Forced to take the love route by a scumbag villain
Chapter 33 Chapter 33
"Your Majesty, Sun Shen will serve the country loyally throughout his life, and he has made many contributions to this country, but it is such a loyal and loyal minister, who was directly surrounded by Prime Minister Wen indiscriminately last night. !"
"One hundred and thirty-five human lives! What Prime Minister Wen did was completely dehumanizing and unconscionable! He acted so bloody and cruelly, how could he ever take the king's law seriously?! How could he ever take His Majesty seriously?! How could he be so heartless and crazy? Your Majesty must severely punish these people to strengthen the government and serve as a warning to others!"
Guan Yan knelt in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, crying bitterly.
Immediately after he finished speaking, a dozen or so veterans of Guan Yan's faction knelt down and shouted in unison: "Your Majesty, please punish me severely!"
Meng Xing sat on the dragon chair, rubbing his temples with some headaches.
Guan Yan opened his mouth and touched it up and down, saying the word "severe punishment" easily. Meng Xingxin said that if he had the ability to punish Wen Rulan, he would not still be carrying a debt of one hundred thousand taels, and would do anything to get ten thousand taels from Wen Rulan.
Furthermore, Guan Yan's so-called cry was just one-sided. Meng Xing felt that the truth of the matter was not that simple.
Meng Xing didn't know who instigated the assassination at the Lantern Festival last night. Wen Rulan didn't tell him anything about the progress of the case. He didn't even know if the assassin was caught or not.
But one thing is undoubted. The assassin's target was Wen Rulan. If Meng Xing hadn't blocked Wen Rulan with his back in time, Wen Rulan might have been hit by the arrow and died.
And who wants Wen Rulan to die the most?In other words, who is the biggest beneficiary after Wen Rulan's death?
Of course it was the group of people kneeling in the hall. General Sun Shen, who was killed by Wen Rulan last night, was also from Guan Yan's faction, and seemed to be some of Guan Yan's most capable disciples.
Is this a coincidence?of course not.There must be no reason for Wen Rulan to suddenly seek out this general Sun Shen. Wen Rulan is a bit vicious, but he is not a lunatic who acts illogically. His cruelty like this shows that the other party must have annoyed him.
Maybe the assassination last night was arranged by Guan Yan and his group, and General Sun Shen was the person in charge of implementing the plan, but the assassination failed, and Wen Rulan used it to operate instead.Meng Xing propped his chin and thought.
While thinking about it, he also yawned, Meng Xing was very tired both mentally and physically.Although the poison was cured, his body was still very weak after losing too much blood. He was about to go to bed, but he was called by this group of people crying to watch their performance.
Especially the acting is not very exciting.
After all the veterans of Guan Yan's faction were crying, his good brother finally stepped forward not to be outdone.
Meng Fan saluted Meng Xing who was sitting on the dragon chair, and then said, "Your Majesty, I think that Prime Minister Wen's actions are very inappropriate..."
Before he could say anything wrong, he was suddenly interrupted by a voice from outside the palace that came from far and near.
"What's wrong?" Wen Rulan asked loudly, with a smile on his face, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.
He stepped into the Hall of Supreme Harmony, his eyes swept over the group of ministers kneeling in the hall one by one, watching Guan Yan and the others couldn't help but stand on end, feeling like they were being targeted by some kind of cold and poisonous snake .
Meng Fan also felt the same way, so he didn't answer immediately.
And Wen Rulan, after scanning the circle of people who took advantage of his absence and wanted to slander him and convict him, she raised her head and looked directly above the hall.
The moment his eyes came into contact with Meng Xing, the coldness that made people shiver disappeared. Wen Rulan felt a little distressed when she saw the blue and white in Meng Xing's eyes. His Majesty was so noisy by this group of people that he didn't even have time to take a good rest.
After feeling distressed, the anger becomes even higher.
"Last night, I and Your Majesty went to the Lantern Festival at night, but they were assassinated by gangsters. Your Majesty was poisoned and almost died. I found out that the assassin was assigned by General Sun Hongtu and Sun Shen. He was such a treacherous traitor, so I led troops to surround him overnight. However, he encountered strong resistance from him, so I had to kill him on the spot." Wen Rulan described the cause and effect of last night in a calm tone. After narrating, he turned to Meng Fan: "His Royal Highness, King Qi, how dare you Ask me what’s wrong with what I’m doing?”
