Chapter [-]: Your People, My People

Because of the Taoist robes that were lit before, although the side hall was quite empty, the air in the room soon became turbid.Xiao Yizhen, who was sitting quietly on the chair, seemed to find it difficult to accept the smell, and couldn't help but frowned: "You burned it, is it the clothes you wore when you assassinated Dou Jiande?"

"Yes"

Zhang Wancheng's face is covered with a human skin mask, and now she looks like an old palace lady in her 40s.The wrinkles on the corners of the eyes are very deep, and there is a black mole next to the nose that looks really unflattering.At this time, her figure still looks full of temptation, but if you stare at the face, you will soon lose interest.

This human skin mask is so delicately made, I really don't know who made it.Xiao Yizhen looked at her before and said that she did not seem to be a servant who had just entered the palace, and it was not easy to hide such a thoughtful woman like her.

"It's just that I don't know who sent you to make a woman come to the palace to assassinate... The person behind you is not very honest. I always thought that the battle between men is better on the battlefield. Did he think about it?" However, even if you succeed in assassinating the Emperor here in such a dangerous place, it may be hard to survive."

"I came here voluntarily. If he knew, he would be furious."

Thinking of Li Xian, Zhang Wancheng couldn't help but smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Oh?"

Xiao Yizhen was startled, and then smiled wryly: "It turns out that you are also a woman who can give up everything for the sake of love, but have you ever thought about it...you are always the one who suffers because of your dedication."

"what"

Zhang Wancheng did not answer Xiao Yizhen's words, but suddenly exclaimed in a low voice.She couldn't help but took a few steps forward, approached Xiao Yizhen, looked at her carefully, and said: "Your name is Xiao Yizhen... Could it be the empress of the Sui Dynasty? It's... Yang Guang's wife? "

"It's rare, people remember that I'm still his wife... what people remember is that I'm just his wife."

Xiao Yizhen was silent for a while, then raised her finger and pointed at the pile of ashes and said, "You'd better clean it up as soon as possible. Since you failed in the assassination, the pursuers will come soon. Seeing this thing, there is no guarantee that no one will suspect it."

"Are you going to help me?"

Zhang Wancheng asked.

"Whether I can help you, no one knows. If the guards in the palace are chasing you, even if I want to help you, I can't hide it. Because almost everyone in the palace knows that I am the only one in the Palace of Fanghua I'm just a person who was abandoned in this side hall to practice cultivation, and there is no one around me to serve me."

"In the palace..."

Zhang Wancheng shook her head and said: "At this time, there are probably not many old people in this palace who are still alive. The rebels have already entered the Wanchun Palace. Although Dou Jiande did not die in my hands, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape from the rebels. Chase. After those rebels entered the palace, how would they know that there are no maids around you?"

"Rebels?"

Xiao Yizhen frowned slightly, and then couldn't help laughing: "It's like this again... That Empress Cao said that I was a disaster star. If I became the empress of the Sui Dynasty, the Sui Dynasty would perish. If I became the empress of Yu Wenhuaji, the great Xu would perish." Later, Dou Jiande also thought about making me a queen. Although he didn't succeed, he still couldn't escape such an ending. Your Majesty encountered rebellion, Yu Wenhuaji encountered rebellion, and Dou Jiande still encountered rebellion... What is going on in this world? gone?"

The majesty she was talking about was only that one.For her, neither Yu Wenhuaji nor Dou Jiande is the only majesty in her heart.

"Such things are perfectly normal. This troubled world is a troubled world of all kinds of rebellions... Sometimes the rebellion is driven by profit, and sometimes the rebellion even comes for no reason."

She looked at Zhang Wancheng and said, "If it's true as you said, then why are you running away? The rebels want to kill Dou Jiande, and you want to kill Dou Jiande too. Speaking of which, you are all the way."

"Because I also killed that rebel."

Zhang Wancheng said helplessly.

