Chapter 185: The Imperial Sister's Lies
Li Yuetian was obviously not satisfied with her answer, and a dagger suddenly appeared in his hand, pressing against Beichen Luo's neck, "Li hopes that His Majesty can answer properly and seriously." Beichen Luo also told him that His Majesty had amnesia, but he didn't believe it.
"I really have amnesia." Li Wei stared at the dagger, saw him slowly approaching Beichenluo's skin, and sighed secretly, thinking that today's identity would be exposed after all. She closed her eyes, "I, not the real Beichen Kingdom. ”
When Li Yuetian got this answer, he smiled ruefully, "I can hear His Majesty admit it so readily, Li is very satisfied." In this way, you sisters and brothers can catch up with the old days and enjoy the beautiful scenery here! Li, it's time to leave! ”
With that, he quickly withdrew his dagger, and in an instant it had already fallen from the side of the pavilion.
Lu Xiao chased him out in a blink of an eye, Li Wei came to Beichen Luo's side, seeing that he couldn't speak, his body couldn't move, and he was as anxious as a grasshopper that had been pinched, "Lu Xiao don't chase him, come and see what's going on!" ”
Lu Xiaoben chased out, and saw that the dark guard had already caught up, and he was afraid that something would go wrong with His Majesty, so he turned back and went back. Li Wei hurriedly asked him to check, Lu Xiao said, "This acupoint method is very domineering, you need to rely on internal force to help Your Highness open up the acupuncture points, Your Highness can't move for the time being, otherwise the muscles and veins will be retrograde." ”
"Then do you have enough internal strength to get through?"
Lu Xiao nodded, "Weichen immediately opens a cave for His Highness, it may take a quarter of an hour." In the meantime, I hope that His Majesty will not move around at will, we now have a dozen secret guards to protect us, and there will not be much danger. ”
Li Wei nodded, and seeing that Lu Xiao had already started her luck, she looked around cautiously. When people are nervous, the grass and trees are soldiers. She had never encountered such a dangerous situation: Li Yuetian's first purpose was naturally to determine her identity, and the second purpose was to use Beichen's difficult method of solving the acupoints to trap her here, and there would definitely be a conspiracy in the future.
Sure enough, in less than a moment, the sound of fighting sounded outside. For the first time, Li Wei saw that all the dark guards who had never appeared had appeared, and they were shopping with those black masked guys, and the voice was getting closer and closer, and she found that there were more and more masked people, and the secret guards were about to be unable to support it!
Lu Xiao was still working hard for Beichen to break through the acupuncture point, beads of sweat appeared on the foreheads of the two, Li Wei was anxiously fidgeting on the side, her whole body trembled nervously, and she simply took the bamboo pole used to pick up the lantern and held it in her hand.
When the first masked person broke through the shackles of the secret guard at this moment and stepped on the pavilion, Li Wei took a step back, and when she saw the assassin's giant sword stabbing at her, she could only close her eyes and sweep forward, sweeping for a while, but found that she was completely fine, and couldn't help but look up, and was suddenly surprised-
"Master Qingyi, you're here!"
Qingyi cut down at this moment, his hair had already grown, no more, no less, exactly one or two inches long, looking at the modern boy's hair, Li Wei couldn't help but smile again.
"It's the first time that His Majesty has greeted Qingyi so happily."
"Of course I'm glad, you're an angel!" Li Wei almost jumped up to give him a hug, but it was clear that there were an endless stream of assassins behind him, and they had to evacuate as much as possible.
Lu Xiao also happened to have taken the credit, looking tired, and his skills had been exhausted, so he would not join the fight for the time being.
Beichen was safe, Monk Qingyi carried him, and the four of them immediately went down the stairs.
Li Wei helped Lu Xiao and saw that his expression was pale, "Brother Lu Xiao, don't work hard first, Master Qingyi is amazing." Qingyi, who was walking in front, couldn't help but smile bitterly, "Your Majesty, now that I am carrying His Highness the Seventeenth on my back, I am afraid that no matter how strong I am to reach the sky, it will be difficult to get out of the Yangliu Pavilion." ”
"What then?"
