1398.Chapter 1398 There are "masters" guarding here!
Yang Jinqiao looked at me like this, didn't speak for a while, but the atmosphere was a lot duller, Sun Jingfei walked up to her side and whispered, "You, are you okay?" β
Yang Jinqiao said lightly: "It's okay." β
Although everyone's feelings were not good at this time, her somewhat cold words still made people can't help but shrink a little, Sun Jingfei only glanced at her, then lowered his head and took two steps back, looked around at the people he led, and immediately said: "Quick, we want to escort the emperor and Concubine Ning to Jixian Palace!" β
"Jixian Palace?"
Yang Jinqiao frowned slightly, and turned his head to look at me: "What are you doing there?" β
Before I could answer, a slightly wheezing voice behind me said, "She thinks that it is the safest place left in the palace." β
Looking back, it was Nangong Lizhu, who was slowly getting up from the ground.
Her hand was slashed by the man's knife just now, and the blood flowed like a torrent, I almost thought that her hand could not be saved, but at this time, a deep cut was made on the back of the hand, and I covered it with my other hand, but the blood still kept flowing out of the fingers, and fell down along the fingertips.
She looked at us with a pale face: "Really? β
I also glanced at her, and then looked at Pei Yuanhao, who was covered in blood next to him, and didn't speak, only turned back to Yang Jinqiao and said, "Go there first." β
Yang Jinqiao was blocked from the noon gate, and probably had nowhere to go at the moment, so he nodded: "Okay." β
We all didn't have time to rest and get back on the road, I saw Nangong Lizhu trembling in pain, only took one step, and staggered to the ground, I was startled, thinking that she was going to die, and was about to step forward to help her, but I saw her gritting her teeth again and standing up by herself.
I saw her feel a short knife from the corpse on the ground, and held it tightly in her hand.
I didn't say anything, just walked on with them.

By the time we arrived at the Jixian Palace, the team had grown from thirty or forty people to more than a hundred.
Along the way, those palace maids and eunuchs who were panicked and scattered saw us, especially the bright yellow robe on Pei Yuanhao's body, like a drowning person grabbing a straw and putting all their hopes on him, although they didn't realize at this time that the emperor himself was also unconscious at the moment and had no ability to protect himself.
But they were still the same, and even some people gathered under Pei Yuanhao's soft chair and hugged him up the high steps in front of the Jixian Palace.
When I went up, I saw that there was no one inside!
As soon as Sun Jingfei entered, he froze at the empty courtyard: "What about the people here?" β
Those palace maids and eunuchs also panicked: "Why is there no one left?" β
"They're not all going to run away, are they?"
"Now, where else can I go?"
Seeing that they were getting more and more flustered, Yang Jinqiao frowned, stepped forward and said, "What are you panicking about?" The emperor and the palace, as well as all the mothers are here, so it's your turn to talk nonsense?! β
She was righteous and strict, but she immediately suppressed those people, and she didn't dare to talk nonsense anymore.
I turned my head to look at her, and then looked at Concubine Shun who came with us along the way, Wen Sisi, Liu Li, and Ye Yunshuang, all of whom gathered around Pei Yuanhao with Nangong Lizhu, and there was chaos in the palace, these concubines who were pampered and extremely beautiful on weekdays were more nervous than anyone else.
Once the rebels do find this place, then their fate will be worse than that of any palace maid and eunuch.
I took a deep breath and said, "Don't be afraid, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and when you get here, you will first settle down with His Majesty the Emperor." If the rebels do come - the terrain is high here, they won't be able to fight so easily. β
As he spoke, Sun Jingfei glanced at me.
The people around him are all women and eunuchs, so they are naturally very easy to fool, but he and those Praetorian Guards, unlike these people, although the Jixian Hall is high, there is no fortress that can be defended accordingly, and the soldiers under him are only a few dozen, and those rebels can attack the Xuanwu Gate, just encountered on the road, there are more than 100 people, which shows that there are a lot of them.
I looked at him, winked at him, and said, "Let's go inside." β
"Yes."
Those people followed us, and also carried Pei Yuanhao's soft chair to the main hall inside, Sun Jingfei had already stayed outside, and commanded some people to close the door outside the Jixian Hall and stick there.
I walked in the front, led the people through the courtyard in the middle, and had just walked up the steps outside the main hall in front of me, when suddenly, something suddenly flew over, and I screamed in fright, and the whole person shrank for a moment.
I heard a whoosh, and a cold light flew past my ears and nailed to the beams behind me.
I had a palpitation, and when I looked back, it was an arrow!
