Empress Chu

He looked at Chu Zhao, with night and fire in his eyes, jumping and turning.

"How could you want to kill me?"

Chu Zhao couldn't listen anymore: "Xie Yanfang, what nonsense are you talking about? Why didn't I kill you?"

Xie Yanfang seemed slightly taken aback, as if this was a question that she never had to think about.

"Because." He said, and stopped after saying two words.

Chu Zhao didn't need him to answer, and gave him the answer himself.

"Mr. Xie, how can such a smart person as you ask such a ridiculous question?"

"Because you are great? Because you are Xiao Yu's uncle? Yes, that's right, because you are great, because you are Xiao Yu's uncle, of course I treat you well, respect you, and admire you, but that doesn't mean I won't Can't kill you?"

"I didn't kill you before, because I still need you to overcome thorns and thorns, cut mountains and seas, clear roads and obstacles for me and Xiao Yu, Xie Yanfang, now Xiliang has been settled, King Zhongshan has been eliminated, Deng Yi is dead, and Xiao Yu is going to kill you." Pro-government, and you have become an obstacle I want to get rid of, of course I will kill you."

Speaking of this, Chu Zhao pushed the pen into his neck again, although it still remained motionless, which also showed her intentions.

She looked up at Xie Yanfang, gritted her teeth and shouted.

"I just hate that I did it so late."

Xie Yanfang looked at the flames dancing in the girl's eyes, and the undisguised hostility. The wind, rain, and haze in her heart were all empty in an instant, and they were all cut away in an instant, and they returned to a sense of relief.

He smiled.

"Yes, that's right, that's right, that's it."

"People like us, of course want to kill, of course we want to kill."

He held Chu Zhao's hand, pulled it away from his neck, and turned to Chu Zhao.

Not as strenuous as Chu Zhao's movements, his movements are slow and smooth, accompanied by the jumping flames, the tip of the pen approaches Chu Zhao's neck.

The fair neck and the blue tip of the knife have the same beauty.

There was no fear in Chu Zhao's eyes, but she turned her head slightly and looked at the fighting——

"Don't worry." Xie Yanfang looked at her without asking who she wanted to see, "I'm going to die, I won't see you now, but I will see you later."

Having said that, he smiled again.

"It's very good, we died together, and you have company under the spring."

Chu Zhao snorted, and looked back at him: "That's good, the third son will die with us, how lonely you are living alone."

Xie Yanfang was amused, because she could feel the rise and fall of his chest when she got close.

"I'd better stay in the world and miss you." He said, with a smile in his cold jade-like eyes, "Someone can miss you, and you won't be lonely."

He looked at the girl's face again, earnestly and carefully, as if he wanted to engrave her in his heart.

In fact, it was already in his heart.

He was delighted by the sudden appearance of a strange color in the world, and he was willing to ride the boat with her, no matter the wind and the current, but he didn't expect that she just wanted to go alone.

This is really sad.

He can't just look at the strange color and go away, so let it disappear with his own hands.

Xie Yanfang lowered her eyes and sent her hand out——

But at this moment, he suddenly raised his eyes, and at some point under his feet, a figure crawled up like a long snake, and then spat out a scarlet letter.

The long sword brushed against Chu Zhao's shoulder and stabbed at Xie Yanfang's heart.

Xie Yanfang twisted her waist and leaned back. At the same time, he held the pen in Chu Zhao's hand and sent it out, stabbing the person who came.

The visitor rolled like a snake, avoiding the pen, but Xie Yanfang had already turned around from the back, with long hands like knives, slashing the visitor.

The visitor let out a muffled groan, as if he had been broken in two and fell to the ground.

Chu Zhao was still firmly held by Xie Yanfang. She let out a scream and looked at the figure on the ground.

Even if it was blurry, even if she didn't say a word, she still recognized it.

"mother--"

Not waiting for her to struggle desperately, another gust of wind hit her from the side, she just felt dizzy, as if she was thrown out by Xie Yanfang, or sucked away by the strong wind.

While the world was spinning, I saw blood splatter, a head flew up, and she fell into an embrace.

Du Qi's headless body stood in front of Xie Yanfang, knelt down with a plop, and then fell down and couldn't move.

Behind him, Xie Yanfang was half kneeling on the ground, her clothes were covered with blood, she raised her head slightly and looked over.

Chu Zhao also raised his head, and saw Xie Yanlai's fair face under the firelight, which was covered in blood and ferocious like a beast.

The next moment her eyes dazzled, her body flew into the air again, she couldn't help but put her arms around Xie Yanlai's neck, and rushed up the mountain in the dark.

At the same time, Kapok Hong, who was broken on the ground and escaped a blow, also got up and ran.

The two figures were like fiery snakes, burning a path in the fight.

Xie Yanfang half-kneeled on the ground, watching the fire snake winding away into the forest, he reached out and pressed his chest.

An inch above the heart, a long sword was inserted, trembling slightly.

……

……

Chu Zhao only felt his ears buzzing, filled with the sound of wind and fighting, but he couldn't seem to hear anything.

She hugged Xie Yanlai tightly and only looked at Xie Yanlai.

"Xie Yanlai, Xie Yanlai—" she shouted loudly, "Why are you here, why are you here."

This is not actually a question, but just shouting, one after another, until the voice is hoarse and more swallowed, and tears are falling.

