kill that paranoid emperor
Chapter 20
Things always progress very suddenly. Su Rong was about to put an arrow on the string, but there were a few shadows passing by in front of his eyes. There was a sound of swords clashing, and the muffled sound of swords entering the body. Su Rong frowned, and soon saw the person in front of him. The assassin poured a large piece.
Yue Sheng was always followed by the blood knife of the dark guard, and the people who came to assassinate him probably didn't expect it.
"Don't keep one?" Su Rong turned his face back and asked him.
Yue Sheng's eyes fell on the corpses of those assassins, without any warmth: "No, I can't ask anything."
His voice was understated, but Su Rong could hear the hidden anger in it.
Presumably, this is not the first time this has happened.
When the two returned to the starting point, the hunting camp was in chaos.
Ji Fu was particularly nervous, with veins popping out of his neck, he shouted in a sharp voice, "Where's Your Majesty? Why hasn't Your Majesty come back yet?"
On Xixia's side, Chu Jing had already led the team back. At this time, he waved his fan and watched the excitement without hesitation: "Maybe he lost his way."
Ji Fu glared at him angrily: "Impossible! Your Majesty never gets lost!"
Nuo Min led the Turks back to the camp, jumped off his horse, still holding a bunch of his prey, curled his lips and said, "Don't worry about your Majesty."
"It is estimated that your Majesty is doing such a thing in the forest, how can you come out so quickly." He said.
Ji Fu looked puzzled: "What does the fifth prince mean?"
Chu Jing covered her face with her fan, coughed with a suppressed smile, and said nothing.
Nuo Min rolled her eyes: "Didn't your majesty bring a sycophant inside, and I bumped into it."
After thinking about it for a long time, Ji Fu realized that Nuo Min meant that Yue Sheng took Su Rong to hunt, and maybe he was still doing some shady things in the forest, so he came back so slowly.
The eunuch who had been with Yue Cheng since he was a child was furious. After holding back for a while, he said, "Impossible! Your Majesty doesn't like men at all!"
Su Rong just came back: "..."
Yue Sheng: "..."
"Isn't this here?" Chu Jing caught a glimpse of Su Rong's figure, shook his fan, and said with a smile, "What's the hurry?"
Ji Fu was relieved to see Yue Sheng riding on the horse in good condition.
At the end, he gave Su Rong a dissatisfied look.
It's this Fang Xuelan who looks like a monster, that caused His Majesty to be misunderstood by so many people!
Su Rong simply scanned the surrounding people, and everyone behaved normally, and it was completely impossible to see whether it was related to the assassination.
Nuo Min came over, glanced at Su Rong's clothes, and suddenly said, "What's wrong with you?"
Su Rong was startled, followed his gaze and lowered his head, and found that there were a few dark drops of blood on his trouser legs, which should have been splashed unintentionally when he killed the assassin with a blood knife.
Su Rong knew what was going on in his heart, but he didn't say it. He just said lightly: "It's nothing, it might be the blood of wild animals."
Nuo Min frowned and thought for a while, then looked at Su Rong, then at Yue Sheng behind him, and said to Yue Sheng, "Your Majesty, you are too rough."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Su Rong with pity, as if looking at a poor delicate flower that was ruthlessly destroyed.
Su Rong: "?"
Yue Sheng didn't bother to pay attention to him at all, and said coldly: "It has nothing to do with you."
He got off the horse and hugged Su Rong down again. The courtiers of the Great Yin and the Turkic people from Xixia and Turks around them were so shocked today that they were already numb. They all watched Yue Sheng and Su Rong leave with dumb faces.
A colorful tent was set up in the hunting ground. After Yue Sheng entered, he asked someone to cook sour plum soup. Then he looked down at Su Rong who was sitting on the couch, and suddenly asked, "Why didn't you explain?"
Although Yue Sheng has always been ignorant of customs, he is not a fool, and can hear the meaning behind what everyone says.
If he didn't open his mouth to explain, it was because he still wanted to put Fang Xuelan by his side to test it out, so what about Fang Xuelan?
Yue Cheng's dark eyes were extremely deep, no matter who looked in, they couldn't guess his thoughts.
Su Rong rested in the cool tent for a while, and finally his head didn't hurt so much.
He raised his eyes and lazily said, "Is there anything to explain."
The human heart is the most difficult thing to explain. If it is explained today, there will be even more absurd guesses tomorrow.
Yue Sheng put Fang Xuelan by his side, it was inconceivable at first, since Yue Sheng was not in a hurry to explain, then why was he "Fang Xuelan" in a hurry?
What's more, Su Rong stayed by Yue Sheng's side and had more important things to do.
During the past few days, Su Rong has been testing everyone around Yue Sheng, except for Ji Fu, who refuses to be soft and hard, and the other eunuchs and court ladies who showed their faces three years ago and Su Rong still remembers, all of them are one by one. I took the opportunity to ask.
But I don't know if it was too long, or because Yue Sheng handled the matter of New Year's Eve too cleanly, Su Rong basically didn't ask anything useful.
It was not in vain, at least Su Rong figured it out, if he wanted to know the truth of the year, maybe he could only ask Yue Sheng.
After the hunt, the eyes of everyone looking at Su Rong became more complicated.
Su Rong didn't care, but what made him feel strange was that Yue Sheng also became a little inexplicable.
One time when he was summoned to have lunch with him, the moment Su Rong saw Yue Sheng, the expression on Su Rong's face became indescribable.
Yue Sheng changed into the black uniform he always wore on weekdays. Now he was wearing a crimson robe, sitting at the table expressionlessly, with a cold demeanor and a sense of inexplicable weirdness.
Su Rong tentatively asked, "What's your Majesty doing today..."
Yue Cheng looked at him, pursed his lips lightly, and said, "Not good-looking?"
