What's more, if this was the only thing that could give some comfort to the exhausted person in front of her, she could do it. She believes that A-Niang will also be willing.

The emperor never spoke again. Closed his eyes, just holding her hand tighter.

The candle burned quietly, and the inch became shorter. The palace in the distance missed the third watch. Under the dual effect of medicine and sickness, the emperor fell asleep again.

Suyu has always been with him like this. The old palace eunuch came up and whispered to her to rest. He said he was here to take care of. She looked at the sleeping emperor's face and shook her head. At this moment, there was a slightly hurried footstep outside. Zhao Zhongfang immediately walked out. Soon, he hurried back but tiptoed, stopped at the door, and looked at Suyu with a somewhat anxious expression.

Su Yu gently took out his hand, tucked the quilt, and walked out.

There's just a piece of news over there.

Last night, the crown prince launched a palace mutiny, and the empress dowager ordered someone to detain the queen Liu and send her to the De'an Palace to watch and wait for the emperor to fall.

Just now, when the palace eunuch was ordered to send the wine, the queen Liu took advantage of the unpreparedness of the people around her, grabbed a knife, put it against the throat of the empress dowager, and asked to see the emperor.

"Where are the people at the moment?" Su Yu asked.

"It is said that she has taken the Empress Dowager hostage into the Purple Cloud Palace, and at this moment she was intercepted, she retreated into the West Hall and is in the midst of a confrontation."

Su Yu hurried to the Purple Cloud Palace.

Outside the door of the west hall, the palace guards were already surrounded, and there were bursts of shouts inside: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! I know you're listening! They stopped you, and they didn't ask the concubine to see you! Please, see the concubine! Just one side! Please! ”

A forbidden army general in charge of the Purple Cloud Palace's guards tonight saw the arrival of the rain, and hurriedly led the guards to kneel, fearfully accused, saying that the empress dowager was old, and if the queen went crazy and really hurt her life, she didn't dare to get too close.

The rain is in.

At the entrance of the west hall, Koyanagi held the Empress Dowager's neck with one arm and held a knife in the other hand, the blade of which was towards her neck, in the direction of the main hall, and was screaming loudly with all his might. Her hair was disheveled, her face was pale, and her gaze was wild. The Empress Dowager, who was pinched by her neck, rolled her eyes, opened her mouth, and gasped with difficulty, looking extremely weak. When he saw Su Yu walking through the entrance of the West Hall, Koyanagi suddenly stopped his voice, stared at her with wide eyes for a moment, and then showed an expression of extreme hatred on his face.

"It's you! What are you here to do? Get out! I want to see Your Majesty! You don't go again! I'll kill this old thing! ”

She gritted her teeth, and in a fierce manner, her hand trembled, and the blade grazed the queen mother's neck, and a bloody mark came out.

The old woman was shaking, and several people from the De'an Palace who came with her screamed in horror, and rushed towards Su Yu in horror, kneeling and kowtowing, begging her not to force Queen Liu too much.

Su Yu stopped walking and didn't move forward, only looked at Xiaoyanagi and said, "Your Majesty is not here, you don't know?" The prince was in turmoil last night, and His Majesty had already turned away. ”

Koyanagi was stunned for a moment, and then yelled again: "Where is he!" I want to see him! ”

"Your Majesty is busy and won't see you. Tell me what you have to do. You release the Empress Dowager first, and I will convey it for you. ”

"What about the Prince? I want to see the Prince! I will pardon him from his sins! He was forced! Otherwise, this old thing won't want to live! Death to death, everyone dies together! ”

The Empress Dowager closed her eyes in pain due to suffocation, and a terrifying ah-ah sound came out of her throat. Instead of showing the slightest mercy, Koyanagi strangled her neck even tighter.

"If you can't see the prince's face, don't think I'll let her go!"

"The prince has committed suicide in the ruined palace in fear of sin!"

The general of the guard replied in a loud voice, then made a gesture to the guards, led the people, and carefully and slowly surrounded the front.

The Koyanagi clan was struck by lightning, and the blood on his face receded in an instant. She turned her head sharply, fixed her gaze in the direction of the ruined palace for a moment, the person trembled, and then turned her face again, and swept Su Yu's face with a flickering resentful gaze.

"Don't come here!"

She yelled loudly, retreating while forcibly dragging the Empress Dowager towards the depths of the west hall.

Su Yu's heart was beating for a while, and he subconsciously chased after him. Koyanagi stopped in front of the mural wall with the picture of the Queen Mother of the West, only to see her looking up, her eyes straight for a moment, and suddenly, she raised her hand and pointed at the beauty on the wall, and the incessant curse poured out of her mouth.

"You shameless slut! If you are alive, you will seduce Your Majesty, and when you are dead, you will not let him go! The position of the princess was originally mine! You robbed me of my place! You slut! ”

She waved the knife in her hand and frantically scratched at the beauty on the mural. The beauty's skirt and cloud sleeves were instantly covered with horizontal and vertical scratches.

