Chapter 788: A Thousand Shots
"Mrs. Hou, is this okay?" Seeing that Qiao Zhao had already withdrawn his hand, Wei Wuxian asked nervously.
Qiao Zhao took a deep look at Emperor Ming Kangdi, whose eyes were closed, and bowed his head: "Well, it's okay." β
In the case of Emperor Ming Kangdi, it is difficult to save the body, and it is not very complicated to just stimulate the potential in the body to bring it back to light.
"Mrs. Hou, tomorrow is dusk, when will the needle be pulled?"
Dusk was originally just a general time, and Wei Wuxian didn't dare to take it lightly.
Qiao Zhao couldn't help frowning: "This depends on the specific situation at that time." β
Wei Wuxian looked at Qiao Zhao deeply: "Then please ask Master Hou and Mrs. Hou to stay here for the time being." The kindness of Lord Hou and Mrs. Hou will be remembered by our family. β
Qiao Zhao smiled: "Grandpa Wei doesn't have to be like this, since Master Hou brought me over, he will naturally go all out, after all, he can't let the rebellious ministers and thieves succeed." β
"Madame, righteousness!"
"Then Ben Hou took Neiko to rest first. β
Wei Wuxian immediately arranged for the chamberlain to send the two to their temporary residence.
Looking at the palatial house, Qiao Zhao couldn't help but smile: "I never thought that I would have the opportunity to live in this kind of place." β
"Do you like it?" asked Shao Mingyuan with a smile.
Qiao Zhao glanced at him: "Don't think nonsense, no matter how good it is here, it can't compare to sleeping comfortably in our house." β
"Yes, don't talk about us, how can even the emperor sleep here?"
Shao Mingyuan hugged Qiao Zhao and gently stroked her hair: "I've got you involved again." β
Qiao Zhao leaned into the familiar embrace and felt extremely steady, hugged the man's waist and sighed: "Aren't we living in the deep mountains and old forests, standing in a higher position than the vast majority of people in the world, so shouldn't we bear more wind and rain than them?"
"That's up to me, too. β
Qiao Zhao glanced at Shao Mingyuan: "I am your wife, not a silk flower." Besides, I'm sure you'll take care of me. β
Shao Mingyuan smiled: "The worst, we can still smear oil on the soles of our feet and stay away from this place of right and wrong." Okay, go to sleep, the more you have to keep your energy up the more you are at this time. β
The two of them lay down in their clothes, Qiao Zhao lay beside Shao Mingyuan, and asked after a while: "Tingquan, when you say stay away from the land of right and wrong, do you mean leaving Daliang?"
In this battle for succession, if King Mu wins, it may not be easy for them to live a stable life, but the whole world is not the king's land, and only by leaving Daliang will they no longer be at the mercy of King Mu.
Shao Mingyuan took Qiao Zhao's hand: "I've thought about it, we can go to sea in the south, and we can find a balance between Daliang, Northern Qi and Xijiang in the north, and there is always a way out for us to really let go of all this." But it's hard to leave your homeland, your parents and relatives are here, and I don't plan to take this step until I have to. β
Qiao Zhao's eyes flashed with brilliance: "Overseas and Northland have their own benefits, in fact, as long as we are together, we are the same everywhere." My grandfather has told me more than once that my heart is my hometown. β
"Well, sleep. Shao Mingyuan stroked her cheek.
Qiao Zhao nodded slightly and closed his eyes.
In the dim light, Shao Mingyuan raised his hand and looked.
He relied on the sword in his hand to fight everything now, why did he flee from his homeland like a lost dog because of the unkindness of those in power, and let his wife and children live in a completely strange place?
At this point, Shao Mingyuan did not tell Qiao Zhao everything in the end.
Zhao Zhao is the granddaughter of the great Confucian Qiao Zhuo, who has been taught by Mr. Qiao since she was a child, and the idea of loyalty, patriotism and etiquette has been imprinted in her bones.
There was a light breathing sound around him, looking at his wife's sleeping face, Shao Mingyuan smiled with satisfaction, quietly imprinted a kiss on her lips, and then fell asleep.
The two of them just slept until dawn and woke up.
It's not that the two of them feel less, but the sound of killing outside is shocking, and even in the depths of the palace, it is still audible.
The two got up, dressed and washed, and when a little eunuch with beautiful eyebrows brought a sumptuous breakfast, Shao Mingyuan asked, "How is it outside?"
The little eunuch hurriedly lowered his head and said nervously: "The slave doesn't know either, if the Hou Ye wants to know, you can ask our factory master." β
"Let's go, let's go see Grandpa Wei. β
Wei Wuxian and Zhang Tianshi have been guarding Emperor Ming Kang, and the battle situation in front of the palace gate has been constantly reported by the inner servants layer by layer.
Hearing Shao Mingyuan ask, Wei Wuxie's face was ugly and said, "Nearly half of our people have been damaged, if we really want to survive until dusk, I'm afraid it will be difficult to survive two or three ......."
Shao Mingyuan's expression remained unchanged when he heard this: "Tell my father-in-law first, and when that time comes, Neiko will pull out the silver needle for the emperor, no matter what the battle situation is, Benhou will take Neiko to leave this place immediately through the back door." β
"It's nature. Wei Wuxian smiled bitterly.
Don't say that the champion Hou is in a hurry to leave, even if he doesn't leave, he has to think of sending people away, otherwise what is the matter with letting people outside see that an adult man appears in the emperor's palace?
"My father-in-law still thinks about how to let the emperor understand the situation in the shortest possible time when the emperor wakes up. Shao Mingyuan reminded.
Wei Wuxian and Zhang Tianshi glanced at each other, and said with a solemn face: "Our family has already thought about this, and we still want Heavenly Master to come forward when the time comes." β
Zhang Tianshi nodded at Shao Mingyuan and gave a tacit look.
Soon it was noon.
The scorching sun hung high in the sky, and the corpses outside the palace gate were piled up layer after layer, blood stained the palace walls and land, and the rich bloody atmosphere was so thick that people couldn't breathe.
Those noble ministers who had lasted for a day and a night had already crumbled and fainted several times one after another, but this battle for the succession was endless, and those who were awake could not have the idea of leaving like this anyway.
"Shousuke, why don't you go and get some rest first. Seeing that Xu Mingda's face turned pale, a subordinate officer persuaded.
"Confused, how can you rest at this time, confirming whether the emperor is safe is the top priority!" Xu Mingda reprimanded righteously.
Xiaguan was sprayed by Lord Shoufu's spittle and hurriedly bowed his head, not daring to persuade again.
While the ministers were waiting in fear and suffering, the sun began to gradually move westward, and seven or eight more people fell one after another.
Seeing that his own side had the upper hand, the palace gate that had been stormed for a day and a night began to crumble, King Mu looked at King Rui with a pale face in the shadow of the sword and sword, and couldn't help but smile excitedly.
In the end, it was he who got a head start, and this time, God was on his side.
Hearing a bang, the heavy palace gate collapsed, and the chamberlains who did not have time to avoid the palace gate were pressed under the door, and before they could struggle, countless people stepped on the door and ran quickly, and blood quickly spread out from the gap between the palace gate and the land.
"Factory Gong, the palace gate has been breached, and our people are holding on to it in front, I don't know how long it will lastβ" The chamberlain hurriedly reported.
Wei Wuxian was covered in a cold sweat, and suddenly heard Zhang Tianshi's voice full of surprise: "Your Majesty, you are awake!"
