Imperial City Chapter 11 Farewell to Jun

Bao Zheng is for the world, for justice, for morality, defying the powerful, clearing up the grievances of the people, all the corrupt officials, heinous people, the name of Kaifeng Mansion Qingtian is also praised by the people.

Because of this, Nan Xia Zhan Zhao abandoned the rivers and lakes and entered the temple to help Qingtian, which became a good story for a while.

Hua Qianying actually went to deal with Bao Zheng, if Bao Zheng made any mistakes, then he...

Yunying thought to herself, her eyes trembled, she looked at Hua Qianying and said seriously, "Master Bao is a rare and good official, and he always puts the welfare of the people first, how can you harm him?"

"Whether Bao Zheng is a good official or not has nothing to do with me?" Hua Qianying snorted coldly, only thinking that what Yunying said was extremely ridiculous.

"It's me you have to deal with, why bother to involve others. The Lord wants me to go back, so I will, but you have to give me the antidote first."

As soon as the words finished, Qin Mu suddenly said, "Qianying, give her the antidote."

"Brother Qin Mu, how do you still protect her now? King Yelu has long wanted to kill her for the disaster she caused. You will only pay yourself for it."

Seeing that Qin Mu was still defending Yunying, Hua Qianying stomped her feet angrily.She thought of him everywhere, but he didn't appreciate it at all.

Yunying said: "If you are willing to hand over the antidote, I will agree to any conditions."

"That's what you said." Hua Qianying was overjoyed, and took out something from her waist purse and placed it on the table.

This thing is about an inch in size, shaped like a teardrop, and is crystal clear, but the place it touches is covered with a thin layer of frost in just a moment.Hua Qianying was used to using poison, and the two of them had seen quite a few in their daily life, but this was the first time they had seen this thing, but they were already overwhelmed by the cold air it emitted.

"This is the latest mysterious ice developed by the master. It is extremely cold and poisonous." Hua Qianying paused, her voice became much softer, "But the antidote has not been developed yet."

When Qin Mu heard this, he frowned and said, "What do you use the unsolvable □□?"

"Actually, it's not completely unsolvable. The master is developing it, but it's not finished yet." Hua Qianying pouted her lips and turned to Yunying, "If you are willing to try the medicine, I will have a way to convince King Yelu. If I don't give you the antidote You will die, and you will never be able to leave me in this life. I believe that King Yelu will not doubt me, so you can stay in Liao Kingdom obediently, and Brother Qin Mu will not be punished, how about it?"

"Okay, I promise you." Yunying nodded, and picked up Xuanbing without hesitation.

Seeing that she was about to take it, Hua Qianying hurriedly said, "This is not edible. You can only put Xuanbing somewhere in your body, and let the poison slowly seep into your body, so that you have enough time to go back to see my master."

Glancing at Qin Mu secretly, seeing his cold face, he added: "I have no intention of taking your life, but if you go back unscathed, King Yelu won't be able to explain it..."

"Master Bao..."

"If you follow this, the poison will start to invade the body after two days, and I will detoxify Bao Zheng when I see it."

After going back that night, Yunying put the black ice on her waist close to her skin. The poisonous fruit of the Poison King is really powerful, and it just started to seep in. She already felt extremely cold in her body, and she needed to use her internal energy to adjust her breath to suppress the cold poison. .

Early the next morning, Qin Mu came to Qingyue Thatched Cottage with Hua Qianying.

"What do you think?" Qin Mu stepped into the room, and saw Yunying sitting on the couch practicing kung fu, her face was pale, and her slender body made him feel distressed.

Yunying slowly opened her eyes, and smiled faintly: "It's okay."

"Hmph, I know you are distressed." Hua Qianying muttered angrily while sitting aside, "Don't worry, master will take off the Xuanbing after going back and recuperate for a while, and she will be fine. Xuanbing doesn't enter the body, and the poison won't kill her .”

Yunying asked, "How is Master Bao?"

Hua Qianying sighed: "The Kaifeng Mansion is heavily guarded these days, and Zhan Zhao never leaves. I can't find a chance to detoxify Bao Zheng." Then she complained, "This Zhan Zhao is guarding, and I can't do anything to save him. Bao Zheng is really about to die."

Yunying pursed her lips tightly, lowered her eyes and stood upright, raised her eyes after a while and said: "I will lure him away, he will not be able to return to Kaifeng Mansion before midnight tonight."

