Half in the river wind, half in the clouds

Jiang Feng's agreement to let Li Longji continue with the wedding was actually a betrayal to Li Longye.

She chose the future emperor according to established history.

She didn't dare tell Li Longye that his true identity was actually the posthumous son of the filial emperor.

He was afraid that he would rise up in rebellion and he would have no way to retreat.

She was also prepared to accept Li Longye's anger and disappointment after his failure.

She could only watch as Li Longye walked into the uncertainty and certainty of fate.

By chance, she finally joined the game and was no longer a spectator a thousand years later.

……

Li Longye was abducted by Princess Taiping.

On the eve of the wedding, men and women were forbidden to meet each other, but he came openly and kissed her passionately.

The female official outside was worried that something might happen, so she went to report to Princess Taiping.

When Princess Taiping arrived in anger, two groups of people were standing outside the door with their heads lowered.

She pushed the door open and saw Li Longye still asking for a kiss in a disorderly and domineering manner. Jiang Feng unexpectedly acted out of character and let him do whatever he wanted regardless of the occasion or the whispers outside.

She was so angry that she took the Ruyi from her dressing table and hit Li Longye on the back.

The two of them stopped.

Before Princess Taiping could start to scold, Li Longye kissed Jiang Feng heavily on the forehead again, and said in a soul-stirring voice: "Ten miles of red makeup, you marry me, you are not allowed to break your promise."

Jiang Feng nodded.

But what she was thinking in her heart was: After tomorrow, if your heart remains unchanged, no matter what the circumstances, whether in Chang'an or Luoyang, even if you are in hardship and frustration, even if you are depressed for the rest of your life, she will follow him firmly.

……

June 6th, the wedding.

The first unexpected change was that Li Dan, who was supposed to appear, did not show up at Princess Taiping's mansion.

The eunuchs in the palace said that Li Dan was unwell, but Princess Taiping did not suspect anything.

The second change was that the auspicious time had passed and Li Longye still did not come to pick up the bride.

Princess Taiping's face turned pale and she sent Xue Chongjian to ask people to check. The direction of Longqingfang was eerily quiet.

After waiting for another half an hour, the wedding procession finally arrived with gongs and drums.

Li Longye agreed to come in person to receive him, but he was temporarily replaced by an official from the Ministry of Rites, and Praise, Demotion and Conferment of Changqing were not included in the list.

The chief and deputy envoys took the imperial edict and gave it a long discussion. No one suspected anything, because according to the etiquette, the king did not need to personally welcome the emperor.

Only Jiang Feng knew that it must be Li Longji who took action.

Princess Taiping personally escorted him to the courtyard.

Jiang Feng was led by Jiang You into the bridal sedan.

What she didn't know was that just as the wedding procession disappeared at the end of the road, a thousand knights surrounded Princess Taiping's mansion.

Close the gates and start killing.

The happy hall turns into the mourning hall.

The wedding procession was accompanied by music and drums, and there were so many people watching that they blocked both sides of the road.

The team passed by Hua Xi Tower, where Jiang Feng and Li Longye had been before, hurting each other and both were in tears.

Here, Guan Shanyun promised to marry her amidst the fireworks.

It was also here that Shen Guxing heard her true words after drinking, and he could not control his emotions and passed out drunk next to Feihuajian.

But she didn't know that today in Hua Xi Tower, an ambush was set up specifically targeting her.

First, a team of eunuchs came in response to the emperor's order.

Stop the wedding procession in the street.

The leading eunuch's voice was sharp and piercing, and the words he used were extremely harsh, but it didn't seem out of place.

"The lowly Jiang family girl, who has been misled by evil words and secretly seduced by others, has neither the virtue of Ju nor the style of Baosi. She has also tried to sow discord among the royal family and instigated the prince of Xue to rebel. The prince of Xue failed and has been executed. Now, I have been ordered by your majesty to strangle him in the street. Anyone who follows the rebellion will also be killed without mercy!"

