Chapter 076: Helpless

"Be a good errand, the emperor said that during his departure from the palace, anyone who trespassed into the palace would rather kill by mistake than let it go!" The voice of Zhang Jing, the commander of the forbidden army, sounded in the dark night, with a hint of ruthlessness.

Qingchen hid in the dark and listened quietly, as if he could imagine Xiao Ling's bloodlust and murder flashing in his eyes when he said those words.

"The lowly rank must do his best, please rest assured. Someone below just answered, but saw a black shadow flash in front of Longchen Palace.

The speed of the black shadow is not extreme, it is difficult to catch fast, so Zhang Jing and the others knocked it clearly, the black shadow is a figure in a night suit, looking at the figure, slender and soft, it seems to be a woman.

"The emperor is really clever, and he is really a little restless. Zhang Jing snorted coldly and waved his hand towards the forbidden army behind him, "Chase, be sure to take this person down, try to keep him alive, if this person resists stubbornly, kill him." ”

"Yes!"

As the words fell, the forbidden army at the gate of Longchen Palace quickly divided into half and chased in the direction of the black shadow, thinking of the mysterious woman who made trouble in the prison not long ago, and the forbidden army still has lingering palpitations, if they can't capture them this time, in front of the emperor, they are afraid that their heads will not be protected.

Zhang Jing was still guarding the gate of Longchen Palace, but he remembered what Xiao Ling had said, if the woman who broke into the Forbidden Palace tonight was the same person who made trouble in the prison a few days ago, then with those forbidden troops, I am afraid that she would not be an opponent.

Thinking of this, Zhang Jing turned his head to the guards at the gate of Longchen Palace and said, "Stay here well, no matter what you see, don't act rashly." ”

After saying this, Zhang Jing also held the sword in his hand and chased in the direction where the black shadow disappeared.

Now is the time!

A sneer appeared at the corner of Qingchen's mouth, who was hiding in the dark, and he held a handful of silver needles in his hand, and was just about to make a move, but he saw the guards at the gate of Longchen Palace fall one after another, unconscious.

"Follow me—"

Qingchen was surprised, but she heard a whisper in her ear, only three words in a low voice, but she heard it very clearly, the familiar voice made her stunned, and without the slightest hesitation, she followed behind the person who came, and swept towards the Longchen Palace.

Xiao Ling is not in Longchen Palace, so Longchen Palace looks dark, Xiao Yi took out the fire fold from his sleeve, and a bright light suddenly crossed in the darkness, Qingchen pulled down the mask on his face, looked at the familiar place in front of him, and the scene before death appeared in his mind again, and the hatred that had been suppressed for a long time in his heart couldn't help but surge up from the bottom of his heart.

Xiao Yi looked at the woman beside him with a complicated expression.

Why did he always feel that Mu Qingchen and the Ningyue Palace were involved in a messy relationship? Why did he feel this monstrous hatred on Mu Qingchen's body again after many days?

After a while, Qingchen forced himself to come back to his senses, looked at the man in front of him, and said indifferently: "Didn't you go with Xiao Ling to Jirou Mountain, why did you appear here?"

"I have never left King Yi's Mansion, and it was Zhao Yan who followed the imperial brother to Rou Mountain. Xiao Yi explained, he didn't mean to hide it at all, and then asked, "What about you? You pretended to be sick for so long and avoided Chunwei, just to come to Longchen Palace to have a look?"

"It's none of your business. Qingchen was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said, not as frank as Xiao Yi.

"Heh, what a twisted woman. Xiao Yi chuckled, as if he knew that Mu Qingchen was very guarded, and he didn't ask anything more, so he spoke again, "Don't you want to know the secret of Longchen Palace? ”

"Do you know the secret of Longchen Palace?" Mu Qingchen asked in surprise.

If she remembers correctly, the person in front of her is Xiao Yi, Xiao Yi, who has been a proton in the Heavenly Star Country for ten years. In the past ten years, he has been guarded by Xiao Ling, by the other princes of the first emperor, and by the defense of the Heavenly Star Defense, but he has not severed his connection with the Ning Yue Kingdom at all, and he has cultivated his own power unknowingly, and has stretched his hand into the palace?

"Since you know so well about the secrets of the palace of Ningyue Kingdom, you should know that Xiao Yi was the first emperor's favorite Nine Emperor Princes. Xiao Yat only said this, then turned and walked towards the dragon chair at the top.

The Nine Emperors' favorite sons of the first emperor.

Mu Qingchen knew in his heart that if Longchen Palace really had a secret room, then only the emperors who had entered Longchen Palace in previous dynasties would know about it, and the reason why Xiao Yi knew it must have been told to him by the first emperor. Now it seems that if she hadn't done her best to deal with Xiao Ling, this throne would not have been Xiao Ling's turn.

"What's the point? Even if there are people from you and me outside, all the guards at the gate of Longchen Palace have fallen, and sooner or later they will be discovered. Xiao Yi's voice sounded again.

Qingchen followed the sound and looked, but saw Xiao Yi sitting on the dragon chair, pressing the armrest of the dragon chair with his right hand, with a slight force, and suddenly, on the wall behind the dragon chair, the originally hanging picture scroll suddenly disappeared, replaced by a stone door.

Xiao Yi tapped a few times on the stone door in the order of Qiankun Zhenxunkan and Gendui, and the stone door opened.

