Chapter 167: Regaining the Old Mountains and Rivers
"When will the courtiers hate. Drive a long car and step through the lack of Helan Mountain. Zhuang is hungry for Hulu meat, laughing and thirsty for Xiongnu blood. To start from the beginning, regain the old mountains and rivers, towards the sky. ”
On a lonely snowy night, the cold wind howled, and it was even more fierce than the flames.
In the darkness, a bright red shadow slowly drifted towards the gate of the city tower.
The snow did not stop, dyeing the black hair of the woman in red white, as if she was born like this, without the slightest sense of disobedience.
The jade flute in her hand also seemed to be infected by the temperature of her master's palm, emitting a particularly shiny green light. Even it knows that the day of shame has come.
Before she could get closer, the gates opened.
She raised the corners of her mouth, smiled playfully, and slowly raised the jade flute, her eyes deep and firm.
In the dark night, I only heard her shouting sharply, "Although I ride the wind today, I will show my talents and talents." Sweep away the evil and evil in the world, and pour out the hatred of gentlemen through the ages! Righteous men! Fight with me! ”
At this time, I saw that the snow that had just been empty suddenly appeared with hundreds of heads! It turned out that they were Taoyuan righteous people who had been lurking around the city tower for a long time.
"Rush!"
Hundreds of warriors raised their arms and shouted loudly in the sky.
According to the plan in advance, the soldiers were divided into three routes, and the men and horses were led by Shenglan all the way, and they entered the Taiji Hall directly from Xiangyun Gate.
The Queen Mother was pinned down by Nie Feng, and Xie Hui had also fled, at this time the palace was completely controlled by the forces of Huayan, and Shenglan could go straight to the Taiji Hall without much effort.
On the other hand, 300 people led by Yutai Mingyue were stationed at the city gate to prevent Liu Yizhen and Liu Yikang from taking advantage of the situation.
Finally, and the most critical step, led by Huayan himself, went straight to the Yunlong Gate.
The empty streets are invisible, and there are faint songs of warblers within the palace walls.
Hua Yan raised his hand to signal his subordinates behind him to pause, but he jumped off the horse.
She obsessively searched for the song to move forward.
How beautiful this rhythm is, you listen, the woman's beautiful voice, the tactful and melodious melody, and the ethereal Shengxun, like everything that should be in a fairyland.
She gently pushed the door, and the unhindered door opened easily. She continued to move forward obsessively, noticing no unusual signs of the deserted surroundings.
A golden light flashed in front of her eyes, shining like the sun's rays, dazzling. The closer she got to the golden light, the closer the song became.
She seemed to be in a hallucination, drowsy, and her eyes were foggy. Maybe it was because of the wonderful rhythm, maybe it was because of the excitement of the victory, she couldn't tell.
Her mind vaguely flashed that majestic rainy night, at that time her name was Mi Ziqing, that night she walked in the night rain with a heart that was about to break, she was walking in the night rain blankly, her eyes were a aimless black hole, she couldn't control her body, kept moving forward, forward, just like the feeling she is experiencing now.
A swift and approaching light finally stopped her steps, and she woke up from her confusion to another world.
She couldn't help but look up at the golden light again, it turned out to be a palace with three big characters inlaid with gold, 'Bliss Palace'
She breathed a sigh of relief lightly, and looked back at the scene that flashed in her mind just now, it was the last scene of Mi Ziqing's life, but it flashed at this moment, could it be an allegorical?
No one can answer.
Huayan laughed at himself, returned to an indifferent look on his face, and said coldly: "Who is it, you haven't shown up yet?" ”
In the darkness, Xing Antai quietly walked over, "I have seen Miss Huayan in Xia Xing Antai." ”
Hua Yan turned around slowly, nodded and smiled, "You transferred the guards of the Bliss Palace?" ”
Xing Antai leaned over and said, "Yes, everything is handled according to the instructions of the young lady, the emperor is still sleeping peacefully in the beauty pool in the backyard." ”
Hua Yan's brows furrowed slightly, and he suddenly changed his soft tone, and asked, "Lord Xu hasn't done it yet?" ”
Xing Antai lowered his head, rolled his eyes, and looked a little flustered, "Lord Xu, he...... He waited in the side hall, saying that he would wait for the young lady to come and give instructions in person......"
Before Xing Antai's lie was finished, he was seen through by Huayan in one fell swoop.
"Let Lord Xu come over immediately!" Hua Yan snorted coldly, waved his hand to the men waiting at the gate of the palace, and hundreds of warriors instantly leaped out, surrounding the surrounding area of the Bliss Palace.
She turned around and pushed open the door of the Bliss Palace, and walked quickly past the stunned dancers in the center of the hall to the beauty pool behind the wind screen.
Liu Yifu floated shirtless on the edge of the wine pool, drunk and hazy, still humming a little song without knowing sorrow, he was in a trance, and suddenly saw a touch of red yarn fluttering in front of his eyes, just like the scene when the red-clothed dancer threw it on his face on a moonlit night in the Mid-Autumn Festival.
He was suddenly obsessed, and frantically grabbed the red yarn in front of him, thinking that it was a dream again, but he never thought that the red yarn was really in his hands.
He looked incredulously at the other end of the red veil, and the face of the red-clothed dancer that fascinated him so clearly flashed in front of him!
