Chapter 25: Assassination
I don't know how far I walked, and I don't know how long it took, but the surrounding scene became more and more desolate, leaving only the yellow sand and a few bushes of weeds on the side of the road. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the blink of an eye, the sun is setting in the west.
Because of this, the speed of the night end Yang and his party is getting faster and faster. People who often march and fight, as well as those who do business, know that in such a low-lying place, where there is no grass and no grass, if there is a sandstorm at night, before anyone can find out, the livestock and people have been buried alive.
"Stop, it's getting late, it's convenient to camp here today and rest for the night." When he finally came to a forest, Ye Weiyang turned his horse's head and commanded the people behind him.
Those squires in light armor were all warriors with one as ten. Unlike the people in the rivers and lakes, their swords are mainly used to protect the lord in addition to killing.
"Princess, be careful." Xun'er helped Mu Qinghan and slowly walked down from the carriage. The red embroidered shoes revealed a little moonlight peony from under the bloody wedding dress.
Maybe it was the tiring travel of this day, but her face was still beautiful, but a little haggard. The heavy phoenix crown on his head has been replaced, and the green silk has also become the most ordinary flowing cloud bun.
Mu Wanxi also got out of the carriage, she followed behind Mu Qinghan, and was surprised to see her dressed up like this.
She always thought that Mu Qinghan was stable and intelligent, and she didn't want to be like this. The princesses of the past dynasties, which is not a rule,
But looking at the prince's expression that night, there was not even a trace of displeasure. Or is it that they just don't care at all, that's why it's better.
Ye Weiyang looked at her, and a trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes. A few leaves fluttered overhead, one of them just above her hair.
In an instant, he quietly walked to Mu Qinghan's side, twisted the leaves on her head between his fingers, and said in a low voice: "Why do you not understand the rules so much?"
"Rules have always been set by people, and the reason why rules are set is not to be broken? What's more, how did you follow the rules? Mu Qinghan raised his eyebrows lightly and looked at him with a smile.
The people around him walked away with a lot of interest, and the sound of insects sounded faintly, crisp and crisp, not as annoying and irritable as usual.
"Huh! Well said, you're a -- very interesting woman. Ye Weiyang smiled abnormally, and even his eyes were so lost and lonely.
"Unfortunately, it's just one of them, not the only one." Mu Qinghan shook his head and smiled bitterly, raised his hand, and his three thousand ink hair fell like a waterfall, dancing lightly with the wind.
"The moonlight is beautiful tonight!" She had a smile in her eyes, just like the cold moon in the sky. Hazy and bright, like a fairy in the Moon Palace who is not stained with dust.
"The moon of the sixteenth is the roundest, but the moon is full and the moon is lost, and the moon tomorrow night will not be the same day." Ye Weiyang's words didn't know if they were to himself, or a reminder to Mu Qinghan.
After Mu Qinghan heard this, his face did not show the slightest emotion, and he only raised his head and quietly looked at the cold moon. The moon and stars should not intersect in one place, they seem to be only a stone's throw away, but in fact they are disdainful of each other.
is also like her and Ye Weiyang, who are obviously standing very close, but they force each other farther and farther away.
"Can you dance a song for me, you should ...... Paid off the favor that was owed before. Some couldn't help it, and the long clothes of the night were blown up by the wind.
"Naturally, it's just that you helped me twice, and I danced for you, and only once." Mu Qinghan replied slowly, the light in his eyes was as indifferent as ever.
Ye Weiyang nodded and silently agreed.
She danced on her tiptoes, and her red wedding dress bloomed like a flower. Mu Qinghan is like a fairy in the forest, jumping up and down, and the wide skirt does not affect her graceful dancing at all. The woman who is free to retract and release dances with a beauty like a fire.
It's not as stunning as Ling Li in the Yunshui Hall that day, but so soft and quiet. Even if you use a thousand words to describe it, you still can't describe it
Only those who have actually seen it will understand.
"Outside the red dust, the water is exquisite, and whoever says goodbye will have no regrets. The moon is clear, the love is difficult again, the true and the false can be known......" The cold words came out of her mouth, and they were even colder.
At the end of the night, Yang read it in his heart. Such a woman shouldn't sink into this earthly world, should she?
A sword with an indissolvable edge stabbed at him.
"Be careful!!" Mu Qinghan's heart almost jumped out in an instant, and he stood in front of him without a trace of hesitation.
For a moment, the man who had been as cold as frost looked at the person in front of him in a confused manner. In my mind, some fragmented pictures flashed, which were inexplicable and thrilling.
The sharp blade slashed off a strand of black hair, and just as the tip of the sword reached her throat, she couldn't help but retract it, and a cold sword greeted her in front of her.
Hair fell to the ground, and the Assassin leader's sword was nearly knocked off. He staggered back a few steps, and his gaze at Mu Qinghan was also a little wrong.
The cold sword was like a snake, and the move was fatal, and the sword body carried a cold light, and it quickly cut a hole in the body of the black-clothed assassin.
The black-clothed assassin's martial arts were obviously also extremely high, and seeing that the general trend was gone, he did not love to fight, threw out a smoke bomb, and fled.
"Don't you know how dangerous it was just now? Or do you really want to die like that? Ye Weiyang looked at her who was still calm, and a burst of inexplicable anger arose in her heart.
Instead, she looked up and smiled softly, "Isn't that great?" At least you don't have to go back to Sheng Yuan with a burden, ruin your reputation as the night prince, and make people laugh in vain. ”
"Hmph, indeed. It's just that if you want to die, you can only die at my hands, and no one else--no one can. Ye Weiyang sneered and put his sword into the sheath.
Mu Qinghan was silent, looking at the corpses on the ground, Dai Mei couldn't help frowning slightly: "They may be coming for me."
"Not necessarily, these assassins are not weak in martial arts, and they have been specially trained." Ye Weiyang slashed his sword in front of one of the assassins, and as his shirt was torn, a bronze medal fell into his hands.
I saw that there was an ink word engraved on the bronze medal, and a smile flashed at the corner of his mouth. Instead, he looked at the man opposite: "Why do you think the killer left such a famous clue?"
"It's a blame! It seems that the target of these assassins is more likely to be you. "Mu Qinghan's beautiful eyes are rippling, who is going to kill Ye Weiyang? Is it Yunyao's people, or Sheng Yuan, or Beichen, who has never expressed anything.
"It's getting late, let's go back. Don't worry, I'll find out about it. His words were still so indifferent, but they made Mu Qinghan unhappy.
"I still want to go around this forest more, you go back first, don't worry about me." The woman's slightly sad voice rang out, echoing through the woods.
Ye Weiyang stopped his pace, glanced back at Mu Qinghan, and slowly spit out two words in his mouth: "It's okay."
When the words fell, Mu Qinghan also smiled, and the smile was so bitter.
