Chapter 115: Bloodbath in the capital
Updated: 2014-03-25
The hot hand and the scorching temperature traveled on the edge of Qin Yunuan's collarbone, gradually going down, and then down, it was a sensitive and fragile part, Leng Changxi was rusty but repeatedly kneaded the tender and soft, and the lip flap did not stop, he leaned Qin Yunuan against the plum blossom pile, lowered his head deeply, and slightly pinched Qin Yunuan's small but full chin with his free hand, and the friction of his fingertips carried a feeling that made people numb and addicted.
"Do you blame me for risking you?" After a long time, Leng Changxi let go of Qin Yunuan, but the placket of his clothes was still messy and kept reminding the two of them of what had just happened.
Qin Yunuan lowered her head and whispered back: "I know, you will never do something that you are not sure of." β
Leng Changxi's eyes flashed slightly, and then he hugged Qin Yunuan, his little hedgehog always understood him so well, he lowered his head and kissed Qin Yunuan's forehead, the smooth forehead was cold and cold, just like the wind in the middle of the night.
And Leng Changxi's voice was deeper than this midnight: "In the past, I was not afraid of anyone, it was because I had nothing to worry about, I acted boldly and neatly, because I had no scruples, but now, I have you, I can't let you be like me, I want to pave the way for you, the emperor found out about her and the Dou family's practice as early as nine years ago, that is, not long after Lu Jinghua entered the palace, but because the Dou family is the founding hero and the old man Dou has protΓ©gΓ©s all over the place, it is not easy to do it, nine years, It took the emperor and me nine years to slowly clean up the people of the Dou family from the court, and what was left behind were our nails. β
Qin Yunuan raised his head slightly, and happened to meet Leng Changxi's deep and dark eyes in this slightly cool summer breeze, and the sparks that collided were fleeting, nine years ago, Leng Changxi was eleven years old, and since then, he has begun to participate in the complicated political struggle of Daqi, he is still a child, but he is doing something that some adults can't do.
Leng Changxi smiled slightly, he only needed a glance, almost without thinking about it, he could read the meaning in Qin Yunuan's eyes, his little hedgehog was worried about himself, he felt sorry for himself, Leng Changxi reached out and touched the broken hair on Qin Yunuan's sideburns, and his slender fingers gently pushed the few strands of hair that had fallen down behind Qin Yunuan's ears.
"The Dou family has always been a big trouble for the emperor and the queen mother," Leng Changxi continued, "I want to take the opportunity to arrange you in, first, I can arrange you by my side, you know, tonight, you are definitely a hundred times safer in Xiangguo Temple than in the Qin family, and second, you can also take the opportunity to invite the queen mother, and then, officially give marriage." β
Qin Yunuan lowered his head: "Hmm." β
Leng Changxi smiled again, his fingers kneading Qin Yunuan's little hand with a very good touch: "Actually, if it is according to my usual temperament, I will marry whoever I want, and no one can care, on the one hand, the Queen Mother is a person I respect very much, on the other hand, I want to marry you beautifully, and everyone knows how to stop." β
Qin Yunuan smiled and slapped Leng Changxi's heart with a pink punch: "In the past, I thought you were a cold-faced general who didn't eat the fireworks of the world, but I didn't expect that now I also love to clean up those big things." β
Leng Changxi lowered his head and gently bit the tip of Qin Yunuan's nose, his voice was full of tenderness and endless lingering: "That's because I haven't met you in the past, and now I really want every family to knock on the door and shout with drums, saying that you are going to be my wife Leng Changxi, the only wife." β
Qin Yunuan was attached to Leng Changxi's chest, after so many things and disasters, she and Leng Changxi almost didn't need words to understand each other's meaning, she nodded, and her voice was small: "Well, the only one." β
The next day, when the carriage took Qin Yunuan back to the Qin family, it confirmed Leng Changxi's words, Xiangguo Temple was indeed a hundred times safer than the Qin family.
Almost overnight, many high-ranking officials' residences in the capital were suddenly attacked by masters, and the people who came seemed to be specifically targeting officials above the third rank in the DPRK and China, and the purpose of the attack was extremely clear, they all came directly to the officials' residences, and then sneaked in, killed with one move, and destroyed the corpses.
This is the last stubborn resistance of the Dou family, but it is a pity that Sima Xiu and Leng Changxi have long been prepared, strengthened the defense of Beijing, and secretly strengthened the security around the ministers' mansions, but it is a pity that last night there were five ministers who went out to drink flower wine, and they did not return at night, and when they were finally discovered, they all died in the ancient well in the backyard of the Qinglou, and the corpses had been soaked all night, and the death was extremely terrible.
When Qin Yunuan returned to the Qin family, the Qin family was already in chaos.
Qin Zhen originally started with the help of the Dou family, but in the end he sent Dou Qing'e to the Crazy Tower, the Dou family will definitely send the best killer to take Qin Qin's head, although Leng Changxi has sent more people to the Qin family, but after last night's trouble, the yard is still a little messy, leaving a lot of traces of fighting, when Qin Yunuan entered the courtyard, he happened to see a small guy in the gatehouse holding his bloody arm and being helped out.
Qin Zhen stood in the courtyard, looking at the empty yard where the potted antiques were shattered, and his hair seemed to be gray a lot.
