Zhenbei Hou smiled and said nothing, clenched his hands into fists, and his veins were bulging. He didn't know whether he was holding back his anger or pain. After drawing his sword and bandaging it, Xie Zhang, Xie Jue and Xie Xun came in one after another. Zhang Yuan sentenced
When he left, there were Zhenbei Hou's confidants guarding him outside the tent, so no one else could get close.
"Father, how are your injuries?" Xie Zhang sat by the bed, worried about the Hou Ye's injuries. Although his father was famous, he was no longer in his prime, and injuries to his muscles and bones were always disturbing.
"Ask your good brothers!" Zhenbei Hou's face was dark. If it weren't for the fear that the wall had ears, he would almost roar, "You are so filial. One orders people to shoot cold arrows, and the other wants to kill his father. How brave!"
Xie Xun knew that he was wrong, so he lowered his head and looked introspective, and glanced at his second brother from the corner of his eye. Xie Jue looked at the furious Zhenbei Hou expressionlessly, and Xie Xun almost applauded him.
The second brother could do such a treasonous thing and still remain calm. Alas, his face is still a bit tender and not as good as the second brother.
The two cold arrows were marked. When Xie Xun cut off the first cold arrow, he knew that Xie Jue had ordered someone to release them.
"I just want to force the emperor to return to camp." Xie Jue said, "Every wrong has its own owner, and every debt has its own owner. You can settle the score with Zhixu."
"Second brother, you are not kind!" Xie Xun defended in shock, "What else can I do besides shooting my father? Moreover, my father caught the arrow himself."
It was just a cold arrow. How could the dignified Marquis of Zhenbei be hit by a cold arrow? He clearly used his body to catch it. His acting skills were at their peak, and even Xie Xun felt inferior to him.
"You blame me, you did something bad, I have to give birth to you two!" Zhenbei Hou was so angry that he attacked indiscriminately, "If you don't explain clearly, get out of here!"
After Xie Jue waited for Zhenbei Hou to vent his anger, he said calmly, "Miss Fengyu told me after she woke up that she and Fang Lingjun saw Chen Mo setting up a poison arrow trap in the forest. I sent shadow guards into the mountain to dismantle it.
When the shadow guards went to the agency, you were already beside the agency. They had no choice but to shoot cold arrows as a warning. Fortunately, my father and Zhixu cooperated well and escaped."
The Marquis of Zhenbei could more or less guess the danger. He asked in a deep voice, "Chen Mo was ordered to lay out the plan to take my life?"
"Father, the poisonous arrow mechanism was left to me by the emperor." Xie Jue's words were shocking. There was a strange silence in the tent, and no one said another word.
Xie Xun suppressed the anger in his heart, "The eldest brother personally led the cavalry to set up defenses in the forest. If the emperor was injured by a poisonous arrow while hunting, the eldest brother would definitely be held accountable. My father took the initiative to ask the cavalry to be stationed, and all safety matters were left to the eldest brother.
If there is something wrong with the emperor, everyone will think that it was us who set it up. It will be difficult for the eldest brother to prove his innocence and he will be held accountable."
Xie Jue said, "When my eldest brother sent people to inspect the southern hunting ground, no traps were found, but those poisonous arrows were arranged a month ago. They should have been placed on the trees early, and the triggers would wait until the day before the hunt to set them up. As long as someone died,
Even in the hunting grounds, my eldest brother will be held accountable."
Xie Xun poured a cup of hot water for the shocked Zhenbeihou and handed it to him obediently. Zhenbeihou frowned and looked at the lawless rebellious son, "It's too hot."
"Dad, don't be pretentious." Xie Xun fanned the flames, "I'll bring you tea and water. How filial."
"What a stupid move!" Zhenbei Hou drank the tea with a gloomy face, "They set up a trap in the hunting ground, killed innocent people indiscriminately, and caused chaos during the peace talks. What are they trying to do?"
