Chapter 125 Attacked! (5)
Fortunately, he was still sane, and quickly joined the fierce fight, cooperating with the blood shadow to force the vicious man in black back.

"How are you?" Looking at the man's injured arm, Bai Xinran's eyes couldn't help but turn red.

"It's all right." Yan Moyu didn't stay long, wrapped her waist with an uninjured hand, and quickly left the fighting venue. "let's go--"

capital palace
Inside the imperial study
Xia Gao stared sharply at the spy below who reported the news.

"What?! King Cheng was assassinated and injured in Cuiyun Mountain?!"

"Report to the emperor, it is absolutely true." The spy knelt on one knee and did not dare to lift his head.

"I asked you to follow Cheng Wang, why didn't you help me!" Xia Gao was so angry that his chest trembled, and he almost cursed, "You, you are a bunch of trash!"

The spy lowered his head and dared not answer a word.

"Where are King Cheng and the others now? Did they get hurt?"

The spy replied cautiously: "Back to the emperor, Prince Cheng and the others did not go back to the mansion, but went to another courtyard."

Hearing this, Xia Gao glared at Dequan beside him: "Don't tell the imperial doctor yet!"

"Yes, Your Majesty, the slave is going right away." Dequan also had a nervous expression on his face, and hurriedly left the imperial study room after responding.

Looking back, Xia Gaochao ordered the spies: "Hurry up and summon the blood shadow into the palace, I will personally ask her who did it!"

The news of King Cheng's assassination was like a gust of wind, who knows who spread the news so quickly, even Fengde Palace got the news very quickly.

Hearing this, Xia Lixun, who was sitting on the teacher's chair and sipping fragrant tea, sprayed out on the spot—

"What? King Cheng was assassinated and injured?!"

The servant who reported the news nodded affirmatively: "Yes, my lord, I heard that even the emperor has heard the news, and has already sent an imperial doctor to heal Cheng Wang's injury."

Xia Lixun suddenly turned dark.

Seeing that his expression was not right, the boy hurriedly asked, "My lord, what's wrong with you?"

After recovering, Xia Lixun ordered him angrily: "Where is King Cheng now? Hurry up and take me there!"

Damn man, fortunately he still thought he was a trustworthy person, but he didn't expect to cheat on him behind his back!
No wonder Xia Lixun was so angry.Others don't know the consequences of King Cheng's injury, but he does!
The prince was injured, and some people suspected that it was Cheng Wang who wanted to get rid of the prince.Now that King Cheng is injured, wouldn't all the spearheads be pointed at him? !

Such a scapegoat, who dares to bear it?

This King Cheng is really nothing!
And the prince, as stupid as a pig!
Do you think that if you direct such a play, your father will believe that King Cheng has ambitions?

If the father doubted King Cheng so easily, why did he give King Cheng so much power and favor?

Does he think his father is as stupid as him?
In these years, King Cheng has received so many imperial favors, it's all because he has no ambition.He didn't believe that Prince Cheng had no ambitions before, but after the Maoshan Village incident, he believed that Prince Cheng did not have ambitions to compete with these princes for the throne.

If so, King Cheng would have taken the opportunity to deal with Maoshan Village a long time ago!
After figuring this out, he also figured out something else.According to his father's favor and trust in King Cheng, even if his father abdicates in the future, King Cheng's status will only be high or not, and the new king will have to rely on his assistance to succeed to the throne in the future.

If you want to secure that position, you really need such a character.

But that stupid pig of the crown prince is lucky. Not only did he not see the role of King Cheng, but he deliberately wanted to get rid of King Cheng. He was so stupid!
With him like this, he doesn't need to work hard, the emperor will get rid of him sooner or later!
Just when King Cheng was injured and the news kept leaking out, inside a private house in Wutong Lane in the capital.

In a simple house, a man and a woman sit opposite each other across a dining table.

On the table, there is a table full of delicate and delicious dishes.The aroma of wine filled the narrow room.

The woman is graceful and wealthy, although she is 40 years old, but because of proper maintenance, her skin is as smooth as fat, and with carefully painted makeup, she looks like she is in her thirties.

The silk dress on her body is not only exquisite in workmanship, but also bright in color, which adds a lot of color to women.

For such a noble and charming woman to appear in this simple courtyard, it is obviously incompatible with everything in this courtyard.But at this moment, the woman not only didn't feel disgusted at all, but instead smiled gently at the middle-aged man opposite.

"Ziyang, we haven't seen each other for almost ten years, right?"

The middle-aged man sitting opposite the woman was plainly dressed, average-looking, and dark-skinned. Compared with the woman, one was like a white cloud in the sky, and the other was like black mud in the ground. No matter how you looked at it, it was wrong.

However, the woman smiled like a flower, gentle and charming, while the man looked at the woman who was as beautiful as a fairy as 20 years ago, his expression was unconcealable excitement, and he couldn't bear to look away even if he stared at the woman.

"Shuiyan...you, why do you think of me all of a sudden?" Sheng Ziyang felt like he was dreaming of the woman in front of him, and still couldn't believe that this woman would take the initiative to find him.After all, she was the one who voluntarily rejected him back then, and since that incident, she has become the princess of Prince Cheng's Mansion, and she has completely severed her fate with him.

Qiu Shi pursed her lips and smiled: "Why, don't you feel happy when I come to you?"

"No, no, no..." Sheng Ziyang quickly waved his hands, with a nervous expression on his face, "That's not what I mean! I just feel like I'm dreaming!"

Qiu suddenly lowered her head, with a bit of loneliness and guilt in her words: "I know that what happened back then was that I hurt you too much. For the sake of glory and wealth, I have failed you. Now it's been many years, and every time I think of , I feel ashamed in my heart. Even though the deep house compound has inexhaustible splendor and wealth, I haven't been happy for a day in these years. It's a pity that I can't turn back. If I look back, that person will take my life... But now I Don’t be afraid anymore. Because I’ve been depressed all these years, and the doctor said that I still have less than a year to live...Since I learned the bad news, I’ve thought a lot, and I’m even more regretful about the past, especially for you , My heart is full of guilt all the time, in order to make up for the regrets in my life, so... that's why I want to meet you. This way, even if I die, I will have no regrets in my heart."

Qiu Shi became more and more mournful as she spoke, and wiped the silk in the corner of her eyes again and again.

Hearing her confession-filled words, Sheng Ziyang suddenly stood up from the stool, his eyes widened, and he looked shocked: "You, what are you talking about? You, you, still have a year to live?"
