Chapter 1: The Assassin Comes Again
Concubine Mei knelt in front of the emperor in plain clothes, her expression was unprecedentedly flat, a pair of blue eyes had lost their brilliance, she seemed to have reached a moment of despair, and had given up on survival.
The emperor couldn't bear to look at this poor woman, and looked at the queen. The queen ignored it, got up and said: "There is nothing wrong with Concubine Mei, since ancient times, the harem has been competing for favor, and you can think of any way." Didn't the emperor always doubt the identity of that child? Since Concubine Mei is not pregnant at all, it also shows that she is still loyal to the emperor. It's okay to be grounded according to the concubines, and besides, the concubine has a life-saving grace for the emperor? At present, the imperial doctor's medicine is not good, and only she can dispense medicine that can alleviate the emperor's condition, so Concubine Mei can't die yet. Her words clearly meant that Concubine Mei had a credit to the emperor, but secretly she said to Leng Yue, if Concubine Mei died, the emperor would also die.
Leng Yue is not a fool, so she naturally heard the sound outside the strings, and said lightly: "That's it, the queen will look at it." Although she can't wait to kill Concubine Mei immediately, what the queen said is not unreasonable, the emperor must live on Concubine Mei's medicine at the moment, Long Xi has not grown up yet, and he can't take charge of the government when the emperor dies, all she can do now is endure and continue to endure.
Seeing that Leng Yue did not insist on killing Concubine Mei, the emperor was very grateful in his heart, and said with a smile: "Since this is the case, I will listen to the queen, Concubine Mei is grounded for one year, and she is not allowed to contact anyone outside the Golden Palace during the grounding period." The gold medal for avoiding death was confiscated and handed over to the concubine. "Is the gold medal for avoiding death considered compensation?
Leng Yue got up and said lightly: "The concubine thanked the emperor, and the concubine retired first if she was unwell." ”
Concubine Mei didn't seem to have woken up from her trance, although Lin Wenlang betrayed her, she was still very reluctant from her heart. She didn't care whether she died or not, and now, since she won't die, her revenge has ignited the flames again......
In the following days, Concubine Mei was grounded, and only the emperor often went to see her, revealing a tenderness that an emperor should not have...... The queen is very quiet and rarely comes out except to take care of the harem. The days passed quite plainly, and Leng Yue felt that it was too boring, so she simply focused on writing some textbooks to teach Long Xi and Bai Hefei.
The weather is getting a little colder, and the range of activities of the cold moon is narrowed to the hot springs and the Huiyue Palace. On this day, Leng Yue drank too much wine and felt a little hot, so he ordered the palace maids to open all the palace doors, and then fell asleep on the embroidery pier.
Later, I was reading a book by the sound of flat ping-pong; The net military woke up, Leng Yue opened her eyes, and what was staged in front of her was a kung fu mixed fighting performance, and the sword with that handle was glowing with cold light. There were palace maids and eunuchs gathered around her, and there were several corpses of eunuchs and palace maids on the ground. Sitting up, Leng Yue looked at the fight coldly.
"Niangniang, please take refuge in the inner hall." Ling Tian was in front of her, and there was blood on his left arm.
"I'm afraid there are assassins inside and outside the Huiyue Palace now, and if you go out of this door, you will find your own death." Leng Yue said, and then said to Nian Jiuling: "Leave a few alive, don't kill them all." Then he quietly leaned against the embroidery pier and watched the killing in front of him. The terrifying aura of death surrounded her, and Leng Yue was surprised that she didn't feel sad or nervous, is this the reason why she practiced martial arts?
A masked man struggled to jump out of the battle circle and slash off the top of her head with a sword, but unfortunately someone moved faster than him, and a sword pierced into the back of his heart, and he fell straight down less than a foot away from Leng Yue, his eyes glared at her, the blood from the corner of his mouth flowed to the ground, and he struggled and swallowed his breath. Leng Yue clenched her fists and told herself that she must not close her eyes. Some lives are lost without mercy.
After a few more incidents, the masked man was eliminated except for the one that had escaped, and the other nine were all killed, and the corpses were lying on the carpet. There were still three guards left in the Huiyue Palace, and their clothes were more or less torn. The three of them half-knelt in front of Leng Yue together: "Niangniang is frightened, and the ministers are incompetent." ”
Leng Yue stood up and walked up to them and said, "Send the dead guards and palace maids back to their hometown for burial, and give them more silver at home to make amends for me." The Assassin ...... hesitated for a moment: "The Assassin can be buried outside the palace casually, and remember, you are not allowed to insult the dead, even the Assassin." ”
"Niangniang, the identity of the assassin is unknown, Niangniang's kindness to bury him is afraid that it will fuel his ambition to assassinate Niangniang, the minister thinks ......" Ling Tian wanted to speak.
"Come and assassinate me, do you think they're going to bring something for you to testify? Even if there were, it was only used to blame someone, they were just acting on orders, and even if they were hung outside the palace to expose their bodies, they would still come. Just take precautions in the future. Leng Yue said.
"Go back, let the Imperial Doctor take a look, and take some medicine. After the injury is healed, he will return to Huiyue Palace to be on duty. Leng Yue said.
The three got up and bowed their heads and bowed, then went out.
Looking at the corpses all over the ground, Leng Yue closed her eyes and took a deep breath, got up and came to the outside of the hall, the guards had increased a lot, Leng Yue took Peaches to the hot spring to soak and relax, took off her clothes and soaked in the water, Leng Yue looked at her left hand, because her fist was too tight just now, her nails pierced into the flesh, and now it began to hurt as soon as she touched the water.
Now seeing a living person dying in front of her has made her heart unable to make waves, and that numbness is slowly penetrating into her heart, or maybe it is often said, and she is used to it.
Soak until dawn, Leng Yue didn't take a bath, because she didn't close her eyes all night, Leng Yue was a little top-heavy, and returned to Huiyue Palace, although it had been cleaned up, but there was still a faint smell of blood in the air, Leng Yue wrinkled her nose in disgust.
Leng Yue couldn't sleep at all, and as soon as she closed her eyes, the assassin's eyes stared at her and the blood was overwhelming. It turns out that she is still not cold enough...... Let the palace maids take many lamps and light them, and then sit on the bed with a calm face.
Who was going to kill her? And is it blatantly killing people in the palace? Leng Yue thought of many people, and denied many people, things in this palace are often unexpected, among these people, maybe you think that the people who hate you the most are the hands, but it is often those who you think are safe stabbed by the knives. She Leng Yue was in that palace, but there were too many people who wanted her to die...... Except for the emperor, at least he wouldn't want her to die when he was sober.
Nian Jiuling replied that the assassin had been buried, and nothing useful had been found. The guards sent people to carry the corpses back to their hometowns for burial this morning, and each of them was generously paid a thousand taels of silver. Leng Yue nodded.
It's almost fifteen in the past few days, so the moon is very big and round, and Leng Yue sits there motionless, and the cool breeze blows her casually draped clothes.
"Niangniang, it's cold in the middle of the night, please go in and rest!" Nian Jiuling said beside him.
Cold Moon didn't move.
"Go down, I'll sit alone for a while." Leng Yue said.
"Niangniang......" Nian Jiuling hesitated, who dared to be careless with what happened last time.
"Go down, I'm going to think about it, it's time to have some fun tomorrow, I'm used to the hustle and bustle, so I'm not used to being dull. I'm going to do something and get that guy out on his own. A sly smile hung on the corner of Leng Yue's mouth......
