A good show is about to begin.
Song Tingwan crossed his arms over his chest and posed to watch.
Concubine Xi was seen running towards the emperor with her skirt lifted up, looking hesitant and about to cry.
But as soon as he approached the emperor, he was kicked away.
"Come here, drag her away and banish her to the cold palace."
"Also, Xipin's father, brothers, and relatives, as long as they hold official positions, will all be dismissed and exiled to Fenzhou!"
Soon, several imperial guards came forward and dragged Concubine Xi away.
Xipin kept struggling, "Your Majesty, how can you be so cruel? My father and brother are innocent! I am also innocent, Your Majesty! Don't you love me the most?"
The more Xiao Qing listened, the more annoyed he became. His birthday party was in complete chaos!
It also made so many important officials in the court laugh at him!
Xiao Qing waved to the Yulin Guards, who immediately understood and knocked the still-shrieking Concubine Xi unconscious with a knife.
Before leaving, Xiao Qing stopped them again and said, "Princess Xi is possessed by an evil spirit. It is not appropriate for her to stay in the palace. She will be exiled with her parents."
"yes!"
???
Song Tingwan was a little confused.
Is the emperor so violent and direct?
Is that all?
She thought they would have to talk a little longer.
Boring.
The play ended just as it began.
The person who was most happy about Concubine Xi's fate, apart from the other concubines in the palace, was Miaoyi.
Miaoyi's face was full of gloating at this moment.
Now that's good, no one will go to the emperor to complain about her anymore.
Earlier, Concubine Rong said that Concubine Xi wanted to take her to her palace. That was simply wishful thinking...
Miaoyi thought angrily, I should have not thrown her bracelet!
After Xiao Qing finished dealing with Concubine Xi's affairs, he turned to look at Song Tingwan, his words still full of respect, "Goddess, are you satisfied with this handling?"
"Father!"
Before Song Tingwan could say anything, he was interrupted by a voice saying "Father".
Xiao Qing turned around, and everyone, whose legs were almost numb from kneeling, took the opportunity to look up.
Song Tingwan also looked in that direction.
Under the moonlight, Xiao Yunze walked over, followed by Baihu and Xuanwu.
Baihu and Xuanwu each carried a masked man in black.
Everyone's heart was in their throat.
Xiao Yunze walked closer and said, "Father, I just chased the assassins and captured two of them alive."
Upon hearing this, everyone became even more convinced that it was the goddess who drove the dragon to save them!
Xiao Qing's face was gloomy. "Old Nine, do you know who gave the order?"
In fact, he also had some guesses in his mind.
Anyone who could carry out an assassination in the palace must not be an ordinary person.
This question was exactly what Xiao Yunze wanted.
Xiao Yunze winked at Baihu, and Baihu threw the man in black to the ground and was about to kick him.
"No, no, no! I say!" The man in black had a bruised face. Seeing that the big foot was about to kick him, he waved his hand to stop it.
Baihu retracted his foot.
The man in black immediately knelt before the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, it's the Third Prince. He ordered us to guard the eaves and the dense forests, waiting for the goddess to summon the dragon, and then we will release the arrows."
"I didn't mean to assassinate the Emperor! Please spare my life, Your Majesty!"
Xiao Qinglong was furious and stepped on him, "You said you came here for the goddess?"
The man in black looked pious, "Yes! Yes! Your Majesty, we have no intention of murdering you!"
Xiao Qing's face darkened. "You said it was the Third Brother who sent you here?"
The man in black swallowed his saliva and said tremblingly: "Yes, it's the Third Prince..."
Everyone kneeling below gasped.
No one expected that today’s Emperor’s birthday banquet would have so many exciting programs!
Only Dong Xiu, who was usually calm and not easily emotional, had a cracked expression at this moment.
When he and his grandson Xiao Yuncheng discussed the assassination, he was clearly confident of victory.
When the goddess summoned the dragon, the archery team launched a rain of arrows from the sky and shot an arrow at the emperor.
Then find a reason to put the blame of the assassination on the goddess.
The emperor is suspicious by nature, and since the Ninth Prince has a close relationship with the goddess, he will definitely suspect the Ninth Prince.
If they continue to guide him at that time, the emperor will definitely develop a rift with the Ninth Prince, and think that the Ninth Prince is unwilling to be deposed as the crown prince, so he fabricated the absurd story about the goddess in order to seize power and usurp the throne.
The Ninth Prince will definitely be punished and will be one step further away from the throne.
As long as the threat of Xiao Yunze is gone, Dong Xiu will be able to let his grandson sit on the throne!
This is clearly a two-birds-with-one-stone strategy!
But what a coincidence!
The goddess actually summoned a dragon!
She ruined their careful plan!
Now, even his grandson has been exposed!
If the emperor gets angry, maybe even his Dong family will be implicated.
At that time he would have no choice but to rebel!
No......
Dong Xiu suddenly reacted.
The goddess is real, and the dragon is real too.
Then the goddess single-handedly repelled tens of thousands of Wei Kingdom cavalry...
Dong Xiu's pupils constricted and he lowered his head.
The man who had been arrogant for decades now had a hint of fear in his eyes...
On this side, Xiao Qing didn't say anything more. He just waved his hand and asked someone to take the assassin away.
He didn't want to lose face again in front of his ministers.
Xiao Qing turned to Song Tingwan and said, "Goddess, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you about what happened tonight."
"Thank you for the birthday gift, goddess. This is the best birthday gift I have received in the past few decades."
"I'm sorry to have frightened you tonight. I'll give you Qiwu Palace and let Lao Jiu take you back."
