Big Moon Ballad

Chapter 988 Torrent

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty?"

The trembling voice of Geng Zhong, the commander of the dark guards, came from outside, probably wondering if his master had been hijacked.

"It's better," Ying Baoyue carefully put the beads into her arms, "Why did you ask them to come in? It would be a disaster if someone spread the word."

The reason why she chose to visit the palace at night instead of going through an audience is because Zhao Muren must have a lot of ministers and national teachers around her if she had a normal audience, and she can't reveal her identity in front of so many people.

Only through the way of night spying can we guarantee that she will not be suspicious when she meets Zhao Muren alone.

At most, the hidden guards around Zhao Muren can know who she is, but if even the hidden guards betray Zhao Muren...

His head, the King of Soochow, was no longer on his shoulders.

"Don't worry," Zhao Muren said lightly, "People inside and outside Weiyang Palace can rest assured."

He has cleaned so many times to ensure that at least no one of the forces can reach into his bedroom.

"Even so, Your Majesty, please pretend to be stupid to the end tonight, and let those two go," Ying Baoyue said.

She is used to doing this kind of thing, but Ji Jiashu, who has always been loyal to the emperor and patriotic, overcame psychological barriers to make a guest appearance as an "assassin". If he knew that his identity was known by the King of Soochow, he would feel guilty.

In other words, save some face for the kids outside.

As for Li Ji...Ying Baoyue didn't know if he had any psychological barriers.

Do ordinary decent people hide night clothes in their arms?One or two sets.

Hearing Ying Baoyue's words, Zhao Muren sneered, "What are you afraid of! I still want to meet those two 'strong men' who dared to break into Weiyang Palace!"

However, at this moment, the voice of the commander of the dark guards came from outside the door, "Your Majesty, those two thieves have already escaped, and half of the Jinwu Guards have gone after them!"

Zhao Muren frowned, and Ying Baoyue smiled.

"Forget it, let all the members of the Jinwu Guard come back, don't fall into the trick of diverting the tiger away from the mountain," Zhao Muren said flatly, "Protecting the safety of the widow is the most important thing."

"Decree!" The commander of the dark guard promised.

"Your Majesty really knows the art of war." Ying Baoyue applauded and got up from the bed. "The little girl has also left. Your Majesty has a good rest."

"Stop," Zhao Muren looked at her with a half-smile, "Your fiancé left you and ran away, are you not sad at all?"

"He knows I'll be fine." Ying Baoyue smiled and glanced at the tall figures of the hidden guards outside the door, "Even if I can't win, I can still run."

Thinking of this woman quietly appearing on his bed before, Zhao Muren's expression was a little ugly.

"By the way, how did you avoid the detection of the widow's hidden guard?"

"Your Majesty, have you forgotten what I used to do?" Ying Baoyue looked back at him and said with a smile, "Speaking of which, the Geng family in Ruyang was also a subordinate promoted by my master back then."

How could he have forgotten what the pair of master and apprentice did!

The corners of Zhao Muren's mouth twitched slightly.

The chief commander, Lin Shubai, started his career as the commander of the secret guards next to Emperor Qin Yingdi.

After the unification of the Qin Empire, Emperor Taizu bestowed many dark guards and families to the princes and kings. These dark guard brothers eventually became younger brothers and fathers died and sons succeeded, forming dark guard families in various countries.

At the beginning, Emperor Ying's move was also to protect the princes and kings he supported. The emperor was very generous in this regard. These families even belonged to the princes and kings themselves to control the curse and prohibition of the hidden guards, so they were not afraid of being unfaithful.

And the hidden guards bestowed by Emperor Ying are basically excellent, and all of them can become the leader of the dark guards.

After all, it was taught by the chief minister...couldn't it be excellent?
In other words, the best hidden guards on this continent were trained by this pair of master and apprentice back then.

Zhao Muren thought about this matter clearly, looking at Ying Baoyue, he had nothing to say.

How could his hidden guard stop the ancestor of the dark guard...

"Okay, let's go," Zhao Muren supported his forehead with a headache, "Remember to send the beads back to the widow when the water battle is over."

