Chapter 31: Misfortune Strikes
"Poof......
Qianle couldn't hold it anymore and spit out a mouthful of blood.
She had just seen a small servant light the grass in the outer hall, and the speed at which the fire burned was even more staggering. I thought that after practicing the water system technique, it would not be difficult to extinguish this fire. But she's casting the enchantment again, and she really can't spare her hands. The fire seemed to be spiritual, and it crawled down the eaves of the house, and it was so hot that it almost burned her lotus fairy alive......
OK...... Good thing I'm ...... Qianle thought, if he doesn't come this time...... The people in the inner hall were not protected by this enchantment, and they were afraid that they would all be eaten to ashes by the fire......
The sound of rushing water kept pouring in the outer hall, but it didn't have much effect. The fire continues to spread...... Qianle's legs have already caught the spark, and his small body is about to be unbearable.
"Boom. ”
It's thunder!
Asa Le breathed a sigh of relief tiredly...... Thunderbolt mother...... It's finally time to be on duty......
A drifting rain fell as soon as it was said, extinguishing the "accidental" fire.
"Princess...... Minion: This will bandage you. ”
From time to time, Yun You collected all the corpse poison into his body, and he used his internal force to suppress it fiercely, preventing its toxin from flowing into his internal organs.
"Good...... It's been a long time......"
Chu Ning responded, turned his head and felt that something was wrong, "Shi Yu, what's going on outside?" When I asked you, why didn't you answer?"
"Princess, it was the slave who sealed her acupoint, not that she intended to do so. There was a fire in the outer hall just now, and now it's fine. ”
A fire?
"Why...... I don't smell anything at all?"
Chu Ning said, sniffing twice more with his nose. It didn't matter if she didn't smell it, but when she sniffed, she found that she couldn't even smell the incense she had lit at night.
"The princess doesn't have to worry, Xu Shi hurt the princess's muscles when she cast the spell just now. Wait for the slave to prescribe a few doses of medicine and recuperate, and you will be cured in a few days. ”
"Oh...... Taoist ...... How long will it take for my face to get better......"
Chu Ning said, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious. After all, this face hasn't gotten better for more than ten years...... Now he has suffered from Gu cultivation and bloodletting...... If so, it's not better...... Even if it's intolerable......
"Rest assured, princess, as soon as the poisonous blood comes out, your face will be restored to its original state in less than ten days. ”
Decameron??
Chu Ning's face was irrepressibly happy, "Then I'll wait for ten days and send someone to the Dao Chief's Mansion to report the good news......"
......
Seeing Yunyou coming out of the inner hall of Yuhua Palace with a great injury, Qianle collapsed on the beam. She is no longer a fairy, this time she was injured by fire, and I don't know how long it will take to heal her body......
Thanks to Lei Gongdian's mother, she came in time, and returned to Guirui Fengyu another day, and she had to talk to her aunt well...... Say thank you to the two immortals.
It was inconvenient for her to stay longer, so she lost her fairy spirit, and returned to Taihu Lake with the wind as soon as she slipped away.
The army led by King Heng had not yet left, and it happened to meet Yunyou.
Why is he here?
Why is he here?
The doubts in the hearts of the two people are the same...... But no one spoke.
Yun You didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing for this person to appear in front of him at this time.
After all, he had only been in the inner sanctum, and he didn't know the specific situation outside...... I don't know if Ling Yi'an is fighting fires or arson......
Look at him like that...... My body is too weak to walk...... Ling Yi'an frowned, the imperial brother was in a hurry, and asked him to hurry up to save the princess and the Taoist, then the imperial brother must have known that Yunyou was by the princess's side...... It's just that what is Yunyou doing in there, and in the middle of the night, still in the princess's bedroom?
After thinking about it for a while, he didn't come up with any results, and then he heard a rush of footsteps behind him.
Who's coming?
Looking back, Ling Yi'an hurriedly knelt down, "Brother see the emperor." ”
"The Holy Majesty is coming, why don't you kneel down quickly!"
Gonggong Chen said in a strange manner, looking at the pile of sluggish soldiers in front of him, and laughed disdainfully.
Ling Huanyu snorted coldly, dragged out a dying little eunuch, and kicked him on the back of his ass, "Tell King Heng what you have done!"
"Your Majesty...... Minion ......"
When Ling Yi'an saw this formation, he always felt that something was wrong. When did the royal brother lose his temper so much......
"Your Majesty, the courtiers don't know ......"
"Shut up!"
Ling Huanyu looked at Ling Yi'an, and his eyes were almost like killing him alive......
"What else do you don't know?!It's this eunuch who deliberately went to Yuhua Palace to set a fire!It's just that his hands and feet are not clean, and he was seen by the rich and noble people around me, and he took him to Shensi and tortured you for a long time before he was willing to confess you, okay, you told me, why did you instigate this dog slave to go to the princess's bedroom to set fire?!"
What the?
Ling Yi'an looked at the little eunuch in front of him who was beaten and his flesh was blurred, and there were no more breaths left, swallowed his saliva, and couldn't think of a way to defend himself...... His head was covered in sweat.
