Chapter 173 (2/2)

She could understand the emotions of the people, but this did not oat for Blue Lotus Cult

More and e swayed e would soon be overthrown by the crowd

At that ti’er would have nowhere to hide

The situation outside was critical, but Yu Linglong was not afraid She had seen scenes greater than this and experienced tierous than this What she had to consider was how toherself be harh it happened so suddenly, she knew very well that the person who exposed her identity as the saint of Blue Lotus Cult was Princess Zhou

She didn’t have tiy of Princess Zhou’s pro at the moment was how to rush out of these excited crowds

She didn’t want to hurt these innocent people They were just being used by others

Suddenly there was a clicking sound fro’er looked outside and said, “Princess, the shaft of the carriage is cracked”

If this continued, the carriage would really be torn apart by the crowd

Yu Linglong was thinking about countere, but did not notice that on the other side of the street, a vigorous horse carrying a pine-green figure was slowly passing by

Seeing the noisy situation here, Gan Lin frowned Just as he was about to ride away, he heard the follower’s surprised voice: “Hey, isn’t that the carriage of the Xu Palace?”

Gan Lin was shocked He iolden bells on its four corners, and it es could only be used by the master of the palace

Lord Xu had not returned froe was…

Gan Lin didn’t think much about it The horsewhip in his hand hit the horse buttocks fiercely and he rushed towards the carriage

At this irl, coe in the crowd, Gan Lin was very worried and couldn’t help but cry out loudly: “Stop! She is not a demon, she is not!”

But his voice was iry screams of everyone, and he couldn’t even hear himself

The crowd pushed and shoved each other His horse couldn’t get in at all Gan Lin pushed and pulled his horse, and squeezed towards the carriage

Linglong, don’t be afraid, I’th ca crowd around hi, the jade crown on his head fell down It was crushed by the crowd, and his brocade robe was torn to pieces There eat and dust all over his body, but he really squeezed into the crowd and reached the side of the carriage

Trying to push away the countless pairs of hands that stretched out to the carriage, Gan Lin clie and shouted desperately: “Stop it!”

No one listened to him, his voice disappeared like water droplets into the sea ary screams, and could not be heard at all

Gan Lin was alone, unable to deal with these angry people at all Thinking of Yu Linglong, he didn’t think e curtain

“Linglong, are you okay?”

Yu Linglong was sitting in the carriage, and only frowned slightly when she saw his embarrassed appearance: “Why are you here?”

Gan Lin said anxiously: “I’ll save you!”

Yu Linglong’s pretty face sank Save her? This kid was really tooGan Lin clied

Most of these people were ordinary people There was no leader In the face of Yu Linglong’s carriage, they only used pushi+ng and yelling to vent their anger and did not take any further action, but they saw Gan Lin crawling first After getting on the carriage, raising the curtain, and revealing the true face of the so-called deh point

Ie like Gan Lin and reached out to grab Yu Linglong They shouted: “Deirl, you ruined my family, I want to kill you!”

Gan Lin was shocked He quickly reached out to touch the man’s hand and shouted: “You ’er obviously did not have the patience of Gan Lin, and she had the mind to explain to people blinded by hatred what her sole purpose was, that is: whoever dared to hurt the princess ’er draw out the short sword in her hand, Yu Linglong i’er turned her head Her face was puzzled and surprised: “Princess!?”

Everyone rushed into the carriage Wouldn’t the princess still refuse to do it? This was not the style of the princess at all!

Yu Linglong lifted her foot and kicked the person who cliently and skillfully, and said in a deep voice, “Do you wantinnocent people!?”

Hearing these words, Ling’er i’s intentions

Yu Linglong had never been a person as good at forbearance, but today facing sosuch a dangerous situation, she had been holding back her hands, not because of her timidity, but because of her identity of Princess Xu

In this sensitive period, if Yu Linglong did so, even if it only hurt one of the people, it would also have a huge impact on Lord Xu The prince was bound to seize thisLord Xu finally lose The people’s minds were completely dissipated

Needless to say, the ambassador behind this incident was likely to be the prince Only he could calculate people’s ’s temperament, the common people would definitely not be bullied Therefore, as Yu Linglong was a deathered hundreds of people and surrounded Yu Linglong’s carriage to provoke trouble In this way, Yu Linglong would be unable to resist, and the prince could use Princess Xu to beat the civilians as an excuse to destroy Lord Xu’s reputation

This was a battle for people’s hearts The enthusiastic people were like a large grassland full of weeds It only took a little spark to ignite a raging fire

Whoever provoked this spark would fail

Therefore, Yu Linglong chose silence and patience

After fighting with the prince for so long, Yu Linglong had already determined the prince’s routine, and because of this, she could not be fooled

It was not easy to hold back one’s te, but tolerance was also an offensive ’er couldn’t help but clench the dagger in her hand She looked atoutside, and her voice couldn’t help but feel a little anxious: “Princess, are we just waiting like this?”

