Chapter 172: The Palace Blooms with a Blood-colored Flower (6,000 words)
Cheng Qi was pushed by Cheng Yan to stumble a few steps, and sat down on the cold floor tiles in the hall, and the palace maid next to her hurriedly helped her up, and asked uneasily: "Miss Qi?" What's wrong? Blood on your face..."
Somehow, Duan Guifei, who heard the movement, got up suddenly, and then walked to the window with a solemn expression, when she saw the turbulent situation outside, her calm eyes rarely panicked.
What's going on?
Didn't you say that the army would rise tonight?
How did the sixth child advance privately!
Duan Guifei's nails under the sleeves were clenched into the palm of his hand because of the clenched fists driven by nervousness and anger.
It's a big deal.
Reckless!
Duan Guifei took a deep breath and exhaled again, knowing that everything she had carefully planned would be in vain tonight, and the sixth child was really eager to succeed this time.
And the emperor didn't care about Duan Guifei, he was hidden in the dark, and when he heard the screams of the tsunami in the mountains just now, the whole person was like an ant on the drum, and he was shocked and couldn't speak.
At this moment, seeing Cheng Qi being thrown in by a handsome young man, the emperor hurriedly got up and went over, looked at the deep wound on her face, a trace of pity and regret flashed in his eyes, and immediately asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Cheng Qi was also very anxious, this mutiny was too sudden, so he had to say: "Your Majesty, someone has rebelled." ”
The emperor was amazed: "Who is it!" ”
"It's Tang Yao."
Duan Guifei, who was standing in front of the window, said coldly.
Cheng Qi looked over, the woman was as luxurious as a jewel, her side face was as thrilling as beauty, her cold eyes stared at the scene of the fight outside, and the panic dissipated, as if covered with a layer of haze, which was unbearable.
"Tang Yao?"
The emperor glared when he heard this, walked over to the window in a few steps, and looked at Tang Yao a few steps away, he was as shocked as if he had been struck by thunder, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand and pointed at him tremblingly: "You... You traitor, I treat you well, you are my confidant, I single-handedly built you a thousand machine army, but now you are here to rebel against me! ”
When Tang Yao heard this, he looked over and saw Duan Guifei.
The man was fortunately not angry.
"Your Majesty."
Tang Yao said coldly: "The general trend has gone, it's time for you to change people." ”
At the same time, Duan Guifei took a step back to the side.
Cheng Qihu glanced suspiciously.
And Tang Yao knew that this was Duan Guifei creating an opportunity for herself, her sword eyebrows were upside down, she flicked the Xuantie sword on the side of her leg with her backhand, jumped up violently, and raised her sword to split the window beam that was very fragile at this moment, targeting the top of the emperor's head!
The man was fat and couldn't move, so he reacted!
Tremble in the balance!
"Your Majesty, be careful!"
Cheng Qi saw the Wa Kingdom katana hanging next to him, pulled it out, and slammed the emperor away, holding the hilt with one hand and lifting the tip of the knife with the other, resisting the sword cut down by Tang Yao!
'Ding-'
This friction almost pierced the eardrums of everyone present!
But Cheng Qi is a woman in the end, and she only knows some modern fighting skills, compared to strength, she can't compete with such a strong Tang Yao, that person is so strong that the back of the knife cuts Cheng Qi's palm!
Blood splattered all over the sleeve in an instant!
The emperor shouted: "Cheng Qi! ”
"Ding—"
Another sound of soldiers striking each other sounded, it turned out that Cheng Yan used the red bead short dagger in his hand to cut off Tang Yao's sword again, it was Xuantie, it was enough to see Cheng Yan's explosive power!
Tang Yao didn't expect it, he stepped on the ground and retreated, and the snow on the soles of his shoes and the stone steps began to melt!
…
…
The hand suddenly unloaded, Cheng Qi also fell backwards in pain, she fell to the ground, panting, she was too hard, and now her two arms are almost unconscious.
"Aunt... Girl..."
The frightened palace maid next to her pointed at Cheng Qi's cuffs.
Cheng Qi followed what she was pointing at and found that the sleeves on both sides were soaked with blood, and then he realized that the skin of Fang Cai's own arm had been shattered by Tang Yao's huge brute force, and was now gurgling and bleeding.
However, these are pediatric compared to being shot.
Cheng Qi glanced back at the emperor: "Your Majesty, are you okay?" ”
The emperor is the emperor in the end, took a deep breath, and gradually regained his composure: "It's okay for me. For some reason, he glanced at Duan Guifei, who was indifferent and gloomy beside him, and he said, "Who is that young man?" ”
Cheng Qi got up with difficulty and said, "Your Majesty, forgive me, my second brother trespassed..."
