Chapter 271: Thrilling
"See Your Majesty—"
Chu Yunsheng's fingertips pressed on the dagger, and before he could make any action, at this moment, there was a knocking sound from under the city tower. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although it is not large, it is enough for everyone present to hear it clearly.
And when he heard these four words, Chu Yunsheng's heart was also cold.
He Rong came to the royal tomb?
And right now under the city!
This is something she never expected, and what is he doing here at this time?!
He is such a meticulous person, if he finds out the clue, then their whole plan may fail!
However, now that the plan is already underway, it is impossible to interrupt it, so what should I do?
For a while, many thoughts crossed Chu Yunsheng's mind.
And at the same time as hearing this bow, those Qin Jiajun who were standing around her and preparing to make a move like her were also very tacitly enduring their temperament, and they stood silently in place like Chu Yunsheng.
At this time, I only heard the captain of the guard on the opposite side who was about to pass by Chu Yunsheng say, "Huh, Your Majesty passed by here, isn't it going to the interrogation room?"
His voice was not loud, it was originally his own muttering, but in Chu Yunsheng's ears, it was tantamount to a boulder being thrown into the surface of the lake that had just disturbed a pool of ripples, and it instantly made waves again.
With uneasiness in her heart, she still suppressed her emotions on her face, and deliberately suppressed her originally slender voice and said: "Your Majesty, how could you go to a place like the interrogation room." ”
She deliberately lowered her voice by two points, so that the captain of the Zhao Army guard on the opposite side could hear it, without arousing his suspicion.
Sure enough, after hearing Chu Yunsheng's words, he didn't even raise his head, but there was a trace of disdain for the little people who had no knowledge of the little people in his eyes, and said: "Out of this west turn, there are only barracks and interrogation rooms, is it possible that Your Majesty will go to see the team to practice in the middle of the night?!"
Saying this, he didn't look at Chu Yunsheng, and directly lifted his steps and walked out.
At this time, the sound of bowing outside had also stopped, although Chu Yunsheng was not sure where He Rong was going, but when he heard no movement outside, he also estimated that he had already walked away at this time, and he didn't even come up to the city.
Therefore, at this time, her wrist flicked, and the dagger tied to the inside of her arm gently slid down to her palm again, and at this time, the leader of Zhao Jun had already crossed her shoulder, and she was about to walk outside.
To kill, or not to kill?
Everything was in Chu Yunsheng's thoughts.
If she wants to kill, she must use the fastest movements, and cooperate with these old Qin army troops around her, so that the dozen or so Zhao army guards in this stone room will be wiped out in an instant, and she must also make sure that the other Zhao army soldiers not far away will hear the movement, which is too risky.
However, if they are not killed, once this person returns to the barracks and notices that something is wrong, or finds any clues, it may cause them great trouble, and it is also too risky.
For a while, Chu Yunsheng made a difficulty, however, her difficulty was only in the blink of an eye, and the Qin family soldier who was pretending to be the captain of their team of guards in front turned his eyes to look at Chu Yunsheng, and at the same time, Chu Yunsheng was also raising his eyes to look at him, and he saw that he had an inquiry in his eyes.
They were all waiting for her decision.
At the moment when Chu Yunsheng hesitated, this Zhao army guard had already taken a step and walked to the door, and at this time, his body was stunned, and then he saw him turn his eyes, and looked at the Qin family army behind Chu Yunsheng before suspiciously: "Huh, the more I look at you, the more I feel as if I have seen it somewhere, you ......"
He hadn't finished his sentence, but there was already a light of surprise in his eyes, and his lips were about to expand and his lips opened subconsciously.
At this moment, Chu Yunsheng's reaction was also extremely fast, she quickly dodged to this person, raised her hand to cover this person's mouth and nose, and the dagger in her right hand had already fallen into the palm of her hand, and with just one raise of her hand, she cut this person's throat.
At the same time, these old Qin family army troops they brought were also very cooperative, and at the moment when Chu Yunsheng flashed out, the Zhao soldiers who followed behind this Zhao army commander in the stone room and had not yet figured out what the situation was only felt cold on their necks, and the next moment, their mouths were also covered by people until they swallowed their last breath.
