Chapter 409: A few dead and one wounded
Liuli turned around from time to time, blocking their sight from looking at Su Zixu, and whispered, "Niangniang, someone is coming." ”
Su Zixu's footsteps faltered.
She turned around and found one of the concubines looking away in a panic, feeling a little funny.
Su Zixu gave Liuli a look, and Liuli was ordered to leave.
Su Zixu glanced down at the kite in his hand, and walked around to the rockery next to him.
The concubine behind her changed her face, looked around, and hurriedly followed.
The concubine walked behind the rockery, saw no figure, and frowned suspiciously.
She wondered, "Where did you go?"
Su Zixu walked up behind her and said with a smile: "Are you looking for this palace?"
The concubine was startled, and with a scream, the kite in her hand slid to the ground, stiff, her face was bruised, and she turned around tremblingly.
She tugged at the corners of her mouth and said embarrassedly: "Concubine Yue." ”
Su Zixu squinted at the kite she had dropped to the ground, and said confusedly, "What are you doing here?"
The concubine quickly picked up the kite, her face turned red, and she said, "Concubine, the concubine's kite accidentally flew here, and the concubine came to pick it up." ”
With that, she took a step and ran out in a hurry.
Su Zixu looked at her back, frowned slightly, and a strange feeling surged in her heart.
That concubine looks extremely wrong, what do you want to do to her?
Su Zixu walked out and looked sideways, but the concubine was gone.
Her eyes sank, and she was about to leave, when she saw a small corner of her clothes, lowered her head and laughed, and turned around and walked to the depths of the rockery.
When he came to the end, Su Zixu stopped and stood quietly, waiting for the person who was following him to make a move.
Half a sound, a slight hissing sound reached her ears, Su Zixu turned around, and three finger-sized cobras on the opposite rockery stared at her, as if catching prey, spitting snake hyacinth at her, with a fierce look on her face.
Su Zixu looked vigilant, stared at the two snakes with a gloomy face, and sneered.
She stretched out her hand and struck an internal force at the two snakes, who fell to the ground, and with a half-loud sound, they quickly crawled out in the opposite direction.
"Ahh "There was a hoarse, thrilling scream from the other side of the rockery.
After hearing the few screams, the concubines who were flying kites in the imperial garden stopped what they were doing, gathered next to Queen Liu, and looked in the direction of the rockery in puzzlement.
Empress Liu frowned and ordered a few palace people to go over and take a look, and after a while, a little eunuch ran back panting, and said in shock: "Mother... , there's... There are snakes. ”
Empress Liu's eyes sank, and she walked over there with the palace people.
As soon as Queen Liu approached the rockery, the screams came out again, and several palace people stood in front of Queen Liu, looking ahead vigilantly,
A little eunuch was about to walk over, and the body of a palace maid fell from behind the rockery. Her pupils were dilated, her eyes were white, and her whole body was bruised, but in the blink of an eye, her skin was as black as charcoal, and streams of dark red blood flowed out.
Several of the concubines screamed and fainted.
Suddenly, a snake quickly jumped out and pounced on Queen Liu.
The concubines and palace people fled in all directions, and Queen Liu stood still, waving a palm when the poisonous snake was still a hand's distance from her.
A strong internal force broke off the power of her palm, and her acupoint was stopped, and she stood motionless. The cobra seemed to be instructed by someone, aimed at Queen Liu, pounced with lightning speed, bit her arm, and then was slapped by someone, shrunk into a ball, flew out a few meters away, and died. Another snake, whose body was broken into dozens of pieces, flew out from behind the rockery.
Xing'er's pupils dilated, and she shouted: "Niangniang." ”
There was a mess in the Imperial Garden.
The moment Queen Liu fainted to the ground, she saw Su Zixu standing opposite her and smiling brightly, her eyes were hazy, and she fell into darkness in the blink of an eye.
……
Furen's face was anxious, and he said with an anxious expression: "Your Majesty, the last noble man was bitten by a poisonous snake and died. ”
Emperor Yan waved his hand to stop him and ordered, "You go and deal with it." ”
Furen raised his eyes and glanced at Queen Liu on the bed, and went down in response.
Su Zixu passed by Furen outside the door, and as soon as he walked into the house, he couldn't wait to speak: "Imperial Doctor Chang, how is the snake venom of the queen mother?"
Imperial Physician Chang slowly pulled out the silver needles on Queen Liu's hands and forehead, and when everything was dealt with, he wiped the sweat on his forehead and arched his hand: "Return to the emperor, return to Concubine Yue, the queen's poison was resolved in time, and she was temporarily out of danger of life, and in a few hours, she should be able to wake up." ”
Emperor Yan said: "Let the queen have a good rest, and I will go out to deal with some things first." ”
The people in the house slowly withdrew, and as soon as Emperor Yan walked outside, someone from the palace immediately stepped forward to report the matter of the rockery snake.
Emperor Yan said: "How did those two snakes appear?"
"Back to the emperor, those two snakes are from the palace of the last nobles, they should be... It was the last nobleman who brought them out, but he didn't expect to be bitten to death. ”
Su Zixu was puzzled: "Why do you raise poisonous snakes in the palace of the last nobleman, isn't it forbidden to raise these evil things in the harem?"
Emperor Yan turned his head to look at her, and said worriedly: "Xuxu, are you okay?"
Su Zixu shook his head.
Emperor Yan was in a hurry to go out to deal with things, and without saying a few words to her, he hurried to the Imperial Garden.
Su Zixu took Liuli back to the Living Palace.
As soon as she sat down, Liuli immediately asked, "Niangniang, you're not injured, are you?"
Su Zixu was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "It's not the palace that has something to do, it's Queen Liu." With that, he was silent.
Liuli pursed her lips, and stopped saying "Niangniang......"
Su Zixu glanced up at her, snorted coldly, and said without hesitation: "It was done by this palace, they didn't think about it, and they just smashed their heels." ”
Last time it was a blood lion, this time it was a poisonous snake, and Queen Liu's mind was really vicious.
Since she has shot at herself, how can she be worthy of them if she doesn't return the gift.
Liuli was dumbfounded.
Niangniang deliberately broke her away and went to the rockery alone, just to expose the face of the concubine, the concubine suffered by herself, Niangniang was not wrong.
Su Zixu thought back to what he had just seen, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.
Queen Liu also knows martial arts.
……
Yuxi said: "Niangniang, the poisonous snake bit five people to death. ”
"Five people?" Qi Guifei groaned for a while, puzzled, "There has never been a poisonous snake behind the rockery in the Imperial Garden, why is it so abnormal today?"
Yuxi was silent for a moment, a thought flashed in his heart, and the words in his mouth were about to come out.
Qi Guifei said, "What did you think of?"
Yuxi saw the clue and said loudly: "Niangniang, the slave and maid vaguely remember that at that time, Concubine Yue entered the back of the rockery, and the last nobleman followed. Could this matter have something to do with the last noble?"
Concubine Qi lowered her head and laughed a few times.
"Queen Liu, this is the design of the moon concubine, and she smashed her heels. ”
