Chapter 62: Vague News
Bai Xiaoqi made a few leaps and came to Jingyan Palace. At this time, the lights in Zhang Guifei's bedroom had been extinguished, and Bai Xiaoqi secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, fortunately it was over!
Zhang Guifei did such an unsightly thing, so naturally she would not leave too many maids and eunuchs by her side, which also gave Bai Xiaoqi the opportunity to sneak in.
stunned the only personal servant girl who stayed outside the door, Bai Xiaoqi sneaked into the house, looking at the two people who were sleeping in their arms on the bed, the corners of Bai Xiaoqi's mouth outlined a sneer.
Flashed forward, fixed the figure of the concubine and Chang Hai, and then lit all the candles in the house!
The room suddenly lit up, and the two people on the bed noticed the abnormality, Chang Hai opened his eyes in horror and wanted to get up, but found that he couldn't move at all.
At the same time, Zhang Guifei, who realized that she couldn't move, shouted: "Come on, catch the assassin, catch the assassin!" ”
On the other hand, Chang Hai quickly calmed down, looked at Bai Xiaoqi coldly and asked angrily, "Who are you?" ”
Bai Xiaoqi looked at them and didn't answer, only a trace of mockery flashed in the smart eyes that were only exposed, picked up a Xuanguang mirror and looked at the two people on the bed, and then said to Mu Yunzhen on the other side of the mirror in a very old and indistinguishable voice: "Night River King, have you seen it?" ”
On the other side of the mirror, Mu Yunzhen had already been smoked by the seven orifices of the scene in front of him, and his red eyes could erupt into fire at any time!
The current Mu Yun couldn't immediately rush to Jingyan Palace and break the pair of dog men and women into pieces! However, although he is not from the Immortal Sect, he also knows that the origin of the person who can use the Xuanguang Mirror is definitely not simple. Now he doesn't even know what this person's intentions are, if he rushes forward, I'm afraid there will be no return! can only secretly gather a large number of guards to guard in the Shouyang Palace.
After a long time, Mu Yunzhen responded gloomily: "What do you want? ”
"I don't want to do anything, your dog named Chang Hai, but he owes me a lot of lives, I came to him today to collect debts, I will take him away, I don't care about your family affairs!" Bai Xiaoqi sneered and said his purpose.
Mu Yunzhen breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, it didn't seem that he was coming for himself, but there was also a fire in his heart, his palace was so free for people to break in at will, come and go freely, if this was spread out, how could he save face?
"Is my Night River Palace a place where you can come and go?" Mu Yunzhen didn't buy it, and snorted coldly.
"It's okay if you don't let me go, I have companions, if I can't go back today, your palace will not be peaceful in the future!" Bai Xiaoqi bargained with Mu Yunzhen without any confusion.
"You're threatening me?" Mu Yunzhen forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and asked in a deep voice.
"What about threatening you, do you go to the Xianmen Baijia to come and help you? In addition to praying for blessings, Xianmen is not allowed to meddle in the affairs of the royal family, violators, are all public enemies of the same way, do you think there is a fairy gate that will brave the world's disapproval, come here to help you openly? Bai Xiaoqi sneered and blocked all the back roads of Mu Yunzhen.
She had already calculated today's matter, and she listened to the palace maids in the palace during the day that those who were ready to enter the palace to pray for the queen mother's blessing did not enter the palace, but because some things were delayed, they arrived in Liuyun City in the evening, and it is estimated that they will enter the palace early tomorrow morning.
Therefore, Bai Xiaoqi chose to do it tonight, but it was all too smooth, which made Bai Xiaoqi feel a little unreal, and he was secretly vigilant in his heart.
And Mu Yunzhen was red and white by what she said, and he couldn't refute it for a while, and after a long time, Mu Yunzhen gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, I promise you, I can take him away!" ”
"Thank you very much!" Bai Xiaoqi grabbed Chang Hai on the bed, and disappeared into the house in a flash.
Mu Yunzhen said to his guards: "Go, go to Jingyan Palace, bring the Zhang family over for me!" In addition, send some people to search the palace carefully, and if they encounter the thief, they will be killed! ”
When the middle guards heard this, they immediately took action, some of them went out to find Bai Xiaoqi and Chang Hai, some of them continued to stay in Shouyang Palace, and three or five people went to Jingyan Palace to arrest the concubine Zhang.
Bai Xiaoqi took Chang Hai and came to a no-man's corner at the edge of the palace in a few jumps.
Bai Xiaoqi threw Chang Hai on the ground heavily, and then said to him coldly: "Time is not much, you'd better give me a perfect answer, otherwise I want you to live rather than die!" ”
Chang Hai has been thinking about who the man in black in front of him is from the beginning to the present, but unfortunately there are not a hundred or a thousand people he has harmed in his life, how can he figure out who is looking for revenge for himself?
At this time, he was lying on the ground, knowing that he was dying in advance and retreat, so he no longer struggled, looked at Bai Xiaoqi calmly and said: "Even if it is death, you let me be a ghost, who are you?" ”
"It doesn't matter who I am, you just have to answer my questions!" Bai Xiaoqi didn't want to answer his question, and instead asked, "Do you remember who are the girls who were born in the Xuanyuan clan fourteen years ago?" ”
"You are a descendant of the Xuanyuan family? No, it's impossible, the Xuanyuan clan has been wiped out a long time ago, you can't have the surname Xuanyuan, who are you? A trace of horror flashed in Chang Hai's eyes, and he said in disbelief.
