The bright moon hangs high on the branches, and the moonlight shines on this lonely palace road, white and flawless, inexplicably giving people a feeling of loneliness.

Unconsciously looking up at the bright moon in the night sky, Ling Xiyun's eyes faintly overflowed with a thoughtful streamer.

It was the first time she felt the cruelty of the palace struggle so closely, and the feeling was as if she had put her whole body in the abyss, and the tense and oppressive atmosphere was completely breathless. Looking back now, I still have palpitations, and my neck is cold.

Here, human life is the least valuable thing! Just like Fang Cai, in order to prevent Qi Lian Xue'er and her group from escaping, those courtiers who usually exalt loyalty and morality did not care about her life or death, and finally took off the mask of hypocrisy, revealing their original vicious and ugly faces!

In their eyes, her life is not worth mentioning, even if she is the daughter of the prime minister, even if she is the seventh princess! But as long as they are asked to choose between human life and utilitarianism, they will not hesitate to choose the latter.

It doesn't matter if she's dead, just throw all the blame on the Assassins and give her a reputation for serving her country, and the matter will be over!

The human heart is so cold, and the human nature is so ugly. This is the Royal Palace, the most desirable and yet the most gloomy place!

If it weren't for Narong Jingxuan controlling the overall situation and trying to prevent dissent and let Qi Lian Xue'er and her group go, I am afraid that she would be in a different place by now.

I unconsciously remembered a sentence he said to himself before-

"Because this king will not hurt you, this king is the only person you can trust!"

Gurgle.

The heartbeat can't help but skip a beat!

But she quickly regained her composure, and turned her head to look at the splendid palace behind her. At such a distance, I couldn't see the situation in the main hall, and I couldn't hear the exclamations of the palace maids, and there was incomparable silence in my ears.

The moonlight shines on the golden eaves, and it is even more majestic when viewed from a distance.

The palace has never been a place of peace!

And tonight's assassination is by no means an emergency, it can cause the two palaces to burst into flames in a short period of time, and it must have been deliberate for a long time. When the assassination is carried out, people are caught off guard, and when they retreat, they are decisive and swift, and their actions are orderly and well-planned.

The other party's goal is to assassinate the emperor, but he has no intention of breaking the cauldron, obviously leaving a way back!

And this assassination seems to be just an ordinary assassination, and when you think about it deeply, you will feel that things are not as simple as you imagined.

Since Qi Lian Xue'er came to the Western Regions, the person she has had the most contact with is the Seventh Prince, Narong Jingxuan. And she suddenly became the mastermind who wanted to assassinate the emperor, don't even think about it, once such a thing happens, it must be the Seventh Prince who will be heavily responsible, and maybe it will be said that she is forming a party for personal gain and taking the opportunity to rebel!

He was not present when the assassin carried out the assassination, and it was his princess who was taken hostage after the assassination failed, and it was he who let the assassin go, and all the fingers were pointed at him! There are all kinds of signs that if this game is lost, it is undoubtedly to pull Narong Jingxuan into the water!

And her capture was definitely not an accident! I'm afraid she's been targeted early!

In the dark, Ling Xiyun felt that there was an invisible big hand controlling all this in the dark, arranging a huge chess game, intricate and foggy, carefully arranged step by step, and she seemed to be in it, and she couldn't easily escape!

A gust of cold wind struck, Ling Xiyun couldn't help but shiver with a chill down her spine, and raised her hand to rub her arm.

At this moment, an exclamation suddenly sounded in my ears.

"Miss!"

Ling Xiyun raised her eyes and saw Zhi'er running all the way to the front, asking her with a crying voice on her face full of horror, "Miss, are you okay?" Fang Caizhi'er was about to die of fright when he saw you being kidnapped by assassins outside the palace! ”

Seeing her worried and frightened look, Ling Xiyun hurriedly explained with a smile, "I'm fine, don't you see I'm fine!" ”

"But, but Miss, you have a lot of blood on your neck......" Seeing the wound on Ling Xiyun's neck, Zhi'er couldn't hold back for a while, and tears instantly burst out of her eyes, and they kept flowing.

