Text Chapter 146 The Confucian Princess (2) [Second Update]
Several people were stunned when they heard the voice, and when they saw that it was the Confucian King, they were suddenly silent, Li Shuci looked at him with a frosty face, and secretly shouted that it was not good, is there any secret in this place, can you set foot at will......?" I ......"
Just thinking about how to explain, the Confucian King moved and came to Li Shuci, Yu Baochan saw this situation, was stunned for a moment, dragged a few girls and flashed to the side, with a look of expression How did you provoke this evil god, I can't save you. Then he retreated far away. Li Shuci was speechless, and the voice of the Confucian King came from above his head, "What are you doing here?"
"There's not a lot of people here, I'm ...... I was a little depressed, so I came over for a walk......" Li Shuci looked at the Confucian King inexplicably and replied. She always felt that the Confucian King looked at her today was a little wrong.
"Depressed?" King Ru frowned slightly, and there was a faint smile in his eyes, "Is it because of the king's choice of concubine?"
"Huh?" Li Shuci was stunned, "What ......?"
The smile in the Confucian King's eyes faded, and then he changed to a frosty face, and he remembered the scene when Shen Yuan had just pestered Li Shuci, "Is it because of Shen Yuan?"
"You...... Have you seen it all?" Li Shuci didn't know why, and his heart was a little weak. The Confucian King's expression became cold, and Li Shuci hurriedly said, "It's not because of this ......"
The Confucian King raised his eyebrows, and looked at Li Shuci for a long time, obviously waiting for her explanation.
Li Shuci didn't know what she was embarrassed about, and in the face of this moody god, she had a deep sense of powerlessness, and said, "Alas, it's inexplicable...... Irritable ......"
The surrounding branches have already pulled out green shoots, the sun is abundant on the mountain, and the growth is more lush, the atmosphere between the two is a little weird, Li Shuci secretly thought to himself whether to say something, and then heard the voice of the Confucian King still coming above her head: "I have already talked to Yang Yan." ”
Li Shuci looked up at him in amazement, her forehead slammed into his chin, she was suddenly at a loss, and subconsciously wanted to reach out but felt wrong, her two paws were raised in the air and slashed around, and she kept saying, "Lord Wang, you, are you okay, I, I didn't mean to...... Does it hurt or not......"
The Confucian King looked at her and was stupid again, and the laughter in his eyes couldn't be stopped, so he grabbed her hand and laughed.
The Confucian King has a complicated background, he has been criticized since he was a child, Concubine De Niangniang's body has changed, after his unfortunate death, his character is more cold and silent, and he will not laugh with others, even if he is in a good mood, he only moves the corners of his lips slightly, she has known the Confucian King for half a year, although she has seen him touch the corners of his lips many times, but it is the first time to see him laugh so heartily, I can't help but be stunned.
The handsomeness of the Confucian king always has an unstained atmosphere, so that Li Shuci does not dare to get too close, it seems that such a person is too easily disillusioned, and the small shallow brown tear mole seems to be proof. However, at this time, such a smile bloomed on his face, as if the light of heaven and earth was concentrated here, and kept beating between his eyebrows, dazzling her.
She stared at the person opposite, as if looking at all the beauty in this world, he was so close to her, so close.
The Confucian King regained his composure in her gaze, but his eyebrows were filled with infinite joy, and he whispered to the attendant standing not far away, "Go and call back to your aunt, and say that the matter has been decided." ”
Only then did Li Shuci realize that there were other people around, and his right hand was still in his palm. She pumped her hand in a panic, pushed her sideburns behind her ears, turned her face to look at her feet, her whole person was red from head to tail, and asked casually, "What to set?"
Yu Baochan's nerves were as thick as chopsticks, and when she saw this, she just secretly laughed and tried her best to suppress her laughter. And Qingge and Mu Yun are much more aware of Li Shuci's situation and marriage, and they both know that it is impossible for her and Yang Yan. Seeing this scene, they couldn't help but smile at each other, and looked at the two of them in surprise.
The king of Confucius did not answer, but pulled her forward, and the green pigeon fell far behind.
"Lord Wang. Li Shuci asked softly, "Where are we going?"
"The trail can be detoured back from the front. The Confucian King's expression returned to indifference, and he explained, as if what had just happened had not happened.
How did she forget that he was going to choose a concubine today, just now he said that it was decided, why was she so stupid...... Thinking so, the foot paused. The Confucian King turned to look at her: "What's wrong?"
There are quite a few spring flowers in the woods that are already half-blooming, well-known or unknown. There are also birds returning to their nests in the forest, bustling and lively, but her heart is quickly cooled down. Qiang smiled: "It's nothing, the prince said that he talked to Yang Yan, how did it turn out ......?"
Yu Baochan and a few girls were laughing and chasing in the distance, holding more or less flowers in their hands.
"With Yang Tingyu in our hands, we can't help the Yang family not to compromise, Yang Yan is a smart person, he knows how to choose. ”
Li Shuci is silent, it is still the same result as in her previous life, she is still the one who was abandoned.