"Reward!"
The emperor spoke loudly.
Cheng Qi was stunned and looked at him blankly.
Whatever you want, you'll be rewarded.
The emperor looked solemn and stood with his hands in his hands, at this moment he finally had some image of an emperor, he knew that the Qianji army led by Tang Yao must have been stopped by someone, otherwise he would have rushed in a long time ago.
It should be the Praetorian Army or...
"It's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince—"
Suddenly, a palace maid pointed outside and shouted!
When Duan Guifei heard this, her eyes tore away from the palace maid and looked out, and sure enough, the prince and the commander of the forbidden army rushed over to rescue the driver, and the two sides were in a mess, but Tang Yao did not see the figure of the six princes.
Duan Guifei was a little relieved, as long as the six princes could stay out of the matter after the incident, there would be no big problems, even if the army failed, it would be good to just ask Tang Yao and Jiang Ge to take the blame.
It's just that how could the prince know today's time.
It is certain that the crown prince knows, otherwise he would not have come so timely.
Duan Guifei thought about it, and inadvertently caught a glimpse of Cheng Yan who was fighting with Tang Yao, and the doubts in her eyes immediately dissipated.
And the red bead dagger in his hand.
It seems that Ji Beihou is right, the spies sent to kill Cheng Qi last time were killed by Cheng Yan, but I didn't expect this thinner-looking teenager to have such high skills.
…
…
Not only Duan Guifei and Ji Beihou, but even Tang Yao also underestimated Cheng Yan, he was born as a military general, and his martial arts were all open and closed, but Cheng Yan's body was strange and confused, holding a dagger and getting close, sneaking up again and again!
He was like a black cold wind, the fast Tang Yao couldn't catch it at all, and everywhere that person went, countless storms were set off, and his body was shattered!
"So fast!"
After another punch missed, Tang Yao sighed from the bottom of his heart!
Cheng Yan's expression was cold, and he spun around in mid-air, whipping his legs like a gust of wind, and slammed towards Tang Yao!
The man resisted with his arm in front of him, took the opportunity to grab Cheng Yan's ankle, and high-fived him!
Cheng Yan frowned, only to feel that a vicious aura instantly penetrated the soles of his boots and hit the top of his feet, turning his trouser legs into hell with a devastating trend, and the skin that he touched burst open!
Cheng Qi grabbed the window frame of Xuan suddenly, and half of his worried body was about to poke out: "Cheng Yan-"
Hearing this, the man threw out the dagger in his hand and dodged Tang Yao's hand, forcibly twisted his body in the air, staggered to the Xuan window, pushed Cheng Qi back, and said coldly: "I'm fine." ”
After that, Cheng Yan closed the window, and when he turned around, the red bead dagger cut his throat!
Cheng Yan was awe-inspiring, and grabbed it!
The dagger pierced straight through the back of his hand, only an inch away from his Adam's apple!
'Ding-'
An arrow suddenly flew in the distance!
Tang Yao didn't notice it, he was also pierced in the hand, let go of the dagger, and took two steps back!
Cheng Yan looked at him and found that it was the prince who had not yet put down his bow.
The man was expressionless, didn't say much, just drew his sword at his waist and began to slash the rebels!
There is a forbidden army to stop it, and the Qianji army can't fight this side, that is to say, in front of this Ziwei Palace, Cheng Yan, who is fighting Tang Yao, is the only line of defense to protect the emperor.
If he loses, the emperor will die.
But for Cheng Yan, the emperor is nothing, and it is Cheng Qi who he wants to protect.
This is the most important girl in the world.
"It's your letter."
Tang Yao pulled out the wooden arrow in his palm and said viciously.
Cheng Yan didn't speak, but this was a tacit acquiescence in Tang Yao's eyes, he spat on the blood, and the clothes on his body were shattered into pieces by Cheng Yan's attack, revealing the muscles inside that were also as messy as a checkerboard.
"Good boy, I want you to die by my sword!"
After Tang Yao finished speaking, he directly attacked with a meat fist!
Cheng Yan leaned back to dodge, took out the red bead dagger that was still in his palm, turned over on the ground, and swept his horizontal leg on Tang Yao's knee, although his leg was injured, Tang Yao's kneecap still made a terrifying breaking sound!
The man fell with a bang, but when he was about to touch the ground, he slapped the ground again, and shook his sleeves with all his might!
