Chapter Eighty-Seven: Become an Ally
Looking at Wuchen, who seemed to be trapped in the magic barrier of the past, Chu Xingyue took a step back in fear, trying to keep himself at a distance from him.
This guy even dares to move Concubine Yang's mausoleum, what else does he dare not do.
Moreover, according to what he said just now, he could vaguely guess that he had tried his best to prevent Yang Rui from entering the palace back then, but unfortunately he did not succeed.
Emperor Showa is a man with a heart of flowers, and there are countless beauties in the harem, even if Yang Rui is beautiful and beautiful, I am afraid it will be difficult to tie the heart of the Son of Heaven, which is why when mentioning Emperor Showa, Wuchen's mouth is full of hatred and contempt.
I heard that this dustless master has a good personal relationship with Emperor Showa over the years, and he can enter the palace freely, it seems that Emperor Showa has been able to live a good life so far, and he is still merciful to Wuchen's subordinates.
Without a fit of rage, he was killed.
It's just that why did he say that what was waiting for Yang Rui was not the love of the king, but the poison that ate the bones?
She once heard Zhao Ling tell her in person that his biological mother was seriously damaged when she gave birth to him, and although she finally walked around and came back before the ghost gate closed, she still suffered a lot of vitality.
Since then, he has been sick in bed and has struggled for several months, but because he can't support it, he died early.
It stands to reason that Concubine Yang's death should be just caused by illness and weakness, but listening to Wuchen's tone, it seems that it is not so simple, is there other pickling methods that are not humane to outsiders?
Chu Xingyue thought of Zhao Ling's loneliness when he mentioned his biological mother, and suddenly felt a pain in his heart, and subconsciously blurted out to Wuchen: "Yang Rui is not weak and sick to death, right?" You know the truth, don't you? ”
Wuchen's eyes turned his head to look at Chu Xingyue with cold eyes, his vision has always been very accurate, sure enough, this girl is really not ordinary smart, he just vaguely mentioned so many words, she can guess so much.
It's just that there are too many people involved in the past, and if he really tells all the truth, I'm afraid that her little life will really not be saved.
Wuchen smiled faintly at Chu Xingyue, his pale face was about to show a bit of vitality with his smile, making him no longer look so cold and unapproachable.
"Princess Ling, do you know that from the moment I walked out of the bamboo forest, your life was completely grasped by me; All these things that you see in this forest today, and the questions you ask, including these words that you hear, are great secrets; Although I am a monk, when I was young, I used to hunt horses and fight on the battlefield, and killing people is no stranger to me. ”
Although Chu Xingyue's heart was pounding, there was no fear on her face: "Really? But this princess thinks that in the end, you, Master Wuchen, may not kill me. ”
Chu Xingyue analyzed Wuchen's psychology, her expression was calm and indifferent, as if she was talking to an acquaintance she knew, with an indescribable ease and calmness on her expression.
"If the master wants to kill the princess, it is nothing more than to kill the princess, if this is the reason, the master does not have to; Because, whether it is the death of Concubine Yang or the tomb of Concubine Yang, this princess can be tight-lipped as much as a bottle. ”
Seeing Wuchen looking at him in surprise, Chu Xingyue shrugged her shoulders comfortably and continued: "Master, don't forget, I am Princess Ling, the wife of King Ling, and the daughter-in-law of Concubine Yang, do you think if I run out and tell others that Concubine Yang's tomb is actually not in the imperial tomb but in the temple, when this matter reaches the ears of the Son of Heaven, what will he do when the emperor is furious?" ”
"Emperor Showa will definitely send someone to raze Longquan Temple, and then, the old relationship between you and Concubine Yang will also be turned out by someone with a heart, if this old relationship is used by someone with ill intentions in his hands and becomes a weakness to attack King Ling, then at that time, King Ling's Mansion will be unlucky; And this princess will also be implicated. ”
Wuchen didn't expect to hear these words from Chu Xingyue's mouth, and her words did sound reasonable.
You must know that King Ling is now participating in the seizure of the heir, if this is caught by his opponent, let alone have the opportunity to become the prince, I am afraid that when the time comes, King Ling will definitely be kicked out of the capital by the suspicious Emperor Showa, and he will spend his life with a mediocre reward of a fief.
Such a life and ending may be even more painful for King Ling than Ling Chi.
Seeing that Wuchen's eyes were loose, Chu Xingyue continued: "Directly speaking, in fact, the master and this princess are also people in the same boat. ”
Wuchen laughed out loud, and looked at Chu Xingyue who was spitting out amazing words in astonishment, "What kind of trick is Princess Ling trying to play?" ”
"How can it be said to be a trick? Don't you think that the appearance of this princess in front of you at this time is the arrangement of fate, and it is the best arrangement? ”
Chu Xingyue looked at the word Yang Rui carved on the tombstone and continued: "The master of Concubine Yang's death knows the truth, and this truth is the most advantageous sword in our hands. Even though the master didn't say anything, the princess could guess a little bit about what the harem was, it was a place where the most beautiful flowers were planted, the most beautiful clothes were dressed, and the most beautiful houses lived. ”
"But is that really the case?"
