Chapter 19: Killing Opportunities

Forward? The people of Qin Tianjian hurriedly calculated it and said, "That will be fifteen days later." ”

Lu Zhi folded his hands and raised his chin at the kneeling master: "Why don't you go quickly?" ”

Mei Rui knelt below, unable to see the situation above, only heard a crisp sound, and the voice of Qin Tianjian came from the altar: "Cheng...... It became ......"

"Oh?" Lu Zhi said slowly, "Since the Emperor and the Queen of Heaven have agreed, then please ask Your Majesty to ......."

"Nonsense!" Empress Dowager Zhao shouted angrily beside her, "After fifteen days, isn't it that the funeral period of the first emperor is not even enough for three months?" Ridiculous! Since the beginning of the Great Jin Dynasty, which ancestor has had a funeral date of no less than June? Mourning is not allowed! ”

"Niangniang is angry," although Lu Zhi said this, there was no trace of sincerity and fear on his face, "The funeral day is determined by the ancestral system, and now the day of Emperor Huai's funeral has been divided, and it is the period of heaven. ”

"What is the destiny?" Empress Dowager Zhao looked at Lu Zhi's arrogant expression, and couldn't wait to crush his arrogant bone, "If you don't believe it, someone is coming!" The day previously selected by the Qin Tianjian will be re-divined for the mourning family! ”

The master knelt on the ground and said in fear: "Qi Yu Niangniang...... Such a great thing cannot be ...... again"

"Rubbish, a bunch of rubbish!"

The Queen Mother was furious, Lu Zhi raised her chin slightly, and King Xiang was silent beside her, looking thoughtfully at the group of diviners kneeling on the divination mat, the cold wind at the end of winter blew through her neck, and the little emperor suddenly said: "These things should be decided by me, why does the queen mother want to make decisions for me?" ”

Empress Dowager Zhao was stunned for a moment, the little emperor with a straight face was really presentable, five points like the first emperor, the corners of his mouth turned down: "Since the master has already decided that the day of the funeral will be the fifteenth day later, then it will be the fifteenth day later." ”

"But ......"

She wanted to say something, but Lu Zhen's voice sounded, and he made a gesture to the little emperor: "Your Majesty." ”

The voices sounded one after another, and even the king of Xiang beside him said lightly, and the Empress Dowager Zhao was so angry that she trembled, she really didn't give birth to herself, and even this kind of thing had to be done to the eunuch of Lu Zhen!

The little emperor looked a little tired, and he turned his head to look at Lu Zhen: "Where is Rui Rui?" I'm a little cold. ”

The immature voice came into Mei Rui's ears, she was kneeling at the forefront of the palace attendants, with a little emperor's cloak in the crook of her arm, listening to the little emperor calling him, she hurriedly got up and climbed the steps, and after saluting a few people on the stage one by one, she half-squatted down and tied the cloak for the little emperor.

There were two cyan ties in front of the cloak, and she tied a beautiful knot for the little emperor with her fingertips, and her hands were folded in front of her and she was about to retreat before she turned around, and the whistling wind suddenly had a hint of murder.

A diviner kneeling beside the master suddenly felt a blade from his wide sleeve, and the silver light was awe-inspiring, and he stabbed at the little emperor with a straight end. It was so fast that even Lu Zhi didn't have time to react, the cold light of the blade swept through the corner of his eyes, and Mei Rui didn't even think about it, and rushed straight up to block the knife for the little emperor.

The blade was embedded in her shoulder, and she was dizzy with pain, but she didn't forget to push the little emperor away, and pinched the tip of the knife with her other hand to prevent the person from pulling the knife out, baring her teeth and pulling out her voice: "What are you doing in a daze?" Escort! ”

There was a chaos on the altar in an instant, the pain from her shoulder made Mei Rui's ears buzz, Empress Dowager Zhao shouted in panic, Lu Zhi seemed to be beside her and scolded her, the little emperor seemed to be crying in her arms, she only felt that her hands were unconscious, her body was empty, as if she was being picked up.