"It's a deal," Ying Baoyue nodded, and walked towards the door. Just as she was about to push the door, she turned her head and glanced at the man sitting by the bed, "Your Majesty, will you go to watch the water battle in three days? "

"The widow didn't plan to go," Zhao Muren frowned. He originally only planned to attend the final round, "but now I want to go and see."

He always felt that the wind and rain were coming, and with him in charge, there would be fewer moths.

If Ying Hanri had half the courage of Zhao Muren's "Private Conquest", the former Qin Dynasty would not be in such a precarious situation.

Ying Baoyue was silent for a moment and said, "If your majesty really wants to go, please don't leave Dongfang Guoshi's side."

Zhao Muren nodded, and Ying Baoyue pushed open the door with a creak.

The dark guards outside stared wide-eyed, bewildered.

"All the hidden guards and Jinwu guards obey the order," Zhao Muren's voice came from inside the house, "Everyone turn around and don't move."

All the guards inside and outside Weiyang Palace stood by the side of the road and turned around in unison, pretending that their eyes and ears did not exist.

Zhao Muren is still trained as a good soldier who enforces orders and prohibits them.

Ying Baoyue left Weiyang Palace along the broad road with only one thought in mind.

A strong heart is not old with age, and you can still be a ghost hero after death.

The No.1 general of Soochow Wu, the sword is not old.

……

……

Because of Zhao Muren's strong control over the inside and outside of the palace, Ying Baoyue's journey back was much smoother.Walking all the way to the altar, there is no one around, and the original guards are also missing, only vaguely heard two people arguing fiercely.

The voice is not loud, the words are elegant, but also very intense.

"Let me down! How can you just run away!"

"She'll be fine."

"How do you know that she will be fine? What exactly does the King of Soochow want?"

"Your Majesty will not kill people casually, this is still worthy of belief."

"There is nothing wrong with you trusting your monarch, but I..."

Hearing that the two were about to fight, Ying Baoyue followed the sound and walked around to the altar behind the altar, and saw Ji Jiashu who was struggling with his collar and Li Ji who was stuck on the ground like a stone without oil or salt in Gujing .

But Ying Baoyue could see that Ji Jiashu didn't want to hurt Li Ji, so he didn't make a real move. If he used a sword, he wouldn't be held in his hand.

It is said that a gentleman deceives others, but no matter how you look at this scene, it looks like a gentleman and a square stone are fighting hand-to-hand.

She seemed to be able to see the scene of the two retreating just now. It was estimated that when the Jinwu Guard's offensive changed outside, Li Ji noticed something and ran away grabbing Ji Jiashu, and then ran here.

"Hold the moon!" Ji Jiashu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Ying Baoyue, and Li Ji put down Ji Jiashu's collar in due course.

"Sorry, Mr. Chunhua, I just offended you," Li Ji said.

"I offended you too," Ji Jiashu said, "It's good that everyone is fine."

Well, it seems that these two people don't need her to coordinate. Ying Baoyue stepped forward and looked at Li Ji, "How did you know you were going to run just now?"

"The Jinwu guards have changed their formation," Li Ji said, "The dark guards are also guarding outside, so you must have reached an agreement with His Majesty."

So she didn't steal it, but did she really borrow it from the King of Soochow?
Ji Jiashu looked at Ying Baoyue, "You..."

"I got it." Ying Baoyue took out the beads she wore on the road from her arms and hung them around Ji Jiashu's neck. "Keep them safe."

"The King of Soochow is reasonable. After I explained the reason to him, he lent it to me."

Li Ji and Ji Jiashu instinctively felt that things should not be so simple...

"I promise the King of Soochow to repay him with our victory," Ying Baoyue said with a smile, "I know you have doubts, but as long as we can win, everything will be fine."

Ji Jiashu was silent for a moment, then nodded.

There are more Xirong people in the middle-level ceremony, they can only win but not lose.

"Go back," Li Ji said, "recharge your batteries and see you on the battlefield in three days."

Ying Baoyue nodded.

It is indeed a battlefield.

The thrilling night was over, and three days passed like water.

The day when the middle-level ceremony begins has finally arrived.
