The black-bellied highness, the evil concubine

Chapter 143 The New Crown Prince

As soon as Murong Yi and Wen Ran arrived outside the palace gate, they met Zhuge Jingren and the others who had just escaped. Zhuge Jingren's martial arts were average, and he had suffered a lot of injuries in order to protect Concubine De and Zhuge Yuan along the way. , fortunately, none of them hurt the vitals.

"King Xuan, are you alright?" Murong Yi asked eagerly when he saw them.

"It's okay!" Zhuge Jingren replied.

Zhuge Yuan, who was wearing an ordinary guard outfit, also grabbed Murong Yi and said, "Yi'er, it's great that you're back!"

Seeing Zhuge Yuan's appearance, everyone was not too surprised, they were all relieved, as long as the emperor is fine.

"Where's His Royal Highness the Prince?" Wen Ran's heart was only on Zhuge Jingyao, and she couldn't settle down without seeing Zhuge Jingyao.

It should have been a strange thing that the blue guard didn't stay by the prince's side, but at this time, no one cared about it.

Zhuge Jingren said: "Brother Huang is still in the palace!"

Hearing this, Wen Ran rushed in without looking back.

Murong Yi wanted to call to stop her, but it was too late, and knowing that he couldn't stop her, Jian Qing followed Wen Ran closely.

"What's going on?" Murong Yi couldn't just run after Wen Ran so unscrupulously, he didn't understand the matter, so he should know how to deal with it next.

Zhuge Yuan glared angrily, "That rebellious son Zhuge Jingyu has rebelled!"

The second prince rebelled!
It's not that Murong Yi and Zhuge Jingyao didn't think about today's situation, but they didn't think that it was at such a time that they didn't care about it, how could he plan such a conspiracy in such a short time?

Right now, it's useless to think too much.

"Your Majesty, we should quickly notify the soldiers in the city, and then return to the palace to eliminate the rebels!" Murong Yi said sternly.

Zhuge Yuan nodded naturally.

As Zhuge Jingyao said before, Zhuge Jingyu's troops deployed outside the palace were not strong. Under the leadership of Murong Yi and a group of Murong family veterans, those rebellious parties were soon suppressed.

The Imperial Forest Army outside the western suburbs, as well as the Marquis of Jingguo and others rushed to the palace after hearing the news. Under Zhuge Yuan's orders, they all rushed into the palace.

Wen Ran and Jian Qing desperately searched for Zhuge Jingyao in the palace. Their bodies were stained with blood, but it was the blood of other people. She was not soft on her hands, she just wanted to get to Zhuge Jingyao's side as soon as possible.

She was wrong, she should not be willful, should not fulfill her responsibilities, should not choose to escape...

Had she known such a thing would happen, she would never have left that day.

Zhuge Jingyao, you must not have any accidents.

Wen Ran was full of worry, and Leng Jian went berserk. The Ningxue sword technique coupled with the Hanyue Sword was even more powerful, and it was no problem to fight one against a hundred.

"Nineteen, the sword marks are there!" The two finally arrived near Zhaohua Gate, Jian Qing saw the blood-stained sword marks lying on the ground, and hurriedly shouted at Wen Ran,

Wen Ran killed a few guys who were in the way, and then rushed to Jianhen's side.

The sword on Jian Hen's chest was extremely fast and accurate, and his swordsmanship might not be inferior to Wen Ran's. Wen Ran knew it, and even if he had life-saving medicine this time, he couldn't save Jian Hen.

Seeing Wen Ran frowning and shaking his head, Jian Qing was also shocked.

The few of them have been together for many years, and they have always been as close as brothers and sisters. They also thought about the day when they would lose each other, but they didn't expect this day to come so suddenly.

Although Jianhen has a quick temper, he is straightforward and loyal. He takes good care of them and the younger ones. How could he go like this?
His martial arts was considered the best among several people, but he was killed by only one sword.

Who on earth has such a skill?
Both Wen Ran and Jian Qing knew that it could never be Zhuge Jingyu and the others, he was not that capable yet.

