I am neither beautiful nor crazy

People around watched Xiao Xiangling rush in, but they couldn't stop them, and they didn't dare to enter.They had no choice but to frantically splash water outside the hall, all of them were anxious, for fear that if the three of them died inside, their own lives would also be lost.

"General Xiao, General Xiao is out!"

I don't know who shouted, and everyone looked up.

I saw Xiao Xiangling dressed in black, striding out of the fire scene.The sky was full of flames burning behind him, reflecting his tall and mighty body, and the charm under the silver mask was outstanding.

The soaking cloak he was wearing had already been taken off by him, wrapping around a person who did not know his life or death.The prince was carried on his shoulder with one hand.

With three lives in one body, like a god.

Everyone had never felt the joy of the rest of their life like this at this moment. They were stunned for a few seconds to react, and then rushed forward to help.

Gu Yuan, who rushed over in a hurry, heard that his highness was also in the fire, and was about to rush in without saying a word, when he saw Xiao Xiangling who ran out wrapped in Jiang Yu.

"It's... the guard of the seventh prince's mansion." Xiao Xiangling put down the person in the cloak, and said hoarsely to Gu Yuan.

Gu Yuan paused, but fortunately he had known Jiang Yu's nature for many years, so he hurriedly said, "Please send him back to the palace first, the general, I'll go find the imperial physician."

In the uterus of the Seven Emperors.

Xiao Xiangling put Jiang Yu on the couch in the side hall and coughed a few times.

The state of Jiangyu is very bad.

The already pale skin is now even more bloodless.Lips chapped, eyes shut.

The nails, the neckline, the corners of the mouth, and the pinnae of the ears were covered with gray-black smoke and ashes, and the original color of the white clothes had long been lost. There were many burning wounds all over the body, and even breathing and heartbeat were extremely weak.

Or with the movement of struggling, the blood jade on the chest was exposed outside the collar, and the color became brighter after being burned by the fire, with a coquettish and malicious awe.

Xiao Xiangling stared at the defenseless comatose person, couldn't help approaching, and then carefully stroked the jade on Jiang Yu's chest with his right hand.

It was very cold.

The moment they touched each other, there seemed to be a strong emotion pouring out, and it quickly spread along the handover point, spreading to all the limbs.

And the memories of the past that were deliberately suppressed rushed to my mind.

——Heavy rain, blood, and the person who fell to the ground and didn't have time to see him for the last time.

Xiao Xiangling clenched his fists subconsciously, his joints were almost paranoid pale due to the strain.

He cannot die.

Except for the unforgettable stabbing pain in his memory, Xiao Xiangling never had such a strong obsession, wanting to wake up a person immediately.

And since that time, I can't count how many springs and autumns have passed...

Where is he?

Xiao Xiangling closed his eyes, sighed slightly, reached into the outer shirt on his chest, and carefully took out a small object.

It was an extremely plain black sachet, and the thread tied at the seal had long been worn dull and was about to break.

"General Xiao, the imperial physician is here!"

Gu Yuan's voice came from behind.Xiao Xiangling quickly put the sachet into his arms, and when he turned his head again, his expression was no different from usual.

Xiao Xiangling was so anxious that he didn't even notice that the imperial physician was kneeling on the side of the collapse to diagnose Jiang Yu's pulse.Ordinary prince's guards will definitely not be treated like this.

"How?" he asked.

There was a hint of surprise on the imperial doctor's face. He turned around and cupped his hands to Xiao Xiangling, "Go back to the general, Seventh Hall... This servant in His Royal Highness's house was seriously burned. The gray smoke inhaled due to suffocation has penetrated into the heart veins, and there are burns all over his body." Multiple burns, great risk of infection."

Xiao Xiangling clenched her teeth tightly, staring fixedly at the person lying on the couch.

"This kind of injury should be a fatal injury, but the strange thing is..." the imperial physician continued, "It seems that there is a kind of gentle energy and blood flowing in His Highness... the meridians of the guards in His Highness's house seem to have the effect of rest and recovery. "

"And as for whether he can wake up, and how he will recover after waking up... this Shuchen can't guarantee it."

Xiao Xiangling stood facing Jiangyu all the time, and didn't say yes or no to the imperial physician's answer.

The imperial physician arched his hands and bowed his waist, but he didn't dare to back down, and he didn't even dare to look up into the general's eyes.