Two silver rays flew out of it!
Cheng Yan was hard to notice, he was hit by the two silver lights on his shoulder, but he didn't immediately feel pain, he lowered his head suspiciously, and when he saw the secret weapon clearly, his pupils trembled repeatedly!
It was something similar to a flowering hook claw, and there was a silver thread that was constantly cut, which was held in Tang Yao's hand!
The man sneered: "Look at the move!" ”
After he finished speaking, Cheng Yan snorted, it turned out that the hidden weapon attached to his shoulder had blossomed, and the delicate 'petals' were fiercely embedded in Cheng Yan's flesh, and he couldn't drag it down!
Tang Yao pulled back hard, Cheng Yan involuntarily flew out, and fell to the ground like a break!
"Poof—"
Cheng Yan immediately spurted blood.
"Cheng Yan—"
Xuan Window didn't know when he was pushed open by Cheng Qi again, it wasn't that person was reckless, but Cheng Qi knew very well that the forbidden army and the Thousand Machine Army were entangled outside the courtyard, and no one could get in, if Cheng Yan died, none of the people in Ziwei Palace would survive!
When Tang Yao heard this, he turned his head to look over, but he was faced with the katana!
He was secretly startled, and immediately shook his body to dodge, who knew that the katana immediately cut horizontally, Tang Yao didn't expect Cheng Qi's reaction to be good, and he pushed his palm away, but inadvertently exposed his back to Cheng Yan!
The man seized the opportunity created by Cheng Qi, gritted his teeth and pulled the hidden weapon off his shoulder, ignoring the flesh and blood torn off, and jumped up with the tenacious silver thread!
Tang Yao was shocked!
Oops!
Cheng Yan showed murderous intent in his eyes, the silver thread in his hand smoothly wrapped around Tang Yao's neck, and then fell down with him, not caring about the pelvic bone that was almost broken, he only didn't let go, he was bound to strangle Tang Yao to death!
But Tang Yao had already noticed that there was a hand that was horizontal in the silver thread, and he was also clutching it, but it was crossed by Cheng Yan's legs like this, and he couldn't use his strength, and blood soon filled his eyes!
"The... Damn it... Hairy boy ......"
Tang Yao couldn't help it, he hit Cheng Yan with a strong elbow, the person was already injured internally, this time, he spit out several mouthfuls of blood, and seeing that he couldn't support it, he immediately shouted: "Cheng Qi!" ”
The man tacitly looked at the red-pillar dagger on the ground, and wanted to pick it up, but was discovered by Tang Yao, the man stepped on it, no matter how Cheng Qi pushed and bumped it, he couldn't pull it out!
Tang Yao's strength in fighting against the water was too great.
Cheng Yan's gums were bleeding, and the green tendons on his forehead burst out, and he shouted: "Cheng Qi! ”
Cheng Qi turned his head, his expression was Lingran, he rushed in front of Tang Yao in one step, glanced at Cheng Yan, and without saying a word, pulled out the wooden arrow on his shoulder, and pierced Tang Yao's left eye with all his might!
"Die!"
Plasma rushed in.
Cheng Qi screamed.
As she finished shouting, everything fell into a deathly silence, a huge contrast in sound, as if everything that happened here was her hallucination.
It's just that Cheng Qi is in turmoil at the moment.
She.
Killed.
Cheng Qi slowly opened his eyes, and when he was about to see Tang Yao's tragic appearance, the person's body was pushed down by Cheng Yan, and then the person held her in his arms, very hard, but did not say a word.
"It's okay."
Cheng Yan said coldly.
Cheng Qi was stunned, remembering that when the prince executed dozens of people for mutton soup, Cheng Yan also said the same, but the short three words were exchanged for this body scar.
Cheng Qi nodded confusedly.
"Does the wound on your face still hurt?" Cheng Yan asked.
Cheng Qi shook his head.
"Ahem—"
Cheng Yan didn't have time to ask the second sentence, and began to cough violently, Cheng Qi pushed him away, but heard someone in the forbidden army not far away shouting: "Tianjing Pool!" Come and protect His Royal Highness the Crown Prince—"
When the emperor heard this, he leaned over and shouted: "Zhe'er-" rushed out to look at Cheng Yan, who was covered in blood, and still ordered as the emperor, "Cheng Yan!" Go and escort—"
"Yes!"
Cheng Yan gritted his teeth, grabbed the red pillar dagger, and broke through the rebels!
Cheng Qi knelt on the spot, looking worried.
