"Huh? Isn't this the eldest son of the Yuan family? He studied in Xuanfeng Hall for three years, and when he came back, he still condescended to stay by his side. Is his love as deep as the sea?" Xiao Miaoxin knelt down and sat on the bank of Yuanyu River. Ahead, he turned his body and mocked.
Yuan Yuchuan pursed his lips, with a smile on his face and eyes, but his hand on the table quietly tightened.
Xiao Yuehuai didn't hear this gossip, her thoughts were all on Su Ying.
She tilted her head and stared at his lips. The more she looked at it, the more strange she felt. She took advantage of the maid's break to change the bowl and bring food to him, and moved closer. She lightly wiped his lips with her fingertips, then put it down and took a closer look. , asked curiously in his ear: "General, is he wearing lipstick?"
Su Ying was slow to react. When he turned his face to the side, he almost bumped into the princess's nose. His pupils suddenly dilated, and the girl's figure was reflected in the bright light. The hand holding the cup rested on his knees and shook twice, then poured out the wine. Sprinkled all over the floor.
Liu Jiaohua is charming, and her breath is like orchid, which suddenly captures the heart and soul of Lang Jun.
Su Ying's throat felt itchy and he couldn't hide the panic in his eyes. He immediately lowered his head and said "hmm" seriously.
Xiao Yuehuai was stunned for a moment. She glanced around and found that her posture at this moment was very inappropriate, so she immediately jumped back. Shengxue's jade-white face was dyed red...
She absentmindedly played with the jade at her waist. When she was distracted, a pair of jade-white hands stretched out to her desk. Xiao Yuehui came back to her senses and saw Yuanyuchuan bringing a plate of fish meat to her and saying softly to her: "This is the way to go." Snow mountain dragons and phoenixes are your favorite food, I have already picked out the fish bones, why don't you just eat some to fill your stomach?"
Xiao Yuehuai stared at the snow-white fish meat on the plate, remembering the miserable past, and shuddered unknowingly, then pushed it further away and said politely: "Thank you, brother Tingwu!"
Yuan Yuchuan noticed her little movement, the light in his eyes fell, and he could barely maintain the smile on his lips.
This scene fell into Su Ying's eyes and aroused his suspicion: How could the princess suddenly dislike the dragon and phoenix in the snow mountain?
Xiao Yuehuai had no idea what the gentlemen were thinking. She braced herself and became vigilant, began to pay attention to the movements in the hall, and looked at the slaves on duty outside the hall from time to time.
Gongs and cups are intertwined, bamboos and silk are in a hurry.
When everyone was enjoying themselves, the maids who were accompanying various aristocratic families in the palace suddenly drew their swords and hijacked the people at the seats. Immediately afterwards, a force in black came out from all directions.
The imperial army also flew into the palace at this moment and made a timely defense. It's just that the assassins have hostages in hand, so they don't dare to fight easily and can only fight against them.
The two sides are at war with each other, and the situation is extremely tense.
Su Ying immediately stood in front of the princess without saying a word.
Yuan Yuchuan was a step late and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xiao Yuehui was already being protected behind him.
Emperor Zhou originally thought that perhaps a junior member of the family had a grudge and was taking advantage of the feasting scene with evil intentions. However, he did not expect that the hall was surrounded by assassins, and even the servants had been arranged in advance. The killer immediately felt something was wrong.
He noticed that these assassins were all wearing Qingyue short blades at their waists, which came from the world's best sword-making villa - Forge Yutang.
Since the destruction of the country by Yeping, Xuan Yutang has covered up its traces and disappeared into the world. It has disappeared for several years, but now it suddenly appears here... The answer is self-evident.
Emperor Zhou narrowed his eyes and glanced at Concubine Xiang beside him, his eyes becoming colder.
Xiao Yuehuai straightened her body and stood behind Su Ying, holding her breath and waiting for the opportunity.
The assassins and the Forbidden Army faced each other, and no one dared to take action easily. The hostage on the table with a knife pressed against his throat shivered and followed the killers disguised as maidservants as they slowly retreated towards the entrance of the palace.
Xiao Yuehuai took advantage of this moment and quietly moved to the jade steps.
The moment the killers dragged the hostages out of the Zixiang Palace, she stepped up quickly, grabbed Emperor Zhou and Queen Zhou's sleeves, and shouted: "Everyone, get down quickly! They have archers!"
Thousands of arrows were fired from the outer court in the electric light and flint, shooting through every door and window. In just a moment, Zitang Palace leaked into a sieve.
Everyone panicked and fled in all directions. Screams and cries came and went.
The Imperial Guards were caught off guard and quickly resisted with their shields.
Xiao Yuehuai tried her best to protect her parents behind her. Even though she was terrified, she still hugged Emperor Zhou and Empress Zhou tightly.
The whistle of arrows gradually calmed down, and she cautiously moved away and looked forward, and unexpectedly found Su Ying kneeling on one knee, pressing a short gun against the jade steps, blocking all the arrows that were shot towards them.
Su Ying's back was already wet, but the blood was covered by the dark robe.
Xiao Yuehuai's heart was immediately shaken, and thousands of emotions surged up.
Before everyone could recover from the shock, a loud roar came from outside the palace: "Xiao Mu! Dog Emperor! Listen to me! Come out alone! Just a moment later! I will kill a member of the family!" Let’s kill all these people! Let’s see how you can become the Lord of the Great Zhou!”
The implication is that if Emperor Zhou refused to go out, it would be equivalent to giving up the lives of all the aristocratic families at the Qushan Banquet. Even if the disaster is suppressed and his life is saved by then, Emperor Zhou will lose the confidence and support of all the powerful families, and it will even chill the people of Zhou Dynasty.
Xiao Yuehuai immediately turned to look at her father.
Emperor Zhou returned the smile, reached out and rubbed her bun, and whispered softly: "Little Ahuai, take good care of your mother here."
After saying that, he stood up, brushed off the wrinkles on his robe and long sleeves, and still maintained his imperial demeanor, slowly walked down the jade steps and walked towards the front of the palace.
Seeing this situation, a group of old ministers shouted: "Your Majesty! You must not go out!"
The princes and princesses at the table were also frightened and stepped forward to stop him: "Father! You can't leave the palace!"
Emperor Zhou turned a deaf ear to this, easily drew out the sword of one of the Imperial Guards, and walked straight to the vestibule.
Seeing his appearance, the leader of the assassins sneered and said: "Dog Emperor! You are still pretending to be dead when you are about to die. It's really disgusting!"
Emperor Zhou raised his eyebrows lightly and looked calm: "I am the emperor, and I am proud of myself. As for you, how dare you, a mere remnant of the Yeping Kingdom, to make an enemy of the entire Zhou Dynasty? You are really underestimating your own capabilities!"
The men and women who were hiding with their heads in their arms raised their heads and looked up when they heard this, whispering: "They are actually from Yeping? Haven't they been wiped out in the Bai Zhenmen case? How can they still come out to do evil? "
The assassin leader was furious when he heard this. He slashed at the place behind him where the discussion was coming from with his sword, and said viciously: "Shameless people of Zhou! How dare you mention the Baizhen Sect? If I hadn't fallen into your trick, how could I, Ye Ping, be so dead or injured?" Too many people? You all deserve to die!"
The knife rose and fell, the cold light dazzling the eyes.
A horrifying gash was made on a little girl's neck, and blood spurted out and splashed three feet away.
She fell down with a plop, her face was green and white, her eyes were as wide as copper bells, staring in the direction of Zixiang Palace, her body twitched and she died within a few seconds.
