famous eldest daughter

Chapter 410

The emperor's order did not make the slightest trace of panic appear on He Wenyue's ashen face. He still looked like he was waiting for death. He was so weak that he sat there paralyzed, his eyes empty and expressionless.

It was as if the soul had been removed from the body, with only the breath of life remaining.

But Xiao Duo was like crazy. He tried his best to break away from the imperial army at hand and wanted to rush to the emperor. "Father, I am not guilty. I am wronged. My only crime is that I mistakenly believed in Lu Jiuzheng because of greed. I was greedy for a little money from him, but if I have to send my son to the heavenly prison because of this, then all the people in the imperial study will probably go to the heavenly prison, who has never been greedy!"

With Xiao Duo's mind, if he could calm down, he would definitely be able to hear the emperor's selfish motives when pronouncing the verdict on this matter.

It's a pity, from the moment He Wenyue appeared, to when He Wenyue bluntly said everything, the only sliver of reason in his heart has long since disappeared, and his mind is full of how to justify, how to make the emperor believe him, how to Prove that he was framed.

If he had any sense at all, he would know that keeping silent was the best choice in the current situation.

however……

While Xiao Duo was struggling like crazy, Xiao Yu, who had been silent and sitting alone watching the show, suddenly stood up and walked to Xiao Duo in two steps.

He raised his hand and pinched his wrist, "What else do you want? Send the criminals appointed by the emperor to Dafang Temple to disrupt the pure place of Buddhism. Embezzle Lu Jiuzheng's embezzlement money, and the matter was exposed, and instigated Lu Jiuzheng to kidnap Chi Nanhou daughter. She even made a vicious plan to kill Chi Nanhou and Gu Yuqing together. When the plan failed, they instigated the Tianque disciples on Longyang Mountain to intercept and kill me, your biological brother. By doing this, you Why do you regard your father as the emperor!"

I don't know how hard Xiao Yu used to pinch Xiao Duo's wrist. In an instant, Xiao Duo's originally white and bloodless face turned flushed due to the extreme pain.

Xiao Duo had never put Xiao Yu in his eyes. After a moment of daze, he immediately pushed Xiao Yu back.

Gu Yuqing knew exactly how good Xiao Yu was.

But just when Xiao Duo swung hard and the two were entangled, Xiao Yu was thrown aside by him. Gu Yuqing's heart suddenly trembled. He looked towards Xiao Yu, but his eyes had not yet touched Xiao Yu. , the knife that Xiao Duo had put away just now flew out again.

But this time, it didn't fall straight down, but at a certain angle, and headed straight towards Xiao Yu.

Suddenly, Gu Yuqing's heart stopped beating, and she couldn't help raising her hand, covered her mouth with a handkerchief, opened her big eyes full of panic, and exclaimed, "Xiao Yu be careful!"

After Gu Yuqing finished speaking, Xiao Yu turned slightly to one side, and the sharp dagger grazed his face and flew straight to the huge wooden pillar behind him. With a "pop" sound, the dagger was embedded into the wooden pillar for three thirds, leaving the rest outside. The part trembles continuously as the blade is embedded.

Gu Yuqing broke into a cold sweat.

Not only Gu Yuqing, but also the emperor was so shocked that he stood up from his chair, supported the table with his hands, leaned forward and looked at Xiao Yu, "How are you!" Concern filled his face.

Xiao Yu looked like he was surviving the disaster, exhaled a breath, touched the cheek that had been wiped by the dagger, and smiled with his usual unruly smile, "My son, I'm fine."

Saying that, he raised his foot and walked towards the wooden pillar into which the flying knife was nailed.

At the same time, the emperor picked up the pen holder on which the Hu pen was placed, and threw it towards Xiao Duo without even thinking about it. The pen holder was made of Taihu stone. In order to highlight the shape, it had many edges and corners, and Extremely sharp.

This sudden change, Xiao Duo hadn't recovered from the flying dagger, suddenly felt his eyes go dark, and he was hit hard on the forehead.

Hot blood flowed down his cheeks. Xiao Duo realized something later, his heart trembled, and he ignored the blood on his face. He turned to the emperor and said: "Father, that flying knife was not thrown by a son." Yes, my son is crazy, I want to stab him with a flying knife in front of my father in the royal study!"

The emperor looked at Xiao Duo and saw the bright red blood oozing out from his forehead, but he did not blink his eyelids and did not feel the slightest bit of distress in his heart. "There is nothing else you can't do!"

With this sentence, all Xiao Duo's excuses were blocked.

Xiao Duo felt as if there was thunder above his head, shaking his limbs to pieces.

Today's events are full of strangeness. Every single thing was indeed arranged by him with his participation and carefully arranged by him. However, not all of these things are as they should be. look.

Just like He Wenyue, it is true that he arranged for him to live in Dafang Temple, but how did he ever say what He Wenyue said!

He was like a puppet being manipulated by someone, but he had no idea who was controlling it.

The panic in his heart was getting bigger and stronger. Facing the emperor's cold eyes full of hatred and anger, Xiao Duo felt like he was out of his body.

Xiao Yu reached the wooden pillar and raised his hand to pull out the dagger. However, the moment he pulled it out, he blurted out: "Hey, what is this?"

Originally, because of this incident, everyone's eyes fell on Xiao Duo. As Xiao Yu's voice sounded, everyone looked at him one after another. Xiao Yi was even more afraid of missing any first-hand news, so he raised his feet and Walking towards Xiao Yu, "What's wrong?" He looked concerned.

Xiao Yu turned around and handed the dagger to Xiao Yi, "Look."

Xiao Yi glanced at Xiao Yu suspiciously, then his eyes fell on the wooden handle of the dagger. His eyes suddenly shrank and his expression changed drastically, "Oh my god!" He exclaimed, turned around and walked towards the emperor, "Father, this dagger is on the handle. Engraved."

As Xiao Yi's words fell into his ears, Xiao Duo's eyes trembled.

Engraved words... He has carried the dagger with him for several years, how could he never know that there are words on that dagger...

In shock and doubt, Xiao Duo raised his eyes and looked straight at the dagger that Xiao Yi held in front of the emperor.

A line of small regular script fell into his eyes. With just one glance, the emperor was sure that if this was not Xiao Duo's handwriting, who could it be?
What is engraved on the handle of the knife is a line of years. Such an unforgettable day will be remembered by the emperor throughout his life. His heart skipped a beat, and he felt blood flowing backwards, rushing straight to the top of his head. King Duan was in prison. Those words in the middle were like a rusty iron knife, piercing his heart again.

Looking up, the bloodthirsty murderous intent was already surging in his eyes, "Why did you engrave the day when King Duan was defeated and captured by me on the handle of this knife?"

As soon as the emperor said this, Gu Yuqing's heart suddenly moved, and flashes of light flashed in his mind, carefully recalling the entanglement between Xiao Yu and Xiao Duo just now.

As for Xiao Duo, the surprise on his face disappeared, replaced by unspeakable fear and a deep, unpredictable look, "How could it be possible! How could I carve this on the handle of the knife!"

　Thanks for the reward from the lovely Shengshilanshan!