"Answer me!" Bai Xiaoqi took out a dagger and stabbed Chang Hai in the leg fiercely, warning him.
"I, I said......" Chang Hai was in pain, snorted, endured the pain, gritted his teeth and said: "The Xuanyuan clan is prosperous, there are as many as 5,000 people in the whole clan, fourteen years ago, that is, the year of the Immortal and Demon War, a total of one hundred and thirty-one collateral children were born, including seventy-three boys and fifty-eight girls, all of whom died in that battle, and none of them were spared, and the corpses were also personally examined by me." ”
"Are you sure you didn't miss anything?" Bai Xiaoqi's heart sank, but he still asked a little unwillingly.
"There is no omission, Mu Yunzhen and the hundred families of Xianmen are afraid of the retaliation of Xuanyuan's descendants, so every corpse has been carefully checked, the Xuanyuan clan has no living mouth, except for the current King Yong'an, everyone else is dead!" The pain in his leg made Chang Hai gather a layer of sweat the size of a bean on his forehead.
"Then have you ever heard the word 'Yuluo'?" Bai Xiaoqi suddenly thought of the words engraved on the mirror on his body.
"Yuluo, Yuluo......" Chang Hai frowned and tried to recall, but he didn't have any impression, shook his head and said, "I haven't heard of it!" I'm not a core figure in the Vermilion Bird Pavilion, I don't know some of the news inside the villa, all the people of the Xuanyuan clan in the Vermilion Bird Mountain are on the family tree, and we also checked the corpse through the images on the family tree back then, and I haven't seen a child named Yuluo, so I haven't heard of anything else related to Yuluo. ”
"Is it possible that there is a mistake in the genealogy?" The more Bai Xiaoqi listened, the cooler his heart became, but he was still unwilling to give up any hope.
"As far as I know, the Xuanyuan clan attaches great importance to the matter of entering the family tree, but whenever a child is born, the name will be written on it, and there will be no omission!" Chang Hai said with great certainty.
Bai Xiaoqi was very depressed when he heard this, he didn't even have a family tree, could it be that he was an illegitimate child and was not recognized by the clan, so he didn't even have the qualifications to enter the family tree?
Now it seems that the road to find his relatives is even more slim, the Xuanyuan family is wiped out, does he have no relatives alive?
All hope came to naught, and the road to finding relatives returned to the original point at this moment, Bai Xiaoqi glanced at Chang Hai who was lying on the ground, and said coldly: "Since you don't know anything, then there is no value in living!" Today, I will use your blood to comfort the heavenly spirits of all the people of my Xuanyuan clan! ”
As he spoke, Bai Xiaoqi pulled out the dagger inserted in Chang Hai's leg and stabbed it into Chang Hai's heart fiercely, and that's how he ended.
Then Bai Xiaoqi got up and left here without looking back.
At this time, the palace was already in chaos, and everywhere was brightly lit, and a group of guards were searching everywhere for the whereabouts of the "assassin".
Bai Xiaoqi found a corner, changed into his clothes, and then went back to his residence.
Xiao Qi is living with two male musicians, the things in the palace have not alarmed everyone in Yuefu, these two "roommates" of their own are sleeping soundly, Xiao Qi saw this and withdrew his illusion technique, and also lay down in the quilt in his middle coat, pretending to sleep.
After a while, the guards in charge of the search came here, and when they heard the door slam, there were three guards and guards who walked in with lanterns, and couldn't help but lift Bai Xiaoqi and his two "roommates" up from the bed.
Xiao Qi pretended to be weak and looked at the guards with a frightened expression.
The guards gathered them all in the courtyard, examined them one by one, and asked if anyone had found anything unusual.
At this moment, a guard walked over, looked at Bai Xiaoqi's two roommates and asked, "Did you find anything unusual tonight?" ”
The two men shook their heads blankly, indicating that they didn't know.
The guard continued to ask, "Did anyone in your house go out and come back?" ”
"Nope." The musician shook his head in affirmation.
The guard didn't say anything when he heard this, went into the house and rummaged for a while, but found nothing wrong, so he left with someone.
Everyone in the courtyard looked at each other, not knowing what had happened, and when they saw that the guards were gone, they went back to their rooms with questions full of questions.
Bai Xiaoqi also went back to the room, lying on the bed with a lot of thoughts, and couldn't sleep at all.
At this time, in Shouyang Palace, Mu Yunzhen had a cold face and glared angrily at Concubine Zhang who was kneeling on the ground.
"Isn't the favor I have given you enough?"
Zhang Guifei no longer had the grace and luxury of the past at this time, her hair was scattered when she knelt there, her clothes were disheveled, and her face was covered with dust mixed with tears, leaving criss-crossing marks on her face.
Zhang Guifei's body trembled, and she looked at Mu Yunzhen with a face full of grievances and said, "The emperor is angry, the concubine has been wronged!" ”
"Hmph, wronged? Tell me who is trying to blame you? Mu Yun laughed angrily, looking at Zhang Guifei on the ground and sneering.
"Someone must have poisoned the concubine. The emperor's favor to his concubines has never waned, how could the concubines betray the emperor? Zhang Guifei knelt on the ground and cried and explained.
"Hmph, do you still know about my favor for you?" Mu Yunzhen was furious at this time, where could he listen to Zhang Guifei's explanation, and snorted coldly: "Come on, put the Zhang family into the cold palace for me, and never get out!" ”
