Vol 2 Chapter 64

Today’s defense in the city is weaker than in the past.

Lu Qingze and Ning Juan guessed that Wei Herong’s remnants would start operations in Baisui Mountain today, and they had been observing the movement of the Fifth Army Camp for several days.

Although Ning Ruan and Lu Qing were very nervous, and left someone to protect him, he still took advantage of Fan Wei, who was familiar with the city’s defense and had extremely strong martial arts.

No one would have thought that Fan Wei would turn his attention to Lu Qingze instead of the little emperor who decided everything.

The carriage did not know where it went.

Lu Qing quietly opened the corner of the carriage curtain and tried to throw a token out, but Fan Wei seemed to sense what he wanted to do, snorted coldly, and threw something into the carriage.

A choking breath spread.

Lu Qing secretly thought that it was not good, and immediately covered his nose, but he still couldn’t resist the effect of the drug, and his consciousness gradually became blurred.

When Lu Qingze woke up again, he was already in a dim room.

After a long while, he realized that it was not the darkness in the room, but that his eyes were covered by a belt and ropes were tied around him.

Although I can’t see where it is, there is a faint tide of old and decadent air around it, and it should be in a place where few people come and go.

He was thrown on the ground, the ground was icy cold, the damp chill penetrated the robes and stuck to the skin, penetrated into the bones, so cold that he shuddered fiercely, and he was almost unconscious where he touched the ground, but his chest and lungs felt like Hot as fire.

The body is hot and cold, like ice and fire.

Lu Qingze’s head was dizzy, as if a string was stretched in his head, pulling him repeatedly, non-stop, and the headache was severe.

He tilted his head, breathing like he was exhaling steaming heat.

The wind chill has intensified.

Staying so close to the ground all the time, I’m afraid it will worsen the condition. Lu Qing took a light breath, held his breath, tightened his abdomen, and tried his best to sit up.

When he breathed again, his eyes were blurred, his breathing was a little hasty, his throat itch, and he coughed violently uncontrollably.

This movement alarmed the people who were guarding outside, and with a crunch, someone stepped into the house.

Lu Qing was dizzy and dizzy from coughing, his chest was so tight that there was almost a **** smell, he tried his best to hold his breath, and turned to the place where the man came in, his voice was hoarse: “I’m a little curious, everyone’s eyes today are all over the place. Turning to Baisui Mountain, but Commander Fan came directly towards me?”

Fan Wei stared coldly at Lu Qingze, who was sitting on the ground, his clothes were messy and his lips were chapped, but he could speak freely. For some reason, he thought of another person.

Although this sick seedling is soft and weak, but in this respect, he is somewhat similar to the Wei Shoufu whom he admires.

Because of this strange resemblance, Fan Wei, although his eyes were filled with disgust, still spit out a sentence: “If you want people to not know, you must do it yourself.”

Lu Qing had expected many of Fan Wei’s responses, but he never expected that the answer to him was this, after a moment of stunned, inexplicable laughter: “What does Commander Fan mean, I don’t know, I still do it. What happened to you?”

Seeing Lu Qing then denying it, Fan Wei’s contempt in his eyes increased even more: “Lu Qing, don’t think that you and the little emperor can hide from the sky and cross the sea, teachers and students are against morality, and it is against human relations, you are still the world. Complimentary gentleman!”

Lu Qingze: “…”

What? ? ?

No matter how calm and calm Lu Qing was, he gave Fan Wei a sentence that shocked him for ten seconds, only to feel his brain hurt even more: “… Commander Fan, although I don’t know how you misunderstood, I need to clarify. , Your Majesty and I, it’s really nothing.”

“I’ve read Xiang Zhiming’s memorial.” Fan Wei held his hands and swept across Lu Qingze’s face condescendingly, “No wonder the little emperor wants you to wear a mask, it turns out that you are not disfigured, but that he wants to hide it. , it is no wonder that you stayed in the harem all day, or the little emperor came to stay in your house, and used the name of teachers and students to do sloppy things.

The more you think about it, the more reasonable it feels.

Fan Wei frowned and couldn’t go on: “I’m not interested in spreading the word about you. As long as my adoptive father can return safely, you have nothing to do with me.”

