A red apricot is about to cheat on you
Chapter 115 The situation is not good
With a loud shout, everyone who was originally immersed in singing and dancing suddenly panicked.
The graceful dancers in the center all looked at the emperor above with sharp eyes.
Jiang Wanyin, who was standing by, knew that this place would be blocked off soon, and it wouldn't be long before the fact that she had arranged the poisoned wine would be discovered.
Jiang Wanyin looked stern. He pulled out a sharp blade from his bosom and stabbed it towards the emperor.
At the same time, the seven dancers also waved colorful silks, and with the blessing of their inner strength, the silks swept towards the emperor.
However, the royal guards were no ordinary people. In the blink of an eye, a group of guards rushed over like a tide and instantly entangled with the dancers.
This sudden change made An Tingfeng below open his eyes wide in shock.
His heart seemed to be gripped by an invisible hand. He looked at Jiang Wanyin in panic. He never expected that his aunt would assassinate the emperor without telling him.
The princes below were extremely anxious. They desperately wanted to rush forward to stop the assassins and protect the emperor, but the chaotic scene prevented them from getting close.
Just when Jiang Wanyin's sharp blade was about to pierce the emperor's eyebrows, Chu Jingchen, who was not far away from the emperor, flashed and stood in front of the emperor.
Jiang Wanyin's fierce attack was blocked by Chu Jingchen. The powerful impact made Chu Jingchen retreat backwards and retreat to the side.
A hint of determination flashed in Jiang Wanyin's eyes. She kicked a carved sandalwood table beside her towards Chu Jingchen.
Yi Duoer saw this scene from the side and couldn't help but look at Chu Jingchen worriedly, her eyes full of fear.
Chu Jingchen's face was calm. He just waved his hands and the table was instantly split into two halves, with wood chips flying everywhere and falling apart.
Jiang Wanyin did not pause at all. She was as agile as a swallow and took advantage of the brief chaos to fly towards the emperor again.
At this time, there was already a group of guards blocking the emperor. Although Jiang Wanyin's martial arts skills were not low, he was still slightly inferior to a master like Chu Jingchen.
Soon, Chu Jingchen slapped out again, and Jiang Diyin was unable to dodge and was knocked away.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the dancers shot five sharp arrows in succession towards the emperor, the queen and Chu Jingchen.
There was a "swish" sound of something breaking through the air. Seeing this, Yi Duoer didn't care about anything else and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Be careful!"
Chu Jingchen reacted very quickly. He flashed and waved his hands like a phantom, catching all five sharp arrows steadily and throwing them to the ground. He looked at the killers coldly.
Soon, under the leadership of Chu Junye, the guards swarmed out. Although the dancers were highly skilled in martial arts, they were ultimately outnumbered. In the end, they were subdued one by one by Chu Junye and the guards.
After being subdued, the dancers still cursed unwillingly, "Dog Emperor!" and then tried to commit suicide by taking poison. The guards were quick to stop them.
At this time, Chu Jingchen still held Yi Duoer tightly behind him, his eyes like an icy cold pond.
At this moment, Yi Duoer's eyes swept over the killers one by one. When her sight fell on Jiang Wanyin, she was stunned.
She recognized Jiang Wanyin as An Tingfeng's servant. Yi Duoer couldn't help but glance at An Tingfeng and found that he was trying hard to suppress his worry, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white from the force.
An Tingfeng also looked at her, and their eyes met for two seconds, but this time, An Tingfeng's eyes were filled with coldness and danger. He knew that Yi Duoer had met Jiang Wanyin.
"Seventeen. I..." When Yi Duoer was about to tell the truth in Chu Jingchen's ear, Chu Jingchen interrupted her softly and said in a very gentle tone:
"Don't be afraid, it's dangerous here. I'll have someone take you back first." Chu Jingchen then asked Han Bo to escort Yi Duo'er away. An Tingfeng saw all of their actions, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
"Tell me, who are you? And who ordered you to assassinate the emperor?" Chu Junye's tone was as cold as ice. She looked at Jiang Wanyin coldly.
Jiang Wanyin laughed, her laughter was filled with coldness and despair, and every note seemed to come from an ice cellar.
This bastard emperor executed the entire Jiang family and committed the crime of genocide. She looked up at the emperor with eyes filled with endless hatred.
Seeing that she didn't open her mouth, Chu Junye revealed a bone-chilling smile, "It doesn't matter if you don't say anything. There are 108 torture instruments in the Imperial City Bureau anyway, and there's always one that can make you speak." Her tone was full of confidence, as if she had already seen the scene of Jiang Wanyin begging for mercy in pain under the torture instruments.