How could there be such a thing...... Who set this trick on yourself?
"What's the matter, your heart is empty?
Ling Huanyu was furious, and there was a tendency to lift Ling Yi'an's head in the next moment.
Being punished and reprimanded in public by the royal brother like this has made him lose face. What's even more terrifying is that since the imperial brother has come to question himself in such a menacing manner, it means that he believes that he did it.
He's getting angry...... You can't go straight up on your own......
"Your Majesty, the slave thinks that the truth of this matter is not yet known, besides, His Royal Highness King Heng is your brother, and the emperor can ...... it."
"Brother, he's my brother, so I can connive again and again?"
Before Yunyou could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Ling Huanyu.
Everyone present was in danger, and even Gonggong Chen was frightened by the emperor's appearance...... Not to mention other little eunuchs and palace maids.
"If I don't punish him for committing such a crime because he is my brother, won't everyone in the palace have the courage to challenge my power as the Son of Heaven in the future?"
"Your Majesty, my brother has never done it, so I am naturally not afraid of the emperor's scrutiny. I'm afraid that the emperor will be deceived and mistaken for the loyal and good ......"
Ling Huanyu snorted coldly, "You mean, I can't tell right from wrong?" he raised his head, "Today, King Heng committed a crime and deliberately murdered the princess of Northern Xinjiang, fined him for three years, and imprisoned the palace. You are not allowed to come out without my orders. ”
"Your Majesty, at least give your courtiers a chance to explain!"
"How do you explain it? This dog slave is a human witness, do you want physical evidence? Chen Zhong!"
When Gonggong Chen heard the holy will, he immediately stepped forward and handed a letter to Ling Huanyu.
"Take a good look at what this is!"
Ling Huanyu threw the letter on the ground, as if it was thrown together with their brotherhood for more than 20 years.
Stretched out a trembling hand and picked up the letter, opened it and looked at it...... It was written nothing else, but the words of some instigating the little eunuch who committed the crime...... The handwriting was exactly the same as my own.
It seems that this matter is not groundless, but someone planned it in advance......
"Now you have nothing to say!"
Ling Yi'an was dragged out of the palace like this, and his miserable screams echoed in the Tianlang Palace, which made people feel distressed when they heard it.
Yun You narrowed his eyes slightly, stopped interjecting, and asked Ling Huanyu for peace and prepared to leave the palace.
"Wait. ”
Ling Huanyu stopped him.
"Today, the Cloud Daoist has taken care of the princess, and I want to personally invite the Daoist to have a few drinks. ”
Yun You thought about it for a while, in such a large audience, he couldn't show the emperor's face, so he made a slight gesture, "The slave obeys the order." ”
Along the way with Ling Huanyu, Yunyou's mind kept spinning without stopping......
Tonight's events are full of suspicions.
When he was poisoning, he had actually noticed the agitation outside the door. That fire sounded, it was really not small, but why didn't he and Chu Ning burn in the inner hall for so long? Isn't this suspicious? Is it good that the fire that suddenly started is aimed at? Is it against himself, or at Chu Ning? Yun You thought about it, and couldn't help but think of the palm he endured the last time he planted Gu......
Moreover...... As soon as he went out, he met Ling Yi'an's eyes. Although he had some doubts before, but then he thought about it carefully, Ling Yi'an's originally handsome face was full of dust...... I was also drenched in a lot of rain. If tonight's matter is really as Ling Huanyu said, it is Ling Yi'an's handiwork...... So why did Ling Yi'an come over desperately to bring people to put out the fire......
Doesn't it make sense before and after?
To be honest, Yunyou felt that Ling Huanyu was really unable to see through it...... I can't see through what he wants to do, and I always feel that he is not as incompetent and stupid as the world says......
"Dao Chief, please. ”
Ling Huanyu smiled and brought Yun You into his dormitory, "Although it's already the second watch, I don't feel sleepy, I don't know if this disturbance of the Daoist will disturb the Daoist's Qing Xiu?"
Yun You listened, and hurriedly waved his hand, "The emperor said that he was joking, the slave is the emperor's person, so naturally everything is based on the emperor's business." ”
"Hahaha...... Chen Zhong......"
Before Ling Huanyu finished speaking, Gonggong Chen knew what to do, and with a wave of the beard in his hand, he took away all the eunuchs and palace maids in the dormitory.
"Father-in-law, what is the origin of this cloud road chief, why does the emperor avoid us every time he comes?"
Fugui asked beside him, and was kicked by Gonggong Chen again, "What did I tell you yesterday, don't ask if you're okay, don't ask, I see that if you are disobedient, don't stay with me, sooner or later you will be beheaded!
Fugui pouted dissatisfiedly, and was reprimanded again...... But in fact, he had other ideas in his heart...... Today's incident, he didn't see any little eunuchs go to Yuhua Palace to deliberately set fire...... But...... There is another hidden ...... It's just that he didn't dare to say it. If you say that, you will really lose your head......
Although Chen Zhong can be regarded as his master, when the catastrophe is really coming, he will not kick himself away...... It can be seen that if you want to gain a foothold in the palace, you have to find a backer who will not fall as soon as possible......