The Confucian King looked at her expression and said: "Don't worry, without the help of the Yang family, the Shen family is not so easy to initiate, what you told me before, I have already started to do it, I believe that a large number of people will soon be freed from the Shen family's domination, however, this matter, with my identity, will be suspected of forming a party, and He Liantao will have to come forward." The Helian family was ordered by the emperor to investigate the matter of Empress Shen back then, and it was only appropriate to do this. ”
Li Shuci nodded: "What the prince said is true." ”
"Look, there!" Yu Baochan suddenly exclaimed.
A strange creepy cry came from above. A pair of huge wings swept over the heads of the people!
Laughing Owl!
Before Li Shuci could recover from her shock, she suddenly heard a sharp whistling sound stabbing towards them, just like the sound of her being shot in the snowy mountains and forests in her previous life.
Mu Yun's complexion changed, and he lifted his body and flew towards Li Shuci.
However, it was too late, countless thin black and tough iron cables hung down from the mountain wall, and on each iron cable there were several black-clothed assassins, and the crossbow arrows in their hands rained down, and Mu Yun was blocked from the rain of arrows, and there was no way to get close to Li Shuci. Fortunately, the Confucian King was also extremely powerful, and he shot down the arrows one after another with a wave of the software in his hand, protecting Li Shuci in his arms.
In a few breaths, the guards who protected the Confucian King in the shadows rushed into the rain of arrows from all directions, greatly relieving the pressure on the Confucian King, but he still underestimated the other party's determination to kill him. Black-clad assassins continued to descend the mountain wall, strangled with the guards. Everywhere there was the clanging sound of bowstrings plucking and the golden sound of weapons clashing.
This is a long-planned assassination!
The news of the Confucian king's choice of concubine is known to the world. The Blessing Palace was built on a mountain, and these people came down from the steep stone wall over the mountain. It is conceivable that the other party has already made all preparations. The long wind whistled through the mountains and forests, the sharp whistling sound of arrows swished in Li Shuci's ears, and the figure of the Confucian King kept changing, and she had begun to feel dizzy.
The man in black completely ignored everything else, and went forward to besiege the Confucian king fiercely, and the Confucian king was forced to retreat little by little with Li Shuci, after all, the Confucian king's guards were well-trained, and they desperately fought for the Confucian king in an instant. The Confucian King hugged Li Shuci and turned around and drilled into the dense forest behind him, and there was a popping sound of flesh being pierced from behind, Li Shuci curled up in the arms of the Confucian King and clenched his teeth, trying his best to control his emotions and not let himself scream, if there was a slight mistake in such a joint, the two of them would die without a place to be buried.
The Assassin crossed the mountain, with a limited number of arrows on his body, and as soon as the initial attack passed, the pursuit suddenly slowed down, and the Confucian King did not stop for a moment, shuttling through the dense forest. In such a terrain, the enemy is not easy to pursue with all his strength, but there are still a few people who are attacking unabated, following closely, Li Shuci's ear power is different from ordinary people, she carefully distinguishes the movement behind her, and whispers to the Confucian king: "There are five people behind." ”
The Confucian King frowned, lifted the strength under his feet, flew around and turned around, and ran deeper into the mountains and forests.
"Be careful!"
As the two of them turned, a crossbow arrow broke through the air, and Li Shuci shouted, "Dodge to the right!"
The Confucian king did not hesitate to believe Li Shuci, and after they dodged, the crossbow arrow was nailed to a tree beside them with a clang.
The other party used a heavy bow and crossbow, which had a very long range, but fortunately, it could only send one at a time, giving Li Shuci time to identify and remind, and after avoiding a few arrows in a row, Li Shuci felt that he could distinguish more and more clearly, and the people behind him were gradually thrown away. She whispered, "There's another person in the back." ”
The Confucian king jumped a few times, and the two hid in a big tree, but fortunately, the trees in the depths of the mountain forest were already quite lush, barely able to cover the figures of the two. The Confucian King drew a dagger from the side of his boot and waited with bated breath. In a moment, a man in black with a crossbow bolt caught up and swept forward from under the tree where they were hiding, and the Confucian king saw the opportunity and projected the dagger in his hand.
Li Shuci was covered with sweat, and the Confucian King jumped down from the tree with her in his arms, her body was unstable, and she fell to the side.
Li Shuci exclaimed in surprise and hugged him, so that the two would not fall to the ground heavily. "Lord Wang?"
A layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on the Confucian king's forehead, and Li Shuci helped him lean against the tree, only to find that there was a deep knife wound on his left shoulder, which should have been cut by the assassin when he broke out of the encirclement, "Lord Wang, do you feel any other discomfort in your body, is this knife wound poisonous?"
King Ru looked at her with slightly red eyes, but he couldn't raise the slightest strength to speak, so he nodded slightly.
Li Shuci's heart tightened, and he was really poisoned. In fact, she had been mentally prepared for a long time, how could such a long-planned assassination not be poisonous. The other party will definitely use all means to put him to death. She's just a fluke.
