116. 115 The difficulty of the choice
Su Rui watched coldly as he took himself to the palace of the Hu Kingdom and leaped over, as if he had entered a no-man's land, and couldn't help but sneer, "With such a big palace, can you really find where Sikong Jin is?" "If you want to evade the guards, according to Nalan Jingxue's ability, it is not a difficult task, and even in his eyes, it is as easy as a hand.
But it is not easy to find someone in the palace of Nuoda, not to mention that it is now an extraordinary period, the palace is densely guarded, the palace is so big, not to mention Nalan Jingxue, even Su Rui has lived here for a while, and he often gets lost, it is really difficult to find someone at night.
"Don't worry." Nalan Jingxue stretched out an index finger and touched Su Rui's lips, although he had a mask on his face, but because Su Rui was held in his arms, he could see his eyes very clearly, in the dark night, his eyes were like bright stars, with an intoxicating light, "Shake off those tails behind me, I have my own way to find him." ”
Hearing this, Su Rui looked over Nalan Jingxue's shoulder and looked behind him, under the cover of night, there were really several figures chasing them.
"Those are the Secret Guards." Nalan Jingxue said with a smile, "The person raised by the prince of your family is really good. ”
Su Rui's eyes dimmed a little, and he said in a low voice, "Soon he will have nothing to do with me." ”
"Huh? Figured it out so quickly? Nalan Jingxue laughed sullenly, and Su Rui, who was held in his arms, could feel the rise and fall of his chest.
Nalan Jingxue's body was very cold, and Su Rui was half-wrapped around his waist, only to feel that half of his body was attached to him as if it was attached to an ice block.
How could anyone have such a low body temperature? He was also very thin, and the skinny Suri felt that there was almost no flesh on him. was stuck by him, and even a little awkward.
"What I think has nothing to do with you!" Su Rui snorted coldly and replied.
Her temper has always been good, but in front of Nalan Jingxue, she is irritable, and sometimes she even throws her cultivation out of the clouds, and directly bursts into foul language.
Even Su Rui was helpless at this point, and Nalan Jingxue had the ability to provoke her.
"You could have gotten rid of them very quickly." Su Rui looked at it for a while and saw a clue, those secret guards who chased Nalan Jingxue were actually not Nalan Jingxue's opponents at all, Nalan Jingxue took Su Rui around in a circle here, just to tease them.
"It's not fun when it's too easy to do. Don't you say? Nalan Jingxue lowered her eyes and smiled at Su Rui and said slowly. They are so faithful that it would be boring for me to take them down directly. ”
Su Rui could only roll his eyes, for the thinking of a person like Nalan Jingxue, you can't keep up at all. Because he can't think in a normal way.
Finally, Nalan Jingxue took Su Rui to spare a circle again, he stopped, and took Su Rui to land steadily on the eaves of a palace's high pavilion, looked back at those people, and whispered, "Down!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the bodies of the dark guards who chased them were still in the air, as if the motor suddenly stopped, their bodies stiffened, and then they made a free fall motion straight towards the ground.
"Sure enough, it takes so long!" Nalan Jingxue said with a smile.
"You're testing the medicine again!" Su Rui raised his hand fiercely and hammered Nalan Jingxue's chest, and the tentacles were cold. She said angrily! "What is it this time? Don't hurry up and give it to others! ”
"It's not a great poison, it's just a stiff thing to make you stiff for two or three hours. As soon as time passed, it naturally unraveled. Nalan Jingxue caught Su Rui and beat her hand, her little strength knocked on her chest, there was no threat at all.
"Alright. Stop it. I'll take you to Sikong Jin. Nalan Jingxue said.
Who the hell is messing around! Su Rui's hand was grabbed and he couldn't move, so he could only glare at Nalan Jingxue angrily, eager to bite him with his teeth.
"Don't move. will fall. Nalan Jingxue gestured to Su Rui with her eyes, and Su Rui followed his gaze and looked at his feet, and instantly stopped struggling. It's so high!
Seeing that Su Rui was honest, Nalan Jingxue took out a small box from his sleeve, the box was as white as jade, and with a light press of his finger on the box, the lid of the box popped open, and several small silver flying insects flew out of the box.
The insect was small, but it had a shining silver glow, and it floated up like a star in the sky in the night, and the little insect circled the air for a moment, and then flew in one direction.
"I know where Sikong Jin is." Nalan Jingxue grabbed Su Rui's waist, flew up, and followed the flying insects to track over.
"What did you put on him?" Su Rui asked curiously.
"It's just a little tasteless." Nalan Jingxue's good-natured explanation.
Waiting for Nalan Jingxue to fall with Su Rui, Nalan Jingxue suddenly raised her hand and clicked on several of Su Rui's acupoints, and then stuffed a pill into her mouth.
