7. Nangong Ming: Flesh and bones

The awakened Nangong Ming heard the cry of a baby in his ears, and when he looked up again, the pale Yu Shu Jinyao was sitting upright, looking softly at the two babies in the bassinet in front of him.

The door was kicked open, and Li Xi, who was dressed in a Xuanjin dragon robe, came in drunk and walked straight to Jin Yao. This time he had a sheathed sword tied around his waist.

Jing Yao looked up at him with an indifferent gaze.

Li Xi only glanced down at the baby, and then turned to look at her, but there was anger in his eyes. He suddenly stretched out his hand and tightly pinched Jinyao's slender neck. Jin Yao still looked at him indifferently, and her face gradually became painful because of suffocation.

"Don't hurt her!" Seeing all this, Nangong Ming looked sad and couldn't help but shout. But no one could hear him.

Li Xi squatted down and slowly let go of his hand, Jin Yao's red eyes were crystal clear, dripping with tears.

He pressed her under him violently, and looked down at Jing Yao with an indignant face, but his eyes were also shining, "Today's 100-day banquet, the clan relatives and hundreds of officials congratulate me, and I am desolate." I endured this sadness, I never touched you, let you give birth to these children, I treat you sincerely, but you, why can't you like me at all!?" The drunken Li Xi shouted, tears falling onto Jing Yao's face.

Jin Yao also shed tears, and let Li Xi shout on her body, don't turn your head and don't look at him again.

Li Xi screamed in grief, leaned down fiercely and kissed Jing Yao's neck, kneading her body vigorously with both hands.

A pair of babies cried hard, and Jing Yao under Li Xi remained motionless.

The excited Li Xi suddenly gasped and stopped, slowly let go of Jing Yao, and sat down beside her with a lost face.

Jin Yao, who was in tears, also sat up slowly, gently combed her somewhat messy clothes and sideburns, and turned her head to take care of the two babies.

The two were silent. The baby's crying stopped, but at this moment there was a scream from the maid outside the door, and after the sound of sharp blades piercing into flesh, three masked swordsmen had broken through the door.

When Jing Yao screamed, Li Xi stood up, pulled out his long sword to block Jin Yao behind him, and asked, "Who sent you?"

The swordsmen ignored it and did not hesitate to raise their swords and fly towards them in unison.

"Protect the Prince!" At the same time, an order was shouted from outside the house, and several figures also flew in, and after the piercing sword parry, the assassin was stopped by another group of plainclothes guards.

Nangong Ming watched coldly in the corner.

Li Xi held his sword and hurriedly blocked in front of Jing Yao's mother and son, staring at each other with round eyes.

The crowd fought in the house, but the escort had the upper hand, and the Assassin could not approach for a moment.

But at this moment, five or six more Xuanyi people broke into the house, looked at the fighting people with fierce eyes, and then looked at Li Xi's position, and slaughtered them.

Several guards came to the rescue, but the number was already outnumbered, and it was difficult to resist in the chaotic scene.

Someone raised a knife to slash head-on, Li Xi, who was dying, hurriedly raised his sword to block, and he was hit backwards with a "bell", and desperately held the sword with both hands to block it, "bell, bell", fire burst out between the blades, and he was difficult to parry. Jin Yao behind him was tightly guarding the bassinet at the moment.

The guards hurriedly came up and resisted the assassin, Li Xi was able to catch his breath, he looked at the chaotic situation in front of him, and his angry expression gradually replaced Shicai's panic, "Ah!" he shouted and stepped up to kill the assassin.

In this gap, Nangong Ming saw that someone was aiming at Jin Yao's mother and son, and immediately raised his sword and rushed towards them.

"Bastard, no, tell you not to hurt her!" Nangong Ming cried out angrily, but it was too late, the assassin's sword had already flown towards Jin Yao, only to see Jin Yao facing the sharp blade and blocking it in front of the bassinet with her hands outstretched.

"Bastard!

"Poof!" The white blade splashed blood, and with Jin Yao's exclamation, Li Xi, who was facing away from Jin Yao, blocked the sword with his body, and the long sword stabbed into his chest. Li Xi actually raised his hand to hold the blade of the sword, and roared angrily and stabbed the sword in his hand into the opponent's body.

The assassin fell to the ground, Li Xi pulled out the sword on his body, blood gushed out, he still stood in front of Jin Yao, and shouted hard: "Huang Ji!

Outside the house, there was another sound of escorts. "Whoosh!" Suddenly, feathered arrows flew into the crowd, and some people fell to the ground screaming, and then the arrows flew in, and in a few moments, both the assassins and the guards were hit by arrows, and fell in a pool of blood.

Guards dressed in armor poured into the house and surrounded Li Xi and Jin Yao, and the Xuan robes squeezed in in panic.

