Chapter 44: Assassination (2)
The flow of people on the street suddenly began to surge on a large scale, and everyone ran in the direction of the street, Su Yi looked at the crowd in surprise and said, "What's going on?" ”
"Just check it out." Hongli said, and after speaking, he walked to the street, and Su Yi had to follow.
When I got closer, I realized that the float that greeted the god of flowers had arrived.
The lineup of the flower team is huge, there are four men in green shirts on the left and right in front of the head, and there are two women in goose yellow clothes in front of the car, a line of six people each has a flower basket in their hands, and the petals in each basket are swayed and raised in each row, the float is carved with a glazed top top, there are no wooden boards on all sides, only a thin smoke gauze curtain is used, the gauze curtain is a shallow goose yellow, hung up with a jade hook, a huge flower cluster is hung at each of the four corners, all are jasmine patterns, and the slender and long tassels hang down from the corner, After the wind blows, there is quite a bit of Tingyu standing, fluttering peerless, a woman sits in the center of the float, wearing a light yellow shirt, combing a girl's unique green cloud bun on her head, a little red in the center of her eyebrows, a moth eyebrows, lips like Zhu Dan, skin like coagulation, a shallow smile, slender hands are lightly raised, and a different kind of charm and touching are shown between gestures, Su Yi can't help but sigh: "What a beauty." ”
Hongli shook his head and said, "It's not as good as a wind in the clouds." ”
Su Yi heard the meaning of his words and couldn't help but be a little ashamed, the float slowly came this way, the surrounding crowd suddenly began to make noise, all rushed forward, Hongli hurriedly grabbed Su Yi's shoulders to protect her, in case of pedestrians' collisions, in a trance, suddenly heard a few screams from the crowd, and saw a few people in black rushing towards the float, the beauty on the car was frightened, and shouted for help, the crowd began to commotion, and the scene became more chaotic for a while.
Xu Zhenhai and Wu Shulai were already following the emperor from a distance, and when they saw this situation, they hurriedly rushed over to protect the emperor, and Hongli saw that Su Yi looked at the woman on the float worriedly and asked Xu Zhenhai to go to save people.
Xu Zhenhai is a martial arts champion, kung fu is excellent, but a few times the woman flew down from the float, a few people in black saw that Xu Zhenhai saved the woman and began to turn to attack Hongli a few people, a group of four, Hongli is both civil and military, Xu Zhenhai and kung fu is excellent, but Su Yi is a woman, Wu Shulai and no martial arts, the fight Hongli has to protect Su Yi from harm and prevent the flower god from being robbed, gradually a little difficult.
Wu Shulai pulled Su Yi and the god of flowers to hide aside, the god of flowers looked frightened and depressed, but Su Yi's eyes were tightly locked on the emperor's figure, seeing a man in black was holding a sword to stab at the emperor, Su Yi couldn't hold back anymore and rushed up, blocking in front of Hongli with his body, Hongli only felt a shadow pounce in front of him, the familiar smell made him suddenly shocked, saw the galloping sword hurriedly raised his sword to block it, and flew up the sword in his hand to stab the man in black in the abdomen, the man in black fell to the ground in pain, Hongli made light efforts and took Su Yi to Wu Shu to avoid under the big tree, and put down Su Yi and couldn't help but blame, "You really don't want to die!" ”
Su Yi came back to her senses at this time, but her body trembled involuntarily, what did she do just now? What was she thinking? His mind was blank, and seeing the emperor's gloomy face, Fang realized that it was terrible just now, if it was ...... In case of...... She didn't dare to imagine it anymore, shook her head, and raised her eyes to see that the emperor's face was getting more and more ugly, his face was bloodless, white as paper, and the sword in his hand also fell to the ground, and suddenly Wu Shulai shouted, "Your Majesty! Only then did she find that his chest was already bright red, revealing the tip of a dagger, his body began to shake, and finally leaned forward, Su Yi hurriedly caught him, only then did she see a cold flower god, with a bloodthirsty sneer on the corner of her lips, Su Yi's eyes widened in disbelief, and muttered, "Why?" ”
Wu Shulai shouted urgently, "Help! Xu Zhenhai! ”
The flower god raised the dagger again and waved it, and Su Yi stood in front of Hongli and said in a condensed voice, "What the hell are you doing?" ”
The god of flowers did not answer, only waved his hand and slashed at Su Yi's body, Hongli hurriedly stretched out his arm to block it, and the sword was cut on his arm, perhaps because Wu Shulai was pulling her behind him, the sword cut was not deep and only slightly oozing blood, Su Yi was already shocked, and shouted astringently, "Your Majesty ......"
At this time, other people also rushed over when they heard the news, Gu Yanzhao flew over and fought with the god of flowers, the god of flowers looked like a beautiful and weak woman, who knew that the kung fu was excellent, Hongday and Ji Huang also fought with the group of people in black, Qin Han hurriedly led the accompanying imperial doctor to rush over, inspect the emperor's injuries, the emperor's wounds have two places, one is in the arm, but that one is not in the way, but the one on the chest, the dagger penetrated his body, fortunately it did not pierce the heart, but it kept bleeding and needed to be dealt with urgently, Wu Shulai and the others hurriedly carried the emperor back to the inn. After tossing and turning for a long time, the emperor's wound stopped bleeding, but the person was unconscious, Wu Shulai was annoyed and blamed himself, Su Yi also had palpitations, thinking of Fang Cai's situation, his body still couldn't help trembling, Gu Yanzhao and Hongtian returned to the inn at this time, and when they saw the emperor lying on the bed, they asked, "How is the emperor?" ”
Imperial Physician Zhang hurriedly stepped forward and replied, "The wound did not hit the vital point, but it was extremely deep, and I lost too much blood, I am afraid it will ......."
