Chapter Twenty-Seven: Bloodstained Qimen
The thin young man Changsheng was still kneeling on the ground, no one asked him to get up, he never dared to get up. Hearing his sister tell like this, the young man was stunned for a while.
"There are more than a thousand martial fighters here, what are you going to exchange for their lives?" Su Yuqi smiled leisurely, but there was a cold look in his eyes.
Miss Qinghe realized in her heart at this time that if it weren't for the young little prince's intention to release the water, it would be impossible for her to win.
Why did Su Xiaowang give her a girl she never knew to put water? Qinghe thought about it for a long time, but he didn't figure it out.
Su Xiaowang asked her what she would exchange for the lives of more than a thousand martial artists, but she didn't understand. Where else does she have but a life?
Could it be that Su Xiaowang means that these people are dead?
"That...... The slave has only one life. Qinghe hesitated to speak.
"Your life is worth nothing to me." Su Yuqi paused and emphasized: "Even the life of a martial artist is not as good as that." ”
Qi Yunxiang suddenly turned his head to look at Su Yuqi: "This little girl is not your person?" ”
"When did I say she was my person? Have you seen me go out with a maidservant? ”
"I thought you had found a dishman, or maybe your hobby changed. But also, how can you change your hobbies when you marry a man who even marries a relative? Then what did you do marrying Ling Ziqi? ”
"Inheritance. In the future, there will be five Lingzi, six Lingzi, and eight Lingzi, and maybe there will be. As the only seedling of my Lao Tzu, I never want to be as irresponsible as him. gave birth to five, seven or six, so as to support the Su family. Yunxiang, are you off topic? If you keep grinding, it will be dark. ”
"It's okay, just turn on the lamp when it's dark. Night Fight. ”
Cai Ye kindly reminded: "Two princes, Miss Qinghe is still kneeling on the ground." You're trying to give people an explanation. ”
"She is the first one to talk to this king. However, since you have spoken, this king will make an exception for you. Little girl, otherwise, let's gamble on a game. If you win, the king will spare the life of this man. If you lose, you die with them. ”
Qinghe blurted out: "Okay! ”
Changsheng stopped: "Sister! You can't say yes! It's going to die! ”
Qinghe scolded: "Shut up! ”
Su Yuqi stared at her: "This king didn't say anything about how to gamble, you just agreed so quickly, you are not afraid of losing?" ”
"If you win, you can get more than a thousand lives. If he loses, it will only be an additional corpse. No matter how you calculate it, this bet is a good deal. ”
"You're a bold and cheerful man. It's good. This king will not embarrass you. Let's guess how about odd and even numbers? ”
Qinghe was confused: "Odd and even numbers? How to guess? ”
"Just guess if these warriors are odd or even. You guess first. ”
Su Yuqi's hand gestured over a group of martial artists.
It was already twilight, and more than a thousand warriors were standing in front of the palace in a disorderly manner, and it was impossible to count them at all. Qinghe looked at Su Yuqi blankly. This gameplay is actually regarded as Su Yuqi releasing water to her.
It just depends on how lucky she is today.
Both Ye Ye and Qi Yunxiang looked at Su Yuqi, their eyes met in the air, and they both turned away leisurely and threw themselves at the martial fighters.
Su Yuqi leisurely: "Say it." Which do you choose? ”
Qinghe closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and said: "Singular!" "Whether you can win the bet or not can only depend on the will of God.
The warriors all looked at this side with either blankness or fear. Life is in the hands of others, and what can be done is very limited, just waiting for the judgment of fate.
Su Yuqi's tone was extremely light: "Then I'll guess the double number." Su Jia, you go and let them catch the right stand. ”
Qinghe was extremely nervous, but Su Yuqi was extremely leisurely. Qi Cai and the others even had an attitude of watching the show, and they looked at Su Jia commanding the warriors without a glance.
Under the command of Su Jia, the warriors stood in pairs, and soon divided the winners and losers.
Even.
Qinghe lost without any suspense.
Su Yuqi said leisurely: "It's just right, there is no need to group it again." Two by two, let's fight. ”
In the darkening twilight, a large group fight was staged. Qinghe stared blankly, his mind empty.
I put my life into it, and no one could be saved, it seems that even God is so cruel, aiding and abetting, ignoring this killing.
The last bit of twilight also faded into silence. The sky was dark, there were no stars and no moon, it was as dark as a cloud of thick ink, Su Yuqi and Qi Yunxiang did not move, nor did they order people to hold the lamp.
A theater viewing has become a theater listening. I can hear the screams in my ears, but I can't see anyone. But there was already blood in his nose, and it was getting thicker and thicker.
"Is this going to rain?" After a long time, Su Yuqi suddenly asked.
"I guess so." Dish Ye said.
