i want to marry a princess
Chapter 135
At this time, Guo Chan in the palace still knew nothing about what happened in the Xuanpinghou Mansion.
The same is true for Sima He who wants to force the palace. He never imagined that Zhao Laiyi was able to leave the dungeon because of the deal she made with Guo Chan.
Ever since she found out that Ling Jieyu was pregnant, Guo Chan knew that she couldn't sit still. The stability of the vassal king was only temporary. If Sima He provoked a dispute again, the world would be in turmoil, and the capital would suffer from the enemy.
But because of the crimes committed by the former emperor against the Ruyang Palace, Sima Yi could not attack Sima He first anyway.Therefore, she must let Sima He mess himself up first, let him usurp the throne and force the palace!
So she found Zhao Laiyi, Sailu was in her hands, Zhao Laiyi worked for the Turks, so she might not be very loyal to Sima He, not to mention that she borrowed from Wen Qing the poison used to force Zhao Laiyi to interrogate her last time, and she had a bargaining chip to control her. If Zhao Laiyi is smart, she will know what choice to make.
Sure enough, Zhao Laiyi agreed to her condition without hesitation, pretended to be rescued, and found Sima He.Zhao Laiyi first revealed to Sima He that Ling Jieyu was pregnant, then hinted that Sima He Wenqing was very likely to make Sima Yi recover, then persuaded Sima He to force the palace to rebel, and finally told her all about Sima He's plan.
Today she entered the palace early in the morning. No matter outside the palace or inside the palace, a large number of imperial guards were placed everywhere, fully prepared, just waiting for Sima He to take the bait.
Sure enough, Sima He successfully let his men enter the capital with the help of the commander of the Beijing defense.The plan this time is not only to annihilate Sima He, but also to catch the ministers with malicious intentions and clean up the court, killing two birds with one stone.
Over there, Ling Pingzhi led his troops all the way to the agreed place, which was less than five miles away from the palace, and could launch an attack quickly.The surprisingly smooth journey made him doubtful.Sima He had already put on his armor and brought another team of soldiers to join him here.
"My lord."
Sima He nodded. The imperial palace was not far away, and there was a strange silence in the dark night. This kind of silence not only did not make people feel peaceful, but made him feel a little uneasy in his heart.
Ling Pingzhi congratulated Sima after integrating the troops: "Qi'er has brought people to Xuanpinghou's mansion as planned, and it will be successful in a short time."
Sima He glanced at him, and slowly said: "Uncle Ling, did you and my father think about today?"
Thinking of the past, Ling Pingzhi's eyes became a little confused. He and the then King Ruyang almost grew up together. .So at that time, King Ruyang failed to inherit the throne, and he always felt injustice in his heart, but King Ruyang himself had no obsession with the throne, and often advised him that everything was destined by God.
What can be exchanged?
King Ruyang returned to the west because of the former emperor's small stomach and chicken intestines, and he just wanted to find a truth, but he hurt his wife and countless brothers. He survived by luck, but he couldn't forget the hatred in his heart, and the former emperor's blood was not worthy of inheritance at all. The throne, rule the world.So ever since Sima He returned to the fief, he secretly found the young Sima He, and has been planning to this day.
Now, everything will end today.
After regaining his senses, Ling Pingzhi said angrily: "How can I see today, but if I knew today, I would definitely not let the former emperor ascend the throne back then!"
After a pause, Ling Pingzhi looked at Sima He and said seriously: "I know that you are not interested in the throne. Brother Sima mentioned to me that you are more unruly by nature and don't like restraint. The throne is not suitable for you, but This is your mission. This is the price they should pay! Otherwise, how can Brother Sima rest in peace?!"
A dark light flashed in Sima He's eyes. He had heard such words countless times since he was sensible. In the past, Ling Pingzhi was filled with righteous indignation when he talked about the past, and wished he could rush to the capital to kill the late emperor. His hatred remained undiminished.
I don't know if he saw Sima He's hesitation, Ling Qi urged: "It's not too late, the prince should act earlier, don't miss the opportunity!"
Sima He looked up at the dark night silently, thinking in his heart, let all the hatred be settled today.
"attack!--"
Due to his surprise and unpreparedness, Sima He quickly led his men to break through the first palace gate, without even causing too many casualties.
There was an urgent sound of drumming in the inner courtyard of the palace, and everyone in the capital could no longer sleep peacefully in the dark night. They all got up to check what happened, and saw that the direction of the palace was brightly lit, like the dawn of the east.
Sima He led the troops to the second palace gate. At this time, all the people brought by Sima He were caught between the first palace gate and the second palace gate, but Sima He and others did not realize it at this time. The first palace gate was closed by someone at some point, and he just wanted to launch an attack to break through the second palace gate.
When Sima He found out that he failed to break through the second palace gate with nearly [-] soldiers, he finally realized that something was wrong.He looked back at the palace gate when he came, only to find that there were very few corpses on the ground.
"Uncle Ling!"
Ling Pingzhi shouted "Yes", and immediately ran to him with a knife in his hand, "My lord?"
Sima He pointed at the palace gate, and said bitterly: "Today we may have fallen for the trick!"
As the words fell, a large number of archers poured out from the originally empty palace wall, and countless arrows were shot from high places. Sima He watched helplessly as his men fell to the ground one by one.
Then, fireballs were thrown from the sky one by one, and many people were crushed to a pulp before they could dodge.
The situation of not being able to advance and not being able to retreat made Sima He and his party truly vulnerable.
Sima He was so angry that his hands were shaking, he gritted his teeth and said, "Sima Yi!"
Ling Pingzhi also realized that something was wrong. Normally, the defense of the imperial palace would not be equipped with so many archers so quickly. It can only be said that they have been prepared for a long time, please enter the urn!
Ling Pingzhi said: "My lord, what should we do now?"
Sima He thought for a while and said, "Either attack and take a gamble, or retreat and make a long-term plan."
While blocking the flying arrows, Ling Pingzhi said: "No matter which side you choose, Sima Yi will use today's events to attack you, my lord. But I think if they know that we will come today, then no matter whether they come in or out, wait It's definitely not going to be an easy road for us."
Sima He also knew that the situation was urgent, and scolded: "Zhao Laiyi! Where is she?!"
Ling Pingzhi also knew that if their plan was leaked, it could only be Zhao Laiyi, but now Zhao Laiyi must have slipped away, so where can they find it.
Sima He had probably never been betrayed by anyone, and he was furious. Ling Pingzhi could only persuade him: "My lord, how to get rid of this situation is the most important thing at this time. We can think about the rest after we leave."
Sima He also knew that Ling Pingzhi was telling the truth. Seeing the countless casualties he brought with him, he never understood why he believed Zhao Laiyi's words that day!
Sima He quickly made a decision, "The convener breaks through and leaves the palace immediately!"
With the green hills still there, there is no need to worry about no firewood, and I don't know the situation in the palace, so there may be a way out of the palace.
"Yes!"
Ling Pingzhi immediately ordered everyone to turn around and conquer the palace gate they broke through just now, which is also ironic. The palace gate they broke through without any effort now becomes even more difficult to break through again.
"Guo Chan!"
Sima He yelled angrily, he knew that Guo Chan must have planned this situation today, how could that woman Zhao Laiyi be able to persuade her because she had no advantage at all.And he saw that Zhao Laiyi's thoughts on Guo Chan were probably true, otherwise, how could he propose to besiege Xuanpinghou's mansion? He wanted to see if Guo Chan knew about it!
The next moment, Sima He saw Guo Chan's heroic figure appearing on the palace wall.
Guo Chan said indifferently: "King Ruyang, don't come here without any harm."
Seeing her victorious attitude, Sima He felt angry, "Do you think you have won?"
Guo Chan looked at Sima He, his battle robe was stained red with blood, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. She said coldly, "I only know that you can't leave the palace alive today!"
Sima He said: "At this time, the situation in Xuanpinghou's mansion must not be much better! If I die, it would be a good choice to drag everyone in your mansion to be buried with me!"
Guo Chan was taken aback, and then thought that the Xuanpinghou's mansion could not be easily breached because of the arrangements.
