As night fell, the sky was slowly shrouded in darkness, and only a little afterglow of the setting sun remained, still slowly burning.

Everyone in the palace took advantage of the free time after dinner to talk about the question of the thirteenth princess's future stay in the future, and few people would notice a thin little maid, she walked slowly through the corridor of the palace with hurried steps, and the wind came to the front of the queen's palace: "I have something to report to the queen, right now!" ”

The maid in charge of guarding the palace gate raised her eyes and looked at her, and said contemptuously: "It's up to you, I also want to see the queen mother, let's come back later, now the queen mother is dining with the prince." ”

The prince is also there, indicating that he may have to delay this matter for a while.

The maid was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, circling back and forth in front of the palace gate.

It wasn't until the crown prince finally finished eating with the queen and the queen summoned her that she stopped her steps, but by this time, it was already dark.

"What did you say, the Thirteenth Prince secretly left the palace?" The queen looked shocked and said, "When did it happen?" ”

The maid said with a look of grievance: "Just now, when the sun was about to set, the slave maid came a long time ago, and I wanted to report the matter directly to the queen, but at that time, His Royal Highness the prince was also in the palace, and the slave and maid were not easy to disturb, so I waited until now, and asked the mother to forgive me!" ”

The maid fell to her knees.

The queen stared at her with an extremely complicated expression.

Fengyi Zhu's departure from the palace means that she has escaped from her control, maybe she has left the capital now, and the capital has a curfew, and it may be too late for her to send someone to chase after her now.

Thinking that such a good opportunity to take revenge on Concubine Zhou was wasted by herself, the queen was annoyed, but there was no reason to blame, after all, this matter was indeed too negligent for her, and the only way at the moment was to place hope and seal the Yi Zhu is a fool, I hope that after she leaves the palace, she does not choose to leave the city immediately.

The queen summoned her confidant and instructed her: "You immediately order someone to go to General Lu's mansion to inquire about the whereabouts of the princess, and there are other people who are good with the princess, and also send someone to inquire quietly, and once there is news, immediately come back and report to the palace." ”

The henchman took the order and left, and came back after a short time to deliver the news: "The thirteenth princess lives in General Lu's mansion at this time, Niangniang, should we tell the emperor about this matter?" ”

"Tell the emperor what to do, now is the time for us to exert our strength," the queen smiled coldly, as if what she saw in front of her was not the palace layout, but the appearance of Zhou Guifei holding the emperor's leg and crying bitterly, she showed a grim face, and ordered, "You let a few guards with better skills immediately pretend to be assassins, and when the thirteenth princess leaves the Lu family and leaves the city tomorrow, go up and do it." ”

The queen paused, and reached out to gesture to her neck.

Even if she is a confidant for many years, she can't help but have white cheeks: "Niangniang, isn't it a little inappropriate to do this, the thirteenth princess, she is the emperor's favorite princess, even if she is unwilling to escape from the palace with her relatives, there is still the emperor's blood flowing on her body, what if she is assassinated halfway, what if the emperor blames her?" ”

"What I want is the emperor's blame." The queen narrowed her eyes slightly.

If the emperor blames it, the first one to bear the blame is Zhou Guifei, who is the one who let go of the thirteen princesses!

Then there is the person who assassinated the thirteen princesses, and then she only needs to push out the substitute ghosts, and it is impossible to bring the disaster to herself!

The queen had made up her mind, and when her henchmen saw that she was persuaded and did not move, she immediately ordered someone to go down to prepare.

The guards disguised as assassins waited outside the gate of Lu's house all night, and finally waited for Feng Yi Zhu in the early morning.

She was sent out by An Xiabai and Lu Li, and because they were worried, they even prepared a carriage in advance.

"Thank you." Feng Yi Zhu was wearing an ordinary dress, and there was no powder on his face, but his smile was far brighter than usual, "If there is a chance to meet again in the future, I will definitely repay you." ”

An Xiabai stopped his steps, hooked the corners of his lips and nodded with a smile: "I hope the princess has a safe journey." ”

Because of Fengyi Zhu's special identity, it is not easy for them to go out to send each other, at most they can only send it to the door of the house, and when she gets into the car, they will return to the swelling, and close the door tightly by the way.

Somehow, An Xiabai always had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart.

She turned her head to look at Lu Li, and asked him with doubts: "Do you think the thirteenth princess can be safe when she escapes this time?" ”

Lu Li shook his head with a complicated expression: "I can't say." ”

After all, the imperial court is already discussing the marriage date with the enemy country, and now the matter is half decided, and the bride suddenly disappeared, which will definitely cause turmoil in the government and the opposition, and maybe they will be implicated, so Lu Li can't guess the emperor's attitude, and he doesn't know if the follow-up Fengyi Zhu will be pursued by the officials.

Either way, they could only silently wish her peace in their hearts.

"I hope she's safe on the road." An Xia Bai prayed softly.

Through her prayers, Fengyi Zhu's road from Lu's house to the city gate was very smooth, and there was not even a person to check on the way, and she left the capital safely, but she was intercepted and killed outside the city.

The driver had never seen such a big scene, and he was trembling with fright.

