Hu Xiaotian accompanied Jian Rongxin here, partly out of sympathy and partly out of curiosity. It was really hard for him to imagine why Jian Rongxin had fallen into this state. In his impression, Li Chenzhou had always been a gentle and gentle gentleman.
I remember that the couple had always been extremely affectionate in front of others. Why did this scene happen tonight? Even a fool can see that there must have been conflicts between the couple. Jian Rongxin must have run away in anger.
But even if he ran away in anger, Li Chenzhou should have sent someone to escort him. On such a snowy night, even if the two families were not far apart, how could he feel at ease letting his wife leave alone in thin clothes?
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but think of Xue Lingjun's conditions. She asked herself to kill Jian Rongxin. It was an excellent opportunity. However, Xue Lingjun's purpose of killing Jian Rongxin to attack Li Chenzhou seemed impossible to achieve. If Jian Rong
Heart is really important in Li Chenzhou's mind, and the scene in front of him would not have happened.
Jian Rongxin wanted to walk into the house, but a strong hand grabbed her arm. Hu Xiaotian reminded her in a low voice: "Don't go in."
Jian Rongxin shook off Hu Xiaotian's hand and ran inside desperately. Just after running a few steps, she stumbled and fell to the ground. She tripped over a corpse. In fact, the corpse had been lying there for a long time.
There, it was just covered by the flying snow, so it was not obvious. When Jian Rongxin saw the corpse, her beautiful eyes widened in shock.
Hu Xiaotian strode to Jian Rongxin and whispered: "Quickly, there is a trap here!"
Jian Rongxin shook her head, her heart filled with fear to the extreme. Thinking of her father who had just left the Duke of Jingguo's Mansion, she became confused and murmured: "Dad...Dad..." She got up from the snow and overcame it.
The fear in her heart brushed away the snow on the corpse's face, and through the light of the snow she could tell that the deceased was not her father, but the housekeeper Jian An.
Hu Xiaotian secretly screamed that something was wrong. Judging from the scene in front of him, the Jian family was probably wiped out. Who would do such a thing? Jian Xihe was not only a bachelor of Dayong University, but also the father-in-law of Li Chenzhou. Who dared to touch him?
?
Seeing Jian Rong looking around blankly in the snow, Hu Xiaotian immediately understood something. If this was a trap, the trap was definitely not aimed at him. He just happened to see a passerby who broke in by accident. The Jian family was
The target, Jian Rongxin, the young mistress of Duke Jingguo's mansion, is just one of the victims.
The snow is still falling, covering up the corpses one after another, covering up the blood, but it cannot cover up the dangers lurking around, and the calm in front of us is only temporary.
Jian Rongxin came to her father's study.
The candlelight in the study room was not extinguished. Bachelor Jian Xihe was sitting quietly at the desk. There was a blood hole in his chest. The front was full of blood. The blood had solidified. Jian Xihe had also been dead for a long time. Jian Rongxin saw the scene in front of her.
Suddenly, he felt like the world was spinning. He called out to daddy, fell on him, and fainted.
Hu Xiaotian came to Jian Xihe and stretched out his hand to touch the blood vessels in his neck. He was sure that Jian Xihe was dead. Because of the cold weather and freezing ground, Jian Xihe's body had already become cold. There was a small sound from outside.
Hu Xiaotian's ears twitched slightly with the sound of footsteps, and his handsome face was as calm as before. He first carried Jian Rongxin on his back, used her skirt straps to tie her carefully to his back, then blew out the candle, and from there
Po Feng was slowly withdrawn from his waist.
It was quiet again outside, except for the sound of falling snow, but Hu Xiaotian felt that an unprecedented danger was approaching him. Behind him, Jian Rongxin fell into a brief coma, which at least allowed her to Stay away from sadness.
Hu Xiaotian suddenly raised his hand to break the wind, raised the knife and slashed it in the darkness of the night. Suddenly! Sparks shot out, and a feather arrow that broke through the window was chopped down by Hu Xiaotian with one knife. After one knife blow, dozens of arrows were shot down. Arrows were shot into the room from all directions, and the sharp arrowheads penetrated the wall panes. Hu Xiaotian's body rose up in a spiral, and the long knife in his hand formed an impeccable shield around his and Jian Rongxin's bodies. It hit the sword and shield with a clanging sound.
The breakthrough point chosen by Hu Xiaotian was on the roof. There was a loud bang, and a big hole was made in the roof of the study. Hu Xiaotian appeared on the roof with Jian Rongxin on his back. Looking down, he saw dozens of black-clothed warriors had entered Jian's house. , outside the gate of Jian's mansion, a team of several hundred people had also arrived.
Hu Xiaotian did not dare to fight, so he jumped into the air and used the flying control technique. He flew towards the back door like a big bird. Dozens of feather arrows came towards him from behind. Hu Xiaotian waved his long knife in the air. Shoot down all the arrows aimed at you.
But before he landed, more than a hundred warriors swarmed at the back door. Hu Xiaotian tapped his toes on the wall and flew up again. He saw that the surrounding roads were full of soldiers and horses who had heard the news. Hu Xiaotian Although his martial arts skills are outstanding, he couldn't help but feel frightened when he saw the scene in front of him. Everything had indeed been prepared for a drastic change tonight.