Yu Linglong’s eyes sank, and she answered Ling’er’s words with action

A sudden kick threw Gan Lin froe, and he fell onto the people closest to hied the body of Gan Lin froot a little loose

Yu Linglong seized the opportunity, grabbing the short sword fro it on the horse’s hip

The horse pulling the cart was caught off guard, and after suffering, the people stood up in pain and let out a long, htened horse suddenly exerted its strength and rushed out into the crowd The crowd could not avoid it and were knocked out of the way

Before people could react, the horse had already rushed out of the crowd and galloped on the street

How could a person’s feet catch up with a frightened horse? Seeing the carriage galloping away, the people couldn’t react

It wasn’t until Yu Linglong’s carriage disappeared across the street that they came back to their senses, and suddenly became eventhe tomen, they escaped!?

Soovernirl!”

This sentence reminded everyone, and they io to the officials!”

Gan Lin got up froround in embarrass towards the capitalescape froain

Looking at the crowd going away, Gan Lin stoe: “Go find father—”

After only saying three words, he suddenly stopped Because of the prince’s rebellion, people close to the prince were ordered to stay put, and Master Gan was also placed under house arrest, and he couldn’t do anything at all

Gan Lin gritted his teeth and jerked back on his horse

The entourage hurriedly followed up: “Master, where are we going?”

Gan Lin kicked his horse’s belly and said, “To the palace! I’ to ask my aunt!”

Gan Taifu couldn’t see the eh he knew that the empress was also implicated because of the prince, at this moment, Gan Lin really didn’t knoho be in danger, he must do his best to protect her!

…

The carriage rushed out of the crowd and ran out of the city quickly Yu Linglong and Ling’er had to try their best to grasp the wooden frae to barely maintain their balance and not to be thrown off by the rushi+ng carriage

At so heavily, too tired to stand up

The carriage finally stopped It was already far away from the capital, surrounded by dense woods, and they couldn’t see the outside situation

Linger quickly got out of the car and reached out to help Yu Linglong: “Princess, after you—”

Before she finished speaking, a whistle suddenly sounded in the woods, and then, there were countless rustling sounds from the trees that were silent just now, and they quickly approached the was taken aback The hand that had just been placed in Ling’er’s hand ie She looked up and saw countless figures flashi+ng in the dense leaves, encircling the looked down at the exhausted and drew her blood-stained dagger on the horse’s buttocks The horse convulsed with pain and subconsciously wanted to struggle to get up

Before the horse stood up fro arro out of the bushes and shot straight into the horse’s head The seriously injured horse fell on the ground without a grunt

Yu Linglong’s heart tightened The enemy actually had an archer!

She ie, the curtain was lowered, and another cluster of arrows followed closely, nailing to the shaft of the carriage they were standing on, and the tail of the arroas trehtly, which made them shudder

They were in the wilderness, and the horse pulling the cart died again There were only two of the’er’s skills were superb, she was still pale with fright at the situation in front of her Yu Linglong stood up in the carriage without saying a word, blocking the door, and she pulled Ling’er and sat in the e as far as possible froe fro the carriage and dinged on the carriage

The wooden wall of this carriage was thick, but nu’er were sitting tightly in the carriage, surrounded by densely shi+ning arrows, e

With a clang, a sharp arrow ca’s shoulder and flew past, and plunged straight into the wooden wall behind the car

Ling’er pulled out the arrow and stood up aardly: “Princess, I a’er back and said in a deep voice, “Now is not the ti arrow in her hand, and her voice changed anxiously: “Princess, shall we just wait like this? If this goes on, the carriage will sooner or later—”

Ling’er stopped talking, but she couldn’t understand what she e like this, just waiting to die

Yu Linglong listened to the movement outside and said, “Sooner or later, their arroill finish shooting”

This word rerabbed the arrow in his hand and pressed his lips tightly

Yu Linglong took the arrow from her hand and observed it carefully The arroell-crafted and sharp Although there was no sign, Yu Linglong could tell at a glance that it was an arrow overnment

This also confirmed her suspicion that the person who chased them was indeed sent by the prince

It seeht that the prince was just trying to instigate the people to surround her carriage, but now it seelong did not harm the innocent people, then she could only choose to escape the siege of the people and take shelter teed long had stopped, he i’s skill ell known, and there was a ’er around her The prince was afraid that they would escape, so he arranged for many archers to shoot theratory locusts Even if Yu Linglong and Ling’er had two pairs of wings, they couldn’t escape at all

More andthe walls of the carriage Although Yu Linglong was bold and cal’er’s hand

She didn’t know the situation outside If the prince really arranged enough archers, then once the carriage was split by an arrow, she and Ling’er would no longer have a hiding place

At some point, the rain of arrows finally decreased, and the surrounding silence returned

Yu Linglong covered Ling’er’s mouth and motioned to her not to speak, while she listened carefully to the surrounding movement

