Chapter 305: Imperial Power (2)

The autumn sun is high and bright.

In the suburbs of Beijing, a group of cars and horses walked forward, and occasionally there was a cheerful laughter.

Ji Erlan was dressed in men's clothes and rode on a horse, listening to Yuexi and the others playing, and looked at the man next to him with a smile.

Yang Wei changed out of the brocade robe and only wore an ordinary plain white gown, but the all-round bearing was innate, which was impossible to ignore no matter what. His body swayed slightly with the horse, and his silhouette appeared faint in the backlight.

Feeling Ji Erlan's gaze, he raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "What?" What do you have to say? ”

Ji Erlan's face turned red, turned her head and said unnaturally: "It's nothing ......" She thought about it, and then bluntly found the topic, and said: "The new emperor ascends the throne, the court and China are changing with each passing day, and it is the time when stability is urgently needed, can the prince really rest assured that he will leave like this?" ”

Yang Wei glanced at her, and seemed not satisfied with her answer, but he still answered her question: "Ninth brother...... No, Your Majesty, it's not as weak as others think. ”

"I know this...... "King Yi's city, Ji Erlan has already understood." I'm talking about...... Queen Mother ......"

When the emperor was dying, the queen mother compromised and used an edict to cede the throne to King Yi, in exchange for her own life to guard the soul of the emperor. After the emperor's death, the queen mother seemed to be afraid that her son would be too lonely, so she mentioned that Song Yaoxian burned the Yuntai Hall and killed the envoys of the Baimeng, so that she martyred the emperor.

Yang Zhen smiled lightly: "I remember you once said that sometimes, being alive is more uncomfortable than dying. ”

Ji Erlan was silent and said: "Maybe the Queen Mother thinks that the hatred of the country and the family can still change, and her sins can be forgotten over time." She is reluctant to give up the prosperity of the world, and she is reluctant to give up her life. I always feel that as long as I live, there will be a day when I will turn over. And Duan Wang Ye ended his life happily, as if staying in this world for a moment is torment. ”

King Duan's various crimes could not escape death, and he himself was clear, so when he was in the palace that day, he didn't wait for Cao Yushi to finish speaking, and he broke off on his own. Before he died, the look on his face was sad and resolute, as if he was underground, and he still had to compete with the emperor to compete for the deep affection in his heart.

Yang Wei saw that she was quite touched, so he said: "Actually, you still can't let go of the Ji family." "Ji Erlan seems to be cold and hard, but in fact, he has the softest heart. The ending of the Qin family made her not know how to face herself and the Ji brothers. Although they did not blame the slightest, she herself could not get by.

"At the beginning, the prince introduced Brother Rong and King Yi, I am afraid that I already knew that there would be such a day. There is also the eldest brother, who can be valued by General Chu, and must also have the role of the prince. ”

"Ji Yun is indeed the one I introduced to General Chu, but whether he is valued or not is his own ability. And Brother Rong, born with a delicate heart, will be a generation of capable ministers in the future. ”

Ji Erlan was silent before saying, "Well, so, there is nothing to worry about." From the very beginning, Yang Zheng made the best arrangements for her personnel, so that she had no worries. She wanted to say "thank you", but in the end she swallowed this thank you back into her stomach, and just smiled at Yang Zheng.

Yang Zhen looked back at her and smiled peacefully. "In any case, it is imperative to go to Yasukuni this time. You have to find out where you came from, and I want to know what happened to my mother when she disappeared for six years. ”

"With Su Yu's Su Gu brothers and sisters with him, the prince must be able to find out what happened soon." Before the incident, Su Yu's two siblings rushed back to the capital to hand over Su Yun's letter and Linglong dice to them, otherwise it would take a lot of twists and turns to expose King Duan in one fell swoop. But Yan Hong seemed to have evaporated from the world, and what disappeared with him was the secret talisman that ordered the Qinghe Cui clan.

Yang Zheng seemed to see what she was thinking, and said: "With Yan Hong's temperament, he will never be satisfied with the ordinary, and will definitely lie dormant somewhere waiting for an opportunity." Otherwise, why would he take the risk of taking away the secret talisman of the Qinghe Cui clan. ”

Ji Erlan nodded, looking at the empty vision in front of him, and was about to speak, when a loud whistle suddenly sounded in his ears.

The sharp fluctuating whistle went straight to the eardrums, and Ji Erlan looked in the direction where the sound came from, and heard Yang Zheng shouting "Be careful" behind him! Ji Erlan's head was off, and a sharp arrow flew past her sideburns and nailed to the trunk of the tree behind her!

The moon in the car lifted the curtain to see what was happening outside, but the car shook violently. It turned out that the horse pulling the cart had been hit by an arrow, and the horse neighed in fear, raised its front hooves high, and galloped forward before it could fall. Yue Xi was unstable and almost rolled out of the carriage, but fortunately, Su Gu grabbed her, but before the two of them could sit firmly, the carriage was a sharp bump.

