Chapter 22 - Sword Light and Blood Shadow
If you want to talk about who has the most eyeliner in the palace, the emperor counts one, and the queen naturally counts one.
Not long after the emperor decided to go to Kunning Palace, she had already received the news.
And the emperor intended to let Sheng Erya and Shi Rong marry, and she naturally knew about it.
It's just that she's not prepared to interfere in the matter.
It is better for Shi Rong to become a colt than to become a henchman of other princes.
This is also a good way for him to protect himself in this troubled world.
Since she beat Erya to be sensible, the two of them looked at each other unpleasantly.
If it weren't for the emperor who had been protecting her, the queen would have been eager to directly uproot Na Sheng Erya.
This time the emperor came, she also wanted to probe the wind to see what the emperor had about the future crown prince.
The dragon of Shengming City had just arrived at the door of Kunning Palace, raised his eyebrows and looked at the bright palace lights, and suddenly didn't want to step in.
"Chen Cai, go back to Longxiao Palace, I'm tired."
He admits that he did it on purpose.
The whim of Fang in Yunxia Hall has now disappeared on this palace road, and it is better to go back to the palace to be quiet.
This oolong made Queen Zuo think more.
The emperor turned away, leaving Zuo lying on the soft collapse tossing and turning.
Xu is emperor wanted to make his plan come true quickly, and Qingyunshan and his party were scheduled for three days later.
These days, in addition to the daily routine inspection, Shi Yu is learning about the blessing ceremony at other times.
Of course, in addition to these, you also have to organize your mentality to deal with the princess who goes with you.
On the third day, the princess went to Qingyun Mountain Buddha Temple on behalf of the royal family to pray for the blessing of the court.
Originally, the queen mother was also going to go, but she was ill and couldn't travel far, so she could only take everyone with the princess.
Emperor Sheng Mingcheng personally sent the princess out of the palace gate to show his attention to this blessing.
even let his father-in-law Chen, who was serving him closely, accompany him to the left and right, which shows the emperor's intentions.
The group walked leisurely towards Qingyun Mountain.
Shi Yu rode a horse to open the way in front, and the sedan chair behind him was Sheng Erya.
As the car vibrate, through the curtain that moved with the wind, Sheng Erya kept looking at the back of the person in front of him.
It was the love of her heart, how could she not pay more attention to it?
Qingyun Mountain is outside the capital, and when it is in the capital, it is very stable all the way.
It's just that as soon as he got out of the city gate, Shi Yu noticed that something was wrong, on the mountain road that was about to reach Qingyun Mountain, it was too quiet on the road.
It was so quiet that you could only hear the footsteps of the crowd and the wheezing of the horses, and the rustling of the leaves all around.
Really.
Shi Yu's hunch was right, and he saw a movement in his ears, and then he pulled out his long sword and walked towards the carriage behind him.
Dingββ
There was a crisp sound of swords clashing.
Sheng Erya's heart was shocked, and then she lifted the curtain.
Seeing that resolute figure in military uniform, he arrived in front of the carriage, and it was a black-clothed and masked man who fought with him.
"Princess, no!"
Xiao Yu hurriedly pulled down the curtain.
"Protect Her Highness the Princess!"
Shi Yu's voice flashed.
The man in black came too quickly, and the soldiers around him were stunned, surround the carriage while dealing with the intrusion of the black-clothed people.
Although the man in black is good, he is still not as strong as Shi Yu's force.
After a few rounds, he was naturally defeated.
At the end of the final round, Shi Yu's long sword was directly on the neck of the man in black.
Looking at the soldiers around him, when he was fighting with the man in black, he attacked mercilessly, and there were dead and wounded everywhere.
He paused for a while, Shi Yu's heart sank, he didn't dare to kill...
Jincheng seemed to see his hesitation on the side, and kicked the man in black.
"Commander the word, keep the mouth alive!"
Jin Cheng turned to say and tied up the man directly.
There are not many people in black, and Shi Yu is easy to deal with.
With Jincheng's internal and external cooperation, he only had to be injured, and the rest was handed over to Jincheng.
The man in black was a group of ten people, six were killed and wounded, three were slightly injured, and one escaped.
After they were all arrested, Shi Yu frowned and said, "Take them back and interrogate them strictly!" β
The Privy Council has a special interrogation department, so they only arrest people, and the rest of the Privy Councils will naturally take over.
After everything was taken care of, Shi Yu knelt down and saluted towards the position of the carriage.
"Is Her Royal Highness the Princess okay? Wechen is guilty and frightens you. β
His voice was clear.
When Sheng Erya heard this, she directly pushed away the little jade who had been blocking in front of her.
As soon as he lifted the curtain, his eyes fell directly on the ground, and the intact person suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everything is fine, there is a time to rule."
She stabilized her mind and said, after all, she is a princess of a country, and in the face of such a situation, she naturally can't panic.
After Sheng Erya finished speaking, she sat back in the carriage and continued, "Go on." β
A group of people packed up and hit the road.
It's just that the commander of the time, who used to kill people without blinking, today keeps people under his command in front of everyone.
If this means that there is a need to keep a living mouth for interrogation, it is enough to keep one.
But this leaves so much left, it really doesn't look like his old style.
Xiang Yu, the deputy commander who accompanied him, was suddenly puzzled.
"Why does the Commander of Time leave so many alive mouths?"
He asked directly.
Shi Yu's heart was stunned, and if he really hesitated at that time, everyone saw it.
His mind moved, and then his eyes looked in the direction of the temple on Qingyun Mountain, and he arched his hand.
"Today is a trip to pray for the blessing of the country, the emperor's grace is vast, naturally you can't make a big move, how can you violate the blessing because of the sword light and blood."
He said as a matter of course, Xiang Buddha is the most invincible, everyone understands this principle, Xiang Yu nodded suddenly in understanding.
"The Commander has a point!"
When the people around him heard the reason, they were also convinced.
Jin Cheng smiled in his heart on the side, the commander of Shi Yu disguised as the prince of Shi Yu had more human touch than the previous cold-faced commander.
It can be said that he is brave and strategic, wise and brave.
Jin Cheng secretly thought that today's Shi Yu Gongzi, except for this act of not daring to kill, everything else is good.
As the commander of the Royal Forest Army, if you can't see the blood, wouldn't that be equivalent to a longbow without a feather sword.
This time I want to talk to Shi Yu Gongzi, Jincheng made a decision.
Gonggong Chen sat in the back of the princess's carriage, and he knew everything in his heart.
This time, he was impressed by Shi Rong, he only felt that he was stunned in the past, but now it seems that he still has a little bit of energy.
Shi Yu can be regarded as crooked this time.
But how can I be as lucky as I am today?
Shi Yu thought back that he couldn't beat anyone just now, but when the sword was on that person's neck, he really couldn't do it.
Having said that, he couldn't even see the slaughter of chickens and fish in the past, let alone the living people now.
Fang Cai looked at the man in black who was stabbed to death by the deputy commander with a sword on the road, and he couldn't help but feel palpitations.
The deputy commanders are all like this, and the former Shi Rong is known as the commander of Shura, isn't it even worse!
