Chapter 121 [Cornered]
Chapter 121 [Cornered]
I couldn't tell whether it was dawn or dark, and the heavy rain poured down outside the window, and the serpentine lightning tore half of the sky from time to time, splitting the twilight to reveal a pale and tearful world.
When Ru Mo woke up, one side of the bed was empty, and a strong bad premonition hit her heart, and she couldn't care about it, she put on a piece of clothing and ran out, but was stopped by the entanglement guarding the door - "The son has an order, and the little lady is not allowed to go out." ”
"Tang'er, if you want to continue to be my maid in the future, you can get out of the way." Ru Mo commanded plainly, and her tone was so firm that no one could question it.
Tang'er opened her mouth, not knowing whether to stop it, her face was at a loss, and then she simply picked up an oil-paper umbrella, "It's raining outside, so the little lady should take an umbrella." ”
Ru Mo didn't hear it, pulled the umbrella open, and ran into the rain in a panic, the cold rain suddenly invaded her skin, and even her chest trembled uneasily.
There was a strongest thought in her heart, that is, her brother could not be fine, no matter what, she could not lose her brother again. The rain became heavier and heavier, and she fell on the bluestone brick, and a sudden pain in her lower abdomen hit.
At this time, the post house where Leng Su lived had been surrounded by guards on the third floor and the outer three floors. The corners of Xiao Yan's lips curled up beautifully, and he leaned over and asked in a low voice; "Say, what is the purpose of your coming to Jianchang?"
"The prince has always been like a god, don't you know everything? Do you still need to ask me?" Leng Su knelt on the ground, her eyelashes casting heavy shadows on her cheeks, although she covered a little emotion, she couldn't resist the shaking of her hands and feet.
Xiao Yan's eyes were as cold as a blade slashing through the air, and the corners of his lips twitched with a touch of mockery, and said; "Why, you're not afraid of death at this time? This king wants to see Uncle Leng, who has always lingered in the Qinglou, how bold is he?" As he spoke, a cold knife was already on Leng Su's neck.
"Xiao Yan, you villain, my sister is really blind to follow you, you use Ru Mo to fight the emperor, don't think that no one knows, you want to rebel....... Although our emperor is not as capable as you, he really loves my sister, unlike you, he will only take advantage of my sister's love for you everywhere, you are not worthy of loving Ru Mo, let alone being my brother-in-law......." Leng Su roared uncontrollably, and the face of the national character had already shown hideousness.
Xiao Yan was not provoked, but lowered his sleeves, his expression was serene, and his words were calm, "So, do you admit that the emperor sent you?"
"I ...... I....... I...... I didn't say it......." Leng Su was speechless, the sweat on his forehead kept dripping, and finally he panicked, covering his neck and crying; "Lord Wang....... Brother-in-law....... I know I was wrong........ You know what you should know........ Please spare me a cheap life....... For Ru Mo's sake....... Okay, okay?"
Xiao Yan frowned deeply, squinted his eyes slightly, and said lightly; "Oh? Are you begging the king to spare your life?"
Leng Su thought that there was hope, sniffed, and put it on the verge of almost, "Brother-in-law, you can spare my life, and let my sister thank you then." ”
Xiao Yan's eyes were like knives, he glanced Leng Su up and down a few times, his expression was cold, and then he said to Fan Yundao; "Fan Yun, take Leng Su's accusation and read it to him."
"Yes." Fan Yun held the accusation in both hands and raised his voice; "Supervising the assassin Shi Lengsu colluded with the eunuch Huang Taiping, privately sold poisonous incense, embezzled treasury silver, robbed the people's daughters, and blatantly committed violence in Jianchang, causing public anger and damaging the emperor's ........"
"Okay, don't read it anymore, if you keep reading like this, I won't be able to cut off ten heads." Leng Su drank Fan Yun, Huo Ran raised his head, the fear and timidity on his face became more and more obvious, and he cried softly under his feet; "I know I deserve it, and my sins are unforgivable, but can I ....... Don't cut off my head....... As long as you don't cut off your head....... It's okay to give me a life sentence........"
Fan Yun saw that Leng Su was so frightened that he almost urinated, so he couldn't help but slowly bow and walked in front of Xiao Yan, "Lord Wang, can you take it lightly......."
"Fan Yun, even you help him intercede?" Xiao Yan's face changed slightly, and a faint surprise appeared in his eyes, "Is it for Ru Mo?"
Fan Yun's eyes sank, took a step back, and said; "The minister is for the sake of the prince, there is nothing else, maybe he still has unused value, why not keep him?"
Xiao Yan was moved, his tone was no longer cold, but low and terrifying, "Then save him from ......" Before he finished speaking, he was quickly interrupted by the anxious Leng Su, "Lord Wang, don't hesitate, my Leng Su is a cheap life, not a threat from you royal relatives, last night the flying pigeon passed the book, the emperor told me, he said an amazing secret, that is, I am also the son of the emperor....... Haha......."
Xiao Yan's eyes contracted suddenly, and immediately became as deep as a pool, and he said coldly word by word; "What do you say? Say it again?"
