Chapter 021: Crossing the Returning Pearls to the Nine
The stiffness when Alocasia was held by him at night, he didn't feel it, it really made him feel uncomfortable. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info thought how much the queen loved him at the beginning, but now it is awkward to be held by him. Qianlong couldn't help but reflect on himself, whether he had gone too far with the queen before. The answer he got was yes, and it made him sad.
Alocasia heard the people at the table talking about it, today is the festival day in this town, and the streets will be lively at that time, all kinds of performances, thinking that it is today, Qianlong was assassinated, and Ziwei blocked the knife.
She couldn't help but glance at Ziwei, saw the thin and delicate body of the weak willow supporting the wind, and sympathized with her. With this small body, Alocasia is really worried about her. Ziwei was a little creepy by Alocasia's strange eyes, and the queen mother was twitching.
The folk celebration was very lively, and Qianlong and others naturally refused to miss it. But Alocasia didn't want to watch, she was a little worried about Yongxuan, so she had to order the guards to take care of him, for fear that the chaos would hurt him when the time came.
At this time, they came to the old couple who sold tea eggs. Qianlong seemed to be very interested: "Old man, how to sell this tea egg." The old man on the other side smiled: "Two pennies a piece, do you want to taste it?" Then he took the spoon and went to the pot to fish. At this time, Alocasia's heart was about to rise to his throat.
In the next second, the old man violently overturned the stall, and the hot water was almost splashed on Qianlong and Alocasia. Qianlong took a step back and blocked it with his sleeve. In the mist, the old man and his wife quickly pulled out two knives from the bottom of the pot and stabbed at Qianlong.
Qianlong was shocked, he had no weapon on him, so he had to pull out a folding fan to block the two of them. Fortunately, his martial arts are not bad, and he has not been wasted in all these years as an emperor, so he escaped this blow. Seeing this scene, the ministers of the guards behind still didn't understand what was going on, it was the people of the White Lotus Sect, and they all squeezed desperately to this side. At this time, the people in the honor guard of the parade took off their hoods, drew all kinds of weapons from their waists, and rushed over and shouted: "Kill the dog emperor." ”
There was a mess at the scene, and the ordinary people who were originally watching the performance fled in all directions, which just caused a lot of resistance to the guards who wanted to squeeze this way. And there are only two people on Qianlong's side, Alocasia doesn't know martial arts at all, it's a complete burden, Qianlong holds Alocasia with one hand and fights with the other, which is very difficult. After a few rounds, he was more or less slightly injured, but he still refused to let go of Alocasia.
Alocasia himself tried to cooperate as much as possible, trying to reduce his burden. But the people of the White Lotus Sect saw this point and found that Alocasia was Qianlong's weakness, and they all mentioned stabbing at Alocasia. Qianlong began to scramble, revealing flaws.
At this time, a knife stabbed out from behind Qianlong, but he didn't see it at all. Ziwei, who was not far away, found it with sharp eyes and shouted: "The emperor is careful" shouted and pounced. Alocasia turned his head and naturally saw it. She uncontrollably broke away from Qianlong's arm, and without knowing where she got the strength, she reflexively rushed to her back. The knife thudged into her chest. Alocasia was in severe pain and fainted.
Seeing this, Qianlong began to panic, kicked the knife away, hugged Alocasia's fallen body, and didn't care that there were other assassins behind him.
Fortunately, at this time, there were already guards crowding over, protecting Qianlong from fighting with Alocasia and the White Lotus Sect.
Not long after, the local prefect also came with guards: "The minister didn't know that the emperor was coming, and the rescue was late, so please ask the emperor to atone for his sins." ”
Qianlong's eyes were full of injured alocasias, how could he be in the mood to listen to him: "Doctor, why don't you come over and see the queen, what are you doing in a daze!" At this time, Imperial Physician Hu hurriedly came from the crowd.
The Alocasia injury was not light, and the knife narrowly avoided the heart, but fortunately, there was no danger to life. When she opened her eyes, she only felt that her throat was dry, and she wanted to speak but she pulled the knife, so she had to hoarse her throat and make a mosquito-like voice: "Water, water." ”
At this time, Qianlong was lying on the side of the Alocasia bed, and he was not asleep. I just heard the voice of Alocasia, and I was very surprised and panicked. Hurriedly woke up Ziwei, who was lying on the table asleep: "Ziwei, pour some water." Hearing this, Ziwei hurriedly poured a glass of water and cautiously wanted to feed it to the Alocasia, but the Alocasia couldn't drink it at all.
She was lying down, because of the injury in her chest, Ziwei couldn't help her up, and she couldn't drink while lying down, so there was no way.
Seeing this, Qianlong took the cup, took a sip of it himself, and then crossed the water with the lip flap of the alocasia. Although Alocasia was embarrassed, he also accepted it obediently.
The wound on his chest seemed to be hot, and the pain was scorching, and the alocasia was numb all over his body, which was very uncomfortable. Originally, this opportunity was Ziwei's, but the original owner's feelings for Qianlong were deep-rooted, and the line between life and death actually controlled Alocasia in turn. She felt scared to think about it now.
Alocasia found that he was actually greatly influenced by the original owner when he was doing the task, and it would be good if he could endure it, but it was indeed dangerous like this. Fortunately, she survived this time, and if this knife stabbed her to death, the mission would have failed.
Although Honglian did not say that she would be punished for failing the mission, she also said that there was a limit to her patience, and what this limit was, it could be once or twice. Alocasia couldn't have taken that risk.
Thinking of the task, Alocasia couldn't help but worry about Yongxuan, the situation was chaotic at that time, and I don't know if it was hurt. At this time, he could only ask Qianlong: "Yong, what about Yongxi?" Qianlong grabbed her hand and comforted: "Yongxuan is fine, but I'm a little scared, I guess it's good to get up after sleeping." ”
Alocasia was relieved now, Qianlong looked at her pale face and felt distressed for a while: "Is the wound painful?" ”
"Hmm," Alocasia snorted out of her nose in agreement. The Wulanala clan is delicate and expensive, although it is unsatisfactory in the palace, but how can it suffer like this. Although Alocasia herself is not very afraid of pain, she is also very difficult because of her body. Qianlong's eyes were full of pity, but he couldn't say anything comforting, he just wished that he was lying on the bed now.
Alocasia saw Qianlong's appearance in her eyes, and suddenly felt that now was a great opportunity to tell the truth, presumably Qianlong would no longer blame her for not reporting it. So he endured the pain, held Qianlong's hand, and said intermittently: "The concubine has something I want to tell the emperor, but I haven't been able to find a chance. ”
Qianlong looked at her struggling appearance, and only said distressed: "I'll wait for you to talk about everything."
Aloca insisted: "This matter is not trivial, the concubine is afraid that if she doesn't say it now, she won't have the courage to say it in the future." With that, he beckoned to Ziwei. Seeing this, Ziwei naturally knew what she was going to say, and her heart was excited and moved, the queen mother was now injured like this, but she also remembered her.
Alocasia looked at Qianlong: "I once told the emperor that Ziwei went to Beijing to find her father. After a pause, "Actually, what Ziwei is looking for is the emperor." Xia Ziwei is really Xia Yuhe's daughter. ”
