Royal study.

The little emperor was reading history, the history books were boring, and the weather was stuffy, like the depression before the rainstorm. In addition, ice mirrors were placed in the hall to cool down, which made people drowsy.His movements of turning the pages of the book became slower and slower, and his eyelids became heavier and heavier...

It wasn't until the pen in his hand fell off that the little emperor suddenly woke up. On the one hand, he was frightened that he had dozed off, and on the other hand, he was afraid of being blamed, so he immediately looked at the Taifu behind the desk with a guilty conscience.

"..." The man was dumbfounded, and the little emperor called out, "Teacher... Xie Taifu?"

After calling three times in a row, Xie Yan let out a cry, and picked up the book on the table: "Your Majesty has finished reading the third volume, so let me tell you about it..."

The little emperor reminded: "The third volume was taught two days ago, and today the Taifu should talk about the fourth volume." Seeing Xie Yan's absent-minded look, he thought for a while, "The Taifu is worried about tonight's palace banquet. ?”

Xie Yan smiled: "I have nothing to worry about."

For some reason, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, probably because the bad weather today affected his mood, so he picked up the book and began to tell the little emperor about ancient times.

What is there to worry about? He and Pei Jun have made arrangements, and the strong guards brought by Xidi from Honglu Temple outside the palace are all under the control of Yanling Guard.

Time passed in a hurry, and it was night in a blink of an eye.

It was getting dark very early today, maybe a heavy rain is coming, and the air is wrapped in sticky humidity.Since he recovered from the low-grade fever last time, Xie Yan is no longer afraid of rainy days as the imperial doctor said, but this ghostly weather still makes him uncomfortable.

As the Grand Tutor, Xie Yan was required to stand in the forefront of the ministers according to his rank, and entered the hall with the singing and drinking.

The hall is brightly lit.

Because he was promoted so quickly, he could almost be said to have been airborne, and he didn't need to go to court, and he only worked as a teacher in the palace.Even if all the courtiers heard the news of Grand Tutor Xie, they heard that Xie Yan's dementia had recovered for a while, and then heard that his old illness had relapsed. This was the first time they saw the "Teacher" in person.

Originally, everyone was cautious because of this inexplicable resumption of the palace banquet, but after seeing Xie Yan who appeared at the front of the seats, they couldn't help being a little curious.While everyone was chatting and whispering, most of them talked about the gossip about "Teacher Xie" during this period of time.

But after a while, the deserted hall became lively.

At the last palace banquet, Xie Yan was covered in necklaces and hairpins, which is beautiful as long as it is beautiful, but it is so funny that others often regard him as a laughing stock.

Today, Xie Yan is dressed in a red robe, and his demeanor is calm and indifferent, even if someone goes up to chat with him, he can handle it freely, and he is quite aristocratic.It was completely different from the timid and cowardly idiot before.

According to the Imperial Academy, the little emperor has improved a lot during this period, and it seems that it is all thanks to Grand Tutor Xie, which makes everyone feel a little more cautious about him.

Just as they were gossiping about their newly promoted Grand Tutor, Ning Xi, the head of the hall, sang: "Your Majesty has arrived! The Regent has arrived!"

Everyone stood up and saluted, and after paying their respects, they sat down. Xie Yan looked, just as the regent's eyes turned around, and the eyes of both sides collided with each other, and they were entangled for a while.

With a smile on his face, Pei Jun suddenly raised his hand and touched his neck. From the perspective of others, it might just be that his collar was uncomfortable.But Xie Yan paused, then glared at him, and hastily pulled up his inner collar to cover up some ambiguous red marks.

Last night, Pei Jun didn't know what was going on, knowing that it was so important to attend the banquet today, he pressed him and gnawed countless mouthfuls, and when he got up this morning to change his clothes, Xie Yan had to choose the one with a high collar, which was almost impossible I can't cover it.

Xie Yan took two sips of wine, suppressing the scolding towards him in his heart.But also because of Pei Jun's intimate and casual gestures, the anxiety in Xie Yan's heart was relieved a bit.

While speaking, the outside of the hall sang: "The Sidi Envoy has arrived—"

All the ministers raised their spirits one after another, and the regent at the top also restrained his jokes and frowned to look at the visitor.

