Eunuch Hu bowed and echoed. If you want to read novels, go to www.
Ouyang Huan said nothing more. Although there was a vague uneasiness in his heart, he did not intend to delve into what the uneasiness was. With his hands behind his back, Ouyang Huan only said coldly: "Go to the Jinluan Palace" and left Yunhua without looking back.
palace.
Eunuch Hu, the eunuchs, maids, and bodyguards also hurriedly followed the emperor towards the Jinluan Hall where civil and military officials met.
In the morning, the ministers were discussing with the emperor about various recent events in Bixin Kingdom. Suddenly, a loud arrow passed over the heads of the ministers and almost hit the emperor's throne. It was only a small distance away.
Shot the emperor in the head.
Emperor Ouyang Huan was startled and almost fell off the dragon throne. The imperial guards on the side surrounded Ouyang Huan, forming an airtight barrel shape to protect him.[
But Ouyang Huan's face turned pale with fear, but he said with trembling words: "Where did the assassin come from who was so bold that he dared to shoot an arrow on my head? We must find him and cut him into pieces."
The leader of the royal guards agreed, but did not dare to leave the emperor's side. He only said to the emperor: "Your Majesty, I apologize for my lack of protection. Your Majesty, it is better to retreat from the court first."
When His Highness's civil and military officials saw that the emperor was attacked, they were all shocked and didn't know what to do. If they could kill the emperor, it was even easier to kill these civil and military officials. They were afraid that the arrow would find them, so the ministers started to run away with their heads in their hands.
Extremely embarrassed.
The only one who seemed relatively calm was probably the fourth prince Ouyang Xun. Although he didn't know who did it, he might have been happy to see Ouyang Huan killed by an assassin, so that he wouldn't have to go to any trouble.
Already.
It's a pity that the assassin's arrow skills were too inaccurate. He didn't kill the man, but just scared him badly. He felt very sorry for this.
However, he discovered another problem. There seemed to be something stuck on the arrow, which was not seen by anyone.
Ouyang Xun hurriedly walked up to the dragon throne, and under the surprised eyes of everyone, Ouyang Xun pulled out the arrow and took a piece of paper from it.
Unfolding the paper, there were a few words on it: "If you want to save the second prince, you must exchange Lin Rou'er, otherwise the second prince will die!"
Ouyang Xun read out loud what was written on the paper. Everyone was stunned on the spot, and even the guards surrounding the emperor dropped their hands surrounding him.
Ouyang Huan was even more furious. He took the note from Ouyang Xun's hand and read it carefully several times.
That's right, that's what it says on it, Lin Rou'er is exchanged for the second prince's life.
"Who did this? Who would threaten me with Xing'er's life, and actually ask me to exchange Lin Rou'er for him."
"Father, I feel that my eldest brother is the most suspicious. He clearly says he doesn't like Lin Rou'er, but in fact, she is the one he cares about the most, so he speaks for her several times. This time, maybe it's his own plan. He
Knowing that the second brother liked Lin Rou'er, he used him to threaten my father. My father must not be fooled by him. Lin Rou'er must be killed, otherwise there will be endless troubles."
Ouyang Xun analyzed.
"Is this really the case? But if it is really Lin Rouer's accomplices who want to rescue her from the palace, so they took this step, what should I do?" Ouyang Huan felt anxious and had a mouthful of blood in his stool.
It gushed out, causing everyone to kneel down in shock.