His eyes widened with joy and excitement, and just as he tried to crawl towards the woman, he was pushed into the pool by a force, causing a splash.
Huayan flickered coldly, withdrew his sleeves with disdain, turned around and walked to the throne that originally belonged to Liu Yifu, leaning on.
At this time, Xu Xianzhi came in a hurry, he first looked around, then turned to Huayan and owed slightly, "Old decay is late, what does Miss Painting command?" ”
Drawing Yan raised her eyebrows, and said coldly: "Lord Xu, is this deliberately playing dumb riddles with me?" Why haven't you done it for a long time?! ”
Xu Xianzhi secretly wiped Han and replied modestly: "This ...... This must be a major event that will determine the world, how dare the old man rob the one that belongs to the third prince...... Stuff. ”
Hua Yan had already lost her patience, she stood up from her seat, took out a short knife from her waist and pointed it at Xu Xianzhi, walked in step by step, and sneered: "Xu Gong is worthy of being Xu Gong, even at this last moment, he still plans seamlessly." I guess, you must want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, if the third prince wins, you will kill Liu Yifu and smoothly submit to him. If the Queen Mother wins, you will keep him, and you can also get the title of self-sacrificing protector. Master Xu, am I guessing right? ”
Xu Xianzhi retreated in panic, knowing that he would not be able to escape the level of painting Yan after all, so he simply leaned over and confessed, "Miss Painting Yan, forgive Xu for the crime of ineffective work!" Xu embraced the heart of the three princes, and it has never changed from beginning to end! Otherwise, Xu would not have agreed to help the young lady open the inner courtyard of the palace from the beginning! ”
"So, please Lord Xu, let's do it?" Huayan changed his hand, but handed the handle of the knife to Xu Xianzhi.
Xu Xianzhi was still hesitant.
"Why, Lord Xu doesn't cherish the opportunity to show loyalty to the third prince so much?" Hua Yan sneered.
The bright shadow of the knife finally woke up Liu Yifu in the drunken dream, he fluttered his feet, trying to lean on the shore, but he was so weak that he couldn't climb up, so he had to stare at the inexplicable two people in front of him with frightened eyes, and shouted angrily: "What do you want to do?!" Want to rebel?! ”
The two people on the shore didn't seem to hear Liu Yifu's shouting, and still maintained their expressions just now, motionless.
Finally, Xu Xianzhi slowly raised his trembling hands to catch the knife in Hua Yan's hand.
Huayan laughed, but withdrew her hand, turned around and walked towards Liu Yifu, she planned to do it herself.
She looked firmly at Liu Yifu and walked towards Liu, she had never killed anyone with her own hands, although she really wanted to taste what it was like to kill someone. And at this moment, no one can stop her anymore!
One step, two steps, three steps......
She suddenly returned to the outside of the Jiaofang Palace, and the moment she ran to her sister Huashu, she waved her sleeves slightly, the door opened, and Huashu fell in a pool of blood with a hideous face......
"You're crazy! ...... Come! Come to the rescue! Waiting for me...... I'm going to kill you all over the house! Don't ......" Liu Yifu desperately pressed his bloodied right hand, and the pain gradually became speechless, and the blood instantly infected the entire wine pool.
Liu Yifu took advantage of the confusion of his face, and escaped in a panic, only to be cut off the tail finger of his right hand.
Perhaps it was the piercing pain that finally aroused his desire to survive, and he quickly escaped from the wine pool after overcoming his limp limbs paralyzed by alcohol.
Xu Xianzhi looked at the scene in front of him desolately, and no longer chased the dying fugitive, and sat down dejectedly.
The sound of the hilt slipping out of her hand woke her up, and she looked around in a daze, but quickly regained her senses.
She passed Xu Xianzhi, who was sitting beside her, and chased after her with a smile along the bloodstains on the ground, and she suddenly felt a kind of ecstasy chasing her prey.
However, Liu Yifu had already fallen into the hands of Xing Antai, who was surrounded outside.
"Miss, the ...... Liu Yifu has been taken down, what should I do? Xing Antai stepped forward and arched his hand.
Huayan settled down, tried to withdraw from the dream just now, and said awe-inspiringly: "Immediately confiscate the jade seal and ribbon, abolish all positions, and be imprisoned as a commoner, waiting for the third prince to fall." ”
Before Xing Antai could answer, Hua Yan left the Elysium as if he had fled.
When he looked up, he saw only the last faint red shadow.
It all happened so fast that he didn't have time to get a closer look at her.
For some reason, she had a chill on her body, and she shuddered just by standing beside her.
Maybe that's why he didn't dare to look at her.
was thinking about it, but saw Xu Xianzhi walking over slowly.
I saw that his eyes were blank, his lips were white, and he still had words in his mouth, "First Emperor...... Emperor Xian, don't blame the minister, the minister is also forced to be helpless! ”
"Xu Gong ......" Xing Antai just wanted to step forward to comfort, but was pushed away by Xu Xianyi, he came to Liu Yifu who was escorted, knelt down, and kowtowed: "Your Majesty, please forgive the ministers for not assisting you anymore!" Although this country is your country, this world is the world of the people! The will of the people cannot be violated! ”
As he spoke, he bowed to Liu Yifu three times with tears in his eyes, got up and left without looking back.
Liu Yifu was also escorted by Xing Antai and temporarily imprisoned in the dungeon in the palace.
The lights are not extinguished, but the night continues......
