Chapter 222: Nan Ke's Dream
readx;
The two walked silently between the bushes, today's arrangement was originally hunting, and the clothes prepared by King Yi for Manthorn were very thick, but walking in the woods in the depths of winter, he could still feel the cold wind wandering around, and Manthorn pulled the cloak and pulled it, and he could still feel the cold wind staggering in.

Is it necessary to be so cold this winter? I want to warm the baby...... Not only to warm the baby, but also to turn on the air conditioning and floor heating at home to be the most comfortable.
Mangji, who was pulling her cloak, suddenly felt a weight on her body, and then she saw that her red brocade cloak was covered with a layer of purple begonia color, which was Yan Jinchu's big thorn.
Mangjiao raised her head suddenly, her eyes were facing Yan Jinchu, who turned back to give her a cloak, she panicked and lowered her head, but her eyes fell on Yan Jinchu's chest, the moon-white brocade robe had already been stained with blood, and as time passed, those blood stains had gradually changed from bright red to dull brown.
Can't you be cold?" Manthorn wanted to ask, but found that something seemed to be blocked in his throat, and he couldn't speak.
Mangji, who has been optimistic until now, suddenly felt sad, she tried to restrain herself, as if as soon as she relaxed those tears that she didn't know how long she could endure would fall, she lowered her head vigorously, not wanting Yan Jinchu to see her expression at the moment.
In such a winter, the breathing was extremely humid and warm, and Mangthorn could clearly feel that the top of his head was Yan Jinchu's breathing.
The two of them stood in place like this, and after a moment Yan Jinchu turned around, but grabbed Mangthorn's hand with one hand, Mangthorn's hand trembled slightly involuntarily, but Yan Jinchu held her hand tighter.
"You're walking so slowly, do you want me, a seriously injured man, to carry you?"
The pace of progress took another step, and Yan Jinchu took Mangthorn's hand and walked in front of Mangthorn's side. Mangjian watched Yan Jinchu holding her hand for a long time...... Long...... She looked up and smiled, "Come on." In case your wound is ruptured again, how troublesome. β
This kind of action is so familiar, Mangjian remembers that when she was a child, she always silently followed her parents when she went out, only when the crowd was rushing or crossing the street, she would pull the corners of her parents' clothes, such actions did not know when it became a habit, even if she grew up, she did not feel dangerous or crossed the road, she was always used to pulling the corners of the clothes of the people around her.
After knowing Lin Feng, I still remember that the two of them went out to play together before they started to fall in love, and when crossing the street, Mangjian stretched out his hand out of habit to pull the corner of Lin Feng's clothes, but the moment she stretched out her hand, she remembered that Lin Feng who had known her for a short time was beside her, and the two were not very familiar, her hand froze at the position where she had not yet touched the corner of Lin Feng's clothes, but suddenly, Lin Feng's outstretched hand suddenly held her.
She will never forget the temperature of Lin Feng holding her hand that day, and she will never forget the warm smile that Lin Feng gave her when he looked back.
She has been used to grabbing people's clothes corners when she has no sense of security since she was a child, and she laughs again and again to explain to others that this is a habit she has developed since childhood, and her friends know that she has such a habit, but she has never given her a response, just used to her scratching clothes.
Lin Feng was the first person to respond to her, and that day, she knew that it was much more reassuring to be warmly held in the palm of her hand than to grab the corner of her clothes.
Maybe he was moved by Lin Feng at that moment, and it seemed that the two would be together in the end, and it seemed that it was natural for them to be together. But I don't know when it started, when she reached out again, Lin Feng didn't have the initial response, but said with a smile: "Stupid, what a strange habit, such an adult still likes to grab people's clothes, like a child." β
She just smiled, she thought that Lin Feng just knew her habits since she was a child from others, and Lin Feng just wanted to follow her habits.
But in fact, the original habit has long been replaced by another expectation, and the original habit will also bring loneliness, and she is still more accustomed to someone holding her hand than the corner of her clothes.
And now, Yan Jinchu is holding her hand.
It turned out that in addition to Lin Feng, Yan Jinchu's palms were also warm.
