When they arrived at the back hall, as soon as Wen Qingzhu and the others walked through the moon gate, they saw Concubine Wei covered in blood.
She was held hostage by Mo Feizi, standing at the door of the dormitory with a sword on her neck.
Opposite them stood the high priest of the Yue Kingdom wearing a white porcelain mask. He was holding something like a roller in his hand.
Staring at Mo Feizi, he said solemnly: "Leave Imperial Concubine Wei to me. Only she can give me what I want!"
"I don't believe you." Mo Feizi took Concubine Wei's shoulders and took a step back.
"High Priest! Do you want what I have in my hand?" Wen Qingzhu said with a smile.
Seeing this situation, she felt relieved.
As long as Concubine Wei is in Mo Feizi's hands, there is basically no big problem.
Both parties looked over at the same time, especially the high priest of the Yue Kingdom. When he looked at Wen Qingzhu, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he felt a feeling of extreme danger in his heart.
"Stop!" Liu Liangren and the others blocked Wen Qingzhu's path.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the high priest: "It seems that you can't make a decision, so what do you want..."
In front of everyone, Wen Qingzhu stretched out his hand, rolled up his sleeves, and exposed his white little arms.
The other hand gently rubbed along the corner of the elbow, and then rolled up a layer of skin.
Under the gaze of the high priest, Wen Qingzhu tore off a piece of skin with a tearing sound.
Under the skin, there is a layer of black-gray stuff.
Under the dim light, Wen Qingzhu turned the thing over, revealing its original appearance.
"High Priest, I brought what you asked for. Now you can let him go!" Wen Qingzhu smiled and turned to look at Concubine Wei.
The high priest took a deep breath and stared at Wen Qingzhu with gritted teeth: "It is indeed here with you! Lei Shuo is the cover you deliberately let out!"
"It doesn't count. It was indeed Sister Shuo who discovered it at first, but I knew what it was, so Sister Shuo left it to me!" Wen Qingzhu explained with a smile.
Su Huo turned around and found that it was a map.
"Master Su, this is a treasure map! If anyone can find it, they will become rich almost instantly!" Wen Qingzhu saw that they didn't know, so he simply explained it clearly.
The high priest looked at Wen Qingzhu: "As long as we release Concubine Wei, will you return the map to us? You will not interfere with other matters?"
"Of course." Wen Qingzhu looked at him deeply. The high priest's goal was the treasure map, but the goal of many survivors of the Yue Kingdom was actually Jiang Yue.
The reason why the high priest was able to mobilize all the survivors of the Yue Kingdom was because he was under the banner of killing Jiang Yue.
So even if he got the map, he still had to show off.
"Okay." The high priest agreed without hesitation. He was different from the other survivors of the Yue Kingdom.
Life is the most important thing.
At this moment, Li Wu took the lead and ran over from the moon gate.
"Girl! Haven't you rescued Concubine Wei yet?"
Wen Qingzhu's heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at Li Wu coming panting: "Master Li, did something happen over there at Qianyuan Palace?"
Li Wu glanced at the high priest over there: "King Ning was defeated and sent back. All military power was handed over to the Li family. Li Wei is now guarding the city with King Chu. Li Du has asked for orders to rescue Concubine Wei!"
"I'm afraid he didn't come here to kill Concubine Wei!" Wen Qingzhu's eyes darkened and he looked back, only to hear that the ground had begun to tremble.
"Luo Fei's matter is probably your fault, so why don't you leave first! Let Su Huo take care of the matter here!"
Li Wu knew about the grievances between Wen Qingzhu and Li Du, so he suggested it.
Wen Qingzhu turned back and looked at Mo Feizi and the high priest of Yue Kingdom.
When she was about to look away, she found that Concubine Wei was holding Mo Feizi's arm. Her hair was messy, and the cold sweat on her forehead was mixed with blood, and her hair was sticky and clinging to her face.
Even though she was in such a mess, Concubine Wei's eyes were still firm!
