Chapter 256: There are many disasters in the face, but there is no more than a thin life
Baoyue Tower is located on the bank of the Wadan Fushui River in the Beijing Division of Beitu, with willows and willows, supplemented by the sound of the piano, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a fairyland on earth.
It's just that at this time, the willow trees are still bare, but it's also excellent to listen to a song and enjoy the scenery.
On the fourth floor of Baoyue Building, it belongs to the lotus heart Oiran, and at this time, the sound of the bird and bird piano came out from the fourth floor, and it can be around the beam for three days.
At the end of the song, the young man wearing a mink hat on the side came back to his senses for a long time, and couldn't help but praise:
"Every time Mr. Sitong plays the seven strings, there is a momentum that does not lose the strings of thousands of armies."
The blind pianist smiled politely, and the woman on the side who looked like a country spoke:
"The prince only thought about giving Mr. Sitong a good piano, so he didn't think about sending something to the slave's family?"
The woman's appearance is stunning, with a pair of rare Danfeng eyes, a white and green Luo skirt with a pink and flawless face, and her gestures show a dusty temperament, even people who come to Baoyue Tower for the first time can immediately guess her identity - Lotus Heart.
Facing this woman who disturbed the minds of half of Wadan's literary scholars, the little prince Battle smiled dumbly:
"Didn't you just give Miss Lotus Heart a pair of lotus silk shoes a few days ago, and you forgot it so quickly?"
"You also said it was a few days ago." The woman smiled at the corner of her mouth, and her eyes wandered.
Seeing this, Battle smiled and said: "Miss Lianxin is really good at Lanxin, nothing can escape your eyes, come on!" ”
With the order of the powerful man in Northern Turkistan, a servant immediately brought a wooden box, the man smiled at the woman, opened the wooden box, and showed it in front of the woman, and in the box was a lotus flower.
The woman couldn't help but look surprised, knowing that even the royal family would not be able to find a delicate lotus flower at this time.
Just when the woman was stunned, the man opposite had already taken out the small lotus flower in the box and gently inserted it on the woman's head.
Maybe because the woman's name is Lotus Heart, she loves lotus, or she lives in the land of fireworks, so she yearns for this mud without staining.
……
Battle looked left and right, indescribably satisfied, and couldn't help but admire:
The ruffle skirt was cut in one color, and the hibiscus opened to both sides of the face.
Lianxin girl, deserves the four words of the country and the city. ”
The woman who should have been happy to get the lotus flower suddenly became sad at this moment, she touched the lotus flower that was diagonally inserted in the bun, Danfeng's eyes lowered and said:
"Although the lotus flower is good, once it is picked, it will soon wither."
When the man heard this, he immediately straightened up; "No, the lotus girl will always be the most beautiful in Xiao Wang's heart."
After speaking, he took the woman's hands and looked at her eyes full of indescribable tenderness.
The blind pianist, who was already indecent and indecent, shook his head and pointed to the sound of the piano.
……
After saying a lot of heart-warming words, Battle finally made the oiran happy, and seeing that the sky was dark, although he was reluctant, the palace was so forbidden that even he, the prince, did not dare to touch it easily, so he had to reluctantly leave.
After he walked away, the blind pianist named Sitong said with a smile on the corner of his mouth:
"This little prince is very good at pleasing girls."
The woman, who was still looking sad, had regained her calm face at this moment, and said:
"He doesn't annoy me like the laity."
The blind luthier kept a graceful smile that had remained unchanged for ten thousand years, and continued:
"This little prince knows that it is more useful to praise me than to praise you, and he knows that giving me a gift will win your heart more than giving you a gift.
In terms of grasping people's minds, he deserves the title of this prince. ”
"So what, not a dead man? Do I still need to encourage him to intercept Shariyan? ”
The woman seemed reluctant to bother with Battle's topic, and asked with a frown.
The man shook his head, "No need, Shariyang has joined the Dynasty Army and is under the command of General Wu Ying. ”
The woman wondered: "I have always been puzzled by something, why does the gentleman keep an eye on a small guard?" ”
The man "looked" out of the window and said softly:
"Mr. said that Sha Liyang is a handsome talent, and I am afraid that even he doesn't know this, so he spares no effort to win over the other party.
It's just that I don't want the dynasty to have a master of knowing people and skills, so I intercepted him first, but this time, it was Mr. who made a mistake. ”
"So what's next?"
"Straight to the final step."
After the man finished speaking, he closed his eyes, and his fingers gently stroked the left side of the piano body, on which there were two ancient seal characters, which outsiders may not recognize, but the blind man who had dealt with the piano all his life knew that it was "Yellow Bird".
"The flight of the yellow bird is a thousand miles in one fell swoop."
The man muttered softly.
The woman knew what he was going to do, so she didn't reply, but looked out the window, and when she looked back, she was the only one left in the room.
……
In the Wan'an Palace, the prince Battle, who had just returned to the palace, was walking on a remote path quickly, which was extremely remote in the palace, and there were very few people who were qualified to set foot here, which also led to a lot of weeds growing on the path.
