Long Tianyu nodded. In fact, he also noticed it. Today, whether it is the imperial palace or my father's palace, there are many flaws on the surface.
On weekdays, it wouldn't be very noticeable.
But this is a New Year's Eve palace banquet, so we should be more vigilant. It seemed that the queen deliberately wanted to lure Long Tianyu into taking the bait.
Lin Mengya breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Long Tianyu was willing to listen to her. Let this disaster be eliminated invisible, otherwise, I am afraid it will be difficult to end well today.
Turning around, he also appeared quietly from the side hall. Back in the corner, Ye's figure has disappeared. After checking, there were no signs of fighting, and there were no strange footprints around.
It seems that he left on his own.
Feeling a little more at ease, Lin Mengya was about to return to Chongqing Hall, but her mind suddenly felt like an electric shock.
Something's wrong! Everything about tonight is wrong!
Lin Mengya stood there, quickly recalling everything today in her mind.
If the queen really didn't want to go to war with Long Tianyu, then why did she reveal Concubine De's secret to herself? On the other hand, the palace guards were removed again, as if they were inviting you to enter the urn
Could it be that the Queen has other plans
Lin Mengya walked quickly back to Chongqing Hall, where there was still singing and dancing. The queen and the prince were still sitting in the hall, chatting and laughing with their relatives.
The four girls looked nervous. It was not until they saw their master coming back that they finally felt relieved.
"Master, where have you been?"
Lowering his voice, not wanting to attract anyone's attention, Bai Ji greeted Lin Mengya and sat back in his seat.
"It's okay, I just felt that the palace was a bit boring, so I went out for a walk. By the way, was there anything unusual just now?"
Lin Mengya asked carefully. The four girls thought about it for a while, but they all shook their heads.
The Chongqing Hall was very busy tonight. If you didn't notice it, it was normal.
After waiting for a while, Long Tianyu still didn't come back. Strangely, apart from changing clothes and arranging his subordinates, there should be nothing else to delay him.
While she was thinking secretly, there was a sudden explosion outside.
There was a loud "Boom--" and the entire hall fell silent for an instant. Everyone looked outside, but it suddenly became bright as day.
"It's fireworks, Master, you see it's fireworks."
Bai Zhi said excitedly, and Lin Mengya also looked at it carefully, and found that they were indeed bright fireworks.
Really, it made her worry in vain. Come to think of it, the ancients did like fireworks shows. Besides, on this New Year's Eve, there's nothing wrong with it.
"I heard that these fireworks are worshiped by foreign countries. They are a little different from what we usually see."
Among the clan members, those with a little knowledge began to explain it to those around them. Everyone's attention was attracted by the gorgeous fireworks.
The four girls also saw the scene outside, and their eyes couldn't help but look a little excited.
"So beautiful, such beautiful fireworks. Much more beautiful than what we saw outside the palace."
Bai Zhi looked outside intently, obviously her eyes were not full. Lin Mengya saw a figure quietly disappearing beside the queen.
That was a favored aunt of the queen, why was she so sneaky
Lin Mengya kept an eye on it, tugged on Bai Su's sleeves, and gave her a wary look.
Sure enough, after a while, I heard noisy noises outside. After a while, I saw a eunuch running in in a panic.
"To report to the Queen, the Emperor's palace was accidentally flooded! Now, all the Yulin Guards and Imperial Guards are already putting out the fire!"
Is the emperor's palace compromised? Why is it such a coincidence? Is it because of these fireworks? Lin Mengya's mind was spinning, but she was still waiting for any reaction from her. The door of Chongqing Hall was kicked open hard the next moment.
Many people in black came in like a tide. Lin Mengya's eyelids twitched. What kind of trouble was this
"How brave, this is the palace, not a place for thieves like you to break into!"
The imperial guard who was leaning against the door immediately drew his sword and fought with the man in black who rushed in.
But the martial arts of the men in black were obviously much higher than those of the Imperial Guards. In a short time, all the Imperial Guards responsible for guarding the surroundings of Chongqing Hall were killed.
"Protect the master, retreat quickly!"
Bai Su's weapons had been taken away. In desperation, he had no choice but to pick up the vase on the shelf next to him and protect the other four people behind him.
The men in black were very cruel, and there were many clan members in the hall, so only a few personal guards formed a temporary thin human wall.
To make matters worse, the side door was also blocked. Everyone was hiding in the innermost part of the hall. But the queen and the prince were surrounded in the middle.
