Work overtime

Li Beihong turned around, looked at Jiang Yuebai reluctantly, and left in a hurry.

There were only the two of them left in the house.

Li Beichen silently stared at Jiang Yuebai, who had his eyes lowered and absent-mindedly. He didn't know how to comfort him.

He stretched out his hand to touch her head, but she dodged it without leaving a trace and put down his hand silently.

He wanted to speak out to comfort him, but he couldn't. In the end, it turned into a hoarse low cry, "玚皎", which contained all his emotions.

"Your Majesty, if nothing happens, I would like to go back to Taorui Palace tonight." Jiang Yuebai lowered his head and looked at his toes.

Since there is an emperor here, there are six princes, and there are Jinwu Guards guarding outside.He probably doesn't need her either.

And Jinxiu needs her.She wanted to go back and accompany her sister to give her a ride.

Whether it is the Queen Mother or the Emperor, there are many people who protect them and care about them.

But Jinxiu only has her.

Jinxiu has always been afraid of the dark and being alone.It must be scary to be alone in Taorui Palace right now, right?

Her eyes were filled with tears, full of sadness, and she was a little absent-minded.

Li Beichen hesitated to speak, and simply held her shoulders, hugged her into his arms, and kissed her hair, "I feel at ease when you stay by my side."

"But Jinxiu needs me."

Jiang Yuebai took the initiative to bury his face in Li Beichen's arms for the first time. Tears filled his eyes, and he even felt comfortable against Li Beichen's cold armor.

Li Beichen patted her back gently and nodded, "I know. When the matter is over, I will accompany you to give Jinxiu a ride."

He paused, his eyes suddenly a little moist, "Why don't I send you through the secret passage. There may be a fierce battle tonight. The secret passage is in Cining Palace. The further you go, the better. Don't come back. You've done enough for me."

"Why? Why did you send me away so suddenly?" Jiang Yuebai raised his head from Li Beichen's arms, not knowing why.

Li Beichen stroked her cheek, "I hope you can live well. I promised Jinxiu that I will protect you and let you live well. Come with me, you can leave now."

Jiang Yuebai shook his head, "I understand the emperor's intention, but you know that I will not leave. Your Majesty, you are here, how can I leave you alone?"

"But Jiao Jiao," Li Beichen's eyes moistened after hearing these words, and all the unspeakable words turned into a passionate kiss and affectionate murmur, "Jiao Jiao."

It seemed that he wanted to comfort her through this kiss and tell her how much he cared about her, loved her and could not lose her.

Jiang Yuebai hugged Li Beichen, tears rolled down her eyes, and a complex emotion made her respond fiercely to Li Beichen's kiss.

The kiss was short.

Jiang Yuebai pushed Li Beichen away violently.

The enemy can attack at any time, and the current crisis is not the time to act emotionally.

Life often pushes us to move forward, and even sadness is a luxury that needs to be endured with tears.

Jiang Yuebai wiped away her tears, as if nothing had happened, her brows were solemn, "Your Majesty, there are torches lit everywhere to prevent someone from setting fire tonight."

Li Beichen turned to look out the window and vaguely noticed that the faint light outside was unusual. "Bright, bright, something is wrong outside. Quick, let's go out and take a look."

Suddenly there were several sharp meows, followed by bursts of hurried footsteps, mixed with the panicked shouts of the palace people, "There's a fire, there's a fire in the Queen Mother's chamber!"

Jiang Yuebai subconsciously stood in front of Li Beichen with his sword, "Your Majesty, be careful, there is a deceit in this. Someone will take advantage of the chaos to assassinate you. Your Majesty, please leave the palace through a secret passage and leave your concubine behind. You will leave the green hills behind, so you don't have to worry about running out of firewood." "

Li Beichen grabbed Jiang Yuebai's hand and said, "You and I will advance and retreat together. Please be careful for a while."

Pulling Jiang Yuebai behind him, "Follow me. Help me guard against sneak attacks from behind."

"Okay." Jiang Yuebai replied without thinking, with a bit of cold evil aura in his eyebrows.

She didn't realize that Li Beichen wanted to protect her.

Jiang Yuebai keenly noticed that someone was throwing torches in every window, and flames immediately began to rise. There were carpets everywhere in the house, and soon it became a raging fire and spread.

Li Beichen also noticed something unusual, grabbed Jiang Yuebai's hand, raised his feet and rushed out, "Quickly! Someone is setting fire!"

The two men jumped out of the nearest window with swords in hand, and sure enough they heard the sound of fighting.

At this time, the Queen Mother's bedroom had turned into a sea of ​​fire, and the Queen Mother's painful screams and calls came from inside, but they were much weaker than before.

The two of them exclaimed in unison.The bedroom was filled with glazed lamps.If a thief breaks in first and breaks these glazed lamps, they may burn faster.

A young eunuch who ran out of the palace in a panic knelt on the ground, threw himself at the feet of the guards who came over, and pointed toward the palace where the flames were spreading, "The Queen Mother, hurry up and save the Queen Mother."

The poor little eunuch was killed with a knife by the guards who came over.

The man in the guard uniform is not one of our own at all.

It seems that someone has already invaded. Perhaps there is someone lurking among the guards.

A ray of cold light passed by, and the moment Jiang Yuebai blinked, the guard's head suddenly fell, and he spun twice on the ground before falling down.

Li Beichen took back his sword, only to find that he was surrounded by people.

Staring at the five people surrounding them, Li Beichen stood sideways, his face extremely cold, and the sword in his hand was still dripping with blood.

He was faced with an important choice at this time.

Go in and save people yourself, or let Jiang Yuebai go in and save people.There is a wolf in front and a tiger behind, both of which are at risk of death.

The final decision was, "Jiaojiao, you break in through the side window, don't go through the front door. I'll be here right away."

Jiang Yuebai looked at the sea of ​​fire, gritted his teeth and said loudly, "Okay. Your Majesty, be careful."

After saying that, he slashed with his sword and rushed out of the encirclement.

Only one of the five people was heard shouting: "Don't worry about that woman. The Queen Mother will not survive. Whoever takes Li Beichen's head will be made a marquis!"

A loud "kill" sound erupted from Li Beichen's throat, and then a cold light flashed, and the head of the man in the middle had fallen to the ground.

Li Beichen's kingly aura in armor shocked the entire audience, making people feel shuddered and surrendered unconsciously.

His sword eyebrows and his narrow red phoenix eyes are as sharp as swords.

The eyes of the remaining four people were full of horror, but after being stunned for a moment, they rushed forward desperately brandishing their weapons.

They thought they could not defeat Li Beichen alone, but it was impossible for a group of people to defeat him.

Obviously these four people are top players.

The one in the middle is not the most powerful one, but the one who talks the most and is the most popular.

Li Beichen was entangled by four people, and soon four more came.

Then, three fireworks soared over Cining Palace, exploded above their heads, and bloomed into blue and purple flowers.

This is a signal to people outside.

Whose people are they? !
Is it!