It's not that Su Rong has never seen Yuecheng wearing other colors, but the clothes of the Great Yin Emperor are mostly black, and Yuecheng is cold-tempered, so he rarely orders the Shangyi Bureau to make other clothes, so it's hard for servants to speculate His mind was completely black.
Today's Yue Sheng... is quite special.
"I thought you didn't like black." Yue Sheng said calmly, although there was no movement on his face, his fingers under the sleeves of his robe were slightly clenched.
Su Rong used to be quite picky. Clothes should not be dyed and printed, but should be embroidered by hand; the fabric should not be thick and heavy, but light and elegant; The knuckles and the hem of the clothes cannot be shorter than two inches above the sole of the boot...
Su Rong sat down and said casually, "It doesn't matter."
Yue Sheng lowered his eyelashes and gave a low hum.
"Your Majesty will look good in whatever clothes you wear," Su Rong knew Yue Sheng's smooth nature, and said calmly, "You don't have to care too much about other people's opinions."
Yue Sheng was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked again: "Doesn't this body look good today?"
Su Rong looked at him with his chin in his hands, wanting to laugh a little.
He has grown up so much, Yue Sheng sometimes, why is he still like a whimsical brat, this appearance of not giving up until he is praised, is really nostalgic.
"Looks good," Su Rong said lazily, "Your Majesty is much prettier than others."
Yue Sheng turned his eyes away, not making eye contact with him: "Let's eat."
Su Rong just wanted to tease him: "Your Majesty is shy?"
Yue Sheng picked up a chopstick of food, and said in a calm tone, "After eating, I will take you somewhere."
Su Rong: "Is Your Majesty feeling shy?"
"..." Yue Sheng put down his chopsticks, turned his eyes slightly, looked directly at Su Rong, and said coldly, "Fang Xuelan, you are too courageous."
Su Rong snorted lightly.
Yue Sheng continued to eat expressionlessly, but felt that the tips of his ears were a little hot.
With a dull face, he brought herbal tea from the side, and took several sips to suppress the embarrassment.
If Fang Xuelan wasn't Su Rong... Yue Cheng thought gloomyly, then this person would surely die.
After eating, Yue Sheng really took Su Rong out of the hall.
When he came to the wide Yuqing Pool, Su Rong asked suspiciously: "Your Majesty, what are we going to do?"
Yue Sheng took a wooden sword handed over by the guard, and said calmly, "Practice the sword."
Su Rong: "Huh?"
Yue Cheng looked at him with deep black eyes: "Gu promised to teach you how to learn swords."
Su Rong thought for a while before he remembered that it was not long after he was appointed as the imperial guard that Yue Sheng said that he would ask someone to teach him how to practice the sword.
But this little brat didn't say he wanted to fight himself!
Su Rong's expression remained unchanged, and he blinked: "Your Majesty taught me how to practice sword?"
Yue Sheng lowered his head slightly, watching his slender and curly eyelashes fluttering up and down, and wanted to reach out his fingertips to touch them, to feel the soft touch.
"Yeah." Yue Sheng said.
The smile on Su Rong's lips faded.
If the appearance can be changed, the clothes can be changed, and the handwriting can be forged, then there will still be clues revealed in the details.
In fact, Su Rong had already noticed the subtle changes in Yue Sheng, and guessed that he might have doubts about his identity.
But suspicion is one thing, and confirmation is another. Since Yue Sheng hasn't asked directly, it means he is still probing.
Yue Sheng handed Su Rong a well-made wooden sword and said, "Take it."
Su Rong shook his head: "I don't want to learn."
The basic skills are not solid, what kind of sword is practiced.
Yue Sheng's voice was cold, without any fluctuation: "If you don't learn, you have to learn."
Su Rong: "..."
Why didn't he realize before that Yue Sheng had such a strong personality?
In the eyes of Su Rong in the past, Yue Sheng was like a child who could not grow up most of the time, with a bad temper and impulsiveness, but once he was taught a lesson, he quickly faded away, and he rarely confronted Su Rong.
Yue Sheng opened his mouth at this time, and the rest of the palace people were far away, and at this time there were only the two of them beside the sparkling Qingchi.Yue Sheng said, "Look."
Perhaps in order to avoid hurting Su Rong, Yue Sheng also had a wooden sword in his hand.
Su Rong glanced at it inadvertently, and found that the workmanship was rough, not as good as the one in his hand, but somehow it looked familiar.
Yue Sheng's movements were very casual, but still fierce and aggressive. He simply held a wooden sword in his hand, like holding a long sword with a cold light, with extraordinary momentum.
Su Rong looked at it for a while, then suddenly frowned.
Yue Sheng's moves are very simple, but also changeable. If someone who doesn't know martial arts uses them, it will not only be difficult but also difficult to control.
But what Su Rong was worried about was not this problem, what he was thinking about was...
This set of swordsmanship was created by Su Rong based on Yue Sheng's characteristics and combined with traditional routines. Although it is not difficult, it is estimated that only Yue Sheng and Su Rong in the world can use it.
And Yue Sheng's move at this time is the first move of this set of swordsmanship, "warm and cold".
A person may be able to cover up everything on the outside, but it is difficult to change some inner and deep-rooted habits.
——For example, Su Rong's habit of using a sword for more than 20 years.
Yue Sheng stopped his movements, turned his head to look at Su Rong who was silent at the side, and said, "Come here, Gu will teach you."
The author has something to say: Thanks to the little angel who threw the landmine: 1 Tianyi;
Thank you very much for your support, I will continue to work hard!
Yue Sheng was always followed by the blood knife of the dark guard, and the people who came to assassinate him probably didn't expect it.
"Don't keep one?" Su Rong turned his face back and asked him.
