Chapter 17: King Rui is assassinated
Ye Lan'er herself belongs to the great calamity and is immortal, reincarnated. When I came to this era, I felt fortunate in misfortune, so I regretted my life even more.
And Murong Ke's battle to defend the West Wind City back then was also a life that escaped death and picked up, so it stands to reason that he should be as afraid of death as himself.
But the way he looks now, life and death are simply out of the equation.
Could it be that he saw that Yu Feikite was just a weak woman, and he expected that she would not be able to kill her?
If you don't accept softness, don't explain, and speak arrogantly, even if Jade Feikite is weak, it will be aroused.
What's more, she still seems to be a master.
Ye Lan'er frequently glanced at Su Yu, hoping that he would stop him.
But Su Yu's guy had tears in his eyes at the moment, gritting his teeth and keeping silent.
Su Yu was not worried about Murong Ke's safety, but he knew that Gu Qingchen had a status in Murong Ke's mind, and he also knew that Gu Qingchen's affairs had always been a knot in Murong Ke's heart.
In the past five years, King Rui has never had a moment of real happiness, even if there is a situation of persecution, conspiracy and treachery, but those menacing guns and arrows are not to worry, only Gu Qingchen, and the three thousand soldiers who buried their loyal bones under the West Wind City, are the haze that always lingers in his heart.
If Murong Ke hadn't had any illusions about Emperor Xia Xian back then, those people would not have died at all.
At this time, Murong Ke really wanted to atone for the three thousand souls and his best friend whose life and death were uncertain.
Of course, Ye Lan'er couldn't know what Murong Ke was thinking in his heart.
But she felt Jade Kite's arm tremble a little, and she didn't know if it was because of the sadness in her heart or because of the excitement of having the opportunity to slash the enemy.
Ye Lan'er pulled her, hesitated for a moment and then said, "Flying kite girl, King Rui refuses to say, there may be something wrong." You see......"
"Shut up!"
Yu Feikite shook off Ye Lan'er and pointed his sword at Murong Ke's chest.
"You want to exonerate your man? But I don't want to hear it! Murong Ke, don't think that I'm a woman, so I don't dare to start, you should regret today's decision! ”
Ye Lan'er fell to the ground again, and her eyes were full of stars, only to hear Murong Ke's voice faintly: "Come on, I don't regret it." ”
Jade Feiyu's right hand holding the sword trembled slightly, and his breathing became rapid.
And then.
The sound of a sharp weapon entering flesh.
Su Yu's sword that fell out and could be broken pierced straight into Murong Ke's chest!
After a moment's pause, Jade Flying Kite withdrew her elbow, pulled out the piercing sword, and threw it on the grass.
She trembled all over, was experiencing unbearable pain, and called out in a low voice: "Cousin, I'm sorry for you!" Suddenly, he slammed into the strange rock beside him.
This mutation occurred between lightning and fire, and Ye Lan'er and Su Yu didn't expect it at all, and they didn't have time to react.
But Murong Ke expected it.
The sword that Jade Fei Kite had just made was forced to deviate from his heart by an inch when it came into contact with him.
She didn't go down to the killer.
So she couldn't get past her own level, and she was willing to die.
Murong Ke rose into the air with the figure of the Jade Flying Kite, and reached out to grab the Jade Flying Kite's arm, but the Jade Flying Kite had miraculous skills and deep internal strength, and Murong Ke was born with the sword just now, and it was already the end of the strong crossbow.
The jade flying kite still hit the rock, but fortunately it didn't burst, but fainted.
Murong Ke covered his chest and fell beside her.
Su Yu reacted and hurriedly went to help: "Lord Wang! How are you! I'm going to find Mr. Mu! ”
Murong Ke stood up half-leaning on his body, waved his hand to signal Su Yu not to panic, and ordered: "Take the Jade Flying Kite down and take good care of her, and send her back to Jiangnan Yu's house after she is injured." ”
Su Yu nodded: "Lord Wang, this is all easy to say, I'll take you to the study first!" ”
"Tell the dark three to clean up the aftermath. What happened just now must not be leaked out. Tonight's banquet will be held as usual. ”
Su Yu was a little embarrassed.
Although the Jade Flying Kite did not kill with a single sword, Murong Ke's sword wound was only an inch away from the heart vein, penetrating through the chest, this extremely serious injury, if it could not be treated properly, I am afraid that his life would not be saved.
At the banquet in the evening, all the gods gathered, I don't know how much energy it takes, how can the prince's body be like this?
"Lord Wang! You ......"
"Su Yu, you don't have to say more. In the past five years, we have exhausted all kinds of methods and means, and worked hard to finally dig out Hu Zhenshan. If this line is broken, no one will give us another five years.
Don't worry, my body knows by itself that I can't die. Besides, we don't have ...... She? ”
Murong Ke raised his eyes and looked at Ye Lan'er, who was still kneeling on the ground with a confused expression.
Like a child who was distracted in class and was named by the teacher to answer a question, Ye Lan'er opened her mouth wide: "Huh? ”
"You, come here." Murong Ke hooked his index finger.
Ye Lan'er used to be a thief, yes, but it was by no means an underworld.
She had a proper job as a tabloid reporter as a cover, and the theft was partly motivated by greed for money, and partly to practice the skills she had learned from her adoptive father.
So she has very little contact with bloody violence.
And as a thief with high professionalism, her first choice is property, and if she can avoid fighting with others, she will try to avoid it.
The sword light and blood shadow just now really flashed her eyes, and at the same time strongly impacted her three views.
