Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 183 Huge Blow

I don't know when it started, but it started to drizzle, and the rain slapped on the river surface, splashing small splashes, which looked very beautiful from a distance.

Suddenly, I saw a young woman wearing a bamboo hat standing on the bow of the boat, supporting the boat by herself, and slowly coming from a distance.

The redness of the morning glow reflected most of the sky red. Standing at the head of the bridge, she looked like a fairy in the river against the backdrop of the morning glow.

Today is her father's birthday, and she wants to collect the morning dew by herself to make a cup of fragrant green tea for her father, and also salvage a fresh carp to celebrate her father's birthday.

On the clear river surface, although there are dots of water bells, it does not affect the observation of underwater fish in the slightest.

The sky has gradually brightened, and most of the fish at the bottom have woken up and started swimming for a day.

Suddenly, a red-tailed carp swam past her boat. She quickly turned the bow of the boat and chased after the carp.

She quickly picked up the fishing net from the bow of the boat, saw the timing, and threw it into the river water. After tossing and pulling, the red-tailed carp fell steadily into her fishing net, fluttering and gliding. Liuliu's body.

The woman happily took out the red-tailed carp from the net and put it into the wooden barrel on the bow of the boat. She smiled and looked at the red-tailed carp in the wooden barrel and the dew just collected beside it , sailed west contentedly.

The rain stopped at some point, and the gray and white in the sky gradually faded, replaced by a clear blue sky.

Seeing that the weather was fine, the woman took off the bamboo hat she was wearing and the coir raincoat she was wearing, put down the oars, and put them in the cabin.

However, when she came out again, she saw an unknown object floating on the river not far to the west.

She had some doubts in her heart, could it be that other fishermen lost their fishing nets carelessly?Thinking of this, she quickly rowed forward.

"My God? How could it be a person?" She covered her mouth and exclaimed.

She didn't expect to take a closer look, and found that floating on the river was not a fishing net at all, but a real person, and it was a man.

His brows are still tightly frowned, should he still be alive?
Thinking of this, she boldly docked the boat beside the man, then picked up the wooden pole on the boat, leaned out, and reached out to the man in the water.

"It is said that people become lighter in water, but why do I feel so heavy?" She said while dragging him on the boat, finally, after a lot of effort , she dragged him onto the board.

Suddenly seeing a little blood oozing from the ship's board, she realized that the blood was oozing from the man's arm. She hurriedly stretched out her hand to the man's mouth and nose, and when she was sure that he was still alive, she hurriedly Tear off a broken piece from the hem of the jacket, wrap it around the bleeding place, then get up, pick up the oars, and sail west quickly. She must go back as soon as possible. She just discovered that although the man is still alive, But her breathing was very weak, if she didn't get treatment in time, she was afraid that her life would be in danger, so wouldn't it be a waste of all her efforts?Thinking of this, she unconsciously accelerated the speed of the boat.

The eastern suburbs of Kangzhou City.

Ling Lan poked her head out of the water, raised her hand to wipe off the water droplets on her face, then jumped out of the water, and landed steadily on the river bank. far away.

Both of them were drenched, and the water dripped down the corners of their clothes to the ground.The temperature in the morning was slightly lower, but the two of them didn't realize it. Ling Lan glared at Wuming angrily, and the anger bursting out of his eyes seemed to be able to burn Wuming up.

No wonder yesterday evening, he felt that the figure in front of him was somewhat familiar, but he didn't expect it to be him!If it were someone else, they might not know Wuming, but Ling Lan clearly remembered that when he was sent to the palace by Jiao Jingyao to train as a dark guard, it was him, Wuming who helped him many times, and he was able to get from there. Standing out from many hidden guards, he returned to Jiao Jingyao's side ahead of time, but now, it was him who knocked his master into the river.

Looking at the turbulent river, he couldn't control the anger in his heart anymore, he rushed towards Wuming with one stride, raised his fist, and hit Wuming hard on the cheek.

Wuming received this punch forcefully, he will not fight back, even though he bears the emperor's life, it is also because of him that Prince Yong's whereabouts are unknown until now, life and death are unpredictable.

Ling Lan was still puzzled, followed by another punch, two punches, several punches, Wuming's somewhat tired body couldn't bear it, he bent down and stood there panting heavily.

"Wu Ming, fight back, aren't you pretty good at fighting? Why didn't you fight back?" Ling Lan scolded angrily, "If it wasn't for you, how could the prince fall into the river and be washed away by the flood?" He waved again fist up.

"If you continue to fight, the prince can come back, then I would rather you fight!" Wuming said quietly.

Hearing this, Ling Lan really stopped what she was doing and looked at him bitterly.

"Ling Lan, I know you are upset, but I didn't intentionally throw the prince into the water. Right now, the most important thing is to go back and report to the emperor as soon as possible so that more people can be sent to look for the prince."

Ling Lan stopped, knowing that what he said had some truth. If relying on the strength of the two of them, it would be really difficult to find the prince. You must know that although this small river is not wide, it connects dozens of cities. Now that the night has passed, if there is no one nearby, then the prince should have been washed downstream of the current.Thinking of this, Ling Lan suddenly turned around and ran towards the city. He couldn't enter the palace to meet the emperor like Wuming, but he had to go back as soon as possible and inform Ling He so that he could send more people to find the prince.

