Chapter 276: Jiang Yan's Death
I was stunned to think I was going to die. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
All the movements that the phoenix completed in an instant, and before I could blink an eye, she had already protected me in her arms and held it carefully. And I was already overwhelmed by the sudden situation, everything was so sudden, I didn't know what was just happening behind me.
It wasn't until Phoenix took me into her arms, her cold body lining her snow-white skin more lifeless, she caressed my back, trying to soothe me, I slowly recalled my thoughts in her familiar feeling, and I thought of turning around to see what had just happened.
I only moved slightly, and before I could lift my head from Phoenix's chest, she immediately reached out and pressed my head. "Don't look."
She actually said don't look at it? I want to know even more, what the hell is going on.
Why did Gong Hui, who was holding me hostage, suddenly fall backwards, so I gave the phoenix a chance to cut off one of Gong Hui's arms and save me. What happened to Gong Hui, has Phoenix already killed him?
But just then, Phoenix had a clear chance to rush up and kill him, but she just rushed forward and cut off one of his arms, for fear that the short knife in her hand would hurt me when he fell.
If this is the case, could it be said that Gong Hui was already ...... when he fell?
I struggled to break free from her arms, trying to see clearly, but the phoenix was afraid that I would hurt me too hard, so I was able to turn my head around in the gap when her hand was loosened.
At that moment, I was confused.
Gong Hui's body fell to the ground, bleeding all over the ground...... His severed arm fell ten steps away from the corpse. And what made me suddenly feel like a river and a sea in my stomach, and suddenly vomited in the dark, Gong Hui's corpse that was paralyzed on the ground like mud, the head on his neck was beaten to pieces, and it was broken into pieces of flesh and blood.
I couldn't help it, vomiting all the contents of my stomach, shocked, frightened, disgusted and sad, who would have thought that he would end his life in such a tragic death. And just now, this rotten flesh on the ground was still a person standing behind me holding me hostage, just for such a moment, he was ......
I've never seen such a scene, but I just think about it, the child that Mrs. Qimo pounded in her body back then is almost like this. Thinking of this, the mood that had only eased a little collapsed again, and he kept vomiting, as if he wanted to vomit out his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys along with the sour water that poured his appetite.
When the phoenix saw my appearance, he came up to help me despite my opposition, and I vomited so hard that my eyes turned black and my eyes couldn't stop crying. She took me in her arms again, and used all her strength to support my paralyzed body, and she was terrified, frightened by me, and kept calling me, "Little Sycamore, Little Sycamore!" ”
Everything in my mind was a mess when I saw Gong Hui's corpse, and at this moment I didn't know anything, I didn't want to know anything, I looked at it stupidly, and then vomited.
Maybe I'll need to spit it out to make it cleaner.
I was terrified, really frightened, and I was about to step back, but my legs went limp, and I sat down as I spoke. The phoenix helped me and sat next to me, continuing to hold me who might go crazy at any moment.
"The host...... Master! On the other side of Gong Hui's corpse, Jiang Yan was lying on the ground to death, also covered in blood, he tried his best to lie on this side, stretched out his hand to grasp the direction of the phoenix, but he couldn't reach the phoenix.
Jiang Yan is an embarrassment I have never seen before, covered in blood, and seeing blood in seven senses.
It should have been at that moment just now, Jiang Yan was worried that the phoenix who was being coerced would do something, so he took advantage of Gong Hui's distraction to hit that fatal blow. Just by virtue of the injuries he had just been attacked by Gong Hui, it was impossible for him to have the strength to fight back in that situation, and the moment he sneaked up on Gong Hui, he retrograde meridians, bearing the price of a broken heart and spleen and the loss of all five internal organs, he desperately gathered that qi, just to protect the phoenix.
I leaned on the phoenix's arms, watching Jiang Yan dying and struggling in despair, longing for the phoenix's attention even a glance. But all of Phoenix's mind was on me, and she was distressed to see me lose her mind, and she desperately pressed the shallow scar on my neck, as if I would die of blood loss if I let go of my hand a little. She kept asking me, "Is there anything else that hurts ......?"
