I use my daughter's body to cut down the rivers and lakes

Chapter 147: I am ruthless, and I am also sentimental

It was about the Queen Mother and Liu Xiangxiang. Bai Ze immediately asked in a serious voice: "Mrs. Liu, may I ask when Miss Xiangxiang was picked up by the palace people?"

Liu Qi saw the panic on Zhou's face and was afraid that she didn't even listen to Bai Ze's words, so she replied on her behalf: "Today at noon, a father-in-law who used to serve the Queen Mother came to pick up Xiang Xiang in person. .”

Therefore, neither Zhou nor Liu Xiangxiang himself had any doubts.

"At noon..."

Bai Ze immediately raised his eyebrows when he learned the time Liu Xiangxiang entered the palace.

It is now Xu Shi, and Liu Xiangxiang has been in the palace for four hours. If someone is really disadvantageous to him, he is afraid that he has already succeeded.

In addition, what Zhou had just said personally was that Liu Zongxun had also been summoned to the palace by the emperor. He was just a fifth-rank worker from the Ministry of Industry. Why would the emperor want to see him in person?

Bai Ze pursed his lips tightly, already having a bad premonition in his heart.

"General Bai Ze, please come to the palace quickly and bring Xiang Xiang back." At this time, Mrs. Zhou finally woke up and looked at Bai Ze, as if a drowning man had grabbed the last straw and stretched out his hand. The slightly trembling hands came and grabbed Bai Ze's arm tightly.

With Bai Ze's martial arts skills, there would certainly be no problem if he wanted to break free, but after all, Zhou was the sister of the Queen Mother and the mother of Miss Xiangxiang. Bai Ze could only look away from the hands on his arms with a heavy look, and then spoke. He said with relief:

Therefore, Liu Qi has always felt that being an emperor is not an easy task in this world where masters run wild.

If a person like Liu Qi, who is extremely skilled in martial arts and disobeys discipline, joins the Forbidden Army, I'm afraid the emperor himself won't be able to sleep well at night.

He said unhurriedly: "Except for Qing Guo Gong and his son, the strength of the rest of the Forbidden Army is uneven, and there are a few first-rate commanders. However, the Forbidden Army is well-equipped and can be used to deal with ordinary masters when formed. ”

As the saying goes, there is no room for others to sleep soundly on the side of the bed.

……

Bai Ze's slender figure stood on the eaves of the wall, his whole figure almost blending into the darkness.

The Wrath of the Warrior... The overthrow of the dynasty is not impossible.

Sensing everyone's gaze, Liu Qi narrowed her eyes, crossed her arms in front of her, and raised her head to meet everyone's gaze.

Therefore, the Forbidden Army usually uses sophisticated weapons and formations to bridge the gap with martial arts masters.

"Mrs. Liu." Liu Qi said slowly, "You should go back first."

As soon as Bai Ze asked, the eyes of everyone in the room suddenly focused on Liu Qi.

The Custodes are selected more for loyalty than for martial prowess.

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure condensed on the eaves of the wall behind Liu Qi, and then a subtle voice floated to Liu Qi's ears:

Bai Ze finally freed his arm from Zhou's hand and caught a glimpse of Liu Qi who was silent from the corner of his eye. He immediately turned his head and looked over. The moment he touched Liu Qi's face, his eyes quickly dropped until they landed on his waist. On the two daggers.

Especially after he and Zhou looked at each other for a long time, until the other party looked sideways in silence and took the initiative to look away.

The wrath of a common man can even cause blood to splash for five steps.

"Mrs. Liu, please don't worry. Everyone in the palace knows that the empress loves Miss Xiangxiang the most, and no one will make things difficult for her."

Previously in the main hall of the backyard, she had only to say clearly that she was a fake Liu Qiniang.

Liu Qi thought about it carefully, she had been in the capital for a while, and it seemed that she had never heard of any masters in the inner court.

Liu Qi then asked: "What about the inner court? The emperor's internal funds are so rich, it shouldn't be difficult to train a few masters among the eunuchs or maids."

It wasn't until he was less than a hundred steps away from the palace gate that Liu Qifang stopped, his figure suddenly flashed and disappeared from the spot.

"What are you going to do?"

A moment later, a group of patrolling officers and soldiers passed by the location where Liu Qi had just disappeared.

Although Zhou's voice was weak, Liu Qi heard every word.

Liu Qi shook her head gently: "You go back first. As for Xiangxiang... I will bring her back."

Doesn't Daqi have such things as East Factory and West Factory, Governor and Factory Lord?

Facing Bai Ze's comfort, the anxiety in Zhou's eyes did not diminish at all. She still held Bai Ze's arm tightly, seeming to mutter to herself: "Others don't dare, why doesn't he dare..."

In fact, Liu Qi didn't expect Zhou to come to her.

Although Liu Qi likes to be straightforward, it does not mean he is reckless.

"Da da da……"

After a moment, Bai Ze's voice came: "In order to prevent the eunuchs from disrupting the government, our court prohibits them from practicing martial arts. This is a rule set by Emperor Taizu."

