The Evil King's First-Class Concubine

Chapter 232
If it was someone else, I am afraid that he would have messed up under the shadow of the dead and the doubts of the people, and was finally framed without knowing it.But Xie Xinyue was not the kind of timid and cowardly little girl, she found evidence in her favor in the shortest time, and successfully cleared her suspicions.

"This matter has nothing to do with Ms. Xie. This king will thoroughly investigate this matter and find the real murderer of Ms. Lin. It is dangerous to stay here for a long time, Zhaoyang, you should go back first. Just leave the matter here to me."

Lin Sijin's death was completely unexpected by Mu Yunshen, but as long as Xie Xinyue's suspicion was removed, he could breathe a sigh of relief temporarily.

In the resting place of the paddock, when the guards passed the news of Lin Sijin's accidental death, not only the members of the Lin family, but even Emperor Xingwen and Empress Chu were shocked.It was the first time in the Great Zhou Dynasty that hunting of the dead occurred in so many years.Lin Ze turned pale with shock, and Bai Shi who followed him fainted on the spot.

"Your Majesty, please allow me to leave immediately!"

"Lin Aiqing doesn't need to be too polite, this matter is important, I will go with you personally!" Emperor Xingwen said in a deep voice, a stern look flashed in his eyes, no matter who tampered with this hunting, it happened during the court banquet He absolutely can't ignore this kind of thing.On the contrary, it is necessary to conduct a thorough investigation, otherwise, it will not only chill the hearts of the courtiers, but also lose face in front of the subordinate countries.

Letting the Queen stay to preside over the overall situation, Emperor Xingwen personally led two teams of Qianniu Guards to set off. However, halfway through the journey, the Qianniu Guards who opened the way in front looked around vigilantly and protected Emperor Xingwen in the middle.

"Your Majesty, there is unusual movement!"

The earth seemed to vibrate, and for a moment there was a faint feeling that the earth was shaking and the mountains were shaking. Even the horses lifted their hooves anxiously and panted heavily.Almost instantly, Emperor Xingwen thought of Dilong turning up, and the expression on his face was even more ugly.

Since ancient times, natural disasters have always indicated that the superiors are not benevolent, and then they will be punished, especially earthquakes, which are even more taboo.God's punishment was sent down at the court celebration banquet, what prestige does he have as Emperor Khan?

The rumbling sound got closer. At this time, the Qianniuwei scout who was sent to open the way backed back in a panic, and said in horror: "Your Majesty, retreat quickly! It's a herd of bears. The herd of bears is violent and chaotic!"

A group of dark and tall figures suddenly appeared in the forest not far away. It was a group of crazy black bears chasing them at an extremely crazy speed. The current direction was undoubtedly Emperor Xingwen and his party.

"What's the matter? Isn't the bear in the paddock deep in the woods?"

"Someone must have angered the bears and attracted their revenge!"

"Protect Your Majesty!"

"Your Majesty, let's go!"

The Qianniu Guards were shooting arrows and fighting in person. No matter what happened to these bears, they had to stop these beasts from rushing to the outside.There are all the royal family and nobles and the distinguished guests of the court banquet, and there will be countless casualties if there is a slight mistake.

Emperor Xingwen was blocked on his way forward, and he knew the severity of it, so he immediately left with Lin Ze under the escort of his guards.Just as this small group of people retreated alone, the assassin hidden in the bushes suddenly revealed a ferocious face.

"Boom!"

The loud sound caused Qianniuwei in the front to fall into the trap instantly. At the same time, countless arrows shot towards Emperor Xingwen and his party. From time to time, many people in green clothes sprang out from the trees and grass. The assassin rushed towards Emperor Xingwen.

"There are assassins! Escorts! Escorts!"

The guard shouted loudly, the situation was extremely dangerous in an instant, Lin Ze picked up a knife from the ground and blocked it in front of Emperor Xingwen, "Be careful, Your Majesty!"

"I'm not useless enough to be intimidated by a group of young people, come here, bring a bow and arrow!" Emperor Xingwen was not afraid at all, took the bow and arrow from the guard's hand, and shot towards the direction of the assassin. The sound of puffing and puffing, Emperor Xingwen shot one arrow, can be said to be a true example.

This move greatly boosted everyone's morale, and it can be said that the more they fought, the more courageous they became.Qian Niuwei was originally an elite, although he was restrained by those black bears and was caught by surprise, but he was extremely brave in the critical moment, and soon gained the upper hand.

Just as the two sides were fighting endlessly, horseshoes sounded in front of them, and the expressions on everyone's faces suddenly changed, thinking that it was the help sent by the assassin.But in the next second, the situation reversed instantly.

"Your Majesty, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Lin Ze's worried expression turned into joy, and the leader was indeed Prince Mu Yunbin.With a sullen face, he pointed the bow and arrow in the direction of Emperor Xingwen, but it made everyone feel a little bit stunned.

Prince, what is he doing?
The sharp arrow left the string, but it was the assassin behind Emperor Xingwen who was planning to sneak attack. If he was a few breaths later, Emperor Xingwen would definitely be hit by the assassin and injured!Fortunately, the prince came in time, otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous.

"Father, my son came late to rescue me, so please forgive me!"

"Okay, prince, there is no need to be so polite at this juncture. Let me take down all these assassins, and I want to see who is so capable and sneaked into the paddock to assassinate me!"