Qingchen silently wrote down the method of opening the stone door, then walked to Xiao Yi's side, stretched out his hand and pushed open all the half-opened stone doors: "Let's go, there is not much time." ”

Xiao Yi nodded, but pulled Qingchen back at the moment when she was about to walk in, didn't say anything, just changed positions with Qingchen, walked in front of him, and blocked Qingchen's body behind him.

Qingchen was slightly stunned, and a complex mood surged in his heart, which was indescribable. In the secret room where the road ahead is unknown, Xiao Yi's move is undoubtedly to block all the dangers in front of him, leaving Mu Qingchen in an absolutely safe position, because he is walking in front, no matter what hidden weapon there is in front of him, he is the first to bear the brunt.

However, the secret room of Longchen Palace did not want to be as murderous as the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, and all the way in, the secret room seemed very calm, Xiao Yi lit the candles on both sides of the secret passage as he walked, making the entire secret passage brighter.

Soon, they arrived at a stone room, the stone room is not big, and the furnishings inside are also clear at a glance, looking at the strange secret room in front of them, the two glanced at each other.

Hanging on the left wall of the secret room are portraits of the emperors of the Ningyue Kingdom, which came to an abrupt end in the generation of the first emperor. Below the portrait, against the base of the wall, there is a huge box about one person long, covered with a red cloth, and I don't know what is inside, and the wall on the right is covered with all kinds of torture instruments, which are more complete than those of the Criminal Department and the Criminal Division.

Looking ahead again, what caught my eye was a wooden cross, on which was tied a person with iron cables, the weather was still a little cold in March, but the man was only wearing a single coat, as if he had been severely punished, the flesh and blood on his body were blurred, and the plain single clothes had long been unable to see the original color.

"Come on—fence off the Longchen Palace, and an assassin has broken into the Longchen Palace—"

"Eight hundred miles to expedite the emperor-"

"Send people to Ci'an Palace and Yijing Palace to protect the safety of the Empress Dowager and Concubine An-"

......

Suddenly, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside Longchen Palace, followed by the sound of the forbidden army's report and order, listening to more and more people coming to Longchen Palace, Xiao Yi and Mu Qingchen glanced at each other, and secretly screamed in their hearts.

But at this moment, the person tied to the cross also seemed to hear the movement outside, his body moved slightly, slowly raised his head, and looked at Mu Qingchen, who was dressed in black, with a glimmer of light flashing in his eyes:

"Lou...... Ahem......"

Mu Qingchen was attracted by these two low coughs, turned his head to look, but saw that the person on the cross was looking at him with burning eyes, that face was particularly familiar, it was Tianjizi, who had been imprisoned by Xiao Ling for many days.

Tianjizi wanted to call Mu Qingchen the landlord, but he saw Xiao Yi next to him at the moment he spoke, although he hadn't seen Xiao Yi, but when he saw a living person at first glance, it was difficult to reveal Mu Qingchen's identity, so he attracted Mu Qingchen's attention with a low cough.

Seeing this, Mu Qingchen ignored Xiao Yi, and walked straight forward, making a gesture to cut the iron cable tied to Tianjizi's body.

"And...... Wait, you listen to me first......" Seeing this, Tianjizi shook his head, stopping Mu Qingchen's movements, and then spoke, "Old decay is fast...... No, I know you're coming, and I'm holding my breath just to wait for you to come......"

"Senior, don't speak, I'll get you out. Qingchen said, and then he didn't care about anything anymore, and slashed towards the wooden cross with one palm.

The wooden cross broke in response, and Tianjizi fell down immediately, Qingchen hurriedly caught Tianjizi, slowly supported him, and planned to leave, only to realize that Tianjizi's legs were no longer able to walk.

"It's useless, the emperor has already broken my tendons and tendons, even if I can survive, I can't walk, and I can't create those hidden weapons that I am proud of. Tianjizi said, suddenly put his head to Qingchen's ear, and whispered again, "Landlord...... You remember, the Moon Condensation Court ......"

Qingchen listened attentively, Tianjizi whispered a few words in her ear, and was about to say something, but she heard a tragic whimper from Tianjizi's mouth, and when she turned her head again, she saw Tianjizi spitting blood from her mouth, with a relieved smile on her face, and suddenly lost her breath.

Looking at this sudden scene in front of him, Mu Qingchen's eyes widened, his chest rose and fell, and he was shocked, but he didn't expect that Tianjizi would bite his tongue and commit suicide in order not to affect her.

In the past two months, Xiao Ling must have done everything to Tianjizi, so Tianjizi was tortured to such an inhuman form, and his hands and feet were wasted. And Tianjizi refused to confide in her at all, but insisted on waiting for her to come, just to tell her the last word......

Mu Qingchen knew that Tianjizi was so tormented by Xiao Ling because he was related to the three words "Ye Chengcheng".

It's her! It's because of her!

obviously wants to protect those who are loyal to her in Xingxinglou, and obviously doesn't want anyone to have an accident because of her personal vendetta, but she still affects Tianjizi!

If it weren't for the fact that she wanted to provoke a dispute between Xiao Ling and Xiao Yi, didn't want Xiao Yi to have an accident too early, and took Xiao Yi out of the Hidden Scripture Pavilion, Xiao Ling would not have suspected Ye Tingcheng, Tianjizi would not have been arrested in the palace, and he would not have died innocently!

Senior, don't worry, I have written down this feud......

Qingchen put Tianjizi on the ground and got up slowly, but his eyes never left Tianjizi's face. The look in his eyes was calm, but his heart gradually became cold.
