Chapter 12: Enmity and Enmity Stain the Dust of Beijing (1)
Imperial Palace View and Hall
Today is Concubine Yao's birthday, and the treasures that Lizheng Si arranged for tribute from all over the country should be prepared early.
At noon, the emperor took Concubine Yao to complete the sacrifice and came to Jinghe Palace.
Envoys at all levels are led by internal officials to enter the main hall, lined up on both sides of the main hall, and stand with their heads bowed.
The inner official was dressed upright, and he went to the main hall to proclaim:
"Taizhou offers a pair of double Bi Fu Lu Shou peach jade cups, twelve corals, Ganzhou offers a purple jade screen, ten pearls, Zhongqing presents neon brocade satin "Eight Blessings and Hundred Sons" a total of four volumes, an ancient Ruiyan sword, Yicheng presents "Immeasurable Prajna Heart Sutra" 16 volumes, jade carving ten ......"
One of the envoys quietly stared at the people in the main hall, and she tried her best to restrain the anger and hatred in her heart, and admonished herself to be calm and calm! When his eyes turned to the right seat, he was shocked, and the person who was called Concubine Yao was ...... I am green Shu.
"Long live the emperor! I wish Concubine Yao a thousand years of life! ”
"Concubine Ai's birthday, I want to celebrate for you, Concubine Ai is happy!"
The emperor is obviously in a good mood.
"Emperor Xie raises love! The concubine was overjoyed! ”
The people on the throne are bejeweled, graceful and luxurious, and smiling.
"Stand down." The emperor's gaze never took half a minute off Concubine Yao's face.
The people exited the main hall one by one.
Is she still the Wu Lushu she knows, Mo Xie Takili's heart felt cold and heartbroken.
Night Ylang Temple
Mo Xie Takili changed into a maid's costume and went to the Yilan Hall with a group of maids in shifts, and the emperor stayed in the Yilan Hall tonight, which is the best opportunity.
Behind the colorful screen, the emperor and Concubine Yao were drinking.
"Since Concubine Ai came to me, I am very relieved."
"Your Majesty, all over the world, whether it is Kyoto, the Central Plains, or Saiwai, all bow down to you, what else do you have to worry about? You will use your majesty to shock the Quartet and overlook the world! Whoever dares to disobey shall be dealt with like an ant. ”
Wu Lushu's tone is no longer half as soft and kind as it used to be, and some are just ruthless.
"With the concubine by my side, I don't have to worry about the world being one! I love to hear you. The emperor's eyes were slightly drunk.
"Your Majesty, I don't have any talent, but I just put forward some small opinions, all out of love for you, everything is not the emperor's strategy to benefit, the power of the king!"
"Aifei is too modest, if it weren't for the people from the rivers and lakes such as the three ghosts of Li, I would have almost suffered a big loss in Laishan Temple."
When the emperor mentioned Laishan Temple, he still had palpitations.
"That's nothing away from the three ghosts, as long as the emperor trusts it, the concubines still have the finale and don't appear." Concubine Yao has delicate eyes.
"Oh, the concubine can be a big responsibility!" The emperor is happy.
"Your Majesty, I heard that King Yan has returned to the court?" Concubine Yao was tempted.
"Don't mention my younger brother, he tried his best to defend the remnants of the Tianxia Sect when he came to the Shan Temple to fight, and I really couldn't understand him more and more." The emperor lowered his glass heavily.
"The emperor is a prince who values love and righteousness, and he can't bear to blame the king of Yan, but he doesn't care about the emperor's safety more and more, the emperor and the remnants of the group will have a war sooner or later, which side will he be on when the time comes?" Concubine Yao looked at the emperor quietly.
"Think about it." These words hit the emperor's heart.
"The rule of eating the king, you can't worry about the king, it's for disloyalty, it's for treachery, it doesn't distinguish between black and white, it's for injustice, and the concubines are very worried about the emperor's safety."
Concubine Yao said that she wanted to put the king in a predicament.
"What do you mean by loving the concubine?" The emperor's eyebrows are deeply locked.
"The king of the banquet has a heavy army, if he turns against him one day......" Concubine Yao pretended to be frightened.
"Impossible, I have had a deep relationship with King Yan since childhood, and I still know his character."
"Your Majesty, King Yan has a very high prestige in the army, and he is famous in the rivers and lakes, people will change, what does he think now, how does the emperor understand it? Concubines are also worried about you all day long. ”
"Concubine Yao, I know your mind."
Her words had obviously fallen on the emperor's heart.