After fighting all the way, they also knew that it was because the King of Qin had rebelled, so the palace became a mess.

Looking at the direction Jianhen's finger was pointing at last, Wen Ran had no time to wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes, so she gripped the sword tightly and ran away quickly. Although Jian Qing was sad, she still followed.

Something happened to Jianhen, His Highness can't do it again.

There is no sign of His Highness here, which means that there is still hope.

And the direction pointed by the sword mark is the Weiyang Palace leading to the Empress Dowager.

Weiyang Palace was also in chaos at this time, Zhuge Jingyu believed that Zhuge Jingyao was hiding in this Weiyang Palace, he was so jealous, he didn't think about the relationship between grandparents and grandchildren.

"Shadow, I want Zhuge Jingyao's life!" Zhuge Jingyu ordered to the shadow who appeared under the sunlight for the first time.

The shadow was dressed in black, with a mask on his face, so he couldn't see his face at all, but the insidious and terrifying feeling of fear around him made people feel intimidated.

Originally, Zhuge Jingyao and his party could hold out against Zhuge Jingyu's men, but when the shadow suddenly appeared, the situation changed completely.

That person's martial arts were terrifying.

"Zhuge Jingyu, you are treason!" The Queen Mother shouted sharply.

Zhuge Jingyu said without fear: "Emperor Grandmother, you should obediently hand over Zhuge Jingyao. For the sake of grandparents, I will still spare your life!"

The Empress Dowager coughed violently, but said fearlessly, "The Emperor will definitely come to save Ai's family!"

"Since Grandmother is so stubborn, don't blame grandson for being cruel, give it all to me!" Zhuge Jingyu said sternly.

There are quite a few guards in the Empress Dowager's palace, but compared to Zhuge Jingyu's people, they cannot gain the upper hand.

And the shadow's kung fu is unrivaled. In the huge Weiyang Palace, only the woman with the red sleeve can fight with him.

Wei Lan showed such a fierce look for the first time. It was completely different from the past. Her pretty face was full of heroine, and she had the attitude of a woman who would not give way to her husband.

The red sleeve fluttered like a snake, flinging towards the shadow without warning.

This is not a small fight, Wei Lan has used real kung fu, not only to protect the Queen Mother, but also not to embarrass her master!

The disciples of Yuzhu Mountain are not so easy to deal with.

With Wei Lan restraining him, Shadow couldn't move forward for a while.

But this was only temporary, as the sword qi fluttered, the red sleeve was instantly torn apart.

Wei Lan was injured by his sword energy, so she couldn't help but take a few steps back, with blood overflowing from her mouth, this person is really not easy to deal with.

Seeing that Wei Lan was injured, the Queen Mother also went over immediately, very worried.

Wei Lan shielded the Queen Mother, her eyes were full of unyielding.

"Get out of the way!" Shadow's cold voice sounded, making one tremble all over.

Wei Lan shook her head and said, "If you want to go in, you have to kill me first!"

Shadow gave a bloodthirsty smile, "You asked for that, you can't blame me!"

The figure flickered, seeing that the sword was about to go towards Wei Lan. The sword energy was so strong that all the guards who resisted in front couldn't stop it even half a step.

Ningxue danced, Hanyue unsheathed, and the shadow's footsteps finally stopped.

No one could see his steps clearly, but he still couldn't escape Wen Ran's eyes.

Wen Ran's sword energy at this time is more lethal than Shadow's.

"Lan Nineteen!" Zhuge Jingyu looked at Wen Ran coldly, and said bitterly.

"Your master is dying, it's too late for you to show up now!" Shadow taunted without fear, holding his sword.

Wen Ran's expression remained unchanged, "If something happens to him, you will all have to pay for him!"

The snowflakes in the air are falling even bigger, Wen Ran's eyes are as cold as the moon, and the cold moon sword emits a bloodthirsty gleam. Suddenly, she flies up, and the snowflakes also condense and fly up with her movements. As soon as the move was made, the snowflakes condensed into swords, and all of them went towards the shadow.

Everyone was amazed by such a weird but beautiful kung fu.

