Chapter 50: Qin Palace [2]
Fate, how cruel and ridiculous?
Or has time failed to retain people who are really good to us after all?
The black-clothed Qi sighed slightly, and then left quickly!
The front is still boundless night, but no matter how dark the night is, there will be a time of dawn after all, and the question now is, how many people's lives will disappear in this dark night and conspiracy, and even, they can't see the sun tomorrow?
Qin Chengcheng and the black-clothed secret guard set foot on the road to Yucheng.
In the dark night, it was split in half, and two people and two horses, like sharp swords, flew straight into the distance!
At dawn, two people came to the shore of Weishui. The horses under him were already soaking wet, as if they were washed. Qin Qingcheng turned over and dismounted, and boarded the ferry in front. The black-clothed dark man followed to the side, he glanced at Qin Chengcheng beside him, and suddenly chuckled: "Ninth Princess, there is Yu Cheng in front!" β
The shore of Weishui is Yucheng. Of course, Qin Qingcheng knew this. But the Mercedes-Benz that came overnight seemed to have exhausted all her strength, and she listened to the words of the dark man, only nodded slightly, and stopped talking.
The black-clothed dark man glanced at Qin Qingcheng, and suddenly smiled: "Ninth Princess, Yu Cheng, you don't have to go, let's break up here!" β
Qin Qingcheng glanced at the black-clothed dark man lightly: "What do you mean?" β
\δΈ\ζ¬\Read\Novel xstxt What does that dark man mean, of course Qin Qingcheng knows. But even if she knew, she still wanted to hear the other party say it in person!
The black-clothed dark man grinned and said, "My subordinates are ordered to finish off the Ninth Princess here......"
Qin Qingcheng finally turned around, looked at the weird smile on the face of the black-clothed dark man, and said coldly: "You are the dark man of the second emperor brother!" So, but does the second emperor brother want my life? β
This dark man, Qin Chengcheng recognized. He is indeed Qin Hongsheng's person. It was because Qin Qingcheng recognized him that he chose to go with him. But what I didn't expect was that this dark man wanted her to die!
So Qin Tingcheng wanted to find out whether Qin Hongsheng wanted her to die, or someone else, who couldn't look at her!
The black-clothed dark man looked at Qin Qingcheng's eyes, as if he was looking at a dead man. He shook his head and said, "His Royal Highness the Second Prince asked his subordinates to take the Ninth Princess to Yucheng!" β
Qin Qingcheng said coldly: "However, others want my life!" β
There seem to be a lot of people who want Qin Chengcheng's life, and there seem to be only a few of them, so now even Qin Chengcheng is starting to get confused, who is it who wants her to die here!
The dark man didn't seem to want to say anything more. He raised the long sword in his hand with a "swish", and roared at Qin Chengcheng: "Today next year, my subordinates will burn some paper money for the Ninth Princess......
Qin Chengcheng stood there, unmoved. It seems that she didn't see this sword light that pierced through the night!
The cold wind blew on her clothes, and her faint voice floated like a mist on the side of Weishui, which was filled with cold water vapor: "I just want to know, who is it that must kill me!" β
The black-clothed dark man snorted coldly: "As long as the ninth princess remembers, there are many people who want you to die......"
It's not Qin Hongsheng, but there are many people who want her to die!
Qin Tingcheng narrowed his eyes slightly, Queen, Qin Tingyue...... Who else? How many people are lurking in the dark, afraid of the forces behind Qin Qingcheng, and still afraid that she will be favored? How many people really want her to die?
The bright sword light pierced the night and stabbed towards Qin Chengcheng's chest.
Qin Qingcheng didn't seem to see it, and said coldly, "I know who sent you...... It's the Queen, isn't it? β
The black-clothed dark man's hand trembled slightly: "How do you know?" β
He is Qin Hongsheng's secret warrior, but he also obeys the queen's orders, when he heard the order to kill Qin Qingcheng, he didn't seem to think about it - a princess who was originally destined to die outside came back unharmed, how much panic would it cause in this deep palace?
Unexpectedly, Qin Qingcheng was keenly aware of his intentions, as well as the people behind him!
The black-clothed dark man snorted coldly: "Since you know that the queen wants your life, let it be killed!" β
The long sword stabbed between Qin Qingcheng's eyebrows, and with a distance of less than an inch, it could completely kill Qin Qingcheng.
However, at this moment, in the dark night, something seemed to break through the air quickly, and the sword in the dark man's hand fell to the ground. Even his people shook a few times and fell backwards!
On his forehead, there was a black hidden weapon, and just one of them took his life!
Qin Qingcheng turned his head, glanced at the dark night void behind him, and said lightly, "Thank you!" β
How could Bao Ningyi let her go on the road alone?
Therefore, Qin Qingcheng knew that behind her, there must be someone following! Moreover, the person who followed her will definitely ensure her safety.
After listening to Qin Tingcheng's words, in the chaotic grass behind him, something "squeezed" twice, as if in response to Qin Tingcheng's words, and then, everything was hidden in the dark, and everything was silent!
