Chapter 435 Lu Mingxin was assassinated and fell into coma
"Tonight, these clan ministers must be present?"
"Besides, every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite. In such a huge imperial city, there will always be a few rats jumping up and down to disrupt the situation."
"I think Prince Shan and the Fifth Princess won't mind."
The emperor said this and looked up at Prince Shan and the fifth princess.
"What do you two think?"
Upon hearing this, Prince Shan realized that this meant that they must stay.
When he thought of the unusual grunting of Marquis Chongyang just now, Prince Shan knew that they could not stay for long.
But the emperor is obviously planning something?
Prince Shan glanced at the fifth princess, who was originally watching the fun nonchalantly.
Now when I saw the emperor's expression and what he just said, even a fool could understand the meaning of those words.
What's more, they were under the eaves, and there were many forbidden troops outside. Since she and the prince came for "peace" between the two countries, they couldn't make the first move in full view of the public.
Therefore, the best policy is to wait and see what happens.
What the fifth princess could think of, Prince Shan naturally understood, nodded and clasped his fists in salute.
"Gu and the fifth princess follow the arrangements of the Emperor of the Dynasty."
As soon as Prince Shan finished speaking, the temperature in the air dropped again and again, almost to freezing point.
On the surface, what happened tonight was the result of Marquis Chongyang and Hu Hanyu messing up the palace. However, many clan ministers present were all officials of third rank or above. They had been immersed in officialdom for so many years. Who was not a deep-minded old fox? What else could they see?
understandable?
Even if the people present didn't know much about the inside story, the emperor and the queen mother were completely at odds tonight.
Or it should be said that this is not just a farce that messes up the palace, but there is also a huge conspiracy hidden under the farce, which is why the emperor is furious.
"good."
The emperor smiled and glanced at Xiao Mingxuan.
Xiao Mingxuan calmly nodded slightly.
As for the Queen Mother, she clutched the veil in her hand tightly, almost restless.
She had already had a premonition of what the emperor would do next, and her eyes were full of suppressed horror.
——
At the same time, outside the palace.
There are four groups of five people, four teams wearing black uniforms with a yellow auspicious cloud tattooed on their sleeves. Each person has a sword on his waist and a yellow ribbon floating on the hilt of the sword. They line up neatly.
I saw the leader wearing a mask and holding a list in his hand.
"Are these the only ones?"
Opposite the masked man is Pei Tingsong, the minister of Dali Temple, wearing a black cloak.
"Only these few are taking action privately."
"good."
The masked man's voice was cold and emotionless, his legs tightened on the horse's belly, and with a wave of his palm, he disappeared into the darkness like the god of death.
Behind Pei Tingsong, the guard heard the distant thump of horse hooves, and felt his heartbeat beating violently like a war drum.
"My lord, they are--"
"They are the Emperor's Shadow Guards."
After tonight, I don’t know how many glorious gates will be defeated, and how many heads will fall to the ground.
The capital city has completely changed.
——
Imperial Palace, inside Yunying Palace.
"Report."
I saw a forbidden soldier outside the door coming to report.
"Your Majesty, I just found a stabbed and unconscious woman in a utility room in Yunying Palace."
"woman?"
The Queen Mother's eyelids twitched, Xiao Mingxuan looked indifferent, and Luo Jiuli was slightly surprised.
The emperor's eyes were cold and calm, and he glanced at Eunuch Qi beside him.
"yes."
With that said, he told the forbidden army:
"Lead the way."
The Imperial Guard turned around and led the way.
Sure enough, Lu Mingxin, who had been stabbed in the chest and was unconscious, was found in a small, dark utility room covered with spider webs.
"Miss Lu."
Eunuch Qi's orchid fingers were curled up like a standard, and he shouted in a panic.
"Come here, hurry, hurry, get Miss Lu to carry her out."
Immediately, two Forbidden Soldiers came forward and carried the unconscious Lu Mingxin out.
In the side hall, when the Queen Mother and Concubine Hu saw Lu Mingxin, who was covered in blood and unconscious, their pupils shrank tightly.
On the side, Princess An felt as if she was about to leave her soul after seeing Lu Mingxin who was stabbed in the chest and looked pale.
He ran forward staggeringly, tremblingly wanting to reach out, but he didn't dare to, for fear of hurting the person on the ground.
"Mingxin, Mingxin, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please save Mingxin."
"Luo Jiuli."
There was no need for Princess An to intercede, so the emperor immediately looked at Luo Jiuli.
Luo Jiuli was also shocked. Lu Mingxin was obviously knocked unconscious and tied up by Hu Hanyu, and she wanted Nanzhu to send someone to protect him.
But what happened now? How could he be stabbed? Who was stabbed by him?
There was no time to think at the moment.
"Nan Xing, go get the medicine box."
The medicine box is in the carriage outside the palace.
"yes."
Nan Xing almost flew out of the palace.
"Your Majesty, can you find a private room? Miss Lu's injury--"
The wound was on her chest, and with so many men present, she had to consider Lu Mingxin's reputation.
Although Lu Mingxin had done something wrong before, it was her who told the truth about what happened tonight, which allowed Xiao Mingxuan to escape the Queen Mother's conspiracy, and allowed the Emperor and Xiao Mingxuan to play a game within a game, a game within a game.
What's more, Lu Mingxin no longer has any thoughts about Xiao Mingxuan, which can be regarded as a return to the lost path.
The emperor waved his hand, and someone immediately took Lu Mingxin to the next room.
Oil lamps and braziers were all brought in, but even so, the room that had been unoccupied all year round was so cold that my hands hurt from the cold.
After everyone was kicked out, Luo Jiuli took out the hemostatic powder from the small medical bag while sighing, and stopped Lu Mingxin's bleeding first.
The small medical bag contains commonly used medicinal powders and the like.
As for suturing tools and sterilizing and anti-inflammatory medicines, they are all in the medicine box.
She stopped the bleeding and was about to check the wound when Lu Mingxin, who was still unconscious, suddenly opened her eyes.
"you--"
"Shh-"
Lu Mingxin had a pale face and motioned for her to keep her voice down.
"what happened?"
Luo Jiuli asked her with his mouth.
Lu Mingxin moved, causing the wound to hurt, but even so, she still responded with her mouth.
"I'm fine."
Luo Jiuli saw that she didn't care about her injury at all, and he suddenly became suspicious, so he pressed her and went to check the wound.
Sure enough, the injured parts were arranged neatly and in the same direction, but there was still a hesitation injury. Although the puncture was deep, it was deliberately controlled not to hit the vital parts.
Luo Jiuli looked at the wound, then looked at Lu Mingxin in shock.
"You deliberately?"
Lu Mingxin bit her lip and nodded.
"help me."
She looked at Luo Jiuli pleadingly.
Tonight, no matter what, the Queen Mother and the Hu family must not be allowed to stand up. Otherwise, once the Queen Mother knows that she betrayed Changchun Palace, she will harm the entire Prince An's palace.
