Chapter 486: Doubtful
Chu Yunsheng is actually not so fragile, even in the face of so many life-and-death moments, she didn't want to cry, but every time she reunited with Su Jingshuo after a long absence, she would feel that she was extraordinarily fragile and extraordinarily hypocritical, once she met him, she instantly became a little resentful woman pretending to be full of grievances, and she couldn't stop her tears.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, I'm here. β
His voice was as gentle as water, and his eyes were as affectionate as ever.
Chu Yunsheng only felt that a warm current gradually flowed down the fingertips he held her to her limbs, and finally even the deepest part of her heart was warm.
It's a good feeling.
She sniffed, then stopped her tears, and then raised her eyes to look at Su Jingxuan, and then asked the doubt that had been bothering her heart: "Why did you appear here? Moreover, before you came to defend the country, none of the subordinates sent me news, and they didn't even tell me about Eryuan." β
Hearing this, Su Jingxuan took Chu Yunsheng's hand and sat down on the stone on the edge of the rockery, and then said: "Coming here is just a temporary change of plans, so I rushed here day and night, and even the messenger was not so fast, so naturally you didn't receive the news, and I couldn't be sure that I could come this time, so I didn't inform them in advance, I'm sorry, this time it's me who is wrong." β
Looking at the apology in his eyes, Chu Yunsheng was still to blame.
She looked into his eyes, even though he was now wearing a mask and a strange face, but she knew it was him, and he gave her no less tenderness and look than at any other time.
It is precisely because of him that she will have that sense of familiarity when she is in the main hall, and Su Jingxuan, like Chu Yunsheng, also learned from Su Yun how to change her eye color and eyes, so if he is not exposed by himself, it will be difficult for even the closest people to recognize it.
However, even so, Chu Yunsheng still had that strong sense of familiarity at that time, and he glanced at him a few more times.
Thinking of this, Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes to look at Su Jingxuan and said, "How did you follow the envoys of the Chu State to the banquet?"
Hearing this, Su Jingxuan glanced at her helplessly, and then complained: "It's not because of you." β
This sentence made Chu Yunsheng a little confused, she looked at Su Jingxuan in confusion and said, "Because of me?"
"You know, I came all the way to Weiwangdu, just to see you, but you are good, just passed by me, I found the two yuan, let him take me to Taoshan to find you, only to hear that you returned to Weiwangdu, and I rushed to Weiwangdu non-stop, to your aunt and their hiding place, but Lan Yi told me, you went to the general's mansion, and later, it was Brother Dumb who brought back your news, I only knew that you were held hostage by the prince of Yanguo, and I thought that there would be a banquet in the palace of Weiwang tonight to entertain the envoys of various countries, so I followed the envoys of Chu to mix inγ β
Su Jingxuan seemed to be complaining, but in fact, there was no hint of complaining in his tone, but the words were full of worry and concern, and Chu Yunsheng's heart was both guilty and sweet.
"So, when I was in the main hall, you recognized me at a glance?" Chu Yunsheng played with the jasper pendant on Su Jingxuan's waist, raised her eyes to look at him, and there was no disguise in her eyebrows and eyes, all rippling with sincere friendship.
Su Jingxuan nodded, and then said, "Didn't you also see me at a glance?"
As he spoke, he raised his hand and rubbed Chu Yunsheng's head, his eyes full of pampering.
Chu Yunsheng was a little itchy by him, and couldn't help but sneeze, and then glared at him with disgust: "So, you were the one who rescued the king before?"
Hearing this, the affection in Su Jingxuan's eyes gradually faded, he sighed, and then said, "It's good that I'm here tonight, otherwise, I'm afraid that the situation will not be good." β
Sure enough, he injured the dancing girl, otherwise, the king of Wei at this time was afraid that he would have become the ghost of the dancing girl's sword.
Although he was completely disheartened with King Wei, but the moment he saw him in danger, Chu Yunsheng still relented, after all, it was her little uncle, and she also promised her aunt that she would save his life.
Therefore, if Su Jingxuan was not present at that time and made a timely move, I am afraid that she would not have the shame to face her aunt again.
