Absolute Protagonist [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 56 The world is a game of chess 7
Bang——The door of the dormitory was slammed shut, and a group of guards surrounded the entire hall.
The fourth prince leisurely clasped the emperor's plan like a storyteller.
Knowing the truth suddenly, the prince stood in the hall in a daze, with a complicated expression on his face, full of remorse.If he knew this earlier, how could he have attacked the emperor, and now let the fourth prince take advantage of the loophole?
Thinking of this, he subconsciously began to blame Chu Si who provided him with poison, complained about those staff who did not dissuade him, and even secretly complained that he never told him the truth, but sat behind the scenes and let him be like a clown. The emperor where princes fight.
The prince, who cast all the responsibilities on other people, completely forgot that the idea of killing his father came from his own heart, and the others just followed suit.
The emperor's face was even more ugly.After all, he had a good reputation all his life, otherwise he wouldn't have worked so hard to pretend, but now his true colors are mercilessly exposed.Maybe it has been recorded in the notes of the emperor's daily life by the official historian, leaving an absurd mark in the history.But now he couldn't even open his mouth to argue. He noticed the weird eyes of the officials in the palace on him, and his hatred eyes were fixed on the fourth prince.
Facing the cold eyes of the emperor, the fourth prince raised his eyebrows and smiled heartily.
He drawled his tone slowly: "Father, you don't have to be too grateful. If you hadn't exposed the truth, I'm afraid you passed the throne to the crown prince in a muddle-headed way. You won't know who killed you until you die."
"Ho ho—" This reminder once again detonated the anger in the emperor's heart. The unspeakable sense of aggrieved made his chest tight, and he felt a smoldering fire in his chest that was burning more and more.
He wanted to struggle, but his body wouldn't listen.His chest continued to rise and fall, and finally a mouthful of blood spewed out, his eyes widened, and he lay upright on the couch.
"His Majesty!"
"Father!"
The officials exclaimed a few times, and the prince was even more guilty.But they didn't bother to check the emperor's situation, because they themselves were imprisoned and could not make decisions.
"In order not to be alone under the imperial father, the third brother of the crown prince, you should go down and accompany him."
A fluttering sentence blurted out, and the guard who was guarding the prince swung his butcher knife mercilessly.
The prince's body fell limply to the ground, and the blood spattered redly stained the beams and pillars carved from white jade.
Witnessing this bloody scene, the Sangong and Jiuqing in the palace looked at the fourth prince with even more frightened eyes.
The fourth prince was indifferent, and his eyes were full of appreciation. He moved his interested eyes to the officials, and his face was full of smiles looking forward to the opening of the good show.
"Well, the current court hall is still too crowded. I thought that only half of the people left here would be enough."
As he spoke, he casually threw the dagger in his hand, and it landed on the ground with a bang. The undried blood on the dagger was ferocious and cold.
The officials in the hall looked at each other, their bodies trembling slightly.What absurd request is this?
However, looking at the palace full of guards carrying knives and swords, and the fourth prince surrounded by many guards, they didn't dare to utter a word of no.
There is great terror between life and death.Life is in front, gentleness is in the air, and all friendship and interests are empty talk.
On this day, rivers of blood flowed in the palace, and many ministers who had escaped from death thought of everything that happened on this day for many years, and they still had the feeling of being immersed in a nightmare and not waking up.
If it is said that they framed political enemies and stabbed them in the back before, it was just a light touch of the upper and lower lips, and naturally other people would carry it out, then this time they really fought hand-to-hand, facing the bloody and horror of death.
From then on, this group of people trembled under the pressure of the tyrant, walking on thin ice, no matter what unreasonable demands the other party made, they did not dare to disobey a single word.The impression of fear remaining in my heart is really too deep.
· Outside Yongjing city, on the shore of Lushui.
Princess Xinhua woke up leisurely, and all she could see was the slightly pale sky.
"……What's wrong with me?"