Yan Jinchu didn't know how complicated Mangthorn's mood was, he could just clearly feel that the woman in his hand couldn't help trembling slightly, and a question that was still hovering in his heart blurted out hesitantly, "I haven't seen you for two months, I am so amazed that I can't recognize your dress today, why is this happening?"
Mangthorn lowered his head, avoiding the heavy and light, "I was tossed by a few handmaidens this morning, so I ......"
Yan Jinchu interrupted her, "Mangji, you know that what I need to know is not this. β
Mangthorn lowered his head and said perfunctorily: "It's a bit complicated to say, why don't we wait for us to leave this place where chickens don't lay eggs and birds don't, find a teahouse, bake a warm stove, and make a pot of good tea, I'll describe the specific process in detail one by one, okay?"
Yan Jinchu smiled slightly, "Okay." β
At this moment, Mangthorn didn't raise her head, but she could feel a spring breeze blowing into her heart, Yan Jinchu must have heard that she was so happy with a perfunctory promise, why could he smile and say yes.
There was silence between the two again, and suddenly Yan Jinchu said: "As soon as I received my father's will for me to come to Youheng, I thought about giving you a letter, but for various reasons, I didn't send someone to send the letter......
Was he explaining?Manthorn let out a faint "um", "If...... King Yi and Youheng Han Xiang are indeed old acquaintances, but he has really never had a rebellious heart, will you still kill him?"
"It was never me who wanted his life, but our father. Yan Jinchu didn't look back, his voice was low, "Mangji, do you think Emperor Qi Sheng can tolerate the existence of a son like this? In his heart, he never thought about which son he wanted to give him a heavy responsibility, all he thought about was how to let himself stay in that position for a long time. Even if King Yi lives, what kind of life will he face in the future?"
Manthorn continued to lower his head, "It's better to die than to live." β
"Thorn, you're wrong. Since we were born as superior princes, there is no concept of living in our hearts. If you want to survive in secret, it is better to die. β
"Really?" Mangjian smiled for no reason, maybe this is not what all princes think, it's just Yan Jinchu's thoughts.
"Be careful. Suddenly, Yan Jinchu pulled the thorn and flashed to the right where they were moving forward, and two arrows passed by them.
Mang Thorn thought to himself that he had just silently thought that they were running for their lives, or were they shopping? If they were fleeing for their lives, would the rhythm of the two be too leisurely. Sure enough, now the pursuers have caught up.
An encirclement quickly surrounded Mangjian and Yan Jinchu in the middle, and one of them stood in front of everyone, holding his head high, his eyes shining with pride, "I didn't expect that King Liwang was so seriously injured but still has a dexterous posture, but now you have no way out." β
Yan Jinchu moved lightly to block the thorns behind him, and smiled faintly, "General Liuβit's you." β
Yan Jinchu's tone was very strange, which made people feel that such a thing happened and such a person caught him off guard, but Mangji felt that it was more like he was expecting.
General Liu - Liu Yeqing is the deputy general who came to Youheng this time, he has made great achievements in the Qi Sheng army, and Emperor Qi Sheng, including everyone, has always felt that Liu Yeqing is an upright person and has not joined any of the prince's partisan disputes, so this inevitable action will send him to assist the king, and it is also to give him the opportunity to make great contributions again.
Liu Yeqing also smiled, his eyes flashing with smugness, "No matter how shocking His Royal Highness is to be a mortal after all, there are still many things you don't know, but you don't need to know anymore, because dead people can't solve any mysteries." β
Yan Jinchu said: "This king really doesn't understand, what is General Liu for? What benefits did the third brother give to General Liu, you must know that it is not a trivial matter to assassinate this king, if this king dies in Youheng, as the deputy general of this operation, General Liu will not be able to get rid of it." β
"His Royal Highness, his subordinates have always been the king's people, but no one knows. Liu Yeqing laughed even more arrogantly, while already ordering the others around him to approach Yan Jinchu, "I have already said before that dead people don't need to solve any mysteries. Your Highness, you don't have to resist anymore, we have followed you for a long time, you and your guards have long since separated, and you only have this weak woman by your side. β
Liu Yeqing's gaze skimmed towards Mangjian, Liwang protected her behind him, he never saw Mangjian's appearance clearly, he smiled disdainfully, "His Royal Highness Liwang really lives up to the name of romance, in any case, you must take a woman, and your subordinates are willing to fulfill Your Highness at the last moment, and let this woman accompany you on the Huangquan Road." β
The people who surrounded Mangjian and Yan Jinchu all drew their weapons and slowly approached them.
