Toad Palace Spring and Autumn
Chapter 43
Wangcheng Palace Lane, Zhu Yu Biwa.Yue Yinlin followed Ye Lichang through the palace gates, and walked through a deserted forest homeland of smoky and overgrown grass, and unconsciously slowed down.The vermilion lacquer of the dilapidated gate was mottled, and the cold wind pouring in through the cracks rattled the seals.Perhaps it was because of years of exposure to the sun and wind that the plaque on the lintel had already fallen to the ground, accumulating a thick layer of loess.
He remembers this place.
In my impression, there was also a gorgeous palace garden with Danying carvings here, which was the residence of the emperor bestowed by the emperor, and almost every heir of the royal family was admonished here.Later, for some reason, there were rumors that the emperor's master had a close relationship with the concubine in the harem. In a rage, the first emperor ransacked the entire family of the emperor's master, and ordered the concubine to be put in the cold palace, and no one was allowed to approach him. It is a regret that people talk about over the years.
At that time, Yue Yinlin was still young, and he didn't care about the right and wrong of the court.The reason why he remembered it so clearly was because the concubine who fell out of favor was none other than his mother and concubine Zhaozang.But now times have changed, and the dusty years of mother and child separation have gradually settled down with the death of the late emperor.After a long period of despair, there is hope. Although it is a family relationship between mother and son, it is impossible to imagine what it will be like to meet again after a long time.
"It's almost there, the Empress Dowager's bedroom is just ahead."
Just as he was in a trance, Ye Lichang's voice suddenly came, Yue Yinlin only felt that he had returned to the world from his dream, and the past disappeared like smoke, leaving no trace in an instant.
"Huh? This is not the way to Shujing Palace."
Seeing that Yue Yinlin was suspicious, Ye Lichang said calmly: "Your Highness does not know. Although the Queen Mother Wei committed a capital crime, the Holy Majesty cared about the relationship between mother and child, and kept Shujing Palace vacant after her death. A Changning Palace was given to the Queen Mother Zhaozang, so the two places are not in the same direction."
As soon as the words were finished, there was a commotion in front of him, and several attendants came towards him carrying a sedan chair.
The sedan chair was covered with black gauze, and the sedan chair body was not very decorated.Although the entourage's attire was very ordinary, their steps were fast and steady, exuding an aura of domineering intentions for no reason.
Yue Yinlin sensed that the visitor was not kind, so he frowned and asked Ye Lichang, "Do you know who is in the sedan chair?"
Ye Lichang didn't have time to reply, the sedan chair had already landed on the ground, and several attendants who carried the sedan chair also came to him like fleeting shadows.This group of people is holding a big knife, the two sides of the weapon are extremely smooth, the swaying palace lantern reflects the stern light of the knife, it seems that it has been premeditated, merged into several white lights and shot towards Yue Yinlin's face, shaking him so much that he couldn't open it His eyes fell into darkness for an instant.
"There are assassins! Your Highness, come with me!"
Ye Lizhen screamed, Yue Yinlin didn't know the direction, was dragged by him and stumbled forward, turned into a narrow alley with palace walls on both sides in a panic.The sound of chaotic footsteps continued to be heard from behind, and the sound of killing all the way was endless.In desperation, Ye Licheng pushed open a half-covered palace gate beside him to let Yue Yinlin advance, but he gritted his teeth, but led the pursuers to go in the opposite direction.
The surroundings suddenly quieted down, and the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Yue Yinlin concentrated on adjusting his breath for a moment, wanting to open his eyes to see where this place is, but the old trouble relapsed, and he could only vaguely glimpse a tall and thin figure standing not far away, emitting a faint light in the cold night.
"Who? Who's there?"
The cold wind whistled, and no one answered for a long time.The faint light became brighter and brighter, and when Yue Yinlin reacted, he knew that someone was approaching him step by step with a lantern——
The light illuminated the human face, with frowning brows, phoenix eyes, pale complexion, and a ghostly expression.
"General Li, why is it you?"
As soon as Yue Yinlin's words came out, Li Changge couldn't help laughing, "I've been waiting for a chance to get rid of you in a legitimate way. I didn't expect you to be so obedient and throw yourself into a trap...haha..."
His laughter was so vicious and desolate that it made people shudder.Yue Yinlin understood everything as soon as he heard it, "You and Ye Licheng had planned it long ago, why bother to pretend to be the Queen Mother? But let me remind you, even if you are an admiral, the palace is not a place for you to do whatever you want!"
