Chapter 21: Destroy It!
Chapter 21: Destroy It!
When I went out of the emperor's view, it was the moon and the wind was high.
Before he stepped out of the gate, a person flashed out of the flowers outside the view, and the lantern in Tan Gonggong's hand happened to let Shi Zhongyu see the appearance of that person. The man was wearing the clothes of a eunuch, but his expression and demeanor were by no means eunuchs, he was of medium stature, as if he was born in martial arts, but unfortunately there was a wine-colored smell on his official face, which made people look at it.
When he saw Gonggong Tan, he immediately eagerly greeted him.
Shi Zhongyu was far away, and only saw Gonggong Tan whispering something to the man, and the man looked at her with a frown. Dark, far away, even with this double obstruction of vision, Shi Zhongyu still felt that gaze was like a knife, and he couldn't wait to crush her.
Looks like she's in the way of others. It also shows that this person and Father-in-law Tan are in a group, and they don't trust each other, so one came to grab the key, and the other must have kept the box, just waiting for everything to be ready to witness the historical moment together. No wonder, Grandpa Tan could happily agree to her, because as long as she took out the key, the box could be opened immediately.
She stared at that person, afraid that because of the appearance of a third party, the conditions for her and Tan Gonggong to talk would change, but after a closer look, that person seemed to have seen it, thought about it carefully, and suddenly remembered that person was the secretary of the military department, Zhao Bifan's father Zhao Zhixin Zhao Shaobao This old guy has been to Yuwang Mansion a few times, and once she accidentally saw it.
At this time, when he saw Zhao Zhixin, Shi Zhongyu's heart immediately shone into a bright light. It turns out that Gonggong Tan is not the emperor's person, not the queen's person, but colluding with the ministers that Murong Ke, isn't it the knife they want to use? That's why they wanted to get the box so much, and Zhao Zhixin married his daughter into Yuwang's Mansion.
Your Highness, you must be sober. Whatever is in that box, don't be taken advantage of by two ill-intentioned old bastards
She shouted nervously in her heart, but saw that Zhao Zhixin's figure disappeared in a flash, while Gonggong Tan turned around and looked at her, walked forward, and went in the direction of Yingchun Palace. She didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly followed, but kept a certain distance.
Along the way, she looked carefully, but there was not even a shadow of a person. This proves that Zhao Zhixin did not leave, but cleaned up the scene in advance. At this juncture, the palace is in chaos, they will not kill innocent people, meaninglessly expose themselves, but make people unconscious or sleepy, I am afraid that they can do it.
Shi Zhongyu knew that the old eunuch was on the verge of bursting away because of her anger, plus Zhao Zhixin, who was unpredictable and nowhere to be seen, she couldn't make a mistake. It felt like walking a tightrope, and at any moment you could fall into the abyss and fall to pieces. So she was very cooperative, and she didn't play any tricks until she saw the gate of Yingchun Palace, and she didn't stop until she saw the gate of Yingchun Palace.
Father-in-law Tan was like having eyes on the back of his head, Shi Zhongyu stopped, he also stood down, and said sharply, "Open the doors and windows, so that our family can see you." His face stiffened, thinking that he had endured hardship, "Seeing that you are also smart, then don't violate our family's bottom line." You see, you can't run. ”
Zhao Zhixin next to him also looked the same, his eyes were like sharp arrows, and he wanted to shoot a few transparent holes in her.
is because she has no fear, and her attitude is not afraid of death; It's because they don't want to make a big deal out of it; It's because they are in a hurry to open the box, and they can't really dig three feet into the ground for the emperor and queen to find out; Because they thought she was a caged bird and couldn't run, she won such a small opportunity.
She only has such a little bargaining chip, so she has to make full use of it, and would rather die herself than let Murong Ke fall into the trap
"Father-in-law and Lord Zhao can rest assured." Seeing that Tan Fu's voice was not accepted at all, she knew that everyone in Yingchun Palace had also fallen into a "deep sleep", and she also let go of her voice and said, "My father-in-law praised me for being smart, so I should know that I will die faster when I leave the palace, even if you ask me to run, I will stay in this palace and not leave." ”
Gonggong Tan snorted and didn't speak, just took a few steps back.
