Feng Yin

Chapter 142

The cold wind howled and the horses galloped.

The afternoon sun pierces through the forest and hits the leaves, wandering on the winding path.

The horse raised its hooves and galloped all the way,
On the horseback, sat two young men dressed as soldiers.

Mei Wuyan was wearing armor, with a steel helmet on her head and a whip on her head, and Nan Gongruo in front of her was also dressed as a guard with a sword. At this moment, she was surrounded by Mei Wuyan on her chest. Following the gallop of the horse below her, she rushed towards distance.

After walking for a long time, Nangong Ruo looked around at the surrounding scenery, which became more and more familiar. He suddenly became suspicious, and suddenly raised his hand and grabbed the rein.

"Mei Wuyan, what tricks are you playing?"

The steed, which was struggling forward, was stimulated by Nangong Ruo's sudden pull, and immediately raised its front hooves and let out bursts of private noises.

Mei Wuyan was startled, and hastily grasped the reins tightly, stabilizing her shaking body in an instant.

The startled horse lingered on the spot, Mei Wuyan dismounted and shouted angrily:

"Nangongruo, if you want to die, don't drag me as a backstop!"

Nangong Ruo didn't show any weakness at all, and got off the horse straight away: "Didn't you say that you want to take me to find Prince Rui? But this road now leads to Tianhua Imperial Capital, do you really think I'm a fool?!"

Mei Wuyan let out a cold snort of disdain, immediately took off her helmet, and fell straight to the ground:

"Pretending to be smart! Who told you that Prince Rui is not in the imperial capital?!"

Nangong Ruo was taken aback when he heard the sound: "What did you say? Prince Rui is in Tianhua City? How is that possible?!"

"How is it impossible? If I were him, I would not go anywhere except Tianhua City now!"

If Nangong didn't know what medicine she sold in the gourd, he lost his mind for a while, and his heart was full of doubts: "You are lying to me again, Mei Wuyan, you don't even know where the prince is?!"

Mei Wuyan glanced at her: "Long hair, short knowledge! How could such an idiot like you be born in Muyun Village!"

If Nangong didn't care about her cursing, his eyes were full of Prince Ling Rui: "Speak clearly, do you know, or don't you know, where is Prince Rui?!"

Mei Wuyan elongated her voice, and chanted nonchalantly: "The most dangerous place is the safest place, should I have heard of this saying, Concubine Xiang?!"

Nangong Ruo turned his eyes to think, still full of puzzlement: "What are you trying to say!?"

"Nowadays, the whole country in Nanchuan knows that Prince Rui disappeared in the midst of the chaos, and your emperor's husband is looking for Uncle Prince Rui's sheep's head, but what he sells is dog meat that's 'shoot and kill, burn the body to wipe out traces'! Xiang Empress Concubine, please use your elm head to think carefully, besides Tianhua City, where is the most dangerous place in the whole country now!"

Nangong Ruo was skeptical: "Even if you are right, the emperor is not a three-year-old child. Now that you can think of this level, can the emperor not think of this level?!"

Mei Wuyan sneered disdainfully: "So what if he thought of it? With his little ability, he wants to fight Prince Rui, hmph, I'm afraid he's too tender!"

Nangong Ruo tried his best but still couldn't figure out Mei Wuyan's deepest plan, then turned his head angrily, and said aggressively: "Don't play tricks here, after all, the whereabouts of Prince Rui is just your own speculation. That's all?!"

Mei Wuyan raised her eyebrows, and there was a gloomy and strange look in her eyes:
"Empress Xiangfei, how about we make a bet?"

Nangong Ruo was vigilant: "What bet? When you escaped from the Peach Blossom Temple just now, you already threatened me, asking me to intercede for you in front of the emperor and restore your Mei family's reputation! I said that as long as you can help me Find Prince Rui, I will definitely do what I say, but if you just want to play tricks on me, then wait for the emperor to come and take your life!"

Mei Wuyan disapproved: "The condition just now is that I just promised to take you to find Prince Rui, but I didn't say that I will definitely help you find it!"

"you……"

Nangong Ruo turned around angrily, and pointed at Mei Wuyan with her finger. The clinker Mei Wuyan suddenly raised her hand, grabbed Nan Gongruo's arm tightly, and said solemnly:

"Prince Rui is in Tianhua City, believe it or not, but can you find his golden cup..."

Nangong Ruofa shook off her hand: "Okay, I bet! I bet you will die!"

Mei Wuyan raised her lips and smiled: "It's so good! Mei Wuyan is willing to gamble and admit defeat. If you win, I will let you be hacked into pieces. If I win, hehe..."

Nangong Ruo could not help frowning angrily when he saw that she was acting weird again.

I saw Mei Wuyan staring at Nan Gongruo's beautiful eyes, and said viciously:

"If I win, I want you, Nan Gongruo, to destroy your beauty in person in front of Prince Rui! And in front of your emperor's husband, you will be the matchmaker for me to marry Prince Rui!"

Nangong Ruo was stunned when he heard the sound, and the next moment he couldn't help but mocked: "So, you care about him more than I do!"

"How? To gamble or not to gamble?!" A trace of eagerness flashed in Mei Wuyan's eyes.

Nangong Ruo looked sideways coldly: "Since you care about him so much, even if I don't bet, I believe you can find him!"

As soon as the words finished, Mei Wuyan snorted coldly: "You are wrong, if you are willing to bet, King Ling Rui will still be a human being; if you don't bet, Lang Xiexuan will definitely be a corpse!"