Wen Qingzhu even saw her eyes and seemed to let her stay again.
After hesitating for a moment, Wen Qingzhu said to Li Wu: "Master Li, thank you for daring to come and report this news, but you should leave first! It's time for Li Du and I to understand each other!"
"Girl! You!" Li Wu looked worried.
But footsteps could be heard outside Jingping Palace.
"Let's go! Mr. Li! I will protect Concubine Wei!" Wen Qingzhu pushed Li Wu's hand away and looked directly at the high priest of the Yue Kingdom.
"The stuff is right here! How about we make a deal?"
The high priest of the Yue Kingdom arched his eyebrows, raised his chin slightly, and looked at Wen Qingzhu with a smile: "You can ask us to take the blame, but Concubine Wei is beyond our control."
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways at Su Huo: "How is the martial arts of the person you brought here?"
"Medium, there is no problem in stopping Li Du, but Li Du came here on an order, so I can't give the order directly." Su Huo noticed her intention, "You don't want to..."
"I can guarantee you that I will not offend others unless they offend me." Wen Qingzhu knew what Su Huo meant, but Li Du's request to come here was too obvious.
She had no choice.
Within a quarter of an hour, Li Du arrived here with a group of black-armored soldiers.
Surrounded by soldiers, Li Du looked at Wen Qingzhu with a sinister look and walked towards her step by step.
Just when Li Du was about to arrive, Su Huo stepped forward and warned: "Master Li, the most important thing now is to rescue Concubine Wei!"
Li Du smiled evilly and glanced sideways at Concubine Wei who was being held hostage over there.
Turning his gaze back, he said maliciously: "Concubine Wei has committed adultery with the surviving members of the Yue Kingdom. It doesn't matter whether she is rescued or not!"
"Have Concubine Wei and the Wei family been convicted? Did the Emperor say not to save Concubine Wei?" Wen Qingzhu couldn't help but speak. Li Du's words were simply too deceiving!
"What difference does it make whether or not we will be convicted now?" Li Du looked at her gloomily, the murderous intent clearly evident in his eyes, "In addition to Concubine Wei, it will be a matter of time for you and Wen Qingzhu!"
Wen Qingzhu looked sideways and looked at the high priest.
Li Du's eyes were filled with joy. As expected, Wen Qingzhu had colluded with the surviving members of the Yue Kingdom!
Just when he was about to give instructions, Liu Liangren had already raised his hand, and a row of arrows flew over instantly.
"Retreat!" Su Huo shouted, covering Wen Qingzhu, Zhou Yi and others as they retreated to the side.
Li Du, who was belatedly aware of the situation, was the first to bear the brunt, but the people he brought with him were agile and immediately raised their shields to protect him.
"Kill these thieves who are working for tigers!" Liu Liangren looked at the people brought by Li Du, raised his sword and shouted.
In an instant, the survivors of the Yue Kingdom rushed towards them.
Su Huo led people to resist from the front, while Wen Qingzhu and Zhou Yi retreated to the back.
She looked at Li Du over there and didn't pay attention to this side for the time being, and whispered to Lu Tao: "Protect Miss Zhou and be careful to retreat!"
"Where's the lady?" Lu Tao was anxious. At this time, the sword has no eyes, it is the time of chaos.
Wen Qingzhu looked at Yang Liu and Bai Hao: "You two, follow me to rescue Concubine Wei. Be careful not to be shot by Li Du's people."
"My subordinates understand." Yang Liu knew that Wen Qingzhu wanted to give Li Du an opening.
After the explanation was completed, Wen Qingzhu followed Yang Liu and Bai Hao and walked along the wall to the door of the dormitory.
Just after leaving the protective circle of Su Huo, Li Du caught sight of them.
Li Du had brought enough people, but now he saw Wen Qingzhu running out automatically.
Naturally, he was very excited and immediately turned to the archer: "Fire arrows at Wen Qingzhu! Kill him without mercy!"
