Prosperous advisors

Chapter 998 Assassination (2)
All the envoys in the palace were in an uproar. They had heard the news before.Otherwise, they would not have dared to surrender so easily due to Rong Jin's cruelty to the countries of the Western Regions.Although Mu Qingyi said that she wanted to play, everyone knew that this Prime Minister Mu was not only the prime minister of Xiyue, but also the queen of Xiyue. fact.

"Thank you, Mu Xiang!" Prince Tuo Tuo said respectfully.The Tuo Tuo Country is just an extremely inconspicuous small country in the Western Regions, with an area less than one-third the size of Yutian. It is sandwiched between several countries and has been fighting all year round.Compared with those behemoths in the East, they are only qualified to look up.So although he lost the status of the crown prince, the prince of Tuo Tuo didn't feel too sad.Not everyone has the arrogance of preferring to be a chicken head rather than a phoenix tail.

With the leader of the Tuo Tuo Prince and Mu Qingyi's personal promise, soon everyone stopped hesitating, and stepped forward to present to Mu Qingyi the tokens of surrender and the letter of credence they brought.

Standing beside Mu Qingyi, Rong Yang took the letters of state and the state seal from Mu Qingyi's hands one by one, a sense of pride and pride welled up in his heart.From then on, the Western Regions belonged to Xiyue.If not, it will be later, and maybe the Northern Han Dynasty will also belong to Xiyue.He seems to have seen the grand scene of Xiyue dominating the world.

"Mu Xiang...be careful!" While Mu Qingyi was reading the national documents with her head down, several waiters standing in the hall suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Mu Qingyi's direction, and at the same time put the hidden weapon in their hands. shot out.There was an exclamation in the hall.

Mu Qingyi was not moved, she didn't even raise her head, she still kept her head down while reading the national letter.At the same moment when several waiters were attacking, the man in Tsing Yi who was seated first at the bottom suddenly jumped up, and the silver light in his hand flashed a brilliant silver light.There was only a ding-dong sound, and those hidden weapons flashing dangerous cold light were swept to the ground one after another.And those attendants who wanted to rush forward were shocked back by a strong force before they came to him, and fell to the ground one after another.

Everyone was speechless, staring blankly at the man in Tsing Yi standing in front of him with his hands behind his back.Except for everyone in Xiyue, the guests present did not know Xia Xiuzhu.Many people are even curious about this silent man who has no identity at all but can sit in the same high position as Xiyue County Wang Rongyang.But even so, no one thought that this silent, seemingly inconspicuous man in Tsing Yi shocked everyone as soon as he made a move.

Mu Qingyi finally finished reading the credentials in his hand, looked up at Xia Xiuzhu with a smile and said, "Xiuzhu, thank you for your hard work."

Xia Xiuzhu nodded, and glanced at the assassin on the ground.

Bringing these assassins is also the envoy of a small country that returned today.At this moment, the messenger's legs were weak and he fell to the ground and couldn't get up.Sensing Xia Xiuzhu's gaze, the messenger hurriedly said: "Mu Xiangmingjian...these people...these people..." He was indeed wronged, no matter how stupid they were, they would not be able to assassinate Mu Qing in front of so many people Ripple.What's the use of assassinating Mu Qingyi?It was Rong Jin, the Emperor of Xiyue, who was marching and fighting outside, even if he really killed Mu Xiang, it would only arouse the anger of Emperor Xiyue and drag the entire Western Region into hell.However, these people... are absolutely brought by themselves.

"Mu Xiang, ask Mu Xiang to learn from you. Our country is sincerely obedient, and we will never dare to treasonously assassinate Mu Xiang."

Mu Qingyi raised her hand to stop Rong Yang whose face suddenly darkened, and said calmly: "Get up, the truth of this matter will be found out."

The emissary secretly breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he was willing to investigate, he would always find a clue.What I am most afraid of is that part of Xiyue will directly blame them for indiscriminately.Rong Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "Although this is the case, your Excellency cannot escape suspicion. So, please don't wander around until the matter is clear."

"Yes, yes." The envoy quickly replied, although he knew that he was about to be imprisoned, but the envoy was not angry.At least this is not the worst outcome.The other people present didn't dare to say anything more. Xiyue was really a hidden dragon and crouching tiger. Even a seemingly inconspicuous man next to Mu Qingyi was so powerful. What capital did they have to fight against Xiyue?

"Your Majesty is here!" Just as everyone breathed a sigh of relief, the guards suddenly called out loudly from outside the hall.Rong Yang, General Cheqi and the others froze immediately, and they all looked at the assassin who was immobilized on the ground by Xia Xiuzhu.Who knew that His Majesty would come back suddenly at this time, if he found out about Mu Yu's assassination... I'm afraid there will be another bloodbath.Mu Qingyi's expression was calm, she got up and waved her hands, "Leave these people here for interrogation first."

"Qingqing, who wants to interrogate?" Rong Jin's voice sounded outside the hall, and in a moment, a man in black with a hostile look appeared at the entrance of the hall.The black brocade clothes swayed slightly in the night wind, and the candlelight illuminated the dark embroidery of dragon patterns on the black clothes.The dragon pattern that was supposed to be golden made people see a bit of blood.The long black hair was scattered casually, but the youthful and somewhat excessively handsome face gave people an oppressive force that seemed to be suffocating.

Rong Yang secretly screamed in his heart that it was not good.His Majesty's martial arts are on par with Wei Gongzi Xia Xiuzhu and others.This made Rong Yang have to suspect that His Majesty had actually heard what happened in the palace before he came in.Calmly, Rong Yang took a few steps back slowly, trying to keep himself as far away from Mu Qingyi as possible.

Rong Jin stepped into the hall and quickly walked towards Mu Qingyi who was in the hall.When passing by the assassin who fell to the ground, it seemed as if he didn't see anyone at all, and he stepped on the assassin's hand without any haste.Everyone only heard a click, and the screams were heard in the hall.Rong Jin didn't even raise his eyebrows, walked up to Mu Qingyi and looked her up and down, and after confirming that she was fine, he lowered his head and said softly: "Qingqing, I'm back." Mu Qingyi smiled, "Why are you back now? "I thought it was supposed to come back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow.Rong Jin raised his eyebrows, he didn't say that he threw the army to Dongfang Xu and came back quickly.

"Brother Xia, you've worked hard." Rong Jin looked at Xia Xiuzhu next to him, thanking him sincerely.These people dared to assassinate in front of the hall, and they didn't need to think about it to know that this was definitely not the only assassination these days.It was really thanks to Xia Xiuzhu that Qingqing was able to sit here without any harm.Xia Xiuzhu nodded lightly and said, "It's okay." He didn't protect Mu Qingyi because of Rong Jin's request, but because Mu Qingyi was a friend he recognized, so he didn't need Rong Jin's thanks.

Sitting back in the hall with Mu Qingyi in his arms, Rong Jin glanced at the people in the hall, and finally set his eyes on the assassin on the ground and asked: "You are not small, who gave you the courage to assassinate Qingqing?" Among the four assassins, the one who was stepped on by Young Master Rong Jiu suddenly bled from his mouth for some reason, and he died while they were talking.The guests present were terrified, except for Xia Xiuzhu, no one could understand why Rong Jin stepped on the assassin's arm and why the assassin would vomit blood and die.But it doesn't look like suicide.
