Chapter 498: Returning to the East
Looking at Leng Yan's solemn face again, Deng Shi understood everything, and his face became even more ugly.
"Mrs. Wan—arrested?" She said tentatively.
"I was careless...... "If it weren't for me, my mother wouldn't have been cut off." ”
"Please Princess Anchen, save my mother!" He bowed down again, "Lin Jue will be repaid with death!" ”
Xie Shiyun rubbed the corners of her forehead, but her expression did not hesitate.
If something like this happens, it will be a lot of trouble, not to mention that it will also bring a lot of danger to his own people - but this is his mother.
If his mother could not be saved, according to the stubborn nature of the man in front of him, the original plan would definitely not be carried out.
If you pull the hair and move the whole body, things will go bad.
"Cold Rock." She lowered her eyes and said, "You take me to save Mrs. Wan." ”
She knew very well that Dong Linjue's current mood was really not suitable for rescue, so she had to go by herself.
"Okay." Leng Yan didn't say much, and immediately responded.
"Your Highness, but there are some things I have to say in advance." Xie Shiyun restrained her expression, "The two of us will do our best to rescue Mrs. Wan, but there is a case in everything, if you really make this eventuality, Your Highness must control your emotions." ”
To put it bluntly, this is a subtle hint.
It's not that Xie Shiyun is not at ease, but because even she can see that Dong Linjue's emotions are too extreme.
"Princess, don't worry." The latter took a deep breath at this time, "I will definitely pay attention to proportion, and I will not drag Her Royal Highness the princess back." ”
Seeing this, Xie Shiyun didn't say anything more, and nodded very concisely: "Leng Yan, let's go." ”
The sooner he left, the greater the hope of Mrs. Wan being rescued.
Under the cover of night, the two of them cautiously sneaked into the palace, groped for a few minutes, and found the place where Mrs. Wan was being held as quickly as possible.
Inside, there were bursts of muffled screams, and the smell of blood in the air filled the nostrils of the two.
Based on this voice alone, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of inhuman torture Mrs. Wan suffered inside.
"Cold Rock." Xie Shiyun suppressed his anger and called, "There are only two guards in front of the door, you should be able to settle it." Don't dwell on it, just leave if you save someone, I'm here to show you. ”
"Okay." Leng Yan didn't say much, and his voice was so thin that it was almost inaudible. Jumping over the grass and dealing with two guards with his skills, it was no problem.
With a "clang", the two fell down in response, and Leng Yan caught it in time, in case the sound of the two people landing attracted the patrolling guards.
After three times and five divided by two, the rope was untied, and Mrs. Wan was covered in blood, so miserable that she couldn't look like it, but she was admittedly still hanging.
"Let's go!" Seeing the two men come out, they were about to quietly return along the same path, but the silence of the night was broken by an exclamation.
"Hurry—stop them! They're going to rob people! ”
Xie Shiyun was already gritting her teeth in anger - she couldn't be more familiar with that voice, not to mention who else Gu Mianmian could have!
However, Dong Linjue didn't know her, and when he explained the cause and effect of the matter, he couldn't identify who the interceptor was—now it seems that there is only one explanation from the person in front of him.
The Imperial Forest Army rushed forward one after another, and before Xie Shiyun came back to his senses, the surrounding blood suddenly became thick, and bursts of screams were heard from time to time.
Leng Yan was a little overwhelmed.
It's okay to take Xie Shiyun alone, but if you add a Mrs. Wan on your back, for a long time, you can't help but lose some strength.
With the idea of a quick decision, he was hit with a sword on his back, blood suddenly splattered, and he bit his lower lip and swung the sword like rain, which actually stood out the obstacles.
- I know that I don't know if I don't look at it, Gu Mianmian's face is so angry that her face is blue.
The candles in the palace were rekindled, and the night was not peaceful.
"Ridiculous! It's ridiculous! Xie Yuan's eyes were red, and he trembled with anger in the face of the guard's report.
Obviously, he had already gone to bed, and Rao, like many people in the palace, was awakened again by this farce.
"Are you all rubbish!" His hands thumped hard and fell asleep, "The person who was just arrested today doesn't know how to guard against it?" With such a big Royal Forest Army, even a guard and two women who can't stand on the stage can't stop it! Rubbish! It's all rubbish! ”
The guard who reported trembled and did not dare to raise his head, for fear that his remark would annoy His Highness.
"Since that's the case......" After a while, Xie Yuan slowly spoke, his red eyes full of madness and cruelty, "Go and give the order, and behead the unsuccessful commander!" can't do such a trivial thing, this son, there is no need for him. ”
The palms were clenched white, and there was a faint hint of pleasure in the bloodthirsty eyes.
"Mother! Mother! When the three returned, Dong Linjue was already waiting outside the door. Seeing Mrs. Wan's tragic situation, she couldn't help but shrink her pupils.
The whip marks are intertwined, tangled, and dying. He only felt that at that moment, his heart ached almost dripping blood.
"Princess Anchen—"
"Let's go in first." Xie Shiyun interrupted him.
She saw that on Leng Yan's back, the blood stains of the knife had gradually spread through the bumps along the way.
I couldn't help but whisper: "Let's go bandage first." ”
"Jue'er." On the contrary, she had just been carried back to the inner room, and Mrs. Wan woke up quietly.
She first glanced at Xie Shiyun gratefully, probably clearly aware of her physical condition, and tried her best to hold Dong Linjue's hand.
"Mother, I'm here, I'm here." Dong Linjue couldn't cry for a long time, but he still forced a smile and leaned to Mrs. Wan's side, "You are not in good health now, don't talk, let's recuperate first." ”
"No, Jue'er." The corners of Mrs. Wan's lips pulled up a faint arc, "My own body, I know it myself." If you don't talk about it now, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to say it. ”
"Mother—"
"You remember." Just a few words, the blood spilling from the corners of his lips was even more vivid, "You must live well, you must take back everything that Donglin Country owes you - otherwise, my mother will not be happy if she dies, you know!" Ahem—ahem—"
Perhaps choked a little harder, the blood seemed to trickle out desperately, and the look in Mrs. Wan's eyes became more and more dim.
"Mother—I remember, I must remember."
As soon as these words fell, Mrs. Wan's eyes closed completely.
Dong Linjue knew that this closure would never be able to open it again.
In the middle of the night, a mournful wail rang out from the mansion.
The process of cremating Mrs. Wan, all the way to how to return to Donglinguo with the ashes, Donglinjue can't remember clearly.
My mother died, and the pain in my heart gradually became numb.
"He's been even more silent these days." It wasn't until after Dong Linjue left that Xie Shiyun talked to Leng Yan about it.
It was they who helped cremate Mrs. Wan, took care of the matter, and watched the carriage slowly go away and disappear on the sheep intestine path, and there was a sense of being separated from the world.
"That's it, it's over, let's go back."
Xie Shiyun and others sent Donglinjue away, sighing all the way, and just returned to his residence, he received a message from Xie An, the eighth prince, saying that Donglin was facing civil strife, and he had taken the opportunity to escape from Donglin, and he would return to Dachen in a few days.
The eighth prince, Xie An, has a very low sense of existence among the princes, and when he was young, he was sent to Donglinguo to be a proton, and the identity of the proton is not pleasing in two places, and he can neither integrate into Donglinguo.