"Sure enough, it's a companion like a tiger." Mo Xie Takili stood outside the screen, panicked when she heard it, she covered her veil, and her long sword came out of the sheath to split the screen, and went straight to the emperor, "The dog emperor is here to pay for his life!" ”
The screen and wooden table in front of him cracked in response, and Wu Lushu drew his sword and fought back as soon as possible.
"Who's coming?" The emperor took a few steps back in panic and shouted.
"Dare to assassinate the emperor! Who are you? Wu Lu Shu snorted coldly.
"If there is no way, everyone will be punished." Mo Xie Taki's glass jumped up, and the whirling long sword broke through the air.
Wu Lushu was shocked in his heart:
"Floating Swordsmanship"! Could it really be the Tianxia faction...... She tried her best to meet the "moon killing" with one move, the sword qi was opposed, the furnishings in the house were all cracked, and the two were fighting fiercely.
"Someone! Escort. The emperor shouted.
Mo Xie Takili took advantage of the situation to turn the sword edge, with the force of his left wrist against the hilt of the sword straight to break the blade of Wu Lu Shu, and then stabbed the emperor, seeing that the blade was only a few feet away, the emperor was so shocked that he dodged left and right.
Mo Xie Longli thought back to all kinds of sword training in the past, and he had never seen the other party's moves, but Mo Xie Tian seemed to mention it when talking to himself. This must be Qianzhu Mountain's "Sword of the World", and I think that Wu Muxiang has passed on the secret book of Zhenshan to Wu Lushu.
Seeing the Praetorian Guards rushing in, Mo Xie Takiri turned around and led Wu Lu Shu to fly out of the eaves and fight on the roof.
"Mo Xie Takili, why did you send it to the door to find death by yourself!"
Wu Lu Shu restrained Mo Xie Takili's sword, and his tone was arrogant.
"How did you become the person you are now?"
Mo Xie Takili only had heartache left, and the chill was close to the other party's eyes.
"What should I be, pitiful, abandoned? After being separated for so long, your kung fu has not improved at all, but the injury has not healed yet! ”
Wu Lu Shu knew that Mo Xie Takiri did not use all his strength to deliberately provoke her.
"The matter of coming to the temple is really related to you." Mo Xie Takili stared at the unfamiliar face in front of him, "The matter between you and the second brother is not unturned. ”
"Why bother!" Wu Lushu smiled in the cold wind, "Yesterday I am dead, today I am still alive." When she said this, her tone was resolute.
"Why?"
Mo Xie Takiri still couldn't believe that the changes before and after a person would be so earth-shaking.
"Why, I want you all to die, die miserably, don't you want revenge! Well, I can do it for you. ”
Wu Lushu's voice was very low, but it was full of full hatred.
"Green Shu, the cliff stops, and the back is the shore. Do you think what your father did was right? ”
Mo Xie Takili was overwhelmed with grief, and he couldn't tell whether it was for himself or for me.
"Does it matter what is right or wrong? If you don't kill me today, then I'll kill you ---! ”
My green sword is like rain, and it is approaching step by step.
The two fought from the east hall to the west hall, and before they knew it, they had dozens of rounds, and it was difficult to distinguish the winner from the loser.
Mo Xie Takili saw that Wu Lushu was in a crazy mood, and there were more and more Praetorian Guards under the corridor, so this was not a long-term solution. She turned around to Wu Lushu's side, grabbed her sword, and carried her to fly over the high wall.
"Chase! Chase me back! Life or death! "The emperor was angry.
Mo Xie Takiri stopped at the east corner of the city wall, put down his sword, and stared at the other party:
"Tell me, what happened to you?"
Wu Lu Shu did not relent, turned around and palmed, and used all his strength, Mo Ye Lu Li couldn't dodge and could only be hard connected, Ling Wei's palm wind held each other, neither of them could take advantage, Wu Lu Shu spat blood, Mo Ye Lu Li was also injured by the other party's internal force.
"At this moment, I wonder how many people will be heartbroken and miserable if you die! Just think about it and I'm happy. ”
Wu Lushu had no intention of withdrawing his palm, and smiled suddenly.
"I'll take you away, get out of here, I don't believe this is the you I know."
Mo Xie Takiri guessed that Wu Lushu must have suffered a lot of grievances and pains, and he must make this last struggle.
"Don't think! You have a good look at me in front of you, this is the real me, I want to see your pain, see you defeat one by one, and fight with you endlessly. ”
But Wu Lushu is not good at strength, her mood swings and breath are chaotic, and her breath is short, so she can only forcibly retreat.
After the two withdrew their palms, they spit out several mouthfuls of blood, one of them was injured, and a new injury affected the old disease, and they both fell to the side.
The two of them used to stay overnight and talk about their hearts, and they walked forward hand in danger, which is commendable! Now, a few steps away, it is like fire and water, like thousands of miles away.
