Since the beginning of autumn, the news of Donghe's eldest princess collaborating with the enemy and treason has spread among the people. At first, it was just a rumor, although some discerning people have seen the turbulent waves implied in it, but most people still refuse to believe it.

It wasn't until one day at dusk when the forbidden army suddenly poured into Anhuamen under the banner of catching the thieves and walked through the streets and alleys of the imperial capital that people vaguely understood that the sky had changed.

In the past, there was almost no one wandering on the bustling Suzaku Street, and the occasional traffic was in a hurry, for fear of being arrested by the forbidden army patrolling the street in the name of anti-thieves. And the princess's mansion is also surrounded by heavy soldiers on the inside and three layers outside, and it is not allowed to enter or leave, and even the vegetables and grains for eating are sent in from outside.

Everyone said that they didn't break in directly, but only ordered Duan's father-in-law to come and announce the order to let the people in the mansion and others return to obedience, which was already quite concerned about the friendship with the eldest princess in the past. But as everyone knows, he only besieged and did not attack for a long time, just because the formation left by the Lord of Lanshan was too powerful and no one could break it.

But such a confrontation is not a long-term solution after all.

A tall carriage was parked in a village twenty or thirty miles from the imperial capital, and the horses were happily eating the grass on the side of the road. The slender hand, which had been slender, lifted the curtain, and the woman in the ink dress jumped out of the carriage with the hand of the man in Tsing Yi.

"Is Ah Xuan all settled?"

Lu Li nodded, and then said worriedly: "But Divine Doctor Luo is still in the Princess's Mansion, and the mountain lord's disease requires Divine Doctor Luo to personally perform a set of needles to be effective." ”

Ning Yan stopped, stretched out her palm and said in a trance: "Lu Li, you see, it's raining." ”

As if to echo her words, a bolt of lightning struck the sky, illuminating the night as bright as day in an instant. Then the rumbling thunder exploded, and the dark clouds slowly gathered.

The rain fell from the dots to the silk, from the silk to the pillars, and fell like sea water pouring out of a cup. The mad wind swept up the desolation of the land, and the earth was facing it with great might.

In the wind and rain, she suddenly asked softly, "How is Qingluan?" Has her Gu poison been cured? ”

Seeing that there was no response behind her, she turned around strangely and saw a weak baby face, with a thick tiredness between her eyebrows.

"A-Ning, Qingluan is dead." He slowly looked up, looking at each other, and he could clearly feel something in her eyes, shattered. He could hear even the sound of shattering.

"What did you say?" As if hearing the funniest thing in the world, she asked again in a trembling voice, "What do I ask you to say?" Who died? ”

The glass-colored eyes were filled with a hazy mist, and the pale face was almost as sad as ashes.

Lu Li opened his mouth, and finally sighed: "A-Ning, mourn." ”

She burst out laughing, desolate and sad, and involuntarily stumbled a few steps backwards and fell on the muddy road. But there was not a single tear on his face.

"Hahahaha, mourning...... Condolences ......"

Heavy rain has cast a hazy fog over the quiet village, and the green hills in the distance are vast. Everyone was drenched in the rain, but no one stepped forward to help the woman who had fallen in the rain. The desolate laughter gradually subdued, and she slowly stood up just when everyone was worried that she would not be able to hold on. One step at a time, each step felt like she was about to fall back into the muddy water again, but she stood firmer.

She ...... When you go...... What does it look like? Is it painful? Did she say anything? Do you blame me? Under the heavy rain, the rouge gouache was washed clean, revealing a plain and clear face, with pale eyes and white lips.

Lu Li suddenly stepped forward and hugged her, and there was a tremor in his deep voice: "A-Ning, it's okay." She walked peacefully, laughing all the time, not crying. She said...... She can't bear you and wants to ...... all the time Take care of you. She said she didn't want to leave you alone in this world...... But Aning, you won't be alone, you still have us. His embrace was generous and warm, but it couldn't dispel the slightest chill in her heart.

"Really?" She replied in a daze. The rain flowed down her hair, forehead, eyes, nose, chin and became a silent river on her body.

"That's good...... That's good......" She numbly pushed Lu Li away, turned around and walked towards the room where Gu Mingxuan was lying.

After just a few steps, he stopped again.

Turning around, he took out an object from his arms and threw it to Lu Lidao: "Let Meng Jue lead Shen Yu's army to come in the shortest possible time." With that, he turned away in desperation.

Lu Li stretched out his hand to catch the flying object, and when he saw it clearly, he stiffened. This is a black jade tiger head talisman with rounded tentacles and a thick coating. In Donghe, except for the imperial forbidden army, which is directly under the emperor's jurisdiction, all the armies can be uniformly dispatched by this tiger talisman.

He looked in the direction of the woman's departure and sighed silently.

She has finally made up her mind, Qingluan, you can also look at it.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

After receiving the order, 300,000 Shen Yu's troops rushed to Beijing from the garrisons in all directions day and night, and within three days, 150,000 troops had arrived outside the Weishui Bridge under the imperial capital. Six days later, 300,000 troops descended on the city.

The commander who led the troops was dressed in plain white clothes, sitting calmly on his war horse, with a faint expression on his face. Behind him was a large army with no end in sight.

After seven years, Yiqiē is like the reincarnation of fate. It's just that the people in the city and under the city have already changed their appearance.

Above the city tower, the Son of the Nine Heavens, dressed in bright yellow, looked at the slender figure condescendingly, his face was so heavy that he was about to drip, and his eyes were full of disbelief.

"Imperial sister, you promised your mother to assist my dear government, but now you want to take the lead against me?" He said coldly.

Ning Yan sneered, not wanting to answer. After a long while, he said slowly: "Zheng Yu, I forgot to tell you, Qingluan is not an ordinary maid, she is...... My sister-in-law. ”

Hearing this, Zheng Yu's face turned pale instantly, and the moment he received the news that Shen Yujun had rushed to the imperial capital, he couldn't understand why the imperial sister was so ruthless. He's just taking back what belongs to him, just trying to keep her around. What did he do wrong to betray him like this?

But now I understand it, and I understand her sentence "I have not failed you, but I have owed her a lot". The distance between them is no longer his wanton behavior, but life and death, love and hate. For the imperial sister, it is a chasm that can never be crossed once there is a zài.

He turned his head to look at the man in the bright purple robe who walked up to the city tower step by step, and only felt a shock in his heart: "Are you ...... Already known? ”

Yun Xiu glanced at the tense situation downstairs in the city, but he didn't seem to be moved at all, and smiled brightly and brightly: "Yes...... And how? The subordinates also obeyed the queen mother's wishes. ”

"Queen Mother...... Why would she do it? ”

Yun Xiu opened the folding fan with a "snap" as soon as he turned his hand: "Only when Ning Yan completely disappears, can she grasp the absolute control status of Donghe." "Only then can I have the ability to get rid of that person's control.

He turned his head to look at the woman in white downstairs, and a trace of distress flashed in his eyes.