Meng Fan choked when he was asked, not because he was surprised that Wen Rulan found out about Sun Hongtu, but because he didn't expect that it was his idiot brother who was poisoned last night.
The truth of last night was not different from Meng Xing's guess. The assassination was planned by Guan Yan and Meng Fan.
As for the reason... what other reason is there? It's not that Wen Rulan is pushing too hard. If he gets the position of commander of the Forbidden Army, then the capital may really change hands soon.
Wen Rulan's power was so huge that it made them restless, so Meng Fan and Guan Yan spent the whole night together and finally decided to get rid of the other party before he took this position and completely controlled the capital.
In fact, this assassination plan should have been more thorough and foolproof, but things happened too suddenly. Meng Fan was drinking flower wine in Tianxiang Tower last night, but he inadvertently looked down and saw two people who looked very familiar.
One is his idiot brother, and the other is this Prime Minister Wen who has power over the government.
Before he had time to think about why these two people came to the lantern festival together, ecstasy emerged in Meng Fan's heart.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! He and Master Guan were worried about how to find an opportunity to attack Wen Rulan, who was always heavily guarded, so Wen Rulan came to the door himself.
In a crowded place like the Lantern Festival, and Wen Rulan didn't bring too many guards with him when he traveled this time, wouldn't this just send the head to them!
So Meng Fan immediately threw down the oiran who was in his arms, and ran to Guan Taishi's house with his subordinates. After talking about meeting Wen Rulan and Meng Xing, Guan Taishi also thought it was a good time .
Timing is such a thing that can never come back, so we must do it immediately!So they didn't care that they didn't have enough manpower, so they asked Sun Shen to send a subordinate with excellent archery skills.
Assassination, what is needed is suddenness and surprise.It is safe to prepare many people, but sometimes, one is enough.
In their expectation, this skilled archer who has always been able to hit a hundred shots in the army will not miss. Even if he misses and misses the fatal part, as long as the sharp point of the arrow scratches a little skin, the Sun Shen painted on the arrow will come out The poison of snake xanthus brought back from the Western Regions will also kill the other party.
Under the double insurance, this plan should be considered foolproof.
Both Meng Fan and Guan Yan felt that Wen Rulan was doomed this time. Once Wen Rulan died, wouldn't the world belong to them?
As for the little emperor occupying the throne... nothing to fear, just find an excuse to make him fall ill and die.
Of course, it would be great if Meng Xing could be dealt with by the way tonight.So before Sun Shen was about to send someone to assassinate, Meng Fan also specially emphasized: "If it is convenient, you can also send your majesty..."
He made a gesture of slitting his throat. General Sun Shen nodded understandingly and took the order to go back to the house to make arrangements.
Everything was going according to plan, and the cold murderous intent was surging under the noisy lantern festival.
Both Meng Fan and Guan Yan stayed at the Grand Master's Mansion to wait for the news. If General Sun Shen's man is successful, Sun Shen will inform them of the news as soon as possible.
But they waited and waited, but they didn't get the good news about General Sun Shen. Their hearts changed from the joy of being about to become emperor to the disappointment that the plan had probably failed.
Finally, at three o'clock in the afternoon, they received the news about General Sun Shen.
Failed message.
In addition to sending assassins, General Sun Shen also sent a few servants to pretend to be people participating in the lantern festival and watch nearby.
The servants did not dare to follow too closely, especially after Wen Rulan walked to a remote path, it became even more difficult to follow, so they only dared to stare from a distance.
Because of the dark night and the long distance, they couldn't actually see the situation clearly. They only heard the whistle of arrows flying through the air, and then Wen Rulan's shout of ordering to hunt down the assassin.
This drinking sound was mixed with magma-like turbulent anger, and it was full of air, definitely not the voice of an injured person.
The servants realized that the plan had failed, and hurried back to the government to report.General Sun Shen only learned about the failure of the assassination from his servants, because the assassin had already been captured, and he had no chance to report to him whether the mission was completed or not.
Similarly, he didn't know whether the arrow hit anyone. He only knew that Wen Rulan didn't hit the arrow, so he logically thought it was missed.
Therefore, the information reported to Meng Fan and Grand Master Guan was also the result of a missed shot. They had no idea that it was Meng Xing who hit the arrow.
