Chapter 245: You are the one who needs to wake up 1
If I leave so early, I'm afraid it will arouse Murong Xiao's suspicion."
"Yes, I will make arrangements right away." Qian Xia felt blessed and resigned.
However, the banquet at Taiqian Hall was already tense. Xu Mushan and Murong You were sitting confidently in the banquet, enjoying the wonderful palace dance. Little did they know that the army arranged by Murong Xiao at this moment had already surrounded the place to capture the thief and the king. Insights Knowing the other party’s intentions will naturally make it easier to counterattack
"Wan'er, come, I'll give you this glass of wine." Murong Xiao poured a full glass of wine, smiled and hugged Qin Wan'er, who was sitting next to the throne, in his arms, "I have waited for so long, and you finally became my queen."
Qin Wan'er just smiled politely, but her thoughts turned to the fact that Murong Shun, who was waiting for her at Xihua Gate, actually poured a lot of wine out of the cup he was holding in a highly nervous mood, and her face suddenly showed embarrassment.
"What's wrong? Why are your hands so cold?" Murong Xiao realized something was wrong and held Qin Wan'er's hand tightly.
Qin Wan'er didn't know how to explain it for a moment, but Xu Mushan slammed the cup in his hand to the ground, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the hall.
Murong Xiao's attention was diverted from Qin Wan'er, and she looked at the people in the hall with sharp eyes, and said coldly: "My Sima has lost his etiquette. Today is the palace banquet for the canonization of the queen, how can he be so rude?"
Xu Mushan laughed loudly, wild and uninhibited, "Oh? Haha, this is the best joke I have ever heard. You usurped power. If I hadn't helped you for the sake of my daughter, Do you have today?"
These words immediately aroused discussion among the ministers, and Murong Xiao's face became even more ugly. The murderous intention in his heart had already appeared. "Escort the queen back to the palace first." Murong Xiao turned around and ordered the trusted guards around him.
"What I have to do today is to uphold justice for heaven. Apart from you, the rebellious minister and traitor, I support King Hui to ascend the throne as emperor." Xu Mushan's provocative words revealed his purpose. He waved his hand, and some guards holding weapons came from outside the palace. He rushed in and immediately took control of everyone in the hall.
Murong You also had a proud look on his face. He stood up lightly and glanced at Murong Xiao, "Seventh brother, let's capture him without any help. Taiqian Hall is surrounded by our people. If you surrender, I can spare your life."
"Yeah?"
A trace of evil flashed across Murong Xiao's face, and she played with the wine glass in her hand with great interest, "It seems that you are the one who needs to be sober. Look at these people, are they all yours?"
Murong You looked around, and couldn't help being shocked. The people he originally arranged here turned out to be the imperial guards led by Zhao Chen. It goes without saying that Murong You's plan had been seen through by Murong Xiao, but his face was still pretending to be calm.
"Even so, the troops under me and General Xu have surrounded the palace. If Brother Seven dares to act rashly, you might as well consider the consequences."
"I really want to taste the consequences of this." Murong Xiao waved his hand decisively, without showing any mercy, "Take it."
The guards in the main hall moved upon hearing the sound and started fighting with Murong You and Xu Mushan's cronies. With their numbers and strength, Murong Xiao naturally had the absolute advantage.
However, Qin Wan'er said that after she came out of Taiqian Hall, she had been feeling faintly uneasy in her heart. Less than a hundred steps away from Taiqian Hall, she heard the sound of fighting inside.
