C249 Unlucky

After Lv Yihao removed the seal on the imperial edict, when he saw that the edict was yellow paper and was on behalf of the Son of Heaven, he respectfully placed it on top of the Desk. Then, together with everyone present, he kneeled and bowed towards the south, where the Emperor was. After the ceremony, Lv Yihao held out the imperial edict and read it out to everyone present. The contents of the edict were the changes made by the young emperor.

Everyone was excited, Lv Yihao said, "Now, Second Vicious has kidnapped the empress dowager and little emperor to order the world, and his fake life is being passed down, what a worrisome …"

Yue Pengju said: "We have already listened to my wife's suggestion and intercepted all the mailboxes that were used to travel far away from Pingjiang."

Lv Yihao was overjoyed: "Well done, let's do this. From today onwards, all the documents that come to and from the healthy Zhenjiang will be intercepted." He turned to Yue Pengju and asked, "Where is your wife now?"

Yue Pengju sighed, "To be honest, my wife Hua Shi brought me back to the capital to see the empress dowager. I don't know where we are now." Once his wife had left, he spent his days worrying about her safety and trying to think of a way to rescue her.

All the generals were rushing to withdraw their families from the city after the military mutiny to avoid any worries later. Unexpectedly, Yue Pengju's wife had already left the capital and returned back to his family.

Han Zhongliang said, "If that's the case, then wouldn't the second bane have taken Yue Wu's son as hostage?"

Yue Pengju only said: "The reason Madam brought me back is to find out more about the situation. I just do not know when she will be able to come out."

Lv Yihao was also extremely anxious, "It's a pity that we're separated from the outside world and need to send someone to scout for information, but we don't have any suitable person for that."

Yue Pengju then pointed to the people around him and said: "This is a road trip to meet Scholar Ma Su, in times of crisis, I am willing to serve the nation."

Lv Yihao had seen Ma Su at Yue Pengju's side from the start. Because the situation was urgent and he did not have time to introduce the situation, he only saw that Ma Su was gentle and refined, with the bearing of a scholar.

Ma Su had been hiding his name so everyone naturally didn't recognize him. Furthermore, he had been teasing Jin Wushu with the King Qin in the middle of his stay in Jinguo and had been disguising himself as well. His identity was extremely secretive.

Ma Su bowed respectfully, neither servile nor overbearing: "I am a scholar, and I am not ranked number one in the Imperial examinations. Now, I have a chance to repay you. I have an old friend in Miao Fu's army, so I can go and inquire about the situation, and take action whenever the opportunity arises. "

Lv Yihao said: "I'm afraid that things won't go as planned."

Ma Su said emotionally, "A great man should be born into the world, and should gain the honorary title of wife. Even if he were to be killed, he should still be remembered."

Just as Lv Yihao was worrying that there was no one else to use, he saw this and immediately said: "If that's the case, you can set out immediately. He immediately ordered Duke Xu to bring an empty official notice, and filled in Ma Su's name on the spot, and praised him to be brave enough to come forward.

Ma Su took the official document, bowed to everyone, and then looked at Yue Pengju, nodded, and immediately departed.

As for Hua Rong, it was already close to evening by the time she got home.

She had closed the door long ago, so the servants naturally did not know the importance of the mutiny. According to the instructions, she had already gone to rest. She randomly ate a bowl of rice and returned to her bedroom, feeling even more lonely. Yesterday, he had parted with Penga, but today, he had abandoned his son and even became alone.

She was worried for her son. Although she was very confident, she was also afraid that if Miao Liu went insane, what would happen to her son's safety? After tossing and turning, he was unable to fall asleep.

After a while, there was a knock on the door and three light clicks.

She was shocked, this was the King Qin's signal.

She was originally lying down in harmony with her clothes, as she immediately got up and opened the door. Under the cold night sky, King Qin came in with his large saber that weighed thirty-six kilograms like a leopard cat. He then covered her mouth like he was hugging a child, carried her and ran.

Hua Rong's mouth was covered by his hands, and she could not shout for fear of alerting the others. With just a few jumps, King Qin was still able to jump over the wall and carry her onto his good horse, whipping out of here.

She was about to turn back, but was stopped by his big hand, causing her to feel a faint pain. Hua Rong anxiously asked: "Qin Shangcheng, what are you doing?"

He still did not answer, and only carried her as he flew. It wasn't until he ran more than ten kilometers away, and just as he reined his horse back, she immediately turned and anxiously asked. "Qin Shangcheng, what are you doing …"

When King Qin lowered her head, it was impossible to see his clearly in the dark night. She raised her head to ask, but just as he lowered his head, his lower jaw almost touched her lips. She felt a burst of pain and was about to speak, but he had to raise his head as well. Even though it was night, Hua Rong was still shocked. She turned to the side and almost fell off her horse.

King Qin put his arm around her waist and said in a muffled voice, "Little girl, stay still and don't move."

She didn't care about the unexpected and simply said, "Quickly send me back. I'm leaving the city tomorrow morning. If Miao Liu and the others find out that I'm running away, it'll actually be bad …"

He held her tightly, feeling uneasy for some reason. Seeing that she was struggling so fiercely, he simply hugged her and, ignoring her struggles, urged her horse on again. They only stopped when they reached a house in front of them.

This was an extremely quiet and secluded manor. There were no guards or servants around, and they were hiding in the depths of the desolate forest. It was lonely and desolate. Due to the cold weather, it was near the end of the year, making the atmosphere even colder.

