Chapter 130: Disturbing the Red Dust Tribulation
Su Liruo looked at him in shock, secretly surprised in her heart: Didn't he attack her because of defeat? To blackmail Li Yang Xiao? Or was she so angry that she wanted to kill her to vent her anger? Wait, what does he say? Dowry? Wasn't his strategy to give a dowry with rare treasures that day to provoke Li Yangxiao out of control and disappoint the courtiers?
Su Liruo suddenly found that he couldn't understand the ambitious and ruthless Li Zhenchen, what did he want to do? The words that came out made her feel like a cloud and a mist of confusion.
Su Liruo stared at him in a daze, and didn't know how to speak for a while?
Li Zhenchen's gaze sank, still hoarse, but his tone was a little colder: "What? You see that I am down, and you are unwilling to go with me? β
Walk? Su Liruo was stunned for a moment, and then understood something: he ventured into the other garden to take her away? Su Liruo was full of puzzlement, and couldn't help but look at him suspiciously, although he looked a little tired, he was still solemn and majestic, dressed handsomely, and his upright appearance was not half embarrassed. In this way, he is not out of control and crazy, at least she can be sure that Li Zhenchen is sober. Even in the midst of a sudden defeat, he maintained a solemn demeanor.
At this moment, Su Liruo admired him a little, he was a man with an iron backbone, and he calmly faced the loss and won the loss. It's just that back then, if he hadn't used the corpse of a soldier to erode and raise Gu Worms, then he wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable defeat.
Perhaps, at that time, he faced the repeated invasions of the Huns, and the countless deaths and injuries of the soldiers, he was anxious, and he was helpless to breed ruthless plans. It is undeniable that he had a pure heart to protect his family and defend the country at that time, but it is a pity that his eagerness for quick success and quick profit prompted him to be brutal and unkind and lose his original intention.
Su Liruo thought of this, and suddenly raised his eyes and asked, "Do you want to take me away?" Why? β
"I have given a dowry, so I naturally want to take you away, how can I let the woman I Li Zhenchen fancy let them peep?" Li Zhenchen raised his eyebrows, and his tone was wild, and his tone was domineering.
Su Liruo held her forehead and smiled helplessly, shook her head and asked, "How can you take me away in such a situation now?" How far can it go? β
Li Zhenchen's deep gaze stared at her tightly, and after a long while, he said in a hoarse voice: "Don't worry, I naturally have a way to protect you, and I won't let you suffer." But you play to remember, the throne... I can lose, but you... It's the woman I like Li Zhenchen, and I must not have different intentions. In the days to come, you can only stay by my side, and no one will want to get close to you. β
Su Liruo was shocked, he said it resolutely and decisively, which showed his determination. She lowered her eyes and took a quick glance of the room, and found that it seemed difficult to escape from the room with her skills. Because the door was bolted, the window was closed, and the non-entropy sword was not by her side, not to mention that she was now dressed in thin summer clothes, and it was really not suitable to fight him. She pondered for a moment, and asked as if she had nothing to do, as if she had nothing to do, "I have been carefree since I was a child, and I have never suffered, if I go with you, wouldn't life be difficult?" How can you protect me? Don't let me suffer? Besides, how do we leave? β
"I have some contacts in the surrounding small countries, and I have a lot of friendships, as long as I am willing to take refuge, they can't ask for it, and naturally they will not treat me badly." Li Zhenchen's eyes deepened a little, and she was a little surprised by the vanity between her words, the day before yesterday, the rare treasures were placed in the hall, and she disdained Qinggao, how could she... But as soon as he thought about it, he was quickly relieved. Although she is a delicate woman, although she has a few skills, it is difficult to resist the reality of the rich and prosperous days, and it seems understandable. Thinking of this, he relaxed his tone and said: "I have the bargaining chip of the virtuous queen in my hand, as long as I leave the territory tonight, someone outside will pick us up!"
In fact, Su Liruo was just trying to delay time so that he could come up with a perfect plan and get out safely, so he followed his words. But she never expected that Li Zhenchen's words made her stunned, and she almost revealed her flaws. She shuddered and asked, "Empress Xian?" What you're talking about..."
