Chapter 196 Life and Death Trap

The wall that had just been closed was opened again, and it turned out that this mechanism was actually double-sided! Before Li Shuci could see the figure at the secret door, the man flew over and pulled the nearest wooden cloud back into the hole in the wall, and disappeared! The Buddhist shrine snapped and closed quickly, followed by another click, and Li Shuci threw himself in front of the Buddhist shrine and waved the statue of Guanyin, but there was no response! "What's the matter? The mechanism is stuck? The mechanism is locked up from the inside?"

Helian Tao grabbed her, "Let's go quickly, there should be more than one of them, this is a trap!"

"No...... No......" Li Shuci shook her head, tears flowed out of her eyes, it was she who didn't think about it, so she hurt Mu Yun, thinking of Fang Jin, she almost couldn't stand it, "I can't leave her alone, I can't lose any of you anymore!"

When Helian Tao heard her say 'you', a warm current crossed his heart, and he still persuaded: "These things we do, confront the Shen family, conspire with the emperor, are no different from marching and fighting, how can there be immortals in a war? We have to look at the overall situation...... If I die one day, you don't have to worry about me...... Just keep yourself alive!"

Li Shuci looked at Helian Tao seriously, for the first time since she was reborn, she felt so vulnerable, and tears fell down her tears: "I have to save her!"

Helian Tao opened his mouth, "Xiao Wu, you listen to me, you calm down first, it's obviously you who he wants to arrest." If you go now, all three of us will have to die. Shen Yuan is a cunning person, he will never do useless things! He caught Mu Yun by mistake, and he won't do anything for the time being, he will only threaten you with it, let's go back one step earlier and make plans again!"

Li Shuci trembled all over, his whole body was numb, and his legs were so stiff that he could barely take a step. Helian Tao endured the severe pain and picked her up, and ran all the way back to the Wind Garden. The courtyard of Li Shuci's boudoir was in the innermost part of the Wind Garden, and the green pigeons were anxiously gathering in the courtyard, and they were all startled when they saw a strangely shaped shadow in the dark night rushing towards this side.

Helian Tao walked in, and Qingge saw the situation clearly, "Girl, what's wrong with the girl!" Helian Tao didn't answer, and rushed directly into the inner room.

In the inner room, a Tsinghua peerless figure stood in front of the table, heard the movement and turned around, and saw Li Shuci being held in Helian Tao's arms, and his face changed. "Aci?"

Li Shuci's face turned pale, and she slowly raised her head, she didn't dare to speak, for fear that she would cry as soon as she spoke. Seeing that the Confucian King was waiting here, Helian Tao put Li Shuci down with some embarrassment, helped her to be stable, and then greeted: "She's fine......" Before the words could be spoken, blood choked in his throat and coughed violently.

Qingge heard that Li Shuci was fine, so he let go of his heart and raised his throat again, only to find that Helian Tao was actually seriously injured, and hurriedly shouted to Xue Xin and Lan Xin to take medicine and boil water, "Quick! Help Shizi lie down first, don't move! There was so much blood shed? What happened to Mu Yun? What about her?

Helian Tao looked at the Confucian King who was comforting Li Shuci, and said in an extremely weak voice: "She was captured by Shen Yuan...... There is a secret passage mechanism in the temple ......"

Qingge was using scissors to reduce Helian Tao's clothes, and when he heard this, his hand trembled, and the cold scissors shrank his shoulders, and he lost a lot of blood from the wound, "Your Royal Highness, right...... I'm sorry......" Qingge shrunk his shoulders, covered his mouth with one hand, and choked in his throat, Helian Tao knew that the relationship between them was very deep, and he hurriedly said: "Don't worry, Mu Yun will be fine for the time being, Shen Yuan is not a simple person, he will not do anything to Mu Yun in order to vent his anger, he will use this matter to blackmail Xiao Wu, so let's prepare to fight a tough battle next." ”

Helian Tao is actually accustomed to life and death, if it were him, he would give up a capable subordinate to protect the overall situation, I believe that anyone who is always in the whirlpool of the current situation will do so. But if Li Shuci wants to save people, he will not sit idly by. She was right, she had to save her, and she couldn't give up any of them. "You also persuade Xiao Wu, we will definitely have a way. Qingge nodded in response, covered his face and was silent for a while, and then raised his head almost calmed down, and continued to treat Heliantao's wounds with red eyes, Heliantao couldn't help but look at Qingge differently, such a capable and calm girl is really rare.

Li Shuci had also breathed a sigh of relief, "No matter what method you use, you have to rescue Mu Yun!"

The Confucian King put his finger under Li Shuci's eyes, caught her last tear, and said, "Everything has me, you can rest assured." ”

Helian Tao choked back when he wanted to accept the words, and looked down at his bloodstained hands. Li Shuci said: "We have to let the prince move quickly, let Concubine Hui enter the game, and muddy the water, Shen Yuan may not have so much time to calculate Mu Yun's affairs, we have to buy time." Lord, what's wrong with you?" Li Shuci didn't tell the Confucian King about his discussion with Helian Tao about the Six Princes, and now everything the Confucian King did was to help her, as well as the truth about Concubine De's death. She felt that the Confucian king would not want to get involved in this great dispute. She didn't want to drag him down.

