Chapter 15: Phoenix Blood
The emperor's eyes flashed, he was indeed moved by Situ Chengming's words, but the expression on his face was still calm.
Seeing this, Situ Chengming continued to touch the emperor's anger, "As long as the emperor believes in the Situ family, the ministers will definitely be able to unite the four major families to help the emperor again." ”
"Father, promise your uncle." The prince eagerly stepped into the main hall.
"Prince, who allowed you to come in?"
The emperor didn't expect the prince to break in without reporting.
The crown prince's emotions seemed very excited, "Father, Emperor Lan and Ye Yuan are obviously doing everything possible to stir up the imperial city, didn't you think that Emperor Lan was using Huang Ying's matter to deal with the four major families?" They obviously started with the Situ family first, and everyone knew that the Situ family was the leader of the four families. ”
"What the prince said is very true, and the minister also feels that King Lan and King Jinyang came back at the same time with a purpose, and King Lan is not allowed to see King Lan whether he is alive or dead." Situ Chengming followed the prince's words and continued to explain the emperor.
"Father, don't hesitate, Uncle Lan's iron cavalry has secretly entered the city, and we can't sit idly by."
The emperor motioned to the crown prince to stop talking.
But the crown prince didn't mean to stop at all, and continued, "Uncle Lan is taking revenge, he is avenging the emperor's grandfather and Concubine Ya. ”
"I want you to shut up, don't you hear it?" Because of the prince's words, the emperor touched the limit of his heart, stared at the round eyes and suddenly got up, pointed at the prince and ordered him to stop.
Sensing his excitement, the prince immediately stopped, "Father forgives the sin, and the son is in too much of a hurry." ”
"Your Majesty, the crown prince is also thinking about you and the whole David." Situ Chengming also persuaded the emperor for the prince's impulse.
With the prince's confession and Prime Minister Situ's persuasion, the emperor eased his breath a little. "Prince, there are things that can be said, and some things that can't be said, if there is a next time, I will definitely not ask for forgiveness to hear it!"
"The sons and daughters obey the teachings of their father." The prince knew that he had said the wrong thing, and immediately knelt down to confess his mistake to the emperor.
Situ Chengming signaled to the crown prince to be calm, "Your Majesty, a group of iron cavalry of King Lan has secretly entered the city, what should we do next?" ”
"You go back first, let me be quiet." The emperor's order was answered by Situ Chengming.
"Father-" The prince subconsciously wanted to speak, but was stopped by his uncle Situ Chengming and withdrew from the main hall.
Entering the queen's Fengyi Palace, the prince kicked the flower pot next to the door, looking angry and angry, "Queen Mother, what did you say, what did your father think?" Uncle Lan Huang was so rampant, he was indifferent? ”
The queen had already learned what had happened from her eldest brother when the prince was angry.
"Is Ye Yuan dead?"
"Queen Mother, we don't know, Uncle Lan Huang won't allow us to enter his mansion, and it's not clear whether we're dead or alive now." The prince replied angrily.
Situ Chengming patted the prince's shoulder to show comfort, and returned to the queen, "Sister, Huang Ying is still in King Lan's mansion, Gu Ningyan and Wei Qianlan are unwilling to let go, and the emperor is unwilling to come forward, now only you can help the Situ family." ”
"Hmph, Gu Ningyan is a little slut, she obviously wants to get along with our Situ family." The queen's face was very angry, and with a wave of her arm, the tea bowl in her hand was shattered.
"Queen Mother, uncle, we can't sit still, we must strike first." The prince's eyes burst out with a hint of murderous intent.
The queen clenched her fists, thought for a moment, and finally nodded at the prince and Situ Chengming.
The night of late spring was drizzling with the spring breeze, and Gu Ningyan consumed a lot of spiritual power to save Ye Yuan, so he took a pill and rested.
The conjuring lamp at the head of Ye Yuan's bed became flickering and dimming as the window slowly opened.
The guarded iron cavalry was still dozing off.
One hand slowly lifted the corner of the quilt......
"It's finally there!"
The dim room suddenly lit up, and Mo Yang was ordered to cover the quilt and lie on the bed and pretend to be the king of Jinyang and wait for the rabbit for a long time. A sword was pointed at the throat of the black-cloaked man.
Gu Ningyan pushed Wei Qianlan and walked slowly, heh, the whole person was wrapped under a long black cloak, impermeable. "Yo, it's tightly wrapped, I'm going to see who you are tonight? Mo Yang, do it. ”
Just as Mo Yang was about to provoke the opposite side to cover his face, the man in black bent down and quickly turned around and jumped out of the window.
"Chase!" Wei Qianlan gave an order, and the iron cavalry quickly surrounded the man in black, and the two sides froze in the rain.
"It's not a small courage, dare to break into the king's palace at night, it seems that your self-confidence is not small." Wei Qianlan's eyes were like an eagle, locking the man in black.
The other party did not resist, nor did he speak, so he stood under the increasingly heavy rain curtain.
"You're a woman?" Gu Ningyan felt that this person's body was slender and not like a man's rough mine.
Wei Qianlan didn't care if the other party was a man or a woman, he was just guessing who this person was?
The man in black seemed to disturb her calm heart because of Gu Ningyan's words, and there was a fierce fight with the iron cavalry in the rain.
"It's a master of Takesuke, who do you think she will be?" Wei Qianlan asked Gu Ningyan beside him with a serious face.
Gu Ningyan shook his head, "I can't see it for the time being, but she has a little spiritual power, and Wu Jie cultivates the most, and the only people who are high in this imperial city are the Situ family and the Lin family." ”
Wei Qianlan frowned, Gu Ningyan was right, only the Situ family who came back to Princess Lan at this moment, but it was strange that they should not find Situ Huangying first? How could he assassinate Ye Yuan directly?
