It was only at this moment that Shi Jian realized how ignorant and reckless his decision was. As Qin Dong said, she didn't understand Qin Dong's strength at all, let alone how terrifying he was. She recklessly led thousands of guards to ambush Qin Dong. She naively thought that she could kill Qin Dong with these thousands of troops. At this time, it seemed a bit ridiculous.
regret! Shi Jian never thought he would regret it like this. Not only did her recklessness put her in a desperate situation, she also made thousands of guards have to face life and death with her.
This round of sharp arrow attacks included tens of thousands of them. Even she couldn't avoid them, let alone those guards. It would be strange if thousands of guards were not completely wiped out by this wave of sharp arrows.
And the Queen. After Qin Dong killed himself and killed thousands of guards, how would he deal with the Queen? This made Shi Jian dare not even think about it. Tears of regret burst out of his eyes wantonly. Shi Jian wished so much that this had never happened. [
Shi Jian closed her eyes, her face hurt from the wind. She knew that this was the wind caused by the arrow moving at high speed. Shi Jian's heart trembled. Now she could do nothing but wait quietly for the sickle of death to harvest her life.
However, just when Shi Jian closed his eyes and waited for death, the expected pain did not arrive, but there were bursts of crackling sounds in the sky, like firecrackers.
In the moment of surprise, he subconsciously opened his eyes. When he opened them, his heart almost jumped out of his throat on the spot. I saw a sharp arrow flying in the sky, exploding like a time bomb, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a ball of powder, even the arrows made of steel were no exception.
The exploded powder fell down with the wind, like a heavy rain, scattering the sword and thousands of guards all over their heads and bodies.
"Is this something a human can do?" Looking at the powder that was still flying, Shi Jian was completely stunned and kept murmuring.
"Hahaha... I am in a good mood today and don't want to go on a killing spree. You are lucky!" Qin Dong's wild laughter came from the air, awakening Shi Jian from his dementia.
"Are you really so kind that you won't kill us?" Qin Dongshi is evil. Sometimes he is so abominable that people want to eat his flesh alive, but sometimes he is merciful and unpredictable.
"I always tell the truth! But you girl, you are so unruly. If you don't know how to restrain yourself next time, I won't be polite!"
"Then... what should our prince do?"
"If you are really worried about the little prince, let him be in a coma. Let him wake up at this time, but it will harm him! Now that I have said this, you can take care of yourself!" After that, Qin Dong's body The form has disappeared without a trace.
"Queen, I've frightened you." Shi Jian shook his head helplessly, hurried back to the queen, and said with a guilty look on his face.
Fortunately, Qin Dong was merciful and didn't do anything cruel. Otherwise, Shi Jian might not be able to forgive himself even if he dies.
The queen shook her head bitterly and said, "I'm fine, I just let him go..."
"Queen, don't worry! Even if Shi Jian exerts all his strength and fights for his life, he will definitely save His Highness the Crown Prince." Shi Jian said this, but in his heart he was not sure at all.
A lot of careful planning, but nothing. On the way back to the palace, the queen and the swordsman were a little listless and dejected.
"Shi Jian, I want to go see Fang'er." Returning to the palace, the queen did not return to her own palace and said to Shi Jian.
Shi Jian nodded and helped the queen to the palace.
At this time, a total of about ten imperial doctors were arguing around the little prince Su Fang. The content of the quarrel was naturally the little prince's condition. More than a dozen imperial doctors actually mentioned more than a dozen kinds of diseases, each with his own reasons, and it was a big fuss.
After listening for a while, the queen felt dizzy and waved her hand to have the swordsman drive all the dozen imperial doctors out. [
The queen only has one son, the young prince, who is very precious to him on weekdays, and it goes without saying at this time. Sitting in front of the little prince's bed, holding the little prince's hand, the queen's tears fell straight down.
Shi Jian shed tears for a while and advised the queen, "Queen, your Royal Highness is blessed with great fortune and will be fine. Don't be too sad, just take good care of your body."
The Queen sighed sadly and said in a very serious tone, "I really don't understand what the royal family of the Great Chu State has done wrong to suffer such bad luck. First, His Majesty the Emperor's life and death were unknown, and now Fang'er has become like this. Is it possible? , God, are we really going to survive without my Su family?"
"No! His Majesty the Emperor is diligent and caring for the people. He is a wise king. God will only protect you and will never harm you." Shi Jian hurriedly comforted the queen.
The queen sighed heavily and was about to speak when a maid who was always around her rushed in panting and with a look of horror on her face.
Seeing this, Shi Jian hurriedly pulled her back and said reproachfully, "Qing'er, what made you so panicked? If you bumped into the Queen, what crime should you be responsible for?"
The maid named Qing'er hurriedly knelt down to the queen and said repeatedly, "This slave is guilty, please punish me!"
The queen waved her hand and said, "Qing'er, you are in such a hurry, what happened?"
Qing'er hurriedly reported: "Queen, something bad has happened. King Rongqing has killed the second prince!"
"What did you say!?" Qing'er's words made the Queen and Shi Jian change their colors at the same time.
The second prince is about the same age as the prince Su Fang, and was born to a concubine of Emperor Su Yang of the Great Chu State. This second prince has a simple and honest character, and is deeply loved by Su Yang and the Queen.
"Empress, please think of a way to save Concubine De. When she heard that the second prince had been murdered, Concubine De was filled with grief and indignation. She went to King Rongqing to ask for justice. However, she was punished by King Rongqing with twenty sticks and was thrown into the cold palace. .”
Qing'er's last words made the Queen even more shocked and angry, and shouted, "Is King Rongqing crazy? Does he dare to beat and arrest His Majesty's concubine?"
"Queen, King Rongqing is clearly plotting rebellion. If you give the order, I will arrest him immediately!" Shi Jian said angrily.
The queen was about to nod when she suddenly thought of something and shook her head, "No!"
"Why?" Shi Jian asked puzzledly.
The empress frowned and said, "Since King Rongqing is planning to rebel, he must be fully prepared. If you come to arrest someone at this time, you are just throwing yourself into a trap!"
Shi Jian gritted his teeth, turned to look at Qing'er, and asked, "Qing'er, do you know what crime King Rongqing used to kill the second prince?"
Qing'er replied, "I heard from Empress Dowager De's maid that the second prince seemed to have killed someone outside the palace. King Rongqing thought that the prince had violated the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people, and executed the second prince on the spot!"
