Chapter 457 Who Wants to Kill the Emperor?
Chapter 457 Who is going to kill the emperor
Soon, most of the assassins were controlled by the Imperial Guards.
An assassin actually walked around behind and threw out the darts at Chu Zai.
"Father, be careful!"
Seeing this, Chu Yuemu thought it was a great opportunity to show his performance, so he rushed over.
He was sure that there were so many masters in the Imperial Guard that darts would not harm his father and him.
He did this just to let his father see his "filial piety".
Sure enough, as he expected.
Halfway through the dart, it was intercepted by the Imperial Guard.
And the assassin was also chopped off his head on the spot.
Blood splattered, and the head rolled on the ground, and many female members screamed in panic.
But at this time, Chu Yuemu found that his body was not under control.
He wanted to stop, but the stones from somewhere hit his knee bend.
He suffered pain and his body fell forward.
The sword in his hand also stabbed forward.
And the direction of the prick is Chu Zai.
"Protect the Lord, protect the Lord, the Seventh Prince is going to assassinate the Emperor!"
I don’t know who shouted anxiously, and the atmosphere at the scene became solemn again.
With a "stingy" sound, Concubine Mu actually tore her handkerchief into the future.
She was so panicked that she was in a state of silence.
"No, how could Mu'er assassinate the emperor?"
Over there, Chu Yuemu's sword did not hurt Chu Zai.
Because he was already kicked to the ground by a man.
Chu Rui looked at him coldly.
"Are the prince of the Chu family so eager to seek power and usurp the throne? I and your father are still alive!"
He scolded angrily.
Only then did everyone realize that when the emperor was protected, the Supreme Emperor had already picked up his weapons and killed the assassin with the Imperial Guard.
Blood stained his robe red.
Although his hair was white, his sharp aura should not be underestimated.
Everyone suddenly remembered that the Supreme Emperor was the emperor who had been in charge of the Western Chu Kingdom for many years. In the years when he was in charge of the Western Chu Kingdom, no foreign enemy dared to invade.
But since the emperor ascended the throne, there has never been an imperial commander in person.
And, the same emperor...
Why is the Supreme Emperor still able to fight with the assassin at such age, but the Emperor is protected by so many imperial guards?
For a moment, everyone's expressions... were very subtle.
Chu Zai was so angry that his heart hurt.
Since his ascension to the throne, those ministers and the people have been comparing him with their father behind their backs.
And every time, they think he is inferior to his father.
I’m afraid they think that he, the emperor, is useless.
Moreover, he also raised a rebellious son who wanted to murder him.
He was angry and murderous in his eyes. Chu Zai stared at Chu Yuemu with a very cunning look.
He pushed away the imperial guards in front of him, then pulled out a sword and strode over: "I have killed you, the evil one."
"Your Majesty, you can't. There must be a misunderstanding. Mu'er is here to protect you, so how could he assassinate you?"
Concubine Mu was completely panicked at this time.
She rushed over there regardless of everything, then blocked Chu Yuemu's face, and pleaded with Chu Zai in grief.
At this time, the only few remaining assassins became even more fierce.
They shouted: "Seventh Prince, don't be afraid. Even if the subordinates die, you will kill the dog emperor for you."
Dog Emperor?
Chu Zai smiled gloomyly.
"It's really your man, Lao Qi. You want to take my life. OK, very good."
"No, Father, my son-in-law doesn't know these assassins at all. My son-in-law is wronged."
Chu Yuemu's legs were so scared that he explained in panic.
"Catch them and leave them to interrogate."
Chu Rui ordered the Imperial Guard.
"Yes, the Supreme Emperor."
But when they caught the remaining few living mouths, the other party actually vomited black blood.
"No, the Supreme Emperor, they committed suicide by taking poison."
The entire hall was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the ground was filled with corpses.
Not to mention that many female relatives were so scared that they fainted, even many ministers had their faces pale.
But than being afraid of the bloody scene in front of them, what they fear is...
The truth of this assassination.
"Come here, take Princess Changlin, the Seventh Prince, and Concubine Mu to me."
Chu Zai threw down the sword in his hand and then ordered it gloomyly.
"No, brother, I really don't know about this."
"Father, those assassins are really not the ones who are the ones who are the ones who are deliberately framed."
"Emperor, why do I and Mu'er want to take your life? Don't be deceived by the thief."
Chu Changlin, Chu Yuemu and Concubine Mu knelt down one after another, and they pleaded in panic.
Chu Zhihe also realized that the situation was serious, so she hurried over and kneeled down.
"Father, Mother and Seventh Emperor care about you so much, why would you kill you? Please ask your father to observe it." She said nervously.
"What do you mean is that I am a fool, have you misunderstood?" Chu Zai's face looked extremely ugly.
"No, Father, I don't mean that." Chu Zhihe's face turned pale, and she shook her head vigorously.
"You have reminded me that if your emperor and mother want to murder me, you will not be able to escape."
"Come here, take the Sixth Princess to me."
Chu Zai ordered angrily.
When the Empress Dowager saw this scene, especially when she saw Chu Changlin being escorted to kneel down, she was always her own daughter, and she wanted to help plead for mercy.
But when she opened her mouth, she met Chu Zai's gloomy eyes, and she didn't dare to speak anymore.
The emperor was the most unwilling tolerate others seeking power and usurping the throne.
Lin'er and the others... are confused.
"Queen Prince, you are responsible for this palace banquet. Why can the assassin get in with weapons?"
Chu Zai's gloomy eyes began to fall on the Queen and Chu Yuefu.
Concubine Mu seemed to have a sudden idea.
She quickly kowtowed and said, "Master, this matter must be done by the queen and the prince. They want to frame Mu'er."
Queen Qin's face also became cold.
She strode over and slapped Concubine Mu in the face.
"Do you think you have long life when framed by the mother country? The seventh prince has ambitions and wants to murder the emperor. It would be fine if you don't plead guilty, but you even want to pour dirty water on me and the prince."
After scolding Concubine Mu, Empress Qin knelt down in front of Chu Zai.
"Emperor, I am responsible for the palace banquet, but I let the assassin in. It was because I was not supervising it properly. But I am sincere to the emperor and had no intention of murdering the emperor. I am willing to stay in jail for a year and hand over the phoenix seal to the Empress Dowager to make up for my mistakes."
Compared with Concubine Mu, Queen Qin's reaction was much more powerful.
She took retreat as an advance, and although she temporarily lost the power of the seal, as long as the queen's position was always there, she would have the confidence to take back the power.
Chu Zai squinted his eyes and stared at her for a long time, but no one could guess what he was thinking.
Concubine Mu became even more panicked.
No, you must remove her and Mu'er, otherwise it will be a dead end.
By the way, there is another person!
"Your Majesty, King Yushan did not appear today. This matter must have been done by him, and then he framed us." She said in a sharp voice.
