In the main hall, as soon as Murong Yunfei's "unbridled" words came out, a pin dropped at this moment, and it was estimated that one could hear them clearly.
When she heard the other party say that her hair was half black and half white, Queen Mother Xie subconsciously reached out to touch her hair. When she heard the old man's voice again, she almost became angry and reprimanded: "Why did the Wei family save you?"
, you are such an uneducated prince, what are you talking about?"
If they were the courtiers of Dahui State, they would have been silent for a long time if they heard the Empress Dowager Xie reprimanding them like this.
But how could Murong Yunfei, the other prince, care about this? He smiled coldly and said: "My prince's upbringing may be different from that of Da Hui. After all, our barbarian clan only pays attention to revenge when there is hatred and repaying injustice when there is injustice."
Queen Mother Xie was choked by him doing this in front of everyone, and her delicate makeup was a little chapped. She was so angry that she pointed her hand and said, "All the men in General Wei's family have died in the battlefield, how could you make up such a story?"
lie!"
She said this as if Murong Yunfei was furious because of how disrespectful she was to the Great Hui God of War.
but……
Murong Yunfei frowned and looked at the Queen Mother Xie with a mocking look, "Is the Queen Mother an old fool? How else could she have made the same mistake as him?"
As he spoke, he pointed his finger at Zhong Ling, who was being restrained on the ground and unable to move, "When did this prince say that the person who helped me was a man?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone nodded inwardly, feeling like they suddenly understood.
But soon, they came to their senses.
This is not a man, that is a woman, then this woman...
Ah, this can't be...
At this moment, Chu Kuo also thought of something, and looked in a certain direction with his eyes like quenched poison.
Feeling the various looks coming overtly and covertly, Zhang Qingjiu couldn't help but sigh in her heart. Although she still wanted to play with these people for a while, Chu Lan had been gone for so long, and she
If we don't get over it, it really won't make sense.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qingjiu stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the Queen Mother, I am a humble minister who met the seriously injured eldest prince on the road and happened to save him. I didn't expect that he had such a noble status.
"
Murong Yunfei: "..."
If someone hadn't rescued me from a secret prison, I would have almost believed it sincerely.
Chu Kuo: "..."
If I hadn't still had a letter from the Zhong family in my hand, which said that Murong Yunfei was missing, he would have even doubted whether his memory was wrong.
She said this so sincerely that all the officials in the court did not have the slightest suspicion. They only sighed that their Lord Zhang was really... the one who disrupted the situation and was also the first person to reverse the situation!
"It turns out to be Zhang Aiqing." Chu Wei seemed surprised and nodded approvingly, "Then..."
Zhang Qingjiu took a deep breath and saluted again, "Your Majesty, since the truth of this matter has been revealed, I would like to ask Your Majesty to retreat from the court first and take the Queen out from Dali Temple first. As for the rest, we will discuss it later.
."
Normally, Zhang Qingjiu's outrageous remarks would only arouse criticism from the courtiers, but today, miraculously, no one spoke up to object.
Others didn't notice, but Chu Wei heard that her tone was much more anxious than usual, and his heart immediately tightened, "I will retreat from the court today, and we will discuss other matters tomorrow. As for Zhong Ling... we will take him into custody first, and we will interrogate him later.
The post of Minister of Dali Temple is temporarily taken over by Mo Dianxian. You must get to the bottom of this matter for me!"
He almost forgot...his son went to Dali Temple to pick someone up.
At the entrance of Dali Temple, two groups of people were confronting each other in separate chambers.
Zhong Xiu looked at Chu Lan not far away, a hint of ridicule flashed in his eyes, thinking that the Eighth Prince really had a clever plan to let him stay here, and someone really came.
And what I didn’t expect was that the person who came was actually the prince!
Judging from this posture, the situation in the court must be a foregone conclusion, otherwise how could he only bring a group of guards from the Prince's Mansion?
If he could anger Chu Lan, make him take action, and take advantage of the chaos to take his head, wouldn't this be a great achievement?
Thinking of this, Zhong Xiu laughed wildly and raised the long knife in his hand, "What does your highness mean by this? Why did you bring the guards from the East Palace to surround Dali Temple? Is this move inappropriate?"
Feng Zhi glanced at Chu Lan beside him, with a bit of anxiety in his eyes, "Your Highness, do you need to report to Dali Temple? Please leave as soon as possible!"
Hearing these words, Zhong Xiu sneered, with a trace of crazy murderous intent flashing in his eyes, "Your Highness, as a city protector, I am responsible for guarding the safety of the imperial city. How dare you give in without the emperor's orders?"
His son, Zhong Qingyun, is dead! Don’t think that the matter is kept secret, he doesn’t know that the person behind it is Chu Lan!!
"Zhong Xiu, you are so brave! How dare you not listen to His Highness?" Huo Wu's face darkened. He was wearing white armor today and pointed the red tassel gun in his hand forward. The gentleness in the past was gone. It was so threatening.
There was a fighting spirit in the momentum.
After all, people who have experienced fighting on the battlefield cannot be compared to these imperial city guards.
Zhong Xiu was startled by the sudden momentum and subconsciously took half a step back. After reacting, he couldn't help but become furious, "Your Highness? Can the son of a collaborator and traitor become a prince?"
"What did you say?"
Two scoldings sounded at the same time, one far away and one close.
Hearing this voice, Huo Wu was startled and turned around suddenly.
Outside the vast sea of people, a figure wearing white clothes was riding a horse, with black hair flying, a face as cold as ice, and a large black bow in his hand that was as full as a full moon.
It was too late to say that, but it was too soon. I could only hear the sound of "Zheng——", and the feather sword with black feathers flew through the air like a meteor, and the sound of breaking through the air reached my ears.
I saw the arrow whizzing past at a hundred steps, and finally inserted into Zhong Xiu's shoulder with a "chi" sound. As the war horse raised its hooves and neighed, Zhong Xiu wailed and fell to the ground with a "bang".
Before everyone could react, the figure on horseback flew close to Zhong Xiu. As soon as the bow and arrow in his hand reached it, his voice was colder than ever before, "If I hadn't kept you for punishment, you wouldn't have had to live your life today."
Keep!"
Perhaps this reversal happened so suddenly that no one could react for a moment. When they came to their senses, Zhong Xiu's subordinates immediately became excited. Some of them shouted, "Come here! There's a sneak attack! Quick, get it."
Get off her!"
The scene instantly became extremely chaotic. Seeing that those people were about to rush forward with swords, Zhang Qingjiu smiled coldly and was about to use the bow and arrow in his hand, but suddenly stopped suddenly.
At this moment, a thin figure suddenly stepped forward, the strong wind blew, and his voice sounded like a demon from hell, "Who dares to touch her!"