"If you don't kill me today, you will regret it!"
Wu Lu Shu got up slowly, held the sword and faced it, roaring angrily, the sharp murderous aura surrounded the whole side, and her sparing and angry aura made Mo Xie Takili suddenly feel difficult to breathe.
After learning from the pain, Mo Xie Takili waved his sword and shouted with all his might:
"There is no love and hate for no reason in this world, have you ever thought about why your brother hates you so much, how deep the love is, how much hatred there is, don't you understand?"
Mo Xie Takili's sword aura was revealed, and she shook Wu Lu Shu a few steps away, and fell in response, and she herself was also exhausted by internal strength, her heart was haggard, crumbling, and tears were in her eyelashes.
Wu Lu Shu trembled and stood up:
"From the day he gave up on me, I was no longer me! If I order the archers to fire today, can you escape, let you go, and you and I will make a break with the past relationship, and see you again one day, and I will make you doomed. ”
After saying that, he didn't turn back and staggered into the city......
Watching Wu Lushu stumble away, Mo Xie Takili couldn't use the strength he had to reinforce, so he could only rest in place with all the tremors, and in the fog, Wu Lushu's back gradually blurred in the dark night.
Compared with this failed operation, what made her even more sad was Wu Lushu! Grievances and hatreds, when is it! Since deciding to take revenge, hatred is like a spell, sweeping everyone together, covered with poisonous gunsmoke, tearing and crushing, throwing into the abyss, and finally all of them will be wiped out!
Mo Xie Takiri helplessly shed tears and completely heartache!
About a quarter of an hour later, a sudden breath that suddenly flowed through her body at the critical moment just now calmed down a little, she wiped the blood stains from the corners of her mouth, slowly got up, and still walked towards the city.
Maybe what awaits her is the Longtan Tiger's Den, full of thorns, and it is unknown whether it is the abyss of hell, but the road is already under her feet.
In the morning light, a carriage galloped by.
Qing Congque opened his loose eyes:
"Where are we?"
The coachman was a dignified old man with a deep voice:
"Girl, now that you've reached the realm of Dazhi Mountain, it seems that I can send you at noon."
"It's going so fast! Your old man, this is Pegasus. ”
Qing Congque frowned.
"The girl laughed, do you want us to arrive as soon as possible or as slowly as possible?"
The old man asked with a smile.
"Well, I'd like your carriage to be slower."
Qing Congque sighed lightly.
"Then I can't lose faith in the girl who entrusted you to me, the old man has been driving a car all his life, although he has been doing the same little thing all his life, but he also strives to be perfect."
The old man stroked his beard with a smile.
Qing Congque nodded and approved:
"Takiri is really as wise as a torch! Uncle, do you know where that girl went after she entrusted me to you. ”
"I don't know." The old man shook his head.
"How would you feel if I told you that she had gone to a place of great danger, that her life was almost at stake, and that she had entrusted me to you so as not to trouble me?"
"There's such a thing!" The old man drank the horse moving forward, "Then what is the relationship between the two of you?" ”
"True friends, life and death are entrusted."
Qing Congque's eyes were clear and his smile was calm.
The old man fell into deep thought, and for a moment:
"You should be with her, even if it's just to admonish her in danger. I see, I'll send you back. ”
"Thank you, uncle, but now we are afraid that it is too late for us to rush back, can you do something for me?"
Although Qing Congque was awake and could speak, his whole body was still tired and weak.
"I hope the old man's mistake can be reversed, girl, please speak." The old man bluntly said that he was worried in his heart.
"Please help me set off this firework immediately, and someone will come to pick me up."
Qing took out a pocket firework from Que and handed it out.
The old man took the fireworks:
"Without further ado, I'll go."
"Thank you."
Qing Congque finally showed a loose smile.
The old man took out a jade-colored magnolia sword spike:
"This sword spike is the reward given by that girl, and I said it was too expensive at the time, but she insisted, saying that as long as you are sent to Dazhi Mountain safely and quickly, everything is worth it. Now you are only thinking about her, it can be seen that you have a great friendship, and I can't accept it, so you can return it for me. ”
Qing took the sword spike from the old man's hand, looked at it carefully, and saw a double-sided magnolia the size of a copper coin was exquisitely clear and lifelike.
She wrapped it in a handkerchief, and then took out a moire-patterned token and handed it to the old man.
"Uncle, you are really a rare good person, in this troubled world, my friends and I are so fortunate to meet you! Please accept this cloud lock order, if you encounter any difficulties in the future, please be sure to go to Luoxue Pavilion, Qing Congque will definitely go all out. ”
"That's it, return one thing and get another, the old man is destined to gain something today. Ha ha! ”
The old man took the order and laughed heartily.
