Situ Manyao had always liked street dancing, and dynamic music coupled with that would make her look alluring.
Unlike these dances…
Situ Manyao was absent-minded, but there was no impatience on her face.
After the song ended, the dancers bowed to the Emperor and prepared to leave.
"Chu Yijing, I'll take your life!"
Suddenly, Situ Mantian heard a harsh sentence. He was shocked and his sleepiness was gone. A white figure flashed past his eyes.
Before Situ Manyao could react, the entire imperial garden was thrown into chaos.
Chu Yixuan's eyes darkened as he watched the woman in white stab at Chu Yijing with her sword.
The eunuchs and maids beside him all stood in front of Chu Yijing, shouting to protect him in panic.
Chu Yixuan was already weak and not agile enough, but the imperial guards were still coming. Chu Yijing's situation was really dangerous.
The woman didn't panic because of the situation in front of her. She stabbed her sword at Chu Yijing.
Chu Yijing dodged the sword, but the eunuch beside him was struck by the sword. He spat out blood and fell to the ground.
"Hmph, supporting such a fatuous ruler, he deserves to die!”
The woman snorted coldly and continued with her actions.
Chu Yixuan gritted his teeth and slammed his hand on the table. He jumped up and helped Chu Yijing block the sword in the blink of an eye.
Fortunately, his position was not far from the emperor. Otherwise, he would have been a step late.
Situ Mantian finally understood the situation. Seeing Chu Yixuan struggling to fight the woman, she could not help but smile.
When he was on top of her and tearing at her clothes, she thought that the medicine had no effect on him.
But now, it seemed that this was not the case.
Situ Manyao thought to himself that perhaps the effects of the medicine were still slightly safe at that time.
"The heavens are really helping me!"
Situ Mantian's eyes were fixed on the woman in white and Chu Yixuan's figure, hoping that the sword would pierce into Chu Yixuan's chest in the next second!
All the officials in the court gathered together, not daring to step forward. Situ Mantian glanced at them casually and could not help but sneer in her heart.
They usually fawned over the Emperor, but when they encountered danger, none of them dared to step forward!
How laughable.
Chu Yijing had already hidden to the side. Seeing that Chu Yixuan was struggling to resist, he said worriedly,""San Di, you have to be careful. Don't let her hurt you!”
Chu Yixuan did not have the strength to speak at this time. He pursed his lips tightly and his forehead was already covered in sweat.
Although the woman in white was only a woman, she was very powerless. She attacked again and again, but soon, she could not withstand it and was forced into a corner.
The situation was clear now. Situ Mantiao was a killer. Looking at the situation between the two, he naturally knew that Chu Yixuan would not be able to fight back within ten moves.
Thinking of this, the smile on Situ Mantian's face grew wider and wider. Thinking of all the things Chu Yixuan had done to her in the past, it was finally time for her to vent her anger!
But in the next second, her body swayed and she was in front of Chu Yixuan.
"Are you proud?"
The voice sounded like it came from hell, so cold that there was no warmth at all.
Situ Mannian's heart skipped a beat. Before he could react to what he was saying, he felt a sharp pain in front of him.
The hand that was placed in front of her body suddenly shrank back.
It hurts!
Situ Mantiao lowered her head slowly and looked at her white and elegant clothes, which were slowly stained with blood.
One circle after another, as if it was going to soak through the clothes.
Situ Mantian's pupils slowly dilated as she placed her foot on the sword that was still stuck in her body.
"You didn't expect me to come back this way, did you?”
Chu Yixuan hugged Situ Manyao from behind and looked down at her.
Situ Manyao didn't know if it was her imagination, but she actually felt that there was a smile in his tone.
Chu Yixuan glanced at the Royal Guards who had barged in. The woman in white had already taken advantage of the chaos when she stabbed Situ Mantian and carried her away.
He only left a pool of blood on the ground to tell everyone that what had happened just now had really happened.
Situ Mantian moved her lips, but she couldn't help but suck in a cold breath.
She only opened her mouth to say something, but it was as if she was looking at the wounds on her body. Her entire body was in pain.
Situ Manyao took a few deep breaths, trying to ease the pain in his body.
"I told you not to fight me easily, but you just didn't listen.”
Chu Yixuan glanced at the sword in front of her chest. There was no emotion in his eyes. Instead, the corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking smile.
"Don't blame me. You asked for all of this. If you didn't find someone to assassinate the Emperor, you could have gone home in one piece after attending the Emperor's birthday banquet today! Now…"
He didn't say anything else after he finished his sentence. He sneered and took a few steps back.
Situ Mantian's body lost its support and fell to the ground.
"Yixuan, what's going on? The princess is injured, you should quickly find a doctor for her!”