Fan Yun suddenly felt bad, he had already felt the cold slaughter in Xiao Yan's eyes, so he had to lower his eyes and say slowly, "The prince doesn't have to be angry with a pariah like him, he is afraid that he will be frightened crazy, and what he says is crazy." ”
"How crazy am I talking about? I am indeed the son of the former emperor, and my dead mother can testify......" Don't wait for Leng Su, who is stupid, to finish speaking, and with a sound of brushing the ground, Xiao Yan's saber has already reached Leng Su's chest, and the air is suddenly filled with the smell of blood.
A hideous lightning bolt struck, and the white light instantly reflected every drop of rain, like a curtain of thousands of beads. When Ru Mo ran to the front of the post house, her thin clothes were already drenched, her hair was tightly clinging to her skin, and almost her whole body was dripping.
A few steps away, Shen Youmu was stunned for a moment, then rushed over, hit the umbrella he was holding on top of Ru Mo's head, and paused; "You shouldn't be here."
"Brother Shen, are you trying to stop me?" There seemed to be a fire burning in Ru Mo's chest, and her lips trembled; "Let me in."
Shen Yue hugged Ru Mo's arm, supporting the weight of her whole body, and her eyes were silent, and said; "Why bother tossing your body like this?"
"Because my brother is my only relative......." Ru Mo's body was already shaky, and warm water droplets fell from her eyes, and she choked helplessly, "Brother Shen, let me in." ”
Shen Yue sighed, asked the guards to get out of the way, and then said; "Let's go, I'll go in with you."
Ru Mo glanced at Shen Yue gratefully, but this road that was not far away seemed to be too long, no matter how she walked, she couldn't walk in front of her brother, just like when she was a child, her brother ran in front with candy, and she always couldn't catch up......
In the post house, Leng Su suddenly grabbed the sword in Xiao Yan's hand, looked at him with a steady, and declared to him, "You don't dare to kill me, I have the same royal blood in my body as you, and I have the same noble status, besides, I am still Ru Mo's own brother, kill me, how can you face my sister?"
Xiao Yan raised his chin, his face changed, the sparks in his eyes burst out, it seemed that he had become angry, and the unbearable air flow in his body rushed to the end of the sword, making the tip of the sword reflect a strange and dazzling luster.
Leng Su saw that Xiao Yan was holding the hilt of the sword, and he didn't stab it for a long time, so he simply let go of his guts, leaned forward, half-closed his eyes, and snorted, "Do you stab or not?" If you want to kill, you have to chop ......."
"Shut up." Fan Yun drank Leng Su, he was afraid that Xiao Yan would really stab him if he was angry, he was not for this Leng Su who died a hundred times without being wronged, he was for Ru Mo, from Ning Xue, I heard that Ru Mo was pregnant, how could she withstand the stimulation of losing her brother? He didn't want to see it, so he tried his best to stop it, but obviously this cold millet who didn't know what to do had already challenged Xiao Yan's limit.
"Bold and cold, don't let go quickly, be careful of soiling the prince's sword." Fan Yun shouted anxiously as he glared at Leng Su.
Xiao Yan's lips raised a proud and noble smile, but his voice was still frosty and icy, "He really doesn't deserve to stain this king's sword." Even if he killed a hundred Leng Su, his eyes would not blink, but he was worried about his Mo'er, last night's tricks and begging, all turned into spring water, suppressing his anger at this time, but what he didn't expect was that the powerful internal force had invaded the sword body, and as soon as his wrist was loosened, Leng Su, who had no martial arts, was suddenly hit to the ground by an inertia on the tip of the sword.
The moment Ru Mo crashed in, what appeared in front of him was Leng Su who fell to the ground, holding Xiao Yan's saber in his hand, his eyes were like camel bells, and the blood on his chest was constantly gushing outward.
"Brother, don't be afraid, it'll be fine, my sister will call you the best doctor." Ru Mo squatted down, her cold hands tightly wrapped around Leng Su, and her words were already choked, "Don't leave Mo'er, mother is gone, father is gone, Brother Hui is gone, brother, don't go again......"
Leng Su gasped for breath, glared at Xiao Yan angrily, his pale face flushed with a hint of blushing, and said intermittently; "Sister...... It was Xiao Yan who killed it....... I........ You have to ......... To my brother........ Avenge. ”
Ru Mo held her brother's face, only to feel that her brother's face was as white as a cloud, his lips were not a trace of blood, and his eyes were very frightening, she used to hate this unassuming brother, but when she saw her brother's breathing stopped, she suddenly found that she was very useless, letting the relatives around her continue to die one by one until they disappeared, is it really powerless to protect them? Or did they get caught up in this royal feud?
The body was suddenly embraced, very familiar with the mellow breath, with the smell of ambergris, blowing in her face, but it could no longer distract her attention and disturb her mind. What's he doing? Apologetic? Regret? It must not be, she has never forgotten that the man she has always loved with all her heart is in control of life and death, and it is even more desperate for her!
