Chapter 150: The Assassin
After they hid, Qingyi didn't seem to have any intention of putting Liu Ke down, and still wrapped her in his arms.
Although Liu Ke had a marriage in her previous life, she was always tired of dealing with Qi Siren, and even a little afraid.
At this time, Liu Ke nestled in Qingyi's arms, and there was some nostalgia for a while.
"The doppelgangers of the Flower Demon have been found, let's see how Poor Dao subdues them!" The voice of the Blaze came from not far away.
Liu Ke gently struggled out of Qingyi's arms and fell to the ground, hiding behind him.
Flower demon, that old Taoist priest actually said that they were flower demons, it was really a lie with his eyes open.
I only heard the queen say: "Your Majesty, you can hear the master's words, what you saw before must not be Aunt Ci, but these flower demons have transformed to confuse you." ”
Liu Ke leaned forward slightly, and saw that several young ladies who had been left behind with her were tied up and thrown on the ground, and their mouths were stuffed with things.
Probably none of them expected to be left behind, and what was waiting for them turned out to be such a result.
"No wonder I'm not sick all the time, it's this thing that's causing trouble. Master, master, destroy them quickly, don't let them be the harem. The emperor pointed to the women who had been thrown to the ground.
Kuang Xing stood in front of the emperor, and said with great righteousness and awe: "Your Majesty, rest assured, since Poor Dao has captured her, he will not let this evil beast run away again." Please stand back—"
As he spoke, he threw the dust in his hand at the few people who fell to the ground, and the fire suddenly spread to those people, and in an instant, the entire imperial garden burst into flames.
I could faintly hear their painful moans coming from my throat.
Liu Ke, who was standing behind Qingyi, was so frightened that his legs weakened, and his whole body leaned weakly on Qingyi's body.
Seeing that Liu Ke's face turned pale, Qingyi reached out and grabbed her waist, and said softly, "Let's go." ”
Liu Ke didn't seem to hear half of it. Still staring straight at the fire not far away.
At this time, I only heard the queen say to the emperor: "Your Majesty, this place is dirty, please go to the Palace of Nourishing Heart to rest." ”
When the emperor saw that the "flower demon" had been destroyed, he was no longer obsessed, and nodded and said, "Okay." This place will be handed over to the queen and the master, and I will go back first. ”
"Concubine Congratulations to His Majesty!" The queen saluted the emperor, and watched the emperor's figure come out of the imperial garden, then turned her face coldly, glanced at a few flower girls who were still burning on the ground, and whispered: "Don't blame any of you." If you want to blame it, your family is too greedy. ”
With a smile on his face, he bowed to the queen and said flatteringly: "The queen, this matter is over, you value the matter of cultivating the Taoist temple-"
The queen slowly turned her head towards Qi Xing, and said with a slight smile on her face: "What did you say?" I don't seem to understand what you mean? What's up? After she said that. He gave the guard on the side a look.
"Queen Mother, you promised the poor road, as long as the poor road does this and hides it from the emperor, you will help the poor road to rebuild-"
Before he could finish his words, he was pierced through the heart from behind!
He looked at the queen in front of him in disbelief, and said with difficulty from his throat: "The most poisonous woman-" It's just that he never had a chance to say it again. The body fell to the hungry ground, and after a few convulsions, it was out of breath.
After the Hung Xing was killed, the Queen's eyes swept over everyone present. Said: "There was a girl who escaped just now, and the mourning family thought that she should be hiding nearby, no matter what method you use, you have to find her out, and kill her directly after finding it, and the mourning family will see her body tonight." ”
"Yes!" The guards standing around said in unison.
After Liu Ke heard this, a chill ran down his spine.
But. From this, she also thought that Qiu Cairen should not have been caught by them, and it seemed that he had escaped from the Imperial Garden.
After the queen finished speaking, she left with the people.
Qingyi saw Liu Ke as if he was frightened. The arm around her waist tightened slightly, and whispered in her ear, "I'll take you out of here." ”
Liu Ke nodded blankly. He hurriedly said: "This is the palace, and it's getting late, the palace gate is closed, how can we get out?" Speaking of this, without waiting for Qingyi to reply, he continued: "Do you know where Qiucai people live?" Why don't we go to her for help? ”
Actually, Liu Ke is not worried about Qiu Cairen and wants to see her.
But now that their situation is still like this, she is really embarrassed to ask Qingyi to help check the situation of Qiu Cairen, so she said such a thing.
Qingyi didn't know why, and asked, "Do you know Qiucai?" ”
"One side." After Liu Ke finished speaking, he hurriedly said: "But we are very close to each other, you see the clothes on my body, she gave them to me." ”
After hearing this, Qingyi's heart suddenly changed, but he didn't say it, and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go to her for help, but I think it's not easy for us to leave here now, they went to search elsewhere, and this should be the safest place now." ”
Liu Ke's eyes glanced at the pile of ashes left over from the burning, and his eyes were wet, and he said, "The queen has killed so many people, isn't she afraid that the various officials will know?" ”
"What if you know?" Qing Yi smiled coldly and said: "Don't say it's a few little women, even if it's an official of the imperial court, didn't the emperor say that he would kill him?" Does anyone in the world dare to reason with the royal people? ”
There was obvious dissatisfaction with the royal family in his clear tone.
