Chapter 252
Chapter 252
Meng Qiqi really missed Chen Boyan, his broad palms, and his serious expression, especially in this dangerous city of Shenjing, the miss was as thick as the night.
But the high city wall blocked his lovesickness. When he looked out from the window, not only could he not see Fang Jun in the distance, but he couldn't even find the bright moon.
Dark clouds cover the moon.
This is not a good sign.
Meng Qiqi, who missed her lover but couldn't find it, suddenly felt bored, and this boredom lasted until the morning of the next day, and it never disappeared.
The court hall was less than half empty, because the lesser half of the people were killed or injured by Meng Qiqi.But the slightly deserted court did not usher in peace because the emperor threw out a sentence - I want to establish a prince.
The emperor appeared in the court hall dragging his seriously ill body. The first sentence he said was to establish a prince, and the meaning he wanted to express could not be more obvious.This is not a prince, this is to pass the throne directly.
Although Princess Yihe is a woman, she was able to go to the court to report on her duties because of her great contributions in the battle of Jinling.She stood quietly between several imperial brothers and ministers, without showing any signs of publicity, as if she was listening to something that had nothing to do with her.
Most of the people in the court also felt that this matter had nothing to do with her.
Meng Qiqi came to Tianbao Pavilion again, while flipping through the book files, while listening to Xiao Xiao recount to him what happened in the court hall in detail.
Xiao Yu'er also pretended to hold the book and read it carefully, and frowned with puffy face when encountering words she didn't know, she was so cute.
"...The second prince was the most vocal. He loves to be sociable, he is a virtuous corporal, and he has attracted many followers. After retiring from the imperial court, he went to Princess Yihe, and he looks very familiar."
Xiao Xiao said, kneeling on the ground to make tea for his master.
Meng Qiqi was leaning on the small desk, holding two large walnuts in his hand, squinting his eyes, no one knew what he was thinking.In the end, he said: "Leave them alone, Her Royal Highness has the fierce sword Gui Luoluo, and it's not our turn to take action."
Xiao Xiao nodded in response, and said: "Ji Yuetang is still missing. We searched all the places related to Emperor Yaoguang, but we didn't even see the shadow of Tang Cha and Qu Ping. Some monks who came to Beijing said that they had been in the city. I saw Chen Boxi at the door, but unfortunately he ran too fast and couldn't stop him."
"Perhaps he has entered the city." Meng Qiqi's eyes were still on the scroll, trying to find Ji Yuetang's possible hiding place from above, but he still found nothing.
There is something strange about the defensive formation, not only did he not kill Ji Yuetang, but he was protecting him instead.What's more, Chen Boxi, Qu Ping and others were able to successfully pass the inspection of the big formation and sneak into the city without anyone noticing, there must be his handwriting.
This made Meng Qiqi feel a terrible and unacceptable guess. He only hoped that he was wrong.
But if Ji Yuetang didn't show up, he couldn't verify his guess.
Did he not show up on purpose?
Meng Qiqi couldn't help frowning.Ji Yuetang didn't show up, and his investigation made no progress. He was like being trapped in a maze, desperately trying to find the exit, but he couldn't find the right way.
But he couldn't jump out of this maze, he could only stay in Shenjing, because he knew very well that all the sticking points were buried here.
As time went by, he sometimes remembered something from the past in the pain in his ribs.Gradually, he began to be in a trance, and he couldn't tell whose memories belonged to them, Yao Guang, Ji Yuetang?Or himself?
Who is he?
Those memories are disorganized and mostly fragmented.Sometimes it's the scene of Ji Yuetang and Yao Guang talking happily in that hermit village, and sometimes it's the battlefield where the noise is loud.
He saw Ji Yuetang and Yao Guang meeting on the bank of the Wujiang River, Yaoguang was on the other side of the Wujiang River, and Ji Yuetang was on the other side of the Wujiang River.The two of them faced each other across the river, and his and his eyes were full of complex expressions of astonishment and joy.
Perhaps the emotion contained in that look was so strong that Meng Qiqi was affected. When she came out of the memory scene, she still held her heart for a long time but couldn't recover.