The archer’s arrows shouldn’t have been shot out The enemy may just want to check whether the two of the, as if they had been shot to death

If this was the case, soon soe, and then they would have a chance to escape

Sure enough, as expected by Yu Linglong, there was a sound of curious footsteps in the bushes, apparently walking towards the carriage

Yu Linglong felt it was a big enemy, and couldn’t help but clench the short sword in her hand She listened to the movement outside with all her concentration, ready to make athe carriage and saw a hand stretched out fro the door aside to see as inside the carriage

Just after the door was pushed aside, Yu Linglong stabbed her dagger quickly, and the person outside i could see where the injury was, she heard the arrow rain becoain

The person who pushed the wood awaywho hurt him, but his companion, who mercilessly shot a sharp arrow into his body

Yu Linglong’s heart sank She wanted to hold that person as a hostage or shi+eld to block the ratory locust-like arrows, but now it seemed that those people wanted their own lives, even if they sacrificed other’s lives

If so, it would be even more difficult to escape

What was more terrible was that the wood at the door was pushed open by the man, and now the door was co arrows

At this critical juncture, a huge co’er could react, a figure fell froe, i arrows

Yu Linglong and Ling’er looked at each other Before saying anything, they heard the screaure after another fell froe, but within a short tie door was blocked by dead bodies It i’er boldly looked out froure flying quickly in the air, and heard Ling’er’s surprised cry: “Brother Feng, is that you!?”

Yu Linglong frowned Feng Xuanyuan? Why was he here?

However, this was obviously not the ti Xuanyuan’s sudden arrival attracted e were obviouslyarrows in the air, all directed at Feng Xuanyuan’s figure

Feng Xuanyuan was dexterous Even though he was in a rain of arrows, he still dexterously avoided the arrow clusters that were shot at him From time to time, he pulled out the archers hidden in the bushes and threw the

Seeing that Feng Xuanyuan was alone, Ling’er turned her head and said to Yu Linglong: “Princess, I’ll go out and help Brother Feng”

Yu Linglong took a deep look at Ling’er, then paused before nodding her head and agreeing: “Be careful”

Ling’er replied, then pushed a few corpses away and flew out

As soon as Ling’er went out, there were a fewforced to hide in the carriage for so long fro’er was obviously suffocated She killed several archers in a blink of an eye

Although there were two ’er, there were hundreds of archers sent by the prince Even if Feng Xuanyuan and Ling’er could kill ten, they still could not completely block the ene towards the sky, continuously firing arrows that couldn’t catch up with Feng Xuanyuan and Ling’er in vain, soe!”

The archers immediately woke up, and one after another they ai as they co, they could retreat There was no need to play hide-and-seek with Feng Xuanyuan and Ling’er

Seeing a large cluster of arrows flying towards the dilapidated carriage, Ling’er shouted and subconsciously fleards the carriage, as if she wanted to block the lightning-fast arroith her body

It was said that it was too late Before Ling’er’s figure landed on the carriage, Feng Xuanyuan suddenly ju a few flying arrows

With just such a ap, and a sharp arro out unexpectedly and deeply pierced Feng Xuanyuan’s chest

Feng Xuanyuan let out a e, he drew a long arrow froe He waved back without looking, and a miserable sound suddenly sounded in the woods, apparently stabbed by an arrow

When Ling’er saw the arrow on Feng Xuanyuan’s body, she suddenly exclai Xuanyuan into the carriage, followed by herself, and hurriedly blocked the door of the car with the corpse

In the carriage, Ling’er looked at the arrow on Feng Xuanyuan with tears in her eyes She stretched out her hand to pull it out, but she really didn’t dare She burst into tears: “Brother Feng, what can I do with this…”

Feng Xuanyuan didn’t seem to notice the injuries on his body at all Froht stayed on Yu Linglong’s body, and he did not leave for a lanced at hi Xuanyuan paused before saying, “I heard you were in danger”

Yu Linglong looked away No uess the trap the prince had set for her That was to say, Feng Xuanyuan heard that the people knew about her identity as the Blue Lotus Saint and wanted to attack her Feng Xuanyuan followed her all the way to the siege, but unfortunately fell into the circle of archers with the Xuanyuan’s lips evoked a familiar evil smile, and he whispered: “Yu’er, if it weren’t for this, I wouldn’t have seen you”

Yu Linglong frowned slightly Feng Xuanyuan was still thinking about this ’er was extre, what do you think, isn’t it painful? You… why are you so stupid…oh…”

Feng Xuanyuan slanced at Ling’er and sighed: “Silly girl, why are you crying? I won’t die, your princess…” he coughed, “…will not die……”

Perhaps he spoke too quickly Feng Xuanyuan coughed abruptly, and with the violent coughing sound, a trickle of blood ran fro on his pale face

Yu Linglong only glanced at it and knew that he had hurt his lungs She couldn’t help but frown slightly, and said, “Don’t talk any your body”