Throughout the history of the Qi Dynasty for more than a hundred years, most of the emperors who truly sat securely on the throne were among the best in the world.

It seemed that Zhou had also guessed that the person who wanted to plot against Liu Xiangxiang was most likely Emperor Taikang himself.

"Ah?" Mr. Zhou was surprised when he heard this.

"Dong dong dong..."

Only when you know yourself and the enemy can you deal with it with ease.

Bai Ze paused and then said: "Even if we instill in them the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor and patriotism from an early age, who can guarantee that they will not change their minds when their cultivation reaches the point where they can stand out among the heroes."

It seemed that Mr. Zhou was really anxious, that's why he was so desperate and found him.

Tonight, dark clouds cover the moon and the night fog is thick. Standing on the long street leading to the palace, I can't see my fingers.

"Although the guards in the palace are all elites selected from the Beijing camp, the only ones who can truly be called masters are Qing Guo Gong Xia Zhengze and Qing Guo Gong's eldest son Xia Yangfeng."

Under the shadow of the wall, Liu Qi revealed half of his face, watching the patrolling officers and soldiers drift away, his thin lips slightly opening and closing: "Is there any noteworthy master in the palace?"

Liu Qi thought about it carefully and understood.

With the sharp blade in hand, the murderous intention arises.

If you really have the ability to stand out from the crowd, how can you be willing to live under others as a slave?

What's more, the eunuch's physical disability makes it easier for them to go to extremes, which can backfire on themselves.

Those who imagine that just because of their worldly status, they can make the best masters do what they want.

Liu Qi could only say that they neither understood power nor masters.

"So, our Emperor Taikang doesn't even have a capable expert around him." Liu Qinu pursed his lips, suddenly feeling that the emperor was a thief and it was boring.

Bai Ze: "However, there have always been many masters in the harem, and you should still remember one of them."

Liu Qi's eyes flashed: "The one from the Nangong family?"

Bai Ze nodded and said: "It is said that Nangong Yu's swordsmanship surpassed that of her father before she entered the palace. If she had not entered the palace as a concubine, there would be another Nangong Sword Immortal in the world. ”

Liu Qi vaguely remembered that she escaped from the forbidden area of ​​​​the Huaqing Sect and entered the palace of Queen Mother Zhou Mi.

Emperor Taikang and his concubine wanted to see Zhou Mi, but were blocked by General Suzaku.

There were three people outside the palace door at that time.

Emperor Taikang Xiao Wenhuai, Concubine Nangong Yu, and Suzaku, one of the "Four Generals of Heaven".

But only Concubine De was aware of Liu Qi's existence.

Although Liu Qi has not directly fought against Nangong Yu.

However, she and Nangong Yu's father, Nangong Shi, the current head of the Nangong family, had gone through several moves, and she was still somewhat impressed with his swordsmanship, and did not see any subtlety in it.

Bai Ze lowered his head slightly, stared at Liu Qi for a moment, and then calmed down the depth in his eyes, and then said slowly: "I didn't expect that you would make this trip for Liu Xiangxiang."

Before leaving Liu Mansion, when Liu Qi said to Zhou, "I will bring Xiangxiang back," Bai Ze who was present at the time was really surprised.

Although he has cooperated with Liu Qi several times, Bai Ze still has lingering fears about Liu Qi's ruthless determination when he takes action. Many times, Bai Ze couldn't help but wonder whether life was really like a piece of grass in the eyes of people like Liu Qi.

But now, she plans to go to the palace for Liu Xiangxiang!

Bai Ze's eyes gradually showed inexplicable meaning.

"Xiangxiang is a good boy." Liu Qi said calmly, "To be honest, I don't want to be troublesome, but..."

Liu Qi lowered her head in silence, her hand already on the handle of the Jingji knife, stroking it gently.

She murmured in a low voice: "I am ruthless, and I am also sentimental."

"If I can't do whatever I want, why should I practice martial arts?"

"Liu Xiangxiang, I saved him!"

Liu Qi's voice gradually became firmer, until the last word was spoken, like the sound of surging waves, echoing in Bai Ze's ears.

Liu Qi walked out of the shadow, then turned around and stared at Bai Ze on the eaves of the wall: "Don't you plan to go in with me?"

"Your Majesty loves Xiangxiang so much, so she would not be willing to see anything happen to her." Liu Qi continued, "General Bai Ze, it seems that you have to leave this time."

Bai Ze still holds the official position of Commander of the Forbidden Army, so his understanding of the palace is naturally better than that of his dark-sighted self.

And since Bai Ze followed her all the way to the palace gate, he must have already made plans to take action.

In fact, Liu Qi had thought about asking Bai Ze to ask the Queen Mother Zhou Mi to come forward to resolve the matter, but as soon as he proposed it, he rejected it.

"It's not convenient for my wife to see people now."

When Bai Ze said this, his face showed an expression without any discussion.

So Liu Qi had no choice but to give up and make the trip herself.

"The emperor has always been accustomed to summoning courtiers in the imperial study. Since Mr. Liu has entered the palace, the emperor must be in the imperial study at this moment."