The emperor frowned and took a few steps forward to look at Jiang Wanyin. However, he searched his memory and did not recognize the woman in front of him. He asked with a puzzled look, "Who are you?"
"Bah, you dog emperor! If I can't grind you to dust, I won't let you go even if I become a ghost." Jiang Wanyin almost roared, her eyes bulging and bloodshot.
The next second, Chu Junhuai kicked Jiang Wanyin hard on the shoulder. Jiang Wanyin's body trembled violently and a trace of blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
An Tingfeng felt as if thousands of arrows pierced his heart when he saw this. He immediately clenched his fists, veins popped out on his forehead, and anger and hatred emerged in his eyes, but he tried his best to restrain himself.
After taking a deep breath, he immediately stepped forward and knelt down, saying: "Your Majesty, I am willing to interrogate these guilty women and will find out the person behind the scenes within three days." An Tingfeng's voice was loud and firm, and he looked straight at the emperor with his eyes full of earnestness.
But how could other princes let go of such a good thing as making meritorious deeds in front of the emperor? Chu Junhuai and Chu Junye were both vying to interrogate these killers, neither of them giving in.
Seeing that his request was fruitless, An Tingfeng became more and more anxious, so his words became more firm. This action aroused the dissatisfaction of the two princes, and they looked at An Tingfeng with displeasure in their eyes.
At this moment, Jiang Wanyin glanced at An Tingfeng, and there was a trace of heartache and deep guilt in his eyes that no one noticed.
She knew that An Tingfeng did this to save her, but it would also put him in a desperate situation.
Jiang Wanyin didn't want to embarrass An Tingfeng, so she said meaningfully:
"It's okay, sisters. Death can be as heavy as Mount Tai or as light as a feather. There's nothing wrong with that. It's all your own destiny."
As she spoke, she turned to look at the dancers beside her, then secretly glanced at An Tingfeng with a bitter smile.
An Tingfeng understood what she meant and felt very uncomfortable, but he pretended to be calm on his face.
The emperor was extremely upset at the moment, and seeing them arguing over merit, he felt even more depressed. He said impatiently:
"I leave this matter entirely to the Regent. You must get the truth." After the emperor finished speaking, he snorted coldly and walked away.
After Chu Jingchen took over, no one dared to fight for it anymore, as they all knew how cruel and ruthless Chu Jingchen was.
At this moment, everyone gasped, and recalled the indiscriminate attacks of the killers just now, and couldn't help but feel a lingering fear.
In this assassination, some people were injured, and even several guards were killed. Chu Jingchen's expression remained calm. He glanced around and said, "Take them away first! Everyone here will be interrogated!"
At the command, Han Bo immediately bowed in response!
An Tingfeng knew very well that Chu Jingchen's methods were cruel and ruthless. He understood that it was impossible to break into the prison and rescue Jiang Wanyin.
Now, he couldn't reveal his identity because he didn't have any solid evidence to overturn the Jiang family's case. He stood there, thinking for a moment, his expression becoming more and more fierce.
Yi Duo'er was in Chu Jingchen's tent at the moment, extremely anxious. She paced back and forth in the tent like an ant on a hot pot, her brows furrowed tightly together, as if she could pinch a fly to death.
Finally, Yi Duoer, unable to contain her anxiety, left the tent. Several guards outside the tent saw her and immediately stepped forward to stop her. However, Yi Duoer didn't care and threatened the guards. The guards had no choice but to let her go.
Yi Duoer rushed to the center of the camp to find Chu Jingchen. She wanted to tell him that Jiang Wanyin was An Tingfeng's man.
Unexpectedly, just as they turned a corner, An Tingfeng suddenly appeared, holding a dagger, and flashed behind Yi Duoer like a ghost.
He pointed the dagger at her neck and quickly dragged her to a deserted place behind a big tree.
An Tingfeng looked at Yi Duoer with sharp eyes. The dagger was pressed tightly against her neck. Any slight movement would cut her carotid artery. Yi Duoer could even feel the chill coming from the dagger.
Yi Duoer looked at him, terrified. Her body trembled slightly, and her face turned pale. She knew that An Tingfeng was here to kill her and silence her.
An Tingfeng's voice was as cold as if it came from hell: "Go and ask Chu Jingchen to let the killer go." His tone was anxious and even trembling.
Yi Duoer forced herself to calm down. She quickly looked at An Tingfeng and realized that this killer had an unusual relationship with him.
