Chapter 121: Seed Causes

If she had moved sideways a little more just now, I was afraid that her head would have become a barbecue skewer by now......

Han Shili hid behind the door, heard that there was suddenly no movement outside, was worried, and called: "Green kite!" ”

Ye Lingyi looked at the door from the corner of his eye, and said vigorously: "Don't come out!" ”

After the door regained calm, Ye Lingyi turned his gaze back and stared closely at the person in front of him who was holding a bow and arrow and pointing it directly at his forehead.

Looking at the figure, she was a woman, wearing a black cloak, and wearing a cloak and hat made it difficult to see her appearance, but even so, Ye Lingyi could still feel how cruel the eyes hidden in the shadow of the hat were.

Just looking at the person's outfit, Ye Lingyi restrained his nervousness, and said with a calm smile: "I can't imagine that there are still women in the blue wolf warrior?" ”

The man raised the corners of his mouth and smiled disdainfully, his voice ghostly: "What is a blue wolf?" It's just something that doesn't succeed enough and more things fail! I'm not like them! ”

Daring to say such a big thing, Ye Lingyi became interested: "Then tell me, who are you doing things for?" ”

His eyes were a little sharper, and he asked, "The Queen Mother?" ”

"You don't have a chance to know! Let's die with Concubine Han! The voice fell, and the three arrows were fired in unison......

The intent of slaughter is close to the door.

Ye Lingyi leaned back to avoid it, although his movements were extremely fast, his cheek was still scratched by the arrow because the distance was too close.

However, the female assassin didn't get a good deal either, and at the moment when she leaned back to avoid the arrow, Ye Lingyi's hand holding the short knife was not idle, and she turned the edge of the blade and swung it upward......

"Hiss".

The female Assassin's hand holding the bow and arrow is slightly tilted.

The three arrows that were fired did not hit the target, but were directly nailed into the opposite pillar.

The knife just now, Ye Lingyi used ten percent of her strength, even if it was copper skin and iron bones, she had to break a few tendons, and then she stood up, the female assassin could no longer care about the bow and arrow in her hand, covered her injured and bleeding arm, and said viciously: "I have written down this knife!" One day I will pay for your life! ”

Then he turned around and wanted to flee.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Lingyi pulled out his legs to chase after him, but he accidentally stepped on something under his feet, and subconsciously moved his feet, and instantly burst out of turbid smoke, blocking his vision.

Forcefully dissipate the smoke, where is there still a female assassin? And there are two iron "walnut shells" left on the ground.

Ye Lingyi picked it up and looked at it carefully, with a puzzled face.

"It's a curtain walnut!"

Han Shili didn't know when he came out.

Ye Lingyi turned his puzzled gaze to Han Shili and asked, "What is a burst walnut?" ”

Han Shili took the "walnut shell" in her hand and explained: "It was originally a special prop used in the troupe, such as singing the scene of Chang'e running to the moon, the actors would sprinkle a few walnuts on the stage in advance, and when they were in the moon, they would step on it, and burst out of the clouds and mist to achieve a realistic effect." ”

Ye Lingyi thought thoughtfully: "So, if you want to catch the assassin, you have to investigate the troupe in Tokyo City?" ”

"You're not really trying to catch an assassin, are you?" Han Shili laughed, but it was sarcastic.

Ye Lingyi was puzzled: "What's wrong?" ”

"Catching assassins has their own official government guards, and besides, this explosive walnut is just an attractive little trick commonly used by the troupe, who doesn't know about it in the entire Western Dynasty? What's more, Tokyo City is so big, and there are countless theater troupes, how do you investigate? ”

Ye Lingyi didn't think about it, so she said: "Isn't it enough to check the troupe that can enter the palace?" ”

"Why are you so sure of the troupe? The royal family is not the gateway of ordinary people, how can they summon actors into the palace at will? The walnuts are widely circulated, how do you know that someone is not deliberately confusing the public? ”

This......

Ye Lingyi had to admit that Han Shili's words stumped her, and the only direct suspect she could think of was Empress Liang except for the troupe.

Today's concubine is overjoyed, and there is no one on duty outside the Huaen Palace, which is very strange in itself.

Imagine who has such a great ability to support the palace people?

