Chapter 227 Meeting at the Peak
Chapter 227 Meeting at the top
Author: Pony Crossing the Bridge
Qin Tieniu disdained to use such a method to win this victory, but he also knew very well that treating the other person the same way he did was the most satisfying way to get revenge.
"Okay, I will give you a chance. Take this." Qin Tieniu casually took out the fatigue-relieving elixir that Qin Lu had prepared for himself, and asked the betrayer to take it calmly.
The man kneeling on the ground was frightened to death when he saw the elixir in Qin Tieniu's hand. He was still shaking, and his eyes were even more frightened and he didn't know what to do. "Master, is this?"
"Take this medicine and help me find out the prince's movements. If you turn against him, you will bleed to death from your orifices in three days."
"Master, no..."
"Why, you don't want to?" Zhang Deshan immediately put the knife on his neck away, and the coldness passed through his neck and went straight to the bottom of his heart. The man took the medicine with trembling hands without hesitation and drank it directly.
"Only I have this antidote. Whether you can live or not depends on you." Qin Tieniu said this with gloomy eyes, and waved to Zhang Deshan to take him out.
Qin Tieniu's plan was not disrupted. He still acted according to the plan, but pretended that he was seriously injured in an ambush and could not enter the palace.
When the prince received such news, he immediately relaxed his vigilance, and even the imperial concubine breathed a sigh of relief, "Since he has been injured, as long as we send people to guard him tightly and not let him enter the palace, then the rest will be easy to talk about.
"
"yes."
The people below heard the order and hurried down to prepare. The master asked not to let that group of people enter the palace, so he concentrated most of his forces at the entrance of the palace, but he didn't know that this saved Qin Tieniu a lot of trouble and effort.
Zhang Deshan sent people to attack all other gaps. By the time the prince reacted, it was too late.
"Trash, a bunch of trash." The sky gradually became brighter, and he looked at the entire imperial city under the morning light. Although the sun had not risen yet, for some reason he suddenly felt that Pei Yueyan was coming, so he followed
The sun rises normally.
"What are you going to do?"
The imperial concubine also stayed up all night. She originally thought that after this night, everything would be over, but she didn't expect that this was just the beginning. That damned Pei Yiyan actually came back.
The prince came to his senses when he heard his mother's voice. The mother and son looked at each other, but neither of them said a word.
"Concubine, Prince, what should we do? The palace gate is about to..."
"What do you want soon?"
"Nine, Ninth Prince..."
"What Ninth Prince? He's just like Mr. Nomura..." The prince didn't wait for his subordinate to finish his words, and threw the tea cup in his hand directly.
The subordinate wanted to hide, but thinking that he would be even more angry if he avoided the prince, he could only bite the bullet and accept the tea cup.
A cup of hot water flowed down the top of his head. He grimaced in pain and could not even say a word of pain. Mixed with the water of tea, there was blood flowing down.
"unlucky……"
The imperial concubine looked extremely ugly when she saw the blood. She waved to her nanny and drove her subordinates away. The room was clean again. The imperial concubine looked at the prince who was pacing back and forth and said, "Okay, where are the backup plans you have left? Wait until the palace door opens.
, when the people see Pei Yiyan appear outside the palace, they can no longer hide it."
"Mother, the child knows." The prince came to the imperial concubine with eyes vacant, "Where is the father?"
"Even if Pei Yiyan really comes back, your father will not deprive you of the crown prince position, but..."
"But what?" Her mother-in-law stopped mid-sentence, but the prince was frightened and nervous to the point that her heart was in her throat.
The concubine's fair arm instantly rested on the prince's strong arm, "Prince, if Pei Zhengyan really stands at the city gate tomorrow, then tomorrow night will be the day of his death."
"Concubine, what do you mean?"
"Kill them all."
"Understood, let's make arrangements for the child now." Knowing that he couldn't stop him today, Pei Yiyan was bound to break through all their defense lines, but so what, their mother and son would never let him live.
An hour later, Qin Tieniu led a large force to the palace gate. When the guards saw Pei Yiyan, they thought they had seen it wrong. Although many rumors in the city during this time said that the famous Ninth Prince was not dead but still alive, but
As royal guards, they dare not comment.
But they never thought that they would actually see the honor of the Ninth Prince again. Few of them participated in the palace changes back then, but Pei Yiyan's name was known to everyone.
"Is this, is this the Ninth Prince back then?"
"Is it really the prince?" A relatively young man among the guards rubbed his eyes, fearing that he had seen it wrong. He looked at the commander and saw that the commander had no expression even when he saw several princes in the past.
At this time, he stood upright and saluted the dismounted man, "Nine...Prince? Is it really you?"
This commander was older than Qin Tieniu. He had guarded the prince as a member of the Royal Forest Army back then, so he naturally had more affection than other guards.
But after the palace coup, his position as commander of the Royal Forest Army was dismissed due to limited ability, and he was directly transferred to the gate of the palace as the commander of the guards.
Although they are both commanders, their natures are very different. If he had not thought that the prince was not dead, he would not have persisted until now and finally saw the prince again after many years.
Pei Yiyan looked at the commander for a moment and recognized him.
In fact, Zhang Deshan had told him before, saying that those who supported him back then were either dead or injured. Even those who were not dead or injured had a bad end. They were either demoted or demoted. This commander was Pei Yiyan's side at the time.
His capable man, he was lucky that he was not killed.
Zhang Deshan said that he wanted to go with Pei Yiyan at that time, but thinking that he had such a brother under his command, he finally chose to endure the humiliation and bear the burden, and has been inquiring about Pei Yiyan over the years.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Qin Tieniu didn't say much, just gave him a simple look. He knew that was enough...
The commander's nose was sore. If it weren't for his status as a big man, he would have shed tears. His red eyes held back the tears and said, "Your Majesty, please."
They all made way for Qin Tieniu and personally escorted him to the tower.
The two of them were in front of each other, and the others were separated by some distance, which gave them time to talk about old times.
The commander kept staring at Qin Tieniu's back. The prince looked a lot thinner after many years of separation, but he was quite energetic. Thinking of the scene of practicing martial arts together back then, he couldn't help but laugh naively.
"What laughing?"
"My lord, this is my subordinate. I didn't expect to see you again?"
"What, you thought I was dead?"
"No, no, this subordinate is not..."
