Chapter four hundred and sixty-ninth endure for a while
A ray of sword light struck towards Xiao Yujue's face.
The guard who was accompanying him immediately drew his steel sword to protect him, but was killed by the assassin who forced his way in.
Xiao Yujue himself has experienced hundreds of battles. When encountering an assassin, he remained calm and jumped up to avoid the assassin's attack.
Both sides fired dozens of moves in succession.
"You are so brave, you dare to assassinate me?"
"Hmph, Xiao Yujue, don't forget that the reason why you are in the position you are today is all thanks to the help of King Zhennan. Now that you have forgotten the hardships you had as soon as you became king, damn it!"
Xiao Yujue was startled, and suddenly a surge of anger surged into her heart.
"Who are you?"
The assassin no longer answered, but stabbed Xiao Yujue several more times, forcing Xiao Yujue to retreat in a row, looking extremely embarrassed.
The imperial guards rushed in, and a group of assassins immediately retreated to the window in a well-trained manner.
"Please, Your Majesty, be kind to the person who accompanied you in your struggle; otherwise... he can help you ascend to the throne, or he can pull you down."
After saying that, he jumped out of the window and left.
Xiao Yujue's face was ashen and she was going crazy.
"Come back to me alive. I want to see how many heads these people have grown."
However, when the Imperial Guard caught up with these assassins, they were either killed by the Imperial Guard or committed suicide.
Xiao Yujue looked at these dead assassins and felt that they did look familiar. After verification, they were indeed Mu Jingrui's men.
"Your Majesty, the prince probably feels sorry for his sister, so that's why..."
Seeing that Xiao Yujue's face was as gloomy as if he could squeeze out drops of water, the head chamberlain did not dare to continue even after he had finished speaking.
Feeling sorry for your sister?
Xiao Yujue understands the relationship between the Mu brothers and sisters very well.
Mu Jingyan has a straightforward personality and no scheming. Mu Jingrui really loves this sister. However, since Mu Jingyan is already married, as the elder brother of his mother's family, he should not interfere, let alone...
Xiao Yujue frowned. He thought that during his most difficult years, Mu Jingrui went through life and death for him, so he decided to suppress the matter for the time being and wait until Mu Jingrui comes back.
However, things did not develop as he imagined.
When the court went to court the next day, the news of Xiao Yujue's assassination had spread. The officials in the court demanded that Mu Jingrui and Mu Jingyan be severely punished, otherwise the majesty of the royal family would not be established.
Xiao Yujue is under unprecedented pressure.
In order to demonstrate law and order, he ordered the temporary closure of Mu Jingyan's palace, and issued an imperial edict, asking the commander of the imperial army to personally escort Mu Jingrui back to Beijing.
Mu Jingyan was extremely shocked when he heard the news.
She wanted to plead for her brother, but as soon as she reached the door of the palace, the guards stopped her.
"Queen, the Emperor has an order. You cannot step out of the palace without his permission. Please come back."
Mu Jingyan suppressed his worry and anger and said, "I just went to see the emperor and will come back after a few words."
With that said, he was about to walk out.
The Imperial Guards immediately drew out their steel swords.
Mu Jingyan paused, then became angry and shouted: "What? You still want to fight with me?"
"Queen, my subordinates and others are just following orders. Please don't make things difficult for your subordinates. Please go back."
"you……"
Mu Jingyan had a hot temper and saw that the imperial guard refused to give in at all. When he was about to take action, he was stopped by the nanny on the side.
Mammy forcibly took Mu Jingyan back to the room and persuaded her: "Queen, please don't be angry. They are indeed following orders. You can't be tough with them."
Mammy handed Mu Jingyan a cup of ginseng tea and consoled him: "Your Majesty is the emperor's most trusted minister and right-hand man. They have a very good personal relationship and have shared weal and woe together. In both public and private matters, the emperor will treat him with special eyes."
treat."
"Queen, we have no way of knowing what is going on outside now, but you have to believe in the prince and the emperor. Since the emperor asked you to stay in the palace, you can stay in the palace with peace of mind. If you make things worse, you can
It just lets some people with ulterior motives get an advantage."
Mu Jingyan froze, and the look in his eyes towards his grandma also changed.
Yes, Mu Jingrui has been on the battlefield for a long time. What kind of storms has he not seen?
How could he send someone to assassinate her or teach Xiao Yujue a lesson just because she was punished by Xiao Yujue?
Someone must have framed this matter.
As long as Mu Jingrui returns to the capital to meet Xiao Yujue and explain the misunderstanding clearly, won't everything be fine?
Mu Jingyan took a deep breath and decided to hold back for the time being and wait until Mu Jingrui came back.
"Here, drink this bowl of medicine."
Shangguan Wan Ning walked into Mu Jingrui's study carrying a medicine bowl.
Mu Jingrui put down the book in his hand, took the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp. The bitter taste made him frown involuntarily.
"Hold out your hand."
Shangguan Wan Ning took Mu Jingrui's pulse and her expression gradually relaxed.
"Take a few more patches of medicine and the poison in your body will be completely detoxified."
Mu Jingrui secretly breathed a sigh of relief and asked curiously: "Ning'er, when you were in the concentration camp, you and so many doctors didn't develop an antidote. Why now..."
Shangguan Wan Ning's expression was gloomy, with a thick layer of sadness between her brows.
"Master told me before he died."
Shangguan Wan Ning stood up and walked to the window, watching the white cloud drifting by in the sky, and suddenly thought of the bright sunshine in Yaowang Valley.
"My master took me to escape that night. When he was fighting the enemy, he asked me to remember the moves he used. In fact... it was a prescription."
"prescription?"
"When I was in Yaowang Valley, my master also tried to teach me some self-defense skills, but I was too stupid and couldn't learn them at all. He was so angry with me that he couldn't even eat. In order to make me remember the moves, he taught me those moves
Tell me by naming the drug..."
Shangguan Wan Ning's eyes were covered with tears.
She never imagined that the game between their master and apprentice would now become her last words to save her life.
"Ning'er, don't be sad." Mu Jingrui stepped forward and hugged Shangguan Wan Ning into his arms, comforting him softly, "You can understand your master's good intentions. He is knowledgeable and will also feel gratified."
"But the master will never come back to life again."
Shangguan Wan Ning grabbed Mu Jingrui's lapel and leaned against his chest, unable to hold back her tears.
Lu Xiangzi chose to commit suicide at the last moment because he did not want Sun Jinyao to bear a lifelong burden on his heart.
However……
Sun Jinyao finally failed Lu Xiangzi's hard work.
"who?"
Mu Jingrui noticed someone outside the door. When he let go of Shangguan Wan Ning, he jumped up and opened the door. He saw a figure flash past and quickly disappear.
His heart sank involuntarily.
"Jingrui, what's wrong?" Shangguan Wanning saw that Mu Jingrui didn't chase him, but just stood there in a daze, and asked, "Do you know who it is?"
