Chapter 165 Lu Pei'an killed Li Huating!
Midnight at 11:00 PM.
The Prince Qi's mansion was brightly lit and crowded with people.
An altar covering an area of 20 to 30 square meters was built in the middle of the yard. A blazing bonfire was burning in the middle of the altar. A wizard wearing a ghost mask led several disciples wearing red and colorful clothes. To the sound of deafening drums and music, they chanted something and waved swords to perform rituals.
The scene was filled with smoke and the atmosphere was eerie and terrifying. The night wind blew through with a whimpering sound like crying. Some timid eunuchs and palace maids could not help but tremble all over. Due to excessive fear, the sound of their teeth chattering violently could be heard in their ears, and they kept muttering in a low voice that this was none of their business.
After all, Xiaozhu's death was too tragic. After she was stabbed to death by Nangong Yan with a dagger, King Qi was afraid that the matter would become a big deal, so he directly sent people to throw Xiaozhu's body into a mass grave.
There was a servant who was originally on good terms with Xiaozhu. He had wanted to go quietly to help her collect the body, but when he arrived at the mass grave, he was almost scared crazy by the bloody scene.
Hungry wolves had gnawed Xiaozhu's body into pieces, leaving only a few bones. Her death must have been unjust, otherwise she wouldn't have caused such a big commotion!
Prince Qi, Li Huating, Empress Lü Shufang, Concubine De, the Emperor and others had all arrived. Upon seeing Fang Qingqing, Li Zhenting and others arrive, Concubine De warmly invited Princess Yu and her husband to sit next to them.
"Come and sit down. Things have been complicated and chaotic recently. The harem is in turmoil, and the court is in turmoil. The emperor has taken the trouble to arrange for the palace's Taichang to invite a magician to perform a ritual in the palace. Following Prince Qi, he has also taken care of all the demons and monsters in the harem..."
Defei glanced at Li Zhenting, who was wearing a golden mask, and asked with a worried and anxious look on her face.
"I wonder how Prince Yu is doing? The Emperor can't sleep at night and is extremely worried about Prince Yu. I can only persuade him that with the princess around, Prince Yu's condition will definitely improve..."
Fang Qingqing couldn't help but laugh inwardly. This Defei was greeting her openly but trying to find out the truth in secret.
Prince Yu had killed Sun Lanxin's uncle, Sun Di, with a single blow, and Concubine De must have already resented him to the core. Ever since Sun Di's passing, Concubine De had remained as virtuous and unconcerned with personal grudges as ever, a truly difficult situation for her.
Now that she has joined the game, she has to act according to the script, Fang Qingqing said with a sad face.
"The prince is seriously injured and the situation is not good. Although Qing'er has some medical knowledge, everyone has their own specialization. Qing'er's medical skills are useless for Prince Yu's current symptoms. Now Qing'er is pregnant and has difficulty moving. Prince Yu is in this situation, and his family is also in turmoil. Qing'er's heart is like being fried in oil..."
While Fang Qingqing was speaking, she couldn't help but turn her face away, pinching a handkerchief and gently wiping away the tears that didn't exist on her face.
She quickly and vigilantly scanned the entire area. Aside from the masked exorcist dancing frantically to the beat of drums on the altar, the gate at the base of the wall was filled with palace guards. Lü Shufang sat beside the vacant-eyed Li Huating, her eyes fixed anxiously on the altar. Her hands clutched the silk handkerchief tightly, as if ready to rip it at any moment.
I'm afraid this wizard must have some tricks up his sleeve, so we have to be careful and vigilant.
[Xiao Wu, how is the situation now? ]
[I have already eliminated all the archers ambushing on the palace wall. It seems safe now.]
[Okay, get ready, everything goes according to plan]
Good Master
Fang Qingqing quickly instructed Xiao Wu in her mind.
"Heaven and earth, may the evildoers show themselves quickly! Demons and monsters will quickly appear, and their souls will be scattered and never reincarnated!"
The wizard shouted loudly, sword in hand.
At this moment, Li Huating, who was drowsy sitting next to Lv Shufang, suddenly shuddered. His eyes, which were originally closed, suddenly opened open. He stood up straight and stretched out his hand to grab Lv Shufang's neck!
