Chapter 348 Above Nine Days, How to Ask
An Pingzhi took the dagger handed over by Leng Xuanrong, looked at Leng Xuanrong coldly, and asked in a very cold voice, "Ceng Xuanrong, finally tell me the truth. Did you give me the poison in my father?"
Leng Xuanrong was protected behind her. She frowned and meditated slightly, and then said to An Pingzhi, "The eldest son just said that there is a reason to kill people. Du Yilin, the king of Xiaohan, and your eldest son have a reason to kill. If I, Leng Xuanrong, really killed people, it is definitely not because Leng Xuanrong's bloodthirsty, just because The reason is not what you can know. The death of your father and your family have come to an end today. Isn't it God's will, eldest son?
"God's will? God's will?" An Pingzhi lost his voice and laughed. He held the dagger and stepped back a few steps. His body shook a little. He looked up to the sky and roared loudly, "Is this God's will?"
At this moment, suddenly there was a shout of killing. Zeng Yanliang took Leng Xuanrong's arm and said in a low voice, "We have to get out of here."
Leng Xuanrong looked at An Pingzhi blankly, watched him holding the dagger and walk slowly towards the wooden building. The firelight reflected the slender back, which was so desolate. The snow-white hair was blown up by the wind, which seemed to flash a strange light. This ice-carved snow-shaped prince seemed to be stepping on the smoke cloud and going away with the flames. The flames are enough to devour him all. He will eventually melt and disappear, return to the nine heavens, and then ask how God's will is.
Tears blurred her eyes, and Leng Xuanrong was pulled away from this barren courtyard full of memories of her past and present life.
The dialogue between An Pingzhi and Leng Xuanrong made Zeng Yanliang feel unprecedented uneasiness. He could feel Leng Xuanrong's wavering and her deep sadness and pain, not because of An Pingzhi, nor because of what An Pingzhi said. Zeng Yanliang felt that Leng Xuanrong was so sad and painful because of the collision between these things that happened in front of her and her deep hidden heart.
Zeng Yanliang can't ask why now, and he doesn't even have time to think carefully. He wants to take Leng Xuanrong safely out of the battlefield of the Prime Minister's mansion. When they are safe, they will have plenty of time to be together. At that time, Zeng Yanliang believes that Leng Xuanrong will open his heart to him, and the depression in her heart will definitely be untied.
Zeng Yanliang held Leng Xuanrong's hand tightly. There was too much unbearance and too much pity in his heart. There was too much pain suffered by such a weak woman as Leng Xuanrong. He only hoped that she would no longer be alone in the future.
As soon as the two ran out of the barren courtyard, they saw a group of people running from afar who abandoned their armor and fled in panic. Zeng Yanliang hurriedly took Leng Xuanrong to hide in a secret place, and the group of people only neglected to escape and did not notice them.
Within before these people could run over, Zeng Yanliang heard the sound of armor collision and unique horseshoe in the distance. Zeng Yanliang is most familiar with such a voice. He can hear such a sound echoing in his ears almost every day in the Kirin Camp.
Zeng Yanliang's forehead oozed a cold sweat. Since he became familiar with the people of the Kirin Camp, he has learned a lot about the three royal secret camps from them. Zeng Yanliang did not dare to say that he was completely clear about the people who were close to Zeng Yanliang in the Qilin camp, but every time they did it, it almost made Zeng Yanliang's back chill. And as long as you imagine these people riding on their armored horses to kill the enemy camp, Zeng Yanliang can feel that it doesn't seem to be the breath of the world, and everyone will shudder for it.
The three secret camps of the royal family have no way to distinguish between high and low. Zeng Yanliang only knows that few people in the government and the opposition have been able to know their whereabouts for so many years, and every time they appear, it is an extinct massacre.
recalling the situation when the Qilin camp went to Chaoyang Village, when more than 20,000 private troops were mobilized to Chaoyang Village to save An Pingzhi, but in the end, almost all of the 20,000 people were silently eliminated by the Kirin Camp. At that time, Gu Zhiyi of Qilin Camp did not think much about it. According to Xiao 19 and others, it was only to occupy the Chaoyang Village and rest for a period of time, so he killed the people sent to him.
Although Xiaojii said this somewhat exaggeratedly, Zeng Yanliang knew that Xiaojii was definitely not bragging about anything.
Today, he once again saw the strength of the royal secret camp. He came to the Prime Minister's mansion with Xiao 19 and others and found that An Longyi and others had ambushed heavy troops in the Prime Minister's mansion. Tonight, the one who came to the prime minister's mansion was the prisoner's camp, and the camp was ordered to rush to the palace to escort him. It has taken less than an hour for this prison camp to attack the Prime Minister's mansion. Now they have come to the depths of the Prime Minister's mansion. The soldiers under An Longyi were surrounded in the house. They absolutely had no way to rush out of the prison camp and escape, so those people would definitely fight to the death. However, even so, they were still scattered by the prisoners' camp. The strength of the royal secret camp is really too strong.
