The world is indeed unpredictable, not to mention whether people's hearts are unpredictable. The unpredictable future alone makes people often lament that fate is a wonderful thing. Just like the military general of the distant country at this time, he has never seen it before.
I thought that one day I would interact with the so-called Jianghu people, and I still feel confused and weird.
"Sir General, the medicine is gone again!" In the messy hut, the young maid pushed open the medicine jar angrily. Only a few medicine dregs rolled out of the overturned medicine jar, and nothing else.
"Is the condition of Concubine Jing still not improving?" Ou Suiliang was not annoyed by the maid's complaint. He glanced at the monastery opposite sadly and sighed slightly, "There are too many spies outside, and it's not safe to even send people to get medicine."
.In the past few days, I have noticed that there are more people walking around pretending to be ordinary people. It seems that the other party has stepped up their search efforts. In this case, we cannot go out rashly, otherwise it will only bring danger. Yu Che, tell Su
Don't worry, Mrs. Yan, I will find an opportunity to go to the drug store in person tonight and I will bring the medicine back no matter what."
The solemn promise failed to make Yu Che feel at ease. Instead, it aroused the fear that he had finally suppressed. He moved closer to Ou Suiliang and still couldn't find a sense of security. He sat down with a frown on his chin, Yu Che wagging his fingers on the table without a trace.
Circled meaningfully: "I don't know what happened to the young lady and your highness. When the young lady left, she specifically asked me to take good care of the concubine. It's a good time. I will definitely lose my skin when the young lady comes back."
"How can that girl be so powerful? I usually see her being generous and steady, and being very polite to others, but I didn't know that she would also punish my servants harshly."
"Bah, bah, bah, who said Miss is harsh?" Yu Che rolled his eyes, "Miss never treats servants harshly. She always leaves me a portion of any delicious food. She is the best and kindest master in the world.
I said that losing my skin was not the reason why I was punished by the lady. It would be better if the lady punished me. At least I would feel more at ease. Do you know, Mr. General, the scariest thing about my lady is that she neither hits nor scolds her. Every time
When I make a mistake, the lady always looks at me quietly, until she sees me, she feels so sorry that she doesn’t want to slap myself. The lady’s eyes are like...like something, looking at those eyes makes me feel that I have made such a big mistake.
They are all guilty of heinous crimes."
A joke turned into a long talk, Ou Suiliang was helpless, he knew that Yu Che was too depressed.
After parting ways with Zhan Ting and Qiao Qingxu, he took Concubine Jing and others all the way out of the Imperial Capital. He originally thought it would be safer to leave the Imperial Capital, but unexpectedly, the people who were chasing him became more aggressive from covert to overt, almost at the cost of some attempts.
Kill them. He had no choice but to hide in a mansion in a sparsely populated village on the outskirts of the imperial capital. Even so, he still had to be extremely wary of enemies who might kill him at any moment. Most of the hundreds of elite soldiers selected from the forbidden army camp
They all died in the hands of the enemy, and now there are only a few people left to protect the concubine with him. Sadly, he doesn't even know who the enemy is.
Or maybe, he knew, but just didn't want to admit it.
"It's almost noon, I don't know if Concubine Jing is awake yet..." Yu Che stretched out and jumped off the stool, rummaged through the bamboo basket for a long time, raised his head and frowned, "There's no meat, no eggs, it seems like it's another day today.
It’s time to eat plain porridge and vegetables. Such a clear soup is tasteless. It’s surprising that Concubine Jing can feel better.”
Ou Suiliang pretended not to hear Yu Che's petty complaints and silently helped clear the dishes. As soon as he scooped out the rice from the jar, he heard a scream coming from the opposite room. From the sound, it seemed to be Jin Zhaoyi.
Decades of battlefield career have given Ou Suiliang extremely fast reflexes. Before Yu Che could recover from his surprise, the head of the generals of the Yao Kingdom flew towards the monastery where Concubine Jing lived, his clothes rolled up.
Before the wind calmed down, people were already banging on the door and entering.