Just now, Gong Hui asked Phoenix a question before he died, he said, "Exchange your life for her life." ”
Phoenix clearly wanted to agree, she cared about me, so she couldn't bear to see me hurt. It's just a slight hesitation, but he witnessed Jiang Yan's deep affection, Jiang Yan exchanged his life for the life of the phoenix, anyone who threatens the phoenix, even if he dies, he will get rid of her for her.
But when he was slowly dying, the phoenix never looked at him......
……
“…… Madam. Father-in-law Su stood cowardly outside the door, not daring to disturb, whispered such a sentence, and then waited for me to come back to my senses.
It wasn't until I turned my head and looked at him blankly that Gonggong Su hesitated for a moment before waving his hand behind him and walking in. It's only been two days, and the mellow father-in-law Su has lost a lot of weight, his cheeks have sunken, and even his eye sockets are particularly prominent. He walked up to me, unsure if I was looking at him, and shook his gaze at me, and called again, "Madame......"
I looked at him intently, barely noticing him. "What's wrong?"
Hearing me speak, Father-in-law Su's expression not only did not relax, but became more solemn, "Your Majesty...... The old slave still hasn't found His Majesty......"
It's been two days, since before going to the banquet, Gonggong Su rushed up the mountain to tell me that after Gong Hui drugged him to make him fall asleep, he took Yuan He away, until now, Gong Su has almost searched the entire Yu Palace, but he has not found Yuan He.
No one knows where Gong Hui hid Won Hyuk.
And after hearing this answer, I was even more confused. It stands to reason that Chang Yuan has also been out for two days, in case the news of the back and forth leaks out, I don't dare to contact him, and since he left the palace, there has been no news back. Now I don't know what the situation is on their side.
Gong Hui is dead, Jiang Yan is dead...... Two people died in this Yu palace overnight, and the blood stained the hall red, which frightened the ministers of the early court the next day.
I heard that, despite the cursory cleaning, when the ministers entered the hall, there was a disgusting smell of blood, and the ground was stained with patches of red clouds, which had been soaked in blood, and some people had stood on it all morning, and when they returned, they fell ill. There are also people in the corner who picked up an ear that the palace people didn't have time to clean up, which should have been flown out at the moment when Jiang Yan desperately smashed Gong Hui's head.
That morning's court discussion, people's hearts were panicked.
Before noon, all kinds of rumors had spread unscrupulously in the palace. No one had seen what had happened in the hall that night, but they all said it as if they had seen it with their own eyes.
They just knew that that night, two people died in the Yu Palace, one was the eunuch Xu Rui, and the other was Jiang Yan, the eunuch I newly appointed to investigate the death of Concubine Yun. At that time, the palace people who first found out that something was wrong and rushed to the main hall, except for those who fainted on the spot, the other two or three rushed over when they heard those exclamations, except for the two corpses that died miserably. The death of the two eunuchs was extremely horrifying, and the palace people who went to carry the corpse were stunned for a few waves, and carried Gong Hui's body out with vomiting.
In later rumors, it was said that what happened in the hall that night was miraculous.
Because of the four people present at the time, two died miserably, but the other two snuggled up safely, except for a slight injury to me, the phoenix was almost unharmed. The doctor bandaged the wound on my neck and hid away.
There are two theories in the palace, one is that Mrs. Zhaohua and the high priest fought for power, which led to the tragic death of the eunuch who brought it, but no one can tell how the two eunuchs fought like that. The second version probably means that Mrs. Zhaohua tried to harm the high priest, and the high priest was saved by the eunuch.
But after that, Phoenix's attitude of greeting me and taking care of me made the palace people's speculation turn into a ridiculous joke.
Phoenix didn't see the blow she received because of Jiang Yan's death at all, she was normal, but after experiencing the change of dynasty, even if the ministers had any ideas, they didn't dare to act rashly.
"Madam, the old slave has brought Xia Zhen back with you." When Father-in-law Su saw that I was distracted, he hurriedly called me again.
I saw that the person who was following him was indeed Xia Zhen. After being missing for several days, Xia Zhen actually returned to me in a good manner, and as soon as she saw me, she immediately rushed to my side and cried bitterly, "Madam! ”
I patted her, "Okay, what the hell is going on?" Where have you been these days? ”
Xia Zhen's eyes were filled with tears, and he turned his head to look at Father-in-law Su at a loss.
