Di Ji Daughter

Chapter 219
Thinking of this, Shui Qingyue frowned involuntarily, and an indescribable feeling welled up in her heart.

"The congratulatory gift from Zuo Xiguo has been received, let's invite the three kings to the table too!" Looking back at Ye Gongyan, the queen mother said with a gloomy expression.No matter how dissatisfied she is with Ye Gongyan, she doesn't want to make any trouble during her happy day.

Following her wink, ten guards quickly stepped forward as instructed and carried down the lion brought by Ye Gongyan.

Opening his mouth slightly, Ye Gongyan seemed to want to say something more, but after thinking about it, he finally gave up!Before he was sure about the purpose of Yunloujue and Duanmuqi, he couldn't get into too much trouble with Shangbeiguo.

He turned around to take his seat, but he stopped suddenly just as he took a step.Looking at the entire hall, there was no empty seat. Now, the Empress Dowager Shangbei invited him to sit first, but there was no seat for him. Are they trying to embarrass him in public?

Thinking of this, Ye Gongyan's complexion immediately sank, and he looked at the queen mother with some unkindness: "Does the queen mother want me to stand up to attend the birthday banquet?"

Staring at him blankly, the queen mother didn't react for a while.

It was Hua Qiansheng who noticed this, Shen Sheng reprimanded Shen Lin, the confidant eunuch chief behind him: "How do you do things? Why didn't you arrange a seat for His Highness the Three Kings on such an important day?" On the surface, he was blaming Shen Lin, but he was complaining about Ye Gongyan in his heart.

Obviously Zuo Xiguo has sent envoys to celebrate birthdays and give presents, who knows why Ye Gongyan came here with such a 'gift'?So it wasn't that they didn't arrange well at all, but that Ye Gongyan himself was rude!
A strange color flashed in his eyes, and Shen Lin bent down and said in panic: "It's my servant's negligence, please punish me by Your Majesty!"

"Okay, the punishment will be settled later, let people prepare seats for the three kings first." Hua Qiansheng ordered in a lukewarm manner.

"Yes!"

Hearing this, Ye Gongyan's face suddenly darkened a bit.Because of their negligence, Hua Qiansheng didn't even have a word of apology.It seems that the growth of Shangbei Kingdom in the past few years has made Hua Qiansheng a lot more courageous!

Soon, the palace people arranged a seat for Ye Gong Yan'an next to the seat of Zuo Xiguo's envoy.

"Third Prince, please take a seat!" Hua Qiansheng opened his lips indifferently.

Glancing at Hua Qiansheng with gloomy eyes, Ye Gongyan's gaze shifted to the banquet.

Eyeing the strange man beside him, Ye Gongyan couldn't help frowning: "Who is this?"

Hearing this, Shui Qingyue, who was seated in the back seat, looked up abruptly, with worries and panic flashing through her deep eyes.

That man was Liu Yi, her subordinate, who came here pretending to be an envoy from the Zuoxi Kingdom.It's just that she is a little puzzled, hasn't she already signaled to them before, asking them to leave when the time comes?How is he still there?There are also two people pretending to be envoys from Xianan Kingdom and Youdong Kingdom. Not only did they not obey the order to retreat, they actually... did they not understand her signal?Still can't get out?or……

"The third prince doesn't know Lord Liu?" Hua Qiansheng asked in surprise.

Ye Gongyan frowned slightly: "What does the Shangbei Emperor mean?"

"Master Liu is an envoy sent by your country to celebrate his birthday and give gifts. The third prince doesn't know Mr. Liu?" Hua Qiansheng asked suspiciously.

Seeing that Liu Yi's posing as an envoy was about to be exposed, Shui Qingyue's heart couldn't help but tighten a bit.Planning to find a way to help him escape?Or simply advance the action directly?

"Master Liu?"

Ye Gongyan did not answer Hua Qiansheng's words in a hurry, but pressed Liu Yi with sharp eyes, and asked coldly: "Who are you? What is the purpose of pretending to be my Zuoxi envoy?"

As soon as Ye Gongyan's words came out, everyone in the banquet was shocked, even Hua Qiansheng's mother and son were surprised!So Mr. Liu is pretending?how come?
Just when Shui Qingyue decided to advance the action, Liu Yi's faint voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "What is the third prince talking about? If the next official is really a fake envoy, then he will step down when the third prince enters the palace." I ran away with a guilty conscience! Will you wait until now?"

"That's what I said, but I really don't know you, and when I set off, my father didn't say anything, and sent someone else! Then you..."

Before Ye Gongyan could finish speaking, Liu Yi interrupted him: "The emperor is the king of a country, and your highness is just one of many princes, it is impossible for the emperor to tell you everything. Unless, you are my Zuo Xifu future heir!"

"You..." Ye Gongyan's eyes bulged suddenly, and he glared at him with gritted teeth.What the hell did he mean by that?Does it mean that the emperor didn't take him seriously at all, or looked down on him, so that's why he sent another envoy here?

Looking at Ye Gongyan's face, Shui Qingyue's tense heart couldn't help but relax.She really didn't realize that Liu Yi's mind was so flexible.With just a few words, the crisis was resolved.