Seeing Guo Chan's disbelief, Sima He sighed: "To be honest, I didn't expect that woman Zhao Laiyi to be so scheming, she lied to me and you too."
After a pause, Sima He said again: "Zhao Laiyi said that she wants you to be her... um? How should I describe it? Maybe a bed partner or a bed warmer? Haha! I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. At this moment, Lu Jinyan must have been captured by Zhao Laiyi as a prisoner, but I don't know what she will do to Lu Jinyan. Think about it, such a delicate flower, what a pity."
Sima He's words shocked everyone. Huo Rufeng glanced at Guo Chan, whose face was frosty, and immediately scolded the Imperial Forest Army who were distracted by Sima He's words.
Guo Chan has been sending people to monitor the situation in the Hou Mansion today, and she has never seen the signal bomb she sent to Lu Jinyan so far. Is it all right or the incident happened suddenly and the signal bomb was too late...
Even if someone who was sure of the arrangements would never allow Sima He's men to capture the Hou Mansion, Guo Chan couldn't help but start to feel worried at this moment.
Huo Rufeng, who had been paying attention to Guo Chan all the time, saw her expression, and said in a deep voice: "Princess, the most urgent thing right now is to quickly resolve the rebellion here, so that we can get out of the palace and save the crisis of the Hou Mansion!"
Guo Chan withdrew her thoughts and nodded heavily, "Well, Commander Huo said yes! I was distracted for a while."
Seeing her calm down, Huo Rufeng immediately ordered the Imperial Forest Army to launch a new round of attack, without giving Sima He the slightest chance to breathe.
In the previous effort, Sima He had brought people back to the first palace gate, but soldiers were densely packed on the originally empty palace wall, and the intensive and fierce offensive made it difficult for Sima He and others to parry.
Guo Chan said in a deep voice: "Sima He, you should be clear that you have no chance of escaping from here today. I advise you to surrender, so that whether it is Princess Ruyang, Prince Ruyang's son or the people present, the emperor can still open the net." one side!"
Sima He was not one to admit defeat easily, he said in a trembling voice, "Immediately break through this palace gate and go out. This king promises to bring you back to your hometown safely!"
"Yes, my lord!"
Seeing this, Guo Chan lowered her face and said in a cold voice, "Kill all the rebels!"
After the words fell, Ling Pingzhi flew to the palace wall, trying to shake the situation with his own strength.His martial arts were so strong that he killed dozens of people in a short time.
Guo Chan said, "Bring the arrow!"
After the words fell, someone immediately handed a bow and arrow, and Guo Chan took it and aimed it at Ling Pingzhi.
An arrow was fired, and Ling Pingzhi suffered pain from the arrow in his shoulder, and stepped back several times, while blocking the attack.
Guo Chan was about to shoot another arrow when he heard Huo Rufeng's shout.
"careful!"
Throwing the bow and arrow in his hand, Guo Chan immediately pulled out the sword on his waist, barely parrying the incoming arrow.Immediately, she stood on the towering palace wall and looked coldly at Sima He who was also looking at her.
Sima He's eyes glowed with fire, seeming to be provocative or angry.
After a while, Guo Chan looked away and asked, "Has General Jin arrived yet?!"
Huo Rufeng said: "If you calculate the time, it should be almost here."
At this moment, the shouts outside the palace gate broke the sky!
It's Jin Lu's soldiers who have arrived!
Before the change of the vassal king, Sima Yi sent many soldiers and horses to the pass to frighten them. Jin Lu was among them, and he had not returned for a long time. It is not a problem for Sima He and his party to wipe out.
Sima He obviously realized it too, his face was flustered, and for the first time he felt an uncontrollable uneasiness.
Ling Pingzhi flew down the palace wall and said anxiously: "My lord, Jin Lu has arrived with a large number of soldiers! If we break through, we will only face Jin Lu's soldiers!"
Sima He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. There were fewer and fewer people around him. It was undoubtedly a desperate situation for them at this time.
"Uncle Ling, I'm afraid we'll be here today." Sima He looked helplessly at the palace, "I'm sorry."
At this moment, Ling Pingzhi's eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't help crying when he looked at Sima He.He watched Sima He grow up, but he didn't pay much attention to his biological son, so Sima He was more like him, and Ling Qi was more like his father.
"My lord, I'm sorry for you." Ling Pingzhi felt an indelible guilt, which was exactly the same as the guilt he felt for the death of King Ruyang back then.
Guo Chan was paying attention to the movement of the two of them, and was hesitating whether to open the palace gate and let the Imperial Forest Army join the battle.
Suddenly a palm fell from the shoulder, she turned her head, it was her father Xuan Pinghou.
Guo Chan was overjoyed, "Father, you're back?!"
Xuan Pinghou glanced at her, and slowly said: "I'm here, you should leave the palace first."
Guo Chan was taken aback, "Have you been back to the house?"
"Jinyan was taken away."
After the words fell, Guo Chan's sword let out a whimper.
"I'll leave the palace first!"
Seeing that the person had already flown down under the palace wall, Huo Rufeng looked at her back and sighed.
Naturally, the way out of the palace was not the only one that Sima He came in, it was just a detour out of the palace by using the back mountain.
Obviously Guo Chan couldn't wait for a moment.
Xuan Pinghou patted Huo Rufeng's shoulder, "Okay, it's almost dawn, let's end it as soon as possible."
Huo Rufeng withdrew his gaze and said, "Yes, Lord Hou!"
Xuan Pinghou nodded, and then ordered: "Bring him up!"
When Huo Rufeng saw Princess Ruyang and Prince Ruyang's son, he couldn't help but look at Xuan Pinghou in surprise.
Xuan Pinghou didn't change his face, and sighed: "Sometimes it is necessary to do extraordinary things."
"Pass down the emperor's oral order!——"
"Sima He, the king of Ruyang, rebelled with his army today. I am deeply saddened, but I think of brotherhood. If I immediately surrender and put down the ice blade in my hand, I will give it lightly!"
Xuan Pinghou used his internal strength, and everyone present could hear him clearly.
Xuan Pinghou pointed to Princess Ruyang and Prince Ruyang's son, and said calmly: "Push them to the front and drive them with a knife."
Princess Ruyang refused and was pushed hard. She said angrily: "I never thought that Xuan Pinghou, who always prides himself on being righteous, would do such things to bully women and children today."
Prince Ruyang's son saw the corpses floating under the palace wall, and cried out in fear.
Xuan Pinghou pointed to the son of Prince Ruyang and suddenly said, "Princess Jingxiu was about this age when she died."
Princess Ruyang was startled, but she was speechless.
Xuan Pinghou walked up to the son and picked him up, pointed to Sima He below, and said kindly: "My son, take a look, your father is right below, are you afraid, if you are afraid, please beg your father , let him save you. He will definitely save you."
Prince Ruyang's son was just a child, and when he heard this, he immediately howled, "Father! Father! Save the child, save the child!! The child is afraid!"
At this time, Xuan Ping Hou turned to look at Princess Ruyang, looked at her furious expression, and said: "This Marquis advises the princess not to act impulsively, otherwise I promise you will regret it."
Princess Ruyang looked at the child in his arms and nodded silently.She took two steps forward, just in time to see Sima He. At this moment, Sima He was a little embarrassed and was glaring at this place.
Ling Pingzhi said: "My lord, my concubine and son are taken into captivity, what should I do?"
Sima He stared at the mother and son for a long time, then shouted angrily, "What else can I do?!"
When the words fell, the sword in his hand fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Ling Pingzhi made a gesture, and the people brought by Sima He threw away their weapons one after another.
Only then did Xuan Pinghou let go of Prince Ruyang's son, and the little son immediately threw himself into his mother's arms, and the mother and son cried together.
Xuan Pinghou waved his hand sideways and said, "Huo Rufeng, you lead people to clean up the mess below, and imprison Sima He, waiting for the emperor's punishment."
Huo Rufeng replied: "Yes, I will handle it immediately!"
The mother and son were still crying like tears, Xuan Pinghou went to arrest the two and bring them to the capital according to the arrangement, not really to push the two to death, but just taking advantage of the trend, and can end the matter early.
