Views:

Not to be missed. Moreover, this kid's sudden appearance completely disrupted his plan, and the delay here is too long, he must make a quick decision, and stop entangled with him!

The guards didn't hesitate any longer, shouting and charging forward with swords in hand.

Zhou Shizhi sneered slightly, he was as steady as a bell, motionless, and the people he brought were all on alert, also motionless, as if they were certain of something.

Sure enough, the guards hadn't rushed over yet, only to hear the Marquis Hou Shizi scream, his body swayed, and he fell to the ground, screaming and rolling on the ground with his stomach hurting.

"Xian'er, Xian'er! What's the matter with you, what's the matter!" Marquis Wu Gong was shocked, and hurriedly knelt down to help him.

"Father, father..." Marquis Hou Shizi was panting, and was about to speak when the pain hit him, so he could only scream. His face was pale, with bead-sized beads of sweat rolling down his forehead, his eyes were wide open, and his dark purple lips were biting tightly. He looked terrifying.

"What did you do to my son!" Marquis Hou glared at Zhou Shizhi fiercely and asked bitterly.

Zhou Shizhi sneered, and said slowly: "You will know soon."

"What did you say?" Marquis Wu Gong was startled, suddenly, his face turned pale, and he saw that the palm of his hand was turning black little by little, at the same time, severe pain struck, distorting his facial features.

"You, you..." Wu Gonghou's voice trembled, and his body trembled uncontrollably.

Zhou Shizhi said slowly: "Your son just took Duanchang powder, and his clothes were just painted on. Hou Ye's love son eagerly supported him, and the things on his clothes naturally went to Hou Ye. on the body."

The faces of Marquis Wu Gong and all the guards all changed drastically, and all the guards couldn't help but look at Marquis Wu Gong one after another, only to see that his hands were pitch-black and his face gradually turned black, his facial features were distorted, he was panting, his eyes Also a little lax!

The guards panicked immediately, and they followed him, thinking about getting promoted and getting rich, but at this moment, he was clearly unreliable!

Once he died, would he still have a way to live

Everyone became confused like headless chickens, standing there at a loss.

Marquis Wu Gong only felt that breathing became more and more uncomfortable, as if a hand was tightly strangling his throat, and every breath of air seemed so laborious. There was pain and numbness in his arm, and if he continued like this, he believed that he would soon become numb to the point of losing consciousness and becoming stiff.

He glared at Zhou Shizhi, laughed miserably, and panted, "I never thought that the old man would capsize in the gutter and fall into the hands of a nobody like you! The old man refuses to accept it, really refuses to accept it!"

Zhou Shizhi just sneered and didn't speak.

It doesn't matter whether he accepts it or not, the important thing is that he refuses to accept it!

"W-Who are you? Why—did you do this? How did you know!" Marquis Wu Gong stared at him with difficulty: "Say, tell! Otherwise, I won't die!"

Zhou Shizhi sneered and said: "I will say it, if I don't say it, I will regret it for the rest of my life! Do you still remember your adopted son? He has recovered his memory and he is mine. And I,"

Zhou Shizhi's gaze turned cold in vain, and boundless hatred burst out. He stared at Wu Gonghou and said coldly: "Do you still remember the king of the mountain? That is my father! The hatred of destroying the family is irreconcilable!"

"The backer king!"

Countless people gasped and exclaimed in low voices. Emperor Xiangqing, the empress, the queen mother, the crown prince, and the princes all turned pale, looking at Zhou Shizhi as if they had seen a ghost!

There were too many variables tonight, and even Emperor Xiangqing, who was used to seeing strong winds and waves, felt dizzy.

"You, you are the Empress of the Mountain King!" Marquis Wu Gong also changed color, and stared blankly at Zhou Shizhi for a while. It has the shadow of a backer king.

Backer King, he hasn't thought of this person for many years. Originally thought that with the destruction of the backer's palace, everything had been reduced to the dust of history, and then slowly, bit by bit, turned into ashes. Unexpectedly, there are still descendants of him alive in the world!

Is this... retribution!

Marquis Wu Gong was shocked and smiled bitterly, but he was unwilling to admit defeat.

He looked up to the sky and laughed, and said with a sneer: "So you are the son of the backer king! You are looking for the wrong person to take revenge on me! Back then, it was the emperor who ordered to raid the backer's mansion and kill all the backer king's family! This is the culprit." The culprit!"

Wu Gonghou pointed at Emperor Xiangqing, and said with a sneer: "Now you are helping the enemy to plot against me, hehe, I am afraid that your father, queen, mother and concubine will not rest in peace under the nine springs!"

The empress dowager, empress and the others felt terrified in their hearts, and all of them turned pale, crying secretly. The little hope that had been born was dimmed.

This is really a wolf before a tiger.

Zhou Shizhi was unmoved, and said coldly: "You don't have to provoke dissension. I have already checked very clearly. It is true that the imperial decree was issued by the emperor, but the emperor was deceived and deceived by you, my father, I was wrongly framed by you! The culprit is still you!"

Emperor Xiangqing's eyes became hot when he heard these words, and his heart was a little sour, and the way he looked at Zhou Shizhi immediately became different.

