Chapter 63 The Dead Man
Feng Jin frowned, grabbed Tang Qinghe's arm suddenly, and pulled him behind him.

The accident happened so suddenly, Tang Qinghe looked at the queen's proudly standing back in shock, looking over her shoulders, Tang Qinghe saw the maid who delivered the food, the maid who served the wine, and the servants who waited for orders from the plate one after another. Down below, under the table, and behind the curtains, swords and daggers were pulled out, and they rushed towards Feng Jin like crazy...

The main hall was in chaos, all kinds of cups and dishes were dropped on the floor, and chaotic voices came and went.

Fortunately, there are no female relatives among the guests, otherwise it would be even more chaotic.

Some of the less courageous ones were so frightened that they got into the bottom of the drill, trembling, and some bold ones grabbed a chair and rushed towards the assassin, but were either slashed by the assassin or kicked away by the assassin, which was the most shocking. It was Qi Che who was actually pretty good at it.

And the empress stood there so proudly, watching everything with cold eyes, with no fear on her gorgeous face, and a sneer of disdain on her lips, as if she didn't pay attention to these assassins at all.

Seeing this scene, the guests gradually calmed down, and those who got under the table also crawled out. Those who had no strength to restrain themselves, and those who only acted with enthusiasm no longer rushed up to get in the way. Except for Qi Che, who had been with An An Wei fought side by side.

Both Shen Wenqing and Wuming didn't make a move, standing in front of Feng Jin on one left and one on the right, protecting Feng Jin.

There are a total of more than a dozen assassins. They move quickly and methodically, as if they have received special training. Every one of them rushes towards the place where Feng Jin is regardless of life or death. rush forward.

Even so, the assassin was quickly captured by the hidden guards, tied up into rice dumplings and thrown on the ground.

"Say, who sent you to kill Her Majesty the Queen?"

Shen Wenqing asked sharply, none of the assassins said anything, the expression on their faces was very indifferent, the kind of indifference that didn't care about life and death, their eyes were empty, and they didn't even have a focal length.

"They don't know what to say. These are dead soldiers raised since childhood. They only know how to obey orders. They are not afraid of death or torture, and there is nothing that can threaten them and make them speak!"

Wuming said coldly, he glanced at a hidden guard, "Look at what marks they have on their bodies!"

The dark guard stripped off an assassin's clothes, and there was a circular logo branded on the chest, with strange patterns painted on it, crooked and intertwined. In the large intertwined patterns, there seemed to be a pair of faint green, like The eyes of the snake eye all night.

The hidden guard took off another assassin's clothes, and the same logo was branded on his chest.

"The subordinates have never seen these signs. Has Mr. Shen seen them?"

Wuming asked, and Shen Wenqing shook her head, "Wenqing is well-read, but he has never seen such a thing."

"If you don't say anything, kill them all!"

Feng Jin said coldly.

After several muffled bangs, the assassins all fell to the ground, with a glaring bloodstain on their necks, the blood flowed into a river, bright and glaring, and a strong smell of blood wafted in the air.

Feng Jin stood there, watching the dark guards massacre the captured assassins with cold eyes, with a faint smile on the corner of her lips, when the person closest to her was killed, a few drops of blood spattered on Feng Jin On his face, he looked a little scary.

The green-clothed man, whose face was ashen-colored from being frightened, finally regained his composure, took out a plain white silk handkerchief from his bosom, and handed it to Feng Jin respectfully. blood stains.

Everyone was silent like a cicada, not daring to speak out.

He Yuanwai was already so frightened that he sat on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time. When everything was over, he crawled up to Feng Jin, shaking like chaff, "Your Majesty, the grass people really don't know what's going on. Ah, all of this has nothing to do with grass people..."

He thought that receiving Her Majesty the Queen tonight would make the He family rise to the sky in one step. Who would have thought that if such a thing happened, if it could not be cleared up, the He family would not rise to the sky in one step, but the whole family of more than 100 people would go to see Lord Hades together.

"I know it has nothing to do with you. These people are all disguised to sneak in. Your servant is probably dead long ago."

As soon as the words were finished, the butler ran in with an ashen face, and shouted incoherently, "Master, it's bad, many people died in a miscellaneous room in the backyard, and they were all servant girls from Meiyuan..."

Looking at the corpses and blood all over the floor, the butler's voice stopped abruptly. He looked at those corpses in horror, rolled the whites of his eyes, and passed out.