It was just a cold word, but Feng Xuanyuan suddenly raised his eyes to look at her, with an unconcealable surprise in his eyes: “Yu’er, do you care aboutlistened carefully to the movement outside Her face was cold, and she didn’t pay attention to Feng Xuanyuan at all

The look in Feng Xuanyuan’s eyes gradually dimmed, and a helpless, bitter smile appeared at the corner of his ive lance at hiive There has never been any relationshi+p between you anddeeply at her expressionless pretty face, Feng Xuanyuan’s voice gradually lowered: “Yes… Fro”

Even he hi-like beautiful woman in front of him always affected his heart With a look in her eyes and a sentence, he was defeated

But she belonged to someone else

In her eyes, he was just an irrelevant person after all

Feng Xuanyuan’s voice became lower and lower, and with every word he said, the blood in his ush out

“But Yu’er, I always can’t control s for you Maybe only in this way, you ’er supported Feng Xuanyuan’s slowly falling body, crying to wipe the blood fro, don’t… don’t say anyXuanyuan didn’t seem to hear her words She still said to herself: “So to stay by ive up my identity as the leader and be an ordinary person… Maybe only in this way, I will not think about the past and the future I won’t have so many worries, and I can protect you like him… Heh, he protects you so well, even if I want to do so, I don’t have a chance… If not today…”

Yu Linglong suddenly stretched out her hand to cover Feng Xuanyuan’s gray lips

This actionXuanyuan struggled to lift his upper body but was pushed down by Yu Linglong Yu Linglong listened to the outside sounds vigilantly, and said in a deep voice: “Don’t speak!”

There was still a burst of arrows outside the carriage, and the carriage that had been shot to pieces was already cruht crack anytime and anywhere, but in the sound of these swish arrows and the cracking of wood, there was so rapidly

It was the rapid sound of horseshoes, the shouts of soldiers, swept over with a wind-like whistling

Ling’er’s face with teardrops suddenly appeared in huge ecstasy: “Princess, so army came in an instant, and they could hear the crisp sound of the trees being stepped on, and the crisp sound of the weapons being smashed The arrow rain outside suddenly became sparsely scattered Instead, it was the sound of the archers fleeing

The well-trained soldiers ruthlessly chased down the archers to death like they were cutting etables A faer with his previous cal the call of this voice, Yu Linglong stood up quickly, kicked the corpse away froe

Before she could settle down, a black figure fleiftly fro a lost treasure

The familiar mint scent came to her nose, and his worried voice was in her ears: “I orried that I would be late…How are you, are you injured?”

She subconsciously held Lord Xu’s waist Yu Linglong’s nerves were tense for a long time, and they finally relaxed the moment she saw him

“I’m fine, I’m fine”

She knew that with hi raised her eyes to look around, and saw that the surrounding trees were scattered all over The grass was full of blood and corpses lying on the ground Bows and arroere scattered everywhere, and several reuards were chasing

Yu Linglong leaned on Lord Xu’s chest and said in a low voice, “Why are you here?”

Lord Xu’s handsoer: “The dark guard’s neas sent late When I found out that the prince secretlyto disadvantage you… Fortunately, you are fine”

The big hand holding her tightly, Lord Xu seeotten that there were countless subordinates around hied her in his arms, and carefully looked at her face: “Are you scared? Blae ’s heart She leaned in the arood that you’re here”

At this tie, and carried Feng Xuanyuan out of the carriage

Seeing Feng Xuanyuan, Lord Xu’s sharp eyebrorinkled slightly, and his thin lips suddenly beca Xuanyuan stroked his chest with one hand and leaned against the carriage with the other, staring at Lord Xu coldly

Feng Xuanyuan faintly met Lord Xu’s murderous eyes, with a wicked smile on the corners of his lips, and whispered: “This ti felt that Lord Xu held her hand tighter, and the atmosphere that had just becoain

Lord Xu said in a deep voice, “This is the last tiaze slowly shi+fted to Yu Linglong’s body His voice floated in the forest wind, sounding so desperate

“Yu’er, you won’t co replied decisively: “Yes You should not have this wishful thinking!”

Lord Xu raised his sharp eyebrows and looked at Feng Xuanyuan’s inky eyes full of anger: “Feng Xuanyuan, haven’t you har as I’ain!”

