"Hold on!" The man said in a deep voice, raised the reins of his horse, and galloped away!
Countless horses' hooves pursued behind them. [No pop-ups. Chu Qiao was tightly held in the man's arms, and the cold wind blew from both sides, flying wildly all over the sky, but it didn't hit her much. She looked back from his shoulder, only to see that the sky was shrouded in dark clouds, like night, and the horses' hooves were lined with horses on the slopes of the dense forest, and she didn't know how many enemies were surrounding her, and she couldn't tell which were the imperial army and which were the black-clad assassins. And in the direction from which she had just escaped, the birds were circling, the swords were clanging, and the trees were shaking violently, as if they were about to be uprooted.
"It's the young master!"
A short voice suddenly sounded in front of them, and the black-clothed and masked men passed by them, their eyes intertwined, and they nodded respectfully, and then drew their weapons, daggers were cold, and their long swords were like rainbows, and they stabbed at the bloodthirsty jackals that followed closely behind them without hesitation.
"Young master, right ahead!"
"Young master, there is an enemy in the west eighty steps!"
"Young master, there is someone in the south wing to answer!"
"Young master, someone in the northwest answers!"
"Young master, there is someone in the east to answer!"
rushed all the way to kill, and wave after wave of covering personnel rushed to the scene. The man's face did not change, he rode his horse with one hand, hugged the girl in his arms with the other, and gradually threw the noisy sound behind him.
The dense forest suddenly disappeared, and the grassland swayed like waves appeared in front of me. Chu Qiao's palms were dripping with blood, and he raised his head and asked nervously, "Are you injured?" ”
Yan Xun was still masked, dressed in a black suit, riding an ink-colored divine horse, lowered his head, his eyes slowly narrowed into a line, and said, "Where is Li Ce?" ”
Chu Qiao replied honestly: "Escaped." ”
In the dark, Yan Xun's eyebrows raised violently. He glanced gloomily at the fire-lit dense forest, finally turned around, waved his wrist, and said coldly: "Go back to the city." ”
"Wait!" Chu Qiao hurriedly said, "Zhuge Yue is here, and he is still inside." ”
Yan Xun raised his eyebrows lightly and said, "Do you want me to go back and take the opportunity to take his life?" ”
Chu Qiao was stunned for a moment, and the original thought was suddenly completely crushed by this sentence, so he heard Yan Xun continue: "We can't reveal our identities, it's too late, spare him this time." ”
The horse's hooves were flying, and Chu Qiao lay in Yan Xun's arms, looking over his broad shoulders at the swaying pine waves. I felt that the sky was gloomy, and it seemed to be so thick that it could drip ink. The spring of the Hongchuan Plateau always comes very late, at this time Bian Tang and Huai Song have long been the fragrance of birds and flowers, but the land of Daxia is still cold in spring, and occasionally there will be a trace of cold wind blowing from the northwest, with a pungent fragrance. Yan Xun said that it was the smell of Huoyun flowers.
It seems that as long as everything is related to Prince Bian Tang, it will become intricate and extremely weird. Whether it was beaten by Chu Qiao or assassinated, such a major event was quietly suppressed by someone under the deliberate concealment of the official, if it weren't for the excessive injury that made Chu Qiao lie in bed for half a month, she would even think that everything before was just a nightmare.
Despite Chu Qiao, the first eyewitness, the entire assassination incident is still confusing. After thinking about it for a few days, Yan Xun had to mobilize all the intelligence forces of the big colleagues in Beijing, and after ten days, he got a plausible answer. However, looking at this answer, Chu Qiao felt creepy, whether intellectually or emotionally, he didn't want to believe that it was true.
"Since we can't find the cause, we can only look at the results. As a result, even though the Xiao Cavalry Battalion and the Green Battalion Army dispatched together to wipe out the more than 3,000 thieves who had followed Li Ce all the way to the west and repeatedly tried to assassinate them, Great Xia still fell behind because of poor protection, and had to give Bian Tang a little sweetness on the Tanghuguan tariff proposal. In the Bian Tang Dynasty, a series of investigations were also launched because of the assassination of the crown prince, and more than a dozen princes with foreign surnames who commanded the army were involved, and there were three southwestern feudal kings who were very likely to be cut off because of this incident. The strangest thing is that even though almost all of Li Ce's men were wounded, none of them died. This is incredible, being attacked and besieged by an enemy ten times his size, but he can have this record, if Prince Li is really lucky, I can only say that his luck is really good. This is the case with reasoning, when all the wrong answers have been eliminated, the last one that remains, no matter how improbable, is also the truth. ”
Yan Xun leaned on the cushion in the carriage, lay on his side, supported his forehead with his hand, and said with a faint smile: "Ah Chu, you are really fateful this time, if you really make a move on Li Ce, maybe you won't be here now." ”
Chu Qiao frowned, carefully recalling all the details of the day, but she still couldn't find even the slightest flaw. If it is really as Yan Xun said, all this was arranged by Li Ce, then this man is really terrible.
Yan Xun is not the only one who is interested in this matter. As soon as the imperial physician left, the palace issued an edict to summon Chu Qiao. Yan Xun sent her all the way to Changpingmen, and she couldn't go any further. Chu Qiao got out of the car, followed the palace people who came to guide the way, entered the front corridor, and turned all the way to the front hall.
Maybe it's still early, Shengjin Palace is quiet, there are white birds soaring in the sky, the sky is blue, the cool breeze blows on the clothes, and the big sleeves flutter like butterflies.
