Traveling through a farmer’s house: Villain Nine Thousand Years Old, Stop!

Lin Chi got the instruction from Chi Jingrui and stood on one side with a sword in hand, staring at everyone with a pair of sharp eyes at all times.

Everyone felt the danger for no reason, but they still had to greet the situation with a smile and play along.

Young ladies from each family took turns to perform on stage, some played the piano, some sang and danced, and some even danced with swords.

Yun Zhixia sat in her seat looking at the woman dancing in the center, and couldn't help but pull Leng Jinye with her hand.

"Look at that woman, she has a slender waist and is a good dancer."

Leng Jinye raised his eyes and looked away in boredom: "Just a vulgar woman."

He did not miss the desire and greed in the woman's eyes, but it did diminish her beauty.

Just as everyone was enjoying the singing and dancing, a man staggered in.

"Your Majesty, I have something important to report!"

The person who suddenly broke in attracted everyone's attention. Chi Jingrui's eyes flickered and he waved his hand to let the man come forward.

The man was dressed in black, his face was pale, and he had an arrow in his chest.

As the man ran, the arrow feathers were still trembling slightly, and drops of scarlet blood dripped down the cracks of his palm.

The smell of blood irritated the noses of everyone present. The timid girls began to become restless, but were secretly controlled by their mothers.

This is a royal banquet. If you are not careful, you may lose your head at best, or even implicate your entire clan.

Not everyone can be as arrogant and domineering as the Xiang family, and not everyone can act as recklessly as Yun Zhixia.

At the high position, Chi Jingrui had a strange expression on his face and asked anxiously.

"Yang Xu, how did you become like this?"

The injured man was Yang Xu, the second son of a new noble family in the imperial city of Nanchang, and also Chi Jingrui's confidant.

When Yang Xu heard this, he knelt on the ground and shouted, "Your Majesty, I was ordered to go to Qinghedu to eliminate the bandits, but I discovered something terrible!"

"The bandits near Qinghedu are not bandits, they are all private soldiers of the Xiang family. They even mined iron ore privately and made weapons without authorization."

"I narrowly escaped death and returned to the imperial city, but was still shot by my family. I had no choice but to risk my life to enter the palace and report this to the emperor!"

As he spoke, Yang Xu spat out a mouthful of blood and fell into a coma.

"Someone, send Yang Aiqing to the Imperial Hospital for treatment!"

Chi Jingrui waved his hand, and someone immediately carried Yang Xu away.

Then he turned his eyes to look at the Xiang family, and said in a cold voice: "Shouldn't the Xiang family say something?"

Xiang Duan was not in a hurry. He sat in his seat without moving at all.

"Your Majesty, this is pure nonsense. Please look into it carefully!"

"Today is the Queen's birthday, let's not talk about these things that spoil the fun. Let's continue!"

Xiang Duan's two casual words were like two heavy slaps on Chi Jingrui's face!

Compared with Xiang Duan, Chi Jingrui's behavior seemed like that of a child making unreasonable troubles.

Chi Jingrui didn't say much. He was determined to kill all the members of the Xiang family today!

Thinking of this, Chi Jingrui looked at Lin Chi and ordered: "Lin Chi, I order you to capture the Xiang family."

"If anyone dares to resist, behead him on the spot!"

Lin Chi's eyes were filled with hatred; he had finally waited for this day!

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Lin Chi took the order, and the guards behind him surrounded Xiang's family.

"Please ask the Prime Minister!"

Xiang Duan ignored Lin Chi and looked at Chi Jingrui instead. He did not miss the excitement and bloodthirstiness in Chi Jingrui's eyes.

Thinking of the secret report sent by Xiang Jiunian, the second son of the Xiang family, Xiang Duan raised a proud arc at the corner of his mouth. It's time to change the person in Nanchang State!

Xiang Duan stood up, waved his hand and threw the teacup to the ground, and a large group of guards rushed in from outside!

"This subordinate greets Prime Minister Xiang!"

The leader is the confidant of the Xiang family and Xiang Du's right-hand man. As the deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, Xiang Du naturally holds real power.

If Yun Zhixia hadn't just made a fuss and Xiang Du hadn't been seriously injured, it would be Xiang Du who would be leading the people here now!

The two sides drew their swords against each other, which frightened the ministers present.

The ministers of Chi Jingrui's faction rebuked the Xiang family: "Prime Minister Xiang, what are you doing? Are you trying to rebel?!"

"Noisy!"

Xiang Duan took the long sword from the soldier and stabbed him in the neck. Blood gushed out continuously, and the minister who was still shouting just now was already dead.

"Master, wake up!"

"Father, father..."

All the minister's family members ran out and knelt in front of the body, crying bitterly.

Xiang Duan did not react at all. He pointed the bloody sword at Chi Jingrui with a disdainful sneer.

"Chi Jingrui, I helped you win this throne! It's only been a few years, and you want to destroy the bridge after crossing it and throw the donkey away after it's done its work?"

"I tell you, it's impossible! The Fifth Prince has grown up now. If you abdicate today, you can still save your dignity!"

"If you refuse to give up the throne, I don't mind washing this palace with blood!"

Snapped……

Chi Jingrui was furious. He had always known about the Xiang family's evil ambitions. But when this day finally came, he was still extremely angry!

"Xiang Duan, you are deceiving the emperor and your superiors. Do you want to implicate the Nine Clans?!"

Chi Jingrui was so angry that his chest heaved violently, but he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"vomit……"

The blood sprayed into the fruit plate on the table, splattering all over the table.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Concubine De was shocked and quickly supported Chi Jingrui. However, Xiang Mingyue did not move.

Concubine De was wearing a blue and pink palace dress, and her pretty face was full of worry.

She looked to be only about twenty years old. Although her appearance was not stunningly beautiful, she was gentle and generous. In addition, she was considerate and attentive, so Chi Jingrui named her Defei.

Some time ago, in order to suppress Xiang Mingyue, Chi Jingrui even handed over all the affairs of the harem to Concubine De.

Chi Jingrui was supported by Concubine De. He looked at the blood in front of him and couldn't help feeling a little panic.

I am now in my prime, and I often vomit blood during this period. This is definitely not normal!

Defei looked at Chi Jingrui's expression, rolled her eyes and spoke intentionally or unintentionally.

"Your Majesty, why do I feel that your health has been getting worse these days? You are in your prime, this shouldn't happen, right?"

"My beloved concubine is right!"

Chi Jingrui’s mind began to recall what had happened during this period, and finally stopped at the incense burner in the bedroom!

Could it be that Xiang Mingyue is harming herself? !

Chi Jingrui suddenly looked at Xiang Mingyue beside him, and seeing her sitting in her seat indifferent, he became even more certain!

"Bitch, are you the one who harmed me?"

Chi Jingrui was so angry that he reached out and grabbed Xiang Mingyue's neck.

Seeing this, Concubine De added fuel to the fire: "Your Majesty, please calm down. My sister is sincere to you. You are a young couple and have a deep affection for each other."

"My sister is kind to you. Didn't she send you some precious spices some time ago?"
