Chapter 145: The shadow of Chen Pingping and the child in the run
Yan Bingyun had one hand broken and hung weakly on his waist. He looked at the eldest princess, his eyes were a little gloomy, and the dull pain in his chest let him know that he had suffered internal injuries under the previous touch. The masters of the Junshan Society around the eldest princess are not something she can resist.
At this time, the Thirteen City Gates Division had been heavily surrounded by soldiers, and the spears were Xiaoyan. The eldest princess beside the eldest princess separated two of the Junshan Hui masters, and quickly approached Yan Bingyun, and the sharp blade in his hand revealed a dead silence flavor, enveloping his whole person.
"If His Majesty listened to An Zhi's words back then, it would be nice to sweep the Junshan Society clean......" When he was dying, Yan Bingyun couldn't help but have such a thought. He knew that he was not the opponent of these masters of the rivers and lakes, and he did not have the luxury of begging the Heavenly Temple to give him a chance to escape, but he just kept a calm face and felt something in his arms.
It is an arrow, since there is a change in the city gate, he must rush to Fan Xian in the palace before his death to inform Fan Xian in the palace of Zhang Deqing's fateful betrayal.
Yan Bingyun's index finger grabbed the ring of Ling Jian, looking at the two black sword shadows that were getting closer and closer, his pupils shrank, he exhaled a breath of turbidity, his lips were tightly pursed, and he pulled hard.
With a snort, the arrow ignited, but it did not rise into the air, because a small force hit his wrist, and a slightly hot liquid was sprinkled on the back of his hand, making his heart tremble, and the arrow flew out diagonally, and did not fly far, and then it reached the chest of a soldier of the City Gate Division, and exploded slightly with a pop.
Yan Bingyun didn't bow his head, and he also caught a glimpse of his hands covered with blood, flowing in a hurry.
............ When his index finger reached into the ring cord, a look of fear appeared in the eyes of the Junshan Guild master closest to him, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying, and then a thin line of blood appeared on the neck of this master.
The blood line quickly expanded in an instant, turning into a bloody gap, and the laryngeal bone of this master Bai Sensen, the unusually disgusting tracheoesophagus, and the blurred flesh and blood could be seen.
With a snap, the master rushed to Yan Bingyun, and with a snap, he knelt down, and was shocked by the impact, and his half-cut throat was weakly tied to his head. His head was centered on the vertebrae at the back of his neck, and he flipped limply to his back.
The pale dead face that turned upside down stared at the eldest princess and Zhang Deqing, who were protected by the masters and soldiers, with big eyes.
Blood spurted out of his throat like a fountain, striking Yan Bingyun's hand, smearing his entire hand into a bright red, and it was extremely coincidental that the arrow did not rise into the sky.
And the other Junshan Club master who swept over faced an even more miserable end. He didn't rush in front of Yan Bingyun at all, his eyes only caught a faint shadow reflected by the torch passing in front of him, and he felt a chill in his throat.
A delicate and dull sword stabbed from his right back, unusually steady and mercilessly piercing his neck at high speed, and stretched out from the other side.
With a snort, the tip of the sword probed and shrank like a serpent's letter, leaving his neck like lightning. And the true qi and life of this master's body also left his body with this sword that left his neck, his eyes stared like dead fish, and he tried to cover his neck with one hand, but he found that he could no longer control any muscle on his body.
He began to weaken his legs, began to have dark eyes, began to become incontinent, and the whole person fell down, rolling on the ground like a gourd, until he rolled over Yan Bingyun's frozen body, and only stopped when he touched the high threshold of the city gate and the palace.
The smell of blood and filth also came from his body.
............ A sword stretched out like a hell, in the lightning and flint, with extremely terrifying means to understand the two masters of the Junshan Society. No one could react to what was going on, even Yan Bingyun, who had been saved his life, couldn't react, and stood in place in shock.
Then he felt the lightness of his whole body, and the next moment, he was already being carried by a black shadow by the neck, flying over the city gate and the palace, and following the yฤซn shadow under the high city wall, towards the darkness in Kyoto.
