The cold moonlight seemed to carry some kind of unclear depth, and it was so arrogant that it hung on the branches, quietly watching the earth of the world, including new life and fighting.

When the blood was splashed, the emperor signaled to Ah Yong, who looked back at the field, and finally turned back, jumped forward, and disappeared in a few breaths.

The man in black who was fighting obviously noticed that someone was running away, and a small group of people spontaneously chased after him, and the others were inseparable from Qiong Ying and the emperor in the same place, although there was a poison attack at the beginning, but there was no panic, obviously a well-trained killer.

Outnumbered things happen from time to time, but Qiong Ying and the emperor who were on the scene were able to retain their combat effectiveness in the crowd tactics for such a long time, which was enough for these black-clothed people to be impatient.

"Brothers, go together, whether you live or die, you must kill these two." A dull voice came from the depths of the woods, and the last group of about dozens of people swarmed up, slashing at Qiong Ying and the emperor.

At this moment, Qiong Ying and the emperor were back to back, Yan Ran looked like they were gathering to resist the enemy, and the emperor observed the approaching killers around him, and said in a low voice that only the two of them could hear: "Xiao Yingzi, there are too many people, and if we continue like this, we will definitely be buried here, we will break through in one fell swoop, through this forest, a few miles to the north is a mountain cliff, and then we will meet on the edge of the mountain cliff." ”

Qiong Ying nodded almost invisibly, and said to the emperor: "Master, I will sprinkle the medicinal powder in a while to confuse the line of sight, I will cover in the back, you can find the breakthrough, and you can get out." ”

Discuss the strategy of retreating from the enemy, this is indeed the best strategy at the moment, and the two of them silently counted in their hearts 'one, two... The three of them rushed towards the southeast together, and at the same time a handful of powder was sprinkled, mixed with countless gravel-like things, and smashed into the face, which made people very annoyed.

Qiong Ying never knew that the emperor's martial arts were so strong, for so many days they had been walking together, the emperor had not shown that he knew kung fu's every move, and now it seems that the emperor's martial arts are much higher than Qiong Ying.

However, Qiong Ying didn't have time to think about this now, just watched the emperor break out, some people chased down the woods, and the rest of the people were still biting her, and the offensive was getting more and more fierce, and she must be killed on the spot.

Qiong Ying was not flustered, looking at the emperor's back gradually moving away, her heart was sad, her strength to resist for half a day was about to be exhausted, and what she was confident to sprinkle out was not some poisonous powder, but a handful of loess that she took the opportunity to grab on the ground during the fight.

Qiong Ying thought in her heart, she was probably going to explain here, the emperor was the emperor after all, if the emperor was killed, the world would inevitably be turned upside down, and the people would be in trouble.

She never wants to repeat the scene more than ten years ago, because of the disaster, her family has no way to live, she once talked to the emperor about her family's case, hoping to exchange her life for the grievances of the clansmen!

Although she is not a chaste martyr, but as a courtier of the people, she knows that she cannot run away at such a critical moment, she must do so, and she thinks that God has played a big joke on her, and she has no rules, and now she has to sacrifice her life for the country.

Compared with Qiong Ying's situation, the current emperor's situation is not much better, running in the direction of the woods, Fang Cai's horse is guarding the woods, and behind him are the pursuers.

Naturally, two feet were no faster than four, and at last the pursuer suddenly stopped, and a man shot a feathered arrow with sparks at the trunk of the tree behind the emperor, and in the direction of the wind, the fire spread in less than a few moments.

The black-clothed man in the woods with faint firelight ran towards the surrounding clearing, and Qiong Ying's heart sank, and she actually puffed up her breath and killed the three black-clothed men in front of her on the spot with a knife.

At this moment, Qiong Ying doesn't know whether to be happy or disappointed, these people in black are really cute, such a big fire is bound to cause the entire forest to burn out, and the fire is not only burning the emperor who is running forward, who can guarantee that it will not burn down the trees to their feet!

Taking advantage of the fact that none of the other killers who were in chaos were paying attention, Qiong Ying looked up at the gradually darkening sky, and rolled towards the surrounding woods without thinking. The afterlife or something will be left to heaven.

The man in black looked at the direction of Qiong Ying's absconding with a foolish attitude, it was a suicide! The fire soon burned in the woods that Qiong Ying had just submerged.

Just when Qiong Ying felt that her whole body was about to be scorched, God poured down a scoop of rain silently, felt the wetness of the raindrops dripping on her body, and Qiong Yingshun, who was lying on the top of a plane tree and was about to be roasted, smiled weakly at the sky, and fell down the pole.

When Ying Yang got Le Zhengyu's order to bring people over, he braved the rain to advance, and finally saw a corpse washed clean by the rain, as well as the watered woods, the dark and bare woods revealed a burning smell, and there was a faint smoke coming out, which showed the fierceness of the fire at that time.