She vaguely remembered that she seemed to be knocked unconscious in the palace.Looking around in a daze, he found himself lying on a piece of wild grass, and a familiar figure was standing not far away.
The azure robe was like an empty mountain dyed black, and the ebony-like hair was loosely scattered behind him. The young man's clear side face could not be seen clearly in the hazy morning mist, only a graceful and moving outline was vaguely revealed.Like the bright moon hidden in the fog.
Princess Xinhua looked infatuated, as if falling into a dream.Completely ignoring his bound hands and feet.
Until the young Qingyue's voice woke her up: "Please explain clearly, your origin."
Princess Xinhua was stunned: "Wh, what is the origin?"
"You are not from this world."
Princess Xinhua keenly noticed that the other party's tone was not a question, but an affirmation.
She froze completely, and the previous infatuation and admiration was swept away, replaced by vigilance in her eyes.After waking up, Princess Xinhua noticed her bound hands and feet.She looked even more frightened.
"I, I don't know what you're talking about..."
Seeing that the other party was still trying to perfunctory, Chu Si smiled lightly and shook his head.In the memory of the original body, Chu Si had already discovered many flaws in this person.
For example, at the beginning, Princess Xinhua was a talented woman well-known all over Yongjing, and the few poems she wrote made the original body Chu Yuzhi admire. feel.So he did not resist the approach of this Princess Xinhua.
However, after a period of contact, Chu Yuzhi was disappointed to find that this princess didn't even understand the most basic rhythm of poetry, so how could she write such a masterpiece?
He suspected that the real author of these poems was someone else, but after a few euphemisms, Princess Xinhua did not confess the truth.This made Chu Yuzhi extremely disappointed with Princess Xinhua's character, and his original enthusiasm faded.
The following incidents completely broke Chu Yuzhi's impression of Princess Xinhua.The cousin's family went to Beijing and temporarily lived in the prime minister's mansion.Chu Yuzhi accidentally discovered that Princess Xinhua had a deep dislike for her cousin Lu Yingying, and she repeatedly warned Lu Yingying not to get entangled with him behind her back—this was completely slandering his character and her cousin's reputation.After Lu Yingying's accidental death, Chu Yuzhi even discovered that it was written by Princess Xinhua. From then on, he developed a deep hatred for this princess.
However, the Chu family had hairpin tassels for generations, and the prime minister had high authority, and Chu Yuzhi's dislike for Princess Xinhua was clear, and the emperor who seemed to want to shape the image of a wise monarch would naturally not forcefully grant a marriage.
However, Chu Yuzhi, who was a pure native, didn't notice what was wrong with Princess Xinhua, but Chu Si, who had obtained the memory of the other party, noticed it immediately.
...After all, these routines are too familiar.
He leaned slightly, and met Princess Xinhua's evasive gaze: "Stop pretending, if you really like Chu Yuzhi, don't you notice the difference between me and him?"
Perhaps other people would only think that the current him has been changed by the deep hatred and hatred, but how could the people who really love Chu Yuzhi not discover the truth?
The corners of the young man's lips curled up slightly, and his clear and deep eyes were icy cold, as if he could cut the person on the ground apart inside and out in an instant.
This feeling as if she was lying on the operating table in the laboratory and let others slaughter her made Princess Xinhua tremble uncontrollably.
At the juncture of life and death, her IQ was on the line, and her heart was like a mirror—this mysterious man was clever enough to bring him out of the heavily guarded palace without a trace, and he must be able to find out that she was dealing with the Chu family behind her back.Even if he confesses to be lenient, I am afraid it will be a dead end.If you don't say it, you might still have a chance to survive.
Therefore, she said nothing.
On the distant river, a small boat sailed in the misty clouds, and the boatman punted the boat to the shore.
"My lord, let me come!" Qin Yi volunteered to jump ashore, his tattooed face was cold and grim, "This kind of person doesn't deserve your dirty hands."
