Chapter 694 Escape

   Seeing the Queen Mother fell into madness, the royal family members were secretly sighing.

  Since entering the palace, this woman has not received much favor, but she has the ability to overpower the queen and break the siege to become the queen dowager, which really surprised many people.

  Everyone once envied her good luck, thinking that she could continue to be honored as the queen mother.

  Unexpectedly, the situation suddenly changed.

  When the truth came to light, everything she had was reduced to ashes.

  The scene fell into silence, only the cry of the Queen Mother lingered.

  Princess Ningyang withdrew her will from the hand of the Queen Mother, looked at the left and right prime ministers, and asked in a deep voice.

   "The so-called seeing is believing, should the two of you accompany this palace to meet the Lord Yi Jianzhen?"

  The two prime ministers quietly glanced at each other.

  In fact, they knew very well in their hearts that if things had progressed to this point, it didn't matter whether Zhen Guo Gong was still alive.

  They only need to know that the edict is true.

  As a civil servant, the most important thing is his character and reputation.

  The decree has proved that today's saints are not orthodox.

  They assisted the regent to bring the chaos out anyway, in accordance with the destiny. Even if this matter is to be recorded in the annals of history in the future, future generations will only judge them for discerning loyalty and evil.

  Since this is the case, why don’t they take advantage of the trend and sell the regent alone?

  With just one look, the two old foxes have already exchanged ideas with each other.

  They speak in unison.

   "No need."

  Then they saw the two of them stunned and knelt down in the direction where Li Ji was.

   "The ministers believe what His Royal Highness the Regent said."

   Mu Qing reacted extremely quickly, and immediately knelt down and shouted loudly.

   "His Royal Highness is the orthodox royal family!"

  Six Shangshu saw the two prime ministers kneeling, why should they hold on? They all knelt down numbly.

   "The ministers are willing to support His Royal Highness the Regent as the emperor!"

  The royal family members originally just wanted to join the fun with the princess Ningyang, to see if they could find opportunities to gain some benefits? But did not expect things will progress to this point.

  The current situation is almost a one-sided trend, and anyone with a discerning eye knows how to choose.

  Anyway, the throne still belongs to their Li family. It's the same for everyone.

  So the clan members all knelt down and shouted in unison.

  "We are willing to support His Royal Highness the Regent as the emperor, and to comfort the spirit of Prince Li Shu in the sky!"

  Princess Ningyang narrowed her phoenix eyes, scanned the surrounding Yu Linwei and Ye Xiaowei, and asked sharply.

   "Why? Do you still want to resist to the end?!"

  Habayashi and Ye Xiaowei’s commanders are all close confidants of the Queen Mother.

  The two of them knew in their hearts that even if they surrendered now and waited for the Regent Qiuhou to settle their accounts, they would definitely not be able to eat.

  Since this is the case, it is better to take a gamble at the end.

  The two pretended to be dejected and prepared to put down their weapons.

  At this moment, everyone feels that there is no danger.

  It was the most relaxing moment when the two commanders suddenly took action, and their blades rushed towards Princess Ningyang!

  They can't beat the Regent, but they can use the life of Princess Ningyang to blackmail the Regent.

  The maids around the princess were so frightened that Huarong turned pale and screamed.

  "Your Royal Highness, be careful!"

  At the critical moment, Mu Qing shot in time, rushed up and threw Princess Ningyang to the ground.

  The blades in the hands of the two commanders split.

  They immediately closed their swords and reached out to grab the princess Ningyang and Mu Qing on the ground.

  The queen mother who witnessed this scene seemed to see the last glimmer of hope, and shouted: "Catch them!"

  With the seniority of Princess Ningyang, as long as she is caught, it is equivalent to holding an important hole card.

  They can use this to win the capital to negotiate with Li Ji.

  Everyone's hearts mentioned their throats.

   Just when the fingers of the two commanders were about to touch the princess Ningyang, a knife shot sharply, piercing the hearts of the two people accurately.

  Blood splashed out, dyeing the dresses of Princess Ningyang and Mu Qing.

  The next moment, the two leaders are in a pool of blood.

  The eyes of the two of them were wide open, and their faces were full of disbelief.

  It seems that I didn’t respond when I was about to die. How did I die?

  Everyone looked in the direction where the blade was thrown, and saw Li Ji, the regent standing on the steps.

  He retracted his right hand, his expression indifferent.

   "Assassin the princess in public, be a sham."

   A simple and simple sentence, but like a collision of weapons, full of murderous intent, shocked everyone's hearts.

  Hua Dingzong looked at his free hand, then looked at the regent, still a little confused.

  Isn’t that knife held in his hand? Why did he get into the hands of the regent all at once? Why did you shoot those two leaders all at once?

  This speed is too fast, right? Scared to death!

  At the moment when Hua Dingzong was stunned, Li Qiong suddenly broke free from the shackles and ran wildly.

   Hua Dingzong exclaimed: "Stop!"

  He hurried to catch up.

  Li Ji glanced at Mu Qing, and said, "Take care of the princess."

   Then he stepped away and chased in the direction where Li Qiong fled.

  Hua Dingzong shouted at the back of the little emperor.

   "Don't waste your energy, you can't run away!"

  Li Qiong didn't look back, and ran extremely fast under his feet as if the wind was blowing.

  He has spent almost his entire life at this time.

  He knows that the Regent has the advantage, and he can’t compete with it alone, but he still has the last card, which is Huamanman.

  As long as he can hold Hua Manman, the regent dare not do anything to him.

  In addition, Mr. Zhu helped him with suggestions.

  He may not have the chance to comeback.

  ……

  In the room, Hua Manman pressed Mr. Zhu to the ground, holding the dagger tightly in his right hand, and the sharp blade was close to Mr. Zhu’s neck.

  Mr. Zhu clearly felt the cold and hard touch from the cold weapon.

  Habayashi outside the door did not get a response, so he knocked harder and asked again.

   "Mr. Zhu, how are you doing?"

  Flower Manman increases the strength of his men.

  The sharp blade pierced the skin, but there was no bleeding.

  The threat is already very obvious.

  Mr. Zhu said in a low voice: "I just need to shout and someone will come in."

  Flower Manman: "Then you just shout, let them see with their own eyes how you automatically heal your wounds, and see if they will catch you as a monster and burn you to death?"

  Mr. Zhu was speechless.

  If his body is not seriously injured, he doesn't need to worry about so much, just kill the few Habayashi outside the door.

  But now he is in a very weak state, he is hard to protect himself, let alone murder.

  In the end, he could only speak unwillingly.

   "I'm fine."

  The Habayashi guards outside the door heard this, they didn't knock on the door any more, and silently returned to their posts.

  The dagger is still attached to Mr. Zhu’s neck.

  Even if Mr. Zhu is not a human being, he can still feel the pain of his neck being split apart by a knife.

   he frowned and said.

   "You can't kill me."