Lu Qing didn’t know what Xiang Zhiming wrote in the book.

But for the first time, he mentioned murderous intentions to Zhiming.

Fan Wei didn’t seem to want to talk to Lu Qingze, so he snorted and turned away.

The surroundings fell silent again, while Lu Qing was in darkness, his mind was chaotic and hot, and he could only try his best to listen to the movement outside.

The ear was extremely silent, and there was no human voice. Perhaps Fan Wei had taken him out of the capital and hid in some unknown place.

There were faint voices outside the door, and the pressure was extremely low. Apart from Fan Wei, there were other confidants here.

Because he was in a coma for a while and his eyes were blindfolded again, it was difficult for Lu Qing to tell what time it was and what was going on at Baisui Mountain.

Yining Juan’s power of action, perhaps the remnants of the party who were trying to rebel and struggle today have been taken down. It will take You Wu a little time to bring the news, and it will take a while for the news to reach Ning Juan, and then wait for Ning Juan to bring people to search for traces. It will take a while to find it.

But he might not be able to wait for Ning Juan to come over.

Lu Qing could feel his body getting hotter.

If it is delayed for too long, and the wind-cold will become heavier, I am afraid it will not work, and the wind-cold will also kill people, especially if his body is too weak.

If he hadn’t been drinking medicine for conditioning, and from time to time he followed General Shi Da to learn how to strengthen his body, according to the past situation, he would probably have passed out of a coma by now.

Besides, it was impossible for Ning Juan to let Wei Herong go. Wei Herong also accepted his ending calmly. Fan Wei acted on his own initiative, and the situation would not be too peaceful. spread to.

You can’t just sit and wait for Ning Juan to save him.

Lu Qing’s mind was spinning rapidly, thinking about how to loosen the rope on his body, and how to solve the escape of the guards outside.

While thinking about it, there was an itch in his throat again, but Lu Qing couldn’t help curling up slightly, coughing so hard, his pale cheeks were flushed with coughing, as if the anger in his body was about to be coughed away, his whole body There are also layers of cold sweat, and I don’t know where the air leaks in the room.

As soon as the chattering outside stopped, the door was pushed open again: “Boss, is he going to die?”

“If this is dead, how can we replace the emperor with the little emperor, we didn’t bring any medicine…”

“The news from the Baisui Mountain has not yet come. If the little emperor died there, it would be enough to kill him directly.”

Lu Qingze’s breathing was a little heavy. After listening to them, he endured a sore throat and said, “Today, the Wei Dang wants to assassinate the Baisui Mountain. It has already been known by His Majesty, and now I am afraid that everyone has been taken down, Commander Fan. Since my goal is to replace people, if I die here, not only Wei Herong.”

He paused and wrote lightly: “I’m afraid Wei Qiao will also be crushed to ashes.”

As soon as the voice fell, the sight that fell on him was obviously a little sharper, like a knife.

There was a hint of chill in Fan Wei’s voice: “Left and right are just to exchange. I will cut off your hand and send it over. The little emperor should be obedient. I guess he is also very familiar with what your hand looks like.”

Lu Qingze was not frightened, but smiled and said calmly: “Director Fan can try, if you cut off my hand, His Majesty will give you Wei Herong’s hand. I’m fine now. , Your Majesty may listen to you patiently in order to exchange me back, but if there is something wrong with me, with His Majesty’s character, I won’t have so many scruples.”

Fan Wei was silent for a while.

The royal nature is cold and weak, and few emperors of the past dynasties have a good end. The little emperor is probably greedy for Lu Qingze’s beauty.

A piece of beautiful jade, when there is no time, is naturally sought after by countless people and is invaluable. If there is a crack and a piece is broken, I am afraid that no one cares.

Yunfeng Temple was the place where sinners were imprisoned in the past dynasties.

When Wei Herong and Wei Qiao returned, he stabbed Lu Qingze a few times. The little emperor was busy saving Lu Qingze, and he didn’t have the energy to pay them, so he could take the opportunity to escape from Gyeonggi.

It doesn’t matter whether Lu Qing is alive or dead, but at least for now, a complete Lu Qing is indeed very important.

