Chapter 105 The Fire

In the palace?

Sima Rui's heart trembled when he heard it, and Qin Yunuan's words seemed to echo in his mind. Is it true that Concubine Rong is dead? Is the news sent to him now false?

Sima Rui pulled the letter in Du Sheng's hand, took a quick look, raised his eyebrows and looked at Qin Yunuan. Qin Yunuan suddenly smiled, raised his head slightly, and said very smoothly, "The emperor is terminally ill. If he will march tomorrow, the third prince's great career can be achieved."

After Qin Yunuan finished speaking, she looked back at Sima Rui leisurely. Sima Rui's hand trembled imperceptiblely. The words in this secret letter were not the same as Qin Yunuan said.

"Third prince, do you believe it now?" Qin Yu raised her eyebrows with twelve points of self-confidence.

"It's just a small skill of carving insects." Sima Rui disdained to throw the secret letter aside, "Do you think I will believe it?"

"If the third prince doesn't believe it, he can march tomorrow." Qin Yunuan's tone was a little sarcastic, "I'm afraid, third prince, you dare not."

Sima Rui turned around and ordered the man to close the door and hung an evil smile on his face: "The fierce method is useless to me."

Out of the yard, Du Sheng has been carefully following Sima Rui. Sima Rui looks very unhappy. After all, Concubine Rong is now in a high position and in a deep palace, and he is now just a prince who attempts to rebel. If Concubine Rong defect...

Thinking of this, Sima Rui would rather Concubine Rong die.

"Go on with the order," Sima Rui restrained his eyebrows, "broken Yang Shuyi's antidote."

Later, the maid Ninger came again and added some calming spices to Qin Yunuan. Seeing Qin Yunuan sleeping soundly on the bed, she did not dare to disturb her and gently retreated.

The moonlight sprinkled in from the wide window, and the room was so dark that she couldn't reach out her fingers. Ning'er's sound of closing the door also became extremely clear in the night. At the moment when the door closed, a pair of bright and sharp pupils suddenly flashed in the night. Qin Yunuan opened her eyes, counted the hours, and then slowly closed her eyes. .

In the middle of the night, Sima Rui stayed up all night. He stared at the layout of the palace on the case and marked a big red circle by him at the Zhuque Gate. Thinking of today's Leng Changxi's move to win people's head, Sima Rui felt a little blocked.

Suddenly, there was a noise outside, and Sima Rui's army was strict. If it hadn't happened in the middle of the night, it would never have been so noisy. After putting on a robe, Sima Rui just went out, and Du Sheng ran over and reported: "Third Prince, the room where Princess Ping was imprisoned is on fire."

Sima Rui frowned and worried first, and then thought: "To put out the fire, it's also shown me that it's strict. I'm afraid that this vicious woman sometimes thinks of a way to escape."

Qin Yunuan always makes him unpreventable.

"No, third prince," Du Sheng gasped and said, "It's the southeast wind blowing tonight. Princess Ping's room caught fire and directly burned to the grain and grass barn. Now she can't allocate manpower at all while saving grain and grass."

The cunning rabbit has three caves, not to mention the cunning fox like Sima Rui. This hiding place is only one of the grain and straw warehouses secretly built by Sima Rui. It is very close to the palace, but it is very secluded. It is also the main warehouse that currently provides grain and fod to the 30,000 Jinling army.

"B bitch!" Sima Rui angrily toss the wolf with the tip of the pen stained with cinnabar, and the cinnabar splashed on his face, as red as blood.

The yard where Qin Yunuan was imprisoned was already a blazing fire, and the fire tongue climbed up the eaves, making people dare not approach.

When Sima Rui came, the gate had been burned and deformed, and the granary not far away was also crackling. It was full of high-class refined grain purchased by Sima Rui from Jiangnan before, and he had been waiting for this day.

"What are you looking at? Save me." Sima Rui angrily scolded these maids and soldiers who dared not move forward when they saw the fire.

"The third prince, the fire is so big that I'm afraid the people inside will die early." One of them is a small man.

"Shut up," Sima Rui scolded angrily, "Qin Yunuan's life is mine now. Even if she wants to die, she has to die in my hands. Isn't it a good thing for her to be burned like this, you," Sima Rui pointed to Du Sheng and said, "Go in and save me. If you want to die, you want to see people and see corpses. Qin Yunuan, you want to play tricks. Eye, I'll play with you."

There was a blaze in it, which made the beams of the house tilt. The crackling sound of Liangmu burning made people tremble. No matter how bold he was, he did not dare to rush into the fire. Seeing Sima Rui's eyes as if Du Sheng became more and more murderous, Du Sheng's legs were soft, and he was incontinent and he peed his trousers.

Sima Rui kicked Du Sheng's heart fiercely and scolded, "Useless things." Then he pointed to a person casually and ordered, "Go."

"Third Prince..." The man asked for mercy at that time.

