Chapter 248: What a big pit
Su Qing suddenly felt as if he had been thrown back to the ground by someone, and in an instant, all his divine consciousness returned to its original position, and the people around him were all waving weapons at them with a fierce light on their faces.
There were countless corpses on the ground, she frowned, bent down to pick up a long knife, and fought her back to back with Xiao Jingchen.
Soon Xiao Jue came to support with the shadow guards, most of the men in black were killed and wounded, and the rest knew that there was no chance of winning, the prince was dead, and they took the initiative to drop their weapons and prepare to surrender.
But Xiao Jingchen didn't plan to let them go, his body was covered with blood in the dark night, and those gloomy eyes made everyone shudder.
"Kill them. At the sound of an order, the long knives in their hands were waved at the same time.
The next second the world fell silent.
"Lord Wang, princess, are you okay?" After solving everyone, Xiao Jue sent shadow guards to search around, never letting anyone go.
Xiao Jingchen dropped the scimitar in his hand and looked back at Su Qing, with a look of surprise, disbelief and a little distress in his eyes.
She was dressed in white clothes that were almost red with blood, and she stood there a little numbly, until she heard Xiao Jingchen call her, and she slowly came back to her senses.
"Lord, I'm fine, the prince is dead. ”
Xiao Jue was slightly stunned before he realized what had happened just now, no wonder he found that something was not quite right with the prince as soon as he came.
Xiao Jingchen walked to Su Qing's side and hugged her tightly into his arms, blocking her vision, and then turned his head to look at Xiao Jue.
"Burn them all, and don't leave any of them behind!"
Then he took Su Qing back to the room and asked people to bring hot water over to help her wash off the blood stains on her body.
The first bucket of water almost completely turned into a bucket of bloody water, and it took two more washes for the water to clear.
"Lord Wang, I'm a little tired. Su Qing changed into clean clothes, the room was brightly lit, the brazier was burning brightly, and it was warm and drowsy.
Su Qing let himself lean on Xiao Jingchen like a boneless person.
"Sleep when you're tired, I'll watch over you here, and I'll not go anywhere. Xiao Jingchen carried her to the side of the bed and put her down gently, and imprinted a kiss on her forehead.
Su Qing stretched out his hand and grabbed his hand and interlocked his fingers: "The prince wants to talk and count, and he is not allowed to go anywhere." ”
Hearing her coquettish tone, Xiao Jingchen couldn't help but hook the corners of her lips, and was about to go back to her, but when she lowered her head, she had already closed her eyes and fell asleep.
Maybe she knew that Xiao Jingchen would guard her, she slept very deeply this night, and there was endless darkness in her dreams, she closed her eyes and didn't look at it, she didn't think about it, anyway, the sky would always be bright.
Xiao Jingchen guarded her by the bed until she fell asleep, and her fingers loosened slightly, then she gently pulled out her hand and covered her with the quilt and walked out of the door.
Xiao Jue was waiting outside, there was a smell of burning in the air, and he frowned: "How is it?"
"The prince's body has not been found, presumably someone took advantage of the chaos to take him away, and I have sent someone to track him down as soon as possible. ”
Xiao Jue lowered his head, thinking that Xiao Jingchen would be angry, but he heard him say lightly.
"It's all right, let them take it back, and treat it as a gift from the king. ”
As soon as the prince died outside, Xiao Jingchen felt a burst of joy just thinking of the expressions of those people in the palace.
What he was worried about now was Su Qing, although she had played a lot of tricks since they met, she had never been involved in human life.
He can empathize with the feeling of killing people for the first time, and Xiao Jingchen vaguely remembers that the first time he killed was when he was ten years old, killing an assassin who wanted to kidnap him.
Although he was exposed to his father all day long, killing people on the battlefield was the norm, and if you didn't kill someone, you would be killed.
But he still vividly remembers the feeling of seeing a man die in front of him, with his blood still on his hands.
It's the same as Su Qing's reaction after killing Chu Yi just now, not to mention that she is still a doctor.
There was a gust of wind outside, and Xiao Jue whispered a reminder on the side: "Lord Wang, go in, it's snowing outside again." ”
Su Qing slept until noon the next day, and when she woke up, the room was quiet, she lifted the quilt and went to bed barefoot, and saw a figure sitting by the fire.
Qingshuang happened to come in from outside, and when she saw her waking up, she hurriedly came over to serve, and Xiao Jingchen also got up from the stove and walked over to her.
"How's your sleep?
"Well, no dreams. Su Qing nodded lightly, and her eyes fell on Xiao Jingchen's somewhat pale face: "Was the prince injured last night?" let me help you take a look." ”
"I'm fine, some minor injuries have been treated, are you hungry? I'll let them prepare something to eat. ”
Xiao Jingchen tried his best not to mention last night's incident, but Su Qing took the initiative to speak, and even with a shallow smile on his face, he covered his stomach and nodded.
"Some are hungry and want to eat fish, preferably steamed. ”
It's a good thing that you can still eat, Xiao Jingchen nodded and turned around and ordered outside the door: "Go and let the kitchen prepare." ”
looked down again and saw that Su Qing didn't even wear shoes, bent down and picked her up and put her back on the side of the bed: "If you feel tired, sleep for a while, it's snowing outside, and when the snow stops, we'll go back to Northern Zhou City." ”
"It's snowing again?" Su Qing's eyes lit up, and she quickly put on her shoes and clothes and ran to the door.
The heavy snow had fallen in the middle of the night, and now it had become lighter, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the ground, covering the traces of last night as if nothing had happened.
On the other side, a carriage was running wildly on the way back to Beijing, and Chu Yi on the car was dying.
I vaguely heard someone talking outside: "It's snowing so much, the road in front of me is blocked, and I can't walk......
"In any case, we must be sent back to the capital as soon as possible, the prince's situation cannot be delayed any longer, if something happens......" Someone was arguing outside, and the voice was getting farther and farther away.
I don't know when the car window opened, Chu Yi saw a snowflake floating in and falling on him, and it quickly disappeared.
Now he's going to disappear into this world like these snowflakes......
It had been several days since the news of Chu Yi's death reached Liu Guifei's ears, and she was drinking a cup of ginseng tea, when she heard the news, she was shocked, and she didn't realize that the hot deep tea was spilled on her body.
"What do you say? Say it again!"
"Guifei Niangniang, the crown prince is ...... He is gone......" The messenger had to repeat it again.
Liu Guifei instantly slammed the things in her hand on the ground like a mad lion: "You are talking nonsense! How could something happen to the prince? Did you hide him and threaten me? Quickly hand him over! This palace can spare your life!"
"Mother, Mother's Day, how dare we use such a big thing to talk nonsense in front of you......"
"I don't believe it! I don't believe it! Why didn't you die? He won't die! He won't die!" Liu Guifei kept repeating as if she was crazy, and the whole person seemed to have lost her mind, if it weren't for the palace maid around her, she didn't know what she would do.