"What's going on? How could an assassin suddenly attack!"
The prince shouted angrily at the top of his lungs, and the guards around him fiercely protected him and the queen.
"They must have sneaked in while there were a lot of people. If we hold on for a while, people will soon come and just us!"
Long Qinghan snatched a long sword from the man in black and killed the man in black. The emperor's palace was leaked, attracting most of the guards in the palace. Being attacked from both sides, I am afraid that the group of people in Chongqing Hall are in danger.
"Someone is coming! Someone is coming! Escort!"
It was obviously impossible for the prince to risk his life, so he hurriedly stood at the back of the crowd.
Lin Mengya was also crowded to the end. Compared to the panic of the prince, the queen was still very calm.
"The female relatives are all coming to this palace. Dear royal family members, this matter must be caused by someone's wild ambitions. They are trying to overthrow our Jin Dynasty. As a member of the royal family, your life and death depend on this!"
The queen is good at inciting people. With one sentence, all the clan members immediately stood up.
The female relatives and the young and old clan members were all protected by them. Following Long Qinghan, they fought tooth and nail against the man in black.
But there are too many people in black, plus there are so many people. These people are very despicable, specializing in sneak attacks on defenseless old, young, women and children.
In a short time, Chongqing Hall was already littered with corpses of many people.
No matter how powerful Long Qinghan and his clan members were, they were only forced to retreat step by step by the men in black. In the end, he could only protect the group of people behind him.
All the people were suspended in mid-air. Could it be that tonight is really the moment when the Long family is destroyed
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am late to save you. Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
Just when everyone was feeling desperate, reinforcements finally arrived from outside.
Soldiers wearing imperial guard uniforms instantly surrounded the entire Chongqing Hall.
"Ah! It's the Guards! It's really the Guards! Great, we are finally saved!"
A small cheer sounded from the crowd, but Lin Mengya stared closely at the man in black in front of her.
Because the clothes of those people were almost the same as the masked black woman beside Long Tianyu. Looking around, there was still no figure of Long Tianyu.
Could it be that tonight's turmoil was still planned by Long Tianyu
But these people still showed no mercy to the old, young, women and children. Long Tianyu would never let his subordinates do this!
"Hmph, here comes another group of people who are willing to die! Come and kill them all. Neither the queen nor the prince will survive tonight."
The voice was cool and somewhat gentle, and Lin Mengya's pupils shrank. This person - this person is clearly the woman next to Long Tianyu!
Beiqi bit her lips tightly. It turned out that he still didn't give up! He even turned to massacre those innocent people!
Although the men in black are powerful, the number of people who cannot stand up to the Forbidden Army is increasing rapidly.
Everyone knows that if you don't fight to the death, you will only have the fate of being slaughtered!
His heart was beating violently, the people in front of him were fighting hand to hand, and the sound of fighting was endless. The originally peaceful Chongqing Hall has now become a hell of Shura.
The red blood spread, and one after another fell down. Not only the men in black, but also the innocent family members.
Lin Mengya felt as if her heart was immersed in cold water.
She clearly remembered that the man promised her not to act rashly again. But why would such a cruel thing happen
"Master, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere?"
Bai Shao supported the shaky Lin Mengya and asked.
Shaking his head, it was obviously too late to blame anyone now.
The constant stream of guardsmen clearly had the upper hand, and men in black were constantly being killed on the spot. The situation has become one-sided, and the man in black is still stubbornly resisting. It was only a matter of time before they were cleared.
Suddenly, a black shadow took advantage of the situation and rushed towards the panicked crowd. No one expected that this man would rush into the crowd.
"ah-"
After finishing off the woman who was getting in the way with one sword, he was stopped halfway by several figures.
Several people fought hard, but the man in black was obviously defeated. In the end, the battle ended with an arm covered in blood. But what people didn't expect was that this man, for some unknown purpose, used his remaining hand to support his body and crawled to a certain place in the crowd.
The guards were about to finish him off, but they were stopped by the prince.
"Wait!"
Just before the guards could recover, the man in black crawled to Lin Mengya's feet and even reached out to grab the hem of her skirt.
The blood-stained hands left a bloody handprint on the hem of her skirt. But what shocked Lin Mengya even more was that this man actually raised his head, smiled slightly at her and said:
"Princess...I'm sorry, we...didn't do what the prince ordered!"
After saying that, he spat out a large mouthful of blood. His pupils were dilated and signs of life had completely disappeared.