"You are really unlucky. Both the traitor and Dou Jiande are your mortal enemies. What is your origin? You are not an ordinary person who can offend people on both sides."

Xiao Yizhen paused for a moment and said: "But speaking of it, Dou Jiande is more pitiful. There are so many people who want to kill him this day, and everyone betrays their relatives... Could it be that the emperor can't escape this ending?"

Zhang Wancheng was startled, and then understood something: "You are still a person living in the past."

Xiao Yizhen was startled, then nodded lightly: "Although I don't know who you are, and I don't know where you come from, but it's the first time we met, and you can understand me so well after only saying a few words. , but it is rare. This is the fate between you and me, and in this case, I will help you once."

She stood up, turned around and walked inside: "Come with me."

Zhang Wancheng was puzzled, but followed her into the inner room.Xiao Yizhen walked to the bed and turned the flowerpot on the low table next to her. There was a crackling sound on the wall next to the bed, revealing a dark hole half the height of a person.

"Here...how can there be a secret passage?"

Zhang Wancheng couldn't help asking curiously.

"This secret passage... was specially built by Dou Jiande for a private meeting with me."

"what?"

Zhang Wancheng opened her mouth wide in surprise, looking at the secret road that was only half a person tall, she couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in her heart.

"Do you think I'm a bitch?"

Xiao Yizhen asked.

Zhang Wancheng shook her head, not knowing what to say.

Xiao Yizhen smiled, but no matter how you look at this smile, there is no life at all: "They are only interested in my skin, if they want to grab it, they can just grab it. If I get dirty once, it will never be clean again. But But I know that my heart is clean. My Majesty lives there, only he..."

It is difficult for Zhang Wancheng to understand this kind of thinking, because in her opinion, it is just a kind of self-deceiving thinking, but she is unwilling to say anything, because she knows that this alluring woman is actually dead long ago.Died in the beautiful memories of the past, why call her alive and endure endless suffering?

……

……

Noisy voices from outside gradually came in, and many people came to the yard from the sound of talking and footsteps.Xiao Yizhen nodded to Zhang Wancheng and said: "Hide in, don't go to the end... The exit of this secret road is Dou Jiande's imperial room, if you run there, it will be more dangerous. Just hide inside, wait Come out when it's safe."

Zhang Wancheng nodded, thanked her and slipped in with a short body.

Xiao Yizhen twisted the flower pot, and the secret path slowly closed again.Just at this time, the door of the side hall was kicked open from the outside, and a dozen rebel soldiers rushed in, seeing no one outside, rushed inside again.When these soldiers saw a beautiful woman sitting cross-legged in the room, they were all surprised and didn't know what to do.

"gorgeous……"

A soldier swallowed hard and said, "No wonder everyone wants to be the emperor. Any concubine in the palace is so beautiful that people can't take their eyes off."

"Beauty, you can only look at it!"

The team leader rolled his eyes at him and said: "The major general ordered that no woman in the palace be touched!"

"It's a pity."

The soldier shook his head in pain: "If you can sleep with such a woman once, it's worth dying now."

"The team is... this is the side hall, there is not even a servant, this woman is just a concubine abandoned by Dou Jiande, so deserted, in all likelihood, she has fallen out of favor and been forgotten. There are only us here and no outsiders, If... don't worry, you come first, and we will watch outside."

A soldier approached the team and said with a lewd smile.

The team obviously hesitated for a while, but still didn't dare: "Forget it, it's not worth losing your life for a woman...but..."

He paused and said: "For such a woman, it seems that if you don't fight, you will regret it for the rest of your life."

"You all go out and show me, if you see someone coming, call me immediately!"

The soldiers cheered, turned and ran to the door: "Captain, hurry up, don't let the brothers wait too long!"

Xiao Yizhen slowly opened her eyes, and glanced at the dirty and blood-stained captain in front of her, her face was calm without any waves, she just shook her head slightly and sighed.