Inadvertently reached out to touch the corner of the eye, and found himself crying.
This frightened Xiao Yu'er, and she hugged his master's arm for a while worried.
Meng Qiqi was also very worried. He was afraid that he would become another person when he woke up one day.But he couldn't control himself, and even forced himself to actively pursue those memories in order to explore the deepest truth.
The more bored he was, the more he wanted to calm himself down, read a book, sip a sip of tea, or practice sword for a while, just like Chen Boyan used to when he was in Gushan, sinking and meditating.
Tianbao Pavilion is like an isolated island that escapes from the world, let the wind and rain outside, and when it reaches Meng Qiqi's ears, only Xiao Xiao's calm words are left forever.
Within a day, the second prince was startled by a group of hooligans while driving through Sajin Street, fell from the carriage and was bedridden.
The next day, the third prince visited the mansion, but died of poisoning.
Two bad news came to the palace one after another, the emperor was furious because of this, and smashed the gauze curtains all over the place with his sword.And Meng Qiqi was still leisurely sitting in Tianbao Pavilion, drinking tea and reading a book while leaning on the table.
But if you observe carefully, you will find that he can only turn a page after a long time, because he can't read it at all.
"I don't want to read anymore." Meng Qiqi tossed the book away, rolling her eyes in boredom.
"Master, people in Shenjing are panicking now, and everyone is saying that you did what happened to the two princes." Xiao Xiao calmly poured him a cup of hot tea, and gave Xiao Yu'er a wink, and Xiao Yu'er ran away immediately After getting behind Meng Qiqi, he graciously squeezed his master's shoulders.
Meng Qiqi said: "Why should I blame what Gui Luoluo did?"
Xiao Xiao replied: "Master, don't you care?"
"I just care if it's a ghost." Meng Qiqi looked at the dishes and held grudges very much.
"Then what is the master's order? Gui Luoluo will appear in Baihualou every day at You hour these days, maybe he is waiting for you to take the initiative to go there." Xiao Xiao said unclearly, and everyone knew it well.Now there are rumors everywhere in Shenjing City, and it may not be that there are no Gui Luoluo contributing to the flames.
Meng Qiqi raised her eyebrows, but said nothing.
Xiao Xiao said again: "Ghost Luoluo's behavior style seems to have changed compared to before. It is obvious that he is paving the way for Princess Yihe. Although the methods are as fierce as ever, they are not extreme enough. If it was in the past, the Second Prince would not have chance of survival."
The second prince is the most loved. Once he dies suddenly, it will definitely cause a huge backlash from the government and the public, which will be unfavorable for Yihe's ascension to the throne in the future.It would be the safest thing to keep him alive, but deprive him of the right to be emperor.
The word "safety" is the least compatible with Gui Luoluo.
"People always change." Meng Qiqi thought of Gui Luoluo and Yihe, and his mood improved a lot.He was suddenly looking forward to seeing the final outcome of those two people. If the ghost Luo Luo had sincerity, the monster would also have love.
But Meng Qiqi's good mood didn't last long, and the news from Wufengling made him turn pale.He stared at Xiao Xiao with wide eyes, "Say it again?"
"Master, he's gone." Xiao Xiao knelt on the ground, drooping her eyes sadly.
"Gone? What went?" Suddenly, Meng Qiqi couldn't understand the meaning of these two words.He looked out the window in a daze, his heart was up and down, but he couldn't get it down.
His ribs began to throb again, as if they had been knocked off abruptly and pulled out of his body. The pain made his eyes darken and he was sweating all over.
"Master!" Xiao Yu'er and Xiao Xiao rushed to support him, but Meng Qiqi fell too fast, as if he didn't catch his breath, he suddenly fell to the ground.
"Bang!" Meng Qiqi felt as if she had fallen on a hard stone slab, and her whole body ached. When she opened her eyes again, she found that she had come to a tent from Tianbao Pavilion.
Anxious, crisp shouts attracted his attention.
"Brother Yaoguang, brother Yaoguang!"