Less than a quarter of an hour after the fireworks were set off, the wind in the forest swept the leaves, fluttering and flying, the green clouds came out of the show, and a white shadow slowly fell in front of the carriage.
This person is none other than Du Hanyi.
"Why did you get smoked?"
Du Han frowned, and stepped forward to ask.
"It's Takiri, take me to Dadu quickly, Takiri wants to assassinate the emperor alone."
Seeing Du Hanyi, Qing Congque said anxiously.
"Ahh Du Han was shocked, this woman was really bold, but she had the style of a second junior brother.
Du Han picked up Qing and disappeared into the misty morning fog.
The old man looked up into the distance, smiled and nodded.
Dadu Banquet Palace
Zhu Dingfei put down the report in his hand, solemnly distracted, and there seemed to be hesitation between his eyebrows.
At this time, Tianxin came quickly, and his expression was anxious:
"Lord, two hours ago, an assassin sneaked into the Yilan Hall to assassinate the emperor, the emperor was unharmed, Concubine Yao and the person who came made a move."
"Have you found out?"
Zhu Dingfei's voice was like a thousand miles of ice lake, cold and lifeless.
"The person who came was masked, but when Concubine Yao was fighting with her, we heard that Concubine Yao called her Mo Xie Takili, it was --- Weiyu." Tianxin is silent.
Zhu Dingfei raised his head suddenly, and everything was empty:
"How is she?"
"An hour ago, the emperor urgently summoned Xue, and the two imperial doctors of Liang entered the palace, saying that Concubine Yao was seriously injured, and she had already practiced "The Sword of the Immortal", and it was expected that Miss Weiyu was not lightly injured." Tianxin replied, seeing that Zhu Dingfei's face was solemn, but he was afraid that he would miss the opportunity and had to report it to the truth, "Fortunately, Miss Weiyu did not fall into the hands of the Praetorian Guards. ”
"Ordered most of the secret sentinels to be dispatched to find their whereabouts."
Zhu Dingfei only said coldly, but he didn't know that his heart was already in a mess.
"Command." Tianxin quickly retreated.
"Ao Piao." He was still not at ease, so he called people outside the door to come in, "Recently, we have been keeping an eye on all the forces in the capital and strictly guarding against changes." ”
"Understand, lord, are you going out at this hour?"
Seeing Zhu Dingfei change clothes, Ao Piao was slightly surprised and followed.
"So uneasy."
Zhu Dingfei's face was full of worry and anxiety, and he couldn't hide it.
Ao Piao was surprised that Zhu Dingfei was in chaos as soon as he encountered the relevant Weiyu, he decided that he had always been calm and determined, free and easy, meticulous in everything, and the prince who had no last resort was a nemesis! I just don't know if such an encounter is auspicious or evil!
Inkstone is not inkstone
Bai Mingruo hurried and hurried, and when he arrived at the inkstone painting boat, he was still a step late.
"Did Senior Brother Mu and Senior Brother Wen Xuan go to Laishan Temple? I still haven't caught up......," she chagrined.
"Senior Sister Bai Ming, what happened?"
Seeing her anxious look, Mo Xie Pingwei hurriedly asked.
"My father went back, and finally found the best friend of Uncle Mo in Huzhou--- Mr. Situ Zhan, who liked to travel all over the world, and lived in the Pavilion of Beiyou Dongtian all the year round, and was the only one who had seen the "Nuoyin Sword Book". He recalled that there were indeed two code words in the sword spectrum, which made him particularly attention, and he still remembers it vividly, one is 'Takili Rushu', and the other is 'Chunyuan picks the stars auspiciously, leaving it to return to Hengyi'. ”
Bai Mingruo's eyebrows tightened.
"Sister Ruoxu, how can there be two code words? What do you mean? ”
Mo Xie Yunshu was puzzled.
"The first sentence is about Senior Sister Takili, and the other sentence is about the identity of the prince, right?"
Jin Ha's voice was calm and empty.
"Well, my father asked me to tell you that the last emperor's widow is Senior Brother Mu."
Bai Mingruo's words were like a thunderclap.
"It's not good, I just received a report this morning, Senior Brother Mu and Wen Xuan received a report on the way to Laishan Temple, Takiri appeared in Dadu, so they changed their route to Dadu."
Mo Xie Pingwei was shocked and more inexplicably worried.
"Are you afraid that the news of Mr. White has leaked."
That's what Jin He is worried about.
"Yes! Most of them not only have faint kings and dog thieves competitions, but also a banquet king! Mo Xie Pingwei's high tension was also rendered to everyone.