Xuan Pinghou sighed and persuaded: "Princess, the emperor is not a cruel person, but you have done too much this time. Besides, the grievances of the previous generation should not be borne by the emperor, so please persuade King Ruyang , maybe there is still a glimmer of life."
Princess Ruyang was taken aback, and looked up at Xuan Ping Hou, but Xuan Ping Hou turned to face the east. At this time, a round of red sun was gradually rising, and the night was dyed with morning light.
Guo Chan flew away from the palace all the way, and ran into Dongqing who had just come out of the palace.
As soon as Dongqing saw her, she said anxiously: "Princess!—"
Guo Chan interrupted her, "I already know what Jinyan said, what's the specific situation now?!"
"It's the fifth princess!" Dongqing said: "The fifth princess entered the mansion at night with the excuse of you and the county horse, and then asked the county horse to send her out of the mansion. Unexpectedly, the people guarding Sima He outside the mansion killed the guards. , took away the county horse!"
Guo Chan said angrily: "Where are the hidden guards arranged?! Didn't they find any abnormalities one by one?!"
Dongqing knew that the hidden guards were negligent, but she still couldn't help explaining for them: "Sima He's men were half an hour earlier than expected, our men were not prepared in time, and the county horse was subdued and there was no time to send out the signal bomb. By the time the hidden guards realized something was wrong, the county horse had already been taken away!"
Guo Chan glared, "Zhao Laiyi! Sima Ting!"
Today, she wondered why Sima He was late, and it turned out that Zhao Laiyi was behind it, otherwise how could she have missed Sima Ting's matter!If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let Sima Ting go!
Dongqing's eyes hesitated, looking at Guo Chan hesitating to speak.
"Is there anything else you haven't told me?"
Dongqing said: "When Sima He's people were found, they were all lying outside the Hou's mansion. They seemed to have been drugged. Zhao Laiyi, Fifth Princess and others were not found among them."
Dongqing knew that Zhao Laiyi had other thoughts about the princess, but she never thought that she would catch the county horse so madly.The county horse and the princess have a very deep relationship, and now the princess is afraid that Zhao Laiyi will be cut into pieces.She prayed silently in her heart that Zhao Laiyi must not do anything too outrageous.
Guo Chan said coldly: "Immediately order everyone to search for Zhao Laiyi's whereabouts! Be sure to give the princess an hour to find it!"
Dongqing knew that the princess was really angry, and immediately responded: "This subordinate understands!"
"After the arrangements are made, you go to Wen Qing to get the antidote first, and then go back home to meet me."
"Yes!"
After Dongqing left, Guo Chan finally showed a worried look on her face. She looked at Dongfang's pale belly and slowly clenched her hands into fists.
Sincerely, you must not have an accident!
At this time, Lu Jinyan's situation is considered safe. After she was taken away by Zhao Laiyi, she was locked in this room, but there were guards on all sides. She had no martial arts, so she couldn't escape at all.
Zhao Laiyi didn't hide it from her at all, this place is about a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the capital city, judging from the decoration here, there should be people living there all the time, she guessed that this is the place where Sima He hid before.
She can probably guess Zhao Laiyi's thoughts. First, she pretended to cooperate with Guo Chan to betray Sima He, but at the last moment, she bit them again. It was too scheming.
"I've seen Miss."
"Is it safe for people inside?"
"Miss Hui, she has been inside."
Hearing the conversation, Lu Jinyan knew it was Zhao Laiyi.
Sure enough, the next moment the door opened and Zhao Laiyi walked in slowly.
Seeing her, Lu Jinyan said indifferently: "Miss Zhao is really playing it cleverly?"
Zhao Laiyi heard the sarcasm in Lu Jin's words, but the winner is the greatest, so what can she do?
She took two steps forward, "Lu...no, Miss Ren doesn't seem to be worried about her situation?"
"Why am I worried?" Lu Jinyan looked at her and said with a smile: "Ms. Zhao should want to get the antidote even more, otherwise in the end, no matter what, she will die alone. People die, but nothing is left."
Hearing this, Zhao Laiyi couldn't help thinking of the pain that had been tormenting her recently. She knew that Guo Chan would never believe her, but she didn't expect Guo Chan to give her such a strong poison.
Thinking of her own pain, Zhao Laiyi's complexion became uneasy, and she said angrily: "If it is really impossible, I don't mind dying with you!"
Lu Jinyan said with a smile: "Actually, Ms. Zhao doesn't have to work so hard. Originally, as long as you follow the previous plan, Achan will definitely give you the antidote and let you go. It's a pity..."
Said Lu Jinyan shook his head.
"What a pity?!"
"It's a pity that you think you are smart!" Lu Jinyan said slowly: "Do you think she is a person who likes to be manipulated and teased? Ms. Zhao still underestimated Achan."
Lu Jinyan's tone seemed to be the person who knew Guo Chan best in the world. Zhao Laiyi felt that Lu Jinyan was showing off the intimacy between her and Guo Chan in front of her at this time.
"Guess, if you have a few more scars on your face, will she still love you?" Zhao Laiyi thought viciously: "Or if she knows that you have been violated by others, will she still treat you as before?" ?”
Lu Jinyan's face turned pale, but he still maintained his superficial composure.
Zhao Laiyi didn't miss the panic in her eyes, and she said proudly: "So I advise you to be quiet, otherwise, whether it is the handsome Lu Houye or the lovely Miss Ren, as long as I am unhappy, I will be happy at that time." None exist."
Lu Jinyan silently watched Zhao Laiyi leave triumphantly, with deep anxiety in her heart. She saw seriousness and madness in Zhao Laiyi's eyes just now. Maybe Zhao Laiyi didn't just say it casually, she really wanted to do it then!
The panic in her heart overwhelmed her, and she squatted on the ground and curled up together.
"Achan, where are you?"
—
"I want to leave! Let me go!"
After Sima Ting and Zhao Laiyi came here together, they were imprisoned. She regretted endlessly in her heart. She knew that she should not have agreed to Zhao Laiyi's lobbying to work for Sima He.
These days, there are more and more papers about her impeachment. She just doesn't understand why those old things always hold her tightly.It's just playing with a few maidservants, and occasionally some innocent women, why are they doing this? !She just wanted to live freely, and those people wanted to deprive her of her only pleasure.
On the other hand, Guo Chan spends his time with Lu Jinyan openly and aboveboard, and the two of them are very close, even at places like palace banquets.As for her, she didn't dare to bring a concubine with her, because the queen mother didn't like it, and because the officials didn't like it!
Sima Ting was so tired from screaming that she angrily threw the things in the room all over the place.
According to Zhao Laiyi, Sima He will definitely fail.Originally, she wanted to sneak back to the mansion, and when everything was over, pretend she didn't know anything, and blame everything on Zhao Laiyi, but she didn't expect Zhao Laiyi to see through her thoughts and arrest her here.
She doesn't want to be locked up in the mansion for the rest of her life or suffer Guo Chan's boundless revenge. She knows that Guo Chan will not let her go easily once he commits a crime against her!
"What's it called?! I'll tell you to take care of you again!"
The door was pushed open suddenly, and Sima Ting saw three fierce Turkic men walking in, she couldn't help but took a few steps back, and tugged on her originally wide skirt.
The three Turkic people looked at each other in blank dismay. The five princesses did not look like women from the Central Plains, but more like their Turkic women. They were enchanting and plump, and looked extremely beautiful.
"Get out!" Sima Ting couldn't see their salivating eyes, she just felt disgusted all over her body.She kept backing away, yelling, "Get out! Get out! I am the fifth princess!"
However, the three of them didn't care about her yelling at all, and rushed forward, picked her up and walked into the inner room.Sima Ting panicked and wanted to break free, but how could she, a weak woman, withstand the strength of three people.
Sima Ting's yard was right next to Nian'er, she heard the woman's cries clearly from the side, she covered her ears, but found that she couldn't resist the sound at all.
In a trance, she heard Ling Qi's voice.
"Nian'er, Nian'er."
After several times, she realized that it was not a hallucination, turned around, and Ling Qi was right behind her.
"Husband!" Nian'er was a little excited when she saw Ling Qi come back, "You're back, is everything going well?"
