"Lingyun, you...... What exactly do you want? ……”

Yuan Chao took advantage of the fire to rob, intending to insult the imperial concubine Mo Shuiling, but he was unexpectedly hit by Ling Yun's acupoint, and he couldn't help but panic and said in a trembling voice.

"What do I think, of course I want to be ashamed! …… There is a saying that the debt is repaid quickly in June; If it is intended today, let your Lord Yuan fall into my hands again - you said that I will not repay this revenge now, when will I wait? ”

The last few words of Ling Yun were extremely clear and extremely low, and a cold and fierce aura emanated from his body in an instant, it was a cold killing machine.

"No, no! Lingyun, you can't kill me! Yuan Xuan said hoarsely: "Everyone knows that you are a fair and upright gentleman, but you attacked me behind your back, so even if you kill me, you will not win, I am unwilling, I am unwilling...... And I also know that you Ling Daxia are not such a person, you won't kill me so inexplicably, you definitely won't......"

"Really?" Ling Yun's nose snorted coldly, "Don't kidnap me with the so-called moral standards of a righteous man and a gentleman!" Just a despicable villain like you, are you worthy of talking about a decent gentleman?

"Yuan Chao, even if I don't care about the bad things you did before, just rely on the current cowardice and delusional insult to the mother, you deserve death!"

The more he spoke, the more angry he became, and he suddenly raised his hand to draw his sword, "White Rainbow Penetrating the Sun", and with a pounce, the long sword had penetrated deep into Yuan Chao's chest!

The dripping blood immediately spurted out, splashing on Ling Yun's black clothes, forming a strange brown, a blur, and it was shocking.

Yuan Chao screamed miserably, his eyes widened, his lips twitched, as if he wanted to say something, but he finally couldn't say it.

The moment Ling Yun drew his sword, his trembling body fell down like a piece of dead wood without any life.

At this time, he was angry, his bloodshot eyes were still wide, and he seemed to be extremely unwilling; The tragic situation in the prison in the past flashed in front of me like an electric flash:

instructed the jailer Zhang Hu to poison the tea that Ling Yun was drinking...... arranged for Shen Hai to enter the cell and kill him...... arson in the dungeon...... I want to turn Lingyun into ashes along with the cell...... Framed and blamed Ling Yun for murder and escaped from prison......

Thinking about it at this time, he really regretted it, regretted why he didn't kill Ling Yun in the first place? If you could have killed him at that time, there would be no disaster today......

The imperial concubine Mo Shuiling witnessed the bloody scene that was happening on the side, and she was so shocked that she was shocked, and she was terrified, and she screamed in horror and covered her eyes.

Du Zhenghai looked at her frightened appearance, and hurriedly stepped forward to comfort: "Ling'er, scared you, right?" In fact, you don't have to pity him, because this kind of person deserves to die, and he deserves today's fate! Okay, it's okay, it's okay..."

He tilted his head to her side, and there was a hint of tenderness in his cold voice, gentleness, and restraint, which made her originally restless heart slightly softened.

She raised her face and took a deep breath, staring blankly at Yuan Chao's collapsed body on the ground, almost lifeless, her teeth chattering uncontrollably, "Then what should we do now?" ……”

As he was talking, he heard a noise of people outside, probably because the palace guards rushed to hear the news.

Du Zhenghai's originally gloomy face instantly became fierce and solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "The matter has come to this, either the fish dies or the net is broken, let's fight to the death!" ”

Ling Yun withdrew his sword, lifted his eyelids carelessly, looked at him with deep eyes and said, "Of course, you and I can fight a bloody way out of the palace, so what about Concubine Lingniang?" ”

Mo Shuiling's eyes were slightly red, the tip of his nose was sour, and he said Mu Ran: "It's up to now, it's one by one-you guys go quickly, leave me alone!" ……”

Du Zhenghai said emotionally: "If you want to go, let's go together; If we can't escape, we'll die together! ”

Mo Shuiling's apricot eyes turned watery, and he choked up: "Brother Du! ……”

"When it comes to the critical moment, we just think about fighting to the death, alas, can't we think of other alternative ways to change the unfavorable situation in front of us?" Ling Yun's sword eyebrows condensed, and he snorted disapprovingly.

"Oh? ......" Du Zhenghai looked at him with burning eyes and said, "Then in Brother Ling's opinion, what should I do?" ”

Ling Yun's eyes were determined, shining with starlight, "I thought of an idea, maybe we can do both; And everyone doesn't have to die, they can still achieve today's plan! ”

Du Zhenghai's eyes flashed, and he said eagerly: "Tell me quickly, what is the idea?" ”……

The dark clouds of the silent night sky flowed, the moon was obscured, and even the stars were dim; The entire palace was lonely and deserted, and the night was as cold as water, shrouded in a layer of darkness.

Li Zhishan, the commander of the Ouchi guards, had already fallen asleep, and suddenly heard the report that Qixia Pavilion was on fire, so he couldn't help but be shocked, hurriedly got dressed, grabbed his sword, and brought the guards Zhao Ying and others to rush over.

