368. People who drink soup without knowing the truth(1/2)

"Hua Ran, I'll give you the throne, how about it?"

"The mother and son minister have limited abilities, so I may not be able to take on this important task."

Ruyan held three incense sticks in his hand, bowed his head slightly, and inserted it into the incense burner.

The smoke curled like smoke and sighed: "Huating, you rest in peace underground, my mother will avenge you."

After the words came, Ruyan slowly turned around, and Qin Huaran, who was kneeling on the ground, immediately lowered her head.

"Get up." Ruyan sat down, "Just just said casually, you are indeed not suitable for this throne."

Qin Huaran breathed a sigh of relief, stood up, looking at her nose and heart.

"What do you think about the current situation?" Ruyan asked.

Qin Huaran's heart rose again, she thought for a moment, and replied respectfully: "Mother Queen, Qin Zheng's sect is crazy, and I'm afraid it will not end well next."

"Crazy?" Ruyan smiled, "But I always feel that even if that person is different from before, he will not be like this."

"The Queen Mother's meaning is..." Qin Huaran was puzzled.

"From beginning to end, I didn't even see Qin Zheng's shadow. Yue You claimed that Qin Zheng's two sons were acting in secret. If Qin Zheng had such a big son, it would definitely not have been born for him. I would be relieved." Ruyan said quietly.

Qin Huaran didn't know much about the hatred between Ruyi and Ruyan sisters, so she didn't dare to talk too much.

"What do you think we should do to win this game back?" Ruyan looked at Qin Huaran and asked.

Qin Huaran's expression frowned and said, "My Queen, I think that if we fight head-on, we will not lose. The other party has the advantage because we have been hiding in the dark and attacking, and it is hard to guard against it. Now we have heard of the identities of those people. If they can be seen and dealt with, it will be less difficult."

Ruyan nodded gently: "This time, you have the point."

"My son is stupid and can't think of how to get them out of the dark?" Qin Huaran shook her head slightly.

Ruyan turned around and looked at the tablet she offered to Qin Huating, and her voice was soft: "It's simple. They just wanted the throne of Qin, so they gave it to me."

Qin Huaran looked shocked: "The Queen Mother wants to give up the throne? Then we..."

Ruyan's lips curled a chill smile: "If the traitors are not eliminated, there will be no peace. This is just a means, not a result. As long as they appear, and we don't even need to do anything, Yu Lin will take revenge wildly. After the people who should be solved are dealt with, Qin still belongs to us. Now, we should avoid the limelight and cannot be led by those people anymore."

Qin Huaran looked slightly happy: "The Queen Mother is wise!"

After Qin Huating died, Qin State thought that Ruyan would return to the throne next.

Regarding the assassination of Qin Huating, many people suspected that it was done by Qin Zheng because of Ruyan's previous exaggeration.

But what happened next was shocking again!

The Empress Dowager issued an imperial edict, but she was not present, and the eunuch in the palace read it out during the morning court.

Not long ago, he claimed that Qin Zheng colluded with aliens and intended to disrupt Qin Ruyan, and his tone changed drastically. In the imperial edict, he did not mention the previous baseless accusations, nor did he blame Qin Huating's death on Qin Zheng. He only said that Qin Zheng was the orthodox descendant of the Qin royal family and the only candidate for the throne at present. He hoped that all the ministers would do their best to assist.

The old eunuch finished promulgation and a needle fell from the hall could be heard.

All the officials looked at each other, their faces strange.

Regardless of whether Qin Zheng colluded with foreigners or whether Ruyan made up the fabrication of Qin Huating or whether Qin Zheng killed him, such a thing was nothing within the royal family.

Ruyan did have the power to issue such an imperial edict, and it was effective. All officials had no reason to oppose Qin Zheng as the emperor because he was justified.

But where is the human? Where is the new emperor Qinzheng?

An official asked, and the old eunuch shook his head: "The Empress Dowager only ordered the slave to announce the imperial edict, but I don't know anything else." He left after the words.

The officials waited for a long time, but without any further information, so they left the palace and returned to their homes. They muttered in their hearts about what would happen to Qin State next.

Such a major change in the throne spreads with lightning speed.

The people were shocked and had a question in their hearts, where is Qin Zheng?

Song Qingyu, who came back from buying vegetables on the street, brought back the latest news.

Ye Ling raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "I really have some brains to be able to survive the bitch."

"Ruyan thinks that this move will lead us to appear? It's too naive." Song Qingyu shook his head slightly.

"But if we don't show up, the next stalemate will be the one who can't calm down first. For her, hiding will naturally have more initiative. This is indeed the case." Ye Ling said.

"Then what do you mean?" Song Qingyu asked.

Ye Ling shook his head: "Watch for a few more days. Now we are not the only ones and Ruyan. Even if the Yu family will not move before we appear, there are other people. Ruyan is sure that Qin Huating died at our hands, but this is not the case."

Song Qingyu nodded gently: "The person who killed Qin Huating may be Shangguan Ming or not. Since he has taken action, he will not disappear next, so there must be follow-up actions. Just right, let's see who it is. But Ruyan won't run away, right?"

