I am neither beautiful nor crazy
Chapter 68
Some people immediately recognized the corpse, and the discussion below suddenly became louder.
Before that, Jiang Qi only received the news from Wei Dong that "Xia Zhixing was taken away by Xiao Xiangling", and he didn't expect that the other party would really bring the corpse in front of everyone, so he couldn't help but clenched his fists secretly.
"Before the northern bandits rebelled, no one was willing to lead the army, and because of the death of the two princes, everyone avoided it like snakes and scorpions. At that time, only His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince took the initiative to stand up and was willing to personally risk the danger and lead the army to assist the northern border army. Was ambushed on the road and nearly died."
Xiao Xiangling's voice was not loud, but he threw a loud voice in the open space, "Later, His Royal Highness and I went to the Beikou barracks to negotiate peace. One soldier and one death. But this negotiation became the reason for His Highness to be falsely accused of collaborating with the enemy and treason, and ordered to return to the capital without any explanation, and after arriving in the capital, he was secretly ambushed and poisoned."
The crowd in the audience gradually turned to one side, and even had a basic guess about the origin of Xia Zhixing's body.
"Jiang Qi, as the current emperor, has used improper means to consolidate the throne, and together with the Taoist priests poisoned Jiangyu; in order to do whatever he wants, he will not hesitate to trick Prime Minister Xia Zhixing and let him obey your orders. In the end, he will be dealt with when the incident happens. He even made up excuses to deceive everyone in the court."
Xiao Xiangling slowly covered the white cloth back, and with a heavy muffled sound, the coffin lid fell back.He stood up and looked directly at Jiang Qi.
"Does Your Majesty want to tell the people of the world that this is the so-called law of the king and the so-called position of power? How is it different from the Northern Bandits who kill innocent people for the throne, do all kinds of evil, and deceive courtiers and people?"
The black-clothed Taoist fought back, and his voice became even shriller with excitement, "What evidence do you have to prove that what you said is true? A person who cooperates with traitors and uses military power privately, what right does he have to question the current emperor?"
"How difficult is the evidence?" Xiao Xiangling pointed to the coffin on the ground, "The arrows used by the dark guards in the palace are unique, and the wounds pierced in are also very recognizable. Why don't you ask your majesty to call the dark guards to have a try, and compare the arrows on his body?" You can tell when you compare the scars."
The Taoist priest looked flustered for a moment. He didn't understand the situation at the time, and he didn't know that Xia Zhixing committed suicide with Jiangyu's soft sword, not the dark guard's arrow.In desperation, he had to subconsciously stop Xiao Xiangling's actions, but regretted it the moment the order came out.
He shouted: "Shoot the arrow!"
He had already ordered hundreds of shadow guards to lie in ambush all around, ready to be called at any time.Once the situation is wrong, Xiao Xiangling will be executed on the spot.
But the moment he yelled these two words, it proved that what Xiao Xiangling said was all true, and he decided to kill to silence him only after he was furious.
In addition, the long-distance arrows do not have long eyes, so they are easy to accidentally injure. If you shoot the arrow at this moment, it will inevitably hurt the surrounding people.
But he couldn't take care of that much anymore.
But there was silence in the air for a few seconds, but no arrows shot down.
The phrase "letting the arrow" is like an insignificant pebble, which can't splash a little when it is thrown into the river.
The expression on the Taoist priest's face suddenly changed from panic to panic. He pointed at Xiao Xiangling with his finger, his eyes were so fierce that they could burst into flames.
"I forgot to tell the Taoist priest that the Northern Army is also here." Xiao Xiangling took the sword in his hand and took a few steps forward, "It was just in case the Taoist priest suddenly changed his mind and hurt me. It's no small thing to have so many innocent people around."
"I didn't expect the Taoist priest to really disregard the lives of so many people, just to save his face. Now that things have happened, he doesn't even dare to admit what he has done."
The people around were terrified by the sound of shooting arrows just now, but now they gradually regained their senses, and they all fell to Xiao Xiangling's side in an instant.
"It turned out to be such a person who doesn't take our lives seriously."
"It turns out that what I just said is true, otherwise I wouldn't be so angry."
Xiao Xiangling walked towards the Taoist priest slowly, the air pressure spread out unscrupulously, the difference in height and body shape was like a vigorous wolf marching towards a prey that pretended to be calm.
"Xiao Xiangling, you dare to plot against me." The Taoist gritted his teeth and said, "Don't think you can kill me, Jiang Yu is still poisoned by me, are you willing to kill me? You will beg me to help him undo it."
Xiao Xiangling didn't respond to this rude threat, but he didn't immediately raise his sword to stab him to death.After a long silence, he tore off the other party's coat and tied him tightly behind his back.
"You are rebelling!" The Taoist blushed with anger, but he had no strength to resist, "You are waiting for you..."
"No need." Xiao Xiangling lowered his voice next to his ear, and pressed his sword against his throat, "You would only beg me to allow you to cure Jiangyu's poison."
The Taoist priest wanted to say something, but there was a sudden exclamation from the crowd.
Xiao Xiangling turned his head to look, and Jiang Qi jumped off the chariot and ran in the opposite direction in a hurry, holding a sword that was drawn at random in his hand, scaring the people around him to give way immediately.
Xiao Xiangling ignored him, and turned his gaze back to the red-faced Taoist priest again, with a dangerous and frightening light in his eyes.