"Your Majesty, don't worry, Cui Yue is already opening the way for us."
"Great, they're here too!" As soon as Li Wei finished speaking, she found that a large number of black-clothed people were blocking the way in front of her, Cui Yue and Cui Cheng were here, but they couldn't save the situation in front of them.
"I can still walk." Beichen Luo got off the ground, Li Wei hurriedly helped her, Lu Xiao asked her to take care of Beichen Luo, he just lost some internal strength, and now he doesn't even need to be supported when he walks.
Among the four, only Monk Qingyi opened the way, although his golden Zen staff was very powerful, but after all, there were too many assassins, he couldn't finish killing, and finally advanced a few meters, and was caught up by a large wave of assassins, Lu Xiao couldn't help frowning when he saw this.
"Your Majesty, if we don't break through, I'm afraid the situation will be even worse." With that, he had already picked up a sword left behind by the assassin and rushed forward.
Seeing Lu Xiao in this situation, he could only grit his teeth and hold on, and then said to Li Wei, "Your Majesty, take Your Highness away!" Fast! ”
Li Wei helped Beichen Luo, who was gradually regaining his strength, and was escorted by the two of them all the way out of the pavilion, and then finally connected with Cui Yue and Cui Cheng, got into the carriage, and galloped all the way, Lu Xiao drove the carriage, but was shot head-on with an arrow, he blocked it with his sword, "Your Highness, there are stray arrows flying, be careful!" ”
Qing Yi resisted those assassins who were chasing after him, and his soaring power was released, and all the black-clothed assassins were shocked into a circle. Qingyi touched the injured bloodstains, looked at the assassins who continued to crowd in, and couldn't help but smile, Lord Regent, you owe this favor.
Li Wei and Beichen were lying on their stomachs in the carriage, using the anti-arrow wall to block most of the stray arrows. Beichen Luo leaned close to Li Wei, "Sister Huang, there are too many assassins, I'm afraid-"
"Don't talk, we have a good chance of winning. Li Yuetian has been colluding with the people of the imperial court for more than a day or two, this time he may have deliberately revealed the news to me, giving the family a chance to show their feet, and I will definitely clean them up when I go back! ”
"Sister Huang, it was the younger brother who caused you to be involved, if it weren't for the pride of the younger brother who came out alone and didn't discuss it with the imperial sister, today's incident would not have happened."
"Even if you don't show up, they'll always find other ways to lure me out of the palace. Besides, your master Li Yuetian has long had doubts about my identity, and this assassination will be sooner or later. ”
The stray arrow kept flying and shuttling, nailed to the sturdy car wall, Li Wei was terrified when she heard it, holding Beichenluo's head to prevent him from moving. Beichen Luo said, "Although it is a matter of time, if the regent is still in the capital, they will not dare to mess around." ”
Guan Qianyi also guessed that they would do it, but he didn't expect it to be so fast. Don't talk about it yet, since this matter has come to this point, don't blame yourself, don't be discouraged, cheer up! ”
As soon as Li Wei's words fell, an arrow passed through the carriage and was nailed to the inner wall, she was stunned for half a second, suppressed the screaming voice, and Lu Xiao's anxious voice came, "Your Highness, are you injured?" ”
"It's okay, Lu Xiao, you hold on, there seem to be fewer stray arrows! They're running out of arrows! ”
Cui Yue and Cui Cheng escorted them all the way, and they were accidentally shot by an arrow into the carriage, which almost frightened them. Hearing that His Majesty was fine, the two immediately separated one after the other, resisting the increasingly scarce arrows.
But only the carriage and one horse neighed proudly, and it was already out of the frame, and the remaining two horses continued to gallop, and the speed did not fall by half a minute, but with the trap and saber ambush that appeared in the fork in the road, one horse was wounded and fell to the ground.
There was only one horse left in the carriage, and the speed dropped a lot, and Lu Xiao couldn't help but be anxious when he saw that the route ahead was changed.
Cui Yue shouted, "The route is wrong!" That's not the way back to the palace! ”
Lu Xiao said, "If you can't control it, this horse is about to die!" ”
In the case of flying arrows, they didn't dare to rashly let Li Wei get off the carriage, so they had to wait for the carriage to walk a certain distance and there were no more arrows, and then a few people slowed down.
