As soon as the military commander gave the order, the dozen or so assassins rushed up in unison, and the east came to resist with swords, but it was a drop in the bucket.

I don't know if it's red-eyed, or if my hands and feet are not accurate. Suddenly slashed at the emperor, Nan Jingpei subconsciously retreated, the edge of the cliff was full of loose rubble, where to step on it steadily. The gravel broke and tumbled off the cliff.

He only grabbed forward, grasping the back of the assassin's sword, and holding the general.

When the assassin saw that his weapon had been snatched away, he feared that he would kill him in turn, so he clung to the hilt of his sword and pulled it back with all his might.

Nan Jingpei's hand didn't have the strength, so he couldn't grab him at all, and the back of the knife was withdrawn from his hand, causing a hot pain in his palm.

He didn't care about any of this, and subconsciously wanted to hold on to something. But the surroundings were empty, and he really had nowhere to hold on. With a slight sliding of his body, the person fell straight down like a kite with a broken string.

The Assassin realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly reached out to grab only half of the Emperor's broken sleeve.

"Your Majesty!"

Donglai lay down on the broken arm, and saw that Nan Jingpei's body was getting smaller and smaller. He heard the sound of the rushing water more and more clearly in his ears, and finally, with a loud pop, he faintly saw a white wave flash over the river, and then the surrounding area was calm again.

When Wu Bei saw the emperor fall off the cliff, he was also annoyed in his heart, and hated to kick the assassin who cut the emperor in the ass.

He bent down to look at the cliff, and if he fell from here, he would be crushed. Although there is a river below, the water is turbulent, and people fall into the river and rush downstream in an instant, even Da Luo Jinxian is afraid that he will not be able to save him.

Wu Bei then pointed to Donglai again: "Tie up this fat man for me." ”

Donglai struggled, and those assassins grabbed their arms and hugged their thighs, and in an instant they tied him up and tied him strongly.

Wu Bei dragged Donglai back to the Zen Monastery from the back mountain with a piece of hemp rope, just as King Xin and Wen Yuan had already walked towards him one after the other.

Wu Bei knelt down on one knee: "Your Highness, your subordinates originally wanted to capture the Dog Emperor alive, but their subordinates missed for a while, and the Dog Emperor fell off the cliff." The subordinates had no choice but to arrest the dog emperor's attendants and hand them over to the prince. ”

King Xin's eyes flickered, and he hurriedly covered his mouth and coughed a few times.

"It's useless!" Wen Yuan scolded softly.

Wu Bei flattened his mouth, got up and said: "Lord Wen, what you said is easy, didn't you also lose your wife and lose your troops when you caught the Shen family?" ”

Wen Yuan was the most reluctant to be mentioned about his last defeat, and when he heard him say this, his anger rushed up uncontrollably.

"Can this be the same? Marquis Changxin promised to help us, on the premise that the life of the Dog Emperor would be left and he would be forced to take the throne. Now that you have killed the Dog Emperor, if the Marquis of Changxin repents because of this, can you afford the consequences? ”

Wu Bei stuck out his tongue and said: "What are you afraid of, the first emperor only had two sons, His Royal Highness and Nan Jingpei, and now that Nan Jingpei is dead, the big position should naturally fall on the head of our Highness." Marquis Changxin is also our Royal Highness's grandfather, how can he regret his blood relationship? ”

Nan Yinglin frowned and shouted, "Shut up for this king." ”

He also has no bottom in his heart, he and Nan Jingpei's mother are two sisters born to the same father, although Nan Jingpei's biological mother died early, but after all, it is also a bloodline of the Ji family.

Changxinhou is his grandfather, but he is also Nan Jingpei's grandfather!

Although Chang Xinhou has always been partial to himself, he has little concern for Nan Jingpei. But if Nan Jingpei really dies and causes a situation of cannibalism among compatriots, will Changxinhou still support him?

What's more, Nan Jingpei is not without a son, Concubine Shen has just given birth to a prince, won't he become a threat to his succession? If Changxin Hou in turn supports this baby to become emperor, and his name is not right, wouldn't he be busy in vain?

He suddenly remembered Changxinhou's solemn gaze, and gently stroked his wrist, where the skin was still a little red and swollen, which was pinched by Changxinhou before he moved.

He looked at himself solemnly, word by word, and told him that he must save the emperor's life. He wanted a Zen position, not a murderous king.

He shuddered, Nan Jingpei died, and he couldn't shake off his hat of killing kings. Marquis Changxin pays the most attention to reputation, how can he bear the charge of killing the king with himself?

Nan Yinglin grabbed Wu Bei's clothes, his eyes almost erupted with fire, he stared at Wu Bei, for a long time, he jerked Wu Bei and pushed Wu Bei half a meter away.

"Your Highness, the top priority is to control the son of the Dog Emperor first, so that the Marquis of Changxin will have no chance to regret it." Wen Yuan attached himself to Nan Yinglin and whispered.

A word woke up the person in the dream, Nan Yinglin was in a trance for a moment, and looked at Wen Yuan: "Is this okay?" ”

……

Ah Ruo hugged Chengyuan and gently tossed it, this child didn't know what was going on tonight, crying very hard, as if it hurt somewhere. I called the doctor to check it, but I didn't find anything wrong.

"Oh, the little prince won't cry, my father has already gone to Baoxiang Temple to pray for blessings, and my mother will get better soon." Ah Ruo held the child and groaned leisurely.

Shen Yunzhen ate another pair of ten absolute soups in the afternoon, and suppressed the toxicity for the time being. This medicine can only solve the problem for a while, but it cannot cure the root of the disease.