Seeing Ling Lan leave without saying a word, Wuming spat out a mouthful of blood. In fact, he was also injured during the fight last night, and the injury was not serious. When he recalled the scene last night, he could clearly feel I realized that Prince Yong had tried his best and wanted to leave even at the cost of his life.And just now, coupled with Ling Lan's very powerful swing, he could no longer stand up, and fell to his knees on the ground with a common sound, but he couldn't fall down, he must adjust his breath as soon as possible, and then return to the palace.

Dijiao Kingdom Imperial Palace, inside the Hall of Great Harmony.

Jiao Jincheng sat on the dragon chair with a gloomy face. For some reason, since last night, he has been a little restless, always feeling as if something is about to happen, and when he was upset, the chief eunuch Han Ming walked in.

"Your Majesty, please see me outside the Wuming Hall." Eunuch Han said respectfully.

Hearing this, Jiao Jincheng couldn't help frowning, he sent Wuming to monitor Prince Yong, why did he come back so soon?

"Let him in!" Jiao Jincheng said coldly.

"Yes." Saying that, Eunuch Han withdrew.

After a while, Wuming walked into the main hall. Although he bumped all the way and the clothes on his body had dried out under the dual effects of internal force and wind, his haggard face could be seen clearly.

"I kowtow to the emperor!" Wuming knelt on the ground and saluted respectfully.

"Well, get up."

But Wuming was kneeling on the ground, without any intention of getting up, he pleaded guilty and said: "This subordinate deserves to die, please forgive me!"

Jiao Jincheng's eyes darkened, and he could tell from the moment Wuming entered the hall just now that he came back with injuries all over his body. He must have failed to stop Prince Yong from leaving, so Jiao Jincheng said in a cold voice: " Prince Yong left the city?"

Wuming kowtowed, and said: "This subordinate deserves to die. When this subordinate was fighting with Wang Ye, he accidentally drove Wang Ye into the river in the eastern suburbs. This subordinate searched all night, but still did not see Wang Ye."

Jiao Jincheng was shocked, he didn't expect such news, and it was undoubtedly a huge blow to him.

"Missing a trace? What a missing one!" Jiao Jincheng slammed the dragon chair, stood up, and looked coldly at Wuming who was kneeling on the ground. The veins on his forehead throbbed nonstop. For a moment, he They all wanted to draw their swords and stab him.

"This subordinate deserves to die, please punish the emperor!"

"A crime? That's for sure!" Jiao Jincheng said coldly, and then he shouted to the door: "Come on!"

When Eunuch Han heard the words, he immediately walked into the hall.

"Your Majesty!" he said respectfully.

"Tell Yang Xin, the Chief of the Imperial Guard, to meet you!"

"Yes." Eunuch Han was puzzled, and secretly glanced at Jiao Jincheng, only to realize that his face was gloomy and terrifying.It's strange, it was fine just now, why did the emperor's complexion become so ugly all of a sudden?
After a while, Yang Xin walked in.

"The humble minister Yang Xin kowtowed to the emperor, long live the emperor"

"Okay." Jiao Jincheng interrupted him, and said in a cold voice, with an impatient expression on his face.

Yang Xin was taken aback when he heard the words, then stood up respectfully, and stood aside, only to find that there was still a person kneeling on the ground, and it seemed that he had never seen him before.

"Yang Xin listens!" Jiao Jincheng said coldly.

"Wei Chen is here!"

"I order you to take 500 people to the eastern outskirts of the city immediately, follow the river, and find Prince Yong who fell into the water!"

Yang Xin was startled, his face immediately turned solemn, and he said seriously: "Yes, I obey."

"Your Majesty, this subordinate is familiar with the environment there. I am willing to look for the prince again, and I hope the Emperor will approve it!"

"Okay, I will allow you to go together, be sure to bring Prince Yong back safely! Otherwise, you will come and see me!"

"Yes, this subordinate (weichen) will definitely bring the prince back safely!" The two of them exited the hall while saying that.

Wu Mingben was injured, and he knelt on the hall for a long time just now, his face became paler and bloodless at this moment.

"Are you alright?" Yang Xin saw that his complexion was not good, as if he had suffered internal injuries.

"Thank you, Mr. Yang, I'm fine."

However, as soon as Wuming finished speaking, he spat out a big mouthful of blood.

Seeing this, Yang Xin immediately sealed several large acupuncture points around his body to prevent Qi and blood from flowing upstream and aggravate the injury.

"Thank you!" Wuming said with a pale face and a smile.

"You're welcome, your injury is so serious, I'm afraid it won't last long, why don't you go and treat it first."

Before Yang Xin finished speaking, Wuming interrupted him, saying: "It's okay, I can hold on, the most important thing is to find the prince now, let's go."

As soon as Wuming walked a few steps, he felt that his chest was burning violently, and his eyes were blurred. He hurriedly supported a big tree in front of him, and gasped.

Yang Xin could understand his mood at the moment, and couldn't help but said: "In my opinion, it's better that I take people to the eastern suburbs first, and you adjust your breath for a while, and go to the eastern suburbs for a round, how about it?"

Wuming heard the words, pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Then trouble Manager Yang!"

"You're welcome, goodbye!" Yang Xin smiled slightly, and then walked forward quickly.

Not long after Yang Xin walked out, Wuming spit out another mouthful of blood immediately after. He resisted the discomfort in his body and couldn't help raising his head, but the warm sunshine made his eyes even harder to open. , finally in the next second, he fainted under the big tree.

Suddenly, a black shadow quickly passed by the tree, picked up Wuming who had fainted on the ground, and disappeared in the imperial garden within a few ups and downs.

post house.
