In the dim, damp cell, a ray of sunlight shone in obliquely through the small window above the corner.

The blinding light did not add light to the cell, but clearly illuminated countless flying smoke and dust.

Murong Xi sat curled up in the far corner of the cell, her chin resting on her knees, thinking about what had happened in front of her.

I don't know how long it took, the light became dimmer and dimmer, and Murong Xi knew that it was time for the sunset to go west, but she hadn't figured out what was wrong.

Shouldn't you be flattering in front of the emperor?

Escape from the palace first?

Murong Xi smiled bitterly and shook her head.

Once you loosen your mouth and promise the emperor, you will definitely fall into the handle.

The road is long and obstructive, and every word and deed in the future will be hindered.

The emperor suddenly imprisoned her without looking at the queen mother's face, how could it be a simple thing to ask her to do?

Sighing, Murong Xi changed her posture and leaned against the cold wall, not knowing what happened to the egret who went to deliver medicine to Concubine Li.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a sudden sound of pushing and shoving in the quiet cell.

Murong Xi listened intently, only to hear the jailer's shouting: "Go quickly!" ”

"This official, the slave maid is the maidservant next to the princess, and the princess is in Cining Palace, are you mistaken?"

It's the voice of an egret.

Murong Xi hurriedly walked to the prison fence and looked out.

Because of the limited angle, all you can see is the long shadow that is obliquely reflected on the verandah floor.

The slightly taller shadow pushed the egret, "Less nonsense, can you catch the wrong one in the palace?" You're the one who caught you! ”

Then there was the silence of the white egret, and the jailer was still chattering and sarcastic: "The prison has been built for many years, and you are the second person to be imprisoned by His Majesty, I really don't know what to say about you." ”

The egret also wanted to continue to probe the jailer's tone, but after a glance, he suddenly saw Murong Xi's figure.

She immediately rushed over, "Princess, how can this be?" Are you alright? ”

The master and servant were separated by the prison fence, and the egret turned his back to the jailer, asking Murong Xi with his eyes if he wanted to escape immediately.

Murong Xi shook his head without a trace, "It's a long story, and if you come, you will be safe." Your Majesty Shengming will not kill indiscriminately! ”

The jailer snorted, unfastened the key from his waist, opened the door to the other cell, pushed the egret inside, and then locked the door and strode away.

The egret stood quietly at the cell door, the tips of her ears moving, and after making sure that no one was there, she restrained her submission to the jailer and looked solemn.

"Princess, is it Your Majesty?"

Murong Xi bowed slightly.

Even though Bai Lu guessed that this was the result, his heart still sank when he saw Murong Xi nodding. 

"Princess, the slave can untie this chain, do you want to ......?"

"Don't." Murong Xi categorically rejected Bailu's proposal, and if it wasn't for her willingness, the emperor wouldn't have been able to detain her so smoothly.

Murong Ji raised her eyebrows, "The medicinal herbs have already been given to Concubine Li?" ”

Egret: "Yes, the slave maid personally delivered it to Concubine Li." ”

Murong Xi sat on the ground, with a hint of unclear expectation.

"Let's wait and see what happens, and if it doesn't change within two days, it's not too late for you to go out and ask for help."

In two days, the poison on the emperor's body will definitely have a miraculous effect.

A sly evil flashed in Murong Xi's eyes.

On the other hand, it's also gambling.

Bet that the person she suspects in her heart will come to her rescue—

Jiang Huaiyin rode a horse and galloped through the streets of the capital, riding in the dust.

The last touch of the sunset set on the western mountain, Jiang Huaiyin tightened the reins in his hand, and the proud figure shook slightly with the neighing of the horse's hooves in the air.

Night Blade walked towards Jiang Huaiyin, "Lord Wang! You're back. ”

"How long has the princess been in?" Jiang Huaiyin's words did not have warmth, and they still exuded a shock that could not be hesitated at all.

Nightblade immediately replied, "It's been more than three hours. ”

Without waiting for the words of the night blade to fall, Jiang Huaiyin turned over and dismounted, and walked straight to the palace gate.

