"Lord Wang! How are you, still here? Zhu Yan was surprised, the gossip between himself and his aunt, unconsciously, a few hours passed, and Tuoba Yuanqiong, in the end, how long had he been waiting here.

I saw that Tuoba Yuanqiong's face was much more ugly, and he frowned frequently at himself, his thin lips pursed into a straight line, and after a long time, he said disgustedly, "Have you cried?" ”

Don't start your head, Zhu Yan regretted being awkward, "No!" ”

"Really?" Thoughtfully, Tuoba Yuanqiong did not continue to dig into the roots, took Zhu Yanxi's hand, frowned again, and without saying a word, he tore off the cloak in an instant, without any tenderness at all, covered Zhu Yanxi's shoulders, the gentle evening breeze blowing, and the two of them under the sunset, with this palace, incompatible warmth, and vicious eyes in the distance, left with indignation.

"This king sends you back"

Zhu Yan Xi gathered his cloak, and unconsciously, the autumn dusk was already a little cool, "Lord, Yan Xi thinks, go and see Prince Wuhe." ”

"You can't die."

"The prince doesn't want to, Yan regrets going by himself."

"Whatever you want." Angry, Tuoba Yuanqiong flicked his sleeves and left, it was really uncertain, Zhu Yanxi sighed slightly.

In the huge palace, Zhu Yanxi realized that he couldn't remember the distance at all, so he called a little eunuch, "This father-in-law, where is Heyuan going?" ”

The little eunuch looked at Zhu Yanxi's outfit, caught a glimpse of the logo on the dark blue cloak, and respectfully led the way for Zhu Yanxi.

At this moment, Heyuan is no longer as good as the people coming and going just now, Zongzheng is happy to be leisurely, drinking tea and enjoying the scenery, and there is no attitude of being sick at all.

"Prince Muga, you're really at ease." Zhu Yanxi said with a smile, and walked into the small garden with a light step.

"What did Yan Xi say, Prince Ben, now he is a patient, this is comfortable, where can he go?" Hooking the corners of his mouth, Zong Zheng Wuhe blinked his eyes, looking innocent.

Looking at Zhu Yanxi's cautious appearance, Zongzheng Wuhe smiled and said, "This and the inside and outside of the garden, there are all people from this prince, Yan Xi can rest assured, not a single fly can fly in." ”

"Sooner on." Only then did Zhu Yanxi take the teacup handed over by Zong Zheng Wuhe and sat down on the stone bench on the side.

"Brother Zongzheng, what's the matter with your injury?" Zhu Yanxi frowned, he originally reached an agreement with Zongzheng Wuhe, Zongzheng Wuhe's poisoning was expected, but Zongzheng Wuhe, but he did not follow the steps of the original plan, and the sudden injury and poisoning made him mistakenly think that all this was really happening, and Zongzheng Wuhe's trading request to wake up completely deviated from the original plan.

For such an accident, although he was puzzled, he never had the slightest suspicion of Zongzheng Wuhe.

Taking a sip of tea, Zongzheng Wuhe looked at Zhu Yanxi with relief, such a confidant and trust, he sure enough, did not have a wrong heart.

"Because, there is no need anymore, I will go to the icing on the cake." The faint words were said concisely.

Zhu Yan was stunned and looked at Zong Zheng Wuhe in confusion.

"Yan Xi, who taught you your painting and dancing?" Zongzheng Wuhe asked, and in his words, the tone of appreciation was not disguised at all.

"My mother~"

Zong Zheng Wuhe smiled lightly and pointed to Zhu Yanxi's eyebrows, "Presumably, this is also your mother's?" ”

Surprised, Zhu Yanxi met Zongzheng Wuhe's smiling eyes, "Brother Zongzheng, how do you know Lu Dao?" ”

Because, since you appeared, the expression of your emperor has always been on your face, from time to time. I originally suspected that the emperor would not think about you as he shouldn't, but that kind of loneliness and sadness made me suspicious, especially when I brought up the matter of marrying the concubine, I found out that it was easy to find out that it was angry and murderous.

Zongzheng Wuhe frowned, but, Yan Xi, you don't love anyone, do you? The emperor can't wait for you to grow old with his children, and raise your eyebrows, especially if the object is Tuoba Yuanqiong.

"Brother Zongzheng, how did you find out?" Zhu Yanxi exclaimed.

With bitterness, Zong Zheng Wuhe smiled bitterly and sighed slightly, "Yan Xi can know that Lu Dao is the most ruthless emperor's family?" ”

"Every household, whether it is a big family with high walls or a towering deep palace, I am afraid that if there are interests, there will be endless struggles." Zhu Yan cherished it and nodded towards Zongzheng Wuhe.

"I, the position of the prince, since I was sensible, has been bloody and bloody, there are endless battles in the open and dark, and I have escaped from the death several times, and if I don't practice this eye that sees everything, how can I sit firmly in the position of the prince and sit back and relax?"

