Chen Palace

Chapter 107 Melting Ice
Countless luminous lights floated in the air, like merman tears, twinkling like stars, flying out from the water sleeves.

These thousands of brilliance are forged into a horse, and the sky is covered by the moon. Every needle, every tip, is like a dragon swimming in the sky. Under the flying and shining, there are countless strange changes.

Like thousands of flowers blooming together, countless thin needles shining with dazzling cold light swayed straight down in the night sky, like a dense rain of stars.

Unable to dodge in time, Zhou Jun tore off his cloak with his backhand in a flash, and lingered towards the curtain of needles.

His wrist strength is calm, and all relying on the word 'clever', he can turn around smoothly, which shows the depth of his internal strength.

Chen Lu smiled slightly, and pierced her fingertips, the tens of thousands of fine needles suddenly collapsed, piercing countless small holes in the cloak, and finally burst out.

Zhou Jun's complexion changed drastically, and he retreated ten feet like smoke and dust, barely avoiding the hive-like tragedy. There was an inexplicable light in his eyes, trembling between his brows, and he shouted, "Hold on!"

The thousands of fine needles were not restrained, following the faint moonlight swaying to catch up, Zhou Jun dodged to dodge, and said solemnly: "Don't force people too much... The things in your hands are not trivial, how dare you reappear in the world?!"

The streamer curtain made up of fine needles was gathered in an instant, and after the light gathered, it returned to the sleeve again, and Chen Lu looked deeply at him——

"Have you seen it?!"

"Thirty years ago, the Tongguan victory..."

Zhou Jun was immersed in memories, and said slowly.

Chen Lu's hand trembled unnoticed: "So, have you seen its owner?!"

"Of course!"

Zhou Jun said solemnly: "Although the obliterated past is not recorded in the annals of history, how many soldiers who witnessed it with their own eyes can forget it?!"

He looked up at Chen Lu, his eyes no longer cold and harsh: "Are you Lin Chen's descendant?"

Chen Lu didn't answer, her fingers were slightly whitish.

"If you really have a relationship with her, you should know that the imperial court owes her a lot...Why do you want to be used by the emperor?!"

After he spoke, his eyes were piercing, and he held a long sword in his hand, and asked sharply.

Chen Lu looked at him for a long time before asking back: "There is a gap between the general and the royal family... because of the girl who was kidnapped by the Tatars?"

Zhou Jun was furious, and snorted coldly: "That little bastard said all this to save people!!"

He was about to leave, but he heard a voiceless voice behind him: "Wait a minute!"

"General, I didn't intend to spy on people's privacy...it's just—we all share the same heart!!"

When she said the last sentence, her heart was already agitated. Years of unwillingness and resentment surged in her heart like cracking ice and breaking embankments.

Zhou Jun turned around in astonishment, but seeing her in plain clothes like snow, she was melancholy, with a dashing and heroic spirit, soaring to the sky.

If he smiled knowingly, he turned and left without pursuing the betrayal of his daughter and his beloved general.

In the night wind, only one sentence remained——

"Come to my mansion in the capital..."

After rescuing a man and a woman on the ground, it was almost dawn, and at the end of the sky, the blue-white dawn was faintly revealed. To the somewhat dazed young man, Chen Lu only said: "She is not dead, waiting for you at the agreed place."

Seeing the young man ecstatic because of this sentence, a big stone in her heart finally landed——

Concubine Zhou, I have already done what I promised you!
She helped up the competent subordinate in the "Chen Tower", and found that she was only hit by the sleeping point, so she felt relieved.

Looking at the sky, she murmured softly, "Is it dawn soon..."

Without further hesitation, she got up and left slowly. The deep and dark prison was gradually left behind.

****
When the emperor got up early in the morning, he heard that the queen mother was not feeling well, so he sent the imperial physician to visit, but he hesitated to speak vaguely, which made him irritable, and the imperial physician whispered a few words.

"Seeing ghosts at night...?!"

The emperor said in disbelief, frowning slightly.

The imperial physician gave a dry cough in some embarrassment: "The empress dowager is physically weak, and her liver qi is stagnant. I have such illusions."

"Then take medicine!"

The emperor thought for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so he had to give such orders.

After the imperial doctor left, Chen Lu came out from behind the screen, and thoughtfully said: "Speaking of the Empress Dowager's illness, I heard something new in the Compassion Ning Palace this morning."

Yuan Qi was very interested, so he asked.

"It is said that the Queen Mother had nightmares all night, facing the window lattice, she repeatedly said, 'Don't come here...you are already dead, but what are you pestering me for'."

When she spoke in a low voice, the eerie coldness in her words was like being in a relative's place.

Yuan Qi heard that she had learned it, but felt strange and ominous. On a sunny day, he actually felt a chill from the bottom of his heart.

He was about to speak, but he heard a commotion outside the hall, Qin Xi came to stop him, and after a while, he came in and said: "Your Majesty, the prison was robbed last night, and the criminals in the case of Concubine Zhou have disappeared! "

Yuan Qi was already angry when he heard it, and after thinking about it for a while, he looked at the beautiful woman beside him.

"The emperor sees what I do, could it be that I am the culprit?"

Chen Lu smiled gracefully and said indifferently.

Yuan Qi recalled that she had pleaded for mercy the day before yesterday, and had become suspicious, but he could not believe it, so he continued to ask: "Has anyone seen the murderer?"

Qin Xi came to see the master, and after some questioning, he replied: "This man is dressed in a black robe, his eyes are like lightning, and his temples are slightly frosted."

Yuan Qi had a flash of inspiration, and said decisively: "Zhou Jun!"

Chen Lu lowered her head slightly, covered the corners of her mouth and smiled, she smiled playfully——

This is not a big or small scapegoat, let General Zhou carry it!

She stood up gracefully, and said comfortingly: "That is his subordinate after all, and he sneaked into the palace without any malicious intentions."

Yuan Qi's face was a little pale, and he slowly suppressed the anger in his heart, only to hear Chen Lu whisper: "The vassal kings are not coming in a good way, and that is the serious trouble."

Yuan Qi sneered indifferently and said: "They came to Beijing this time, and they have secretly discussed many times in private!"

"There's also King Jing... He failed to withhold military supplies last time, but still dared to meet with the prince in secret—who gave him such a boldness?"

Chen Lu reminded.

They were talking about the kings, but they said that King Jing also came to the palace today to see the Queen Mother.

He kowtowed inside, the queen mother beckoned to him, called to him, looked at it for a while, and then said: "Looks like you have lost a lot of weight, isn't there anyone in your house who knows how to serve you?!"

King Jing waved his folding fan and smiled unrestrainedly: "The queen mother loves her son very much. In fact, she has been staying at home lately, sleeping when she is full, and she has gained a lot of weight."

"That's what you asked for!"

The Empress Dowager said half-annoyed and half-annoyed: "You start to deal with the supply and military supplies, can you treat your emperor brother as a fool?!"

King Jing smiled bitterly: "Under this world, the most ignorant person is Brother Huang..."

The queen mother saw him so slightly slumped, she knew it well, ordered someone to bring her lotus seed soup, and asked: "Why do you come here today?"

"I heard that my mother's phoenix is ​​not in good health, and I can't sleep or eat. I was thinking about it, so I came here."

The Empress Dowager's heart warmed up, but she said in her mouth: "You are full of sweet words... Are those restless ones looking for you again?"

King Jing said: "The queen mother is lucky, they are a little anxious!"