The tragic scene in the front hall made Ou Suiliang shudder, and at the same time he was extremely heartbroken - the six men he carefully selected and brought from the Forbidden Army camp, and the only remaining six men who had survived several battles, were now lying on the cold ground.
They were motionless, some had their eyes closed, and some were staring straight at the roof with their sudden bloodshot eyes.
However, he knew that he had no time to feel sad. Concubine Jing was sleeping in the innermost room of the monastery. He had to stop the assailant before he could kill him and protect Concubine Jing at all costs. Fortunately, the murderer was not familiar with the layout of the rooms and pushed through three rooms in a row.
They couldn't find the target in the house. Just when they were about to open the fourth door, Ou Suiliang attacked with murderous intent and raised his sword.
There was a crisp sound, and the weapons exchanged in mid-air vibrated violently and made a harsh buzz. Ou Suiliang and the attacker were not much better, and they each took a few steps back before stopping.
"It's you?!" Ou Suiliang was shocked when he saw his opponent's face clearly. He ignored the surge of energy and blood in his internal organs and blurted out the unfamiliar name, "Su Jinyan!"
It might be difficult for an ordinary guard servant to remember it, but Su Jinyan is different, not only because of his stunning appearance from a foreign race, and the vague and ambiguous relationship between him and the fifth prince Yi Chenxuan, but also because Ou Suiliang has already seen that this
The mysterious young man has considerable strength, and there are only a handful of people in the palace who can defeat Su Jinyan in a single fight.
The arm holding the sword felt numb. Ou Suiliang calmly put his hand behind his back and kept flexing and stretching it, thinking something bad in his heart.
The blow just now didn't seem to cause any harm to Su Jinyan, but Ou Suiliang was different. Half of his arms were almost unconscious, and the blood and energy tumbling in his chest could only be suppressed by internal force. This shows the strength between him and Su Jinyan.
The disparity - a general who roams the battlefield and scolds Fang Qiu is not a master. For someone like Su Jinyan, who has practiced martial arts since childhood and specializes in killing skills, it is easy to get rid of this obstacle.
Concubine Jing's room was only two steps away from Su Jinyan. Ou Suiliang stared at the expressionless blue-eyed man, not daring to move there at all, for fear that Su Jinyan would notice that Concubine Jing was not far away. However, he
He also understood that the time he could delay was limited, so he had to hope that Su Yan, who was taking care of her in the room, could sense the danger and find a way to escape with Concubine Jing.
"So, the person who has been chasing the seventh prince and the concubine is really the fifth prince?" Changing his hand to hold the sword tightly, Ou Suiliang tried to find something to say to delay it, "Fortunately, the emperor always praised the fifth prince for being humble, polite and knowing the rules.
, I didn’t expect him to do such a thing as fratricide, it’s really disappointing.”
Su Jinyan didn't take Ou Suiliang seriously at all. She just raised her eyelids when he asked the question, without any intention of answering. No one could read the thoughts and feelings hidden in those flawless jade-like green eyes.
He raised his hand slightly, pointed the cold sword tip at Ou Suiliang, and said in a bland tone: "Get out of the way."
"If the fifth prince wants to compete for the throne, just go and fight with the seventh prince. Why bother innocent people? Concubine Jing never participates in harem fights and has no ambition to rely on mother to value her son. Can't even let her go?
?"
Seeing Ou Suiliang standing motionless, Su Jinyan subconsciously looked at the door behind him, and turned her eyes back, even more violent than before: "If you don't want to regret it, just get out of the way. I don't have time to talk nonsense with you."
It seems that even procrastination is no longer an option.
Occasionally, I smiled bitterly in my conscience. I never thought that I would die in the hands of a male favorite after serving in the army for most of my life. Will His Majesty cry or laugh when I think about it someday? Maybe he can’t laugh. You are competing for the two most favored sons.
They rob each other and kill each other. In the end, there is no winner. As the king of a country, Yaohuang seems to be the most powerful in the world, but in fact he is always depressed. There are not many happy things in this life. If anything... that is, I saw it in person that year.
As I saw, in the heavy snow, Concubine Jing smiled and poured a glass of home-brewed sake for Emperor Yao. Emperor Yao smiled so comfortably and happily.
