I wish for a long time

When Ye Jiu raised his head, the tip of the sword had already reached her chest.

"Father!"

A clear and beautiful voice suddenly sounded beside her, and Chu Shangzhang was affected, and the blade was deflected a little, Ye Jiu tilted to the side, and the sword slid past her armpit.

Even so, the sharp edge of the sword still made a gash in her ribs.

Ye Jiu gritted her teeth and hurriedly took two steps back. She looked at the man in black who suddenly appeared in front of her out of the corner of her eye, and felt that his figure looked familiar.

It's just that this person is masked, so she can't tell who it is, just looking at his figure, it should be a woman.

"Father must not be arrogant, he is still useful to us!"

Chu Shangzhang's hand holding the sword paused slightly, he squinted his eyes and glanced at the man in black, and said coldly, "Are you teaching me how to do things?"

Hearing the words, the man in black immediately knelt down, raised his head, and said anxiously: "I dare not, but this Zhenyuanhou... Zhenyuanhou is the emperor's right-hand man, and he must know many secrets. Keeping him will not only control Hou Mansion, you can also help King Mu."

Chu Shangzhang hesitated when he heard the words, he looked at Ye Jiu, then at the man in black, and suddenly said:

"Are you really planning for the prince?"

The man in black quickly kowtowed, "The subordinates are sincere, and I hope my adoptive father will see clearly."

Chu Shangzhang looked at the man in black seriously for a while, then put away his sword, "Then you will watch him."

"Yes."

Looking at the two of them, Ye Jiu couldn't help but twitch his brows. It's really strange that someone would save his life at this juncture.

Anyway, she won't die for a while, and at this moment, she is more concerned about the safety of that "Chu Shishen".

Ye Jiu struggled to get up, only to see that the men in black and Zhuge's men fought together in twos and threes in the empty arena, and the bright yellow figure was being driven up the steps.

Chu Shangzhang was overjoyed, and hurried down a few steps, his tone a little impatient, "Is the person still alive?"

The soldier raised his head and replied, "Master, he was shot in the back by an arrow and passed out."

A smile appeared on Chu Shangzhang's face, "Okay, okay, tie it up for me."

When Ye Jiu heard this, her face flushed with anxiety, she hurriedly crawled two steps towards the steps, but was blocked by a sword.

"You can't go."

Ye Jiu glanced at her, ignored her, and insisted on crawling forward.

After a sword sound, the blade touched her neck.

Ye Jiu suddenly lost his temper. This was the countless times today that someone had his neck smeared. If she hadn't been unable to punch him, she would have exploded on the spot.

"If you want to kill or slash, please listen and respect!"

She didn't know where the courage came from, and she pushed the long sword away with her head, and even made a muffled sound of collision.

She bravely continued to climb forward, but unexpectedly found that the sword retreated slightly with her movements.

Ye Jiu was puzzled, and subconsciously raised his head to look at the man, only to see the man in black looking at her fixedly, with only a pair of exposed eyes showing a hint of helplessness.

The man in black noticed Ye Jiu's gaze and quickly covered it up. She stopped Ye Jiu again, but this time she didn't use a sword, but her hands.

"You can't go."

The man in black deliberately lowered his voice, but Ye Jiu could still hear the softness in her voice.

"Trash! They're all trash! This is the emperor? This is your emperor!!"

Suddenly Chu Shangzhang shouted violently from under the steps, and Ye Jiu couldn't care less about the man in black beside him when he heard the words, struggling to run over.

Chu Shangzhang was so angry that his eyes were red, he kicked the unconscious person out, and the bright yellow figure rolled down the steps quickly like a kite with a broken string.

"You will die if you go!"

Seeing that Ye Jiu was about to pounce on her, the man in black stretched out his hand to pinch her shoulders, his voice raised a bit, "Father is now dazzled by anger, your going will only make him more angry!"

Ye Jiu looked at the bright yellow figure lying on his back under the stage from the edge of the railing, revealing Xue Yuning's pale and lifeless face, and his eye circles turned red for a moment.

"Then let me watch... woo woo."

The man in black stretched out his hand to cover Ye Jiu's mouth, looking at Ye Jiu's scarlet eyes with hatred, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes.

"I don't want to knock you out, please be quiet for a while, just for a while, okay?"

Ye Jiu suddenly stopped struggling.

The moment the man in black approached her, a faint fragrance of flowers floated into her nose along with the wind of her palm.

This aroma seems somewhat familiar.

It seemed that there was a time when she could smell this fragrance every day.

There is also some hard touch on this finger.

Ye Jiu's eyes slowly opened wide, looking at the man in black with a hint of inquiry and surprise.

At this moment, the sound of iron hooves stepping over the bluestone slab resounded throughout the prayer hall, and at the same time, a deep voice echoed around:

"All the officers and men obey the order, capture Chu Shangzhang alive, and rescue His Majesty! Anyone who makes trouble will be killed!"