Su Rui stiffened in Nalan Jingxue's arms, unable to speak or move, he could only glare at Nalan Jingxue, the pill Nalan Jingxue was so fast that Su Rui was not allowed to spit it out, so it rolled directly down Su Rui's throat.
Su Rui was furious, what the hell is this! Why does Nalan Jingxue have so much medicine on her body! Where did this pill come from? His movements were so fast that Suri couldn't see them.
As soon as the pill was down, Suri felt that she was beginning to spin around, and her body was softened by the acupuncture point, and she was paralyzed like a puddle of mud, but she did not fall to the ground, but fell into a cold and temperatureless embrace.
"This pill can temporarily seal your breath. Minimize all of your body's functions temporarily, but improve your ability to hear and see. You don't have martial arts, Sikong Jin can find you at any time. "I heard Nalan Jingxue's voice in my ears." If you want to listen to the wall safely, you can put up with it for the time being. ”
Su Rui scolded Nalan Jingxue in his heart, but there was nothing he could do.
But everyone has to be curious, and she also wants to know what Sikong Jin is doing and thinking now.
She recognized this palace, this is the residence of the fifteenth prince, and Su Rui had a big quarrel with him when he married Hu Guo.
The relationship between Sikong Jin and Sikong Anling is very good, and later Su Rui also followed Sikong Jin to visit him here, but the two of them met like black-eyed chickens, except for polite words, the eyes and tone of the two were not good.
Su Rui knew that he looked down on him, and felt that he was not worthy of the Fourteenth Emperor Brother who was like a god in his mind.
Typical dude fetish! Suri also once made such a conclusion.
I'll go. There's nothing like that between their brothers, right...... Su Rui has also read a lot of Tanmei books in modern times, and she is a rotten girl, and when Nalan Jingxue took her quietly close to the roof of the side hall of the dormitory, a picture of inappropriate children suddenly appeared in her mind.
Go and go, don't think nonsense, Su Rui hurriedly shook off these beautiful pictures.
There was silence all around, and strangely enough, Suri's hearing really seemed to have improved a lot. There are so many strange medicines on Nalan Jingxue's body.
"Brother Fourteen hasn't talked to me for a long time." Su Rui heard Sikong Anling's voice coming from the house, "When is the fourteenth brother going to marry Sister Feng?" ”
"You seem to be happy that I married her?" Sikong Jin asked a little surprised.
"Originally, you were a pair made in heaven. That ugly monster from Dajin, even if you are ugly, you are rude to death, where is it worthy of you. But Sister Feng is so pitiful now. Sikong Anling's voice continued, "I went to see her during the day. ”
You're the rude ugly bastard! Su Rui shouted in his heart, a little brat!
"Oh." Sikong Jin responded lightly and stopped talking.
"Brother Fourteen, have you and Fifth Brother encountered any problems?" Sikong Anling asked, "Why did I go to my father's place to ask for peace these days, but I was repeatedly blocked from the door, is my father really as rumored by the outside world?" ”
"What did the outside world say?" Sikong Jin's voice was slightly cold.
Sikong Anling seemed to be a little uneasy, "There's everything to say outside." And in the past few days, there are also people in the palace who are talking about it, saying that the father is terminally ill. He paused and asked, "Is there any danger to my father?" Why don't you see me? ”
"Don't worry." Sikong Jin sighed lightly, "I won't let my father have an accident." He slowly spoke out to comfort Sikong Anling. Don't think cranky, and don't chew the root of your tongue with the people in the palace. Tomorrow I will send an order that if anyone is found in the palace talking nonsense and bewitching the people, he will be killed. ”
There was a bit of decisiveness and coldness in his voice, which made Suri's heart slightly calm.
For a long time, she never thought that Sikong Jin was a prince, although she had also been called a prince before and after, until this moment, she felt the majesty and decisiveness that Sikong Jin should have as a prince.
This made her heart full of mixed feelings, and he finally let himself go.
This realization made her heart suddenly a little sore.
If he traded someone else's life for his father's life, maybe he would agree immediately without even thinking about it. After all, he is the king of Hu State, compared to this splendid country, one or two lives are nothing.
Suri's heart calmed. As soon as her heart was quiet, her hearing became more acute, and she could almost hear Sikong Jin's sigh clearly.
"Yes." Sikong Anling's voice also became solemn.
After a while, Su Rui heard Sikong Anling continue to ask, "Hasn't the son of the second emperor brother been caught yet?" ”
"Nope." Sikong Jin's slightly tired voice sounded again.
"Brother Fourteen. Yan'er is actually not bad. Can you ......"