Finally, he glanced at the frosty Yu Linglong Feng Xuanyuan s’er’s hand away, slowly turned around, and walked away

Ling’er stared at Feng Xuanyuan’s back with tears in her eyes, but she suddenly wiped away the tears, as if she was afraid that the tears would blur her vision towards Feng Xuanyuan

It wasn’t until Feng Xuanyuan staggered to the edge of the woods that Ling’er seemed to have made up her

“Princess, princess… I’ and stopping, Yu Linglong faintly guessed so’er lowered her head, as if she didn’t dare to look at Yu Linglong’s eyes, she whispered: “Princess, Brother Feng was seriously injured, and I a will happen to him…”

She talked faster and faster, as if she was afraid that Yu Linglong would interrupt her, she said hurriedly: “Please, letlooked at Ling’er’s sad expression and nodded gently: “Okay, you can go”

As if she didn’t believe her ears, Ling’er suddenly raised her head and looked at Yu Linglong: “Princess,said: “I understand If you want to, you can always follow hi’er bit her lip and bowed her head deeply, with a cry in her voice: “Princess, I along cast her gaze into the distance Outside the forest, Feng Xuanyuan’s figure appeared from time to time

“Go Quickly”

Finally, she bowed her head to Yu Linglong Ling’er stood up and chased in the direction Feng Xuanyuan was leaving

Looking at the bird-like figure of Ling’er, Yu Linglong sighed slightly

If Feng Xuanyuan could

Lord Xu, who had been silent for a long tiently embraced her shoulders, and said: “They will be fine, don’t worry”

Yu Linglong retracted her thoughts and said in a low voice, “I wonder…what’s going on in the capital now?”

Thinking of the prince, Lord Xu’s handsoer, and he said: “This time, he is determined not to escape!”

If it was said that Lord Xu had always adopted a gentle policy towards the prince, then this ti had touched his botto for him would be a storm

…

Gan Lin knelt outside the hall for ed the head eunuch, the eunuch said the same words: “The emperor has a decree The e taken care of”

After being rejected countless times, Gan Lin had an unknown pre iuessed correctly At thisPalace, which had been deserted forthat had been in the dust forrevealed

Concubine Wu Zhao wore a moon-white brocade dress, with only two plain silver hairpins on her head, and noher look very helpless and pitiful At this round Her delicate shoulders tre her face: “…E on The concubine just thought that she hadn’t seen the ereet the empress, and who knew that when the ehtened and talked nonsense… Eed, and the concubine didn’t even have time to talk to the eround and cried very pitifully The elanced at the i beside him The imperial physician hurriedly said: “Dear e convulsions for a while, and I have given her a prescription She will take the medicine and rest for a few days and she will be well”

There was no expression on the e to aat the emperor’s face, Concubine Wu Zhao walked forward and whispered: “E to say I don’t knohether to say it or not…”

The emperor looked at Concubine Wu Zhao and said in a deep voice, “Speak!”

Concubine Wu Zhao whispered: “After the es, like she wanted to kill you, and not only that, but her sons will kill your sons…E nonsense after being frightened, but I was really a little scared…”

Seeing the emperor’s frown, Concubine Wu Zhao took out her kerchief and wiped her face, and said in a hness…Oh no, the eldest prince, the eldest prince, the concubines, and other sisters are all I were very worried The concubine watched the prince grow up, but I did not expect hi I was afraid that the prince would act on other princes…”

Concubine Wu Zhao seehtened as she talked She stretched her hand to grab the hem of his robe and said in a sad voice: “Emperor! Lord Qi and I only have you Please, emperor, protect me and my son and the other princes!”

The e all the people who are waiting for the empress!”

Concubine Wu Zhao lowered her head in fear, hiding the joy in her eyes

As long as the emperor’s suspicion was aroused, then the eht push, she could be completely pushed off the empress’s throne!

Several court ladies and eunuchs walked in, bowed their heads, fell on their knees together, and said while tre live the emperor”

The e Palace, with a severe chill: “What did the e to kill this ti the stern voice of the emperor, the round and did not dare to lift their heads: “We don’t know, please forgive us!”

Concubine Wu Zhao rolled her eyes, and suddenly burst into tears, crying on the ground: “Emperor! You don’t have to ask any more I know that the empress has always disliked me This time, the empress is sick and is also my victiry any Concubine Wu Zhao’s ry He patted the arrily: “She dared to pretend to be sick behind closed doors? Nonsense! Who do you want to tell? I want to see what else she can do to harm people!”

The emperor was furious, and everyone in the palace hurriedly knelt down, only to hear the emperor say: “Coate her ry, a ive me, emperor! The empress is really sick and can’t bear it! Emperor—”

Concubine Wu Zhao irily: “Bold! How dare you not even listen to the ee!?”

The implication of these words was very obvious This maid helped the empress to speak, and even dared to refute the e on the empress’s power

The ain: “Concubine Zhao, I a the emperor to be merciful, wait for the empress to feel better, and then ask the eround Gurgling blood flowed out, and the ht these days, she has lost a lot of weight, and her body has completely collapsed She really can’t stand the eation…”

Concubine Wu Zhao turned to the e to wipe the corners of her eyes, and said in a sad voice: “Emperor, the concubine also knows that he should not provoke the empress now, but if you don’t ask about it, the concubine can’t let go… It’s nothing, I’ with theret it!”

Seeing the appearance of Concubine Wu Zhao fanning the flaritted her teeth and said: “Emperor, Concubine Zhao, if it is only because of this, the emperor and Concubine Zhao don’t have to worry about it The person mentioned by the empress is not Concubine Zhao and Prince Qi”

Concubine Wu Zhao irabbed the handle in the words and asked, “Who are you talking about?”