When he was a child, Battle was particularly afraid of coming here, firstly because it was sparsely populated and haunted in the middle of the night, and secondly, there was a character who lived here that even he feared.
At the end of the trail, Battle straightened his clothes and knocked softly on the door.
"Come in."
A woman's voice could be heard from inside the room.
Battle pushed the door in, and after entering, he didn't forget to turn around and close the door, and then walked straight to the female chess player, put his hands on his forehead, and knelt directly on the ground.
"Nephew, aunt."
The first female national player in Beitu, known as "Mr. Yishi", in front of her is actually Batel's aunt, that is, the sister of the Great Khan Agudam, the eldest princess Dayan Dolan.
Battle was extremely respectful and almost prostrate on the ground.
He has an arrogant personality, and he has never been afraid of his Great Khan father, nor is he afraid of Yao Qingyi, who is both the head of the strategists and his teacher. But for this aunt, she was extremely in awe, and she didn't dare to be disobedient at all.
The room fell silent for a while, and only the sound of the chessboard could be heard, and after a long time, the woman behind the eucalyptus spoke leisurely:
"It's time to do it."
"Yes."
Battle hurriedly replied, but then hesitated, looking like he wanted to say something.
"How can it be a big thing if the love of children is long?"
The woman whose noble identity is little known looked down at the chess game from beginning to end, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she said her nephew's thoughts.
"Auntie taught me a lesson."
The prince, who was extremely domineering outside, still bowed his head respectfully.
The woman glanced up at the other for the first time, and spoke again:
"Forget it, let Yao Qingyi go over there in Baoyuelou, you are in charge of the pianist."
"Aunt Xie!"
Battle bowed respectfully and quietly withdrew.
……
It was night, and a dark shadow walked on the crest of the Great Cottage of Wadan.
Its movements were extremely light, jumping up and down without making a sound, and even the soldiers patrolling not far away did not notice anything abnormal.
After bypassing the layers of defense, the black shadow finally stopped at the root of the palace wall, and after observing left and right to make sure that there was no one around, he climbed up the palace wall, and climbed over the towering city wall in a few breaths.
But as soon as his front foot landed, there was a fire all around, and countless guards surrounded him from all directions, obviously prepared.
The man in black knew that he had fallen into a trap, but he did not panic, but instead "looked" ahead with a calm face.
A young man walked out of the crowd at this time, clapped his hands and said: "Xiao Wang only knows that Mr. Sitong is excellent at the piano, but he doesn't think that he is so good." ”
The man in black narrowed his eyes when he heard this, the world only knew that he was blind, but they didn't know that his eyes were better than ordinary people at night.
"The little prince is a good city, it's Yan who underestimated you." The pianist named Sitong said in a deep voice.
"Xiao Wang is not talented, in terms of the city government, how can he compare to Mr. Yan Li, who is the first assassin?" Battle directly revealed the identity of the other party.
The blind pianist, whose original name was Yan Li, closed his eyes when he heard this, and said with a smile:
"Since the prince knows the identity of Zaixia, then do you think that with these people, he has dealt with me?"
"It's okay to deal with it, you won't know until you try it."
Battle made a gesture with a cold look in his eyes, and when the guards around him saw this, they immediately surrounded him.
The lion fights the rabbit, and also uses all his strength, for this assassin who is famous in both Donghan and Jianghu, Battle does not dare to make a big deal at all.
The fire was bright all around, and the blind luthier still had his eyes closed, but there was an extra dagger with a strange shape in his hand, obviously ready to fight.
……
A quarter of an hour later, on the south wall of Wan'an Palace, corpses were strewn all over the ground, and the assassin Yan Li was covered in blood, but not a drop was his own.
The torches had been extinguished, and the blind assassin reopened his eyes, a glint flashing in them.
"If the prince is just such a means, not only will he not be able to keep Yan, but I am afraid that even the prince and your life will not be able to be kept."
After Yan Li finished speaking, he flashed up, and the dagger in his hand stabbed out directly, and the target was directly taken by the opponent's throat.
There was a hint of panic in Battle's increasingly cold gaze, and he took a step back and spoke in a deep voice:
"Where is Qingwei?"
As soon as the words fell, ten Tsing Yi swordsmen appeared around, and one of them stood directly in front of him, picking up the dagger stabbed from the opposite side with a sword.
Battle looked at the group of dead soldiers in green shirts and swords in front of him, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.
Qingwei is an intelligence department led by Yao Qingyi and set up according to the twelve dark guards of the dynasty, although it has only been established for a few years, it has made a lot of contributions, such as the true identity of the blind assassin in front of him, which was discovered by Qingwei.
Facing the ten Qingwei with swords in their hands, although Yan Li's face rarely showed a touch of solemnity, he still said:
"The sword immortal is not out, the prince's head Yan is going to be decided."
……
At the same time, on the fourth floor of Baoyue Building, a woman with a beautiful face was sitting in the dark, her eyebrows frowning slightly, and worry flashed in her eyes from time to time.