At this time, Qiong Ying had already left the woods, dragging her tired body towards the cliff that the emperor had just agreed, it was obviously difficult to identify the direction in such a rainy night, she walked alone in the dark night, the original bright moon had long been hidden in the clouds.

"This emperor too, why is he so familiar with this place, wouldn't he know that my little follower would definitely die, and temporarily comfort me with lies, right?"

Qiong Ying's self-talk can now only be heard by the sky above her head and the ground under her feet, she continued to walk forward in one direction for more than ten meters, she was really tired, hungry and sleepy, and she accidentally rolled down a cliff under her feet.

Le Zhengyu waited for the news of Yingyang in Tongguan Town, and she didn't close her eyes almost all night, she came here to establish her own power with Qionghua Qiongying, they were more important to her than her family.

Now that Qiong Ying is missing, there is no news of the people who sent her, which makes Le Zhengyu deeply anxious.

But I can't help but be happy Zhengyu continued to ask about the whereabouts of Qiong Ying and the emperor, Dali Temple Shaoqing arrived at the Wangfu early in the morning, after a night of rain, let the morning as always be a little cold, calculate the season, autumn should come.

"Princess, Lord Cao of Dali Temple asks to see." Purple clothes are reporting outside.

Le Zhengyu walked into the flower hall with a tired face that he had not rested well, Cao Zhengzheng walked around anxiously, saw Le Zhengyu come in, and leaned over to salute: "The lower official has seen the princess, and he came to disturb the princess in the morning, it is really not the lower official." ”

Le Zhengyu looked at Lord Cao: "Lord Cao doesn't have to be polite, but what happened?" ”

"Princess, this matter is not big, but it is not small."

Looking at Cao Zheng's tangled face, Le Zhengyu glanced at the purple clothes next to him, and said, "My lord, come and listen, it must be a tricky matter. ”

Listening to Le Zhengyu's words, Cao Zheng's frowning brows stretched slightly, and then said: "Does the princess know that on the day when the prince and Feng Gongzi started a few days ago, the lower official went to the palace to talk about the loss of the profane pants?" ”

Hearing this, Ziyi's face was slightly red, and he looked at Le Zhengyu, but Le Zhengyu had an interesting look and nodded.

Then Cao Zheng continued: "That incident was originally thought to be a little strange, but at that time, because there were many things, I didn't care, and what I lost was not anything valuable, so I felt that filing a case was too trivial. ”

Le Zhengyu listened carefully to Cao Zheng's narration, and his heart flashed through countless incidents of perverted stealing underwear of the opposite sex in the movies he had watched, and he was slightly surprised, it turned out that this also existed in ancient times.

"But today, someone came to report the case, claiming that not only did he lose his underwear, but he also saw a man walking out of his house in the middle of the night; When the lower official was about to comfort the woman, another woman came to the door, and the situation was very similar, saying that she had seen a man come out of his house in his sleep, with his back bent. ”

After listening to Cao Zheng's words, Ziyi, who was standing on the side, not only became alert, but also began to look at Cao Zheng seriously.

"Does the informant recognize the man? Or do you not know whether it has a familiar impression? Le Zhengyu asked.

"No, it's this that makes the lower officials feel strange, in the middle of the night, sneaking into the women's room and stealing underwear, according to the woman who reported the case, she found someone close to her in the middle of the night in a daze, and that person didn't do anything, just stole clothes."

"That means they don't know if it's a dream or reality? Don't remember what the man looked like, or didn't dare to look at the man at all? Le Zhengyu asked again.

"Yes! This is also the first few bold women to talk about what happened, and the others are trembling with fright, and they are not willing to describe the scene at that time. ”

Lord Cao said with a headache, and then looked at Le Zhengyu, "However, princess, this incident made Xia Guan suddenly think of a case, a case that happened ten years ago, and it was also in a uproar at that time; But at that time, the Shaoqing of Dali Temple was now the squire of the Criminal Department, Lord Zhou, and the lower officials just listened to it, and the authority could not be investigated at will, but as far as the lower officials knew, the case was still a mystery. ”

Lord Cao told this story in a deep voice, as if the air was nervously condensed in place, Le Zhengyu motioned for him to tell him about the events of the year, after all, Le Zhengyu didn't know anything at that time, he was still a child.

"It is said that in a small county town at that time, when things were lost, most of them were women, and at that time they were not as enlightened as we are now, and their stomachs could not be filled in, so how could the government take care of those trivial matters, and they didn't take it seriously."

Le Zhengyu nodded in understanding, and Lord Cao continued: "But just five days after that incident, there was a disappearance case and a murder case, and at that time, I happened to meet the Chu State, and that small border county happened to be on the edge of the Chu State.

When the war came, the people were struggling to make a living, the displaced people fled, the imperial court conscripted troops to arrest the strong men, where could they take care of this matter, and then the war ended, and the informant had long since disappeared, and it was gone. ”
