Chapter 3: I'm supposed to die

The maid outside exclaimed. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Someone, there's an assassin!"

There were more than a dozen maids guarding the hall in the hall, all of whom were pale and panicked, and several young maids even sat on the ground and couldn't stand up.

Only the head maid, Lu Shushen, could still keep her composure, and barely straightened up and said to Ye Daidu. "There are fanatics breaking in, please let Your Highness avoid it quickly. ”

Wow, it's only the third day, okay? Can you let her live until she ascends the throne, even if it's as ugly as her father, it doesn't matter! Dare you be a little patient! Ye Daiwan was going crazy in her heart, but she didn't show it on her face at all, and said very calmly. "What's the matter, where are the guards outside the palace?"

"Your Highness!" a maid cried out in fear, biting her lower lip.

"Shut up. Lu Shushen, the head maid, still adhered to etiquette and humility at this moment.

Ye Daiwan admired her a little at this moment, when this kind of life and death is at stake, people who can still stick to this kind of principle that doesn't seem to have any meaning are worthy of being looked down upon. But that's all. Because no matter how sacred a principle is, it cannot save a life.

The head maid, Lu Shushen, turned her head and continued to answer Ye Daidu's words. "Your Highness, the guards are outside the palace. Your Highness should quickly avoid it. ”

Ye Daiwan didn't think so. Where can she escape? This palace is full of dangers, and there are traps hidden everywhere, and if she takes a single step out of this palace, she is afraid that she will be cut down by the guards who do not distinguish between friend and foe. In the end, it was just a scapegoat in exchange for her life. "Call the guards in. ”

The chief maid hesitated for a moment, but still called a maid and ordered him to go down. Immediately the doors of the temple were opened. A team of royal guards dressed in majestic clothes came in, and the man at the head, Ye Daidu, actually knew him.

This man was the first chief of guard to pick her up when she was chosen as the next empress. Ye Dai was slightly relieved, if he wanted to kill himself, he could kill her in the firewood room that day and bury her on the spot, and then go back and say that he didn't find her, wouldn't it be more effortless.

"The minister left to guard Jiang Ying, and led the crowd to prepare for himself, see Your Majesty. The voice was very loud, sweeping away the dim and panicked atmosphere of the entire hall, and immediately became energetic.

Ye Daiwan looked at each other in a few eyes, more than seven feet long, his eyes were clear, his aura was high, and he was immediately swordsmanlike. What a majestic general!

It seems that his life can be saved. Ye Daiwan breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, but she still said in a serious voice. "Get up. When I heard that a fanatic had broken in, I was disturbed. Please keep guard here, too. ”

Jiang Ying clenched her right hand into a fist, slapped her left shoulder vigorously and saluted, looking directly at Ye Daiwan with an expressionless face, her voice was as cold as a frozen pine and cypress on a spring night. "Obey the king's orders. ”

Ye Daiwan just watched them set up troops in the room, and I don't know if it was guaranteed by this mighty general, the maids in the hall calmed down one after another and continued to perform their duties. However, Ye Daiwan didn't miss standing behind Jiang Ying, and several sons and daughters sneered at her with disdain.

Cowardly as a mouse, I am really annoyed that I want to protect such rats when we are born and die. Ye Daiwan could easily guess what they were thinking. But their ridicule didn't affect her. Only an unsheathed knife can kill, but it is despised, and it is not once or twice, what is there to worry about. What's more, they didn't think wrong.

She really didn't want to die. At least I don't want to die so badly. People must ask for something in their life, and she asks for very little, but only a good death. It's a pity that even such a little thought is going to become an extravagant hope. If she can live, the world will bully her, laugh at her, and ridicule her, what is it? As long as she can survive, she can endure it.

After a few quarters of an hour, no more sound was heard. The spirits of the people in the hall were all relaxed, and only Ye Daiwan was still extremely vigilant. Because this assassin had only one purpose, to kill her. Others may survive, but she can't. After a little more waiting, a guard came in, covered in blood.

Jiang Ying led people to immediately surround him. The guard immediately stepped back, knelt down in front of the temple, and shouted loudly. "Your Majesty, the Assassin has been killed. Your Majesty, please rest assured. ”

All the maids breathed a sigh of relief, and their faces showed bright smiles. Even the head maid, Lu Shushen, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, saluted, and when she spoke to Ye Daidu, there was a hint of a smile on her face.

"Your Highness, don't panic. The madman has been killed. It's almost time, please go back and rest. ”

Hearing this, Ye Daiwan still felt a little uneasy. It always feels like it's not that simple. Even if he wanted to kill a waste emperor like her, it would take a lot of money to choose a place like the palace to do it, and she didn't think that someone who could spend such a big price would give up so easily.

But it was clear that everyone was at ease, and no matter what she said at this time, they would not take it to heart. When you are an emperor, there are probably not many people who are so wretched. Ye Daiwan smiled bitterly, and seeing that everyone was calm, she had no choice but to wave her hand and ask them to retreat.