"That's right, Li Moxiao's biological mother." Li Zhenchen said, approaching her, not noticing her abnormality, only saying that she was hesitant. "Now you should rest assured!"
Su Liruo endured the panic in her heart, calmly looked indifferent, and moved her steps quietly, quietly pulled the distance, and glanced at the belt on the clothes. Suddenly, her heart moved, she instantly gave up her previous thoughts, and secretly sighed and said slowly: "Okay, I'll go with you!" But you stay out of the way, and let me change my clothes. β
Li Zhenchen was stunned, obviously he didn't expect her to change so quickly suddenly, and he actually agreed, he thought he would have to grind for a while. He paused hesitantly, then nodded, turned and walked out of the inner room, and laid down the beaded curtain for her, and stood in the outer room with his back on his back.
Su Liruo bit her lip lightly and hesitated, if she escaped now, it would not be effortless, after all, Li Zhenchen was in the outer room, and when he reacted, she had already arrived outside the courtyard, and she would definitely wake up her sister and Zhao Zijin at that time. However, she is out of Li Zhenchen's control, and Li Moxiao's biological mother... What should I do with the virtuous queen? She is still in Li Zhenchen's hands. In the first half of the night, she and her sister talked in the garden for so long, and they never received a message from the palace, it seems that the people in the palace have not yet noticed that Empress Xian was kidnapped by Li Zhenchen.
Su Liruo clenched her fists, she couldn't see death and not save her, so she could only wade into the tiger's den to find out where Li Zhenchen hid the virtuous queen? She quickly walked over to the wooden frame, removed her belt, and hid in the curtain.
Suddenly, she changed into a light yellow dress and walked out of the inner room, swept open the bead curtain, the sound of the beads alarmed Li Zhenchen, he slowly looked back, and saw Su Liruo in plain clothes, and his eyes couldn't hide his amazement. Stunned for a moment, he moved closer to her and whispered, "Let's go!"
Su Liruo couldn't help but feel a little flustered in her heart, but when she thought of the non-entropy sword at her waist, she nodded reassuringly.
Li Zhenchen approached her side, stretched out his hand to wrap his arms around her waist, Su Li couldn't help but stiffen, and before she could react, Li Zhenchen breathed a sigh of relief, hugged her and jumped out of the window, and swept outside the wall of the annex with a few ups and downs.
Li Zhenchen hugged her and flew to the back of a black horse that had been waiting for a long time under the willow tree, he clamped the horse's belly with his feet, pulled the reins, and the black horse galloped.
The cool night breeze lifted a few messy strands of hair on her forehead and danced in the wind. brushed Li Zhenchen's cheeks, making his heart flutter, and he unconsciously hugged her weak thin waist.
Su Liruo lowered her face, gritted her teeth tightly, grabbed the corner of her clothes in her palm, and forcibly endured that she was not comfortable with Li Zhenchen hugging her waist, and she also rode a horse together.
For about half an hour, the black horse stopped at the door of a guild hall, the so-called guild hall is the place where merchants from all walks of life gather to talk about tea on weekdays. Although the guild hall is mixed and varied, if you want to know the wonders of the world, the information of the guild hall is the fastest.
The hall of the third watch in the middle of the night was already silent, and the silence was terrifying, Li Zhenchen took Su Liruo into the hall, and the dim lanterns shone on the empty hall of Nuoda. Dozens of tables and chairs are neatly arranged, and tea sets are readily available, so you can imagine that it is bustling and noisy during the day.
When Su Liruo was still looking around the hall grounds, there was a sound of swishing, which startled her to look back, and dozens of people in black with sabers appeared on the stairs leading to the second floor of the hall in an instant. All of them are burly and vigorous, with black scarves on their heads, and their faces are grim, and an aura of slaughter envelops the entire hall.
Su Liruo's heart hung in her throat, and she glanced at Li Zhenchen nervously, but seeing his indifferent expression, she suddenly understood that this was his territory!