Fan Wei led the person to turn around and left, lowering his voice: “Go to the nearby village to order some cold medicine. It’s better if you can buy the medicine directly. Move faster and don’t be too conspicuous.”

The voices in my ears disappeared again.

Fan Wei’s silence just now gave Lu Qingze a bad premonition. Fan Wei is ruthless, and if he really gets someone else, I’m afraid he will be ruthless.

Although he has already urged Fan Wei to send someone out to find medicine, he may not be able to run into Ning Juan’s person. He has to find a way, at least he has to untie the rope on his body and the cloth on his eyes so that he can escape. .

But the mind is already a mess.

Lu Qingze’s breathing became hotter and hotter. For a few moments, he even passed out in a semi-consciousness, and his consciousness was disconnected for a few moments. When he came back to his senses, the door was pushed open with a creak.

Lu Qing woke up suddenly.

A smell of medicine permeated, and it seemed that Fan Wei’s people really bought ready-made soup medicine.

Lu Qing was so weak that several people didn’t think he would have any resistance. Lu Qing listened intently and was sure that only one person had entered.

He moved a little, and a very low voice came from his ear: “Lord Lu, listen to me next.”

Lu Qing felt that the voice was vaguely familiar. He turned his head slowly, and realized that his voice was very weak because of his hoarseness: “Qin Yuanan?”

The son of Qin Hui, the censor of Zuodu, Wei Qiao’s childhood sweetheart?

Why is he here?

Yu Fang did not respond.

Probably without guessing that he recognized his identity at once, and his breathing suddenly became a little chaotic.

Lu Qing leaned closer to the cold wall, and when he turned around, he understood.

Qin Yuanan used to be an official in Beijing Camp, and it was normal for him to know Fan Wei. On the Dragon Boat Festival, the two of them also won the first prize of Sheliu together.

Now Wei Qiao is locked in Yunfeng Temple. No one can enter except Xu Shu. Wei Qiao will spend the last time of his life alone in it.

This is the last way Wei Herong can pave the way for Wei Qiao. Although it is somewhat tragic, it is also the best end. It is better than being cut off from the medicine in prison and tortured to death.

Qin Yuanan and Wei Qiao are so close, I am afraid that he is reluctant to see Wei Qiao come to an end like this.

But following Fan Wei to take risks, the risks are undoubtedly huge.

Lu Qing wanted to say “why?” Wei Qiao had not many days left, so what if he was rescued, but this was too rational and he was pressed down before he could speak.

He was also on the verge of death several times, and Yuwei Qiao’s desire was nowhere to be seen.

What Qin Yuanan did seems to be meaningless, but for them, it is indeed meaningful.

It’s just that he doesn’t understand.

Just being a childhood sweetheart with a few years in the middle, can you do this for another?

Lu Qingze’s lips moved: “You and Wei Qiao…”

“Aqiao actually knows everything, he is very smart.”

Qin Yuanan didn’t dare to face Lu Qingze’s gaze, so he didn’t immediately help him remove the cloth covering his eyes, put down the medicine bowl, and took out the dagger: “Lord Lu said before that people trapped in sick beds have the greatest wish. , is able to go out for a walk, he has always wanted to go out for a walk, but he can’t, at least at the last moment, I don’t want him to go away with regrets.”

Lu Qing listened quietly and felt his hand loosen, but he was tied for a long time and suddenly loosened, and his body was still full of cold numbness, and he couldn’t move for a while.

Qin Yuanan’s tone was harsh: “I originally thought that Fan Wei just wanted to exchange you for Wei Herong and Aqiao, and then send you back safely, but he was outside just now, listening to him and others talking about it, and he didn’t intend to keep the contract. After that, you are in danger.”

Lu Qing regained some strength, twisted his wrist, and said lightly: “I can pretend that I didn’t see you today, Young Master Qin, hurry back.”

Qin Yuanan shook his head: “There are twenty of Fan Wei’s confidants on the mountain, I will help you drive them away, you run down the mountain, just now when I went out to buy medicine, I saw His Majesty’s people, as long as you meet His Majesty’s people, you will be safe Now, Your Majesty will no longer throw the rat taboo.”