The Zuo Fengchenwei, named Jiang Ying, had a trace of hesitation on his face, and his footsteps stopped slightly. Ye Daiwan immediately ignored the head maid Lu Shushen's gaze and left him behind. "The general stayed. ”

"Your Majesty is falsely praised. The minister is just a mere Zuo Fengchenwei, and he doesn't deserve to be a general of His Majesty. Jiang Ying turned her face slightly and explained seriously. Ye Daiwan inexplicably felt that the other party was shy. Jiang Ying continued. "Your Majesty, I think that the night attack is not over yet, and please be careful and vigilant. ”

Ye Daiwan knew that the other party was kind, but she didn't know why her heart began to be angry. Please be careful of herself, what do you want them to do with the Praetorian Guards? But Ye Daiwan couldn't refute him like this, he was also a son of a big family, and coming here to be a Praetorian Guard was just officialdom gilded. What can she do with him?

At this moment, there was a sound of fighting outside the hall, and it suddenly seemed to fall from the sky. Jiang Ying immediately shouted, and was about to leave the hall. "Your Majesty is at ease, and the minister will go to find out the situation. The long knife came out of its sheath, and in the dim candlelight, it flashed an astonishing chill, Ye Daiwan looked at the knife, and couldn't help but shudder.

This knife has killed people.

Only such a sharpened knife can have such a fighting spirit. Ye Daidu's blood was surging, and she wished that she could carry a knife like this and fight happily. Although she is a daughter, she never respects the difference between men and women, just because she is on her own. Her father never relied on her for two lifetimes, so she had to be independent. A woman who lives on her own naturally has no respect for patriarchy.

Ye Daiwan was really fed up with her weak appearance and had to rely on others. If she has a knife and a martial arts, even if it is a three-legged cat kung fu, she wants to rush to the front and swing the knife herself, slashing her enemies, such as Mulan joining the army, dying thousands of troops in battle, and fighting in blood, how happy it is. And she can only sit here, terrified, like a mouse in a dark cave, how sad and lamentable!

Woman, woman!

She was a woman but she wanted to ascend to the throne, if it weren't for this, how could they have tried their best to kill her, regardless of her image and hole cards? Since she is an empress, she will die like an emperor and be dignified.

"Go, fetch my sword. Ye Daiwan said to the chief maid.

The maid's face turned white with fright, not even a trace of blood, but she still stuck to her ridiculous principles. "No, Your Highness, you can't ......"

"Go, get my sword!" Ye Dai shouted.

"No. Lu Shushen, the head maid, was shocked by her, staggered over, picked up the decorative sword hanging on the wall in the inner room, and handed it to Ye Daiwan in person. Although she was terrified, she persisted in admonishing her. "Your Highness, let's avoid it. Just leave it to General Jiang here. It's just too dangerous. Your Highness ......"

"I know. I know what you guys think. I'm just a woman, and it's ridiculous to dance with a knife and a gun. Ye Daiwan pulled the sword out of its sheath.

This sword is not just a decorative saber. This sword has slain enemy generals, and it has also slashed corrupt officials, and the blade has been opened with blood. This sword, named Heavy Eagle, was left by the first empress and followed her into battle. Every subsequent empress used it as a sword to show her determination.

Ye Daiwan is the fourth owner of this sword. Fourth, the sound is the same as death. The most unlucky. But Ye Daiwan felt that this did not mean that she was destined to be born, but that she wanted to die and be reborn. The empress's ascension to the throne is often accompanied by bloody rain, since they are all dead, let her use this sword to fight her way out.

Ye Daiwan raised her sword. The cold light fills the room. She took a deep breath and said to the crowd. "I'm just a woman. However, Emperor Wujing was just a woman, she could get on the horse to kill the enemy and pacify the four seas; Emperor Wenhui was just a woman, she could argue with her tongue and quell the rebellion of the Five Marquis; Emperor Chengmin was just a woman, she could use her body as a banner to quell the rebellion of Luoyang. ”

"Now I'm just a woman, let's see, where can I, the empress, go?" Ye Daiwan looked at everyone's frightened expressions indifferently, and continued with a sword. "I know you don't want to die. At this moment, the Assassin must not be here to kill a nobody. Don't worry, if you die, it's just me. If you are afraid, retreat into the inner chamber and lock the door. ”

"Your Highness!" exclaimed the crowd.

"Your Highness, no. "The head maid, Lu Shushen, wants to stop her. "It's just too risky. Your Highness should take refuge in the inner room. ”

This maid is still a little loyal, otherwise she wouldn't have reached this point and still insisted on admonishing her, but Ye Daiwan didn't want to entangle with her anymore. "Go in, Shroud. ”

"Your Highness......" Lu Shushen, the head maid, wanted to say something, but was forcefully pulled in by several maids. Lu Shushen is a daughter of a family, although she is a concubine, she is quite loved by her father, because she has to avoid the power of her mother-in-law to enter the palace, even so, her father still has a comprehensive plan for his beloved daughter.

Ye Daiwan knew it from knowing her last name. Even if Lu Shushen insisted on accompanying her, these maids would be desperate to take her to a safe place, because she had a good father. It's a pity that I don't have it, not in two lifetimes. Ye Daiwan pursed her dry lips and did not sigh.

Now is not the time to sigh. Ye Daiwan sat on a large high chair, holding the sword in both hands, and let it stand on the ground, waiting.

The door was slammed open. A black-clothed masked man was half covered in blood, the blood stains on a long sword were already red and black, and his eyes were full of murderous intent, he didn't say a word, and rushed over with his sword. Ye Daiwan just sat like this, motionless.

If Heaven were to choose a master for this country, then she would not be able to die!