This dog emperor.
…
…
After Tang Yao's death, those thousand machine troops really weakened, Cheng Yan led the way to kill all the way, and those rebels who besieged the prince in Tianjing Pool were quickly killed and scattered, leaving blood all over the ground.
The prince was injured and unconscious, Cheng Yan asked someone to carry him away for treatment, because the fight was too much and his physical strength was exhausted, he had to sit down by the pool, moved his legs, but kicked an object in his left boot.
Cheng Yan looked down and pulled out a familiar golden scroll in the snow.
He thought it was his own, maybe he accidentally fell out during the fight, and then stuffed it back into his sleeve, who knew that a slight jade collision sound sounded in his sleeve, and Cheng Yan was stunned.
He was holding the scroll.
What's in the sleeve is your own.
So whose is this one?
"Young Master Zongyu—"
Just when Cheng Yan was brainstorming, someone came to look for him in the distance, and at the critical moment, he didn't have time to put away this scroll together, so he subconsciously threw it into the Tianjing Pool.
The scroll chiseled through the ice and sank into the water.
Immediately, Cheng Yan lost consciousness and fainted due to serious internal injuries.
…
…
I don't know how long I slept in a daze, as if I had woken up from hibernation, Cheng Yan raised his heavy eyelids, felt the warmth around him, and turned his sour eyeballs.
It hurts, every comfortable part of my body, especially my right stomach, seems to be pressed by Tarzan.
Cheng Yan looked up with difficulty, and his face was instantly covered with black lines.
He stretched out his knuckles and knocked on Cheng Qi's forehead unceremoniously, the man hissed in pain, but he was still asleep, Cheng Yan knocked again, and the man rubbed his eyes and straightened up.
"You..."
Looking at Cheng Yan's deep eyes, Cheng Qi breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that the high fever had subsided, she reached out and touched Cheng Yan's forehead, but through the cuffs, she could see that her arms were covered with bandages.
It was Tang Yao's masterpiece.
Cheng Yan frowned, grabbed her wrist, but found that her hands were also wrapped in bandages, originally wanted to care about Cheng Qi, but he didn't expect that his injury was much worse than Cheng Qi.
Putting down his hand weakly, Cheng Yan said weakly: "Where is this?" ”
"This is the side hall of the Imperial Doctor's Department."
Cheng Qi got up, poured him a glass of water and handed it over: "You passed out that day." ”
"Passed out?"
Cheng Yan didn't believe it, and said with a cold conceit: "I'm not so fragile. ”
Cheng Qi rolled his eyes, took the water cup he drank and put it back: "It's Tang Yao, he poisoned the hidden weapon that pulled you, you had a high fever for three days and three nights, and then slept for two days, didn't you wake up." ”
Cheng Yan was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't expect that he had been asleep for five days.
"How's the mutiny?" He still asked about serious things.
Cheng Qi sat down and said: "Tang Yao died, those thousand machine troops immediately collapsed, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince led the forbidden army to quickly quell the rebellion, then Jiang Ge was beheaded on the spot, and together with Tang Yao's family, the emperor punished the two of them for a full twelve clans, and the remaining rebels were assigned as cultivators." ”
"Twelve."
Even if he was a more hard-hearted Cheng Yan, he was a little shocked when he heard that the emperor had killed the two people and the twelve clans, and the two twelve clans together were afraid that there would be thousands of people.
"More than 7,000 people were killed."
Seeing Cheng Yan's thoughts, Cheng Qi also said a little heavily: "It's really terrible to sit together." ”
Cheng Yan didn't answer, he thought about another thing.
The Six Princes.
In Cheng Qi's words, there was no mention of the six princes at all, it seemed that Duan Guifei was secretly helping to wash it, that person was successfully out of the matter, so he didn't choose to talk to Cheng Qi.
The second is Chen Wang.
The news of the six princes' planned rebellion was not that Cheng Yan sent it to the Beidong Palace to inform His Royal Highness the Prince, but that when he was about to sneak to the Beidong Palace, he saw Chen Wang coming out of it, and then quickly disappeared out of the palace.
Immediately afterwards, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince went to inform the forbidden army, and the rebellion was also quelled in a timely manner.
In this way, Chen Wang is not helping the six princes, but just an inner ghost in the six princes' party, he is ostensibly working for this little prince, but in fact, he is under the arrangement of the Chen family and is ordered by the prince's side.
It's a pity that the six princes did not show up in this mutiny.