"It seems that your iron cavalry is not very good, and not a single woman can deal with it." Gu Ningyan smiled lightly, and slowly approached Wei Qianlan's ear.
Wei Qianlan didn't get angry but nodded, "You're right, all soldiers have to be used, it seems that they have been dormant for too long." ”
Gu Ningyan was surprised that Wei Qianlan didn't give him a look, "It seems that our thoughts are the same this time, it's rare." ”
"Lord Wang, his subordinates are incompetent, so they let people run away." The Iron Cavalry knelt in the rain and pleaded guilty.
"It's okay, I don't blame you, and this person's body method is a little weird, it seems to be between Takesuke and the spirit, you are indeed not that person's opponent." Gu Ningyan took the lead and preempted Wei Qianlan's words.
The iron cavalry knelt in the rain curtain and looked up at their own prince, only to see that the prince had cold eyes and did not say anything to punish them. After a moment, he spoke, "Since the future princess has been convicted of you, then you all retreat." ”
Everyone put down their hearts that mentioned their throats, as if they were amnesty, "Thank you, thank you, thank you for the future princess." ”
Gu Ningyan waved his hand to let everyone go down, and then entered the room, at this time, Ye Yuan had already been carried out of the secret room of the room.
Sixiang put the person on the couch steadily, pointed to the blue and black face, and said, "Master, his soul has begun to dissipate again." ”
"Phoenix Blood must be found as soon as possible to save his life." Gu Ningyan eagerly informed Wei Qianlan.
Wei Qianlan was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Phoenix blood is the treasure of the Wu clan, the Wu clan perished a hundred years ago, and the things you are looking for are rare in the world." ”
"Then you arrange for someone to guard him, and I'll go find him." Gu Ningyan instructed Wei Qianlan and prepared to go out.
Wei Qianlan grabbed her wrist and brushed her by, "Where are you looking?" The Witch Clan is long gone. ”
"The place where the Wu clan lived a hundred years ago was called the Yin Cliff, and the Ten Thousand Snake Cave was in the Yin Cliff, where I can come back, I can naturally go again." Gu Ningyan's attitude insisted.
"Don't die, it's raining at the moment, if you want to go to tomorrow, I'll arrange someone to go with you tomorrow." Wei Qianlan forcibly stopped Gu Ningyan from leaving.
"Master, what King Lan said is right, and Ye Yuan's life is okay for the time being, I just need to protect him with ghost energy, don't worry about it first." The four elephants even persuaded him.
Gu Ningyan finally calmed down under the persuasion of Wei Qianlan and Sixiang, agreed to Sixiang's suggestion, and left him to take care of Ye Yuan personally.
Looking at her leaving, Wei Qianlan's expression became more and more solemn.
Picking up the star building, Situ Chengming glared angrily at the man in black in front of him, he didn't expect to miss, he thought that everything would go smoothly.
The man in black stood silently to the side, waiting for Situ Chengming to speak.
After a while, Situ Chengming said solemnly to the man in black: "Let's follow the second plan." ”
The man in black nodded and left.
Day 2.
Lan Wangfu woke up to the noise of Situ Huangying.
When Situ Huangying woke up, she found herself waking up in a damp and dark room, and wanted to go out but found that the door was locked, so she kept calling noisily, despite the sound of footsteps passing by, no one dared to pay attention to her, or even let her scream like this.
Gonggong Chang came to bring King Lan to the palace again and stopped Gu Ningyan from leaving, but this time he came with the emperor's holy decree and invited King Lan and Gu Ningyan into the palace.
When Wei Qianlan and Gu Ningyan stepped into the Qinzheng Palace, they saw an unexpected person, Gu Zhenwen.
"I summoned Prime Minister Gu and King Lan to come today, first, for King Jinyang, secondly, for the marriage between King Lan and Gu Ningyan, and secondly, I heard that King Lan, your iron cavalry has entered the city?"
Wei Qianlan raised his eyebrows and calmed down, "If you go back to the emperor, when your brother came to the imperial city, he brought a few people to protect him, and he has not entered the city outside the city. ”
The emperor's eyes like beasts stared at King Lan's expression tightly, and only when he found that there was nothing abnormal did he ease and laugh, "Doesn't King Lan still believe in my forbidden army in the city?" ”
"No, it's just that the matter of King Jinyang has caused a lot of impact now."
"King Lan, Ning Yan, Suicheng's army is coming to Suicheng, you better hand over King Jinyang to the emperor as soon as possible, otherwise there will be a rebellion." Gu Zhenwen's voice sounded very eager.
Gu Ningyan burst out laughing, "Prime Minister Gu asked you to call me my full name Gu Ningyan, not Ning Yan, we are not that familiar." ”
"Gu Ningyan, you should be content, Prime Minister Gu doesn't care about you ruining the Gu family." The emperor seems to be kind enough to persuade her.
Hmph, the emperor is really good at finding someone, if it were someone else, she might be able to say it, but she definitely didn't have a good word for Gu Zhenwen, "I'm sorry emperor, King Jinyang is not a life that the prince in the palace can save, and he can only die in your hands." ”
"The Queen Mother has arrived."
The Queen Mother walked into the main hall with the support of the palace maids and eunuchs, and there was obvious hatred in her eyes when she saw Gu Ningyan. "The mourning family has already heard Gu Ningyan's words when they came in, what do you mean that there is only one death in our hands?"
"King Jinyang's soul was scattered by the dragon's back, can the imperial doctors conjure spirits?" Wei Qianlan lightly replied to the Queen Mother's words.
Gu Ningyan raised his eyebrows and was silent, waiting to see what happened.
"Could she be?" After being shocked, the Queen Mother pointed at Gu Ningyan and asked rhetorically.