"Su Gu!" Seeing this, Su Yu didn't say a word and chased out. Yang Zhen frowned, and said to Ji Erlan: "You stay here, I'll chase them." ”

Before he finished speaking, suddenly Su Yu shouted in fright, Yang Zhen's words stopped abruptly, and when he turned around, he saw Li Chaosheng rolling down from the carriage with his chest clutched, blood spurting. Several black-clad and masked men followed closely behind the carriage. Yuexi pulled up the curtain of the door, pulled the reins with all his might, and stabilized the galloping carriage, but the horse was injured and rushed forward in pain.

Twilight and the others poked their heads out of the carriage, and their faces turned pale with fright when they saw this, Ji Erlan hurriedly said: "The prince will chase people first, and I will break the back!" The situation was urgent, and Yang Wei could only nod and agree, and took some of the guards to chase after him.

Ji Erlan hurriedly went over to check Li Chaosheng's injuries, ordered someone to rescue him, carried him into the carriage to treat his injuries, and followed him all the way in the direction that Yang Zheng and the others were running away. But in the end, the carriage dragged down, and there were injured people, and soon Yang Zheng's shadow was gone.

Razor and the others were waiting around the carriage, but it seemed that all the men in black had gone after the carriage in front, and no one attacked again. He was a little worried that the other party was coming for Yang Zheng, and he couldn't help but be a little anxious. said: "Girl, who will it be?" ”

Thinking about it, no one should target Yang Zheng.

Ji Erlan also muttered a little in his heart, could it be that after King Yi ascended the throne, he also made the same mistakes as the emperors of previous dynasties? She had just thought of this when she heard another whistle in the woods on her right.

Her face changed, and she shouted, "Be careful!" He flew to block a fatal arrow for Razor. However, the horses in Twilight's carriage were hit by another arrow and neighed in fright. Ji Erlan said angrily: "Bastard! Here it is again! ”

As she spoke, she neatly pulled out the software from her waist, her wrist flicked, and the long and thin sword body swirled around the horse's neck, the horse shivered in pain, and the neighing suddenly turned into a whimper, and the blood spurted out in an instant, and the horse's body took advantage of the momentum to rush forward and fell to the ground with a bang, and the carriage was pulled aside for a while and overturned, and Twilight Leaf fell in it. Ji Erlan shouted at them, "Stay inside and don't come out!" ”

With that, she waved her hand for Razor and the others to surround the remaining three carriages in the middle. He took the bow and crossbow in Yuechen's hand and squinted into the woods.

With a "rub", the crossbow arrow shot out quickly! Only the sound of leaves was heard, but no one was hit by the arrow.

Yuechen wanted to say how could he shoot someone like this, but he heard another "rub" crossbow arrow shot, and a muffled snort immediately came from the woods. He looked at Ji Erlan in disbelief, and saw that the other party made a silent gesture. Then another arrow was fired, and the man hiding in the woods seemed to be shot to the point, as if he had fallen from a high tree, and there was a series of crashing sounds and the rattle of leaves.

Lei Ze asked with his eyes if he wanted to go to the forest to have a look, Ji Erlan shook his head, and said with his mouth: "There must be an ambush, let's retreat!" ”

Everyone listened to the order and quietly retreated.

The enemy is dark and I am clear, they are too passive! It is necessary to lure the other party out in order to prevent future troubles. Otherwise, who can stand the other party always putting cold arrows behind him? Ji Erlan raised her face and felt the direction of the wind, and asked Twilight and a few others who didn't know kung fu to follow the guards and get on the horse. She made a gesture and told the group to divide into two teams, one left and one right, waiting around the dense forest. Then he pulled down the wine bag that was hanging immediately, poured the wine inside on the edge of the forest, took out the fire fold and lit it without hesitation.

The fire burned quickly by the autumn wind, and it burst into flames!

Ji Erlan looked at the fire with satisfaction, and said deliberately: "Let's withdraw and go to fight with the prince." ”

When the guards saw that she had finished speaking, they remained motionless on their horses. Holding a crossbow arrow in his hand, he aimed inside, listening carefully. I can't help but wonder what she is going to do. Suddenly, Ji Erlan's eyes flashed, and three crossbow arrows left the string one after another! Then there were exclamations and the sound of falling to the ground in the woods! It seems that the leader was injured!

Finally, the person hiding in the shadows couldn't hold it back, and rushed out of the place where there was no fire, and plunged headlong into two groups of guards who had set up a formation in advance!

Ji Erlan sneered: "Kill!" ”

The man in black was caught off guard, and several of them were killed at once, and the rules gradually became messy.

Ji Erlan grabbed a man in black and asked, "Who are you?!" ”

The man glanced at her, and struck with his sword in a desperate posture that would die with her. Seeing this, Ji Erlan had no choice but to give up, and cut the other party's throat with a sword, and the heavy smell of blood suddenly spread to his nose, which was disgusting.

Ji Erlan snorted coldly, without delay, and said, "Fight quickly, go and chase the prince!" ”

When Lei Ze and the others heard this, they no longer thought about catching the live mouth, and killed the man in black with three strikes and five divisions! Although the opponent has good skills, he does not have an advantage in numbers, otherwise he would not have chosen ambushes and traps at the beginning.

Ji Erlan saw that the guards had lifted the fallen carriage and re-tied the horses. Raise your hand and signal everyone not to delay any longer. At this moment, a voice suddenly came from not far away......

The voice......

Ji Erlan was shocked when he heard it!