Wei Lan was stunned. Few people in this world can master the sword technique of Flying Snow.

At that time, Wen Ran no longer cared about Wei Lan knowing her identity, she just wanted to make a quick decision and see Zhuge Jingyao as soon as possible.

Shadow knew that Wen Ran's martial arts were extremely high, but he didn't expect that he had reached this level of perfection. He thought he could deal with her, but found that he was no match for her at all.

Zhuge Jingyu was still not afraid of death and said to the crowd: "Kill him!"

Wen Ran clung to the shadow tightly, Jian Qing, Wei Lan, and a group of guards fought against those plotters, neither of them had the chance to enter the hall to look for Zhuge Jingyao.

"Zhuge Jingyao's fate is decided, no one can stop me today!" Shadow said coldly between Wen Ran's confrontation.

Wen Ran was even more determined: "With me here, you are dreaming!"

Taking advantage of the chaos, Zhuge Jingyu actually hijacked the Queen Mother, "You all stop, or don't blame me for being rude!"

Wei Lan and the others stopped in an instant. After all, the person he was holding hostage was the Empress Dowager, and Jian Qing also had to stop. As for Ying Ying and Wen Ran, there seemed to be no tendency to stop.

Zhuge Jingyu shouted again: "Lan Nineteen!"

Wen Ran sneered and said, "There is no Lan Nineteen in this world!"

Zhuge Jingyao was not here, so Lan Nineteen was not.

"Then who are you?" Shadow asked coldly.

Wei Lan said, "You don't need to know who she is, you just need to know, you are no match for her at all!"

"Don't talk nonsense with her, kill them all!" Zhuge Jingyu had run out of patience, Zhuge Yuan escaped, and Zhuge Jingyao was still inside, what he wanted was a quick battle.

With the Empress Dowager present, Wei Lan and the others could not do anything at all, and could only be killed by others.

A fiery red figure passed by, but rescued the Queen Mother from Zhuge Jingyu's hands as quickly as possible.

Yin Hongxue smiled with red lips, and said seductively, "Prince Qin, you are really shameless!"

"Who are you?" Zhuge Jingyu said angrily.

"Zhuge Jingyu, you lost!" When Murong Yi's figure appeared, the overall situation was settled.

Unexpectedly, the person who shouldn't appear here actually appeared, Zhuge Jingyu could only hide behind the shadow, and said to him: "Help me, save me!"

Shadow smiled and said, "Of course I will save you!"

After speaking, with a wave of his fingertips, a thick smoke rose, and in an instant, he and Zhuge Jingyu disappeared without a trace.

Murong Yi ordered Jian Wudao: "Send someone to chase after him!"

"Are you okay?" Murong Yi asked Wen Ran's side at the first moment, and asked her.

Wen Ran replied that nothing happened, and immediately rushed into the hall.

Inside the main hall, the two guards who came in to protect Zhuge Jingyao completely passed out at this moment. The huge place was empty, and there was no sign of Zhuge Jingyao.

"Where's your Highness?" Wen Ran asked eagerly.

Wei Lan said in disbelief: "How is it possible, I closed the door with my own hands, and the prince's brother is inside!"

Everyone searched inside and out, but to no avail.

"Zhuge Jingyao, Zhuge Jingyao, come out!" Wen Ran no longer cared about anything else, shouting everywhere, just begging that the person she was worried about could appear in front of her quickly.

"Calm down, it might be somewhere else in the palace, I'll look for it!" Murong Yi hurriedly comforted him.

Wen Ran shook her head and said, "I'll go by myself!"

After the crisis was resolved, Zhuge Yuan arrested all of Zhuge Jingyu's subordinates, and he would never be relentless when dealing with these traitors.

Concubine Li and Qi's family are completely unable to turn over this time, and the Manchu family will be wiped out, which is a foregone conclusion.

Zhuge Jingyan turned his back on the battlefield, and he couldn't bear it either, and was sent to border, but it was even worse than Zhuge Jingli's end.

Seeing, everything has returned to calm.

However, the figure of His Highness the Crown Prince has not been found for a long time.