Xie Xun took the cup and placed it on the side, "If Lin Xiao, Zhang Boxing and others hadn't brought Feng Yu and Fang Lingjun into the mountains to cause trouble and exposed the plan, the hunting ground would have been filled with blood today. The Hou Mansion would also have faced disaster. If the Emperor had
There are three long and two shortcomings. The aristocratic family will never let us go. They can't wait for the royal family and us to fight to a bloody head. After the peace talks, the border is peaceful, and the aristocratic family wants to gather military power."
Xie Zhang sighed, "Before the hunt, our focus was on Dugu Jing and Tingfeng to prevent him from harming Tingfeng. We never expected... There was a fire in the backyard, and the emperor and the prince actually wanted my life. It was unbelievable. How could I
How can you be so virtuous? It’s worth all their efforts. Although the mechanism has been dismantled, the royal family has revealed its murderous intentions. Father, what should we do?"
The Marquis of Zhenbei groaned, the wound on his arm was aching, the battle between Dugu Jing and Xie Zhang, Dugu Jing's arrogance during the peace talks, and the dangers lurking during the hunt. All signs indicate that the Hou Mansion is in dire straits.
The prince was one step ahead of Xie Xun and Fang Chuning, and dismantled the traps in the southern hunting ground. He did so silently and no evidence of crime could be found. The poisonous arrows arranged by Chen Mo were also dismantled by Xie Jue's shadow guards. The Marquis of Zhenbei could not hold the poisonous arrows.
Jian went to confront the emperor. If he wanted to prove that it was Chen Mo, he needed Fang Lingjun and Feng Yu to testify.
Fang Lingjun was of such high status that Emperor Jianming did not dare to touch her at will.
What should I do with Feng Yu? What should I do with the entire Feng family?
Xie Zhang and Feng Shu's wedding was only a month away, and the complications would only harm the Feng family. They had no real evidence. With so many people in the hunting ground, anyone could have laid a trap. Emperor Jianming could even blame the Northern Barbarians.
"How dare he!" Zhenbei Hou was extremely disappointed and angry. He killed the donkey. And during the peace talks, how dare he! He had already negotiated with Emperor Jianming, and after the implementation of the New Deal, he would return the military power. In the future,
Xie Zhang will guard the border and he will disarm and return to his fields. In addition, Ningzhou will also reduce its troops.
Why do we still need to set up an ambush and frame up someone?
Marquis Zhenbei wanted to question Emperor Jianming, what exactly did he want to do?
While the Marquis of Zhenbei was still furious, his own soldiers came to report, "Master Marquis, the Emperor is here."
Emperor Jianming was worried. After entering the tent, Xie Zhang, Xie Jue and Xie Xun saluted and then left the tent. Chen Mo stayed outside the tent and greeted Xie Zhang and Xie Jue.
Xie Zhang calmly took his brothers back to his tent.
Emperor Jianming and the Marquis talked heartily about the Poison Arrow setup. The Marquis of Zhenbei was caught off guard and blurted out, "Why did the Emperor do this?"
"Xie Jue implemented the New Deal in the cabinet with a tough attitude. Several major families knew that the implementation of the New Deal would weaken their authority and force me to make a decision." Emperor Jianming burst into tears. "A few days ago, Taifu Zhang, Cai Gelao and Fang Ge
The old man came to me, forcing me to abolish the New Deal, and mentioned the late emperor. I had nightmares every night, seeing the late emperor being burned to death in the palace. They wanted me to set up a trap to kill you. I didn’t want to be a faint king who killed heroes, so I just
I can use my body as bait to make them believe that the relationship between the royal family and the Marquis Mansion is on thin ice. Only in this way will I not be burned to death by them like the late emperor."
The Marquis of Zhenbei watched the Ninth Five Emperor cry bitterly in front of him, and could feel his fear and pressure. The Marquis of Zhenbei stood up and knelt down, "It was my eagerness to implement the new policy and lack of consideration that frightened the Emperor."
The minister actually asked the emperor to use his body as a bait to seek peace, and he didn't know whose sorrow it was. The Marquis of Zhenbei was furious, and the family became more and more excessive, forcing the emperor to destroy his own dragon body.
