Chapter 157 (2/2)
Four killers stood on both sides of the wooden boat and surrounded him. The daggers in their hands glittered cold. Chu Zongge's face relaxed, like a swimming fish running into the bottom of the lake. The killer was stunned and quickly turned over to follow him into the lake and quickly tracked his figure.
A mass of blood gushed out of the lake, like a red flower in full bloom on the water. The blood was more and more mixed by the lake, and gradually rippled. A killer stretched out his head and inquired about the movement on the water, but he didn't see a shadow. The Red Lake rushed into his face, and the fishy smell stimulated him to dive into the bottom of the lake again.
Another killer ”bang” had to get out of the water. He seemed to be held by someone. He struggled with all his hands and feet, and was quickly pulled down the water. Blood floated on the water, reflecting a piece of lake water.
The killer who had just dived put out his head blankly. In the blink of an eye, his two companions had disappeared, and he didn't even detect the shadow of Duanwang. What's the matter and where is another companion.
Someone quickly answered his question. A corpse slowly surfaced and should have drowned alive. On the wooden boat in the distance, there was a young man with elegant clothes. Chu Zongge's white clothes were dyed red. He looked at the last person who survived with a faint smile and said, ”you're lucky. I didn't pick you.”
The killer's whole body was stiff, and he landed on the ship with a leap, staring at him with vigilant eyes.
Chu Zongge leisurely pointed to him, ”what I asked just now, you haven't answered me.”
The killer crushed a mouthful of silver teeth and exuded blood drops from his hand holding the dagger.
Chu Zongge helplessly spread his hand and said with a smile, ”if you don't answer the question, I'm not polite.”
The killer bumped into him like a runaway wild horse. The bloody dagger in his hand stabbed him straight. Chu Zongge lifted his lower body with one leg. He grabbed the hand holding the dagger with both hands and pushed it down. He only heard the crisp sound of bone fracture and the shrill scream.
”Your master underestimated me too much,” Chu Zongge smiled, and the anger in his eyes was extremely frightening. ”Go slowly.”
With the knife in hand, fresh blood flowed on the boat like a surging lake.
Xie Yingmei wandered around the window for a while, frowned and asked, ”what's the matter? I haven't seen Duanwang and his prospective Princess these two days.”
Xuanxiao turned over on the couch, ”what's your hurry? Tomorrow is the wedding. You can see it naturally.”
Xie Yingmei said unhappily, ”you always stay in Zhaoyun hall and don't go out for a walk.”
”When I become a concubine and you leave,” xuanxiao raised a bad smile, ”then I'll go out and wander around every day to see if you're tired.”
”I'm sure I'm not tired. You think it's wonderful. You think the concubine can go out at will.”
”The emperor of the state of Qi is the least close to the harem. Where will he care about me?” xuanxiao turned his eyes. ”There are only two imperial concubines in the harem, one is wan imperial concubine.”
”The other is Ru Guifei. I heard that she is grounded now.”
”Oh, what offended the emperor again,” xuanxiao looked out of the window and saw Xue ronghua's figure. He immediately propped up his upper body and shouted, ”the princess to be is back.”
Xue ronghua heard the voice in the hall and turned to see that Xie Yingmei and xuanxiao were sitting in the room.
”What are you doing in the house with such a good sun?” Xue ronghua stepped into the door and brought the sun into the house. ”You don't go out for a walk, the wind is not cool outside, and there are chrysanthemums to see.”
Xuanxiao said strangely, ”I didn't see Duan Wang and the prospective princess at lunch just now. Where has the princess gone?”
”I went to Princess Wan's Zhongcui palace,” Xue ronghua said with a smile. ”I found her Princess jou Chia. She thanked me.”
”What about the king?” Xie Yingmei said eagerly.
”Duan Wang?” Xue ronghua frowned suspiciously. ”Duan Wang didn't have lunch with you. He should have gone to the emperor.”
”Did the emperor invite Duan Wang?” xuanxiao thought and said, ”let's wait. Maybe Duan Wang will come back in a minute.”
Xue ronghua thought in his heart that Chu Zongge was the only prince of the Qin Dynasty. Meng Qianzhong should not dare to do anything extreme to him for the sake of peace between the two countries, otherwise the two countries will start a bloody storm.
”Xiang... Has Princess Poyang been picked up?” Xue ronghua asked.
Xuanxiao nodded, ”when I just went to see her, it was empty.”
Xue ronghua sighed slightly. It's a blessing for Xiang He to return to Xirong and be with Princess Poyang, but Zhu Tong's affairs have not been made clear to her. I don't know what secret lies in it.
Xuanxiao was lowering his head to pour her tea. Xue ronghua moved in his heart and asked, ”Princess... Do you know a man named Zhu Tong?”
”Who is Zhu Tong?” xuanxiao looked blankly, ”I've just arrived in the state of Qi. How can I know?”
Xue ronghua said awkwardly, ”she's from the state of Qin...”
Xuanxiao laughed, ”I haven't been to the state of Qin at all, and I don't know.”
