Chapter 684 - A Narrow Road Encounter
In this world, there are not many people who can predict good fortune and bad fortune in advance. And there are even fewer people who can maintain a calm mind when danger comes.
No matter how calm and wise you are, when danger is approaching step by step, in order to protect yourself and those close to you, it is human nature to lose your proportions and panic, and even do anything recklessly, and there is nothing strange about it.
The prince of the country, the crown prince of the dynasty, although Liu Ju has such a prominent halo on his head, he is also an ordinary person. As long as there are people's seven emotions and six desires, it is inevitable that their hearts will be controlled by joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
Since he was publicly participated in the court by Dazong Zheng Liu Buzhi, his mood has been very low and dull these days. Especially when these things happened in the palace one after another, he was a little overwhelmed. And the emperor has always refused his request, and at the same time at a loss, the prince has a deep sense of frustration in his heart.
How did things come to this point all of a sudden? Let him be distressed and want to sort out his clues, but after all, it is difficult to understand. However, as the emperor's attitude towards him gradually became cold, there was some vague cognition, which made him understand a little more in his heart.
The initial cause, of course, was the dissatisfaction of the ambitious people in the palace and the court with his substitution for the emperor to govern the court. Presumably, those attacks against him were all caused by this. However, later, the emperor should have seen this opportunity, and wanted to use his hand to attack Yuan Zhao, whose potential forces had threatened the emperor's authority.
And the prince's indecision to this day finally made the emperor lose patience and feel even more disappointed in him. That's why they avoid it. Obviously, this is a serious warning.
However, who would have thought that now there was another incident of the embroidered guards searching the palace. Although it is not known what the emperor's intentions were, this is certainly not a good thing. The hundreds of people who have just been killed under the pretext of demagogy have not yet dried their blood...... In this case, if anyone is charged with such a crime again, I am afraid that there will be absolutely no good end.
The things that the embroidered guards took from the Jianzhang Palace, no one knows where they came from. However, in full view of everyone, the embroidered guards were searched from all over the palace, which cannot be denied. After the searchers had gone, all the maids, eunuchs, and the guards, all knelt on the ground, asking the queen for inquiry and punishment.
Empress Wei didn't reprate anyone, and she didn't ask a word. She had never believed that such dirty things could happen in her palace. Although the human heart is unpredictable, she knows everything about these people. After many years of wind and rain, she carefully selected and stayed, all of whom were pure and good-natured.
The empress herself went to see the emperor, but there was no reply for a long time. Liu Ju, the crown prince who patiently appeased Yunxi's little sister, finally couldn't bear the anxiety in his heart, and he went straight to the emperor's residence to find out.
When he turned the palace wall and looked at the edge of Kunming Lake, his footsteps stopped suddenly. In the bitter wind of the last autumn, I saw a queen in a thin palace dress kneeling by the lake, and I don't know how long I have been there. The road leading to the Yanbo Hall in the center of the lake was empty, and the fallen leaves were swept away by the wind, and there was no trace. As unpredictable, there was no news from the temple.
The crown prince Liu Ju grabbed the willow tree on the shore tightly with his hand, his nails had been picked and bleeding, and he didn't feel any pain. Looking at the figure kneeling there, there is no longer the grace and beauty that I once remembered, all of them, just the helplessness and sadness of humiliation and pleading for mercy in order to save ...... children.
After a long time, the prince, who was desperately suppressing the emotions in his heart, wiped away his tears with his sleeve, and then walked over calmly, reaching out to help the queen mother, who had exhausted her youth for their brother and sister.
"Let's go! Queen mother...... Let's go back. ”
"Ju'er, ...... you?"
"We have a clear conscience, so why fear ghosts and gods! Mother, your Ju'er has grown up, and from now on, I don't want you to be for us anymore...... Go beg anyone! ”
The last few words came out of his mouth with a palpable hint of hatred. At this moment, he suddenly decided a lot of things. Those hesitations are gone!
When Empress Wei wanted to say something more, the young dynasty heir did not say anything, he directly held the arm of the queen mother and walked back and forth. The queen's expression moved, and she finally obeyed her son. In the time of the deep palace, I suddenly realized that Ju'er's stature had grown so tall, it had exceeded the top of her head, and she no longer needed her shelter .......
The crown prince was not able to enter the Jianzhang Palace again. Because, the subordinate officials of the East Palace ran over with a panicked face and told him that Bowangyuan was tightly sealed and a thorough search was underway!
"Ju'er! …… Remember, don't act impulsively......! ”
The queen standing on the steps at the entrance of the palace looked at the back of the prince who was hurrying away, and anxiously shouted loudly. The wind swept over the long steps, and the sky was full of smoke and dust, and I didn't know if he heard .......
The embroidered guards are very fast. When the crown prince Liu Ju rushed back to his palace under the protection of his personal entourage, they had already completed the search.