That'sβ
Before I could speak, the men who were following me were screaming in fright: "There are rebels! β
"Run!"
At this shout, they were about to scatter and flee, and I stretched out my hand: "Wait a minute! β
The men looked back at me, but instead of looking at them, I looked at the closed door on the steps, behind which it seemed as if a figure had flashed.
I said loudly, "I'm Yan Qingqing!" β
Suddenly, there was silence all around.
Then, I saw the door slowly open, and a person walked out from behind the door, it turned out to be a student of Jixian Palace, the wide-sleeved robe on weekdays was tied to his wrists and ankles with a few cloth belts, which looked particularly neat, holding a bow and arrow in his hand, and looked at us cautiously: "Is it Senior Sister Yan?" β
"It's me!"
The man seemed relieved, waved to his hand, and then walked down the steps towards us.
I beckoned the people behind me not to move, and when I looked again, the doors on the steps opened one after another, and more than a dozen students walked out of it, all dressed up like him, and the one who led me came to me, a very handsome young man with a childish face, and his forehead was also full of cold sweat, and when he saw me, he nodded to me and saluted: "Senior Sister Yan." β
"Where's Master Fu?"
"The teacher is in the library at the back, let us keep watch outside."
"Guarded?"
I glanced at the library not far in front, it was not far from the library, but there was a large hall in the middle, an apse, and the winding paths and countless grass and trees around it, which seemed to be extraordinarily deep, and I immediately understood: "He asked you to protect the library?" β
"Yes," the student nodded, "The teacher said that everything else can be lost, but the things in the library can't be lost." β
I couldn't help but smile in my heart.
This old gentleman, what he values and what the world values, is still different after all.
However, fortunately, the people here are still there, and as far as I know, his preaching and teaching are not limited to books, and the "shooting" in the six arts of Confucianism is what we need most at this moment, as can be seen from the arrow that the student shot me just now. I hurriedly said, "How many of you have here?" β
The student said, "Nearly a hundred." β
"Are they all around?"
"Yes."
"That's good, you call them all out and follow orders at the front door."
"What?"
The student was stunned for a moment, then looked back at his senior brothers, who were also a little hesitant: "However, the teacher is asking us to protect the library pavilion." β
I said angrily: "If you can defend the Jixian Palace, can't you still protect the Library Pavilion?" If those people come in and set a fire, do you think the library can be left alone? β
When the student saw that I was angry, he was immediately startled, probably remembering the fire in the Jixian Hall back then, and nodded hurriedly, but he was a little hesitant: "But the teacher-"
"He's blind, can he be outside? If something really happens, let him come to me! β
When the student heard me say this, he no longer hesitated, and hurriedly put away his bow and arrows: "I know, I'll go and sue them." β
As he spoke, he turned around and was about to walk back, while the other students stayed with me.
I suddenly remembered something and asked, "By the way, what about Chabixing?" β
"Senior Brother Cha?" The students looked at each other and shook their heads: "I didn't see him." β
"Didn't see him? He's out? β
"I don't know, no one has seen him since the accident outside."
"Did you see him?"
"Nope."
ββ¦β¦β
I hesitatedβ
Before, I set the Daoist Hall and the Jixian Hall as the two safest places in the palace, naturally because there are two "masters" in these two places, Yan Wuxian can protect the Emperor, and Zha Bixing can protect the Jixian Palace, but I didn't expect that Zha Bixing is gone!
Where did he go?
Just when my thoughts were confused, Wen Sisi next to me was already looking at me anxiously: "Miss Yan, what about us?" What are we going to do? β
I looked back at her, and then at the frightened people, took a deep breath, barely calmed down, and then said, "You all go to the inside of the main hall, just ahead." β
As soon as they saw it, they didn't care about anything, and immediately rushed towards it.
When carrying Pei Yuanhao's soft chair past me, I saw that Nangong Lizhu had been following him, her hand that had been stained red with blood was holding one of Pei Yuanhao's hands, no one stopped her from bleeding, and the blood kept pouring out in the hands of the two people.
I frowned.
And she, with a pale face, as if she didn't feel anything, was led by Pei Yuanhao, and walked in slowly.
I originally wanted to stop her, but I hesitated again, and at this time, a few people from the Praetorian Guards guarding the gate rushed in and said breathlessly, "Miss Yan, you go out quickly." β
I looked back at them, "What's wrong?" β
"You, go and see."
ββ¦β¦β
I wondered, what are they guarding the gate for?
Thinking so, he didn't hesitate, turned and walked out.
