Chen Palace

Chapter 206 The Fall
There was a slight drumming noise among the soldiers, Chen Lu sneered slightly, and retorted: "The decree was originally given to Concubine Hui for secret collection by the first emperor. In desperation, she could only hand over the imperial decree to Lin Kuang for safekeeping."

"Afterwards, Concubine Hui died in a hurry due to illness, and the secret decree has been kept in Lin Kuang's hands—"

Chen Lu finally said: "Then the imperial court seized this item from him."

"Lin Kuang is a scum of my family, so it's a pity to believe his words?!"

The queen mother sneered, still speaking in a high-sounding manner.

Wang Peizhi fixed her eyes on her, and said quietly, "That year, the late emperor had a dispute with you and threw a scroll on your wrist by mistake..."

The Empress Dowager's complexion suddenly changed, and Wang Peizhi continued: "You didn't read the content carefully - in fact, it was this imperial decree... That time your wrist was injured by a wooden shaft, and a drop was left on this imperial decree." Blood."

The empress dowager's complexion became more and more gray, and the jade bracelet on her wrist collided with the pepper wall in the corner, making a lingering sound.

"You still have a pale scar on your wrist."

This sentence was like an arrow from the string, and shot through the Queen Mother's heart with a sharp whistle. She didn't know whether it was shock or anger, and her whole body trembled slightly.

All the people present were men, Chen Lu gave him a wink, Qin Xi boldly stepped forward, and said anxiously: "The empress dowager, forgive me..."

He lifted the empress dowager's sleeves, and saw the scar on the snowy skin, it was exactly the same!

The queen mother did not resist, but stood against the wall, indescribably lonely and desolate——

The blood-colored moonlight shone on her body, and the black weft was heavily covered with dark flowers and gold-red silk embroidery. Although there were faint fine lines at the corners of her eyes, they still couldn't hide the beauty.

"Peizhi, why are you treating me like this..."

As if her heart and lungs were already in pain, she asked in a low voice, her normally deep and calm phoenix eyes seemed to be filled with two balls of flames, scorching hot and shrill.

"A Yuan, you can't go on making mistakes like this..."

Wang Peizhi's voice was calm and unwavering, but filled with unbearable sadness.

"I can assassinate political enemies for you, and live in seclusion for you, but you still don't give up. You want to depose Jinshang and let an unborn child take the throne, so that you can continue to hang on to the Lin Dynasty... The world of Kyushu is as you please, But where do you want to put the common people and the people!"

Wang Peizhi said word by word, ignoring the murmurs of the people around him, he just stared at the queen mother with pained and determined eyes.

"That's enough, A Yuan, let's stop!"

He gently and quietly called her boudoir name, pleading again.

The queen mother sneered lowly, her eyes mixed with strong love and hatred, "It's really easy for you to say..."

She smiled softly and sadly, "I have been serving the late emperor since I was 19 years old, and now it has been 26 years... I dream every night, which night I slept peacefully-do you really think that I am in love with power, and my desires are hard to fill?!"

She gazed at the many cornices of the palace, and gently said word by word: "This emperor's palace is thousands of layers, and the jade seat bead curtain, once you have it, you can't lose it—unless it is,"

She smiled, and gently uttered the most terrifying word "death" in the world.

Wang Peizhi was terrified, and was about to speak when he caught a glimpse of a sharp light out of the corner of his eye——

"careful!"

He flew forward, and the queen mother pushed away without any time, and the sharp green light pierced straight into his chest with a gloomy green light.

Changing into elbows and armpits, everyone looked at these two people intently, and no one paid attention to others.

A strong and weak figure jumped down from the palace wall, shot and killed the two of them again with the crossbow arrow in his hand, then turned around and ran sprinting after carrying King Jing.

Countless people were stunned at this moment, and when they came back to their senses, they stepped forward and shouted: "General!"

"Shuai Wang..." "Lord Wang..."

Wang Peizhi lay flat on the ground, the Queen Mother held his hand convulsively, her pupils contracted to one point, her face contorted in shock.

"Peizhi..."

She trembled, screamed in despair, and her white and soft palms were stained and soaked by the gurgling blood spring.

A tear flowed from her eye socket, hot, salty and bitter, and fell into Wang Peizhi's eyes, almost scalding.

"Don't cry...A Yuan."

His throat was gurgling, but he tried his best to support his body, and said to the soldiers on the left and right: "Pull her away."

Everyone was awe-inspiring, and forcefully picked up the queen mother, and was about to drag her away, but saw her struggling violently, breaking free from the restraints of several powerful men, and throwing herself back to his side.

"I do not cry."

The Empress Dowager only felt that the stars were spinning all over the sky, that this prosperous and dreamlike palace seemed to be collapsing and weathering, and the carved beams and paintings turned into decayed ashes, and disappeared inch by inch.

She gritted her teeth and smiled, her smile was as charming and beautiful as in 26 years, "Hold on...the imperial doctor is coming soon!"

Wang Peizhi had been a soldier for half his life, his eyes were like a torch, and when he glanced at his injury, his heart sank.

His eyes flickered, and he pretended to be relaxed and murmured: "It hurts so much..."

He showed a gentle smile to the queen mother, and whispered: "Sing a song, just the one we first met..."

The queen mother got up in a trance, cleared her throat, and the clear and thorough singing drifted in the night, seeming to be far and near——

"Stay in the grass of Nanzhou in the evening, and walk in the forest on the north bank in the morning. The sun hangs over the sea, and the water is deep across the Dongting—"

Wang Peizhi suddenly stood up and sat up, and with a clean hand knife, the Queen Mother lay down softly.

He was coughing, and blood was overflowing from his mouth and nose, and he collapsed to the ground due to this violent movement, and his pupils began to dilate.

"I'm sorry... I still don't want you to watch me die..."

His consciousness began to blur, everything in the sky was hanging upside down in front of his eyes, and the many joys and sorrows in this life passed away in this instant——

There were soft footsteps, and someone was gradually approaching. A pair of clear black eyes seemed to be far away, as if they were right in front of them.

"Sister-in-law...is that you?"

His consciousness became more and more blurred, but he suddenly woke up because of the chill in his black eyes——

"Did you come to seek my life from the underworld..."

He smiled, choking blood from his mouth and nose, "It's okay, this debt has been owed for 26 years, and it's time to pay it back."

"Sister-in-law, I was the one who gave Brother Xu the forged marching route, making him think that you were colluding with Prince Hulu in rebellion... It was also me who stole your personal seal and convinced him..."

He coughed, spat out big mouthfuls of blood, and said as if no one else was there.