The darkness before dawn grew thicker.
In the eyes of those who intended to besiege Yan Bingyun, what they saw was an even more terrifying scene, a black shadow seemed to appear in the crowd silently, killing the two masters lightly and unusually quickly, carrying Yan Bingyun, like carrying a broken sack, and easily escaped from the siege of so many people.
Because it was relaxed, it was terrifying, and there were three bangs, Yan Bingyun had been rescued by this person, and the officers and soldiers of the City Gate Division didn't even have time to raise the bows and arrows in their hands.
Who is this black shadow, and it actually has such terrifying strength!
The eldest princess, who was guarded at the back by the masters and soldiers, her face was slightly pale, she waved her hand to disperse the subordinates in front of her, and walked out of the crowd, looking at the direction in which the black shadow fled, I don't know what her mood is, I can only see her eyes getting brighter and brighter.
"Inspectorate...... It's scary indeed. โ
The mastermind of the Kyoto rebellion thought to himself, but there was not much frustration. Since it is the number one assassin in the world who is here today, in the name of being the most capable of killing, he has no way to stop him by using this ability to save Yan Bingyun.
However, it shouldn't affect anything.
Li Yunrui thought like this, squinting at the soldiers at the city gate. At this time, the sky is gradually getting brighter, and the sun below the horizon begins to release countless small silverfish, making them shine with their shy stomachs, and gradually drive away the thick dark night of Kyoto.
The torches were no longer so bright, and the faint morning light shone on everyone's bodies, reflecting shadows on the ground.
Of course, the โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ Supervision Yuan is terrible, and there are dragons and crouching tigers hidden in the eight major departments, and I don't know how many heroes and heroes are willing to cover their faces, give up their faces, and devote themselves to the great spy cause of Qingguo. This power is twisted in one place, and the power that can be exerted can be exerted, even the most powerful emperor of the Qing Kingdom, His Majesty, has always been a little secret.
Because nominally, the Supervision Yuan is a spy agency directly managed by the Emperor Qingguo, but everyone knows that the Supervision Yuan can attract so many good players to work and survive in Qingguo for more than 30 years, all because of the old cripple in a wheelchair.
Today, there are only more than 1,000 officials in Kyoto, but they are already so terrible that they broke into the Imperial Palace, suppressed the Criminal Department, forcibly opened the prison, subdued the Kyoto Prefecture, and turned the entire Kyoto upside down in one night.
Fan Xian's plan is good, and Yan Bingyun's execution is good, but to achieve such an effect, it still depends on the strong organization and iron-blooded obedience of the officials of the Supervision Yuan. And these unique characteristics of the Supervision Yuan are all Chen Pingping, an old cripple, and the first generation of the leaders of the Eight Divisions spent decades casting into the soul of the Supervision Yuan bit by bit.
Therefore, the most powerful person in the Supervision Yuan is not the black horse, not Fan Xian, or the number one assassin in the world, but Chen Pingping and what this person represents.
But what is wonderful is that the eldest princess of the crown prince planned the assassination of Dadong Mountain, and the eldest princess also knows the power of the Supervision Yuan, but it seems that the attention to the betting of the Supervision Yuan is still too little. At least in the eyes of the uneasy prince, if he wants to ascend the throne and doesn't control Chen Pingping first, who would dare to sit on that dragon chair?
Fortunately, Chen Pingping was poisoned and was isolated from Kyoto.
The prince thought that this was his aunt's handiwork, but no one knew that this matter had nothing to do with Li Yunrui.
From the very beginning, Li Yunrui didn't think about dealing with Chen Yuan outside Kyoto and the old man in the wheelchair, not because she didn't value Chen Pingping, nor because she thought that Chen Pingping was an old monster that could never be eliminated, but because she had a secret.
