Sure enough, Master Cai's death was kept secret.
It is claimed to the public that he encountered a bandit on his way home from retirement, but the ministers are all human beings, and anyone can guess what is going on.
If someone else is the emperor, it may cause the anger of the ministers. But the emperor is Tantai Jhin. He said that killing people is killing people, without any ambiguity, without fame or shame.
No one can take this kind of person.
In short, I don't know who was the first to back down, and no one took the initiative to look for Tantai Jhin's bad luck.
Everything is in full swing, and in the blink of an eye, it's June.
The day before the enthronement ceremony, Su Su tried the phoenix robe. The gorgeous red phoenix robes were layered on top of each other, and the golden threads shone in the sun.
Thirty-six embroidered mothers had been busy for two months before they made this dress.
Even Nian Mu Ning had to admit that this dress was particularly beautiful.
Only after Su Su changed her clothes, someone reported that Ye Bingshang was here.
Ye Bingshang said: "The weather is good, do you want to go for a walk with the third sister?"
Her eyes were slightly red, and everyone could see that she must have cried. The palace ladies looked at Su Su and Ye Bingshang with sympathy in their eyes.
After His Majesty established this lady, he did not stay overnight. The lady is also quite pitiful.
Susu smiled in her heart: "Okay."
The two walked around the Imperial Garden, with Twenty White Yu following them closely.
Ye Bingshang said with a wry smile: "The third sister may think that I am here today to say something provocative. But in fact, when His Royal Highness King Xuan died, I understand that I am a blessing after all, and I can't compare to the third sister."
Susu said: "Blessings are thick and blessings are small. It depends on oneself to accumulate fate, and what is it to rely on others."
Ye Bingshang was slightly startled, nodded and said: "It's not bad to say that, it doesn't matter. The third sister will be the Queen of Da Zhou tomorrow. I want to ask the third sister for one thing. Could you please help me to ask Your Majesty for grace and let me go out? Gong? Whether it's to find another village to live outside, or let me go back to Xia, for me, it's a gift."
She looked at Su Su pleadingly and held Su Su's hand.
Susu withdrew her hand: "Mrs. Zhaohua wants to ask for grace, but she can go by herself, I'm afraid I can't help you much."
To Su Su, the beauty's weeping tears were not at all lethal, she tore off Ye Bingshang's hand.
"I'll go back to the palace if I have nothing to do."
Ye Bingshang looked at her back and withdrew her hand, with no sadness or joy on her face.
Gouyu said inexplicably: "What does she want to do? It's impossible that she really wants to leave the Zhou Kingdom Palace."
Susu opened her hand.
Gouyu said in surprise: "Hey, what is this? Ye Bingshang just stuffed it for you?"
I saw a green gem in Susu's hand.
"It's a grandmother's gem," Susu said.
When the Ye family was exiled and the family property was empty, Madam Ye hid this gem.
It was the first thing her grandfather gave her when she was young. Before Su Su carried Mrs. Ye to Liuzhou, every cold night, Mrs. Ye would tell her some past events.
Grandmother treasures this gem so much, why is it in Ye Bingshang's hands
Su Su had a bad feeling in her heart.
Gouyu said: "Don't worry, Madam Ye has been at Tantai Jin, nothing can happen, Ye Bingshang, like you, has been in the palace and can't do anything to Madam. You are not the first two. Did you receive a letter from the old lady reporting safety?"
Speaking of letters, Su Su became suspicious the moment he saw the gem.
She took out the letters her grandmother had written to her intermittently and compared them carefully. The handwriting on several letters was the same.
Su Su's heart sank instead.
Even if the same person writes, they will not write the same words exactly the same in every letter.
She clutched the letters and gems.
Suddenly convinced of a news-
Grandma has an accident.
Susu walked back quickly, and sure enough, Ye Bingshang was still waiting for her.
Ye Bingshang stood among the flowers, not at all surprised that Susu would come back, she said softly: "The third sister wants to have a good talk with me now?"
Susu said to Nian Muning, "The tourmaline for tomorrow has fallen in Ruiming Palace. Can you help me get it to Chengqian Palace?"
Tatsumaki frowned.
Susu said, "It's okay to let others take it."
For such an important thing as tourmaline, it is impossible for Nian Muning to let others take it. She whispered to Ye Yingwei to take good care of Su Su and go to Ruiming Palace.
The sisters walked to the rockery, Susu took out the gem in her hand and said, "What's going on?"
Ye Bingshang also changed her weak posture and looked at Su Su with a complicated expression.
