Prisoner of the Eastern Palace

It was almost dusk, and in the Capital Inn, Shadow Guard Langfeng asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, in this situation, do you still want to enter the palace?"

Mu Ke was writing something in front of the table without raising his head. After a while, he handed the secret letter in his hand to Lang Feng, and said in a deep voice: "I won't enter the palace anymore, find someone to hand over this letter to." Give it to King Xuan, he will send someone to help search the city."

Lang Feng bowed his head to accept the order, accepted the letter, then went out and handed it to a fast-paced spy, who gave him some instructions.

When he went in again, Mu Ke was already fully dressed, his eyes were calm and lingering, making one's heart palpitate.

Lang Feng was taken aback, "Your Highness?"

Mu Ke straightened his clothes, and said in a deep voice, "Prepare the horse, come with me to find him."

Lang Feng thought for a while, he knew that everyone had dispersed to find Shaoqing now, even if the two of them went out in such a large area, it would have little effect.

But Lang Feng was used to obeying orders, so he didn't say anything, and went out to prepare the horses by himself.

Luo Yanyu in the palace soon received the secret letter, after he read it carefully, he looked at Congguang with some doubts.

A trace of teasing emerged from Guang's pretty face, "Why, His Royal Highness Xuan Wang thinks I did it?"

Luo Yanyu was startled, and quickly waved her hands to deny, "No! I didn't think so!"

Cong Guang smiled, hugged Luo Yanyu and squeezed his chin, said softly: "It's really not a miscellaneous job, but I can guess who did it."

"Who is it?" Luo Yanyu bit her nails and thought for a while, then hesitated: "Is...Is it Mei Qingxiang? Ever since he came back from Yichao, something is not quite right..."

"Whoever he is." Cong Guang smiled lightly, not paying attention, "Anyway, if this person succeeds, then for us, it's a murder with a knife. If he loses, it won't involve us. The matter of returning to Chen Ting may have made the prince wary, we shouldn't do anything now, this person's meddling can just be a mess, no matter what, it is beneficial to us."

Luo Yanyu felt a little uneasy, quietly pinched Congguang's corner of his clothes, moved closer, and whispered: "But His Royal Highness asked me to send some people to look for Brother Wang, what should I do?"

"It's okay, just send my people out." Cong Guang kissed Luo Yanyu's forehead, and said with a meaningful smile: "They are the best at things like being lazy and slippery."

Luo Yanyu was silent for a while, feeling a little unbearable for a moment, but when she looked up and saw Congguang's eyes, she remained silent, obediently obeying him as usual.

……

On the outskirts of the city, the night wind howled, blowing the torch brightly and darkly, and the orange flame flickered, illuminating the majestic and solemn statue of the three pythons in the center of the platform.

Luo Ange has been here many times as a monarch, sometimes to worship the heavens and gods, sometimes to pray for rain, and to pray for the people, but he never thought that one day, he would be kidnapped here,

He sat with his back against a stake, his hands were tied to the stake with ropes, and he couldn't move.

Luo Ange stared at Mei Luzhi not far away by the light of the fire. The man was sitting on the steps, silently wiping the dagger in his hand. Except for those hands, he hardly moved, like a lifeless statue Generally, a barrier shadow is formed in the dark night.

Finishing him with a clean dagger may be the last respect that Mei Luzhi can give him as a monarch.

Luo Ange stared at him without saying a word, and quietly untied the rope with both hands behind him. It was a bit difficult, but as long as he was given enough time, he might be able to break free.

But Mei Luzhi had already got up and walked towards him slowly, the dagger in his hand was shining, which hurt Luo Ange's eyes.

He swallowed nervously, trying to delay time, "Lu Zhi, do you hate me? That's why you must let me die?"

After asking this question, he himself felt a little chilled.

The two grew up together, so it can be said that they were not close. Mei Luzhi saved his life when he was a child, but now it seems that he wants to give his life back to him.

Luo Ange closed his eyes, Mei Luzhi's movements froze, his Adam's apple moved twice, he squatted down in front of Luo Ange, and said in a hoarse voice: "I don't hate you, Xiao Zheng, I just can't bear it." You've fallen like this."

Feeling the cold blade sticking to his neck, Luo Ange shivered involuntarily.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Xituan was hugged by Mei Luzhi, and Luo Ange was surprised to feel that the other party was kissing him!

Luo Ange's face turned pale instantly, and his voice became hoarse, "...Lu, Lu Zhi?!"

He has lived for 20 years, and he never knew that his childhood sweetheart still had such thoughts!

Mei Luzhi's kiss is completely different from Mu Ke's. Without his domineering and forceful approach, Mei Luzhi just kissed his cheek softly, stroking his eyelashes with his lips, very lightly, as if treating someone It's like a rare treasure.

