Chapter 195 The cowardly and shameless Jamel Xiao
Princess Mingzhu was startled and took the spicy strips out of her mouth: "How dare you poison me..."
Before she could finish her words, she tasted the spicy flavor.
Her eyes suddenly lit up and she tried taking a bite of the spicy strips. The more she chewed, the more delicious it became.
"what is this?"
Ye Tang took out another spicy strip and took a bite: "Spicy strips, I made them myself, you can eat them without worry, they are not poisonous."
Princess Mingzhu ate all of the spicy strips, then reached out to Ye Tang: "I want more."
"Who am I?" Ye Tang asked.
Princess Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, then she responded: "Cousin."
"Who is Qin Xian?"
This time Princess Mingzhu did not hesitate: "The Qin Immortal is called Master Qingchen. No one knows his full name. His Qin skills are superb. He can kill people and tame animals with the sound of his Qin. He is not only famous in the Yuan Dynasty, but also in other countries. He comes and goes without a trace, wearing a white mask. No one has ever seen his true face."
"Last August, Master Qingchen publicly accepted Gao Yuman as his disciple and taught her his superb zither skills, which made all the rich girls in the capital city envious."
"I don't know what they envy. It's just playing the piano. What's there to envy? Cousin, do you still have spicy noodles?"
After Princess Mingzhu finished speaking, she stared at Ye Tang with her beautiful eyes shining.
Ye Tang took out a plate of spicy strips from behind him like a magic trick.
Princess Mingzhu was instantly delighted: "Thank you, cousin, you are so kind, Mingzhu likes you the most!"
Ye Tang: "...You said yesterday that I'm not worthy of being your cousin's wife?"
Princess Mingzhu bit a spicy noodle in her mouth: "Really? You heard it wrong."
Ye Tang: "...When you have time, come to Pingshan Palace and I'll make delicious food for you."
"Really! Thank you, cousin, I will go there every day."
"Just go once in a while."
"Oh, okay, by the way, do you have any more crispy chili?"
"..."
Ye Tang stayed with Princess Mingzhu, and by the time Xiao Jingxuan came back to his senses from his heartbreak, his wife had already gone to someone else's place.
Jamel Xiao glared at Princess Mingzhu.
Suddenly, beautiful piano music rang out.
The sound of the piano instantly draws people into the artistic conception, and in a flash, it seems as if they can see mountains, grasslands, and galloping horses...
Princess Ningkang plays the piano really well.
Ye Tang didn't understand the guqin, but he thought the sound was great.
Gao Yuman came on stage next. Her piano skills were indeed better than those of Princess Ningkang...
But, it's so boring!
Ye Tang yawned. The palace banquet seemed too long. She wanted to go home to eat hotpot and take a nap.
Gao Yuman played the zither exquisitely, and most people present were fascinated by it. Emperor Yuanwu, the Empress, and the Queen Mother all looked appreciative. Suddenly, a group of graceful dancers entered the palace banquet, danced to Gao Yuman, and danced around her to the sound of the zither. The sound of the zither and the beauty formed a beautiful picture.
When Gao Yuman was halfway through her piano dance, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind in the air.
Ye Tang subconsciously pulled Princess Mingzhu.
Princess Mingzhu fell back and leaned on her.
"Cousin, what are you doing?" Princess Mingzhu still had a spicy strip in her mouth.
call out!call out!
Two arrows flew over and pierced the place where Princess Mingzhu had just supported her hands.
"Ah!" Princess Mingzhu screamed in fright.
shhhhhh!
Dozens of arrows appeared from all directions and shot into the palace banquet.
"There are assassins!"
Everyone was instantly in chaos, especially the civil officials, who subconsciously looked for places to hide.
The military officers caught the arrows with their bare hands and subconsciously ran towards the emperor.
"Protect the Emperor, the Empress, and the Queen Mother!"
The palace guards and the imperial guards were dispatched one after another.
A group of men in black appeared and killed anyone they saw.
However, there were so many guards that they couldn't kill anyone and could only disrupt the scene.
Today is the first day of the new year, and the palace is under tight security. All officials and princes entering the palace are not allowed to bring weapons, and actors and craftsmen brought in from the public are also subject to inspection. Despite such strict control, an assassin still managed to sneak in.
"Catch assassins!"
"Protect the Emperor!"
There were too many people in the hall. It was chaotic and noisy at the moment. There were screams, shouts... all kinds of sounds.
"Where is Jingxuan? Let Jingxuan hide here quickly?" The Emperor Yuanwu, who was protected by the Jinyiwei, looked around for Xiao Jingxuan.
The Queen Mother was also worried about Jamel Xiao: "That child doesn't know martial arts! Your Majesty, send someone to protect him!"
Where is Jamel Xiao?
He was running towards Ye Tang.
Ye Tang was protecting Princess Mingzhu.