After a moment of silence, Bai Ze said in a deep voice: "The father-in-law who took Xiangxiang into the palace was actually the spy placed by Concubine De next to the empress."

Liu Qi said in a faint tone: "If I were the empress, I would just kill Nangong Yu."

The last time Zhou Mi left the palace, eunuchs from the Nangong family and the inner court followed him, but Liu Qi took action to clean up Zhou Mi's tail.

Bai Ze shook his head and said coldly: "It would be great if it were really that simple."

"Since Nangong Yu entered the palace, the Nangong family has completely turned to the emperor. The empress does not want to make it difficult for the emperor, so she has repeatedly tolerated it."

A strange light flashed across Liu Qi's eyes: "Could it be that... Nangong Yu is also following orders?"

Bai Ze fell into silence after hearing this, and then changed the topic: "Xiangxiang is probably in Nangong Yu's palace. Even if he is not there, Nangong Yu must know about this matter."

"Okay!" Liu Qi replied angrily, "Let's go directly to Nangong Yu."

Bai Ze's eyes narrowed: "Follow me first."

After saying "whoosh", Bai Ze's figure suddenly dispersed into clouds of smoke and disappeared into the night mist.

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately jumped up and disappeared into the night sky.

Liu Qi followed Bai Ze closely, jumped over the moat, climbed over an outer wall, and successfully entered the palace.

Under Bai Ze's leadership, the two of them bypassed the guards along the way and entered the harem until they reached the outside of a brightly lit palace.

The two walked out of the night fog, and then Liu Qi heard a subtle voice from beside him: "This is Zhixiu Palace, the residence of Concubine De."

Liu Qi lowered her eyes in silence, and then a pure aura overflowed, touching the palace like a tentacle.

After a moment, Liu Qi whispered: "There are only four people in the palace who know martial arts, and they are all in the main hall. Two of them are at the door, and the remaining two are in the hall."

"And in the main hall..."

Liu Qi frowned slightly: "There seems to be a strange energy that blocks my perception."

Bai Ze's eyes tightened when he heard this: "Is there an expert?"

Liu Qi shook his head: "Probably not. If he is a master of the same level, he should have discovered that I am."

"You wait here, I'll go take a look!"

After Liu Qi said that, he jumped over the palace wall and used his skills to silently approach the main hall.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

Liu Qi turned over and broke into the main hall door. Two qi energies popped out from her hands, and before the two palace ladies at the door raised their eyes, they hit their acupuncture points.

Teng!

Just when he was about to land, Liu Qi raised his hand and stamped his palm on the ground. Using the force from the rebound, he tumbled in the air and shuttled into the palace like an arrow from a string.

It landed silently.

Whoosh!Whoosh!

There were two more bursts of energy between his fingers, sealing the maids on both sides of the screen in the palace.

Liu Qi raised her eyes and looked into the depths of the main hall. Through the screen, she could faintly see a figure that seemed to be lying on the bed.

And the location that Liu Qi couldn't perceive was where the bed was!

Rusty...

Liu Qi stepped towards the bed. The moment she walked to the screen, the sound of rapid wind whistling suddenly sounded in her ears.

Liu Qi's eyes narrowed, and she heard a "chi-la" sound, and a sword passed through the screen and struck towards her throat.

Liu Qi didn't panic, and moved forward. Just when the tip of the sword was close to his throat, Liu Qi suddenly turned to one side, avoiding the sword edge, and stretched out his right arm. The strong wind in his palm suddenly tore it into pieces. Screen made of pearl thread.

Swah——

The moment the screen opened, a woman in palace attire appeared with a sword. Looking at Liu Qi who had already jumped up, a look of horror appeared in her eyes.

Liu Qi's hands were as fast as lightning. Without waiting for the sword-wielding palace attire in front of him to react, he pressed against the opponent's fair and slender neck.

Huhu——

The wind whistles again!

Liu Qi frowned and felt a sharp aura gathering behind her, approaching her in an instant.

"Zheng——"

Green light flashed behind Liu Qi, and amidst a low hum, the sharp aura dissipated instantly.

Wow…

It sounded like the sound of water flowing.

Liu Qifu's fingers suddenly closed together, but he missed everything.

The woman whose throat was clamped by Liu Qi just now has disappeared.

Liu Qi raised her eyes and saw sparkling lights in front of her eyes. The sound of water flowing in her ears continued. The originally brightly lit main hall had become shadowy.

laugh--

Liu Qi lowered her eyes and looked at the sound, only to see a streak of water brushing past her cuffs, and the cuffs were cut instantly.

"Hehehe..." Liu Qi suddenly laughed.

"You've had enough fun, then get out of here!"

Liu Qi suddenly raised his head, and with a sharp shout, everything around him collapsed instantly, and the sound of water flow stopped abruptly!

The brightly lit main hall also reappeared.

puff--

Less than ten steps in front of Liu Qi, the woman in palace clothes spurted out a mouthful of blood mist on her back. She straightened up despite the pain, looked at the calm Liu Qi in front of her, and said with a look of shock: "伱...you... ...You can actually see through my sword intention!"
