Chapter 222

"Find out everything that happened in the imperial city recently, and report it to me."

Qi Lingchuan rubbed his head, his cold eyes were full of doubts at the moment.

Where is he left behind?
Why does it feel like the current situation is faintly directed towards him?

"Yes." The guard bowed his head in response.

Qi Lingchuan exhaled: "How is Duan Mu now?"

Mentioning Duan Mu, Qi Lingchuan's tone turned eight degrees colder, as if Duan Mu had died eight hundred times in his icy voice
Although, Duan Mu is living a very nourishing life at the moment.

So did the guard.

"Your Highness, the Third Young Master has gotten closer to the Sea Prince in recent days. That day when the Fusheng Tower was assassinated, the Sea Prince appeared with the Third Young Master."

Hearing what the guard said, Duan Mu moved his fingertips slightly.

When did Duan Mu and his second brother get so close?They also went to Fusheng Building together.

Could it be
"I underestimated Duan Mu. That assassination was probably done by Duan Mu."

"It's a good trick."

Qi Lingchuan sneered lowly.

I'm afraid that idiot Qi Linghai is still kept in the dark, this time Duan Mu directed and acted himself, but that idiot just believed it.

The guard quickly raised his head to look at Qi Lingchuan, puzzled and said, "What do you mean?"

"Hmph, the Fusheng Building is not easy, let me keep an eye on it, I want to see what kind of medicine is sold in Duan Mu's gourd."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and told the guards to retreat.

Floating building.

Tu Yaoyao rubbed the note in her hand, it was the news from the spies of Fushenglou.

"Qi Lingchuan seems to have discovered something."

Tu Yaoyao said in a low voice.

"So what, the direction is wrong."

Mochizuki pursed her mouth, knelt down on the side of the imperial concubine's couch, and rested her head on Tu Yaoyao's lap: "Little master, do you really want to abandon us?"

Here we go again, the monster.

Tu Yaoyao don't start.

He is clearly a murderous demon, what kind of little white sheep is he pretending to be?

"Mochizuki, don't disturb the little master." Hua Li picked up Mochizuki's collar.

"Oh." Mochizuki responded aggrievedly, and in the next second, she immediately changed her mood: "Fortunately, Duan Xu is stirring up the muddy water, otherwise Qi Lingchuan would have suspected us a long time ago."

"Now we just have to wait." Haoxue said lightly after changing the incense.

Tuyao glanced at Haoxue, nodded, "Yes, we'll wait for the Queen's flower feast."

There are no flowers to admire in Japan this winter. I just heard that a few days ago, a small country sent a few wintersweet plants to the queen. After traveling through mountains and rivers, they were still blooming proudly. When the queen was happy, she used the pretext of admiring the flowers to give it to the minister. The children arrange a blind date, so that the current forces can be quickly divided.

It is clear at a glance who is kissing and who is not.

Time passed slowly amidst the undercurrents of various forces. For ordinary people, the imperial city in winter seemed to be a little bustling at last.

The assassination of Qi Linghai came to an end. Although the murderer was not caught and let it go, no one mentioned it again, as if it had never happened.

Now the imperial palace is preparing for flower viewing feasts. The common people have never entered the imperial palace in their life. I heard that behind the high walls and glazed tiles, there are noble people covered in silk, each of them, their faces are better than gods.

The common people watched from a distance, today, those nobles from aristocratic families, their noble carriages were driving slowly on the icy road, the cold wind blew the curtains, revealing the faces inside.

Can't help but take a deep breath, she is worthy of being a young lady trained by a rich family.

The carriage drove into the palace until it was no longer seen, and the common people looked away with still unsatisfied intentions.

Today, it seems that there is a little bit of unusualness outside the usual.

They live as usual.

The owner of the steamed stuffed bun shop was yelling, the rouge and gouache peddler was blushing and still smiling, and the old woman was carrying a vegetable basket, arguing non-stop with the vegetable peddler for a few pennies.

Yeah, just a normal day.

Two hours later.

A loud bell rang, and the people in the imperial city put down their work one after another, looking at the direction from which the bell sounded.

There is the Royal Palace.

It was the death knell that sounded just now.

The death knell rings, and the emperor dies.

The faces of the people changed drastically, and they knelt down in the direction of the palace.

The emperor of the Southern Kingdom, like today, drove west on a crane.

In the palace, Qi Lingchuan's eyes widened, and his usual calm and cold face was filled with shock and disbelief at this moment. Looking carefully, there was still a bit of fear in his face.

At this time, blood was all over his body. In the Hall of Harmony where the old emperor was resting, the blood dripped from the couch to his face, and he was holding a long dagger in his hand. The blood in front of him was just It dripped from the dagger in his hand.

At the door, all the people who came to the flower viewing banquet gathered today. They were ministers and wives who brought their children. At the front were the pale-faced queen and concubines.

Several princes also stared at him in surprise and anger.

Eunuch Li knelt on the ground, crying with snot and tears: "Your Majesty, why did you go west?"

"Bastard, how dare you. How dare you attack Father?"

Qi Linghai stepped forward a few steps, grabbed Qi Lingchuan's wrist, and punched Qi Lingchuan on the face.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, without the presence of a second person, Qi Lingchuan was indisputable.

Regicide!

Qi Lingchuan's face was turned to one side after being beaten, and the corner of his mouth was torn and blood flowed out. He seemed to have just recovered, and from the corner of his eyes, he caught a glimpse of Duan Mu by the door, looking at him deeply.

Qi Lingchuan broke away from Qi Linghai and walked towards Duan Mu.

Following Qi Lingchuan's pace, everyone unconsciously took a few steps back.

"It's you!" Qi Lingchuan grabbed Duan Mu's collar, his eyes cracked.

"Fifth Prince, I have been in the Imperial Garden and have never left, and the Proton Mansion has been under surveillance, where do I get the power? Don't you think I framed you?"

Duan Mu looked at Qi Lingchuan sarcastically.

The old emperor was lying on the couch, as if he was dying.

The imperial guards blasted everyone away, and the appearance of the old emperor did not allow others to peep.

At this moment, only the queen and concubines are left, and Duan Mu's words fell into their ears, which seems to be the reason.

"Don't argue anymore, you're just thinking about it, bastard, you can even do such a thing as patricide, the imperial guards, why don't you put this bastard in prison, Eunuch Li, go and ring the death knell Tell the world."

Qi Linghai stared at Qi Lingchuan as if he wanted to eat people.

"Wait! Second prince, your Majesty's bones are still cold. I'm afraid you don't want to see you killing each other. This matter is full of doubts. If you haven't found out the truth, what qualifications do you have to imprison the fifth prince?"

Queen stopped.

She has no children under her knees, and she stood on Qi Lingchuan's side early on. If Qi Lingchuan falls, she must have no good fruit to eat. Therefore, Qi Lingchuan must be kept first now.