"Don't blame me for looking for you at this time, something happened to my grandmother. His Royal Highness King Xuan left a dead soldier called Qianlongwei. Previously, the huge man hid in his grandmother's residence, and then he died, Qianlongwei didn't know. Wherever you are, your Majesty wants this dead soldier, and so does the eighth prince who lives in the people."
Susu said: "So you have to tell me that the eighth prince didn't dare to provoke Tantai Jin, so he arrested his grandmother and wanted to ask Qianlongwei's whereabouts."
"That's right." Ye Bingshang pursed her lips and said, "You can't go to see your grandmother, but my mother can. She went to visit her grandmother some time ago and only found this gem."
Su Su looked at her coldly.
Gouyu whispered: "Ye Bingshang should be telling the truth."
Ye Bingshang continued: "The Eighth Prince released news a few days ago, asking people to exchange Qianlongwei for his grandmother's life, otherwise..."
Ye Bingshang said in a deep voice: "Tonight is the time when my grandmother died. Everyone in the capital knows this news. Do you remember the time when His Majesty left the palace, when he went to find the Eighth Prince's rebels. Your Majesty is hiding it from you, and the palace servants dare not tell you. I didn't want to take this risk, but that's my grandmother too."
"Third sister." Ye Bingshang looked at Su Su, "Qianlongwei... Is it really in your hands?"
Su Su sneered: "No."
Susu said, "I don't care what you think. If you let me know that your grandmother's accident has something to do with you, I will kill you even if I betray my promise."
Madam Ye was the only person who came to Su Sulai to give her family affection. Susu didn't want Madam Ye to have an accident.
But the time given by the eighth prince is Zi Shi, Su Su wants to find Qianlongwei in Zishi, and also uses Qianlongwei to replace it, which is absolutely impossible.
Ye Bingshang lowered her eyes and said warmly, "You think I have bad intentions, maybe I do, but I really hope you can save my grandmother."
Susu said, "Bring the heart scales."
"What?" Ye Bingshang looked at her in surprise.
Susu said, "Since you really want me to save people, give me your chips too, and I'll go and save my grandmother."
Ye Bingshang took a step back.
Susu smiled and said, "Look, so don't say anything good for your grandmother. Ye Bingshang, you only love yourself."
Ye Bingshang retorted almost subconsciously: "No, how do I know, if you take something, will it save people..."
Susu glanced at her, stopped talking nonsense with her, and turned to leave.
Gouyu said, "What should I do now?"
"Rescue."
"You're not a queen anymore?"
Susu said angrily: "Life is at stake, so what kind of queen do you want to be?"
Her purpose was not to be the queen of Tantai Jhin, let alone before Zi Shi, she should be able to make it in time.
Tantai Jin was hiding this from Su Su, so he wouldn't want her to save people.
If he thinks more cruelly... Tantai Jin also wanted to draw out the hidden dragon guard, so he let the eighth prince capture his grandmother.
What's more, Tantai Jin felt that Qianlongwei was in Susu's hands. He was afraid that Su Suzhen gave Qianlongwei to the eighth prince, and the eighth prince had a better reputation than him, and he had power in his hands, which would be enough to shake everything he had. If the eighth prince really killed Mrs. Ye, Su Su would never give Qianlongwei to the eighth prince anyway.
However, Qianlongwei was not in her hands.
Susu admitted that Ye Bingshang was very smart, even if it was a trap, she still had to go.
Susu wrote a letter telling Tantai Jin that he would definitely come back before tomorrow.
Gouyu reminded her: "Little master, don't put it here, do you still remember the lessons of Ming Ye and Sang Jiu in the Floating Life of Prajna?"
Susu immediately thought of Ming Ye leaving a message for Sang Jiu, but it was erased by Tian Huan.
She took back the letter and burned it with a talisman.
If someone finds out that she is missing before tomorrow, everyone who enters the house will see the letter condensed from water vapor, and will naturally report to Tantai Jhin.
She closed the door and told the maid outside the door that she was going to rest, so that people should not be disturbed.
Susu urged Qingshihua to draw a teleportation spell.
Blood gurgled from her fingertips, and she turned pale.
Su Su glanced at the hijab with the red gold thread next to her, pursed her lips, and closed her eyes. The next moment, she disappeared in place.
*
Ye Bingshang took the silver ring and appeared in Susu's room.
Looking at the water mist that could not disperse in the air, and the mist that was about to condense, she whispered, "It's quite clever."
The heart protection scales in her arms exuded a silver light, she took it out and stroked it, and the water mist dissipated and disappeared without a trace.
"Unfortunately, it's still useful to protect the heart scale. I'm sorry, third sister, you didn't give me a way to survive."