The playful smile on the corner of Chu Xingyue's mouth became heavier and heavier: "I can't hide it, just a few days ago, this princess was plotted by a person in the harem, and she almost lost the most precious chastity of a woman; So for the place that seems gorgeous but is dirty and smelly, this princess has the most right to speak. ”
Wuchen couldn't believe that Chu Xingyue actually told him such a secret matter, you must know that a woman's loss of virginity is extremely serious in Dawei, if this matter is heard by others, her reputation can be regarded as ruined.
But she didn't expect that she blurted out such an important thing to herself.
This girl is really not an ordinary person.
Chu Xingyue continued: "Concubine Yang's death must have an inside story, and this inside story is definitely related to those women in the harem; Even if the master keeps his mouth shut, if this princess wants to find out what happened back then, it will not be difficult; As long as you find a way to find out who was the biggest beneficiary after Concubine Yang's death, the truth is naturally self-evident, isn't it? ”
Wuchen looked at Chu Xingyue with straight eyes, and was silent for a long time before he spoke: "I really underestimate you." ”
"Why did the master say such an outrageous thing? Could it be that at this moment, the master also regarded this princess as an opponent? The master should think like this, with a united front friend like this princess, you should be more at ease; The master is still so indignant when he mentions the death of Concubine Yang, it can be seen that there is still pain in his heart about her death, and he must be very remorseful in your heart that he can't find out the person who killed her and bring him to justice. ”
"How about I have a collaboration with the master?"
Chu Xingyue stretched out her hand to Wuchen, "I helped the master seek justice for Concubine Yang's death, and the master left me alive, how about it?" ”
Looking at the little girl who was smiling like a cunning fox in front of her, Wuchen's heart trembled fiercely.
To tell the truth, the biggest reason why he has tortured himself so much over the years is that he hates that he has no way to arrest Rui'er's killer and make her blind under Jiuquan.
In front of him, this smart and clever little girl hit him in the soft underbelly at once, and took out a temptation that was difficult for him to refuse.
But could he really trust her?
The incident involved too many people back then, and many times he was skeptical, wondering if Emperor Showa also knew the truth, but he acquiesced to the existence of those who killed Rui'er.
If this is the case, even if he has the ability to turn the world upside down, I am afraid he will not be able to give Rui'er an explanation.
After all, if even the most powerful men in Great Wei become their backing, who else can take those harmful executioners with a way?!
But is he really willing to die such a painful and tormenting death?
Before his death, he didn't protect her, and after he died, he still wanted those who harmed her to continue to live happily, he had been disturbed by his conscience for twenty years, should he continue in the future?
Looking at the extremely struggling and tangled look on Wuchen's face, Chu Xingyue stepped forward and grabbed his hand.
He picked up his hand and shook it with his own, met his suddenly widened eyes, and smiled, "Master Wuchen, now we are allies. ”
Wuchen looked at Chu Xingyue with a bright smile in a daze, he couldn't believe that the person he was going to deal with just now was so fast that he could hold hands with him in the blink of an eye and become an ally in her mouth?
Could it be that invisibly, he was really dragged away by her, and he was reluctant to kill her in response to her words?
At this moment, a small sound suddenly sounded in the windless automatic bamboo forest, as if someone was performing a peerless light technique, quickly attacking in the direction where they were.
Wuchen immediately protected Yang Rui's tomb and Chu Xingyue behind him as a protector, and his eyes flashed brightly, at this moment, Chu Xingyue clearly smelled the breath of death on his body.
Thinking that he was very likely to be buried in the hands of such a person just now, Chu Xingyue reached out and touched his still warm neck in fear.
"Since you can break into here, it proves that there is a way to get out, go quickly."
Chu Xingyue looked at Wuchen who said such a paragraph, and looked at him with a smile in Shui Lingling's eyes: "Master, do you agree?" You really don't want my life, do you? ”
"At such a time, how can I talk to you about this; Someone can break in, the ability is very visible, and then listen to the movement in the forest, you can judge the body is amazing, I don't know if it's friend or foe, leave quickly. ”
After speaking, Wuchen pointed to Chunxing, who had fainted aside, and continued: "I will send her out too, you leave first." ”
Looking at Wuchen, who had even protected Chunxing's life, Chu Xingyue was really satisfied, and slowly closed her eyes while Wuchen was not paying attention.
Divine eye! Open!
When Chu Xingyue saw that the people who flew in from the bamboo shadow all the way were Mukcha and Zhuo Lang, she was frightened, and immediately opened her eyes and let out an exclamation at the same time.
No way! How could it be these two people, is it really because of her unique skills that she has caused trouble?
"What's wrong? Why aren't you leaving? ”
Chu Xingyue looked at Wuchen at a loss, not knowing how to tell him what he saw, and at the same time, he also gritted his teeth and made a bold decision.
"Master, I'm not leaving!"
"What did you say?" Wuchen really thinks that this girl has suddenly become stupid again.
Chu Xingyue was startled into a cold sweat, and even her face was faintly pale, but she still looked at Wuchen with a smile.
"I guess it's probably coming at me, and hiding from this kind of murderer is never the solution. My man once said to me that as Princess Ling, I want to be like him, I am not allowed to be a deserter, and I must win the battle! In this way, I am qualified to be worthy of the title of Princess Ling. ”