Ling Qi told her about the collusion between Zhao Laiyi and Guo Chan with a sullen face, but Nian'er was shocked when she heard it. It turned out that Zhao Laiyi told her to tell her the information he got from Ling Qi in time because she wanted to tell Guo Chan!
Nian'er's face turned pale, Ling Qi said: "Nian'er, what's wrong?"
Hearing this, Nian'er immediately shook her head in a panic, lowering her head to cover up her guilty conscience.
Ling Qi didn't think too much, and sighed: "Father and the others should have been caught. I came back to take you out of here, and secondly, to rescue Lu Jinyan."
"Master Lu? Why is she here?"
Ling Qi said: "She was caught here by Zhao Laiyi. I followed her all the way, but I didn't expect her to come back here."
As he said that, Ling Qi thought, fortunately Zhao Laiyi came back here, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sneak in easily.
Nian'er knew that Lu Jinyan was actually Ren Suyi, the woman Ling Qi had been thinking about day and night, and when she heard that he was coming back to save her, she felt sore in her heart.
"But this place has been controlled by Zhao Laiyi, we are weak, how can we rescue Lu Houye." Nian'er persuaded in a low voice: "Why don't we leave here first, and then notify the princess to come and save people."
Ling Qi also heard the voice from the side, and he said with an ugly face: "It will only delay the time, and I don't know what will happen at that time. In this way, I will take you out of the mansion first, and you will go out of the city directly after you leave here." , wait for me at the inn ten miles away, and then I will meet you after I come back and rescue her."
Seeing his resolute expression, Nian'er knew in her heart that it would be futile to persuade him, so she nodded.
At this time, the maid serving Nian'er came in, Ling Qi immediately knocked her unconscious.He caught a glimpse of the maid's clothes, and immediately said: "Nian'er, you change into her clothes."
Nian'er nodded.
Ling Qi was originally wearing armor, which was too conspicuous, so he took advantage of this time to change into a simple attire, and rolled up his trousers to look like a boy.
After the two changed their clothes, they immediately left here. Before leaving, Ling Qi went to the room where the maid lived to get a set of clothes.
Because of living here for a long time, Ling Qi is very familiar with this place, so he sent Nian'er out and came back soon.
He hid in the dark and observed, and found a courtyard with the strictest security, which was the courtyard where Sima He lived before, so he approached quietly, and found that this place was different, except that there were dozens of people guarding outside the courtyard, watching them The clothes are all Turkic people.
Along the way, he didn't find any of Sima He's guards, only some of the maidservants who were serving here were still there, presumably the rest were cleaned up by Zhao Laiyi's men.
The defense is tight, Ling Qi knows that it is impossible to rescue Lu Jinyan with his own strength, so he has been hiding in the dark looking for opportunities, but Zhao Laiyi is obviously very worried about Lu Jinyan, even though Lu Jinyan is just a woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, There are at least 30 people guarding the yard.
After two hours, Ling Qi still didn't find the opportunity, but luckily nothing else happened.
At this time, Zhao Laiyi brought someone.
Ling Qi hid in the dark and looked at the person behind Zhao Laiyi in surprise. The person was extremely ugly, his face was covered with wrinkles, he walked curled up, and his clothes were torn. Even Ling Qi felt disgusted when he saw it.
He watched Zhao Laiyi lead her into the room where Lu Jinyan was being held, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.
He remembered the woman's desperate cry before, because Sima Ting was arrested by Zhao Laiyi because of her evil intentions, so Ling Qi had no plan to save Sima Ting at all, but what was in front of him was Lu Jinyan, how could he hold back!
Even if you are weak, if you can procrastinate, procrastinate, there is always a chance.
Lu Jinyan looked at the people brought by Zhao Laiyi and immediately understood her plan. She secretly put her hands behind her back and looked at Zhao Laiyi vigilantly.
Zhao Laiyi looked at her like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, "To be honest, I didn't have this plan at first, but I just learned something and got some inspiration, so I decided to give you a big gift."
Zhao Laiyi couldn't help but get a little excited thinking about the next scene. She pretended to cough twice, and said to the people behind her: "I will leave this person to you. You should know how to do it."
The people behind looked at Lu Jinyan and said, "But isn't this a man?"
The voice was hoarse and incomprehensible, and it made people sick at first hearing. Lu Jinyan thought that this person was a beggar that Zhao Laiyi had someone randomly dragged from the street, with a stench all over his body.
Zhao Laiyi laughed twice, "What man, this is a real daughter. Please be content, this is your great blessing!"
Hearing this, the man finally showed a wretched smile, "The villain knows it, and I will definitely do good things for you!"
To be able to take money and enjoy such a woman is simply a pie that fell from the sky.
Zhao Laiyi looked at Lu Jinyan maliciously, she wanted to see what would happen to Lu Jinyan after such a thing?
Lu Jin said, "Aren't you afraid?"
Zhao Laiyi knew that Lu Jinyan was asking her if she was afraid of Guo Chan's revenge, she smiled and said: "At that time, I will exchange you for the antidote and the eldest prince, and make you faint. When you wake up, tell Guo Chan that we left the city early, what are you afraid of? !"
After the words fell, Zhao Laiyi told the man, "Hurry up!"
"The villain will go here, go here."
When that person passed by Zhao Laiyi, she smelled a stench and couldn't help covering her nose. She didn't know where they found him, it was extremely disgusting.
Looking at this scene, Zhao Laiyi was a little excited and a little disgusted, and finally she chose to leave here, not because she didn't want to see Lu Jinyan being bullied, but because he was so disgusting that she couldn't help but want to vomit.
As soon as Zhao Laiyi left, the beggar couldn't hide the dirty thoughts in his heart, and quickly approached Lu Jinyan.Lu Jinyan hid back with his hands behind his back, until he hid in a corner, there was no way to avoid it, the beggar's gray eyes glowed with a disgusting light, Lu Jinyan suppressed his nausea and waited for him to approach.
"Beauty..."
"You are beautiful!" Lu Jinyan angrily inserted the dagger hidden in her sleeve into the chest of the person in front of her. She didn't hesitate at all, she knew that if she didn't do something cruel, she must be the one who regretted it in the end!
The beggar never thought that he would be killed, and fell down with his eyes wide open.
Ling Qi was surprised when he jumped in from the window and saw this scene.
Lu Jinyan was also surprised, "Ling Qi, why are you here?!"
"I'm here to rescue you!"
Lu Jinyan looked at him and said, "Have you thought it through?"
Ling Qi was startled, and realized that Lu Jinyan was suspicious of him, and said with a wry smile, "I know I made a big mistake, and I can't make up for it, but I want to save you."
Lu Jinyan thought for a while and said, "So, thank you very much."
It would be safer to fall into the hands of Ling Qi than to fall into the hands of a lunatic like Zhao Laiyi.
"You don't have to thank me."
It was Lu Jinyan who reminded him earlier that his grandfather had always hoped that he would be a good general who would serve the country loyally and carry forward the Ling family.Grandfather's death was to stop his father's revenge. Even though grandfather knew that the emperor was not benevolent, he felt that the current emperor was a trustworthy person, so he chose to give up his hatred and his life.
Before his death, his grandfather entrusted Guo Chan with the sole purpose that Guo Chan could protect himself after his father's crimes were exposed in the future, but he didn't want to. He obeyed his father's arrangement and did many wrong things.
Lu Jinyan poked her head out of the window where Ling Qi came in, and there were several people guarding the front of the yard. She frowned and said, "How do we get out? There are so many Turkic people guarding here."
Ling Qi said, "Put this on first."
It was only then that Lu Jinyan noticed that Ling Qi was dressed as a follower, and he was still holding a bundle in his hand.
"This is the maid's clothes here. You change them first. We slipped out of the backyard. I killed the person guarding the backyard and hid them. They haven't been found yet. We can leave from there."
Lu Jinyan nodded and said, "I'm going to change clothes, wait a moment."
Lu Jinyan went into the inner room with the bag in his arms, and changed it out after a while.
Ling Qi was stunned, he hadn't seen her dress up as a daughter for a long time.
Lu Jinyan looked at him, "What?"
Ling Qi shook his head, "It's okay, let's go quickly."
"it is good."
The two of them turned over from the window, and Ling Qi took out a handful from nowhere.