"If I keep running, my heart will be broken!" Li Wei got out of the carriage, her legs trembling, "Where is this?" Can't we go back along the road now? Sooner or later, the Assassins will catch up. ”
Lu Xiao said, "Go ten miles, there is a fork in the road to go back." Now it's impossible to know if it's safe there. The carriage was going the wrong way, perhaps on purpose, as there were many spurs at the roadblock, and perhaps the Assassins were waiting for us along the road or in ambush at the fork in the road. ”
Before they could rest for a few minutes, Cui Yue had already discovered the assassin's traces.
The carriage was almost unable to walk, and the horse was injured in both backwards and front legs, and could not run fast. Li Wei and Beichen Luo looked for a hike to keep up with Lu Xiao and Cui Yue and Cui Cheng.
The more Lu Xiao walked, the more he realized that something was wrong, but everyone stopped, "No, this road seems to be a dead end, we can't go any further." ”
"But we can't go back."
"In front of me is a ten-zhang wide waterfall cliff, and there is no road. We may have been tricked. ”
Li Wei's mood suddenly became cold. At this time, she could also hear the footsteps of the assassins surrounding her, which seemed to be amplified and not hidden in the slightest, they were coming.
"Your Majesty and Your Highness, follow the three of us well." Cui Yue instructed him, Lu Xiao and Cui Cheng to surround the two of them in the middle. None of the Dark Guards could catch up, and now they had to hold on.
Beichen Luo held Li Wei's hand, it was all sweat, he had already regained his strength now, although he was a little worse than Lu Xiao and others, but he could still protect himself. He wanted to protect the imperial sister, and it must be the first time she had encountered such a danger. saw Li Wei pull him aside and let him lean behind her.
"Sister Huang, I'm fine, I know martial arts."
"Your little martial arts, it's useless, don't move around, you know?" Li Wei came out to protect Beichen Luo at this moment, and also saw that Lu Xiao had a wound on his arm, she felt a little guilty, along the way, Lu Xiao's eldest brother was trying his best to protect her and Beichen Luo, but she didn't find out when he was injured.
When the assassin rushed up, a question popped up in Li Wei's mind, the family was dissatisfied with her, and wanted to join forces to deal with her, or even kill her? Then, they must have a prepared heir. However, Beichen Luo is on her side, so who is the heir in their hands?
This question mark was put very big by her in an instant, she was stunned for a moment, her ears suddenly quieted, and then she was frightened by the sound of the sword halberd: Wei Taifu is also a big family, but she thinks it is impossible for him to participate in the rebellion. And the Cheng family, who had hooked up with Li Yuetian for a long time, and the Qi family, who had long been dissatisfied with her, were very likely to rebel.
However, the only thing I can't figure out is, what are the Qi family's hole cards? What was the reason for their rebellion, and who was the heir?
She couldn't figure it out! She couldn't meditate, she didn't dare to stare at the flying sword light, the blood that pierced the assassin's body hurt her heart and lungs too much, so she tried not to look, but she was afraid that the three of them would be injured, so she could only hold Beichen Luo's hand tightly, until she saw Lu Xiao, who had not recovered his internal strength, someone else drew a sword, and the same blood flew out, she was stunned, watching Lu Xiao kill the assassin with another sword, the sword in the assassin's hand slipped down and landed right at her feet, a surge of courage rose in her throat, her eyes stared at the hilt of a sword that slipped off the ground, and stretched out her hand.
"Sister Huang, be careful!" Beichen pushed her away, avoiding the inconspicuous tip of the sword.
Cui Yue said suddenly, "Your Highness, there are more and more assassins, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on!" ”
Li Wei also understood the current situation, in another quarter of an hour, if their secret guards did not arrive, all five of them would die under the sword. Now the only way out was - she looked in the direction of the waterfall.
The waterfall cliff is just unable to walk, not necessarily a dead end, she doesn't believe it, she crossed over to Beichen Kingdom, is it just to let people kill with a sword or jump off the cliff to die!
