male princess

The queen's face turned pale and her body trembled. She pointed at Xi Haotang with a trembling voice and said, "You, are you forcing your mother to die? Isn't the mother doing this for you, otherwise, you think you moved out of the palace?" Can you survive?"

"But that's not what I want." Xi Haotang knelt forward and took two steps: "Mother, that is not only the supreme right, which is admired by all people. The greater the power, the greater the responsibility, and the greater the burden. How can you For your own selfish desires, impose your wishes on me, disregarding the people of the world, disregarding the safety of the country. The queen mother..."

The queen looked at him, speechless for a long time, with a complex expression on her face, suddenly sighed and said: "Okay, the queen mother agrees to you. The queen mother is all for you. Since you don't want to, what can the queen mother do. Tang'er , put down the dagger first." The queen said, stepped forward two steps, and reached for Xi Haotang's dagger.

Seeing that Xi Haotang was fine, the old emperor seemed relieved.Xi Yincang's eyes changed, but he had been paying attention to Song Tao's actions, and it was too late.The queen suddenly grasped Xi Haotang's dagger, and with the other hand pressed hard on the back of his neck, he knocked him unconscious.

The eunuch on the side was so startled that he couldn't make a sound. When did this queen become so strong?

As soon as Xi Yincang's body was about to move, Song Tao stepped forward, shouted and shouted at the same time, a group of soldiers rushed in, surrounded the old emperor and several people, pointed their swords directly.

Xi Yincang's eyes turned cold, and he rushed to the old emperor's body.At this time, Xi Haotang was taken aside by the two in shock.

The eunuch was so frightened that he almost peed his pants, and his voice was unsteady: "You, you, you are so big, so courageous, are you going to rebel too?"

Unexpectedly, no one paid him any attention at all, and no one even gave him a look.

"My lord, your hidden guards can't get through. They've already been dragged outside." Song Tao remained expressionless, his voice deep and indifferent.

Xi Yincang glanced at him. In such a situation, he still looked aloof, noble and inviolable. He didn't panic at all: "Vice General Song, this king sees that you are a talent, so I will give you one last chance. If you are wise, maybe this king I can ask the emperor to keep you."

"Thank you, my lord, for your appreciation." Song Tao replied, "However, Song Tao has already reached this point, and there is no room for maneuver."

"That's enough, don't let him procrastinate." The queen's gentle voice sounded, still unhurried, "Your Majesty, I don't know where the jade seal is placed? The sky is about to dawn, and it is not good to delay the morning court."

The emperor looked at Xi Haotang, who was pushed aside, and then at the queen: "Tang'er is a good boy. Although he is still younger than his elder brother, and has never been involved in political affairs, his mind is inevitably simple. However, he is a bright boy. Dayi, a person who knows Dali can be calm and rational in situations. If you cultivate and induce him, you will be a wise king. Even if you are not like this, I have considered passing the throne to him. If you are only for him, I may be able to turn a blind eye close your eyes. but

No, you are not, Tang'er is just your pawn, all the high-sounding things you say are just to cover up your own ambitions, or in other words, cover up your family's ambitions.Queen, you have disappointed me so much.How could you become like this?Humans, indeed, are never satisfied. "

The queen was finally moved, and couldn't keep her composure on her face anymore. She took a deep breath, seemed to force herself to calm down, and said aloud: "Yes, I have changed. Since you ascended the throne, I I have changed since the day I became a queen, the reason why I am like this is actually caused by the emperor, isn't it?"

"Forget it, I won't give you the jade seal." The emperor sighed again: "As a queen, you have colluded with other countries and plotted against others. Now that the evidence is convincing, what else do you have to say?"

Hearing the old emperor's words, the queen was stunned for a while, and then smiled softly: "Your majesty, you have fallen ill again, right? The medicine given to you by my concubine should not be when you are unconscious. In this way, the courtiers and concubines no longer have any scruples, Deputy General Song, send someone to search and find Yuxi."

"Yes." Song Tao replied, and with a wave of his hand, someone stepped forward immediately.

"Your Majesty, you and I have been married for many years, and it is really difficult for the concubines. You stay in this palace and enjoy your life, and the concubines will send someone to take care of you." The queen turned her head and stopped looking at the few people in the middle. He continued: "As for, Cang'er, I gave you the opportunity. Since you don't appreciate it, don't blame me. Come and send the prince off."

