Chapter 82: Falling asleep

In the autumn night of falling snow, a flute sound permeated the palace of King Xuan, the flute sound was melodious and clear, Yaoling walked lightly to the door of the wind, put her ear on the door and listened carefully, but unexpectedly the door opened silently followed by a voice: "Don't come in yet." ”

Silently, he walked in.

Feng Zhao in the room was writing in front of the table, Yao Ling knew that he was in a bad mood today, thinking that Feng Qing took Chang Ruoli's hand, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Fengzhao looked up at her for a moment, and then went to write. Yaoling sat quietly next to the small table in the room, took a teacup and quietly sipped the tea, but she didn't say a word.

After a long time, Feng Zhao put away the pen and ink, came to sit next to Yaoling, looked at her for a while, then stroked her hair with his hand and asked in a low voice, "What's the matter, it's so quiet today?"

Stretched out his hand around Fengzhao's waist and rested his head in his arms. The lights in the house were lit at this time, and the octagonal palace lamp revealed a hazy yellow light, illuminating the room in a hazy and quiet light. Yaoling quietly leaned on Fengzhao's arms. Time passed silently, and she didn't hear Yaoling's answer, but Fengzhao didn't ask her anymore, a jade hand stayed on her hair, and let her lean on herself.

In the middle of the night, in the remote courtyard of Dijing South Street, a plain white moonlight sat elegantly at the table in the front of the house, and two middle-aged men who looked like literati stood next to them.

"Tell the prince, today's matter," the left-handed literati said, but was interrupted by Yueming's shot.

"Can you find out the identities of those assassins in the back?" Yueming's cold face didn't have any expression.

After the crowd dispersed, the subordinates went to the square again and picked up those hidden weapons. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is invited to take a look. With a wave of his hand, the man next to him hurriedly took out a piece of brocade from the dark compartment in the corner and put it on the table, and when he opened it, he revealed several black darts.

Yueming looked at those darts carefully, but they were just some ordinary darts, and his nose moved slightly, and the expression on his face was a little solemn.

At this time, the literati continued: "My subordinates have checked this dart, and this dart is extremely ordinary, but the poison on the dart is extraordinary. This poison is a doom. ”

Yueming listened quietly, and frowned slightly when she heard the poison of the doom, the plover feeds on poisonous snakes and poisonous toads, so the doom is full of poison, but no one has ever seen what the dow looks like, but there are a few dows in the palace of the emperor in folklore.

"Are you sure that the medicine on these darts is poison?" Yueming asked lightly.

"The subordinates can be sure," the middle-aged literati on the left affirmed.

After a moment of silence, Yueming said softly: "Continue to investigate the Eagle Guard, and then investigate the place in the northeast corner of the palace to see if there is anything different." ”

"Yes, subordinate order".

"My subordinates still have one more thing to do. ”

"What's the matter?" Yue Ming frowned slightly.

"When my subordinates searched for those hidden weapons, they accidentally discovered that the monarch of the Ji Kingdom was also wandering around the South Gate Square. ”

Yueming's usually cold eyes suddenly looked at the scribe, and there was a dazzling light in his eyes, and after a while, he regained his normalcy and asked, "Are you sure?"

The scribe under his command must have nodded and said, "Although the subordinates have not seen the emperor of the Ji Kingdom with their own eyes, the portraits of the kings of various countries have long been remembered by their subordinates. will not be mistaken, and after his subordinates found him, they secretly took turns to observe in hiding, and finally saw that he was waiting for Jiang Li's Princess Rongyu. In the evening, he sent Princess Rongyu to the palace of King Xuan, and then the carriage went out of the east gate. During this time, a woman in red got into the carriage. ”

After a long silence, Yueming said that she knew, then stood up and walked out of the door, disappearing into the night with a light snow.

Feng Zhao looked at Yaoling who was asleep by herself, her eyes were filled with a touch of love, she gently stroked her soft hair, Ruyu's fingers touched her tender face slightly, Yaoling had already fallen asleep at this time, a pair of eyebrows faded into the sideburns, curly eyelashes covered the bright big eyes like a curtain, and the lips that were as small as cherries became more and more ruddy and lovely in deep sleep. Ruyu's fingers brushed over the pink and tender face, and finally stopped at the rosy lips. After a while, Feng Zhao suddenly raised his hand and gently touched it on Yaoling's sleeping hole.

