Chapter Ninety-One: Mo and the King
Ruri made up her mind to leave the palace with the person she loved, even if it was the end of the earth, she was leaving.
Before leaving, she ran to say goodbye to the streamer, her eyes sparkling, full of anticipation for her future life.
Her eyebrows and eyes were vivid again, as if she was no longer a noble saint of a country, just an ordinary woman who wanted to bravely pursue her love.
Streamer was shocked by their bold adventure, he had never had such a thought, as if the road ahead was blocked by many walls, and he was still struggling to find a way out, but Sister Tong Tianque was no longer obsessed with where the exit was hidden behind the walls, but was ready to go directly over the wall.
Every step is a risk, but he is sincerely happy for Liuli.
When they parted, he asked Sister Ah to wait for a while, rummaged under the bed in the room, and took out a carefully treasured box, which contained nothing valuable, only a book of poems that the female official's aunt had helped him ask for back.
He grabbed his hair and solemnly placed the book of poems in Liuli's hand.
"Sister, I don't have anything to give you, can I give you one of my favorite poetry collections? Although you will live happily with Tianque Wangjun, but if you suddenly miss me one day, just take a look at this poetry collection, and the streamer will always accompany you." ”
It was the best blessing he could think of.
Liuli's eyes were red, and she reached out to hug the streamer tightly with the poetry book, and nodded seriously.
She couldn't leave with the streamer, she couldn't open her mouth, but the streamer sensibly helped her say it herself.
The next night, just after the fifth watch of the night watch in the palace, the streamer crept up from the bed, afraid of waking up the female aunt who was guarding his sleep in the outer room of the dormitory, so he sneaked out of the dormitory directly with bare feet.
He wore only a thin undergarment, and in the night he ran barefoot through the cold palace corridor by the moonlight, and the night dew was so heavy that it almost wet his hair, and the faint white vapor he exhaled was imperceptible and soon lost in the deep courtyard.
He wanted to see Ruri leave, just take a look at it from afar.
The Holy Maiden Hall is the highest palace in the royal palace, with an octagonal cornice-like pagoda and a side hall standing tall on each side.
The streamer couldn't enter the temple of the Holy Maiden, so he could only run to the side hall of the temple of the Holy Maiden, secretly pushed the door and ran in, carefully avoiding the dozing female officer of the night watch.
He took it as slowly as he could, climbed the stairs up the top floor, and pushed open the easternmost window, where he could see far away, including the passage leading to the east side door of the palace.
Sister Ah said that they would leave the palace from this palace road to the side door tonight.
The streamer leaned over and looked at the entire palace road repeatedly, the ever-bright lights on both sides were still bright, illuminating the clean and neat bluestone slabs and bricks, but there was no night guard at all, only a carriage was parked near the palace gate, and a dim horse lantern was hung on the side of the car.
He clutched his still pounding heart and breathed a sigh of relief.
That's great!
So that Sister A, they can leave safely!
Unexpectedly, the fierce Prince of Tianqiong still had a way, and really helped Sister Ah and them lure the guards away, and the carriage must have come to pick them up.
As soon as they got out of that palace gate, they could leave far away.
Streamer folded his hands and prayed to the night sky.
Soon, two people appeared hand in hand from the shadows at the end of the palace road, hurriedly running across the palace road, too far away to see clearly, and the streamer could only see the hazy figures of the two people, and the faces could not be seen clearly.
However, he knew that it was Sister Liuli and Tianque Wangjun.
There were only a dozen steps to run to the carriage, and as if he was running with them, Streamer couldn't help but hold his breath and watch them get closer and closer.
Great!
Tianque and Liuli glanced at each other, the joy in their eyes seemed to overflow, and the lantern hanging on the car, the dim light reflected their eyes shining.
They will soon be able to leave the palace as they wish!
Tianque reached out to lift the curtain, saw the person sitting and waiting in the car, and smiled gently: "Tianqiong!
Tianqiong looked at his tightly clasped hands with Liuli, and smiled meaninglessly.
"Hehe, who's to say it's not?"
The heavy night eroded in, the flames in the lantern trembled, and their shadows shook violently, and a bad feeling kept coming up in Liuli's heart, and she seemed to be frightened, and she took half a step back unnaturally.
Tianque thoughtfully stretched out her hand to straighten the cloak on her body, and just wanted to say something, but suddenly a large number of guards rushed in from the palace gate.
The streamer was stuck on the window railing, so frightened that he couldn't speak.
What a situation!
How could there be so many guards all of a sudden!
What can I do?
Tianque's expression changed drastically, and he turned his head to look at Tianqiong, who was still smiling strangely.
"You!"
I have already understood between the calcium carbide and the firelight, this is actually a trap to cross the river and tear down the bridge.