The people around were about to step forward, and the queen's meaning could not be more clear, obviously she wanted to put the old emperor under house arrest, and the rest of the people would not stay.

In the dark, Xi Yin clenched the dagger in his waist, his expression remained unchanged, and he looked coldly at the people coming around, his breath suddenly changed, almost freezing the air.The people around were forced by his aura and suffocated.

"Go." Someone yelled, and everyone seemed to be drawn, and the opportunity was touched, and they all rushed over.

Xi Yincang drew out his dagger, and shouted behind him: "Protect the emperor." Then he fought with the crowd.Xi Yincang was alone, if he killed one, another would make up for him, and soon he was covered in blood.All the hidden guards he brought were blocked outside, and those who stayed here were dead or wounded. Just like what Song Tao said, no matter how powerful the dark guards were, the number of them was much worse than the opponent's after all.

Xi Yincang didn't know how many people he killed. Gradually, he seemed to have returned to the original battlefield, his eyes were red, and his attacks became more and more fierce, like a demon from hell, completely different from usual.The emperor's bedroom has become a Shura hell.

Song Tao had been watching, but he didn't do anything himself. He didn't know what was on his mind. Once a group of people were killed, he immediately sent orders, as if he wanted to exhaust Xi Yincang like this.

Seeing that, Xi Yincang was almost insane, and his physical strength was gradually exhausted. The queen was watching this scene in the corner, and almost fainted, but she did not leave. Beside her, she fainted

Xi Haotang.

Xi Yincang's consciousness gradually became blurred, and he swung the short sword in his hand mechanically. He could hear the shouts of killing on the battlefield in his ears, and his breathing became heavier and heavier.

"Yin Cang!" Suddenly, a soft cry came into his ears, like thunder, which shocked him all over.Immediately, a swollen and deformed face appeared in front of his eyes. Even so, he recognized him in an instant, as if a clear spring poured into his mind, and his consciousness was instantly awake.

"Yincang, are you okay? It's me." Seeing Xi Yincang's terrifying look, Zhi Luo was terrified, grabbed his sleeve, and shook it twice until he saw the way Xi Yincang looked at him From cold to gentle.

Xi Yincang raised his head and found that someone was blocking the other party. He took a breath, squeezed Zhi Luo's hand, and panted close to his ear: "If you don't come again, you will be a widow."

Zhi Luo saw that his whole body was covered in blood, he had already lost his sense of restraint, and said anxiously: "Where did you get hurt, so much blood, I, I, I brought Shuranye too."

"It's not my blood." Xi Yincang grabbed him: "Where is the thing?"

After hearing this, Zhi Luo was relieved, then gritted her teeth, and cursed: "These grandsons dare to fight against you with a sea of ​​people, and I can't spare them." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, took out a soldier talisman from his bosom, and handed it to Xi Yin Cang: "I brought all the people, they are waiting outside, Nuo, here you are."

"You bastard, what did you do? Who is he and how did he come in? With so many of you guarding outside, you didn't stop him." The queen suddenly pointed at Zhi Luo and cursed.

It's a pity that none of her people have the time to respond to her now, even Song Tao was forced to complain unceasingly by Chi Yan at this time.

"Hmph! Sister Shou, listen to the commotion outside. Those people want to stop me. It's 100 years too early." Zhi Luo suddenly rushed to the Queen in a flash, stretched out her slender fingers, and grabbed him. Her neck whispered: "You want to kill me man, you dead woman! I really misjudged you earlier."

"You, cough, who are you?" The queen's complexion changed continuously, her face turned red from being pinched by Zhi Luo, and she coughed continuously.

Zhi Luo ignored her, and shouted at the people who were fighting with her: "Stop, if you don't stop, I will strangle her to death."

Xi Yincang was a little too late to react, he didn't expect Zhi Luo to restrain the queen in such a way, and the corners of his eyebrows raised indistinctly.The eunuch at the back quietly stretched out his head to have a look, clutching his chest, the expression on his face was even more elegant, but it seemed that he had been stimulated too much this night, and seeing the situation now, he didn't shout as much as before. screaming.

