Morbid pet

Chapter 308 Failed Assassination

The coachman quickly turned around and sped towards the palace gate.

Chang Le's heart was beating loudly in the carriage. She never expected that things would turn out like this. It was impossible for Xie Zhao not to pursue the case. The only way now was to go back quickly, otherwise things would be bad when Xie Zhao got angry. .

Changle's concerns are absolutely correct.

At this moment, Xie Zhao has returned to Qianyuan Hall. He is sitting on the dragon chair with a gloomy face.

There were two rows of officials standing below. They all knelt on the ground and did not dare to look up at Xie Zhao, let alone say a word. Everyone knew that Xie Zhao was really angry this time.

"Did I raise you just for free? You can't even look down on a woman, and are those Imperial Guards and Imperial Guards just decorations?" Xie Zhao sternly scolded, "A bunch of trash!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rush of footsteps. Changle rushed into the Qianyuan Hall and saw the mess on the ground. She immediately walked to Xie Zhao and said: "Your Majesty, calm down and find out the matter first. In case it is a What did people do?”

Xie Zhao snorted coldly, pointed at the officials behind Chang Le and continued to curse, "Song Yue can be kidnapped in the royal dungeon, you are really good! Why don't you open the palace gate, and don't have guards at the door? That's it, let's see who is more powerful." He suddenly came back to his senses and faced Chang Le, his face instantly softened, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised. His gloomy mood would gradually improve when he saw Chang Le. Really is magical.

Changle hesitated for a moment and walked forward to hold his hand. The two hands were hooked together, affectionate and ambiguous, "Azhao, don't be angry and hurt yourself. Maybe there is something hidden behind Songyue being kidnapped?"

The emperor and the queen were loving each other here, but it didn't stop the people below from being scared to death.

Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead in the middle of the night, and he kowtowed. The Royal Prison was also in charge of the punishment department, and he had an unshirkable responsibility. He knelt down in the middle of the night and said: "Your Majesty, I am not incompetent. In fact, the hijacker is extremely skilled in martial arts." , and good at using hidden weapons, the people sent by Chen couldn't get close to her. At first, I thought she was injured and fainted, so I ordered people to search for her, but I didn't expect that she was actually kidnapped. I felt extremely guilty. Please punish me, Your Majesty."

Ye Ban said and raised his head to look at Xie Zhao, only to see Xie Zhao staring at him with cold eyes, "Ye Ban, I think you have served me for so long, so I won't kill you this time, but the death penalty will not be spared and the life penalty will not be spared." , you should be grounded for half a year to see the effects."

Hearing this, I breathed a sigh of relief in the middle of the night. Half a year is enough.

After receiving the order and retreating in the middle of the night, Xie Zhaocai slowly closed his eyes and rubbed his eyebrows. His confidant eunuch quickly brought a cup of hot water to him.

"Your Majesty, please take a rest first. Princess Songyue has her own destiny, and she will definitely be able to return safely."

Xie Zhao opened his eyes indifferently, "I hope so."

"Your Majesty, this matter must be investigated strictly, not only because of Princess Songyue, but also for your own reputation. Your Majesty, think about it, if this matter is not severely punished, others will think that the royal majesty has been ruined in the future. Where is your majesty's face?" Eunuch Xie Lingfeng persuaded him earnestly.

Xie Zhao pursed his lips and said nothing.

Xie Lingfeng continued: "I know that Your Majesty is kind and generous, but you always worry too much, which ruins the overall situation."

"Xie Lingfeng, what do you know?" Xie Zhao's voice was cold.

Xie Lingfeng lowered his head and stopped talking. He understood what kind of character Xie Zhao was and what Xie Zhao was worried about. But as a member of the royal family, he only wanted to consider the royal family. As for Xie Zhao's selfishness, he did not want to Pay attention.
-
Although Xie Zhao did not blame himself for Songyue's disappearance, it did not mean that Changle would not blame him. After all, she was a princess.

Xie Zhao also knew that she had made a mistake this time, so he did not blame her. Instead, he gently stroked her hair and comforted: "Don't blame yourself. What happened this time is not your fault. Someone did it on purpose." To frame you, I have sent people to investigate, and this matter will definitely come to light."

Chang Le gritted his teeth and said, "The mastermind behind this must be found out and cut into pieces with a thousand knives."

Xie Zhao patted the back of Chang Le's hand and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, we will find the murderer."

"Yes." Changle nodded, "You don't have to worry about me, I know what to do during this period." She paused and asked, "What about Songyue? Is there any news?"

Xie Zhao shook his head, "No, I have asked someone to block the news. I'm just afraid that she, a girl, won't be used to being in the wild and will be in danger."

Xie Zhao suddenly sneered, with a playful expression on his face: "By the way, honey, Songyue doesn't treat you well either. Why are you so concerned about it this time?"