Rumor has it that the Great General of Northern Xinjiang was decisive in killing and attacking. On the battlefield, an epee is invincible.Money, power, beauty, nothing can enter his eyes.

And he was standing here in silence at this moment, the imperial doctor only felt that his heart and liver were being hung up, and his calves were trembling slightly.

Seeing that Xiao Xiangling hadn't spoken for a long time, Gu Yuan gestured to the imperial physician, and the two walked out together.

He bowed deeply to the imperial physician, and said, "Just now you said in front of General Xiao that His Royal Highness's illness is true, is it true?"

"I don't dare to be false." The imperial physician replied, "I will do my best to save His Highness the Seventh Highness. From now on, I will take medicine soup three times a day. I still need to trouble the young master to take care of it carefully."

"But..." the imperial physician hesitated to speak, "I don't know if I should ask a question. Why did you call His Highness a bodyguard in front of General Xiao?"

Gu Yuan was taken aback for a moment, and then he curled the corners of his mouth tiredly, "I don't know about this, maybe His Highness thinks it's so...interesting."

"..."

"He is seventeen this year, and he has not yet reached the weak crown." Gu Yuan sighed softly, "He is still a child."

At the same time, in the palace.

What happened one after another these days made the emperor's temples seem to turn white overnight.

He was nearly sixty years old, and he had worked his whole life for state affairs, no matter how shrewd and capable he was, it would be hard for him to be like a dead man.

He supported his forehead with one hand and leaned on the dragon chair, his eyes were cloudy, as if he might fall asleep at any moment.

Under the main hall, only Xia Zhixing stood with his hands folded.

"Xia Aiqing, you have followed me...for more than 20 years."

Xia Zhixing's muscles stiffened.

He originally thought that at this juncture, the emperor summoned him for the case of the file and the fire in the Prince's Palace, but he didn't want to start with such an unclear sentence.

The heart of a king should not be speculated.

He knelt down in the hall and said, "I have followed Your Majesty for more than twenty years, and the world can learn from my loyalty. From now on, I will definitely follow Your Majesty to the death."

"Get up." The emperor glanced at the kneeling man, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Talk about the past with me..."

"Your Majesty... please tell me."

"Ai Qing thinks, what's wrong with my bestowing death on Concubine Yang?"

Xia Zhixing was dripping with cold sweat at that time, and said in panic, "Your Majesty enforces the law impartially and impartially, there is nothing wrong with it."

The emperor shook his head slightly, his cloudy eyes penetrated the palace gate, as if he saw the time when the two first met decades ago.

At that time, he was in the prime of life, and he went to northern Xinjiang to look for it in private, and he caught a glimpse of the heroic and heroic princess of northern Xinjiang riding on the hunting ground.

She is not as gentle and weak as the women in the Central Plains. The cold wind blows her better than the fiery red dress.She fully drew the bowstring on the horse's back, as if shooting casually.

Hit the bullseye!

At that time, the emperor only felt that the arrow shot straight into his heart.

"I heard that Jiang Yu didn't die from the poisonous wine at the palace banquet. Today, when the Prince's Palace was on fire, he rushed in to save people. Is there such a thing?"

He didn't give Xia Zhixing a chance to answer, but he smiled, and that smile was full of desolation and self-deprecating, "There was a fire in the palace of the prince, and none of the princes, maids and servants dared to give up their lives to save them. But only him."

He laughed louder, "It's actually him."

The emperor laughed until tears came out, Xia Zhixing knelt down and shook into sieves.

"As expected of Ruoyang's son, even though Ruoyang never raised him, his stubborn temper and disposition are exactly the same." The emperor said with a bit of sentimentality, "Xia Aiqing, tell me, Ruoyang died on the day of his death." On the same day, the prime minister was poisoned to death by poisonous wine, and Jiang Yu vomited black blood but was still intact. Today, the Prince’s Palace caught fire again..."

"Is it retribution?"

"Your Majesty is holy!" Xia Zhixing shouted, "Don't listen to karma and other sorcerer's words. Your Majesty cares about the common people, and the dragon's body will be healthy, and the dynasty will prosper forever."

