Chapter 264 That Fire Was a Sacrifice

"Mother?"

Little Qin Zhan turned his head to look at Su Shixia in doubt, "What's wrong?"

"I'm also a little curious about that old incident 20 years ago."

While Su Shixia spoke, he had already stood up holding Xiao Qin Zhan, and walked slowly to Prince Yu's side.

"Some things, I want to have a good talk with Master Guoshi, so..."

Su Shixia looked down at the little Qin Zhan in his arms, with a smile on his lips, but there was a complex look in his eyes that little Qin Zhan couldn't understand.

Little Qin Zhan felt uneasy, and his little hands tightly clutched her sleeves, refusing to let go.

Su Shixia only smiled and patted his little head, then bent down firmly and handed him over to Prince Yu's hands.

"Zhan'er, be good, you stay with Prince Yu first, and after a while, mother will come to pick you up after she has finished talking with the Master of the State Teacher."

"Mother..."

Little Qin Zhan panicked suddenly, he subconsciously wanted to stop Su Shixia, but looking at her firm eyes, he finally swallowed the words that came to his lips, he just nodded obediently, and obediently sat down on Yu Wang Ye's side.

"I will wait for mother."

The little guy's sensibility made Su Shixia's heart a little sore, but the expression on her face did not reveal the slightest clue, still smiling slightly, she nodded at him.

When she straightened up, she unobtrusively threw a spell at Prince Yu's feet.

Prince Yu noticed it, but he didn't bend over to pick it up, he just pretended to tidy up the clothes casually, pulled the hem of the clothes, and completely covered the spell with the hem of the clothes.

"Zhan'er, please take care of him, Prince Yu."

After Su Shixia said this, he blessed Prince Yu and walked straight towards Yeli.

With that usual gentle smile on Ye Li's face, he quietly watched Su Shixia approaching him step by step.

It wasn't until Su Shixia walked in front of him that he smiled and said, "Princess Pingxi is interested in these investigation documents in Yemou's hands?"

"Wangfei wants to see it, so just look at it. This is something that will be made public in the future, and there is no need to deliberately hide it."

He said that he had taken the initiative to hand those documents to Su Shixia, but Su Shixia didn't reach out to pick them up at all. He just raised his eyes and stared at him calmly, and said directly: "Before you take out these documents, I I once thought that you should just be with Su Wang."

"Twenty years ago, you colluded with Su Wang Guifei and the others to plan the tragedy in the harem. Today, you also conspired with them to help Su Wang usurp the throne."

Su Shixia twitched the corners of her lips and said, "I even thought about it, maybe from the very beginning, you were an undercover agent sent by Xiqi State to completely wipe out Dongling for Xiqi State."

Ye Li couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, he shook his head helplessly and said: "I see. It seems that Princess Pingxi misunderstood Yemou deeply, and you have always regarded Yemou as a villain with deep scheming."

"Fortunately, His Majesty personally testified for Ye Mou this time, so the misunderstanding was cleared up and Ye Mou was innocent."

Ye Li smiled and said, "Princess, could it be...knowing that you have misunderstood Yemou, you feel uneasy, so you want to come here to personally apologize to Yemou?"

"That's not necessary, Yemou is not the kind of person who waits for a small belly, this matter is nothing more than a misunderstanding..."

Ye Li put on a generous look who didn't care.

But Su Shixia looked at him with colder eyes.

"Ye Li, we have fought against each other before, I know what you are capable of, and you should also know that my profound skills are no worse than yours."

"It's time like this, do you really think I'm a fool? Do you think I can't see what you did? Do you think I don't understand what your purpose is?"

"You are not the person of Su Wang and the noble concubine at all!"

Su Shixia said coldly: "You are His Majesty's man! You have been since 20 years ago!"

When Su Shixia said this, not to mention how other people in the hall reacted, Qin Yi, who was standing not far from her, couldn't help frowning.

"Shixia, what do you mean by that? Father, he has known the national teacher for a long time. Twenty years ago, during the great battle between Dongling Kingdom and Xiqi Kingdom, Ye Li even went out with the army as a military advisor. We all know."

Qin Yi walked to Su Shixia's side, raised his hand to hold her shoulder to signal her to calm down, but when Su Shixia turned his head to look at him, seeing her cold gaze, his body froze involuntarily , the arm that was originally raised was also put back, and only continued:
"Ye Li was indeed the emperor's subordinate 20 years ago, you said..."

"I'm not talking about the fact that he and His Majesty went to Xiqi together. I'm talking about the fire in the harem 20 years ago."

Su Shixia closed her eyes and sighed softly, "The fire that burned your mother and concubine to death, and... the real Qin Yi 20 years ago."

"I can tell you clearly now that it was not just a simple fire. The people who died in that fire were not simply died of accidents. They were sacrificed..."

As soon as the word "sacrifice" was uttered, Su Shixia's face changed suddenly, and he grabbed Qin Yi's wrist and pulled him aside, and at the same time shouted, "Be careful!"

At the same time, Qin Yi's eyes also turned sharp, and he pulled her arm tightly to protect her into his arms, and at the same time stabbed fiercely behind her with the long sword in his hand.

"bass!"

A piercing sound of metal friction suddenly entered the ears of everyone present.

The faces of the people were horrified, and they looked towards Su Shixia and the others in disbelief. When they saw the scene over there clearly, they all widened their eyes, and their eyes looked like they had seen a ghost.

Even the acupoints were sealed by Ye Li before, King Su, who was lying stiffly on the ground and pretending to be a corpse, opened his eyes wide in shock, a pair of blood-red eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets.

He was the closest to Su Shixia and Qin Yi, and he was lying under the steps, so he could see the whole situation clearly when he raised his eyes, so he could see everything that happened just now.

Just after Su Shixia said the words "sacrifice", Emperor Dongling, who had been standing quietly on the steps before, suddenly flew forward, taking advantage of Qin Yi's back to him and without any precautions, he directly raised the dagger He stabbed Qin Yi hard in the back.

Su Shixia noticed the blow from Emperor Dongling, and pulled Qin Yi aside so that he escaped the attack.

But at the same time she shot to save Qin Yi, Ye Li, who was standing beside Su Shixia, also shot at the same time, drew out the long sword at her waist and stabbed at Su Shixia.

This time, it was Qin Yi who protected Su Shixia and helped Su Shixia block the blow.

Although both of them reacted quickly enough, Emperor Dongling and Ye Li seemed determined to take their lives.

Before the two of them stabilized their figures, the long sword in Ye Li's hand swung out again, and this time, the sharp blade slashed straight at Su Shixia's neck!
