Adore Trick of Beauty

When Dingding saw the other person suddenly disappearing, he stamped his feet angrily and followed him. Two figures, one behind the other, flew quickly and silently towards the direction where King Jing left.

…

At the palace gate, there were shouts and shouts, and flames shot into the sky. Xiao Fengming stood not far from the palace gate and watched the soldiers of Crow Crow carrying huge siege cones and hitting the shaky solid palace gate one by one.

It's already been an afternoon. From the looks of it, the city gate should be breached before midnight. He tightened the hilt of the sword in his hand, and his warm and deep eyes were now darker than the night.

At this moment, a soldier ran over, knelt down and said: "Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Someone has escaped from the palace! I want to bring this message to the Emperor and the Queen! All!"

Xiao Fengming was shocked when he heard this, and almost grabbed him, his voice hoarse: "Where is he? Where is he?"

His surprise was even more surprising than the sudden collapse of the solid palace door. No one can understand the strength of this palace better than him. After two threats from the imperial power, the palace has been repaired and reinforced again and again. It can be said to be the strongest and tallest city wall in the world, and the tightest defense in the world. However, At this time, someone actually escaped from inside?

When the messenger was mentioned by him, he was so shocked that he almost forgot what he said next. After a while, he pointed behind him and said: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty... She is behind!"

Xiao Fengming hurriedly put him down and looked in the direction he was pointing. He saw a few soldiers carrying a ball of things wrapped in Gebu and hurriedly separated from the people in front of the emperor and walked forward quickly.

There was doubt in Xiao Fengming's eyes. The soldiers put down the ball of grass cloth and opened it. The people around them suddenly gasped in surprise and saw a pale female body curled up in the rough grass cloth. Her hair was very long, wet and spread to her waist. It was as thick and black as seaweed. She was only wearing a snow-white middle coat, which was also soaked, revealing the girl's beautiful and slender figure. Her exposed skin was as pale as snow, and the wounds on her feet were dripping with blood.

She closed her eyes slightly and remained motionless, with only the almost invisible rise and fall of her chest proving that she was still alive. She was like a shark just picked up from the bottom of the water, beautiful and holy, without a trace of human fireworks.

Xiao Fengming's eyes moved to her slightly swollen face, and his dark pupils shrank sharply. He stepped forward and quickly wrapped her up with Gebu, picked her up, and said in a solemn voice to the soldiers beside him: "Go to the imperial tent. !”

The imperial guards around him finally woke up and hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way.

Xiao Fengming has always been rigorous in running the army, and he was fully prepared in advance for this hunting trip with the three kings in the suburbs of Beijing. Therefore, as soon as an incident occurred, soldiers in charge of logistics set up the imperial tent and had everything ready.

When the imperial tent arrived, Xiao Fengming carefully placed the wrapped Yanqiu in the inner tent, turned to the soldiers beside him and said: "Go and tell the imperial doctor to come! Hurry!"

The soldiers retreated quickly. Xiao Fengming then carefully opened Ge Bu, revealing Yan Qiu's pale face. His eyes glanced over her body that was soaked in water and turned white. The exposed sleeves of her arms were covered with wounds that had collapsed due to being soaked for too long.

He sighed deeply: "Miss Yanqiu, how could you be so stupid?"

He reached out and gently stroked her messy hair, looking at her weak breathing, his heart became heavier and heavier. What happened in the palace? To actually make the palace maid next to Wushuang risk her life to escape from the palace to deliver the news?

Wushuang, Wushuang... He muttered her name silently, and his heart ached more and more.

It was his fault for not being considerate. If she made even the slightest mistake because of this matter, then he would never be able to atone for his sin even if he died!

The imperial doctor came in a hurry, examined her carefully, and shook her head sadly at Xiao Fengming: "Your Majesty, she is dead. She was severely injured after being tortured before, but now it looks like she swam for a long distance, and the wounds on her body have collapsed. I have exhausted all my strength, and if I hadn’t managed to hold on for a breath, I would have died long ago.”

Xiao Fengming's eyes darkened and he asked, "Is it really hopeless?"

The imperial doctor shook his head, lowered his head and said: "Wei Chen is ashamed. But if the emperor wants to ask the girl who sent the message, Wei Chen can give her an acupuncture to wake her up. But this time after waking up, she explained what was on her mind. The thing is, I’m afraid…”

The atmosphere in the imperial tent suddenly condensed.

Xiao Fengming looked at Yanqiu's lifeless face and asked slowly: "What if we don't wake her up?"

The imperial doctor thought for a while: "If she returns to the emperor, she will only be able to survive until tomorrow at most."

Xiao Fengming looked at Yan Qiu's face for a while and then said: "Use a needle. She came all the way here just to bring the news about the queen. If she is not allowed to tell it personally, I am afraid she will not feel at ease even after she dies."