............ The secret is just one person's secret, and the rest of the people in the plan are not clear. After the news that Chen Pingping was poured by Dongyi's poison master medicine into Kyoto, everyone was shocked, thinking that this old cripple was pretending to be something, but when the news of the assassination of the Dadongshan Holy Driver also came, the Queen Mother ordered Chen Pingping to enter the palace immediately, but Chen Pingping still stayed in Chen Yuan...... Everyone is starting to guess something.
Could it be that Chen Pingping was really poisoned? So an old man who had dealt with Chen Pingping for decades began to be tempted and moved. This old man has always been secretly afraid of Chen Pingping, and if he doesn't kill him, he is absolutely uneasy, and the current situation is wonderful, the so-called taking advantage of his illness to take his life, not taking Chen Pingping's life at this time, the old man feels sorry for himself.
Therefore, the first order given by the old man Qin, who grew cabbage, after leaving Kyoto to regain control of the army and his son regaining the authority of the Kyoto garrison, was...... Slaughtered Chen Yuan.
............ Today, the Chen Garden has become a wasteland.
In Fan Xian's eyes, Chen Yuan, which was more luxurious and extravagant than the Ming family garden in Jiangnan, had become countless black and gray ruins at this time. Those gorgeous and elegant gardens have been burned to black soil, and those jฤซng-chic houses have become countless half-cut stone walls, and there is still green smoke rising everywhere, but they have lost the scorching temperature, and they look extremely desolate.
If Fan Xian saw this scene, he was afraid that he would die of heartache, and scolded those guys who didn't know how to cherish it. However, from ancient times to the present, the army is the one that does not need artistic aesthetics, so when an army of the Qin family attacked Chen Yuan with lightning speed, it was natural to set a fire.
The reason for this fire is not similar to the fire of the Eight-Nation Alliance, and the robbers of the Eight-Nation Alliance thought that there were too many things to move, so they simply burned them and did not leave them to the Chinese people. And the reason why the Qin family's army set fire...... It's because they didn't grab anything, they didn't catch anyone!
The trap organs outside Chen Yuan that once frightened Fan Xian still existed, and the Qin family's army died more than 300 people before they suddenly entered Chen Yuan. However, in Chen Yuan, they did not find a single living person.
They were greeted by an empty garden, where the rumored poisoned bedridden Dean Chen was not there, nor were his beautiful maids, nor were his servants. All the people seemed to have been evacuated a long time ago, and the evacuation was extremely clean, even the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the walls of Chen Yuan had been taken down.
Chen Pingping likes those paintings and calligraphy.
This army, which was controlled by the Qin family, was mainly composed of the Kyoto garrison, and the leader was a general of the second generation of the Qin family, who was a cousin of Qin Heng. He looked at the empty Chen Yuan angrily, thinking that he had led the army to attack, and so many people had died, and as a result, he only occupied an empty garden, and some couldn't help but vomit blood.
In a fit of rage, the Qin general set a fire.
In the raging flames, he ordered the horse to return to the Yuantai camp quickly, but he did not dare to lead the army back, because the old man Qin gave a death order, since he had moved against Chen Yuan, then he must kill Chen Pingping before he could return to the army.
Helpless, he had no choice but to wipe out the pride in his rรฌ and respectfully ask the man in black beside him for advice. This man in black was sent by the old man to help him, and on the way to the army, he once said that Chen Yuan must be empty at this time.
At that time, the Qin general still didn't believe it, but at this time, he had to believe it, and sighed in his heart, after all, he was a veteran in the Supervision Yuan, and he was much clearer about Chen Pingping's power and calculation.
Yan Ruohai, who was covered with his face, stood next to General Qin on horseback and said, "Since the dean is gone, then the general must be mentally prepared...... In a short period of time, you don't want to think about catching him. โ
General Qin was stunned.
Yan Ruohai glanced at him and said sarcastically: "Don't forget jรฌ, he is Chen Pingping." โ
After saying this, he pulled the horse's head and walked out of Chen Yuan, he couldn't bear to look at the raging fire in Chen Yuan behind him, thinking that this general who set fire to Chen Yuan would not know what shape he would be cut into by the dean in the future.
