Chapter 40: A Green Lantern Tells His Life
The lord of the city finally panicked, looked at the person who walked in, everything was ruined, and finally lowered his head and confessed.
It's just that she hated this traitor and wiped him in the neck with a knife.
The man was unbelievable until he died, blood was splashed on the face of the city lord, and then everyone on the spot turned their heads away, and Shui Yaohou immediately surrendered her.
A kick knocked her to her knees. The knife rests on the neck. "Everything is invited."
Bai Yi stepped aside, leaning on Yu Qi, "Where did you get that thing?" β
"I'll explain it later! The princess pulled the fruit first. β
Bai Yi went over and pulled the fruit to his side. Just wait now, wait for the results.
The empress was naturally angry at this time, but she didn't expect the city lord of Qingbo Town to collude with the snitch, the empress had already been angry with the snitch for a long time, and she had been sending official food and silver everywhere many times to no avail. It turns out that there is a castle lord to protect you!
"Say!!"
The city lord laughed, his eyes were confused and crazy, and he had long lost his mind, "Hahaha~, that's right, it's me, I did it." Snitch, I did it, kid, I killed it. β
"A good city lord is not right, he wants to go the wrong way!" The Empress was puzzled.
"City Lord?? No! I am from Yaolou, the official ...... of Yaolou"
"Bold!!" The Empress slammed the table.
The queen immediately appeased Her Majesty, and said to the lord of the city, "Bastard! Yaolou has long been the land of my Fengquan. β
"You took it! Kill our people, rob our territory, you were a hundred times more powerful than the snitch now! We are a small country of simple peace, but you have exterminated almost all the men of our country, and all the women have been displaced, and those who have been slaves have been enslaved, and those who have been killed have been killed. The lord of the city tore at his throat and glared at the empress viciously, "You are the ones who deserve to be destroyed." β
"Collect Yaohou!! Suppress this rebellious fanatic and wait for it to fall. The Empress's eyes were filled with fire, as if she were about to burn into her body.
The city lord was escorted down, and Bai Yi suffered a big blow, and his heart was difficult to calm down.
The empress asked the eldest princess at this time, "If it were you, how would you punish you?"
The eldest princess immediately got up and said, "Back to the mother, this, the daughter thinks, this person should be killed." β
Yu Qi leaned into Bai Yi's ear, "What does the princess think?" β
"Kill it."
"Haha~, this is not enough, it's better not to even let go of the corpse." Yu Qi finished speaking, and he was on the side.
Bai Yi chuckled in his heart.
"Little Liu, what do you think?" The Empress suddenly looked at Bai Yi again.
Bai Yi immediately stepped forward as well, "Back to the mother emperor, this person is very rebellious, the war is cruel, and they should be prepared to lose if they themselves write a war letter." Therefore, the death of this person is inevitable, and if the corpse is whipped to other Yaolou people to avoid, there will be different intentions. β
"You mean to whip the dead corpse and hang it on the wall?"
"Yes~" Bai Yi spoke a little tremblingly.
Bai Yi closed his eyes, a little frightened, but after thinking about those children, those persecuted people, he still felt that death would be death!
"Reportβ" A female soldier came to report.
"What?"
"The prisoner committed suicide on the way!"
Bai Yi's heart is still a little looser, it's better to die in your own hands.
"Then do as the sixth princess said, whip the corpse, cut off the head and hang it on the city wall." The Empress shook off her sentence and got up and left.
The eldest princess helped the queen back, the queen followed, and the others dispersed.
Bai Yi was still standing in place, as if he had lost his soul. Yu Qi came over to help Bai Yi up, "Princess, I'll let people take the fruit away, you should go back and rest early!" β
"Yuqi! Don't you have anything to tell me? β
Yu Qi lowered his head, "What does the princess want me to say?" Isn't the princess just the result? Isn't that what we wanted? β
Bai Yi sneered, "The children we want to save are dead, is it the desired result?" β
"There is a give-and-take."
Bai Yi smiled, "You've already started investigating the snitch!" You also deliberately let us go to the lake. β
"Yes, Yu Qi already knew that he was the city lord. But what does it matter? Yu Qi smiled, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
"Don't forget, you're just a man. Too presumptuous, all that awaits you is death. Bai Yi looked at him with no expression on his face.
"Yu Qi is a man, but also a person, is it better to avenge his relatives than men and women?"
Bai Yi said. "Heh~, but you have no effect on Bai Xiyan like this."
Yu Qi smiled, "Really? But it seems to have a good effect on the princess, what I like is the process, because the result is the same, and the second princess will pay the price sooner or later. β
"Whatever you want, let's go, go back and lie down, and get up early tomorrow." Bai Yi didn't bother to care what he did.
One night was a big change, Bai Yi has not slept since he went back, and he always thinks of the faces of those children.
Bai Yi opened his eyes and saw the magnified face of Yu Qi, and saw his delicate face clearly.
"Princess, get up quickly! The lord of the castle is waiting outside. β
Bai Yi was shocked, "Isn't she dead?" β
Yu Qi smiled, "I just took office." β
Bai Yi immediately got dressed and went out, it turned out to be her, "Hello Lord of the City~"
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be, Her Royal Highness the princess is fine." She was the original local petty official.
"I should congratulate the lord of the castle." Bai Yi smiled and teased.
"I can't stand it! Or the opportunity given by Her Royal Highness the Princess. β
"Then do it well, otherwise the city lord will know better than me what will happen." Bai Yi knew that she should know at this time.
"Yes, yes, yes, the minister must work hard and live up to expectations."