"No. She set a trap and waited for us to jump, so she was naturally waiting for an opportunity to take action in secret." Ye Ling said, "Don't worry, Ah Heng went to the Yu family, dragging Yu Lin here is also buying time for him. Let's play slowly with Ruyan."

Three days later.

Qin Zheng nominally became the new emperor of Qin, but he did not appear for a long time. Ruyan also said that he was sick and could not see anyone.

The people in the Qin Dynasty were in a state of mind, but for a while, there would be no big storm. Everyone was waiting and not daring to emerge.

Kaiyuan City Yu Mansion.

Shangguan Ming sat in the garden pavilion and listened to his subordinates' reports, but there was no situation.

Shangguan Ming thought: "Is Ruyan's mother and daughter still in the palace?"

The subordinate responded respectfully: "The Yaochi Palace where Ruyan and his daughter live is kept tightly and the master told him not to alert the snake, and it is temporarily unsure whether they are inside."

"Can the Yu family be found?" Shangguan Ming asked.

The subordinate shook his head: "No trace of the Yu family in Kaiyuan City was found."

Shangguan Ming was silent for a moment and said, "Go and prepare, do something tonight and burn the Yaochi Palace."

That night, the palace was in flames.

Shangguan Ming's subordinates are good at archery techniques, and the fire-burning arrows are constantly shooting into the Yaochi Palace.

The night wind assisted the fire, and Yaochi Palace quickly turned into a sea of ​​fire, and no one escaped from it.

Shangguan Ming's subordinates scattered after firing arrows like before.

But this time, it's not that easy.

Ruyan and her two daughters were not in Yaochi Palace, but she set up a net of heaven and earth outside. Because of the lessons of Chu Mingze's rescue, Ruyan set the range of the trap very large, and when the first rocket was shot at Yaochi Palace, she began to close the net.

The key point is that Yu Lin was also staring in the dark, and these people were waiting for them. This time he came to Qin to take revenge, and he only brought two elders on the surface, but in fact, there were many masters in secret to protect him.

The Yanwei, the masters of the Yu family, appeared one after another, and intercepted the archers with clear goals.

If you can't beat it, you can always escape this situation. There are conditions. Shangguan Ming's people are not stronger than Yanwei and the masters of the Yu family. They can only be considered equivalent, but they lose in terms of number of people.

In the end, only one of Shangguan Ming's six subordinates escaped from the Qin Palace and the other five were captured.

Of course, Shangguan Ming would not take risks with himself, and he was still in Kaiyuan City Yu Mansion and other news.

The fire in Yaochi Palace could no longer be extinguished, and Ruyan didn't care. Finally, she gained something and saw Yu Lin again.

Qin Huafei did not show up, Ruyan only brought Qin Huaran by her side.

Next to Yu Lin is Yu Pi, the second elder of the Yu family.

In front of them were five seriously injured but alive assassins.

They are all men, wearing night clothes and black cloth masks. In addition to the same bows and arrows, they also have exactly the same long swords.

"Master Yu, come and interrogate." Ruyan was polite.

Yu Lin's eyes signaled, Yu Pi went forward and pulled away all the black cloths covered with faces of the five assassins. He looked similar in age, all in his twenties.

Yu Pi took a bow and arrow, and a long sword, and presented it to Yu Lin for a look.

These two weapons are well-made and not shoddy, but there is nothing iconic on them.

"Search your body." Yu Lin ordered.

As soon as he finished speaking, an assassin saw an obvious wrong look, which means that the direction is right.

Yu Pi approached the most injured assassin who was already in a coma. The two assassins next to him suddenly jumped up and attacked him!

Yu Lin snorted coldly, stretched out his hand, and two poisonous darts pierced through the necks of the two assassins!

The assassin fell to the ground, Yu Pi stripped one of the clothes, turned his body over, and suddenly widened his eyes!

"Have you discovered it?" Yu Lin asked.

Yu Pi grabbed the assassin and pointed his naked back at Yu Lin: "Master, please see."

Yu Lin saw the tattoo on the assassin's back close to his right shoulder, frowned hard, got up and walked closer, and took off the clothes of the other four assassins with his own hands. The same position, the same tattoo!

Ruyan walked over with an inexplicable look: "Haitanghua? The head of the Yu family knows the origin of these people?"

Ruyan was thinking, could it be some killer organization that Qin Zheng invited? She had never heard of the forces that used Haitang as the mark, but looking at Yu Lin's expression, she seemed to know who it was.

"Shangguan Ming!" Yu Lin clenched his fists and his eyes were cold.

Ruyan was stunned: "Young Master Shangguan? This... what Master Yu means is that these people were sent by him?"

"This crabapple is the symbol of the Shangguan family!" Yu Lin said coldly.

Ruyan was stunned for a moment: "Why did Young Master Shangguan attack me? We have no grievances or grudges."

"Mom, Qin Zheng's son pretends to be a member of the Shangguan tribe. Could it be that they are from the same group?" Qin Huaran frowned.