The people who came to welcome the bride were stunned.

Prince Xue rebelled under the pretext of getting married, and failed!

And the people sitting in the sedan chair were his accomplices!

The chief and deputy envoys who were there to welcome the bride had been called here at short notice and were already full of questions. Now that they finally knew what was going on, they were the first to kneel down and receive the order.

Although others were suspicious, they had no choice but to follow the chief and deputy envoys.

They knelt down in a pile again.

The dozen or so people standing there were all the guards left behind by Li Longye, and they were also the group of people who went to Liangzhou with Jiang Feng.

Jiang Feng didn't know whether the eunuch in the team was Li Longji's man or Li Dan's man.

A sharp voice came: "Why don't you kneel down and accept my order! Are you going to rebel?"

A guard replied, "Prince Xue is a man of honor, loyalty and filial piety. He would never do anything unjust! You have no evidence at all. You only wore a yellow robe and said a few words with your throat pinched. Do you dare to say that it is an imperial decree?"

The eunuch was furious: "Rebellion! Rebellion! Capture them!"

First, three-edged arrows were shot from the tall buildings on both sides, and each arrow was aimed at the sedan chair that Jiang Feng was riding in.

The guards outside can still resist.

The crowds on both sides suddenly became chaotic; some were running away, some were crowding, and some were taking advantage of the chaos to grab the dowry.

But no matter how chaotic it was, the other party's purpose was very clear, which was to ram the sedan chair and the guards.

Jiang Feng finally realized that perhaps it was not him, the current emperor or the future emperor, who wanted to put her to death.

If you don't kill the snake, you will eventually be bitten by it.

Jiang Feng took off his headgear, held the knife in his hand, and got off the sedan chair.

You Ran and Qiao Qing each took a knife and started hacking around while crying. No one came close to them for a while.

The other side has eunuchs, a battalion of ten thousand cavalrymen, and martial arts masters in plain clothes.

Sure enough, it was Ji'an's work again.

There are at least a hundred people.

I probably won’t survive today.

But my great revenge has not yet been taken, so I can only kill them one by one!

She also picked up a long sword and went up to kill him.

There was a woman's cry of pain, it was leisurely.

Jiang Feng didn't bother to look back.

She herself was tripped by the corpse, and at the same time someone came at her with a knife.

There's no way to hide!

Then protect and cut!

She lay on the corpse, holding the knife in both hands, pointing it towards the man's heart.

The other party suddenly paused, the knife did not fall, but he fell down and fell on her knife.

She couldn't bear the man's weight and let go.

The man fell straight down, followed by Guan Shanyun in black clothes and a long sword.

If there is someone who always shows up when you need him most, why is it?

Guan Shanyun brought five or six helpers, all of whom were first-rate kung fu masters.

The situation immediately reversed.

Although the eunuchs were shouting loudly, they had already begun to slowly withdraw from the battlefield.

Just when Jiang Feng thought he could escape, the sound of galloping horses came from behind the wedding procession.

Jiang Feng turned around and saw Cui Shi leading the way.

That guy always liked to wear white clothes, so the blood all over his body was particularly eye-catching.

Whose blood is that?

There was a fight here for a while, why did no one come to rescue Princess Taiping's mansion?

Did Princess Taiping meet with an accident?

Cui Shi and Jiang Feng both wished they could tear each other apart.

Cui Shi was sitting on the horse and had the advantage in momentum.

A thin military officer behind him whispered something to him, and Cui Shi immediately sent most of the troops to run towards the imperial palace.

There are still about two hundred people who can stay.

Did something unexpected happen in the palace?

Ji'an cooperated with Li Longji? To deal with Princess Taiping and Li Longye?

She didn't know and couldn't figure it out.

Guan Shanyun whispered something to her.

She looked up and nodded solemnly as Shunzhi Guan Shanyun said.

Ji'an, my mother Wang and my sister Yuan Ying are demanding your lives!
