Chapter 345 - Banquet Killing intent (2)
He cursed in his heart!
But at this time, the Imperial Consort Yu suddenly made a move.
There were hundreds of royal officials present. When they saw that the situation in the Imperial Consort Yu was amiss, they wanted to try and erase the situation, but, it was at this time that they astonishingly discovered that countless imperial guards had suddenly surged out from their surroundings.
These guards were dressed in the garb of the imperial guards, but they did not have any expression on their face, all of them holding crossbow s, powerful combo crossbow s!
This crossbow was even stronger than Mu Wanjun's improved version!
And these crossbow were even more powerful.
Suddenly, someone shot an arrow into the crowd as a deterrent.
The speed of this arrow was extremely fast, and it approached in full fury. The arrow pierced through the body of the palace maid, and the strong power behind it did not stop as it pierced through the body of another eunuch.
The arrow feather penetrated into the seat beside his and the arrow flew in, leaving behind only Bai Yu who was still trembling.
This arrow displayed all of its power. This was more useful than any warning.
The power of this arrow was terrifying. Amongst the hundred or so nobles present, half of them were civil servants while the other half were martial generals. However, when they entered the Imperial Palace, they also handed over their weapons.
Therefore, the only things that these people could use now were the tables and stools. However, the power of this arrow was great, so it seemed that these tables and stools weren't very useful.
These guards who suddenly appeared seemed to be listening to Imperial Consort Yu.
At this moment, Imperial Consort Yu was standing at a high place, her long hair was scattered, and her face was filled with deep sorrow. Her expression was a little strange, but she was muttering: ”Hao Er, you won't be too lonely down there, mother will bring them to see you right now, and kowtow and apologize to you.”
”Imperial Consort Yu, how dare you! Are you trying to rebel? ” Some of the ministers began to roar and curse.
However, Chunyu Hong continued to sit in his chair. He held a cup of wine in his hand, and his face was so calm that not a single trace of it could be seen. It was as if everything that had happened here had nothing to do with him.
Everything looked too weird.
Zuo Chenfeng looked and spoke to Jin Yulie beside him: ”Are you still not going to make your move?” Right now, Jin Yulie, who was standing in the middle of the group of people like a crane in a flock of chickens, had coincidentally become the living target of those imperial guards. The Imperial Consort Yu looked like she was possessed, even the Emperor would not keep her, what are you waiting for? ”
”Wait!” Jin Yulie's gaze did not leave Pure Yuhong. He had once told him to keep the lives of Pure Yuhao and Imperial Consort Yu, but he did not do it.
Chunyu Hao had injured Mu Wanjun, so he deserved to die. But now that the Imperial Consort Yu had chosen to kill him together with him, he had no other choice. However, he also wanted to know Chunyu Hong's truest thoughts. Even until now, Chunyu Hong did not even look at Imperial Consort Yu! If it wasn't for him completely looking down on the Imperial Consort Yu's so-called rebellion, then there was only one possibility, and that was that he knew everything!
During the last family banquet, he had given him Military Symbol s that could mobilize troops as well as an imperial edict, so even without looking, Jin Yulie knew what it was.
However, under these circumstances, Chunyu Hong would not be unaware of this beforehand. This was because the Eunuch Hao had never appeared at the banquet.
Eunuch Hao was Chunyu Hong's trusted confidant. He could not trust anyone but he had absolute trust in Eunuch Hao. His absence indicated that there was something hidden behind this matter that he did not know about.
Perhaps, until now, Chunyu Hong was still probing, from the moment he opened his mouth to kill that palace maid.