The imperial doctor nodded silently, took the needle from beside him, cleaned his hands and concentrated, and slowly inserted it into each of Yanqiu's major acupoints...

…

Yanqiu only felt that she was swimming in a piece of blue water, with so many colorful fish around her, happily surrounding her. She smiled and watched them swimming in groups under the water, with her long hair rippling behind her, and she swam happily, as if she had forgotten all her worries.

Suddenly, there was a dim yellow light on the water in front, and the small fish all around rushed to swim away. She was just about to call them out, but found that she was also swimming towards the light without knowing it...

With a "crash", she finally broke through the water. Only then did she realize that she had been holding her breath for so long that she could hardly breathe. She breathed desperately...

"Miss Yanqiu! Miss Yanqiu..." someone called from beside her.

Yanqiu's eyes widened and she gasped desperately. A pair of warm hands held her trembling hand. The end of her confused eyes

Yu focused his attention and looked sideways at the pleasant sounds.

She stared blankly for a long time, tears suddenly rolled down her face, and her voice was hoarse and trembling: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."

She struggled to get up, but Xiao Fengming held her weak shoulders firmly and said in a low and gentle voice, "Don't get up. Just lie down and answer."

Yanqiu looked at him. She had never seen the true appearance of the emperors of the north and south so closely. He was so aloof that the normally humble palace maids did not dare to take another look at him.

"Your Majesty... go... to save the Queen..." Her voice was anxious: "Prince Jing... he caught the Queen..."

The more anxious she became, the harder she could explain. Her body, which had lost too much blood, was shaking like fallen leaves in autumn, and traces of heartache welled up in Xiao Fengming's quiet eyes. He held her trembling shoulders and his voice became gentler: "Speak slowly. I am listening."

His hands seemed to have endless reassuring power, and his elegant and wise face had the gentlest expression. Yanqiu's panic slowly calmed down, and she began to talk intermittently about what happened since King Jing invaded the palace.

She spoke slowly, intermittently, and disorganizedly, but Xiao Fengming listened quietly and patiently. Ask a question or two from time to time. Finally, Yanqiu got tired of talking and slowly closed her eyes.

Xiao Fengming looked at her youthful face that was whitened by water, and deep pity flashed in his deep eyes. Suddenly he held her hand that had long lost its warmth and called out in a low voice: "Miss Yanqiu..."

Yanqiu tried his best to open his eyes, looked at Xiao Fengming blankly, and asked with difficulty: "What is the emperor's order?"

"I didn't tell you." Xiao Fengming looked at her pale and swollen face and said slowly: "I want to say, thank you. I also want to thank you on behalf of the queen and the great court."

Yanqiu grinned, her eyes began to blur, and she murmured: "Your Majesty, go and save the Queen... Go..."

Xiao Fengming saw that her breath was almost gone and her whole body was shaking like an autumn leaf. She sighed deeply and asked, "Miss Yanqiu, do you have any other family members?"

"Family?" Yanqiu held on to the last glimmer of clarity, thought for a while, and smiled slowly. Miraculously, she stopped shaking, and said slowly: "Yes, I have a father. He is by the river. Fishing, Dad, I haven’t seen Dad for a long time..."

Her dying eyes showed the brilliance of nostalgia, so bright.

She was thinking about it, and suddenly she grabbed Xiao Fengming's hand tightly, with strong desire in her eyes: "Your Majesty, I want to see my father, I want to see him..."

Xiao Fengming looked at her face that seemed to be restored to life in an instant, and his heart became more and more sad. He knew that she had returned to her former glory.

He looked into her eyes and nodded slowly: "Okay, I will definitely take you back to your hometown to see your father."

Yanqiu smiled, and tears rolled down her eyes: "Your Majesty, I am not Yanqiu. My name is Liu Niang. I am the daughter of the old Liu family who fishes near Qinghe Town. Liu Niang... Your Majesty... I..."

"I know, and I forgive you." Xiao Fengming's voice was soft and quiet. Yanqiu gradually closed her eyes and exhaled her last breath: "Your Majesty, if I die, send my ashes home. I want Go home, Xiaoyuer wants to go home..."

The hand holding him slowly loosened up, and the flickering candle suddenly went out, as if she was mourning the loss of a young life.

Xiao Fengming slowly smoothed the ups and downs between her eyebrows, straightened her face, wiped away the tears on her face, and whispered: "Xiao Yu'er will go home."

He stood up and called the imperial guards waiting outside the tent. He took one last look at the silent Yanqiu and said slowly: "Find her family and give her a grand burial!"

As he spoke, he stepped out of the imperial tent, looked up at the city wall standing in the dark night, and said decisively: "Ask three thousand elite soldiers to follow me out of the city!"

The imperial guards on the left and right were all surprised and looked at him.

Xiao Fengming took a deep breath, turned around and fetched the horse, and said coldly: "Prince Jing is plotting a rebellion in the palace. He wants to escape through a secret passage. Follow me to capture the rebel!"
