The accident happened unexpectedly, and what was even more terrifying was that the emperor and the prince were stabbed and seriously injured at the same time. Under the premise that the middle palace was vacant, there was no one in the palace who could be in charge at this time!
Qi Yang looked at his father and brother who had been burned all black, and was so grief-stricken for a while that he didn't even dare to touch them.
It was Zhang Jian who dared to step forward and put his hand under the emperor's nose to test it out. He felt that he was still breathing, and then he said with a sigh of relief: "Your Majesty is still breathing, go and ask the imperial doctor." Trying the prince's breath, although it was much weaker than the emperor's, he was still not out of breath, so he hurriedly continued: "His Royal Highness is still breathing, hurry up and send your majesty and his highness back to the palace!"
Hearing that the emperor and the prince were still alive, the surrounding Yulin obviously relaxed a lot. They were at a loss at first, but now that they heard Zhang Jian's orders, they hurriedly followed suit.
The Yulins hurried to find Bu Nian to carry the two back to the palace, Qi Yang subconsciously wanted to follow, but was stopped by Lu Qipei: "Your Highness, wait a moment. Now that Your Majesty and the Prince are assassinated, there is no one in charge of the palace, and no assassins. search..."
Coincidentally, almost as soon as Lu Qipei's words fell, a black shadow suddenly descended from the sky and stabbed the emperor and prince who were seriously injured in the carriage. When everyone was flustered and their precautions were relaxed, they didn't expect that there would be people stabbing after the explosion. He didn't react for a while, and he almost watched as the knife in the assassin's hand slashed towards the emperor.
It was still Zhang Jian, who was already close to the emperor, but at this moment he almost jumped on the emperor without thinking.
The long knife pierced into the flesh and the blood bloomed. The assassin's knife was so powerful that it almost split Zhang Jian in half, who was standing in front of the emperor! Zhang Jian immediately spit out a mouthful of blood and completely fell on the emperor, becoming the first person to die in the palace tonight.
And Zhang Jian's death obviously bought enough time for Yulin to recover, and the assassin was surrounded by Yulin as soon as he missed a hit.
Lu Qipei and Qi Yang both looked ugly because of this change, especially Lu Qipei, she was inexplicably flustered. However, she didn't have time to think about protecting Qi Yang at the moment, so she asked for a long knife from Yu Lin beside her, so she protected Qi Yang and approached Bu Nian.
The emperor and the prince were severely burned, and Zhang Jian's body would only hurt more if the emperor's body was pressed against him. Even if the emperor was seriously injured and comatose, he was suppressed subconsciously at this moment, but the sound he made was so low that no one else could hear it. It was Qi Yang who noticed it after approaching, and hurriedly moved Zhang Jian's body away with Lu Qipei, which made the emperor feel a little better.
Tonight's assassination was obviously extraordinary, not to mention the fact that he was able to hide in the dragon lantern after layers of inspection, even the desperate assassin in front of him was not a fool. Under the siege of dozens of feather forests, he persisted for a long time without falling behind.
Lu Qipei's heart was beating wildly, but he grabbed Qi Yang and warned: "Your Highness, there is no one in charge of the palace now, I am afraid that there will be another opportunity for others to take advantage of. Please also ask Your Highness to order to close all palace gates, so that Yulin can strengthen patrols and defenses. Make it impossible to connect all parts of the harem. Besides, Your Majesty is in critical condition now, so I'm afraid I can't hide it, so I should ask the important ministers and clan to enter the palace as soon as possible."
After saying this, she thought for a while, and then added: "There is also the East Palace. If your Highness has someone you can trust in Yulin, he will be sent to guard the East Palace. At this time, the eldest grandson can't have another accident!"
When Qi Yang heard her exhortation, his flustered heart gradually calmed down, and he hurriedly searched for someone to give instructions.
The assassin in front of him has not yet been captured, but there is no doubt that under the premise that both the emperor and the prince are seriously injured and cannot be managed, and there is no queen in the middle palace, the words of Her Royal Highness the princess still work. In particular, Qi Yang herself is not a powerless little princess. She passed the prince and the concubine. In fact, she has her own power in the court, and there are even people in Yulin who obey her.
When this person was confused, the Yulin commander who was on duty tonight still obeyed Qi Yang's orders. Things went on in an orderly manner, but the priority was not even to capture the assassin, but to send the emperor and the prince back to the palace for treatment.
Lu Qipei also knew that the injuries of the emperor and the prince could not be delayed. Seeing that Qi Yang had done almost everything he ordered, he said to her: "His Royal Highness, you will send your majesty and the prince back to the palace first, and I will stay here to take care of the aftermath. "
Qi Yang gave her a deep look, nodded and said, "Then leave this place to the concubine."
The two looked at each other, and Qi Yang immediately led people to the nearest palace with a chariot. At the same time, to prevent accidents, he sent a group of people to the Tai Hospital to pick up people. And Lu Qipei stayed where he was, staring at everyone to capture the assassin, while drawing attention to the movement outside the palace.
A quarter of an hour later, the assassin was slaughtered, but for some reason, Lu Qipei always felt that the eyes that the man looked at him when he fell had no meaning.
When King Wei and others received the news of entering the palace, not to mention that the dust had settled, at least the restlessness in the palace had subsided.
Lu Qipei didn't want to go too far, guarding the assassins, and after briefly dealing with the disaster outside the palace gate, he ran to find Qiyang, and guarded the severely injured emperor and prince with her.