Seeing a trace of self-blame and loneliness on Chu Yunsheng's face, Su Jingxuan hurriedly raised his hand and patted her shoulder, wanting to appease her emotions, and said, "The situation at that time was too sudden, you don't need to blame yourself, and isn't everything okay now?"
As he spoke, Su Jingshuo raised his hand to brush away a strand of broken hair on Chu Yunsheng's forehead, and then said, "It's too dangerous for you to come to the palace alone this time, you obviously promised me not to do such a dangerous thing again." β
Hearing this, Chu Yunsheng couldn't help but stick out his tongue weakly, and then smiled coquettishly: "Aren't I fine?"
I thought that she would be able to fool her by smiling like this, but Su Jingxuan didn't seem to be willing to let her go on this issue, his eyes tightened, he looked at Chu Yunsheng with worry and said seriously: "This time it's also luck, I just happened to meet He Rong here, what if it's in a more secluded place?" He Rong That person is cunning and suspicious, after suspecting your identity, he would rather kill by mistake than let go, so, if you do this again, how can I rest assured?"
Chu Yunsheng also knew that she was too risky this time, so when facing Su Jingxuan's reproach, she nodded humbly, then raised her hand and pinched Su Jingxuan's unfamiliar face and said flatteringly: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, I won't next time." β
Speaking, without waiting for Su Jingxuan to speak, Chu Yunsheng took the lead in changing the topic and said, "You say, is the assassination of King Wei this time He Rong or Tang Duyun's manipulation? Or do both of them have a part?"
Chu Yunsheng just said this, as if she remembered something, she jumped up from Su Jingxuan's arms all of a sudden, and then touched the back of her head and said, "I just patronized and talked to you, I forgot that I still have important things to do." β
As she spoke, she was about to walk out, but Su Jingxuan hurriedly grabbed her wrist and used that force to directly bring her into his arms.
"The banquet is about to end, what else do you have to do? If we don't leave the palace while the courtiers are over the banquet, we are afraid that we will be trapped in this palace." β
Su Jingxuan lowered his eyes and looked at Chu Yunsheng gently, his tone full of worry.
Seeing this, Chu Yunsheng shook his head and said, "I can't leave yet, I want to go to King Wei and verify one thing." β
When he said this, Chu Yunsheng's face was nervous, and he didn't mean to joke at all.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng's expression, Su Jingxuan did not delay, and immediately took Chu Yunsheng's hand, and followed her to perform light skills and swept directly from the imperial garden to the direction of King Wei's bedroom.
Along the way, they carefully avoided the layers of guards, and finally when they were waiting for the guards of King Wei's bedroom to change guards, the two of them lay on their stomachs and hid in the palace cavity shaded by dense trees, Chu Yunsheng looked at Su Jingxuan, who was holding her beside him, and said, "Why don't you ask me what I came to do with King Wei?"
Hearing this, Su Jingxuan pulled her closer a little, trying to use his body to block the wind and cold outside for her, and then said: "You naturally have your purpose in doing this, and as long as it is what you want to do, I will accompany you, if you are willing to tell me, I will naturally say it." β
In Su Jingxuan's opinion, this is just an ordinary sentence, but in Chu Yunsheng's ears, it feels extremely kind.
Because the trust and propriety contained in this word are no longer within the reach of ordinary people.
She sighed, and also drilled her head into Su Jingshuo's arm into his arms, and then said: " Just at the banquet, after seeing the angry King Wei, I was disappointed in him at first, and my heart was like ashes, but then I thought about it again, and I faintly felt that something was wrong, a person's temperament has changed so dramatically in a short period of time, either it is to encounter some great changes, or it is the physical reason, and King Wei is in the palace with fine clothes and jade food, do whatever he wants, saying that it should be impossible to encounter any great changes, as for the physical reasons, it is possible, at that time, it was because I thought of this layer, when I looked at King Wei again, I found that his face under the anger also faintly revealed paleness and sickness, so I felt more and more suspicious, If you want to get closer to King Wei, it's best to take the pulse for him and make sure, after all, now Tang Duyun and He Rong are both here to defend the country, and they both have wolf ambitions, but we don't know their plans, so we have to be more careful. β
Hearing this, Su Jingxuan also nodded in agreement.
