Chapter 207: The Ghost Doctor Turned Out to Be Xiao Ling!
Chu Junyue's face condensed, "What the hell is going on!"
"I don't know very well!" Yuan Bao said with a bitter face: "At that time, the prince and I were both encircling and suppressing the Lin family's army, leaving people to watch Concubine Shu and Lin Yihai, and after a while, the guards were poisoned to death!"
After a pause, Yuan Bao raised his head and said seriously: "We all saw that it was the second prince who took Concubine Shu away!"
Ning Ke frowned, Second Prince, will he use poison?
A flash of disbelief suddenly crossed her mind, and her eyes widened suddenly, "Ghost doctor!"
Chu Junyue glanced at her, his lips were pursed into a cold line, Huo Ran got up, and drank coldly, "Go to the prison!"
"I'll go with you!"
Ning Ke also put down the dishes and chopsticks and followed Chu Junyue to the prison.
In the melee in Kyoto, the prison did not enter, with layers of checks, layers of checkpoints, especially for crimes like Chu Yuxuan, the place of detention was even more secret, and few people knew about it.
However, when Chu Junyue and Ning Ke arrived at the scene, the door of the cell where Chu Yuxuan and the ghost doctor were held had already been opened, and there were two unconscious jailers lying on the ground, and there was a dusty figure lying in the cell, which should be the ghost doctor.
"Go and see!" Chu Junyue's face was cold, and he stood outside the door with his hands in his hands, and Yuan Bao went in to check.
"Ah! Master, look!" As soon as Yuan Bao opened the ghost doctor, he suddenly exclaimed, as if he had seen something terrifying, "face...... The face is gone!"
Ning Ke was also checking the jailer on the ground just now, and when he heard him shout, he suddenly raised his head, and happened to see the skinned face, and he was also startled at that time.
"It's ...... Peeling?"
Although she was used to seeing corpses, this was the first time she had seen such a scene!
Chu Junyue gently pulled her to his side, covered her eyes, and said softly, "Don't look." ”
"I've seen it. Ning Ke smiled and took his hand away, "I'm a doctor, I haven't seen any scenes." ”
"But you ...... now" Chu Junyue frowned, she was pregnant, and occasionally had morning sickness, seeing such a bloody scene, she would naturally be uncomfortable.
Ning Ke gave him a reassuring look and stepped into the cell, where scarlet blood flowed from the hay, some of which had dried up and were black and sticking to the ground.
"Princess......" Yuan Bao looked at her worriedly, she shook her head, signaled that he was okay, and squatted down to check.
As soon as his hand was on the ghost doctor's neck, Ning Ke's eyebrows jumped, "He's not dead!"
"It's not dead!" Chu Junyue was also surprised behind him, a person was skinned and left so much blood, but he didn't die!
Ning Ke looked at it, his face became more and more cold, "Although this person was skinned, the skinners were skilled, and they almost didn't hurt their facial muscles, although they bled a lot, they were also properly disposed of, so they didn't die." ”
"This is not a ghost doctor!" Chu Junyue's eyes were cold, "This is Chu Yuxuan!" The ghost doctor peeled off his face and made a human skin mask, pretending to be Chu Yuxuan and took away Concubine Shu!"
Otherwise, Chu Yuxuan would not be able to peel the skin, and even if he could, he would not be the opponent of the ghost doctor.
When Yuan Bao heard this, the whole person was shocked, "What does that ghost doctor want Chu Yuxuan's face to do?!"
"First of all, he must want to use Chu Yuxuan's identity to coax Concubine Shu to escape!" Ning Ke explained: "Even, the ghost doctor has a bigger conspiracy. ”
The ghost doctor is afraid that he not only has a grudge against Old Man Hu, but may also have other plans. As long as he pretends to be Chu Yuxuan, then the Lin family will follow him and fight for him for the world!
This ghost doctor...... has been silent for so long, it turns out that he is also a sinister villain!
"Let's go!"
Chu Junyue pursed his lips, brushed his sleeves and left, Ning Ke glanced at Chu Yuxuan, who was faceless on the ground, sighed, or asked Yuanbao to find someone to take a look.
She is not soft-hearted, but Chu Yuxuan still has a purpose.
At the city gate, Chun Yuyan is still leading the men and horses to fight, and the Lin family's army is also concentrated here, and the number of both sides is equal, but some poison will fly out of the carriage of Concubine Shu from time to time, and once the soldiers touch it, they will definitely die, so even if Chun Yuyan has excellent martial arts, it is not easy to perform.
No one around the carriage dared to approach, so they rushed out of the city gate.
When Chu Junyue and Ning Ke arrived, they happened to see the carriage rushing out of the city gate, and the curtains of the carriage were disgusted, revealing Chu Yuxuan's stiff face.
He smiled weirdly, his lips moving and saying something.
After Ning Ke read his lips, he shook violently and shouted at Chu Junyue, "Stop her!
"Xiao Ling!" Chu Junyue's eyes showed a look of shock, he jumped up from his horse, stepped on his head and rushed to the city gate.
"Chirp-"
But at that time, there was a sudden rain of arrows outside the door, and Chu Junyue was densely surrounded.
Chu Junyue twisted his body in mid-air, and he was able to dodge the cold arrows like a cow's hair, and when he wanted to catch up again, the carriage had already gone away under the escort of the Lin family's army.