"Yes!!"

The majestic momentum unique to soldiers hit everyone's hearts like a boulder. Hearing this voice, Ye Jiu was so excited that he almost burst into tears.

Chu Shangzhang took two steps back in a daze, and before he could fight with him, the armored soldier turned over and held his throat.He looked at the shadow of the lightsaber around him, his hands trembled, and with a "bang", the sword fell on the white marble.

"Your Majesty, please show up!"

"Son!!"

A familiar voice came from a distance, and only a light was seen. The man in black in front of him suddenly let out a painful cry, and then fell to the side.

"Young master, are you alright!"

The visitor looked Ye Jiu up and down, and when he saw the blood dripping from her body, a trace of remorse appeared on his face.

"Dong... Dongfei??"

Ye Jiu didn't expect that the person who appeared in front of her was actually Dong Fei.

She turned her mind a little bit, and quickly asked: "You are all okay, Qingchi is not at the house, have you..."

Dong Fei nodded, then shook her head again: "It's hard to explain this matter, young master, let's talk about it when we go back."

Ye Jiu also knew that this was not the time to talk, as long as he knew they were okay.

She suddenly thought of something, and took a quick look to the side, only to find that besides a pool of bright red blood, the man in black had disappeared.

"Dong Fei, where was that person just now?"

Dong Fei looked around twice, a little stunned, "No... I don't know, I was patronizing you just now, Young Master, and I didn't pay attention..."

Ye Jiu frowned, then she stood up with Dong Fei's strength and looked down the steps.

In the distance, Chu Shishen appeared on the square at some point, and in his arms was the unconscious Xue Yuning, and beside him were two accompanying imperial physicians.

"Dong Fei, help me down."

Now Ye Jiu could tear the wound with just one breath, she tried to take a step, but her eyes were flustered, so she could only ask Dong Fei for help.

It's just that she called out, but found that no one answered at all.

She turned her head and saw Dong Fei staring at something in a daze with her head down.

"Dong Fei?"

Dong Fei regained consciousness as if awakened, he moved his eyes away from the pool of blood on the ground, glanced behind Ye Jiu, and quickly supported her.

"Son..."

Ye Jiu's thoughts were all on Xue Yuning, so he responded casually, "Huh?"

Dongfei hesitated for a moment, and finally pursed her lips and said, "Your blood...why is it black..."

Ye Jiu's body froze visibly, she looked at Shang Dongfei's very probing eyes, she dodged her eyes, and joked, "It's nothing, it's oxidized."

"Nurtured... nurtured?"

Dong Fei was at a loss, but before Ye Jiu could explain again, a burst of wild laughter suddenly sounded beside the two of them.

Ye Jiu picked out his ears, looked at Chu Shangzhang who was suppressed and kneeling on the ground not far away, and sneered:

"We'll settle the accounts slowly in a while."

Chu Shangzhang still laughed wildly, and even burst into tears.

"You are all here, it's good that you are all here, it's good that you are all here."

Seeing him crazy, Ye Jiu didn't want to talk to him at all. What she cares about most now is whether Xue Yuning still has the spirit.

But as soon as she took a step, she heard Chu Shangzhang's cold and gloomy voice:

"Your gift has not been delivered yet."

Ye Jiu froze immediately, she thought about the whole thing carefully, and suddenly found that an important person was missing.

She immediately grabbed Dong Fei's arm and said anxiously, "Where is King Mu? Has anyone seen King Mu?"

Dong Fei was taken aback by the question, but before he could ask other people, a man who looked like a cavalryman rushed towards Chu Shishen.

"Your Majesty is not well. There was an explosion in a Liangzhuang village in Nancheng, and the guards opened the city to get water to put out the fire. As a result..."

Chu Shishen's eyes turned cold instantly, and he shouted, "What's the result?"

"Forcibly rushed by...by a team of soldiers and horses!"

……

Hou Mansion, Xi He Tang.

Today's Hou Mansion is extraordinarily quiet and full.

Almost all the nuns, maids, servants and servants in the mansion gathered here.

Qi Shao'an and Mrs. Lin sat in the upper two seats respectively, relatively silent, not saying a word.

Even Xi Ning and Song Chuxun, who were sick in bed, came and sat in the corner of Xihe Hall, but they kept silent.

It was past noon, and there were quite a few dishes in the side hall, but upon closer inspection, they all looked untouched.

"Hui Madam, Young Madam, there is still no movement outside the city, it seems that the praying for the new year is not over yet."

Mrs. Lin frowned when she heard the words, "Go and investigate again."

Qi Shaoan saw that Madam Lin's complexion was not right, so she asked aloud: "Mother, what's wrong?"