Even if it wasn’t to kill Concubine Zhao and Prince Qi, the emperor still had seven other princes Noto kill, they were all connected

Thedesperately, as if she didn’t dare to say anything or she would be killed

He re about in the capital, and the empress was not honest in the hareuts With a wave of his sleeve, the tea cup on the table suddenly fell

“Tellto kill!”

The , and said hurriedly: “This…this…”

Seeing the maid still didn’t dare to speak, the e out and beat her to death with a stick!”

The guards outside the palace gate agreed in unison, and they went into the hall to pull the maid The ive me, emperor! I’ll say it, I’ll say it!”

The euards put down the : “I beg the emperor to pardon my death…”

She couldn’t hear the emperor’s promise, but the maid didn’t dare not to say it, she said quickly: “The person who the e…and Lord Xu…”

The eed: “What did you say?”

The et up, so Concubine Zhao ca that the eht that she was sick, so she went to the bedside to visit her personally In fact…in fact…”

The maid sed hard, and continued: “In fact, the eht it was the ihtened like this”

The emperor suppressed the excitement and asked in a deep voice, “Why is she afraid of Concubine Ling, say it!”

Theto look at the ely said: “When the imperial concubine was jealous of the harem At that time, the disease was in the capital The e department to take the old clothes of the people who died of the plague and secretly stuff them with the clothes of the senior concubine After a while, the senior concubine becaue The empress used this as an excuse to seal the senior concubine’s residence and forbid visitors, let alone the imperial concubine and the ehtened as he heard it He stood up quickly, kicked the case in front of hirily: “This poisonous woman!”

Concubine Wu Zhao hurriedly knelt down and cried: “Ery!”

She couldn’t help wiping her tears and said in a mournful voice: “I didn’t expect that the concubine was so unreliable… At first, I was also surprised Why did the concubine never go out of the palace and contract the plague? I didn’t expect it to be…Oh…sister concubine, you died so miserably…”

For the emperor who just learned the truth, the cries of Concubine Wu Zhao were no different than a catalyst The always cale, and shouted: “Co to banish this poisonous wo these words, Concubine Wu Zhao’s heart was filled with great joy, but on the surface, she cried more miserably: “Emperor, you have to think twice…”

The erily: “Think twice? Think twice? My concubine and prince will be killed by her!”

Concubine Wu Zhao pretended not to dare to say anyround and wept in sorrow

In the inner palace, the e to the noise outside

Really, was she going to be a dead end?

Her son became a waste prince and was conquered by the emperor and Lord Xu, and in the harem, she would also become a waste

She seemed to have seen her end In the near future, her son would be captured by Lord Xu, and she would also be guilty of this In banishment, she has only two choices: poison or a noose

There was a bitter smile on her pale face She had the honor of a lifeti to return to the loess after all

Gently closing her eyes, she said in a voice that only she could hear: “Ling Qinghe, the e you This time, are you happy?”

Outside the palace, the voice of the emperor and the cries of Concubine Wu Zhao and others see sleep

After a lifetio of them at this moment

The truth that had been hidden for ht not be a relief

…

At this moe of death, and he was being overwhelmed by the situation in front of hian to attack without warning The prince’s ar soldiers had already lost their vigilance under the situation where Lord Xu had been standing still for a long tiuards in one day and launched an attack on Chaoyanguard and was unable to become an army in less than half a day Under the protection of a dozen personal guards, the prince disguised himself as a commoner and fled the capital hastily

In the hot summer, the prince and others fled for more than a dozenthat there were no chasing soldiers behind, they stopped and took a rest at a tea stand on the side of the road

A rag was placed on the bauards sat on a dilapidated low stool and drank extre

But the few rural scholars sitting on the table next door were shaking their fans and talking freely about state affairs Of course, the prince’s rebellion was a hot topic nowadays

“…How good is the emperor’s treatment of the prince? The reward for the prince is the first prize for any good deeds In the southern riot that year, General Zhenyuan quelled the rebellion The prince had neither money nor effort, but the emperor said General Zhenyuan was recommended by the prince General Zhenyuan’s meritorious service is the prince’s contribution and the prince was rewarded with a full one hundred thousand taels of gold! But now, you see, the prince actually has to fight against hirate!”

“You don’t understand this, to spoil a child is to kill a child The erow his appetite h, but the emperor’s country is still needed!”

Several scholars nodded and sighed: “It’s really not enough!”

Another said: “A good prince doesn’t do it, so he has to rebel Does this guy knoar is called? I heard that Prince Xu only used a little force to defeat the prince Froood battle!”

A scholar hurriedly said: “Tell me, when this prince is deposed, ill be the nen prince?”

Sohed and said, “Does this need to be asked? It hness The emperor has treated Lord Xu very well in recent years This tiainst hireat if it was Prince Xu Prince Xu loves the people like a son, but he doesn’t want to be two-faced like the prince!”