The dancers who were dancing with Gao Yuman screamed and ran around. Three of them accidentally ran in front of Xiao Jingxuan. The assassin chased them and started to chop them with swords.
The dancer anxiously reached out to Xiao Jingxuan for help.
When Xiao Jingxuan saw the assassin, he was so scared that he screamed, pushed away the dancer who was blocking his way, and ran towards Ye Tang.
"There are so many assassins! Lady, help me!"
The dancer who was pushed away: "......"
The assassin's sword stabbed at her, and the dancer screamed in panic and started running around again.
"Ah! Help!"
Coincidentally, the direction in which these dancers fled was exactly the same; they all ran towards Xiao Jingxuan, Ye Tang, and Princess Mingzhu.
Xiao Jingxuan had just met up with Ye Tang when he saw a dancer running over in a panic and falling in front of him: "Help!"
The veil on her face fell, revealing her charming and beautiful face. Her skin under the low collar was as white as snow, and the fullness of her breasts was extremely charming.
Any man would be moved by such a beautiful face and hot body.
However, Xiao Jingxuan was only concerned with fear and tried desperately to hide behind Ye Tang.
"Help! Madam! There's an assassin!"
"Ah! Ah! Ah!"
His screams were louder than the woman's.
Princess Mingzhu was frightened by him and fell silent: "......"
How could this cousin be so cowardly?
The dancer on the ground was also confused.
Ye Tang looked at her with fiery eyes: "What a beautiful woman, I noticed you when you were dancing just now, I like your figure so much."
She approached the dancer and held out a hand: "The assassin is coming, get up!"
The dancer grabbed her hand desperately as if she had seen a life-saving straw.
An assassin came with a sword.
Ye Tang screamed in shock and pushed the dancer out fiercely: "Don't kill me, kill her if you want to!"
Dancer and Assassin: "......"
The dancer uncontrollably bumped into the assassin, and the assassin's sword pierced the dancer's body before he could retract it.
The dancer's eyes widened in disbelief, and blood splattered out.
Ye Tang screamed even louder: "Ah, murder! I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, husband, husband, run, run with me!"
"Oh, okay, okay, my lady, my legs are weak." Xiao Jingxuan was about to cry, his face was as pale as paper.
Ye Tang opened his hands: "Jump up."
Jamel Xiao jumped suddenly and fell into Ye Tang's arms. Ye Tang held him firmly in a princess hug and called Princess Mingzhu: "Cousin, run with us!"
After saying that, she hugged Xiao Jamel and ran away!
Xiao Jingxuan was still shouting: "Madam, run faster, ah! Don't run over there, there are assassins, madam, get out of the way!"
"Ah! This dancer has a sword in her hand. She wants to kill me. She is also an assassin!"
"Ah! Help!"
Xiao Jingxuan shouted one after another, and Ye Tang ran very fast holding him.
Princess Mingzhu: "......"
Not only did my cousin not protect his wife, he also let her run away carrying him. I have never seen such a shameless and cowardly man!
"Princess, be careful!" Several guards came to Princess Mingzhu and sent her to a safe place.
As Ye Tang and the other man ran, they found that more and more assassins were surrounding them.
They finally escaped to a few guards, but an assassin emerged from among the guards. They fled to the eunuchs and palace maids, but there was also an assassin among them. Some used poison and some used a dagger, all of which were aimed at the couple.
"These people are hiding too deeply!"
"The palace is so scary!"
Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan tried desperately to hide.
Emperor Yuanwu searched for a long time and finally saw them.
"Someone, go and rescue King Pingshan and Princess Pingshan."
Several secret guards appeared, ran towards Ye Tang and the others, and stopped the assassins.
The moment the assassins were captured, they committed suicide by biting the poison sacs hidden in their mouths.
Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan were so frightened that they broke out in cold sweats.
"Sister, brother-in-law, we are here!" Ye Ping'an, Ye Peng and Shangguan Zhenhua rushed over here.
Ye Ping'an lifted up a desk and smashed it hard, hitting an assassin who was rushing in front of Ye Tang.
This is the last assassin. He was knocked unconscious but not dead.
The secret guard flashed over, pried open the assassin's mouth, and took out the poison sac.
But he discovered that the assassin had no tongue.
There were no special marks on his body, and the black clothes he wore were ordinary.
"Sister, are you and brother-in-law okay?" Ye Ping'an came to Ye Tang.
"We are not injured, but your brother-in-law was frightened." Ye Tang put Xiao Jingxuan down, and Xiao Jingxuan's legs were shaking.
Shangguan Zhenhua simply couldn't bear to watch: "Can you be more capable? Just a few assassins scared you like this."
Jamel Xiao’s voice trembled: “I, I have no ambition, but my wife has ambition, that’s all.”
Shangguan Zhenhua said: "You are so weak, it won't work. I will train you well later."