Lu Qing reached out and tried to undo the cloth on his head: “Then what do you do? You betrayed Fan Wei, and he probably won’t show mercy to you.”

Qin Yuanan said bitterly: “I helped Fan Wei to tie you up, which is also a betrayal of His Majesty. Lord Wanwang Lu intercedes for my father, and don’t let His Majesty blame him.”

Lu Qing was about to speak when the door was suddenly pushed open with a creak.

Fan Wei’s cold voice came: “Qin Yuanan, when I saw you looking forward and backward, I knew that you would not be honest, and let you come in to deliver medicine. Sure enough, you are a coward and traitor.”

Qin Yuanan’s mind was mixed and chaotic. He was startled when he heard the voice, and immediately drew his sword and refuted: “Fan Wei, you broke the contract earlier. When we discussed it earlier, you only said that you needed Lord Lu as a bargaining chip. Get back Wei Shoufu and Aqiao, and promise not to hurt him!”

“Hmph,” Fan Wei didn’t intend to be long-winded, “Take him down!”

Lu Qing tore off the cloth covering his eyes. Fortunately, the sky was gloomy outside. It seemed that it was almost dark and the light was not strong. He was only shaken in front of him, and then it became clear again.

The two burly soldiers beside Fan Wei drew their swords in response, and the narrow room immediately became a battlefield. Fortunately, Qin Yuanan’s martial arts were strong enough, and he didn’t fall behind.

Seeing that the two of them couldn’t take it down, Fan Wei glanced outside and pulled out his knife: “Trash, get out of the way, I’ll do it!”

Fan Wei was able to become the leader of the fifth army battalion, and he was the one who entered the palace together with Wei Herong.

As soon as he made his move, Qin Yuanan was a little out of strength, and was slammed to the ground by the huge force, coughed and couldn’t stand up for a while.

Seeing that the scarlet murderous aura flashed in Fan Wei’s eyes, he was about to slash Qin Yuanan’s neck with a knife. Lu Qing, who was hiding in the corner to avoid the battle, raised his wrist without hesitation, and his sleeve arrow flew out.

But he didn’t expect Fan Wei to wander on the front line of life and death countless times. He had a very keen sense of smell in crisis. When he turned around, the sleeve arrow shifted a few inches from its original target, and shot him in the chest “right”.

He was actually wearing armor.

Lu Qingze: “…”

This is embarrassing, the power of Xiu Jian is not enough to pierce armor.

Seeing Fan Wei’s scarlet eyes turning around, Lu Qing pursed his lips, knowing that there was no chance of a second sneak attack.

But this gap also bought Qin Yuanan time. He stood up and was about to form a ball when he suddenly exclaimed, “No, boss, there are traces of Jinyiwei outside!”

At the next moment, there was a “boom” sound of arrows, and there were several screams from outside.

Did the little emperor find him so quickly?

Fan Wei’s face changed suddenly, and he rushed to Lu Qingze without hesitation, wanting to hold him hostage.

At this moment, another blade wind suddenly lit up.

Lu Qing looked up and saw the mysterious young man in Xuanfu who appeared like a divine soldier, his pupils shrunk slightly.

Ning Juan actually came in person!

Is he crazy, he is the emperor!

Ning Wan’s face was gloomy and cold, but Lu Qing had never seen such a terrifying look on his face. The murderous aura in his eyes was even stronger than the trapped beast-like Fan Wei, and even more desperate than Fan Wei. Yes, the sword was sharp, and with a few moves, Fan Wei was beaten back and forth.

Just now, Qin Yuanan fought one against two, but Lu Qingze’s heart was not so suspended. He held his breath and looked at Ning Juan, not daring to make a sound to alert his attention, and cursed Zheng Yao again in his heart.

What did Zheng Yao do to eat, so that Ning Juan came over!

In addition to Ning Wan, several familiar secret guards also rushed in. Seeing that they would not intervene in the battle, they looked at each other for a while. In the end, they could only help Lu Qingze up first, while the other went to help Qin Yuanan, and both of them killed Fan Wei’s confidant. under the knife.

The small firewood house was crowded and lively.

