Chapter Twenty-Three: Killing the Concubine with a False Will
"The demon girl fell from the sky to be a concubine, and the blood spattered the soul of the court, and the head of the demon girl was removed, and I was given back the holy dragon and the mountains and rivers." Leng Yue said slowly.
Ruyi was confused and asked, "What demon girl?" β
Leng Yue said with a smile: "The queen said that I was a demon girl, and made this into a children's song for the children to sing, it is estimated that soon they will force the emperor to kill me." β
"!" Ruyi exclaimed.
Leng Yue looked calm and said with a smile: "Ruyi, you clean up and go to the other courtyard, I don't have the heart to take care of your safety during this time." You don't have to think about anything, just take care of Xian'er. β
"Niangniang......" Ruyi didn't want to leave the cold moon.
Leng Yue got up and patted him on the shoulder and touched Long Xian again and said, "Go, you are my relatives, I don't want to lose you." β
Ruyi nodded and left with tears in her eyes. Peaches walked in and said, "Niangniang, you don't have to drive away the slave maid, the slave maid will haunt you even if she dies." β
"Slaves too." Another voice rang out.
Looking up, it turned out to be a married water spirit. She changed into the costume of a palace maid again, and said with a smile: "Ling Tian is afraid that the maid will be lonely, so let the slave maid come to accompany the maid to relieve her boredom." β
Leng Yue took Shui Ling's hand, and warmth rose in her heart, these two people are really thinking about her at all times.
The three of them sat together, talking about the past, but they didn't know that the two women in Qifeng Palace were forcing the emperor to kill her.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"Your Majesty, look at it, so many twists and turns ask you to kill the demon concubine, why do you still want to protect that woman?" The queen said, pointing to a large pile of recitals.
Concubine Mei also interjected: "Yes, Your Majesty, didn't the rebellious people say that as long as you kill the demon concubine, they will immediately lay down their weapons?" β
"This ......" How could the emperor want to kill Leng Yue in his heart? What kind of demon concubine, he supported it single-handedly.
"Your Majesty, if you don't kill the demon concubine, it will be difficult to calm the resentment of the people, and only by killing her can the world be peaceful. If the neighboring countries take advantage of this to attack, then our holy dragon rivers and mountains will be gone, why should you lose the great mountains and rivers for the sake of a woman? The queen began to persuade again.
Concubine Mei snorted coldly in her heart: "If it weren't for Ling Xuozi's death, the emperor would be obedient with just one look." Why bother so much to persuade you? I didn't have this opportunity before, but now I just killed this demon girl by taking advantage of the mob to make trouble. β
Seeing that the emperor was a little shaken, the queen gave Concubine Mei a look to read the book, and then quietly went out...... She walked straight to the imperial study, opened the holy decree and wrote the words to kill Leng Yue, then covered the jade seal, and snorted coldly: "Demon girl, see how you can still hide?" Today I want your head to fall to the ground. β
The queen surrounded Huiyue Palace with a holy decree and a large number of forbidden troops, and Leng Yue still sat in the courtyard with an unchanged face to enjoy the flowers.
"Hmph, demon girl, the emperor ordered to kill you in accordance with the will of the people, why don't you come and die soon?" The Empress held the decree in her hand high. "Come on, kill the demon concubine."
Leng Yue seemed to have expected this day, and said lightly: "I want to see the emperor." β
How could the queen let Leng Yue see the emperor, wouldn't she want to show her stuff when she saw the emperor? She said coldly: "The emperor doesn't want to see you, what are you waiting for, kill this demon girl." β
The queen gave an order, and the hesitant forbidden army did not dare to hesitate any longer, and stepped forward one after another with the weapons in their hands. Peach and Shui Ling also took weapons and stepped forward to fight with the forbidden army, Leng Yue got up, took off his coat, and revealed a strong suit. In her hand was a nin-year-old soft sword, which she had found while packing up her belongings.