"Huh?! It's a little thing, it's just a little bit of skin, it's really fine! Seeing that she suddenly started crying, Ling Xiyun immediately stepped forward to hold her face, wiped her tears and smiled, "I didn't cry, why are you crying!" ”

"It's Zhi'er who can't protect Miss Hao if it's useless, Zhi'er is really uncomfortable! Just now outside the hall, Zhi'er almost thought that Miss was going to be gone, thank God, Miss, you're okay! Whining...... It's useless! ”

Seeing that the more she cried, the more fierce she became, Ling Xiyun couldn't cry or laugh for a while, but her heart was warm.

"Okay, okay, don't cry! Don't worry, I'm fine, Miss Ben's life is big, how can she die so easily! Saying that, Ling Xiyun pretended to be fierce and said, "Don't cry, it's ugly!" I'll ignore you if you cry again! ”

"Yes...... Miss! When she woke up and woke up her nose, Zhi'er hurriedly stopped crying and laughed, and wiped the tears off her face.

Finally seeing that she didn't cry, Ling Xiyun breathed a sigh of relief, reached out and pinched her cheek, and then as if she thought of something, she frowned and asked with some concern.

"Zhi'er, are my mother and father okay?"

"Miss, rest assured, the lord and the lady have been moved to a safe place, very safe!"

Hearing this, Ling Xiyun's hanging heart finally let go, "That's good!" ”

It's just that she just breathed a sigh of relief, but when she saw Zhi'er lowering her eyes and looking like she wanted to speak, she couldn't help but ask softly.

"What's wrong? Anything else? ”

"No ......"

Zhi'er hurriedly shook her head, but seeing that Ling Xiyun's gaze still fell on her, she finally told the truth.

"Miss...... Fang Caizhi'er heard many ministers in the Ling Chen Palace criticizing the Seventh Prince to the emperor, and they were still chewing the root of your tongue there, saying that you were a red face and caused the Seventh Prince to let go of the assassin without permission! That is so ugly to hear, the old man is not light, even Zhi'er can't wait to pull out the tongue of that group of people! Wrinkling her little face, Zhi'er was so angry that she stomped her feet.

Ling Xiyun's expression froze when she heard this.

Really!

She knew it wasn't that simple!

Now that the handle of the Seven Kings is in hand, the princelings will definitely take the opportunity to fan the flames and pull the Seven Kings into the water as much as possible! Just as she had hoped, the Assassins had achieved their purpose!

Seeing Ling Xiyun contemplating her eyebrows and thinking deeply without saying a word, Zhi'er was even more worried, "Miss, what do you say we should do when we go back?" The emperor was already furious when he heard their words, and he definitely wouldn't give the young lady a good face! ”

"I can't control the mouth on them. But don't worry, I have my own solution! ”

Seeing that her young lady was so confident, Zhi'er was no longer overly worried.

Just as he was talking, he saw another person walking quickly in this direction, he was dressed in an aqua blue robe, and Ling Xiyun recognized him at a glance as Narong Yeyu.

Looking at the person in front of her, Ling Xiyun smiled and sniffed.

"Ye Yu, why are you here?"

Seeing that she was safe and sound, Narong Ye Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but there was still a strong worry in his eyes, "Naturally, I am concerned about the safety of my sister-in-law, and when I heard that my sister-in-law was just held hostage by assassins, Ye Yu was also shocked!" Sister-in-law, are you alright? ”

He had previously guarded the emperor in the main hall and knew nothing about things outside the palace. Afterwards, as soon as he heard that Ling Xiyun was being held hostage by assassins, he ran over almost without saying a word!

Ling Xiyun waved her hand nonchalantly, "I'm fine!" It's just that there is a little skin on the neck, don't worry! ”

But at this moment, my heart couldn't help but be dyed with a trace of warmth......

The night breeze blows, and it is as cool as water. But she wasn't cold at all, and her heart was warmer than ever at this moment!

That kind of warmth comes from the care of the people around her, and from the real feeling that someone cares about her!

When she came to this strange time and space, she only felt like a floating duckweed, ethereal and ethereal, as if she could leave at any moment!

But now, it's different!

Some people will care about her, some people will care about her life and death, and some people will care about whether she is happy or not. She can see herself in the eyes of others, she can feel her feet, as if they are really stepping on this land!

Looking at the two people in front of her, Ling Xiyun suddenly had a joyful smile on her face, her eyes were filled with hazy moisture, and her heart was very warm.

Thank you for giving me a sense of belonging!

It makes me feel like I'm not alone anymore!

It makes me feel like I really exist in this strange world! Not because of this body, but because of her person, she Ling Xiyun!