Immediately, with a “dang bang”, the knife in Fan Wei’s hand was slashed to the ground.

The juvenile emperor was carrying the knife, but the anger on his body had not yet subsided, and his boots stepped on Fan Wei’s face, and he slammed it with no expression on his face.

Such an insulting action made Fan Wei almost mad: “God emperor, kill Lao Tzu!”

Ning Juan raised his foot, and with a loud bang, Fan Wei’s head slammed heavily on the ground, blood oozing out.

He lowered his thin eyelids, and his eyes seemed to be covered with a shadow: “Of course I will kill you.”

In a way that you can’t survive, you can’t die.

Ning Juan pulled out a cold smile from the corner of his mouth, moved his boots down, stepped on his chest, and pressed the back of his foot hard.

A “click” could be heard vaguely, as if something had broken, the squeezing sound and Fan Wei’s suffocating, chaotic low gasping screams were clearly heard.

Realizing what the sound might be, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

Lu Qingze’s eyelids couldn’t help but jump. Killing Fan Wei was no problem, but in this way of killing, it was not good for Ning Juan to spread the word.

And this kind of Ningyan does look…a bit scary.

He wanted to speak, but couldn’t help but let out a low cough.

Ning Juan was still in extreme emotions, and when he heard Lu Qingze’s voice, he turned his head subconsciously.

Seeing Lu Qingze’s pale face, he suddenly regained his senses, put away his movements, threw the knife, hurried over, and hugged Lu Qingze tightly.

The young man who was still as sharp as the arc of a blade just now was breathing uncontrollably.

Lu Qing’s brain hurt so much that it seemed like someone stuck a knife into his head, he held his breath, and patted his back lightly to soothe his emotions. , don’t be afraid.”

The gentle voice flowed into his ears, calming the rampant anger in Ning Wan’s chest a lot.

Fan Wei watched this dog man dare to be so intimate in front of everyone, coughed up blood, and reluctantly scolded: “God emperor, even his own teacher can do it, shameless, contemptuous and unreasonable, wait and see what the history books say. Record your deceitful master and destroy your ancestors!”

Lu Qing froze slightly, realized that something was wrong, and wanted to push Ning Juan away, but Ning Juan’s eyes did not change, and his tone was flat: “I’m afraid you won’t see the time when the history books judge my life’s merits and demerits.”

Lu Qing closed his eyes, pushed Ning Juan away firmly, and his voice became cold: “You just let him talk nonsense and ruin His Majesty’s reputation? Stop his mouth.”

Several dark guards hurriedly wanted to move.

But at this moment, Fan Wei burst out with amazing strength. He lifted the dark guard who was about to tie him up, picked up the knife that had fallen beside him, and rushed over!

His potential exploded before he was about to die, not to mention that Fan Wei was a fierce general. Seeing that Fan Wei’s sword was approaching, Ning Juan pushed Lu Qingze away, bent over and avoided the sword. But Fan Wei shouted angrily, and immediately swung it down with the next knife!

“Look down!”

Lu Qing spoke in a hurry, but Ning Juan gave up the idea of ​​dodging and bowed his head obediently.

He raised his hand to aim, and pressed the machine to cover, a series of movements were completed almost instantaneously, with a bang, the poisonous sleeve arrow penetrated Fan Wei’s neck.

Lu Qing usually practiced the target head of the Hidden Arrow when he had nothing to do in the house, and the bullseye in the courtyard had long been worn out.

The poison on the sleeve arrow is said to be numb when an elephant licks it, but in fact the effect seems to be not bad.

Fan Wei slammed to the ground, clutching his neck, shouting “hoho” unwillingly, his expression gradually freezing.

At this time, Lu Qingze felt that the cold sweat had soaked his back, and the headache that had disappeared in an instant came back again, and his heartbeat was like a rapid drumbeat.

Ning Juan kicked Fan Wei’s body away, quickly came over to support Lu Qingze, looked at him with loose eyes and a cold sweat on his face, quickly took off his robe and wrapped him around his body, picked him up, and said sharply: “Call Xu Shu over here!”

There were almost double images in front of Lu Qingze’s eyes, and there was a buzzing tinnitus in his ears, and his mind was confused for a while, and he couldn’t hear what Ning Juan was saying.