In fact, the emperor who lit the lamp was slightly injured, because the prince was alert, and immediately jumped on it when he noticed something was wrong. The prince was pure filial piety, protecting his father under his body, but his back was blown into a bloody mess. Then there was a fire in Chaoyang Building. Although the Yulin and the others were quick to rescue him, the prince had only his last breath left.
When the doctor who made the diagnosis came out, he reported to Qi Yang with trepidation: "His Royal Highness is seriously injured, please forgive me, I can do nothing..."
After Qi Yang listened, the blood on his face quickly faded, his body swayed slightly and he could barely stand.
Lu Qipei supported her, held her hand tightly, and asked the imperial doctor for her, "What about your majesty? Is your majesty okay?"
Tonight, the emperor and the prince had an accident at the same time, and the imperial doctor was also trembling, and he didn't even dare to lift his head when he heard the question: "Back to the princess' concubine, Your Majesty, His Majesty's injury is lighter than His Royal Highness. However, His Majesty is old, and now there are many burns on his body. I'm afraid, I'm afraid..."
Needless to say, I know that I am afraid that there will be no good words to follow.
Qi Yang's heart became colder, he closed his eyes and endured it for a long time before he lost his temper again, but the hand he held Lu Qipei tightened and squeezed, so much that Lu Qipei's hand bone ached. Fortunately, she held back, and finally said in a hoarse voice: "In any case, the father and brother of this palace are still alive, as long as they still have a breath, the people in the hospital will take good care!"
Her tone was low and suppressed, and the imperial doctor glanced up and glanced at him, and was immediately deterred by the cold edge in Qi Yang's eyes. The imperial doctor bowed his head, now it should be, and went back in a hurry to continue to deal with the injuries for the emperor and the prince.
In the East Palace, the eldest grandson learned of the accident of Chaoyang Tower, and he hurried over without caring whether there was any danger in the palace.
In another quarter of an hour in the evening, King Wei and several princesses also arrived. Then there were several seniors with high prestige in the clan, and then the prime minister led a few important ministers to come one after another. At the same time, the change of Chaoyang Tower spread rapidly throughout the capital at an irresistible speed.
As soon as King Wei came, he made a fuss and made a fuss. After knowing the injury of the emperor and the prince, it became quiet. Qi Yang didn't have time to pay attention to him, but Lu Qipei paid attention to King Wei a few times, and it was not difficult to see the sudden ambition in his eyes.
This is also inevitable. Right now, the emperor and the prince have been stabbed and seriously injured, and they are about to die. Among the princes, he is the only one who survives, and the grandsons are still young... Guolai Changjun, in such a situation, the king of Wei, who is in his prime, looks better than Xiaomao. The grandson of the head is reliable. King Wei almost felt that a huge pie was hit directly on the forehead!
If it weren't for the fact that there were still important officials from the imperial clan watching, King Wei would probably have laughed three times with joy.
But at the moment, no one pays attention to him. After all, there are very few people who can appear in the palace at this time, except for King Wei, who can't understand clearly. Although everyone's mind was a little impetuous, at this moment they were all on the emperor and the prince who were assassinated.
Everyone stayed in the outer hall waiting for the news of the imperial doctor. This was the middle of the night, and the one who woke up first was the more seriously injured prince.
The eldest grandson ran in first, followed by Qi Yang and Lu Qipei, followed by the prime minister and several ministers, and finally, regardless of their relationship with the prince, several princes and daughters also followed.
The prince's description at the moment is very miserable. Not to mention other things, only his entire back was scorched and wounded, and now he can only lie down and expose the wound. The scorched black wound was terrifying, and there were occasional strands of blood dripping down, which made the scalp feel numb just by looking at it. A few princesses stood at the back and glanced at it vaguely, and they hurriedly turned their heads away and did not dare to look again.
The eldest grandson was already crying in front of the prince's bed, and his cry caused the weak prince to open his eyes. Seeing his son, his eyes softened a little, and then he tilted his head slightly, and saw Qi Yang with red eyes beside him.
"Imperial sister..." The prince looked at Qi Yang and called weakly.
When Qi Yang heard it, he hurriedly took two and a half steps forward and knelt down in front of the bed, and replied, "I'm here. I'll listen to what the emperor has to say."
The prince was seriously injured, and the imperial doctor had previously asserted that there was nothing he could do, and most of the waking up at this moment was just a return to light. He still has obsessions in his heart, but he is so weak that he can't even say a few words: "Imperial sister, very good, I will, I will entrust Aqi to you."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he was entrusting him. As for not entrusting him to the emperor, he also knew that the previous explosion increased the fire, and the emperor's situation would not be much better. Apart from the emperor, the crown prince was afraid of Lu Qipei, but he trusted Qi Yang the most.
Qi Yang couldn't bear it any longer when she heard the words, and the tears fell again. She wiped away her tears and replied, "I listen to the emperor's brother. Don't worry, the emperor's brother, how you treated me in the first place, and how I will treat Aqi in the future, will definitely I will not live up to your promise!"
The prince's expression relaxed when he heard the words, and the breath he was holding was relieved for the most part, and his face also turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Qi Yang was very anxious when he saw it, and the eldest grandson couldn't help crying. The crown prince finally reached out and touched his son's head, and said softly to him: "Aqi, at the beginning, what I said to you for my father, you must remember those words."
The prince has been close to the eldest grandson in the past few months, and has really taught him a lot, and he has said countless things. The eldest grandson was in a mess at the moment, and he didn't know which sentence he was referring to, but he would keep all his father's teachings in his heart, so he nodded hurriedly: "Father, don't worry, your teachings are all remembered!"
With this promise, the prince did not know if he was relieved. After a long sigh, he died suddenly.
