Chapter 135: The Edge of Life and Death
The bed was lifted in an instant, and the sudden bright light made Hua Xuanji can't help but squint her eyes. When I opened it again, I saw the queen who had put on all the clothes and was squinting at him, and the emperor who was wearing a bright yellow robe and couldn't hide his anger in his eyes.
looked up at the queen incredibly, obviously she was still kind just now, but when she looked at herself at this time, even her eyes fell into a cold, and the emperor's cold eyes made Hua Xuanji almost out of breath, so she had to wave her hand and explain:
"I, I just accidentally passed by." However, after the explanation, Hua Xuanji immediately fell into an embarrassment, and pursed her lips uneasily, yes, even she couldn't believe this kind of explanation, let alone the emperor who had always been shrewd.
"No, Your Majesty." The queen grabbed the emperor's hand, "She is a spy of the Moguo, she came in to avoid the search of our army, the emperor, you must believe the concubine, she just threatened the concubine with a dagger, the emperor you don't believe that you can search her body." ”
The queen looked at Hua Xuanji for a while, and looked at the emperor for a while, and two tears slid down her smooth cheeks. looks very aggrieved.
The head was suddenly filled from blank, Hua Xuanji finally reacted, the queen did this series of actions, at all, she wanted to put herself to death, and if she wanted to blame, she could only blame her own life too much, even if she fell, she could fall into the death pit.
No wonder it was the woman who crawled out of the deep palace, and the series of performances just now did not make Hua Xuanji feel the slightest murderous intent, first telling a story that she had to believe, and then telling her all the things she didn't know.
In fact, if you think about it now, how could a dignified queen tell a little person who is not familiar with her, the only thing that can be explained is that she wants to put herself to death, because dead people can't speak.
Stretched out his hand to summon a few maids, searched Hua Xuanji's body randomly, and sure enough, found a dagger and the queen's note.
That dagger was given to him by Ye Hua, and then it became a habit to put it on her body, Hua Xuanji didn't expect that it could become a tool to kill her today.
The actions of several people immediately made the sides of the small tent noisy, and it seemed that there were many people who were curious about it. But because of the emperor's order, the Praetorian Guard surrounded the entire tent, and despite curiosity, no one dared to take a step closer.
took a deep breath, clenched the fist hidden under her sleeve tightly, Hua Xuanji closed her eyes weakly, could it be that she was really going to die here?
"Say." The emperor suddenly leaned down and reached out to clamp Hua Xuanji's small chin, "I should have doubted you about the crown prince last time, if it weren't for Ye Hua, you wouldn't have survived that night, but I didn't expect that you were really a spy in Moguo." ”
"Your Majesty." Hearing the emperor's words, Hua Xuanji calmed down, "The emperor wants to kill me for various reasons, and I can't explain it, I just hope that the emperor understands that I was wronged, because of stomach pain, I accidentally crashed into here, and the emperor believes it or not." Even if I'm careless today, besides, even if I can explain it clearly, after I learn the secret of your keeping the queen here, you won't let me go easily, right? ”
"Hahaha." The emperor suddenly raised his head and laughed, waved his hand to evacuate all his subordinates, and took the dagger that Ye Hua gave to Hua Xuanji by the way: "You are right, today, you will not be able to get out of this tent alive. ”
The cold dagger glowed with silver white light under the reflection of the candlelight, and the air was so quiet that you could even hear the sound of the emperor's footsteps walking towards her, Hua Xuanji was not afraid of death, because she was a person who had died once, and she was lucky to be alive, wasn't she?
But now, his heart hurts unconsciously, a cold eye in his mind keeps flashing, and the red robe, although he knows that Ye Hua's friendship with him is just false, and he is just a tool for him to step onto the throne, Hua Xuanji still can't suppress the feeling in his heart. It is undeniable that she loves Yehua, whether he loves him or not.
The snow-white dagger was against her lower abdomen, and the emperor's smile looked a little hideous for a moment, and the queen's eyes on one side were irrepressibly dyed with a layer of mist.
After so many years in the deep palace, dying a person is like pinching an ant to death, and she has slowly adapted to this environment of fighting each other.
It's just that when I think of the sadness that Hua Xuanji showed from the bottom of her heart when she heard the truth of the matter just now, and the horror and worry of learning that Ye Hua might die...... It is not difficult to see that she loves Yehua.
It's just that...... In order to keep this secret of herself, she had to die.
