Feng Yin

Chapter 192 Success or Failure

Remnant clouds piled up, and it was overcast and cold.

Amidst the bleak and severe cold, the people of Tianhua in the Nanchuan Imperial Capital ushered in the first winter of the third year of Zhenyuan.

However, unlike in the past, this year's cold weather seems to be more ferocious than usual. For a while, the cold fog accompanied by the rumors that were spread and spread in the market at no time, easily created panic.

"King Ling Rui killed Zhenyuan with an arrow, and Chu Lihou gave up his life to protect the king! Alas, I really didn't expect such a thing to happen!"

"That's right! I thought that no matter how bastard King Ling Rui is, he wants to protect his family after all! But I didn't expect that he would assassinate the Holy Spirit so blatantly! Fortunately, Chu Lihou, who resigned from Chu to Sichuan, really deserves to be A dignified gentleman can actually disregard his life and block arrows for the saint!"

"In this way, we really misunderstood Na Liluo before?! I heard that the King of Eastern Chu was unfortunately kidnapped on his way to Sichuan, and there has been no news of it until now. In order to live up to his holy order, Liluo even ignored the safety of his biological father. , determined to fulfill their duties! Such loyalty is really rare!"

"I heard that it's all because of that holy lady! King Ling Rui, relying on his all-time flair, clings to Chu Lihou's sweetheart, and the reason why Chu Lihou resigned from Chu Touchuan is known by everyone in the world." You know, it is because of the beauty in your heart, that is, the holy lady. King Ling Rui can't see the beauty he covets, being coveted by others, so in a fit of anger, he drives a crossbow dragon and kills!"

"Oh! It's really a beauty! But how did I hear that the holy lady has long been willing with the owner of Eryun Island from Lingshan overseas? Moreover, the owner of the island spared no expense to buy it in order to keep Chanjuan. After leaving Muyun Villa, I will marry the saint in a few days!"

"Oh? There is such a thing! The owner of Eryun Island has always been mysterious. He doesn't show his true face all day long, but he doesn't know who he is? Who is the saint girl in love with?"

"How can the saint be her own master? I heard that she is now under house arrest by the empress dowager in the harem. What did she say 'unidentified, confusing people'!"

"Damn! Don't talk about the saintess being tall and the saintess being short! Haven't you heard that the saint is not someone else, and her real identity is the end-of-the-world beauty who defeated Chengyuan Emperor Jiangshan, Qing Rui Ma'am! And the real details of Mrs. Qingrui, hehe, I'm afraid you can't think of it!"

"What? Mrs. Qingrui!? The saintly lady is the confidante who has brought disaster to the country, Mrs. Qingrui?! How is this possible! A few days ago, there was still a lot of noise, saying that the saintly woman is the daughter of Feng Lin, why is she now Some of them have become former court officials!"

"Bullshit! What a former court official! We were all deceived by her, and we always thought she was holy and elegant, but we didn't know that she was the most lowly barracks prostitute from Beiliao!"

"Ah? Military prostitute?!"

"This... this... is simply unbelievable! Mrs. Qingrui, the holy lady, is a military prostitute in the Northern Liao Dynasty?!"

Gossip and gossip, accompanied by the excitement of the crowd, spread in the most luxurious "Sifang Inn" in Tianhua City.

Accompanied by the noise, the elegant room in Qiongtian Pavilion on the second floor suddenly let out a triumphant voice:
"My son now loves a poem by you Nanchuan people, what is it called 'The mountain is heavy and the river is full of doubts, and there is no way out, and the willows are dark and the flowers are bright, and there is another village!'"

On a sparrow-screen reclining chair by the flower window, she was dressed in dark red and lay enchantingly. Two gleaming golden long live eyes hovered leisurely on the white palm of the jade-like hand, and circled out in such a careless way. His heart is full of scheming.

In the middle of the elegant room, there is a peony screen with a national beauty and heavenly fragrance, which is gorgeous and radiant, but quietly.

After Mr. Mo Yue stopped speaking, he heard a quiet and elegant voice from behind the screen:
"The Qiankun Jade Lock has reappeared in the sky! Such a great opportunity, what are you waiting for, my lord!"

Hearing the sound, Young Master Mo Yue raised his elbows, slowly propped up his upper body, stretched out his hands and stroked quietly in the air seemingly nonchalantly, but muttered with great interest:
"Madam Qingrui!"

As soon as the words fell, a lifelike portrait suddenly appeared in the air in front of him.

Young Master Mo Yue looked at the smiling face in the air, and smiled slightly, but the next moment he suddenly raised his hand, and smashed that delicate face away without a trace:
"My lord can't wait to meet this so-called Qingrui for a while!"

A white wolf appeared in an instant, circling Mo Yue with a frightening roar.

Behind the peony screen, the crescent eyebrows were slightly frowned, and the red lips were slightly parted. It seemed that some words were lingering in her heart, but they were blocked in her throat for a while, and she was about to speak. :
"I, you are not allowed to hurt her!"

……

The mystery in Qiongtian Pavilion continued to unfold, but the hustle and bustle in the lobby of the Sifang Inn had already raged to the extreme with everyone's wild speculations.

"Kill! If you don't kill her, it's really hard for the people to be angry!"

"That's right, it's unreasonable to play my Nanchuan Junmin in the palm of my hand like this!"

"In my opinion, let's behead him as a prostitute, together with that domineering and useless King Ling Rui, and beheaded for public display, so that we can relieve our great hatred!"

