Chapter 221: On the eve of the battle
She remembered that Shu Xinlan once said that Cheng Zirui sent something to Jin Lifu, could it be this Li Guo Jade Seal? Or is this jade seal a fake that Jin Lifu deliberately gets?
"Your face is interesting, since you are not a real princess, then I don't need to scruple anymore, why don't you just peel off your face, and return your true face?"
Jin Lifu increased the strength on her neck, and his whole body suddenly pressed over. He leaned into Tong Yuqing's ear and laughed gloomily a few times, "Although I don't know how you got this face, Concubine Lan died because of you, and if you lose a woman for me, you have to compensate me for a woman." The Blood Rose on your back, let me see it again. ”
As she spoke, a hand was already on her delicate waist. Tong Yuqing trembled, the movements in her hands were faster than the thoughts in her head, she reached out and quickly grabbed the jade seal, and smashed it towards Jin Lifu's head.
The jade thing smashed up unceremoniously, Jin Lifu snorted, and let go of her at the same time. Tong Yuqing got the opportunity and immediately pulled out her legs and ran outside, just two steps before Jin Lifu pulled back, her feet off the ground, and after a whirlwind, her body was slammed against the hard wall, and the pain was so painful that she almost didn't breathe.
Jin Lifu covered his head, leaving sticky blood between his fingers. He walked up to Tong Yuqing and let go of the hand covering his head, the blood hole in the corner of his forehead was still leaving blood, and in the blink of an eye, half of his face was already wet with blood. A sinister smile appeared on his hideous face, "A red grapefruit almost cost me my life, and now there is such a seductive thing as you." Yu Chong didn't dare to come up himself, so he just found a bunch of women to deal with me? I didn't kill the pomelo, but I can kill you. ”
Tong Yuqing looked up at him without humility or arrogance, and after listening to him, he only sneered slightly.
"Kill me, and you won't be able to find Yu Chong."
Jin Lifu raised his hand to wipe the blood on his face and laughed wildly. "Tomorrow, as long as I catch the remnants of the former prince and have you in my hands, I don't believe that Yu Chong won't come out!"
As soon as the words fell, Jin Lifu pounced. Tong Yuqing rolled to the side, and in addition to his violent heartbeat, he also heard a muffled sound of falling to the ground. She turned around with palpitations, but saw that Jin Lifu had fallen to the ground, his face painful.
Tong Yuqing reacted very quickly and got up and picked up the jade seal of Li Guo that had fallen to the ground. Just thinking about smashing people, I didn't feel anything at all. Now that she grabbed this thing in her hand, she recognized that this was the seal she saw in Cheng Zirui's study!
It's true!
I remember that Yu Chong mentioned to him before that there was a shallow secret passage on the third square brick under the dragon case. She crawled under the dragon case and snapped her fingernails twice, but the floor tiles did not move at all, but broke her nails, and the flesh and blood were blurred.
She plucked the hairpin from her bun and pried it twice, the hairpin was deformed, and the place did not move at all. I was in a hurry, and in the confusion, I didn't know where I touched it, and the floor tiles fell down automatically. She finally picked up the floor tile through the gap where she fell, stuffed the bloody jade seal into it, and then put the floor tile back in its place.
As soon as he finished this action, the commander of the Praetorian Guard, who was waiting for the order, noticed that something was wrong and directly led someone to break in. Seeing Jin Lifu fall to the ground, his eyes were bleeding, and his face changed suddenly.
"Call the imperial doctor, the lord of the country has been poisoned!"
After the order was finished, the commander of the Praetorian Guard walked over quickly, lifted the bright yellow square cloth on the dragon case, and pulled out Tong Yuqing hidden inside, and the tip of the sword was already against her heart, stabbing her skin slightly, and she trembled slightly in pain.
"Her life, keep it first."
Jin Lifu, who was already unconscious, suddenly widened his eyes, and pointed in the direction of Tong Yuqing from a distance and shouted urgently. The commander needs to protect the lord of the country closely, so he naturally saw Jin Lifu's poisonous hair. But he still wondered in his heart, in the past, Jin Lifu had always been in a coma and fell asleep for a long time, why did he wake up so quickly this time.
Who would have thought that Jin Lifu's face suddenly changed, a pair of bloodshot scarlet eyes were about to fall out of his sockets, and his immobile identity trembled violently.
"Is the Imperial Doctor here? Hurry up and rush. If you can't go fast, just carry people here for me, and don't delay for a moment! The Praetorian Guard Commander frowned and urged.
The imperial doctor came quickly, and he was still the one who treated Jin Lifu in the Linyuan Pond before. In the same way, he fed Jin Lifu a medicine, pricked needles on several acupuncture points, and applied medicine to the wound on Jin Lifu's forehead to stop the bleeding, and he was relieved after a toss.
The commander of the Praetorian Guard dragged up the imperial doctor and asked urgently: "Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, will the emperor's body delay the sacrifice?" ”
"Let the emperor rest for two hours, and then I will come to diagnose and treat after two hours, and then I can come to a conclusion after looking at the pulse."