Seeing the Xidi mission again after more than two months, the group looked dejected, with gloomy clouds on their heads, but they still had to force a smile on their faces. He entered the temple half supported, and almost fell to the ground several times when he worshiped and sat down.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the current situation is in the hands of the regent, seeing the mournful appearance of this group of Sidi barbarians, they sneered.

The deputy envoy looked around, trying to secretly contact the palace servants whom they had bribed before, who would have thought that all the palace servants in the palace were embarrassed, his face changed slightly, and he lowered his head and whispered to the princess for a while.Princess Xidi frowned, but managed to maintain her face, pretending to be calm, and accepted the toast from the officials.

Suddenly, the regent above said: "Some time ago, there were traitors in my Dayu Palace, intending to assassinate the mission. In order to ensure the safety of the mission, we had to arrange elite soldiers to guard day and night. I wonder if the envoys are still used to eating in the palace?"

The princess swears, there is no assassin, it is clearly an excuse for you to put us under house arrest!She glanced at the muddy Ninth Prince who could not support the wall beside her, quickly put down the wine cup, stood up and said, "Thank you Your Royal Highness, may the light of the gods shine on you, and we are all well... I don't know, this assassin has been arrested and brought to justice." ?”

"It's natural." The Regent's tone was light, and he glanced at the Ninth Prince who was sitting slumped, "I see that your prince's complexion is not good, but he is not feeling well? Can you call the imperial doctor to see?"

The princess gritted her teeth, "Brother Nine Emperors...he's just a little unacceptable and weak. Our accompanying medical officer has diagnosed and treated Brother Huang, and he is fine. Thank you for your concern."

"It's fine, princess please." The regent lowered his eyes and wanted to toast her, but just as he raised his arm, he shook as if he was powerless, spilling most of the wine, and Ning Xi hurriedly stepped forward to wipe it for him.

The princess subconsciously said, "Your Highness, are you injured?"

The regent waved his hand and ordered Ning Xi to retreat, and his tone was unpredictable: "It's okay, it's just that I accidentally scratched my arm when I was catching the assassin. This assassin is ruthless, and it took a lot of effort to catch him." Put a lot of effort into it. Speaking of which, you all know this assassin..."

The princess had a bad feeling, he glanced at the "Ninth Prince", the dog was already trembling all over, it was only supported by Sidi's servants beside him so it didn't collapse.The princess had no choice but to bite the bullet and answer: "I don't know, who dared to assassinate in the Dayu Palace?"

The regent glanced at the Ninth Prince, and said with a sneer, "It's ridiculous to say that that assassin not only mingled with your Xidi mission, but even claimed to be the Ninth Prince of Xidi."

As soon as this remark came out, the entire hall was shocked, and all the ministers whispered to each other, making a commotion.

The Ninth Prince at the banquet heard that his shoulders collapsed, the blood on his face faded, and the princess broke out in a cold sweat. She secretly kicked the limp Ninth Prince to sit up.But the matter has come to this point, no matter who Pei Jun catches, Xidi will never admit that he is Tuvoluqian.

Deputy Xidi next to him naturally understood the pros and cons of this situation, forced a laugh and said: "This gangster is really ridiculous! Our Ninth Prince has been weak and sick since he was a child, and it is difficult to draw his bow. It is not good for this assassin to pretend to be our Ninth Prince! Haha ,Ha ha."

The regent also laughed twice, rubbing the wine cup: "Gu didn't believe it at first...Ji Shuxian, since you belong to me, it's up to you to say it."

"Yes, Your Highness." Ji Shuxian attended the meeting and knelt down to report, "A new batch of servants were recruited in the minister's mansion before, and one of the slaves went to the prison to deliver meals to the minister, and happened to see the man who was being interrogated. The assassin was shocked, and even knocked over the food box. The minister was suspicious, and after questioning... this little slave is actually a fugitive slave from Xidi, and he firmly proves that the assassin is the Ninth Prince."

Xidi's deputy envoy was horrified when he heard the words: "It's nonsense! How dare you slander my prince!"

The regent pressed his hand impatiently: "Is it slander, let him confront everyone face to face, won't the truth be revealed? Someone, bring it up!"