Hearing the call, he quickly got up from the ground and walked quickly to Murong Ke's side.
I saw that his face was pale, his front placket was soaked with blood, and the part where his right hand covered his chest was still gushing blood.
I don't know why it hurts in my heart.
This Murong Ke, after all, has a face like Ye Feng, and Ye Lan'er can't get rid of his special feelings.
……
The three of them quickly moved to the study, and Murong Ke was lying flat on the bed, weak.
Mr. Wood is a strange man, who happened to travel to the area during the Battle of Zephyr and volunteered to join the camp of the defenders to treat the wounded.
He witnessed Murong Ke's courage and wisdom, and admired this resolute and unyielding young man who cherished the world very much.
So later, when a group of more than a dozen people escaped from the northwest, he did not choose to leave, but stayed in the Rui Wangfu to help Murong Ke make suggestions.
His medical master inherited the divine doctor Zhong Yuanshan, and he was one of the best in the entire Great Xia Kingdom, and Emperor Xia Xian occasionally had a headache and brain fever, and he would respectfully send someone to invite him.
Therefore, Mr. Mu is a pivotal figure in the entire Ruiwang Mansion.
He was skillful in his movements, and his techniques were skillful in cleaning and bandaging Murong Ke's wounds.
The wound of the sword was coated with a thick layer of secret gold sore medicine and wrapped in thick gauze.
"Mr. Mu, is he okay?" Su Yu personally brought the copper basin for Mr. Mu to clean his hands, and asked anxiously.
Mr. Mu sighed: "The bleeding has stopped. Fortunately, I didn't hurt my internal organs, it's really God's mercy!
However, this kind of penetrating injury is extremely difficult to recover, and nine times out of ten it will suppurate and accumulate fluid. Once the flesh has suppurated, the wound must be dissected again and drained. When the time comes, not only will you have to suffer from the flesh and skin, but you will not be able to save your life. ”
Su Yu's baby face was full of sadness: "The prince still has to attend tonight's banquet......"
"Nonsense!" After Su Yu finished speaking, Mr. Mu shouted angrily: "This is simply asking for his own death!" Rui Wang is like this, how can he do other things!
Su Yu, you don't know the knot in the prince's heart, how can you let him do such a stupid thing! In the darkness of freedom and providence, Gu Qingchen's matter was something that no one expected, so why bother to put all the responsibility on himself......
The more Mr. Mu spoke, the more powerless he became, he used this truth to explain Murong Ke many times, but it was never useful.
Su Yu was a little embarrassed: "The prince said that when the time comes, let Ye Lan'er serve him closely, so that his physical condition will not be easily noticed." The prince also said that I am afraid that there will be no more opportunities like tonight. ”
Mr. Mu glanced at Ye Lan'er, who was drinking tea alone in the Taishi's chair, and asked suspiciously, "Is that the one that the prince forced in?" ”
Su Yu nodded.
Mr. Mu shook his hands behind his back: "Isn't this nonsense!" ”
"Mr. Mu, listen to me."
Murong Ke didn't know when he had already gotten off the bed and slowly moved behind Mr. Mu.
Su Yu hurriedly went to help, and Murong Ke waved his hand, motioning for him to take Ye Lan'er out first.
"Mr. Mu, tonight, I have to go. You know all the plans before, and I don't need to say much about the importance of tonight. ”
"You're going to take your life like this!"
Murong Ke smiled slightly: "If the ending is destined to be tragic, wouldn't it be a relief to take an earlier step." What's more, I'm not necessarily going to be fine, I've always had a good body, you know. ”
"Even so, that woman just now, I heard that she was still a dumb person, how can she be trusted?"
Murong Ke shook his head: "Ye Lan'er's matter, I didn't have time to tell you in detail. It is true that she is a pawn arranged by Murong Yan, but she is not voluntary. She's not mute either, that's what she told me personally. ”
"Oh? Is there such a thing? ”
"This is a secret that even Murong Ke doesn't know. So things get a little weird. According to Murong Yan's cognition, this Ye Lan'er can neither speak nor write, and sending her to my mansion will not be able to deliver any news at all. So, what is the use of this chess piece? Is it really just to warm my bed? ”
Mr. Mu habitually touched the long beard on his chin and nodded in agreement with the suspicion just now.
Murong Ke continued: "I asked Ye Lan'er about the purpose of her visit to the Rui Palace. She bluntly said that she was sent by the prince and his wife to frame me, but she refused to say how she harmed me. When I asked again, she would fool me with whatever she said. ”
"Why is that?"
Murong Ke shook his head: "It's hard for me to get the reason. So at today's banquet, I brought her to attend another purpose, which was to see how she passed on the news to Murong Yan. Murong Yan did a lot of tricks to send this woman to me, and things will definitely not be simple. ”
"But ......"
"Mr. Mu, you don't need to say more, five years, I've waited long enough......"
……
Outside the door, Ye Lan'er was asking Su Yu about Murong Ke's injury.
Su Yu didn't bother to talk to her: "Didn't you see it all, and asked me what to do?" ”
"No, you said that he was poked in the heart, and he had to go to the banquet at night, is it really okay to die like this?"
Su Yu glared at Ye Lan'er viciously, and Ye Lan'er made a movement to zip her mouth and kept silent.
She secretly sighed that Su Yu, a loyal guy, might kill his family's prince.
Because if he had been by Murong Ke's side like he was now, he would have no chance to save him at all.
Hey, it's hard to be a good person.