At this moment, neat footsteps suddenly sounded on the street outside the house, and immediately after, a team of people surrounded Baoyue Tower.
An elegant man in Tsing Yi with two servants slowly walked up to the fourth floor, and finally stopped outside the room where the woman was, gently pushed open the door, and the firelight instantly illuminated this elegantly dressed room.
The elegant man spoke calmly:
"Miss Lianxin, I'm afraid I can't wait for the person you are waiting for."
The woman turned her head, looked at the visitor with a cold face, and did not reply.
The man, a lord with an idle mouth, looked at the woman in the light of the fire, and continued:
"Miss Lotus Heart's appearance is indeed unparalleled in the world, and that kid from Battle does have some vision." Speaking of this, the man shook his head again, "It's a pity. ”
……
The battle in the Wan'an Palace was nearing its end, and Yan Li targeted Battle several times, making this prince who did not match the age of the city government like a man.
Most recently, the opponent's dagger was less than two fingers from his throat. If it weren't for Qingwei's hard work, I'm afraid that he would really die at the hands of this No. 1 assassin in Donghan.
Yan Li made many unsuccessful attempts, but he also solved several Qingwei, the two sides were originally evenly matched, if it weren't for the protection of the prince, Qingwei would not have been so badly damaged, but Yan Li himself was not much better, and one arm could not be lifted at this time.
Taking advantage of the break, Battle squinted at the other party, Yan Li's skills did exceed his expectations, especially the dagger in the opponent's hand, which should be the top non-fish on the weapon list, just in the battle just now, the other party said a sentence "Zi Fei fish, the joy of knowing fish." ”
And after he said this, Qingwei died three people.
"Mr. Sitong has such strength, why don't you be loyal to me Beitu, Xiao Wang assures you, as long as Mr. nods, glory and wealth are at your fingertips.
There is also a lotus heart girl, Xiao Wang can also ignore the past suspicions. ”
Assassin Yan Li smiled when he heard this, and said:
"Yan doesn't like to owe favors, the famous piano Huanghu, I didn't take it away in Baoyue Building, or the willow piano is suitable for the next."
After Yan Li finished speaking, he jumped over the wall without warning and fled quickly.
On the main road outside Baoyue Building, the armor is blocked layer by layer, a man and a woman are walking in the middle of the team, and they are walking in the direction of the palace at this moment, the man is wearing a green coat, and the woman is holding a shabby willow qin in her arms.
At this moment, there was a sudden scream from all around, and a black shadow holding a dagger passed through the layers of armor, as if passing through a no-man's land.
After the heavy iron armor touched the strangely shaped dagger, it was like tofu, and it was directly stabbed through.
The black shadow hurried forward, not hesitating to exchange injuries for kills, and soon came to the center of the group.
"Come with me!"
This Donghan man grabbed the Donghan woman whose original name was Xiahou Lianxin.
……
Three days later.
The little monk Huiming, who had been walking for more than a month, finally appeared in front of the Bizhen Temple in Xichi Kyoto, at this time, the Jingshi was already precarious because of the invasion of war, and both the dignitaries and the common people fled from this land of right and wrong in advance.
The door of the temple was wide open, not because the monks inside had fled, but because they were welcoming the reincarnated living Buddha who had come from afar.
The little monk, dressed in a brocade robe and holding a pure white prayer bead, stepped step by step into this temple, which was regarded as a sacred place by the monks of Xichi.
On both sides of the main road stood monks, all of whom lowered their heads and chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice.
The little monk turned his head to look to the east and muttered:
"It would be nice if you could see that."
……
Donghan Palace, on the ninth floor of the Zique Pavilion, a white-clothed scholar sat behind a eucalyptus, and a black shadow knelt opposite.
The middle-aged white-clothed scholar was silent for a long time, and finally spoke:
"Lianxin didn't come back alive?"
The black shadow's body trembled, and he said in a deep voice:
"That stupid girl, in order not to bother me, hit the non-fish all of a sudden."
……
In the Great Inner Palace, in the Heart Cultivation Palace, Emperor Xian'en, who had been struggling for a long time, could no longer support it and spit out the last mouthful of blood.
In the light of day, his last sentence was not left to the crown prince Qianwen, nor to the queen who had raised her eyebrows for nearly 20 years, but to the authority of the eighth prince of the current dynasty, and then swallowed his breath.
The palace maids, eunuchs, concubines, and ministers knelt down, sobbing one after another.
In October of the 39th year of the dynasty, Emperor Xian'en, who reigned for only more than a year, died, and was called Xianzong, and three days later, the crown prince Wang Qianwen succeeded to the throne, and the emperor was filial piety.
In November of the same year, the vassal king Wang Zhide, who was in Yingtianfu, announced the uprising under the banner of the Qing monarch's side, and led a team of people to the north, and in just seven days, several county capitals were taken down.
At the same time, legends about Zhao Zhiyi began to spread on the rivers and lakes.
A living Buddha in a large temple in the Western Regions went out of the temple and traveled all the way to the east, where he passed step by step.