I don’t know how long it took, and when his consciousness became clear again, he was lying on a soft and hard place, swaying slightly under him, and then an indifferent voice came from his ears: “Send Qin Hui and Qin Yuanan to the prison, Choose another day to ask Wei Herong and Wei Qiao to be executed.”

His heartbeat suddenly missed a beat, and he reached out to grab Ning Juan, but because he couldn’t see clearly just after waking up, he faltered for a while, and the next moment he was held by a pair of warm hands.

Ning Juan stopped paying attention to the people outside, leaned over and asked eagerly, “Is the teacher feeling better?”

Lu Qing opened his eyes in a cold sweat, only to find that he seemed to have been taken down the mountain. Now in the carriage, he was held in Ning Lian’s arms, and his posture was so intimate that he crossed the line.

“Qin Yuanan is here to save me,” Lu Qing tried not to think about those things. It was important to save people first. “This matter has nothing to do with the Wei family and his son. Your Majesty, don’t get involved in indiscriminate killings.”

Ning Juan didn’t expect that he would say this when he woke up, he was quiet, reached out to test his forehead temperature, and avoided answering: “Xu Shu gave you a pill, it seems to be quite effective, I will ask him to keep it in the future. Take some.”

Lu Qing grabbed his sleeve and tried hard, the blue veins on his thin wrist were obvious, and his breathing was short of breath: “Your Majesty!”

Ning Juan was silent for a moment, with no expression: “After I led someone to capture Wei Herong’s remnant party in Baisui Mountain, I suddenly felt very uneasy.”

Sure enough, not long after, someone came to report that Master Lu was kidnapped.

It was obvious that the person was right under his nose, but he was almost taken away.

The floating phobia came up again, making him restless and furious, eager to kill a few people to vent his hatred.

Lu Qing looked at Ning Juan and realized with hindsight that it seemed useless to reason with Ning Juan now.

He could only slow down his tone: “Guo Guo, are you still listening to the teacher?”

“You don’t joke, the will has been released.” Ning Yan pursed his lips, knowing what Lu Qing wanted to say, and said in a fit of anger, “Except for the request just now, I will listen to everything else.”

Lu Qing stared at him for a few seconds, then suddenly said, “What if I want to resign and go back to my hometown?”

Ning Wan’s face changed instantly.

Lu Qing stretched out his fingers and pressed his lips, motioning him not to speak, and continued: “Guo Guo, don’t let your anger control your mind, Qin Hui has followed you from the beginning, but now it’s just because Qin Yuanan made a mistake, you want his family Death penalty, other people will not feel chills, not to mention Qin Yuanan is indeed lost. You are the emperor, and you can decide life and death with a casual sentence, so you are more cautious than others. ”

Ning Juan’s face changed a few times, but he finally nodded slowly.

Seeing that he could listen in, Lu Qing let go of his hand and closed his sweaty eyelashes wearily.

But Ning Juan was still a little hesitant, and asked nervously, “What teacher just said…is it serious?”

He didn’t even dare to touch the words of resignation and returning home.

Lu Qing actually wanted to resign!

Just because he was annoyed and wanted to put Qin Yuanan to death, did the teacher not want him?

Lu Qingze’s mind was intertwined with Fan Wei’s scolding before his death, as well as the warnings from Wei Herong and Duan Lingguang.

He lied.

A few days ago, Lu Qing had been hesitating and wandering, telling himself that Ning Juan was still young, but he just went astray for a while, and proper distance and teaching might not be impossible to get over.

After all, he is Xiao Guoguo who is reluctant to live with him for many years.

But now, his heart has been biased.

Apart from those complicated reasons, he suddenly discovered today that as long as he is still around, it seems that it will affect Ning Juan’s normal judgment.

It shouldn’t.

As soon as the Guardian Party was eliminated, the government and the opposition were empty. If he helped Ning Juan clean up the mess, Ning Juan would have to go on his own.

It was time for him to think about how to get out.

The author has something to say:

Fan Wei: After reading the fanfiction letter, I thought it was true, but I didn’t expect that Fanwen would actually szd!
