42. Gain and loss

Mo Yu originally just secretly followed to see what Su Tian was going to do, but he didn't expect to bump into this scene. Now if it is discovered by the Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang, only one will die.

She lowered her voice and said to Gongzihan: "You enter through the main entrance, pretend that you don't see anything, and visit the Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang as usual." Don't show a flaw, you know? ”

Gongzihan nodded, wiped his hand on his face a few times, and then raised his head and asked, "Cousin-in-law, cousin also killed my father, he ...... Are you also a bad guy? ”

"He's not," Mo Yu wanted to say a few words of comfort to him, but comfort can make him feel comfortable for a while, but he can't deceive himself forever," he ...... and the Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang, they are not bad people, they all have their own things that they want to protect, and for this thing, everything else can be sacrificed, including themselves. You will not be a child in the future, you are the king of the Chu country, and you must not be afraid to sacrifice anything for the sake of the Chu country. ”

Gongzihan didn't seem to understand it, and his eyes were full of bravery that was not commensurate with his age. He took off his robe, leaving only a close-fitting coat, and rubbed his hair messy, and then said to Mo Yu: "At this time, I should sleep in the side hall next to me, I said to the Queen Mother's grandmother, I had a nightmare, and I was scared in my heart......" His voice trembled, he was really afraid.

Mo Yu patted his frightened little yellow face and nodded to him encouragingly, this child has no time to grow up slowly.

Gongzihan ran into the main hall and threw himself into the arms of the Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang, crying breathlessly: "Grandma the Empress Dowager, I'm afraid, I dreamed that those people were going to lock me up, I couldn't understand the questions they asked, I didn't know anything......" He was really frightened, and there were three points of pretense in his cry, but seven points were true feelings.

Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang stroked his hair: "Han'er is not afraid, Han'er will be the king of Chu in the future, and the person who is the king is not afraid of anything." ”

Seeing that the Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang was not suspicious, Mo Yu breathed a sigh of relief and pressed her body even lower. Wait a few more hours for dawn, when the whole palace will be busy arranging the affairs of the first king, and she will find an opportunity to sneak out. There was a sudden chill on his neck, and a small dagger pressed against Mo Yu's throat. The hand holding the dagger was still trembling, apparently its owner was doing such a thing for the first time.

Mo Yu turned his head slightly, and Yun Jiang was staring at her with a pair of red eyes, looking at her with hostility. There are really a lot of people who come to the palace of King Chu to peep tonight......

"Xiao Zhen wants to see you." Yun Jiang sent the dagger forward an inch, and in a fit of nervousness, he didn't even notice that the dagger had cut through Mo Yu's neck.

The hall suddenly erupted with earth-shattering cries, Mo Yu and Yun Jiang subconsciously looked through the gap in the curtain, the Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang must have announced the death of the King of Chu, and a team of guards was putting white silk on the neck of the palace maid and concubine, and everyone who appeared here tonight would be martyred. The two palace maids who had poured poison into King Chu's mouth just now were already paralyzed motionless on the ground.

"Come with me, hurry up, Xiao Zhen wants to see you." Yun Jiang didn't care about the situation in the main hall and pushed Mo Yu.

Mo Yu sneered: "If you heard the previous conversation, you should know that the Empress Dowager Zhaoxiang will not let him go, you go and tell him to think about how to ask for more blessings first." ”

Yun Jiang's fingers trembled, but she refused to back down at all, she had already tasted the taste of falling from the clouds into the dirt. That terrible man, who gave her everything and ruined everything for her. She thought that she was favored by the gods and had the ability to know the future, so she became the most respected sorcerer in the Chu Kingdom. But he could easily ruin everything for her, and as long as he told the truth, she would be finished. The name Yunjiang will mean deception, uncleanness, and ruin......

Having tasted the taste of being high, who can endure mediocrity? What's more, the fate of the matter is definitely not as simple as mediocrity, the wizard is unclean, and he will be burned at the stake and burned alive.

"I don't care, he just said let me take you to meet him." Yun Jiang twisted Mo Yu's arm, madness and fear were intertwined, and her strength was extremely strong. The space was small, and Mo Yu was afraid of being seen by people outside, so he couldn't avoid her. When the backhand tried to break free, the heart and lungs trembled violently, like an invisible hand, pinching her throat, and Mo Yu couldn't exert his strength at all, and was restrained by Yun Jiang.