At this time, the black-clothed people on the stairs leaned on both sides, making way in the middle, and more than a dozen people dressed as generals came downstairs. They clasped their fists at Li Zhenchen and saluted, and one of them approached the two of them with a full face, looked at Su Liruo, and grinned: "The general went out in the middle of the night, it turned out to be for this little lady?" Sure enough, it's a beautiful embryo, no wonder the general took such a big risk and took her away. β
Su Liruo frowned, her eyes calm, and her face was cold.
Li Zhenchen's face was obviously gloomy, and he pursed his lips and said nothing.
Who knew that this guy was even more powerful, his eyes were shining, and he smiled and said with spittle: "Yo! This little lady is interesting, beauty is beauty, but it's too cold, general, don't blame the general for being too talkative, this woman is screaming! You can't be spoiled, otherwise you will go to heaven. You see that the brothers usually go up to the moon tower to drink flower wine, and the women there are docile and enthusiastic..."
Li Zhenchen glared at him with a cruel look, and immediately asked this guy who was full of cannon fodder to shut up, scratch his head sneeringly, and retreat to the side twice.
A thin-looking general approached Li Zhenchen's side and whispered: "General, the manpower has been gathered, and you can go on the road, but the virtuous queen..."
Li Zhenchen's eyes sank, and he waved his hand to stop him from continuing, and the man immediately understood and gradually stepped aside.
Li Zhenchen thought for a moment, then stood forward, and said in a loud voice: "In another hour, we will set off, carefully check carefully, but there is anything missing." Now all in place and waiting to hit the road! As he spoke, he turned sideways and whispered to Su Liruo, "You come with me upstairs for a while."
Su Liruo bowed slightly, walked with him to the stairs, and when she reached the staircase, Li Zhenchen suddenly reached out to hold her little hand and led her upstairs in full view of everyone.
Su Liruo was shocked, and shook it in resistance, but he held it tighter, she sighed helplessly, so she had to stiffen and let him drag him step by step upstairs.
Behind him, the guy with a sideways face was spitting all over his mouth again: "Look at it! The general is usually majestic and harsh, but now he is so soft for a woman, tsk! Since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty pass, and our general can be regarded as planted in the hands of this little lady this time..."
The thin general slapped him on the head with a palm, and scolded him coldly: "You guy just owes your mouth, forgot the trouble you caused last time?" You dare to talk nonsense about the general, don't you still want to go into the stable to smoke and pee? β
The meaty-faced guy immediately stopped talking when he heard this, snorted the thin general with dissatisfaction, walked to the side table and chair with some embarrassment, and sat down angrily.
Li Zhenchen whispered to her and seemed to explain to her: "They are all brothers who followed me from birth to death before, sharing weal and woe, who have been on the battlefield for many years, have a strong temperament, and speak roughly, don't be surprised!" At that time, the meritorious Hui Dynasty got an official and a half position, and people were easy to become extravagant and decadent under comfort. The rest of the men continued to guard the border, and I withdrew them all the year before last. β
Su Li didn't say anything, bowing her head slightly, in fact, she also understood that she had been stationed at the border for many years and had been beaten by wind and rain. When I returned to the bustling long street of the government and the opposition, I didn't fit in, and it was inevitable that I would be out of place. Half of the reason why Li Zhenchen opened this hall is because these soldiers who have returned from guarding the border have at least a place to accommodate them, and this place must be free and unrestrained.
When he arrived upstairs, Li Zhenchen took Su Liruo to a room around the corner, pushed open the door and said, "You go to my room first to stay, if you are tired, rest for a while." I've got some things to attend to, so I'll come back to you later. With that, he let go of her hand, led her into the room, turned back and closed the door and went out.
Su Liruo listened to the sound of his heavy footsteps in the distance, and hurriedly glanced around the room through the dim light, the utensils were simple but exquisite.