"Father." Qin Yunuan softly greeted him.
Qin Zhen slowly lowered his eyes and looked at Qin Yunuan under the steps, his eyes were so dark that he didn't seem to have any vitality, not at all like the shrewd Qin Taiwei on weekdays.
"You're back." Qin Zhen's voice lacked the majesty of the past, for the first time, when he talked to Qin Yunuan, he had a little father's human touch, he knew in his heart that if it weren't for Leng Changxi thinking about Qin Yunuan and taking more care of the Qin family, the assassin who was as fast as lightning last night had already solved himself, where would he still have his life to stand here.
For the first time, he had to rely on a concubine daughter to survive. But fortunately, he had just received the news that the Dou family had all subjugated the law, and the capital Hangzhou was almost at the same time, and overnight, the power of the Dou family was like a radish and cleaned up the radish with mud, and Dou Qing'e in the madman tower hanged herself after hearing about the Dou family.
The Dou family, from now on, finally has nothing to do with him Qin Qian, no one can threaten him anymore, once the Dou family is destroyed, it means that the days when he relied on women to seek power and increase his official position in the past are gone, thinking of this, he smiled, and the corners of his mouth were raised oldly, with the taste of wind and dust.
Qin Yunuan just glanced at it lightly, and then blessed his body and said, "Father, Yunuan went back first." β
For Qin Qian, Qin Yunuan can't feel much fatherly love and affection after all, Qin Qin loves himself too much, and he can't move his love to sincerely care for his family.
And Qin Yunuan is most concerned about Baochuan, Liao's mother, Tingxue and Aunt Chang who helped her.
Last night, the only two places in the entire capital that were not affected, one was Ning Wang's Mansion and the other was Fuxi Courtyard.
Man'er ran in front, and before he knocked on the door, the door of Fuxi Courtyard creaked open, and it was Tingxue who opened the door, his eyes were red, and he looked like he had cried.
"Third girl, you're back," Tingxue, who had always been calm, choked up for the first time, "I was really worried about the dead slave maid last night, come in." β
Immediately, Liao's mother and Aunt Chang, who temporarily hid in Fuxi Courtyard last night, also came out, and when they saw Qin Yunuan's safe and sound, their hearts were relieved.
"Sister!" Suddenly, with a crisp sound, Qin Baochuan ran out of the house like a fly and threw himself into Qin Yunuan's arms. The little hand wrapped around Qin Yunuan's calf and refused to let go, as if he was afraid that Qin Yunuan would run away again.
Just like that, Qin Yunuan suddenly felt that all the apprehensions and thrills he had experienced were worth it.
Qin Yunuan squatted down, hugged Baochuan tightly, touched Baochuan's head and comforted: "Sister is back, sister is fine, it was my sister who frightened Baochuan." β
"No," Qin Baochuan raised his head, although his eyes were also red, but the tears had not flowed, his sister had taught him, men don't flick when they have tears, so he must not cry, "Baochuan is worried about his sister," Qin Baochuan wiped the tears on his face for Qin Yunuan and said, "Baochuan is a man, it should be Baochuan who protects his sister, but unfortunately Baochuan can't do anything but read now, Baochuan feels that he is too useless, so Baochuan decided to be like his brother-in-law in the future, not only to study poetry and the art of war, but also to exercise and learn martial arts." , and will not let anyone bully my sister in the future. β
"Brother-in-law?" Qin Yunuan was slightly stunned, what did Baochuan say about Leng Changxi? She really didn't expect that at Baochuan's young age, this brother-in-law would already shout so freely.
"The third girl doesn't know yet," Aunt Chang handed Qin Baoduan in her arms into the hands of the nurse, and led Qin Yunuan into the house with a smile, "On the way back from the third girl, the Queen Mother's decree has come down, saying that the third girl is beautiful and wise, and has a good character, and wants to crown the third girl as the five-grade Pingjun Lord, and choose a day to marry General Leng and the Heping County Lord," After speaking, he smiled again, "I see that the title of the county lord is still small, and when the third girl marries, I am afraid that I will give a lady of fate." β
Aunt Chang's inference is reasonable, Leng Changxi is a general in the middle of the court, and now he has made miraculous achievements in pacifying the Dou family, and Qin Yunuan has also provided a lot of important clues, and future seals and rewards are indispensable.
Qin Yunuan lowered her head slightly and smiled shyly, what she was happy about was not how many rewards there were and how good her reputation was, what she was happy about was that everything was so natural, everything was so natural.
Sure enough, at noon, the Empress Dowager's decree and the emperor's decree arrived at the Qin family one after another.
The five-grade Pingjun Lord, which means that in the future, people like Qin Linfeng and Qin Yunxiang who have no grade will have to salute when they see Qin Yunuan, looking at Qin Linfeng and Qin Yunxiang, who were kneeling on the side to receive the decree together, the more and more ugly cold and wooden on their faces, Qin Yunuan just smiled clearly, and took the holy decree from her father-in-law, Qin Yunuan heard this decree and her father-in-law flattered and flattering: "The Queen Mother will recover from a serious illness tomorrow, and she is going to hold a banquet in the palace, and she specially invited Qin San Girl to go to the banquet, and in the future, this Qin San Girl will be a master, You have to remember to mention some miscellaneous families, and the miscellaneous families will have to rely on Miss Qin San. β