The anger rising up and down his body was overflowing.

Nightblade was frightened, and followed and whispered, "Lord Wang, the egret followed in." ”

Jiang Huaiyin didn't respond, and when he came to the palace gate, his eyebrows were dyed with anger, and he asked the doorman, "Where is the princess?" ”

One of them bowed and saluted, "I've seen the prince, the princess, he didn't enter the palace today." ”

Nightblade raised his eyes in shock, and his heart screamed badly.

Jiang Huaiyin couldn't help but say, and casually pulled out the long sword at his waist and stabbed the man's eyebrows.

The green sword passed through his body, until Jiang Huaiyin pulled out the long sword, and blood splashed from the center of the man's eyebrows, and he didn't figure out what he had done wrong-

Jiang Huaiyin's face was expressionless, and he turned to look at the other person.

Before the man could recover from Jiang Huaiyin's killing, he felt a chill on his neck, as if a cold light was shooting.

Following the cold light, the man looked back at Jiang Huaiyin's cold eyes, and knelt down with trembling legs.

"Lord, the princess has not—"

"Poof!"

Jiang Huaiyin didn't give him a chance to continue to open his mouth, and the green sword sealed his throat and killed him with one blow.

He put his sword into the sheath, walked into the palace gate indifferently and ruthlessly, and left a faint sentence to the night blade: "This king enters the palace alone, you hurry up and go to the Dakong Temple, 'please' the queen mother to return to the palace." ”

Nightblade should be, turn around and want to leave.

Walking in front of the horse, Nightblade couldn't help but glance back at Jiang Huaiyin's murderous back-

Jiang Huaiyin walked calmly and walked all the way to the Taihe Palace.

On the way, I met people and asked Murong Xi where he was going, and the answers he got were all without exception, they had never seen it.

The long sword in Jiang Huaiyin's hand didn't give the palace people a chance to say a second sentence, and his snow-white clothes were gradually stained by the splashes of blood.

Everywhere he walked, there were rivers of blood.

When the emperor received the news, there were already many corpses on the court path, and under the anger of Long Yan, the anger that the emperor had endured for many years finally broke through the ban and manifested it emotionally.

"Are the Praetorian Guards all decorations? Just let him go on a killing spree? ”

Gonggong Ji was already trembling with fright, and said to the emperor in a cold sweat: "For the sake of Your Majesty's safety, Your Majesty should leave the Taihe Hall first-"

"What about the Commander? Spread my will, and ordered the commander to bring 5,000 elite soldiers to the palace immediately to escort him! ”

The emperor stood up, and there was no trace of blood on his face.

Jiang Huaiyin's martial arts are superb, and with one enemy and thousands, boiling will also boil him to death!

The emperor's eyes were suddenly filled with murderous intent, grinding his teeth, staring in the direction of the palace gate.

Jiang Huaiyin, since you are looking for death by yourself, you will stop blaming me for being ruthless.

Today is your death day!

The rescuers have not yet arrived, and Jiang Huaiyin's figure has already entered the Taihe Palace.

Dozens of Praetorian Guards stood guard in front of the temple gate, drawing their swords against each other.

"Lord Wang, Your Majesty has an order, no one is allowed to trespass."

The corners of Jiang Huaiyin's lips hooked slightly, turned his head to look at the guard, and asked coldly: "Have you seen the princess?" ”

The guard was stunned by his star, and forgot to answer, only instinctively shook his head.

The next moment, the white shadow in his eyes rapidly enlarged, and with Jiang Huaiyin's sneer, his chest also hurt fiercely.

The guard hung his head in a daze, looked at the hole in his chest that was spurting blood, opened his mouth, and fell to the ground.

Jiang Huaiyin withdrew his long sword, his eyes were sharp and he shot at the guards who were blocking the door of the palace, the tip of the blood-dripping sword slammed into the floor tiles, the sound was very faint, but it was enough to penetrate the Taihe Palace.

"Jiang Huaiyin asks to see Your Majesty."
