Chapter 571 Wind and Rain (5)

The emperor heard the words thoughtfully, but did not speak for a while.

At this moment, a little eunuch came in hastily, knelt down with a black box held high in both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, this is what Master Zou, the soldier of the Five Cities, just sent, please take a look at it."

The emperor immediately said: "Quickly submit it."

Eunuch Liu hurriedly took the box from the little eunuch, handed it over to the emperor's case, and opened the black box, his expression changed.

This is……

"Emperor!" The emperor cried out in pain, and took out a unicorn jade pendant from the box with trembling hands.

It was still given to the first prince by the emperor on his birthday when he was twelve years old, but now the jade pendant is stained with blood, which is shocking.

This blood-stained unicorn jade pendant was presented to the emperor in this way, which was definitely a threat and provocation to the emperor by the rebels of the previous dynasty.

The emperor held the unicorn jade pendant tightly in his hand, and the blue veins protruded on his forehead, and he didn't know whether it was anger or worry.

He took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice, "Besides this, does Zou Dahai have anything else to play?"

The little eunuch hurriedly replied respectfully: "Back to the emperor, Master Zou also said that a female corpse was found near the gate of Dongcheng in the capital, and it has been confirmed that it is the wife of Sun Shilang..."

Before he could finish speaking, Shi Lang interrupted him sharply: "What did you say, who did you say?" Shi Lang stared at the little eunuch with wide eyes, his face pale.

The little eunuch seemed unbearable, but he said it again: "It's Shi Lang's wife..."

"Madam!" Sun Shilang cried out in grief, his eyes rolled, and he fainted on the spot.

"Damn it!" The emperor never thought that those rebels would really kill the hostages.

Sun Shilang's wife is the emperor's distant cousin, the daughter of the royal family, and has royal blood. Although she has a distant relationship with the emperor, she still has royal blood. Door.

Killing a clan girl with royal blood is undoubtedly a warning and reminding the emperor to make an early decision, otherwise, the next person to die is likely to be the emperor's eldest son!

This gang of rebels is really lawless!

The more the emperor thought about it, the more angry he became. His breath was stuck in his chest, and at the same time, a burst of blood went straight to his forehead... For a moment, the emperor's body trembled violently, and with a "wow", he spat out a mouthful of blood, which stained the imperial case red. . And the emperor's face was like golden paper, and he looked like he was dying, and he immediately frightened the ministers and inner servants in the Dongci room.

"County Lord, Yaoguang County Lord!" Eunuch Liu shouted in disbelief, so frightened that he almost lost his mind, "Quick, the emperor, he..."

Although Nangong Yue couldn't see it from behind the screen, even if she heard the sound, she knew what was going on, and hurriedly walked out from behind the screen.

The ministers all looked at Nangong Yue with surprise. The thin screen could not hide the figure. They had discovered that there was someone hiding behind the screen, but they only thought it was the queen mother or the queen, but they did not expect it to be this Yaoguang County. host.

Nangong Qin was so surprised that he couldn't open his eyes, and he was a little worried in his heart: half of Nangong Mansion's current honor is earned by this niece, but accompanying the king is like a tiger, he does not ask her to exchange any glory for the mansion, but he does not ask for anything. However, saving lives is the most important thing.

Most of the ministers didn't know Nangong Yue, but after listening to Eunuch Liu's call, they naturally knew her identity. Although it was said that before they came to Dongci, they had heard the wind saying that the head of Yaoguang County had rescued the emperor who had been in a coma all night, but they still had some doubts in their hearts. Nine times out of ten, that rumor is true.
