Marriage Under the Heavens - Chapter 168

After that brief look, his figure disappeared into the night.

Qin Jiu understood that the siege of the Moon Tower had been resolved. But she also understood that Yan Su had left Mingyue Villa and personally directed the Jinwuwei outside, and the siege of Mingyue Villa was bound to be more intense.

The sound of fierce fighting below gradually stopped, and footsteps came to the top of the tower. Accompanied by the sound of footsteps, the copper bells on the corners of the tower were clanged by the night wind, seeming to be playing music for this coming person.

The door of the temple was quickly pushed open, and Yan Yu walked in quickly. He is dressed in an elegant and comfortable ice blue silk robe with a jade pendant around his waist. If he ignores the blood stains on the corners of his ice blue coat, he thinks it is a noble son who walks leisurely at night. It doesn’t look like he just experienced it. A fierce battle. Naturally, to Mingyue Villa is to enjoy the moon.

Seeing that it was him who came in, everyone seemed to breathe a sigh of relief. Emperor Qing personally stepped forward and helped Yan Yu, who was kneeling on the ground, up and asked: “Yu’er, get up quickly, have you ever been injured?”

Yan Yu smiled and said, “Thank you, Brother Huang, for thinking about it. The minister has never been injured.”

Emperor Qing’s frowning brows were slightly loosened, his eyes turned towards Yuan Ba ​​and Xiaoqi who followed up afterwards, and then he asked, “Where is that evil barrier?”

Yan Yu hurriedly said: “My minister is not talented, let him get away.”

Emperor Qing turned around and sat on the seat, sighing, “No matter, you can push him back, it’s pretty good.” He suddenly narrowed his eyes and said coldly, “Come here, go to Ningxin Courtyard and bring Concubine Xian.” “

Qin Jiu knew in his heart that he was afraid that Concubine Xian was not in Ningxin Hospital at all. She guessed that she was right. After a while, the palace man walked in quickly and knelt down to report: “Report to your Majesty that Empress Xian is not in Ningxinyuan. I heard that after the banquet was over, she left Mingyue Villa. Said to go to the temple of Cangwu Mountain to worship Buddha.”

Emperor Qing snorted coldly, his face like frost.

Concubine Hui whispered: “I’m afraid that no matter how many Buddha titles are recited, the sins of King Anling will not be eliminated.”

Qingdi’s face was uncertain, but he quickly replied to Qingming, realizing that the current situation is not optimistic, and asked: “Yuan Ba, did the soldier who was going to return to Beijing to adjust his cavalry to leave the villa?”

Yuan Ba ​​stepped forward and said: “Your Majesty, he has already escaped the siege under the cover of several valiant riders. However, it is not yet known that he will be able to reach the capital smoothly. In this case, your Majesty might as well mobilize nearby garrisons.”

Qin Jiu knew very well that Yun Ming, the leader of the nearest garrison Yuncheng army, was Yan Su’s subordinate, and he might have already voted for Yan Su. The garrison farther away was the Fengcheng Army led by Nie Ren. Emperor Qing had time to send someone to adjust the army at this time.

Emperor Qing nodded, and reached out to fish for the gold medal that he usually hung around his waist. His body shook, as if an invisible chill penetrated his body, instantly like falling into an ice cave.

Concubine Hui was at the side of Emperor Qing, and soon saw that his expression was different, and hurriedly asked: “Your Majesty, what’s the matter?”

Emperor Qing leaned on the chair, his body trembled slightly and his face was full of anger, “My gold medal has been stolen!”

Everyone in the tower is stunned.

The garrison is no better than the capital of Xiaoqi, if there is no gold medal for Emperor Qing, they would not dare to move troops easily. If by any chance there is an army move and nothing happens in the capital, they will be suspected of treason.

Qin Jiu’s brows condensed, and the one who stole the gold medal is undoubtedly Concubine Xian. She could have not come to Mingyue Villa tonight, but when she came, she hurried away. Qin Jiu originally didn’t understand why she came, so it seemed that it was for the gold medal.

Qin Jiu was so scared that she had been hiding in the dark, that was the most terrifying. Perhaps Concubine Xian did not expect that Yan Su would really force the palace. Knowing that she would be injured anyway after the accident, so Empress Xian finally couldn’t sit still and take action.

Qin Jiu squinted coldly, this is actually a good thing.

However, the situation today is a bit grim.

Qin Jiu didn’t want to mobilize the Suyi Bureau, at least until the Baijia case was heard, the Suyi Bureau could not be revealed for the time being. Therefore, Qin Jiu pinned his hopes on Yan Yu. She had gone from her initial contempt for him to her unpredictable jealousy.

She knew very well that Yan Yu should have more than one thousand soldiers in his hands. This time, if the power in his hands can be exposed, it will be one of her goals.

The night breeze in the mountains was extremely strong and wheezing, and a large piece of yellowed grass blades were rolled up by the long wind and fluttered down the hillside in a long whirl. Suddenly there was another gust of wind blowing diagonally, blowing them lightly into the night sky.

Concubine Xian stretched out a hand and pinched a swirling blade of grass in her hand. With a gentle twist of her fingers, the yellowed blade of grass squeezed out the green juice. She stood on the high **** and glanced at the hillside not far away. Mother Fang, who had been standing behind her, took a step forward and asked softly: “Manny, now, are you going back to the palace?”