"Father-in-law Bai!" A little eunuch suddenly ran from the direction of the Xiangzhang Palace, and said breathlessly to the elderly father-in-law who was leading the way, "Father-in-law Bai, Qin Shuyi of the Shuyi Bureau is dead!" ”
"What?" Father-in-law Bai was stunned for a moment, and the dust in his hand suddenly fell to the ground, and he stammered, "What's the matter?" ”
"The people from the Shuyi Bureau said that they suddenly fell ill after eating the jujube paste cake in the western dining room, and now the people from the Internal Affairs Department have entered the palace."
"How so?" The husband's brows are furrowed.
He turned his head and was just about to speak, when Chu Qiao said, "Father-in-law has something to do, just go, I know the road to the front hall." ”
"Thank you very much." The husband saluted and said to the little eunuch, "Go quickly." ”
Chu Qiao has lived in the palace for many years, and he is very familiar with these mothers and fathers-in-law. To be precise, the emperor of Great Xia was not lustful, and the women in the palace had never been particularly favored or neglected. She vaguely remembered that Qin Shuyi of the Shuyi Bureau, whose name was Mingshan and did not show the dew, had always been the quietest and most peaceful person among the eighty singing and dancing Shuyi of the Shuyi Bureau, and often came to their Shangyi Fang to pick up books. I can't imagine that such a person who stays out of everything will not be able to escape the disaster of death.
She didn't think about it anymore, and passed through the camphor hall, which is the Baqu Ming Lake, the willows on both sides of the bank have been drawn, a crisp and green piece, the breeze is gentle, and the blue waves on the lake are rippling. Chu Qiao stood on the Baqu Covered Bridge, with his clothes in the wind, fluttering, and inevitably gave birth to a little bit of openness.
Walk quickly through the Ronghua Pavilion, and then go forward is the blessing gate of the front hall, she walks on the side road, relatively quiet, there have always been few pedestrians, walk in a row of vermilion lacquer and gold tiles under the corridor, the rockery and clear water in the distance, the willow trees and flowers, the woman's white shirt and black hair, it looks very elegant.
However, at this moment, a terrible scream suddenly came, which immediately disrupted the girl's progress.
Chu Qiao stopped, raised his head, and saw a snow-white eagle falling from the sky, falling to the ground with a bang, and his chest and abdomen were pierced by a sharp arrow, and he was dripping with blood.
The chaotic footsteps suddenly approached, the girl frowned, reached out and pushed open a palace door by the corridor, dodged in.
However, as soon as the door of the room was closed, a strong force suddenly struck, and the wind in the palm of the hand was as sharp as a knife.
The other party's strength is extremely great, and Chu Qiao was actually controlled by someone without checking. She reacted very quickly, and she didn't have time to see who the other party was, so she turned around and looked back at her wrist, and a snake hand grabbed the other party's throat. However, at the moment when she succeeded, a slender but cold palm tightly pinched her snow-white neck.
The shot is like electricity, evenly matched.
The doors and windows were closed, there was not a glimmer of light, and the room was so dark that it was impossible to see each other's eyebrows. The faces and figures of the two were hidden in the darkness, and only the sharp eyes shimmered with a faint light, like two beasts meeting in a narrow way.
Even though he restrained it, he did not make a ruthless move. Almost at the same time, both sides opened their fingers in tacit understanding, and seeing that the other party did the same, they continued to let go, and finally, facing each other, still could not hide the tension in the air.
"Sister Yun, why are you doing this." A gentle voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard. The woman was dressed in a blue brocade phoenix court dress, a purple gold carved crown, water sleeves like clouds, a slender waist, a face like a peach and a plum spring flower, and her eyes like a June Lanhu, surrounded by a group of palace people, slowly walked forward.
"You and my sister, how can my sister bear to see you make a big mistake?" The people brought up a nanmu deck chair. Concubine Shu flicked her sleeves, sat down slowly, took the letter untied from Bai Diao with a faint smile, opened it and took a closer look, and said, "It is a big crime for a harem woman to pass on a private relationship with someone outside the palace, and my sister has been in charge of the Sixth Palace for many years, don't you know?" Why did you make such a mistake? ”
The most noble woman of the former dynasty stood in the courtyard, wearing a dark purple colored gold dress, with a straight neck, followed by two palace maids, still without losing the color of luxurious grace, but her face was reduced and slightly pale. Mu Henayun didn't look at Concubine Shu, and said in a deep voice to the two palace people behind him, "Let's go." ”
"Stop."
Muhe Nayun was unheard of and continued on his way.
Several chamberlains immediately stepped forward, stopped in front of Mu Henayun, and said in a deep voice: "Queen, please stay, the noble concubine has something to say." ”
There was a crisp snap, and Mu Henayun slapped the waiter's face hard. The Great Xia Empress raised her eyes and shouted coldly: "What is your identity?" Dare to stand in the way of Hongu? ”
The chamberlain was stunned for a moment, and knelt on the ground with a thud. Ten years after Mu Henayun, years of accumulated power have scared these subordinates like cicadas.
Shu Guifei's eyes were cold, and she said lightly: "Sister Fengwei has not diminished, and her demeanor is still the same, which is gratifying." ”
Mu Henayun's face was like ice, and he said in a cold voice: "You and I have never known each other, and we have no friendship, this palace has never been afraid of you before, and I don't plan to take you in my eyes now." The prosperity and decline of women in the palace are also normal, since everyone is friend or foe, you don't need to be sweet with your sisters and sisters. ”
Concubine Shu smiled and said, "Sister Yun is like a fire, her heart is straightforward, and my sister really likes you more and more." ”
"Don't dare to be, there is still something to do in this palace, so I won't accompany you to chat and enjoy the flowers." With that, Mu Henayun turned around and wanted to leave.
"Wait!" Shu Guifei's pretty face was cold, she slowly stood up, held up the letter in her hand, and said in a deep voice, "Isn't my sister going to explain?" ”
Just look at the refreshing one
