In the inner courtyard of the Du'an Pharmacy, the eldest grandson was sitting beside the bed, looking at Lime, who was still awake. A hint of sadness flashed across her beautiful face. Lime was brought up by her, and she was the only one who could speak after entering the palace. people. The most ruthless emperor family, intrigue and conspiracy in the palace are everywhere. She has long been exhausted and exhausted. For this reason, Qingming, who is not yet weak, silently helps her shoulder the affairs of Weiyang Palace. , the same for seven years
.
"dong dong"
Outside the room, there was a knock on the door, the eldest grandson recovered, and said softly, "The door is unlocked, come in."
"Queen Empress, I'm back"
A familiar voice sounded in his ears, and the eldest grandson turned his head, ignoring Ning Chen, who had a smug smile, and looked at the Marquis of Taiping beside the latter.
"Big Brother"
Zhangsun's eyes froze, and a rare flash of excitement flashed, and he said.
"Worry-free, thank you for your hard work"
Looking at his younger sister, who was still beautiful, but had the breath of time, the Marquis of Taiping was filled with emotion and sighed softly.
On the side, Ning Chen had a bright smile on his face. He tried his best to open his eyes. Did you see it? It's all my credit. You praise me, hurry up and praise me.
It's a pity that the eldest grandson was very excited, and he forgot the hero when he was excited, and the Taiping Marquis didn't care about Ning Chen at all, so the hero was ruthlessly forgotten to one side.
"Ning Chen"
Fortunately, the eldest grandson is not an ordinary person. After a brief excitement, he quickly stabilized his mind, glanced at Ning Chen beside him, and said.
"Huh?" Ning Chen's face lit up with joy, he finally remembered the hero, and hurriedly stood up straight, meaning, praise me, I'm listening.
"You go out first, this palace has something to talk to Taiping Hou"
"… "
Ning Chen ran away with tears in his eyes, a broken heart like tofu scum.
"This son, good"
The Marquis of Taiping weighed it for a while, and finally decided to remind the eldest grandson. He is quick-witted, bold, but not uncommon. He is a good seedling.
The eldest grandson glanced at the former in a different way. There are not many people who can make his elder brother praise him so much, and he can count them on one hand.
The Marquis of Taiping simply recounted what happened today, and the eldest grandson nodded secretly. He was so quick-witted that he was really different from ordinary people, and he couldn't help but feel that his nephew was unsatisfactory.
"Yun Xuan is still young, so it's enough to punish him. Don't hurt the father and son's relationship." For some reason, the eldest grandson deliberately stopped talking about Ning Chen, but changed the subject.
The Marquis of Taiping nodded and said, "I have my own opinion on this matter, no worries. Why did you leave the palace this time and put yourself in such great danger? This is not in line with your usual rigorous style of doing things."
"Love is a last resort." The eldest grandson sighed softly, "Presumably the eldest brother also knew about the danger on the northern border, the royal court of Northern Mongolia has long been different from what it used to be, and Emperor Xia's willingness to send troops was hindered by the will of God, and now only those who sit in the northwest are the only ones who are in danger. Father can secretly help soldiers.”
"Although I heard about it, I didn't expect that the royal court of Northern Mongolia would eventually become a major disaster." Taipinghou's mind was heavy, and the former barbarian land has become a needle in the back of Daxia today, which is really unexpected.
"Most of the court officials' impression of Beimeng's court was still ten years ago, so they didn't pay much attention to it, but unfortunately, God's will tricks people, Xia Huang finally decided to send troops despite all the opinions, but was suddenly beaten by an accident. chaos"
Zhangsun's heart is also very heavy. If they miss this opportunity, no one knows what price Daxia will pay, but there is no doubt that this price will definitely be unbearable for them.
In recent years, the Northern Mongolian Royal Court has been in a state of war, and its heart has long been clear. The troops and horses in the northern border of Daxia are no longer enough to resist the greatly increased Northern Mongolian cavalry. It is urgent to send troops.
"In the final analysis, the existence of the Eternal Night Sect is the biggest source of disaster. This organization that has existed for thousands of years controls the world's beliefs, and its influence is really terrifying." The reason for not fighting is that although Daxia is strong, it is not strong enough to be an enemy of the world. Disasters are coming from the sky, and wars are everywhere. At this moment, sending troops is not intended to promote the best summer in the world for the Eternal Night Divine Sect.
excuse.
The most terrifying thing, this is probably just the beginning. The existence of the Northern Mongolian Royal Court and the Eternal Night Divine Sect has restrained Daxia too much energy and has no time to care about it. Some forces that used to submit to Daxia's force are likely to be one by one. surfaced.
Daxia, who has been sitting on the Central Plains for thousands of years, has been invincible for too long, and has undoubtedly become the target of public criticism. Those who are eager to move are just waiting for an opportunity. The land of the Central Plains is prosperous and fertile, just like a piece of fat, anyone wants to come up and take a bite. Now Daxia has a powerful force to deter, and no one dares to be the first bird. power will inevitably
Revealing long-hidden fangs.
"Worry-free, I'll take you back to the palace first"
Time is running out, the Marquis of Taiping made a decisive decision and no longer delays. The sooner the army is sent to the north, the crisis in Daxia will be eased sooner. Time is running out, and there is no room for hesitation.
Half an hour later, the carriage was already waiting in the courtyard, and Ning Chen, as a coolie, was naturally responsible for carrying Lime into the car. "Uncle shopkeeper, don't forget to go to Lingyan Pavilion tomorrow to pay back the tea money. I'll pay you back when I pay my salary." When he was about to leave, Ning Chen was reluctant to leave. After his face was wrong, he reluctantly followed
Sun returned to the palace.