Qin Mu shook his head: "No way. How can you fight him in this situation?"

"Brother Qin, you take Yinling to the Daming Mansion first, and I will meet you later." Yunying met his gaze and said quietly, "Since he doubted me, but he didn't tell me, there is always something wrong with me." The love is there. He won't do anything to me."

Qin Mu frowned and said, "You trust him that much?"

She couldn't answer this question, Zhan Zhao already guessed that she was deceiving him, why didn't she tell the truth, she couldn't say for sure, but she knew that Bao Zheng would never die because of her.

Yunying's eyes were gloomy, she stood silent for a while, and said, "There will be a break between me and him sooner or later."

The night sky was dark, starless and moonless.

Yunying looked at everything in the thatched cottage alone, recalling the past bits and pieces, the man in green shirt he met once in Chenzhou, the figure in red clothes who met here again, the night of fireworks in the gazebo by the lake, his smile, his words, everything about him...

... You and him are not on the same side... Why are you bothering...

...If he knows your identity...he will definitely leave you...

How come I don't know what I'm looking forward to, what I expect extravagantly, what I'm nostalgic for...

Flicking the strings with her slender fingers, she smiled bitterly. Although the fireworks are beautiful, they are only a flash in the pan after all. It's time to wake up...

Tonight, it's time to make a break.

Bao Zheng had been in a coma for five days, Gongsun Ce and the imperial doctor were helpless, if he said he was poisoned, he couldn't detect the symptoms of poisoning, if he said he was fine, there is no reason why he would fall into a coma for five days.

In the past few days, Bao Zheng's breath has become weaker and weaker, and he may not last long.

Zhan Zhao was on the sidelines, anxious: "Mr. Gongsun, there is nothing you can do?"

Gongsun Ce checked his pulse and shook his head: "My lord's symptoms are similar to Zhan Weiwei's before... The student really doesn't know what kind of poison it is caused by."

Zhan Zhao said again: "Sir, you are very knowledgeable, don't you have any clue?"

Gongsun Ce sighed: "Students have limited learning in their lives. If we talk about capable people and strange people, there are many people who live in seclusion outside the pass."

"Outside the pass..." Zhan Zhao seemed to have thought of something, "Could it be related to the murder of the envoy?"

Gongsun Ce said: "Although there is no evidence, the murder of your lord at this time...maybe it has something to do with it."

Zhan Zhao pursed his lower lip, tightly clenched the giant jaw with his right hand, and secretly thought: Could it be... related to her?

At this time, there was a sudden commotion in the mansion, "There is an assassin! Catch the assassin!"

Hearing the sound, Zhan Zhao rushed out of the house and turned into the backyard corridor, but saw a masked man in black fighting with the servants in the mansion, the guards' weapons had been knocked to the ground, and several cuts had been made on their clothes.The man in black seemed to be waving something in his hands, and where the silver light touched, there were already thin cracks.

There is only one person he knows who can cause this scar.

Zhan Zhao's expression froze, he jumped up in the air, and slashed at the man in black with his palm.The man in black leaped back, hooked his toes, and kicked a big knife towards Zhan Zhao.When Zhan Zhao backed away, the man in black had already climbed up the courtyard wall and jumped out.

The night was as cold as water, Zhan Zhao chased the figure in black to the eastern suburbs.

He was very familiar with this place, looked up at Qingyue Thatched Cottage, and strode into the courtyard.

The man in black stood in front of the piano platform in the grass pavilion, plucking the strings intermittently. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he took off his veil and turned to face the person coming up.

"It really is you." Zhan Zhao's expression was calm, his voice indifferent.

Yunying smiled wryly, "Didn't you already guess it?"

Zhan Zhao's eyes flickered, he stared at Yunying with a complicated expression, and walked slowly up to the grass pavilion, Yunying turned her face sideways and didn't look at him.

"Chen Zhou met you..."

"The mission is here."

"I met you in the capital..."

"The mission is here..."

"Is it Zhou Shilang's roster?..."

Yunying stood still with downcast eyes, but did not answer.

"The flower picker..."

"On a whim."

Zhan Zhao closed his eyes, his voice was hoarse and deep: "Hejian Mansion..."

Yunying said quietly: "I killed Xu Meng."

"Envoys and princesses..."

Yunying bit her lower lip tightly, it made no difference whether she recognized it or not.