Seeing Leng Yue smiling at the corner of her mouth, the queen walked towards her with a blade in her hand, and suddenly her legs and feet weakened with fright, and shouted, "Kill this demon girl." β
Leng Yue smiled charmingly and said, "What? Scared? If there is chaos today, it is time to kill you. Your death will no longer affect my plans, so today is not my death, but yours.
β
Leng Yue attacked the queen with a sword, but was stopped by one person. Leng Yue recognized that the person was covered with a black veil, neither male nor female, but his martial arts skills were extremely high, and the reappearance of the person who had not shown up for a long time really surprised her.
As soon as this person came out, he made a fierce move, attacking Leng Yue's body, Leng Yue was furious, his soft sword shook, and he stabbed him in the chest......
The man reacted quickly, sideways evaded, and struck Leng Yue in the chest with a palm, Leng Yue was knocked far away by the strong palm force, and after landing on the ground, she spurted out a mouthful of blood. Leng Yue stood up, as if she had heard the sound of her bones shattering.
Seeing that Leng Yue was injured, the queen narrowed her eyes and smiled: "Today is your death, don't want to escape." β
Seeing that she was no match for that person, Leng Yue frowned, and just as she was thinking about whether to recall Shui Ling and Peach to set off bombs, a loud cry came......
"Stop!" Fang Qingzhuo arrived in time to stop everyone.
The queen said coldly: "General Fang, are you bringing so many soldiers here to rebel?" β
Fang Qingzhuo clasped his fists and saluted the queen and said, "Back to the queen's mother, the minister is here to catch the assassin." β
"Hmph, where are the assassins here?" The queen was a little angry, Fang Qingzhuo brought a lot of soldiers, and if she really fought, she might not have the upper hand.
"That's him!" Fang Qingzhuo pointed at the masked man and said.
The queen was stunned and said, "He is from the palace, not an assassin." β
Fang Qingzhuo smiled faintly: "There was just a masked assassin who stabbed the emperor, and the direction of escape was here, now he is the only one here who is dressed strangely, who is not an assassin?" β
"Escort, catch the assassinβ" I don't know who shouted, and then a group of forbidden troops poured in, and it was Ling Tian who took the lead, and they all pointed their fingers at the strange man. Fang Qingzhuo made a gesture to Ling Tian, and then without waiting for Leng Yue to react, he hugged her, flew out of the battle circle with light skills, escaped from the palace, jumped on the horse that had been prepared long ago, and galloped all the way out of the city......
In case someone would come to continue the pursuit, the two had to find a cave in a secret place to take refuge.
The front of this cave happened to be stopped by first-class clear water, and it was not easy to find them, and they crossed the stream to the cave, and their clothes were soaked.
Entering the cave, Fang Qingzhuo put down Leng Yue, and then picked up some dead branches and lit a bonfire.
The firelight reflected Fang Qingzhuo's blue eyes, and Leng Yue seemed to have returned to the days when Fang Qingzhuo fled with her, although those days were very bitter, they were very happy and warm. But when time comes back, it's not that feeling anymore. Leng Yue knew that there was a wall between her and him, that was Nian Jiuling, although he was dead, but this wall was very strong, unless Fang Qingzhuo broke it with force, otherwise, she and him could only look at each other through the wall.
The two didn't speak, Leng Yue was a little frustrated, she thought that with her martial arts plus Shui Ling and Peach, she would definitely be able to block the queen's force, but she never expected that the strange person next to the queen would appear again. Didn't the queen deliberately let him come out during the days when she was in the cold palace? It's just to keep it for yourself to be surprised, isn't it? I was so careless.
Fang Qingzhuo knew that Leng Yue felt uncomfortable, and he didn't know what to say, so he wanted to reach out and pull her into his arms, but for some reason, he felt that she was so far away, no matter how long he stretched out his hand, he couldn't reach her.
Leng Yue breathed for a while, leaned against the stone and fell asleep, Fang Qingzhuo took off his roasted coat and put it on her, and suddenly Leng Yue reached out and grabbed his hand. His heart skipped a beat, and he was overjoyed......