The same is true for Sima He who wants to force the palace. He never imagined that Zhao Laiyi was able to leave the dungeon because of the deal she made with Guo Chan.
Ever since she found out that Ling Jieyu was pregnant, Guo Chan knew that she couldn't sit still. The stability of the vassal king was only temporary. If Sima He provoked a dispute again, the world would be in turmoil, and the capital would suffer from the enemy.
But because of the crimes committed by the former emperor against the Ruyang Palace, Sima Yi could not attack Sima He first anyway.Therefore, she must let Sima He mess himself up first, let him usurp the throne and force the palace!
So she found Zhao Laiyi, Sailu was in her hands, Zhao Laiyi worked for the Turks, so she might not be very loyal to Sima He, not to mention that she borrowed from Wen Qing the poison used to force Zhao Laiyi to interrogate her last time, and she had a bargaining chip to control her. If Zhao Laiyi is smart, she will know what choice to make.
Sure enough, Zhao Laiyi agreed to her condition without hesitation, pretended to be rescued, and found Sima He.Zhao Laiyi first revealed to Sima He that Ling Jieyu was pregnant, then hinted that Sima He Wenqing was very likely to make Sima Yi recover, then persuaded Sima He to force the palace to rebel, and finally told her all about Sima He's plan.
Today she entered the palace early in the morning. No matter outside the palace or inside the palace, a large number of imperial guards were placed everywhere, fully prepared, just waiting for Sima He to take the bait.
Sure enough, Sima He successfully let his men enter the capital with the help of the commander of the Beijing defense.The plan this time is not only to annihilate Sima He, but also to catch the ministers with malicious intentions and clean up the court, killing two birds with one stone.
Over there, Ling Pingzhi led his troops all the way to the agreed place, which was less than five miles away from the palace, and could launch an attack quickly.The surprisingly smooth journey made him doubtful.Sima He had already put on his armor and brought another team of soldiers to join him here.
"My lord."
Sima He nodded. The imperial palace was not far away, and there was a strange silence in the dark night. This kind of silence not only did not make people feel peaceful, but made him feel a little uneasy in his heart.
Ling Pingzhi congratulated Sima after integrating the troops: "Qi'er has brought people to Xuanpinghou's mansion as planned, and it will be successful in a short time."
Sima He glanced at him, and slowly said: "Uncle Ling, did you and my father think about today?"
Thinking of the past, Ling Pingzhi's eyes became a little confused. He and the then King Ruyang almost grew up together. .So at that time, King Ruyang failed to inherit the throne, and he always felt injustice in his heart, but King Ruyang himself had no obsession with the throne, and often advised him that everything was destined by God.
What can be exchanged?
King Ruyang returned to the west because of the former emperor's small stomach and chicken intestines, and he just wanted to find a truth, but he hurt his wife and countless brothers. He survived by luck, but he couldn't forget the hatred in his heart, and the former emperor's blood was not worthy of inheritance at all. The throne, rule the world.So ever since Sima He returned to the fief, he secretly found the young Sima He, and has been planning to this day.
Now, everything will end today.
After regaining his senses, Ling Pingzhi said angrily: "How can I see today, but if I knew today, I would definitely not let the former emperor ascend the throne back then!"
After a pause, Ling Pingzhi looked at Sima He and said seriously: "I know that you are not interested in the throne. Brother Sima mentioned to me that you are more unruly by nature and don't like restraint. The throne is not suitable for you, but This is your mission. This is the price they should pay! Otherwise, how can Brother Sima rest in peace?!"
A dark light flashed in Sima He's eyes. He had heard such words countless times since he was sensible. In the past, Ling Pingzhi was filled with righteous indignation when he talked about the past, and wished he could rush to the capital to kill the late emperor. His hatred remained undiminished.
I don't know if he saw Sima He's hesitation, Ling Qi urged: "It's not too late, the prince should act earlier, don't miss the opportunity!"
Sima He looked up at the dark night silently, thinking in his heart, let all the hatred be settled today.
"attack!--"
Due to his surprise and unpreparedness, Sima He quickly led his men to break through the first palace gate, without even causing too many casualties.
There was an urgent sound of drumming in the inner courtyard of the palace, and everyone in the capital could no longer sleep peacefully in the dark night. They all got up to check what happened, and saw that the direction of the palace was brightly lit, like the dawn of the east.
Sima He led the troops to the second palace gate. At this time, all the people brought by Sima He were caught between the first palace gate and the second palace gate, but Sima He and others did not realize it at this time. The first palace gate was closed by someone at some point, and he just wanted to launch an attack to break through the second palace gate.
When Sima He found out that he failed to break through the second palace gate with nearly [-] soldiers, he finally realized that something was wrong.He looked back at the palace gate when he came, only to find that there were very few corpses on the ground.
"Uncle Ling!"
Ling Pingzhi shouted "Yes", and immediately ran to him with a knife in his hand, "My lord?"
Sima He pointed at the palace gate, and said bitterly: "Today we may have fallen for the trick!"
As the words fell, a large number of archers poured out from the originally empty palace wall, and countless arrows were shot from high places. Sima He watched helplessly as his men fell to the ground one by one.
Then, fireballs were thrown from the sky one by one, and many people were crushed to a pulp before they could dodge.
The situation of not being able to advance and not being able to retreat made Sima He and his party truly vulnerable.
Sima He was so angry that his hands were shaking, he gritted his teeth and said, "Sima Yi!"
Ling Pingzhi also realized that something was wrong. Normally, the defense of the imperial palace would not be equipped with so many archers so quickly. It can only be said that they have been prepared for a long time, please enter the urn!
Ling Pingzhi said: "My lord, what should we do now?"
Sima He thought for a while and said, "Either attack and take a gamble, or retreat and make a long-term plan."
While blocking the flying arrows, Ling Pingzhi said: "No matter which side you choose, Sima Yi will use today's events to attack you, my lord. But I think if they know that we will come today, then no matter whether they come in or out, wait It's definitely not going to be an easy road for us."
Sima He also knew that the situation was urgent, and scolded: "Zhao Laiyi! Where is she?!"
Ling Pingzhi also knew that if their plan was leaked, it could only be Zhao Laiyi, but now Zhao Laiyi must have slipped away, so where can they find it.
Sima He had probably never been betrayed by anyone, and he was furious. Ling Pingzhi could only persuade him: "My lord, how to get rid of this situation is the most important thing at this time. We can think about the rest after we leave."
Sima He also knew that Ling Pingzhi was telling the truth. Seeing the countless casualties he brought with him, he never understood why he believed Zhao Laiyi's words that day!
Sima He quickly made a decision, "The convener breaks through and leaves the palace immediately!"
With the green hills still there, there is no need to worry about no firewood, and I don't know the situation in the palace, so there may be a way out of the palace.
"Yes!"
Ling Pingzhi immediately ordered everyone to turn around and conquer the palace gate they broke through just now, which is also ironic. The palace gate they broke through without any effort now becomes even more difficult to break through again.
"Guo Chan!"
Sima He yelled angrily, he knew that Guo Chan must have planned this situation today, how could that woman Zhao Laiyi be able to persuade her because she had no advantage at all.And he saw that Zhao Laiyi's thoughts on Guo Chan were probably true, otherwise, how could he propose to besiege Xuanpinghou's mansion? He wanted to see if Guo Chan knew about it!
The next moment, Sima He saw Guo Chan's heroic figure appearing on the palace wall.
Guo Chan said indifferently: "King Ruyang, don't come here without any harm."
Seeing her victorious attitude, Sima He felt angry, "Do you think you have won?"
Guo Chan looked at Sima He, his battle robe was stained red with blood, and his eyes were full of murderous intent. She said coldly, "I only know that you can't leave the palace alive today!"
Sima He said: "At this time, the situation in Xuanpinghou's mansion must not be much better! If I die, it would be a good choice to drag everyone in your mansion to be buried with me!"
Guo Chan was taken aback, and then thought that the Xuanpinghou's mansion could not be easily breached because of the arrangements.
Seeing Guo Chan's disbelief, Sima He sighed: "To be honest, I didn't expect that woman Zhao Laiyi to be so scheming, she lied to me and you too."
