Chapter 481 481. Escort
The prince threw the wooden table out with all his strength, knocking down one person.
But there were three more people coming towards this side, and they had no weapons in their hands. The prince was unable to resist them for a while.
The queen can ignore Emperor Qi, but she cannot ignore her son.
So he tried his best to protect him.
Just when the three of them were about to succeed and send Empress Qi and the Prince's family on their way, Lin Wang, Su Cheng, and Feng Jinlin fired three arrows at once outside, not missing anyone.
Two of them were hit in the chest and died on the spot.
But there was another person who was only hit by an arrow in the shoulder. Seeing the imperial guards from outside surrounding him, he knew that he could not leave alive, so he prepared to wipe his neck, but Su Cheng jumped up and caught him.
The arrow in his hand was kicked far away, and his jaw was removed to prevent him from biting his tongue and committing suicide.
Sudden change of circumstances allowed Emperor Qi's life to be saved.
He glanced at the three of them gratefully, and then looked at the prince.
"Well, I am lucky to have a good son like you! This prince is indeed right! The queen is also protecting her with all her life! Okay!"
The two people who were praised were standing on both sides of Emperor Qi. Looking at the other concubines and relatives of the emperor who were hiding far away, Emperor Qi felt tired of looking at them more than once.
“Your Majesty, the front and rear of Zining Palace have been surrounded by the imperial guards. No one can escape.”
Since the death of General Meng, Lin Wang has become Emperor Qi's most trusted person. From the commander of the Imperial City Army to the leader of the Royal Forest Army, he is in charge of the safety of the entire Imperial City.
Today's incident happened suddenly, but now that the person has been arrested, it is natural that he will be tried.
Looking at the Sixth Prince at this moment, it was as if he was not looking at his own son, but the enemy's prisoner.
“What else do you have to say!”
"Father! I've been wronged. I don't know where these people came from. Also, this gift was not prepared by me. There must be someone behind the scenes who wants to frame me. Please tell me, father!" "
"Hmph! Xiaoliu, the prince believes in you so much, but I didn't expect that you harbor evil intentions and intend to assassinate my father! I'm thinking that after the matter is completed, I will kill the prince too, so that you can sit in this position!"
Even if the sixth prince did not do this, he still had to make the crime clear to him.
This is a good opportunity given by God. Even if the sixth prince is found to be innocent in the future, he has not mixed up anything in it.
Hands are very clean.
Not only the sixth prince, but also the newly consecrated Concubine Liu Guifei also felt aggrieved.
He immediately fell to his knees and cried, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Xiao Liu is the most filial and timid child. How dare he find someone to assassinate Your Majesty? There must be a misunderstanding in this matter! There is a misunderstanding!"
Crying so hard that people couldn't bear to be moved by it, but Emperor Qi had just experienced a life and death disaster, so he didn't care at all about such worthless tears.
It was Feng Jinlin who suddenly stepped forward and said.
"The Sixth Prince and Concubine Liu are really good at acting. If it weren't for your kind faces, you wouldn't have deceived my eldest brother and almost killed him in Qingzhou!" "Your elder brother? What do you mean?"
"Reporting to your majesty, my eldest brother escaped from the devil's cave in Qingzhou by luck. He just returned home and revealed a shocking secret, so the minister took him into the palace in a hurry. Fortunately, he was able to stop the sixth prince in time, otherwise there would be consequences It’s unimaginable!”
Hearing the news that Feng Jinxu was still alive, not to mention Emperor Qi, even the sixth prince was surprised!
"How is it possible! I saw him being burned to death! How could he still be alive! Could it be that he was lying to his father! What is your Feng family's intention? Who was behind your instructions? Call him quickly!"
The sixth prince is also the master of beating snakes and circling sticks, trying to reverse the situation in a few sentences.
It's a pity that he was facing two brothers from the Feng family, and even if he had words, he couldn't explain clearly.
Soon, Feng Jinxu, wearing a black cloak, walked out of the darkness. His legs were still lame. The prince could see it at a glance and asked immediately.
“Feng Aiqing, what’s going on?”
“Back to my lord, this is a recurrence of an old injury caused by traveling for days, so it’s not a problem.”
“Eldest brother of the Feng family, the prince is now the crown prince. He announced this to the world a few days ago.”
Feng Jinxu was stunned for a brief moment, then lowered his head and said.
"I was in a hurry and didn't notice this. Please forgive me, Your Highness."
"It's okay, it's okay. Can you first tell me how you got this injury?"
The appearance of Feng Jinxu will basically crucify the sixth prince. The prince at this moment can't care about his title.
What's more, it was this shock that made people believe that he had come back from outside day and night, instead of hiding in the capital early.
It proves the authenticity of his words.
So Feng Jinxu began to talk about the events of the day with a righteous look.
"Weichen was ordered to go to the southwest to provide disaster relief with the Sixth Prince. When passing through Qingzhou, he felt a little unwell, so he didn't have dinner. Fortunately, he didn't have to eat at that time, otherwise Weichen would have been a pile of ashes today! After dinner, there was no After a while, everyone rested. Unexpectedly, they suddenly smelled the smell of kerosene. Wei Chen's guard had a good nose and skills. He immediately went out to investigate and found that someone was spreading kerosene around the house where we slept. Unfortunately, there was no time to inform everyone, so those people set fire to the inn."
He spoke word by word, and everyone present listened carefully.
"The guard wet the handkerchief and quilt, asked Wei Chen to put it on him, and ran out while there were many people. He planned to go find the Sixth Prince, but there was no one in his room at all! As a last resort, Wei Chen We had no choice but to leave first, but the poor guard was hit by a wooden beam during the process and died, and Wei Chen also accidentally fell into a dry well next to the inn due to slipping, and the old injury occurred at that time."
"Because he hit his head when he fell, Wei Chen fell into a coma for a long time. When he woke up again, he almost thought he was going to die in a dry well. Unexpectedly, he met some playful children who came to play here. Then he begged them to go home and find someone to rescue Wei Chen. From the people's mouths, the Sixth Prince told the world that Wei Chen was burned to death, and most of the supplies were also burned."
"Weichen was anxious and wanted to go back to see the situation. Who knew that late at night, he unexpectedly discovered that someone was secretly transporting things from the inn. The marks on the boxes were made by Weichen himself. Naturally, he recognized that those were supplies, so Hiding in Qingzhou and investigating secretly, Wei Chen found out a lot of things!"
Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed when they looked at the Sixth Prince.
At first I thought he was a hero for disaster relief, but I didn't expect that he would actually embezzle the supplies!