At the same time, the black mist of Soul Eater was billowing, and Lao Dao hurriedly came to report.
"Your Majesty, the magic circle fluctuates in the palace."
Tantai Jin opened his eyes, he withdrew his hand, and his thin lips were dyed a magnificent blush.
The rat demon in front of him twitched, and the black energy in Tantai Jhin's palm disappeared in an instant.
He lowered his eyes.
Tantai Jhin was lost for a moment, and then smiled sarcastically. Many things, only he thinks that they are changing, but in fact they are not. For example, he is still the monster who needs the monster inner alchemy to continue his life.
He was still thinking last moment, if she finds out in the future, will she look at him with disgusting eyes. The next moment was told that she had left him again.
again.
Tantai Jin stood up, and Twenty Baiyu stood guard outside the door.
Nian Muning also appeared pale: "The girl is gone."
Tantai Jin was much calmer than she thought, and he even smiled mockingly: "Where's Yindie?"
Nian Muning hurriedly took out a box.
The wings of the silver butterfly exude a white halo at night and fly in one direction.
Tantai Jin said in a low voice, "In the direction of Qiannan, where the Eighth Prince is hiding."
Therefore, the Qianlong Guard is really on her. Or maybe she gave Qianlongwei to the Eighth Prince and would never come back.
He was clearly laughing, but Twenty Baiyu vaguely felt that His Majesty's mood at this moment was probably too bad.
Nian Mu Ning also lowered his head.
*
The tracking technique doesn't work at all in the room.
Gouyu saw that Su Su's left eye was bloodshot, and quickly said: "Little master, don't overdraft the world any more! Your mortal body can't stand such wear and tear."
Su Su was silent.
In fact, when she found it, her internal organs were already aching. As Gouyu said, every use of Qingshihua would cause great harm to her body.
She looked at the sky and only hoped to find her grandmother and take her back before dawn.
ions are getting closer.
Occasionally, there were two wolves with green eyes in the jungle, looking at her faintly, not daring to come over.
Su Su felt that something was not right. There seemed to be a strange smell in the air. Before she could think about it, her arms were hot, and the tears of the soul-killing beads turned into three more nails.
There are already six...
When the sound of breaking the air came, Su Su almost immediately avoided the arrows by instinct.
Applause came out, and a young man in a purple shirt stepped out of the forest. He looked young, but there was a sullen look in his eyes.
Seeing Susu, he had the excitement of a hunter seeing his prey.
"You are Miss Ye San. After waiting for you for so long, you are finally here."
"Eighth prince?" Su Su said, "Where is my grandmother?"
"That old woman, don't worry, she's fine for the time being. Where is the seal of Qianlong Weixi, did you bring it?"
In fact, Su Su's heart sank the moment he saw the eighth prince.
She expended the power of the world to sneak over, and she didn't want to be discovered by the eighth prince. She found her grandmother and took her away quietly. I didn't expect the eighth prince to wait for her here.
The Eighth Prince is two years younger than Tantai Jin, his eyebrows are thick, far less stunning than Tantai Jin's appearance, he only tends to be handsome.
Gou Yu said in a deep voice, "Could it be Ye Bingshang who tipped off the news?"
This speculation is too vicious, if it is Ye Bingshang, then she is obviously killing her grandmother.
Su Su calmed down, took out the tourmaline that was half-covered in her sleeve, and quickly took it back: "Bring it here, let me see my grandmother."
The eighth prince looked at her with an unpredictable expression.
"Is that the seal?"
Susu said, "Yes."
In fact, it was the queen's tourmaline. Her heart was pounding, and she only hoped that the eighth prince didn't see it clearly.
The eighth prince shook his head regretfully: "It's not in your hands, you don't even know what the Qianlong Wei seal is."
He smiled strangely: "You are a bit like the queen's tourmaline that my mother-in-law asked for. Could it be that my brutal imperial brother gave it to you?"
Susu cursed in a low voice, stopped talking nonsense with him, raised her hand and hit him.
The eighth prince laughed and his face became gloomy: "Yellow-haired girl, you are so arrogant when you come to my territory. Since that little bastard cares about you, you have to stay."
I saw that countless red flame bees appeared in the air without knowing when.
Gouyu said, "No, everyone in the Tantai royal family keeps monsters!"
The Scarlet Flame Bee first flowed out from the Zhou royal family, and the Eighth Prince did not know how many things were in his hands.
It's too late for Susu to run now, but what about her grandmother when she leaves
She drew her sword and killed the two red flame bees that attacked her.
However, there are too many, like a hive being pierced, all the red flame bees are coming towards Susu.
