Chapter 2054 Imperial Uncle, the World is Now in My Hands (43)
Shen Linyuan was willing to spend money, and his wedding was high-profile and extravagant.
Almost the entire household was mobilized to send wedding invitations to every family in the capital.
At first, when people from the Shen family came to distribute invitations, no one understood what was going on. It wasn't until evening that they realized what had happened.
The Regent is going to propose marriage to the male fox!
Otherwise, how could it have become known to the whole world?
Thus, the imperial city once again welcomed the long-awaited liveliness.
Everyone discussed that they would follow Shen Linyuan to see what kind of unparalleled romantic appearance this male fox had.
Can……
After following for a while, everyone realized something was wrong.
The direction the Regent is heading is clearly towards the palace!
Moreover, there was no sedan chair at the wedding; instead, two identical tall horses led the way.
Following them were the Taoist priests of the Dragon Guard Temple, and then a large number of well-trained and disciplined Imperial Guards.
Ordinary people dared not go any further than the palace gate, while the sons of officials became the main force, continuing to follow with wide eyes until…
I saw the king on the dragon throne, wearing a crown with tassels and a wedding robe.
They stopped in their tracks, staring in disbelief.
So, the one who made love with Shen Linyuan every night, leaving his neck covered in bite marks, was it His Majesty?
He has such audacity!
The wedding procession stopped in front of the Taiji Hall, and the orchestral music grew louder and louder, quickly bringing the petrified young noblemen back to their senses.
Just as they were about to move forward, they noticed a sharp arrow shooting out from behind the group, accompanied by a whistling sound, aimed straight at Si Jin's neck.
The worst part is that everyone is now immersed in the joy and shock of the wedding, and even Shen Linyuan didn't have time to stop the arrow.
The joyful music played hadn't stopped, but now it sounded as if it were celebrating the emperor's death in advance.
Dressed in coarse linen clothes, Duke Anguo, hiding behind others, was grinning from ear to ear.
He was very happy to kill Si Jin today.
He escaped from prison half a month ago and immediately gathered all his loyal subordinates to fight to the death, all for this day.
The eldest prince he had raised for many years, his life's work, and his throne were all ruined by Si Jin!
Now, he not only has nothing, but one of his legs has been crippled and left him half-crippled. He has no hope for the rest of his life.
But he's not someone to be trifled with. If he's not having an easy time, then Nangong Sijin can forget about it!
Isn't it just showing off? Isn't it just that you like to go around making him jealous?
He deliberately chose the day of the young emperor's big celebration to give him a big surprise!
Duke Anguo leaned on his cane, stood on tiptoe, and stared wide-eyed, hoping that Si Jin would be shot dead as soon as possible.
This morning, he had the Empress Dowager slip a sleeping potion into Si Jin's food. His reactions are already slowed, so he definitely won't be able to escape...
Whoosh—bang—
The poisoned sword quickly stopped beside Si Jin, but he dodged it by tilting his head slightly, and the sword pierced straight through the dragon throne behind him.
Throughout this entire ordeal, Si Jin didn't even blink.
After dodging the arrow, he slowly stood up, placed his right hand on the arrow shaft, and lifted it sharply.
He actually pulled out the poisoned arrow, which had penetrated three-tenths of an inch into the wall, along with fragments of the dragon throne, with a single hand.
With a turn of his head, he suddenly threw it outwards.
The hem of his robe fluttered, causing the arrow to travel back the way it came and pierce directly into the heart of Duke Anguo.
Such a long distance would require a bow weighing at least ten kilograms, but Si Jin... could do it with his hands?
How is that possible?
The arrow pierced his heart, and the potent poison it had been concocted quickly spread throughout his body.
When Duke Anguo collapsed, all was quiet. A moment later, someone shouted, "Duke Anguo is dead!!!"
"No, Duke Anguo died after escaping from prison—"
The emperor was assassinated, and the guilty officials died.
In an instant, the entire open space descended into chaos. Only Si Jin rushed out of the hall, mounted her horse, and slapped Shen Linyuan across the face.
"What are you standing there for? Did all the training I had for you go through for nothing?"
"The Duke of Anguo has plotted a rebellion; execute him!"