After a pause, Sima He said again: "Zhao Laiyi said that she wants you to be her... um? How should I describe it? Maybe a bed partner or a bed warmer? Haha! I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it. At this moment, Lu Jinyan must have been captured by Zhao Laiyi as a prisoner, but I don't know what she will do to Lu Jinyan. Think about it, such a delicate flower, what a pity."
Sima He's words shocked everyone. Huo Rufeng glanced at Guo Chan, whose face was frosty, and immediately scolded the Imperial Forest Army who were distracted by Sima He's words.
Guo Chan has been sending people to monitor the situation in the Hou Mansion today, and she has never seen the signal bomb she sent to Lu Jinyan so far. Is it all right or the incident happened suddenly and the signal bomb was too late...
Even if someone who was sure of the arrangements would never allow Sima He's men to capture the Hou Mansion, Guo Chan couldn't help but start to feel worried at this moment.
Huo Rufeng, who had been paying attention to Guo Chan all the time, saw her expression, and said in a deep voice: "Princess, the most urgent thing right now is to quickly resolve the rebellion here, so that we can get out of the palace and save the crisis of the Hou Mansion!"
Guo Chan withdrew her thoughts and nodded heavily, "Well, Commander Huo said yes! I was distracted for a while."
Seeing her calm down, Huo Rufeng immediately ordered the Imperial Forest Army to launch a new round of attack, without giving Sima He the slightest chance to breathe.
In the previous effort, Sima He had brought people back to the first palace gate, but soldiers were densely packed on the originally empty palace wall, and the intensive and fierce offensive made it difficult for Sima He and others to parry.
Guo Chan said in a deep voice: "Sima He, you should be clear that you have no chance of escaping from here today. I advise you to surrender, so that whether it is Princess Ruyang, Prince Ruyang's son or the people present, the emperor can still open the net." one side!"
Sima He was not one to admit defeat easily, he said in a trembling voice, "Immediately break through this palace gate and go out. This king promises to bring you back to your hometown safely!"
"Yes, my lord!"
Seeing this, Guo Chan lowered her face and said in a cold voice, "Kill all the rebels!"
After the words fell, Ling Pingzhi flew to the palace wall, trying to shake the situation with his own strength.His martial arts were so strong that he killed dozens of people in a short time.
Guo Chan said, "Bring the arrow!"
After the words fell, someone immediately handed a bow and arrow, and Guo Chan took it and aimed it at Ling Pingzhi.
An arrow was fired, and Ling Pingzhi suffered pain from the arrow in his shoulder, and stepped back several times, while blocking the attack.
Guo Chan was about to shoot another arrow when he heard Huo Rufeng's shout.
"careful!"
Throwing the bow and arrow in his hand, Guo Chan immediately pulled out the sword on his waist, barely parrying the incoming arrow.Immediately, she stood on the towering palace wall and looked coldly at Sima He who was also looking at her.
Sima He's eyes glowed with fire, seeming to be provocative or angry.
After a while, Guo Chan looked away and asked, "Has General Jin arrived yet?!"
Huo Rufeng said: "If you calculate the time, it should be almost here."
At this moment, the shouts outside the palace gate broke the sky!
It's Jin Lu's soldiers who have arrived!
Before the change of the vassal king, Sima Yi sent many soldiers and horses to the pass to frighten them. Jin Lu was among them, and he had not returned for a long time. It is not a problem for Sima He and his party to wipe out.
Sima He obviously realized it too, his face was flustered, and for the first time he felt an uncontrollable uneasiness.
Ling Pingzhi flew down the palace wall and said anxiously: "My lord, Jin Lu has arrived with a large number of soldiers! If we break through, we will only face Jin Lu's soldiers!"
Sima He clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. There were fewer and fewer people around him. It was undoubtedly a desperate situation for them at this time.
"Uncle Ling, I'm afraid we'll be here today." Sima He looked helplessly at the palace, "I'm sorry."
At this moment, Ling Pingzhi's eyes were bloodshot, and he couldn't help crying when he looked at Sima He.He watched Sima He grow up, but he didn't pay much attention to his biological son, so Sima He was more like him, and Ling Qi was more like his father.
"My lord, I'm sorry for you." Ling Pingzhi felt an indelible guilt, which was exactly the same as the guilt he felt for the death of King Ruyang back then.
Guo Chan was paying attention to the movement of the two of them, and was hesitating whether to open the palace gate and let the Imperial Forest Army join the battle.
Suddenly a palm fell from the shoulder, she turned her head, it was her father Xuan Pinghou.
Guo Chan was overjoyed, "Father, you're back?!"
Xuan Pinghou glanced at her, and slowly said: "I'm here, you should leave the palace first."
Guo Chan was taken aback, "Have you been back to the house?"
"Jinyan was taken away."
After the words fell, Guo Chan's sword let out a whimper.
"I'll leave the palace first!"
Seeing that the person had already flown down under the palace wall, Huo Rufeng looked at her back and sighed.
Naturally, the way out of the palace was not the only one that Sima He came in, it was just a detour out of the palace by using the back mountain.
Obviously Guo Chan couldn't wait for a moment.
Xuan Pinghou patted Huo Rufeng's shoulder, "Okay, it's almost dawn, let's end it as soon as possible."
Huo Rufeng withdrew his gaze and said, "Yes, Lord Hou!"
Xuan Pinghou nodded, and then ordered: "Bring him up!"
When Huo Rufeng saw Princess Ruyang and Prince Ruyang's son, he couldn't help but look at Xuan Pinghou in surprise.
Xuan Pinghou didn't change his face, and sighed: "Sometimes it is necessary to do extraordinary things."
"Pass down the emperor's oral order!——"
"Sima He, the king of Ruyang, rebelled with his army today. I am deeply saddened, but I think of brotherhood. If I immediately surrender and put down the ice blade in my hand, I will give it lightly!"
Xuan Pinghou used his internal strength, and everyone present could hear him clearly.
Xuan Pinghou pointed to Princess Ruyang and Prince Ruyang's son, and said calmly: "Push them to the front and drive them with a knife."
Princess Ruyang refused and was pushed hard. She said angrily: "I never thought that Xuan Pinghou, who always prides himself on being righteous, would do such things to bully women and children today."
Prince Ruyang's son saw the corpses floating under the palace wall, and cried out in fear.
Xuan Pinghou pointed to the son of Prince Ruyang and suddenly said, "Princess Jingxiu was about this age when she died."
Princess Ruyang was startled, but she was speechless.
Xuan Pinghou walked up to the son and picked him up, pointed to Sima He below, and said kindly: "My son, take a look, your father is right below, are you afraid, if you are afraid, please beg your father , let him save you. He will definitely save you."
Prince Ruyang's son was just a child, and when he heard this, he immediately howled, "Father! Father! Save the child, save the child!! The child is afraid!"
At this time, Xuan Ping Hou turned to look at Princess Ruyang, looked at her furious expression, and said: "This Marquis advises the princess not to act impulsively, otherwise I promise you will regret it."
Princess Ruyang looked at the child in his arms and nodded silently.She took two steps forward, just in time to see Sima He. At this moment, Sima He was a little embarrassed and was glaring at this place.
Ling Pingzhi said: "My lord, my concubine and son are taken into captivity, what should I do?"
Sima He stared at the mother and son for a long time, then shouted angrily, "What else can I do?!"
When the words fell, the sword in his hand fell to the ground.
Seeing this, Ling Pingzhi made a gesture, and the people brought by Sima He threw away their weapons one after another.
Only then did Xuan Pinghou let go of Prince Ruyang's son, and the little son immediately threw himself into his mother's arms, and the mother and son cried together.
Xuan Pinghou waved his hand sideways and said, "Huo Rufeng, you lead people to clean up the mess below, and imprison Sima He, waiting for the emperor's punishment."
Huo Rufeng replied: "Yes, I will handle it immediately!"
The mother and son were still crying like tears, Xuan Pinghou went to arrest the two and bring them to the capital according to the arrangement, not really to push the two to death, but just taking advantage of the trend, and can end the matter early.
Xuan Pinghou sighed and persuaded: "Princess, the emperor is not a cruel person, but you have done too much this time. Besides, the grievances of the previous generation should not be borne by the emperor, so please persuade King Ruyang , maybe there is still a glimmer of life."