Frowning and thinking for a moment, Ye Lingyi decided in his heart that it must be Empress Liang!

While thinking to himself, Han Shili gently stroked the wound on her face and said worriedly: "You are injured!" ”

At this mention, Ye Lingyi remembered, wiped the blood on the bruise indifferently, and said with a smile: "It's okay!" ”

Han Shili sighed, took her hand, and said softly, "It's better to leave this matter like this, right?" Originally, this assassin was obviously coming at me today, so I need to strengthen my vigilance in the future! I don't want to make a big deal out of it. ”

Han Shili's meaning was obvious, although Ye Lingyi was puzzled, she herself was unwilling to delve into it, and Ye Lingyi couldn't say anything more, so she nodded.

In the banquet hall, the eunuch shouted in his usual sharp voice: "The concubine is here ......."

The ministers who were toasting each other paused, and their eyes fell towards the door.

The gorgeous wedding robe dragged to the ground, and the woman's slender figure became slightly bloated hidden in the heavy wedding robe, although it was like this, it could not stop the amazing beauty like a blooming rose.

She slowly walked past the eyes of the ministers, calmly accepting the thoughtful eyes of others, when she passed by Han Taicheng, she was moved and gratified, when she passed by Taishi, she was satisfied and hidden ambition, when she passed by Cheng Ji, she was resentful to the bone, and more of them were the coveted eyes of men.

Han Shili knows all this, her heart is extremely repulsive, she even feels that these men are disgusting and dirty, but for the sake of the family's stable survival and her father's prosperity, she must learn to accept all this with a smile, although I don't know if her action of raising the corners of her mouth at the moment is a laugh.

Ye Lingyi has been silently following behind her, watching her accept everyone's attention, watching her become the focus of the audience, and watching her staggering figure tied up by gorgeous clothes, but for some reason her heart hurts, as if she was pricked by a needle, she couldn't calm down for a long time.

Is it really right for Han Shili to enter the palace?

Ye Lingyi couldn't help but have more questions in her heart, and looked up at the majestic man sitting on the dragon chair and the beautiful woman who had never looked at Han Shili halfway down and had an arrogant expression.

In an instant, Han Shili seemed to be walking towards not those two people, but two huge palace gates like mountains, behind which were not splendid and prosperous, but boundless dark abysses.

Ye Lingyi fell into deep thought, and her mood was so heavy that she couldn't speak.

Helian Che sat near Helian Zhu, his eyes fixed on the person behind Han Shili, and suddenly saw the scars on her face, his eyes tightened, and he couldn't sit still.

Fortunately, Wu Yuanzhou sat next to him, and coughed lightly in time to remind him.

At the same time, the majestic man on the high seat smiled politely, and when his eyes crossed Han Shili and fell behind her, his smile stiffened imperceptibly, and a trace of coldness burst out from the depths of his dark pupils.

"The concubine sees the emperor!"

Han Shili bowed his knees, led by him, and the maidservants behind him knelt on the ground.

The man on the high seat immediately laughed heartily, took the initiative to greet him, and helped Han Shili up: "Concubine Ai is exempt." ”

Han Shili raised his head and looked at the handsome man, and there was embarrassment spreading between his four eyes, obviously because they were not used to each other's new identity and new title.

But the good thing is that they all have one thing in common, which is that they know how to disguise.

The man's gaze swept from behind Han Shili like a dragonfly, and he glanced at it so quickly, his gaze still following the woman with a wounded cheek.

"Let's all be exempt!"

After Li Yuanlin finished speaking, Ye Lingyi and the rest of the maidservants serving in the hall got up.

"How is the concubine on the road? Tired of it, right? With a gentle expression, he held Han Shili's shoulders, his eyes were on hers, and others only felt that the two of them were "affectionate" between their eyes, just like a newlywed couple.

The voices of envy converged into a commotion.

At this time, a yin and yang strange voice interjected, which was particularly clear and harsh in the noise.

"Look at the new joy of Concubine Han and the emperor, such intimacy is really gratifying to the mourning family!" Although Liang Hou's words were good, the tone was sour.

Only then did the two of them come back to their senses.