Under such circumstances, Su Su couldn't move an inch.
She spun around and landed on the ground. Chi Yanfeng was huge. She tried to hide in a small place and approached the Eighth Prince.
The Eighth Prince said, "Beyond your own power!"
He has been hiding here for so long, and naturally he has a lot of chips in his hand. The first two imperial brothers, Tantai Minglang and Tantai Jin, were both tyrants with bad intentions, so naturally there were many more people who supported him.
Scarlet Flame Bee didn't move, but a blood-red net suddenly spread out from behind Su Su.
Gouyu was shocked: "It's the Rong Corpse Network!"
Scarlet Flame Bee was in front, and Corpse Melting Net was in the back. Su Su suddenly realized that Tantai Jin had been making small troubles with her before, because he would never use an ultimate move.
The eighth prince could not defeat Tantai Jhin, and he was in danger as soon as he arrived here.
There was no way, in order to avoid the corpse melting net behind her, she could only choose to pounce on the Scarlet Flame Bee.
Seeing that Chi Yanfeng's mouthparts were about to pierce her shoulders.
The silver butterfly passed through the swarm of red flame bees and suddenly illuminated the dark night of the jungle.
Su Su fell to the ground in embarrassment, and a black cloud pattern boot appeared in front of him.
When she raised her head, she saw Tantai Jin, and he looked at her mockingly: "With this little skill, he dares to come and die."
He turned his head to look at the Eighth Prince and said with a sneer, "Little beast, I'll let you choose a method of death."
Su Su thought to herself, as expected of a real brother, and scolding people is the same.
Tantai Jhin went even further.
The eighth prince was also angry: "Today I will make you come and go."
In the end, this is the Eighth Prince's territory. The strange powder mist in the air diffuses over, and the soul-calling flag behind Tantai Jhin spins rapidly, dispelling the powder mist in the blink of an eye. The Eighth Prince said, "This is impossible!"
Tantai Jin said, "Kill it."
Su Su had already stood beside Tantai Jin.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the eighth prince planned to evacuate.
Susu thought of her grandmother and wanted to catch up.
She only took a step forward, and Tantai Jin grabbed her wrist and said angrily, "Do you want to die?"
"My grandfather..."
She only said two words, and the silver-blue arrow flashed in the air.
Tantai Jin hugged her violently and led her away from the arrows.
The arrows pierced through the tree trunks, one by one, and shot at them.
Twenty Baiyu's heart sank, this is not the person of the Eighth Prince, more like Qianlongwei!
The moment she was hugged by Tantai Jin, Su Su's mind went blank, not because of anything else, but because the tears in his arms instantly became nine nails.
He didn't feel it, the love of the young demon god was like air that he couldn't touch. His life is like stagnant water, even his heart is silent, like a pool of stagnant water.
So easy, yet boiling.
He even subconsciously put his palm on her head as they fell.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment in her eyes.
Tantai Jin was so close to her, the tightness in her eyes made her see clearly. The youth's body protected her, and behind her were arrows that flew past.
If she wants to kill him, now is the best chance.
Even Gouyu said excitedly: "Little master, hurry up!"
This is their ultimate goal!
Su Su's eyes turned cold, and she poured out tears of soul-destroying beads. Tantai Jhin held her tightly with his arms, and the next moment, three golden nails appeared behind him and pierced into his heart.
Tantai Jin lowered his head stunned and saw the girl's cold eyes.
His face was pale, and there was blood on the corner of his mouth. After a long while, he let go of her: "Why?"
Su Su Qingliang's pupils looked particularly cold: "I originally came to kill you."
"Kill me?" he repeated in a low voice. "No, you don't mean to... be me..."
The three soul-killing nails entered his heart again.
His face was as pale as paper, he suddenly raised his head and looked at her with a cold look.
Black spread in his eyes.
"You've been lying to me, you've never liked me, you're just like them, just want me to die!"
Susu felt that something was wrong and wanted to drive the last three nails into his heart.
He pursed his lips strangely suddenly.
The night wind in June turned cold in an instant and brushed Susu's hair.
At the place of his heart, a blue scale glowed faintly.
Gouyu took a deep breath: "Ye Bingshang gave him the heart scale!"
The last three nails slammed into the heart scales and shattered.
The young man's face was as pale as a corpse. He raised his hand and Su Su flew out.
She overused the flower of the world, and she was at the end of the shot. She was hit by the heart protection scale, and a mouthful of blood spurted out "wow".
A sword lay across her neck.
Su Su's heart sank infinitely, her mind and body were all cold. Three soul-killing nails... shattered.
Her mission failed.
