Chapter 490 Death

This statement completely crushed the imperial concubine's heart. She stared at the queen with bloodshot eyes, then looked at the two eunuchs standing around her, and her murderous intentions were immediately revealed.

Anyway, she would not survive today, so she might as well give it a try. If she could drag the queen to death with her, she might be able to get rid of a big trouble for the children.

So, without saying a word, she took the dagger in the lacquer tray and rushed towards the queen with the sharp knife, muttering to herself.

"Bitch, die!"

No one reacted to her move, and they were really scared.

Unfortunately, she knew too little about Queen Guo, so she didn't know that Queen Guo still had some skills. Although she was not to the point of killing people, she could still avoid a fierce killing knife in a critical moment.

If she missed the attack, she would lose her chance.

Empress Guo kicked her hand, and the knife fell to the ground. Without the weapon, the imperial concubine was just an ordinary woman. Eunuch Liu and Eunuch Hu immediately stepped forward to suppress her and shouted loudly.

"Come here, the imperial concubine has assassinated the queen!"

This shout also ended the imperial concubine's possible way of survival. Thinking of her future fate, she felt that it would be better to die now.

Unfortunately, the two eunuchs looked delicate and strong, and they pressed her down so that she could not move. In the end, she could only be captured by the guards who rushed in and trapped.

When she stood up again, her gorgeous clothes had lost their former noble appearance, her hair was messy, and her whole body was decadent but stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat.

Empress Guo straightened her clothes and said sternly when she saw her defeated appearance.

"Immediately, send the imperial concubine to heaven, and then report that the imperial concubine used elixirs to please the emperor, not only killed His Majesty, but also tried to assassinate me in an attempt to control the government of Daxing. For such evil deeds, order the crown prince and Prime Minister Guo to thoroughly investigate the people behind her and those who are related to her, regardless of their identities, regardless of age, and arrest them all. When the day of His Majesty's funeral is the day these people will die!"

After Queen Guo said this, the imperial concubine couldn't help but curse!

"Guo, you bitch, how dare you treat us like this! We are the imperial concubines appointed by His Majesty, and we are His Majesty's biological children! How dare you!"

"Why shouldn't I dare? What about the imperial concubine? What about biological children? Once the evidence of regicide is verified, you can expect your entire family to be buried with you!"

Then he looked at Eunuch Hu and Eunuch Liu and said.

"No need for daggers, just force poison in her mouth! I want to see her die thoroughly!"

"Yes! Your Majesty!"

Both of them were old people who had seen life and death in the palace. Who didn't have some blood on their hands? Moreover, anyone with eyes could see that the queen and the prince were the future. Who wouldn't want to step on the corpse of the imperial concubine to move up?

So, the two of them also had bloodshot eyes. One held her head and the other forced her to swallow the poison.

The poison was the red-crowned crane, which was fatal. Even the gods couldn't save her after taking it.

Soon, the imperial concubine felt her blood flowing backwards and her breathing was not smooth. Finally, she died in the palace where she had been favored for many years with bulging eyes and bleeding mouth.

Eunuch Liu did not give up. He stepped forward and stabbed the imperial concubine in the chest again, piercing directly from the front chest to the back. With two such moves, even if the imperial concubine was the reincarnation of a cat demon, she would not survive.

The smell of blood filled the bedroom, but no one present was afraid or retreated, and they were even slightly excited. After all, they followed the right master. Now that the master was going to rule the world, they would naturally rise to heaven.

Empress Guo looked at the dead imperial concubine, and she did not look afraid. Instead, she gave orders to the people present.

"Clean up the imperial concubine's palace. I don't want to see anyone walk out of here alive. The imperial concubine's crimes will be announced to the world immediately. At the same time, send people to surround the bedrooms of the concubines and princes and princesses in other palaces. No one can come out and walk around without my order!"

"Yes, my queen."

Soon, the imperial concubine's palace was full of blood. Overnight, the ghost messenger who came to claim her life was probably exhausted to death.

As for the other people in the palace, they were also scared to death when they heard the news. Who could have thought that the queen, who looked kind and benevolent on weekdays, would actually order the massacre of the people in the palace. Hundreds of lives turned into blood in an instant. How could people not be afraid?

The palace was full of blood and killing, and people outside the palace were not idle either.

As soon as the news of the emperor's death came out, the Prime Minister's Mansion and the General's Mansion immediately dispatched people. They did not rush to the Fourth Prince's or the Seventh Prince's Mansion, but to the small courtyard where the former crown prince Fu Yanhui was.

Compared with the civil strife, they were more worried about the disaster of the previous dynasty.

If he really rebelled against Daxing, what would they do!

At the same time, during this period, they also arranged people outside the mansions of the internal thieves in the court who they had found out through Fu Yanhui. Gu Shaoyu gave an order to arrest those who should be arrested, imprison those who should be imprisoned, and kill those who should be killed.

General's Mansion, Xitang Courtyard

Du Jingyi hadn't fallen asleep since she woke up. Although there was no big noise outside, she was still very worried.

When Gu Shaoyu left, she specially put on a golden soft armor for him. She bought that thing at a high price, so it was of course useful at this time. Otherwise, if he was not careful, he would be in danger if he was not careful.

The moonlight was bright, but also frighteningly quiet.

It was already April, but Du Jingyi felt the night was chilly. Yingtao gave her a thicker coat, and then lit two more palace lanterns before speaking.

"Madam, you can't sleep. I'll talk to you. It's better than thinking about things alone."

"You can always sense my thoughts."

Then Du Jingyi patted the seat in front of her and asked her to sit down.

There was no one else here, so Yingtao was not polite. She sat down and chatted with her own wife as usual.

"I'm afraid the general will be busy these days."

"When I sent him away just now, he said that he would not be back for a few days at the least, or half a month at the most, so we have to guard the door well."

"Don't worry, Madam. Those who dare to break into the general's mansion must be desperate."

Although he said so, Du Jingyi was still a little worried in his heart. After all, this incident happened unexpectedly. If someone reacted, or if there were fish that slipped through the net, it was not impossible for them to really rush to the general's mansion.
