Chapter 52 Kill Halfway
"Whung or not, it's up to you." Suddenly, a shrill voice came from behind Leng Changxi and the eldest princess. Leng Changxi turned his head warily and found that it was not someone else, but Grandpa Meng, who had been working with Jing Yuanchu.
Eunuch Meng has never seen Leng Changxi, but sent someone to inquire before and knew that the one with a silver mask followed by the eldest princess was Leng Changxi, the first general of Daqi, that is, the illegitimate son of Jing Donghua and the eldest princess.
"His martial arts are strong, so be careful." Eunuch Meng ordered several masters who had been ambushed on the wall. Leng Changxi had long noticed that there were many true qi underground currents around him, and probably guessed that there were many masters ambush around him. Roughly, there were two qigong masters, three foreign boxing masters, and one was a sword master. It seems that Jing Yuanchu was This ambush has invited a lot of talents.
Leng Changxi protected the eldest princess behind him, and the coachman waiting at the gate of the palace in the distance was shot by a dart and was immediately killed. Several masters jumped down from the wall. Leng Changxi had subconsciously put his hand in the place where the short dagger was hidden around his waist.
"Eunuch Meng is very interested," Leng Changxi turned his body and provocatively, "Eunuch Meng brought so many masters from the Thirteenth Prince's Mansion to this remote palace to practice?"
"I don't dare to practice." Eunuch Meng took out the pink veil in his arms and wiped the corners of his lips, and his head was slightly "It's just under the master's order to come to catch the assassin."
"Assassin?" Leng Changxi raised the corners of his eyes, "Me?"
Eunuch Meng did not say anything. He retreated and raised his hand forward. At present, the assassin immediately jumped down from the wall, took out his own weapons, and approached Leng Changxi and the eldest princess with a queue of encirclement. Leng Changxi had already held the short dagger in his hand: "I don't want to kill people in the palace. You'd better retreat."
These assassins are not vegetarian. They have never killed anyone for Jing Yuanchu. How can they be intimidated by Leng Changxi's words when they go to the important ministers in the court and the people of the Li people?
Leng Changxi was secretly lucky and confronted the two qigong masters against each other. Suddenly, the two qigong masters reached out and made a tentative gesture.
"This man is very powerful. We are not his opponents." One of the Qigong masters is also the leader of the six assassins.
"Brother, what are you afraid of? We have six."
"I mean, none of the six of us together are his opponents." The leading assassin's heart was cold. He had never seen such a mellow internal force. Such an internal force was not only solid, but also extremely hard. It was like a thousand-year glacier in the far north. It was not a day's work. If it hadn't been for Leng Changxi's youth, he would not have believed that he would have seen such a skill in his lifetime. Descendants.
It seems that the thirteenth prince is doing a hard job this time.
When Grandpa Meng saw that there was no movement here, he urged, "What are you all doing? Your Highness is still waiting for me to go back to work.
"What's wrong with Grandpa Meng?" Suddenly, an enchanting voice came from behind Eunuch Meng. Eunuch suddenly felt cool behind her. The woman's voice was highly recognizable. Just by listening to her sneezing, Eunuch Meng could know accurately that this was the most favored concubine in Xixia Palace today - Concubine Lian.
Leng Changxi looked over and saw a sedan chair carried by 28 people in the distance. Twenty-eight people, according to the rules in the Daqi Palace, only the noble concubine and queen level are qualified to ride. It seems that this person has a very high status in the palace.
Two layers of crimson veil hung from the top of the silver sedan chair, which outlined a woman's figure. From this curvy and graceful shadow alone, it is enough to make people fantasize. Leng Changxi turned his head and looked at the ancestor as soon as he saw the woman. He hurriedly stepped forward and said, "servant I just greeted the Empress Lian, and I don't know why the Empress Lian is so interested in coming to this remote courtyard to relax.
"Oh, you're really bold," he said with a smile, but it was a gust of gloomy wind from this woman. "Where do I want to go? Do I still need to ask you, a slave?"
"I dare not, I dare not." Eunuch Meng hurriedly knelt down, which made Eunuch Meng, who was usually extremely arrogant, so humble. In addition to Jing Yuanchu, he was the lotus concubine. Leng Changxi had an intuition that Eunuch Meng's surprisingly politeness to this lotus concubine was not only because of the identity of the other party.
A white hand like exquisitely carved white jade slowly lifted the curtain of the hanging sedan chair. A delicate face like a lady in the painting was half hidden under this scarlet curtain. A smile made the man fascinated. He is worthy of being the most favored concubine in the palace. Only the emperor deserves such a beautiful woman. .
"Eunuch Meng," the beauty in the sedan chair put down the curtain again after this flash in the pan. "I think they are a woman, a boy with a mask, probably not the assassin in your mouth. I advise you to let it go."
"I don't dare to do this," Grandpa Meng flattered, "This is what Your Highness means. I can't resist."