Everyone's movements are quite tacitly coordinated, and they are done in one go.
At the same time, at the moment when Chu Yunsheng flashed out, Su Yun also followed Chu Yunsheng's steps and arrived at the door one step faster than Chu Yunsheng, and raised her hand to push half of the body of the captain Chu Yunsheng who was about to kill into the room, and then she stood on the stone ridge, using her body to cover the sword light and sword shadow that happened in the room at this moment.
Everything happened in the blink of an eye, and some of the Zhao soldiers who reacted quickly didn't have time to exclaim, let alone pull out the saber at their waists, and fell in a pool of blood.
After doing all this, Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes and looked at the Qin family army man who had just replied to this Zhao army commander and said, "Thanks to you just now." ”
Hearing this, an embarrassed blush appeared on the man's simple face, and he raised his hand and scratched his head and smiled: "Thank you for the compliment." ”
Chu Yunsheng didn't say anything more, after all, time was too important for them now.
And at this time, Su Yun had already taken out her unique "Bone Turning Powder" from her sleeve , and sprinkled them on the corpses of these Zhao Jun who were still arrogant just now, and after a short time, there was only a large pool of blood and a few empty robes and white bones left on the ground, and a few Qin Jiajun quickly wrapped these bones with blood on the ground robes, and then hid them in a corner of the stone room, and the rest of the clothes were used to wipe the blood stains on the ground, but there was too much blood, and it couldn't be wiped off for a while, fortunately, the weather is hot now, coupled with the scorching wind at night, I believe that it will not be long before this place will return to its original appearance。
When he had done all this, Chu Yunsheng walked behind Su Yun, who was listening to the movement outside at the door, and said softly, "Is there anything wrong?"
Hearing this, Su Yun turned around, and then lowered his voice and said, "King Zhao seems to be under the city tower and has not left. ”
The voice was very low, but just this sentence was enough to make the expressions of everyone present tighten, especially Chu Yunsheng, she knew how powerful He Rong was, if He Rong wanted to climb on top of this city at this time, with his acuity, he would definitely find out that something was wrong, and at that time, what should I do?!
Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng turned his eyes to look at Su Yundao and said, "You come in first, I'll go out and have a look." ”
As he spoke, without waiting for Su Yun to answer, Chu Yunsheng took advantage of the shadows outside the stone chamber to cover up the shadow outside the stone chamber near the edge of the city, and quietly glanced down.
And this glance almost made her heart miss a beat.
He Rong is really standing under this city!
With just one glance, Chu Yunsheng quickly retracted his head, shrank his body back into a dark corner, and then let go of his six senses to listen to what He Rong was saying below.
And just Chu Yunsheng's glance made He Rong, who was talking to a close minister who was chasing after him, look stunned.
He subconsciously raised his eyes and looked at the corner where Chu Yunsheng had just leaned out of his gaze, only to see that it was pitch black, except for a small window in the stone room of the garrison, which revealed the light that was clearly extinguished, and there was nothing else, so he withdrew his gaze.
However, I felt a faint uneasiness in my heart, but I couldn't tell where the uneasiness came from.
"Your Majesty?"
The close minister called twice before he brought He Rong, who was in deep thought, back to his senses.
He Rong raised his eyes and looked at this close minister who was chasing him here in a hurry, and said impatiently: "You stopped Gu, what is the important thing to report?"
Hearing this, the close minister immediately bent down, bowed to He Rong again and again and said happily: "Congratulations to Your Majesty, Congratulations to Your Majesty, just now the imperial doctor has diagnosed the pulse of the queen's mother, Niangniang is indeed pregnant with a dragon heir, and has been pregnant for more than two months, the imperial doctor said, Niangniang's body is not very good, the conditioning of the previous days has only improved, and now it is running like this, some of the fetal gas is moving, so please Your Majesty especially pay attention not to let Niangniang work too hard or worry, otherwise it will not be good for the dragon heir." ”
Listening to these words, He Rong's face did not have the slightest joy that others thought it should have, he frowned, and then raised his hand casually, "Stand down." ”
Hearing this, the close minister was stunned, obviously he didn't expect He Rong's reaction to be so cold, usually this kind of good news is the easiest thing to get a reward, not only the pregnant concubine will get a lot of rewards, but even the person who announces the good news will also be touched with joy and will be rewarded.
