Chapter 107, Cracked
On a road in the capital.
Nie Zhou rode forward quickly, his bow and arrows on his back, and his bag was full of arrows.
Zuo Qi rode behind Nie Zhou, and behind the two of them, eight Da Nei masters rode horses and followed closely behind, each of them carrying a long sword and a bow and arrow.
Suddenly, Nie Zhou tightened the reins, and he found that the terrain was very high, and the trees on both sides of the road were very conducive to hiding, and this was the only way back to the palace.
This road only leads to the palace, and there can be no pedestrians and vehicles coming and going, so Nie Zhou has a plan in mind to set up an ambush.
Seeing Nie Zhou slow down his horseback, Zuo Qi probably guessed his intentions.
"Commander Nie, this place is not too far from the palace, so we will ambush here."
Nie Zhou ignored Zuo Qi, but said to the master behind him: "You all dismount, hurry up and lead the horses to the woods and tie them up." ”
Zuo Qi frowned, knowing that Nie Zhou looked down on himself and the master of Ouchi. Although Zuo Qi had a lot of anger towards Nie Zhou in his heart, he understood that he couldn't afford to offend him, because now the Queen Mother trusted Nie Zhou very much.
"Commander Nie, take the master of Ouchi to the other side of the road and hide."
"Zuo Qi, remember that Yunhu's martial arts are outstanding, once Yunhu drives the carriage by, you and the master of Ouchi will immediately shoot arrows together."
Zuo Qi thought that Nie Zhou was so vicious, it seemed that Yunhu would not escape, he was just doing things for the Queen Mother, Yunhu didn't blame himself.
"Commander Nie, I understand that everything is done according to the plan."
Zuo Qifei dismounted, led the horse into the woods to tie the horse, and then quickly hid with the eight masters, Zuo Qi told his masters to take a bow and be ready to shoot arrows.
At this time, Nie Zhou hid next to a big tree and observed closely from a high position.
He took off his bow and arrows, and set up the arrows.
He has never dealt with Gao Ping, since he is the Queen Mother, he must save Gao Ping by himself, presumably he is very important to the Queen Mother.
Today I finally waited for the opportunity to be able to take revenge on Yunhu, although my martial arts may not be as good as Yunhu, but I have the kung fu of a hundred steps to penetrate Yang.
Yunhu and Princess Xuanying must have left the palace in a carriage, because they were going to escort Gao Ping back to the palace. As soon as Yunhu drove the carriage past here, he would kill Yunhu with one arrow.
If Princess Xuanying drove the carriage herself, she would be able to complete the task given to her by the Queen Mother.
Today's battle is very important to him, and if he succeeds in his actions, he will gain the trust of the Queen Mother.
Nie Zhou sighed lightly, he was already enough to be the queen mother's subordinate, and when Captain Mu came back, he tried his best to make Captain Mu value him.
Thinking that he was once the commander of the majestic Praetorian Guard, Nie Zhou clenched his teeth, Yunhu was cornered, and he had no choice but to do things for the Queen Mother.
It is a miracle that Yunhu was able to escape death in the desert, but this is the place where Yunhu was buried.
……
At this time, Su Yifei drove the carriage to slow down, because there was still a way to go back to the palace, and he should be separated from Yuying in a while.
Gao Ping is scheming, as long as he and Yuying take action, he will definitely be able to detect the abnormality, and he may guess that the Queen Mother sent someone to save him.
Su Yifei thought that Gao Ping was likely to regret it, but he should be clear about his current situation. Gao Ping not only knew the secret of the Queen Mother, but also shot Princess Xuanying with a poisoned arrow in the desert.
Can Gao Ping understand that he is the hidden danger of the Queen Mother, even if the Queen Mother sends someone to save him, he has no way out, because he knows the Queen Mother's personality.
In the carriage, Yuying held the full moon scimitar in her hand, and did not dare to relax in the slightest.
Yuying was a little worried in her heart, Yifei must have thought of encountering danger on the way, so Yifei personally drove the carriage.
Suddenly Yuying thought of the Queen Mother, she must have already learned that she and Yifei had left the palace, no matter whether the Queen Mother guessed that Gao Ping was arrested, her purpose was to get rid of herself and Yifei.
Now the masters under the Queen Mother are likely to have set up an ambush on the way, since the Queen Mother wants to kill herself and a fly, the masters of the Queen Mother's faction will definitely use flying arrows.
