reincarnated as emperor [rebirth]

Chapter 14.Assassination

In the middle of the night, Huangfu Yunzheng sat by the bed, looked at the book in his hands with Ling Qiu, and communicated from time to time. After a while, he heard the person beside him yawn, looked at the sky outside, and spoke softly. Said: "It's time to rest."

Shen Lingqiu nodded, sleepiness hit his heart, he lay down slowly, pulled Huangfu Yunzheng's sleeve with his right hand, and motioned him to sleep together, but the person beside the bed didn't intend to lie down, but gently Looking at him, stroking his palm with fingertips.

After a long while, Ling Qiu couldn't resist the drowsiness, and fell asleep with his head tilted, his right hand lightly clutching Huangfu Yunzheng's sleeve, breathing steadily and evenly.

After he fell asleep, Huangfu Yunzheng, who was sitting by the bed, sighed softly, took his hands away from his sleeves, and stuffed them back into the quilt. He looked at the peaceful sleeping face of the person on the bed for a while, and endured She couldn't help but leaned down, pressed a kiss on that soft lips, then pursed her lips and smiled lightly, tucked in the quilt, got up and walked outside.

When we arrived in the garden, it was dark at night. Huangfu Yunzheng walked along the path and came to a pavilion. The bright moonlight barely illuminated the pavilion, and Feng Yang was waiting there.

Besides, after he left just now, he stopped by to inquire about the news in the palace, and when he came back, he waited here, and when he saw Huangfu Yunzheng approaching, he lowered his body and told all the news he had heard.

Huangfu Yunzheng stood in front of him and listened patiently to what he said. Sure enough, as he expected, Du Yi was very peaceful in the palace, and did not make any small moves. Xu knew that he had not left the capital, and had something to do. Be afraid.

Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "Continue to keep an eye on her, as well as the people in the Du Mansion, as long as there is any movement, come and report immediately." He will never let Du Yi take advantage of him when he goes out. machine, but she dare not overdo it.

"Yes." Feng Yang obeyed his orders and retreated, and suddenly he was the only one left in the pavilion. After standing for a while, Huangfu Yunzheng turned around and returned to the room. Ling Qiu was already fast asleep. He quietly took off his coat and lay down on his bed. Beside him, he turned sideways and stretched his arms, and hugged the person into his arms. Seeing the person in his arms move, he found a comfortable position and then stopped moving again. He smiled softly, hugged the person tightly, and closed his arms. eye rest.

In the early morning of the next day, Huangfu Yunzheng got up early, and after Ling Qiu also got up, the two of them made some preparations and headed out of the mansion. The carriage was already ready, and he took the hand of the person beside him, and got on with him. The wheels of the carriage rolled, and the Prime Minister's Mansion slowly disappeared from sight.

Sitting on the carriage, Huangfu Yunzheng kept holding the hands of the people beside him, thinking heavily in his heart, soon the carriage drove out of the city, the crowds gradually became less and less, and when he entered the forest, there was only the sound of birds flying by, and it was quiet It's a bit unusual.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, it will definitely succeed." Shen Lingqiu, who was sitting on the side, couldn't help but said while seeing him frowning.Not to mention the guards around him, there are many shadow guards protecting him in the dark, and he will surely kill those villains successfully, so there is no need to worry.

Hearing what he said, Huangfu Yunzheng nodded lightly, and the big rock in his heart was slightly let go. Just as the two were chatting without saying a word, there was a sudden sound of breaking wind outside, and the palm of his hand holding Ling Qiu suddenly trembled. Tight, alarm bells ringing in my heart——

coming!

Hearing rustling sounds from outside, accompanied by the shouts of the guards, the two teams immediately fought together. Huangfu Yunzheng sat in the carriage, raised the curtain and looked out, and saw some masked men in black with him During the battle with the guards, when they saw him lift the curtain, they rushed out of the encirclement and came towards him.