"If you want to survive, you have to fight, it turns out that it's not just Yan Xi who has experienced it, I'm afraid, Brother Zongzheng is even more difficult than Yan Xi."

"So, all I can do for you is to stall." Zongzheng Wuhe didn't say anything more, and looked at Zhu Yanxi complicatedly, "If you don't love, listen to my advice, stay away from Tuoba Yuanqiong, and follow me back to the country of Takimei, I will definitely be able to protect you." ”

"Brother Zongzheng, you're too worried." Zhu Yanxi shook her head, "Not to mention anything else, my relatives, the friends I care about, are all here, how can I let it go, I can leave, not to mention, I don't have a clue about my mother's death." ”

"So, Tuoba Yuanqiong, is your only choice?" frowned disapprovingly, "Perhaps, you should take a look at this, and it's not too late to decide."

The medicine bottle appeared in the hand of Munemasa Muga.

"From the Qiongwang Mansion and the East and West, under the whole world, except for Tuoba Yuan Qiong, no one else will have this strange material and earth."

Zhu Yanxi was slightly stunned, "Is there anything peculiar about this medicine?" ”

"Prozac blood is the most critical thing in this, do you know what kind of people will have Prozac blood"

Zhu Yanxi shook his head, he didn't know anything about this pharmacology.

"I have the only poison pill in the country of Takimei, and this Tuoba Yuanqiong's mother concubine does have this Baizao blood, and the affection of love is very affectionate, but I am afraid that Tuoba Yuanqiong is also worried that you will damage your body by using this thing, and in one fell swoop, supplemented by Prozac blood, to ensure your safety."

Although Zhu Yanxi doesn't understand pharmacology, this is this Prozac blood, if it is as the name suggests, I am afraid, it is not such a simple medicinal material, it seems to see Zhu Yanxi's doubts, Zongzheng Wuhe nodded, "This Prozac blood, only the virgin blood of the royal concubine, can be combined with the secret medicine to become Prozac blood, so I will say, except for Tuoba Yuanqiong, the whole world, I am afraid that there is no second person who can have this texture prescription." ”

A few simple and clear words, but Zhu Yanxi's heart couldn't stop churning, such precious, for what will be used on his body, and Tuoba Yuanqiong, why should he play the role of Tianwu to get close to himself?

The more I thought about it, the more the lines between the eyebrows became more and more tight, "Yan Xi, you want to think about it." ”

"I know Lu Dao, Xie Lu thank you, Brother Zongzheng."

"Takimei country, you will be your support at any time, as long as you have me for a day." Zhu Yanxi only thought that Zongzheng Wuhe was a confidant to him, but he never found out that when he turned around and left, he was extremely suppressed by Zongzheng Wuhe's feelings of admiration.

Walking out of the garden, Zhu Yanxi was caught off guard and was stunned, the palace, after all, is different from the outside of the palace, accustomed to the protection of Xiaonan Xiaoxi, coupled with the peace of mind that the palace is heavily guarded, Zhu Yanxi lost consciousness like this.

Thick smoke billowed out, falling wood, smashed into Zhu Yanxi's arm, pain, evoked Zhu Yanci who should have been unconscious, opened his eyes painfully, the effect of the drug, made Zhu Yanxi still dizzy, the surrounding scene, Zhu Yanxi was secretly surprised, the smoke, choked Zhu Yanxi coughed, and there were raging fires everywhere, it seems that if it weren't for this accident, I'm afraid that I would have died a long time ago.

Regardless of the pain in his arm, Zhu Yanxi could only grit his teeth, tightened his cloak, and ran out towards the sea of fire.

The embarrassment and the fresh air that had not been seen for a long time made Zhu Yanxi open his eyes, and when he heard that Tuoba Yuanqiong had broken into the sea of fire, Tuoba Minghan rushed to the prison in a hurry.

"Dome!" The emperor who approached in stride was already anxious, but Tuoba Yuanqiong's heart was hanging on the person in his arms.

coldly, "Erchen is fine." With his eyes full of worry, Tuoba Yuanqiong hurriedly carried Zhu Yanxi to the nearest dormitory, and placed Zhu Yanxi on the soft couch like a treasure that he was afraid of being broken if he was not careful.

"Yan'er, you're fine, right?"

The miserable white face, except for the pain of the arm being broken by the impact of the wood, Zhu Yanxi did not have too much damage, but Tuoba Yuanqiong's actions made Zhu Yanxi's heart turbulent.

Seeing that Zhu Yanxi pursed his lips and was silent, Tuoba Yuanqiong hurriedly examined, and when his eyes touched Zhu Yanxi's bloody arm, the killing intent burst out in the pupils of Youtan.