But what was even more terrifying than that was that the young man squatted down to look at her, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth: "Do you think I'm stupid and ridiculous."
Su Su coughed violently.
He grabbed her neck and said strangely, like crying and laughing: "It's not uncommon for you to like me, then try my hatred."
Susu couldn't say a word, and she fainted with a flash of protective heart scales.
*
"Today is fifteen."
Someone said that in her ear.
fifteen? She didn't know what the word meant at the time. Until a pair of cold hands casually unbuttoned her shirt.
Even on a summer night, the coldness of the air still made her shiver.
Su Su suddenly opened her eyes.
In the icy dungeon, she was lying on a simple bed, surrounded by darkness, and she could not see her fingers.
The sound of breathing in his ears became clearer.
She wanted to move, but found that her wrists and ankles were bound by weak water.
Susu tried to use the previous method to untie it, but found it to be useless. Those cold eyes in the dark night watched her struggling mockingly.
Su Su's heart sank infinitely.
She tried to speak, but found that her throat was blocked and she couldn't say a word.
"You're scared, aren't you?" he whispered and said nervously, "A few days ago, you were in the same mood day and night."
"A person is in the dark, always looking forward to the light tomorrow. But you see, no one in this world will save me, just like now... no one will save you."
Susu's hand touched his body and found that he was wearing nothing, and she withdrew her hand almost immediately.
Her reaction made him sneer again.
"You may have laughed at me behind my back many times. Look, that idiot named Tantai Jin, you beat him, scolded him, and humiliated him, but he was still reluctant to kill you. He even thought about making you the queen. , grow old and die like a common man."
"He's so stupid, even knowing that you left him again, he still chooses to come to you. Because I'm afraid that you will be killed by that beast of the Eighth Prince."
"But Qianlongwei's arrows, six nails pierced into the heart, let him see clearly, he is really cheap. When you killed me, did you hesitate a little?"
He roared in her ear with a tone of despair and madness.
Su Su felt an indescribable fear in her heart. Her body was hot and her breathing was short. She wanted to find the Gu worm that Xiaoshan gave her, but found that the Gu worm was gone.
Every fifteenth of March, she finally remembered what it was—
Knot spring silkworm.
She had been through it once, and knew how hard it was. But now, the Gu worm is gone, and her knot spring silkworm is attacking again.
The man hugged her and looked at the dark secret room with her.
He said hoarsely and viciously: "Don't worry, I know you don't care about being my queen anymore. I won't be so stupid anymore, don't you care about concubines?"
"You don't even have to be a concubine."
"Just die here, and die in a wild way." He grabbed the girl's hair, "Perhaps you can start crying. If you take a gamble, will I feel pity?"
"Ha, don't cry?" He laughed, as if he had found something funny.
"It doesn't matter, the night is still long. Tonight was originally your posthumous ceremony, but it is not now. The punishment has begun."
Su Su was speechless, the stone bed under her body was as hard as ice. The man beside her whispered like a demon in her ear.
Gouyu didn't respond, and the darkness of the five fingers could not be seen.
For the first time, she felt the fear that her five senses could not be used. She was extremely uncomfortable, and her fingers tightly clasped the stone bed under her like a dying fish.
He grabbed the hand and said sympathetically, "How pitiful, why don't you beg me?"
"Oh, I forgot, you can't talk right now."
He laughed softly at first, but then stopped laughing and hummed the song he heard in Xia Country when he was a child.
It was a song used for entertainment on the lonely nights of countless palace servants. In those terrifying and lonely nights, he learned nothing, learned these dirty things.
Now, he sings to her.
The girl trembled in his arms, her fingers were bleeding from the nails, and she scratched a few holes in his skin.
He took her hand, kissed her between his lips, and crushed her phalanx with ease.
"Does it hurt? It can't compare to the pain in my heart."
In the dark, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth, he laughed and continued to hum.
The girl didn't know how long it took, but finally, she shuddered and hugged his neck. He stopped singing and laughed happily.
Susu's tears slipped down her temples, and she knew that she had compromised with Jiechuncan.
The night shattered before her eyes, and she gasped.
Pain in fingers, pain everywhere.
Unable to speak, the fear of failing the mission made her tremble like a small beast.
Tantai Jin was in her ear, sometimes sneering, sometimes saying words of pity and sympathy. She couldn't see the light of the sky, only felt pain and cold.
She didn't know when her fingers were clasped, but Tantai Jin held her tightly with a tough stance.
In the boundless night, Tantai Jin was cold and wanton.
"Do you feel it? Me." He touched the tears rolling down her hair, wiped them carelessly, and whispered, "My hate."
