59. Chapter 59
It was a dark night, with no stars and no moon, and the sky was like a piece of paper splashed with thick ink, and there was no light to be seen.
At midnight, there was silence all around, except for the hysterical chanting of the autumn cicadas as in their last salute to life.
In the courtyard of the cold palace, there was a strong nightshade of incense, which seemed so light and ethereal in the already quiet night.
The candles had long since been extinguished in this cold palace shrouded in darkness, and the woman with a soft face was now lying comfortably on the big bed in the bedroom with a lovely and beautiful boy in her hands, she seemed to have dreamed of something beautiful, with a happy and smug smile on the corner of her mouth.
During the day, because of the relationship between the night sun of the northern snow, Emperor Tianming remembered that Concubine Rou, who he had loved and cared for in every way, was in the cold palace at the moment, and specially sent people to send all kinds of food, use, play, and even sent a lot of nightshade, not only the courtyard, but even the bedroom was full of nightshade, and there was a strong fragrance everywhere in the cold palace.
In the dark night of this midnight, suddenly, the black figure of several days jumped over the wall into the cold palace, the neat skills, and the silent movements when landing, all showed how unfathomable the martial arts of people are.
"Boss, this is what the master said!"
As soon as the few people landed, they saw a man in black take out a scroll from his arms, open it and look around twice, then step forward and whisper to the man in black standing at the front.
"Well, very good, all of you remember, the master told us to be sure to spare that woman's life, you have to be careful with me, it doesn't matter if you are crippled or dumb, as long as you don't die!"
The man's eyes were vicious outside the black room, and he whispered to a few black-clothed men behind him, and the voice was the black-clothed killer who let me go under the bushes when I rescued Molingshuang that day.
"You... Who are you and what are you doing here! ”
Duanmu Yurou woke up the moment the door was kicked open, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw several tall figures coming straight to her, they were all dressed in black and covered with black scarves, and they couldn't see their faces and where they came from, she subconsciously pulled the quilt and seemed to wrap her body, but in fact it was wrapped in Yeyang, who was awakened by the sound of kicking the door, and was rubbing her eyes and trying to get up.
"Do you know that this is a forbidden place in the palace, and this palace is the emperor's favorite concubine, you will be killed if you break into here at will like this!"
Duanmu Yurou trembled his voice and reprimanded a few people who were vicious, carrying the back corner upwards with one hand, and quietly leaning into the quilt with the other, rubbing and covering Beixue Yeyang's mouth, Yeyang, who was hidden in the quilt, understood the meaning of the concubine, carefully shrunk into a ball, and did not dare to move, the three-year-old child was already very small, coupled with the dark sky in the middle of the night without stars and moons, for a while, those people in black did not realize that there was a small child in the quilt.
"Concubine Rou, do you think we won't know what this place is, who you are? Hahaha...... The world says that the women in the inner courtyard of the deep palace are the most scheming and extremely smart, and I don't think so, otherwise how could the noble Concubine Rou Niangniang say such innocent and simple words? It's really disappointing. ”
The man in black looked at Duanmu Yurou sneeringly, a little disapproving of her reprimand, in the night, he waved the sharp long sword in his hand twice at will, and the cold wind brought by the long sword dance made Duanmu Yurou on the bed retreat to the corner of the bed in horror, but that angle just blocked the night sun under him.
"It seems that there is no way to live in this palace today, but before this palace dies, can we know who wants this palace's life!"
Duanmu Yurou was so afraid that she was calm to the extreme, and her soft eyes stared at the man in black who took the lead, and asked unwillingly.
"Does it make sense to know who it is? Anyway, you're going to die soon, don't worry, I won't let you die a happy death, I'll let you out of this world little by little, look! How good I am to you, let you see as much of this beautiful world as possible! ”
"Tell Hongu! Otherwise, the ghosts of this palace will not let a few of you go! ”
The night breeze floated, the bed veil fluttered, Duanmu Yurou's eyes were wide open, she had already taken off her makeup and was sleeping with her long hair scattered, this would sit on the bed with a pale face, and her round eyes looked at the man in black sadly, and she really felt like a female ghost in such a dark night.
"Boss, this woman is going to die anyway, let's just tell her! Otherwise, it won't be good for her to pester a few of us when the time comes! Behind him, a man in black stepped forward and whispered a few words in the ear of the man in black who was a little hesitant.
"Stinky boy, your eldest brother, am I so worried and afraid of things!" The man in black kicked sideways and kicked the man in black to the side, then he cleared his throat and said impatiently, "Huh! You're going to die anyway, and you're not going to be able to make any waves, okay! I tell you, the person who wants to kill you is the current saint, His Majesty the Emperor who loves you and loves you! ”
"What!" Duanmu Yurou listened to the words of the man in black, her face quickly turned gray, she stared at the man in black in disbelief, using all her strength not to let herself believe this man's words, her voice trembled, her eyes were crazy and she tried to refute the words of the man in black, "Impossible, it is impossible for the emperor to kill me, just this afternoon he was still praising the twelve princes I gave birth to with him for being smart and lovely, and he is a material that can be made; He also sent a lot of people from the Inner Chamberlain Bureau to send a lot of food, clothing, and use to the cold palace, you see, in the courtyard, in the bedroom, you look at these blooming nightshades around you, they are all sent by the emperor, how could he kill me, you must be lying to me, say! Who the hell asked you to use such indiscriminate tricks to deceive me and drive a wedge between me and the emperor! ”
Frightened, Duanmu Yurou didn't even need to claim himself, but the man in black just looked at him coldly, and his eyes exposed outside the black room looked down at Duanmu Yurou who refused to admit the truth, full of pity.
"Nightshade? Deceit? Discord? Woman, don't you think you're overestimating yourself? Do you think you're about to die, what's worth deceiving us? Hehe! It's ridiculous, why do you think that the few newly configured minions in the cold palace and the few secret guards who are secretly protecting outside the cold palace have not come to save you for so long? ”
The man in black took a step forward in Duanmu Yurou's increasingly frightened eyes, and his tall body leaned down slightly, enveloping Duanmu Yurou under his tall body, and his tone was cold and ruthless to crush the woman's last bit of hope.
"It's because of this night! It's its scent that makes it easy for us to sneak in without the slightest resistance. Also, since I have already told you this, I might as well tell you the reason why you have to die, the saint said, His Royal Highness the Twelve Princes should not have a mother who thinks you are in the cold palace, which will add failure to his future success, so he let you die for the Twelve Princes, even so, you don't have to complain, and go on the road with peace of mind! ”
As soon as the words fell, the man in black's vicious eyes lit up, took out a thick hemp rope from his arms, dragged it twice in the air, and neatly put his hands and feet on Duanmu Yurou's slender neck who retreated in fear, and pulled it back, so that Duanmu Yurou began to roll his eyes in an instant.
"You are not allowed to hurt my mother! Bad guys, you go die! ”
In the dark night, accompanied by a crisp child's voice, a slender golden hairpin was pierced on the strong arm of the man in black, he was unexpectedly stabbed, under the pain, his strong hand was released, and Duanmu Yurou let go of Duanmu Yurou, Duanmu Yurou kept choking and coughing and slumped on the ground, like a fish stranded on the beach, panting heavily.
The man in black stood up with his arms covered, and looked at the voice, and saw a cute boy who was only three or four years old glaring at him angrily, and his hand was still inserting the movement......
