General

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the imperial court resumed the daily morning court. The magnificent Longxiao Palace removed the red makeup of the old New Year, adding a bit of solemnity.

Lanjing and Lixuan go and return together day by day calmly, like glue like lacquer, they are incomparably affectionate, and the gentle eyes that inadvertently look at each other silently make all the civil and military officials of the court feel a little envious when they see each other.

For two days in a row, no record of the riots among the disaster victims in the four counties in the south of the Yangtze River was handed over to the court.

Li Xuan was impatient and couldn't sit still at night.Zhao Jianyong handed over two booklets every day, but it was as if nothing happened.Now it seems that these memorials must have been suppressed by the courier in the Secretary of Government Affairs, and Cheng Ao was still locked in a secret prison. If it continues to be delayed, I am afraid that there will be long nights and dreams.

At the moment, Lan Jing sat at the table indifferently, carefully carrying the jade chopsticks to serve Li Xuan's bowl with vegetables, and even put a bowl of jade bamboo and red sheep soup in front of him, and said with an ambiguous smile: "Husband You’ve been working hard these days, let’s have a bowl of tonic soup first~”

There was a faint blush on that fair little face, which looked delicate and lovely.

"Zhezi has been suppressed by the Secretary of Government Affairs, but the impeachment of Li Shouhong is imminent." Li Xuan pushed the small blue and white bowl to the middle of the table, and turned his head to look at Lan Jing with a serious expression. The situation is so urgent, but in his There was no trace of worry on his face.

"Drink the soup first." Lan Jing raised her eyebrows, thrust a spoon into his hand, and hummed softly, "I've already asked Ling Feng to do it..."

Li Xuan saw that he could not refuse, so he obediently raised his head and drank the tonic soup in one gulp, wiped the residual liquid from the corners of his lips, and continued to ask: "Ling Feng? What do you want him to do?"

"Tomorrow morning, you will know~"

Lan Jing curled her lips viciously, and a sly look flashed across her eyes.He picked up the white jade wine jug on the table and poured two glasses of fine wine, held one in his hand, and handed the other to Li Xuan, and said with a coquettish smile, "Please watch a good show..."

……

In the middle of the night, Longxiao Palace was completely silent. The patrolling guards each held their spears and shuttled neatly between the deep palace gardens. The palace lanterns hanging under the eaves reflected the bright and shadowed faces, making them look more solemn. majesty.

In the dormitory of the commander of the Forbidden Army Battalion, Chu Xiao put on a nightgown and sat in front of the table after a brief grooming, holding a dilapidated ancient book in her hand, carefully flipping through it.The already yellowed paper was filled with fine and dense small characters, but it was so fragile that it seemed that it would shatter with a little force.

"Unexpectedly, one move to defeat the enemy!" Under the bright candlelight, Chu Xiao propped her head on one hand, and while watching, she was still praising something, her expression was extremely focused.

Ling Feng easily avoided all the patrolling Imperial Forest Army outside the hall, hung upside down between Chu Xiao's window sills and looked in quietly, only to see Chu Xiao was reading at night by candlelight, with that ice face that was usually expressionless at the moment. With a little bit of excitement, the eyes staring at the ancient books were also shining brightly, looking extremely alluring.

His eyes fell on the table in front of Chu Xiao. A black iron saber that he never left his hand was silently lying beside him. The exquisite carvings on the scabbard were in full bloom under the flickering candles, quietly gathering a touch of colorful beauty. shimmer.

Ling Feng suddenly became playful, and quietly pulled out a sharp portable dagger, pushed open the wooden window, and turned into Chu Xiao's bedroom with only a slight movement.

"Who!!"

With an incomparably cold shout, a vigorous figure has jumped in front of Ling Feng in an instant.At this moment, Ling Feng was wrapped in black clothes, his face was covered with black cloth, and even his weapon was replaced with a black iron dagger, Chu Xiao couldn't tell the difference at all.Just looking at his attire at this time, he immediately recognized his identity as an assassin, so he unsheathed his long sword and mercilessly went straight to Ling Feng's vital point.

Whoa!Are you serious? !

I wanted to make a joke to tease this serious wooden lump, but instead I was taken aback by his biting killing intent.Ling Feng didn't want to attract the attention of the patrolling guards, so he quickly mobilized his inner strength to close the wooden window behind him tightly, then rolled on the ground, and quickly fled to the middle of the room.

Chu Xiao rushed to nothing, but was startled all over.What is the background of this person?Facing his fast and ruthless sword move, he still managed to close the window? ?

The situation was urgent and one should not think too much. In the bright bedroom, the assassin jumped up from a carp on the ground, and the dagger in his hand gleamed faintly in the candlelight.

Chu Xiao stared at Ling Feng for a moment with a face as heavy as water. The missed blow just now made his eyes faintly burst into anger. Although he was somehow familiar with this man, but now he still can't care about it. This much, just took up a sword flower again, and rushed forward fiercely.

Seeing that he was using all his strength, Ling Feng also fought with him carefully.Fighting against each other, each showed their supernatural powers. The elegance of the long sword and the dexterity of the short dagger were fully displayed in the fight between the two flying up and down.

Chu Xiao went in without knowing it, and she didn't show mercy at all. After fighting with him for a while, Ling Feng basically figured out his details, and gradually, she became able to handle it with ease.He smiled mischievously, patted his leg while hitting him, and raised his hand, as if he wanted to give him some pointers on his moves, but it seemed like he was teasing him deliberately.

This made Chu Xiao very angry, very angry!

The more casual Ling Feng behaved, the more angry he became.Although there was no trace of clues on that wooden face, there was always a smoldering fire in his heart, and he swung his long sword as if venting, and attacked Ling Feng head-on and face-to-face, and even the offensive became more fierce.