"I told you to seduce Your Majesty! I'll scratch your face! I'll see if Your Majesty will still want you! ”

She laughed maniacally, stood on tiptoe, and slashed at the beauty's face with her knife.

"Stop!" Su Yu shouted. But instead of stopping, the woman's laughter grew more and more crazy and full of pride.

"I'll kill you! Not only will they kill you, but they will make you abandon your body in the wilderness, and let the wild dogs tear you apart, and eat you up, leaving not a single bone behind! so that you will not even have a grave! Eternal life cannot be superborn! ”

With a curse, the sharp blade scraped against the wall, making a piercing grinding sound, and the pastels fell to the ground.

The beauty's cheeks have been ruined.

When Su Yu saw that the blade was about to cut towards the beauty's smiling eyes again, the blood in her whole body was boiling, frying her skin with a bang. With a feeling of pain like her own body on a knife, she didn't think about it, pulled out a dagger from the waist of a nearby palace guard, held it, and ran to the mural wall.

"I told you to stop!" With a pair of red eyes, she shouted sharply, and from behind, a knife stabbed into Koyanagi's back.

Just when the Koyanagi clan was frantically scratching the mural with their knives, the guards had quietly opened their bows behind them, and were waiting to find a good opportunity, when they suddenly saw the princess rushing up like this, and for a moment, the audience was stunned.

The dagger entered the body, Xiaoyanagi's whole person twitched, and he paused stiffly for a moment, and when there was a loud sound, the knife in her hand fell to the ground, and the Empress Dowager also loosened from her clamps and fell to the ground.

Koyanagi turned his head, his face was hideous, his eyes were staring at the rain, and the person fell crookedly to the ground at the base of the wall along the mural wall, shrinking in pain.

Blood began to slowly spill from her body and mouth.

Knowing that at this time, everyone in the west hall reacted. General Su Wei hurriedly ordered someone to send the fainting Empress Dowager out for treatment.

Su Yu didn't look at the Koyanagi clan who fell under his hands in front of his feet.

She looked up and looked at the injured beauty on the wall stupidly, her eyes were hot, and her whole person was so shaky that she almost couldn't stand because of the violent mood swings.

"Princess! What's wrong with you? Are you alright? ”

Suddenly, she heard someone behind her calling to her. It's Zhao Zhongfang.

She barely calmed down, closed her eyes, turned around, and was about to leave, when suddenly, the little Yanagi who was dying under the base of the wall suddenly opened his eyes, grabbed the knife, and didn't know where the strength came from, and the person also jumped up, raised the knife, and pounced viciously at her.

"Let's die together!" She gritted her teeth.

The guards in the palace were taking care of the Empress Dowager, and this scene happened too suddenly, when the people nearby reacted and tried their best to save, but it was too late to rush closer.

The old palace eunuch closest to her was desperate, dragging his stump and about to rush to the rescue, but his foot slipped and the person fell to the ground.

"Princess—" he shouted, his eyes cracking.

At this moment, accompanied by a low and sharp whistling sound that broke through the air, a fierce and fierce arrow shot straight in from the direction of the gate of the west hall.

It flew over everyone's heads, as if falling from the sky, drawing a downward slanting line, impartially, and with a snap, the sharp iron cluster penetrated the throat of the Koyanagi clan who was standing up, bursting open a bloody hole.

As if with a thousand pieces of violence, it shot straight through Koyanagi's neck, inserted into the wall behind her, and nailed her whole person firmly to the mural.

Koyanagi's eyes were still wide open. Before she could react, she waved her hands and writhed her head in vain against the wall, or let out a strange ho-ho sound in her throat from the great pain. Soon after, she convulsed in pain, tilted her head, stopped struggling, and finally, died completely.

Su Yu's whole person was still trembling uncontrollably.

She slowly lifted her red eyes and looked across her.

Pei Xiaoyuan threw away the bow in his hand, which was still trembling, jumped down from a guard who was kneeling at the entrance of the hall so that he could use his back to step on his high so that he could shoot arrows, and rushed towards the palace.

Tears flowed from her eyes.

As he kept pushing people away, ran to her, and stretched out his hands to her, her legs went limp, and the people followed, and they also fell limply into his arms.

Chapter 116

Koyanagi's body was carried away, and the guards and palace guards also withdrew.

In the empty west hall restored, only Su Yu and Pei Xiaoyuan who was holding her were left.

"It's all my fault that I came too late! It's all my fault, you're frightened......" he kept comforting her.

Liu Ceye's remnants are still quite numerous. He has been busy with this matter since last night, until tonight, thinking that the emperor is not in good condition, worried about her situation in the palace, and after arranging everything, he came back to take a look, but he didn't want to encounter such an accident.