Acting faster than consciousness, Li Wei dragged Beichen Lu, and ran forward with all his strength in a gap opened by Cui Yue and Lu Xiao, and the killing shouts behind him became smaller and smaller, and they rushed forward at the fastest speed in their lives.
Until the two of them walked many small forks, Li Wei used a branch to cover up the footprints of the two of them a little, and continued to run, but found that those few small forks actually merged into a small road, and she couldn't help but cry bitterly.
In front of me, you can hear the sound of the water splashing in the waterfall, which is getting louder and louder, and it vibrates the eardrums. Li Wei didn't know whether it was fortunate or unfortunate for the two of them.
"Sister Huang, this is not far from the place of fighting."
"Yes, not far." Although she ran so much that her legs had no strength, she also knew that if someone who knew how to do light skills during this distance, she would be able to catch up in a few minutes, and Cui Yue and the three of them would not be able to kill all the assassins, and it would be a luxury for the three of them to retreat.
There are already some solid rock faults around, and the jungle is too sparse to hide.
Is it really impossible to jump off a cliff?
Li Wei looked at the edge of the cliff, the momentum of the flying stream, she could guarantee that she would die if she jumped.
Although she said that she was a crossing woman, she was likely to have the aura of the protagonist, and it would be difficult to jump off the cliff in general. But now that she is with Beichenluo, she may not necessarily be the protagonist of this scene, so can she still gamble so willfully?
Beichen Luo lay on the ground, his ears close to the ground, and listened carefully to the sound coming from the ground.
"Sister Huang, they're here."
Li Wei was stunned, pulled Beichen Luo up, and looked at his figure that was already as tall as her, although he was young, his heroic spirit became more and more compelling. She suddenly grinned and showed a hearty and relaxed smile, "Imperial brother, I have thought of a way!" ”
Beichen nodded, his eyes shining.
"Look at it, there is a small tree below, and the potholes next to the cliff can be settled, you first grab the belt and go down, and then the royal sister will come down after you are fixed! Hurry up, time is running out. With that, she had untied her belt.
Sister Huang, where else could Beichen Luo think of anything indecent at this time, she could only listen to her instructions, grabbed the belt, slowly probed down, stepped on the root of the tree, and then went down to find a foothold, let go of the belt in her hand, climbed the small tree, and looked up at Li Wei.
"Sister Huang, come down quickly! I've stood firm! He tried to get out of the way of the best place to stand, and clung to the little sapling, so that she could come down as much as she could.
Li Wei put away her belt and nodded lightly at him, "Brother Huang, can you promise Sister Huang one thing?" ”
"Sister Huang, you come down first and then speak!"
"No, if you don't promise me, I won't go down."
"Okay, okay, sister Huang, say it quickly." Beichen Luo didn't know what kind of temper Li Wei was going to play suddenly, he heard that those footsteps were near, and hurriedly followed her wishes.
"Sister Huang has never asked you for anything, today's situation is too dangerous, if the two of us have something to do, what can Beichen Guo do? Therefore, you have to promise me that no matter who survives today, we must remember to guard the throne well, guard the rivers and mountains of Beichen Kingdom, and let the people of Beichen Kingdom be stable and happy. ”
"Sister Huang, I promise you, come down and hide, they are almost there!" Beichen was anxious.
Li Wei turned her head, listened to the sound of those chaotic footsteps shuttling through the low forest, turned her head and looked down the cliff, leaving Beichen Luo with the most reassuring smile in her eyes, the wind blew her long hair, put her index finger to her lips, and made a silent gesture to him. Before Beichenluo understood her intentions, she ran away from the cliff to the side, and a moment later there were many footsteps on the side of the cliff.
The sluggish Beichen heard her imperial sister laughing and crying, and the assassins all chased in her direction, leaving a gradual silence in his ears.
Tears poured out of his eyes, Beichen clung to the branches, and suppressed tears still poured out like spring water. He couldn't speak, even if he mourned to the extreme, he could only open his mouth, tears blinded his eyes, he hated his incompetence! It turned out that the imperial sister lied to him, saying that she had thought of a way, she was lying to him from the beginning, and she had already thought of trying to lure the assassin away alone!
