Crazy criticism of the host’s beauty and seductiveness, the master’s love and flirtation
Chapter 110 The sick prince is pampered on his bed 24
Sui Yunjing was scared to death, but he still managed to hold on and maintain the most basic dignity.
Fortunately, he didn't need to speak, and the guards around him were doing their best to protect his safety.
Suiheng stared at the assassins around him, trying to find a suitable opportunity for him to show his loyalty.
The assassin was ruthless, but the royal guards were not vegetarians, and they did not let an assassin get close to Sui Yunjing.
Seeing that there was no chance, Sui Heng stood in front of Sui Yunjing and said sadly: "Father, you go first, I will take care of you here."
Sui Yunjing is not stupid. After all, he still has guards to protect him when he stays here. If he really takes the guards and leaves first, let alone whether the ancestral families of these princes will let him go. When the time comes, he Being too conspicuous as a single target will only make it more dangerous.
But the second child always jumped up and said that he wanted to protect it, but the suggestions he made were to kill him.
Are you so eager to get on top?
None of his sons can achieve anything, but they all have aspirations higher than the sky. They are unwilling to deal with him, a man who is about to enter the grave. They only want to surpass him and reach the sky.
He failed to grant their wish.
Liu Qingli saw clearly and knew that Sui Yunjing was unhappy.
But since she was fined and grounded last time, this idiot son and her have become more and more at odds with each other, and they hide everything they have to say and don't want to tell him.
Even though he had suffered such a big loss on his own, he was still stubborn.
Just like now, the words just come out of my head, as if I still feel that I can't die soon enough.
No matter how dissatisfied she was with this stupid son, she still had to make amends for him. Rourou weakly held Sui Yunjing's arm and said, "Your Majesty, I am so scared that I am still alive."
It would be okay if she didn't speak, but when she spoke, Sui Yunjing confirmed that the assassination had something to do with Sui Heng.
However, now is not the time to break up.
He comforted Liu Qingli symbolically: "Don't be afraid, my beloved concubine, but some bandits will be defeated soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from the pipeline at the foot of the mountain. The sound was so loud that it seemed like there were thousands of troops, adding another layer of gloom to the already nervous people.
At this time, why are there so many horses coming to the pipeline?
Judging from the direction, it was obvious that the reinforcements were not coming from Beijing.
Soon, the rapid sound of horse hooves turned towards the mountain, and everyone was stunned when they saw the black shadow at the foot of the mountain heading this way.
The people who came down from the mountain obviously did not expect that there would be other people in such a deep mountain at night. They rushed over without having time to rein in their horses and broke up the assassin's team.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the black-clothed assassins quickly retreated back. However, no one expected that there were many men in black among the two groups pursuing in the dark night, and they were mixed together with the assassins, making it impossible to distinguish them.
The men in black later ignored the chaos in the mountains and chased the people in front, shouting: "Ying Jue, as long as you follow us back now, we can give you anything you want."
The nine-foot-strong man in front of him didn't even look back and let out a loud voice that echoed throughout the mountain: "You think I'm stupid for being a grandpa? If I go back with you, grandpa, I'll be dead on the way!"
"Ying Jue, do you have to get into such a life-and-death situation? Are you ignoring General Yu's life and death?"
"You losers are threatening me with General Yu? When General Yu was fighting on the battlefield, your master was not weaned, right? When I present the evidence to the emperor, you will just wait to lose your head." After saying this, Ying decided happily. Laughed a few times.
The leader of the men in black saw that Ying was determined not to get any oil or salt, so he no longer held back.
The two parties who had been fighting here were stunned on the spot, not knowing what to do with the current situation.
But the later men in black didn't value human life and would kill everyone they met. After getting mixed up with the original men in black, the palace guards had an increasingly difficult time coping with it.
"The emperor is here, kill him quickly." Someone shouted in the chaos.
The chaotic scene froze for a moment, and then everyone looked in one direction.
Sui Yunjing's face was gloomy, and everyone saw his embarrassed posture as he wanted to take advantage of the chaos to leave.
For a moment, two men in black rushed to him.
The nine-foot strong man Ying Jue seemed very surprised. Seeing that the sword of the man in black was almost in front of Sui Yunjing, he rushed forward to block him: "Your Majesty, be careful."
"Pfft-"
The sound of the sharp blade piercing flesh was extremely harsh.
"His Majesty--"
"Father——"
In the face of the crisis, no one had time to make any reaction. They were stunned in place with their eyes wide open, and the scene seemed to be frozen.