"The third prince acted ruthlessly," suddenly a familiar but strange female voice sounded from behind Sima Rui. Sima Rui frowned and looked back to see Qin Yunuan coming in from the outside of the yard spotless, with a faint smile on his mouth. As soon as he opened his mouth, his words were full of sarcasm: "You let your men go to the fire for you. Hai, die for you. What have you done for your men?

"Catch her!" Sima Rui's eyes narrowed slightly.

The nearby general immediately stepped forward, thinking that Qin Yunuan's thin arms and thin legs were very easy to deal with, and even his weapons were thrown aside. Unexpectedly, he approached three steps, and a few dark darts were shot out in the dark, and several times directly plunged into the arms and wrists of the soldiers. The strength was very strong, as if it had plunged into the bones, revealing only a small number of darts. Blade.

Qin Yu was not damaged at all and paced forward: "What? Who else wants to try it?"

Sima Rui restrained his eyebrows. In just a few hours, such a master protection appeared beside Qin Yunuan. Obviously, she had contacted the outside, but Sima Rui still held a fluke mentality in his heart. As long as Leng Changxi did not come, he was still fearless. If he wanted a master, there were many around him.

Sima Rui retreated, suddenly raised his hand, waved ahead, and immediately jumped down a few men dressed in black short fights from the wall. They stretched out their hands quickly and had excellent light skills. It was Sima Rui who picked them out to be responsible for protecting their own safety.

"Give it to me and catch her alive." Under Sima Rui's order, several people in black moved forward neatly and orderly, placing a dripping array, approaching Qin Yunuan with the momentum of siege. The fire was still spreading. Against the firelight, Qin Yunuan's face was red, but her eyes were still cool, like a pool of autumn water, and she was not surprised.

Just as several people in black wanted to get the sword out of the sheath, a cold light flashed, and only heard the slight sound of the long sword rubbing the scabbard when it came out of the sheath. The next moment, all the people in black remained motionless, and their eyes were deadly condensed on the front companion, rough. Look, there was no injury, but on the neck of the person in front, there was already a thin hair scar, bleeding, and the injured person seemed to be stiff and motionless.

A man in black who had the most feelings for him couldn't help but come forward and gently helped him: "Big brother."

With a bang, just because of this touch, the head of the man in black, who was called the eldest brother, fell directly, hit the ground, and the incision was neat.

Sima Rui's pupils expanded from time to time, except for...

"The third prince is very interested. While fleeing around, he can actually accept so many capable people to serve you." While talking, in the shadow, a figure like a pine and cypress paced out, and his tone was leisurely. If it hadn't been for the long sword in his hand, others would have looked at it, thinking that he was a scholar, not the powerful god of war - Leng Changxi.

"You still found this place." Although Sima Rui was afraid of Leng Changxi's appearance, he was not surprised or afraid. Leng Changxi could find this place in such a short time, which shows that Leng Changxi deserves to be his opponent of Sima Rui.

As Sima Rui said, he walked to Qin Yunuan and took Qin Yunuan's hand intimately. The two looked at each other and had a strong friendship, which undoubtedly greatly stimulated Sima Rui's nerves.

"The cheap one has been taken care of by the third prince for so long, and now it's time to go back with me." Leng Changxi's tone was light, and he turned around and left without hesitation.

"Hight!" Sima Rui shouted, "Come and leave if you want. Leng Changxi, you are too casual."

"Oh?" Leng Changxi turned around leisurely and pointed to the man in black who died tragically. "This is the one who doesn't want me to go. Whoever of you has the same idea as him will end up with him."

"Oh," Si Ma Rui slowly approached and looked into Leng Changxi's eyes and said, "Leng Changxi, you are very smart, but do you know that there is a saying that being smart is mistaken for being smart? It is true that you are very good at using people's psychology. You know that you are suspicious. You just need to cut off the secret letter given to me by Yang Shuyi halfway. You don't need to repair it. Change the content and only tell Qin Yunuan the content. You know that when you say the content of the secret letter from Qin Yunuan's mouth, I will definitely doubt that this method can kill two birds with one stone. First, it can provoke the master-servant relationship between me and Yang Shuyi. Second, it will mislead my judgment of the situation. At first, I dared not guess like this. After all, Qin Yu Nuan is your**. Aren't you afraid? In case I get angry, kill Qin Yunuan or torture her in a more cruel way. Until you appear, I don't know that you are not afraid, but sure to protect her.

Leng Changxi only felt a little surprised by Sima Rui's sudden remarks. As far as Sima Rui is concerned, he will never be such an easy loser.

Sure enough, Sima Rui looked at Leng Changxi and suddenly smiled coldly, and the corners of his slightly raised mouth were full of treachery and pride: "But you are sure to protect her, but you don't seem to be sure that your men will not betray you."

Leng Changxi's eyes narrowed slightly. He had already calculated that there was something wrong with his subordinates, but he did not expect that he would really be used by Sima Rui.

Sima Rui snorted coldly, suddenly took out a dark yellow secret note, threw it at Leng Changxi's feet, and thought about the contents with his head held high: "At three o'clock, the general will set out to save Princess Ping." Then Sima Rui smiled and said, "Leng Changxi, you have been betrayed by your most trusted men."
