431. Baptism of blood
Emperor Qi Wen pondered for a while before nodding: "Okay, I will send someone to monitor you." Looking at the cute appearance of the child after crying, she rarely smiled, so why should she be involved in innocent lives?
She didn't know where she got the strength, so she turned and left.
When she got out of the Chaolong Palace, Mu Wanqing raised her head slightly, and felt that the sunshine in this world did not belong to her at all.
Mu Wanqing held the child and slowly walked back to Jingcui Palace, even though she was physically and mentally tired, she still survived. As soon as she walked into Jingcui Palace, she saw Huo Huan and Chen Danqing pounce on her.
"Qing'er!" Chen Danqing called, "Child, clear her ......"
But the next moment, Chen Danqing saw Qingyang in her arms, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Chen Danqing hugged the child, and then said with palpitations: "Someone from the Dragon Hall came to take Qingyang away just now, and I was afraid that something would happen." ”
Mu Wanqing shook her head and said casually: "It's nothing, the emperor misses the child." ”
Chen Danqing was a little puzzled, seeing Mu Wanqing's pale face, she was a little worried: "That's ...... What did the emperor do when he summoned you to the Chaolong Palace? ”
"Nothing." Mu Wanqing's face was pale, "I'm going back to the palace today, I'm afraid I won't enter the palace for the time being, you ...... Take care. ”
The last sentence came from her heart.
Huo Huan's face was gloomy, he had mostly guessed something, he lowered his voice and asked, "Is it that your father is forcing you to do something?" ”
"There is so much persecution in the world." Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, as if nothing had happened.
The people sent by Emperor Qi Wen to monitor him were still waiting, and Mu Wanqing knew that she couldn't delay any longer, so she also glanced at Qing Yang again before turning around.
"Qing'er!" Huo Huan stared at her back tightly, if nothing happened, he naturally wouldn't believe it.
Mu Wanqing didn't turn around, she knew that if she left, she wouldn't see them again. However, she still couldn't turn around, and her voice squeezed out from between her clenched teeth: "Take care." ”
After that, she just walked forward, Huo Huan and Chen Danqing wanted to catch up, but they were stopped by Yu Linwei, no matter how Huo Huan screamed, Mu Wanqing still didn't look back.
She knew in her heart that this was the point of no return, and Emperor Qi Wen just wanted her to die, so let Emperor Qi Wen get her wish.
The New Year has just passed, but there is bad news in the palace, and Concubine Xu died of illness, casting a shadow on the year.
But these days have been like years.
Even if she is in the palace, Mu Wanqing is like being imprisoned. Until one night, someone sneaked into her room.
Mu Wanqing heard a little sound, and saw a figure flash quickly in front of her eyes, her eyes suddenly widened, and when she was about to scream loudly, she was covered by someone who came.
"It's me."
This voice quieted Mu Wanqing, and she nodded, indicating that she already knew his identity.
Du Heng pulled down the black cloth on his face, and when he saw that Mu Wanqing was still fine, he said, "What are you planning?" Do you know that the eldest prince is in a hurry? ”
Mu Wanqing was stunned, thinking that Huo Huan asked Du Heng to come, but there was no need for him to tell the truth. She bowed her head slightly, her chin had a faint and firm arc in the dim candle flame, and said, "Du Heng, if you come here just to ask this, I have nothing to say." ”
Du Heng was a little anxious, he didn't want to care about this matter originally, but he and Mu Wanqing have known each other for a long time after all, and he didn't want to watch Mu Wanqing walk into the fire pit and see death without help.
"Mu Wanqing, don't think that no one knows what you are doing now, even if the eldest prince can't see through it, but I'm an outsider, can you hide it from me?" Du Heng said angrily, he didn't care about any respectful etiquette, stepped forward and grabbed Mu Wanqing's arm, "I have already arranged it, someone will send you to Zengcheng, as long as you are by King Zhuang's side, you will be safe." ”
Mu Wanqing glanced at Du Heng in surprise, and then turned her head coldly: "If I go to Zengcheng, it will really be a dead end." ”
"Then go to other places, I believe that King Zhuang will return to Beijing soon, you can avoid the limelight elsewhere first." Du Heng was a little annoyed, Mu Wanqing should have followed Huo Chen to Zengcheng at the beginning, and he would not be as passive as he is now.
"I don't need to avoid the limelight, I'm not in danger at all." Mu Wanqing said lightly, "Du Heng, if you have this concern for me, you might as well take care of yourself, if someone finds out that you sneaked into the palace, it is not enough for you to die ten times." ”
Mu Wanqing's words were ruthless, and a trace of anger flashed on Du Heng's face.
"You ......" Du Heng stared at Mu Wanqing, but she still looked arrogant, Du Heng couldn't help it anymore, and roared: "Do you know that you are dying!" ”
He has been in the palace for many years, doesn't he know Emperor Qiwen's methods? Recently, Concubine Xu died suddenly, and he guessed that this was inseparable from Mu Wanqing. If he hadn't been sad about his conscience, he wouldn't have helped Huo Huan.