From a distance, I saw the smoke billowing and flames billowing from the Qixia Pavilion, and there was a noisy sound. He secretly screamed, "Oops! ......" quickened his pace.

When I got closer, I saw the blazing flames scurrying around, tongues of fire licking the surrounding objects, and the air was filled with a suffocating pungent smell.

The panicked maids, eunuchs and others fled in all directions like headless flies, shouting and screaming, and the scene was in chaos.

Before arriving at the gate of the palace, I saw a figure flashing in the palace, and a black-clothed masked man jumped out of the palace wall and ran outside with the momentum of "swallow copying water".

Li Zhishan thought to himself that this person must be an assassin, so he ordered the guards on the left and right to open their bows and arrows. Immediately, arrows flew like rain and shot at the black-clad masked man.

The black-clothed masked man was extremely athletic, and several chic and neat "harriers turned over" in the air, and at the same time, a "north wind blowing snow", with a wave of the long sword, all the random arrows fell to the ground.

At this time, another figure flashed in the palace, and a person chased out with a sword in his hand, and shouted in a deep voice: "Bold thief, where are you going?" ”

Under the hazy moonlight, everyone saw that the person who chased him out was dressed as a large internal guard, but the night was too dark, and his body and face were a little blurred, and they couldn't see who it was.

As he spoke, the black-clad masked assassin and the Ouchi guards had already rushed out several feet away.

Li Zhishan's eyes flashed, and he ordered left and right: "Chase quickly, don't let go of the assassin!" ”

The guards groaned, and then chased after them with swords in hand.

Here, Li Zhishan couldn't worry about the safety of Concubine Ling, and rushed to Qixia Pavilion. At this time, the guards on patrol had already participated in the firefighting, and everyone was in and out, looking panicked, and there was a panicked and tense atmosphere.

Li Zhishan couldn't help but sink in his heart, and thought to himself: "Concubine Lingniang is the favorite concubine of the saint, and the saint's love for her is as precious as a treasure; Tonight, Qixia Pavilion is on fire and an assassin, if the Lingfei Niangniang has a bad pool, I really can't eat and walk around! ”

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, and a layer of fine sweat appeared on his forehead, and he hurriedly arranged for his henchman Zhao Ying to investigate the situation.

Zhao Ying took the order and hurriedly went. He turned around and reported to Li Zhishan:

A total of two Assassins came tonight, Yuan Chao and Zhou Shan were on duty at night, so they encountered and fought with the Assassins. The two assassins were extremely vicious and had strong martial arts, and although one of the assassins was executed on the spot, Yuan Chao was also killed in the line of duty......

When Li Zhishan heard that Yuan Chao was dead, he felt his head bang and almost collapsed to the ground. He let out a hoarse exclamation with his mouth half-open, his chest was in pain as if it had been split by a knife, and he muttered, "What, Yuan Chao is dead?" How could it be, how could it ......"

Zhao Ying rolled up her sleeves and wiped sweat and tears on her face, and choked up: "My lord, this is true!" The subordinates listened to the maid Xiuju of the Lingfei Niangniang. ”

Li Zhishan glanced at him, and said with a little gloom in his eyes: "What happened later?" ”

Zhao Ying lowered her head to smooth out the chaotic emotions, and said dumbly: "During the fierce battle, they accidentally knocked over the lamp and candle in the panic, igniting the curtain, which caused the fire. In the confusion, another assassin escaped, and Zhou Shan had chased the thief. ”

"Zhou Shan? ......" Li Zhishan's autumn-like deep eyes turned, thoughtful.

Because Zhou Shan is introverted, he usually doesn't socialize with people much, and Li Zhishan has many subordinates; So he was not impressed by this mediocre subordinate.

Zhao Ying said: "Yes, it's Zhou Shan." He is a subordinate of Captain Yuan, and he is also his sworn brother, and I heard that their relationship is iron. ”

Li Zhishan nodded. I thought: "This Zhou Shan works under Yuan Chao, he usually speaks little, and he acts in a low-key manner, he didn't pay much attention to him, but he didn't expect that he was not afraid of death, and in the face of such a powerful enemy, he dared to chase him alone, which is impressive!" ”

Zhao Ying saw that Li Zhishan was just silent, so he said cautiously: "Commander Li-"

"By the way, how is Concubine Lingniang doing now?" Li Zhishan came back to his senses, and his face returned to his previous state of deep gloom.

Zhao Ying said: "I heard Xiuju and them say that after the fire in Qixia Pavilion broke out, thanks to the timely arrival of the patrolling guards, the Lingfei Niangniang was rescued from danger. Now Niangniang is temporarily resting in the nearby Yuchen Palace. ”

Li Zhishan frowned slightly, and asked a little nervously, "Concubine Ling's mother is nothing wrong, right?" ”

Zhao Ying said: "Niangniang is fine, but she was a little frightened. ”

Li Zhishan sighed softly and said, "That's good." ”

As he was talking, another maid named Caiping walked out of Yuchen Palace with a solemn face.

When Li Zhishan and Zhao Ying saw each other, their hearts throbbed unconsciously, and they hurriedly stepped forward......