Han Shili bowed to Liang Hou: "Meet the Queen Mother!" ”

"Alright, get up! After kneeling for a long time, the emperor is afraid that he will feel distressed. Liang Hou raised his chin, and the expression on his face seemed to be smiling.

Li Yuanlin immediately helped Han Shili up.

The ministers looked at the new concubine and the emperor, one was "shy and timid", and the other was "affectionate", and immediately knew that Han Guifei was in the emperor's heart, and they congratulated Han Taicheng one after another.

Han Zigao, who was in a happy mood, laughed even more when he heard this, and secretly glad that he had made the right bet, not only did he save the Han Mansion, but his daughter finally found a lover who didn't have to suffer from those spirits, and he was happy to raise his glass and drink a few more glasses.

The banquet was lively, Han Zigao couldn't help but salute Helian Note a few glasses of wine in order to express his gratitude, Helian Note is also regarded as a good flow, every time Han Zigao toasts, he symbolically touches the wine glass with his mouth, and in the end, Han Zigao drank red face, dizzy eyes, and staggered steps, Helian Note is still a good person, and even the hand holding the wine glass has not been tilted halfway.

When the drunken Han Zigao was carried down by the servants of the Taicheng Mansion, the banquet also entered the second half of the stage.

Helian Zhu held the wine glass in his hand, and his far-reaching gaze shifted from the dancing girl with graceful clothes to the courtiers who were busy socializing, and a hint of intriguing smile finally appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Taishi ......"

The accompanying guards called, Helian Note glanced behind him, and the guard immediately bowed his head and said something to Helian Note.

"What!" Helian Zhu's face changed when he heard the words, his eyes were cold, and his face was immediately pale, and he didn't think about it, so he immediately dropped the wine glass in his hand, got up and hurriedly walked to the center of the banquet hall to salute Li Yuanlin.

"Your Majesty, the old minister is too drunk and unwell, and I ask the emperor to allow the old minister to retire first!"

Li Yuanlin on the high seat was toasting with Han Shili, and suddenly heard Helian Zhu's request, raised his glass for a moment, looked at Helian Zhu, who was waving his hand and saluting under the seat, and pretended to be worried: "Taishi is not feeling well?" Come on, go to Tai Hospital and ask for a silver doctor! ”

"No need!" Helian immediately stopped the eunuch who was about to go to the doctor, pressed his body lower and said: "Thank you for the emperor's concern, the old minister is old, but he is tired from drinking, and he really doesn't have to worry about going through this experience in the hospital." ”

"Oh......"

Li Yuanlin suddenly seemed to have concerns for a while, and said: "In that case, I will send someone to escort the Taishi back!" ”

After that, he had to greet the guards again.

Helian Zhu refused again: "The garrison is a garrison to protect the emperor, and it must not be used on the old ministers, and the emperor's joy of accepting concubines today, if it is discouraged because of the old ministers, the old ministers will die and will not be able to atone for their sins!" Your Majesty, please rest assured, the old minister has brought his own people! ”

When he said this, Li Yuanlin looked at Helian Che and Wu Yuanzhou, who were silent, thought for a moment, and finally said: "Since this is the case, Taishi should be careful all the way!" ”

"Emperor Xie!"

Helian Zhu did not delay any longer, and immediately turned and left after saying thanks.

A group of figures hurriedly flashed in front of Helian Che's eyes, and someone had a beautiful sneer on his lips, picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and the jade chopstick-like index finger knocked on the delicate and clear wine glass, so it didn't look like he was complacent.

On the other side, a group of people strode towards the palace gate, and eagerly asked the guards as they walked: "Where did you find the people?" ”

"Hui Taishi, in the river where Cheng Ji's subordinates are stationed, when I found it, my limbs were cut off and they were already rotting! Taishi, this matter has not been notified to Cheng Ji, is it inappropriate for Taishi to go rashly? ”

"Bastard!" Helian Zhu suddenly stopped, turned his head and glared at the guards fiercely, "This Taishi is the Taishi of the Western Dynasty and the first assistant of the Imperial Palace, one person is above ten thousand people, what is wrong?" Why do I need to notify Cheng Ji? ”

Helian Zhu had an expression of wanting to eat people, and the guards were forced to remain silent because of obscenity.

The group walked fast in the palace and walked out of the palace gate after a while.