Jamel Xiao rolled his eyes and fainted in Ye Tang's arms.
"Jingxuan!" Emperor Yuanwu came hurriedly and was extremely worried when he saw this scene.
"Doctor, call the doctor quickly!" he shouted anxiously.
There were hundreds of assassins, but only one survived, the rest were dead.
Before the people present could recover from the shock, they heard Emperor Yuanwu's exclamation.
King Pingshan fainted?
Everyone was fine, except King Pingshan who fainted from fright!
After the imperial physician's diagnosis, he found that Prince Pingshan was not only fainted, but also had a fever.
I got scared and fell sick!
So weak?
Emperor Yuanwu was furious and ordered Shangguan Zhenhua, the crown prince, the commander of the imperial guards and others to thoroughly investigate the matter.
After a thorough investigation overnight, it was concluded that the assassins were all dead men, and no one knew who was the mastermind behind the scenes?
"Investigate, thoroughly investigate. Everyone who was responsible for the safety of the palace today will be punished!"
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, with so many people in the palace, causing such a big incident, and so many assassins sneaking in, the person behind this must be very powerful.
There is also the purpose of the person behind the scenes. Judging from the assassin's every move, it is obvious that he is targeting Xiao Jingxuan and Ye Tang.
Emperor Yuanwu's face was terribly gloomy.
The nephew he had just found was targeted so quickly, and so many assassins were sent to assassinate him. Who was that person?
......
When Xiao Jingxuan woke up, it was already early morning. He was in the Queen Mother's palace, and Ye Tang was sleeping next to him.
"Madam." Xiao Jingxuan called softly.
"You're awake." Ye Tang opened her eyes, but she was not actually asleep.
The lights were on in the room. Jamel Xiao sat up and looked around.
Ye Tang said, "Don't look. The palace maids have all gone out. There are two guards outside the door. He Songlin has also been called by the emperor and is hiding in the dark."
Jamel Xiao said "oh".
Ye Tang reached out and touched his forehead: "It's not hot anymore!"
"Xiao Jingxuan, you have become completely famous and have become the most cowardly and timid prince in the history of the Yuan Dynasty!"
Jamel Xiao’s face was still very pale: “This is the effect I want, it’s just a false reputation, I don’t care!”
Ye Tang looked at him and said, "The Emperor and the Queen Mother are very worried about you. They really care about you. After you fainted, they were very anxious. Husband, let's do less of this kind of thing in the future, so that the old people won't get sick from worrying about you."
Jamel Xiao nodded: "I'll listen to my wife. It's okay to be a coward once. We can do whatever we want at other times. I checked my grandmother's pulse, and her body can still hold on."
He changed the subject: "Let's talk about those assassins! The people behind the scenes were very powerful to be able to sneak into the palace on the first day of the new year."
"Have you guessed who it is?" Ye Tang asked.
"Gaoyi." Xiao Jingxuan said the name.
"He made such a fuss, he really wanted to test me, he really wanted to kill me, after this incident, my reputation as a waste is confirmed!"
"It is more comfortable to be a waste favored by the emperor than to be a genius."
"How do you know for sure it's Gaoyi?" Ye Tang was puzzled. "I asked my grandfather. Your father made countless enemies during his lifetime. He not only had enemies in the capital, but also in other places."
Knowing that the palace was heavily guarded, sending assassins would accomplish nothing but create chaos and make the emperor unhappy, the person behind the scenes still sent assassins, and they were all death squads. No one knew what kind of brain they had.
"I don't know, I'm just guessing." Xiao Jingxuan lay down on the bed, holding Ye Tang's waist with both hands: "My father is so powerful, it's normal to have some enemies."
"If your reputation as a loser gets out, those who worship your father will be disappointed."
"It's none of my business whether they are disappointed or not. I have never been their hope. I am just myself. If I had to find out the truth about my parents' death and meet my grandmother and uncle, I wouldn't bother coming to the capital!"
The capital city is big and prosperous, but there is not much to it. It is better to stay in Qingquan Village.
Xiao Jingxuan asked: "When will we leave the palace?"
"Tomorrow morning."
Dawn, the second grade of junior high school.
All the assassins from last night were dealt with, and the hall where the fighting took place was cleaned up as if nothing had happened.
Seeing that Xiao Jingxuan no longer had a fever, his body had returned to normal, and he ate everything in the morning with relish, the empress dowager breathed a sigh of relief and sent someone to tell the emperor the good news.
Upon learning that Xiao Jingxuan was going to leave the palace, Emperor Yuanwu ordered someone to invite Xiao Jingxuan to the imperial study.
"Jingxuan, as the son of the God of War, you have too many responsibilities to bear. You can't continue to be so weak. I didn't sleep all night and thought of many ways to train you..."
"Train me?" Jamel Xiao looked horrified.
