The prince is seriously ill

Chapter 13 The height of the temple

In the 15th year of Renqing, on the seventh day of May, Liyang Palace.

The weather was a little stuffy, and Xun Yu was practicing boxing.Suddenly there was a rustling sound, and the sparrows in the yard flew into fright.Xun Yu stopped his movements and stared blankly at the door, his eyelids twitched violently for some reason, and an ominous premonition flashed in his heart.

Concubine Xian came out of the room with a serious expression, clenched the nine-section whip in her hand, ran to the middle of the courtyard, looked left and right, then turned back to stare at the child who was about the same height as her, and said in a low voice: "Yu'er, come in." Go to your room and lock the door." He said to the maid next to him, "Take the second prince in, and no matter what happens, he is not allowed to come out."

"Mother, my son, don't go in, no matter what happens, my son must be with mother!" Xun Yu grabbed her sleeve with one hand, and his feet seemed to be nailed to the ground.

"Go in!" Concubine Xian urged with a cold face, she shook off his hand suddenly, and looked around vigilantly.Xun Yu panicked for no reason. Although his mother didn't scold him, and she wasn't as fierce as usual when she was angry, her expression scared him. He had never seen her look like an enemy.

He didn't know what was going to happen, but he figured it must be bad.He knew Concubine Xian's temper very well, if he disobeyed her at a critical moment, she would usually choose force to make him submit.

Xun Yu looked at her worriedly, opened his mouth, hesitated for a moment and closed it again, picked up his crutches and walked in very obediently, just two steps away, he felt a gust of wind rushing towards him, and suddenly his whole body went numb, and his body turned pale. The walking posture was strangely fixed in place, and no more words could be uttered from his mouth.

Concubine Xian walked up to him solemnly, "Mother knows what you're thinking, and these maids probably won't be able to restrain you. Mother touched your acupuncture point, and it will automatically untie after three hours," turning her head and telling the maid, "Take him go in."

Xun Yu looked at her half annoyed and half panicked. Knowing his son is like his mother, he didn't expect that he would still be seen through by her.He originally planned to obey her words and go in obediently, and then secretly crouched at the door to see what would happen before waiting for an opportunity to act.But Concubine Xian obviously didn't give him this chance.

Concubine Xian watched the maid carry him away with a complicated expression, and finally took a deep look at the familiar thin figure, pretending not to see the shock and anxiety in his eyes, the corners of her mouth moved, using a voice only she heard Lostly said: "Take care of yourself, don't let mother go uneasy."

The door opened and closed, completely cutting off Concubine Xian's nostalgic gaze...

Xun Yu felt a sharp pain in his heart. The moment before the door closed, his mother's expression full of meaning seemed to be saying goodbye to him. He seemed to hear her say, Yu'er, mother is leaving!His heart seemed to jump out, he just wanted to throw himself into her arms regardless of everything, and he would follow her wherever she went, never letting her leave, never letting her leave him.But he could only watch the door creak and close feebly, and he couldn't even lift his eyelids.

The maid Lu Yin locked the door, and suggested in a low voice: "Let's stay here to watch what's going on outside, and if something happens, we can respond in time. What do you think?"

Maybe it was curiosity, maybe it was panic, maybe there were some other selfishness, the maids nodded in agreement.

If it wasn't for the fact that he couldn't move after pressing the acupoints, Xun Yu might have raised his hands in agreement.

There was a moment of unbearable silence.Suddenly, dozens of imperial guards surrounded them rhythmically, and finally stood in two rows, leaving an aisle about six feet wide in the middle.Xun Zhi strode out, his long and narrow eyes were full of indifference, mixed with a bit of pride, and shouted: "Catch this remnant gang of thieves."

Concubine Xian straightened her body, stood motionless on the spot, squinted at her surroundings, and said expressionlessly, "What does the emperor mean?"

"I have received a secret report that the traitor Mu Pingchuan intends to rebel, and I have ordered people to kill him on the spot. As an accomplice, Xianfei still wants to resist?" Xun Zhi said, staring at her clenched fist.

Concubine Xian laughed so hard that she burst into tears.The Mu family was finally defeated, and the day has come!She has not been home for three years, and the contact with her father was cut off by the person in front of her two years ago. She knew that the bad news would come sooner or later, and she was not surprised at all.Even if her father retires and returns home, Xun Zhi will not let him go.There is only one way out for the Mu family, and that is rebellion.But how could her father be against it?He would rather die than rebel.

"What a plot to rebel!" Concubine Xian laughed miserably, and suddenly, her smile froze on her face, she roared hoarsely, "I'll show you back today!" The whip flew up suddenly, hitting the guard's gate with precision, Immediately, he turned around, hooked a sword and retracted it.Concubine Xian jumped up and held it, brandishing a big knife, ignoring the encirclement of the Imperial Forest Army, and went straight to attack Xun Zhi.

Standing in the tight protective circle, Xun Zhi took two steps back and said, "Mu Yao, if you will capture me without a fight, I will forcefully give you a whole corpse. If you are stubborn, I will leave you with no bones left!"

"It's a death anyway, so what if there are no bones left?" Concubine Xian gritted her teeth, her saber technique was even more fierce. She didn't draw back to defend, but fortunately she was flexible and skillful in her moves, so that she would not be hurt by the enemy.