"Chase! Be sure to stop the carriage!"
Chu Junyue waved his hand blatantly and shouted angrily!
Once again, there was a fight in front of the city gates, and due to the limitations of the position, it was impossible to carry out any strategy, and it could only rely on force.
It lasted until the evening, and the battle ended with Chu Junyue's victory, and the remnants of the Lin family's army here were all wiped out!
At night, the blood flowed like a river, and the large stone bricks in front of and behind the castle gate flowed slowly like a red river, and the wind mixed with a foul smell that enveloped the entire city of Kyoto, lingering.
It is said that the corpses piled up in front and behind the city gate, and it took two days to transport them, and the blood stains on the ground were washed over and over again, and they could not be cleaned, and a thick layer of crimson blood stains condensed in the brick cracks, showing the tragedy of this day's changes!
The emperor came to his senses on the third day after the incident, and he didn't know what had happened until Chu Junyue told the truth, and then fainted again.
When he woke up again, it was the next day.
"You...... Do you say that Concubine Shu escaped? Or did the fake Empress Dowager Xiao Ling take it away?" the emperor leaned weakly on the dragon couch, and now it is still unbelievable, how did Xiao Ling come back again? And no one knows!
Chu Junyue said in a light tone: "The ghost doctor is Xiao Ling's pretense, the ghost doctor has already died in the sea of fire back then, Xiao Ling just took this opportunity to come back and disturb the situation." ”
"No...... It's impossible ......" The emperor still couldn't believe it, and muttered in his mouth, "Why is she so capable, I have been with her for so long, and I didn't even notice it......"
Chu Junyue smiled silently, but the smile was mocking and disdainful.
The emperor was fascinated by Concubine Shu and took rice sacs every day, what sense is there to speak of?
The ghost doctor always gave him all kinds of messy medicines, and the emperor was now in his last years, where did he still want to understand so many things?
He didn't bother to talk to the emperor too much, anyway, the emperor couldn't understand and couldn't say it clearly.
In the end, he handed over the matter to the crown prince, and he, the regent, was like an idler with nothing to do, flicking his sleeves and leaving.
"Uncle Huang, please stay. The prince chased him out, and there seemed to be something to puzzle.
Chu Junyue turned his head and hooked his lips, "What else is there to do with Your Highness?"
"Second Prince...... Oh no, what should Chu Yuxuan do?" The prince changed his words in time, Chu Yuxuan can no longer be regarded as a prince, the Lin family intends to rebel, it is a capital crime, and naturally he is no longer a prince.
However, how to deal with it, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is still unsure, and he always feels that this Chu Yuxuan is a pawn left by his imperial uncle.
Chu Junyue narrowed his eyes and smiled deeply, "Your Highness, although Chu Yuxuan should be beheaded, but Concubine Shu has absconded, and the Lin family's army is scattered all over the place, and he will come back one day, so it is naturally useful to keep him." ”
Speaking of this, his smile deepened, and a chilling coldness floated in his eyes, "Besides, doesn't Chu Yuxuan still have a marriage contract with Princess Ningle? ”
He didn't say much about the rest of the words, and the prince also knew it, and took it with a smile, "That nephew understands, and he will definitely preside over the marriage for Chu Yuxuan and Princess Ning Le." ”
"In this way, it is hard for His Royal Highness the Prince. Chu Junyue pouted with an unfathomable smile, turned around leisurely, and walked towards the palace gate step by step.
The prince stared motionlessly at the still cold voice under the sun, and muttered in his mouth, "You can't mess with anyone and Uncle Huang, otherwise it won't end well......"
Chu Yuxuan and Princess Ning Le are the best examples, aren't they?
*
After the Wanli Change, Kyoto seems to have returned to normal, and for the common people, it is just a nightmare, waking up from the dream, life goes on the same.
But Ning Ke's heart was still unable to calm down, and her mind was full of the words that Xiao Ling said when she went out of the city gate, which always made her sleep.
Chu Junyue also found that something was wrong with her, thinking that she was frightened by seeing such a scene for the first time, so he comforted her and coaxed her.
"Xiao Ke'er, it's all over, don't remember, I'll be careful in the future and don't let you see these dirty things. ”
"You think I'm scared?" Ning Ke couldn't help laughing as he looked at him coaxing a child, "I'm not scared because of that." ”
Chu Junyue was puzzled, "Why is that uncomfortable?" As soon as he thought of this, he immediately leaned on her stomach and listened, "It can't be that this kid is restless, right?"
Ning Ke was even more amused, and pulled him up, "I've only been a few months yet, I haven't shown my feelings yet, where can you hear it? He can't toss me." ”
"What's going on with that?" Chu Junyue grabbed her hand and put it on his heart, and said anxiously: "Don't torture me, hurry up and tell me what's wrong?"
Ning Ke glanced at him seriously, sighed, and said, "Do you remember?" When Xiao Ling was out of the city gate, he suddenly turned around and said a word. ”
"Well, but I didn't hear that. Chu Junyue nodded, having the impression that "you are worried because of her words?"
Ning Ke nodded, "Yes, I don't know if her words were intentional or not, which made me feel uncomfortable." ”
"What did she say?" Chu Junyue's eyes were a little sharper, staring at her brightly.
Ning Ke sighed, "I don't know if I'm wrong, she should have said ...... at that time."
