Chapter 5 The Third World
Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and tomorrow was the time to escort the Empress to the sacrificial ceremony.Luo Shangyi was sitting at home boredly flipping through some military books on Yuan's bookshelf.But suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"What's the matter?"
"Report to the General, Master Qi, Minister of the Ministry of War, came to see the General." Luo Shangyi was a little confused by the communication from the servant outside the door. He searched Yuanshen's memory, but found that Yuanshen had no communication with the Minister of the Ministry of War. Why are you so nice and come here suddenly to ask for a meeting?
"Master Qi, please wait in the main hall, I will go there right away."
After adjusting her clothes, Luo Shangyi slowly walked to the main hall.There, there was already a person sitting there, dressed in ordinary clothes, it seemed that it was the so-called Lord Qi.
"Master Shang Shu came here, which made Shang Yi a little panic. I just don't know what the purpose of Master Shang Shu's coming?" Luo Shangyi looked at the unexpected visitor with his signature smile.
"The general is serious. The general is the pillar of the country. I really admire the general. Now I have something important to discuss with the general. I also ask the general to screen out irrelevant people." Lord Qi said quite solemnly.
Luo Shangyi was also aroused by this action, so he waved his hand, and the maids and servants who were serving around him retreated knowingly.
"So, can Lord Qi say it?"
"Great general, the minister will be blunt. The empress is extremely stupid now, and her cruelty is becoming more and more serious. The ministers in the court are suffering unspeakably, and the people of the world are also full of resentment. Therefore, the minister and several colleagues have already discussed it and are going to meet tomorrow. The assassination of the empress at the sacrificial ceremony did not ask the general to form an alliance with us, but I hope that when the assassination is performed tomorrow, the general will be merciful, so that the people we send can successfully kill the empress.
There is no need for the general to refuse in a hurry. There is a jade pendant here, and the general will know what to do tomorrow when he looks at it. "
As soon as the words fell, Master Qi took out a whole body of white jade pendant from his bosom, and the word "Luo" was engraved on it. Almost instantly, Luo Shangyi remembered the origin of this jade pendant.Seeing Luo Shangyi's expression, Lord Qi knew that his purpose of coming this time had been achieved, he reached out and put the jade pendant on the table, and pushed it towards Luo Shangyi, and Lord Qi got up to leave.
It took a long time before Luo Shangyi picked up the jade pendant, with a hint of helplessness on his brows.This jade pendant was worn by the original body's father, and it was a family heirloom.Before, because Luo's father was framed and hunted down, fortunately he was rescued by a benefactor, so he gave this jade pendant as a gift, and said that if he encountered any troubles in the future, he would come with this jade pendant. Will definitely help it achieve.
What puzzled Luo Shangyi was that this jade pendant fell into Master Qi's hands, so what should he do tomorrow?
No matter how entangled Luo Shangyi was, it was finally time to set off.Looking at Xu Yeli's crimson clothes and black clothes from afar, the emperor's crown is a rare majesty. Everyone hurriedly bowed down when they saw it. Xu Yeli looked at Luo Shangyi who was not far away, and said, "General, Get in the car with me."
Luo Shangyi was startled, "Yes."
After getting into the carriage, Luo Shangyi didn't dare to look directly at the empress sitting beside her, so she could only stare at the scenery outside the window. Unexpectedly, just after leaving the capital, Luo Shangyi suddenly felt a heavy weight on her shoulders. Luo Shangyi's whole body froze with the unique smell of incense.
Turning her head mechanically, Xu Yeli's stunning face was close at hand, and when Luo Shangyi turned her head, Xu Yeli's breath lightly sprinkled on the side of her face, exhaling like blue.For some reason, Luo Shangyi's heart suddenly "plopped" and his face turned red.
Because the place Xu Yeli was leaning on was relatively close to his heart, Luo Shangyi was afraid that his too intense heartbeat would wake Xu Yeli up, so he took a few deep breaths, but still couldn't help but look at Xu Yeli secretly.
Why didn't I realize that the empress looked so good when she was asleep?Slightly pursed lips, and slightly trembling eyelashes from time to time, the two are so close now that even the fine fluff on the smooth forehead can be clearly seen.
I don't know how long I watched it, but Luo Shangyi suddenly came back to his senses, and his face suddenly turned red.Thinking of myself staring at the empress like a pervert just now, I wish I could get into the cracks in the ground.It's not that I haven't seen a beautiful fairy in the sky, but my behavior today is really strange. Luo Shangyi took a deep breath, hurriedly pretended nothing happened, and turned her head out of the window, but the erratic gaze in her eyes revealed her The restlessness in my heart.
The flustered Luo Shangyi naturally didn't notice the slight smile at the corner of the empress's mouth leaning on her. In fact, Xu Yeli was not asleep at all. She just wanted to tease the general. As she expected, the general But very innocent.
Also, that drumming heartbeat is really hard to hide. Besides, just now, she has always felt that the general's eyes are sticking to her face. If she continues to look at it like this, she is afraid that she will soon be unable to hold back. up.