Biting her nails, the princess saw two palace servants leading a beautiful young man up to the hall. She glanced at them and saw a pair of blue eyes, which seemed to be of Sidi blood, and she couldn't help frowning.

Immediately afterwards, several elite soldiers escorted another person in: "Hurry up! Go in!"

The man was filthy, with disheveled hair and chains around his wrists and ankles.Being pushed and shouted, he walked forward with his head drooping.

The princess saw half of the face from the dirty hair, and she covered her mouth instantly, and the envoy also saw it—that person, that person was the missing Xi Luoyun!

On the way to Dayu, the princess found that "Xi Luoyun" was not pleasing to her eyes. He was just a subject of the Ninth Prince, and was lucky to be a meager envoy. Empty the deputy envoy and others, as if he has become the head of the mission.

Even the Ninth Prince obeyed him.

This Xi Luoyun is really not a good thing!She is still involved now!

The princess was at a loss in the face of such a situation, and on weekdays she would fight for favor with other sisters, and those little tricks were not up to the table, not to mention that her current opponent was the regent of Dayu, whom the kings of all countries feared the most. king!

The princess was a little panicked.

The hatchback was escorted to the front of the hall, Xidi Xiaonu plopped down on his knees, and kowtowed a few times firmly.

Ji Shuxian sternly said: "Li Nu, the Regent, please take a closer look, who is this person in front of you?!"

Li Nu looked up tremblingly, then immediately raised his hand and pointed at him and said, "It's him, the Ninth Prince! Even a gray slave can recognize him!"

Regardless of whether this "Assassin" is the real Ninth Prince or not, just because he is Xi Luoyun is enough to cause trouble for Da Yu!Naxidi's deputy envoy's face changed drastically, and he strode forward to slap Li Nu: "You bastard wild slave, who ordered you?!"

The raccoon slave closed his eyes in fright.

Xie Yan kept silent because this was not his home court, but he couldn't help frowning when he saw the situation. Just as he was about to raise his knees, Ji Shuxian stepped in front of Li Nu and blocked the angry Xidi deputy. Make, pinch his arm and throw him back heavily.

The deputy envoy was staggered by the fall, and he still couldn't stand still. Ji Shuxian looked back at Li Nu, seeing that he was fine, and asked coldly, "Is the deputy envoy trying to kill someone?"

Tu Fulu, who was in a state of embarrassment over there, stared and murmured, "Kill! Kill...Kill! Kill!"

Li Nu immediately turned over and knelt down: "I didn't slander him! When I was young, I was with the Ninth Prince in the phantom troupe of the Xidi court, and I saw him with my own eyes! The Ninth Prince was vicious, and after being recognized by the royal family, he felt revenge and killed the slave. Master and senior brothers and sisters, I have a sworn feud with the Ninth Prince, there is absolutely no way to admit my mistake! This is the Ninth Prince! The one sitting over there is a fake!"

The scene was chaotic for a while, even if this shocking secret was handed over to the people of Sidi for interrogation, it would be difficult to come to a conclusion within ten days and half a month, let alone this place is Dayu!

The Xidi mission was only ordered to come to negotiate peace, and marry the princess by the way. This is a happy event. They did not plan to break up with Dayu at all, so no ministers came over, and only sent a deputy envoy who is good at making peace .

He had originally planned to go back after talking peacefully with him, who would have thought that such a thing would happen? !

Li Nu was afraid that everyone would not believe him, so he continued: "Xidi's illusion troupe will tattoo every child on the back to identify their identities. If your highness doesn't believe it, you can tell the head of the illusion troupe to confront him in the palace and order someone to check! See if there is something wrong with him. There are no tattoos, or scars that he branded off by himself!"

Not long after, the head of the imprisoned phantom troupe was brought up. She trembled and didn't know what happened. When she heard that she was only asked to identify the tattoo, she hurriedly said that it was indeed the case, and stepped forward trembling.

Li Nu took off his clothes in public, revealing a tattoo in the shape of a five-petal flower on his lower back, and then peeled off the "Assassin"'s clothes. There was indeed a burnt scar at the same position on his lower back, and there was still a faint residual tattoo paint in the hideous place color.

Sidi is a different herb. The pigment used by the phantom troupe to tattoo children is extracted from a special petal. This pigment penetrates the skin and penetrates deep into the texture. When the body temperature rises, the color will change from green to red, which is very beautiful , even cannonballs cannot completely eliminate it.You can tell at a glance.

