I was forced to marry

Chapter 43 The Pursuit of Perfection

As the night was dark, Xiao Yue was led by Yuan Bei to jump in from the rear palace gate, and then changed into the eunuch uniform he had prepared before heading towards Duanfeng Palace.

Just walking in the palace, Xiao Yue smelled something strange.The number of guards patrolling is not only small but also loose.

Luo Hong has always been in charge of the forbidden army in the palace. Needless to say what kind of person Luo Hong is, and this forbidden army has a good mental outlook in the past. Could it be that they have become my night spy tonight? Are they still taking advantage of their own loopholes? .

This is really a bit strange.Moreover, Duanfeng Palace is not as good as before, there is not even a single waiter.I haven't entered the palace for only a few days, how could this Duanfeng Palace be so depressed.

When Xiao Yue saw the queen again, the queen's complexion was extremely weak, she was a completely different person from Mingyan a few days ago.No one could have imagined that Emperor Jingwen would be so unfeeling, to do this to the queen for a painting of a dead woman.

Although Lin Ling's death was indirectly caused by the queen's insistence on marrying Emperor Jingwen at that time, in order to get back the military amulet in Wen Shangshu's hand, the late emperor concealed it very well, and the queen didn't know it at all.

If it weren't for Lin Ling's death, Emperor Jingwen would be dying to live and die, and the empress might not know that the man she had always admired was someone else in her heart.

Moreover, since Emperor Jingwen ascended the throne, Wen Shangshu retired and returned to his hometown, and did not retain any power in the previous dynasty. Although the queen seemed to be in the middle palace, she was not dependent on the previous dynasty just like herself.

Now that I think about it, the Wen clan has no power in the court, and Emperor Jingwen probably did it on purpose.

"Mother~"

Seeing Xiao Yue, the empress was overjoyed and then worried, her mood fluctuated so much that she couldn't help leaning on the couch and coughing.Xiao Yue hurriedly stepped forward to support her, and patted her on the back, "Mother, it's important to take care of yourself."

The queen shook her head, took Xiao Yue's hand, and said hurriedly, "Yue'er, go, go."

"Mother?"

"Go quickly." The queen pushed Xiao Yue, looking nervous, and wanted to speak clearly with Xiao Yue, but it seemed that something was urging her, so she had no extra time to explain to Xiao Yue, she just kept talking pushing him.

Xiao Yue became more and more surprised, no matter how Emperor Jingwen would not be unfeeling to the queen, no matter what, the queen is also the mother of a country, and it will never be like this.It's fine that there are few people serving in Duanfeng Palace, how could the queen look like this when she saw her.

"Mother, who is it? Is there someone behind this? There is someone behind these things. Have you seen him?" Xiao Yue came to his senses, held the Queen's hand, and asked equally anxiously.

The queen's face froze when she heard the words, tears were streaming down her head, "Go back, go back to the East Palace, yes..." The queen was about to say, but was knocked unconscious by a gust of wind.

"Mother's Queen!" Xiao Yue was startled. In an instant, the candles in Duanfeng Palace suddenly went out, and the darkness of the whole hall made it difficult to see the five fingers clearly. Only the sound of pushing the door and footsteps behind him could be heard.

"Don't call, otherwise, the queen will give you a back first." The voice was very familiar.

"Be careful."

Yuan Bei pulled Xiao Yue away, and a dart passed by him and shot at the opposite pillar.

"Let's go!" Yuan Bei pulled Xiao Yue out of the palace gate, facing the moonlight and took Xiao Yue to leap away, but was kicked in the chest by the person who was chasing after him, and the two fell to the ground. on the ground.

In the dark night, in the inner courtyard of Duanfeng Palace, although the man was wearing a mask, Xiao Yue still recognized him with that voice just now.And his mask is the same one that he used in Xuanyu Tower that night.