Changle frowned: "But then she is also your last relative in this world. She is your sister. Well, then I will go find her."

"Chang Le." Xie Zhao took Chang Le's hand, "Don't be willful. Just leave this matter alone. Rest in the palace for a few days. It's safe for now. I will protect you."

Changle hesitated for a moment and finally agreed to Xie Zhao.
-
Because the palace was no longer safe, in order to protect Changle's safety, she was almost placed under house arrest in the Lanyue Platform. She only read books, played the piano and practiced swordsmanship all day long. She hardly left the house and had no idea about the news outside. .

When she doesn't want to be in danger, she won't even be able to use a sword.

That night, a man wearing night clothes sneaked into Qianyuan Hall quietly.

In Qianyuan Hall.

Xie Zhao was lying on the bed, taking a nap, but suddenly a cold air hit him, and he suddenly sat up from the bed.

"Who broke into the Qianyuan Palace without permission?"

"Your Majesty, you are well." The man in night clothes took off his mask and revealed his true face.

Xie Zhao was stunned, "Shen Chen and Chu."

Shen Yunchu raised his lips and sneered: "Your Majesty has a really bad memory. My name is Shen Yunchu."

Xie Zhao took a deep breath, "What are you doing here?"

"Of course I have something to discuss with His Majesty."

"What do I have to discuss with you?" Xie Zhao frowned, obviously not wanting to talk to Shen Yunchu. This guy seemed to have a conspiracy at first sight. She didn't want to waste words with this kind of person, "Get out."

Shen Yunchu didn't seem to be angry, he was still smiling, "Is Your Majesty angry because of embarrassment?"

"You -" Xie Zhao glared at him, "Since you insist on seeking death, I will grant you permission."

She pulled out her sword, but Shen Yunchu easily dodged it, then quickly drew out the dagger on his waist and attacked Xie Zhao.

Xie Zhao was unable to dodge, and his right arm was cut. Blood instantly poured out, dyeing the snow-white gauze clothes red.

Xie Zhao was shocked, this despicable villain actually attacked him secretly!
Shen Yunchu gained the upper hand and approached her unmercifully. Xie Zhao dodged in a panic and accidentally fell on the bed.

"Your Majesty, I would like to offer you a glass of thin wine." Shen Yunchu looked down at Xie Zhao.

"roll--"

"Oh? It seems that His Majesty likes strong-willed melons." Shen Yunchu sneered coldly, "I just won't leave. Let's see if you have the ability to keep me here."

"What do you want to do?" Xie Zhao endured the pain and asked. "Let me tell your majesty that the accounts between us have not been settled yet," Shen Yunchu smiled, "did your majesty forget that you once sent someone to intercept and kill me?"

Xie Zhao's face suddenly turned pale. He had never publicized this secret to the outside world. Even his wife Chang Le didn't know about it. How did Shen Yunchu know about it?
"I don't know what you are talking nonsense about," Xie Zhao gritted his teeth and said, "I will never admit it!"

"It doesn't matter if Your Majesty doesn't admit it," Shen Yunchu took out a note, "Your Majesty will decide whether to admit it after reading this."

After opening the fold, Xie Zhao glanced twice, his pupils contracted violently, and he looked at him in disbelief, "How could...how could it be possible..."

Shen Yunchu glanced at her coldly, "What? Do you feel unjust? This is an imperial edict written by His Majesty himself. Your Majesty may wish to see if the content above is true."

Xie Zhao trembled and opened the booklet. Looking at the writing on it, her face became paler and paler. Her whole body couldn't stop trembling. Her fingertips were trembling. It took a long time before she uttered a few words, "I didn't write it. This is not what I wrote." The handwriting is impossible, this is impossible!”

There was a hint of sarcasm in the corner of Shen Yunchu's mouth, "Are you saying this is a forgery? What a pity, the forged handwriting is exactly the same as yours. Even I can't tell the authenticity. If you say it's a forgery, who will believe it?"

Xie Zhao kept shaking his head, "I didn't write this. I have never written anything like this. This is definitely a frame-up. Shen Yunchu, please don't frame it."

Shen Yunchu smiled even more mockingly, "Your Majesty is right, this is a false accusation, but your Majesty might as well take a closer look at the seal on it, but is it your majesty's private seal?"

Xie Zhao stared blankly at the seal in her hand. She was very sure that it was her private seal, because this seal was specially made by herself and was unique. There was no way to forge it. Could it be that this seal was real?Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"Your Majesty, can you trust me now?" Shen Yunchu asked with a smile.

Xie Zhao was silent for a moment, then suddenly raised his eyes to look at Shen Yunchu, "Shen Yunchu, what do you want to do?"

