Chapter 221: The Kiss of Life

The fragrance of the orchid fingertips is faint, soft and weak, but it is as heavy as a rock and crushes the life like insects and ants.

One by one, his gaze followed Zhang Xixi's guidance, and fell on Zhou Manyun, who still maintained an upright posture, and some of them glanced at the big water method that was still spraying red mist. The "play" that Concubine Zhang said would not feel relaxed in anyone's ears.

In the suffocating silence, Emperor Taiye smiled and bit Zhang Xixi's ear, and asked vaguely: "The concubine raised this woman for more than a month, didn't she give it away?" ”

"I originally wanted to present her to the emperor, but I'm tired of her now, and I don't want her to get close to Bixia!" , Zhang Xixi bit her lip angrily, her pink cheeks bulged into two round lumps of red, and a girl was harmless and angry. Holding Emperor Taiye's arms tightly with both hands and shaking, she wondered in her heart whether this move would lead to the emperor's interest in Zhou Manyun, and her eyes flashing with tears showed pity.

Emperor Taiye did not immediately respond to Zhang Xixi's request, but looked at Zhou Manyun's side face more seriously, and after a while, he leaned back on the throne with interest and waved his hand: "I will follow the will of the concubine." ”

The woman kneeling at the bottom, her body was not shaking, her hair was not messy, she did not hear the slightest panic that her fate was tied to the assassin waiting for death, and she looked like a lady who was in good shape and had trained the rules. Although she has a good appearance and a snowy skin, she is also reverie, but such a tasteless woman who will not scream even if she kills her is like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and she can't arouse the interest of Emperor Taiye at all.

Zhang Xixi's smile was magnified brightly, and one hand under his sleeve tightly held the palm of Emperor Taiye's hand, and whispered in his ear lovingly.

Emperor Taiye looked at Zhou Manyun, nodded with a smile, and scraped his bent fingers on Zhang Xixi's pretty nose.

Zhang Xixi was coquettish and disgusted, and hid with a smile. On the one hand, he gave a series of orders that had been approved by the Son of Heaven.

The four assassins who still had their lives left on the side of the Great Water Law were escorted to the throne together, and they were no more than three feet away from Zhou Manyun's side when they fell or knelt.

"Since Manager Hu said that this woman is related to assassins, this palace will count her as one of them." , Zhang Xi raised his chin arrogantly and glanced at Liu Hou, who was sitting at the bottom, with contempt. said coldly: "In front of Bixia, no one will say that this woman has anything to do with this palace, right?" ”

Lu Zheng, who was sitting on the chair, closed his eyes slightly, motionless, as if he didn't feel Xiao Hong's coarse breath behind him at all. He only knocked the thick-soled cloud boot on his foot to the side, and smashed it firmly on the young man's calf that he gently moved forward.

Xiao Hong silently lowered his head and looked at his empty waist. At night, he went to the palace, and he didn't bring any of the original weapons that might have identified his identity, and now he unloaded all the sharp weapons before entering the Yuzao Palace. In the Tamamo Palace, which is now heavily defended, rushing out is just a matter of finding death faster.

His gaze lifted again uncontrollably. With a touch of sadness, it stuck to Zhou Manyun's calm face.

It's that look again! The condescending Zhang Xixi saw it clearly in his eyes, and his smile at Man Yun became even brighter, "However, Xia Yunji counts you as an assassin like this, you will definitely be dissatisfied in your heart, and you will also complain that this palace is thin and can't protect people." ”

"Little girl don't dare!" , Zhou Manyun responded softly.

Can't? What would a woman who dare to threaten to kill a king? If she dies like this, it will be cheaper for her!

A trace of cruelty slipped across Zhang Xixi's face, and Shi Shiran stood up. Covering his lips and giggling, he said softly, "Xia Yunji." This palace remembers your companionship in the past month, and chooses a good family for you. These assassins are all young men, and if you choose one of them, this palace will exonerate them and let you escape with him. As long as you don't get caught again, you can do it to the little mandarin duck. ”

Zhou Manyun's body has been tense. Hearing this, he couldn't help but relax, and turned his gaze to look at the four assassins who were tied up beside him.

"The crime of killing the monarch will destroy the nine clans, how can the concubine let people go lightly!" , Since knowing that the situation is unfavorable, Liu Hou, who has been practicing closed meditation, raised his voice to question. A face of determination to defend the law.

"Bixia has already promised!" , Zhang Xixi responded coquettishly, and deliberately looked back at Emperor Taiye, and under the nod of Emperor Bixia's acquiescence, his eyebrows flew even more, "What's more, the palace just lets them leave the palace, Liu Baoying, you can continue to let your uncle and Manager Hu go to arrest them together!" If they are caught again, they will be pulled back and killed! ”

Like a cat playing with a mouse, I don't want to eat it in one bite, so I naturally use it to play with it for a while.