Su Liruo felt indescribably strange in her heart, but she didn't know that something was wrong, she glanced at the wooden carved bed under the curtain of Qingluo's tent, and the neat bedding. She knew in her heart that this hall looked simple, but in fact, the tools used were all exquisitely carved and rare, but the color was dark, so it was misleading. Including this room, the furnishings are all of the highest quality, but because of the dark color, it gives people a simple and old feeling.
Su Li couldn't help but think of the rare treasures given by Li Zhenchen, and she wondered in her heart: Li Zhenchen made a generous move, could he be richer than the country? Otherwise, the treasures that entered the secret room of the Prince's Mansion alone were enough to recruit troops and destroy a small country, not to mention the superb utensils displayed in this guild hall. If this escape is successful, all his possessions in the Land of the Day will be in smoke, and seeing him so calm, his possessions should be more than what they seem. He is a general who has been stationed on the border for many years, even if Emperor Zhen later summoned him back to the court to give him a mansion, the wealth is only a rich life, where do his unknown properties come from?
The mystery on Li Zhenchen's body became even more confusing, and Su Liruo felt that his thoughts were confused, and it was difficult to sort out for a while. But the top priority, she should find out where Li Zhenchen locked up the virtuous queen? Just now, I saw the thin general whispering in his ear, and faintly heard the word Empress Xian, it is certain that Empress Xian is in the hall, but there are many rooms on the second floor, how to find out the room where Empress Xian is.
I have to set off in an hour, and the time is so short, I am afraid that I will not be able to find out the whereabouts of the virtuous queen, let alone rescue her.
Su Liruo was a little annoyed that if she had followed Li Zhenchen just now, she might still have a chance, but she shook her head helplessly as soon as she thought about it, Li Zhenchen was thoughtful, and it was not easy to follow him, I was afraid that he would be discovered before he found out the inside story. Su Liruo paced back and forth anxiously, it seemed that she had made a mistake this time, she didn't even see the face of the virtuous queen, but put herself in.
She touched her belt, her heart settled down a little, even if she couldn't save the virtuous queen, relying on the non-entropy sword, she should have no problem getting out.
Time passed little by little, Su Liruo was always uneasy in her heart, and she wanted to reach out and open the door several times, but she endured it.
Just when she was unsettled, there was a commotion outside, and the sound of fighting with weapons between them. Su Liruo was stunned, so she hurriedly opened the door, and before she stepped out of the threshold, the figure in front of her flashed, she couldn't help but staggered back, and looked at it: It turned out to be Li Zhenchen!
"You stay here, don't go out!" Li Zhenchen flashed into the room, and said in a hurried tone: "The sword has no eyes, don't hurt it."
"What's going on?" Su Liruo stood firm and asked hurriedly.
"Someone was following, and the officers and soldiers surrounded the hall." Li Zhenchen said in a deep voice: "I didn't expect Li Moxiao to find out that Empress Xian was missing so soon!"
"That's... Are we gone? Su Liruo was shocked, they saw each other, I don't know how fierce the fight will be? She was secretly worried in her heart, and blurted out in a hurry. As soon as the words came out, she was stunned, a little dazed, I don't know if she was worried that Li Moxiao would not be able to save Empress Xian? Or are you worried that Li Zhenchen's life is at stake and he can't leave?
Li Zhenchen stared at her fixedly, a warm current surged in his heart, and said gently: "Don't worry, we are leaving, there is a secret passage in the room." It's justβ" He paused, his eyes deep, a little hesitant. "I can't do it without those brothers... Let's talk about it when the time comes! β
Su Liruo's heart moved, and asked, "Don't you have a virtuous queen in your hands?"
"She..."Li Zhenchen hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm weak, I'm afraid I can't take it away!" said, with a solemn face, she told Su Liruo to stay in the room and not to go out, if she didn't go out, outsiders wouldn't be able to enter.
"What about you?" Su Liruo listened to him, thinking in his heart that this room should have a mechanism, including the secret passage he said.
"I'll go see the virtuous queen!" Li Zhenchen leaned sideways and glanced at the fierce fighting downstairs.
"I'll go with you." Su Liruo's mind flashed in the flash, and he hurriedly said, "I'm scared to stay in the room alone..."
