Suddenly, a low and cold voice came from outside the courtyard, the cool air whizzing into her ears.
"This is the location of the Tianmo Kingdom spy, Marquis of Tong City, why are you here? Heh, isn't this the King Xiao's Concubine? I really did not think that you would also appear here. Could it be that the history of the Yu Clan was in private with the Tianmo Kingdom and had sold out our Houqing Kingdom? You are also a spy? "
Yu Yan quickly turned her head and saw the Zhao Taizhu, escorted by dozens of fully armored guards, walking in with large strides. Her hawk-like eyes stared fixedly at her and Yun Qin.
"Don't slander me! This marquis came here to track a spy and just found this place. " Yun Qin roared, he waved his sword and pointed it at Zhao Dajie.
"A spy? In my opinion, the Tong Cheng Marquis is the real spy. This is the secret contact point for Qing Jing City after Tianmo Kingdom spies stung me. Come, search! "
Zhao Taizhu sneered and waved his hand. The guards pounced like wolves and tigers, crashed into the duke of Tong City, rushed into the room, rummaged through the boxes, and after a short while, found a few letters. They hurriedly held them out in front of Zhao Taizhu.
"Sir, these letters were found."
Zhao Taizhu picked up one of the letters, casually flipped through it, held it high and waved it in his hand, saying loudly:
"The duke of Tong City's calligraphy can be recognized by all the civil and military officials of the imperial court. Dragon and wind dance together, truly a part of the text." These are all communications between you and the Tianmo Kingdom. What else do you have to say for yourself? Men, capture the Tong Cheng Marquis and Princess.
"Zhao Taizhu, this is a trap, you cannot capture Yun Qin."
Yu Yan suddenly understood why Yulixiao did not kill Jin Fu and instead sent him to the government. Wouldn't that expose this small courtyard? So it was precisely what he wanted Yu Tianqi to do to investigate this small courtyard. Yulixiao was borrowing a knife to kill people, deliberately luring the Zhao Taizhu to kidnap people. If Yu Tianqi were to kill Yun Qin, the Yun Family would definitely rebel. However, if Yu Tianqi did not kill Yun Qin, this grave crime of colluding with the enemy would not be able to be explained to the other ministers …
She had come today to save Lady Xu, but she didn't expect to run into such a murderous scene! Could it be that the heavens were truly merciful, and could not bear to watch his and Yun Qin leave each other alive? You want them to die here?
The archers had drawn their bowstrings, and the arrows were about to leave the bowstring. The entire courtyard was filled with a murderous aura.
"Little Qing Yu, I cannot bear the crime of colluding with the enemy. If I fall into their hands, they will definitely convict me. "I'm afraid that I won't be able to protect you today, so you should return to your room. Don't come out." Yun Qin pulled her hand and turned to look at her.
Yu Yan also understood that whether or not she would surrender, Zhao Taizhu would definitely kill Yun Qin today.
The matter of the medicine merchant, Jin Fu, had involved six officials, all of them were related to the Zhao Taizhu, especially his own nephew who he valued greatly. Yun Qin was a vengeful and righteous person. He would definitely impeach these six people in the imperial court. And Zhao Taizhu, was a cruel and merciless person, he could not allow anyone to divide his power and influence. Therefore, no matter if it was Yulixiao or Yun Qin today, they were both his enemies and he would not give up this great opportunity to remove his political enemies.
See, a country is in disarray, destroyed by these infighting villains.
could do nothing about it. Now that Yulixiao had suddenly returned, it made the snow even harder for him to get on top of it. He had originally wanted to rope Yun Qin in, but how could Yulixiao be stronger than him?
Yu Yan felt sad for her. Fortunately, she was a girl, if she was a man and was depressed, she would be like the upright Xu Xiusheng. She would be depressed and sick, and would leave early.
"Be good and go in." Yun Qin stretched out his hand and shook Yu Yan's hand with force.
He was not used to it, he did not know how to scheme to kill others. He wholeheartedly wanted to contribute greatly and brought Yu Yan away, thus, he married the princess. Hence, he wholeheartedly wanted to find Yulixiao's true appearance to exchange for Yu Yan's freedom. But in reality, he had become the sacrifice of these people!
"Yun Qin, you can't beat me alone, don't fight me, I'll go beg the emperor, the King Xiao, the princess, the empress dowager …" Yu Yan whispered. Her entire body was cold as she forcefully pulled on Yue Yang's fingers, preventing him from moving forward. She was too familiar with the punishment system in Houqing Kingdom. No matter who it was, once they were caught, it didn't matter if they were general Wang Hou, or even high ranking officials. Hadn't her father been treated so cruelly in the past? The blood had tormented her so far in the night.
Yun Qin laughed, held his sword horizontally across his chest and pushed Yu Yan back into the small hut with one hand as he said in a low voice, "I don't want you to beg anyone for me, I can't bring you away. Watching you suffer day and night is already a lifetime of regret. If I let you bow your head and beg for mercy for me, I will rather die than live. Today, I have to fight even if I can't defeat him. I never thought that the imperial court would be so dark. No wonder my father-in-law was harmed. Little Qing Yu, go in and hide, don't come out. "
Hearing his words, Yu Yan's heart ached. He quickly took two steps forward and extended both his arms in front of Yun Qin, shouting at Zhao Dagao, "Master Zhao, let me see the empress dowager. Yun Qin has wronged you, I can prove it."
"Yu Yan, you can't even prove your innocence, you are clearly partners with him. Since she doesn't retreat, treat it as a pair of lovebirds going to the underworld to accompany him. Kill!" Zhao Taizhu raised his hand and ordered coldly.
