Empress Pei Man's face turned red when she heard this. She could faintly sense that Wei Wang had some bad intentions towards her, so she deliberately preempted Jin Xizong to get him to speak his mind. Even though she was prepared, she still didn't expect him to be so dirty. She was so angry that her face turned red, and her eyes flashed with killing intent.
"Your Majesty, there are two pools of blood on the bed. The two little princesses have many signs of being abused, and their undergarments and inner thighs are stained with Wei Wang's … bodily fluids." A palace maid had already received Jin Xizong's signal and checked the two little princesses' bodies. Because Wei Wang was the only man in the hall, they subconsciously thought that the things were left on the two little princesses' bodies by Wei Wang.
Jin Xizong's expression became even uglier. He suddenly shouted, "Secret guard, get out here." Just as he finished speaking, a figure flashed out of the shadows.
Even though Empress Pei Man knew in advance that the other party was Song Qingshu in disguise, she couldn't help but be shocked when she saw the identical secret guard in front of her. No wonder he was able to fool me when he pretended to be Xiao Xingguo.
"Speak, why did Wei Wang become like this?" Even though Jin Xizong was angry, he wasn't completely muddle-headed. He knew that he couldn't completely believe the empress' side of the story, so he called out the secret guard he had arranged by Wei Wang's side to question him.
"Wei Wang drank some wine today and suddenly became interested. He said that he wanted to visit Her Majesty. In the end, after he came, I don't know if it was because of the alcohol, Wei Wang … Wei Wang …" Song Qingshu suddenly stuttered.
"Continue." Jin Xizong's breathing became rapid.
"This subordinate doesn't dare to say." In order to act more realistic, Song QingShu deliberately circulated his True Qi and pretended to be trembling all over. Seeing this, Empress Pei Man was stunned. She thought that her acting skills were good enough, but compared to this man, it was really nothing.
"I told you to speak!" Jin Xizong's voice became even colder.
Song Qingshu took the opportunity to add, "Wei Wang was tipsy and was a bit … a bit touchy towards Empress. The two little palace maids serving Empress stopped Wei Wang and Empress took the chance to run out. Wei Wang saw that these two young girls were beautiful and didn't have the mood to chase after Empress. He pulled the two of them onto … onto the bed."
"Then why didn't you stop King Wei?" Jin Xizong shouted.
"This subordinate tried to persuade Wei Wang, but Wei Wang did not listen to me and even scolded me. This subordinate is only a servant, and Wei Wang is the master. Whatever the master wants to do, it is not appropriate for us to interfere. This subordinate could only protect Niangniang and prevent Wei Wang from making a grave mistake. As for the two palace maids, this subordinate originally thought that it wasn't a big deal, "Song Qingshu hurriedly apologized," Before this, I really didn't know the identity of these two little palace maids. Emperor, please investigate! "
"Zhen kept you by Wei Wang's side, other than to protect him, to supervise him. But you neglected your duties. What is the use of zhen keeping you? Kill yourself. "Jin Xizong pulled out a knife from the guard beside him and threw it in front of Song Qingshu.
This time, it was Song Qingshu's turn to be dumbfounded. He couldn't really take the knife to his neck. His mind spun and he quickly had an idea. Originally, he had been worried that Jin Xizong would put him in prison and interrogate him. Since that was the case, he would take the opportunity to escape.
Song QingShu slowly picked up the knife, but he did not slash it across his neck. Instead, he abruptly shot it toward Jin Xizong. While the Imperial Bodyguards were busy protecting the Emperor, he took advantage of the chaos to fly out of the Hall.
Da Xingguo, who was constantly on guard beside Jin Xizong, used his sleeve to block the knife. With a flick of his sleeve, the knife shot towards Song Qingshu's back at an even faster speed. A muffled groan could be heard in the night sky.
A trace of surprise flashed across Da Xingguo's face. He didn't think that the person would be able to run after being hit by his knife. "Quickly, take some people to chase after him. He was hit by a knife and is heavily injured. He can't run far."
"Yes!" A group of guards hurriedly chased after him. Zhao Huan'er and Zhao Yuanyuan were frightened and hurriedly looked at Empress Pei Man as if asking for help. Pei Man hurriedly signaled with her eyes for the two girls to calm down. Thinking that his martial arts were so strong, the two girls slightly relaxed.
Song Qingshu, who had just escaped from outside the Hall of Taihe, was suddenly pulled by a soft hand. He looked and saw that it was the yellow-robed woman.
"Come with me." The yellow-robed woman said softly. She pulled him and hid behind a rockery to the side, just in time to avoid the imperial guards who were chasing after them.
"How could you be so careless?" Looking at the knife in his back, a trace of distress flashed across the yellow-robed woman's face.
"It's okay, it's just a superficial wound." Song Qingshu smiled slightly and used his inner strength to shake the knife out of his body. In reality, with his martial arts, it was almost impossible for Da Xingguo to hit him. However, in order to not be seen through, he could only take the knife. He had already used zhenqi to protect his back, so the knife was caught less than an inch into his back. In the end, he only suffered a superficial wound.