Therefore, everyone will rush to report the good news, he rushed all the way, just to get a reward, but he didn't expect that Zhao Wang He Rong didn't seem to be as happy as everyone imagined when he heard the good news, and even ......
Thinking of this, the close minister had the courage to raise his eyes to look at He Rong, but saw that the corners of his mouth were tightly pursed into a line, as if a corner of thousands of miles of ice was condensed, and just one glance could make people freeze to death in place.
Sure enough, His Majesty was not happy!
After coming to this conclusion, according to the close minister, he naturally did not dare to say a word more, immediately saluted, and hurriedly retreated, for fear that if he touched any more reason, the reward would be in vain, and if he was punished again, it would be more than worth the loss.
After the minister left, He Rong stood in place for a long time, without saying a word, and naturally none of the guards around him dared to say more, and the guards under the city tower also knelt silently, not daring to raise their heads to look.
In this way, the condensed atmosphere did not know how long it took for his body to move, and then he lifted his steps and was about to walk towards the ramp under the castle tower.
Seeing that he was finally about to pass through the turn-off gate, the kneeling soldiers at the bottom were relieved in their hearts, and just when he was about to walk out of the west turn-off gate, his body was stunned, and then he saw his eyes tightened when he was still cold just now, and then looked at the kneeling guard below vigilantly and said, "There has been a fight here recently?"
Hearing this, the gatekeeper kneeling at the front was stunned, and before he could react, He Rong's gaze had already passed over coldly.
At the same time, Chu Yunsheng, who was hiding behind the stone chamber above He Rong's head, also heard these words clearly, she had not yet recovered from the shock that Tang Xuexu was pregnant, when she heard He Rong say such a sentence that almost broke her heart.
Her heart also rose to her throat, and her mind kept flashing pictures of how she would deal if He Rong noticed something strange at this time, if she sent someone up or he came up to check it in person.
At this time, her ears and six senses had all been released.
Naturally, I knew that the reason why He Rong said this sentence was because there was a wisp of blood in the air at this time, and this wisp of blood included the assassination in the stone room just now, and even the fishy smell that wafted after they had ambushed the corner in front of them to kill the group of soldiers who should have changed guards.
The air condensed all at once.
The wind in the night was clearly scorching and faintly uneasy, however, at this moment, Chu Yunsheng felt a biting coldness, which made her back wet clothes a little colder, making her can't help but shiver.
Just when she was feeling uneasy in her heart, and her palm was already holding the dagger tightly again, she heard the general who was kneeling in front of He Rong kowtow and said: "Yes, not long ago, a few rebels from the Qin family army who didn't know if they couldn't stand the torment or because they couldn't stand their Zhou Sen's arrest came here to make trouble, and they were finally killed under the city. ”
Hearing this, everyone felt that the condensation in the air was instantly removed, and He Rong also withdrew his gaze from the kneeling guard.
At this time, General Cao, who had been following He Rong, said: "Your Majesty, aren't you still worried that those traitors will not be able to make trouble? Now that we are on guard here, they want to make trouble, which is tantamount to a moth fighting a fire and killing themselves." ”
Hearing this, He Rong didn't answer immediately, he lifted his steps, took two steps, and then said softly: "Gu now hopes that they will make trouble." ”
Hearing this, General Cao behind him obviously didn't understand the meaning of his words, and was about to ask, but heard He Rong say again: "If they don't make trouble, it's not normal." ”
As he spoke, without waiting for General Cao to answer, He Rong had already lifted his steps and walked forward, and General Cao, who was lagging behind, understood what He Rong meant, and he quickly led the guards to follow He Rong's steps.
When the group of them walked away, Chu Yunsheng was really relieved when his back was against the stone wall.
The scene just now was too dangerous, if it weren't for the city gate guard coming out to make such an explanation, according to He Rong's temperament, I was afraid that if I didn't send someone to check, I would have come up to check it myself, and when the time came, it would be too late!
It's just that where He Rong is going now, Chu Yunsheng has no mind to care for the time being, and her ears can't help but recall the words of the close minister just now.