To prove it, a ladle of hot water was poured on the bodies of Li Nu and Tuvoluqian, and the remaining pigment turned bright red as expected.

Everyone was shocked, and the Sidi mission was even more shocked.

Over the years, Xidi has always had some rumors about the life experience of the Ninth Prince, but the royal family did not admit it, so everyone naturally did not mention it.Seeing his family's scandal being exposed in the open by the people of Dayu, it is tantamount to slapping Xidi in the face in public.

In such a big mess, there are assassins, real and false nine princes, and diplomatic relations between the two countries. The deputy envoy is a soft eggplant, and he lost his mind in an instant, and looked at the princess embarrassingly.

The princess hated in her heart: Do I have an idea? !

How dare this Tu Fuluxie do such a bold thing? !

Although the weather is sweltering, once the hot water dissipated, coupled with people's prying eyes as if they were looking at rare objects, Li Nu was always timid, but now he was trembling slightly in the place where countless eyes gathered.Ji Shuxian immediately picked up the clothes on the ground, wrapped them around the raccoon slave, and said in a low voice, "It's okay, just get up."

Li Nu took a look at him, felt somewhat relieved for no reason, and moved aside silently.

But even so, since it was related to the royal court of Xidi, nothing could be done about them. At most, they would be imprisoned and sent back to Xidi, and it would be up to Xidi to decide—the princess comforted herself in this way.

The Ninth Prince was terrified when he saw Tuvoluqian's half-dead appearance, and completely collapsed on the ground, trembling all over, saying incoherently: "It's not me, it's not me...it's him, it's him who promised me prosperity... Forced me to do this..."

The princess was furious, and slapped him on the face: "Shut up!"

Some people don't call themselves, this is good, and the hall is even more chaotic.

When Ji Shuxian took the handkerchief from the palace man and took care of the raccoon slaves, a military general took the opportunity to shout loudly: "Your Highness, this Xidi mission is called Tanhe, but it actually hides murderous intentions, not only ordering people to pretend to be the prince , and intends to assassinate His Highness! This kind of behavior really does not put me in the eyes of Dayu!"

"Yes," this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, someone responded immediately, "If you don't give them some color, they will still think that there is no one in our Great Yu Dynasty!"

"Tie them up and let Sidi Royal Court give us an explanation!"

"Yes... bound!"

The princess hurriedly said: "This, this must be a traitor who framed our country and tried to drive a wedge between us and Dayu... The identity of this person has yet to be verified. Your Highness, you must not fall into the evil scheme of the traitor! Your Highness, we really I'm here to negotiate a peace..."

Without Tuvoluyi's mission, it would be a mess, and the princess' rebuttal was quickly buried in the excitement of the officials.

The regent propped his head on one hand, closed his eyes slightly, his brows were furrowed tightly, as if he was having a headache, and after a quarter of an hour of arguing, he suddenly picked up the wine cup on the table and dropped it: "All Shut up for Gu! Say one more word, and Gu will pull you all out and chop you up!"

A needle can be heard in the hall instantly.

Although everyone's mouths were closed, their eyes were still piercing.

The princess was furious, the regent pulled out the guard's knife, got up and walked down, ordered someone to lift the limp Ninth Prince to look at his face, and then walked up to Tuvoluqian to look at it The scar on his waist, gloomy face.

All the ministers were embarrassed and dared not speak. Looking at the Prince Regent's expression, they were afraid that the hall would be splashed with blood tonight!

The princess was in a state of desperation, and in a panic, she caught a glimpse of a table on the opposite side, and a person was sipping wine calmly, as if the commotion had nothing to do with him.Until she caught a glimpse of the man sneaking a few iced grapes on the table to the lizard slave kneeling nearby while no one was looking.

Li Nu quickly took the grapes and stuffed them into his mouth, and smiled at him. The domineering commander still half blocked in front of the two of them, covering them!

Others are paying attention to this shocking scandal, only they are as if they are here for fun, relaxed and at ease.

Xie Yan raised his eyes and glanced at Princess Sidi. Through the shining lights, his expression was neither happy nor sad, just indifferent.