At this moment, Song Tao finally had an expression on his face. When Zhi Luo rushed in with a few masters and handed the soldier talisman to Xi Yincang, he already knew something was wrong, and now he could only stop and retreat to the aside.The queen is gone, so what is he doing, he never thought of becoming the emperor himself.He took another look at Zhi Luo, there were so many people guarding him, how he came in, and how he got to the queen's side, he didn't see it at all, as if he appeared there out of thin air.

Both sides

The people in the fight had been fighting fiercely, but they didn't expect it to stop like this, and they were a little surprised.

Xi Yincang coughed, showed his military amulet, and turned to look at the old emperor.The old emperor said in a deep voice: "Come here, Song Tao intends to rebel, and I will take it down. Anyone who is bewitched by him should lay down his weapons, sincerely repent, and he will be punished according to the circumstances. Those who resist will be killed without mercy."

Immediately, someone came up and held Song Tao back. Song Tao's face was ashen at this moment, and he no longer resisted. All his sons dropped their weapons and knelt on the ground obediently.

The emperor looked at it and ordered: "Cang'er, let people patrol the places and send people to deal with this matter. The secret guards will stay in the palace temporarily and take strict precautions. In addition, send people to arrest the third prince and the others involved , waiting to be dealt with."

"Yes." Xi Yincang agreed, waved his hand, called a person, gave a few instructions in a low voice, the person turned and went out, and in a blink of an eye, all the people in the bedroom were taken away, and the corpse was also taken out.But the ground was still stained with blood.At this time, only the old emperor, Xi Yincang, Zhi Luo and the queen were left, as well as Xi Haotang and the eunuchs beside the emperor.The rest retreated.

The old emperor squeezed the space between his eyebrows, sat down on the chair, and coughed again.

Zhi Luo pinched the empress, and she didn't let go of her hands. The empress' face became more and more ugly at this time, and she kept opening her mouth and panting.Zhi Luo used force with the other hand to pull him closer to the old emperor, Xi Yincang tugged him, and said softly: "Let go."

Zhiluo let go of her hand, the queen's body went limp and she collapsed on the ground, coughing.

"Queen, do you still have something to say to me." The emperor looked down at her and asked softly, with a bit of bitterness in his voice.

The empress took a few breaths, her tears were choking, she stroked her chest, suddenly smiled and said: "The concubine has nothing to say, take care of the emperor." As she spoke, she wiped her mouth, not knowing what she had eaten, her throat moved, Already swallowed.

Zhi Luo stared at her eyes, thinking this trick again, why is it always like this, where did she find the poison.

The poison developed very quickly, the queen's face turned blue, she spat out a mouthful of blood, and said with difficulty: "This has nothing to do with Tang'er. He, doesn't, know..."

"I understand." The emperor didn't move, and there was no expression on his face, but pain and helplessness were faintly revealed in his eyes.

The Queen opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but before she could speak again, she couldn't catch her breath, and spit out a big pool of black blood, before dying.

"Yincang, you go to draw up an imperial decree, saying that the third prince was punished on the spot for treason, and the empress was assassinated and died in confusion. I am deeply saddened. The whole country mourns for three days. I will bring it to me later, so that the Ministry of Rites can prepare for the empress's funeral." .Out there, go and have a look. Find someone to report to me. First go and see if Ting'er is okay."

"Your majesty, I'm going right now. You should take a rest first. You will have to go to court early after dawn, and then you need to come forward to stabilize the situation." Xi Yincang looked at the old emperor's face, feeling a little worried.

"Cough, cough, cough!" The old emperor coughed again: "Well, let's go."

"You wait for the emperor to rest first, and I'll find someone to clean up outside." Xi Yincang ordered the eunuch, pulled Zhiluo out, and sent his confidants to deal with the blood stains on the queen and the palace, and sent someone to help Xi Haotang out.

Zhi Luo followed Xi Yincang out of the emperor's bedroom and rushed out of the palace, Zhi Luo said: "Yin Cang, the old emperor's expression is not right, is there a problem, I let Shu Ranye also enter the palace, do you want to have a look."

Xi Yincang frowned, and said: "The queen has really moved her hands and feet. I just said it in the hall. But there is no time now, and it will be dawn soon, so let's wait until the morning."