A large number of Yulin troops were responsible for blocking the periphery, and Han Yue, the Marquis of Andao, who was draped all over his body, stood at the gate of the palace with his sword in his hand. He looked at His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who came from a distance with a sinking face, and couldn't help but show a sneer on his face.
Since ancient times, wealth must seek danger! Although he, Han Yue, has been made a marquis, it is far from enough for people who desire great power. Now that there is such a great opportunity in front of us, how can we miss it? Whether it is public or private, he has to grasp it firmly!
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what do you want?"
The Yulin army that blocked the palace gate was not instructed by the general, and no one dared to retreat without permission, even if it was the prince of the Han Dynasty and the person who was in charge of the country, it would not work.
"Get out of the way! This is my palace, I want to go home, do I still need your approval? Hum! ”
Seeing Han Yue standing on the steps blocking the way, the prince snorted coldly, his face was as cold as ice.
Unexpectedly, the other party didn't move. Han Yue, who was dressed in armor, was like a small mountain, pressing heavily in front of the prince.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, please stay a little longer. At the behest of His Majesty, the embroidered guards are searching inside...... The stakes are so high that no one can get in the way! ”
Almost for no reason, the anger in the prince's heart suddenly couldn't be controlled. He stepped forward directly, stepped on the steps, and was about to enter through the palace gate. However, it was dark in front of him, and the bright armor was in front of him, and within a few moments, the hilt of the sword held by the big hands almost came out of the sheath.
"Prince, don't embarrass those of us who act according to orders!"
Han Yue accentuated her accent, and she bit word by word clearly. Now that he had decided to follow behind that huge force to gain wealth, finding an opportunity to attack the prestige of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was something he was happy to do now.
The crown prince Liu Ju didn't expect this guy to be so bold and rude at the gate of his palace. He was caught off guard and almost bumped into the other party. After closing his feet in time, he can't help but look a little embarrassed. Furious even more in his heart, he turned his head and shouted behind him.
"Xiao Lie! I'm going in...... Help me! ”
Before the words fell, there was a clear sound, the Xuandao was unsheathed, and the light appeared! The Goryeo boy, who had already looked at it coldly for a long time, was like electricity, with endless killing intent, and the sharp edge went straight to the choked throat of the armored general!
Han Yue was taken aback. He definitely didn't expect that someone in the palace would dare to make a move against Yulin Jun, and as soon as he made a move, it would be a killing move. Obviously, this is to take your own life with a knife!
Speaking of which, although a large part of the title of the Marquis of Antao relied on the remnants of his father, he himself had also charged outside the fortress and made contributions. The bow horse is skillful, and the knife is sharp. Ordinary masters can't get close to him at all.
However, what he met today was not an ordinary master. This Goryeo boy, with a hard work, studied hard under the Yuanzhao Sect, coupled with the exquisite knife techniques he learned from the "Xuandao God" before, under the integration of the mastery, he was already the world's top swordsman. When encountering such a character, Han Yue could only blame himself for being unlucky.
Almost didn't even have a chance to pull out the sword, the knife had already arrived in front of him, and feeling the threat of death, Han Yue's soul was in danger. There was no time to think about it at all, the instinct to survive made him exert extraordinary, and his tower-like body leaned back directly, dodging the blade, and fell to the ground with a "bang", shaking that even the palace seemed to shake. A mouthful of old blood almost spurted out.
Before the unlucky guy could get up, the graceful figure withdrew its knife momentum, turned and fell in mid-air, and then stepped heavily on Han Yue's chest. Although he was protected by a mirror, he felt as if he had been hit by a huge boulder, and the tumbling qi and blood could no longer bear it, gushing out of his mouth, staining his armor red.
"Your Highness told you to get out of the way! Do you have no ears or eyes? ! ”
Condescendingly looking down at Park Yongyeol, the general of the Yulin Army with a painful face, casually kicked, like kicking a pile of rags, An Daohou Han Yue rolled to the bottom of the steps, and several henchmen hurriedly helped him up, he gasped and gritted his teeth.
"You, you...... Wait! Sooner or later, one day...... I, Han Yue, want to get this breath back......! ”
didn't say a few words, and in shame, he spurted out a few more mouthfuls of blood, obviously not lightly injured.
The figure of the white-clothed Xuandao stood proudly, and although there was tension around him, he didn't care. The contemptuous eyes glanced over, and they were shocked by his momentum, and all the Yulin Army did not dare to move. Then, the young man nodded to the crown prince Liu Ju.
"Your Highness, you can go in now."
The retinue of the East Palace swarmed in with the crown prince. looked up head-on, but was encountering Jiang Chong, the commander of the embroidered guard, leading his subordinates, and searched out of the hall with a fierce momentum.
The road is narrow, and the narrow road meets. This may be the arrangement of fate!