Hu Jin, who was standing on the side, weighed the skills of the four remaining assassins. Leaving only one injured person and forcing him to bring a harem beauty who is purely a drag, but it is also a matter of being caught, so why bother to whet the interest of Emperor Bixia here.

Hu Jin thought about it, and immediately squeezed his eyes at Liu Hou, and glanced behind Lu Zheng with the tail of his eyes.

Xiao Hong, who was wrapped in black, closed his eyes slightly. At first glance, when he heard that his woman was allowed out like a commodity, his heart was inevitably slightly sour, but this was also a chance for Man Yun to escape, he understood that Man Yun was not as weak as he appeared, and if he got out, he still had the ability to hide in the dark.

It's just that Zhang Xixi's method of "playing" is still weird.

Xiao Hong, who had not paid attention to the four assassins just now, quietly glanced over with a scrutinizing gaze.

Jumping over a black-skinned young man with angry eyes, Xiao Hong's eyes were glued to the face of a handsome young man with wheat muscles along with Zhou Manyun's beautiful eyes. The bound assassin closed his eyes and pursed his lips, as if he had completely closed his five senses, not even aware that a pair of children were quietly communicating with him as the center.

Xiao Hong raised his face and looked at Man Yun fixedly, with suspicion in his eyes.

Zhou Manyun quickly turned his head away and stared at his knee again.

That's right! Empress Liu remembered the news she received from outside the palace last night, and a sneer hung on the corner of her mouth. The emperor pampers Zhang the most, but the one he hates the most is surnamed Xiao, if Xiao Zhang is really connected, what will be the result? If the children's affairs that my uncle secretly said when he reported the letter were true, and the Xia Yunji in front of her was also the daughter of the Zhou family, then even if there was no witness, she could ask for a love certificate.

Empress Liu, who had made up her mind, raised her wrist, and Wen Dun beckoned to Lu Zheng amiably, saying, "Concubine Zhang is kind and kind. Hongu also wanted to join in the fun. The Qinglong secret guard beside Gonggong Lu is the one who has a bad heart, you also come out! Since Mr. Hu wronged you just now, this palace feels that you should be given a chance to get a beautiful woman as compensation! ”。

A black figure heard the edict ordered by the queen, slowly turned the back of Gonggong Lu's chair, and quietly knelt down on one knee beside Zhou Manyun.

Lu Zheng stared coldly at Xiao Hong and the back of the woman beside him. A mouthful of churning blood pressed against his throat again, he clenched the old hand with bruised muscles, his two white eyebrows shrugged slightly, and the killing intent in his eyes gradually converged, not revealing the slightest, but leaning back on the back of the chair, as if he was waiting for the result of a few damn women.

It's a big deal, it's just a life and death together! Although he couldn't say a word, he had already held her breath tightly, and Xiao Hong's face under the face towel smiled with relief. The corners of his mouth were covered with a trace of blood with the scab, and his eyes were also filled with a faint sense of relief.

Feeling the gaze coming from the side of his face, Zhou Manyun mourned in his heart, and the hand pressing on the side of his skirt suddenly tightened.

Xiao Hong, who had already left with Gonggong Lu, was also passed to Yuzao Palace, which she didn't expect before. Originally, I talked about the conditions with Zhang Xixi, but if I change it again, will there be more variables? And if you let the silver come out at this time. What are the chances of escaping together?

Zhou Manyun's eyes fell on the amethyst who was squatting under the throne, and it darkened. Now. She didn't have the slightest confidence at all, if she resolutely broke out to assassinate the Eunuch Lu and Amethyst, she would choose to stand by and do nothing, not to mention the Yuzao Palace, where the emperor personally interrogated the assassins, the inner three layers and the outer three layers were already like iron buckets, and the cluster of arrows on the top of the palace wall alone was enough to tie them into hedgehogs.

With a cold snort proudly, Zhang Xixi sat down elegantly. squeezed back to the emperor's side, completely ignoring Empress Liu's secret provocation. Although Liu Baoying's usual actions are not in line with her wishes, this time, Liu Hou's self-cleverness is exactly what Zhang Xixi wants.

To survive in the harem, the woman who can survive is stupid and stupid. The most important thing is the ability to read faces, and the obscurity between children is nothing but transparent in their eyes.

"Xia Yunji! You have to think about it, who are you going to choose? Zhang Xixi urged with a smile, proud in her heart. She remembered what Zhou Manyun asked for before, so she understood that no matter what Zhou Manyun chosen, she would put herself in a painful situation.

"Can I see your face?" , Zhou Manyun moved his body sideways, and his eyes flashed to Xiao Hong.