"Assassinate me so blatantly in the palace, Li Yuanjing, you are quite courageous." Xiao Yue supported his chest and stood up, but he heard the person opposite him smirk, and then lifted his mask.Li Yuanjing's face, as handsome as the scorching sun, carried a strong murderous look against the backdrop of the moonlight.

"Sending you on the road is such an important matter, I don't feel relieved if someone else does it."

Hearing what Li Yuanjing said, Xiao Yue really regretted letting Bai Xiyu off that night for his sake, otherwise all these things would not have happened.

"You do it yourself, or this king himself." Li Yuanjing stood with his hands behind his back, confident and flamboyant, looking at Xiao Yue as if he was looking at a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

Xiao Yue was a little flustered, he had thought that Li Yuanjing would come to take his life, but after waiting in the East Palace for so long, he made many preparations in secret and he didn't come.Unexpectedly, he would choose to attack in the palace.

Li Yuanjing seemed to understand Xiao Yue's doubts, and explained generously: "No one knows that the prince left the East Palace, right. Therefore, no one else will know where he died."

"Which step has your plan come to? You are not afraid to trouble your upper body to take my life!" Xiao Yue asked with a smile.

Li Yuanjing looked at him indifferently, and narrowed his eyes dangerously after hearing what he said, "What do you know?"

"I didn't know at first, but you are so eager to kill me, so what I said confirmed my guess." After speaking, Xiao Yue quietly took out the pill that Qian Yugu gave him from his sleeve at some point. , Throwing it into the puddle on the ground, suddenly a puff of smoke swirled in front of him.

Taking advantage of this gap, Yuan Bei took Xiao Yue with him and withdrew.

"Why didn't you call someone!" Yuan Bei said harshly.

"The queen mother is in his hands. If it is exposed, the queen mother will die immediately!" Xiao Yue panted.

Li Yuanjing dared to do whatever he wanted in the palace. Could it be that the Great Zhou Palace is all his people?He is a prince who just came from Southern Chu, even if Emperor Jingwen corrected his identity, even if Emperor Jingwen loved him more because of his debt, he would not be to such an extent!

This is really unbelievable, and there must be some unknown secrets in it.

"Fuck me, I won't dazzle him like this!" Seeing that he could fly out from the side palace gate in a few steps, Li Yuanjing stopped him, and because of Yuan Bei's exhausted physical strength, he couldn't support Xiao Yue anymore. , when Li Yuanjing stabbed with a sword, the two fell again in order to avoid it.

Li Yuanjing provoked a bloodthirsty smile, raised his sword and stabbed towards Xiao Yue quickly and ruthlessly.When Yuan Bei saw him, he immediately started a fight with Li Yuanjing, but under Li Yuanjing's hands, Yuan Bei couldn't make more than ten moves before Li Yuanjing pierced his arm with a sword.

"Li Yuanjing, the person you want to kill is me!" Seeing that Li Yuanjing was about to seal Yuan Bei's throat with a sword, Xiao Yue yelled.Li Yuanjing sneered, put the sword in front of his eyes, and stabbed towards Xiao Yue with a touch of both feet.

Xiao Yue pulled out the dagger hidden in his boots and had no choice but to fight Li Yuanjing.When the fight started, Xiao Yue suddenly remembered that in the backyard of the government office in Linyuan City, Bai Xiyu had taught him a set of swordsmanship inexplicably, and it happened to come in handy now.

Li Yuanjing's martial arts are real martial arts, even Yuan Bei can't do ten moves in front of him, let alone himself.

However, when Xiao Yue and Li Yuanjing started fighting, Xiao Yue discovered that although the set of sword techniques Bai Xiyu taught him was not harsh, it was able to block Li Yuanjing's moves one by one. Swordsmanship is designed to decipher his moves.Even though he can't attack, he can defend his life.

"Xi Yu!" Li Yuanjing also saw the strangeness and familiarity in Xiao Yue's moves, and with the name in his mouth, he called out with some heartache and anger.

