Chapter 237: Retreat to Life
Chu Shenxia saw that they were really waiting at the gate of the East Palace, he frowned but was helpless, so he had to drop a sentence and said: "If the two adults like to wait, then wait, I still have something to do, so I won't accompany the two adults." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
Chen Zhiming didn't mean to stop him, and shouted at his back: "Don't be delusional about reporting the news, the outside of the East Palace is full of my manpower." ”
Chu Shenxia glanced back at him, smiled faintly, did not answer, turned his head to Lu Zhi on the side and said, "Find a way to get out, no matter what the method, even if it is to kill it, you must prevent the side concubine from returning to the palace." ”
"I see." Lu Zhi responded briefly, dodged to the wall on the side, and jumped out of the wall with a light jump.
Chu Shenxia waited in place for a while, only to hear an extremely small sound from outside the wall, and then returned to calm, and then continued to walk with confidence.
It's just that what he didn't expect was that an hour later, Liu Yan and Ruoyu actually appeared at the gate of the main palace, Qibai's eyes were red, and he took the lead on the spot.
Ruoyu and Liu Yan resisted, and the scene was very chaotic, Chu Shenxia had no choice but to cross in the middle and persuade the two parties.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Chu Shenxia asked in the air, "Why are you back?" Didn't Lu Zhi go to you and His Highness? Make sure you don't go back to the palace. ”
"I didn't see Lu Zhi." As soon as Ruoyu finished saying this, Qibai on the side was about to pounce on him with a knife, but fortunately he was stopped by Chen Zhiming.
"General Qi...... General Kai! We are here today to arrest, not to kill. Chen Zhiming raised his hand as he spoke, and someone immediately came forward carrying a bunch of things.
Liu Yan didn't think about Ruoyu's murder back then, and said confidently: "You are making a big fuss in front of my East Palace today, and you still want to slander my side concubine, aren't you afraid that your father will know?" ”
"This woman killed my son, I don't care what kind of princess she is, I will definitely want her to kill someone to pay for her life." Qibai snorted and looked at Ruoyu and the others coldly.
Ruoyu's gaze swept among the piles of things on the ground, his eyebrows furrowed, and he said in a low voice: "You are General Zhennan?" ”
"Do you remember my son? I'm telling you. In addition to physical evidence, I also have human witnesses, three people who saw you arguing with my son on the street that day, and two people who saw you destroy my son's body. These five people are here right now, with these things. is the best evidence that you killed my son. Qibai looked at Ruoyu, like a tiger looking at the young eagle, and couldn't help but want to start with resentment.
Liu Yan immediately stepped forward to defend her: "Just these rusty and rotten broken knives? And what you call witnesses? If you want, I can pay to help you find dozens or even hundreds of IDs. ”
"Your Highness, just wait for the opening of the hall to speak. In short, we must take people away today. Chen Zhiming cut the railway, and at the same time waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him waved the big knives in their hands in response.
Liu Yan wanted to say something, but Ruoyu suddenly grabbed him in front of him and said, "It's okay, they can't help me, Your Highness doesn't have to worry." ”
Saying that, Ruoyu took two steps forward, but was violently dragged back by Liu Yan, and said angrily: "You are my side concubine, you want me to watch you being taken away by them?" Don't I, Liu Yan, even have the courage to protect my woman? If it is passed out. How else can I be a person? ”
"Your Highness means not to let people go?" Qi Bai suddenly asked in a strange tone.
Liu Yan didn't look at him, and said coldly: "Don't let it go!" ”
As soon as the words fell, Qi Bai's hand waved, and the soldiers behind him rushed up, and Chu Shenxia hurriedly reminded: "General Qi!" Do you know the consequences of doing this? ”
"The old man has lived to this age, and he has eaten more salt than you have eaten, so I don't need you to remind me." Qibai didn't listen to Chu Shenxia at all, and insisted on ordering his subordinates to come forward and attack.
The city gate was not manpowered, far inferior to the people Chen Zhiming and Qi Bai had already prepared to bring, Chu Shenxia glanced at Ruoyu and Liu Yan, who were surrounded by dozens of people. Gritted his teeth and scratched the people on the side: "Go and find the king." ”
The man answered, and hurried out, but after walking less than two steps, he was slashed to death. Chu Shenxia saw Chen Zhiming and cast a very proud gaze on himself. Raising his foot, he kicked up a knife, and the knife wind flew straight towards Chen Zhiming's head.
He flashed short, and although he avoided it, he still had palpitations, and said as he retreated: "Your Highness, don't do anything in vain." What does the side concubine have to do with His Royal Highness when she commits a murder? It is better to hand over the side concubine as soon as possible, so as not to worsen this matter. ”
Although Liu Yan didn't listen to his words, Ruoyu was thoughtful, blocked the sword in front of Liu Yan, and said in a deep voice: "I helped His Highness retreat into the palace, this incident was caused by me, so naturally there is no reason to affect His Highness." ”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Yan glanced at Ruoyu with some dissatisfaction, grabbed her hand and switched positions with her, played with his sword like a cloud, and used huge strength to tear out a hole in the crowd in front of him.