At the critical moment, he saw a ray of white light swooping down from the sky. Hu Xiaotian looked intently and was overjoyed. It was a snow sculpture owned by Xia Changming. The snow sculpture was easy to hide in such a snowy night. In fact, it was already perched on the building opposite just now. On top of the eaves, he was motionless and seemed to blend in with the snow on the eaves, so no one noticed him.
Hu Xiaotian took a breath and faced the snow sculpture. His body landed firmly on the back of the snow sculpture. The snow sculpture flapped its wings and flew into the air. Although the load capacity of the snow sculpture was not as good as that of the Flying Owl, it could not carry two people in a short distance. question.
Xia Changming's real intention in sending the snow sculpture here was that the snow sculpture could be concealed easily and would not easily become the target of the opponent's shooter.
The snow sculpture loaded Hu Xiaotian and the two of them flew higher and higher and soon disappeared into the snow. The encircling army below did not see clearly what was happening. They aimed and shot arrows aimlessly in the air, but due to the interference of the heavy snow, they also added The snow sculptures flew extremely fast, and their shots did not cause any damage to the snow sculptures.
The eldest princess Xue Lingjun woke up from her dream. She had just had a nightmare. She dreamed that she was lying in a pool of blood. All the blood was flowing out from her body. She was so shocked that she broke out in cold sweat and covered her chest that was rising and falling rapidly. On her chest, Xue Lingjun gasped in shock. The wind and snow were still falling outside, but the room was as warm as spring. The rapid knock on the door startled her, and Xue Lingjun said angrily: "Who is it?"
The panicked voice of the personal maid Jian Ping came from outside: "Your Highness, there are many soldiers and horses coming outside, and the mansion is surrounded."
Xue Lingjun was shocked. She put on her long coat and got out of bed. Instead of opening the door immediately, she came to the window and listened. All she heard was the sound of falling snow. Everything seemed calm as before, but Jianping would not Deceive yourself.
He opened the door and let Jian Ping in. Jian Ping's body was also stained with a lot of snowflakes, and her pretty face was full of fear: "Your Highness, there are many people coming outside."
"Where are the troops?" Xue Lingjun was as calm as ever in the face of danger.
Jianping shook her head. She didn't know who sent the soldiers and horses outside. She only knew which soldiers and horses were just besieging the mansion and did not take the next step.
Xue Lingjun smiled lightly, walked to the bronze mirror calmly, and arranged his makeup in front of the mirror.
Jianping saw that she was still thinking about putting on makeup at this time, and couldn't help but said: "Your Highness..."
Xue Lingjun said calmly: "Help me comb my hair!"
In the Ci'en Garden, the cries were loud. The courtiers who received the news of the death of the old queen mother rushed here. Of course, not every courtier was qualified to receive the news, including the Grand Master Xiang Liren, the Minister of Personnel Dong Bingtai, and the Minister of Rites Sun Weiyuan.
.Xue Shengjing, King of Yan, knelt down in front of his mother’s body in full filial piety and cried so much that he couldn’t even cry.
Emperor Xue Daohong of Dayong and Xue Daoming, who was recently named King Ming, also came here after hearing the news. Concubine Dong Shu came with King Ming.
The people who were hardest hit by the death of the old queen mother were these old ministers. In fact, most of the people present were secretly afraid. Now the only person who can check and balance Xue Daohong is no longer there. He will definitely intensify his efforts in the future and use vigorous and resolute means to clean up.
These are people with different political views.
Xue Daohong cried for a while, and he said to Dong Gonggong: "The Queen Mother has always been in good health, how could this happen suddenly?"
Eunuch Dong sobbed and said: "Your Majesty... the Empress Dowager was fine at night, but soon after taking the decoction prescribed by Liu Changsheng, she suffered from abdominal pain. Before I could call the imperial doctor, the Empress Dowager was already dying...
It's all the slave's negligence. Your Majesty, please give me the death penalty..." He cried so hard that he was indeed a loyal slave in the eyes of others, but in fact, this man single-handedly planned the death of the Empress Dowager Chiang.
Xue Daohong said angrily: "I have long said that Liu Changsheng and his son cannot be trusted. I didn't expect that the Empress Dowager helped to save them. Instead of being ungrateful, they repaid their kindness with hatred. Come on! Let them be executed in Lingchi!"
On the side, Grand Master Xiang Liren said: "Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible!"
Xue Daohong said with a gloomy face: "Why not? Why not?"
Xiang Liren said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Liu Yucheng and his son are just doctors of the Shennong Society. Why do they want to harm the Empress Dowager? What is the benefit to them in doing such a thing? There must be someone behind them. I hope the Emperor
Don’t rush to avenge the Empress Dowager, find out the truth first.”
On the side, Eunuch Dong said again: "There is something I don't know whether I should say..."
Xue Daohong said angrily: "Why are you hesitating? Tell me everything. If you dare to deceive even a little bit, I will take your head."
Dong Gonggong said: "Actually, the Empress Dowager is not familiar with the Liu family and his son. It was because Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess interceded on her behalf that the Empress Dowager stepped forward to rescue the father and son from the Emperor."
Everyone's hearts sank when they heard this. Although King Yan Xue Shengjing never glanced here from beginning to end, he was paying attention to what happened here all the time. What Eunuch Dong said was indeed true.
But Xue Lingjun could not kill his own mother no matter what. What good would it do to her?