The emperor was silent for a long time, and then gradually recovered from the past, he continued to ask, "I won't mention this matter anymore. Tell me about the fire in the Prince's Palace. How is the situation?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the prince is safe. The fire was obviously deliberately set up by someone who is unruly, and I am still investigating thoroughly. It's just that at the same time as the fire broke out, an assassin was found in the palace of the Seventh Prince! Fortunately, His Royal Highness was not in the palace at the time. Only survived!"

assassin!

The emperor suddenly realized a problem.

The poisoned wine at the palace banquet was obviously someone who intentionally harmed Jiang Yu, but Jiang Yu was not poisoned to death, so that person would definitely not let it go.

On the surface, the fire in the Prince's Hall was aimed at the Prince, but in fact, all attention and manpower were directed to the Prince's Hall, leaving no one in the Jiangyu Hall to pay attention, thus sending assassins to assassinate him.

Kill two birds with one stone.

The emperor's heart tightened, and he said angrily, "Can the assassin be caught? How will he entertain him?"

"Return to Your Majesty, the assassin was so bold that he kept his mouth shut no matter how tortured he was. He had to say..." Xia Zhixing paused, "He had to see His Majesty with his own eyes before he could confess."

"Bring him up!"

The assassin kneeling on the hall had already been tortured to the point of dying. From the palace gate to the center of the hall, there was a thick and long bloodstain.

"Kneel down," said the soldier escorting him.

But in fact, there is no need to remind, after all, he can no longer stand up.The leg may have been broken, hanging limply.

"You want to see me? What do you want to say?" The emperor asked majesticly.

The assassin stopped talking, his head was lowered, and a lifeless face was hidden under the messy hair.

"Your Majesty is asking you something, why are you pretending to be deaf!" Seeing this, the soldiers at the side wanted to fight again, but were stopped by the emperor's gesture.

The emperor stepped down from the dragon seat and stood in front of the assassin.

"Tell me, who sent you to assassinate the Seventh Prince, I will spare you and keep your family safe and rich."

The assassin suddenly let out an unusually sharp laugh.He raised his head, showing a dirty and ferocious face, and said viciously, "Family, I have no family for a long time!"

The emperor waved his hand to show that it was okay, and motioned him to continue talking.

"My family members died in the war between northern Xinjiang and the Central Plains, and the culprit was Princess Ruoyang, who was collaborating with the enemy!" He gritted his teeth, "If she hadn't acted falsely and secretly betrayed the country, how could so many people have died in this war?" Criticism. Damn her! Damn! Damn her son!"

The emperor narrowed his eyes dangerously, and leaned over, "I'll ask you one last time, who ordered you to come?"

The assassin seemed to be crazy, let out a meaningless roar from his throat, and then turned around and slammed into the pillar beside him, but was stopped by the soldiers.

"It doesn't matter if you don't confess. Although you have no family, His Majesty can still chop off your fingers one by one, tear off your veins inch by inch, and make your life worse than death." The soldier threatened.

The assassin's face turned pale.

The emperor waved his hands noncommittally, then turned around and walked back to the dragon seat.The soldier also grabbed the assassin's arm and was about to drag it out.

The assassin suddenly burst into a sharp cry, "Don't, don't do this to me, Your Majesty, I say! I say!"

The emperor paused, but still pretended not to hear and continued walking forward.

"It's General Xiao, it was Xiao Xiangling who sent me here, Your Majesty! Your Majesty is clearly aware, it's none of the villain's business!"

The atmosphere instantly dropped to freezing point.

The three words "Xiao Xiangling" were like thunder exploding on the flat ground, and everyone's expression changed suddenly.

The emperor almost stood up and stopped, but in the extreme shock, the soldier's hand loosened unconsciously.

In that instant, the assassin jumped out, pushed away the hand that was holding him, and slammed into the pillar with all his might.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere.

"Quick, clean it up quickly, don't surprise Your Majesty." The surrounding soldiers shouted in a hurry, and there was a mess below.

And the emperor hadn't reacted from Xiao Xiangling's outrageous incident just now, and was splattered with blood again, he was really shocked.Fingers and face are trembling involuntarily.

Xiao Xiangling was absent on the day of the palace banquet, and on the day of the court, Xiao Xiangling abnormally gave up the position of accompanying the prince and asked to accompany the seventh prince...

Everything strange seems to have an explanation.

"Xiao Xiangling..." The emperor let out a trembling breath, "Xiao Xiangling..."

"Tie him here!" he said angrily.