The night breeze penetrated through the cracks in the window, shaking the originally faint candle flame to jump and extinguish.
Her face was half-dark, but she was so calm: "I know, but what can I do?" ”
"Then you should follow King Zhuang to Zengcheng that day, but it's not too late, I have a way to get you out of the city." Du Heng said urgently.
"Even if I can escape for a while, I can't escape for a lifetime." This is also one of the reasons why she stayed in the first place, since the crossing, she has lived enough, and she has no regrets.
Du Heng was speechless for a moment, he couldn't think of how to refute Mu Wanqing.
Mu Wanqing glanced at him, sat down, and said: "Du Heng, the people of the Mu family should have died a long time ago, and now only me and Mu Yanrong are left. There are some things that can't be avoided, but it's better to face them bravely, maybe because of one escape, many people will be killed. ”
If she hadn't crossed over, then the real Mu Wanqing would have really died, and maybe things wouldn't have developed to this point. Looking at this situation, it is because of her that it has become today's situation.
Emperor Qi Wen said that she deserved it.
"Are you sure you won't go? Ants are still stealing life, why should you do this? Du Heng was a little sad, a woman, but she was forced to this point.
Mu Wanqing smiled lightly, although her cheeks were thin, she was also extremely beautiful: "Du Heng, if you go to hell, I will tell Lord Yama, why did you give me such a big test, why didn't you just let me reincarnate." ”
Du Heng was shocked in his heart, although he didn't quite understand what Mu Wanqing meant by this, but he could also hear that Mu Wanqing's intention to die had been decided.
"Okay, you can do it yourself." Du Heng said coldly.
She was the only one left in the room, quiet, terrifying.
She's just waiting for death, and she's afraid of something.
Blood stained the snow red, and the sound of fighting filled the valley.
This battle has been fought for several days, and the wounded soldiers who were not seriously injured have also returned to the battlefield, and they all know in their hearts that if they still do not block the wolf army with their flesh and blood, then they will attack Zengcheng.
The two sides fought more and more fiercely, almost reversing day and night.
At this time, Chu Qing had just returned from the battlefield, he was also slightly injured, his body was already stained with a lot of blood, and it stinked slightly, he didn't care about it, he walked into the largest military tent, and saw Huo Chen still lying on the bed, and couldn't help but get anxious.
"Uncle Mo, hasn't the prince woken up yet?" Chu Qing took off his helmet and asked with a worried expression.
"Didn't the old man say that he would wait for ten days?" Uncle Mo didn't look back, frowned and lifted the quilt, revealing most of Huo Chen's shoulders, there was a scar on it, scarlet red, it looked shocking.
And Huo Chen's eyes were closed, and his lips were pale and bloodless, as if he had no breath.
"But now that the war is critical, the prince can't be in a coma anymore, otherwise how can he win the wolf country?" Chu Qing took a step forward, and now Yufei was still fighting on the battlefield, and his brows had not been stretched for a moment.
Just a few days ago, Huo Chen and Wolf Ke fought on the battlefield, but I didn't expect that someone in the wolf army was hurting people with Huo Chen's secret arrows in the back, and the arrows were still stained with venom, Uncle Mo spent a day and a night to save Huo Chen's life, but Huo Chen has been unconscious, coupled with low morale, I'm afraid they won't be able to survive for long.
"What else? The toxins in his body had to be removed slowly. Uncle Mo frowned, he had stayed in the wolf country for a while, this poison had to be removed slowly, otherwise Huo Chen would also be in danger.
Chu Qing was so anxious that he glanced at Huo Chen again, even Uncle Mo had no way, for the sake of safety, he had to send Huo Chen back to Zengcheng first.
Since the decision had been made, Chu Qing did not delay, and hurriedly went to make arrangements, but as soon as he got out of the military tent, he saw a person besieged, and the situation was very chaotic.
The soldier lunged forward, trying to take down the man in the middle, but the man dodged the attack with a swing of his whip, and then with another whip, he knocked the soldier back who had pounced.
"General Chu, this is a spy of the Wolf Country!" When the soldier saw Chu Qing's figure, he hurriedly said.
Chu Qing was shocked, he didn't expect that a wolf army sneaked in, but seeing that the person was wearing a Great Qi military uniform, he thought that he had also mixed in, he didn't say a word, he wanted to rush forward, but who knew that the person shouted: "Chu Qing!" ”
Chu Qing suddenly stopped, he still recognized this voice.
"Stop!" Chu Qing shouted, causing all the soldiers to stop.
The man breathed a sigh of relief, put the whip away, and raised his head slightly, Chu Qing could also see clearly at this time, it was Xi Yao.
"What are you doing here?" Chu Qing snorted coldly, now that Daqi and the Wolf Kingdom are at war, Xi Yao is here, could it be that he is here to assassinate Huo Chen?