Nangong Ruo frowned again in shock, only to hear that charming and ruthless cold voice resounding from the side:

"If you have to get the person, you will get the corpse!"

……

Peach Blossom Temple.

Ouyang Yu stood stunned in the bloody courtyard under the setting sun.

In front of him, lay an unrecognizable female corpse, but he saw that the body of the corpse was very similar to Nangong Ruo, but at this moment, the brocade clothes around her body were already messy, but the golden flowing clouds on the cuffs were stained. Pieces of blood red, but still can't conceal the dignity of the owner of the clothes.

Ouyang Yu, whose eyes were full of blood, clenched his palms into fists, and his whole body trembled involuntarily. The raging anger in his heart burned through his bones through the wind of resentment in his eyes.

"Master Minister, the body of Concubine Xiang has been found, do you think we should report to the Holy Majesty immediately, or..."

Before he could finish speaking, Ouyang Yu suddenly turned around and stared straight at the guard who was trying to persuade him with bloody eyes.

The guard saw that every pore on his body seemed to be exuding resentment and hatred, he hurriedly knelt down and bowed his head, and said in a deep voice: "This subordinate should die!"

Ouyang Yu turned around angrily, and said angrily: "Look again! Even if you dig out the entire Peach Blossom Temple, you have to find Concubine Xiang!"

When everyone heard the sound, they frowned unknowingly, first glanced at the female corpse in front of them in unison, and then looked at each other silently.

Ouyang Yu saw everyone standing there holding swords, and became furious all of a sudden: "What are you waiting for! Why don't you look for it quickly! If you can't find Concubine Xiang today, you will all leave your lives here!"

Everyone bowed their heads in unison: "Yes! This subordinate takes orders!"

As soon as the voice fell, it was a search in all directions.

The ink clouds in the western sky formed a bridge, overlooking the blossoming clouds of blood below him. After a moment of shame, he transformed into a monster with a violent image, mercilessly swallowing up the few remaining clouds of blood.

In the Peach Blossom Temple, the torches were burning with raging fire, shining brightly in the dark night sky.

A group of guards stood around, everyone had a solemn face, and suddenly bowed their heads silently.

Ouyang Yu knelt down on his knees, kneeling in front of the female corpse with a face of despair, as if petrified, motionless.

After an unknown amount of time, Ouyang Yu calmly raised his eyes, glanced at the guards around him, and said solemnly:
"Go back and report to the Holy Majesty, Concubine Xiang...something has happened to her!"

When everyone heard the sound, they stared at each other unconsciously.

"My lord servant, I think we should transport the empress's body back to the imperial capital so that the emperor can..."

Before he finished speaking, Ouyang Yu suddenly became angry, grabbed the guard's skirt, and said angrily: "If the emperor sees her, will she be able to come back to life?! Tell me, tell me!"

Seeing him furious, everyone immediately bowed their heads and fell silent.

After a while, Ouyang Yu let go of the guard, closed his eyes and waved his hands, sighing:

"Even if you want to give it away, you have to give her some dignity!"

Everyone understood, and there was another silence.

"Let's go, I will bring Xiangfei and Empress Xiang to return to the imperial capital tomorrow!"

Everyone retreated in response, Ouyang Yu slowly picked up the corpse, quietly walked towards a well in the nunnery, and gently placed it on the ground.

"Miss Nangong, Ouyang has never told you what's in his heart. Although it's too late now, Ouyang still wants to say what's in his heart!"

Ouyang Yu was heartbroken and took out a brocade handkerchief, and wiped it on the face of the female corpse whose face could no longer be seen clearly.

"Before I met you, I thought that love at first sight was just a legend!"

"You may not know that your every frown and smile are deeply imprinted in my heart."

"The most unseen thing is your tears! When you cry, I feel inexplicably sad! That day at Muyun Villa, it was my greatest honor in my life, Ouyang, to wipe away your tears!"

"Unfortunately, I'm too cowardly to tell you!"

With trembling hands, Ouyang Yu fastened the silver silk and snow silk satin around her waist, and opened his mouth again, two tears were streaming down his face:
"I really like you!"

There was no sound in the quiet night, Ouyang Yu's deliberately suppressed sobs sounded so sad.

Just as Ouyang Yu was hugging the female corpse and whimpering in pain, there was a muffled rustling sound from a wall not far behind him.

Ouyang Yu frowned, and quietly placed the female corpse in his arms on the ground. Then, he clenched the long sword at his waist and walked straight away following the sound.

But after a while, Ouyang Yu stood at the corner of the wall, listened intently, and felt vigilant.

"Strange, how does this sound seem to come from the wall?!"

Ouyang Yu looked at the wall for a long time, then quietly raised his hand, and stretched his strength towards the wall.

After the strength of the palm had passed, there was a muffled rumble, and Ouyang Yu stepped sideways, staring again, and was startled: "Why are you guys?!"

Two guards in middle coats were wearing ropes, each with a huge stone stuffed in their mouths, whining about to say something.

Ouyang Yu grabbed the stone from their mouths, and immediately heard a shocking news:

"Xiang... Concubine Xiang... was robbed..."

……

On the bank of the cold river, in the maple forest, the night wind howls, sweeping the decadent yellow all over the place.

In Jialan Garden, a voice of resistance full of hatred resounded in the quiet night sky.

"No, I can not!"

When the night wind blows, it raises the purple gauze wrapped around her arms, and in an instant, two winged flying squirrels open their teeth and claws in the air following her agitation...