"Be careful, stay in the carriage and don't come out." Seeing them flying towards them, Huangfu Yunzheng squinted his eyes, drew out the sword beside him, and met them.

A man in black stabbed at him, he dodged sideways, raised his sword and stabbed at him, and soon other people came to help, Huangfu Yunzheng sneered, while dealing with these people in front of him, he looked at all the black people The man in black, after a while, he discovered that almost all the men in black were following the command of a man not far away, very well, he must be the leader!Capture the thief first and capture the king, so it must be right to kill him!

Thinking of this, Huangfu Yunzheng's subordinates became ruthless, and after stabbing all the men in black around him, they flew out and landed in front of the man. He stared into his eyes, and suddenly his hands moved, the blade of the sword was like As if alive, he obeyed his command extremely, and drew several bloodstains on the man's body.

Suddenly, the man's sword turned and stabbed towards his waist. Huangfu Yunzheng turned around and narrowly avoided it, then unceremoniously raised his hand and stabbed the sword into the man's chest from bottom to top. After a pause, he quickly dodged behind him, put the sword across his neck, and wiped it hard, blood spurted out from the man's neck immediately, and he fell to the ground and died.

Seeing that the leader was dead, the other men in black were visibly panicked, Huangfu Yunzheng smiled coldly, just in time to see someone attacking Ling Qiu in the carriage, he immediately rushed over, stabbed the man in black with his sword, and then Turning to Feng Yang, he said, "I'll leave it to you, no one will be left."

"Yes." Feng Yang responded in a low voice, and together with a few shadow guards, escorted the two of them out of the perimeter. After reaching the perimeter, they left in a flash to help the other brothers deal with the remaining assassins.

Huangfu Yunzheng pulled Shen Lingqiu, and the two of them came to the side of the horse, ready to get on the horse and leave first. Today's plan has been half successful, at least they have successfully lured these thieves out. As for things like silence, he is not needed. Come in person and leave it to Feng Yang and the others, he can trust it.

Thinking this way, he was about to get on the horse and take Ling Qiu away. Just as he was sitting on the horse and stretched out his hand to Ling Qiu, trying to pull him on the horse, a man in black who had fallen to the ground suddenly groped from a distance not far away. He took out a few pieces of gunpowder from his bosom, threw them on the ground with all his strength, and opened the mechanism on his arm, and suddenly a few sleeve arrows flew out, heading towards Huangfu Yunzheng who was on the horse.

"Protect the emperor!" Feng Yang shouted subconsciously when he saw this, he quickly flew to the middle, swiped his sword and knocked out a few sleeve arrows, but two escaped and flew forward.

Standing in the distance, Shen Lingqiu watched the two sleeve arrows flying towards the horseman, before he had time to think more, he grabbed the sword from Huangfu Yunzheng's hand, and hastily knocked down one of the sleeve arrows, while the other But it was too late for Mei to dodge, he looked back at the saddle, stepped hard and sat down behind Huangfu Yunzheng, hugged his waist with both hands, only heard a puff, the sleeve arrow sank into the shoulder blade, and a burst of severe pain struck.

"Ling Qiu!" Huangfu Yunzheng's eyes widened suddenly, but he only felt the person behind him lying powerlessly on his back. He quickly turned sideways, hugged Ling Qiu in front of him, and looked at the sleeve arrow on his shoulder blade. , and with a pale complexion, he clenched his fists tightly, his eyes cracked.

Feng Yang, who was not far away, saw this scene. He rushed to the man who put the hidden weapon, and swung the sword mercilessly, cutting the man into several pieces. The smoke gradually cleared, and there were still a few The man in black was missing, he hurriedly came to the horse, and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, there is an assassin who has escaped, and I will immediately lead people to chase after him."

Huangfu Yunzheng only felt his ears ringing, and he couldn't hear his words clearly, so he just nodded subconsciously, he sat down with Ling Qiu in his arms, let him lean in his arms, and then said softly: "Ling Qiu, I will take you with me right away." You go back to see the imperial doctor, you hold on." After speaking, he turned his horse's head and rushed towards the city.