Princess Ruyang was taken aback, and looked up at Xuan Ping Hou, but Xuan Ping Hou turned to face the east. At this time, a round of red sun was gradually rising, and the night was dyed with morning light.
Guo Chan flew away from the palace all the way, and ran into Dongqing who had just come out of the palace.
As soon as Dongqing saw her, she said anxiously: "Princess!—"
Guo Chan interrupted her, "I already know what Jinyan said, what's the specific situation now?!"
"It's the fifth princess!" Dongqing said: "The fifth princess entered the mansion at night with the excuse of you and the county horse, and then asked the county horse to send her out of the mansion. Unexpectedly, the people guarding Sima He outside the mansion killed the guards. , took away the county horse!"
Guo Chan said angrily: "Where are the hidden guards arranged?! Didn't they find any abnormalities one by one?!"
Dongqing knew that the hidden guards were negligent, but she still couldn't help explaining for them: "Sima He's men were half an hour earlier than expected, our men were not prepared in time, and the county horse was subdued and there was no time to send out the signal bomb. By the time the hidden guards realized something was wrong, the county horse had already been taken away!"
Guo Chan glared, "Zhao Laiyi! Sima Ting!"
Today, she wondered why Sima He was late, and it turned out that Zhao Laiyi was behind it, otherwise how could she have missed Sima Ting's matter!If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have let Sima Ting go!
Dongqing's eyes hesitated, looking at Guo Chan hesitating to speak.
"Is there anything else you haven't told me?"
Dongqing said: "When Sima He's people were found, they were all lying outside the Hou's mansion. They seemed to have been drugged. Zhao Laiyi, Fifth Princess and others were not found among them."
Dongqing knew that Zhao Laiyi had other thoughts about the princess, but she never thought that she would catch the county horse so madly.The county horse and the princess have a very deep relationship, and now the princess is afraid that Zhao Laiyi will be cut into pieces.She prayed silently in her heart that Zhao Laiyi must not do anything too outrageous.
Guo Chan said coldly: "Immediately order everyone to search for Zhao Laiyi's whereabouts! Be sure to give the princess an hour to find it!"
Dongqing knew that the princess was really angry, and immediately responded: "This subordinate understands!"
"After the arrangements are made, you go to Wen Qing to get the antidote first, and then go back home to meet me."
"Yes!"
After Dongqing left, Guo Chan finally showed a worried look on her face. She looked at Dongfang's pale belly and slowly clenched her hands into fists.
Sincerely, you must not have an accident!
At this time, Lu Jinyan's situation is considered safe. After she was taken away by Zhao Laiyi, she was locked in this room, but there were guards on all sides. She had no martial arts, so she couldn't escape at all.
Zhao Laiyi didn't hide it from her at all, this place is about a Zhuangzi on the outskirts of the capital city, judging from the decoration here, there should be people living there all the time, she guessed that this is the place where Sima He hid before.
She can probably guess Zhao Laiyi's thoughts. First, she pretended to cooperate with Guo Chan to betray Sima He, but at the last moment, she bit them again. It was too scheming.
"I've seen Miss."
"Is it safe for people inside?"
"Miss Hui, she has been inside."
Hearing the conversation, Lu Jinyan knew it was Zhao Laiyi.
Sure enough, the next moment the door opened and Zhao Laiyi walked in slowly.
Seeing her, Lu Jinyan said indifferently: "Miss Zhao is really playing it cleverly?"
Zhao Laiyi heard the sarcasm in Lu Jin's words, but the winner is the greatest, so what can she do?
She took two steps forward, "Lu...no, Miss Ren doesn't seem to be worried about her situation?"
"Why am I worried?" Lu Jinyan looked at her and said with a smile: "Ms. Zhao should want to get the antidote even more, otherwise in the end, no matter what, she will die alone. People die, but nothing is left."
Hearing this, Zhao Laiyi couldn't help thinking of the pain that had been tormenting her recently. She knew that Guo Chan would never believe her, but she didn't expect Guo Chan to give her such a strong poison.
Thinking of her own pain, Zhao Laiyi's complexion became uneasy, and she said angrily: "If it is really impossible, I don't mind dying with you!"
Lu Jinyan said with a smile: "Actually, Ms. Zhao doesn't have to work so hard. Originally, as long as you follow the previous plan, Achan will definitely give you the antidote and let you go. It's a pity..."
Said Lu Jinyan shook his head.
"What a pity?!"
"It's a pity that you think you are smart!" Lu Jinyan said slowly: "Do you think she is a person who likes to be manipulated and teased? Ms. Zhao still underestimated Achan."
Lu Jinyan's tone seemed to be the person who knew Guo Chan best in the world. Zhao Laiyi felt that Lu Jinyan was showing off the intimacy between her and Guo Chan in front of her at this time.
"Guess, if you have a few more scars on your face, will she still love you?" Zhao Laiyi thought viciously: "Or if she knows that you have been violated by others, will she still treat you as before?" ?”
Lu Jinyan's face turned pale, but he still maintained his superficial composure.
Zhao Laiyi didn't miss the panic in her eyes, and she said proudly: "So I advise you to be quiet, otherwise, whether it is the handsome Lu Houye or the lovely Miss Ren, as long as I am unhappy, I will be happy at that time." None exist."
Lu Jinyan silently watched Zhao Laiyi leave triumphantly, with deep anxiety in her heart. She saw seriousness and madness in Zhao Laiyi's eyes just now. Maybe Zhao Laiyi didn't just say it casually, she really wanted to do it then!
The panic in her heart overwhelmed her, and she squatted on the ground and curled up together.
"Achan, where are you?"
—
"I want to leave! Let me go!"
After Sima Ting and Zhao Laiyi came here together, they were imprisoned. She regretted endlessly in her heart. She knew that she should not have agreed to Zhao Laiyi's lobbying to work for Sima He.
These days, there are more and more papers about her impeachment. She just doesn't understand why those old things always hold her tightly.It's just playing with a few maidservants, and occasionally some innocent women, why are they doing this? !She just wanted to live freely, and those people wanted to deprive her of her only pleasure.
On the other hand, Guo Chan spends his time with Lu Jinyan openly and aboveboard, and the two of them are very close, even at places like palace banquets.As for her, she didn't dare to bring a concubine with her, because the queen mother didn't like it, and because the officials didn't like it!
Sima Ting was so tired from screaming that she angrily threw the things in the room all over the place.
According to Zhao Laiyi, Sima He will definitely fail.Originally, she wanted to sneak back to the mansion, and when everything was over, pretend she didn't know anything, and blame everything on Zhao Laiyi, but she didn't expect Zhao Laiyi to see through her thoughts and arrest her here.
She doesn't want to be locked up in the mansion for the rest of her life or suffer Guo Chan's boundless revenge. She knows that Guo Chan will not let her go easily once he commits a crime against her!
"What's it called?! I'll tell you to take care of you again!"
The door was pushed open suddenly, and Sima Ting saw three fierce Turkic men walking in, she couldn't help but took a few steps back, and tugged on her originally wide skirt.
The three Turkic people looked at each other in blank dismay. The five princesses did not look like women from the Central Plains, but more like their Turkic women. They were enchanting and plump, and looked extremely beautiful.
"Get out!" Sima Ting couldn't see their salivating eyes, she just felt disgusted all over her body.She kept backing away, yelling, "Get out! Get out! I am the fifth princess!"
However, the three of them didn't care about her yelling at all, and rushed forward, picked her up and walked into the inner room.Sima Ting panicked and wanted to break free, but how could she, a weak woman, withstand the strength of three people.
Sima Ting's yard was right next to Nian'er, she heard the woman's cries clearly from the side, she covered her ears, but found that she couldn't resist the sound at all.
In a trance, she heard Ling Qi's voice.
"Nian'er, Nian'er."
After several times, she realized that it was not a hallucination, turned around, and Ling Qi was right behind her.
"Husband!" Nian'er was a little excited when she saw Ling Qi come back, "You're back, is everything going well?"
Ling Qi told her about the collusion between Zhao Laiyi and Guo Chan with a sullen face, but Nian'er was shocked when she heard it. It turned out that Zhao Laiyi told her to tell her the information he got from Ling Qi in time because she wanted to tell Guo Chan!