A stack of guards surrounded them, and a commander stepped out.
"Your Highness, what do you have to say when you appear here at such a late hour?"
Liuli's eyes trembled, Fang Cai's freshness instantly retreated, her face turned gray, and she lowered her eyes, as if she had accepted her fate.
She will never be able to escape this palace for the rest of her life.
She opened her mouth with a hint of sadness: "No, no...... The one who plotted the escape was my ......."
Before Liuli finished speaking, Tianque suddenly grabbed her shoulder and wrapped it into his arms, and a sharp knife was directly on Liuli's neck, and his eyes became vicious.
"Yes, it's me, it's me who single-handedly planned to escape! Who rarely wants me to stay here and let you slaughter me? I want to be free! I want to escape! Why, do you think I'm going to run away with this woman? Don't laugh, your holy daughter is just a pawn that can protect me from the palace safely, and whoever wants to take her with him will only drag me back! If any of you dare to block the way of this king out of the palace, don't blame this king for letting your holy daughter bleed!"
His expression was hideous, his eyes were extremely fierce, with the determination of an outlaw, and the knife in his hand was mercilessly placed on the snow-white skin between Liuli's neck, as long as his hand was forced, he could cut through that inch of skin at any time, and everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Tianque.
The guards were in an uproar, who would have thought that the gentle and kind Tianque Wangjun would plot to escape with bad intentions
Captured the saint as a hostage!
The commander is a straight general, he doesn't know what twists and turns, and if he can't get used to it, he can't get used to it, so he immediately angrily drew his sword and pointed at Tianque and scolded: "Tianque Jun, you are so bold, you dare to hold His Royal Highness the Holy Maiden hostage!"
Ruri's eyes widened, her body trembled involuntarily, as if she was terrified, and her tears kept pouring up, blurring her vision.
Maybe she doesn't understand, how could Wang Jun, who is gentle and considerate to her on weekdays, suddenly change her face.
She wanted to turn her head to look at Tianque, but she was pressed the shoulder, and she couldn't move.
"Don't move! My knife doesn't have eyes!"
Seeing that the Holy Maiden was innocently kidnapped, the commander was obviously a lot more jealous, waved his hand to signal the restless soldiers to calm down, and admonished him: "Her Royal Highness the Holy Maiden is a golden branch and jade leaf, how can you be so humiliated by you, and you can quickly let go of Her Highness the Holy Maiden, and we can also take you lightly for your escape! Moreover, catching an innocent weak woman as a shield is despised by the people of the southern country! Even bandits and robbers from all over the southern country disdain to do this, how can you, as a prince of a generation, do such a dirty thing!"
Tianque had red eyes, sneered, and did not answer, as if he was bent on holding the holy woman hostage to fight them to the end.
The atmosphere was somewhat heavy and scorching.
Suddenly, he was hit hard in the back, and a crossbow arrow was inserted in his right shoulder, and blood kept gushing out, and at that moment, the knife in Tianque's hand came out of his hand due to pain and rolled to the ground. Seeing the people who helped clearly, the commander was stunned for a moment, and quickly led people forward to restrain Tianque and rescued the holy woman from Tianque's hands.
Tianque turned his head and stared at Tianqiong, who was still sitting leisurely in the carriage, playing with a bow and crossbow in his hand.
Seeing him, Tianqiong said nonchalantly: "Brother, it is a capital crime to flee with the Holy Maiden! Why are you so confused?"
The general sent his subordinates to call a few palace female officials to prepare to send the frightened Holy Maiden back first, but Liuli struggled desperately, with red eyes and wanted to take a look at Tianque, who was covering her injured right shoulder, but Tianque just hung her head indifferently and did not look up at her.
I didn't even want to give her one last look.
The commander felt that Tianque's ignorance was a great disrespect to the saint, and asked the female officials to send the saint away quickly.
The resisting Liuli pulled with the female officer, and the book of poems that she had been carefully putting on her body was torn off.
The poems are turning the pages in mid-air, like a bird with wings.
In the end, he fell heavily to the ground, and the page that the streamer often turned was already a little creased, so he turned back to that page with such a fall.
In black and white, it was written:
Evil!
I want to know you
Longevity.
The mountains have no tombs, and the rivers are exhausted,
Winter thunder shakes summer rain and snow,
Heaven and earth are combined,
Dare to be with the king.
Liuli struggled to see that Tianque did not resist at all, she was extremely obediently caught, her shoulders were already stained red with blood, she suddenly fell to the ground and cried aggrievedly, and several female officials had to set up Liuli together and left in a hurry.
There was only one sentence in Liuli's mind.
Tianque just pressed her shoulder and refused to let her turn back, obviously saying vicious words to outsiders, but gently attached to her ear, and said a gentle choked word.
"Ruri, I'm sorry. ”