The leaves were rustled by the strong wind, and Li Yuanjing suddenly stopped attacking, pointing his sword at Xiao Yue, "Do you know how much this king cares about him?"

I know, I can see it.

"But, why did he choose you, Shadow Gate, and not this king!" After saying that, Li Yuanjing's eyes became murderous, and he raised his sword to stab Xiao Yue with his inner strength.Xiao Yue, who was blown by the strong wind, couldn't open his eyes, let alone block it with a dagger.

With a stab, Xiao Yue heard the sound of the sword entering the chest, but he didn't feel any pain in his body. When he opened his eyes, he realized that Yuan Bei was blocking him, and Li Yuanjing's sword was coming from his body. belly through.

"Yuan Bei, you..." Xiao Yue was very surprised, but Yuan Bei still stared at him with the same eyes, only because of the severe pain and loss of life, the power of those eyes became weaker and weaker.

"A broken prince who was abandoned by Beiliu, heh~" Li Yuanjing sneered, and drew out his sword. Just as he was about to make a move, a slender figure fell from the moonlight and struck Li Yuanjing with his palm, taking advantage of this to lift Xiao Yue up. Tong Yuanbei disappeared into the moonlight.

In the cold palace with dilapidated houses, Xiao Yue looked at Yuan Bei, whose face was as white as rice paper and bleeding profusely from his abdomen, and anxiously urged the people around him: "Qian Yugu, hurry up."

Qian Yugu, who bent over to handle the medicine box, looked up at Xiao Yue, still bookish, and said with a leisurely smile: "Your Highness, don't worry, his injury is worse than the first person you brought to me back then." It's heavy, it's just that the blood flowed a lot, and the pain passed out."

Xiao Yue glared at Qian Yugu, and then he calmly treated Yuan Bei's injury.

Xiao Yue helped tie the bandage on Yuan Bei, and asked, "Why are you in the palace?"

Qian Yugu raised his head and smiled at Xiao Yue, with a lazy voice and unstoppable movements of his hands, "It's thanks to me that you can come and go in and out of the palace safely, I think we just met in a hurry, Shaojin Just let me go back to the palace to hide without stopping."

Supporting Yuan Bei to lie down, Xiao Yue looked at Qian Yugu, frowned and said, "Lucking up? Who is it, who is helping Li Yuanjing, and why?"

After setting Yuanbei down, Qian Yugu patted his trouser legs, then straightened up and looked at the bright moon outside the window, lowered his head and said with a smile: "Little Highness, the sky is about to dawn, after so many days of turmoil, it is appropriate for the storm to end tomorrow." It's sunny."

The more Xiao Yue listened to it, the more unpleasant it became. The feeling of unhappiness and anxiety filled his chest that everyone knew about it but he didn't know about it. What's even more deceitful was that he was closely related to these things he didn't know about.

"Is it Luo Hong?" After thinking for a while, Xiao Yue bit his lower lip, looked up at Qian Yugu, and asked firmly, but there was some expectation in his eyes.

Qian Yugu turned to look at him, pulled out the folding fan inserted in the back of the neck, put it on his hand, and said with a smile: "The sect master and the others have the idea of ​​being loyal and protecting the master, so they only let you stay in the East Palace and wait for them to solve it for you. Alright, I will come to welcome you. How happy I would be if I changed to another master, and I don’t need to worry about such a big event, Your Highness, you are different from others.”

Xiao Yue was too lazy to argue with this quack doctor who was neither familiar nor unfamiliar, so he said cautiously, "Li Yuanjing was able to do whatever he wanted in Da Zhou, and I can't think of anyone else who can help him except General Luo. What's more, on the day of the father's birthday banquet, I later inquired about it, and when Dexi invited the father out, it was General Luo who asked to see him, and after that, at the birthday banquet, the father saw Li Yuanjing's abnormal behavior."

"What is your Highness worried about?" Qian Yugu looked at Xiao Yue and asked sharply.