He is a member of the Qin family, and this secret seems to be known only to the Qin family, and the crown prince and the eldest princess are not clear. However, he is a member of the Supervision Yuan, and this secret is really only known to the Supervision Yuan, and of course the Qin family does not know.
............ Kyoto gradually became a capital of crisis, and various counties entered Kyoto, but Kyoto did not have a will. Fortunately, in this day and age, information exchange is inconvenient, and everyone is accustomed to the rhythm of slow beats, so even if the prefectures and prefectures on the outskirts of Kyoto feel a little strange, they are not panicked because of the crisis in Kyoto.
At least in front of me, the entire Qingguo should be peaceful as usual, except for Kyoto and Higashiyama Road.
The early morning in Weizhou is no different from the early morning in Kyoto, and the president of the Supervision Yuan, Chen Pingping, who should have dealt with the imperial throne in Kyoto, or who should have treated poison in Chen Yuan, raised his eyes to look at the light of heaven above the courtyard of the courtyard, frowned, and began to raise his chopsticks and eat gruel and buns.
In the past, in Chen Yuanzhong, the old people also liked to eat these two things.
When the queen mother's will reached Chen Yuan, the ancestor of the Qingguo spy immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare the carriage, pack their luggage, and then ...... But he didn't return to Beijing, but ...... very quickly Slipped.
Fan Xian and the eldest prince stood on the imperial city with sad faces and thought about running away, but they didn't expect that their closest elders were much more neat than them in this regard.
After the carriage came out of Chenyuan, it circled the countryside south of Kyoto. And the Qin family's army behind the convoy was still persistently looking for the whereabouts of this convoy, intending to kill it with all their might.
However, Chen Pingping was not in a hurry, the convoy did not speed up, and did not even deliberately hide her whereabouts, but just seduced the army and swirled around behind her ass.
The convoy made three circles in the south of Kyoto, and the army also circled three times, and the reason why it never encountered it was because of the strong intelligence system and concealment ability of the Inspectorate outside Beijing, of course, because the army had a very good guide and helper.
Yan Ruohai took the Qin family to chase and kill Chen Pingping, and he could know with his ass that as long as Chen Pingping was not happy, then they would never be able to chase him.
The convoy of refugees, like a tourist, finally stopped at a manor somewhere outside the city of Weizhou, the largest state in the south of Kyoto, because Chen Pingping estimated that the time was almost up.
Chen Pingping was drinking porridge, his teeth were still good, and he was not leaning against the wall. But the old men sitting next to him always felt that he was a little shameless when they looked at the dean's eyes.
It's like that in Kyoto, your two nephews are being born and dying, why can you bear to run away by yourself?
There were three people sitting around Chen Pingping's breakfast table, one was an old servant who had served him in Chen Yuan for decades, one was the former organizer of the seven places that Fan Xian had seen in the prison of the Supervision Yuan, the bald head, and the other was one of the wings of the Supervision Yuan on the same level as Wang Qinian, Zong Chai.
At the back of the manor, there was a faint sound of young concubines getting up and washing up and joking, and the women did not know that they were fleeing.
The faces of the three elders of the Supervision Yuan were not so good-looking, Zong Chai pursed his lips, moistened his lips that were thirsty from nervousness, and said, "The chasing soldiers are already close, Dean...... Let's make some plans. โ
"Soon they will transfer their troops back, and there is no hurry in this matter. Chen Pingping put down her chopsticks, wiped her mouth neatly, and said, "You go out and make arrangements." โ
"Yes. "Zong Chai and the bald head of the seven places took the order and left.
Only Chen Pingping and the old servant were left in the courtyard. At this moment, Chen Pingping suddenly coughed, coughing very uncomfortably, the old man's face became blood-red, and then turned pale again, and a trace of blood oozed from the corner of his lips.
The old servant cried and said, "Master, you have to call Master Fei back, otherwise what will happen to this poison?"
