Chapter 176: Palace Change

The moonlight in the sky is like a flower, sprinkled to the earth, everyone is in their sleep to accept the baptism of the sun and the moon, all say that this ancient landscape is the most nourishing, Le Zhengyu at the moment in his own hands, sighing in his heart.

Look at Lord Cao, who has been claiming to accompany the princess next to him, has already fallen asleep at his feet, and the corners of his mouth are almost saliva flowing down, The mountain wind in the night is fierce, blowing the trees in the forest rustling, and even Qiong Ying in the cave is almost poured into the cuffs by the wind blowing in the cave, and the whole sleeve is full of wind.

The emperor was lying down on the straw mat that Qiong Ying had set up, and Fang Cai's movements made him almost want to die, and the bleeding wound on his body was only healed, and it was torn apart by Qiong Ying's shaking.

At this time, Qiong Ying sat beside the emperor with a guilty face, chewing the hemostatic medicine she had just smeared near the entrance of the cave and chewing it in her mouth, the liquid flowing down her muddy chin, and the emperor's eyes flashed a trace of helplessness.

"Alright, sir, I'll give you the medicine."

Qiong Ying helped the emperor on the ground up, due to the serious injury, half of the emperor's body had to face Qiong Ying's legs, and finally simply pressed on her, spreading the wound on her back, and a long cut by a knife was exposed to the air, and blood was still oozing outward.

The wound was already a little purple, obviously starting to infect, Qiong Ying hurriedly applied the herbs carefully on the wound, and then carefully bandaged the wound with herbs, who made them both embarrassed, from head to toe almost no place was clean.

"Come, be careful, slowly lie on your side, the wound is already infected, don't press it again." Qiong Ying slowly helped the emperor's body to lie down, and then looked at the emperor with her big watery eyes, and saw that the emperor's heart was furious.

"Why are you looking at me like this? What's on my face? Emperor Jimo said with a slightly embarrassed expression.

At this time, it was dark outside, only the night wind was blowing quietly, and the cave became warmer, all of which were a pile of firewood shining on the two of them, and their lying and sitting figures were cast on the stone wall in the cave, showing two huge shadows, as if they were snuggling up to each other, and there was a bit of warm warmth in such a cold night.

Usually I don't feel anything, and I get along with the identity of a master and a maid, Qiong Ying is a master with a little nervous jumping, and she is not afraid of heaven and earth, as if the Su Chenli Sect in the world can't restrain her soul that yearns for freedom at all, not to mention that there is Ah Yong by her side, and the two get along very harmoniously.

But now, when the two of them arrived here after escaping death, it was really unnatural for a lonely man and a widow to be in the same room at such a quiet moment, and there seemed to be a trace of indescribable affection in the air.

Qiong Ying's cheeks were slightly flushed, and she didn't know if it was caused by the atmosphere at this time, or if the warm fire was gradually burning a little hotter, and she felt warm.

Emperor Jimo's eyes looked fixedly at Qiong Ying, who was looking at him, and when he saw that she didn't speak, he didn't say anything again, knowing that Qiong Ying suddenly turned around, reached out and picked up the picks on the side, and began to tease the sleek stones back and forth in the fire.

"Xiaoyingzi, why are you burning a few stones in the fire? But hungry? ”

Jimo Emperor is the king of a country, as soon as the words came out, he heard Qiong Ying's belly sound, and the sound of cooing made Qiong Ying twist her body unconsciously, that is, Emperor Mo just wanted to retract the second half of the sentence, and he could be calm and comfortable in the face of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military affairs, and now he made such an embarrassing mistake in the face of this little woman.

Qiong Ying didn't care, anyway, for her in the past, when she followed Le Zhengyu out on a mission, she was also surviving in the wilderness, and there were not a few hungry stomachs, Qiong Ying didn't have the sensitive nerves of the emperor, she was picking up the stone while explaining the problem to the emperor, but she directly ignored the second half of the emperor's sentence.

"Because the temperature of the burned stones like this can at least keep us warm all night, so that when the fire burns out in the middle of the night, we will not be frozen."

The emperor said to himself, "I didn't expect you to know this. ”

Emperor Jimo was speaking out in emotion, he didn't think that Qiong Ying would answer, he didn't think that Qiong Ying said happily after listening to his words: "Yes! This is all taught to me by others. ”

The two of them were speechless, and the emperor unconsciously fell asleep and fell into a deep dream, Qiong Ying, who was originally guarding the emperor's side and watching the fire, was even more sleepy in the middle of the night, holding a warm almost hot stone in her arms, and also fell into a deep sleep on the straw mat that had been erected.

In Tongguan Town, this is destined to be a sleepless night, Le Zhengyu decisively rejected Cao Zheng's kindness in the fifth time Cao Zheng personally came to invite, but in fact, Cao Zheng was really sleepy, plus he dealt with some old cases last night, and he had very little time to rest.

Cao Zheng watched Le Zhengyu sometimes sit in the main hall to enjoy flowers and tea, sometimes stand up and walk back and forth in the hall, using the moonlight to move his muscles and bones, how leisurely and comfortable the princess is; On the contrary, as the owner of Dali Temple, he is now sleepy and yawning, but because of the presence of the princess, he has to cheer up and wait respectfully.