At this time, Wen Qingzhu and the others stood out among the fighting crowd.
Someone knew Yang Liu and said hesitantly: "Sir, the man next to Miss Wen is General Fu's man. Do we really want to shoot him directly?"
"What? Do you listen to me? Or do you listen to that traitor Fu Lie?" Li Du instantly became gloomy and looked coldly at the person who questioned him.
The archer immediately lowered his head: "I obey!"
Soon, the arrow flew towards Wen Qingzhu.
Yang Liu noticed it early, and immediately swung his sword, blocking the arrows with a few clicks.
Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Li Du: "Li Du! You actually dare to avenge yourself! Aren't you afraid of blaming the emperor!"
"So what! If you die, you will die without evidence!" Li Du responded loudly and arrogantly, not caring that there were other people here.
Wen Qingzhu turned to look at Mo Feizi and said without shying away from others: "Let's go rescue Concubine Wei first!"
Yang Liu protected them as they moved forward, while he kept blocking Li Du's arrows.
As they were about to reach the corridor, several people from the Yue Kingdom's surviving clan suddenly jumped out and stood in front of them.
Wen Qingzhu glanced sideways at the high priest, but saw a smile in his eyes, as if to say: You have to show off just to show off, right
Seeing the look in his eyes, Wen Qingzhu's heart sank, he gritted his teeth and protected Bai Haqi behind him with one hand.
Looking at the enemy in front of him, Wen Qingzhu suddenly raised his lips and smiled: "I heard that your cross-country barrier poison is unparalleled in the world. Why don't you come with my newly developed barrier poison?"
As those people approached, Wen Qingzhu flicked his sleeves, and several black wooden balls rolled to the ground.
After a while, it burst open and a thick purple smoke came out.
The smoke spread quickly, and Wen Qingzhu handed Bai Hao a pill: "Take this!"
Bai Haqi hurriedly took the pills and followed Wen Qingzhu's footsteps and continued to move forward against the wall.
The moment he saw the purple smoke, the high priest immediately covered his nose and retreated.
Staring at the purple smoke with solemn eyes.
The survivors of the Yue Kingdom who came under orders were unable to avoid them in time.
Within a few breaths, their whole bodies became weak, and they barely managed to avoid falling to the ground by supporting their bodies with weapons.
Wen Qingzhu looked at the high priest with a sneer on his lips.
Since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust.
She even told him with her mouth: There was no way, after all, we couldn't let Li Du get the handle.
Seeing Wen Qingzhu like this, the high priest almost clapped his hands and praised him!
awesome!
There were still gusts of cold wind in the early spring night, and soon it reached Li Du's side.
Suho, who reacted early, led his men to avoid the wind direction.
Li Du naturally saw it and immediately ran in the direction of Su Huo.
But he brought too many people, and half of them still inhaled the smoke and fell to the ground.
In this way, most of the remaining members of the Yue Kingdom and Li Du's people were placed in the group.
The cold wind kept blowing, and the smoke quickly dispersed.
Wen Qingzhu and the others took the opportunity to arrive in front of Mo Feizi.
She tried her best to persuade Mo Feizi: "Mr. Mo, as long as you let Concubine Wei go, I can say anything! Even if you want to leave! I can convince the emperor to let you leave safely."
Mo Feizi tightened the sword in his hand and glanced at Li Du and the others: "You can't even protect yourself, how can you still be our master?"
"Don't worry, Li Du is not a problem!" Wen Qingzhu patiently persuaded Mo Feizi, even though he knew in his heart that he would not harm Concubine Wei.
But Bai Hao didn't know. She followed Wen Qingzhu's words and said, "Mr. Mo, you can do whatever you want! As long as you let the imperial concubine go first, she is so seriously injured that she will die if she is delayed!"
"Hmph!" Mo Feizi snorted coldly, paying no attention to Bai Haqi, but looked at Wen Qingzhu quietly.
He knew that Wen Qingzhu knew that he had not harmed Concubine Wei.