Concubine Xian touched the cold lines on the gold medal hanging on her waist, and slowly said: “The Xiaoqi in Beijing has been controlled by us, and they will not come to help again. I have this gold medal in my hand. The Wind City Army and the others are afraid We can’t transfer it again. Now, we can use this gold medal to visit an old person in a place.”

Mother Fang asked puzzledly: “Who is the mother going to see?”

Concubine Xian glanced at her and said with a smile: “I don’t know what kind of heaven and earth is under the emperor’s mausoleum. Is it cold, not damp?”

Mother Fang understood it instantly, her face smiled like an orange peel, “It must be cold and damp! The people locked in must also be old and ugly!”

Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows and glanced at the situation on the mountain again with a blank face. Then she walked down the hillside with confidence and got on the sedan chair.

Emperor Qing had already left the Moon Tower under the protection of Xiaoqi and arrived at the Mingyue Hall where he used to live. Qing Emperor naturally had no intention to rest, so he summoned the ministers who had stayed in Mingyue Villa to Mingyue Hall to discuss countermeasures. In case everyone panic, the female family members also gathered in the Danxia Hall on the side of the Mingyue Hall. The two halls were separated by a palace gate, and hundreds of horsemen guarded the two halls outside. However, the female relatives are timid after all, and some people inevitably cry in low voices.

Zhaoping Princess Yan Shuixuan sat on the chair in front of the case, her expression extremely calm. The calmer she is, the more ominous Qin Jiu feels. She understands Zhaoping’s temperament. She and Yan Su have always been close to each other. At this moment, she looks like this, I am afraid it is extremely sad.

Guards continued to come in to report the situation of the battle outside. In Danxia Hall, the guards could clearly hear the report that Jinwuwei had already attacked the dense forest to the west.

Princess Zhaoping stood up suddenly and walked out quickly. Qin Jiu stepped forward to stop Zhaoping and asked in a low voice: “Princess, what are you going to do?”

Princess Zhaoping raised her head and glanced at Qin Jiu, and the corner of her lips made a cold chuckle, “It’s not your turn to take care of where the principal is going. Get out!”

Qin Jiu did not move.

The smile on Princess Zhaoping’s lips grew colder, “If it weren’t for you, Brother Erhuang wouldn’t be where you are today, and you should seldom pretend to be a good person here, when I don’t know who you are in the Tianchen Sect. ?”

Princess Zhaoping was staring at Qin Jiu with disgust at the moment.

Qin Jiu ignored Zhaoping’s words, his black eyes were deeply fixed on Zhaoping, and he persuaded: “I guess the princess is going to persuade Yan Su, I advise you not to die. There is no eye on the outside, I am afraid it will hurt the princess. The body of a daughter.” Her voice was low and calm, unable to hear the emotion.

Princess Zhaoping was so angry that her shoulders trembled by Qin Jiu’s words, and she smiled: “This princess is going to die, and it won’t take you to take care of it. If you don’t get out of the way, don’t blame this princess for being impolite!” Princess Zhaoping said. , Had pulled out a sword from the guard outside, pointed at Qin Jiu and said.

Qin Jiu knew in his heart that Zhaoping hated him so much now that he was afraid that if he stopped her, the sword would stab him unceremoniously.

Shang Chuchu and Shang Sisi were originally in Danxia Hall. Seeing this situation, Shang Chuchu hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Princess Zhaoping’s sleeve and said, “Sister Xuan, Sister Qin is also kind, and she is also for your good It is indeed dangerous to go out, we don’t want you to have trouble, so let’s wait a moment in the hall!”

Qin Jiu saw Shang Chuchu holding Zhaoping, and then returned to the hall, his eyes slowly passing over Huifei’s face.

Sitting on the chaise couch, Concubine Hui seemed to be closing her eyes and resting, and she didn’t mean to come over to persuade Princess Zhaoping. Qin Jiu felt a little uneasy. What she is worried about now is not the situation of the battle outside, but the people of the Tianchen Sect in the temple. Just now, at the feast, Concubine Hui’s provocation against Concubine Xian had already made her alert. However, there are not many people in Tianchenzong here, presumably they can’t make a big wave, and durian is in the next room, and his attendants are masters in the plain clothes bureau arranged by himself.

Princess Zhaoping refused to listen to Shang Chuchu’s persuasion and insisted on going out to meet Yan Su, but after she left the hall, she was stopped by Xiaoqi outside. She sat in the chair with a sad face, motionless.

A palace man walked in from the Mingyue Hall next door, and whispered: “Your Majesty ordered Xiao Dasile to play a calming tune, please stay calm.”

After a while, the sound of the mellow piano sounded.

The whispering sound of the female family members in the hall was suppressed by the sound of the piano, and gradually became silent, only the sound of the piano was long.

Qin Jiu did not hear the sound of the piano, her thoughts had already flown outside.

I don’t know, can Yan Yu’s soldiers be able to withstand Yan Su’s Jin Wuwei? I don’t know, will Yan Yu be injured? I don’t know, if Yan Su loses, will Emperor Qing save his life?

Her thoughts were chaotic, and while she was worried, her eyes flashed from the faces of everyone in the hall, and her heart suddenly shuddered.

Princess Zhaoping was sitting on the chair with an extremely painful expression on her face, not only for her, but also for the others in the hall. Except for Concubine Hui and the maid behind her.

As soon as Qin Jiu’s thoughts replied, the surging sound of the piano came into her ears, and she only discovered that this was some kind of calming and calming music, it was clearly a charm and magic sound.