Le Zhengyu inadvertently turned around and saw Cao Zheng pouting his head on the side and sighing, Le Zhengyu said in a relaxed and natural tone: "Lord Cao, go and rest!" There is no need to accompany this princess here. ”

How dare Cao Zheng escape halfway, not to mention that after the prince came back, if he knew that he had done such a thing, would he come to Dali Temple in person to break his legs, and he would have to do his duty as a subordinate to his colleagues in the officialdom.

After all, in Lord Cao's mind, although he was sleepy, there was still a scene where Zhou Min, the waiter of the Criminal Department, teased him on the second day, thinking of this, Cao Zheng waved his hand again and again, drank a bowl of herbal tea, and showed a slightly bitter smile to Le Zhengyu.

"The princess is a precious body, let's go to the back to rest first! How could Cao put down such a big case and go to sleep with peace of mind, this is a betrayal of the prince's trust in Cao, and Cao can still endure it. ”

"The prince really didn't see the wrong person, Lord Cao is really the parent official of the people of Tongguan Town, and he has worked hard."

After a few polite words from you to me, Le Zhengyu stopped talking to Cao Zheng, she paced out of the main hall, looking at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, thinking about that person in her heart.

In the distant capital, the prince and Mu Qing took advantage of the night to touch the direction of the palace, the night is the best cover, no matter what you are doing, as long as you are wearing a dark night clothes, you can hide your whereabouts in the dark night.

The palace has already been keyed, the queen mother's funeral is coming to an end, the prince Lang obviously has no intention of returning to Beijing to mourn, but the prince's style of action is becoming more and more biased, but over the years, due to the proper concealment in secret, he has cultivated a group of his own henchmen in the court.

When the court can compete with the prince, I am afraid that except for the emperor is the prince, and now the emperor still does not know where to go, that is, the court and Tongguan Town are evenly matched, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty do not dare to defect easily, so they can only wait and see what happens.

The two extremely fast figures shuttled in the dark night, and they entered the palace very easily, and now the palace is full of the prince's people guarding, that is, Mo Yu took Mu Qing to the queen's eternal life hall.

Passing by a deep palace gate, the palace gate that was supposed to be a deep lock was hidden at the moment, that is, when Mo Yu flashed over, a touch of surprise flashed in his heart, and then he made a gesture to Mu Qing, Mu Qing received the master's signal, and also flashed to the other side.

Just when they realized that there was no abnormality and wanted to walk out, the lights suddenly brightened in front of them, and the two of them couldn't adapt for a while.

Gradually, seeing the situation ahead, a neat group of royal guards lined up, surrounded the two, looked up into the air, and the deep palace walls were full of archers pulling bows and stringing them, waiting for the battle.

The torches shine so brightly in the palace, there are thousands of people, and one person walks out after the rows of troops, and it is the current prince, Ji Mo Lang, behind Ji Mo Lang, there are also several ministers who have been working against Ji Mo in the past, and Ji Mo found that several of them are still important ministers that he usually relies on.

There are also a few officials who have never met before, it seems that they should be the newly appointed officials of Dali Temple mentioned in the letter, but this is not important, the most obscure and the most eye-catching person is the man who wears a cloak and a cloak and can't see his face clearly.

At this moment, there was such a big battle, but it failed to wake up the rest of the palace, that is, Mo Yan knew that it seemed that the palace was still in the hands of the prince.

This is the first time that the two people left by the royal family to the end have a head-to-head confrontation, and it can be regarded as a complete tear of the face to meet each other, the prince's face is no longer as light as before, I think it is born from the heart, I am afraid that the prince does not want to hide it at all at this moment, and the wolf ambition of seeking power and usurping the throne is known to passers-by.

"Who was I? Isn't this the famous prince of our Jimo Dynasty? Haha....." The prince's voice was full of disdain and arrogance.

Since Jimo was discovered, he also looked like an old god, with a very gorgeous bearing, the moonlight seemed to shine on him alone, and there was a faint mockery on his handsome face.

"Isn't this our prince of Jimo? His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, what does this mean? Knowing that this king is back in Beijing today, there is no need to put up such a big battle to welcome this king? It's so gracious. ”

Listening to Jimo's words, the prince laughed louder and more unscrupulously as if he had heard something funny, he looked at the surrounding ministers, and then at the surrounding guards, laughing almost forward and backward.

"Haha... Hahaha.... Listen to what the prince is saying? The prince said that all of you are here to welcome him into Beijing, don't you say? Are you here to welcome the prince back to Beijing? What about you? Isn't it? And you, you, you.... Are you here to welcome the prince back to Beijing? ”

The crown prince stretched out his hand and pointed at several ministers, and several ministers shook their heads one after another, and while laughing at the prince who they could only look up to, the guards who were pointed at also shook their heads.

Looking at the prince's smug and distorted expression, almost crazy, Ji Mo's good-looking brows couldn't help frowning slightly, and a natural and luxurious temperament flowed faintly in the moonlight, like the warmest light among the mountain springs, and like the most precious jade.