He Yuanwai sat slumped on the ground, his face was ashen, and his whole body was shaking non-stop.

"Their deaths were all implicated by me. I will send people to bury them properly and appease their families. I also swear to you all that one day, I will find these criminals who have committed the most heinous crimes and dig them out. Uncover the masters behind the scenes, cut them into pieces, and comfort the innocent souls in heaven!"

Feng Jin looked at those corpses coldly, his cold pool-like eyes were frighteningly cold.

The audience was silent.

"Wen Qing, stay and investigate this matter thoroughly to see if you can find any useful clues."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Feng Jin was about to leave with Wuming and Chu Li, but for some reason, he stopped hesitantly and looked at Tang Qinghe hesitantly.

Although Tang Qinghe was frightened at first, he had seen the world, and soon calmed down. Seeing the Queen looking at him, Tang Qinghe pondered for a moment, and asked in a deep voice, "Does Your Majesty have something to say to Qinghe?" ?”

"Originally, I wanted to say a thousand words to you, but now I can't say it, and I can't say it."

Tang Qinghe was startled, and asked subconsciously, "Why?"

Feng Jin sighed faintly, "Blood and rain are always indispensable around me, so why bother you? If you get hurt in the future, in my heart..."

Feng Jin hesitated to speak, took a deep look at Tang Qinghe, and walked away.

Until Feng Jin's tall and elegant back disappeared at the door, Tang Qinghe still hadn't recovered from his senses, thinking about the Queen's unfinished words with a dazed expression.

At the critical moment just now, the Queen's subconscious action of pushing him behind to protect him caused Tang Qinghe a great shock in his heart.

He finally confirmed that the Empress liked him. That subconscious action was from the heart. At that critical moment, Her Majesty the Empress had no time to think about the pros and cons. Everything she did was instinctive.

The group left the plum garden. Feng Jin was about to get into the carriage when a clear voice came from behind, "Your Majesty, please wait a moment."

Feng Jin turned her head and saw that it was Qi Che.

Qi Che ran over and asked straight to the point, "Your Majesty really likes Tang Qinghe?"

Feng Jin smiled, neither admitted nor denied, but said flatly, "This is my private matter."

"Your Majesty is the emperor, and His Majesty's private affairs are also the affairs of the world, especially the position of the imperial concubine, which is even more related to the court situation. If your majesty likes Tang Qinghe, you can accept him as a male favourite, but you must not let him be an imperial concubine!"

"Who I appoint as the emperor's husband has nothing to do with the second son of Qi, right?"

Feng Jin's tone was a little cold, and he seemed a little unhappy.

Qi Che thought she was angry because of Tang Qinghe, so he frowned and said, "Tang Qinghe's talent is all blown out, he doesn't have much real talent, and he has no strength to restrain a chicken, and his majesty needs to protect him at the critical moment of life and death. ..."

Feng Jin's face suddenly turned cold, and he said coldly, "Qi Che, I said before that this is my business and has nothing to do with you! If you have good suggestions on government affairs, governance of the country, and people's livelihood, I welcome it very much. , but if you continue to comment on my private affairs, I will never forgive you!"

Feng Jin said, leaving Qi Che standing in the cold wind with a dejected expression, and got into the carriage with a flick of his sleeves.

Watching the luxurious carriage disappear into the night, Qi Che frowned. Just as he was about to get on the horse and leave, he suddenly heard a low laugh from beside him. Qi Che turned his head and saw Tang Qinghe standing at the door with a mocking expression on his face , "Slandering His Majesty, Qi Che, you are not as arrogant as you say!"

"You are not qualified to be an emperor's husband!"

"I'm not qualified, are you enough?"

Tang Qinghe sneered, "My father is the Minister of the Ministry of Officials and one of the auxiliary ministers. I am the eldest son of the Tang family, and my talent spreads far and wide. If I am not qualified, who is enough? Qi Che, you don't think you want to enter Palace, so you want to squeeze me out? Unfortunately, His Majesty likes me, and if you speak ill of me, His Majesty will only be bored!"

"you!"

Qi Che, who was furious, was about to make a move when he was stopped by the servant who followed him. Not knowing what the servant said, Qi Che withdrew his fist, gave Tang Qinghe a hard look, got on his horse and left.

Tang Qinghe also boarded the carriage and left.

Shen Wenqing came out of the door quietly, looked at the direction Qi Che and the others were going away, smiled mockingly, and looked coldly at the bushes by the roadside, "Come out, I know you're coming!"