The emperor and the others, who were ignored and left behind, stepped into the inner room, and saw Tuoba Yuanqiong's back, bloodstained, "Come on, pass on the imperial doctor quickly." ”

"Lord Wang, I'm fine, you're injured?" Thinking of the danger just now, Zhu Yanxi looked at Tuoba Yuanqiong's face that was not quite right, and asked worriedly.

"This king has nothing to do, come, lie down quickly." Tenderness, on this originally cold face, infinitely soft, when the imperial physician hurriedly came, Tuoba Yuanqiong, but prevented the imperial physician from approaching.

"Qiong'er, your injury!" The emperor was anxious, and was a little annoyed by Tuoba Yuanqiong's stubbornness.

"Bandage Yan'er first."

"Lord Dome, your injuries are even more serious." Concubine Li said eagerly, "The emperor is worried about you, why should you~"

"This king said, bandage Yan'er, she is to this king, which is more important, this king knows it." looked at the emperor coldly, "This king can't keep his mother once, he will definitely not allow it, Yan Er will repeat the powerlessness of this king in his life!" ”

Looking at each other angrily, Tuoba Yuanqiong stared at the emperor, without the slightest retreat, even if the other party was the emperor who manipulated life and death, he fearlessly said, "Unless, this king is dead!" The categorical words shook the hearts of everyone present.

"Don't hurry up yet!" The emperor glared at the imperial physician and vented his anger, while Na Xin'er hurriedly explained to his subordinates and invited a few imperial physicians to come.

"Lord, I~" Zhu Yanxi's words to dissuade Tuoba Yuanqiong finally swallowed back in Tuoba Yuanqiong's firm gaze.

In the quiet room, the imperial doctor carefully medicated and bandaged Tuoba Yuanqiong and Zhu Yanxi, except for the sound of everyone's breathing, the air was suddenly terrifyingly quiet.

With the return of the guards, the news that no one survived in the prison made Tuoba Yuanqiong frightened, if he was one step late, or Yan Xi didn't run out in time, he, isn't it, will regret it for life?

"A good person, how can he be so embarrassed after reminiscing about the old days in this palace!" The Empress was the first to break the silence of the oppressive space.

"My sister also thinks it's strange, why did this Miss Zhu appear in the prison, and this prison, so coincidentally, ignited a fire, this Weiyang Palace and the prison are far from each other." Concubine Li stroked her chest, "It's terrible to think about, the prince of the dome ran in to save Miss Zhu so desperately, this affection is shocking to see this palace." ”

Li Concubine knocked on the side of the ground, this heavenly prison is heavy, no one, can enter, not to mention a little general's daughter, inexplicably appeared in the prison, and then the inexplicable prison fire, this strange, all of them led the spearhead, to Zhu Yanxi, seems to Tuoba Yuanqiong's affectionate feelings, but also reminded the emperor that his most beloved son, for such a woman, almost died, such a red face and trouble, Li Concubine is very calculating, it is really very fine.

"The guards of the prison, bring them to me." Tuoba Minghan's eyes sank.

As the news of the suicide of the leader of the guards on duty came, the other guard was sincerely afraid, and explained what he saw and heard in detail.

The spearhead of all this was directed at himself, and Zhu Yanxi, who had changed his clothes, walked out slowly. "If you guard the eldest brother, is it because Yan Xi bought off the head of the guards of your prison, just to go to the visit place and plot to murder my princess?"

"Miss Zhu, I really heard it at the time, you said that it was the queen's mother's approval, and you didn't personally give the princess a ride, and you were unwilling."

"So, as the emperor's loyal courtier, I regret that it violates the law of the country, why don't I see the guard brother and report it in time?" Zhu Yanxi smiled shallowly and looked at it lightly, with a righteous and awe-inspiring guard.

"This ~ lowly people are soft-spoken, and the orders of the leader are not daring to disagree."

The emperor looked at Zhu Yanxi, although his appearance was not similar, but he was like the shadow in his memory, smart and witty, and the emperor's sharp eyes swept over the concubine who was eager to interject, and acquiescedly recognized Zhu Yanxi's behavior.

"So, I don't know the big brother who guards the road, but do you remember how Zhu Yanxi dressed that day?" Zhu Yanxi's soft voice could not hear the slightest emotion.

"The lowly office just vaguely remembered that Miss Zhu's ice-blue clothes walked in in a hurry, for fear of being discovered, and then, the lowly office still vaguely heard that Miss Zhu and the princess quarreled in prison, and the princess said unwillingly that she wanted to appeal, but Miss Zhu was aggressive, saying that she had a lot of dreams at night." With both hands offering the silver that had been sprinkled next to the leader's corpse, the guard seemed to confirm his truth, "These are all found next to the leader's corpse, and this money bag is exactly what the lowly has seen." ”

The guard opened his eyes and said nonsense, but Zhu Yanxi did not refute, "If it is according to the words of the guard brother, this leader has accepted my silver, how can he let others know the way, and the guard brother will not be able to hear these nonsense?" ”

Zhu Yanxi's words made the guards buckle their heads again and again, "Guilty of despicable duty!" The lowly position was hindered by the coercion of the chief, so he had to submit and failed to report it in time, and the leader was also afraid that people would talk too much, so after giving the lowly position a piece of silver, he had to humble himself to guard the cell, and that's why..."