Zeng Yanliang couldn't figure out why he had such two powerful secret camps, and the emperor and Du Yilin, the king of Xiaohan, could still make the first assistant prime minister An Longyi arrogant for so many years. He also didn't understand that since Du Yilin had a way to control the Kirin camp through the emperor, why didn't he take all three secret camps in his hands? In this way, maybe An Longyi had already been destroyed by him, and why did Du Yilin risk his life to go to the banquet today and make such a huge disaster?
Just as Zeng Yanliang protected Leng Xuanrong and hid in the corner, the iron horse came like the wind and caught the escaped soldiers not far away in the blink of an eye. After a few screams, a strong smell of blood floated along the wind.
After killing the escaped soldiers, the iron riders turned the horse's head and went straight to Zeng Yanliang and Leng Xuanrong, who were hiding in the corner.
Although the two of them hid secretly, they could not escape the eyes of the iron riders.
Seeing that they were coming towards him, Zeng Yanliang had to dodge out with Leng Xuanrong, and then took out a gold cast waist card from his arms and said loudly, "Zeng Yanliang, the king's own guard, was ordered to take this girl out of the prime minister's mansion."
The iron riders stopped ten steps away from Zeng Yanliang and Leng Xuanrong. As soon as the horses stopped, they suddenly fell into a dead silence.
An iron horse slowly stepped forward, and the man riding on the horse looked at the gold cast waist card in Zeng Yanliang's hand condescendingly, and then stretched out a hand to Zeng Yanliang.
Zeng Yanliang was stunned at first, and then found that the man seemed to want him to get on the horse, and then took him out of the Prime Minister's mansion. Presumably their general has ordered them that anyone around King Xiaohan can save the house.
Zeng Yanliang turned around and looked at Leng Xuanrong. Although there were still tears in the corners of her eyes, her expression had calmed down slightly. He whispered to Leng Xuanrong, "Xuanrong, these people are going to send us out of the Prime Minister's mansion and get on the horse."
Leng Xuanrong nodded slightly and then let go of Zeng Yanliang's hand tightly.
Zeng Yanliang helped Leng Xuanrong get on the iron horse, and then he also got on another iron horse.
"Girl, hurry up."
The man behind him, whose whole body was wrapped in thick armor, made a calm voice, and Leng Xuanrong's body couldn't help shaking. She was not afraid, but couldn't recover for a while. Leng Xuanrong sat sideways on the cold armor of the war horse and clung to the place where the armor bulged from the neck of the war horse. The speed of the war horse seemed to be suppressed to the lowest, but Leng Xuanrong could still hear the wind in his ear.
She looked around and saw that the Prime Minister's mansion was full of fire and corpses. Those light armored guards fell in a pool of blood, and beside them, there seemed to be the bodies of many families and servants dressed in coarse cloth.
Leng Xuanrong's body trembled violently. What would she do if such a thing happened in her previous life? Can she escape? I'm afraid not. Without the protection of Brother Yan Liang, she must have fallen into a pool of blood and must have died.
Her hatred for the Prime Minister's mansion has disappeared with the distant back of Anping just now. Now that she sees these tragic scenes again, Leng Xuanrong doesn't know what else she can do except to hold back tears.
The shouting of killing gradually faded away, but the firelight was still dazzling. Today, at this time, Leng Xuanrong once again understood that she was not the murderous evil spirit mentioned by An Pingzhi. Leng Xuanrong died once and lived again. In the final analysis, she is just an ordinary woman, a weak and cowardly woman.
Her heart beat so fast that she almost broke through her chest. There was a disgusting smell of blood everywhere, and with the bumpy war horses, Leng Xuanrong almost wanted to spit it out. She clenched the bulge of the horse armor, but her body swayed. The man sitting behind her seemed to notice Leng Xuanrong's condition. He stretched out his hand and stabilized Leng Xuanrong's body with the arm with sheepskin gloves and cold armor.
"I can go out soon."
The calm voice sounded in Leng Xuanrong's ear again. Leng Xuanrong nodded vigorously, and the tears from her eyes fell on the sheepskin gloves and slipped down in the blink of an eye.
Leng Xuanrong and Zeng Yanliang were sent to a corner door of the Prime Minister's mansion. The people who sent them and the people surrounding the Prime Minister's mansion explained the situation. Zeng Yanliang took out the waist card given to him by Du Yilin, and the prisoners let them go.
The moment she stepped out of the Prime Minister's mansion, Leng Xuanrong's strength seemed to have been emptied by someone. She stepped forward and her whole body collapsed. Fortunately, Zeng Yanliang stretched out his arm to catch her, and Leng Xuanrong did not fall down.
"Xuanrong..."
Zeng Yanliang hugged Leng Xuanrong worriedly and saw that she couldn't stop crying. She looked extremely haggard, and her heart almost wanted to be crushed.
Leng Xuanrong clenched Zeng Yanliang's clothes and didn't want to let go anymore. She burst into tears and didn't know how long it took her to say a word.
"Brother Yan Liang... let's... go home..."