Xu Yeli was secretly happy there, but suddenly remembered what the dark guard reported to him last night, and immediately rushed away the joy in his heart.Although she knew that what the dark guard said must be true, she still didn't want to believe it.I hope, I hope the general will not make a decision that disappoints her, otherwise she doesn't mind letting all the people in this world bear her extra anger.
Thinking like this, coupled with the calm breath from Luo Shangyi around him, Xu Yeli really just fell asleep like this.I don't know how long it took before she was woken up by Luo Shangyi, "Your Majesty, the sacrificial place has arrived, please drive your Majesty."
"General, do you think there will be assassins in this sacrifice?" Xu Yeli asked lightly.
"Your Majesty, of course not." Although Luo Shangyi answered quickly, Xu Yeli's heart sank when he saw Luo Shangyi's dodging eyes. Did the general finally decide to betray him?If it is true, then she will not be soft.Anyone who betrays her will be killed without mercy.
Xu Yeli said thoughtfully, "That's good", then turned around and walked to the sacrificial place first. The Minister of Rites led the way, and it happened to be noon, when the sun was at its peak. It is also an auspicious time for offering sacrifices.
Standing among the officials, Luo Shangyi looked at the majestic Empress above the altar, and felt a little crazy.And the accident happened suddenly. Just when Xu Yeli inserted a stick of incense into the incense altar, a little eunuch next to him suddenly jumped out with a knife. Fortunately, Xu Yeli was prepared and avoided it in advance took that knife.
Luo Shangyi's heart sank, he didn't care about anything, and forcibly ran towards Xu Yeli's direction.But helpless, because the officials were frightened, the scene was extremely chaotic, and it seemed that someone had deliberately arranged it, so it was difficult for Luo Shangyi to move forward.
But in Xu Yeli's eyes, Luo Shangyi did not want to come, because Luo Shangyi betrayed her.For a moment, Xu Yeli was a little lost. After all, her trust was still betrayed.However, at this moment, there was a sword stabbing towards this side behind him, and because Xu Yeli was facing away, although he saw it, he had no time to react.
Just when she thought she was really going to die, Luo Shangyi finally rushed to the Temple of Heaven, but she could only block the cold sharp blade with her flesh and blood.
Feeling the coolness piercing into the body, Luo Shangyi was so painful that he could hardly speak, Xu Yeli looked at Luo Shangyi in his arms, the blood gushing from his shoulders, but his heart was full of joy.Fortunately, Luo Shangyi finally saved her.With a wave of Xu Yeli's right hand, many soldiers suddenly ran out from the surrounding area, surrounding all the ministers in the center, and even the dozen or so assassins who came out were taken down.
"Luo Shangyi, why did you save me?" Xu Yeli asked in a daze.
"Your Majesty, I said that I will protect you, and I will definitely protect you." Luo Shangyi said, holding back the pain, and then fainted from the unbearable. Before consciousness disappeared, Luo Shangyi felt that This time, I have saved Xu Yeli's life, and I have expressed my loyalty. I think I should have more affection, otherwise this time I will be hurt in vain.
Seeing Luo Shangyi who lost consciousness in his arms, Xu Yeli's face darkened, and he called the imperial physician to come, "Emperor physician, you must heal the general's injury, otherwise I will have the entire imperial hospital buried with him."
Later, Xu Yeli remembered that there were still these ministers, a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, Xu Yeli took a few steps forward, and said in a cold voice, "Come here, arrest the ministers of the Ministry of Rites and the Minister of the Ministry of War, and punish them." Nine tribes. The rest of the ministers each received [-] boards and were punished for one month."
Regardless of howling ghosts and wolves below, Xu Yeli lovingly hugged Luo Shangyi and walked over to the carriage beside her.She won't let go of this person. Last night, when the secret guard told her that the Minister of the Ministry of War took the family heirlooms of the Luo family and asked General Luo to give up protecting her, she lost confidence. He would really betray his father's will and come to save her.
Since entering the palace, no one has ever treated her so well, so no matter what, she has to leave Luo Shangyi behind.Even if she hates her.
When Luo Shangyi wakes up, all he sees are incomparably extravagant decorations, whether it's the emerald screen, the silk quilt, or the huge luminous pearl on the roof, they are all priceless items.But where is he?
Just when Luo Shangyi was looking around blankly, Xu Yeli walked in suddenly, Luo Shangyi was about to stand up and salute subconsciously, but the wound was involved, "Hiss", Luo Shangyi couldn't help taking a breath, this time This time is really a great contribution. You must know that in Jiuchongtian before, who dared to provoke her, and now the next mortal will be seriously injured. It is not easy to do anything these days.
"A Luo, don't move. I'll help you with anything you want." Xu Yeli said softly.
However, Luo Shangyi petrified on the spot, telling her that this gentle young lady is not the domineering and cruel empress before, why is there such a big gap all of a sudden.She was a little apprehensive.
"A Luo? Your Majesty, are you calling me?"
"Yeah, I'm calling you." Xu Yeli said with a smile, while talking, he also picked up the medicine bowl beside him.
Hearing that Xu Yeli didn't even say "Zhen", Luo Shangyi was completely dumbfounded, this situation is a bit out of control.