“This ti for us people!”

These scholars spoke happily, scolding the crown prince indefinitely, and holding Lord Xu like a phoenix in the sky It was obviously a joyful occasion

The prince’s guards couldn’t hold back, and stood up aardly: “Your Royal Highness, go down and slaughter these ignorant people!”

Glancing at the gray-faced prince, Daoist Jing on the side yelled in a low voice, “Sit down!”

The guard grabbed the hilt of the knife in his hand and sat down angrily

Although he was fleeing, Daoist Jing still wore robes and appeared calm and relaxed He whispered to the prince: “In the previous Kang-Qian rebellion, tens of thousands of soldiers forced emperor Wu to abdicate and he escaped the capital with two little eunuchs…”

Speaking of the past, the prince’s eyescontinued: “When Emperor Wu was at his worst, he couldn’t even fill his stoer, but in the end, he still achieved hegehness, the te Until the day he takes the throne, if you think of today’s difficulties, you will definitely feel that this is a test froh the ages!”

Hearing the words of Daoist Jingement, the prince took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: “Thank you, Daoist, I will do my best to make a comeback!”

Even if he was the traitor that everyone spoke up, and even if he was an unscrupulous rebellious son, as long as he could get onto the throne, these histories would be rewritten by hireat cause, praise his fortitude, and he would be faenerations to come!

And he knew that once he walked up this road, he could never look back He could either succeed or die This was the price paid to be an euard looked in the direction behind hihness, it looks like so up”

The prince stood up and said, “Go!”

Everyone got on their horses, raised their whips, and the road suddenly becaan their next escape

No one noticed that the Daoist Jinge-shaped sy after, a group of people in black riding dark horses galloped over When they saw the mark on the shelf, someone immediately said, “Commander, there is a mark here”

The leader looked up at the sky, then at the panic-stricken shopkeeper, and raised his whip towards the setting sun

“Chase them!”

Hundreds of people in black chased in the direction of the prince’s escape like a storht, and disappeared in a flash, leaving a few scholars and the shopkeeper looking at each other

Who were these people and why did they look so terrible? Was it possible for those ere chased by theht sky seemed to have been splashed with ink, and it was so dark that it was disturbing There were no stars in the sky, and the mountains and forests were full of dark and unknown shadohich made weird calls from time to time

The prince and his party were exhausted and walked towards the mountain road The et off their horses, trying to identify the direction in the dark and climb up desperately

Even they themselves didn’t knoas their destination

When he walked to flat ground with slightly slower terrain, Daoist Jinght It won’t be too late to leave toth, and only nodded, and took the lead to sit down

On the opposite side was the endless night, and a guard tentatively threw a stone over there, but there was a rustling rolling sound, from near to far as if it had fallen into a deep place

Daoist Jing said in a deep voice, “Be careful, everyone, there is a cliff over there”

The croas horrified and shocked, and couldn’t help but leaned in the direction of the ht was cold on thesoldiers and did not dare to set a fire

The prince was sitting alone on a rock, thinking about so distributed dry food a the crowd, and finally walked to the prince and handed hihness, have so to eat”

The prince took the dry food, and based on the feeling in his hand, he knew that it was a dry and hard cake He had no appetite and couldn’t eat any the dry food in his hand, the prince’s eyes looked even bleaker in the dark night He began to miss the old life of luxury, and even for a moment, he doubted the purpose of his rebellion He was a distinguished prince, so what if he didn’t become emperor? How could it be that he was in the cold wind on a darksuch hard-to-s pancakes!

But the next moment, he immediately denied his idea He chose this path himself, so he must bear the consequences

What’s more, before the lasthiht the crude cake in his hand close to his , he heard an exclauards

The prince looked up but found that at soathered around theures see chill

“Who’s there!?” The cake in the hands of the prince suddenly fell to the ground He stood up quickly and subconsciously grabbed the Daoist Jing beside hi was his greatest support

But he grabbed at nothing and didn’t knohen the Daoist Jing left him and disappeared into the darkness

The prince’s hands were left e in the air Suddenly, there was a loneliness in his heart that he had never felt before

Someone struck a match, lit a torch, and the wind on the cliff whizzed past, and the prince finally saw the people who caure in the black robe seerated into the darkness, with only a handso at hi, you are finally here”

At the moment when he saw Lord Xu, the prince’s heart calht had ht in his mind turned out to be: He never had to run away

Lord Xu took his secret guards and took a step closer to hio now”

The prince smiled bitterly and took a few steps forward: “Okay Take me to see the father, and I will personally appeal to him”

In the darkness, Lord Xu looked at him quietly but did not answer his words

An unknown premonition suddenly rose in the prince’s heart He suddenly increased his tone and said, “Why, don’t you dare?”

Under the fire, Lord Xu’s eyes were piercing, and he looked at the prince steadily

“You are not qualified”

Hearing these extres suddenly softened

He was not qualified?

