Chapter 116
When Du Xin rushed to the main courtyard, Mrs. Zhu was still standing on the steps holding the sword in her hand.Seeing Du Xin, she closed her eyes suddenly, and opened them slowly after a long time.

She was blind and deceived, and she had lied to herself for so many years, but she still came to where she is today.

Du Xin knelt down in front of Mrs. Zhu, choked up and said:
"Mother, if there is anything wrong with what your son does, just say it, even if you want his life, your son will not say a word of no.

But you must not hurt yourself, otherwise how will your son live? "

Du Zhe, who was standing behind Mrs. Zhu, was so enraged by Du Xin's performance that he almost fainted.

Shen Qingyang glared at him, and he held back, not yelling.

On the contrary, Mrs. Zhu was very gentle and said to Du Xin:

"I don't know what happened, but it's worth shouting and killing from your subordinates.

You asked me to feed the prince medicine for you, but the prince has been in a coma, and until now, the medicine is still hot on the stove.

But these people rushed in suddenly, saying that Master Shen and Miss Mei had murdered the prince, and they wanted to arrest and punish them.

But Xin'er, I watched Miss Mei wake up the prince with my own eyes just now, but Miss Mei said that the prince should not take medicine directly because he has been on an empty stomach for too long, he should drink some porridge first, and wait a while before taking medicine.

Xin'er, what's going on?Did someone trick you on purpose? "

This time, Du Xin really panicked.

He actually didn't believe Zhu Shi's words, but if the old prince really didn't die, then he was really looking for his own death.

Du Zhe was amazed, he really didn't expect his aunt, who had been rigid for most of her life, to have such profound acting skills.

In fact, Zheng Long and his subordinates are the most nervous right now. The news they got from Du Xin is:
In order to weaken the power of Prince Yan's Mansion, the imperial court sent Shen Qingyang and Mei Xuelai to murder the old prince in the name of curing illnesses.As for the second son Du Zhe, he colluded with Shen Qingyang and Mei Xue in order to snatch the position of the son.

But now, the eldest lady actually said that the old prince is still alive and can eat porridge.

So what are they doing?
Isn't it just courting death?
Zheng Long was so nervous that he kept looking at Du Xin and Zhu's faces, trying to figure out who was lying.

But his subordinates were not so calm. As soon as Zhu's words fell, more than half of them were so frightened that they threw the weapons in their hands.

Du Xin glanced back, feeling more and more anxious.

He has been planning for many years, so he is naturally aware of the deterrent power of Old King Yan in the northern army.

As long as the old prince is not dead, even if he is already lying down and unable to move, no one would dare to have a different heart.

After struggling in his heart for a while, Du Xin continued to fight the trapped beast, kowtowed again and again and said:

"Mother, you must have been coerced by them, that's why you said that. Don't be afraid, I will..."

Before Du Xin finished speaking, Shen Qingyang threw the sword in his hand on the ground, and Liu Qi also threw his own swords.

Mrs. Zhu turned around, and the swords in her hand slid across the chests of Du Zhe, Shen Qingyang and Liu Qi one by one, then looked back at Du Xin and said:
"Look, Xin'er, do I look like I've been kidnapped?"

Zheng Long was so nervous that his head was sweating, he couldn't help walking up to Du Xin and asking:

"My lord, what's going on? Me and my brothers, who doesn't have a big family to support? You can't make fun of our lives."

As soon as Zheng Long finished speaking, the remaining hesitant soldiers put down their weapons one after another.

Du Xin was in a hurry. He yelled "shut up" at Zheng Long and stood up. He didn't have the heart to put on any more, and said to Zhu with a grinning grin:

"Mother, since you said that grandpa is fine and can eat, then please invite grandpa to come out to meet the soldiers, so as to prove that you are not being coerced by them to lie."

Du Zhe couldn't bear it anymore, he limped forward two steps, pointed at Du Xin and scolded:
"You bastard, grandpa is so sick that you have the guts to ask him to come out to see you? Why don't you go in and see grandpa?"

Du Xin sneered, and suddenly took out a black iron tiger talisman from his sleeve, held it up high and said:

"Do you think I'm stupid? Don't talk about going into the bedroom to see grandpa. I'm afraid you will kill me to silence me as soon as I walk up the steps?"

After finishing speaking, he ignored Zhu Shi, Du Xin and others, turned around holding the tiger amulet and said to Zheng Long and others:

"This is the soldier talisman of the northern border army. Seeing this talisman is like seeing Grandpa himself.

The day Shen Qingyang first arrived, grandpa handed me the military talisman and ordered me to act on behalf of King Yan after his accident. Do you understand?

If grandpa is really like what they said, why has he not made a sound even after several hours have passed? "

Zheng Long and the others naturally knew the meaning of this soldier talisman, and there was indeed no sound from the old King Yan in the main room, so after hearing Du Xin's words, these people hesitated again.

Someone had already bent down to pick up the weapons on the ground, Du Xin sneered silently with a gloomy face, and ordered the archers to put their arrows on the bow immediately.

Shen Qingyang and Liu Qi didn't dare to be careless, they hurriedly picked up their weapons from the ground and prepared to meet the enemy.

After this entanglement, more than an hour has passed.

Winters are short, especially in the Northlands.It was the end of Yin time, and the sky had already begun to darken.

The door of the main room was suddenly opened from the inside, and Mei Xue walked out calmly.

Du Zhe was worried about Mei Xue's safety. He knew that Mei Xue was not good at kung fu, so he hurriedly said:
"Miss Mei, you go into the house quickly, as long as we are here."

Mei Xue shook her head, raised her hand to signal Du Zhe to stop talking, then swept Du Xin, Zheng Long and others indifferently, and said:
"Du Xin, the lord has already eaten, but the medicine you gave me cannot be taken because it is highly poisonous.

As for why, I think you know best in your heart. "

While talking, she looked at Zheng Long and the soldiers again and said:

"Since you can't tell which is true and which is false, then I have a suggestion for you to choose.

There is still about an hour before dark, if the prince can't come out to see you then, I will admit everything the son said, and I will kill you if you want to be cut.

If the prince can come out to see you at that time, you don't have to be afraid, I can promise you now, as long as you don't do anything within an hour, I will plead with the prince for you at that time.

I guarantee this to you with my life, and you also know in your heart whether the old prince is a person who can distinguish right from wrong. "

After listening to Mei Xue's words, knowing that the old prince will definitely not be in danger of life, Zhu, who had been tense all the time, was relieved. She swayed and fell to the ground uncontrollably.

Du Zhe hurriedly knelt on the ground and helped Zhu Shi half up.

Du Xin was in a hurry, and ordered Zheng Long and the others loudly:

"Don't listen to this witch's nonsense, she is just delaying time. Shen Qingyang has close friends in the army, and they must be waiting for help."

Mei Xue laughed, and after closing her cloak, she looked at Du Xin and said:
"The soldiers are all in your hands. Who do you think Mr. Shen can mobilize to enter the city of Yanzhou?"

Zheng Long and the others were already hesitant, and Mei Xue's words were the best reassurance for them.

So, no matter how Du Xin yelled next, they just bowed their heads and listened.

People are not willing to move.

 Babies, because my daughter’s vacation schedule has undergone irrevocable changes, I need to spend more time with her, so from today onwards I can only update once a day. I’m very sorry. If possible later, I will strive to double Even.