He skillfully stretched out his hand to grab Princess Xinhua's feet, and dragged her along the shore until she came to the Lushui River.
Princess Xinhua rubbed her face all the way on the barren grass, bloodstains were drawn by the stones, and she kept screaming.After finally stopping, a pair of big palm-like hands suddenly grabbed her head and pushed it down hard into the river.A cold suffocation surged.
After ten breaths, Qin Yi let go.Wait for the other party to breathe for a moment, then press down again.
After doing this several times, Princess Xinhua couldn't bear it anymore, she burst into tears, screamed and shouted: "I said, I will recruit everything! I will tell you everything!"
……
"It turned out to be a time traveler who crossed the timeline..."
I learned all the truth from Princess Xinhua, and by the way, I also seized a strange jade pendant——According to Princess Xinhua, she has such a jade pendant on her body no matter a thousand years ago or a thousand years later—Chu Si’s curiosity My heart was greatly satisfied.
He conveniently threw the jade pendant into the system space, and told Qin Yi, who was not far away, to avoid suspicion: "Give her a good time."
At any rate, he took over the body of the original body. Although it is impossible for Chu Si to empathize with the other party or even feel the hatred for the original body, why not take revenge for the original body?
Qin Yi, who had stayed in the Chu family for ten years, had a hundred times more hatred in his heart than Chu Si.Hearing the order, he kicked the woman lying on the bank into the icy river.
After doing this, he couldn't let go of his hatred, and looked in the direction of Yongjing City unwillingly: "My lord, those people... shall we just leave it alone?"
The morning light shines leisurely in the sky, and the water mist on the riverside is misty.The young man who seemed to be melting into the clouds smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, in my script, they have their own way back."
The water was rippling, and the boat was slowly going down the river, and the figures of the two disappeared in the early morning twilight.
· Palace.
One night passed, and the smell of blood permeated the sleeping hall.In the cold and calm atmosphere, the fourth prince lazily stretched his waist. His face was full of satisfaction, as if he had enjoyed a big show or tasted a delicious meal, his face was radiant.
But in the eyes of other people present, this horrible smile is more terrifying than the monsters in myths and ghosts.
"How is it? Has anyone caught it?" The fourth prince asked with a good mood.
He is still very interested in Chu Si who came to the door and expressed that he would use each other with him.
The hidden guard who appeared suddenly replied respectfully: "This subordinate is incompetent, let that person get away."
"Oh?" The fourth prince was not angry either.In his opinion, that kind of smart person would not take risks easily.
His eyes turned to look around the hall, and his expression suddenly changed.
Not long ago, that young man who took the initiative to come to him to make a deal with him, his cold and determined voice resounded in the fourth prince's mind once again.
"He who is ruthless and unrighteous will betray his relatives, die and fall ill."
——On the messy bed, the emperor's cold corpse showed convulsive and twisted features.
"Those who kill brothers and seek power will die because of power, and they will never succeed."
——Not far from the bed, the prince's body, which had been pierced by a sword, fell to the ground, and not far from the hand was the scroll of bright yellow imperial decree.
"Those who are greedy for profit and forget righteousness, fight against each other for profit, and eat each other to survive."
——The white marble floor was smeared with blood, and corpses were strewn all over the place.Those who barely survived were trembling and shivering among the corpses in the hall.
"Hehehe..."
The fourth prince suddenly lowered his head, and let out a series of low laughs like maniacs, that handsome almost monster face became more and more eye-catching in the brightly illuminated palace lantern.
His laughter stopped abruptly, replaced by a sudden look of interest on his face.
"Is this the script you wove for them? You have predicted my plan..."
The fourth prince's eyes passed through the gate of the dormitory and looked out of the palace city, as if he saw the figure leisurely going away on the Lushui.
"...I really don't know what kind of script you have written for me?"
The fourth prince leisurely clasped the emperor's plan like a storyteller.