The Confucian King looked at Li Shuci, her undried tears were resolute and surging in the light, she was in a trap, she had never been depressed and weak, but today she was out of shape for a servant girl, her special and her affection was so deep that everything she did always surprised and admired him, originally ...... He was in a trance for a moment, didn't continue to think about it, and said: "Concubine Hui's senior brother Liang Youxian, the most profitable under his subordinates to inspect Cao Wu Hu Wei, escort Yun Tong sentenced He Chang and the two, holding the world's money and grain in his hands, in charge of the top priority in Cao Yun affairs, Liang Youxian has been with these two people for nearly twenty years since he served as the governor of Cao Yun, but I didn't expect that they were also members of the Shen family, after our news was secretly released to Liang Youxian, Liang Youxian only hesitated for a day, and then took the design from the mistakes of the two, and now the vacancy is a person trusted by the king. ”

"I didn't expect the prince's movements to be so fast. Li Shuci didn't explain to him how he knew these things, and the Confucian king didn't ask tacitly. This is also one of the reasons why Li Shuci feels very comfortable getting along with the Confucian king.

"Fan Yihong, the general of Cangzhou Che Cavalry, can be regarded as half of Yang Yan's mentor, he saved a woman in his early years, and sent her to Shen Mansion when he returned to Beijing to report on his work. Calculate the time, it happened to be when Queen Shen entered the Shen Mansion, he had affection for Queen Shen, and he was very affectionate, but it was a pity that Queen Shen did not enter the palace for a long time, and then he also had dealings with him, Yang Yan went all the way to Cangzhou back then, I am afraid that Queen Shen secretly intended to guide. ”

The voice of the Confucian King was not slow, but Li Shuci was shocked when she heard it, she could never have imagined that the Confucian King could investigate the events of more than ten years ago so carefully in such a short period of time...... There seem to be a lot of talented people in his hands, but he has been excluded by various forces since he was a child, and Concubine De Niangniang went early, how did he manage this force?

"Also, Qiu Ying next to Shen Jiayi is a dead soldier trained by Queen Shen, there are four such secret piles, Yuan Shuang is dead, Qiu Ying is also suspicious, I believe that Shen Jiayi will do it soon. The remaining summer stars, the winter solstice two. The winter solstice has already entered the Five Princes' Mansion, and Xia Xing has not yet found out where he is. Moreover, Empress Shen did personally transfer a maid into the palace back then, and this palace maid was named Dou'er. The dossier left behind back then has been destroyed, but, by chance, the little eunuch who was taken care of by Dou'er still left her portrait in his hand. It has been confirmed that Dou'er is Gu Rou, and I am afraid that Queen Shen is the orphan of the previous dynasty. ”

Speaking of the princess of the previous dynasty, Li Shuci suddenly thought of Concubine De, the king and Concubine De had a deep affection, regardless of the opposition of the courtiers, although he did not establish the Confucian king as the prince, but he has always been reused. Could it be that he secretly cultivated some power for him? So does the king still insist on wanting the Confucian king to succeed to the throne?" "Then there are any files of the former dynasty in the palace......?"

"My mother's palace has been empty for many years, and only me and the king can enter it. Last night, I found a bracket in the walls of my mother's palace, which contained a genealogy of the clan. There are only two names in my mother's life, one is my mother, Gurzhen. The other seems to have been added later, and is called Gurya. Written below the name of Princess An Yao, a member of the royal family, it must be an authentic royal bloodline, much more noble than my mother's bloodline. In the previous dynasty, there was an empress who inherited the throne. ”

Li Shuci looked at the Confucian King and had a hint of doubt about what he said about 'last night'. But he didn't say anything. Anyone has a secret, maybe he thinks it is more appropriate to tell this news at this time, not to mention that she has just confirmed that Empress Shen is this Gurya princess. In this way, Empress Shen's ultimate goal is to restore the country. is to be the empress, not to let her son Shen Yuan succeed to the throne. ”

"Judging by her actions, this man must be a proud and secretive person, and with such great ambitions, I am afraid that things will be as you expected. ”

Li Shuci didn't have the heart to think about anything else now, she had to hurry up and Mu Yun rescued her: "Are the people around the prince credible? I'm afraid the prince's side will stimulate Liu Fu." ”

King Ru glanced at her deeply, and the corners of his lips curved slightly upward, "It's impossible to say now, when you marry into the palace, everything must be clear." ”

Li Shuci's face turned red, and he turned his head to look away in embarrassment, and saw that Helian Tao, who had already bandaged, also looked at her, looking at each other, Helian Tao's face was bloodless, and the whole person was almost dried up into a piece of rotten wood. Only then did she remember that Helian Tao was seriously injured because of her, so she hurriedly got up and went over: "You...... Your hurt ......"

Helian Tao grinned in her anxious and guilty eyes, adjusted the arc again, deeply hid the meaning of that wry smile, and said: "I'm fine, it's not just that I happened to puncture a place with a lot of blood, and the blood flow is too much." Go back and eat something good, and I'll make it up in a few days. ”

Qingge looked at Helian Tao in surprise, such an injury is not serious, what is serious? Death is considered a serious injury? She looked at the prince, then at her own girl, and then at the Confucian King who did not leave Li Shuci, and suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart.