Mangjian looked at the approaching people around her, a trace of despair appeared in her heart, and her gaze fell on the red-dyed moon-white brocade robe on Yan Jinchu's body......
This moment is certainly not suitable for being tough and sudden, so I have to use my brain.
"General Liu, right? Mangthorn crossed Yan Jinchu, who was protecting her, with a calm expression and an indifferent expression, "I just heard you say that there is only one weak woman by the king's side?" Mangthorn then stranded his hair, and Sen Ran's gaze swept towards Liu Yeqing, "I heard you right, right?"
Liu Yeqing had already turned his gaze away, but now he turned his head to look at Mangthorn in some surprise, and now he finally saw Mangthorn's face clearly, and suddenly felt that this woman's face seemed to be a little familiar.
"General Liu, I think we should have met in Shengjing. Mangjian raised his head and looked at Liu Yeqing proudly.
Liu Ye looked at Mangjian carefully, and the others were also stunned on the spot because of this sudden situation, forgetting that they originally planned to rush up and take the lives of the two of them.
"Are you ......" Liu Yeqing only felt that Mangthorn was indeed good-looking, but for a while he really couldn't remember whether Mangthorn was, although he had seen Manthorn at the dust-washing banquet in Shengjing, although he had made countless merits at the banquet there, it was still far from Mangthorn's seat, and Mangthorn's dress today was obviously different from that day.
Liu Yeqing thought about it carefully, what is the role of a little woman who can not change her face in the face of death, and even be so indifferent and so generous? I really haven't heard of a woman entering the back mountain, this woman suddenly appeared.
Mangthorn's heart was beating fast as if he was about to jump out, but he still had a faint smile on his face, "It seems that General Liu has a bad memory." I can remind General Liu that my name is - Wen Ren Mangthorn. β
Liu Yeqing's face changed, "Divine Palace Master!"
Not only Liu Yeqing, but even the others were stunned, and then began to whisper, although they are all people in the court, but even Emperor Qi Sheng wants to win over the Martial Arts Supreme Shenyu Palace, who doesn't know who doesn't know?
"It seems that the little girl's name is also quite famous. Mangji said and took a few steps forward, looking even more unruly, when he walked forward, Yan Jinchu frowned, as if he was holding her, but she gently pushed her away, even if she was very nervous, she would never let people see it.
Yan Jinchu was seriously injured, and she was powerless, whether she could be put to death and live to see if she could win this psychological war.
"General Liu must know that His Majesty also has a heart for the Shenyu Palace, and to put it arrogantly, even if your master, King Qi, comes here, he may not dare to offend me. What's more, why do you think that as the palace master of the Shenyu Palace, why am I here?" said that, Mangthorn also looked around with a fluttering look in his eyes.
Such a look seems to others to be a hint that those who hide in the shadows should be at ease for a while.
Liu Yeqing and his subordinates became nervous, the masters in the Shenyu Palace were like clouds, and now the master of the Shenyu Palace appeared in Lanfu Garden unconsciously, how many people she brought, how many dark guards and shadow guards were with her were uncertain factors, how could something that was originally intended to be achieved go wrong.
"Shenhui Palace sneaked into Youheng this time, and he has his own major affairs to do, and the palace master has no choice but to want to form a bond with Qi Shengren, and the relationship between the king and the palace master has always been very good, and the palace master will not let him have an accident around the palace master. The scandal between her and Liwang has long been a secret known to the entire Qi Sheng, and now she shows an ambiguous smile, which makes others even more convinced.
Liu Yeqing's face became more and more ugly, and everyone knew that the palace master of Shenyu had a personal affair with the king. He looked around vigilantly, he was sure that there were indeed many secret guards of the Shenyu Palace around, after all, it was really unusual for the Lord of the Shenyu Palace to appear here, and it was not a problem for him to bring people to deal with a seriously injured Liwang, but if there were really many masters of the Shenyu Palace around......
It is said that the masters of the Shenyu Palace can pick an army alone, and now he is likely to not only be unable to kill the king, but also lose his own life. In this assassination of Liwang, he was also worried that as long as something happened to Liwang, he would be held responsible as a deputy general.