Until the man in black reacted first, pulled out the blood-stained sword blade, and pulled out a stack of rolled-up books from Ying Jue's arms.
Ying Jue struggled to hold on to the fragile paper. As the two sides pulled, the book was torn in half, but the man in black had no time to make other moves and evacuated quickly.
Ying Jue watched the man in black leave, trying to stop him but was unable to do so, and eventually lost consciousness.
Sui Yunjing had not recovered from the thrill just now. He looked at the man in front of him who was blocking the knife for him, moved his lips, and squeezed out a few words from his throat: "Take him back and save him."
The stunned guards finally came to their senses and worked together to carry Ying Jue to the car.
Everyone was exhausted physically and mentally, and drove to the nearest market town without talking.
Ying Jue's injury was so serious that it would have pierced his heart even an inch higher. Sui Yunjing was still thinking about his conversation with the man in black and ordered him to be revived.
There were not enough medicinal materials in the town, so the imperial doctor who followed him could only try his best to stop his bleeding and save his life first.
The rest can only wait until they return to Beijing for treatment.
The overnight crisis was finally over. It seemed that the man in black would not come again in the short term, and some people quickly fell asleep with a heavy heart.
But some people are still worried about dying in their sleep, and they don't dare to sleep until dawn, when someone they know wakes up.
Sui Lin witnessed the whole process of Ying Jue's injury. Even though he was mentally prepared, he still couldn't help but get angry.
But the current situation made it impossible for him to even visit, so he could only wait for news.
Everything that happened last night was planned by them.
But their plan was based on Suiheng and Shen Hanzhang's plans.
Sui Heng had planned it early in the morning. A few days before the hunt, he acted like he would not fight or grab, so that Sui Yunjing could relax his vigilance against him.
Then, when the hunt was about to end, Shen Hanzhang would remove several groups of patrolling guards and take the opportunity to let in the assassins they had prepared in advance.
Sui Heng, on the other hand, hid in the dark and waited for the assassin to assassinate Sui Yunjing. When he appeared at the right time and blocked Sui Yunjing's blow, he could not only remove himself from the incident, but also win some sympathy.
Even part of his plan included Sui Lin. In such a chaotic scene, it was only natural for a weakling like Sui Lin to get hurt.
But all this was ruined by Sui Lin.
Before setting off, he and Ying Jue made a plan. Since Suiheng could use the knife-blocking move, why couldn't they.
In the first few days of the hunting, Ying Jue and his people kept watch around the hunting ground. As long as someone sneaky came, it meant that the other party's plan was about to begin.
And they had to rush to lead Sui Yunjing to a suitable place before Suiheng.
Ying must not appear in the hunting ground. He must go through the official road from the border back to Beijing. In order to get rid of the enemy, it is very reasonable to turn from the official road into the mountains. Even if Sui Yunjing was suspicious, he could not provide substantive evidence.
As for the men in black Sui Yunjing met halfway, they were indeed Sui Heng's men. They were not weak in strength, but they were warned in advance not to really hurt people. Even though their moves looked cruel, they had no actual effect.
In order to allow the two parties to meet at the right place, Sui Heng's team of men in black was assigned to Sui Lin's man, Fu Shiqi.
Fu Shiqi is a steady man, yet flexible when faced with difficulties. It is very suitable for him to go deep into the enemy camp to stir up the troubled waters.
The person who hunted Ying Jue was naturally the actor hired by Fu Shishi.
These people were all Fu Mingchen's subordinates, and they had received Fu Mingchen's approval beforehand.
This meant that Fu Mingchen knew everything about Sui Lin's plan from beginning to end, but he did not raise any objections and let Sui Lin do what he wanted to do.
When Suilin asked him why, he only said one sentence: It is wrong for a person in a superior position to have mediocre abilities.
Yes, Sui Yunjing did not make any big mistakes, but he worked hard in the first half of his life to finally get into that position, but he still looked back and forth, for fear that he would be criticized by officials and slandered by future generations if he made the slightest mistake.
It is not wrong to be cautious, but it is wrong to be too cautious.
The half of the paper that was taken away by Ying Jue was a forged account book by Sui Lin, and the recorder was the governor who colluded with Shen Hanzhang.
With only half of it left, Sui Yunjing would definitely be suspicious of it, but what Sui Lin wanted was his suspicion.
As long as there is suspicion, he will definitely investigate.
The conversation between Ying Jue and the man in black was clearly heard by the officials present. Even if Sui Yunjing didn't want to mention it, those people would force him to think of it.