Zhuge Jingyao seemed to have disappeared from the world. The entire imperial city had been turned upside down, but there was still no trace of him.

Wen Ran hasn't had a drop of water in the past few days, let alone other food. She has been looking for Zhuge Jingyao all day and all night, and she is about to demolish this city.

Murong Yi, Jian Qing and others accompanied her to search, as did Wei Lan and Wei Qing.

After being disturbed by the King of Qin, both Zhuge Yuan and the Queen Mother fell seriously ill. With the Prince's absence, all the important affairs of the government and the public were placed on Zhuge Jingren's shoulders. It is also suffering from not having the technique of avatar.

"Don't look for it!"

When Zhuge Yuan said these three words, not only Zhuge Jingren was surprised, but the queen was also very surprised.

According to the emperor's temperament, if the prince is gone, even if he is sick, he will definitely turn the world upside down and want to find the prince, but this time, he gave up so easily!
Zhuge Yuan immediately said again: "Ren'er, from now on, the Great Yang Kingdom will depend entirely on you!"

Zhuge Jingren was a little stunned, but the queen kept giving him winks, and after reacting for a while, he knelt down and said: "My son will never disappoint my father's expectations!"

In Dayang Kingdom, the position of prince after so many years has finally changed hands.

It's just that everyone didn't expect that in the end, the person who would sit in that seat would be His Royal Highness Xuan Wang who was the most uncontested.

The court claimed that King Qin conspired to cause chaos and killed His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!
And everyone in Wen Ran knew very well that Zhuge Jingyao just disappeared, whether he was alive or dead, he didn't know at all, why did the emperor make such a decision?
Even so, Wen Ran and the others did not give up their search.

Until No.11, Wen Ran, who hadn't eaten or drank much water in recent days, completely passed out.

Murong Yi brought her back to Murong Mansion, and Wei Lan also followed her back.

"You've been following her these days, and you actually want to ask her something, right?" After making arrangements for Wen Ran, Murong Yi had time to chat with Wei Lan.

Wei Lan nodded and said, "Brother Murong, do you know her identity?"

Murong Yi smiled wryly: "Her identity is what you think, and it's not what you think!"

"What do you mean by that?" Wei Lan was a little confused.

"When she figures it out, she will tell you. All I can say now is that it was not her intention to hide it from you. Please don't blame her!" Murong Yi knew that Wei Lan was also very important to Wen Ran, If even Wei Lan misunderstood her now, he was really worried about what Wen Ran would look like when he woke up.

Although Wei Lan didn't know what happened, but based on her understanding of her junior sister, she would never lie to her senior sister unless she had to.

Seeing how haggard she looks because of the prince's brother these days, she is also thinking, when she was going to call off her marriage with Yu Hansheng, it must be because of the prince's brother, right?

"Brother Murong, you seem to know her better than I do." Wei Lan said puzzled.

Murong Yi has just returned, not to mention that he is very alienated from their old friends, let alone from other people, but he feels very different towards her junior sister.

Murong Yi said lightly: "In this world, no one will understand her!"

As a brother, I still have this confidence.

"Lan'er, she's the person we've been looking for!" Murong Yi's gaze turned to Wen Ran, and then he seemed to use the softest voice, and said this sentence in front of Wei Lan.

Wei Lan was at a loss for these words, and after Murong Yi left, when only she and Wen Ran were left in the room, she suddenly understood what he said just now.

"He said 'we' just now, there is only one person we are looking for all these years!"

The answer is very clear!

Wei Lan looked at Wen Ran who was asleep, her tears couldn't help but she covered her mouth with her hands, not daring to wake up the person who had finally calmed down.

No wonder Wei Lan felt very friendly the first time she saw her in Yuzhu Mountain; no wonder Wei Lan always felt familiar with her various habits; The one who made her laugh...

It turned out that their friendship was longer than those seven or eight years.

But, why, would she not recognize her at all?
Why did Murong Qixue become Wen Ran?

……

If it wasn't Murong Yi who spoke just now, Wei Lan still couldn't believe it.

When Wen Ran was sleeping, Murong Yi was also called into the palace.