Otherwise, the Duan family and the six princes will be finished, and in that case, the throne will definitely be the crown prince's.
The strange master can only blame that the six princes are too cautious at a young age.
"Cheng Yan."
Seeing that this person suddenly fell into deep thought, Cheng Qi waved his hand and shook it in front of his eyes: "What do you want?" ”
Cheng Yan shook his head: "It's nothing." ”
"The emperor has a decree—"
As soon as he finished speaking, the voice of Chief Manager Li came in, and the man also arrived with a few internal officials, he respectfully held a scroll of holy decrees in his hand, and said: "The emperor has an edict, and Young Master Zongyu is injured, so there is no need to kneel and listen." ”
Cheng Yan leaned back and said lightly: "Thank you for the emperor's compassion." ”
Only then did Manager Li unfold the holy decree and read: "Dachang Qinchang: Cheng Yan, the Duke of Qi, made meritorious contributions in the Tang and Jiang Rebellion, and saved the crown prince Yu Qianjun, and rewarded him with a yellow coat. ”
After that, an internal official presented a delicate black velvet box, and Cheng Qi quickly took it.
"Thank you, Emperor Longen."
Cheng Yan was not much surprised.
Manager Li knew that Cheng Yan had a cold temperament, and he also showed a strange look, and then took out another volume of holy decree from the silver plate: "The emperor has an edict, Cheng Qi kneels to accept it." ”
Cheng Qi was stunned for a moment, turned his head and looked at Cheng Yan for a few seconds, thinking that it was also a matter of saving the driver, so he knelt on the ground and listened.
"Dachang Qinchang."
Manager Li glanced at Cheng Qi more, and then said: "Cheng Qi, the Duke of Qi, was not afraid of danger in the Tang Jiang Rebellion, and he was meritorious in escorting, and he was promoted to a four-grade beauty, changed his title to Chun, and moved to Xiandexuan. ”
Cheng Qi heard this.
Grass mud horses.
What can I do now?
I thought that the emperor would be even more disgusted if his face was injured for the second time, but I didn't expect this middle-aged greasy fat house uncle to come out without following the routine, but now it's good, not only do I have to enter the palace, but I also fucking rise higher and higher.
Isn't that putting the cart before the horse.
"Miss Qi?"
Seeing that Cheng Qi was stunned and didn't thank him for receiving the order, Mr. Li kindly reminded him: "Miss Qi, what are you still doing in a daze, get up and accept the order, this is a great joy." ”
What a happy event.
Cheng Qi was speechless, this kind of good thing is for you, do you want it.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
She took the holy decree, only felt that there was a thousand pounds of weight, and watched Manager Li and the others go out, and only she and Cheng Yan were left in the spacious dormitory, but there was nothing to say between the two of them.
Cheng Qi casually put the holy decree next to her, sitting with her back to Cheng Yan, a little melancholy, now in this irreversible situation, she really didn't know what to do.
"If you don't want to enter the palace, we can slowly figure out a way."
Who knew that Cheng Yan suddenly said behind her: "Anyway, there are still more than three months before you enter the palace." ”
When Cheng Qi heard this, he looked back at him in surprise.
"What did you say?"
Cheng Qi stood up and walked over, and asked incredulously, "Don't you want me to enter the palace?" ”
Cheng Yan's face was still cold, although he said reasonable words: "If the palace is absolutely safe, and you can be pampered for the rest of your life, without worrying, I am naturally willing." "But you see, even this airtight imperial city is always in danger of killing, so I don't want you to enter the palace." ”
Cheng Qi looked at him and blinked.
"Then," she said hesitantly, "what can you do?" ”
"Didn't I say that?"
Cheng Yan stretched out his hand and pinched the root of the mountain, looking very tired: "There will always be a way, there are still three months before you enter the palace, we can think about it slowly." ”
Cheng Qi felt that this person was farting.
She sat back bored, staring at the decree in a daze.
Cheng Yan glanced at her back, and unconsciously, thinking about the one he picked up by the Tianjing Pool when he went to save the prince that day, and the other scroll.
I didn't expect that there was an identical scroll in this world.
Who will it be?
What's written in it?
It's a pity that Tianjing Pool belongs to the inner palace, and he can't go in for a while.
Cheng Yan sighed silently, touched the side of the bed, his scroll had always been close to his body, and carefully opened it to take a look, and sure enough, the new sentence 'soldiers are coming to the city' disappeared, and the sentence that belonged to Cheng Qi was in a foreign land, and the color of the handwriting was restored, and there was no sign of gradual disappearance.