The only surprise was that Ying Jue's injuries were too serious.
From the beginning, they decided that Fu Shishi would be the one to take action. Fu Shishi knew Ying Jue's identity and would act appropriately.
But he couldn't bear to let his child trap the wolf, so Ying Jue never felt sorry for him, so he went behind Sui Lin's back and asked Fu Shishi to be cruel to him.
Fu Shiwu usually looks careless, but when he really does it, he shows no mercy at all. What's more, Ying is definitely not the person he needs to protect.
The two hit it off immediately, and now they are lying in the hospital bed with their life and death unknown.
He didn't seem to worry at all that he wouldn't wake up.
If Sui Yunjing wants to investigate, even if Ying Jue doesn't wake up and Sui's presence is behind it, he will let Sui Yunjing get the truth.
And if Ying Jue is really dead, Sui Yunjing will be more convinced of the results he found.
Sui Lin took a breath and understood Ying Jue's idea.
Ying Jue was too seriously injured, and his meager mental strength was simply not enough. Before that, he had to maintain his physical functions to deal with the aftermath.
After Ying Jue's health stabilized, Sui Yunjing ordered him to return to Beijing as soon as possible.
When he went back, he sped up and returned to the capital in only three days. Those who stayed in the capital didn't know what had happened, but felt that a storm was coming.
The next day, Sui Yunjing rarely dragged his "sick body" to court.
Only then did the government and the public know that Sui Yunjing was almost killed by an assassin during his trip.
The king of a country was almost killed. Such a scandal caused everyone to request a thorough investigation into the matter, and the people behind the scenes must be brought to justice.
Sui Yunjing had not mentioned the words General Yu for many years. It seemed that if he said it, he would be completely defeated, so he asked Fu Mingchen to do it for him and tell him the cause and effect.
Ying Jue's body shape and appearance were very easy to recognize, and someone familiar with him in the court recognized that he was indeed a subordinate of General Yu.
Coupled with Ying Jue's conversation with the man in black before he fell into coma, it was now completely confirmed that the assassination was related to the border.
Could it be that something went wrong in the southern border, and the Yu family concealed it and refused to report it. His people could not see it and took the initiative to return to Beijing to report on their superiors.
The person who proposed this idea was immediately choked back by the people around him: "Ying Jue said good things about General Yu before he lost consciousness to protect the emperor. How could it be possible that something was wrong with General Yu?"
The man added: "Perhaps the Yu family did something scandalous behind Ying Jue's back."
The person who retorted laughed angrily: "If Ying Jie didn't know what the Yu family had done, how could he go to Beijing? If he knew, how could he speak for General Yu? Your words are clearly inconsistent, and it's a shame that you can speak so confidently."
After a while, the man finally came to his senses, blushed and stopped talking.
But what is the identity of the men in black and who is the master behind them? They are so bold that they dare to openly assassinate the emperor.
The men in black who assassinated the emperor and those who hunted Ying Jue were all dressed the same. Are they in the same group? If not, wouldn't it mean that there are two illegal forces lurking in Daxia.
No one would have thought that these words were taught to the man in black by Sui Lin. The blame could only be laid on the governor far to the south.
Sui Yunjing listened to the quarrel below with everyone's head spinning, talking and slandering the Yu family just to please him.
But these people are just low-ranking people in the court, and their words don't carry much weight.
Those who can truly speak have yet to speak.
The most panicked people in the entire court were undoubtedly Shen Hanzhang and Sui Heng. Half of the military pay that had been withheld went into their pockets. If they were discovered, their heads would be lost.
At the moment, they don't bother to think about why the good plan turned out like this. Before Sui Yunjing discovers the truth, they have to ensure that Ying Jue never wakes up again.
But it is easy to talk, but not so easy to practice.
Killing someone in a palace or in a place that is strictly protected is as difficult as going to heaven.
After a few days of calming down and thinking, Sui Yunjing decided from the bottom of his heart that he didn't want Ying Jue to wake up.
But many people witnessed Ying Jue saving him, so he could only let the imperial doctor diagnose and treat Ying Jue with all his heart, secretly hoping that he would die if he couldn't survive it.
But things went against expectations, and Ying Jue woke up five days later, bearing the resentment of several people.
When he woke up, he immediately handed over two pieces of evidence.
One is the account book of Guan Zhengling, the governor of central Sichuan, who embezzled military pay.
The second is the token that Ying Jue pulled from the man in black when he was injured.
There is a clearly visible word printed on it: years old.