He took a deep breath and exhaled it slowly, his numb and numb right arm stretched out straight, Ou Suiliang's eyes were firm and his voice was like a bell.
"Unless I die, no one will be allowed to harm Concubine Jing!"
Emperors plotted, the country was in turmoil, a world war broke out, several families were left alone, and tens of thousands of families were displaced.
He could not calm the worries of the people in the world, but at least he could do his best to protect the monarch and friend whom he had respected, loyal, and trusted all his life, risking his life to protect the woman whom Emperor Yao loved most in his life until his death.
The blade of the sword was slightly deflected, and Su Jinyan seemed to hesitate for a moment when he swung it, so that although the first sword was extremely fast, it did not hurt Ou Suiliang at all. Ou Suiliang, who was lucky enough to escape the blow, immediately counterattacked, and the sharp blade went straight towards Gao Slim.
The shadow flew away, but before he could exert any force, a sudden shout attracted the attention of the two people who were fighting.
"Wrong, General, it's not him!"
"Jin Zhaoyi, what are you...?" Looking at Jin Zhaoyi who rushed to the center of the two of them and blocked Su Jinyan, Ou Suiliang took a breath and hurriedly looked towards the imperial concubine's room where the door was open.
There were several glaring blood stains on the floor and walls of the room. What was inconsistent with the messy scene was that a middle-aged woman was sleeping peacefully on the bed, and it was Concubine Jing.
Hasn't Su Jinyan not found the concubine's room yet? Whose are those blood stains? Who committed the killing in the room? Are there other assassins besides Su Jinyan? But why did Jin Zhaoyi jump out to protect Su Jinyan?
A series of questions will be answered in the next moment.
"He is here to help you." A figure walked out from behind the door. He had plain clothes and black hair. His indifferent tone was incompatible with the tense atmosphere and his pure voice sounded very familiar. The man was wearing a big bamboo hat.
Unable to see his face, he flicked his slender wrist and shook away the blood beads with his bloody soft sword. When he spoke again, he was talking to Su Jinyan: "Why kill someone who has nothing to do with you? I'm not here to clean up the mess for you."
Su Jinyan obviously knew that person, and was indifferent to the boring accusations. She had already put the sword back into its sheath, and frowned slightly: "They were the ones who attacked me first."
"We all know that you are Yi Chenxuan's subordinate, how can we not be on guard? These killers are not with you, so they will naturally take action. Also, there are two people sent by Yi Chenxuan outside the village to monitor your actions. I have already
Get rid of it first."
The conversation between the two was about one thing after another. Ou Suiliang was completely confused. Seeing that they had no intention of continuing, he rushed into the house and went straight to Concubine Jing's bedside. In addition to the mysterious man, there was also a pale-faced person in the house.
Although Suyan was frightened by the two corpses on the ground, she still suppressed her fear as much as possible and stayed by Jingfei's side. When she saw Ou Suiliang coming over, she sobbed and her whole body trembled violently.
When it comes to being strong and calm, Suyan is not as good as Jin Zhaoyi. Although Ou Suiliang feels pity for her, a weak woman raised in the palace, who has to encounter such dangers, at the moment, he can only harden his heart and ask her to put away her weakness and take good care of the concubine. Sure.
After the concubine Jing was fine, Ou Suiliang turned around and looked at the two uninvited guests, his vigilance not lessened: "Should you two report their respective origins?"
"It's just a matter of loyalty when entrusted by others." The mysterious man took off his bamboo hat and stood side by side with Su Jinyan who walked into the room. For a moment, Ou Suiliang was stunned, and finally understood why he felt that the man's voice sounded familiar.
The tall and thin body is well-proportioned and slender, the fair skin has its own elegance, the delicate eyebrows are picturesque, and the beauty is enough to make Su Yan and Jin Zhaoyi eclipsed; the most peculiar thing is the eyes, which are green and deep, as if they accidentally
I'm trapped in it and can't extricate myself.
The appearance, the voice, everything is like another Su Jinyan.
If Bai Qige were present at this time, she would definitely call out that person's name without hesitation, Su Buqi.
