The Emperor was kissed by the Regent and cried again

Chapter 184: Palace coup, Shen Jingli has no choice but to leave Beijing

Shen Xuan accepted the other two daughters, one as the Crown Princess and the other as a concubine. In this way, the Grand Tutor would definitely go through fire and water for them.

Prince Lin muttered to himself: "If I kill the emperor... can I really become the emperor?"

"Yes! Father, think about it. Shen Jingli is impotent and has no offspring. After his death, Dayuan will be leaderless. The country cannot be without a master for a day. Prince Yun is a sickly man. How can he compete with you?

Shen Xuan was afraid that Prince Lin would go back on his word, so he continued to comfort him, "Don't worry, father. You are the only choice for the Emperor of Dayuan!"

Prince Lin paused and said, "It's just that... the emperor was suddenly assassinated. Doesn't this arouse suspicion? Will anyone question whether I am a traitor?"

Prince Lin did not want to bear the charge of treason, as attempting to usurp the throne would surely leave him infamous for all eternity.

"So what if I doubt you? Besides, who would care about the real cause of death of a useless person? Don't worry, I will handle this matter thoroughly and will not reveal any flaws."

King Lin took a deep breath and said, "When do you plan to act?"

Shen Xuan's eyes were sinister: "Everything has been prepared. I will kill Shen Jingli tonight. This matter cannot be delayed. We need to cut the Gordian knot quickly!"

"Go ahead. This matter needs to be done secretly. Don't let anyone talk about it!"

Shen Xuan lowered his head, "Yes, I will never let you down."

After saying this, he quickly left the Prince Lin's Mansion.

----

Night falls.

Shen Jingli had no idea that danger was approaching and was still busy making medicine in Qianzhong Garden. She made a few voice-changing pills and some other medicines today.

Now, she has prepared the antidote for the blood spider. Starting from tomorrow morning, she will prepare a large amount of the medicine, and then order people to secretly bring the prepared medicinal wine to Xixu City and hand it over to Gu Sichen.

Gu Sichen was suspicious, so he only dared to pass the secret letter that arrived in Beijing to her through Nanny Qiu. If he asked Qin Yejue's people to take the antidote to Xixu City, he was afraid that he would refuse to accept it.

Nanny Qiu is steady and reliable, so please ask her to take the antidote to Xixu City.

Shen Jingli looked up at the sky, and Qin Yejue's face appeared in her mind again. She murmured, "Did you sleep well during this period?"

If Qin Yejue fails to find the Zhiyang Flower when he goes to Xuerui Country, she will double the amount of medicine that can suppress the cold for Qin Yejue in the future.

Let him no longer feel cold-hearted and have difficulty falling asleep.

……

"Your Majesty!" Nanny Qiu hurried to Qianzhong Garden. She looked nervous and almost fell down.

"Mammy, be careful and don't fall. What's the emergency that has you so flustered?"

Shen Jingli stopped what she was doing, stood up, and brushed the dirt off her clothes.

Nanny Qiu has always been cautious and has never shown such a frightened expression. Today, she was out of character and even breathed in her breath while speaking.

"Your Majesty! There are assassins trying to kill you. Run away."

"What?! Who wants to…"

Before Shen Jingli could finish his words, his attention was attracted by the sudden sound of fighting behind him.

Jiuxue is fighting against six burly men in black? ? !

Who on earth wants to kill me?!

"Your Majesty, we should not stay here for long."

Although Nanny Qiu didn't know who the woman was, she knew that the chances of winning were slim when she was fighting six people alone.

It would be better to let the emperor escape from here as soon as possible. She grabbed Shen Jingli's hand and wanted to take her away from Qianzhong Garden.

Seeing that both sides were evenly matched, Shen Jingli broke free from Nanny's hand and said, "Mammy, I will leave later."

Shen Jingli squatted in the corner, wanting to use the Moon-Lanping Bracelet to help Jiuxue reduce her burden.

She locked onto a target, observed his movements, and found the right moment to shoot a poison needle.

The first shot missed...

The second shot passed by the black-clothed man's ear...

The third shot, the poison needle finally hit the right arm of the man in black. The man in black felt numbness in his arm, so much so that he couldn't even hold the sword steadily.

Soon, his face turned pale, and the poison from the needle spread rapidly in his arm. The piercing pain made him unable to stand.

Seeing this, Shen Jingli's face lit up with joy. When she was about to find the next target to attack, the poisoned man's eyes suddenly became fierce. He stretched out his left hand to pick up the long sword that fell to the ground, and endured the severe pain and threw the sword towards Shen Jingli.

Nanny Qiu suddenly pushed Shen Jingli to the ground. The sharp sword flew over their heads, but fortunately they escaped.

The poisoned man in black was sweating profusely. He held his heart with a painful expression, and black blood flowed from the corners of his mouth. He fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

At this time, two other men in black noticed Shen Jingli. They wanted to kill Shen Jingli, but Jiu Xue was quick-witted and stopped them in time.

One man in black had already fallen, so it was not so difficult for Jiuxue to deal with the remaining five.

While fighting desperately with the man in black, she reminded Shen Jingli to leave Qianzhong Garden as soon as possible.

"You guys leave quickly!"

"Your Majesty, don't worry about it. The most important thing is to save your life first." Nanny Qiu grabbed Shen Jingli's wrist and walked into the bedroom.

As she walked, she said, "Your Majesty, I have thought about it and there is only one possibility. Someone must have taken advantage of the regent's absence to try to usurp the throne!"

"Who?"

Nanny Qiu's eyes turned and said, "It's either Prince Lin or Prince Yun. If something happens to you, the throne will naturally be theirs."

"But, Qin Ye..."

Aunt Qiu quickened her pace, "Your Majesty, please walk faster. You don't have much time left. They are eager to assassinate you. I'm sure the Regent will not be able to come back."

Shen Jingli's eyes turned red, "Impossible!"

"If the Regent can still return to the capital, they will certainly not dare to assassinate you! Your Majesty, the Regent is in great danger, you should flee as soon as possible."

"Mommy..."

Nanny Qiu interrupted Shen Jingli in time. She pulled Shen Jingli to the front of the passage, squatted down and moved the gray bricks away.

"Your Majesty, there is no time to lose. Please leave quickly. There is no light in the tunnel. If you hear any noise, don't be afraid. There are no ghosts or gods in the world."

"Once you get out, you'll be free."

Although Shen Jingli was unwilling to believe that Qin Yejue would get into trouble, she also knew that the situation was urgent at the moment and she could not stay in the palace for long.

"Mommy..."

Aunt Qiu knew that she couldn't delay any longer, otherwise, they would all die! !

She made up her mind and closed her eyes.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry for offending you." After saying that, Nanny Qiu pushed Shen Jingli down the tunnel.

"ah!?!?"

Shen Jingli screamed in surprise. She felt a darkness in front of her eyes for an instant. Just as her feet landed, the entrance to the secret passage closed seamlessly.

At this moment, Shen Jingli's anxious voice came from underground: "Mammy, what about you and Songzhu?! Hurry up and go to Longxiao Palace to find Zheyu!!"

"Mammy, I will definitely come back!"

"Nothing can happen to you!!"

After hearing Shen Jingli's voice, Nanny Qiu's heart finally settled down.

Fortunately, the little ancestor was not frightened to death.

"Your Majesty, are you okay? Did you sprain your ankle?"