King Qin got off the horse and carried her. He did not walk towards the main entrance and climbed over the wall as usual.

The moment she landed, Hua Rong broke free from his embrace and said with slight anger, "Qin Shangcheng, I want to go back."

King Qin completely ignored her anger. She pulled her into the house, closed the door, lit the lamp and sat on the chair while pressing her down. Then she said, "Girl, you can't go back."

"Why?"

"I've been having nightmares these past few days. I was afraid something bad might happen to you, so I forbid you to go back."

Did he kidnap her just because she was having a nightmare? Hua Rong was incredulous. Although she was slightly angry, she was touched and only said: "I have already entered the palace to see the empress dowager. I will leave openly tomorrow morning.

King Qin still shook his head: "I keep having the feeling that things won't be this simple. If Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan are idiots like them, how could they so easily transform into soldiers? "

This was also what Hua Rong was curious about. Today, she was working together with Di Ruwen on the court assembly, but she felt that Miao Liu and the other two's responses were mediocre, so she could not come up with any proper ideas. However, after hearing about the empress dowager's situation, she felt that the two of them had very clever plans, and it did not seem like it was done by the two of them.

She thought for a moment and said to herself, "Could it be that there are other forces behind these two people? But, who could it be? "

"I don't know either. However, you will be leaving the city tomorrow, and nothing will happen to you today. I will stay here tonight. Tomorrow, I will personally escort you out of the city. "

"No, if they were watching me, I'd be out all night."

"If they want to kill you, isn't it dangerous for you to stay?"

Hua Rong's heart skipped a beat as she remembered what she wrote in her collar. Not only would Zhao Deji, the empress dowager, Tian Wei, and the others be doomed, the world would also be in chaos if an accident happened. The more she thought about it, the more worried she became.

The candles were bright as King Qin stood beside her. Only then did he realise that she was wearing a life wife crown, and that there was only a casual layer of Big Kew on the outside. Originally, Hua Rong was also paying attention, afraid that something bad might happen, so he wore the crown clothes and lied down, in case there was a change in the situation, he could immediately get up and protect the crown.

Under the candlelight, King Qin saw that she had completely recovered from the illness and wore such luxurious and graceful clothes, making his look even more elegant and dignified. He looked at his for a while, and his heart was in turmoil. The young girl from before was now a completely mature and charming woman. At his prime, he blossomed with the most magnificent and flourishing grace of a woman.

He coughed and forced himself to calm down. "Little girl, why are you dressed like this?"

Hua Rong hesitated for a moment. Originally, she didn't want to hide anything from him, but crown was no small matter. Between cripples, it was a great disaster. Those who knew of it would not only have no benefits, it would instead lead to a disaster.

This was also the reason why she guaranteed not even Yue Pengju told her about it in front of the empress dowager. After telling her husband, she had actually prepared a sneak attack for him. Even she herself didn't want to know who he was.

King Qin saw that she was hesitating and did not say a word, but her expression was very gentle, as if she was not deliberately hiding anything from him. Under the candlelight, one could see her eyebrows slightly raised. They were so soft and light like smoke, like the first willow leaf that had just sprouted on a spring day. In this more than a year since she was injured, he had never paid attention to her appearance again. The memory of pale lips, deep-set eye sockets, skinny withered, it was unknown when it all disappeared. Or perhaps it was because of the long term nourishment from the tiger's bones of the Lingzhi. Her beauty was even more tender than before, but under the dignified crown, her white neck revealed such a soft section, like a slender swan.

His throat went dry as he said, "Little girl …"

She suddenly took off the Big Kew on her body, revealing the entire body of the crown.

King Qin was stunned, she started to take off his crown again.

What is this girl doing?

He looked at the soft white hands that were reaching out. The way he took off his clothes was dignified and gentle. There was nothing ungraceful about it. On the contrary, it seemed even more cautious.

Very quickly, the crown s embroidered by Qing Luo Zhai were placed on the table. Their embroidery was exquisite, their materials were exquisite, and they were adorned with gold and silver silk. It was extremely luxurious. Seeing that she had taken off her clothes, King Qin's throat tightened.

It wasn't that he hadn't seen women undress before; on the contrary, he had seen many women undress. However, he had never seen her take off her clothes.

Back on the island, she had been afraid of his intrusion. Every night, she slept in her neat clothes, trembling in fear as if her clothes were the most powerful form of protection. Therefore, every time they were full of joy, he would have to personally take off her clothes forcibly. Even after so many months, she was still the same, unwilling to let him take off his clothes.

It was at this moment that he suddenly thought back to ten years ago, when he had forced her into a corner. Her voice was like the music of heaven. There were times when she had brought him incomparable joy and enjoyment, and so, she had become the peak of her heart, never forgetting, in a dream for ten years.

Such a soft and crystal clear carcass flashed in front of his eyes as if it had been electrocuted. His mouth was dry and his entire body felt like it was about to burst into flames.

Actually, even though the crown was gone, Hua Rong was still wearing the tight-fitting black clothes that she wore at night, which she had prepared beforehand in order to deal with any unexpected accidents. At this moment, under this tight-fitting clothing, one could see a gentle chest slightly rising and falling, a waist so soft, a body so agile, and a pair of calfskin boots so full of spirit. The lesser arch s and arrows hanging from her waist looked even more valiant.