In a split-second, arrows as sharp as rain, shot towards Yu Yan and Yun Qin with all their might.
The sword in Yun Qin's hand danced like a net woven of cold light, blocking countless of arrows. More guards rushed forward and brandished their swords towards him.
Yu Yan could not be his burden, so she retreated towards the room. Just at this time, a few cold arrows suddenly shot out from the darkness, and ruthlessly and accurately pierced into Yu Yan's heart.
When Yun Qin turned around, he just so happened to see it. He was panic-stricken in his heart as he roared "Little Cyan Fish" and pounced over with a wave of his sword. An arrow pierced through his left shoulder ruthlessly as hot blood splashed like rain onto Yu Yan's dress.
"Yun Qin..." Yu Yan screamed as he turned around to support him before falling to the ground with him.
Several long blades closed in at this moment, pressing the two to the ground.
"Yun Qin, Yu Yan, the two of you had no choice but to surrender, you two must have suffered a lot." The Zhao Taizhu sneered as he slowly walked towards the two.
"Impudent! Who dares to behave so atrociously in This King's place!"
Yulixiao's hoarse voice suddenly came from behind the group, following that, a few dull sounds came out, turning his head to look, only to see a few archers heavily falling down the wall, and replacing them were a few tall black-clothed men.
"King Xiao." Zhao Taizhu's eyes lit up, he turned and looked at the person behind him.
The guard pushed Yulixiao's wheelchair, and appeared in front of everyone. His white hair was like snow, and the Nine-clawed Golden Dragon on his purple robe was piercing through the clouds with might. It seemed as if he could break through the layers of clouds at any time and tear the people in front of him into pieces.
"King Xiao said that this is your place?" Zhao Taizhu squinted his eyes and asked.
"Lord Zhao's bad at remembering. Five years ago, this street was my property." Yulixiao said coldly, his eyes looking towards Yu Yan.
Yu Yan immediately jumped up, pushed away the guard who was pointing a blade at her, and ran towards Yulixiao, jumping into his embrace without saying a word, and sat on his leg, saying repeatedly: "Prince, don't kill him, I beg you, don't kill him."
Yulixiao grabbed her lower jaw and gently pinched her small face, his cold gaze staring straight into her tear-filled eyes.
He didn't expect her to appear here! He did not expect that she would accidentally break into his scheme, which caused him to be thrown into disarray.
"Your Highness, you know that Yun Qin was wrongly accused, please let him go." Yu Yan frowned, her two hands hugging his shoulders tightly as she begged in a soft voice close to his ear.
"Why, hugging This King so intimately, don't you find This King ugly?" Yulixiao let out a cold laugh, which rendered Yu Yan speechless.
Yulixiao also didn't say much to her, and raised his eyes to look at Zhao Taizhu, saying hoarsely, "Zhao Taizhu wants to catch a spy, why must you make things difficult for this king's people?"
"Heh, King Xiao misunderstood. Because this official was ambushing a spy, I didn't expect the King Xiao's Concubine to suddenly appear here, so I caused a misunderstanding." Zhao Taizhu cupped his fists, and laughed: "It may be that the old relationship between the wangfei and Yun Qin has not been extinguished, so we came here to meet. Otherwise, how can the wangfei explain why she's here? This official still has to explain things to the empress dowager, so I ask for your forgiveness, your highness. "
"Is that so? Yu Yan, you say it yourself. " Yulixiao turned and said hoarsely while looking at Yu Yan.
Yu Yan's lips trembled, how could she dare say that she was looking for Yu Li Rui? She leaned forward a little and touched her forehead on Yu Li's face, which was covered in scars, and whispered: "I beg you, Prince, to let him go, I'm willing to serve as a slave or a dog as a slave. As long as you let him go, I'm willing to do anything, and I can't let him fall into someone else's hands …" "If you don't let me go, I'll go ask for Tian Qi …
"Are you threatening This King?" Yulixiao coldly asked as he pinched her waist with his palm.
"I don't dare, this servant doesn't dare. Fight, don't drag him down. Let him go back, we won't let him enter the capital ever again …" He can't threaten you, he's just a small general, he only knows how to fight, he doesn't know how to plot, and he won't make an enemy out of the king. " Yu Yan stuck even tighter on his face and whispered anxiously into his ear.
"Wangfei, this official is still waiting for wangfei's words." The Zhao Taizhu saw the two whispering and urged them on.
"Enough, this king does things. Do you need to explain it to the empress dowager? She is This King's person, so This King will take her away. " Yulixiao turned his head, staring at the Zhao Taizhu, he shouted coldly.
With just a glance, it carried with it a heavy killing intent, causing the Zhao Taizhu to shudder. He laughed in embarrassment and said in a low voice: "Since Your Highness does not care about the color of your hat, then this official will not say anymore. Your Highness, please, this official still has matters to attend to."
"Don't leave. Prince, save him, save him, save him …"
Yu Yan's heart sank and sank. If he left, Yun Qin would definitely fight to the death. He was just that stubborn, how could he tolerate being framed? Just like her father, he would rather die than submit.
She hugged Yulixiao's shoulders tightly, and twisted her body in his embrace, repeatedly begging, "If you save him, I'm willing to do anything …"
"Enough." Yulixiao's face became even more unsightly, his hand slashed the back of her neck, and she blacked out as he weakly fell to the ground.
"Your Highness, please." Zhao Taizhu stretched out his hand with a sinister smile on his face.
