Chapter 302: It's Too Late
He is like a ray of sunshine in her life, always appearing when she is most helpless, gently sweeping away all embarrassment and gloom for her.
He picked her up easily by the waist, and slowly left under the surprised gaze of everyone.
She leaned dizzily against his chest, trying to keep her eyes open to see him.
He was wearing a white fur today, and the white fox fur outlined the lines of his face very softly, but there was a chill in his eyes, which was rarely seen in his eyes.
"Why are you here?" Her breath spread through his chest.
Chu Lingyun lowered his eyes, the cold in his eyes dissipated in an instant, and his gaze at her was warm and warm.
"Because you finally need me, I'm here."
His words blew into her heart like a warm wind, but they made her eyes glaze.
She suddenly remembered a lot of things, the careful hug on Hongmei Peak, the brief letter brought by Ling'er, and the fireflies on the roof of the Guogong Mansion.
Even though he used to wear beggar's clothes, she still felt that he was unparalleled, like an immortal. His hands that don't seem to be stained have boiled ginger tea for her, and even washed her dirty pants.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's not good!"
A guard rushed into the plum garden with a shout, and because he was in such a hurry, he almost fell on his head when he entered the garden.
Shan Ye's gaze withdrew from Chu Lingyun and looked at the guard with a calm face.
"What's the matter, so much screaming?"
The guard breathlessly said, "Your Majesty, it's not good, the prison is on fire." ”
Between heaven and earth, it was as if everything was still.
Yun Qixi suddenly lost his sense of hearing and couldn't hear anything.
The scene was chaotic, panicking, screaming, running, and she couldn't hear anything.
"Put me down!"
She said softly, struggling twice at the same time, Chu Lingyun had no choice but to let her down.
She held on to a red plum tree, looked at the smoke rising from the night in the distance, and her heart seemed to be suddenly blocked by something, and she lost her breath all of a sudden.
Her hand broke away from the plum blossom tree, and her body fell down, and Chu Lingyun's powerful arm caught her in time.
The snow on the branches fell, mixed with falling red petals, on her face, in his hair.
The fire in the prison was out of control, and the fire burned more and more in the wind and snow, and in an instant, it lit up half of the sky.
There were many people around the prison, but no one went up to put out the fire. Only Yun Qixi took all kinds of tools and carried the billowing smoke to smash the big lock, but the lock never moved.
As a last resort, she dropped the things in her hand, ran to Shan Ye and knelt down in front of him, pulling the hem of his clothes.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please, please take out the key, he is your son, how can you see death and not save it? Your Majesty, please save him......"
Yun Qixi has lived for two eras, and she has never begged someone so lowly, she has only one thought in her heart, in order to save him, she can do without any dignity or arrogance.
But no matter how she pleaded, Shan Ye always stared at the prison with an indifferent face, not moving, and letting its fire spread.
Yun Qixi completely cooled his heart, stood up, and stared at that indifferent face and sneered.
"What emperor are you? He called your father emperor for twenty years in vain, and that's how you did it to him? That's how you want him to die! Executing him would ruin your reputation, so you take advantage of this fire? Your Majesty, you are so insidious! ”
She is no longer afraid of anything, and it is a big deal to sentence her to death!
"Tanabata, don't talk nonsense." A lot of people were trying to persuade her.
Shan Ye's eyes sank and looked at her, with a thick anger in his eyes.
"What do you say? Do you want to die with him? ”
Seeing his angry and anxious look, Yun Qixi still smiled.
"Yes, I'm just going to die with him, this sentence is exactly what you want, right? Don't bother you. ”
She turned abruptly and ran towards the red-hot gate.
Several hands grabbed her.
"Tanabata, if you want to live, you must live well."
Yun Qixi only felt that her body was cold, and the fire in front of her couldn't warm her heart.
"I want to save him, but if you don't save him, won't you let me save him?"
Several people came to hold her alone, so that she couldn't break free at all.
"Let go of me, you guys!"
Just as she was struggling, the prison in front of her suddenly collapsed.
Countless sparks floated into the night sky, like stars flying to the sky, one by one, and finally all perished.
"Ahh
She screamed, and suddenly opened her eyes, finding herself in a small space.
It's bumpy underneath, it's in the carriage.
It turned out to be just a dream!
However, the prison fire is not a dream.
She sat up suddenly, feeling dizzy as she pushed too hard.
It took a while for her to recover, and she touched her head, the wound on her head had been bandaged.
"Are you awake?"
There was a question outside the carriage, it was Chu Lingyun's voice.
"Hmm." She answered.
She had one dislocated foot and had to use her other foot to move to the door and open the car door.
Chu Lingyun, who was sitting in the carriage, turned around and smiled warmly at her.
"Let's go inside, it's cold outside."
It was pitch black all around, and the roads were lined with mountains and fields, and it was obvious that this no longer belonged to the capital.
"Lingyun, where are you going?"
"That palace, that capital, that person hurt you, I want to take you away." Chu Lingyun stared at her, and answered calmly and seriously.
The words she had said before she fainted echoed in her mind.