Hongyang stepped forward and grabbed the placket of Imperial Physician Zhang's clothes, and said coldly, "I'm afraid of what? ”
Imperial Physician Zhang hurriedly trembled and said, "Lord Wang doesn't have to worry, Long Live Lord has good body and bones, as long as he takes good care, he should be able to wake up tomorrow." ”
Hongtian breathed a sigh of relief and let go of him, Imperial Doctor Zhang wiped the sweat beads on his forehead with his sleeve, but his heart began to worry faintly, Hongday turned around and saw Su Yi standing beside the bed with a look of distraction, so he approached and asked, "Are you okay?" ”
Su Yi looked up at him, and shook his head again, Hongyang wanted to say anything more, but because everyone was there, he didn't say much, so he just said: "Just let Xue Yan serve here, and everyone else should go back to rest." ”
The others walked out of the house one after another, and Hongday said to Wu Shu, "There is Lao Wu's father-in-law." ”
Wu Shulai bowed and said, "This is the duty of a slave. ”
Hongyang bowed his head and left the house.
"Suyi...... Su Yi ...... "Qiu Ruo called a few times, and when she saw Su Yi looking like she was out of the world, she gently touched her with her elbow, but she fell back weakly, Gu Yanzhao hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her body, and when she stood firm, he took a step back, and asked worriedly, "What's wrong with you?" ”
Su Yi's gaze became slightly focused, and she murmured, "I'm so scared of ......"
Gu Yanzhao couldn't help but feel distressed, the bloody scene just now really shouldn't have been experienced by a weak woman like her, a trace of remorse arose in his heart, he shouldn't have left, he should have been following her and protecting her, his voice was also a little painful, and he said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry......"
Su Yi looked at him in a daze, how long had she not looked at him so carefully, so long that even she couldn't remember, he was still so kind, he would blame himself for her little pain, his eyebrows were frowned, his lips were pursed into a straight line, she wanted to raise her hand to smooth his brows, but after all, she just helplessly opened her lips to show a comforting smile, silent.
It turned out that Imperial Doctor Zhang's worries were unnecessary, Hongli woke up on the morning of the second day, Su Yi was sitting on the edge of the bed and took a handkerchief to wipe Hongli's hands, and suddenly the hand held her hand hard, Su Yi looked back in surprise and found that the emperor was looking at her steadily, his eyes were clear and bright, without a trace of haze, and he was overjoyed, "Emperor? ”
Hongli pursed his lips and smiled slightly, hesitated for a moment before asking, "You were frightened yesterday, right?" Is it okay to have no rest at night? Why are dark circles so heavy? But the voice was weak.
"Long live the Lord wakes up, and the minions are no longer worried. The slave went to ask Imperial Doctor Zhang. As he spoke, he wanted to get up, but the emperor pulled her into his arms one by one, Su Yi supported his body, looked at him in fear, and Hongli said word by word, "Why are you so stupid?" At the moment of life and death, you rushed to me without even caring for your life, do you really want to die? ”
He was really afraid, the scene at that time still made him feel cold down his spine when he thought about it now, if he couldn't resist it, it would really be a jade burn, and heaven and man would be separated forever. He thought it was good to see her every day like this, she didn't have him in her heart, she rejected his wishes, and he had thought about accepting her as a concubine desperately, but he was afraid that she would hate him, and he felt scared when he thought that she might hate him, so he chose to look at everything and not care. Sometimes the more you care about something, then it will become your weakness, and the slightest disturbance may hurt you, if you don't want to get hurt, then you can only pretend to be indifferent and don't care.
But now, she is willing to die for him, how can she make him not care? How to tell him to hide his depression?
"You are the king of a country, you can't do anything." Su Yi said softly.
The air around her gradually condensed into ice, and she obviously felt Hongli's arm around her loosen, Su Yi hurriedly stood up and said crampedly, "The slave will go and serve you medicine." ”
Hongli looked at her back in a daze, was he just an emperor in her heart?
The emperor's injury ended their trip, and they were too seriously injured to leave for the palace, so they had to stay in Jinling. Hongday went to the Jinling Mansion and ordered the blockade of Jinling City, the black-clothed people died and fled, only caught the flower god, but the woman was extremely tenacious, no matter how Rao tortured her to extract a confession, she didn't say a word, Hongday was helpless, assassinating the emperor was a capital crime, and the woman was sentenced to death according to the law. Gu Yanzhao and Xu Zhenhai were ordered to track down the whereabouts of the black-clothed people, and the case was finally found out after two days of investigation.
It turned out that this group of black-clothed people was a folk cult organization-Bailimen.
The god of flowers is also a disciple of the White Pear Gate, they got the news a few days ago that the emperor went out to Jinling, but they have not found the emperor's whereabouts, if Hongli and others can leave early, they will not cause such a thing, but because they stayed for a few days because of the Flower God Festival, they made the White Pear Gate have more time to find out the whereabouts of the emperor, so they staged a good show of the black-clothed man hijacking the God of Flowers on the day of the Flower God Festival, in fact, it is just to cover people's eyes and ears, and it is intended for the emperor.