The city lord took Bai Yi to the main hall for breakfast, what bird's nest, what pastry, what iced dew tea, but exquisite.
Bai Yiyuqi ate this breakfast comfortably.
"Wen Jiao went back?"
"Well, we'll be back in a hurry in a while, and we'll have a two-day lotus festival! First of all, I have to go to the Buddhist temple to worship the Buddha or something. When the time comes, she will come and join us. Bai Yi said.
"Where's Magnolia?"
"I asked her to see how the kids were getting along."
"Hmm."
After eating, he suddenly heard the summons, Bai Yi hurried to the mother's palace again, but hesitated outside the door, to be honest, Bai Yi is very panicked now, will he stutter when he talks for a while, and whether his head will have a convulsion for a while. Oops, the more I think about it, the more messy it becomes.
Just take a breath and go in.
When he saw the mother emperor in front of him, he immediately knelt down, "The mother queen is fine." β
"Get up! Xiaoliu had a good rest last night?"
"The daughter slept well, I think the mother queen avenged the children and settled the children, and they are also at ease! But when I thought about it, my daughter still felt uncomfortable. β
When the empress approached, Bai Yizhu didn't dare to move in place, "I asked Shu Yaohou to go to the lake and imprison those people, you are meritorious, and I will reward you when I return to the palace." β
"Thank you, Mother." Bai Yi was a little excited in his heart.
When he came out, he walked to the lake and immediately laughed, "Father, sooner or later, I will redress your grievances, and I will pick you up when the time comes." β
"Yu Qi, congratulations to Her Royal Highness the Princess."
"Yu Qi~, you must have been given to me by the gods of heaven." Bai Yi suddenly wanted more, wanted all the eyes of the Mother Emperor.
She laughed, she thought. He watched, he accompanyed.
When the hour came, I got into the Fenghuang royal car and went back.
It's just that the difference is that I went directly to the largest Buddhist temple, which was originally supported by the royal family, and I was ready to get the news early.
The newly appointed city lord took it and stopped outside the mountain gate, Yu Qi helped Bai Yi down, came out to take a look, and was refreshed, his eyes were full of green, and the air seemed to pass through every inch of his body.
All of a sudden, the body became very light, as if it was one with nature, and it was fluttering.
"Let's go. Go to the backyard to change clothes and freshen up and bathe. A female nun came over with a bead and made a gesture of please.
Bai Yi followed, and walked to a more secluded place, a small wooden house, planted with red plums, and it was blooming. There is a bamboo forest behind the house, and the wind rustles when it blows.
Bai Yi was very happy, "Yuqi, is it beautiful?" β
"Beauty." Yu Qi looked at Bai Yi and smirked, looking doting.
"Hahaha~, here is a collection of heaven and earth aura~, it was the most prestigious school of the year~, and the students there are smarter than ever." The nun's face was confused, as if she remembered something again.
Bai Yi didn't care at this time, and smiled, "Then I'll also take a breath of the aura of heaven and earth." β
With that, he ran into the house and lay down directly on the scented wooden bed, which was very comfortable.
The stove here is smoked with sandalwood, which makes people not want to go out all of a sudden.
Yu Qi smiled helplessly. "The princess has been in the deep palace since she was a child, and she smiled."
"It's okay, the princess is still young."
"The place where the curtain boy cultivates is a wonderful place." After Yu Qi finished speaking, he bowed and went in.
The nun is here, melancholy, with a smile on the corner of her mouth and a blurred look in her eyes, as if she is not smiling.
For a long time, leave.
"Yuqi, this is really a good place, there are mountains, rivers and wooden houses, huh...... There is also an afterlife. Hahaha~" Bai Yi lay down and stretched out his hand, smiling.
"It's clean and tidy, it should be cleaned often. Your Royal Highness the Princess, it's better not to mess around. Yu Qi sat down and saw that there were various wooden furniture behind the openwork screen.
The carvings here are very delicate and exquisite, and the edges and corners are smooth, and they are very textured to the touch.
Yu Qi sat under the futon, fascinated by the piano resting on the wooden table, and put his hands lightly, and then Yu Qi felt something and whisked up.
The sound of the piano is muddy and embedded in people's hearts, perfectly revealing people's emotions, just like an affectionate man whispering.
Bai Yi listened, unconsciously followed the sound of the piano, his heart flew everywhere, wandering everywhere.
I don't know how long later, the nun brought a change of clothes and slammed the door twice, "Excuse me, this is the clothes to be changed." There is a hot spring in the bamboo forest behind, and Her Royal Highness the princess can go there to wash her body. β
"Okay."
She brought a gray plain dress, and she felt at peace at first glance.
"If it's inconvenient, the princess can go with me."
"It's okay, so it's good to rest early." Bai Yi stood up.
The nun took Bai Yi and walked towards the bamboo forest with her clothes, and saw a piece of fairy mist, and the cold air disappeared all of a sudden.
"Don't worry, princess, this is all a private courtyard."
"Okay."
The nun began to take off Bai Yi's clothes, and a large area of snow-white skin was exposed, it was too cold, Bai Yi immediately tested the temperature with her hands, and hurriedly poured it on her body.
Then it went down slowly, and the warmth hit the whole body, and suddenly I couldn't help but shiver, "It's so comfortable~"
The nun took care of Bai Yi's hair so as not to get wet, and Bai Yi seemed to be dyed with the fairy aura of this place.
The fairy mist is shrouded, leaning against the bamboo forest, the water is bright and blue, everything seems to be like that.
