Empress Jinghua: The eunuch is nine thousand years old

Chapter 569 Assassinate Himself
Xia Zijin never expected this to be the reason, the chill that had just risen suddenly fell down, the sudden love words made her froze on the spot, she raised her eyes and bumped into his full of affection, almost drowning her in it, but There is no half-hearted perfunctory.

But at a glance, Xia Zijin knew that what he said was true.Xia Zijin sighed faintly, and struggled out of his arms, "Nonsense, what kind of trouble is this, as a mother, this phenomenon should only happen, it will be fine if it lasts for a while, you don't have to worry."

"Really?" Xia Shengqing looked at her suspiciously, and heaved a sigh of relief. She was pregnant in October and her body was already heavy. If she kept retching like this, he would not want to let Xia Zijin suffer like this.

Xia Zijin nodded earnestly. Just as she was about to speak, she heard a rapid knock on the door. She turned her head instantly. Xiner quickly put down the towel in her hand, put it on the shelf, and got up to open the door. , crashed in directly.

Seeing him like this, Xia Zijin covered her lips and gave a chuckle, then frowned, "What's wrong with you? You're in a panic, is your butt on fire?"

The butler nodded repeatedly, because he was running too fast, he couldn't stop panting, and couldn't speak, Xin'er quickly picked up the teacup on the table and handed it to him.The butler drank it in one gulp, like a cow's drink. After the fire in his throat was extinguished, he wiped his mouth and said, "Princess, Lord Qiantose, something is wrong. The second prince was assassinated."

Xia Zijin raised her head in an instant, her gaze fell on the housekeeper faintly as if soaked in ice, and she licked her lips, "What did you say?"

The housekeeper was startled by her sight, shrunk his head unconsciously, and gritted his teeth when he thought of the spread of news outside, and continued: "The second prince was assassinated, and it was said that... it was the princess and the eldest grandson." His Highness moved his hand in private."

"Bastard!" Xia Zijin flicked his sleeve robe, no matter who did it, it's really a coincidence that he rushed to this point.Xia Zijin gritted her teeth and stood up from Xia Shengqing's arms, Lin Runyu's figure quickly flashed in his mind.

In her opinion, Lin Runyu was the most suspected one. After all, Lin Runyu was forced by her to stand up from the dark to the bright during the previous confrontation between the two in the court hall, which aroused hatred from many parties along the way.With his temperament of vengeance, it is not surprising that he would attack her.As for assassinating Xia Qin, he was naturally afraid that he would attack him first.

If Xia Qin really died at the hands of those assassins, Lin Runyu could follow these rumors and push the matter to her and Xia Qixuan.Xia Zijin pulled Xia Shengqing's sleeve with his fingers, his eyes flickered, and finally let out a faint breath, "Sheng Qing, I need to trouble you to invite Xia Qixuan here."

Those just now were just her guesses, and the possibility that Xia Qixuan became angry from embarrassment and became obsessed with ghosts and attacked Xia Qin could not be ruled out.Therefore, it is still necessary to invite Xia Qixuan to test it out.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the face of the housekeeper standing aside suddenly became strange. He rubbed his hands together, seeming a little embarrassed and helpless, "Princess, this old slave has something to say, His Royal Highness is here now Sitting in the side hall, saying that there is something urgent to see the princess."

At this time, the only urgent matter is probably the assassination of Xia Qin.But Xia Zijin didn't expect him to come so soon, so Xia Shengqing from the province would make a trip.

Xia Qixuan received the news earlier than her, and when he thought that all the rumors outside were aimed at him, he couldn't help feeling flustered, and rushed over after smashing a pair of celadon vases with two ears.He was very anxious in his seat, and drank three cups of tea in a row, only to see Xia Zijin come leisurely, looking like that, he seemed completely unaware of the commotion outside.

"My nephew came so early today, but do you have something to discuss with the princess?" Xia Zijin picked up the teapot, shook it a few times, then let go, folded his palms on his knees, and stared at him quietly.

"Auntie, does she know what's going on outside? She's still so calm, really..." Xia Qixuan didn't hide his anxiety, and went straight to the point, "The second emperor's uncle was assassinated, and it was rumored that it was my aunt and nephew, but my nephew I only found out about this news this morning, let alone that I will attack a blood relative like Second Emperor Uncle."

Xia Qixuan raised four fingers together, raised them above his head, and looked at Xia Zijin swearingly, to show his innocence.Xia Zijin watched him act, the expression on his face remained unchanged, and he still looked at him with a smile.

Seeing her like this, Xia Qixuan felt uneasy, and he didn't dare to let go of his raised palm. The army he secretly cultivated was his trump card. If Xia Zijin really planned to give up on him, the expression in Xia Qixuan's dark eyes would keep changing. , waiting for Xia Zijin to speak.

