The almighty crazy concubine is tough on the audience, and the prince passes the knife behind him
Chapter 167 The Assassin Appears
Amidst the solemn sound of bells and drums, the emperor began the first step of the enthronement ceremony, taking officials to worship heaven, earth and ancestral halls, followed by the coronation ceremony.
The procedures of these ancestor worship and enthronement ceremonies are too complicated, and every step must be done according to the auspicious time. It is very rigorous. Even if Baili Changyao was the prince before him, he still needs a special etiquette minister to remind and guide him.
Although Baili Changyao's enthronement celebration was a little hasty, the scene was still grand. More than [-] people stood on the venue, flags were flying, the momentum was huge, and the ceremonial guards were majestic.
Cheng Qingqing and her younger brother, Li Beimo, stood in front of the officials. Next to them stood King Jin, King Xiaoyao, a few people from the royal family, the prime minister and other important officials of the court.
Today, she was dressed in a complicated and luxurious princess palace dress, with many luxurious jewelry on her head, which was so heavy that her neck almost broke.
The younger brother Bailiyi wore a bright yellow prince's python robe with four claws and a purple gold crown on his head. Junyi's face, which was slightly childish, also had a bit of power and domineering look.
Li Beimo was also wearing a prince's python robe. He came to attend the enthronement ceremony of Emperor Daxing as the prince of Fengjin Kingdom.
Pei Zhiran from Baifeng Kingdom, Yin Tianyou from Jinping Kingdom, and Zhuo Hongzhi from Chiyun Kingdom also came, but they were honored guests and were arranged in a relatively back place.
Half an hour had passed, but the ceremony official on the high platform was still reading a long and obscure memorial text.
Cheng Qingqing's ears were ringing, and since she hadn't closed her eyes all night last night, she felt drowsy. However, she steeled herself and opened her eyes to pay attention to everything around her.
There may still be Si Wenchang's remnants lurking in Zhongyun City. Today, when the father ascends the throne, these people will definitely be waiting for the opportunity.
At this moment, she saw a eunuch carrying a tray and walking up the side steps to the high platform.
She recognized this man. He was the apprentice of Eunuch De. He also worked as Zhen Ming's spies in the palace. There were four of them, and they were all serving their father in the Mingqing Palace.
Zhen Ming has now been promoted by Baili Changyao as the commander of the Imperial Guard, in charge of the security of the palace.
He was also standing on the high platform at the moment, guarding the emperor, his sharp eyes always paying attention to the surrounding situation.
Suddenly, her eyes narrowed slightly.
"What's wrong?" Li Beimo, who was standing next to him, felt her breath fluctuation and turned his head to ask her.
"As expected, there are still Si Wenchang's remnants in Zhongyun City." She sneered.
After hearing this, Li Beimo also looked around cautiously.
The scene was a bit noisy, so he listened carefully.
At this moment, the official said something, and the eunuch slowly walked towards the new emperor with a tray.
Cheng Qingqing's eyes suddenly turned sharp, and a sniper rifle instantly appeared in her hand.
Quickly aim and hand pull the trigger.
"Bang -" the crisp sound of gunshots pierced the sky.
Zhen Ming felt a powerful sound of breaking through the air pass by his ears, and he was suddenly shocked and his spine ran cold.
"Plop..." The eunuch fell heavily at his feet. There was a big bloody hole in his head, and blood was spurting out.
The tray also fell to the ground, and the items on it rolled out, including a shining dagger.
"There is an assassin! Protect him quickly!" Zhen Ming exclaimed, pulling out his sword to protect him in front of the emperor.
Cheng Qingqing and Li Beimo jumped up very quickly, with several people protecting the emperor in the middle.
At this time, Li Beimo also had a short-barreled light machine gun in his hand.
"There is an assassin! Protect him quickly!"
Something suddenly happened, and the scene suddenly became chaotic. Baili Yi and civil and military officials under the high platform all ran up to protect him.
Bailiyi's leg injury was not fully healed yet. As soon as he ran up, his legs were shaking with pain, and he fell down and sat down.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince..." Xiu Mei helped him up.
He was ordered by Cheng Qingqing to protect the prince today.
"Bang bang bang-"
Cheng Qingqing raised her gun and fired three shots into the sky, "Don't panic, everyone!"
Her voice was filled with inner strength, and she succeeded in making some people stop, but there were still more than a dozen guards rushing upwards, shouting loudly as they rushed: "There is an assassin, catch the assassin quickly..."
Cheng Qingqing's face turned cold, and she pointed the black gun at these people, "Are you all deaf? Stand back for me, princess!"
These imperial guards were only a few steps away from reaching the high platform, looking at the emperor with worried eyes.
"Don't you have to hear what the princess said? Everyone, retreat!" Zhen Ming also shouted.
"Yes!" The Imperial Guard glanced at the gun in her hand, turned around and walked down the steps.
Cheng Qingqing lowered her gun and turned around to check on the eunuch.
Suddenly, the body that had just turned halfway turned back and raised the gun in his hand.
"Tut, chug, chug..."
Li Beimo, who was next to her, had already shot before her and finished the entire magazine.
All these dozen people were shot and rolled down the steps, followed by more than a dozen black caltrops.
It turns out that these Imperial Guards just pretended to turn around, took out the black caltrops hidden on their bodies, and were about to pull the fuse to detonate.
Many people below the stage saw the scene just now, but they were too far away and had no time to stop it.
Li Beimo's shot of bullets averted a crisis.
"Damn it!" Zhen Ming was very annoyed. These people were all his subordinates, but they were actually moles!
Although this time it was thrilling, no ministers rushed forward.
Bailiyi didn't move either. He knew that he was now a burden.
Cheng Qingqing stood on the high platform and looked coldly at the body that was still rolling down.
Obviously, this was a planned assassination. Let the eunuch take action first. If he didn't succeed, it would definitely cause chaos on the scene. Then other killers would take advantage of the chaos to carry out the second assassination.
"Xiu Mei, check it out," she said.
"Yes." Xiu Mei took the order and stepped forward to inspect the body.
Zhen Ming also checked the eunuch's body and found that there were marks on the man's arm, "Damn it, he turned out to be the Golden Shadow Guard."
Delai was so frightened that he fell to his knees, "Your Majesty, I really didn't know that Xiao Fuzi was a spy. I am guilty!"
Cheng Qingqing suddenly said: "Eunuch De, this person is not Eunuch Fu."
"What..." Zhen Ming understood immediately. Looking closely at the roots behind this person's ears, he found the clue.
"This person's face is fake." Zhen Ming tore off a thin human skin mask from the dead eunuch's face, revealing an unfamiliar face.
"This man is really not Mr. Fu."
Cheng Qingqing walked up to Baili Changyao and saw that he looked very unhappy. She took out a pill and gave it to him, "Father, it's okay. You will feel better if you take this medicine."
"Yeah." Baili Changyao hummed, took the pill and put it in his mouth.
Soon, the bodies on and off the stage were cleared away, and the enthronement ceremony continued.
Cheng Qingqing looked at the sky, with a strong murderous look in her eyes.
Si Wenchang! After the New Year, I will find you even if you run away to the ends of the earth.
The procedures of these ancestor worship and enthronement ceremonies are too complicated, and every step must be done according to the auspicious time. It is very rigorous. Even if Baili Changyao was the prince before him, he still needs a special etiquette minister to remind and guide him.