The horses were also frightened, and pulled the carriage and galloped wildly, but the road became more and more remote.

Feng Yi Zhu was so frightened that he held the coachman's clothes tightly, and tears couldn't stop sliding from the corners of his eyes, urging him to hurry up, and hurry up.

In fact, at this time, if they turned around and rushed in the direction of the capital, they might still have a chance of survival, after all, Fengyi Zhu was the princess of the dynasty, and the assassins would not dare to assassinate her in front of the defenders, no matter how arrogant they were.

It's a pity that people are in a hurry and tend to approach the dead end, and the coachman is so frightened by the man in black that he keeps whipping his horse, trying to make it faster.

And the carriage could not be faster than an arrow.

Boom.

An arrow came through the wind and pierced the coachman's throat, killing him instantly.

It was the first time Feng Yi Zhu had seen this kind of bloody scene, and he was so frightened that he couldn't help curling up in the carriage, wishing that his body would turn into a ball so that the assassins could not see it.

At the moment, she really hopes that someone can save her.

Unfortunately, this place is remote, and no one will come at all, and no one will be able to save her.

"Don't kill me, as long as you can spare my life, I can give you whatever you want." She covered her face, frightened in the face of death.

The assassins were all palace guards sent by the queen, and they were used to seeing her arrogant and domineering appearance, and suddenly saw her panicked look, and felt very novel, and wanted to keep her alive for a while so that he could see enough, but what he didn't expect was that Feng Yi Zhu suddenly had the courage to die at the end, pushed to the closest guard to himself, and then took the short knife in his hand.

If you die sooner or later, you have to die, and instead of letting other people's dirty hands touch you, you should come yourself!

Feng Yi Zhu secretly gritted his teeth, and then slashed himself at the surprised gaze of the assassins.

Blood quickly spurted from her wounds, and her delicate body fell backwards.

It's ironic that the freedom you want is right in front of you, but it turns out that the end of the world is just around the corner.

The corners of Feng Yi Zhu's lips moved slightly, wanting to pull out a smile before she died, but she couldn't use any strength, she lay on the ground, and gradually felt the passage of her life in the dust and fallen leaves that she hated the most.

"Maybe it's because of resentment, the princess didn't close her eyes until the last moment." The leader of the guards who came to report the news recalled his appearance when he went to the scene to check, and couldn't help but sigh in a low voice.

The Emperor sat down in his chair with a sad expression and anger at the same time.

He raised his hand and swept everything on the desk to the ground with his wide sleeves, and roared angrily: "Immediately order someone to investigate, go and find out for me the person who let go of the thirteenth princess!" ”

The Son of Heaven was angry, and the hearts of the people were terrified.

The guards feared that the emperor's wrath would burn on them, and quickly found out what had happened.

The person who let go of the thirteen princesses was Zhou Guifei.

The emperor's eyes were about to turn red, and he rushed to Zhou Guifei's palace with a fierce attitude, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked: "I asked you to see Zhu'er because I hope you will persuade her to nod and agree to marry the prince, not to create an opportunity for you to let her go, who thinks in your heart?" ”

Zhou Guifei didn't know what was happening outside at this time, she was wearing a plain dress, and said with a sneer: "The emperor forgives the sin, isn't the concubine because of Zhu Er's consideration?" ”

The emperor directly raised his hand and slapped her: "It was because of your consideration that she lost her life!" ”

Zhou Guifei's face was pale, and she couldn't help trembling: "What are you talking about, Zhu'er, she is dead, how is this possible, when she separated from me, she was fine, and promised that she would come back to see my ...... in the future"

Looking at her surprised expression, the emperor suddenly felt a little unbearable, but the truth was so cruel, he hated the assassin who assassinated Feng Yi Zhu, and even more hated the person who let Feng Yi Zhu go in front of him: "If you didn't let her go, how could she be assassinated in the woods outside the city, if your mind was a little clearer and persuaded her to nod, she wouldn't die now!" ”

"Zhu'er is dead, my child is dead....." she widened her eyes and listened carefully to the emperor's description.

I heard that Feng Yi Zhu didn't close her eyes before she died, her heart hurt like a knife, and she hated to replace all the pain she had experienced before she died for herself.

How much pain did her daughter, the thirteenth princess who was pampered since she was a child, experience before she died?

The mother was grieving for her, and at the same time, the emperor's accusations continued, he said that if it wasn't for Zhou Guifei to let go of Fengyi Zhu, maybe people would still be alive and well.

"The culprit is obviously you!" Zhou Guifei raised her face and roared at the emperor.

The emperor was stunned in place, and before he could justify, he heard her say again: "If you didn't insist on marrying Zhu'er to some prince, how could she be desperate and want to leave the palace, in the final analysis, it's all your fault, you pay my daughter!" ”

Fengyi Zhu is her only daughter, and she is also the hope of the rest of her life, and now that she is dead, Zhou Guifei is also dead.

She didn't know where she got the courage to fight, so she stepped forward and tore the emperor's clothes, and while tearing, she kept muttering: "It's all your fault, you compensate my daughter!" ”