"I said let it go. This is what I mean. Your Highness, I have my own explanation." Lianfei's attitude is very clear. Leng Changxi was a little surprised. He never knew this Lianfei. Why did Lianfei help them? He never believed that there would be any worldly sympathy in this deep palace. In the palace, there were only eternal interests.
"Isn't it released yet?"
Empa was a little embarrassed. He wink at the little apprentice behind him. The little apprentice immediately left and was ready to report to Jing Yuanchu, and Grandpa Meng said politely: "Since Concubine Lian has spoken, I will naturally listen. You all come back."
Eunuch Meng called several assassins to go back. The leading assassin was also relieved. He didn't even dare to look at Leng Changxi. This man was really terrible.
"Since it's all right, why don't you go?" Concubine Lian leaned back and was extremely leisurely.
"Yes, I'm leaving." Eung Meng hurriedly took people away, and his footsteps were in a hurry. He had to discuss with the thirteenth prince as soon as possible and tell him that the nails he had worked hard to put into the palace and cultivated seemed to begin to be against him.
The tense atmosphere at the entrance of the alley was slightly relaxed, and another strange atmosphere arose spontaneously. Leng Changxi said coldly, "Thank you, Princess Lian..."
"You don't have to thank me," Lianfei seemed a little careless. She saved Leng Changxi as easily as she trampled on ants. "In the palace, there are only eternal benefits. Remember that you owe me, that's enough."
The 28-person sedan chair gradually left along the original road. The eldest princess did not say a word from beginning to end. Leng Changxi gently patted the eldest princess on the shoulder. The carriage out of the palace was still waiting at the end. It didn't matter if there was no coachman. Leng Changxi recognized the way out.
"Yu Nuan is still in the palace." The eldest princess recovered. She always remembered that Qin Yunuan was good to her when she was at a loss, and Qin Yunuan was the wife being married by Leng Changxi Ming. She was also smart and filial. She naturally regarded Qin Yunuan as her own family.
"Naturally, she has a way to go out. Her mother doesn't have to worry about her." Leng Changxi took the eldest princess into the carriage. When the eldest princess sat safely, she turned her head and said, "Since my mother doesn't want to leave Xixia, we won't leave. Where my mother wants, we are, and my son will always be with you."
The wheels of the carriage rolled slowly. At the same time, at Tongming Gate, a carriage with a red mark on the top of the carriage was being inspected by the bodyguard. As soon as the gatekeeper saw the scarlet mark on the top of the carriage, he became humble and even skipped the inspection of the carriage and directly let the carriage pass.
"That's the carriage of the Shun Palace," the leading bodyguard muttered, "but there are a lot of carriages in the Shun Palace today. This is the third one."
In the carriage, Mu Qingyu and Qin Yunuan sat opposite each other. Both of them did not say anything. The atmosphere was a little dignified. Qin Yuwar was weak and almost stag. Mu Qingyu quickly helped Qin Yunuan and asked softly, "Is Mrs. Leng all right?"
Qin Yunuan shook her head: "It's okay. Thank you, princess."
The maid outside immediately scolded the coachman and said, "How do you drive the car? If you hurt the princess, you can take it?"
"Isn't it a villain, but I don't know why there are so many small stones on the road. Why don't we take a long detour?"
"No need," Mu Qingyu glanced at Qin Yunuan. "This is the nearest road back to Shunwangfu. I don't know what's going on. Let's follow the original road."
"Okay, please sit down. There will be bumps along the way." The coachman gave a command and carefully drove the horse around the road full of sharp stones, but there were too many stones, and the carriage still shook violently.
Qin Yunuan looked up at Mu Qingyu. Mu Qingyu's face was full of indifference, firmly leaning against the soft pillow and closing her eyes to refresh her mind.
couldn't help but be curious. Qin Yunuan still asked, "Why does the princess insist on taking this road?" Obviously, this slate road must have been tamped, otherwise how could so many stones be left unattended?
"Whichever way you go is the same," Mu Qingyu opened his eyes. "The other party obviously wants to hurt me. If I change to another land, he must also have an ambush. It's better to return the same way. At least, on my road, he and I are evenly matched."
After Mu Qingyu finished speaking, the sound of fighting and the collision of weapons came from the front. After a while, the sound stopped, and a rapid footsteps were getting closer and closer. Someone gently knocked three times outside the carriage. This is a kind of signal. Mu Qingyu smiled slightly and said to Qin Yunuan: "The obstacle has been After cleaning up, even if he sends many attacks, there are many masters around me. I'm not a soft steamed bun who swallowed his anger.
"The princess 'he' one by one, does the princess know who wants to attack the princess?" Qin Yunuan asked curiously.
Mu Qingyu looked at Qin Yunuan and said, "First, I naturally know who he is. Second, what he wants to kill is not me, but you."
