Turbulent Times Chapter 805: Empress Xiao’s killing intent
All the masters were shocked, but before they could do anything, another master screamed, his body convulsed and fell to the ground, his body stiffened and died.
But all the masters can only see that they should have died of poisoning, but they don't know how the two of them were poisoned. The unknown and invisible things are the most frightening. Poison name, the faces of all the masters suddenly became extremely ugly, and their hearts were full of fear, so that Wang Junlin fell to the ground from mid-air, and they didn't dare to go forward to attack, but retreated instinctively. Apparently they thought it was the poisonous technique of the poisonous general Wang Junlin.
But they didn't dare to get close, they could attack from a distance, a roar like thunder suddenly sounded behind the group of masters, Wang Junlin turned his head and looked, a big man with a beard who was strong and tall like an iron tower waved his hand Throwing a heavy iron spear, it shot at him like a shooting star.
This man's arms and arms were astonishingly strong, Wang Junlin didn't dare to be negligent, he gathered strength in a spiral, retracted and stretched his right foot, and pointed towards the tip of the spear.
"Peng!"
The heavy spear flew obliquely, Wang Junlin sped up his movement, shot the hook lock again, changed direction, and threw it like a big bird towards the most lush garden in the woods outside the wall in the distance. It was the three people who screamed, died strangely, and their bodies became stiff. The others were horrified, how dare they catch up again. The King of Assassins wanted to catch up, but Nie Xiaoyu's divine arrow shot at him again, forcing him to retreat again.
"What is this?"
"It was this ghost thing that bit people to death."
Finally, someone saw a golden shadow emerge from under a corpse, frantically waving the long sword in his hand with a look of fear, but the golden shadow was too fast, and he couldn't strike at all. It wasn't until several people attacked the golden shadow at the same time that one person slashed at the golden shadow, but it was like cutting on steel. Finally seeing its true face, it was clearly a small golden snake with a long and thick **** of an adult. All the masters were about to continue to attack, but the little golden snake had disappeared into the garden next to it, and no one dared to chase after it for a while.

…
The second half of the palace where the queen is now is divided into several small palaces, each of which is magnificently decorated, with a silver chandelier from the Western Regions hanging in the middle, which was inlaid by skilled craftsmen of the Sui Dynasty. The night is full of pearls and gemstones. Under the candlelight, the gemstones on the chandelier are dazzling and beautiful.
In every corner around the palace, there are exquisite porcelain, or vases, or containers. Each piece of porcelain is like ice and jade, flowing with jade-like crystals under the light. The palace is covered with thick Persian rugs, with two ivory couches in the middle, covered with brocade cushions.
At this time, under the light of bright gemstones, Empress Xiao of the Sui Empire was pacing back and forth with her hands behind her back. Her hair was combed into a half-moon bun, with gemstones dotted between the black hair, and a long jasper hairpin was worn in the bun. The face is slender and pretty, with a light layer of powder.
She was wearing a very fitting yellow brocade dress, on which was embroidered a picture of birds and phoenixes with gold thread. Although she was thirty-five and had three children, she kept her figure in very good shape. Well, slender and tall, with undulating curves, looks graceful, and is full of the charm of a mature woman.
There was still half an hour before the banquet, Yang Guang was tired because he was too late to review the memorial last night, so he went to the palace next door to take a nap at this time, while Empress Xiao paced back and forth in the palace, waiting for a reply.
One year ago, Wang Junlin saved the life of Emperor Yang Guang in Renshou Palace. Empress Xiao has always been very grateful to him. Immediately after Wang Junlin went north to hunt down Han Wang Yang Liang, suppress Gao Ying and other rebels, and came back soon. Not to mention helping Yang Guang to move the capital to Luoyang, he also severely damaged the Guanlongmen clan. These things directly stabilized the emperor's rule of the country.
But for a woman, her husband is not the most important thing. The most important thing in her heart is her children. Empress Xiao gave birth to two sons and a daughter. Among them, she loves the second son Yang Hao the most. Clever and cute, handsome and unrestrained, more importantly, Yang Hao resembles her father Yang Guang.
Everyone said that Yang Wei looked like his father, but Empress Xiao knew in her heart that her second son actually looked exactly like her father, Xiao Kui, Emperor Xiaoming of Xiliang.
Although Empress Xiao had a difficult life when she was young, she is a Chinese princess after all. She has a special feeling for her homeland, but she also knows that her homeland is like a moon in water and cannot be returned. The longing for the motherland is pinned on his son, and he loves his second son Yang Hao very much.
It was Empress Xiao's over-doting and arrogance that made Yang Hao become like a wild horse that had run wild, becoming more and more unrestrained, and eventually became the chief villain in the capital. Not only did he not reprimand, but he covered it up for him, suppressed him, and no one was allowed to mention these things to Yang Guang. It was his mother's connivance and support that made Yang Hao even more unscrupulous, and even dared to rob people outside the city in broad daylight. female.
It can be said that Empress Xiao is Yang Hao's backer. When Yang Hao cried to his mother, Empress Xiao's impression of Wang Junlin changed. It was no longer gratitude, but a kind of disgust and hatred. I mean, when Yang Hao said that Wang Junlin wanted to kill her, Empress Xiao believed it, because she knew that the eldest son Yang Zhao had a good relationship with Wang Junlin, and Yang Hao was a great threat to Yang Zhao's crown prince. The image of the murderer in the eyes of the world, Empress Xiao has no doubt that Wang Junlin really wants to kill her favorite second son Yang Hao. In fact, Wang Junlin really wanted Yang Hao to die, but he would never do it himself. His plan was for Yang Hao to kill himself stupidly, because this is how Yang Hao ended up in history.
Empress Xiao felt very sad after hearing Yang Hao's words. The bad relationship between her two sons has always been her heart disease. Moreover, he believes that blood is thicker than water, and brotherhood is deep, which is natural, so he feels that the discord between the two brothers is largely caused by their subordinates, especially Wang Junlin, whose image in the hearts of the world is not very good. It is easy to be seen as a vicious person.
Although Yang Hao is stupid, but because he was close to his mother since he was a child, he has a good understanding of Empress Xiao's mind and personality. Mutual support.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Empress Xiao only has two sons. Of course, she hopes that the elder brother will love the younger brother, and the younger brother will respect the elder brother. This is the greatest wish of a mother, although she also knows that there is a struggle for the throne between the brothers. But her wish is this, she hopes that her two sons will have brotherhood, especially after she has witnessed the brotherhood between her husband and several brothers, she hopes that her children will not follow in the footsteps of their elders.