Zhao Zhixin and Tan Gonggong advanced and retreated together, but when they were wrong, they reached into their arms, took out a thing, and threw it at Shi Zhongyu.
Shi Zhongyu instinctively caught it, and he didn't have to look at it when he started it, and he knew that it was the box just by his touch. Because of its special material, it has not been seen not only in Dayan, but also in modern times. It's like the oldest wood, but it's sturdy and fits perfectly. It is said that only flame can extinguish it.
"Don't play tricks." Zhao Zhixin added a threat.
"You're very long-winded." Shi Zhongyu retorted unceremoniously, "But I want to remind the two of you that there are two keys, and you have to cooperate with the mantra of unlocking to open the box, don't think that if I take out the key, you will cure me." If I am poisoned, I will not be able to open the box even if I have a key. After all, I just wanted to see what killed me, and there was no need for anyone to take any chances. She made up another reason that the other party couldn't resist, and then carefully bypassed their force attack and went straight to her room.
The doors and windows were wide open, Tan Fu and Zhao Zhixin, whose eyes were colder than poisonous snakes, stared at the small figure and walked into the house, lit the candle in a hurry, took a pair of big scissors, and then climbed onto the bed.
"What is she going to do?" Zhao Zhixin asked nervously, "She won't destroy that thing, right?" ”
"Rest assured, people cherish their lives. Lord Zhao and our family are here, she will lose her head when she drops that flower gun, if she is fine, how can she kill herself? ”
Zhao Zhixin breathed a sigh of relief.
It's that he's too concerned. Gonggong Tan's martial arts are strong, even stronger than Yuwang Murong Ke, who is known as the number one master of Dayan, how can that little slut have no power to restrain chickens, how can he do anything under their noses?
He turned his gaze to the house, and when he saw Shi Zhongyu's orderly movements, he felt strange in his heart, but he didn't know that Shi Zhongyu's back was covered in cold sweat.
She got up from the bed that had allowed her to spend many happy nights, tore the layers of gauze on the top of the bed, pulled out the beautiful palace silk that hung the thickness of her thumb by the bedpost, took out the scissors, and vigorously cut the two sections tied with the huge knots. Then, she took the quilt, placed the box on top of the quilt, sat back on the bed, and began to dismantle the silk and knots.
"What is she going to do?" Zhao Zhixin asked. After all, there is a distance, even if the martial arts are high and the eyesight is strong, it is not very real.
"That's smart." Gonggong Tan sighed, "If she wasn't Murong Ke's sweetheart, our family really wanted to give her a way to live." When talking about Murong Ke, Gonggong Tan actually called him by his name, and his pretense of respect was also thrown away.
"No wonder she said that even if we dig three feet into the ground, we won't be able to find the key." "Because," he continued, "she had woven the key into a knot of the rope of the bed. Who would notice such a strange place? ”
"She's tearing down the second paragraph?" Seeing that Shi Zhongyu took out something from the first section of the palace silk, turned his head and started to dismantle the second one, Zhao Zhixin asked.
"Sure enough, there are two keys." Grandpa Tan nodded, "I have seen the key before, and I have studied the box, and I always feel that something is missing, but now it seems that she is not lying." ”
In order to win their trust, Shi Zhongyu's words are naturally half-truths and half-falses, so that people can't tell the difference, otherwise how can the two old foxes be so easy to deceive? And the key was simply together, and now the so-called removal of the second key was purely to stall for time so that she could do something.
She was so scared that she couldn't control her hands and trembled. For she knew that if she used this trick, she would surely die. She died once and knew how terrible death was. But compared to Murong Ke's life, her life is nothing. Until this moment, she didn't know what it meant to be in love, and it was really not caring about herself. It's not greatness, but in this world, there will always be someone more important than yourself.
She seemed to be in a hurry to dismantle ... [This chapter is not finished, please click on the next page to continue reading!] ]
