Chapter 135: Human Skin Mask
The emperor turned his back to her, his dark eyes flashed with an unknown meaning, and he reluctantly responded: "If what you say is true, I will have people keep the cell strictly guarded tonight, and if anyone approaches, they will be killed." ”
"As for Zhu Qingliu, I will personally deal with it when the time comes, and I will definitely give you an explanation, a person with bad conduct is not worthy of being an official in the court. ”
Chu Jingshu didn't think much about it when she heard this, and nodded happily in agreement: "Thank you, concubine, Your Majesty." ”
"It's what I should do, you save your mother's heart, I can understand, so I won't really punish you, but there are some things that I need your help with......"
"The concubines are willing to share the emperor's worries. ”
About half an hour later, Chu Jingshu left, but she ran out crying, and heard the eunuch next to the emperor say that she was reprimanded again.
The palace people are constantly talking about this, before the emperor was deposed, she was still Concubine Jing, and there may be a possibility of turning over in the future.
The emperor summoned the eunuch in, and the eunuch said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Concubine Jing ...... her."
The emperor didn't seem to care much, and interrupted him in a cold voice: "Don't let people break in casually, otherwise watch your head." ”
"Yes. The eunuch nodded, he had experienced what had happened to Fang Cai, where did he dare to be careless, "The slave must be properly guarded and not let people in." ”
The emperor's eyes turned to the back of the curtain, and his face was condensed: "Come out, the people have already left." ”
A pair of men's legs came out and said in a deep voice: "The minister does things for the emperor, and he has no two hearts." ”
"I have asked you to deal with Lu Yuanbai many times, but I don't worry about him, you are the person I support, it is best not to let me down easily. ”
"I won't let people guard the cell tonight, you have to kill people before Zhu Qingliu, and then push them to the Four Kings' Mansion. ”
"Yes!" the other party decisively agreed.
The night was like a big dark hand, enveloping the entire Shangjing, and Zhu Qingliu lurked outside the prison, and before that, he had clearly felt the situation in the prison.
When a round of guards changed, he saw the right time to make a move, and suddenly noticed someone behind him, turned around vigilantly and raised his sword: "Who is it?"
The other party stretched out his hand with the same agility, and half of his handsome face was hidden in the night, and he sneered: "I haven't seen you for a few days, you can't even hear the voice of this king?"
Zhu Qingliu put down his sword and stopped fighting him, and a cold snort overflowed from his throat: "It seems that the person who the prince has placed next to me has not been removed, and he still doesn't believe me in the end." ”
"This king doesn't trust anyone easily," Lu Yuanbai tugged at the corners of his mouth, "Now it seems that this king's approach is correct, and people like you are not worth trusting!"
"Then the prince should be able to guess what I want to do, are you here to stop me?" his dark eyes shone with vigilance, and his hand unconsciously clenched his sword.
Lu Yuanbai raised his eyebrows, scratched the corners of his mouth, but he wasn't really smiling: "Didn't you tell Chu Jingshu everything?
Zhu Qingliu was stunned for a moment, and only then reacted from his words: "The prince is really a good means, is there someone you installed by the emperor's side?"
"There are also people of the emperor in the king's palace, and they will take what they need when necessary. Lu Yuanbai did not answer positively, but wrinkled his brows and pondered.
"Tonight the king is not here to stop you, but to make you look at something. ”
"What?" Zhu Qingliu didn't dare to believe him.
Lu Yuanbai swept to the corner of the prison wall in the distance, and when he saw the sneaky figure about to act, his condensed gaze paused and pulled him behind him.
"You'll find out soon. ”
The other party was dressed as an assassin, and after the jailer in the cell was knocked unconscious by him, he easily went in, and Zhu Qingliu's face changed slightly.
Is that to kill the eldest lady, or to save the eldest lady?
He raised his feet and wanted to step forward, but Lu Yuanbai didn't stop him, and said quietly: "You go, if he kills someone, it will be pushed on your head at that time, and this king will bring people to surround him, and he will just end up with a good reputation." ”
Zhu Qingliu retracted his feet, looked deeply at the door, and couldn't help but say to him: "I have cooperated with the prince before, and I ...... tonight."
Lu Yuanbai didn't wait for him to finish, and then resolutely interrupted him: "Whether you believe it or not, this king is just here to join in the fun tonight, and he won't interfere in anything." ”
"Then please don't stop me. He said that he would not care about anything else at night, and walked quickly into the prison.
When the eldest lady saw the assassin in front of her, she was about to shout when she saw that the other party pulled down the face towel to cover her, revealing Chu Jingshu's face: "Mother, come with me!"
She opened the cell door with a quick movement, grabbed the eldest lady's hand and ran, the eldest lady couldn't keep up, but she refused to stop.
"Why did you ...... suddenly," the eldest lady gasped lightly, remembering that she had touched the thin callus on her hand.
In the past, Chu Jingshu was also pampered as a pearl in the palm of her hand, she had never done rough work and heavy work, and there should be no thin calluses on her hands.
Besides, the hand was somewhat like a man's hand.
The eldest lady's face changed violently, she turned around and didn't have time to leave, she was pierced through her body from behind by a sword, and it was Chu Jingshu who spoke, but it was a man's voice.
"You really can't escape, it's really boring for me to kill you so easily. ”
"Who are you?" the eldest lady looked incredulous, and fell to the ground covered in blood, her breath gradually fainting.
The man looked at her coldly, took off the human skin mask on his face, and Zhu Qingliu's true face was revealed: "Can you die with peace of mind now?"
"I killed you, the next one is Chu Jingshu, everyone in the Protector's Mansion, I won't let go!"
"No......" The eldest lady hurriedly grabbed him with her hand, the blood in her hand was on him, and he took a step back and distanced himself from her.
"It's useless for you to beg me, I want to avenge Qinglu, and when she dies, I will bring her head to your grave so that you can have a good look!"
The cruelty he said was heart-wrenching, the eldest lady was short of breath, and when another Zhu Qingliu came over, he put on the face towel again.
"Who the hell are you!" Zhu Qingliu stretched out his hand to remove the face towel of the man in black.
The man in black repelled him with one palm, without any intention of entanglement with him, and quickly walked out of the cell, Zhu Qingliu wanted to chase, and Lu Yuanbai brought someone over.
Seeing the eldest lady on the ground at a glance, the guard probed her breath and found that she was helpless, and shook his head at Lu Yuanbai.
Lu Yuanbai looked at Zhu Qingliu: "You killed her?"
"Yes. Zhu Qingliu admitted it unprecedentedly.
Lu Yuanbai pursed his lips and said nothing, Yu Guang unintentionally swept his sword, not stained with the slightest bloodstain, but the sword wound on the eldest lady's body would not deceive.
If he didn't kill someone, why did he admit it, or was he hiding something, the fake assassin?
"Does the prince want to hand me over to the emperor?"
Lu Yuanbai passed by him and saw some marks at the base of his ears, which should be human skin masks!
"This king owes you a favor before, and this time I will pay it back to you, you left Shangjing overnight, and this king thinks of it here. ”
Zhu Qingliu stood in place and didn't move, he couldn't tell what he was thinking with emotion in his eyes, Lu Yuanbai raised his head and asked with a chuckle: "It's not good for this king to let you go?"
"Thank you, Lord Wang!" Zhu Qingliu left.
In just an instant, Lu Yuanbai's face sank, and he summoned the secret guard to order: "Follow quietly, find an opportunity to uncover his human skin mask." ”