Zhan Zhao thought that Yunying's failure to answer was acquiescing, so he opened his eyes, turned around, grabbed Yunying's shoulders with both hands, and forced her to face him.

At this moment, the distance between him and her was close at hand, but it was as if they were separated by heaven.

"Master Bao..."

Yunying met Zhan Zhao's eyes, and she could clearly see that he hoped to hear "no".She hesitated several times, hesitated to speak several times.However, it is a fact that she was sent by Yelv Zongqi to the Song Dynasty, and it is a fact that she is on a mission. She is hiding it from him... It is also a fact, and Bao Zheng was unconscious because of himself... It is also a fact.

For now, it doesn't make any difference whether the poison was placed by Hua Qianying or by herself.

Yunying choked her throat, and said two words after a long time: "It's me."

After tonight, she will never step into the Song Dynasty. If hatred can relieve him, let her bear everything and disappear from then on.

Zhan Zhao's hands trembled slightly, he slowly let go, and turned around, unable to see the expression on his face.

Her appearance came with a purpose. He never thought that those things and those people would have anything to do with her. When did he become so defenseless against her?Just because she took action to kill the wanted criminal when we first met?Or get rid of flower pickers for the girl's house?It actually made him think that she was a chivalrous person.

But the two clues obtained from the palace, it's not like he has never thought about the answer. Although he had doubts, he still had a little bit of luck in his heart, and Mr. Bao was poisoned by his hesitation in the end.

Now that she said it herself, it just cut off his delusion.

... Zhan did not expect that Chen Zhou would have the chance to meet the girl again after parting with Chen Zhou...

Encounter?Chance?Ha ha, things in the world are always inevitable.But he had completely forgotten such a simple truth.

"Fireworks... are bright and eye-catching, but they fascinate Zhan's eyes..."

In an instant, silver light shone, and there was a clang——

The sword is out of its sheath.

The violin is broken.

"In the past and present, between you and me, it's like a piano, and the friendship will last forever!"

Friendship is forever... Yunying's body shook suddenly, and she took half a step back.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhan Zhao turned his sword and reached Yunying's jade neck, angrily said: "Hand over the antidote."

Yunying raised her eyes to meet his gaze, it was an expression she had never seen before.It was disappointment, it was anger, and there were some expressions that she couldn't distinguish, but no matter what, they no longer had the warm eyes of the past.

Yunying closed her eyes, trying to hold back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes.

He hates her, isn't that what she wants?But when she really faced it, it was such a heartache... She took a few deep breaths and calmed down. All she could do now was to drag him as much as possible.

Yunying opened her eyes, pushed the giant gate away with one palm, and using her strength to spin sideways, she jumped into the courtyard.As soon as he landed on the ground, he felt the sword energy approaching, raised his right hand, and a silver thread wrapped around the Juque sword.

The silver thread came out from the silver bracelet on Yunying's bright wrist. It was slender and translucent. Zhan Zhao took a closer look and said coldly: "It turns out that the silver thread in the silver bracelet is a weapon. No wonder the Xu brothers and the flower pickers have fine hair on their bodies." A thin wound. Today, Qingfeng in Zhan Zhao's palm will master the girl's weapon."

Ju Que withdrew, having broken free from the entanglement of the silver thread, Zhan Zhao jumped up in the air, with sharp sword energy, directly hitting Yunying's face.Yunying stepped out of Yan Feiyue, narrowly avoided the blow, and at the same time swung her right hand, Yinsi drew a bright arc in front of her, forcing him to step back.

The sword light circulated, and the silver thread fluttered like a firefly. The two of them had fought for no less than fifty or sixty moves, and the moves were only fighting, and there was no ultimate move.It's just that it's not good for Yunying. It takes all of his strength to fight Zhan Zhao, and the cold air of Xuan Bing penetrates into his body again. Not only does he have to keep his true energy to resist the cold poison, but he also has to deal with Zhan Zhao.

Yunying's pale complexion made things worse, so it's better to make a quick decision.With a change of mind, the butterfly danced in the steps, and the light body was caught in the flashing light of the silver thread and the giant que, flickering.

Yinsi's moves are unpredictable, which is rare in his life. The change of moves at this moment made Zhan Zhao alert. He expected this move to be dangerous, and if he lost his mind, he would be defeated.However, he didn't understand why Yunying still had reservations during the offensive, but no matter what, Mr. Bao needed an antidote to save his life, and he would not show mercy.