"You think you can control everyone with the Gu in your hand, but in fact, you are still Jiang Qi's dog after all, and it is hard not to be different if you don't enjoy the blessings. And you only need to remember one thing from now on, you All the crimes you have suffered since then are because you have harmed Jiangyu, and you deserve it."
Jiang Qi felt that he had never run so fast in his life. In a hurry, he didn't know if the sword he was waving in his hand had hurt anyone, or if he had been scratched by the surrounding vegetation, and he couldn't even hear the voice of the subordinate behind him calling him.
He ran until his heart almost jumped out of his throat, his lungs almost burst, and only then did he see the red wall of the imperial palace in the distance.
He saw that there was no one behind him, and then he was finally discouraged, half-sitting on the ground, panting and coughing violently.
It took a full two sticks of incense before he recovered from the state just now.And it wasn't until then that he realized what was unusual on the road.
This was the time for going to court, the Taoist told him that he had already made arrangements for going to court, Jiang Qi just went out with him to meet someone.
But now the palace was abnormally empty, he ran all the way without seeing many people.
Jiang Qi suddenly had an ominous premonition, he walked down the steps of the imperial palace with trembling legs, looked up, and saw that the gate was tightly closed, and there were no guards on either side of the gate.
He took a deep breath and walked up slowly.
Pushing open the heavy door, it was a bit dark inside, he adjusted to the light inside for a while, and then raised his legs and stepped in.
The hall was empty and eerily silent, but there was a person standing in the center of the hall with his back turned to him.
The man was dressed in a quiet white dress, and his figure was a little thin, and some bones could already be seen through the material on his shoulders.The shoulders are straight and tucked back, and the turning points show sharp angles.
"Jiang... Islet?" Jiang Qi opened his eyes wide in disbelief, feeling terrified instantly.
The man turned around slowly, Jiang Qi held his breath at that moment.He just felt that every angle the other party rotated was so long and unbearable, and he hoped that the person was not Jiang Yu.
But the words of the Taoist priest before couldn't help but flooded into his mind one after another.
"To change fate against the sky, the premise is that people must be capable enough."
"As long as he lives, he is the biggest threat to your throne."
He suddenly had great hostility towards the person in front of him, his right hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, ready to strike at any time.
But Jiang Yu didn't seem to notice his strangeness at all, his eyes drooped at a good angle, except for the slight whitening of his lips, the whole person looked normal.
"Third Brother." He said suddenly, his voice vibrating in the empty hall, "I don't seem to have had much contact with you since I was a child. I have been recalling the impressions of you when I was a child, but I can't remember anything."
He spoke very slowly, as if he was recalling carefully, "In my memory, the eldest brother is kind and gentle, and the second brother has always been against me, always thinking of harming me. But we haven't had much contact. Although we don't have much friendship, I also I have never done anything to offend you. Now that you are the emperor, I have no intention of taking the throne. I have no intention of usurping your power or taking your position. You could have slowly become a good king, listen more Others speak well."
"But." He sighed silently, "Why are you targeting me so much and insisting on pushing things to the present situation?"
Jiang Qi didn't respond, but just watched Jiang Yu's footsteps closely, planning for a suitable position so that he could stab his chest directly with his sword.
He seemed to be occupied by the Taoist priest's reminders over and over again every day, and he didn't want to think about it. He only knew that the existence of Jiangyu was the biggest threat to him.
Besides, Jiang Yu's appearance looked too deceptive. If he hadn't actually seen him holding a sword, he probably wouldn't believe that his sword skills were not too far behind Xiao Xiangling's.
Five steps, four steps, three steps...
"I didn't want to harm you, but you insisted on forcing me into this dilemma, poisoning me, causing me to be like this." Jiang Yu stopped and raised his head, "I want to hear an explanation."
At that moment, Jiang Qi stabbed forward with the sword in his hand.That sword seemed to have used all his life's strength, swift and fierce.
The sword tip was only an arm's length away from Jiang Yu, and the opponent seemed to be in a state of shock and did not move at all.
Jiang Qi almost laughed at that moment, only for a moment, and for another moment, he can completely get rid of this person who hinders him from becoming emperor, this person who is better than him in destiny and is supported by everyone.
Changing fate against the sky is not as difficult as that Taoist said.
But in the next moment, he suddenly felt a strong force forcefully pushing his sword point away.Before he could figure out what happened, he felt a tearing pain from his wrist, followed by the loud sound of the heavy sword falling to the ground.
He wanted to raise his head, but suddenly found that his body was a little out of control.He looked down in horror, only to see a dagger stuck in his chest, which was completely submerged, and blood rushed out from the hideous wound, with a desperate bloody smell and dirty red.
Jiang Qi's neck was turned to one side stiffly, and he found that his epee had been lifted far away, and the strong reaction force made his wrist lose his intuition.
The most frightening thing is that, from being sure of winning to being stabbed himself, but in an instant, he didn't even see how the other party was moving.
The fear of death crawled all over the nerves of his body belatedly. He felt the cold blade piercing his body, and the vitality was gushing out like blood. He could no longer control his body and fell heavily to the ground.
So this is what death feels like, he thought.
Before that, Jiang Qi only received the news from Wei Dong that "Xia Zhixing was taken away by Xiao Xiangling", and he didn't expect that the other party would really bring the corpse in front of everyone, so he couldn't help but clenched his fists secretly.
"Before the northern bandits rebelled, no one was willing to lead the army, and because of the death of the two princes, everyone avoided it like snakes and scorpions.
