Chapter 215 - Chapter 215 - Yun XieWei Guanshu panted heavily. She stood unsteadily on the ground, his face filled with grief: "Your majesty, this subject and woman are afraid and uneasy all day, hoping that one day they would be able to expose the crimes committed by those disorderly subjects. This subject and daughter have the same heart as little sister Iris, both hoping that the emperor would immediately kill those disorderly subjects to protect my Eastern Chu"s An Tai."
The corner of Wei Yuanwei"s mouth hooked up into a smile: "My daughter-in-law, please help my sister. For my sister to be able to eliminate her relatives in a righteous manner, she can be said to be a hero amongst women. The women of the Eastern Chu should follow her example and everyone should follow her example, thus the entire Eastern Chu is filled with loyal and patriotic people."
How could Wei Guanshu not hear the mockery in Wei Yuanwei"s voice, it was just that at this moment, she could only endure it.
"Hahaha!" Prime Minister Wei suddenly erupted into crazed laughter. His eyes reddened as he glanced at Wei Guanshu, then shook his head and sighed.
In the end, Prime Minister Wei"s gaze fell on Wei Yuanwei"s body. He grinded her teeth and said: "This old man only hates that you didn"t die at that time, which was why I allowed you to stand in the great hall today and frame this old man."
"It"s my fate, Prime Minister Wei should accept his fate." Wei Yuanwei said indifferently. She felt sorrow for the Prime Minister Wei and trembled as she served as an official for dozens of years. In the end, she died in her ambition and conspiracy.
Prime Minister Wei"s eyes flashed with ferocity, he suddenly raised her sleeves, and the signal tube in her hand released a sound, followed by the sound of swords clashing outside.
A few guards who were standing in the great hall stood beside Prime Minister Wei and pointed their swords at the group.
The Emperor looked at the Prime Minister Wei with wide eyes. "You actually dare to rebel?"
"This old official only wants to leave a way out for himself." Prime Minister Wei wiped off the blood on her mouth and slowly stood up.
"Kill him for me!" The emperor ordered the imperial guards next to him. He couldn"t care less about the wealth of this country, he just wanted to kill this traitor.
"Your majesty, this old subject still advises you not to take action. If this old subject is unable to leave this hall safely, then someone will ignite the gunpowder that has been lying in ambush around the hall. At that time, all of the outstanding talents in the imperial court will accompany your majesty in death." There was no longer any trace of servility in Prime Minister Wei"s eyes.
The current him was like an angry wolf. The person he hated the most was not the one who had plotted against him, Wei Yuanwei, but the Wei Guanshu who had betrayed him.
The loyal imperial guards quickly surrounded the emperor to prevent him from being harmed. No one was there to protect the women in the palace.
"Grandfather." Wei Guanshu made a delicate appearance, her eyes filled with tears, as though he was trying to arouse the pity in the Prime Minister Wei.
Prime Minister Wei raised her hand and ruthlessly slapped Wei Guanshu in the face, causing Wei Guanshu"s delicate body to stagger and fall to the ground.
"It was all in vain for me to hurt you so much in the past few years. I didn"t expect the person who stabbed me in the back to be you!" Prime Minister Wei was still not satisfied. He pulled Wei Guanshu"s hair and smashed Wei Guanshu"s head against the engraved bronze pillar in the hall. Her miserable voice was enough to frighten everyone in the hall.
Princess Xi Ya was so scared that he leaned towards Wei Yuanwei. After all, she was one of the partic.i.p.ants in the plan and now that the plan had failed, she was worried that this crazy old man would take it out on his.
Wei Guanshu had already fainted, and Prime Minister Wei gave her a heavy kick before slowly turning around.
A warm smile had already returned to his face. "Your Majesty, now that the tide has pa.s.sed, this subject humbly requests that Your Majesty return to the government and the crown prince."
The emperor"s face revealed an expression of awakening to reality. No wonder the Prime Minister Wei had so smoothly planted their hands within the sacrificial crowd. So it was because of the crown prince, no, it should be the Abandoned Crown Prince.
He had originally thought that the unfilial son would gain intelligence from a setback, but he didn"t expect that his humble and weak att.i.tude was only for the sake of showing himself.
"In your dreams!" The Emperor was so angry that he felt pain in his chest. He was definitely going to rip apart that unfilial son of his with his bare hands. He was going to make it so that he would never be able to stand up for the rest of his life.
Prime Minister Wei suddenly walked towards Wei Yuanwei and pulled out the sword from his waist, placing it on Wei Yuanwei"s neck. "Even though Evil King is guarding outside, the emperor must not forget, this granddaughter of mine is still his flesh and blood. As long as I place my sword on her neck, Xie w.a.n.g will not dare to act rashly."
At this moment, the great hall"s door was suddenly kicked open, and Yun Xie suddenly appeared. Only, she was currently covered in blood, her long sword was still dripping with blood, and even her silver mask was also stained with a few drops of blood. His eyes were filled with killing intent, and her body emitted a terrifying evil aura, as though she was an Asura who had stepped on a dense pile of bones from h.e.l.l.
When Prime Minister Wei used more strength, a shallow b.l.o.o.d.y wound appeared on Wei Yuanwei"s snow-white neck.
Yun Xie stopped in her tracks. Seeing the blood traces on Wei Yuanwei"s neck, his pupils suddenly shrank.
Prime Minister Wei stretched out her hand and grabbed Wei Yuanwei"s neck, placing Wei Yuanwei in front of him, he smiled sinisterly: "I never thought that this little girl would be able to be of use."
"Let her go." Yun Xie"s voice was ice-cold.
"She is your life, so she can naturally protect me. Why would I let her go?" The wrinkles on Prime Minister Yun"s face pressed together, making him look sinister and ruthless.
"My son, kill him!" The Emperor only wanted to kill Prime Minister Wei at this moment. He didn"t expect that even though Prime Minister Wei had the ambition to hide by her side for so long, the Emperor knew nothing about it.
Prime Minister Yun"s guard had already clashed with the imperial guards. The entire palace was filled with the glow of blades and swords, blood and flesh splattering everywhere.
Princess Xi Ya was so scared that he hugged his head and hid behind a pillar. He still felt that it was not safe as she crouched down and wiped the blood off the dead man"s face before collapsing on the ground motionlessly.
"As long as you let her go, this king will let you safely leave the great hall." Yun Xie had already gathered the red secret guards, and at this time, the red secret guards had already started encircling and annihilating the criminals. Even if he allowed the Prime Minister Wei to leave, the Prime Minister Wei might not even make it down the mountain alive.
"Hehe, you should kneel down and beg me, begging me to let you go, do you know that the entire Heavenly Maiden Mountain has already been buried with gunpowder? As long as I hook my fingers, all of them will be turned into ashes. I have lived for so long, it would be worth it to be able to have the people of the royal family accompany me in death. When I wait for the Crown Prince to ascend the throne, I will also think highly of them.
The Prime Minister Wei was really crazy, it was just that he did not expect that the would have already captured the crown prince long ago when he was on his way down the mountain to the imperial palace to ascend the throne. Furthermore, the red secret guards used his keen sense of smell to pinpoint the location of the gunpowder.
"Prime Minister Wei, you really are too old to see clearly. Someone bring Abandoned Crown Prince up." Yun Xie waved her hand.