Weishui, the three major tributaries of Daqin, feeds countless people on both sides of the strait. It spans one-third of the territory of Great Qin, and then turns around, rushing from Qilian Mountain to the sea!
Weishui is also a calm river, and in this dark night, you can't even hear the sound of waves!
Qin Chengcheng stood on the side of Weizhi and looked towards the opposite bank, only to see a dark gray thickness, and could only see the aquatic plants dozens of zhang away in front of him, but he couldn't see half of the river at all! On the other side of the river, there is also a silent town, where the barking of dogs is silent, and there is no sound!
Moreover, the river is so deep and wide that it is impossible to cross it without a ferry!
The cool water vapor permeated the nose of Qin Chengcheng, how long had it been since he had smelled such a relaxing and comfortable air? Qin Qingcheng stood in the early morning when his clothes were wet with fog and water, and sighed softly!
However, we still have to find a way to cross the river.
Seeing that the sky is starting to shine and everything is beginning to be clear, I believe that it will not take an hour to cross the river! Just when Qin Qingcheng kicked the body of the man in black down the river, ready to sit on the ground, and waited for an hour, suddenly, on the originally empty riverbank, a small boat shook "hey, hey".
The boat, long as a willow leaf and shaped like a scimitar, rose in the pre-dawn morning. It's like a heavy ink painting, the essence of that tone of thick tones!
Qin Chengcheng narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at the small boat!
I saw that on the small boat, there was a bent old man, who was driving the small boat, swaying towards the ferry. Look at his leisurely posture, harmonious movements, with the smoothness of flowing clouds and the elegance that has been cultivated over many years.
The boat stopped not far from the ferry, and the boatman wearing a hat raised his face, suddenly raised his voice, and shouted at Qin Chengcheng: "Hey, I said that girl, are you going to make a transition!" β
The pure Weishui tone, with an indescribable coolness!
Qin Qingcheng stared at the boat for a long time, and suddenly smiled and said, "Boat family, you are so early!" β
The boatman's ears seemed to be a little deaf, Qin Qingcheng repeated the words twice, he seemed to hear it, shook his head, and said: "People are old, they can't sleep, and when they hear the sound of horses' hooves on the other side, they wonder if someone wants to transition, so they get up!" β
As he spoke, the boatman rowed the boat closer, and shouted at Qin Chengcheng, "Girl, cross the river as soon as possible, get on the boat!" β
Qin Chengcheng jumped on the boat in two steps! The moment she got on the boat, the hull of the boat seemed to tremble, and Qin Qingcheng smiled: "Boatman, you have been on this boat for some years!" β
The boatman said leisurely: "Don't tell the girl, this boat has been with the old man for half a lifetime!" Speaking of which, it's three points closer than the old man's wife! β
As he spoke, the boatman stroked his long white beard. He looked at Qin Qingcheng and smiled innocently, the wrinkles on his face, which were still faintly visible through the half of his face covered by the bamboo hat.
Qin Qingcheng smiled, walked to the bow of the boat and sat down, looking at the mist in front of him, but did not speak.
The boat swung its tail and left the ferry and rowed towards the opposite shore.
The old man pointed to the horses on the shore and said, "Don't you want the girl's horses?" β
Qin Qingcheng said: "Your boat is too small, my horse can't take it!" β
The old man shook his head, as if he was counting the waste of Qin's falling city, and continued to move forward with a muttering all the way.
The water waves in the early morning are tinged with a hint of coldness. Qin Chengcheng felt a little cold because of his thin clothes. She ignored the old man's chatter, and only gently hugged her shoulder!
The boat soon reached the center, and the boatman was not too far away, and it seemed that he could see the long-leaved aquatic grass on the opposite bank.
Qin Qingcheng watched quietly, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking!
Suddenly, the boat, which had been moving slowly, stopped. Qin Chengcheng looked back, only to see that the boatman had planted the penny, and then, facing Qin Chengcheng, crossed his waist, and said coldly: "Has the girl ever crossed this Weishui River?" β
Qin Qingcheng shook his head: "No!" β
The boatman said, "Since the girl has never crossed the river, and she doesn't know the rules of the Weishui River?" β
Qin Qingcheng shook his head again: "I don't understand!" β
The boatman patiently said: "Crossing the river during the day for a penny alone, crossing the river at night is always a penny!" β
Consistent money, that is, a thousand coins, equivalent to one tael of silver. It has become a habit to ask for money for the boat in the middle of the river crossing, because you can't get off the boat in front of you, and there is nowhere to hide in the back, so when you cross the river, people will ask for money when they get to the middle of the river crossing!
Qin Tingcheng listened, nodded, smiled slightly, and said, "Could it be that you got up early in the morning, and the money is always expensive, not expensive, not expensive!" β
In fact, no matter whether this boatman asks for one tael of silver or ten taels of silver, Qin Chengcheng plans to give it to him, after all, it is indeed not easy to be early in the morning! However, if this boatman wants more than just silver, then Qin Chengcheng really can't help it!