Father-in-law Su sighed lightly, "Madam, if there is nothing else, the old slave will go out first." ”
Seeing that I was speechless, Father-in-law Su walked out of the room. After Father-in-law Su closed the door outside, Xia Zhen turned around and cried to me, "That day, I followed my wife to His Majesty's bedroom, and when I saw my wife enter the palace, Zhen'er wanted to stay outside and persuade the general, but the general didn't appreciate it...... I had a big fight with Zhen'er. Zhen'er ran away because the general's words were sad, but later, she ...... I don't know where it went, it seems to have been abandoned for a long time. Zhen'er wanted to ask someone to see where it was, so she went around to the back of the palace and saw a person......"
"A palace that has been abandoned for a long time?" The place she was talking about, I vaguely felt so familiar. "Who are the people you see?"
Xia Zhen cried a little out of breath, and after a long pause, she said, "Zhen'er doesn't know, she only saw a back, and she felt that it looked a little like Your Majesty, but before she got closer, she was called by Concubine Yun again." And then, and then ......"
"Then have you been locked up by Concubine Yun all this time?" Something was on my mind, but I wasn't sure.
Xia Zhen cried and nodded.
It turned out that during this period, we all thought that Xia Zhen was missing, but in fact, she was locked up by Yun Chu because she accidentally discovered something. It's just the person Xia Zhen said, someone whose back is somewhat similar to Yuan He...... I can't help but feel like laughing, we looked for him to find his head, but in fact he was right in front of us, no wonder Changyuan couldn't find him outside. "And after that?"
"In the first few days, Concubine Yun also came to deliver food in person, but later, no one came to the place where Zhen'er was held, Zhen'er was locked up for a long time, there was no food there, and she could only survive on the dew that flowed down from the wall...... Zhen'er thought that she would never see her husband again. Xia Zhen said, crying even more sadly.
During the days when she was locked up, she didn't know that Yun Chu had an accident, if I guessed correctly, Yuan Jue should have come to see Yun Chu at that time, and Xia Zhen bumped into it. Yun Chu was worried that Xia Zhen's leakage would hurt Yuan Jue, so he locked her up, and then as Xia Zhen said, in the first few days, Yun Chu personally went to deliver food to Xia Zhen, and she couldn't let others know that she had kidnapped Xia Zhen and locked her up, if others took advantage of the gap in delivering food to learn about Yuan Jue from Xia Zhen's mouth, it would definitely affect Yuan Jue's plan. It's just that Yun Chu shouldn't have expected that not long after she locked Xia Zhen up, she had an accident, and after that, Xia Zhen, who was locked up by Yun Chu somewhere in this palace, no one knows anymore, and she can survive with the dew until now, and she can be regarded as picking up a life.
"Madam, Zhen'er has heard about it......" She cried for a long time, I didn't persuade her, only waited until she herself had cried enough, then pulled the corner of my clothes and said, "Why did so many things suddenly happen in this palace, even with Your Majesty ......"
"Xia Zhen, do you know how to survive in this palace?" I indifferently reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Xia Zhen thought for a moment, then shook his head.
"Live." I told her seriously, "No matter how difficult the situation is right now, survival is the most important thing." As long as you want to work hard, then you will always wait until the day when you get out. ”
Xia Zhen bit her mouth and thought about it for a while, but she still didn't understand what I meant. After waiting for a long time, she mentioned, "Madam, Zhen'er heard that the power of this Yu Palace has been controlled by the high priest, and it is the high priest who wants to exterminate the Yuan royal family." So what are we going to do......"
"Are you afraid of death?" I asked her with a chuckle, and as soon as these words came out, I saw Xia Zhen's face suddenly pale. "I'm also afraid, so I live well to have the opportunity to see our heroes break through the city and reclaim the glory that belongs to them."
"Ma'am." Father-in-law Su, who was waiting outside the door, suddenly broke in this time, until he stood in front of us, he realized that he was rude, wanted to explain, but didn't know how to say, standing there in a hurry, and finally slapped his face, and said angrily, "Something happened...... King Moyang's defenders outside the city, this night, the world evaporated! (To be continued.) )