"Your Majesty!! It's a big deal, it's a big deal! Just when the sharp knife was about to be inserted into Hua Xuanji's lower abdomen, the heart-rending roar of the soldiers suddenly came from outside the tent, which shocked the emperor's hand holding the dagger and couldn't help but crook, and asked with a little displeasure: "What's wrong, there are people from other countries here, so frightened, not afraid of outsiders' jokes." ”
"Your Majesty." The man trembled and saluted, and his hand holding the ground buckled into the dirt, and he couldn't even get a sentence: "Your Majesty, report from the front, Moguo...... The country of Moguo set up camp ten miles outside the city of Dayang, and there were about 200,000 elite soldiers who came, the emperor!! ”
"What?" Before he had time to take care of Hua Xuanji, the dagger in the emperor's hand clanged to the ground, and the bright yellow robe waved vigorously. As if he remembered something, he slapped his forehead and said coldly: "Quick, take me to the main tent of the Desert Country." ”
"Your Majesty." The queen hurriedly grabbed the emperor's sleeve in a panic, and stretched out her finger to Hua Xuanji, who was sitting on the ground, "Then what should she do." ”
"It's really not a relief for me at all." The emperor frowned displeasedly, and waved his hand to the two soldiers outside the door: "Take a team of soldiers and bring her back to the prison overnight, remember, don't let the second prince know." Be quiet, and if you can't do it, you can see you! After saying that, he threw down a piece of token, and left the queen's tent with the little maid who had just come to report the news.
"Yes, yes, subordinates obey." A soldier picked up the token with a special dogleg, and several other soldiers hurriedly walked over, thinking that since Hua Xuanji was a prisoner, he didn't need to be too good, so he reached out and tugged at her shirt.
"Don't go yet!"
"I'll go myself." Hua Xuanji replied angrily, secretly glad that she stood up on the ground after escaping the catastrophe, but there was a touch of sadness between her eyebrows.
Even if he escapes today, the emperor will not let him go in the future, it seems that it is better to find a way to get out of here.
Secretly making a small calculation, Hua Xuanji followed the soldiers into a simple carriage, and for the sake of safety, Hua Xuanji's hands and feet were tied up like a zongzi, for fear that anything would go wrong.
"Who?" The carriage was staggering and was about to walk out of the barracks, when a loud voice suddenly came from the door, and a stout soldier directly blocked the carriage and said coldly: "Who is in the carriage?" Where are you going so late, don't you know that the emperor has an edict not to let you travel at will? ”
"We are just on the emperor's orders." As he spoke, the soldier took out the token and said domineeringly: "Open your dog's eyes and see, this is the token left by the emperor, why don't you let us out?" ”
"It's really the emperor's personal token." The soldiers sighed incredulously, and hurriedly got out of the way: "Please." ”
"Hmph." The leading soldier put the token back in his pocket without cutting it, snorted and just wanted to leave, but suddenly shivered as if he had seen a disaster star, and everyone was busy bowing to the front: "The second prince is auspicious." ”
"Get up." Ye Hua's voice was as lukewarm as before. However, to Hua Xuanji's ears, it sounded like a light in the dark, a life-saving straw in the water, but even her mouth was blocked by those soldiers, Hua Xuanji could only make a sound when she almost tried her best, only to hear Ye Hua outside and asked lightly:
"Have you seen the king's inner chamber?"
Your inner room, this girl and I am here, I didn't expect Ye Hua to remember herself, Hua Xuanji was surprised and delighted and whimpered helplessly, a pair of watery eyes glared at the boss, and a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead, but what she spit out was only a faint volume, and she only heard the soldiers quickly replied: "My subordinates haven't seen it." Just now, the emperor specially ordered not to let the second prince know, and the leading soldiers hurriedly said to Ye Hua:
"The emperor instructed the little ones to send things back to the palace as soon as possible, and the little ones didn't dare to go on a business trip again, this time is not enough, so the second prince ......"
As soon as he heard the news that the person in front of him didn't know Hua Xuanji, Ye Hua's cold eyes became dim, and he waved his hand casually: "Go, go, go." ”
"Second Prince Xie." Those few people were as excited as if they had received a magic pill, and hurriedly continued to drive Hua Xuanji's carriage.
The curtain in her ears was suddenly lifted by the wind, and Ye Hua's cool and handsome face passed by Hua Xuanji like that, biting the object in her mouth tightly, Hua Xuanji didn't think about it anymore, shook her body fiercely, and hit it hard towards the inner wall of the carriage.
"Bang dang." A fishy sweet breath surged up from her throat, and Hua Xuanji didn't know where she had hit it, anyway, her whole body hurt like she had fallen apart, but the only thing she wished was that the sound she made was enough to hear Ye Hua Ye Hua, who was rubbing shoulders with herself, clearly.
The corners of his eyebrows were slightly provoked in confusion, Ye Hua only felt a familiar breath echoing around him, and he always felt that Hua Xuanji was beside him again, hesitated for a second, and looked at the carriage with puzzled eyes, Ye Hua pursed his lips and stretched out his hand to stop: "Wait a minute, let this king see what is in this car?" ”