The black face towel was removed, and the people up and down gasped in unison. A tall and handsome man with an extremely ugly face. The black scab on the left cheek seemed to be alive, and it continued to invade the red and swollen blisters on the right side, which was very terrifying.

After all, it was overdosed. Zhou Manyun turned his head sadly.

Although she knew that it was something wrong and she couldn't express her feelings, the woman who quickly turned her head still made Xiao Hong's eyes have a faint layer of gloom. As soon as his throat moved slightly, he immediately noticed a coldness slipping through the side of his leg, like the pain of being pricked for a moment.

Amethyst, who was originally lying on the edge of the throne, straightened up and opened her eyes, and found that the playmate Yinzi, who had just been handed over recently, had suddenly disappeared again, and fell down again.

Slowly stretching out his hands to re-wrap his face scarf, Xiao Hong, who was thinking about the strange feeling just now, stared at Zhou Manyun's every move when he moved to the assassin, and his heart slowly sank towards the dark and cold abyss little by little.

"Concubine Niang! I'll choose him! After Zhou Manyun looked at everyone one by one, he held the shoulders of the young man in the middle.

A pair of tightly closed star eyes opened, and stared at Zhou Manyun fiercely with a wolf-like fierce light, and the handsome young man turned his face away without appreciation.

"Little girls love to be handsome!" , Zhang Xixi on the throne smiled and leaned back together, and his soft little fist slammed into the Son of Heaven one after another.

Emperor Taiye, who was inexplicably happy by the beauty in his arms, also grabbed the back of Zhang Xixi's head and kissed the plump cherry lips.

The touch of the lips and teeth made the Son of Heaven's narrow heart burn even more, and he hugged Zhang Xixi and gave the holy decree loudly, "Xia Yunji! You're going to run for your life, and you can't go to the cave! Why don't you kiss your newlywed husband and take him for his life! ”

The Empress Dove, the palace guards, there are hundreds of eyes staring at each other within a wall, especially not far away, and there are eyes that can burn all their internal organs and lungs.

Zhou Manyun's body couldn't stop shaking, and his raised hands clasped his pale red lips.

Zhang Xixi's pair of jade arms were wrapped around Emperor Taiye's neck, and his eyebrows and eyes were full of understanding. Just as the silly woman below had talked to her about the love of the world, she could see that this woman's choice at this time was not about love. In the early morning, when Zhou Manyun threatened to change the assassin's life, he definitely didn't expect to meet the one he really liked in Yuzao Palace.

Delusional to hurt the man she has relied on all her life, and the end of losing her loved one is the real retribution! Zhang Xixi curled the corners of her mouth and urged: "Xia Yunji, don't you like this man you chose?" If you don't like it, the main palace will cut ......"

The lotus pink clothes were gently raised, Zhou Manyun jumped up and hugged the shoulders of the man in front of him, and whispered in his ear: "Brother Xiao Yu, Yun'er must take you away!" ”

The man's eyes widened in astonishment, and his thin lips quivered, and then he felt the warmth of the two petals pressed against him with a slight dampness.

In the sound of the imperial concubine's stroking of her palms, Xiao Hong, who was still sitting on the side, closed her eyes in pain......

"Please! Whatever you give up, come with me first! As soon as the palace guard stepped forward to untie the rope on Xu Yu's body, Zhou Manyun grabbed his wrist and begged in a low voice.

What is it that is abandoned? Xu Yu, who was supported by Man Yun, looked back at his companion who was still lying on the ground, two tears slid down his cheeks, gritted his teeth fiercely, and his wide palm held Man Yun's cold little hand.

The two figures leaned on each other and staggered towards the gate of the Tamamo Palace, and the leaking pot in front of the Stacking Mansion was timed, saying that the pursuers who would search after three moments would sneak in, but they couldn't put their trust in those crazy nobles.

"It is said that the level of the Bixia dark guard is not low, but a woman would rather die than choose a handsome one, and she refuses to follow you to find a way to live...... What is the point of living in the world for an ugly person like you...... Bixia, now that there is one less assassin, it is better to let this ugly monster take the place and see what it will look like if his blood is in the water method......"

The ethereal sound of the wind behind him shook Manyun's ear drums like thunder.

The sky is raining, and the raindrops are like ripples, as if no matter how to hide or hide, there is a bloody smell in front of the Stacky Building.

She didn't dare to stop, she didn't dare to look back, she just blindly grabbed Xu Yu's hand tightly, forward, all the way forward.

Outside the twists and turns of the 44th Bridge, the Tuojiang River line stretched in front of him, Zhou Manyun turned his face sideways and glanced at Xu Yu, and smiled desolately...... (To be continued......)