Speaking of this, Chu Yunsheng remembered one thing, she moved, looked back at Su Jingshuo and said: "By the way, you said before that you suddenly changed your plan and came to defend the country, is it a very important plan? Now is it a critical moment, is the overall situation of the Chu country stable? You came here rashly for me, if they are found out......
That's not a good situation.
The place where they were hiding was dimly lit, but Su Jingxuan still saw the worry in Chu Yunsheng's eyes when he said this, he subconsciously raised his hand and hugged Chu Yunsheng tighter and tighter in his arms, and then said: "Don't worry, I have already arranged the affairs of Chu State, and this time, I have a big gift for Zhao State." β
As he spoke, the corners of Su Jingxuan's mouth raised slightly, revealing a smile, and that smile was shining with a cunning light, which reminded people of a fox high in the clouds.
Seeing Chu Yunsheng's puzzled gaze, Su Jingxuan raised his hand and patted her shoulder, and then said gently: "This matter is a long story, when we go back, I will explain it to you well." β
Hearing this, seeing Chu Yunsheng nodded, the corners of his mouth stretched more and more.
Even though he was wearing an unfamiliar mask at this time, with a plain face on top, this face was a little more handsome because of his shining eyes.
Chu Yunsheng looked at such a pair of eyes and couldn't help but feel a little stupid.
At this time, the Praetorian Guards in the Weiwang Palace had begun to change their guards, and this was also the time when the garrison in the Weiwang Palace was the weakest.
Chu Yunsheng and Su Jingxuan's light skills are not weak, and it is at night, when the light is dim, it is not difficult for the two of them to sneak into King Wei's bedroom.
When the guards outside the palace wall began to enter, Su Jingxuan pinched Chu Yunsheng's palm, and Chu Yunsheng also moved his fingertips, giving him a signal that he was ready.
Then the two of them swept up from the palace wall almost at the same time, and directly performed the fastest light skill they could perform to jump over the wall, and then jumped all the way over the two layers of the palace wall, and finally landed in a flower garden in this palace.
At this time, it happened that a group of guards who had changed their guard passed by the flower garden.
Su Jingshuo and Chu Yunsheng's reaction was also extremely fast, and before they had time to see the team of guards clearly, their bodies flashed, and they hurriedly avoided and jumped into the flower garden.
The two Praetorian Guards who walked in front of them only felt a flower in front of them, and before they could even see what it was, their figures had already avoided the flower garden, and the two people widened their eyes again, but they saw that there was a shadow around them, and immediately thought that they were dazzled by mistake, and did not think about it, and then continued to walk forward with the others.
And Chu Yunsheng was pressed by Su Jingxuan at this time and hid in the flowerbed, most of the flowers and plants in this flowerbed were low, it was really not easy for the two of them to hide, but fortunately, the reaction of the two of them was also extremely fast, the moment they noticed that someone was coming, Su Jingshuo had already jumped in with Chu Yunsheng in his arms, and Chu Yunsheng also seemed to have a heart, and he directly grabbed Su Jingxuan's waist and rolled into the flowerbed with Su Jingxuan.
In order to better hide their figures, the bodies of the two people were almost all attached together.
Su Jingxuan was afraid of pressing Chu Yunsheng, and had already subconsciously tried to support his body with his hands, but before he moved, he had already heard the footsteps of the Praetorian Guards coming over, the flower garden was so low, it would be able to cover their bodies, if they moved a little at this time, it would cause these flowers and plants to shake and cause the vigilance of those Praetorian Guards, so Su Jingxuan, who was originally afraid of pressing Chu Yunsheng, had to restrain the strength to support himself at this moment, and could only temporarily let himself stick to Chu Yunsheng's body firstγ
At first, he was just afraid of pressing Chu Yunsheng, but the next moment, he and Chu Yunsheng almost found out that the distance between them was so close and so ambiguous!
At this time, Chu Yunsheng was pressed under Su Jingxuan, and the extremely well-grown flower branches blocked her vision, and she could only see Su Jingxuan's face almost on her face through the sporadic light, however, Su Jingxuan's eyes were exceptionally shining at this time.
Not only that, at this time, her body was also extremely hot, and through the heavy clothes, Chu Yunsheng could feel the scorching breath on Su Jingxuan's body.