"Yi'er, what are your plans next?" Zhuge Yuan didn't ask about Zhuge Jingyao's whereabouts, but was more concerned about Murong Yi's whereabouts.

Murong Yi replied: "I will go wherever my sister goes!"

Remembering that Murong Yi should have gone out of the city to find Murong Qixue, why did he come back suddenly?
"Has Qi Xue returned, where is she now?" Zhuge Yuan also asked a little excitedly.

Murong Yi shook his head and said: "Prince, no, wherever Jingyao is, she will be there!"

Zhuge Yuan's eyes moved, and his gaze became slightly colder, "Old Wu, I probably won't be able to find it back, so you don't need to waste any more time and effort!"

These words came from the mouth of the father who loved Zhuge Jingyao the most, Murong Yi really wished he could not understand.

"Didn't Qi Xue lose her memory?" Zhuge Yuan asked back.

Now that she lost her memory, she shouldn't remember Zhuge Jingyao, so what does Zhuge Jingyao's disappearance have to do with her?

Murong Yi couldn't understand more and more. Looking at the emperor's reaction now, he seemed to care that Murong Qixue far surpassed Zhuge Jingyao. He replied softly: "Sister, I only know one person in this life, even if I lose my memory, it's the same!"

"Murong Yi is grateful to His Majesty Hao Dang, please His Majesty, for the sake of the Murong family's achievements in the past, let me and my sister live the life we ​​want!" His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, he also knelt down violently and begged the emperor.

It doesn't matter to him to stay, but he will never allow someone to trap his sister's freedom.

Her younger sister can marry whoever she wants. No one in this world can interfere, not even the emperor's younger brother.

Just as Murong Yi thought, if it wasn't for his kneeling, Zhuge Yuan really had such a plan. He had promised Murong Lian that Murong Qixue would be the crown prince. No matter who the crown prince became, Murong Qixue would still be The candidate for the princess in his heart.

After this kneeling, Zhuge Yuan also thought about it calmly. Now that King Xuan has a main concubine and a side concubine, it is no longer in line with the Murong family's ancestral precepts. It is reasonable for Murong Qixue not to want to marry.

King Xuan's other side concubine, the Han family, had already been expelled from Prince Xuan's mansion when Empress Han was deposed and something happened to the Han family.

The entire Han family, except for Han Ruoshui, who married into Jianghu, the rest were all implicated.

Zhuge Yuan didn't speak for a long time, and after a long time, he sighed softly, made Murong Yi stand up, and said hello after a while.

Murong Yi promised to persuade Lin Yidao and several Murong family generals to stay in the court and continue to serve the court.

After doing this, Zhuge Yuan felt more at ease.

"I want to meet Qi Xue!" Zhuge Yuan finally said.

Murong Yi hesitated and said: "I will have a good talk with her!"

After Murong Yi returned to Murong Mansion, Wen Ran just woke up.

As soon as she woke up, she wanted to look for him again, but was stopped by Wei Lan, "If he is in Xianling City, we have searched so many times, how could we not find him, he is not in Xianling City anymore! "

"Then I'll look elsewhere!" Wen Ran said firmly.

Wei Lan held her back, "Xiao Jiu, when did you become so restless?"

Is this still her little junior sister?
Wen Ran's footsteps stopped for a moment, she turned to look at Wei Lan, shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, Senior Sister, I'm sorry..."

"Since you know I'm sorry, then listen to me carefully!" Wei Lan hugged Wen Ran, and said softly, "Don't worry, the senior sister will help you find it together, we will definitely find the prince's brother!"

Wen Shaoshang was gone, Zhuge Jingyao was gone, and besides Yuzhu Mountain, the two most important people to her suddenly disappeared out of thin air, which dealt a great blow to Wen Ran.

She still has no memory of Murong Yi, her elder brother. Now, the only person who can calm her down and comfort her most is Wei Lan, her senior sister.

When Murong Yi came back and saw this scene, he also felt that it was a correct decision to keep Wei Lan here.

Zhuge Jingyao, where are you? We managed to find her back. How could you disappear like this?