"You don't care about your life or death, the second prince, Xun Yu, you have to take care of him." Xun Zhi said firmly. He often heard reports from spies about how affectionate their mother and son are. If this is true, how could this crazy woman Regardless of his life or death?

Concubine Xian's body visibly shook, her hands lost focus, and she was stabbed in the back.As if stimulated, he stared at Xun Zhi fiercely, jumped out of the encirclement, approached his position, and said angrily, "He is your son! How ridiculous you are to threaten your enemy with your son's life!" to the end."

Xun Yu stood at the door and couldn't move. When he heard the movement outside, beads of sweat rolled down his stiff face. His heart was like an ant on a hot pot. He wanted to scream but couldn't.He only hoped that someone could untie his hole, and he only hoped that his mother would not be in danger.He listened to the piercing sound of weapons clashing outside in pain, and tears finally welled up in his eyes.Xun Yu, you are a waste, you are really useless, you can only hide in the room at critical moments, you let your mother fight outside helplessly, you will not help her, you will only hide in a woman behind!If this continues, she will die, and you will never see her again!No, mother can't die, what should I do if mother dies?Can anyone help me?Who can unlock the acupoints and let me out?

Xun Yu shouted in his heart, he didn't think about what he could do even if he relieved the acupoint, he didn't know how to help her, he didn't know anything!He only knew that he couldn't just watch her fall into danger, even if he died with her, it was better than being stuck here and doing nothing.

The green bacteria suddenly left from the crack of the door, walked up to the crowd of maids, and said eagerly: "General Mu rebelled, and the concubine Xian will definitely die. Once the concubine Xian dies, the maids of Liyang Palace will be escorted out. Buried alive."

The maid panicked for a while, as if she was completely shocked, she secretly cried, and panicked: "What should I do?"

The green fungus said: "Right now we can only ask the emperor's favorite Concubine Shu. As long as the master of Qingquan Palace is willing to take in one of us, there is still a chance for that person to survive. Now go through the back door quickly, I am here Look at the second prince."

After all the maids left, Green Fungus walked to the second prince, "Second prince, this servant will unlock the acupoints for you."

She can untie the hole?Fortunately, she can relieve acupuncture points!The rough fingers pressed against his body very forcefully, and he was suddenly able to speak.Xun Yu looked at her warily and said, "Why did you harm them?"

"Why did the second prince say that?"

"If you tell them to go to Qingquan Palace, Concubine Shu will kill them." Xun Yu frowned.

The green fungus was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "How can they not understand the truth that even a child understands? The servant girl just pointed out another way. If you go, you will die, and if you don't go, you will die. Death, why don't you choose a method of death that is better than being buried alive?" The maid said, leaving the second prince behind, and hurriedly left.Concubine Shu is pampered and willful, and has always regarded Concubine Xian as a thorn in her side. If she begs her, it will be a dead end. If she wants to live, she must beg someone else.

"Concubine Xian, you can't kill me!" Xun Zhi's indifferent voice came over, Xun Yu didn't even have time to grab his crutch, opened the door and limped out, and saw the mother who was fighting at a glance.

Concubine Xian was circling among the uniform Imperial Forest Army, blood overflowed from large and small wounds, she received another knife in her leg, and her lower body trembled uncontrollably.She knew that no matter how good her martial arts were, she would not be able to last long under the heavy siege. The reason why she was still alive until now was because the man said he wanted to catch her alive.Even if she tried her best, she couldn't kill him. She knew that she would die today, but even if she died, she didn't want to die uselessly. She would rather die in battle than be captured without a fight.

Xun Yu stared wide-eyed at everything in front of him, obviously he had already released the acupoint, but he felt completely silent, and the words that he wanted to shout out were stuck in his throat like fishbone.He stumbled and ran over, pushed anyone he saw, no matter who it was, knelt down in front of Xun Zhi, kowtowed one after another, each kowtowing harder than the other, his eyes were red, and his face was full of fear, "I beg your father!" Forgive Concubine Xian, I beg Father and Emperor to let her go, and my ministers can testify that Concubine Xian absolutely did not rebel, please forgive her!"

Concubine Xian froze when she heard the words, and looked at the child on the ground in surprise, as if she had been greatly stimulated, the dark red on the light-colored gown quickly spread from one point to the surroundings, she clenched the knife in her hand, feeling indignant looked at Xun Zhi intently.

"You testify?" Xun Zhi repeated strangely, as if he had heard the most ridiculous words, he walked up to him slowly, raised one foot and kicked him on the head violently, "Who is your father? What is your name?" Who is the father? What qualifications do you have to testify? Who are you? What proof have you done?"

Xun Yu hit his head on the ground, felt dizzy for a while, shook his head, and continued to crawl towards him.

Concubine Xian stopped the knife in her hand, choked up and shouted: "I don't want you to beg him! Get out of here, get out of here, and don't appear in front of me again!" She suppressed the pain in her heart and shouted, silly boy, you How could you ask him?Even if you beg a dog, it is more effective than begging him. Don't you understand your father's character?

Xun Yu shook his head vigorously. He knew that his mother didn't like to beg him, but no one could save his mother except him.He seemed to have completely forgotten that it was this person who wanted to kill her. He fantasized that begging him might change his mind. He hated his own incompetence. The only thing he could do was beg him desperately, even if there was a chance He wants to try too!

Xun Zhi didn't pay attention to him, a warm smile curled up on the corner of his mouth, he waved his hand, and slowly uttered three words, "Kill, no pardon!"