Qi Yunxiang said: "It's raining a lot recently. Again with the heavy rain like the other day, the people will be sad this year. ”
Su Yuqi said: "Yunxiang, you have been worried about the country and the people since you were born, and you can be called an example of a hundred officials. ”
Qi Yunxiang was careless: "As a minister, isn't this what you should do?" After a pause, the conversation changed: "Aqi, if you do this, I'm afraid tomorrow's court won't be peaceful." ”
Su Yuqi was silent for a moment before he said, "It should come, it will always come." ”
Qi Yunxiang was also silent for a while, but still asked what he wanted to ask: "If someone makes a big fuss about this, what will you do?" ”
Su Yuqi suddenly sneered: "Isn't that better?" I can see who is on my side and who is on my side. ”
"After all, there are people who are right and wrong, so you are not afraid of accidental injury?"
"There is never a shortage of loyal, patriotic, and capable people."
Qi Yunxiang was silent for a while, and then said like a sigh: "Aqi, since you returned from the battlefield, stand on top of the court......
But he didn't say any more. Su Yuqi didn't ask, stood up, and asked Yu Ye: "Xuanlin, do you want to continue watching for a while?" ”
Zhou Ye also stood up and said lightly: "Su Ri has long been accustomed to seeing life and death in the martial arts arena, and it is actually not interesting to watch. It's just a few more people dying at a time. ”
"Then go back. Su Jia, clean up the gate of the prince of Yunxiang. Remember, not a drop of blood is allowed. ”
Su Jia asked, "Then, what about the rest of the martial fighters?" ”
Cai Ye replied for Su Yuqi: "Let's arrange to go to the Bamo Courtyard first." Plan for another day. ”
"That'...... What about this Qinghe girl? ”
Qinghe, who has been stunned, is Su Yuqi's trophy. Su Jia could naturally see that his own king still valued this trophy a little.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have put water on her again and again.
This girl's courage is indeed praised.
Su Yuqi glanced at Qinghe, who was still kneeling, "It's okay to send it to the Bamu Courtyard too." ”
The screaming did not stop, and this place was as quiet as a valley for a moment.
The temple was a gathering place for warriors, and it was always only for men, so it was a forbidden place for women.
"Don't! I'll go for my sister! Please don't let my sister go to that kind of place! Changsheng walked to Su Yuqi in a panic, kowtowing like pounding garlic.
Su Yuqi's face couldn't be seen clearly in the dark, and the cold voice was not so real in the noisy environment: "If you want to accompany her, then it's up to you." ”
Although he may not be able to protect his sister with his thin body, it is better than letting her go alone. Prince Su had already given his sister and brother great grace, Changsheng thought like this, and was grateful to the indifferent Su Yuqi.
Su Yuqi took Yu Ye's arm and left the door of Qi Mansion indifferently, Qi Yunxiang stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the figures of the two gradually disappearing in the night, his expression was also indifferent, and there was a little distantness in the indifference.
A heavy rain at night washed away the bloody gas in front of King Qi's mansion, leaving not even a trace of blood.
Su Yuqi made a turn on the road in the morning, passed in front of the door of King Qi's mansion, and saw that it was clean as usual, and there was no trace of blood.
The door opened from the inside, and Qi Yunxiang, who was dressed in court clothes, walked out. Su Yuqi grabbed the reins of the horse and smiled at him, "Yunxiang." ”
Qi Yunxiang's face was slightly tired, but his eyes were still bright. Seeing Su Yuqi riding a horse, he also ordered the servants to lead the horse.
He is a civil official, and Su Ri does not like to be public, and he always goes to the court in a carriage. But that doesn't mean his horseback riding skills are bad.
Whether it is riding or martial arts, he can actually be called superb.
Su Yuqi and other servants led the horse, and saw Yun Xiang jump on the horse's back before urging the horse to go.
Yun Xiang caught up and didn't say much, and the two galloped towards the palace side by side. Dismount in front of the dismount monument, hand over the reins of the horse to the palace people, and the two walked into the palace.
Other officials also entered the palace one after another, met the two of them, saluted and greeted, and their eyes were different. Apparently they all knew what had happened yesterday.
The inner city of Kyoto is just such a big place, where large and small princes and nobles, civil and military officials, gathered, and if there is a wind and grass on a long day, it can alarm half of the city, not to mention that so many people have died.
No one spoke of yesterday's events to their faces. Only An Chen Wang Chen Yu mentioned a sentence in Su Yuqi's ear: "Aqi, did you miss the confession of the criminal I asked for that day?" ”
Su Yuqi said: "There shouldn't be." What, what's missing? ”
"The background information of the criminal is incomplete, I'll show it to you later."
"It's been a long time since that case, why hasn't it been closed yet?"
"A little trouble."
That's just an insignificant person, an insignificant case, and it won't be closed several times. Su Yuqi knew that this was Chen Yu hinting that there would be trouble today.
The trouble was expected, and the trouble was planned, and no trouble is a problem.
Su Yuqi smiled faintly at Chen Yu and said: "Brother Wang is becoming more and more cautious, such a case can be handled for more than ten or twenty days, what you know is that you are in trouble, and those who don't know think you are lazy." ”
Chen Hao smiled helplessly: "You, you also learn with sharp teeth and sharp mouth." Glancing at Qi Yunxiang next to Su Yuqi, he teased: "Did you learn from Yunxiang?" ”
"Brother Wang came to pluck me, obviously Aqi was a sharp-toothed and ruthless and black-bellied child, where did he learn from me?"
