Qingling Punishing Heart

Chapter 144 The Night of the Full Moon
The stars are dim, and the full moon hangs high, sometimes hidden in the clouds, sometimes appearing like a jade plate.

Tonight, not a single palace in the palace was lit.Looking from a distance, there are a lot of black shadows, which makes people feel a little weird.

Quietly, a noise broke the silence in the moonlight.

"His Royal Highness!" Li Hongxi clutched his stomach, struggling to catch up with Ji Gongyan who was running ahead, and shouted weakly: "The emperor has ordered that anyone who goes out on a full moon night will be shot to death! Come back with me!"

Ji Gongyan curled her lips, and turned around and shouted: "Big bald head! Today is the 12th birthday of the prince, so no one will care about me!"

Li Hongxi clutched his stomach and shook his head. Unexpectedly, this little prince would use his birthday as an excuse to be disobedient.

Ji Gongyan showed a sly smile, stuck out his tongue and ran away.

The figures of the two chasing circles in the empty palace.

Ji Gongyan turned her head to look at Li Hongxi with a smile, her steps were getting faster and faster, never thinking of bumping into someone suddenly.

"The big bald head is cheating! Mine says you can't use it..." Ji Gongzhen looked up at the person he hit, and said in a broken voice, "Grand... grand teacher?"

Xibo Jifu looked dignified, and said salutingly: "The palace is under curfew tonight, please return to the palace to go to bed, His Royal Highness!"

Ji Gongyan's eyes were lowered, his eyes flickered, and he lowered his head and begged: "Teacher, I heard that there is an immortal named Qing Li who will appear in Fulong Palace tonight. The student missed a meeting with the immortal last time because of memorization. This opportunity, I really can’t miss it again this time. The student promised the Grand Master, just take a look and go back to sleep obediently.”

Xibo Jifu stroked his beard, and said: "Now Fulong Hall has been sealed, no one can enter without the emperor's will. His Royal Highness should go back earlier, don't let the emperor worry."

Ji Gongyan pursed her lips and muttered in a low voice: "Sure enough, my father is oppressing me again... I am already 12 years old today, and I can't even make decisions about such trivial matters. What kind of emperor will I be in the future..."

At this time, Li Hongxi was clutching his buttocks, and slowly came over, his tone trembling: "Ji... Grand Master Jifu!"

"General Li, what's wrong with you?" Xibo Jifu hurriedly stepped forward to support Li Hongxi, and said in a low voice, "Didn't the old man tell you to take good care of the prince today? You are a famous general of your generation, why can't you even look at a child?" live?"

Li Hongxi looked bitter, and sighed: "The Grand Master doesn't know something. Today, His Highness the Crown Prince behaved very well all day, and even showed his hands in the kitchen at night. Who knows where he got laxatives and mixed them in secretly?" During the meal, I have pity on my stomach..."

Before Li Hongxi finished speaking, Xibo Jifu suddenly found that Ji Gongyan was gone, he couldn't help shaking his head and sighed: "Oh, His Royal Highness is good at everything, but he is too curious, I'm afraid there will be more troubles in the future."

Li Hongxi looked solemn, and said: "Grand Master, that Qingli acted strangely, confusing the king's heart. Now it's the night of the full moon, and the monster appears. I want to see what kind of monster he is."

Xibo Jifu looked at Li Hongxi who was clutching his buttocks and was in great pain, shook his head and said, "Looking at you, I'm afraid I can't count on you tonight. Fortunately, I invited two monks to help out, and they should be here soon .”

Before the voice fell, a woman's voice came from above her head:

"We're already there."

Xibo Jifu and Li Hongxi looked up together, and saw a man and a woman holding swords standing on the eaves.

The two silhouettes were dressed in ethereal clothes, holding a golden sword and a silver sword respectively.

"Jin Zhenyin is here with the two Taoist priests. I have lost my way, and I hope to forgive my sin." Xibo Jifu greeted him with cupped hands.

Jin Zhen asked: "The grand master is looking for our seniors, sisters and brothers, what orders do you have?"

Xibo Jifu said: "The old man wants to ask the two of you to help get rid of the demon."

Li Hongxi hurriedly said: "The top priority is to recover His Highness the Crown Prince! Now he is heading towards the Fulong Palace. It is not too late, please go quickly!"

"It's a trivial matter." Yin Lin said, and flew away.

Before Xibo Jifu could add an explanation, the two people on the roof had disappeared without a trace.

Jin Zhen ran from one roof to another, and said to Yin Lin who was beside him: "We are imposing monks of the immortal sect, and we came all the way to protect an ordinary person. That old guy actually used us as people."

Yin Lin sighed: "There is no way, Master Chanjiao ordered us to obey Grand Master Da Zhou's orders. There won't be any powerful monsters in this kind of place. Let's kill little monsters, just exercise our muscles and bones."

Jin Zhen said bitterly, "If that old guy hadn't told us to come back, we would have executed that traitor Mu Lingyu and that assassin together!"

"We have been guarding for so long, but Master Mu and the assassin never showed up. I think they may have been murdered by shopkeeper Xiao."

"...It deserves it." Jin Zhen bit her lip and said with a sneer, "Junior brother, this is called evil will be rewarded with evil."

At this time, Ji Gongyan had already arrived outside Fulong Hall, and never wanted to be stopped by a group of guards with knives.

The two guards put the steel knife in front of Ji Gongyan, and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, please don't make things difficult for the little one."

Ji Gongyan looked up at the two tall guards and asked with a raised voice, "Do you know what day it is today?"

The guard replied: "Your Highness, today is your 12th birthday."

Ji Gongzhen said in a threatening tone: "Have you ever thought about one thing. If you take me outside today, I will clearly remember that on my 12th birthday, two guards once blocked me. My way. When I inherit the throne in the future, every birthday, the first thing that comes to my mind will be the two of you. You once left me with a regret. At that time, in order to forget you and forget that regret, there is only one way. , you should know what I will do..."

The two guards showed embarrassment, and said hesitantly: "But... if His Royal Highness is let in... I'm afraid we won't live until tomorrow..."

Ji Gongzhen pursed her lips and said sharply: "Since you are ignorant, I have no choice but to tell my father that you are bullying me, so that you will not live until tomorrow!"

The two guards turned pale with fright, and they were sweating profusely.

Looking at the two guards who were in a dilemma, Ji Gongyan smiled slightly and said: "Actually, you don't have to worry. I will go in and take a look at the Qingli Immortal and come out immediately. No one will know. Even if someone knows, In the name of the crown prince, I can guarantee that no one will hurt you!"

The two guards looked at each other and slowly put down the knives in their hands.

Ji Gongyan was ecstatic, and ran straight to Fulong Palace.

Unexpectedly, just after running a few steps, Ji Gongyan was suddenly bounced off by an invisible barrier, and took three steps back.

Ji Gongyu couldn't wait to go in to see what happened, but he could only be blocked by the barrier, so angry that he stomped his feet repeatedly.

When he was at his wit's end, Ji Gongyan suddenly felt something push him against his feet!
Lying on the ground and looking carefully, he immediately widened his eyes, and saw a crack and bulge on the hard ground, as if an invisible snake was trying to get in from the ground, trying to invade Fulong through the barrier. temple……