At this time, in the eyes of others, the reason why Zuo Xiguo sent two envoys to celebrate his birthday was undoubtedly a matter of party struggle within Zuo Xiguo.So I didn't take it too seriously.

At this moment, a silver light flashed.

"Ah!" Followed by Ye Gongyan's painful scream
When everyone came back to look, they saw a dart emitting a cold light stably inserted into Ye Gongyan's chest.In the blink of an eye, the blood on his chest turned black.

"Ah!" Following Ye Gongyan's fall, the hall was in chaos for a while.

Compared to other women, Shui Qingyue was extraordinarily calm, sitting there motionless, staring at Hua Qiansheng who fell in front of her with deep and complicated eyes.

The dart's injury wouldn't kill him, but the poison on the dart was hard to say.

She had the ability to save him, but when she thought of Feng Liuxue's indifference and unfeeling towards her, she hesitated.I want to see how Merry Merry looks in pain if Ye Gongyan is really dead.

"Shut up, everyone, sit down!" The chaos in the hall made Hua Qiansheng sternly roar.

In just an instant, the hall was so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling could be clearly heard.

The atmosphere is solidified...

Looking at Ye Gongyan on the ground, Hua Qiansheng frowned, hesitated for a moment, and then told Shen Lin: "Hurry up and carry the third prince to the side hall, and then go to the Qing hall to ask the immortal doctor to treat the third prince's personal illness! "

Originally, he didn't want to send out medical immortal Baisheng to diagnose and treat Ye Gongyan's injuries, but after thinking about it carefully, if Ye Gong Yanzhen had an accident in Shangbei Kingdom, it would be difficult for Zuo Xiguo to explain it!Especially with Empress Zuo Xi, given how much Empress Zuo Xi attached importance to him, even if Emperor Zuo Xi could pass the test, Queen Zuo Xi might not be able to pass it.What's more, Queen Zuoxi's natal family is the Feng family who controls Zuoxi's heavy army.

When it comes to the Feng family, the first daughter of the Feng family, the eighth princess of Zuo Xiguo, that powerful and vicious woman, Feng Qingying!
He really didn't want to become an enemy of that woman Feng Qingying because of Ye Gongyan, a person who was not to be feared!

Looking at Ye Gongyan who was being carried down, Shui Qingyue's eyes narrowed involuntarily at that moment.What did Hua Qiansheng just say?Go to the Palace of Qing Dynasty and ask the Immortal Doctor to diagnose and heal Ye Gongyan?So Master Baisheng lives in Shangbei Palace now?Why?Forced or voluntary?
Looking back, Hua Qiansheng's eyes fell on the general Cheng Qing, and he said angrily: "Find out where this dart came from, catch the assassin, and punish him severely!"

Cheng Qing stood up and cupped his fists: "I obey the order!"

However, as soon as Cheng Qing took his steps, a lingering and long-lasting fragrance wafted in the wind.

Smelling the scent coming from the tip of her nose, Shui Qingyue's eyes tightened immediately, and then she turned her head to look at the source of the scent.

Very poisonous, Drunken Dreaming!

I just don't know what the other party's purpose is!
She didn't make a sound, let alone take any action, Shui Qingyue just sat indifferently, waiting for the good show with a curious expression on her face.

Soon, everyone at the banquet seemed to be drunk, and their expressions gradually became dazed.

For the sake of unnecessary trouble, Shui Qingyue also pretended to be poisoned, squinted her eyes half-closed, and lay down on the table with a 'blurred' gaze, resting her head with her arms, and casually watched the good show that was about to start .

Such a situation reminded her of something similar that happened in Zuo Xiguo many years ago.It was also at the palace banquet that An Ting carefully planned such an assassination in order to avenge her father.It's a pity that the result was a bit sad, but she died in her hands in the end, and she almost lost her life because of serious injuries.

Now, I don't know what the result will be!
Soon, dozens of masked men in black rushed into the palace.The leading man in black looks like a woman.

After checking the situation in the hall, one of the men in black respectfully reported to the leading woman: "Report to the master, everyone in the hall has been poisoned and confused."

His cold eyes swept across the faces of the people at the banquet, and the woman in black, who was the leader, ordered directly and sternly: "Except for Hua Qiansheng, there will be no one left in the palace!"

Hearing this, Shui Qingyue frowned involuntarily.Killed all except Hua Qiansheng?Who are these people?Is it to avenge Hua Qiansheng?Or to seize the country?
The man in black stared at the leading woman in surprise, a little in disbelief: "They are all important ministers of my Shangbei Kingdom, will killing them all..."

Before the man in black finished speaking, the woman in charge said disdainfully: "Important ministers? I think rebellious ministers are the real important ministers and loyal ministers. They all died in the rebellion that year! But now these people... hehe ...Death is not a pity!"

The man in black disapproved: "But I really killed them all. My subordinates are worried that I will cause chaos in the North Congress. What's more, there are many nobles from other countries among them. My subordinates are worried..."

The leading woman said indifferently: "There is nothing to worry about. Instead of letting him Hua Qiansheng get the country of Shangbei Kingdom, I would rather destroy it."

The man in black didn't understand: "Why does the master have to destroy the Shangbei Kingdom? Why don't you become the emperor yourself and control the country?"

Pain flashed in the dark eyes, and the leading woman said quietly: "I don't deserve to sit in that seat."
