Chapter 146 We are of the same origin, why are we so anxious to fight each other

What are all these?

The entire safe was filled with shells.

Jiang Yao is simply a genius. People who don’t know her would think she was brought from the modern era.

No wonder they don't allow easy access to this safe.

It's too dangerous.

The shells inside were not made as sturdily as modern ones.

In case sparks are produced during the collision.

The power of the entire safe is almost enough to flatten the queen's bedroom.

Jiang Jiu didn't know how the empress moved this dangerous thing here.

However, this thing is too heavy and Jiang Jiu really can't move it.

It seems that we have to think of another way.

Jiang Jiu saw pistols and pistol bullets and grabbed a handful of them.

The bullets in the pistol are fully replenished, so you don't have to worry about running out of bullets anymore.

She also took out another finished pistol, loaded it with bullets, and then loaded more. She locked the safe again before leaving.

Fortunately, no one was able to spot them since they left.

Going directly back to the kitchen, Jiang Jiu touched the pistols on her waist, still two of them. She suddenly thought that if she started killing people, no one in the palace would be able to stop her.

If there is no accident entering the palace, it is not an accident.

Jiang Jiu boiled the medicine and sent it to Zhao Zhuoxi once every two hours.

But they served him from dawn to dusk, and even after the meals were delivered, the emperor still played chess with Zhao Zhuoxi for the entire day.

This time even Zhao Zhuoxi himself felt something was wrong.

He stretched slowly, breathing heavily.

"Brother, I can't take it anymore. I am going to die. I have been sitting for a whole day and my health has not been good. I am going to die, I am going to die..."

Unexpectedly, the emperor said slowly: "It is I who should die, not you..."

Zhao Zhuoxi was stretching and almost sprained his waist when he heard the emperor's words.

He smiled bitterly: "Brother, you are so old that you are supposed to live a hundred years. Are you sick or not? Why do you want to die? You are really hypocritical."

Emperor Ning placed the chess pieces randomly on the chessboard.

The game wasn't even finished yet, but the whole thing was lost.

But he didn't mind at all: "I'm not being sentimental, I'm really going to die. I've been poisoned, and no one can cure it. I'm afraid I can't hold on for much longer."

Zhao Zhuoxi was originally half paralyzed on the couch, leaning haphazardly. After listening to Emperor Ning's words, he slowly sat up straight, with an incredible look on his face.

"Who poisoned you?"

Zhao Zhuoxi had thought about rebelling and forcing the emperor to abdicate, but he had never thought about poisoning his own brother.

Emperor Ning slowly put the black and white pieces back into their respective jars.

His face looked calm, as if he wasn't talking about his own business.

"Who else could it be except our own people?"

Yes, in the iron-clad palace, who else could be there except the omnipotent Empress?

Zhao Zhuoxi didn't expect that Queen Zhou actually wanted Emperor Ning.

"Why?"

Emperor Ning smiled bitterly and did not answer. Zhao Zhuoxi had already guessed what happened.

Let a man be emperor, he will never be as caring as your own son.

This man had many women in his harem, although he never had a son.

But what if? The Ninth Prince was also born very late back then.

He is extremely intelligent and everyone likes him. The late emperor also always said that he is the most like the late emperor.

In the end, even the throne was given to the ninth prince.

If Prime Minister Zhou had not started planning early on, the throne would not have been given to him.

Everything the Zhou family did was to control the entire Daning and push the Queen's son to the throne.

Even killing the emperor would be of no avail.

"Yes, if the crown prince ascends the throne, the prime minister Zhou will assist in government affairs, and the empress will rule from behind the curtain. The entire court will belong to the Zhou family. Brother, are you willing to accept this?"

Emperor Ning cleaned up the chessboard in front of him and walked down from the couch.

"Whether I am willing or not, I only have this one son..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Commander Yan and his imperial guards surrounded the entire bedroom.

"Brother Emperor, what are you going to do?" Zhao Zhuoxi sensed the danger and immediately stood up from the couch.

However, Yan Gang took out a long sword and pointed it directly at him.

Suddenly, the whole bedroom was on edge...

*******

At the same time, Queen Zhou was accompanying Old Lady Zhou to burn incense at the Guanyin Temple.

After burning incense, the two left the temple, but turned around and entered a Taoist temple.

A Taoist priest was invited out from the Taoist temple and followed them into the Zhou family.

After looking around, he gave the answer.

"The Feng Shui of your house is excellent. It faces south and north, which is the appearance of an emperor. However... the Feng Shui seems to have been destroyed now."

Mrs. Zhou was shocked: "What? It was broken? How was it broken?"

The Taoist priest counted with his fingers and said, "There is a person living in your house who shouldn't be here. This person has a strong evil spirit. The nobles in your house can't suppress him, so they all died one by one."

Huh? Old Mrs. Zhou gasped and asked hurriedly, "Can you figure out who it is?"

The Taoist priest calculated again and again, and shook his head helplessly: "I can't figure it out. This person's evil spirit can't be suppressed by anyone. Only someone with more evil spirit than him can suppress him."

Queen Zhou immediately gave the order to the steward of the prime minister's residence.

"Go check for me how many servants have been bought into the palace in the past year. Sell them all."

Since someone with evil spirit entered her house, she should just chase him out.

Then, the Taoist priest performed some rituals.

Zhou Hou was waiting in the house. For some reason, his heart was beating so fast that even his eyelids were twitching.

******

The emperor's chamber was surrounded by the imperial guards.

However, there was only one person they wanted to kill, Zhao Zhuoxi.

Zhao Zhuoxi was completely stunned.

"Why? We are going to kill each other..."

Emperor Ning slowly retreated out of the bedroom.

"It's not that I want brothers to kill each other, it's that the Queen is worried about you. Once our son becomes the emperor, you... will be the biggest threat to him."

So that's how it is. Zhao Zhuoxi laughed bitterly.

"My dear brother, you are really infatuated. If you lose a son, you can have another one, but if you lose a brother, there will be no one to help you."

Emperor Ning did not think so.

There is only one woman I love and one son.

He has quite a few brothers and sisters who share the same blood as him.

Jiang Jiu had been making medicine for Zhao Zhuoxi on time, but suddenly, she felt something was wrong. She didn't know when, but several guards came into the kitchen.

"What are you going to do?" Nishang pulled out the hairpin on her head, which turned into a sharp dagger.

Jiang Jiu and Nishang also stood back to back, facing the ill-intentioned imperial guards. They both realized at the same time that Zhao Zhuoxi in the palace might be in greater danger.

"Quick victory and quick decision to save the prince." Nichang made a quick judgment.

Jiang Jiu just got the bullet and was thinking about showing off his skills, but unexpectedly the opportunity came.

"good."

"Bang, bang, bang..."

The sound was like fireworks.

Not only that, the Guards were also shocked and had no time to react before the man was killed.

Nichang was also shocked: "You, you..."

Jiang Jiu clenched his pistol tightly: "Don't ask too many questions, saving the prince is the most important thing."