Mrs. Lin glanced at her, and said slowly: "In previous years, Sheng Jia would have returned before noon, why is it this time today, and there is still no shadow."

After hearing this, Qi Shao'an felt a little uncertain, if everything went well, it stands to reason that they should have returned, but if it didn't go well, it would be too peaceful inside and outside the city.

"Wait, wait, wait..."

Grandma Sun stood beside Mrs. Lin, her face was full of worry, she murmured as if to comfort herself.

Qi Shao'an glanced at her, and clenched the purple pouch in his hand tighter and tighter.

She scanned the people in the room lightly, except for Ajiu, Uncle Bai, and Dong Fei, everyone in the whole house is here, which also means that she has more responsibilities on her shoulders.

Song Chuxun nestled in the corner, playing with a red Chinese knot with both hands, she lowered her head, losing her former vitality.

Xue Jingning stood by her side, shaking his fan gently. He looked at Song Chuxun's listless look, and his brows never relaxed.

No matter how deep Ye Jiu kept it, with his tacit understanding for so long, and the expressions of Miss Qi and Mrs. Lin, he could still make a rough guess.

Presumably there will be major events happening in the capital, or major events that Ye Jiu may be too busy to take care of in his current position.

Xue Jingning looked at Song Chuxun who was huddled on the chair, and sighed softly in his heart.

Maybe it's hard to escape today, maybe tomorrow's world will be turned upside down, so what.

Fortunately, at this moment, I can still be with her.

Song Chuxun looked at the Chinese knot, and his mind wandered far, far away.

When it came to the Flower Festival that year, that green dress lay down into her heart along the autumn water.

Floating into the dancing flowers all over the sky, the pounding heart that landed in her arms.

Floating under the dim yellow light, the light and mellow wine smell mixed with slippery.

Floating to the Lanyin Pavilion in the first month of the lunar year, the green clothes are getting farther and farther away, but I am left with the piercing but helpless pain.

Floating, floating, the eye sockets are astringent, and the rolling water drops rustle down.

Xue Yuning, you bastard.

Song Chuxun squeezed his palm hard, circled his knees, and bit his lower lip tightly.

If you don't come back alive to see me, I'll definitely take your skin off.

Qi Shao'an's gaze quietly fell outside the door, but his heart was already overwhelmed.At this moment, she suddenly felt a little envious of Song Chuxun, who could express her emotions wantonly without worrying about other people's eyes.

She sighed slightly in her heart.

Whether it's Yu Ning, Jing Ning, or A Jiu, they all want to protect her and keep her away from the hustle and bustle.

But Chu Xun is good at observing words and expressions, and she can figure out some things even if they don't say them.

It's just that she didn't want to worry others, and pretended not to know.

Qi Shao'an secretly squeezed her pouch tightly, feeling some stitches pressed against her palm, her impetuous heart was relieved a little, and she forcibly held back the tears in her eyes.

"Boom-!!"

Suddenly there was a loud noise from the sky, followed by several noises, everyone in the room was startled, Qi Shaoan even stood up directly, and walked quickly towards the door.

"Madam, Young Madam, it's not good. The south of the city seems to be blown up. There's a lot of smoke and a big fire."

The boy came to report in a hurry, and everyone panicked and whispered.

Qi Shao'an thought for a moment, and then ordered: "Order all the government soldiers, don't panic, and stand by for orders."

"Yes!"

Mrs. Lin tapped the handle a few times, her face slowly sank, "It seems to have moved."

Qi Shaoan turned her head halfway, she understood what Mrs. Lin meant, but she didn't know what those people would do next.

"Report! There are a large number of soldiers and horses on the street, and it seems that some are heading towards the house!"

As soon as the boy finished speaking, the expressions of everyone in the room changed.

"Pass down the order, no matter what, guard the gate of the mansion, and wait for the support of Lord Hou or Mr. Bai!" Mrs. Lin also stood up and ordered in a deep voice.

"Ma'am, let me go."

At some point, Xi Ning stood behind the two of them, holding a sword in her hand, her face was silent.

Madam Lin didn't even look at her: "Xining, go back and sit down."

Xi Ning frowned, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Qi Shaoan, "Miss Xi Ning, you are still injured, just listen to your mother, go back and rest."

Then she took a deep breath, turned and stepped out the door.

"An'er?" Sun Nanny didn't know what she meant, and hurriedly called out.

Mrs. Lin also looked at her, frowning in silence.

Qi Shao'an turned her head and smiled softly, "My husband hasn't heard from you yet, I have to guard this Marquis Mansion for her."

Mrs. Lin walked forward with a cold face, but was also stopped by Qi Shaoan, "This time the mother will wait here, and the daughter-in-law will just go."

Qi Shaoan bent the corners of his lips, and the corners of his eyes were wet, and said softly:

"So, it's like fighting alongside her."