Just when he was about to continue explaining, Xia Zijin suddenly took a sip from the teacup, and lightly uttered a sentence to dissolve the atmosphere that had just condensed, "This princess naturally believes in you. In this case, the second emperor brother was assassinated, you As a nephew, you should investigate clearly, and if there are traces of those assassins, catch them immediately."

Xia Qixuan breathed a sigh of relief, raised his sleeves, subconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead, and nodded.After waiting for him to leave, Xia Shengqing came in from the outside, sniffing Xia Zijin's hair, and said vaguely, "He is so docile, I'm afraid he has a lot of plans."

"It's a pity that the wolf is ambitious. I have already seen what he wants, and the dragon chair is the most." Xia Zijin fell into his arms and closed his eyes. "There is news from Prince Lin's mansion."

"There is no movement yet." Xia Shengqing hugged her, walked to the bedroom step by step, opened the door, put her on the bed, took off the jade crown on her head, and slept beside her.

These days of intrigue, Xia Zijin was really tired. As soon as his head touched the pillow, he closed his eyes and fell asleep.Xia Shengqing listened to her even breathing, and couldn't help but burst out laughing. He raised his eyes to look at the beam of the bed, and there was a trace of firmness in his eyes.

And after Lin Runyu was designed by Xia Zijin in the court hall, when he returned to the mansion, he grabbed the maidservant and ravaged her until the maidservant cried for mercy, then he kicked her, got up in his outer robe, and grabbed the handmaid on the table. The brush, his eyes flickered for a moment, and a strong killing intent emerged from the bottom of his heart.

Xia Qin has always been ruthless and ruthless, and the most unacceptable thing is betrayal. Now that such a big thing happened, I'm afraid he can't wait to take his own life. In this case, it's better to act first. The tip of the pen touched the white paper, and the ink blotted out quickly.

Soon, there was a hole in the middle of the paper because the ink was too wet. Lin Runyu looked at the waste paper, suddenly threw the brush on the ground, grabbed the paper, crumpled it into a ball, threw it into the copper basin burning charcoal, and gave up. thought.He's doing it now, and it's easy to be suspicious.

Just as he was walking towards the servant girl who was limp on the ground, covered in bruises and full of fear, he heard someone hit the window three times with stones, he stopped immediately, and waved impatiently for the maid to get out .

As if being pardoned, the maid hurriedly grabbed her clothes and ran out in a hurry.Only then did the hidden guard who sent the message outside show up, and told him about Xia Qin's assassination without saying a word.Lin Runyu was startled for a moment, then his face turned livid, and his first reaction was that Xia Zijin had done something deliberately, so as to frame him as the blame. This idea coincided with Xia Zijin's suspicion of him at the first time.

The person who caused this phenomenon was lying on the bed at the moment, his chest was smeared with blood, and he looked extremely weak and was about to die at any moment.The imperial doctor stopped the bleeding for him. Seeing him looking at him coldly, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he pinched the heavy purse on his cuff, "Put it down, Your Highness, I will tell you the truth."

For the last four words, he deliberately emphasized the tone, and the expression on his face felt very sinister no matter how you looked at it.Xia Qin then nodded and fell into a deep sleep again.This assassination was actually arranged by himself.As for the reason, Xia Zijin soon found out, he had been silent for so long, this time was his only chance.

Wei Yuan had already woken up yesterday, and she was sitting in front of the table with a cup of tea in her hands, with an unpredictable expression.Naturally, there was no way to hide Xiaqin's matter from her, but unexpectedly, in order to check and balance her, Xiaqin would actually make a way to control Qingyun, so that Qingyun was extremely dependent on Xiaqin now.

At this moment, Qingyun was standing beside her, looking completely dazed and dazed. Seeing her like this, Wei Yuan sighed involuntarily. Her face remained calm, and a sense of helplessness grew in her heart.

She originally thought that it was a good way to climb up to Xia Qin, but she didn't expect the situation in Da Lai to be so complicated. If she had known, she should have investigated it before she came.It's a pity, whether she wants to or not, because of Qing Yun's existence, she can only be tied to Xia Qin's boat.

Speaking of which, the letter she wrote yesterday should have been sent out of the city by now. I just hope that the ministers she installed in the court can see the code words in her letter. Forget it, Wei Yuan couldn't help but feel ashamed when she had to sit aside and stare at her after she finished writing and checking before forcing her to hand over her contact information and send the letter.

She subconsciously clenched her fists, gritted her teeth, and her eyes were red.As for Xia Zijin, she could only say sorry.

Xia Zijin only guessed about Lin Runyu, but she didn't expect that Xia Qin would send someone to assassinate herself. By the time she realized it, the situation had already changed.

In the early morning of the next day, the prime minister and others were the first to bring up this matter. One by one, they wrote to Xia Zijin to severely punish the assassin who secretly assassinated him. With shrunken palms, he wished to sew his nonsense mouth shut.