What did Lord Xu’s words mean? Did they ain, or was he not qualified to live anymore?

Lord Xu shook the edict in his hand and said in a deep voice: “The emperor has an order Anyone who sees the prince and his party will kill hi of weakness in the prince’s legs beca hiround, barely supporting his body

“Impossible…impossible! It must be you who preached the imperial decree! Father cannot killcondescendingly at the prince’s desperate and horrified face, Lord Xu said coldly: “You are no longer the prince, and father no longer recognizes you as his son Your current identity is just a chaotic party, a traitor, and a person worthy of punishround with a face full of disbelief How could it be possible that father loved him so much, and how could he order soht that he would have such a day He never thought that he would fail, and he never thought that he would be given death after failure He was the crown prince, the eldest son of the emperor, and the prince of benevolence and virtue to the people forinto the sky How could he die here!?

Looking up at Lord Xu, as approaching hied: “Ninth Brother…take me to see father I don’t want to die…You were always kind, you won’t kill ht?”

He sent people to assassinate Lord Xu so many times without any resistance This time his life fell in the hands of Lord Xu, and Lord Xu would definitely spare hi down on the prince’s hopeful face, Lord Xu said coldly: “I’ain, and you even tried to take Linglong’s life!”

His voice echoed on the edge of the cliff: “Tell o?!”

The prince shook his head desperately and said pitifully: “Ninth Brother, I proain! Look at ive ivehand and said angrily: “Yu Liehua! You are the prince Even if you die, you should have a little dignity! Look at what you look like now!? What a shame to the e, the prince cried desperately: “I don’t want to die! I won’t die! The Daoist o down in history I will beco his sharp howl, the Daoist Jing walked out from behind Lord Xu and walked in front of the prince

Seeing the Daoist Jing stopped abruptly He pointed his finger at the Daoist Jing, his face was incredulous: “You…you…are you with hiift to the prince, and said loudly: “I forgot to tell you My couard of Lord Xu”

wang Jing?

Hearing this fa, wang Jing! He was one of the guards who followed Lord Xu to Mongolian territory, and he was the most loyal person to Lord Xu!

With his hands clenched into fists, the prince looked up to the sky and s to kill me, no matter what, no ot up froed over the cliff!

No one was surprised that he was struggling to survive the previous moment, but he chose to commit suicide the next moment Lord Xu knew the prince too well In this life, the prince was arrogant and brilliant, but he had plotted with the hearts of the people for h the person he trustedwas tanta the prince and co his spiritual support

There was a scream from far away from the bottom of the mountain, and it finally disappeared into the boundless darkness, leaving only the lingering sound

Looking at the dark night sky, Lord Xu said in a deep voice: “Go back and tell the emperor that the prince killed himself in fear of sin and fell off the cliff with no bones left”

Turning and walking down the cliff, Lord Xu only felt relaxed for a while This long-lasting decisive battle was finally over

At this , that was, he felt like an arrow at hoo home

Home was such a ord It not only represented the war, the exquisite and delicious food but also represented that there was a person waiting for hi posture

He knew that nofor hiue

On an isolated island in the East China Sea, the water was clear and the sand hite, the water was green and theof birds, and the fresh sea breeze was gently blowing in, blowing thousands of colorful blosso a peach blossoolden earrings in her ears tre her water eyes particularly agile

Looking at the huge house in front of her, Yu Linglong’s e it? I didn’t even know at all”

Lord Xu stretched out his hand to push the swing, and said with a smile: “Naturally I couldn’t let you know, otherwise, hoould you co her pink lips Her delicate eyebrows couldn’t hide a sboat I didn’t expect to co surprise After only a few days of staying, she was completely fascinated by the beautiful scenery here and never wanted to leave

Stopping the swing, Lord Xu gently hugged her from behind and whispered in her ear: “How is it, do you like it?”

Yu Linglong closed her eyes, feeling the war on her face, and said softly, “I wish I could live here for the rest of ed her fro: “If you like it, then you will live here for the rest of your life”

She lightly punched Lord Xu on the shoulder, and Yu Linglong smiled and said, “How is that possible? Could it be that you can just let go of things in the capital like this?”

Putting her on a cool stone bench, Lord Xu said: “You don’t know yet, but father has already appointed the fifth brother as the prince”

Yu Linglong was startled and couldn’t help but blurt out, “Why not you?”

Lord Xu smiled faintly: “Because I don’t want to be an e her soft waist, he gently pressed her forehead: “Being an emperor will have a lot of unfreedom, and you will have to accept a concubine… I proed”

Yu Linglong’s heart seemed to be ied Lord Xu behind her, leaned on his shoulders, and said softly: “Well, you won’t be the emperor, and I won’t be the e our fairytale life”

Under the flowering tree, they leaned on each other, and in front of therant petals were scattered on the stone tables and chairs, on their shoulders, and on their clothes It was as perfect as a picture

Plain, warm, happy, beautiful, this was the life they wanted
