My Love Comes to See the Grass on my Grave - Chapter 42
Ruan Nian’s heart was pounding, and he swallowed the name he couldn’t say, “You…you…”
“Don’t move,” Qu Fengyun said in a hoarse voice, “Wait a little longer.”
Ruan Nian didn’t dare to breathe anymore, and froze there motionless.
The cool wind swept the branches and leaves, making a rustling sound, and the sky was high and the clouds were wide outside the trees. After an unknown amount of time, Qu Fengyun finally straightened up, turned his back to Ruan Nian and said, “Get dressed.”
As soon as he backed away, the wind rushed in, Ruan Nian shivered, and hurriedly covered his clothes.
“That…” Ruan Nian said hesitantly, “You… are you okay?”
Qu Fengyun didn’t speak, and after a while he said, “Find a place to hide.”
“Ah?” Ruan Nian asked, “What about you?”
Qu Fengyun: “I have other things.”
“Then I’ll go with you,” Ruan Nian whispered, “I’m afraid alone.”
Qu Fengyun turned around and said, “Are you afraid that you will enter the palace alone?”
“I didn’t know that Zheng Yufei would rebel,” Ruan Nian regretted, “I thought I could leave after taking the medicine.”
At this time, Xu Zhiyan’s voice suddenly came from not far away.
No, Qu Fengyun thought, Xu Zhiyan was discovered.
Xu Zhiyan had been hiding well in the rockery, but suddenly his nose was itchy, one couldn’t hold back, sneezed, and was caught by the passing guards.
“Let go of the old man!” He was dragged out by the Imperial Army, and he scolded while struggling, “You guys are so bold! Rebellion is a capital crime! You will punish the Nine Clan!”
No one paid any attention to him, and the guards just dragged him away. As he was walking, he heard wind noise behind him, and before the person dragging Xu Zhiyan turned around, he was kicked over. Qu Fengyun dragged Xu Zhiyan and threw it to Ruan Nian, “Take him away first.”
“Oh…” Ruan Nian hurriedly helped Xu Zhiyan up. Qu Fengyun blocked the chasing Imperial Army, but there were a lot of them. Ruan Nian and Xu Zhiyan ran slowly again, and were caught up in a short while. Qu Fengyun hurriedly ran over, but the Imperial Army was also the most prominent guard in the palace, so it was a little difficult for him to protect two people by himself.
Ruan Nian watched people fall one by one, and rushed over to look at Qu Fengyun’s arm. Just now, he was almost hit by a rock on the edge of the rockery, but Qu Fengyun raised his arm and blocked it for him.
Qu Fengyun was sweating profusely, and there were many stab wounds on his body. Fortunately, they were not deep, but his right arm remained motionless.
“Ah,” Ruan Nian touched his arm and said with a worried look, “Are you alright?”
Qu Fengyun looked at his right arm and said, “Maybe it’s broken…” Before he could finish speaking, he snorted in pain.
Ruan Nian let go and said embarrassedly, “I…I’m nervous…”
Qu Fengyun: “…” Why are you pinching me nervously?
Zheng Yufei was standing in the Golden Palace, a little uneasy. He originally wanted to kill the old emperor and push the prince who had been cultivating immortality in the East Palace all day long on the dragon chair to become a puppet emperor. But now, the old emperor has not been found, and the prince is gone.
Something’s wrong, he thought, but what’s wrong? The people who lost Lanshan have been transferred to guard outside the palace, and the palace is guarded by the forbidden army. How can there be any troops in Beijing that can compete with him?
“Commander Zheng!” Someone hurried in outside the hall and said in a panic, “Zhen… Zhenbei Army is here!”
Zheng Yufei didn’t believe it, “Impossible! Zhenbei Army is far in the north, how could it be possible…”
“Really, it’s almost at the gate of the city!”
Zheng Yufei’s hands burst with blue veins, and his forehead jumped suddenly. He didn’t understand why the Zhenbei Army in the far north suddenly rushed to the capital? The old emperor is surrounded by his eyeliner, and it is absolutely impossible to transmit a message to the north without a sound.
“Close the city gate,” Zheng Yufei gritted his teeth, “I also have soldiers, how easy is it to attack the city and break the gate!”
“Come, it’s too late,” the man said, “The city gate…I was taken by the prince…”
Prince? !
Zheng Yufei finally understood that the fish that slipped through the net was the prince, the prince who had been hiding in the East Palace for many years and seemed to be ignorant of political affairs and devoted himself to cultivating immortals!
Murong Yan stood on the tower, watching the army of Zhenbei rush to the palace city, turned to Gu Lang beside him and said, “General Zhenbei Wei Yong and your father are old friends, after this matter, you would like to see him one side?”
Gu Lang’s eyes were numb from the wind, and after a while, he said, “No need, I should have died eleven years ago, so why bother people’s peace again.”
Murong Yan pulled the hand he was clasping beside him and said, “Back then, General Wei was far away in the north and didn’t know the truth, but he never doubted your father. What happened back then was also a wound to his heart. These eleven years have passed. , he never put it down. If he knew you were still alive, he would be very happy.”
Gu Lang looked at the figure riding the horse under the city, his fingers loosened and tightened. He had met Wei Yong when he was a child. This man always went to his house to find his father for a drink. This person also likes to tease him, saying that children of his age should go out to play, forcibly dragging him to climb trees, catch fish, dig bird nests, and get dirty all over…
Seeing that he was trapped in his memories again, Murong Yan’s knuckles turned white, so he could only rub his hand and said, “Go and see him, you have elders, so I can hire you, right?”
Gu Lang: “…”
