The girl looked gloomy, and said two words coldly: "Get out of the way!"
"Naive!" Zhuge Yue snorted and snorted coldly.
There was a muffled whoosh sound, Chu Qiao moved like the wind, punched straight up, twisted her waist, her body moved forward like a leaf.
Zhuge Yue didn't expect that she would hit as soon as she said, and immediately fought back. The two were quick and clever, and they were evenly matched in a short time. Suddenly the cold wind blew, and there were only two muffled bang bangs. The fists of the two crossed and hit each other on the chest. The force was so great that each of the two grunted and took two steps back at the same time. into a confrontational situation.
"It is impossible for Yan Xun to succeed in the rebellion. Barley and Wei Shuye have already laid a net to fight against the empire. The rebellious officials and thieves can only die."
Chu Qiao snorted coldly, wiped the sweat off her chin with the back of her hand, and said coldly, "Slave!"
Zhuge Yue was furious immediately, and said in a deep voice, "What did you say?"
"Zhuge Yue, I used to think that you were just an arrogant and self-righteous son of a noble family. I just found out today that you are still a slave and running dog surnamed Zhao."
Zhuge Yue's face turned livid, "I'm not loyal to the Zhao family, but to Daxia."
"What's the difference?" Chu Qiao sneered, "Don't talk about rebellious officials and thieves. The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. How do you know that in the future history books will not say that you are a vassal who works for tigers? History, only Listen to the words of the victor."
"You have confidence in him." Zhuge Yue sneered, "I want to keep my eyes open to see how he escaped from this Zhenhuang gate."
Chu Qiao narrowed her eyes, and suddenly murderous intent appeared, "I'm afraid you won't have this chance."
With a murderous look and intertwined moves, the girl drew out her dagger and fought Zhuge Yue. Under the moonlight, I saw the agile figures of the two, like two groups of shadows, moving and jumping, coming and going between the flowers, trees and grass.
"If you follow him, you will end up dead sooner or later!" The wrist holding the dagger was picked up, and Zhuge Yue gained momentum and rushed forward swiftly.
"Thank you for your concern, but you should take care of yourself first!"
Chu Qiao jumped in the air, kicked Zhuge Yue's shoulder fiercely, swung the knife and stabbed fiercely, mercilessly.
"If you do too much unrighteousness, you will kill yourself. Don't force me to be cruel!"
"You and I are sworn enemies, so why hold back?"
"Who's there?"
The sound of chaotic footsteps came suddenly, the two of them were taken aback, they stopped together immediately, and ran to a dense flower bush on the left in unison, but after running two steps, they found that the other party was also coming in the same direction, and immediately forgot to pursue the soldiers , and hit one place again.
"To the east, keep up!"
The palace guards approached quickly, Zhuge Yue frowned, grabbed Chu Qiao's attacking wrist, and shouted angrily, "Do you want to die? Still hit?"
Chu Qiao raised her eyebrows and said angrily, "Why are you following me?"
Zhuge Yue was also angry, "Who followed you?"
"Just ahead, hurry up!"
With a sound of swish, Chu Qiao kicked Zhuge Yue's calf. Zhuge Yue's eyes showed a fierce look, and he scolded: "Crazy woman who doesn't know how to live or die!"
The girl half-kneeled on the ground, and replied coldly, "You stalker!"
"Quick!" The voice approached, already ten steps away. Their eyes were startled, they closed their hands at the same time, rolled sideways, and hid in the dense flowers.
"where is it?"
"Boss, did you hear wrong?"
The leading guard shook his head cautiously, "Impossible, I clearly saw several black shadows."
"Boss, it must be a cat. There are many cats in this garden."
"No, I saw it with my own eyes." The leader said in a deep voice, "Everyone search around, tonight is His Majesty's birthday, so don't make any mistakes."
"yes!"
The crowd gradually went away, and the two pairs of vigilant eyes looked out cautiously, watching the guards go away.
There was a sudden bang, Zhuge Yue's lower abdomen was in severe pain, and before he had time to fight back, Chu Qiao's body suddenly rushed up and pressed him down. Zhuge Yue didn't expect her to make a move at this time, and he was caught off guard by her attack when he didn't notice for a while. Chu Qiao's skill is so good, Zhuge Yue's loss of focus at this moment is enough, he slammed his knee hard, Zhuge Yue almost cried out under the severe pain, and in the next second, she was tightly tied up with a rope .
"Because you didn't call someone to arrest me just now, I won't kill you today." Chu Qiao stood up, looked down at Zhuge Yue who was glaring at her with a cold face, and said in a deep voice, "Zhuge Yue, Eight years ago, you did not expose me and gave me a way out. I appreciate your kindness, but this does not mean that the hatred between you and me can be eliminated. As a powerful nobleman, it is understandable for you to kill a few slaves, but I value these few people, and then you shot and wounded Yan Xun, preventing us from escaping from the imperial capital, and suffering from eight years of imprisonment. From the very beginning, there was opposition between you and me, which can never be reconciled and cannot be changed. One thing I hope you can understand. If I don't kill you today, it doesn't mean I won't kill you in the future, so next time you see me, you'd better be careful."