The Praetorian Guard Commander sank his face, "No! Now it is a rumor that is not good for the Li country, and it is the time when the emperor needs to stabilize the hearts of the people and the army. ”
The Imperial Physician stopped talking, and finally sighed, "I'll do my best." ”
Tong Yuqing couldn't help but look at the commander of the Praetorian Guard twice, and silently remembered this person's appearance in his heart. As she was about to lose her mind, a sword that shimmered with cold light slammed across her neck.
The next day, somewhere in the capital of the Li Kingdom.
Tang Qi had just ordered the matter down, and as soon as he turned around, he saw a familiar person in the distance. Because it was not yet dawn, and he couldn't see it clearly, he walked a few steps over there, and only after taking a closer look did he recognize that this was Yu Chong, so he hurriedly walked to his side.
"Second master! Where did the second master come from? ”
Yu Chong didn't say much, "I went to do some personal things." ”
After speaking, he saw that he threw the burden in his hand into Tang Qi's arms, Tang Qi opened it and saw that it was all gold and silver ingots and silver tickets thicker than two palms combined.
"This ...... Second master, have you gone to see the silver? ”
is also the obscurity that Tang Qi said, in fact, it is the treasury silver that Princess Li smuggled out of the palace and hid before she fled.
"After dawn, you will deposit the silver into all the ticket numbers in the capital, and the name will be on my Yu Chong's, the more ostentatious, the better. And ......," he said, taking out a small portion of the silver bills and tapping them twice with his finger, "take them and give them to the brethren, and tell them to go down and be ready at all times, for the war is not far off." ”
Tang Qi was about to speak, and saw Yu Chong sweeping the people gathered in front of him, "It's not for you to disperse, what are you gathering here for?" ”
"Today is the Lantern Festival, Jin Lifu will leave the palace to pray for blessings, and we killed Jin Lifu in one fell swoop on the way to pray for blessings."
Yu Chong's eyes lit up, "Who gave you the guts?" Don't die, don't you? ”
Tang Qi was stunned, "This is the order of the son, and the brothers also thought that this would be a great opportunity at that time, and everyone didn't want to wait so much." ”
"Womb?" Yu Chong's tone suddenly sank, "What am I Yu Chong dormant for so long?" In order to be able to win with one blow! Knowing that a traitor between us dares to act so recklessly, he is not sensible, don't you understand it either? ”
Tang Qi also knew that this matter was really risky, but they had already arrived at the doorstep, and the brothers were all gearing up, who would have the patience to wait at this time?
"Now all countries know that there is a gap in the treasury of the Li State, and for others, the Li State is now an empty shell that has been disguised for many years! We can only win with one blow, otherwise there will be chaos in the country first, and there will be less border wars at that time? ”
Tang Qi hugged the burden in his arms tightly, and only then did he understand the intention of Yu Chong to tell those things just now. Yu Chong did this because he wanted to provoke Jin Lifu, but he couldn't get the money under his Jin Lifu's nose, which gradually caused him panic and gradually messed up. Moreover, Yu Chong can also tell the people of Li that the treasury of their Li State has returned, the monarch has also returned, and Li State is no longer an empty shell.
"The sacrifice began at the time, and at this time, half of the people ordered by Childe had already gone out, and even Childe took Princess Ling over in person."
"What are you bringing that woman for? Let Jin Lifu kill my Qing'er first? ”
Tang Qi looked at Yu Chong's terrifying face, where did he dare to say that Qing'an had promised Princess Ling, and wanted the beauty to see how she got back what belonged to her step by step, so as to show that she had the ability and was Mingjun?
"What did Zhuo Changdong say?" Yu Chong asked as he walked.
"I just sent a letter two hours ago, saying the number of people and precautions for the sacrifice of Jin Lifu......"
Yu Chong's footsteps paused slightly, and he always felt that there was something wrong, but he couldn't find the reason for a while. Tang Qi's heart sank, "Second master, but what's wrong?" Why don't you go down and invite your son back, and give up at this time? ”
"Forget it." Yu Chong shook his head, "It's all at the capital of Li Kingdom, the gate of the imperial city, this is Qing'an's decision, he wants to make an example for the people of the world, do you think you can invite him back?" Let our people be more careful, be improvised, and withdraw first if the situation is not right. In addition, find Zhuo Changdong to confirm the situation on Jin Lifu's side, and there can be no more mistakes. ”
"My subordinates understand."
It's almost time.
The Palace of the Loei Kingdom.
Hearing that Zhuo Changdong was waiting outside the hall, his pale and ugly face showed a sinister smile.
"Let him in."
Zhuo Changdong came to him, and after saluting, he said directly: "Your Majesty, everything is ready, only Dongfeng is owed, and Tang Qi just sent someone to contact the minister, saying that Yu Chong will also be present." ”
Jin Lifu pushed the tea in his hand and swallowed the pill in his hand in one gulp. "It's really effortless, this one, I'm going to let them go and never come back! Zhuo Aiqing, you can think about it carefully, as soon as you show up today, you will be Yu Chong's enemy. ”
Zhuo Changdong looked back at him neither humbly nor arrogantly, "After today, Yu Chong will be a dead man, so how can he be an enemy." ”