King Yu coerced and enticed, guaranteed that nothing would happen to him, and promised to promote him to the commander of the Shengjing infantry army, and from then on he was in charge of the Shengjing army. This is too tempting for him, maybe the official position has not been greatly improved, but from now on there is no need to fight outside, and when the king of the king is acting in his act, he is in charge of the military power of Shengjing is his great hero, if the king of the king ascends the throne, his position of 'generalissimo of the world's soldiers and horses' will be won.
Everything in the future is so beautiful, but now the appearance of the Lord of the Divine Palace is really unexpected, if his life is permanent, everything is not in vain. But his purpose has already been revealed, and if he lets go of the king, he will not have good fruit to eat.
Now it's a real dilemma.
Suddenly, Liu Yeqing had a flash of inspiration, thinking that his own people were able to disperse Liwang's subordinates and seriously injured Liwang because King Yi suddenly shot at Liwang, that is to say, in the back mountain now, it is not only him who wants to leave the king's life, but also King Yi.
Why can't he borrow a knife to kill people? As long as he grasps the movements of King Yi and his party, leads King Yi's people to the side of the king, and helps to deal with the people of the Shenyu Palace, then he can completely enjoy the benefits of the fisherman, and he does not have to risk his life at this moment.
Liu Yeqing smiled slyly, and made a salute to Mangjian with his fist, "This time, I will be ordered by His Majesty, and the most important task is to take the heads of Youheng Guojun and the ministers. β
"Those who know the times are Junjie. As soon as she flicked her sleeves, her red cloak and Yan Jinchu's purple begon-colored daqi shook resolutely in the cold wind under her swing.
Behind them, the people who had been surrounded had already made way of a road.
Mangjian smiled slightly, holding Yan Jinchu, "Let's go." β
Turning their backs, the two of them walked calmly and slowly, and they didn't look back, now was the last moment of psychological warfare, the calmer they were, the slower they walked, the more Liu Yeqing felt that there were indeed a lot of secret guards of the Shenyu Palace around them.
Seeing that Liu Yeqing was a second person who was afraid of death, he never knew what a good opportunity he had missed to kill the king.
Yan Jinchu had a faint smile on his face, but his jade white hands showed his sleeves while walking, as if he had made some gestures, and seemed to have just stroked his robe casually......
Liu Yeqing watched the two of them slowly disappear from view, with both the relief of the rest of their lives after the catastrophe and the chagrin that the big thing was not accomplished, he whispered to the people around him: "Send someone to lead King Yi's people to the side of the king......
Before he finished speaking, a group of people ran out of nowhere, and he couldn't help but say, and most of the people around Liu Yeqing died.
Liu Yeqing looked at the person who died in a short time, and such a sudden change scared him a lot. "You ...... Who are you?"
A silent and smiling face appeared in front of him, and Liu Yeqing's voice was full of fear, "Yi, Yi, Yizhao...... You, you're not ......"
He wanted to say that King Liwang and his guards hadn't been scattered long ago under the surprise attack of King Yi and him, how could they suddenly appear here?
"General Liu, leave His Royal Highness the king, please go all the way, your wife and concubine and your children will accompany you, and you will not be lonely. Yi Zhao smiled gloomily, "And you can rest assured that your high-ranking officials can also rest assured that in the near future, your master will also go down to look for you." β
"You ......"
Yi Zhao made Liu Yeqing never finish what he didn't say.
It is true that Liwang was seriously injured, and that kind of serious injury has to be acted alone in order to lure out Liu Yeqing, a big fish, if it weren't for Liu Yeqing to take action against Liwang with all his cronies, it would really be the most legitimate reason to get rid of this group of people.
Yi Zhao's sword style was very fast, Liu Yeqing did not die when he fell, his gradually dilated pupils reflected the bloody sword in Yi Zhao's hand, the bright red blood was his, this sword cost him his life, and ruined his sweet dreams.
How did I forget, the king was decisive and decisive, and how many people were in the hands of the king. Why do you think that you can easily end the person who leaves the king?
High-ranking officials are generous, power invades the government and the opposition, endless wealth, beautiful wives and concubines...... In the end, it's just a dream.