I don't know how many times I whipped the whip, and finally returned to the city. Huangfu Yunzheng rushed to the gate of the prime minister's mansion. The shadow guards who went ahead had already invited the imperial doctor. When they heard that the emperor and empress had been assassinated, everyone was waiting anxiously in the mansion.

He took Ling Qiu off the horse, took him back to the house, let him lean in his arms, and sat up on the bed. The imperial doctor followed with a medicine box. When he saw the injury, he immediately sent someone to go to the hospital. Prepare hot water, clean handkerchief, etc.

"I ordered you to heal the queen, do you hear?" Huangfu Yunzheng sat on the side of the bed, grabbed the imperial doctor by the collar, his eyes were bloodshot, he miscalculated, he shouldn't have taken Ling Qiu with him at all. come out!

If he hadn't brought him here, then Ling Qiu wouldn't have been injured for saving him, it was all his fault!Full of self-blame spread in his heart, Huangfu Yunzheng clenched his fists, wishing to slap himself hard.Just when he couldn't stop feeling sad, he felt someone holding his hand. He looked down and saw Ling Qiu was leaning in his arms, eyes slightly opened, and his bloody right hand was gently resting on it. in his palm.

"Your Majesty, I'm fine, don't worry." Shen Lingqiu endured the pain and dizziness from the wound, and tried his best to say, in fact, the injury was not a serious one, but the sleeve arrow happened to be stuck in the shoulder blade. It's a bit of a pain.

However, he didn't regret it at all, he was actually happy in his heart, he was glad that it was not Huangfu Yunzheng who was injured, but himself, but before he could think more, he closed his eyes again dizzily.

Soon the servant of the prime minister's mansion prepared all the tools, the imperial doctor washed his hands, stood by the bed, leaned down and cut the clothes around the wound with scissors, and saw the sleeve arrow stuck in the shoulder blade, his eyes flashed Unable to bear it at all, he sighed softly in his heart, took out a clean cloth towel, handed it to Huangfu Yunzheng, and said, "Please ask the emperor to let the empress bite the cloth towel so as not to bite her own tongue."

Huangfu Yunzheng heard the words and hastily put the cloth towel into the mouth of the person in his arms. Seeing that the imperial doctor's hand was on the sleeve arrow, he squeezed Ling Qiu's hand tightly and hugged him tightly.

The imperial doctor standing by the bed took a deep breath, pulled out the sleeve arrow with all his might, blood gushed out immediately, and soon stained his clothes and sheets red, he quickly disinfected the wound, applied good medicine, and bandaged it up.

Holding the person in his arms tightly, Huangfu Yunzheng clearly felt that Ling Qiu's body froze suddenly at the moment when the sleeve arrow was pulled out, and then trembled slightly, cold sweat kept oozing from his forehead, The whole person seemed to be fished out of the water, and his clothes were soaked in sweat. Huangfu Yunzheng held his hand tightly, and said softly: "It's okay, it's okay." He kept repeating these three words, but he didn't know what it meant. While comforting the person in his arms, he was still comforting himself.

After doing all this, the imperial doctor took a step back and said respectfully in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the queen's injury is not serious. These days, the wound should not get wet, rest well, and it will heal within a few days. Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Hearing what he said, Huangfu Yunzheng's heart was finally relieved. He raised his hand to let everyone out, only to realize that he was also covered in cold sweat. Ever since he saw Ling Qiu injured, he hadn't looked like that. Himself, he was afraid of losing him again, afraid of what happened in the last life would repeat itself.

Thinking of this, Huangfu Yunzheng's eyes almost shed tears, he stood up without strength, helped the person on the bed change into clean clothes, then sat on the side of the bed, holding his hand tightly, and looked at Ling Qiu With a pale face, his heart was full of remorse.

It's a good thing he's fine, it's a good thing...