"You're so tired. He muttered to himself in a low and shallow voice, and then gently hugged Yaoling horizontally, looked at her sleeping appearance, and finally walked out of the door, came to Yaoling's bedroom and put her on the bed, covered her with a brocade quilt, and when he went out, he told Lancao not to startle Yaoling tomorrow.

After settling Yaoling, he did not go back to his bedroom, but turned around and walked out of the gate of the palace, walking in the direction of the imperial city, at this time the street was completely dark, occasionally the lights of the people on the high-rise buildings flashed in the dark night, and the snow was still falling silently, and it melted when it landed.

The sky was cold, the night was thick, he walked alone, through the rows of houses, through the dark streets, and finally came to the northeast corner of the imperial city under the high wall, he stopped walking, after a long time raised his head, in the dark night to look up at the towering high wall.

I don't know how long he looked up like this, but he finally turned around and walked back again.

When he was about to arrive at the palace of the king of Xuan, Yueming scattered his strength and listened to the sound for several miles, and then entered the backyard of the palace as soon as his figure moved, and on the side of the rockery next to his house, he saw the wind standing in the snowy night, and the two entered the room silently.

When the lights are lit, the room suddenly brightens and warms.

"You arranged the assassins today?" Looking at the back of the moonlight, Fengzhao asked in a deep voice.

Yueming looked at the lights that were lit up and said softly, "The previous batch of those people were. ”

"Sure enough, is it to test the Eagle Guard?" Feng Zhao asked Yueming, when the assassins ran to Feng Qing and his mother, he was originally going to come forward to rescue him, but the moment he was stopped by Yue Ming, he saw the hint in Yue Ming's eyes, and remembered what Li Yueming said about the Eagle Guard.

"Yes, but I didn't expect to encounter a real assassination. Yueming looked back at him.

Fengzhao also looked at Yueming, and the eyes of the two of them also flashed with doubt, "Who will instigate the next batch of assassins?" as if asking Yueming and as if talking to himself.

"It may be someone outside the palace, it may be someone inside the palace, or it may be collusion between inside and outside the palace, in short, their target is Fengqing. Yueming said with a blank face, and after a pause, he continued lightly:

"Feng Qing is dead, and whoever is most beneficial may be who. I've sent someone to investigate the matter, and from the thunderbolts in the hands of the Assassins, there will be results. ”

Feng Zhao nodded and said: "Thunderbolt bombs are only owned by the royal guards, and only the famous Wu family in the world can produce this kind of thunderbolt bombs, but the Wu family has signed an alliance with the royal families of various countries, and the thunderbolt bombs are only sold to the royal guards of various countries, and are not sold to the outside world, and the Wu family has always been mysterious, even if they are in contact with the royal family, they are the designated connectors, and others do not know where the Wu family is." Therefore, if you want to investigate, you must start with the royal guard. ”

"Thistle Rujin appeared in the imperial capital today. Yueming glanced at Fengzhao and said softly to him.

Hearing this, Fengzhao, who had a calm face, couldn't help but show a stunned look, and the luster in his eyes was shining, it would not be an accident that Ji Rujin could appear in the imperial capital, presumably he had already met Yaoling, but he came to the imperial capital far from being as simple as seeing Yaoling.

Stood up and came to the table, took the sword that Yueming used to decorate the room from the weapon rack on the table, and pulled out the sword with a "poof", and the sword body emitted a cold and quiet light under the light. Although he and Yueming don't use swords, but the love of swords is a common problem for people who practice martial arts, although this sword is not an ancient famous sword, but it is also a rare good sword in the world. Looking at the sword in his hand, he was thinking about the thistle in his heart, and Yueming's face was still as plain as water, as if he was an old monk who had settled down, and looked at the swaying lights in front of the table.

"Whether or not today's assassination has anything to do with him, the great dragon will definitely fight with the country of Ji in the future. At that time, the pattern of the world will definitely change. Yueming whispered.

After seeing the wind of the sword, his eyes tightened, and finally only two words came out of his mouth: "The world." "Follow the sword in your hand into the sheath.