Before Sikong Anling's words were finished, he was interrupted by Sikong Jin, "His nature is indeed not bad, but he is the son of the second emperor brother, have you forgotten the crime that the second emperor brother committed that night?" He not only wanted to kill the king and kill his father, but also killed the Eighth Emperor Brother! Those rebellious ministers and thieves who are thirsty for killing their own fathers and slaughtering their brothers will be punished for their sins. Including Yan'er. Sikong Jin's voice was a little stern, and Sikong Anling was speechless in an instant.
Perhaps the two brothers were embarrassed, and neither of them said anything more.
The room fell silent.
But it didn't take long for someone to come to report that King Wu Rui had arrived.
Soon after, Sikong Jue also entered the dormitory of Sikong Anling.
"Anling, go and rest. I have something to say to your fourteenth brother. Sikong Jue said.
Sikong Anling responded very obediently, and then left there.
"Did you hear anything?" Sikong Jue looked around suspiciously and asked.
Sikong Jin listened calmly, and Su Rui, who was so frightened, didn't even dare to gasp.
She was busy holding her breath and looked at Nalan Jingxue, who looked at her with a smile and gave her a look, signaling her to be at ease.
He gave Su Rui a modified fake death pill, which after taking it, reduced his breath to the level of a dead man. I don't know how many times this pill has been used, and even Nalan Jingxue herself doesn't dare to say that she will definitely be able to find the person who took this pill lurking around, not to mention Sikong Jin and Sikong Jue, who have no concept of this medicine at all.
Their martial arts are high, but do you feel the breath of the dead more? "Nope." Sikong Jin listened for a moment, and then said slowly.
"That's because I'm too nervous." Sikong Jue sighed and said. "My father's situation is getting worse and worse."
"I know." Sikong Jin also sighed. "Is there really only one way to go?"
"According to Nalan Jingxue's temper, it is impossible for you to force him." Sikong Jue said. "I'm afraid there's only one way. I know you don't want to trade Suri for it, whether it's public or private. Su Rui is the princess of Dajin and his own family, if we exchange her for the antidote and spread it, it will be a blow to the relationship between the two countries, and we still have Dajin now, let alone tear the skin of Su Rui and them. Privately, Su Rui is already your wife, and if you exchange your wife for an antidote, this kind of thing will be a blow to you. ”
After he finished speaking, he gently patted Sikong Jin's shoulder, "I also like that girl Suri very much." I've always felt like she's the best person for you, but now it'......."
"Fifth brother means ......" Sikong Jin's voice inadvertently trembled a little.
"As soon as my father wakes up, he will issue a decree announcing you as the crown prince, and the unfavorable rumors against us in the court will stop." Sikong Jue said, "You know my intentions, and I have always wanted you to inherit the unification. And you once aspired to the position of crown prince. Now we're just a little bit away from success. ”
"Fifth brother, don't say it!" Sikong Jue's words were rudely interrupted by Sikong Jin.
Suri's heart was as cold as her body, and her gaze gradually lost its vitality.
It turns out that her current existence is actually a stumbling block and a driving force. As long as she is handed over in exchange for an antidote, Sikong Jin will become the crown prince of Hu State.
Su Rui slowly closed his eyes, and his heart was sour.
Why is this happening?
There was silence all around, and the quiet Suri had the illusion that everything was still at this moment.
It was a long time before the voice of the room came to her ears again.
"If you don't want to, we can really only watch our father die." Sikong Jue sighed and said.
"It's not that I'm not filial!" Sikong Jin said, "I'm really ......"
"I know, I don't need to say it anymore." Sikong Jue said, "I can't bear Su Rui either." She is really a good girl, without the squeamishness and arrogance of a princess. Let's figure it out another way. ”
"Is there really a way?" Sikong Jin couldn't help but smile bitterly and said.
"Not at the moment." Sikong Jue said. "But the fourteenth brother, who is the emperor and the emperor, if he is stumped by too many other things, I am afraid that it will not be good. That's one of the reasons why I'm reluctant to go down that path. ”
"The road that the fifth brother doesn't want to take, do you want me to come?" Sikong Jin's voice suddenly had a bit of sadness in it.
"Then who do you say Hu Guo is suitable for inheritance?" Sikong Jue asked rhetorically, "Now that we have been riding a tiger, besides, you have always been very high-spirited, and you have the capital to be the emperor." There are even more conditions for that. Before you were injured, you were determined to win the crown prince. How is it that now it has become indifferent? ”
"Fifth brother, don't force me. Let me think again. "Sikong Jin rushed to the road." Let me think again. ”
"I'm not forcing you, it's my father who really can't afford to wait!" Sikong Jue said, "If you want to take an idea, you'd better take it immediately!" He paused, "I'm afraid my father won't be able to delay for three days." ”
Sikong Jin was distraught and had mixed thoughts. On one side is the father, on the other side is the wife, and on the other side are close relatives!
