Chapter 29 Other Uses

After Concubine Xi finished speaking, everyone's jaws dropped in shock.

Bai Jiuxiao lowered his eyes and smiled lowly.

He turned his head and asked Xiang Ning Shiqian: "You don't dare to write like this in the playbooks of Liyuan, do you?"

So outrageous that she wouldn't even dream of doing it.

Ning Shiqian narrowed his eyes slightly and remained silent.

Concubine Xi panted again: "What the Ninth Prince means is that I framed it? How dare I frame such a thing? Besides, I am poisoned in my body, and I am already a dying person. I just want to live I want an antidote and frame you, what good will it do me?"

"If I had known that the Ninth Prince was so ruthless, I would not let this palace go. Half a month ago, this palace should...should have exposed this matter to the emperor. Why did it end up like this?"

Concubine Xi closed her eyes, with a heartbroken and regretful look.

Concubine Xi's words were basically believed by everyone present.

After all, it has a nose and an eye.

Zhu Jin is even more convinced, he has always felt that Bai Jiuxiao is not a good person.

After thinking about it, he spoke again at the right time.

"Half a month ago, wasn't that just before the Ninth Prince went to Yunlai? The emperor asked the Ninth Prince to bring a bracelet to Concubine Xi in Yunlai, and the Ninth Prince just seized the opportunity."

Bai Jiuxiao snorted softly: "Teacher Zhu doesn't need to fan the flames, you are not the only one who has brains. Does the emperor know if this king has money? This king's money can't be spent at all, and you still need to mint counterfeit coins?"

"That's not necessarily the case, maybe it's used for other purposes." Zhu Jin stopped short.

The officials were horrified.

They are all members of the imperial court, so they are all knowledgeable about the past and the present.

Throughout the dynasties, almost all the casting of counterfeit coins was related to treason, or in other words, only those who wanted to be emperors would mint counterfeit coins.

Because recruiting soldiers and buying horses requires a lot of money, and cultivating influence requires a lot of money.

Bai Jiuxiao has read all the history books, how could he not understand what Zhu Jin said?
But if she didn't do it, she didn't do it, so she had no fear and a frank face.

Emperor Wen's face was ugly.

Everyone thought he would attack Bai Jiuxiao.

not at all.

He said nothing, his lips pursed into a straight line.

Zhu Jin felt that he might be afraid of Bai Jiuxiao, after all, he usually had a submissive face under Bai Jiuxiao's lust/power.

So, someone has to push it.

So, he opened his mouth again: "Actually, it is easy to verify this matter. Since the concubine Xi has made it so clear, on the mountain where Changle Temple in the southern suburbs of the capital is located, under the huge rock on the north side of the mountain The cave, the emperor immediately sent someone to investigate it, won't we be able to see the outcome?"

All the officials nodded in agreement.

"Correct!"

"Correct!"

"Yes, send someone there quickly, it's too late to transfer to the other party now."

Emperor Wen frowned and looked at Concubine Xi who was taking her last breath, then glanced at Bai Jiuxiao, and ordered Wanji and Qianli, the guards with swords in front of the imperial court.

"Both of you, quickly bring someone to investigate!"

"Yes!" The two took the order and left.

Concubine Xi clutched Emperor Wen's sleeves: "Your Majesty, the ministers and concubines may not be able to wait for them to come back."

In the end, she turned her eyes to Bai Jiuxiao with difficulty.

"Lord Jiujiu, you don't want me to die before the truth comes to light, do you? Can you give me the antidote so that I can live and confront you?"

"This king didn't inflict the poison, how can I get the antidote?" Bai Jiuxiao said coldly.

After speaking, Bai Jiuxiao turned around, ready to go back to his seat and wait for the result.

She had just taken two steps away when Concubine Xi in Emperor Wen's arms suddenly stood up, rushed towards her like crazy, and yelled, "If you don't give me the antidote, we will die together!"

It happened so suddenly that everyone didn't expect it, and even Emperor Wen didn't react.

I saw the green figure heading straight towards Bai Jiuxiao like an arrow from the string, and what made everyone even more horrified was that the dagger in the figure's hand was glaring coldly in the sun.

Emperor Wen shouted: "Concubine Xi!"

Someone also exclaimed: "Nine Princes!"

Bai Jiuxiao turned around.

"My lord, be careful!" Lu Chengxi yelled in the distance, and rushed over to protect Bai Jiuxiao from danger.

In the blink of an eye, someone was faster than Lu Chengxi.

That is Ning Shiqian who is closest to Bai Jiuxiao.

He rushed towards Bai Jiuxiao and stood in front of her.

The moment his eyes met Bai Jiuxiao's, Ning Shiqian found that at such a dangerous moment, Bai Jiuxiao's face was as calm as ever.

As soon as the dagger behind him pierced his back, Bai Jiuxiao's eyes turned cold, and he suddenly reached out to wrap his arms around his waist, and directly took him to fly back a distance quickly.

At the same time as he landed, Bai Jiuxiao quickly slashed a palm with his other hand, hitting Concubine Xi directly.

Concubine Xi let out a muffled snort, her body was like a broken leaf, flying far away, falling to the ground, unable to get up again.

"Overestimate yourself!" Bai Jiuxiao withdrew his palm, his clothes and hair flying.

Everyone present seemed to have watched a thrilling scene, but the result was expected.

The reason why it is expected is that everyone is well aware of Bai Jiuxiao's martial arts and reflexes. In Da Zhao, if he is called the second, no one dares to be the first.

How many masters have tried to assassinate and sneak attack but failed.

What's more, Concubine Xi, a weak woman with no martial arts, is also a person who is dying of poisoning, and who screamed before rushing over?
It's just like looking for death!
In everyone's eyes, the good-looking opera singer in the pear garden was superfluous. Even if he didn't rush over, Bai Jiuxiao would definitely be unscathed.

However, this man can be regarded as courage and spirit commendable.

On the other side, Concubine Xi opened her mouth, a mouthful of blood spewed out, she fell into a pool of blood and convulsed.

"Concubine Xi!" Emperor Wen quickly walked over and hugged her in his arms.

"Are you okay?" Bai Jiuxiao asked Ning Shiqian in front of him, and pulled him around to look at the wound on his back.

"fine."

"Why do you want to save this king? Aren't you afraid of death?" Bai Jiuxiao asked with scrutiny in his eyes.

Ning Shiqian's eyes flickered slightly, and he said softly, "I don't know, I didn't think much about it at that moment, maybe the prince looks a lot like someone I know."

He can't say, because Concubine Xi can't kill you at all, Concubine Xi's purpose is just to let herself die in your hands, and Concubine Xi can't kill me, so why don't I take the opportunity to do it and let me be kind to you? you.

Bai Jiuxiao didn't know what he was thinking, but when he heard this, he was very happy.

Sure enough, he loves her as much as his life, just because of his similar appearance, he can stand up so without fear of danger.

On that side, Concubine Xi was already speechless, sobbing, with blood flowing from her mouth, Emperor Wen listened carefully, and after listening, he also whispered in her ear.

Everyone can only see the two concubines talking, but they can't hear what they are saying.

Then, Concubine Xi tilted her head and completely lost her temper.

Emperor Wen stared blankly for a while, then suddenly shouted: "Qin Fulai, declare the decree!"

"The Ninth Prince Bai Jiuxiao is suspected of privately minting coins and murdering his concubines. He is imprisoned in the Ninth Prince's Mansion. Before the truth comes to light, he is not allowed to step out of the Ninth Prince's Mansion!"