Nian'er's face turned pale, Ling Qi said: "Nian'er, what's wrong?"
Hearing this, Nian'er immediately shook her head in a panic, lowering her head to cover up her guilty conscience.
Ling Qi didn't think too much, and sighed: "Father and the others should have been caught. I came back to take you out of here, and secondly, to rescue Lu Jinyan."
"Master Lu? Why is she here?"
Ling Qi said: "She was caught here by Zhao Laiyi. I followed her all the way, but I didn't expect her to come back here."
As he said that, Ling Qi thought, fortunately Zhao Laiyi came back here, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sneak in easily.
Nian'er knew that Lu Jinyan was actually Ren Suyi, the woman Ling Qi had been thinking about day and night, and when she heard that he was coming back to save her, she felt sore in her heart.
"But this place has been controlled by Zhao Laiyi, we are weak, how can we rescue Lu Houye." Nian'er persuaded in a low voice: "Why don't we leave here first, and then notify the princess to come and save people."
Ling Qi also heard the voice from the side, and he said with an ugly face: "It will only delay the time, and I don't know what will happen at that time. In this way, I will take you out of the mansion first, and you will go out of the city directly after you leave here." , wait for me at the inn ten miles away, and then I will meet you after I come back and rescue her."
Seeing his resolute expression, Nian'er knew in her heart that it would be futile to persuade him, so she nodded.
At this time, the maid serving Nian'er came in, Ling Qi immediately knocked her unconscious.He caught a glimpse of the maid's clothes, and immediately said: "Nian'er, you change into her clothes."
Nian'er nodded.
Ling Qi was originally wearing armor, which was too conspicuous, so he took advantage of this time to change into a simple attire, and rolled up his trousers to look like a boy.
After the two changed their clothes, they immediately left here. Before leaving, Ling Qi went to the room where the maid lived to get a set of clothes.
Because of living here for a long time, Ling Qi is very familiar with this place, so he sent Nian'er out and came back soon.
He hid in the dark and observed, and found a courtyard with the strictest security, which was the courtyard where Sima He lived before, so he approached quietly, and found that this place was different, except that there were dozens of people guarding outside the courtyard, watching them The clothes are all Turkic people.
Along the way, he didn't find any of Sima He's guards, only some of the maidservants who were serving here were still there, presumably the rest were cleaned up by Zhao Laiyi's men.
The defense is tight, Ling Qi knows that it is impossible to rescue Lu Jinyan with his own strength, so he has been hiding in the dark looking for opportunities, but Zhao Laiyi is obviously very worried about Lu Jinyan, even though Lu Jinyan is just a woman with no strength to restrain a chicken, There are at least 30 people guarding the yard.
After two hours, Ling Qi still didn't find the opportunity, but luckily nothing else happened.
At this time, Zhao Laiyi brought someone.
Ling Qi hid in the dark and looked at the person behind Zhao Laiyi in surprise. The person was extremely ugly, his face was covered with wrinkles, he walked curled up, and his clothes were torn. Even Ling Qi felt disgusted when he saw it.
He watched Zhao Laiyi lead her into the room where Lu Jinyan was being held, and couldn't help but widen his eyes.
He remembered the woman's desperate cry before, because Sima Ting was arrested by Zhao Laiyi because of her evil intentions, so Ling Qi had no plan to save Sima Ting at all, but what was in front of him was Lu Jinyan, how could he hold back!
Even if you are weak, if you can procrastinate, procrastinate, there is always a chance.
Lu Jinyan looked at the people brought by Zhao Laiyi and immediately understood her plan. She secretly put her hands behind her back and looked at Zhao Laiyi vigilantly.
Zhao Laiyi looked at her like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, "To be honest, I didn't have this plan at first, but I just learned something and got some inspiration, so I decided to give you a big gift."
Zhao Laiyi couldn't help but get a little excited thinking about the next scene. She pretended to cough twice, and said to the people behind her: "I will leave this person to you. You should know how to do it."
The people behind looked at Lu Jinyan and said, "But isn't this a man?"
The voice was hoarse and incomprehensible, and it made people sick at first hearing. Lu Jinyan thought that this person was a beggar that Zhao Laiyi had someone randomly dragged from the street, with a stench all over his body.
Zhao Laiyi laughed twice, "What man, this is a real daughter. Please be content, this is your great blessing!"
Hearing this, the man finally showed a wretched smile, "The villain knows it, and I will definitely do good things for you!"
To be able to take money and enjoy such a woman is simply a pie that fell from the sky.
Zhao Laiyi looked at Lu Jinyan maliciously, she wanted to see what would happen to Lu Jinyan after such a thing?
Lu Jin said, "Aren't you afraid?"
Zhao Laiyi knew that Lu Jinyan was asking her if she was afraid of Guo Chan's revenge, she smiled and said: "At that time, I will exchange you for the antidote and the eldest prince, and make you faint. When you wake up, tell Guo Chan that we left the city early, what are you afraid of? !"
After the words fell, Zhao Laiyi told the man, "Hurry up!"
"The villain will go here, go here."
When that person passed by Zhao Laiyi, she smelled a stench and couldn't help covering her nose. She didn't know where they found him, it was extremely disgusting.
Looking at this scene, Zhao Laiyi was a little excited and a little disgusted, and finally she chose to leave here, not because she didn't want to see Lu Jinyan being bullied, but because he was so disgusting that she couldn't help but want to vomit.
As soon as Zhao Laiyi left, the beggar couldn't hide the dirty thoughts in his heart, and quickly approached Lu Jinyan.Lu Jinyan hid back with his hands behind his back, until he hid in a corner, there was no way to avoid it, the beggar's gray eyes glowed with a disgusting light, Lu Jinyan suppressed his nausea and waited for him to approach.
"Beauty..."
"You are beautiful!" Lu Jinyan angrily inserted the dagger hidden in her sleeve into the chest of the person in front of her. She didn't hesitate at all, she knew that if she didn't do something cruel, she must be the one who regretted it in the end!
The beggar never thought that he would be killed, and fell down with his eyes wide open.
Ling Qi was surprised when he jumped in from the window and saw this scene.
Lu Jinyan was also surprised, "Ling Qi, why are you here?!"
"I'm here to rescue you!"
Lu Jinyan looked at him and said, "Have you thought it through?"
Ling Qi was startled, and realized that Lu Jinyan was suspicious of him, and said with a wry smile, "I know I made a big mistake, and I can't make up for it, but I want to save you."
Lu Jinyan thought for a while and said, "So, thank you very much."
It would be safer to fall into the hands of Ling Qi than to fall into the hands of a lunatic like Zhao Laiyi.
"You don't have to thank me."
It was Lu Jinyan who reminded him earlier that his grandfather had always hoped that he would be a good general who would serve the country loyally and carry forward the Ling family.Grandfather's death was to stop his father's revenge. Even though grandfather knew that the emperor was not benevolent, he felt that the current emperor was a trustworthy person, so he chose to give up his hatred and his life.
Before his death, his grandfather entrusted Guo Chan with the sole purpose that Guo Chan could protect himself after his father's crimes were exposed in the future, but he didn't want to. He obeyed his father's arrangement and did many wrong things.
Lu Jinyan poked her head out of the window where Ling Qi came in, and there were several people guarding the front of the yard. She frowned and said, "How do we get out? There are so many Turkic people guarding here."
Ling Qi said, "Put this on first."
It was only then that Lu Jinyan noticed that Ling Qi was dressed as a follower, and he was still holding a bundle in his hand.
"This is the maid's clothes here. You change them first. We slipped out of the backyard. I killed the person guarding the backyard and hid them. They haven't been found yet. We can leave from there."
Lu Jinyan nodded and said, "I'm going to change clothes, wait a moment."
Lu Jinyan went into the inner room with the bag in his arms, and changed it out after a while.
Ling Qi was stunned, he hadn't seen her dress up as a daughter for a long time.
Lu Jinyan looked at him, "What?"
Ling Qi shook his head, "It's okay, let's go quickly."
"it is good."
The two of them turned over from the window, and Ling Qi took out a handful from nowhere.