That was Ji Yuetang, Ji Yuetang who was covered in blood and was crying loudly. He knelt in front of the only bed in the tent and held Yao Guang's hand, his crying was full of despair.
Yao Guang, who was lying down, was almost silent.The hand that used to be able to lift Ji Yuetang up and put him on the horse's back was now hanging limply beside the bed, his face was pale, and the blood from his body almost stained the whole bed red.
"Brother Yaoguang..." Ji Yuetang cried heartbreakingly, as if he couldn't accept the death of the person in front of him.He shook his head desperately, holding Yao Guang's hand tightly, as fragile as a cicada in summer.
Meng Qiqi saw that the deputy general of the Black Feather Army was in the tent, holding the hilt of the sword tightly with his right hand, and gently pushed the sword out a little with his thumb.As long as he made up his mind, he could stab Ji Yuetang's heart with a single sword.
Their general is dead, how can the enemy's general continue to live?
Probably because Ji Yuetang was crying so pitifully, the lieutenant gripped the handle of the knife tightly, but did not make a move for a long time.
Suddenly, Ji Yuetang wiped away tears vigorously, turned around and said, "You all go out, I want to be alone with him for a while."
Where did the lieutenant respond, the long saber drew out of its sheath immediately, pointed at Ji Yuetang, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to do?"
"I want to save him!" Ji Yuetang said resoundingly. He stared at the lieutenant general, as if he was afraid that he would not believe him, and explained repeatedly: "I can really save him. Let me try it, okay? I want to save him!"
The lieutenant general was hesitating and struggling, but Yao Guang was already dying, and he had no way to recover. Even if Ji Yuetang wanted to play tricks, what could he do?
Maybe he can really save people?
In the end, the deputy general led his people out of the camp, leaving only Ji Yuetang and Yao Guang in the tent.
Meng Qiqi didn't know why Ji Yuetang appeared here alone. At this moment, he should already be recognized as the king of monsters.What puzzled Meng Qiqi the most was that he originally thought that Ji Yuetang was taken away from the village by a monster, and after waking up, he would naturally restore his memory as a monster, and his personality would change drastically.
But no, Ji Yuetang is still the same Ji Yuetang, he seems to be born pure and kind.
At this moment, he took out a dagger from his sleeve, with a hint of determination in his eyes, he gritted his teeth and stabbed the dagger into his chest.
Blood flowers instantly bloomed on his pure white shirt, he was trembling all over, his face turned pale, and he cried out in pain.But he didn't let go of the dagger, Meng Qiqi watched helplessly as he cut off his ribs and took them out of his body.
It must have been an unforgettable pain, so painful that Meng Qiqi, a bystander, couldn't breathe.
Then, he put his ribs into Yao Guang's body.In the same position, replacing the opponent's rib with his own.
After doing all this, he was already extremely weak, curled up on the ground like a wounded cub.
Meng Qiqi took a deep breath, walked to the side of the sick bed with difficulty, and watched through the unsutured wound that the rib and Yao Guang's own bone began to join together miraculously.
After a while, the rib was fully grown, only the fine line at the root still showed what had happened.
Meng Qiqi watched, watched, and suddenly a call came from the bottom of her heart.The call was getting louder and faster, making his heart beat faster and faster.
It is it that calls.
It's that rib.
At the same time, in Xilin Academy.
Ji Yuetang sat on the porch where he sat most often, looking at the sky that suddenly started to rain, with a hint of disappointment on his face.
The haggard Qu Ping came out from behind the corner, pulled down his hood, looked at him deeply, and said in a hoarse voice, "Boss, I'm back."
Ji Yuetang turned to look at him, "It's been so long since you came back, why are you only now looking for me?"
Qu Ping didn't answer, there seemed to be endless doubts in his eyes.
"Ask if you want to ask, don't be hesitant. You have always been straightforward, why have you lost this advantage?" Ji Yuetang said, patted the seat next to him, and said, "Come and sit. Bored, just in time to talk to you."
Hearing his familiar tone, Qu Ping's eyes were slightly red, but he finally stopped beside Ji Yuetang, did not sit down, and lowered his eyes and asked, "Who is Meng Qiqi? And who are you?"
