Seeing that Feng Yu's blade was about to land on the emperor's neck, Gu Mingxuan finally made his move. He moved his wrist in a flash like a bolt of lightning, and with a flick of his wrist, he blocked Feng Yu's short blade.
Feng Yu did not expect Cheng Ya Jin to suddenly appear out of nowhere. He glared at Gu Mingxuan and said, "You've heard what this damned Emperor has done, why are you still helping him?"
Gu Mingxuan's expression was cold: The prince is guilty of crimes with the commoners, the Son of Heaven is guilty as well, his crimes should not be judged by you.
Feng Yu was obviously too lazy to waste words with him, with a flip of his wrist, the dagger went from one hand to the other, quickly and ruthlessly slicing towards the Emperor's vitals.
At this time, Jiang Zimu finally reacted as well. He took two steps forward as he entangled himself with Feng Yu.
No matter how good his wind and rain martial arts were, it was difficult for two fists to contend against four hands. After a few rounds, he was finally unable to hold on any longer.
Turning around, Feng Yu suddenly grabbed Mu Zhihuan with all his might. The dagger was held against her neck: "Don't move!"
These words were clearly directed at Gu Mingxuan, and in practically an instant, Gu Mingxuan stopped his attack, and also grabbed onto Jiang Zimu who was about to rush forward.
"Choose. Do you want this girl or him?"
Jiang Zimu did not think that Feng Yu would actually do such a thing. He glanced at Gu Mingxuan, and just as he was about to say something, he was interrupted by Gu Mingxuan:
"What's the choice?" Number one, I am not someone from the Great Wei. Honestly speaking, the life and death of the Emperor has nothing to do with me. I have only come here to prevent the two nations from fighting each other. "
"Secondly, the person you have in your hands isn't even the least bit related to me. What right do you have to think that she can rival the Emperor?"
Although he said that, Gu Mingxuan took a step back, giving way to the dying Emperor.
Feng Yu looked at Gu Mingxuan, then looked at the emperor, and suddenly started laughing in a low voice:
"Well said, then what about my two lives?"
Just as he finished speaking, a commotion suddenly occurred in the vicinity of the palace, the wooden door suddenly burst open, a group of people rushed in, Feng Yu and the rest stood in the center.
Instantly, Feng Yu went from a hunter to a hunter.
Looking at the black mass of people around him, the smile on Feng Yu's face grew even wider: "I originally thought that just by stopping this old granny, you wouldn't be able to create any waves. I never thought that you still had some ability."
Mu Zhihuan knew that he was the one who said these words to her, and she glanced at him out of the corner of her eyes.
Mu Zhihuan clearly saw from his eyes that there was nothing left to live for, and was shocked. Mu Zhihuan looked at Feng Yu with his eyes continuously.
"I just want to live. My son is still so young, so I want to grow up with him."
This was Mu Zhihuan reminding Feng Yu about their previous agreement.
"Heh …" If Mu Yanzhi knew that even if his daughter lost her memories, she wouldn't lose face for Old Mu. Even if she was in the underworld, she would still feel comforted. "
These words made Mu Zhihuan's heart sink.
Just as she was about to say something, the silent Gu Mingxuan suddenly made a move. With a push of his wrist, a dart flew quickly and accurately towards Feng Yu's chest.
Seemingly in an instant, Feng Yu spat out a black bloodstain from his mouth, and then, with round eyes, he handsome fell to the ground.
By the time Mu Zhihuan had reacted and probed for his breath, Feng Yu was already dead.
Mu Zhihuan suddenly turned around to look at Gu Mingxuan, but saw something in that pair of pitch black eyes.
The anger that filled his heart turned into doubt, and a trace of uncertainty slowly surged up in his heart.
Gu Mingxuan gave her a comforting look, and Mu Zhihuan's heart finally relaxed a little.
It just so happened that at this time, Jiang Zisu was able to rush over with his men. Seeing that Mu Zhihuan was fine, the nervousness in his eyes finally lessened.
He took a step forward and protected Mu Zhihuan behind him, then used his feet to kick Feng Yu. When he did not find anything, he let his men carry Feng Yu's body down.
It was only then that Jiang Zisu, who cleared the atmosphere, came forward and knelt in front of the Emperor's bed. "This son has come too late, and caused Royal Father to be frightened."
The king was so weak that he could barely lift his hand. He coughed and said, "It has been hard on you and the crown prince. I am tired of discussing this matter another day."
After saying that, he spat out another mouthful of blood. Jiang Zisu and Jiang Zimu looked at each other: "Yes."
It was only until Mu Zhihuan, who was pulled back to the Duke Palace that she realized what had happened. She tugged at Jiang Zisu's arm. If you guys have such power, why didn't you stop Feng Yu from the beginning? "
Jiang Zisu opened the curtain vigilantly to look outside, he lowered his voice and said:
"It's Gu Mingxuan. He wants to use this opportunity to return the General Mu's innocence."
Mu Zhihuan was startled, she never thought that Gu Mingxuan would actually care about this kind of thing?
Seeing that Mu Zhihuan was surprised, Jiang Zisu's eyes darkened slightly. "As for the other things, you don't need to know."
Jiang Zisu's expression was so serious, Mu Zhihuan frowned, she could vaguely guess what it was.
This meant that Feng Yu had drugged him with his medicine, but he had clearly told Gu Mingxuan about this matter a long time ago.
She didn't believe that just based on Gu Mingxuan and Jiang Zisu's abilities alone, they wouldn't be able to prevent the Emperor from being poisoned.
Jiang Zimu wanted to use this opportunity to usurp his position, and just like he had said, he did not care who the emperor of this country was. He only cared if the borders of the two countries were safe, so helping Jiang Zimu was a good thing.
Since the two of them shared a secret, they would be even more wary of each other. It would only bring benefits to the relationship between the two countries.
Furthermore, he also exposed what the Emperor did to the General Mu, which was killing three birds with one stone.
Thinking about this, Mu Zhihuan felt a chill down her spine. It had only been a few days since the matter had ended, and these three people had already formulated such a meticulous plan.
Furthermore, doing it in such a watertight manner made Mu Zhihuan unable to help herself from feeling the fact that she had teleported herself once again.
Seeing that Mu Zhihuan's expression wasn't good, Jiang Zisu knew that she had probably guessed it.
But no one mentioned anything, the two of them sat quietly in the carriage, and after a long while, Jiang Zisu finally opened his mouth:
"Feng Yu, I've already called some people to send him to Gu Mingxuan's residence, but in order to avoid being bothered by others, it's better that you don't go. Once Feng Yu is done, I'll go with you."
Mu Zhihuan was startled, so it turned out that they had already discussed this matter.
The feeling of being kept in the dark made Mu Zhihuan a little unhappy, so she only let out a little "oh".
Seeing Mu Zhihuan's exhausted look, Jiang Zisu wanted to open his mouth to say something, but the carriage suddenly stopped.
Opening the curtain, he saw that they had already arrived at the Duke Palace. At the entrance, a white and tender Tuanzi was looking in his direction with great anticipation.