Therefore, Meng Fan was so surprised when he heard Wen Rulan's questioning at this moment, but looking at Meng Xing's face on the dragon chair, he felt that it was not without clues.
Meng Xing's face was pale, and there was a sickness from excessive blood loss. It really looked like he had just been injured.
It's just that Meng Fan didn't pay much attention to the other party's condition, so he didn't notice it. He has never taken this idiot brother seriously. Although Meng Xing is not that stupid, but his brain is not very bright when it comes to reading, Meng Fan still looks down on him and feels that why does this loser sit on the throne? Someone better should be appointed. Just sit down by yourself.
He didn't have any affection for Meng Xing as a brother, otherwise he wouldn't have asked General Sun Shen to kill him smoothly last night.
Meng Fan and Guan Taishi, who also did not expect the arrow to be shot by the little emperor, secretly glanced at each other. The two exchanged opinions with their eyes. Then, Meng Fan said again: "The prime minister said that Sun Shen will be a rebellious traitor." , is there evidence?"
"Evidence?" Wen Rulan sneered: "The assassin himself admitted that he was appointed by General Sun Can, and the arrow that His Majesty shot was poisoned with snake grass. I happened to find snake grass in General Sun Shen's mansion. It's evidence!"
"The assassin's confession may be slanderous. One-sided words are not credible. Besides, I have heard of the snake-tail grass. It is a medicinal herb that grows in the frontiers of the Western Regions. It is rare in the Central Plains, but it does not mean that it is completely absent. And The petals of Houttuynia cordata are highly poisonous, but the branches and leaves have the function of clearing away fire and detoxification. General Sun Shen led soldiers in the frontier, so it is normal to have H. xanthusia cordata in his home. Maybe he wanted to keep it for detoxification , Why does the Prime Minister assume that he is used to poison?" Meng Fan started to fight back.
Guan Yan also came out to support: "His Royal Highness the King of Qi is right! I think that even if General Sun Shen is really suspected of serious matters, he should be taken over by the Ministry of Punishment. The three gongs and nine ministers will examine him and make a careful investigation before making a judgment. If it is really as Prime Minister Wen said, He is a treacherous traitor, and I will clean up the house immediately without Your Majesty taking action!"
He spoke upright words with awe-inspiring righteousness, but then changed the subject: "But Prime Minister Wen stepped in on his behalf, disregarded the laws and regulations of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and made arbitrarily asserted claims. He led troops to slaughter the whole family of Sun's residence overnight. Now that there is no proof of death, Sun Shen will be black or white. , naturally I can only let you slander me!"
Guan Yan was gritting his teeth at the end. He never expected that Wen Rulan would be so cruel.
After learning the news that the plan failed last night, although Guan Yan felt regretful and annoyed, he felt that the situation was not too bad. Because Wen Rulan wanted to investigate, the most she could do was find General Sun Shen. General Sun Shen was not someone to be trifled with. The Huben Army was stationed not far from the outskirts of the city. There were even a hundred personal guards at home, all of whom were highly skilled in martial arts.
Even if Wen Rulan led people to arrest General Sun Shen for investigation on the grounds that he suspected that the other party had assassinated her, as long as General Sun Shen refused to plead guilty, Wen Rulan would soon be acquitted under pressure from the military.
So Guan Yan didn't worry too much about his disciple. Sun Hongtu had been in the army for many years, and he rolled over on the edge of a knife.
The main thing they had to think about was how to carry out the second assassination when Wen Rulan was already vigilant.
This needs to be discussed in the long term. King Qi discussed with him for a while and then left first. The night should have been over because this time the assassination attempt had failed.
But Wen Rulan told them with actions that it was not over.
Neither Meng Fan, Guan Yan, nor even Sun Hongtu himself, who was surrounded by a thousand elite soldiers, did not expect that Wen Rulan did so brilliantly and did not follow the normal procedure of handling the case at all, and led soldiers and horses to surround the Sun Mansion that night.
What's more, he killed more than a hundred people in the house without any care, leaving no one alive.
Guan Yan felt so angry that his chest hurt when he thought of this, his poor disciple!
"Furthermore, as far as I know, the officers and soldiers that Prime Minister Wen brought to surround Sun's residence were the Forbidden Army. The new commander of the Forbidden Army has not yet taken office. If you want to transfer troops, you need the Forbidden Army's Tiger Talisman and the imperial decree. How did the Prime Minister transfer the soldiers? Could it be that he was fake? Pass the imperial decree, you want to plot rebellion!" After questioning one after another, Guan Yan finally uttered the most deadly sentence.