The prison caught fire.
She grabbed Chu Lingyun's arm in a panic, "Go back!" ”
Chu Lingyun's eyes dimmed, and he didn't speak, but he didn't stop the carriage.
"Go back! There was a fire in the prison, and it was too late to put out the fire. ”
Yun Qixi's tone at this moment was almost pleading.
"It's too late." He sighed.
When the words fell, he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him, followed by a few arrows breaking through the wind, Chu Lingyun quickly raised his sword and shot down the flying arrows, and there were still two arrows nailed to the carriage.
"Sit down!"
After Chu Lingyun finished speaking in a deep voice, he sat down and drove seriously, staring at the front with a serious face.
"Princess Jin, I don't mean anything else when I ask you to go back, King Jin is dead, don't you want to send him on his last journey?"
Yun Qixi's head buzzed, and it was blank in an instant.
She was very impressed by this voice, it was Shan Ziyin's killer Cheng Kui!
Almost without thinking about it, she was about to jump out of the carriage, Chu Lingyun saw her intentions, and the moment he reached out to stop her, he snorted, and an arrow was plunged into his shoulder.
"Lingyun!" Yun Qixi was a little panicked.
Chu Lingyun helplessly helped her sit down, "Qixi, listen to me, it's useless for you to go back now, I don't want you to have anything to do." ”
That's right, it's no use to go back now.
Yun Qixi slowly calmed down, Cheng Kui won't be anything good chasing her? Even if she wanted to go back, she had to avoid Cheng Kui first.
She saw that Chu Lingyun's shoulders were already wet, and she couldn't care about anything anymore, so she reached out to pick up his clothes.
"Take off your clothes, I'll show you."
Chu Lingyun grabbed her hand and stopped her, the worry on her face made his heart warm slightly.
"I'm fine, you sit down, let's get rid of him first."
Where is there time to deal with the wound now, seeing that Cheng Kui is chasing closer and closer, and the arrows are flying impermeable, Chu Lingyun pulled out the arrow on his shoulder, and the horsewhip was whipped on the horse's body like a fierce whip, and the horse was in pain, and immediately spread his hooves and galloped.
He held the whip in one hand and held her hand tightly with the other, firstly reluctant to let go, and secondly so that he could feel her.
The horse suddenly picked up speed, and suddenly pulled away from the horse behind him.
There was a bend ahead, and the carriage turned into it was a ravine. The moonlight was all obscured by the towering mountains on either side, and it was dark inside the canyon.
As soon as the carriage turned in, Chu Lingyun threw away the horsewhip.
"Hold me tight!"
As soon as the words fell, he jumped into the grass on the side of the road with Yun Qixi in his arms, and the carriage was still running forward frantically.
Cheng Kui rode a horse and followed the carriage closely, not noticing that the person was no longer in the carriage.
As the sound of horses' hooves faded away, the canyon became silent.
"Tanabata, how are you?" Chu Lingyun's voice sounded a little weak.
Yun Qixi lay on his chest, only to feel a splitting headache.
Probably because of the head injury, when she landed just now, although Chu Lingyun had tried her best to protect her, she still felt dizzy.
"I, I'm fine, what about you?"
"I'm fine!" Chu Lingyun helped her up, and he also turned over and sat up.
"We have to get out of here right away, he'll be back. Come, I'll carry you. ”
"No need, I'll go by myself!"
But he didn't allow her to refuse at all, so he scooped her up, put her on his back, and walked up the hill step by step.
"You're hurt, you can't walk."
"But you're hurt, too."
"I'm a man."
When they had disappeared into the mountains, they heard the sound of horses' hooves coming back again, and the horses were still circling in the canyon for a while before finally leaving.
"You let me down!"
Yun Qixi could hear from his breath that he was tired.
"Okay."
There was snow everywhere on the mountain, Chu Lingyun put her down and sat on the snow, and untied his coat to wrap her.
"I'll help you look at your feet."
"No, I'll help you see the wound first!"
Chu Lingyun didn't stop helping her take off her shoes, and said self-deprecatingly, "I can't die of this injury." ”
Fingers pinched her ankle twice, "Your foot is dislocated, I'll help you get back into place, it will hurt a little, you bear with it a little." ”
He held her foot with one palm, gently moving her foot joints, and suddenly strained the ground, only to hear a click.
Yun Qixi almost bit his lip, but he didn't snort.
Chu Lingyun carefully put down her feet, distressed and guilty.
"I'm sorry, I know it hurts."
Yun Qixi's face turned white and smiled bitterly, "Fortunately, when I helped others pick it up in the past, I never knew that there was such pain, but now that I have experienced it, I will be gentler in the future." ”
Chu Lingyun put his mind at ease and fell to the side.
"Tanabata, let me lie down for a while, and we'll go again." His voice suddenly sounded powerless.
"Are you badly injured? I'll take a look at it for you. ”
As soon as Yun Qixi's words fell, a loud shout came from the top of his head.
"Who?"
Immediately afterwards, several people rushed down from the mountain and surrounded them.