There are not many guards accompanying the prince, but it is enough to reverse the current situation.Moreover, because they got the news that Emperor Xingwen was in danger, the princes didn't care about the so-called competition and rushed over one after another.Looking at the third and fifth princes who were also anxiously coming a few minutes behind, Emperor Xingwen looked cold and said in a deep voice, "Where is King Jin?"

"This."

Everyone immediately looked at each other, not knowing what to say. After a while, the guard couldn't help the majesty of Emperor Xingwen and said: "Reporting to Your Majesty, I heard that Miss Xie had an accident, and His Royal Highness King Jin left before we came."

Emperor Xingwen frowned, and Lin Ze on the side even thumped in his heart, screaming that it was not good.Such a big thing happened, but King Jin ignored His Majesty's safety for the sake of a woman.What's more, for this paddock trip, the arrangements for the guards were all made by King Jin, the commander of the forbidden army.Let the assassin sneak into the paddock, this negligence will be investigated to the end, and the responsibility is also on King Jin's head.

"Father, because of an accident with the women's family, Xiao Qi was worried that Zhaoyang and the others would be in danger, so she put aside the competition and hurried over. Xiao Qi didn't have time to know about the assassin's attack. Excuse me."

The prince immediately opened his mouth to defend King Jin, which fully demonstrated his love for his brothers, and anyone could see the sincerity on his face.The third prince remained silent, as if he was an outsider on the sidelines. Only the fifth prince was unhappy, and the prince stole all the limelight. Although the father did not retaliate, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he was in a bad mood. For King Jin There must be dissatisfaction.

In the end, only the prince benefited from such a result. If he said that he did not do anything, he would not believe that the fifth prince was killed!It's just that all of this is his speculation, there is no evidence, he said that the prince did it, who would believe it?
"Father, even your place is in danger. I think those assassins must be divided into two groups to cause trouble. Fortunately, the Seventh Emperor went ahead of time. Zhaoyang and the others are weak women who have no strength to restrain the chicken. If the assassins hold them hostage and threaten them, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

The fifth prince's words eased Emperor Xingwen's displeasure, yes, now is not the time to pursue Mu Yunshen for not arriving in time with the prince and others.The young lady of the Lin family died unexpectedly, probably because of the murder of an assassin.In addition, there are Princess Zhaoyang and the ladies of the six great families. If the assassins attack them, the situation will definitely not be much better than it is now!

The sneak attacking assassins were already on the verge of defeating the army, seeing that there was no hope of killing Emperor Xingwen, they immediately began to flee.How could Emperor Xingwen let them go, and immediately let the fifth prince lead the army to hunt down all the assassins.At the same time, Emperor Xingwen also continued his previous action plan and took a group of people to the place where Lin Sijin died.

Coincidentally, before going too far, I saw Princess Zhaoyang and others who had returned.After confirming that only Lin Sijin had an accident, Guo Yuxiang was a little frightened, and everyone else was safe, Emperor Xingwen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered the guards to send everyone back.

"Father! Why are you here?" Mu Yunshen, who was checking for clues, was surprised when he saw a group of people in front of him.The assassination happened too suddenly, and Emperor Xingwen didn't stop there, so Mu Yunshen didn't know that it happened just now.

"There was an assassin intending to murder the royal father just now. Not long after you left, the seventh emperor, the royal father came here in person because he was worried about the safety here. How is the situation of Miss Lin?" The prince explained simply. , but an unknown light flashed in his eyes.

"What? Father was assassinated? Father, are you injured? What's going on? What kind of person took the courage of the ambitious leopard, did the assassin catch him, did you find out what happened?" Mu Yun was deeply shocked. , Immediately dismounted and ran to Emperor Xingwen, the worry and anxiety in his eyes were overflowing.

After all, he was the most beloved son, and seeing Mu Yunshen's concern, the anger in Emperor Xingwen's heart subsided, and he said in a deep voice: "I'm fine, I've already sent people to catch those assassins."

"Jin'er!"

Lin Ze looked at his daughter's stiff body and couldn't help crying. He had only one daughter in his life, and even though she was born of his step-wife Bai, he loved him like a jewel in his palm.Now that the beloved daughter died suddenly, and the white-haired man gave away the black-haired man, one can imagine the grief and indignation in his heart.

"What's going on? Who killed my Jin'er? Your Majesty, there is only such a daughter under the old minister's knees, please make the decision for the old minister!" Lin Ze cried bitterly, but Mu Yunshen frowned slightly , explaining what happened.

"Master Lin, this king is also very sorry about your love. However, this matter has nothing to do with Miss Xie. This king will investigate this matter thoroughly and give you an explanation, Lord Lin."

Xie Xinyue, Guo Yuxiang and Bai Lingxue did not leave, no matter what, since this matter was involved with her, Xie Xinyue couldn't ignore it.With all the witnesses and material evidence in front of him, even if Bai Lingxue didn't like her, he couldn't forcefully put the blame on her.However, the suspicion on Xie Xinyue's head cannot be removed with this little evidence, at least not everyone is willing to believe her innocence.

"Lord Lin, I dare to swear with my life that Miss Lin's death has absolutely nothing to do with Miss Xie! We were all together along the way and never separated. It is impossible for her to have that motive at that time to kill someone. In fact, Lin The girl has always been estranged from us today. When hunting, she deliberately kept a distance from us. Later, my horse suddenly went crazy and ran to this place. It was a panic. How could we know in advance that Miss Lin actually Will it be here too?"
