Chapter 39: What Happened in the Weiyang Palace That Night
Changshu stood outside the village, watching the people of the Inviting Moon Villa quickly rush to Rizhao Ridge, seeing that they were about to hit the outside of the village, just in case, Changshu asked Yao Hua to take someone to help them secretly, and be sure to lay Qingfeng Village tonight.
She herself quietly sneaked into the stockade and easily found the location where the county lord of Qingping was imprisoned.
The guard was knocked out with ease, and Changshu's figure was like a ghost in the dark night, and she came to the room where the county lord of Qingping was locked up silently.
A figure crossed from the darkness, and the man turned his head instantly, and said vigilantly: "What person?" ”
Only then did he realize that the noisy sounds in the stockade had disappeared at some point, replaced by the sound of fighting that was getting closer and closer, and even the people guarding outside the room had long since stopped moving.
The man's face turned cold, and he turned around sharply and walked outside.
"Three masters?"
The man had a cold face: "Something happened." ”
Before he could walk out, under the dim light, a black figure flashed away, and only two pops were heard, and two figures had fallen in the room.
The county lord of Qingping stared at the scene in front of him with wide eyes, and in his eyes he couldn't believe it, but also had some hope.
Someone came to her rescue?
Or has someone come to suppress the bandits?
Whatever the case may be, she is happy.
The man turned around abruptly and shouted coldly, "What person? Get the hell out of here! ”
"Sneaky, have the ability to get out of here."
A flash of cold light.
The man's conditioned reflex sword rung, the sound of swords colliding clearly came, the man was forced to retreat again and again by this force, looking at the person wrapped in a black cloak in front of him, feeling the force under the blow just now, only to feel that his hand holding the sword was trembling uncontrollably.
There was a touch of horror in the man's eyes, and after weighing the pros and cons, he knew that he was not an opponent, so he turned around and fled without hesitation.
The county lord of Qingping finally breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly relaxed, and said like she had survived the disaster: "Thank you, Your Excellency, for saving me." ”
The black-clothed figure slowly turned around, under the wide hood, revealing a pointed chin and moist red lips, and her fair skin was still as bright and immaculate as the moon under the not-so-bright light, even if it was just a little bit, it was enough for the county lord of Qingping to understand that the person who saved her was a girl.
Changshu slowly took off her hood, revealing her tightly covered body by the cloak, and under the suddenly frightened gaze of the woman opposite, she whispered: "Thank you, but you don't have to, after all...... Hongu is not here to save you. ”
Changshu's eyes fell on her, looking at her hands that had been untied, as well as her feet that were still tied, and chuckled: "Lord Qingping, don't come to harm?" ”
The county lord of Qingping's body began to tremble uncontrollably, and when she didn't realize it, her expression was more frightened than facing those mountain bandits, and even her voice trembled: "Princess...... Her Royal Highness the Princess......"
Changshu looked at her quietly, her eyes turned slightly, and there was a slight light in her eyes: "If you think it carefully, the county lord of Qingping is still the elder of this palace, how can he face this palace with such an expression?" ”
The county lord of Qingping pursed his lips, lowered his head and was silent for a long time when he heard her words, and said with fear: "The princess has a noble status, how could she come all the way to the border?" ”
Changshu walked slowly in front of her, stretched out her foot and lifted her chin to force her to look up, it was obviously such an insulting action, but she looked so deserved.
Changshu's voice was indifferent: "The county lord is so afraid of this palace, he must know why this palace is here." ”
It is rumored in the palace that Princess Chenhuan has the talent of the world, she is the deepest strategist hidden by His Royal Highness the Prince's side, and she holds the sharpest knife of His Royal Highness the Prince, but she herself does not look like a person who is contaminated with darkness at all.
Everyone knows that Her Royal Highness the princess is kind-hearted, gentle and considerate, she is very popular in the palace, she never easily punishes people, no matter who she is, she is gentle like water, and she is very good at speaking.
But the county lord of Qingping has seen her deal with the traitors around the prince, and she has seen the unknown side of her by the prince's side, escorting the prince and the queen.
This princess is not as gentle and harmless as others think.
She didn't think that Princess Chenhuan appeared here to save her, the county lord of Qingping pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "Courtier...... I don't understand what Her Royal Highness the princess means. ”
Changshu glanced at her carefully, took two steps back, and looked at her condescendingly: "It's okay if you don't understand, this palace can remind you." ”
"When the queen mother went, the palace was watching in the Weiyang Palace, and when the crown prince and brother went, the palace also happened to be there."
When the county lord of Qingping heard this, he looked up at her violently.
Changshu raised her lips: "After the queen mother went, the palace was devastated, and she went to the east palace of the crown prince and brother in a heartbroken state, and rested there that night. ”
"The palace originally thought that in the future, only the palace and the crown prince and brother would support each other, but they didn't want anyone to leave this thought to the palace, and a fire directly burned the east palace clean."
Changshu looked at her and smiled lightly: "This palace still remembers that those people who broke into the East Palace that night kept saying that the crown prince and the royal brother colluded with the Wen family and conspired against each other. ”
Looking at the face of the county lord of Qingping, Changshu continued: "This palace also remembers that Concubine Rong sent a pot of poisonous wine to her mother, and kept saying that it was the grace of her father, and the county lord was with Concubine Rong at that time. ”
"What did the queen mother do, so that her father wanted to get rid of her, and even let Concubine Rong pass on the decree and let her trample the queen mother into the mud."
"Why didn't the queen mother even say a word of justification, just let Bengong live well?"
The county lord of Qingping shook his head violently: "I don't know." ”
Changshu leaned over and pinched her chin, with great force in her hand, almost crushing her jaw bone alive, and her tone was cold in every word: "You don't know? ”
"You don't know you're following Concubine Rong? Don't you know that you said that the queen mother should die with her will? ”
"You don't know, you will say that the father can't tolerate her, and the royal family can't tolerate her? Would you say that she was a stain on her father, that she was unworthy of the throne and that she was not worthy of being the mother of a country? ”
"That's what you say, don't you know?"
The tears of pain of the county lord of Qingping were about to come out, and he unconsciously grabbed her hand in extreme pain and wanted her to let go, but he could not shake Changshu's strength: "Don't say that this palace does not respect the elder, but this palace still wants to call you an aunt, if you tell this palace what happened in Weiyang Palace that day, how about this palace leave you a life?" ”
"Hengzhi is Qingfeng Village, a notorious bandit den in several border cities, even if you die here, it has nothing to do with this palace."
