Chapter 89 (1/2)
”Whew --”
in the dark, a sharp arrow suddenly hit Zhao Huaijin.
He could have escaped, but he had a man to protect on his back. He couldn't dodge for a moment, and was cut by the sharp corner on his left cheek.
It's bleeding.
For the first time in my life, I was forced into a desperate situation.
Zhao Huaijin frowned slightly and quickened his pace.
”Your Majesty, let me down.”
”From this moment on, you are not allowed to speak without my permission.”
Blood slid down the man's chin and dyed his shirt red.
He breathed more and more quickly, and only the fast wind was heard in his ear.
When he fled, Zhao Huaijin accidentally found a small and narrow cave, so he carefully put the man inside and covered the stubble tightly.
He licked his dry, skinny lips. ”Listen, Queen. If I don't come back before dawn, you can leave here by yourself. I have released the signal bomb. It will take a few days for the reinforcements to reach the qingnu river. You should carefully confirm whether their waist ornaments are my Zhao family. Until then, you have to protect yourself. ”
After thinking about it, he pushed his only defensive dagger from the haystack.
Also confiscates, the other party suddenly grabs his hand, picks off the stubble, exposes a pair of black as sandalwood bead's eyes, under the moon night exudes some cold mockery.
”Does your majesty intend to die?” Lin Lang said with a smile, ”do you need to collect a corpse for you?”
”What do you mean? Do you want me to die earlier? ”
He turned to squeeze the other side's delicate wrist, which was unbelievable.
Didn't she know that he used himself as a decoy to expose himself to the assassin's target in order to get her out of danger?
”Why, does your majesty think that my concubines are still attached to your majesty and are reluctant to die?” She gave a low smile, as if in derision.
”Your Majesty is merciless. My father and brother died at your hands In that case, why not use me thoroughly? ”
”Why And protect me? ”
”Oh, my wise majesty, what are you playing with?”
She covered her eyes and her voice grew hoarse.
”Zhao Huaijin, I know that from the beginning to the end, I'm just a chess piece for you to stabilize the court. You don't have to be hypocritical and act like this to protect me, so as not to be misunderstood.”
”it's not a misunderstanding.”
Since childhood, he has been taught that the emperor has no intention. If he does not, he will not move, and if he does not move, he will not be hurt.
Therefore, he was able to deal with the disputes between the court and the court.
No play, no play.
This is the law of the king's existence.
But by the time he found out, his feet were deep in mud.
”It's not a misunderstanding.” He repeated his words clearly.
”I love you, Linlang.”
The girl holding an umbrella on a rainy day is the most ruddy piece of cinnabar in his heart.
It's just him. It's too late.
Some things have been irretrievable.
He looked at each other's face closely, ”if, this time I can come back alive, Linlang, we'll start again, OK?”
Her eyes were red and she didn't speak.
Zhao Huaijin didn't ask for an answer. He only touched her cheek, then covered the hole with stubble, leaving a gap for air.
”Wait for me.”
Wait for me to come back.
He knelt on one knee and kissed her on the forehead through the weeds.
With the cold moonlight, Lin Lang watched people go far away.
Her eyes are deep.
If you die so early, this business is a bit of a loss.
The fingers touch the chin, and the corners of the woman's mouth are slightly hooked.
The next evening, the man came back with injuries.
There was a wound winding to the lower abdomen on the chest. The skin was torn and bone was seen.
”Don't cry. I'm back here, isn't it?”
He held the shivering girl in his arms.
Her hair is scattered and her make-up is not beautiful. Here is red, and there is purple. I don't know where the mountain evil spirits come out and where there is the noble and beautiful amorous feelings.
But he, however, was palpitating.
Qingnu river is a prosperous place, although it is not as prosperous as Kyoto, but in terms of wealth, it is also one of the largest families in the whole country.
And in such places, there are naturally more beggars gathered.
”Ding --”
a copper coin rolled to the man's feet.
Zhao Huaijin slowly raised his eyes and looked coldly at the flower skirt girl standing in front of her.
Bold Obstinate people!
He is a great son of heaven. He is just resting under the eaves for a while, and someone treats him as a beggar! What a shame!The other party was seen by him shy, and scattered a handful of copper money, turned and ran away.
”You...” Stop!
He was angry and turned upside down. Yu Guang caught a glimpse of someone who was skillfully picking up money from his sleeve. His handsome face suddenly turned black. ”What are you doing again?”
”Take the money, your majesty.”
Lin Lang said with a smile, ”so we can get money for our next meal.”
As the Empress Dowager and the protagonist of the ceremony of offering sacrifices to heaven, they were dressed in gorgeous clothes. Unfortunately, there was no silver. The only valuable thing is a pile of exquisite accessories made by the imperial court. However, they dare not accept it.
At present, the assassins are chasing them, and it is not appropriate to reveal their identity. Zhao Huaijin, who came back with injuries, had to endure the discomfort and changed the clothes of two unfortunate men who passed by. Without taking a bath for many days, he looked dirty. No wonder he was mistaken for a Street tramp.
”Nonsense! This is the money given by others to the beggars. What's the standard of you The man frowned and suppressed his anger.
