MTL - Our Mommy is the Best Investigator!-Chapter 862 Besieged
Chapter 862 Besieged on all sides
Looking down at Ji Huaizhang lying in a pool of blood at the bottom of the city wall, Sun Haitang was already in a state of confusion.
She originally thought that with her position in the heart of the lord, and with so many years of affection, the lord would fight to the death for her and for the Ji family.
So in these years, even if she thought about being superior, she never thought of killing the mistress and wife immediately, but let her die slowly.
Because as long as he wins the world, he will eventually accept himself again when he is as powerful as Queen Mother Tian.
But what she didn't expect was that all her plans suddenly came to nothing.
He would rather die than fulfill his wish.
He kept reverberating in his mind the vows and sweet words he once made to him, and recalling the expression of hatred he had shown him just now, Sun Haitang felt that his whole world had collapsed.
"Zhang Lang, I did all this for the Ji family and for you, why do you treat me like this."
Sun Haitang leaned on the edge of the wall with both hands weakly, staring at the city with empty eyes.
Ji Wanying was also very anxious at this moment. Seeing Sun Haitang's mourning posture, she knew that it would be impossible to rely on this woman to achieve anything, so she grabbed the roster in her hand and headed towards the banners flying outside the city. The honorable army shouted:
"For hundreds of years, the family has no shady activities in their hands, but now the new emperor ascends the throne, all relying on the few lies of the new queen in the carriage under the city, the new emperor will kill you all, completely forget The merits of the ancestors of each family, my mother said that the Princess Jun had protected you all when she was alive, but now that she died tragically, you have nothing to rely on. If you fall into her hands, the Mu family will be your end."
After some provocative words fell, swords were on the verge of breaking out again everywhere, and the nobles began to gear up and eager to try.
Seeing this situation, Ji Rongheng took the lead to draw out his saber, guarded in front of Chu Nanzhi's carriage, pointed the sword at the top of the city wall, and shouted angrily: "I see who dares, I am Your Majesty personally entrusting Ji Rongheng, the Great General of Zhenxi, here, Sun Shi Forcing the assassin to death, and wanting to murder the empress, if you dare to help the tyrant, you will be killed without pardon."
"Brother, have you forgotten how the woman in front of you once arranged you to be sent out of Beijing to Langzhou? Now is a great opportunity for you to make contributions and make a fortune. If you miss this opportunity, there is no possibility of turning over again." , My Ji family is now pointing at you."
Ji Wanying persuaded her earnestly.
"Wanying, you unworthy descendant, you have really disregarded the love your grandparents have given you over the years. The ancestors and His Majesty Nian have shown you extra favors many times because of your uncle's sacrifice for the country, but you have never changed your mind after repeated admonitions. Now that you forced your second uncle to death, and urged the nobles to commit treason, do you still want to force your grandparents to death as well?"
Ji Rongheng was extremely disappointed with this cousin.
I really underestimated her. She usually looks harmless to humans and animals, but every thing she does is shocking to the extreme.
But Ji Wanying was not willing to listen to his dissuasion, and replied firmly: "Grandfather and grandmother are just being deceived by others. Sooner or later they will understand my painstaking efforts. My mother has worked hard for the court and grandmother all these years, but because of disagreement with the new emperor As soon as she was abandoned by the emperor's grandmother, she was always the emperor's brother's biological aunt, the emperor's grandmother's own flesh and blood, how could she end up like this."
After saying that, she turned to the nobles gathered in the city again, and continued to persuasion: "My mother died for you. She knows that the empire depends on your uncles and the big families, so she would rather try her own way than defend her. Ancestral system, are you going to let her painstaking efforts down?"
Listening to this impassioned and high-sounding statement, Chu Nanzhi sat quietly in the carriage and only felt it was funny.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, how could she believe that the seemingly delicate little princess would have dared to encourage the nobles to rebel.
Really deserves to be of royal blood.
But Ji Huaizhang died in order to **** herself out of the city, for the righteousness in her heart. She went deep into the dangerous place today and also attracted all the hidden forces in Tanzhou. She must not watch Ji Huaizhang die in vain.
Thinking of this, Chu Nanzhi resolutely walked out of the carriage and stood on the horse stool. She looked around at the dark crowd with no end in sight, and shouted loudly:
"Princess Yan Jun did not hesitate to cause tens of thousands of people in Langzhou to suffer misfortune for her own selfishness. The ancestors killed her only to rectify the law of the country. Now Qinghe Sanzhou is panicked by all the nobles, but the ancestors think that all of you have contributed For the sake of the country, the imperial court only ordered you to rein in the precipice and not pursue past mistakes, but you still don’t want to repent, please ask yourself, how can you be worthy of the dead heroes like this.”
Reluctantly glanced at Ji Wanying on the city, her tone gradually became high-pitched, and said righteously: "Since I chose to come to Tanzhou, I have already prepared for the worst. Today, Governor Ji will not hesitate to die to protect your reputation. , although I don't want to see fratricide again, but I will never be reduced to fish on the chopping board. If you insist on going your own way, I would rather die than be whole. I am willing to go to Jiuquan with the governor to help the court Master Wang."
As soon as these words came out, the nobles were immediately shocked.
It is disrespectful for the Sun family and the princess to force the governor to death. If the queen is forced to death in Tanzhou, it will only make the court more famous.
Looking at the vacillating nobles, Ji Wanying became even more anxious, and urged her loudly: "Don't listen to her eloquent words. If you don't take her down quickly, what awaits you will be an abyss beyond redemption."
While everyone was hesitating, a rough roar suddenly came from a distance: "Who dares to make mistakes."
Everyone looked for the reputation, only to see that the sky was already full of dust, and the banners covering the sky began to sweep across the entire city of Tanzhou.
Then there was an endless stream of sentry cavalry interspersed from the army formation:
"Your Majesty personally led the 500,000 troops from Binzhou, Yizhou, Mengzhou, and Xiazhou to Tanzhou. His Majesty ordered you to be meritorious and noble, and you don't want to be loyal to the country, but you don't care about the court's kindness. If you dare to lie today If you do something wrong again, you will never be forgiven lightly.”
Listening to the shouts of killing all over the sky, the mighty military might frightened the nobles who had already lost their backbone.
Not long after, a pair of bright cavalry from the east came galloping towards the crowd.
Looking at the most conspicuous imperial banner, Chu Nanzhi's whole heart tightened.
Staring blankly at the oncoming team for a long time, until he saw the most familiar figure, he finally couldn't hide the joy in his heart, showing a relaxed look of joy.
"Brother Emperor?"
Ji Wanying was full of confusion, feeling inexplicable fear at Lin Jinxiao's sudden arrival.
Under the eyes of everyone, Lin Jinxiao was wearing a golden armor and holding a silver gun, and ran straight to Chu Nanzhi's car. Seeing her dull and puzzled expression, he dragged her from the horse stool with a light smile. on horseback.
After being away for several months, coupled with anger and heartache for her putting herself in danger today, Lin Jinxiao just hugged her waist tightly without saying a word for a long time.
"You, why are you here?"
Chu Nanzhi felt his calm breathing, and knew that he would definitely blame herself for entering the city alone today.
Lin Jinxiao glanced coldly at Ji Huaizhang, who died tragically at the bottom of the city wall, then raised his eyes to Ji Wanying who was looking at him face to face, and said two words lightly: "Enter the city."