Shen Yunchu raised his eyebrows, "I would like to invite your Majesty to have tea and have a chat."

Xie Zhao stared at Shen Yunchu with burning eyes, and nodded slowly for a long time, "Okay, I will drink tea and chat with you."

Shen Yunchu smiled evilly, "Your Majesty is indeed very cheerful."

Xie Zhao ordered the secret guard to bring the tea set, poured himself a cup of hot tea, and drank it slowly.

Shen Yunchu was not in a hurry and stood quietly waiting.

Xie Zhao's fingers holding the tea cup clenched tightly, and his nails dug into the flesh, but he couldn't feel the slightest pain because he was completely numb at this time.

"Your Majesty, how does this tea taste?"

"Well, not bad." Xie Zhao said lightly.

Shen Yunchu took a sip and said slowly: "Your Majesty is so calm. You must have guessed the purpose of my coming tonight."

Xie Zhao smiled calmly, "I have never met you and have little contact with you. I don't know why you suddenly came to me. Is it for revenge?"

"Your Majesty was joking," Shen Yunchu smiled, "I just wanted to invite your Majesty to have tea and chat. After all, your Majesty is also my sister's child."

Mother? !Xie Zhao's heart felt as if it had been stabbed by a sharp knife, which was heartbreaking.

"Haha." Xie Zhao laughed softly, "Why didn't I realize before that you are so dirty and dirty!"

Shen Yunchu had a faint smile on his face, "Your Majesty, everything depends on evidence. If you don't have evidence, no one in the world will protect you."

"Bah!" Xie Zhao slammed the tea cup in his hand at Shen Yunchu. Shen Yunchu turned his head and dodged, "Shen Yunchu, don't be too arrogant!"

Shen Yunchu smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it's time to settle our accounts."

Xie Zhao sneered, "What do you want?"

"I want you to give me my stuff back."

Hearing this, Xie Zhao immediately retorted: "Impossible, you want my throne? Why? Just based on the empty promise my mother made to you back then? I didn't write the imperial edict you mentioned, it's all a forgery! Shen Yunchu, I advise you not to be too arrogant!"

Shen Yunchu's expression suddenly turned ferocious, "Xie Zhao, I advise you to be wise. Do you think that I can enter the palace again and again? Do you really fly over the eaves and climb over the walls? The guards outside have already been captured by me. You have been killed by someone, and now you can only beg for mercy. Oh yes, you are really a cruel person, and your own sister can be imprisoned. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, heartless."

"I don't need your warning!" Xie Zhao insisted.

"Haha, okay." As soon as Shen Yunchu finished speaking, he suddenly reached out and pulled off the bow and arrow hanging on the wall. He pulled the bow and shot an arrow. A sharp arrow penetrated Xie Zhao's shoulder, and blood immediately dripped. Xie Zhao grunted, The whole person fell to the ground, covering the wound and coughing continuously.

"You" Xie Zhao breathed hard and stared at Shen Yunchu with shock and resentment on his face, "How dare you commit murder? Are you crazy? Aren't you afraid of being punished by the Nine Clans?"

"Kill the Nine Clan? Hahahaha, you are among my Nine Clan!" Shen Yunchu laughed arrogantly, "Xie Zhao, you overestimate me, so what if you kill the Nine Clan? Besides, my parents are already dead, and you still What do you want?"

Shen Yunchu smiled and said: "I don't care what Your Majesty thinks, after all, you are my sister's only flesh and blood."

"I don't care!" Xie Zhao said sternly.

Shen Yunchu squinted his eyes, and a cold light flashed across his eyes. He suddenly walked up to Xie Zhao, reached out and pinched her chin, forcing Xie Zhao to look into his eyes, "Xie Zhao, you hear me clearly, I'm here for revenge." !”

There was ghastly hatred in his eyes, like an evil ghost. Xie Zhao couldn't help but shudder. Shen Yunchu let go of his hand and said, "In this life, you will never leave here alive. I will accompany you to the underworld!"

"You are treasonous!"

"Conspiracy?" Shen Yunchu smiled, his eyes flashing with bloodthirsty cruelty, "Do you think I can't bear the title of regicide to seize the throne?"

Shen Yunchu smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you'd better listen to me. I don't have much patience. I hope you will think it through as soon as possible."

"you"

"Fucking sick!"

Xie Zhao suddenly broke away from Shen Yunchu, and it turned out that everything just happened was performed by him!The dead soldiers outside quietly came back to life again.

The Qianyuan Hall of Nuo Da was surrounded.

Xie Zhao looked at Shen Yunchu coldly, as if looking at an ant!
He raised his wrist lightly and threw away the arrows on his body. The pained look he had pretended to dissipate, revealing his resolute and cold face underneath. The lion-like emperor would not frown because of a little pain!