The princess suddenly came to her senses—it was him, it must be him, and all of this had something to do with him!

But it was useless for her to guess, the scene was already chaotic, she had neither the ability to turn the situation around, nor the strength to lead everyone out of the encirclement, after all, she was just a woman who was exchanged for peace by the Sidi Imperial Court !

Moreover, they were detained by Dayu for more than two months, and Xidi didn't move at all. Could it be that the father is also afraid of Dayu and doesn't want her as a daughter?

The princess felt very desolate, her life's glory was ruined by Dayu and this Ninth Prince!

She gritted her teeth with hatred, but there was nothing she could do, her eyes turned red when she thought of Sidi's royal court's indifference.But she still doesn't want to die. To this day, she still wants to seduce the regent first, even if she wants to be a concubine by his side, so that the green hills will stay, and she won't be afraid of running out of firewood...

The princess was thinking about the way to save herself, when suddenly there was a thunder outside the window!

Suddenly, a white electric fire dragon pierced the night sky.

Ji Shuxian shouted: "—His Royal Highness, be careful!"

At the moment when the lightning flashed out, the lunatic Tuvolu suddenly knocked away the two elite soldiers beside him, and at the moment when everyone was dazzled by the lightning, he grabbed the regent's knife with both hands, laughed wildly, and turned to him stab!

"Boom--!"

The white light flashed on again, reflecting the faces of all the people in the hall as gray. Seeing the change in front of her, the princess immediately covered her mouth with her hands.

"Hahahahaha, kill! Kill! Kill them all, I will kill them all!" The murderer laughed wildly, "You all go to die, hahaha..."

Torrential rain poured down.

The regent stepped back slowly, his large sleeves fluttered slightly with his steps, he covered his shoulders, and looked in disbelief at the blade that had penetrated deeply into his flesh and blood.

But in a moment, he gritted his teeth, grasped the handle of the knife, and pulled it out suddenly-the blood splashed all over the place.

He staggered, but was caught by Ji Shuxian who stepped forward.

Xie Yan was still sitting until Ji Shuxian didn't know what happened, but instead of catching the regent, he was brought down to the ground by the regent.The hair crown fell to his feet, the blue hair scattered, and blood flowed from his fingertips.

"Wulang!" Xie Yan's expression changed, he suddenly pushed away the table in front of him, rushed up, and hugged Pei Jun.

A large number of soldiers poured into the hall, some calmed the situation and controlled the noise, and some escorted the little emperor away.Ning Xi and the others finally noticed the situation here, someone ran over and said something to Xie Yan, but Xie Yan didn't listen.

At this moment, there is only one thing on his mind——

Pei Jun was bleeding.

The blood was warm and hot, and it was extremely bright on Xie Yan's hands and face.

Why is he bleeding?

It shouldn't be like this.

This is different from what you said...

Ning Xi panicked and called for someone: "Tell the imperial physician, hurry up!"

"Take..."

Xie Yan murmured, his eyes were bloodshot, and a sense of viciousness welled up in his heart. His eyes suddenly became sharp, and he said coldly: "Take down all the Sidi missions! Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy!"

He originally wanted to exchange the mission and the princess with Sidi, but now, he doesn't want anything.

He just wants them dead.

At this time, I don’t know whether no one cares about it, or the imperial army was also frightened and stupid. When they heard that it was the Marquis of Ping’an who gave the order, no one disobeyed for a while. arrest.

Those who dared to resist and escape shot straight through the heart.

Pei Jun wanted to stabilize his body, but when he moved a little, the wound on his shoulder would ooze blood, but he stubbornly wanted to hold Xie Yan's hand as if ignoring the pain.

"Don't move, don't move Goro." No matter how chaotic the hall was, Xie Yan didn't go to see the carpet was stained red by the mission's blood, and his hands were trembling when he tore off a large piece of his underwear , firmly pressed the ball of cloth on Pei Jun's wound.

The blood soon stained the cloth ball red, Xie Yan had to press another hand on it, but in this way, he couldn't free his hand for Pei Jun to hold, so he could only lower his head and put his face on it: "Don't be afraid , the imperial doctor is coming soon. You will be fine."

But after all, he didn't touch Xie Yan's cheek, but in an instant, he let go of his hands and passed out.