Zhuge Yue's face was livid, and he was extremely angry. Seeing her turn her head away, he suddenly said in a deep voice: "You will surely die if you walk out of the imperial city now, how will you kill me in the future?"
Chu Qiao turned around and smiled brightly, "Are you so unconfident in him? I don't think so, why don't we make a bet?"
Zhuge Yue looked at each other indifferently, the corners of his mouth were raised sarcastically, but he didn't speak.
"You must bet that we will not be able to escape, and all of us will die without a place to bury us. But I am sure that not only can we go out, but we can also go out with great fanfare, so that everyone in the entire land of Simon knows, and the people of Yanbei Everyone knows that their king is back!"
At that moment, the girl's face suddenly radiated an unconcealable light, as if standing under the bright morning sun, there was a miraculous light, and she was so radiant in this dark night.
It was a kind of wholehearted trust and admiration, complete certainty, without the slightest doubt or worry. Suddenly, Zhuge Yue felt that smile was so dazzling, he even hated it a little bit, why was the person trusted, not himself
The girl looked at him and said confidently: "Zhuge Yue, just watch!"
That night was a day that Zhuge Yue would never forget in his life. Many years later, he would still think of the girl's expression when she left from time to time, and her confident words. She said: Zhuge Yue, look Bar.
So he really just watched her like that, watching her briskly leave his sight, like a gust of wind, like a cloud, just like that night eight years ago, she shouted sharply: Zhuge Yue, Lin Xi I will not die in vain!
She has always been a person who keeps her word. When the world changes drastically and the chaotic tide sweeps the land they live in, disrupting their walking rhythm and overturning their dreams, he will always recall with regret that night. If he knew what happened next, would he have watched her leave? Will he let her go without saying a word? But after all, there is no such thing as if in this world, so he lay quietly in the cold grass, watching the girl's figure disappear in layers of darkness, like a proud phoenix, she left his sight and entered the world. Opened another vast world!
The sky is full of beauty, and the fireworks are unparalleled!
"Your Majesty!" A panicked voice suddenly rang out from outside the palace, and a father-in-law ran in with small steps, kneeled on the ground with a plop, and said in a crying voice: "Your Majesty, Princess Chun, Princess Chun, she..."
"What happened to Eighth Sister?" Zhao Song stood up and said angrily.
The old man's face collapsed, and he shouted loudly: "Princess Chun, she has run away!"
"What?" Concubine Shu raised her eyebrows and said sharply, "Why did you run away? Where did you go? You let the princess run away after so many people watching? What's the use of keeping you!"
"This old slave will be punished with death, this old slave will be punished with death!" the old man cried loudly, "Your Majesty, please spare me!"
The wedding was approaching, but the bride ran away, and everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.
Zhao Che stood up and said in a deep voice, "Shut up, tell me when the princess ran away and where did she go?"
Just as the old man was about to speak, he suddenly heard the loud sound of gongs outside, and the sharp sound of horns sounded immediately, the urgency in the voice made people tremble.
"What's going on outside?" The emperor frowned and asked in a deep voice.
"Report!" The elongated voice came from a distance, and a guard in Tsing Yi ran in without waiting for the people inside to call, and said in a sonorous tone, "Please move to a safe place, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Highness , The palace is on fire, and the fire is so intense that it is out of control."
"On fire?" The third prince Zhao Qi was stunned, and said in disbelief, "Where is the fire? Where is the Water Dragon Bureau? Why is there no one to put out the fire?"
"I have already sent people to the Water Dragon Bureau to report, but there has been no response yet. As for the fire, the slaves don't know where the fire is, but there are fires everywhere. Your Majesty, let's go, the fire is about to reach Fang Guidian."
"Bold!" Zhao Qi shouted coldly, "Sun Yunpu, the head of the water dragon bureau, doesn't want to do it anymore!"
"There is no point arguing over who is responsible at this moment. Father, the fire is in critical condition. Let's leave this place as soon as possible." Zhao Che said in a deep voice.
Emperor Xia frowned and nodded, and stood up. The eunuchs on both sides hurried forward to serve, but before smoothing the wrinkles on the emperor's clothes, another shout came in. A soldier knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, please don't leave the Fang Gui Hall. It's not safe outside. A large number of assassins have sneaked into the palace. They have assassinated more than 60 people, and the death toll is still rising!"
As soon as this remark came out, the already panic-stricken officials became even more panic-stricken, and buzzing voices suddenly rang out.
Zhao Che frowned, and quickly asked, "Who has been assassinated?"
The soldier replied: "There are General He Can, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, General Lu Can, the chief of defense at the west gate, Commander Yu, the chief of defense at the south gate, the sentries of each information post, Mr. Sun Yunpu, the director of the Water Dragon Bureau, and the soldiers standing guard at the southwest gate..."
Listening to the list constantly reported by the soldiers, Zhao Che and General Meng Tian, who had the most military experience in the field, looked at each other, and they both saw indescribable horror in each other's eyes. Although these assassinated names seem to be messy and unconnected, but after careful analysis, they are the best channel for conspiracy with extreme precision. The death of these dozens of people wiped out all the middle-level commanding generals of the empire, and made the huge imperial city army temporarily powerless. It also paralyzed the high-level command system of the empire, and no one could pass on orders.
What happened this night that they didn't know about