It turned out that Chen Pingping was really poisoned! He sat in a wheelchair and laughed self-deprecatingly, and said, "Poison doesn't kill people, it's just a little uncomfortable." โ
............ "Master...... There is some danger in Jingli, are you really not worried about Lord Xiao Fan?" the old servant glanced at Chen Pingping and asked cautiously.
On Chen Pingping's old face, the wrinkles suddenly became more, and after a while, he sighed and said, "How can I not worry? But even if he fails, he can still live, as long as he lives, everything will be done." โ
The old servant thought to himself, it was a matter of the battle for the throne, if Lord Xiao Fan was really defeated, how could he survive? And if the crown prince was really allowed to inherit the throne, he was afraid that his convoy would no longer be able to find any shelter in this vast land of Qingguo.
The old servant suddenly thought of something, and said with great joy: "Yes, there are also Fan Shangshu and King Jing who have not made a move. โ
These days, Chen Pingping often discusses the situation in Kyoto with those old guys under him, and the old servants have been listening, and he has a very clear understanding of the comparison of strength in Kyoto. If the Thirteen City Gate Divisions were really lost, and the armies of the Ye and Qin families entered Beijing, where would the Supervision Yuan resist? Unless Fan Jian and King Jing had the power to turn the sky upside down, Dean Chen would dare to sit in a wheelchair and not worry about Fan Xian.
"King Jing, like Old Qintou, will only lose his temper with the land. Chen Pingping sneered and said: "Fan Jian is better in forbearance in this life, but he is also defeated in forbearance, where does he have enough power to change the situation? โ
After saying this, Chen Pingping fell silent, he knew where Fan Jian's most powerful power was, but the problem was that His Majesty had taken away none of those people on this trip to worship the sky, and he didn't know if any of those people would survive.
A few white pigeons flew into the courtyard in the direction of the morning light, and the old servant stepped forward to catch one and held it in front of Chen Pingping.
Chen Pingping untied the thin tube on the pigeon's feet, looked at the words on it, her brows gradually furrowed, and after a while, she summoned the subordinates of the Supervision Yuan, and ordered in a deep voice: "According to the previous order, all the staff will take action, continue to block any news on Dongshan Road, the team of the imperial court to receive the spirit is about to arrive." โ
"Yes. โ
............ After a long time, Chen Pingping woke up from a state of distraction, and it was not until now that the most powerful strategist in Qingguo finally felt a trace of powerlessness, perhaps the power of poison, or the power of old age, which made him feel a trace of exhaustion and ...... A faint disappointment.
"Fan Xian won't die so easily. I don't know whether to comfort the old servant or to comfort myself, Chen Pingping said calmly: "At least I led an army of 6,000 for this kid, and his pressure will be much less." โ
"You know, it's not easy to get a person to die. โ
Chen Pingping pushed the wheelchair into the backyard, and the old servant hurriedly pushed it. When walking past a flower bed, looking at the small white flowers trembling in the early autumn on the altar, Chen Pingping's face remained unchanged, but she stopped and watched for a long time, but slowly leaned down, picked one, and carefully pinned it to her ear.
The old servant smiled and pushed him into a wing room in the backyard.
When he entered the wing, Chen Pingping suddenly said to him: "If Fan Xian knew that he was a father, he would definitely learn to cherish his life more." โ
The light in the wing room is not too bright, but it can be clearly seen that a woman in her twenties is looking at the baby in her arms with a look of pity on her face...... Chen Pingping pushed the wheelchair forward, took the newborn baby from her with a loving face, looked at the blush on the baby's face and closed eyes, flicked the tongue in her lips, cooed twice, and teased: "The little girl is so good, your father must like it very much when he sees it." โ
Sisi looked at this scene with a sweet smile, and suddenly saw the little white flower on Chen Pingping's forehead, and asked curiously, "Lord Dean, how do you arrange a flower?"