……

The sound of righteous indignation sounded, and the room was full of indignation.

At a small table in the corner of the hall, an old woman straightened up suddenly, opened her mouth eagerly, and made a hoarse and vague sound.

Seeing this situation, the people around him immediately clamored:

"Look! You can't even listen to this dumb woman. If you say you don't kill the two of them, there is no reason for it!"

As soon as this remark came out, everyone became more and more excited. The old woman covered her face, but she was still eager. She was about to step up to explain something to the people around her, but suddenly her feet were heavy, followed by a burst of unbearable pain. dull pain.

The old woman staggered back to the stool and couldn't help coughing violently!In an instant, I saw the old man with white beard and hair who had been sitting on the opposite side with his head buried all the time, and suddenly moved quickly to the side of the old woman with a panicked expression, while patting the old woman's back forcefully while making a hoarse voice , advised:
"Old woman, you forgot to take your medicine again! Come on, come home with the old man and take your medicine!"

After saying that, he dragged the old woman out of the Sifang Inn involuntarily.

Looking up at the flower window of Qiongyu Pavilion, a pair of bright eyes swept out the window intentionally or unintentionally, but in an instant, the pair of old men who had just walked out of the Sifang Inn whispered in surprise:

"Empress, if you want to survive, give up the idea of ​​running away as soon as possible! If not, don't blame me for being rude!"

……

Thick cloudy clouds dodge around erratically in the gloomy cold wind. Occasionally, when there is a gust of gust of wind, the layer of clouds will be frightened and broken into pieces.After the gust of wind subsided, those cloud clusters that hadn't had time to escape were tightly reunited together in an instant.

Inside the Punishment Department, the candles were brightly lit, but the ubiquitous cold still couldn't be dispelled.

Lang Xiexuan, who was shackled and shackled, drank freely, dripping down his messy hair and beard, and dipped directly into the cold ground under his feet.

On the opposite side of Lang Xiexuan, a middle-aged man stood with his hair tied up. At this moment, he was gazing at Lang Xiexuan who was drinking in the opposite prison cell. Disappointment and indescribable disappointment appeared on his ice-like face. complex emotions.

Lang Xiexuan drank a jar of strong wine, raised his arms, and threw the empty altar in his hand aside.

"Ugh!"

A soft sigh sounded from all over, Lang Xiexuan raised his eyebrows and turned around, shaking the iron lock on his wrist, and said in a drawn out voice that seemed drunk but not drunk:
"Strange! It's the first time that someone feels sorry for this king! You prisoner, it's interesting!"

The middle-aged man shook his head slightly, then turned around silently, facing the wall without saying a word.

Seeing him like this, Lang Xiexuan didn't ask any further questions, just shook the shackles, picked up the jar of wine by his side again, clapped his hands to open it, and teased in a cold voice:

"Have a temper! It's a pity, he is a dying person!"

The man tilted his head slightly, and slowly frowned:
"The prince is so self-willed and depraved, it may not be a good thing to die!"

King Ling Rui took a sip of strong wine, dangled the iron lock, and walked to the prison door:
"The people who want me, Lang Xiexuan, to die, one more is not too many, and one less is not less! Tell me, why do you want me to die?!"

The man let out another long sigh, and immediately faced the wall, not talking to him any more.

Lang Xiexuan became interested, and asked more and more:

"If you don't want to say it, then let me guess!"

Lang Xiexuan took a sip and said quietly:

"It is true that I, Lang Xiexuan, have killed countless people, but if you look closely, none of them were innocent souls! Could it be that Your Excellency cursed me to death because of my vendetta for murder!"

The man shook his head slightly and said quietly:

"My lord and I have no grievances or enmities!"

Lang Xiexuan frowned upon hearing the sound: "Oh? It's not a vendetta, but it's just like ordinary people outside the prisons. They are jealous of my king's chic freedom, envious of my beauty?!"

Hearing the sound, the man sighed: "Why bother to despise yourself! If this is the case, even if you die, what face will you have to meet your ancestors!"

Lang Xiexuan was startled when he heard the sound, his heart couldn't help tightening, and he immediately raised his vigilance:
"It's not a vendetta, it's not jealousy of my king's beauty, then, you must be a spy from another country hiding in my Nanchuan? Tell me, who are you?!"

The man snorted coldly, turned around angrily, and immediately cupped his hands in the sky:
"My official said, I was born as a Nanchuan person, and died as a Nanchuan ghost! How can I tolerate such insults from you!"

Lang Xiexuan was taken aback when he heard the sound, and suddenly murmured:
"Guan Zeming?! You are the chief of the Punishment Department who was dismissed from his official position within a few days after taking office, Guan Zeming!"

Guan Zeming flicked his sleeves when he heard the sound: "If you're going, don't change your name, if you're sitting, don't change your surname!"

Lang Xiexuan frowned and rolled his eyes, General Zeming sized him up and down:
"You...wasn't released by my holy nephew? Why...are you locked in this prison again!"

Guan Zeming snorted coldly, and gave Lang Xiexuan a hard look:
"Guan keeps his word and promises to others, and will definitely go all out! If he can't do it, he would rather die! Unlike someone who takes oaths as a joke, even his own father dares to lie!"

Lang Xiexuan was furious when he heard the sound, and his face turned cold instantly:
"You are so brave!"

Guan Zeming stepped forward angrily:

"If I knew you were so depraved, I shouldn't have saved you 20 years ago!"