At other times, Zhou Shizhi's words were nothing, but under the current situation, it is rare for him to be so clear-headed, understand right and wrong, and believe in himself, it is really rare!

Regardless of whether the backer king was really wronged or not, just based on Zhou Shizhi's words at the moment, he believed that he was really wronged.

"So that's how it is!" Emperor Xiangqing sighed and nodded, staring at Marquis Wu Gong and said coldly: "I have always thought that something was strange, but it's a pity that I believed you too much at that time! So much so that I misbelieved in slander, You have harmed the backing mountain king's family! Marquis Wu Gong, you deserve death!"

The Marquis of Wu Gong laughed wildly, and all of them laughed sarcastically: "The emperor is really clean! The evidence is convincing, so why not be wronged? The surname is Zhou, your father deserves what he deserves! Haha, you think you will believe you now that you have saved the emperor!" Don’t dream! If you cut the weeds and don’t get rid of the roots, it’s the emperor who will regret it in the future! How can there be future troubles for rebellion? Zhou, after today, after this moment, haha, you think the emperor will still say Is that what he said? He was just trying to stabilize you temporarily!"

"You deserve what you deserve?" Zhou Shizhi said coldly, "You deserve what you deserve! At this moment, not only do you not know how to repent, you are still wronging my father! Hmph, you don't need to provoke discord, since I dare to say the word 'wrong' , of course there is evidence, but you don't need to worry about it!"

Marquis Wu Gong was taken aback, a little uncertain about Zhou Shizhi's thoughts. A burst of intense pain interrupted his thoughts, he bit his lip and groaned, his eyes went dark, and his world spun.

I'm afraid time is running out!

"It's a big tone, but it's just deceiving yourself and others!" Wu Gonghou sneered, but his eyes moved slowly, fixed on Emperor Xiangqing.

Even if he was going to die, he would have to pull a back! To be buried with the empress, even death is worth it!

Marquis Wu Gong's eyes showed a fierce look, and with a roar, he drew out his sword fiercely and rushed towards Emperor Xiangqing and the empress.

Zhou Shizhi was shocked, and shouted "Help!" He flew up and pushed Emperor Xiangqing and the Empress along with their escorts to the side. Marquis Wu Gong's sword barely passed under his ribs, and at the same time, the sharp blade in his hand pierced Marquis Wu Gong's chest.

Marquis Wugong snorted twice, staring straight at Zhou Shizhi with his round eyes wide open, purple-black blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, his body went limp, and he fell to the ground dead.

"Father!, Father!"

"Lord Hou!"

The scene was chaotic again.

Especially those guards brought by Marquis Marquis stood there in a daze at a loss.

The master is dead, so what should they do.

The two leaders looked at each other, and suddenly there was a fierce look in their eyes: the left and right are dead, and they can't die in vain, doing business at a loss!

"Listen to me!" Zhou Shizhi staggered to his feet and shouted sharply, "Marquis Wu Gong deserves his crime for rebelling against you! If any of you are deceived and coerced by him, you should arrest them immediately and ask the emperor for forgiveness!"

The guards were taken aback for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Emperor Xiangqing.

At this moment, Emperor Xiangqing had just been freed. Seeing this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said loudly: "That's right! Since he was deceived and coerced by the Marquis of Martial Arts, he will not be guilty of death. Why don't you hurry up and plead guilty!"

All the guards were desperate and desperate to die before they thought about dying, but now that they saw the hope of life, who would want to die? They put down their weapons one after another, knelt down and kowtowed to plead guilty.

Martial Arts Hou Shizi was convulsed with pain, rolled on the ground speechless, and could only watch helplessly as everyone turned against him.

He was anxious and angry, a burst of anger and blood rushed to his heart, and he fainted immediately.

As for the youngest son of Marquis Wugong, seeing that his life was finally saved at this moment, he finally let go of his heart for the time being. As for the father who fell to the ground and died tragically, although he felt a little sad when he saw it, it was not so sad anymore. He can disregard his own life, what kind of father is he

Emperor Xiangqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that the situation tonight had finally been completely reversed!

Once the chief culprit is punished, the rest are just mobs, even if they can't be cleaned up for a while, they won't be able to turn up any big storms!

He treated the guards who had turned against him with kindness and admonishment, and calmed them down. He couldn't help but glanced at Zhou Shizhi, secretly praising him in his heart.

"Father! My son came late to save you, please forgive me!" There was chaos here, and suddenly the fourth prince Zhou Keli led a group of imperial guards hurried over, and knelt down to meet him.

Concubine Sun Guifei, the mother of the fourth prince, contracted a cold two days ago, so she was unable to attend the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner tonight.

The fourth prince originally wanted to come to participate. He knew that his father had always been dissatisfied with the prince, and he was the one who doted on him more.

Although my mother dotes on the imperial harem, it is a pity that the queen is the best spouse who has shared the hardships with the father, and has always been virtuous and generous, and has won the respect, love and trust of the father. The prince relied on the queen's blessing to be forgiven by his father time and time again.