She lay in the room for days, and Liu Eryue did not allow her to go out, for fear of the wind and cold, which would aggravate her condition.

She heard the cry of a child outside the house, so she got up and got out of bed to look for her shoes.

"Ah Ruo, why does Yuan'er keep crying?" She reached out and probed the child's forehead, and she didn't feel a fever, but she had been crying for too long, and her cheeks were swollen and red.

Ah Ruo shook his head: "The slave doesn't know, the little prince has been crying, and the slave and maid can't be coaxed no matter how much they coax." ”

Shen Yunzhen also felt a little flustered, she thought that she was poisoned and weak, but now she saw that Yuan'er couldn't stop crying, she suddenly frowned: "Has the emperor returned to the palace?" ”

Ah Ruo shook his head: "Not yet." ”

Liu February, who brought a bowl of pig's trotter soup to Ah Ruo, took the prince, and said, "Drink it, you can only milk the prince if you drink it." Turning around, he looked at Shen Yunzhen with a motherly expression: "The master is just a little better, why don't you rest in bed?" ”

She sat down in the cloister with the scarlet pillar: "My heart is a little messy, as if something big is about to happen." ”

Liu February, she didn't say anything, thinking that she had been sick and was in a bad mood. hugged the child with one hand and helped her with the other: "Niangniang should go back and rest, the slave will take care of the prince." ”

She glanced at Liu Eryue and was about to get up, but she heard a small palace maid in the courtyard carrying hot water scream. With a bang, the basin buckled to the ground, and she pointed to the palace wall and shouted, "There are people up there!" ”

Xiao Shunzi suddenly came out and asked, "Where?!" ”

There seemed to be a dark shadow flashing on the palace wall, but I couldn't see it clearly, and suddenly there were a few cat meows.

Liu February's eyebrows and said, "Ruizhu, you are also making a fuss, isn't it just a cat?" Don't scream, beware of scaring your master. ”

Shen Yunzhen entered the room, the courtyard was so flustered that she coughed a little, and her throat was a little fishy, she knew that she was coughing up blood again, so she made a ball of handkerchief and threw it aside.

Liu Eryue also saw it, and was afraid that she would be sad, so she didn't ask much, and took the handkerchief while she wasn't paying attention.

Liu February, squeezed out a little smile and said: "Niangniang, don't worry, the Buddha of this Baoxiang Temple is surprisingly effective, and the first queen often goes to Baoxiang Temple to repay her vows when she is there, and I heard that every time it is effective." ”

Shen Yunzhen glanced at her and didn't say anything. Nan Jingpei has never believed in gods and Buddhas, and this time I am afraid that she was forced by her illness to have no way out, so she believed what Chang Xinhou said. In fact, she doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, so instead of letting him trek through mountains and rivers to Baoxiang Temple to pray, it is better for him to stay by her side.

Yuan'er seemed to be tired of crying, lying in Liu Eryue's arms and wheezing, with tears still hanging on her little face, and her nose was slightly open. He cried like this, Shen Yun was really distressed, although his physical strength was not good, he still hugged him and coaxed him for a while, Yuan'er finally quieted down in Shen Yunzhen's arms, and fell asleep peacefully after a while.

She was afraid that she would wake up the child by coughing up blood in the middle of the night, so she handed the child over to Ah Ruo to take care of.

Liu Eryue lay down slowly: "Master, the slave will go and cook you some soothing soup, you can rest after drinking." ”

She rolled over and stared blankly at his pillow. gave birth to Yuan'er, and he was not with her for a day. Even if he is busy with government affairs, he will take the time to talk to her. Tonight he was away, and she realized how long the night was.

The room was quiet, and I could hear the ticking of a louder plane in front of the window. It was Nan Jingpei who asked the inner house to make it for her to play, imitating a waterwheel in the countryside, and the small wooden bucket containing water on it can also be disassembled, just like a real waterwheel. It's just smaller, and it can be timed.

Her ears were filled with more leaky voices, and she let out a long sigh, leaning on Nan Jingpei's pillow with one hand, and gently closing her eyes.

"Are you thinking about him?"

She shuddered when a man's voice came from the room.

She rolled over and sat up, and saw a cold sword piercing through the curtain, pointing at her throat.

She was silent, and saw a hand reach into the curtain and gently lift the curtain halfway.

"Is that you?" She frowned: "You're still alive?" ”

He sneered: "Yes, Nan Yinglin is still alive, are you disappointed?" ”

She heard Nan Jingpei mention the deeds of the Su family's army chasing the north and chasing the north, and she also knew that King Xin finally broke through and escaped with more than a dozen cavalry.

She originally thought that even if King Xin planned to make a comeback, he would have to work hard for more than ten years, or he would not survive the comeback at all, and he would be caught by the officers and soldiers of the local state capital.

But what she didn't expect was that Nan Yinglin would appear alone in the Great Qi Inner Palace and appear in her bedroom.

Shen Yun nodded genuinely: "Disappointment, but the emperor won't let me down for too long." ”

He sneered: "Who? Your Emperor? You trust him like that? ”

Shen Yunzhen also sneered: "I don't trust him, do I want to trust you?" ”

Nan Yinglin proudly put the blade of the sword on her neck: "At this time, you might as well trust me." ”

Thinking that he was threatening his life, she smiled heartily and pinched his cold blade with two fingers: "Do you think I will be afraid of death?" ”

"Of course I know that you are not afraid of death, and I also know that you are highly poisoned and will soon return to the West. I know that you don't know anything about what happened outside the palace, and you are waiting for your emperor to return with joy. He stepped on the edge of the bed, leaned down and asked her, "Am I right?" ”