After the eldest grandson and Ning Chen returned to the palace, the sky was already dark and it couldn't get any darker. It was inconvenient for the Marquis of Taiping to enter the palace, so he sent the eldest grandson to the palace gate and left.
"what happened"
After entering the palace, both the eldest grandson and Ning Chen found that the atmosphere in the palace was not right.
"What happened?" The eldest grandson asked Ning Chen to stop a guard general.
"Reporting to the Empress, someone broke into the imperial study at night, and His Majesty was furious and ordered a search of the entire palace," the guard general replied respectfully.
Ning Chen was shocked when he heard the words, and was extremely anxious in his heart.
"Ning Chen, you go back with Qing Ning first, this palace is going to the Tianyu Palace," the eldest grandson got off the carriage and immediately ordered.
"Yes." Ning Chen lowered his head, avoiding the eldest grandson's attention, a worry flashed in his eyes, that stupid woman, don't do stupid things.
After the eldest grandson left, Ning Chen hurriedly took Qing Ning to the Weiyang Palace, because he was in a hurry, he didn't even hear the whispering sound from the carriage.
Back at Weiyang Palace, after Ning Chen carried Liming back to his room, he hurried towards his residence without stopping, but did not find that behind him, a pair of bright eyes quietly opened, looking thoughtfully. Looking at his back, he said nothing.
"Twilight Snow"
Pushing open the door, he first found the beautiful figure lying beside the bed with blood-stained clothes. Ning Chen was shocked, and quickly closed the door and carried the former to the bed.
Seeing that the blood on Mu Chengxue's right shoulder was dyed red on half of his clothes, and his breath was wandering, Ning Chen couldn't care about the difference between men and women. .
Ning Chen was anxious, but his heart was even more anxious. The sword was obviously not fatally wounded. Mu Chengxue was seriously injured and was in a coma.
"Medicine, yes, medicine"
Ning Chen remembered the life-saving medicine that Mu Chengxue had given him. At this moment, she could only hope that she would give him the remaining one. As soon as she gritted her teeth, she couldn't take care of it anymore, and began to grope with her hands.
"No?"
At this moment, Ning Chen's face turned pale and he was at a loss.
What to do, what to do, for the first time, Ning Chen felt that he was so powerless.
"You must find a way to get out of the palace"
After thinking about it for a while, Ning Chen's heart sank, and he no longer hesitated. He picked up Mu Chengxue and walked outside. Fortunately, he came back in a carriage, which was a good cover.
When he just entered the palace, many imperial guards had seen him, and it may be the best time to go out now.
He didn't know what the result would be if he left, but if he didn't leave now, Mu Chengxue would definitely die. He was not a noble person, but he wasn't a coward either.
He promised Mu Chengxue that if he wanted to take her out, he had to do it.
"Bang"
At this moment, the door of the room was opened with a bang, Ning Chen's footsteps stopped, and his body shivered suddenly.
"Ms. Lime"
The familiar figure in front of him made Ning Chen slightly relieved. Fortunately, it wasn't a guard in the palace, but the next moment, his body became nervous again.
He almost forgot that Lime is the most loyal eldest grandson and is more dangerous than the imperial guard.
"How did you come"
Ning Chen thought about it for a while, but he didn't feel that there was any flaw in him. Besides, Liming had been in a coma, and it was impossible for him to notice anything.
"You are not a careless person. How could you not even notice when I woke up? The only explanation is that there is something in your heart"
Li Ning's face was still pale, and she blocked the door and said coldly.
"Is she the one who entered the palace to assassinate, Ning Chen, you have disappointed me too much"
Qing Ning glanced at the woman in Ning Chen's arms, her eyes became colder, she didn't expect that the assassin that the guards of the entire palace couldn't find would be hidden in Weiyang Palace, she was too careless.
Ning Chen sighed deeply, knowing that it was useless to explain, he took two steps back and pulled the rope beside the bed. Suddenly, the door slammed shut, and a rope net fell silently.
Liming noticed something was wrong and wanted to dodge, but felt that her chest was stagnant, her breath was not smooth, her pace slowed down by half a minute, and she was caught by the falling rope net.
Ning Chen didn't expect that the mechanism he set up would one day be used on Lime. Fortunately, Lime had just woken up and was struggling to move. Otherwise, this little mechanism would be basically useless.
"Sister Lime, I'm sorry"
Ning Chen put Mu Chengxue down, and immediately stepped forward to tie Liming's hands and feet and sealed his mouth, then untied the rope and carried him onto the bed.
"Whether you believe it or not, Sister Qingming, I have never had any unfavorable thoughts on you and the Empress. On the night of entering the palace, I happened to meet Mu Chengxue, and she helped me, so I must save her, this is me What you promised her can't and won't be broken." Ning Chen covered Liming with a thin quilt and said in a ramble. He knew that after he left, he might never have the chance to see each other again. He came here. In just a few days in the world, Lime is the best person for him, he doesn't want to hide it, but
more reluctant to deceive.
After doing this, Ning Chen picked up Mu Chengxue and walked out. Before going out, he looked back one last time, his eyes intertwined, and he grinned brightly, saying:
"Finally, I still have something I want to say but I haven't dared to say it, Sister Lime, if you are so fierce, who will dare to ask you in the future?"
The door was closed, Ning Chen left, on the bed, Li Ning stared at the door, her tense body loosened a little.
She didn't know whether she was doing it right or wrong, but she knew that she had no regrets, not today, nor in the future.
He was still so stupid, why didn't he think about it, how could she be caught by this simple rope net, she didn't escape, but it didn't mean she couldn't break free. Well, he's still so stupid...