But under this gentle kiss, Luo Ange was stiff from head to toe, trembling and unable to speak.

As if sensing his fear, Mei Luzhi caressed his back, whispering almost obsessively: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, Xiaozheng, I'll strike quickly, you won't feel pain .”

Luo Ange's eyes widened in horror, he could almost feel the dagger on his neck approaching, and it was cold.

Mei Luzhi finally kissed his mouth at last, and just kissed him slightly, then sighed contentedly, pressed his forehead against his, and sincerely promised: "Don't be afraid, Xiaozheng, when you die, I will jump from here immediately, on the road to Huangquan, no one will be alone..."

"Lu Zhi!" Luo Ange screamed suddenly, Mei Luzhi sensed something was wrong, and before he had time to react, he was kicked from behind, and the dagger in his hand fell out of his hand.

Luo Ange only felt a pain in his neck, and then something hot and humid gushed out - the dagger that came out of his hand scratched his neck.

Under the brilliance of the torches, Mu Ke could only see the bright red on Luo Ange's neck, and couldn't help being shocked, he quickly squatted down, took out a towel to help him bandage the wound, and comforted him, "Xiaoxiao, don't be afraid, I will coming."

Luo Ange shook his head, "Mu Ke, I'm fine, it's just a scratch."

As if knowing what he was going to say next, Mu Ke leaned over and kissed his lips, and said in a low voice, "Stop talking."

He swiftly untied the rope on Luo'an singer, and hugged him up.

Over there, Mei Luzhi vomited blood on the ground, and took a moment to stand up reluctantly.

Mu Ke's kick just now was really murderous, and he kicked directly at his heart, without any mercy.

Mu Ke glanced at him, motioned for Lang Feng behind him to come over, and handed Luo Ange to him.

Luo Ange seemed to realize something, reached out and grabbed his sleeve, hesitated again and again, and then begged in a low voice: "Mu Ke, I'm not hurt, don't..."

"Let go."

Luo Ange was taken aback, it had been a long time, Mu Ke hadn't spoken to him in such a cold tone for a long time.Luo Ange panicked, and the hand holding his sleeve couldn't help but let go.

Mu Ke walked forward with a flick of his sleeves, grabbed Mei Luzhi by the front, and pushed him to the edge of the high platform. The night wind howled and the black crows circled around. It was only one step away before he would fall off the altar. To pieces.

Mu Ke stared at him stubbornly, his eyes were like black ink that could not be melted away. When he was furious, even the air around his body seemed to be turned into a sharp knife. When he breathed in, his throat and lungs were full of bloody pain.

"You want to die, no one is stopping you." Mu Ke pushed him back and said harshly, "But don't drag others to die together, it's too disgusting."

Mei Luzhi's Adam's apple moved, stared at him in disgust, coughed twice, and some blood oozes from his mouth, "Obviously, obviously you killed him, Xiaozheng him...he used to..."

Before he could finish his words, Mei Luzhi coughed violently. The kick just now was so hard that it might have damaged his lungs.

"He used to be a fool." Mu Ke took one last look at Mei Lu, and said coldly, "Just as stupid as you."

Then, with a slight push without hesitation, Mei Luzhi's body flew out lightly like a dead autumn leaf, and fell to the ground with a slam in the cold night wind.

The voice was actually very small, hidden in the whistling wind, it was almost inaudible, but the voice fell clearly in Luo Ange's mind, and with a bang, there was no more words.

There is nothing more to say, Mei Luzhi is dead.

Luo Ange broke away from Lang Feng violently, ran a few steps forward, looked at Mu Ke's awe-inspiring back, and suddenly stopped in his tracks, standing on the spot helplessly.

In fact, he has no position to accuse anyone, and there is no one for him to hate.

Is Mu Ke wrong?No.Does Mei Luzhi deserve to die?Damn.These answers are actually very clear, but Luo Ange...he needs a little time to accept.

So at this moment, the only thing Luo Ange can do is to slowly squat down, curl up, and cry loudly.

Mu Ke turned around silently, knelt down in front of Luo Ange, stretched out his hand to hug him, and said in a low voice: "You should understand, I didn't kill him for revenge or to vent my anger, I did it for you."

"I can save you this time, what about the next time? What about the next time? As long as he lives, you will always be in danger, so I have to kill the grass, do you understand, Xiaoxiao?"

Luo Ange was crying out of breath in his arms, his fingers were trembling, and he was holding on to Mu Ke's clothes tightly. He nodded vigorously, crying, "I understand, I, I understand... I'm just, sorry, give me a moment, I, I..."

Mu Ke instantly understood that this person never blamed himself for killing Mei Lu, he just needed time to accept this fact.

Without saying a word, Mu Ke hugged Luo Ange even tighter, rubbed his chin on the top of his head, and comforted him softly: "It's okay, you cry, I know you feel uncomfortable."