The man's strength was so great that she had the illusion that she could rely on it. Mei Rui gritted her teeth and barely opened her eyes, and when she saw that noble face, she weakly shouted, "Lu Hujun." ”

Lu Zhi sighed, but no longer paid attention to her, he walked very quickly, but very steadily, as if he was afraid that she would suffer from the bumps, the pain was endless, Mei Rui was so painful that he no longer had the strength to speak, the bright sky light fell on his shoulder, and the winter snow was melting.

When she woke up again, she was lying on the bed, the soft gauze tent hung at both ends, and the splendid hibiscus on the top of the tent and the worried face of the little emperor jumped into view.

When the little emperor saw that she was awake, he was overjoyed, and his heart that was hanging high fell to the ground, and he grabbed her hand: "Rui Rui, you have finally woken up." ”

Mei Rui bared her teeth and said, "Your Majesty, there is a wound on the slave's hand......"

Her hand was cut because of holding the tip of the knife, and now it was wrapped in a thick layer of white veil, the little emperor hurriedly let go of her hand, rubbed his eyes, he just cried sadly, looking at the scene where Mei Rui was taken away by Lu Zhen, he felt that his heart and liver were hurting, he pouted, and the majesty of the confrontation with the Empress Dowager Zhao before was gone: "At that time...... At the time......"

He was grateful in his heart, after all, except for Lu Zhi in this palace, he no longer had anyone to trust, Mei Rui was just the reason for his willfulness at the beginning, he didn't expect her to sacrifice herself to save him, the little emperor straightened his face, and said to Mei Rui seriously: "Rui Rui, you have a meritorious escort, I want to reward you." ”

Mei Rui smiled gently: "Thank you, it's okay if you're okay." ”

In terms of meritorious deeds, if she refuses to resign, it seems that she is too pretentious, and the emperor's reward is nothing more than some gold and silver treasures, and she should like it very much when she takes it back to Huaizhu. Mei Rui looked at the little emperor's red eyes with pity, and asked, "Your Majesty has not been frightened, has he?" ”

"The bachelor's injury has not healed, and if he can say two words less, he will say two words less." Before her words fell, Lu Zhi walked in from outside, wearing a cross-collared wide-sleeved shirt that was particularly floating, he walked to the bed, standing beside the little emperor, Mei Rui raised his eyes with difficulty, and could only see the dark lines of his cuffs stretched and intertwined, thinking about the arms that were in a daze before, and for some reason some blood surged.

The surge of qi and blood is terrible, the wound on the shoulder seems to be pulsating, the pain is coming, she can't help but close her eyes, and hear the little emperor pulling the corner of his sleeve and shouting Lu Zhi, Lu Zhi hummed: "The minister prepared some refreshments for His Majesty, and asked Fu San'er to lead His Majesty to the side hall to suppress the shock." ”

The little emperor saw that Lu Zhi had something to say to Mei Rui, and agreed very insightfully, and called Rui Rui ten times before leaving, telling her to recuperate, Mei Rui responded with a smile: "The slave is injured, and I can't send my majesty xià." ”

"Just lie down." The little emperor waved his hand happily and followed Fu San'er to the side hall, and Lu Zhi also sent away the idle people next to him by the way, and only she and Lu Zhi were left in the huge hall.

Mei Rui's cheeks were still hot, and her consciousness was a little confused, and Lu Zhi sat on the edge of the bed without saying a word, which made her feel very embarrassed.

After a long time, when she was about to fall asleep, Lu Zhi suddenly said: "Today, thanks to the bachelor." ”

Mei Rui woke up suddenly, her whole body twitched, and she was involved in the injury and pain, she frowned, inhaled again and again in her mouth, Lu Zhi sat there and looked a little helpless, and when it was easy to relieve this moment, Mei Rui didn't dare to move, she slept there upright, and laughed: "The protector doesn't need to say thanks, this is what the slave should do." ”

He raised his eyes, as if to consider something: "May I ask, why did the bachelor do this?" ”