She was filled with shock and joy.

How could he come? She was so far away and she didn't tell him any news.

and also……

"Mother—" she hissed again, looking around vigorously.

mother?Mother was Xie Yanfang——

A figure passed by.

"I'm here." Mu Mianhong shouted, although her voice was a little hoarse, but her movements were no slower than Xie Yanlai's, and she even passed him and walked forward, leaving only one sentence, "Ah Zhao, don't be afraid."

She wasn't afraid, she wasn't afraid at all, Chu Zhao hugged Xie Yanlai's neck tightly, letting himself stick close to him.

"Why are you here, why are you here?" she asked again.

"Come here as soon as you come, ask what you want!" Xie Yanlai shouted.

By the time they said this, they had already rushed into the forest and headed for a high place, but there was also the sound of fighting in the dense forest, and at the same time, the flames were everywhere, covering the sky and covering the earth like a net.

"Xie Yan, let me down." Chu Zhao shouted, "Go away, leave me—"

Xie Yan came and shouted: "Shut up."

But Chu Zhao didn't shut up: "I was kind to you when Xie Yan came here. You said that I wanted you and Xie Yanfang to kill each other. Although I didn't admit it at the time, I actually hid my selfish intentions, and that's how it turned out. Look, when Xie Yanfang was about to kill me, you came to save me—"

Not only did she say so much, she also strangled his neck so hard that Xie Yanlai staggered and almost fell.

"You never finish." Xie Yanlai said angrily, "Why do you talk so much all the time!"

"It's not over, listen to me, I don't think that way now, I don't think that way a long time ago, I don't want you to save me." Chu Zhao said, "You go, you take my mother and go, leave me alone .”

Xie Yanlai lowered her head and stared: "You—"

"I'm poisoned." Chu Zhao said, "I'm going to die."

Xie Yanlai paused, and with the light of the surrounding fire, she saw the pale face of the girl in her arms, a bloodstain on her neck, not deep, but a shallow one, the oozing blood glistened faintly blue.

"The poisonous knife I used to kill Xie Yanfang, he still scratched me just now." Chu Zhao said, looked up at Xie Yanlai, suddenly put his arms close to him, and bit his bloody chin, " I am poisoned, I will die, you go, you want to live."

Xie Yanlai's eyes were blank for a moment, he didn't know whether it was because of being molested and frivolous, or because of something else, he didn't speak any more, only hugged the person in his arms tightly, and ran up faster.

"Xie Yanlai—" Chu Zhao shouted.

"Xie Yanlai—" a voice shouted behind him, "I'm going to die—"

Xie Yanlai looked back slightly, and saw Xie Yanfang being carried by several people in the distant forest.

Under the light of the torch, he was covered in blood, and a sword was stuck above his heart.

"Xie Yanlai." He looked at the shadowy figure in the high forest, "Look at me."

He stretched out his hand to hold the long sword, and pressed it suddenly, the long sword penetrated his body, and the people behind him on both sides who were carrying him were immediately splashed with blood.

"My lord—" there were countless exclamations.

Xie Yanlai also seemed to be startled, and stopped in her tracks.

"Xie Yanlai, kill Chu Zhao."

"I have been seriously injured and disabled, and I will die soon. I will hand over the Xie family to you, Xiao Yu to you, and Da Xia to you."

"You are Xie's only son who can replace me."

"You are Daxia's only uncle."

"Master Xie respects you."

"Big Xia respects you."

Mrs. Xie, Daxia, will he be respected from now on?Xie Yanlai looked at the figure at the foot of the mountain, and then at the girl in his arms.

The girl's consciousness was already in a trance, but her hands still hugged him tightly.

"Kapokhong—" he yelled violently, throwing the girl in his hand vigorously, "then—"

By this time he had reached the edge of the cliff.

With a throw, Chu Zhao flew towards the cliff like flying through the clouds. She regained consciousness for a moment, watching Xie Yanlai's face getting farther and farther away in the firelight.

There was the sound of the wind, Xiao Yu's cry, and the sharp birdsong.

Her eyes darkened, everything disappeared, and she didn't know anything.

Volume Five

Chapter 1 Meng Yan

Chu Zhao felt that she fell into the sea in the storm, the sky was covered by dark clouds, and it was pitch black, while she heaved and fell in the huge waves.

Sometimes the sea water crushed her, and sometimes it was like countless arms tore her apart. At this time, her whole body was in pain, and her bones were screaming from the pain.

Sometimes there is peace again, and at this time, she rises and falls with the sea, shaking so comfortably that she just wants to fall into the bottom of the sea and fall into a deep sleep.

But every time when she was about to fall asleep, there was noise in her ears, the sound of swords and fighting, and she would wake up, wondering what happened.

Thank you Yan!

mother!

She struggled desperately to open her eyes, and the noise in her ears became clear.

"—the road ahead is blocked—"

"—I know where there is a way—"

"--go with the rat woman--"

"—Auntie, Auntie—Ding Dachui is dead—"

"—Auntie, Auntie—Chu Zhao can't do anymore—"

"Aunt woo woo - I can't do it either -"

Hearing this, Chu Zhao still wanted to laugh, and even wanted to call Xiaoman, "Don't be afraid, the three of us can still be company if we fail."

She shouted in her heart, she couldn't even hear her own voice, but she heard a gentle female voice.