The incident happened suddenly, and the people sitting on the side were frightened and fled in panic.
Li Huating stared at Lu Shufang, his teeth grinding and blood flowing from the corners of his eyes.
"Give me back my life..."
The sound that came out of Li Huating's mouth was actually a woman's shrill scream!
Everyone was shocked! Concubine De, who had been sitting upright, had a drastic change of expression. She hurriedly grabbed Fang Qingqing and tried to get up and run for her life.
"Qing'er, run quickly! Don't let that evil spirit hurt you and the emperor's grandson!"
"Your Majesty, please leave first. Qing'er needs to take care of the prince!"
Fang Qingqing quickly pulled her hand out of Concubine De's hand, but Li Zhenting had already grasped her hand tightly.
Although he didn't believe in ghosts and gods, he knew that tonight was destined to be an unfair night. His eyes narrowed slightly beneath his mask, and he quickly scanned the room, then took Fang Qingqing's hand and strode to the side.
Fang Qingqing couldn't help but secretly admire him. Despite being blind, his reflexes were no less than those of a normal person. As expected of a disciple of Patriarch Xuanyun, his ability to locate a person by sound was truly remarkable. He could actually move freely in the unfamiliar Prince Qi's mansion.
"Your son has taken over my body, ruined my reputation, and threatened my life! Now he's colluding with a sorcerer to destroy me! As the Queen, you've failed in your parenting. How can you possibly sit on the throne?"
Li Huating stared at Lv Shufang, making a shrill cry, and actually grabbed Lv Shufang's neck with one hand and lifted her up from the ground into the air!
"Xiaozhu has possessed King Qi!"
"It must be Xiaozhu's soul coming back to take my life!"
"Xiaozhu is here for revenge! Xiaozhu was killed by Prince Qi and Nangong Yan together!"
Amidst the terrified cries, the palace maids and eunuchs all huddled together, trembling and holding their heads. How could they possibly come to the Queen's rescue when they were all so busy taking care of themselves?
Seeing Lv Shufang's face quickly turn pale, her tongue lolling out of her gaping mouth, Lv Pei'an quickly stepped forward, clutching the crimson scimitar, his eyes wide open as he suddenly shouted loudly in the direction of the mage.
"Save the Queen!"
As if he couldn't control his hands, he suddenly raised the scimitar in his hand high and stabbed it towards King Qi's back!
"what!"
Li Huating let out a scream and fell to the ground.
"Ting'er!"
Seeing Li Huating lying in a pool of blood with a knife in his back, Lu Pei'an screamed in fear. What frightened him most was that he couldn't control his arm at all. He watched helplessly as his arm pulled out the scimitar and then stabbed Li Huating several times!
"No, no, I didn't do it, I didn't do it!"
Lu Peian went crazy. Someone must have held his hand and done this!
"Capture Lu Pei'an and save Prince Qi!"
Seeing that the opportunity had come, Fang Qingqing quickly shouted, and several guards stepped forward and took Lu Pei'an down!
At this time, Lu Pei'an's face and body were covered in blood, and he looked down at the red moon scimitar in his hand that was dripping with blood, and screamed in fear.
"No, that's not the case. It wasn't me... How could I have hurt Ting'er? It was Xiaozhu. It was Xiaozhu who did this and used someone else's knife to kill someone!"
"Lü Pei'an! As the Prince of Zhengguan, instead of expanding the territory and garrisoning the frontier, you actually come to the palace to kill people! Even if Ting'er doesn't make any progress, he is still my eldest prince! It is not your turn to kill him! Pass on my order! Put Lü Pei'an in jail and wait for the Dali Temple to interrogate him before making a decision!"
Prince Jiajing walked forward with a look of grief and indignation on his face, looked at Li Huating lying motionless in a pool of blood, and shouted with gritted teeth.
Although he didn't know why Lu Pei'an suddenly went crazy, he also wanted to use Lu Pei'an to get rid of Li Huating, the bastard, and then slowly deal with Lu Shufang, the bitch who tried to confuse the royal bloodline!
As for acting, who can’t act?