Li Changge heard the words, hehe sneered: "Jing Huan, oh Jing Huan! You don't have the emperor's life, and you go back to the court privately first, and then visit the palace at night. If you deceive the king like this, if you think that the emperor knows nothing, it's too much." How naive! This time, you must die, both public and private."
If you want to add a crime, there is nothing to worry about.When Yue Yinlin realized this, he stopped wasting words.He knew Li Changge very well, and if this person hadn't made sure arrangements in advance, he would never have tried every means to lure him here.I'm afraid tonight is more ominous than good.
Thinking of this, Yue Yinlin simply closed his eyes, put his right hand on the hilt of his sword, and waited quietly with his breath held.
Li Changge was irritated by his cold attitude, and his shot was a fatal blow as fast as lightning.Where the sword light rises, there is a howling wind, and in an instant it turns into a falcon and swoops down.This move of condensing the air was no small matter, Yue Yinlin drew his sword out of its sheath in horror, and it could have cut through the chest and belly of the eagle.Unexpectedly, the accident happened suddenly, and there was a jingling sound in the ear, and the silver needles scattered in all directions!Yue Yinlin was caught off guard and rolled on the spot, and his ankle was accidentally pricked by a silver needle. In an instant, his whole leg was twisted due to pain. After a while, his eyes and lips turned purple, and his eyebrows and eyelashes were covered with frost.
"I didn't expect you to be so vulnerable. In vain, I set up a strange array for you. It seems that it will be useless for the time being..." After Li Changge finished speaking, he looked up at the sky foolishly, tears streaming down his face, and murmured He muttered, "Father, mother... I once swore that I would use the blood of my enemy to sue your dead souls. Now, I am still one step away... You have spirits in the sky, and you must bless my Li family for revenge... ..."
Hearing this, Yue Yinlin panted with a face like paper: "You, who are you?..."
Li Changge didn't answer, just smiled.
Yue Yinlin's heartbeat became heavier and heavier, and he was imprisoned by a surge of paralysis, almost unable to breathe.He suddenly had a strange experience in his heart, could this be the feeling of dying?It's not that he hasn't thought about death, after all, people are mortal. Thinking about it carefully, there are not a few lives that end in his hands.But he never thought that one day death would be so close to him, and in such an unexpected way...
Anyway, it was all too sudden.Thinking of this, Yue Yinlin lost consciousness in an instant.
Li Changge leaned down, tested his breath with his fingers, and a sly smile appeared on the corners of his lips.However, as soon as he turned his head, the smile froze on his face, Baili Yunxiao stood there motionless, his eyes were like cold stars, and his face was as cold as frost.
"You're here, finally here... Unfortunately, it's too late, he can't be saved." Li Changge's face was still wet with tears, and his description was very haggard.
Baili Yunxiao ignored Li Changge, walked straight past Li Changge, knelt down beside Yue Yinlin, and wanted to hug him.
However, Li Changge suddenly drew his sword out of its sheath, and the blade lay between him and Yue Yinlin, and said slowly, "He's dead, I don't allow you to touch him." After finishing speaking, he secretly observed Baili Yunxiao's reaction, but It turned out he wasn't responding at all.
"Didn't you say you would kill me to avenge him? Come on, kill me, come on!"
Baili Yunxiao flicked his sword away without bulletproof fingers. Li Changge was unprepared, flew more than a foot away, staggered and fell to the ground, coughing continuously.
"I will. But not now."
After a while, Li Changge realized that he was answering his last sentence, and couldn't help raising his eyebrows angrily: "What do you mean you know it, but not now? Baili Yunxiao, please speak clearly!"
"Pity is a feeling. I can't express it clearly, and I don't want to express it clearly."
After Baili Yunxiao said coldly, he hugged Yue Yinlin by the waist and walked in the same direction as when he got up.
"Heh, where do you want to take a dead man?"
"Anywhere is fine. But where you are, I don't want to stay for a moment."
Li Changge laughed instead of anger when he heard this.
Night is black.There is clearly a moon in the sky, but in this corner, the moonlight cannot leak in at all.The night guards were walking back and forth outside the nearby palace walls, but no one noticed that there was a dead wind blowing over the abandoned garden, and everything was as usual.