Wen Rulan narrowed his eyes. When he forged the imperial edict to mobilize troops, he expected that Guan Yan would insist on this, but he was not afraid. Guan Yan could only use this matter to make a fuss and cause him some trouble. It was not enough to really hurt his muscles and move his bones.
He responded: "Follow the matter urgently. Your Majesty is in danger. The poison of the snake xanthus is so violent. Naturally, I must immediately catch the person behind the assassin and find an antidote to detoxify your Majesty."
"So, Prime Minister Wen admitted that he forged the imperial edict?" Guan Yan immediately pointed out the fact that Wen Rulan deliberately avoided.
Wen Rulan still did not admit it and only said: "What does Grand Master Guan mean by holding on to me? Could it be that under the circumstances at that time, Grand Master Guan would choose to let His Majesty die of poisoning and let the thieves destroy all the evidence and antidote herbs?" ?”
As soon as his words fell, officials from Wen Rulan's faction also immediately came out to help, questioning Guan Yan's intentions.
Naturally, those on Guan Yan's side were not to be outdone, and the two groups of people quarreled in the hall.
Meng Xing held up his chin and couldn't help but yawned again amidst the noise of the crowd.
Compared with the quarrels of the crowd, the yawning sound was too small, so the one who should have been arguing was still arguing and didn't notice Meng Xing at all.
Only Wen Rulan noticed, he immediately interrupted his argument with Guan Yan, and bowed in Meng Xing's direction: "Your Majesty is tired?"
This sentence finally woke up the other courtiers in the palace. Although the little emperor is a mascot sitting on the dragon chair most of the time, when the two factions are in full swing like now, when it is hard to tell the winner, this mascot Your attitude can determine how the balance of the final outcome will tip.
So everyone quieted down and looked up at the little emperor, wanting to know Meng Xing's attitude.
What kind of attitude could Meng Xing have? He nodded to Wen Rulan first: "I'm a little tired."
Then he said to the ministers in the hall: "The prime minister did not pass on the imperial decree. I agreed to the deployment of troops. The assassination is indeed true. General Sun Shen, as a major suspect, did not cooperate with the investigation and resisted arrest. The prime minister It is also reasonable to kill him on the spot."
He supported his sleepy head and thought for a while, and felt that there should be nothing missing, so he stood up and said, "That's the end of this matter, let's retreat."
After finishing speaking, he didn't care how upset Guan Yan and the others were after hearing the one-sided verdict, and how ugly their faces were, and left on their own.
At first, he walked normally, but not long after leaving the palace gate, he couldn't hold on anymore.
Because of his weakness, he felt a little dizzy, and his figure inevitably became wobbly, but he didn't fall face-up without any image, because the servants following him should come up to support him.
Sure enough, when he almost hit the stone pillar on the side of the road, a pair of hands came to support him.
"Be careful, Your Majesty." The visitor said while supporting Meng Xing's arm, allowing Meng Xing to lean his body's center of gravity on him.
Meng Xing glanced sideways, but it was not the palace attendant he expected, but Wen Rulan, who was still in the palace just now.
Wen Rulan had a smile on her face, and her delicate eyebrows were curved softly, like an elegant and polite gentleman. It was really hard to imagine that he ordered the massacre of more than a hundred people in the Sun family last night without changing his expression.
Meng Xing didn't have any special feelings about this. After all, Wen Rulan was the most poisonous, and he had already experienced it in the last stage of the dream.
He just suddenly wanted to know what Wen Rulan was thinking when she showed such a gentle smile.
He reached out his hand to Wen Rulan, wanting to touch her cheek.
In fact, it is enough to activate the mind-reading skill and touch the wrist. Touching the face is a bit too abrupt and even rude.But Meng Xing's mind was too chaotic at the moment, he looked at Wen Rulan's beautiful face, and subconsciously touched it.
Wen Rulan's eyes showed a little surprise, but even though she was surprised, she stayed there quietly and allowed Meng Xing to behave like Meng Lang to her.
Unfortunately, when Meng Xing's hand reached halfway, he completely lost consciousness and fell on Wen Rulan.
The author has something to say: There will be a mind-reading play that you are looking forward to, see you tomorrow. Although it may not be the same as you imagined