How to resist the random arrows of Yifei, but he can't ask Yifei in front of Gao Ping. Although Yuying is very anxious, she believes that Yifei has already taken countermeasures, and she must be ready to face it.
At this time, Gao Ping closed his eyes, thinking about his situation. If you tell the truth about the desert to the emperor after returning to the palace, you will be put into prison if you don't die.
The Queen Mother is the emperor's mother, and it is impossible for the emperor to punish the Queen Mother severely, and the Queen Mother will put all the blame on herself. Gao Ping knew that the Queen Mother was ruthless, and he betrayed the Queen Mother to death.
Gao Ping felt torn between a dilemma, and suddenly a terrible thought flashed through his mind. The Queen Mother seemed to know that her family lived in Wuhe Town, and Gao Ping shuddered.
The Queen Mother will definitely kill her whole family, and she can't go back to the palace.
Suddenly, Gao Ping opened his eyes and hit the window of the carriage hard.
"Yunhu, stop the carriage quickly, I have something important to tell you, otherwise I won't go back to the palace with you if I die."
Yuying said sharply: "Gao Ping, what do you want, you have something to say." ”
Su Yifei tightened the reins, stopped the carriage, and flew down from the carriage.
Gao Ping must have thought of something, what was the important thing that worried Gao Ping. You also have to act at the right time and beware of Gao Ping's escape.
At this time, Yuying did not put down the full moon scimitar, but stared at Gao Ping even more.
"Gao Ping, what is important to you, if you want to play tricks and escape, the full moon scimitar in my hand will never spare you."
"Princess Xuanying, I have no way back now, and the Queen Mother will not let me go, although I know that my sin is unforgivable, but I am very worried about the safety of my family."
At this time, Su Yifei entered the carriage.
"Gao Ping, what do you want to tell me?"
"Yunhu, once the Queen Mother learns that I have been captured and returned to the palace, she will definitely be worried that I will betray her. With the cruelty of the Queen Mother, she will definitely send someone to kidnap my family in order to blackmail me. ”
Su Yifei thought that since the Queen Mother was going to send someone to hold Gao Ping's family hostage, the Queen Mother would definitely divide the troops into two ways, and she must transfer Gao Ping before she was under the Queen Mother.
Su Yifei asked eagerly: "Where does your family live in the capital, we will go immediately." ”
Gao Ping didn't expect that Yunhu would care about his family, and he regretted that he had once killed Yunhu and Princess Xuanying coldly in the desert.
"Yunhu, my family lives in Wuhe Town."
Su Yifei had an idea in his heart, it would take a long time for the Queen Mother's subordinates to rush to Wuhe Town, and he could let Leng Zihan and Weishan go to Wuhe Town.
"Gao Ping, you tell me the address where your family lives in Wuhe Zhending, and I will drive the carriage back to find Weishan for help."
Gao Ping told Su Yifei the address in detail, but he was worried about how his family would believe Wei Shan, and suddenly he thought of the jade pendant he was wearing.
"Yunhu, you can give my jade pendant to my family, and they will believe Wei Shan if they recognize the jade pendant."
Su Yifei found the jade pendant from Gao Ping's body, got out of the carriage, quickly flew onto the carriage, turned the carriage and galloped away.
When Su Yifei drove the carriage to the gate of Wei Shan's residence, Wei Shan and Leng Zihan ran out of the courtyard. They quickly ran to the carriage, thinking that Su Yifei must have something urgent before returning.
"Su Yifei, is there anything we need help with, or is there something wrong on the road."
Su Yifei got out of the carriage.
"Wei Shan, Leng Zihan, there is an urgent matter that requires you to go to Wuhe Town now."
Wei Shan couldn't wait to ask, "What's the important thing?" ”
Gao Ping's family lived in Wuhe Town, and he was worried that the Empress Dowager would hold his family hostage, and that the Empress Dowager's men might well have left the palace. This is Gao Ping's jade pendant, and you will hand over the jade pendant to Gao Ping's family after you arrive in Wuhe Town. ”
"Su Yifei, I know what to do, time is pressing, Leng Gongzi and I will set off immediately. When the matter is done, the pigeon will pass you the book. ”
"Okay, let's split up. By the way, Weishan will help me guard Gaoping, I have something to tell Yuying. ”
When Wei Shan took over from Yuying to see Shou Gaoping, Yuying quickly got out of the carriage, thinking that she would finally have the opportunity to discuss countermeasures with Yifei.