The Empress Dowager hurried to Chu Yixuan's side and looked him up and down.
"Fortunately, you're fine. You're a precious woman. What if you were stabbed?”
"Mother doesn't need to worry, I'm fine.”
Chu Yixuan was relieved to see that Chu Yijing was not injured. He looked at Situ Mantian.
"Mother, there is no need to care about this woman. Her thoughts are too heavy. Your son suspects that this assassin was arranged by her!”
Chu Yixuan's words were shocking. Everyone was stunned by his words and subconsciously looked at Situ Mantian.
Situ Mantiao lay on the ground and looked at Chu Yixuan coldly. She had no intention of explaining at all.
"How could Manyao…"
The empress dowager seemed to find it hard to believe and looked at Situ Manyao hesitantly.
"Mother, how could your son lie to mother?”
His brows were cold.
"Situ Manyao poisoned my wine just now, so I was at a disadvantage when I fought with the assassin!”
The empress dowager was stunned and looked at Situ Manyao in disbelief.
"She actually did such a thing!"
"Mother, don't worry. I will investigate this matter thoroughly. I won't malign a good person, and I won't let a bad person off!”
His tone was firm, and the empress dowager nodded.
"Then I'll leave this matter to you. I was shocked just now, so I just wanted to go back and rest early.”
"Mother, take care!"
Chu Yixuan bowed and sent the Empress Dowager away. Then, he glanced at Chu Yijing, who was surrounded by loyal officials.
"Emperor, are you alright?"
Chu Yijing's face was a little pale and his figure was in a sorry state. It seemed that he was frightened by what had just happened. He nodded with a dark face and turned his gaze to Situ Mantian.
"Situ Mantian, I ask you, is this really your doing?”
He walked to Situ Mantian's side and squatted down to look at her.
Situ Mantian hated herself for being so clear-headed. If she had fainted now, she wouldn't have felt the assent from her body, and she wouldn't have felt so hopeless.
"Your…Your Majesty, you've already agreed with Chu Yixuan's words, haven't you?”
She had only spoken a few words, but she felt breathless. The moment she saw Chu Yixuan, she felt anger rising in her heart, so she simply closed her eyes.
"Third brother said that wangfei poisoned the wine.”
Chu Yiyuan, who had been standing silently at the side, also stepped forward and looked at Situ Manyao, whose eyes were closed.
"Could it be when the two of them were kissing so hard just now?”
"That's right! I felt that something was wrong when the wine was poisoned. I looked at Situ Manya and realized that it was this bitch who poisoned me!”
The effects of the medicine had not completely dissipated, and Chu Yixuan had only recovered half of his strength.
"It seems that third brother and wangfei are not as loving as I thought.”
Chu Yiyuan looked at Situ Mantiao with a half-smile. His eyes were actually tinged with a hint of pleasure.
Chu Yixuan snorted coldly." Yiyuan, you just came back from the mountain. There are many things you don't know. It's not just this!"”
His tone and expression did not look good. Chu Yiyuan's face darkened and he did not say anything else.
"Manyao, I didn't expect you to do such a thing to the emperor. It's really a disgrace to our Situ Clan. You might as well confess earlier and beg the emperor to be lenient!”
Situ Feng never expected Situ Mantian to stab the Emperor. Whether she lived or died in the end had nothing to do with him, but what if she implicated the Situ Clan?
He looked at Situ Mantian hatefully. If he had known earlier, he would not have let her join the Xuan Prince Manor. She had innocently created trouble for him.
Situ Mantian recognized Situ Feng's voice and opened his eyes to laugh.
"Do you really think Situ Manyao is a member of the Situ Clan? I'm afraid you can't wait for me to marry out of the Prime Minister's Estate and have nothing to do with you, Situ Feng!”
Situ Mantian had always hated Situ Feng for acting like an old man in front of him. He had never spent much effort on Situ Mantian, so there was no need for him to play the role of a father now.
"You…you disdainful woman, how dare you say such words!”
Situ Feng couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he saw her talking about him in front of so many people, so he scolded Situ Mantian.
Situ Mantian didn't want to see this person who didn't look the same, so she decided to stop him!
"Put wangfei in jail first and allow me to investigate carefully again. If the mastermind behind this is really wangfei, zhen will naturally not let her off!”
As soon as he finished speaking, two imperial guards came up and roughly took Situ Mantian to the prison!
Chu Yijing placed his hands behind his back. He thought for a moment and finally said.
"Remember to find the imperial physician to apply medicine for her. If she dies before zhen interrogates her, then the gains will not make up for the losses!”
"Yes, sir!"
Situ Manyao felt the wounds on her body burn.
Perhaps, she really overestimated herself, and she might not be able to avenge her even before she died!# Cancel all reviews: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 55PM #