God gave me such a face, it turned out that it was not pity but disgust...

Zhang Wancheng, who was hiding in the secret passage, couldn't help sighing, and clenched the soft whip in his hand.She took a deep breath, and then slowly moved outside.

……

……

Wanchun Palace

royal room

Wang Pao walked slowly into the room that represented the supreme power of the Great Xia Kingdom, stood at the door and carefully looked at everything in the room.His eyes were full of greed and complacency that couldn't be concealed, and he didn't even notice the satisfied smile on the corner of his mouth.

He didn't notice it, but Pei Ji and Chen Zheng standing beside him could see it clearly.

The two looked at each other, and couldn't help but smile knowingly.

"Major General, do you want to sit on it?"

Chen Zheng leaned over and said softly.

Wang Pao looked at the chair, moved his footsteps but held back: "Come here, invite the general. This is the seat for the general. No one else is qualified to sit on it except the general."

The soldiers behind immediately responded, and turned to invite Wang Fubao.

Not long after, Wang Qunlu, the captain of the personal soldier, accompanied the general Wang Fubao to the imperial room. Wang Qunlu waved his hand, and the soldiers who followed him immediately covered the dough outside the imperial room.

"Have you caught Dou Jiande?"

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Fubao asked.

"Father, not yet... But it is expected that he will not be able to leave Mingzhou City. Xiahou will not allow him to search the whole city with his troops. Don't worry, father, he will not escape."

Snapped!

A loud slap sounded in the room, extremely abrupt.

Enduring the burning pain on his face, Wang Pao looked at Wang Fubao and asked, "Why did father beat me?"

"Your Majesty!"

Wang Fubao roared angrily.

There was a strange look in Wang Pao's eyes, but he still knelt down.

"When the red line fell from the city wall, I told you to take back the corpse... Why didn't you listen to me? Why did you order to push the city hammer to run over it? I searched for a long time at the gate of the city, but it turned out that even her body I didn't find any... only found a whole body of tattered clothes, even if I wanted to build a grave for her, I couldn't do it!"

"Father!"

Wang Pao raised his head and said, "In the face of major events, how can you only care about your children's private affairs? At that time, how could you stop?"

"To shut up!"

Wang Fubao slapped Wang Pao hard again: "If you talk back again, I will pull you out and chop you up! Compared with the red line... what is Jiangshan?"

Wang Pao shook his head slowly, then stood up: "Father...you are not qualified to sit on that chair."

He pointed to the chair behind the table, which was where the emperor sat when he reviewed the memorials.

"What did you say?"

Wang Fubao said angrily, "You are getting bolder!"

"You are not cruel enough."

Wang Pao shook his head, and then pointed to Wang Fubao's heart: "At first, I thought, you are not too young, so I will let you make this chair for a few years, and after you die, I will do my best to make it for you. You die. I will choose a place of geomantic omen for you, and I will be buried in a beautiful place. After a few years, I will inherit your throne... But now it seems that I was wrong... In your heart, I, the adopted son, is actually nothing, Not as good as that woman, right?"

"Since you are so ruthless, don't blame me for being ruthless."

Wang Pao sighed softly, then said calmly and coldly: "Kill him."

"Who dares to kill me?! Wang Pao! Don't you forget that the army is all mine!"

Wang Fubao was furious, and subconsciously drew his knife.But only at this time did he realize that his horizontal knife was snatched by the personal soldier Wang Qunlu when Dou Hongxian died.He immediately turned around, looked at Wang Qunlu and said, "Bring me my horizontal knife!"

"Here!"

Wang Qunlu responded, and then drew the knife and handed it to Wang Fubao. Wang Fubao reached out to take it, but the knife suddenly turned halfway, and the blade was handed over fiercely, and pierced into Wang Fubao's heart with a puff.

Wang Pao couldn't help but shook his head and smiled, walked up to Wang Fubao and said softly, "Father...the army is indeed yours, but this house...is mine."