The yellow-robed woman examined the shallow wound on his back and roughly understood what he was thinking. She couldn't help but say, "Do you have to risk your life to help that woman?"
"This is not only to help her, but also to help you." Song Qingshu smiled carelessly. "Right, why did you come back?"
"Of course I'm worried about you... you guys, so I came back to take a look." The yellow-robed woman blushed slightly.
Song QingShu nodded and said, "Now there is a very powerful master by the side of the Jin Kingdom's emperor. Although we are not afraid of him, if we are discovered by him, it may ruin the whole plan tonight. So, let's not go in now. Let's just wait and see."
The yellow-robed woman looked around. The two of them were in a narrow cave in the rockery. If they moved a little too much, they would touch each other's bodies …
After hesitating for a moment, the yellow-robed woman finally nodded with a red face. "Okay."
At this time, Jin Xizong, who was in the Hall of Peace and Harmony, did not pay attention to the escaped secret guard. Instead, he looked at Wei Wang with fire in his eyes. He had long taken a fancy to the two little princesses of the Song Dynasty. He had been waiting for them to grow up. They were growing prettier and prettier, ready to be eaten. However, they had been taken by another man. The depression and anger in his heart could not be expressed in words.
However, the other party was his only son. Jin Xizong glanced at Wei Wang angrily. After all, he was the ruler of a country and could distinguish the severity of the situation. It was only two women. Did he have to be jealous of his son? If this matter were to spread, wouldn't he become a laughing stock?
He opened his mouth slightly and was about to issue an edict to bestow the two Song Dynasty princesses to Wei Wang as concubines and end this matter once and for all. Suddenly, an imperial guard came over in a panic with a set of clothes in his hands. "Your … Your Majesty, we found a set of … a set of dragon robes on the bed."
"Dragon robes?" Jin Xizong's expression finally changed. An emperor could not care less about women, wealth, or corruption, but no one would not care about their throne.
Previously, when he looked at Wei Wang, there was more anger in his eyes. Now, the anger in his eyes had disappeared and was replaced by coldness.
Empress Pei Man was secretly pleased. Over the years, she had already figured out her husband's temperament. Everything that had happened before was just a prelude. This set of dragon robes was the biggest killer move.
Seeing the golden dragon robes, the eyes of the deranged Wei Wang suddenly lit up. He stumbled over and grabbed the dragon robes. At the same time, he shouted arrogantly, "Quickly give me … oh no, give me the dragon robes. Pei Man, come and kneel before me."
"Wei Wang, stop talking …" Da Xingguo could not help but persuade him. But before he could finish speaking, his eyes suddenly widened. He looked at the knife in Wei Wang's chest and then turned to look at Jin Xizong. He revealed a look of disbelief.
Jin Xizong said coldly, "Such an unfilial son is dead. Everything ends." Wei Wang grabbed the saber in his chest and spat out some meaningless words. He took a few steps back and finally fell to the ground, not making any more sounds.
Seeing this, everyone in the hall knelt on the ground, leaving only Jin Xizong standing alone. Empress Pei Man lowered her head and smiled slightly. This result was much better than expected. Speaking of which, it was all thanks to Song Qingshu's cooperation …
"If I hear even the slightest rumor about what happened here tonight, I won't bother to find out who said it. Everyone here will be executed immediately!" Jin Xizong said coldly and turned to leave. He did not even look at Wei Wang's body on the ground.
After the Emperor left, Empress Pei Man stood up and ordered the palace maids and eunuchs to clean up Wei Wang's body. Everything was done according to the etiquette of a prince. Although she hated Wei Wang to the core, she still had to put up a front.
When everything was settled, Empress Pei Man drove all the palace maids and eunuchs out, leaving only Zhao Huan'er and Zhao Yuanyuan. Song Qingshu and the yellow-robed woman took the opportunity to sneak in.
"Now that your wish has been fulfilled, it's time to talk about how to help us save people." She had been hiding with Song Qingshu in the cave for a long time. The two of them were so close that the yellow-robed woman's heart was still beating faster. She could only speak quickly to cover up her abnormality. "Huan'er, Yuanyuan, come to Big Sister."
The two girls looked at Song Qingshu with red faces. Just as they were about to go over, Empress Pei Man pulled them back. "They can't go with you now."
"You want to go back on your word?" The yellow-robed woman's phoenix eyes turned cold.
Empress Pei Man smiled and said, "Miss, don't be so overreacting. Think about it, such a big thing happened tonight, and the two of them disappeared in one night. Anyone would be suspicious, and it wouldn't be good for you to save the others."
"Then … alright." The yellow-robed woman agreed. "Then let's talk about how to save people."
Empress Pei Man was in a very good mood after getting rid of a big threat tonight. She did not mind the politeness in the other girl's words. She smiled and replied, "Like I said before, I can provide you with the antidote for the Wandering Powder and a token to leave the city. However, you will have to think of a way to save people. My identity is too sensitive and I cannot personally participate in this matter."
