My country is dying

Chapter 408

Xiao Qi arrested the servant and asked where Pei Qing was, and the two went straight to the bedroom.

The guard kicked open the door of the bedroom. In the inner room, Pei Qing was lying there sleeping.

Fearing that he was playing tricks, Xiao Qi rushed forward and pulled him up from the bed: "Tell me, where is the antidote to the poison of Weeping Blood Begonia!"

Because Pei Qing was suddenly pulled up, he pressed his abdomen in pain, as if there was an injury there, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell into a coma with a weak face.

"Fake it!" Xiao Qi raised his fist and was about to hit someone, when suddenly someone beside him rushed forward and grabbed his hand, begging for mercy, "General Xiao is merciful, my son is seriously injured, and he can't stand it!"

"He can't stand the toss? If he really can't take the toss, don't be so vicious and get out of the way!"

Seeing that the servant was not letting go, Xiao Qi kicked him on the shoulder, kicking that person away, and then raised his fist to hit Pei Qing, but at the critical moment, he found that he couldn't move.

He looked aside, his expression turned cold: "King Qi, what do you mean?"

From the moment Mi Le saw Hou Junli rushing in to stop Xiao Qi, Mi Le's heart no longer fluctuated.

"...Brother, I knew you wouldn't leave me alone." Pei Qing, who had just passed out, suddenly woke up, with a wicked smile on her lips, and went straight to grab Xiao Qi's hand on his lapel.

Hou Junli didn't look at him, but just looked at Xiao Qi, word by word: "Let go, let go!"

Before Xiao Qi let go, he suddenly heard a crisp sound of "shua" next to him, and then there was a flash of cold light. When Hou Junli turned his head, he saw a cold sword facing him, and the owner of the sword was Mi Le.

Gao Yuan watched his sword being pulled away, feeling extremely panicked. Seeing that the two men were at war, he suddenly knelt down and knelt under Mi Le's sword, blocking Hou Junli who was behind him.

"Your Majesty, don't be impulsive, just speak up if you have something to say!"

Hou Junli met Mi Le's gaze, and his eyes were dark: "Gao Yuan, get out of the way."

Gao Yuan was so anxious that he knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your majesty, you can see clearly that the prince has never hurt your heart. During the hours when you were missing, the prince kept looking for you, and when you disappeared in Huangshan..."

"Shut up!" Hou Junli suddenly yelled, the anger was suppressed in his voice, "Get out of the way!"

Gao Yuan stopped talking, and finally didn't continue, so he could only move aside silently.

Mi Le didn't close his sword, and just stared at Hou Junli coldly from the beginning to the end.

"You want to protect his life, I agree. You want me to let go of the past, and I let it go. Now, I just ask him for an antidote, and King Qi won't obey?" Hou Jun said every word.

Hou Junli lowered his head and glanced at the cold sword's edge, and suddenly smiled: "The emperor doesn't want to trust his minister, and he doesn't mean to say more, but the Weeping Blood Begonia does not have an antidote, not only now, but also a hundred years ago. No! It never had a cure!"

Mi Le frowned, Xiao Qi on the other side saw that the situation was not good, immediately stood up and took Mi Le's hand holding the sword, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the court situation has not yet stabilized, King Qi can't do anything, this matter needs to be resolved." Think long-term!"

Mi Le glanced at him, but his face became even colder: "Since there is no antidote, then kill people and pay for your life. Why do you want King Qi's younger brother to kill my people, so I have to forgive him!"

After finishing speaking, she stared at Xiao Qi: "Get out of the way! Do you want to fight against me?"

Xiao Qi's heart trembled, and he immediately let go of his hand. Looking back at Hou Junli, he immediately said in a low voice: "King Qi, is your brother's life really so expensive? No matter how expensive his life is, he is more expensive than the emperor? Your majesty You don’t even feel guilty about walking through the gate of hell, but now you’re just asking for an antidote, so why bother!”

Hou Junli lowered his gaze: "As I said, there is no solution..."

He didn't say the medicine word, but suddenly felt a strong force behind him, and Mi Le's blade pierced into his chest so unexpectedly, Mi Le's hands trembled in shock, and he immediately let go of the hilt.

"King Qi..." Xiao Qi didn't see the situation just now at all, only saw the sword blade sinking into Hou Junli's chest, he was so frightened that he stepped forward to tap the acupuncture point to stop the bleeding.

"Brother..." On the side, Pei Qing screamed, and while supporting Hou Junli, she stared at Mi Le, "Your Majesty is really cruel. My brother has assisted you for so many years and worked hard. If it weren't for my brother, You don’t know how many times you have died, and you can still keep the throne? But that’s how you treat him now? It’s really good to be an emperor by killing heroes just now! If this spreads, who would dare to enter the court? To be an official? Fortunately, the emperor is still doing something to promote the new policy and hold the imperial examination. This is to send all the talents of the Jinyan Kingdom to the knife! Is the Jinyan Kingdom dying!"

"Shut up!" Hou Junli suddenly slapped Pei Qing on the shoulder and pushed him away.

However, he was stabbed to the point, and he had no strength at all at the moment.

Pei Qing just swayed and sat down firmly.He looked at Hou Junli with an innocent face: "Brother, I have spoken for you to this point, and you are still protecting her? Do you know that this dog emperor doesn't accept your favor at all, as long as you are a little Ambition, where will it be her turn to sit on the throne..."

"...Shut up!" Hou Junli yelled again, and Gao Yuan who was beside him glared at Pei Qing, "Young Master Pei, after all, it was the prince who protected your life. Is that how you treat the prince?"

Pei Qing showed an exaggerated surprised expression: "What's wrong with me? Didn't I speak for my brother? My brother's injury was stabbed by the dog emperor. Why don't you blame her but me instead?"

"You..." Gao Yuan was so angry that he couldn't speak, but at this moment, he suddenly heard shouting from outside the door, "Empress Dowager, Guan Lehou is here!"

Mi Le's expression froze, Xiao Qi and Gao Yuan beside him were shocked at the same time, and Du Pei Qing raised the corners of her lips to show a smile, her eyes full of evil.

"go!"

But at this moment, they heard the sound of a sword, and everyone turned their heads, only to see the long sword that had just been inserted into Hou Junli's chest fall to the ground and clank, and there were no Hou Junli and Mi Le in the room. figure.

Pei Qing's eyes were shocked, and she stood up abruptly: "Follow me, I won't allow the two of them to escape!"

When the Empress Dowager and Guan Lehou led a few important officials in the court, except for a pool of blood and a bloody sword, only Xiao Qi, Gao Yuan, and Pei Qing were left in the room. Where were those two people? .

Guan Lehou reacted, and immediately ordered the people he brought: "There are assassins, hurry up and don't let them escape!"

Xiao Qi and Gao Yuan looked at each other and nodded at the same time.If the two of them haven't realized that this is a trap at this moment, they are really fools.

The figures of the two blocked the window where Hou Junli and Mi Le disappeared, blocking the guards who were going to hunt them down.

"What assassin? There is no assassin at all! I was ordered by the emperor to come to understand some things from Mr. Pei, but I accidentally made Mr. Pei emotional, and the wound opened and bled a little, so please don't make a fuss." Xiao Qi said .

After all, he is the commander of the imperial army, and he is also the son of Zhongyonghoufu. When these words came out, the guards were a little bit afraid, and they didn't know whether to move forward or not.