Yuying strode up to Yifei and whispered: "Yifei, the Queen Mother will send a master to ambush halfway, and the master must have a bow and arrow." ”
"Yuying, I've already thought of a countermeasure."
Su Yifei whispered a few words to Yuying, and Yuying frowned, but understood that it could only be so.
"Yifei, wait until you get to the place where the Queen Mother's men are ambushing, be careful."
……
In the Shulan Palace, Qingrou opened every cabinet in the bedroom, but there was not even a shadow of the qin.
Qingrou was unwilling, ran to the kitchen of Shulan Palace, and found that the cauldron was covered with a lid, and her heart moved, maybe Xuan Ying put the piano into the cauldron before leaving.
Qingrou lifted the lid of the pot and looked at it, and was immediately disappointed and deflated, there were only a few baked cakes in the cauldron.
Thinking that her aunt only knew how to use herself, Qingrou was very annoyed, but she pretended to help her aunt steal the piano in order to gain her aunt's trust.
My aunt had always been scheming, and she certainly wouldn't easily believe that she was willing to help her.
Qing Rou picked up a pancake and ate it.
Although the baked cakes were delicious, Qingrou was bitter and jealous in her heart. It must be Xuan Ying who baked cakes for Brother Yunhu to eat, Yunhu loves Xuan Ying so much, he can't save Brother Yunhu's heart no matter what.
Qingrou sighed, what would Brother Yunhu do if he had to deal with his father in the future.
Qingrou was worried in her heart, why did Brother Yunhu and Xuan Ying think that it was their father who planned the hunt in the desert that year.
It seems that he has to work more hard by his aunt's side to make her trust her.
Suddenly, Qingrou frowned, why Xuan Ying and Brother Yunhu left the palace, my aunt must know.
Since I couldn't find the piano, I went back to find out the truth of my aunt.
Qingrou walked out of the Shulan Palace, closed the door, and hurried to the Queen Mother's palace.
At this time, in the palace of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother was anxiously waiting for Nie Zhou's news, although everything was ready, the Queen Mother was still worried and anxious.
With Yunhu's strategy and foresight, he would have guessed that he would send someone to ambush him halfway, whether Nie Zhou and Zuo Qi could save Gao Ping.
Xuan Ying and Yunhu can only leave the palace for Gao Ping, it depends on Nie Zhou's ability.
However, no matter how worried he is, he can't control everything, although Gao Ping will not betray himself, it is always a hidden danger to keep him.
Fortunately, he had sent someone to Wuhe Town, as long as Gao Ping's family was in his hands, he would not dare to betray himself, let alone tell the emperor the truth about the desert back then.
Suddenly, the Queen Mother's eyes showed a cold light, and she must not let anyone threaten her, even Gao Ping, who has followed her for many years.
At this time, Qingrou walked into the hall and deliberately pretended to be depressed. As soon as the Queen Mother saw Qingrou's decadent appearance, she knew that she had not found the qin.
"Auntie, Qingrou searched all over the Shulan Hall and didn't find Xuan Ying's qin."
"Don't get in the way, anyway, Xuan Ying won't have the life to play the piano again."
Qingrou gasped, what does aunt mean, could it be that aunt has already sent someone to hunt down Xuan Ying and Brother Yunhu, but aunt is Brother Yunhu's martial arts, and her masters are all inferior to Brother Yunhu.
Qingrou immediately pretended to be happy, gritted her teeth and said, "Auntie, great, I have been looking forward to Xuan Ying's death for a long time, and I can't wait to kill Xuan Ying." ”
The Queen Mother looked at Qingrou and said coldly: "Qingrou, today is also the death period of Yunhu. ”
Qingrou tried her best to calm herself down, gritted her teeth secretly, and suddenly thought of an idea that she couldn't be too calm.
Qing Rou stomped her feet and said fiercely: "Auntie, why do you want to fulfill Xuanying and Brother Yunhu?" can't be cheap Xuan Ying, she can be with Brother Yunhu forever when she dies. ”
The Queen Mother was not surprised at all, because Qingrou was so imperious. Although she still cares about Yunhu very much, she just wants to be soft and have one heart.
"Qingrou, let Xuan Ying and Yunhu accompany each other on Huangquan Road, anyway, Yunhu doesn't have you in his heart at all, and now you will accompany your aunt and wait for news."