Before Ruoyu could react, he was pushed out of the crowd by Liu Yan, and then what he remembered in his ear was the sentence he had just said, "You go quickly, the farther you go, the better, their purpose is not me." ”
Ruoyu hesitated, it was this hesitation that those soldiers had already rushed to her, and Chu Shenxia hurriedly rushed out of the crowd to contain those people when she saw this.
"Let's go!"
Hearing Liu Yan's heart-rending shout, Ruoyu still ran away ruthlessly, and when Qi Bai saw Ruoyu fleeing, he could still take care of others, so he immediately chased Ruoyu with his soldiers.
Chen Zhiming's footsteps moved, but he still didn't catch up, glanced at the embarrassed scene in front of the East Palace, and said helplessly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can't blame me for today's events, it is General Qi who is eager for revenge and has lost his mind." ”
"Peng" sounded, and before Chen Zhiming could react, Liu Yan's fist had already smashed into his face, knocking him to the ground, and he didn't forget to kick it, "Do you really think that I have lost the favor of my father, and the East Palace is powerless to fight back, can even a person like you come and step on it?" ”
As he spoke, Chu Shenxia had already come out of the main palace gate, and he commanded those government soldiers to catch up with Qibai's people, disrupting their sight and attention.
At this time, a man with a bloody face walked towards Liu Yan, he couldn't stand up and walk at all, and every step he took with his back bent on his back, a trail of blood dragged out from his feet.
Liu Yan looked at the long bloodstain behind him, his heart was shocked, and he looked at him with bated breath, and Chu Shenxia beside him also gasped and said, "Lu Zhi? ”
After being reminded by Chu Shenxia, Liu Yan suddenly realized, hurriedly rushed up to catch his body that was about to fall, and said bitterly: "What's wrong with you?" ”
Lu Zhi raised his head with difficulty, only a pair of flexible eyes in the blood on his face turned, and he whined a few times in his throat, but he couldn't make any sound.
Only then did Liu Yan see that there was a wound in his throat, and the wound was very deep, almost penetrating his entire neck. Chu Shenxia obviously also discovered this, and immediately frowned, very confused.
Even Chen Zhiming, who fell to the ground, was stunned, and when he saw Chu Shenxia casting his gaze at him, he hurriedly cleared his eyes and said, "It's none of my business, I don't know at all." ”
Lu Zhi, who was supported by Liu Yan, suddenly insisted on squatting down, Liu Yan had to squat down slowly following his movements, only to see him write on the ground with his hand: "Kill me......"
He only wrote two words, but he used all his strength, he trembled, and suddenly blood spurted from his mouth, Liu Yan was shocked and said: "Quick!" Go find Xu Xilai and ask him to come here immediately. ”
Lu Zhi grabbed Liu Yan's hand and slowly untied his robe, Liu Yan saw that he also had a wound on his chest, deeper than his throat, and was extremely shocked: "You...... What the hell is going on? Who killed you? ”
Lu Zhi closed his eyes slightly, but he immediately opened his eyes again, obviously holding on. He looked sideways at the ground, knowing that he was no longer able to write the person's name, and at that moment his fingers moved slightly, he pointed at Chu Shenxia, and then made the numbers ten and six.
Liu Yan looked at Chu Shenxia in surprise, and was thinking about the meaning of ten and six, when the person in his arms suddenly sank, Liu Yan hurriedly looked down, but saw that he was really out of breath.
Lu Zhi has known him since he was a child, and after so many years of getting along, Liu Yan has long regarded him as his relative, and he is very sad and sheds tears at the moment.
When he looked up, he saw Chu Shenxia smiling slightly, and was immediately stunned, Chu Shenxia met Liu Yan's stunned expression, and hurriedly pointed behind him and said, "Your Highness, Qibai's people are back, presumably the side concubine has escaped." ”
Liu Yan looked back and saw that it was indeed as he said, but he still couldn't forget that scene, how weak was Chu Shenxia's heart? Even if Lu Zhi's friendship with him is not so deep, then at least it will reveal a trace of sadness, right?
But Chu Shenxia didn't. Liu Yan thought so, and then remembered the finger that Lu Zhi pointed before he died, and he couldn't understand what he meant by pointing at Chu Shenxia? What do ten and six mean?
Chen Zhiming saw that Qi Bai was gone and returned, so he hurriedly got up and asked, "Has General Qi succeeded?" Why did you come back so quickly? ”
Qibai's gaze was on the bloody man in Liu Yan's arms, and then he replied: "She jumped into the lake." ”
When Liu Yan heard this, his eyes were shocked, he looked up at Qibai, and saw that he was worried, but he put his mind at ease, and sure enough, he heard Chen Zhiming ask, "Jumping into the lake?" She's just gone? ”
"I was careless, we waited for a while and didn't see any movement in the water, but in the end we let her escape!" Qibai gritted his teeth.