"Oops, hey, he deserves death!" he threw himself on his knees and shouted, "I didn't expect two groups of assassins to come, and I can't protect them effectively!"

At this moment, Li Xi, who was in the middle of the sword, had fallen into Jin Yao's soft arms, he was dying and looked at Jing Yao in front of him, who might be crying for him, and the corners of his mouth actually pulled a smile and whispered: "Maybe I haven't done enough, but if I can exchange my life for a trace of your sincerity, I am willing to ...... If it wasn't enough, I would have known who was going to avenge you, but if I was for you, I wouldn't pursue him, and I wouldn't make you sad......"

Nangong Ming suddenly felt dizzy. Yes, he hated the royal family, and he couldn't bear the Yu Shu clan and Li Xi to dominate his Jing Yao. He hid himself deeply, he wanted revenge, and he wanted Li Xi to die first, but he never thought that it would be such a scene, the woman he wanted to kill loved him no less than his, and even the baby saved by this person was his blood. He originally only thought that these two children were born to Jing Yao, and he would not kill them for Jing Yao's sake, but this is their flesh and blood, and their feelings have a common bloodline!

However, it was their former feelings. From Jin Yao's eyes looking at Li Xi, he actually saw some soft light that only he could see. He was so agitated and grieved that what he saw and what he heard in his ears became blurred......

The sunlight sprinkled in front of Nangong Ming again, and the sound of the child's laughter came from his ears, and Nangong Ming looked back at the door and saw the slender back of Jin Yao in a gorgeous costume.

She stood there fixedly, Nangong Ming turned around and stepped out of the door and walked to her side. He followed her gaze and saw that under the lush sycamore in the circle, Li Xi, who was wearing a dark dragon robe, raised the immature girl with both hands, and held her in a fast circle in the sun, together with the little boy running and jumping in front of him, the three of them were full of smiles, and the hearty laughter jumped to every corner with the sun.

"My emperor really loves the little prince and the little princess. The voices of the maids came from beside Jin Yao.

"Not only to the little prince and the little princess, but also to the queen, I am always worried about it, and it has been like a day for several years. Although she loves it, but also because of the queen's thoughts, the queen thinks that this place is good, like Chunyue's hometown, so the queen has been living here, but she is not troublesome at all, no matter how busy she is, she comes here every day to see her loved one. ”

Jin Yao only watched quietly and did not make a sound. Nangong Ming didn't dare to look sideways at Jin Yao within a few feet, he was afraid that he would not want to see her eyes that were as red as the warm sun.

The more he was so frightened, the more the sunlight, trees, and people in front of him became blurred light and shadow, and the sound in his ears that had been clear became as if it came from afar.

"Ahh

In front of him, stood the gentle Jinyao.

"He betrayed me! Jing Yao, why, I have always been sincere to others, but I can only wander in the dark? First the queen mother, then you, and my own brother, I love him with all my heart in a bleak situation, but no one wants to treat me sincerely, but only spurn me, ignore me, and betray me! Why is this, Jin Yao? I want to kill him, kill him...... Jinyao, I'm so miserable, I really can't stand it anymore, hatred has been growing in my heart for a long time, I will eventually be swallowed up, and I will never recover!" Li Xi cried in despair, like an ignorant child.

Jin Yao approached him, stretched out her hands, hugged him, and took his trembling body into her arms, gently soothing him with her hands on his head like a child.

Tears glistened on her blurred cheeks, and she said in an extremely tolerant and gentle tone: "You really love people, and the people you love can feel it, and I can't bear you to sink into the darkness......"

Li Xi cried even more sadly, he hugged Jin Yao tightly, looked up at her and cried, "What should I do, what should I do?"

Jin Yao didn't answer him, just rubbed his cheek with her hand, slowly leaned down, and kissed him......

Nangong Ming's eyes didn't know if it was because of tears, and finally completely turned into a virtual shadow, and in a moment, he opened his eyes, tears slid down his face, and in front of him was a desolate ruin and a mysterious man sitting indifferently.

"Lord Nangong doesn't want to look at it anymore. Xuanshu said.

Nangong Ming didn't speak sluggishly, and only nodded in a very small amplitude.

Then Xuanshu completed Nangong's entrustment, and Xuanshu took his leave. After Xuanshu finished speaking, he got up and walked away, and then the sound of horses' hooves faded away.

Only Nangong Ming was left to sit alone in the wilderness, motionless for a long time, like a statue frozen in time.

After a long time, he remembered the girl he bumped into outside Chunyue's tent that day, he was so familiar with her posture and face, and he remembered Li Yu's cold and stubborn eyes in front of him, and he always felt a little familiar at that time...... He rose to his feet, turned and hurried away.