Maybe he realized that his words were a little excessive, so he slowly restrained the coldness on his face, softened his tone and said: "Let's go, the night is already thick, if I remember correctly, Qiucai should live in Zhongxiu Palace, in the southwest of the Imperial Garden, next to Kunning Palace." Let's go find her! ”
Qingyi didn't wait for Liu Liuke to react, so he pulled her forward.
When she arrived at the gate of Zhongxiu Palace, Qingyi did not go through the gate, but jumped under Liu Ke's armpit and took her to jump over the courtyard wall.
A girl came out of the room with a tray, and when she saw them, she screamed in fright.
It's just that she was knocked out by Qingyi's slap as soon as she was halfway through the call.
"Who's out there?" It's the voice of the autumn talent.
Liu Ke stood at the door and said softly: "Qiucairen, it's me, Liu Ke!"
The door suddenly opened, and Qiu Cai pulled Liu Ke into the room. Just about to close the door, when he saw Qingyi standing at the door, he couldn't help frowning, and said sharply: "Why are you here?" ”
Qingyi entered the door of the room at the stall where Qiu Cairen was talking, and said with a smile: "I'm not here." Who do you think brought Liu Ke here? ”
"Liu Ke's matter, I'll take care of it, and promise to send her out of the palace safely, you'd better stay away from her." Qiu Cairen's words were unceremoniously.
Qingyi was not angry, walked a few steps inside, and said, "I can't trust you!" ”
Liu Ke found. They seem to be very familiar, Qingyi didn't salute when she saw Qiucairen, Qiucairen didn't be surprised, and even Qingyi entered her room as a man, Qiucairen was not frightened at all.
Liu Ke looked at them scrutinically. I couldn't help but wonder what special relationship there would be between them?
This made Liu Ke even more curious about Qingyi's origin.
While they were talking, there was a knock on the door.
Qiu Cairen said to Mama Song beside her: "Quickly find Ke'er a eunuch's clothes to change into!" After speaking, he said to Qingyi: "How do you get out, figure it out yourself, just don't drag me down." Jin'er go open the door! ”
The latter sentence was said to the palace maid beside him.
Qingyi flashed out the door and disappeared into the night.
Liu Ke was pulled to the back and put on the clothes of a little eunuch.
As soon as she changed her clothes, she heard someone say, "Knock on the autumn talent." Assassins came into the palace, and his subordinates came to search on the orders of the queen. ”
"There are assassins. Where did the Assassins come from? It was Qiu Cairen's panicked voice, and then she said, "Quick, Jin'er, take them around, and the assassins don't come to us." ”
"Xiao Hezi, quickly serve tea to a few guard brothers." After Qiu Cairen's words fell. A palace maid put the brewed tea in Liu Ke's hand.
Liu Ke immediately understood what they meant, although he was nervous. But knowing that this is the best way to avoid search, pluck up courage. I came out with tea.
Qiu Cairen glanced at her and motioned for her to put the tea on the table.
After Liu Ke put the two cups of tea on the table steadily, he stood behind Qiu Cairen with a tray.
After a short time, several guards checked around Zhongxiu Palace and then came to Qiu Cairen, and the leader replied: "Disturb Qiu Cairen's rest, the assassin is not here, we will search elsewhere." ”
After hearing this, Qiu Cairen asked, "But it's really checked, in case the assassin is hiding here, and you don't find it out for me, I can ask you." ”
"It's really not, it's good for the autumn talent to rest assured!"
They finished and left.
At this time, Liu Ke felt that his legs seemed to be shaking all the time.
Qiu Cairen patted her on the shoulder, didn't talk to her, shook his hand, and said with some remorse: "I actually let this guy go just now, otherwise, it would be best to let him take him out of the palace." ”
After she said this, she sighed deeply and said, "Jin'er, you go to Jingyang Palace, don't be seen, just say that I have something here and ask her for help." ”
Jin'er went out in response, opened the door just now, Qingyi squeezed in from outside, and said to Qiu Caidao with a smile: "Were you talking about me just now?" ”
Qiu Cairen glanced at him and said, "It's time for you to come, Jin'er, you don't have to go to Jingyang Palace, you change your clothes and go out of the palace with Miss Liu, and then send her to Liu's house safely and come back." ”
"Don't believe me?" After listening to Qiu Cairen's words, Qingyi said dissatisfied.
Qiu Cairen smiled proudly: "With your reputation, should I believe you?" Okay, less nonsense, hurry up and get out of the palace! If you don't go out of the palace, you really can't get out. ”
Although Qingyi was angry in his heart, he held back the anger in his heart in the end.
Stretching out his hand and pulling Liu Ke, he walked out.
After walking out of Zhongxiu Palace, he swaggered forward, and he had no intention of hiding or avoiding at all.
It's just that they had just passed the Heart Cultivation Hall when they heard shouts from behind: "Catch the assassins-" (to be continued)