"The last time I hugged this child, she cried, it seems that I am too ugly, and now I don't have flowers...... Look, she really didn't cry anymore. โ
The wrinkles on Chen Pingping's face turned into chrysanthemums, and that kind of love can't be fake, I'm afraid that he really likes the little girl in his arms as his granddaughter.
Sisi, who had just given birth, was not very good, looked at Chen Pingping and suddenly said sadly: "It's just ...... I don't know when the young master will come back. โ
When she was picked up by Chen Pingping, Sisi was also taken aback, Wan'er and Fan's acquaintances were not around during the birth, and some were just the midwives arranged by Chen Pingping, and the girl's family was really tortured.
However, she knew that Dean Chen must have no malicious intentions, but she didn't understand why she had to give birth outside the house, and she couldn't help but think of the secrets of some big families, and her mood was always a little low.
In a few days, Fan Xian will be back. Chen Pingping smiled and comforted: "The most important thing for a pregnant woman is to be in a good mood, so he asked me to take you out for a walk." โ
This reason is obviously a bit far-fetched, but Sisi's brain is obviously not very good after giving birth to a child, so he actually believes it.
"You rest first. Chen Pingping was so happy that she refused to let go of the little baby girl for a moment, and said to Sisi: "I'll take the child out for a walk." โ
Sisi said: "You can't blow the wind. โ
Chen Pingping nodded obediently, in front of a mother, robbing other people's children to play, always be well-behaved.
............ Chen Pingping teased the baby girl all the way to another room, and said to the person in the room, "Show you, Fan Xian's daughter." โ
The man was tied up to death, his face was uneasy and sad, and when he heard this, he suddenly became happy, and said, "Dean, has the young lady taken a name?"
He suddenly saw the little white flower beside Chen Pingping's hair, and said with an idea: "It's called Fan Xiaohua, he must like it." โ
The one who has a great reputation is naturally Fan Xian's confidant Wang Qinian, and I don't know how this person escaped from Dadong Mountain, and I don't know why he was tied up in the room by Chen Pingping!
Chen Pingping glared at him and said, "What bullshit." โ
Wang Qinian obviously lost a lot of weight, it seems that after escaping from Dadong Mountain, I don't know how much torture he endured on the road, he looked at the little baby girl in the dean's arms, and was happy, he suddenly thought of his family daughter in Beijing, and thought of Fan Xian who was in the center of the storm, somehow, his nose was sour, and he said: "I don't know if adults can see their daughters." โ
He said with a sad face: "I can't figure out what this is. โ
Chen Pingping looked calm and said, "I don't know what will happen in Kyoto, but I know that there will be ...... in Kyoto What happens. โ
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ Fan Xian stood on the imperial city wall, looking at the rising sun in the east, the large red sky, but his brows gradually wrinkled, and he sighed. Until this time, the whereabouts of Wan'er and Dabao have not been found, but fortunately, there is an echo from the Jingwang Mansion, and my father and Aunt Liu are safe and are coming in the direction of the palace.
Counting on the fingers, Sisi's production period has also arrived, I don't know if the girl who disappeared mysteriously is good now, is the child a boy or a girl?
Among all his relatives, the least worried about him was Sisi who was in labor, because since the house acquiesced in this matter, it could not be someone else who took Sisi away, it must be the old cripple who was lonely to death in Chen Yuan.
What he was worried about at this time was Yan Bingyun. Yan Bingyun entered the City Gate Division, and there has been no news back, and the person responsible for reporting the news from the Supervision Yuan has not been found. This qiฤ is a sign that something is wrong. Fan Xian notified the eldest prince to start making arrangements, but he was a little puzzled why Yan Bingyun didn't issue an order.
The morning sun jumped out of the horizon, and Fan Xian's heart suddenly moved, as if he felt that something beautiful was happening in the world.
Of course, these good things don't exist in Kyoto. Kyoto is in danger, so Fan Xian must comfort himself - in the most dangerous time, someone will definitely ride the colorful clouds of five sรจ to save him.