Thinking that if Fang Cai had taken a step slower, she might have fallen under Koyanagi's knife, he felt extremely afraid. He simply carried her out of the hall where the smell of blood still seemed to be left in his breath, and came outside, on an empty platform with fresh air, crossed his boots and sat on the ground against a beam, untied his outer shackles, and wrapped the person who was still trembling in his arms.

He stopped talking, and told her to lie down in his arms in complete relaxation, and his arms clung to her.

Finally, he felt the person in his arms slowly stop trembling and curl up.

Just when he thought she was asleep, suddenly, as if she remembered something, she opened her eyes and shouted softly: "A-Niang! ”

Then, she jumped up from Pei Xiaoyuan's arms, left him, and hurried back to the west hall.

In the west hall, there are seven or eight palace eunuchs rushing back and forth at this moment. Some people lie on the ground, wiping the blood from the ground, and some people clean up the blood stains on the wall.

The base map there was originally a lotus cloud, and the blood had seeped into the pigment. After wiping off a layer of surface marks, he wiped it again, and although the little palace eunuch was extremely careful, he still had a bloody color. He hurriedly remedied, but the more he wiped, the more blurry the basemap became.

"Stop! Who told you to move here! ”

When the consul palace supervisor saw it, he hurriedly rushed to stop it, and when he saw that the part of the mural that had been passed was like a faint red mist, which was very conspicuous compared with the intact original paintings around him, he couldn't help but be shocked, paused, and scolded angrily. The little palace eunuch's face turned pale, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

His Majesty the Emperor cherished this mural is obvious to all the palace eunuchs who work here. He can often be seen coming here in the dead of night, wandering, or looking at each other from a distance, and sometimes even sitting on the wall, and then sitting until dawn.

Now although this painting has been cut by the willow knife first, the damage is really not light, but one yard to one yard, and then it is not cleaned properly and destroyed, if the emperor is angry......

The consul palace supervisor looked at the large red marks on the wall, and he was also flustered, walking around like a headless fly, and he didn't know what to do, and found a figure standing at the entrance of the hall.

It was the princess who went and returned.

He hurried to meet him, and before he could say anything, he first knelt down and pleaded guilty, and then said the matter again. The little palace eunuch who was in trouble was even more frightened and collapsed on the ground, and people trembled.

Su Yu walked to the painting wall.

Everyone behind her was at first breathless and apprehensive, but soon they realized that the princess looked very different from when she had just been rescued by the colt.

Her mood seemed to have recovered, and she only looked at the scarred beauty in silence for a moment, and finally swept over the picture that was accidentally damaged by the little palace eunuch, and said in a somewhat depressed voice: "It's okay." Go down. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The consul thanked him and hurriedly withdrew from the west hall with his men. Subsequently, other palace supervisors who worked in the courtyard of Jixian Hall arrived under the leadership of Yang Zaien. They brought in the work plan, put the paintbrushes, paints, shovels, lime, white clay and many other objects used to repair the murals one by one, took the ladder, and added bright candles in the temple, the light was enough to reflect the whole painting wall. After getting ready, the palace eunuchs withdrew, and Su Yu was left alone in the palace.

When she walked out of the small attic at the corner of the west hall, she had already removed the hairpin ring and changed into a painter's clothes that were convenient for painting.

She came to the work plan, picked up the shovel, came to the painting wall, raised her arms, and began to shovel up the uneven marks on the wall that had been cut by the knife.

It was getting brighter and darker, and the lamp was turned on. She threw herself in, thirsty, hungry, and tireless, and painted alone for a day and a night, and finally, in the middle of the night the next day, she added the last touch of paint to the beait's wounded face.

After the restoration of the mural, it was restored as before, and the people in the painting came like stepping on the clouds again.

She stood on the top of the high ladder, looked at the smiling eyes of the beauty of the light for a long time, let out a long breath, put down her already sorely swollen arm, stabilized herself, bowed her head and was about to climb down, paused, and slowly turned back.

Behind him stood a man silently.

It's Pei Xiaoyuan.

He waited at the bottom of the stairs. As soon as she turned around, he reached out to her, and then, without waiting for her to respond, his arms reached out, wrapped his arms around her waist, and easily lifted her down the ladder.

His arms are steady and powerful. Tiredness came at her like a whole now. She snuggled quietly in his arms, and he carried her into the little attic, where she lay down on a couch.

He took off her shoes again, twisted the face towel in the water, wiped off a few pieces of paint that had been stained on her nose at some point, wiped her hands in turn, and finally took off a knife tied around his waist and placed it on a low table beside the couch, and then turned off the light, and lay down beside her.

"Your Majesty, I went to ask you, and it's okay for the time being. It's still early in the morning, so get some sleep. ”

In the small pavilion of the west hall that had been darkened, he covered her with a quilt and said unhurriedly.