"In other words, if it weren't for the East Window incident, the guard brother would only rot this matter in his stomach?" Zhu Yanxi raised her eyebrows, and a sarcastic smile hung on her face.

"Your Majesty, I am afraid of being punished by the emperor, but I don't want this matter to implicate all the brothers in the prison, so I ask the emperor to spare my life!"

With a smile, Tuoba Minghan looked at Zhu Yanxi, "Miss Zhu, do you have anything to say?" ”

"Back to the emperor, this guard is full of lies, please let the emperor know."

"Oh?" Tuoba Minghan raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhu Yanxi for a long time.

Slightly blessed, Zhu Yan Xi was neither humble nor arrogant, "According to the words of the guard, Yan Xi should be evil-minded, and he can't help but dream a lot at night, and he bought off the chief, intending to burn the princess, and as a result, he also asked for his own hardship, and accidentally fell into the sea of fire, and almost died, but if this is the case, the emperor, Yan Xi is not, he can also buy off this leader, the secret killer is, why bother, why risk yourself?" Moreover, this lord is also foolish, blindly self-judged, why is it not to assassinate this knowing guard, to frame him for his power for personal gain, but to give him, after his death, to slander himself, for his own family, to leave a calamity? ”

The corners of Zhu Yanxi's mouth flashed with a cold smile, "In addition, Yan Xi came out of Weiyang Palace, and the prince of the dome has been waiting outside, the sunset is cold, and the prince also gave his dark red cloak to Yan Xi, what the guard said, it is simply ridiculous, the prince broke into the sea of fire to rescue Yan Xi, everyone can see it, the cloak on Yan Xi's body." If it is according to what the guards said, it is rare that the prince is so ignorant that in the sea of fire, he does not forget to cover his cloak for Yan Xi? ”

"I was negligent, I just paid attention to the dress under Miss Zhu's cloak, and I didn't describe the red cloak!" The guard interjected.

"It's just nonsense, when is this king, there is a red cloak!" Tuoba Yuanqiong's furious eyes, with raging killing intent, stared straight at the guards, and the domineering aura made the guards tremble.

"Who is it that wants you to frame the princess of this king!"

"That's right, you little guard, you are deceiving your superiors and subordinates, and you want to connect the nine clans!" Concubine Li interjected.

"Despicability, despicability was instructed by Mu Cairen to frame the queen's mother, and despicable is guilty!" After a few kowtows, the guard bit his tongue and committed suicide, Tuoba Yuanqiong, who had no time to stop it, looked at Concubine Li coldly, and snorted coldly, "Concubine Li, what a big momentum, the emperor's mind, can you really figure it out, the crime of bullying the king?" Zhulian Nine Clans? ”

Tuoba Yuanqiong's words, Concubine Li could only be silent, and the emperor's frown already showed that he was unhappy with Concubine Li.

"Zhu Yanxi!" Tuoba Minghan frowned and called, "In that case, how did you show up in the Heavenly Prison?" ”

"Back to the emperor, Yan Xi just remembered that before he fell into a coma, he heard two palace maids, discussing the strange death of the imperial concubine, out of concern for the prince, Yan Xi approached a little, and was stunned, if he hadn't been smashed by the beam, he was afraid, and he didn't even know how he died."

Zhu Yanxi's words made the emperor and Tuoba Yuanqiong frown, and then, Zhu Yanxi staggered to the ground, and with the timely support of Tuoba Yuanqiong, he temporarily stayed in the side hall to rest.

After sending the emperor away, Tuoba Yuanqiong stared at Zhu Yanxi tightly, and sighed slightly, "Yan'er, what are you selling in your gourd?" ”

"Lord Wang, the stun is true, the reason is false, it's just that Yan Xi can only make this decision."

Tuoba Yuanqiong frowned, "The palace is the most filthy place, this king doesn't want you to be implicated." ”

"Lord, my mother's death, I am convinced, is closely related to this filthy harem, I can't, I want my mother to die innocently." Thinking of the clues found out after the dust pavilion, coupled with the past of the queen's aunt Daoming, Zhu Yanxi's eyes flashed with pain. stubborn, "The prince refuses to help me, I will find another way." ”

"You're threatening this king!"

"As the prince said, in the transaction between us, each takes what he needs, and you will do your best to help me, right?"

The breath of saber rattling is ready to go between the two.