In an instant, the wind moved swiftly, Yunying stepped out of Ling Boxian, and in a flash, she appeared in front of Zhan Zhao.All of a sudden, a silver light flashed, a silver thread wrapped around the Juque sword, Yun Ying took advantage of the situation and drew out her palm, injecting internal force into the palm, and silently attacked Zhan Zhao's chest.

Zhan Zhao has already dodged and is not in a hurry, and is about to accept this palm forcefully.

It's a pity that the zhenqi was activated too hard, and a burst of cold energy poured into the palm of his hand and instantly counterattacked himself.Yunying frowned slightly, her palm gradually retracted.

When a master fights, the victory or defeat is in an instant.Yun Ying's sudden change made Zhan Zhao see the flaw in the attack, with a urge of internal force, the sword body shook, Ju Que broke free from the silver thread, and with a low moan, it pierced directly into Yun Ying's waist.

The sword stayed in her body.

Zhan Zhao suddenly let go of the giant gate, staring blankly at the slender figure slowly falling down.

A heart-piercing pain ran through Yunying's whole body, she fell slowly, and the corners of her lips raised slightly.

It turns out that all kinds of obsessions are nothing but a mirror image after all.

Heart, only to feel pierced by a sharp arrow, it hurts more than the wound on the waist.

Yunying knelt on the ground, supporting her body with her hands, spewing blood, scarlet all over the ground, pulled out the scorpion, and pressed the wound tightly.The other hand reached into his bosom, took out a brown pill, and threw it, "You...you want...the antidote..."

Yunying braced herself, leaning against the big tree in the courtyard, with blood oozing from her lips, breathing weakly, she said word by word:

"Zhan Zhao... this sword... I... will return it to you... after today... and Jun... Molu..."

Zhan Zhao stared at the person in front of him, raised his hand slightly, as if he wanted to support her precarious body, but then slowly froze, his outstretched hand was stuck in mid-air, and never stretched forward.

Suddenly, a murderous aura burst out of the air, and a jade flute swirled towards him with lightning speed. From far to near, Zhan Zhao jumped back and retreated to the grass pavilion ten feet away.

The jade flute whirled around and was held in the hands of a man in a jade robe.After Qin Mu left, he felt uneasy all the time, before he arrived at the Daming Mansion, he turned back to have a look.Yunying's identity was found out, and Bao Zheng died frequently. He never believed that Zhan Zhao would be merciful.Now that she is subject to Xuan Bing, it is impossible for her to be Zhan Zhao's opponent.

The situation in the courtyard made him stunned, Yunying leaned against the tree like a breath, her hands pressed her waist, blood kept flowing from her slender fingers.

This sword did not hurt lightly!

He really expected it well.Qin Mu clenched his fists tightly, his eyes trembled, this silly girl...

"Brother Qin..." When Yunying saw the person coming, she smiled lightly, called out in a low voice, closed her eyes weakly, and slowly slid down the tree trunk.

Seeing that Yunying was seriously injured, Qin Mu didn't care about anything else, he stepped forward to stabilize her body, picked her up, and left Qingyue thatched cottage.

In the cold wind at night, Zhan Zhao stood aside, his expression seemed a little lost, but he regained his calm in an instant, walked to the side of the giant gate, bent down, saw the blood on the giant gate, and slightly stopped his outstretched hand.

Beside the spike of the sword, a ray of light flickered faintly, sweeping away the residual leaves, it turned out to be the jade qin.

Zhan Zhao picked up the giant que, put Yuqin in his arms, and flew back to Kaifeng mansion.

During these days when Bao Zheng was in a coma, a major event happened in the palace.

Concubine Pang was stabbed in the arm by an assassin dressed as a palace supervisor while enjoying the garden in the Imperial Garden. Concubine Zhang Guifei who was traveling with her was overly frightened and had a miscarriage. Totem tattoo, and the secret letter from the Liao envoy to Beijing was found on his body.

This matter has been deduced by many parties, revealing the assassination behavior of Xixia to destroy the friendship between Song and Liao.

The sudden death of the envoy should have been assassinated by an assassin. Princess Yuyang was most likely killed when she saw the assassin's flaw, but it was only an inference without any real evidence. In the end, no further clues could be found, and the murder case in the palace was closed.