"A Luo~" Xiao Yue murmured, and then looked at Qian Yugu, "A Luo is a member of your Shadow Sect, and a candidate for the next sect master of the Shadow Sect, but General Luo...how about A Luo? "When Luo Hong first flashed in his mind, this was what Xiao Yue was most worried about.Regardless of whether Li Yuanjing was the son of Emperor Jingwen or not, if he came back to fight back, if he really hit him with one blow, if Luo Hong was convicted, A Luo would not be able to please him.

Qian Yugu looked at him, holding a folding fan in his hand, and suddenly said: "Your Highness, do you know why Shaojin went to Beiliu to rescue you?"

Xiao Yue looked at Qian Yugu, and murmured: "Ah Luo said, it was General Luo's meaning." Thinking about the reason Luo Shaojin told him, Xiao Yue paused, Luo Shaojin spent time with him in Beiliu For half a year.If Luo Hong really asked him to save him, how could he stay with him in Beiliu for half a year.

The reason he gave at that time was also extremely absurd, but he didn't expect these things to come back at that time, so he was half-believed, and then he left it behind.

"Impossible. When I "stealed" you away from Concubine Yi, the one who saw the connection with Concubine Yi was Luo Hong."

Yuan Bei's voice suddenly sounded, although the voice was small, but his words made Xiao Yue jump, and turned his head suddenly to look at Yuan Bei who had woken up.

Qian Yugu also looked at Yuan Bei, and kept silent.

Concubine Yi died very quickly, and after she came back, she almost had no chance to stand up, as well as Su Jie's expression and what she said to herself when she left.Are these all related to Luo Hong?

"The person who sent Shaojin to Beiliu is the sect master."

Xiao Yue nodded his head numbly, he always knows everything.If so, Luo Shaojin stayed with him in Beiliu for half a year, not for anything else, but to protect himself, to give him more time, and to bring himself back to Dazhou when the time came.

Xiao Yue had wondered before, although Concubine Yi was Su Jie's daughter, but Su Jie knew nothing about her, so how could she, a concubine in the harem, have the ability to find those masters in Wutu to work for her? .And after he came back, she was like a tree falling and a monkey scattered, with no stamina at all, even the fake prince died so simply.

It's just that Xiao Yue didn't know that Lin Ling was involved at that time, so he ignored the doubt. Now that I think about it, those Jianghu killers are not from Concubine Yi.

"Why?" After Xiao Yue sorted out his thoughts, he felt a little weak, which was beyond his expectation.

Qian Yugu smiled, "No reason, just because Luo Hong is also an infatuated man, and he also loves Lin Ling very much. Of course he wants to find her child. Lin Ling is not an ordinary woman. Her heart is in the temple. She has aspirations and ambitions, and she even wanted to be an empress. In this regard, Li Yuanjing followed her, otherwise, how could the late emperor kill their mother and son."

Xiao Yue shook his head and said anxiously: "I'm not asking this, I'm asking why Ah Luo?" To help oneself, to help one's god-man image.

"Well, Shaojin is a person who pursues perfection. It's almost dawn, so it's better to hide here. Although Luo Hong knows the route in the palace, but the palace is so big, it's still not easy to find my hiding place, Qian Yugu. "

"It seems that the sect master and the others are well prepared, otherwise, Li Yuanjing would not be so risky to kill you tonight."

"What will they do?"

"We'll see tomorrow. Whether we succeed or not depends entirely on tomorrow. If we win, Luo Hong and Li Yuanjing will lose. If we lose, Yingmen and His Highness will lose!" Qian Yugu said, with a smile on his face, and his expression was a little serious.

"By the way, the queen mother."

"Don't worry, I have arranged for someone to go, the queen will be fine."

Xiao Yue nodded, but his heart was extremely nervous. He was not worried about others, but worried about Luo Shaojin.

The author has something to say: Don't worry, your family member is also my protagonist, and I won't let him have a big trouble for the time being.It's just that there is no guarantee that he will have any minor problems.
