Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Fire Rises in the Middle of the Night
Ahya looked at him, pursed her lips, and lowered her eyes.
"I'm afraid."
She spoke softly, her eyelashes fluttering slightly, casting a shadow in the candlelight.
"But when I think it's you, I think it's okay." The corners of her lips curled, her eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and she quietly looked at Xie Ji, as if there was a starlight shining in her eyes.
"I'm a not very good person, the Shen family bullied me, I don't like them, so I feel that Your Majesty is too light on them like this." She didn't shy away from her little selfishness, and pouted, "I'm just eccentric, and there's no way to do it." ”
Xie Wei looked at her straight, as if considering the authenticity of her words, and a warm color gradually appeared in his eyes.
He didn't go on with the subject, just covered Ahya's eyes with one hand to keep her from seeing the smile on his face, and lowered his voice a little softer.
"Sleep." He said, not noticing how gentle his expression was, if Zhou Zhong was here, I am afraid that he would call the imperial doctor directly, "Soon, everything will be over." ”
Soon.
Ahya blinked, and her long eyelashes swept into Xie Yu's palm, like a butterfly fluttering and falling to the tip of his heart, itchy and difficult to let go.
This night is a rare warmth since the two met.
In the midst of the murderous machines in the courtyard, they crowded on a kang, as if one was not a king, and the other was not an enemy princess who concealed his identity, just the most ordinary two people, who got together and drew a little warmth from each other in this long night.
The night is getting darker, and everything is silent.
In the darkness, a little flame suddenly appeared, and then expanded infinitely, enveloping the entire small courtyard in a sea of fire.
"It's on fire?!"
When Ahya was picked up by Xie Ji, she was still a little dazed, until she smelled the smell of burning in the air, she came back to her senses, her eyes widened, and she couldn't believe it.
It's a mountain forest! Is Shen San crazy!
"Just a coward."
Xie Yu probably didn't expect Shen San to be so crazy, his face was condensed at this time, with murderous intent, he pressed Ahya into his arms with one hand, and rushed out quickly.
I saw that in the small courtyard, a group of soldiers and horses were surrounded, blocking the way to leave.
Teji led a team of Beirong soldiers and horses, also among them, staring at Xie Ji vigilantly.
Sure enough, it was a dark line sent by her good prime minister in Beirong.
Ahya retracted her gaze and sighed secretly, although she had been mentally prepared for a long time, she was still a little disappointed at this time.
"Tyrant!"
In the center of the rebels, a young man sat upright on a horse, and when he saw Xie Ji, the expression on his face suddenly became distorted, full of hatred.
He gritted his teeth and shouted angrily, "You kill my whole family, I want you to cut a thousand knives, and there will be no corpse!" ”
Obviously, this is the real Shen San, the person who died in front of the General Soldier's Mansion before was just a stand-in.
"A thousand cuts? It's up to you? Xie Wei chuckled lowly, not hiding his disdain at all.
His eyes were a little cold, and more mocking.
"If you dare to fight me with real swords, you can be considered a kind. It's a pity...... Even if I'm defenseless now, you'll still dare to be a shrunken turtle who sets fire to it. ”
"Tyrant! It's useless to say more! ”
Shen San was enraged by him, his face was very ugly, but he couldn't cover the little bit of weakness: "Kill him!" ”
"Rebels, the Nine Clans."
Xie Wei opened his mouth lightly, just one sentence, and the momentum around him suddenly overwhelmed Shen San, who was riding on a horse, and suppressed the rebels who were about to move.
Ahya hid in Xie Ji's arms, and for the first time intuitively felt his coercion as an emperor.
"Ahya." Xie Yu suddenly lowered his head, his eyes were deep, and he seemed to mean something, "Give you the soft sword, take it." ”
"Don't tremble, I'm not a diamond bone, invulnerable."
Ahya was stunned for a moment, slowly raised her head, and saw that his gaze had fallen on Teji, and her heart couldn't help but froze.
Is he testing her?
If she really wants Beirong's life and wants his life, there is no more suitable time than this time.
Ahya had long known that he was suspicious, but at this time, there was still a trace of grievance inexplicably.
She closed her eyes, suppressed her emotions, and spoke in a brisk tone, as if she didn't understand his temptation, and responded, "Hmm." ”
If she can't even make him trust in his heart, the rest of the plan will become a castle in the air.
Looks like we'll have to figure out a way.
Ahya's eyes moved slightly, and he saw Shen Sanyi give an order, and the rebels raised their bows in unison.
Until this moment, he still didn't dare to confront Xie Ji head-on. And if he didn't open his mouth, no one in the rebels dared to shoot arrows, and he took the name of killing the king.
Xie Wei has accumulated a lot of power, which can be seen.
Behind him is a sea of fire hunting, and in front of him are thousands of troops.
A yellow oriole cried piercingly breaking the stagnant tense atmosphere.
The sound of killing is rising!
Shen Sanyi waved his hand, and ten thousand arrows were fired.
Xie Jian relied on his strength, quickly dodged the chaotic arrows, and retreated into the sea of fire.
Ahya froze, her breathing almost stagnant.
The sky is full of flames, the burning beams will break, and the house is littered with things, and if you are not careful, you will trip and never get up again. But the smoke is billowing out, and people can't open their eyes.
Xie Wei walked as fast as flying, like walking on the ground, he avoided the fallen wooden frame, walked quickly through the main house, and kicked open the back door.
Bang!
The burning wooden door and beams fell at the same time, muffling out the sounds of killing and screaming behind them.
"Ahya."
Xie Yu's side face was smoked with a few black marks, and he bowed his head slightly, reflecting the firelight, like a god.
Ahya's heart shook like a drum.
I heard him sigh, as if helpless, but also with a smile.
"We're on the run again."
Ahya was stunned for a long time when he said this, and then she came back to her senses, her eyelids jumped, and she endured it for a long time before she didn't scold.
She's not blind! Not even deaf!
The yellow bird call just now was clearly Jin Wuwei's code. When Xie Wei carried her into the sea of fire, the Shen San rebels behind him had also been killed from behind, and they were in chaos.
Is there something wrong with this tyrant or some unsavory fetish! Tossed all night and haven't had enough?
She pursed her lips, suppressed the anger in her eyes, lowered her head, pinched Xie Ji's collar, and asked pretending to be confused, "Where are you going?" ”
"Where do you want to go?" Xie Yu himself didn't know what evil he had fallen into, and he had clearly closed the net, but he didn't want to return to the identity of the emperor, so he made such a stupid move.
As he walked forward, his gaze fixed on Ahya for a long time, dark and uncertain.
Ahya tugged at the corners of her mouth, and it took a long time to squeeze out a few words with a little indignation.
"Go to the ancestral grave of the Shen family!"
She is so unlucky, of course the culprit of the Shen family has to share a thing or two.
She wrapped her arms around Xie Yu's neck, buried her face on his shoulder, hid the anger in her eyes, and added hypocritically.
"Shen San must not have thought of it."
New hatred and old hatred, she will raise his ancestral grave!