Yun Jiang pulled Mo Yu and went out through the small door behind the dormitory, pulling Mo Yu's hair with one hand and holding her throat with a dagger with the other. If in normal times, Mo Yu can completely break free with the little martial arts he has practiced, but today I don't know what's wrong, it's hard to breathe, and I don't have any strength in my hands and feet.

didn't go far, Yun Jiang suddenly let go of his hand, and the dagger fell to the ground with a "bang". She prostrate on the ground, facing the tips of her black boots, not daring to look up: "People have brought it, you ...... You ......"

"Good girl, you're doing well." The man in black in the shadows spoke in a kind tone, but the three words "good girl" made people's backs break out in a cold sweat.

"But," he said from the shadows, crouching down and hooking Yun Jiang's chin, "who allowed you to scratch her?" ”

"I ...... No...... She refused to come......" Yun Jiang trembled, but he didn't even dare to struggle, and his eyes were blank to dodge. Xiao Zhen hooked her chin, looked idly, and didn't say a word. Yun Jiang's eyes changed from pleading to despair, and he groped to pick up the dagger from the ground and stab it in his neck.

Xiao Zhen raised his hand to block Yun Jiang's wrist that was about to fall, and said, "Don't stab it in a place where people can see it." Yun Jiang shook his hands, lifted the hem of his skirt, and stabbed himself in the thigh.

Mo Yu only understood what Yun Jiang was going to do at this time, went up to stop Yun Jiang's whereabouts, and said to Xiao Zhen, "Are you crazy enough?" ”

Yun Jiang was stopped, and she didn't dare to stop the movements in her hand, and the tip of the knife still cut a bloody wound on her leg. If she didn't do it honestly herself, Xiao Zhen's punishment would only be more terrifying.

Xiao Zhen let go of his hand, and somewhere he dipped a little cool ointment, smeared it on Mo Yu's neck, his expression was focused and gentle, and he said to Yun Jiang: "You go, the next thing, you know what to do." ”

Yun Jiang stood up in a panic and limped away.

Mo Yu also wanted to leave, but was firmly encircled by Xiao Zhen with his other arm: "My father left a lot of family heirloom prescriptions, all of which are very useful, and this wound medicine is hard to find outside." ”

"You let go of me, I don't need your medicine!" Mo Yu struggled and writhed, and the feeling of stuffiness became stronger and stronger.

"Xiao Yu, don't move, the method of breathing you practice will expand your heart and lungs, and you can't see anything now, but if you continue to twist it like this, you will have to suffer. You go back with me, I'll give you a few pairs of medicines, and slowly recuperate, which will always make you feel thorough. Xiao Zhen twisted her hand and finished applying the ointment.

Mo Yu knew that it was useless to struggle, but he quieted down: "You have so many ways, and you use this to deceive me and scare me." The method was originally taught by you, Su Tian told me, don't practice indiscriminately, but unfortunately I didn't know it at that time...... Isn't it death at most? I'm not afraid. ”

A pair of dark and faint eyes, staring fearlessly at Xiao Zhen, like a pool of water without waves in late autumn.

Xiao Zhen let go of his hand, suddenly kissed her eyes quickly, hooked the corners of his mouth and said, "I like your eyes the most, there must be a man-eating goblin living in them." Do you know that as long as you stare at me with these eyes, I will agree to anything? ”

Mo Yu was laughed angrily by his illogical words: "I want your life, will you give it?" ”

Xiao Zhen didn't answer her words: "I know what you're thinking, you think I'm a despicable villain, and that Su Tian is a noble-minded person." Let me tell you, Su Tian is the same as all the men in the world, no different. ”

Mo Yu curled his fingers in his hair and said with a smile: "So what? I like him anyway. I also know that the more you don't let me practice, the more I want to practice. Su Tian's health is not good, if he goes first, I am afraid that he will wait too long on the bridge and will be lonely. She approached Xiao Zhen, and her tone became more and more gentle: "If there is really that day, I will find him quickly and be married to him for the rest of my life." ”

She said it so naturally, as if it was the most logical thing to live and die with Su Tian.
