Chen Palace

Chapter 214
In the main hall of the pepper wall and gold bricks, gilded auspicious beasts slowly spit out purple smoke from the mouth, and the fragrance permeates the whole hall. Entering from the east is a vermilion threshold, 24 shark gauze curtains are pulled up with coral gold hooks, and the heavy curtains are hazy. And hang down, as if isolated from the outside world.

In front of the imperial couch, red candles were shining brightly, and the dragon and phoenix curtains of the hundreds of sons and grandsons were raised high. The new queen's phoenix crown was full of pearls and jade, which almost covered her face. She sat upright with her eyes closed in the radiance.

Outside the hall, the wind was blowing and the waves were raging, and the branches and leaves cast hideous shadows on the window. In the darkness, it seemed that someone sighed softly.

Is it today...

Chen Lu asked herself, a heart is like being involved in a river of forgetfulness, drifting straight down, and finally sinking into an abyss, with no determination to return.

There was a soft knock at the palace door, and all the palace people knelt down to congratulate him, and Chen Lu knew that the emperor had arrived.

Yuan Qi strode forward to the couch, and was overwhelmed by her unparalleled beauty at that moment, so he sighed with a smile: "It's finally the day..." But there was no joy in the voice, but some sense of loss and sadness. Anxiety comes.

The palace people didn't realize it, and they all covered their mouths and laughed. They served the emperor and the empress and drank the wine with jade cups. After performing the formal ceremony, they retreated one after another. Sit next to each other.

The emperor played with the jade cup in his hand and saw the inscription in official script on it, so he read in a low voice: "Jiumo auspicious smoke, a thousand incense and auspicious sun. May you live forever and be drunk in Phoenix City."

He smiled brightly, and there was an indescribable melancholy between his brows, "Poems are good poems, but it's a pity..."

He stared deeply at the beautiful woman beside him, and said with a light smile, "You have been waiting for a long time..."

"The courtiers and concubines are really terrified. The etiquette is already complicated, so how can we talk about waiting for a long time?"

The sound of morning dew came from behind the pile of pearls and jade, and it was heard under the lamp in the quiet night. It was no longer clear and clean, and the golden sound was full of fatigue and emptiness.

"Are you tired?"

The emperor stretched out his hand, intending to remove the cumbersome phoenix crown from her hair, but the next moment, he was startled on the spot by a cold light.

The short sword suddenly protruded from the heavily dyed ruffled sleeves, and the blade shone brightly under the lamp, almost illuminating the whole hall.

The emperor was terrified and was about to back away, but found that his whole body was numb and unable to move.

"Health wine!"

He suddenly realized, raised his eyes to Chen Lu, smiled wryly, "It really is so..."

He didn't struggle, but sighed in a low voice: "Pei Zhen said that you were plotting something wrong, I don't believe it, I never thought about it, and it turned out to be a prophecy."

The dagger was lying in front of him, the blade was sharp and radiant, one could tell it had been honed carefully, it looked like half a dark moon under the candle.

A bunch of black hair on the temples was swept by the stern sword energy, and fell from the jade algae, and fell straight to the lapis lazuli floor.

"A wicked conspiracy?"

Chen Lu smiled, with slight sarcasm and deep pain, "If I plot something wrong, can I really be a female emperor?"

"You stranded the soldiers of the Northern Army in the capital, don't you have any plans?"

"Once the monarch dies, and the dragons have no leader, with them, the capital can be stabilized."

"Death..."

The emperor muttered the word and said with a wry smile, "You are going to take my life tonight."

"Unfortunately, Pei Zhen has already informed me that the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army will leave tonight. Even if you kill me, you have nothing to do."

"..."

The emperor stared at her closely with bitter eyes, and Chen Lu also locked her cold black eyes deeply. The two looked at each other, intersecting with lingering and estrangement. It seemed that there was only this deep regret left in the distance.

"Your father, queen mother, and I have a sworn hatred..." After a long time, Chen Lu said in a low voice.

The emperor raised his eyes in astonishment, but was shocked by the determination in her eyes. He said with difficulty: "Father, queen, mother?"

"There is also Wang Peizhi who escaped into the underworld. It has been a long time, and all the people rushed to die one by one before waiting for my revenge. What's the point of God letting me be reborn in this world?"

Her voice became deeper, but more intense. Although the pain pierced her heart, she still stood stubbornly with her head held high. Under the thick black eyelashes like butterfly wings, there was a strange crimson, but it gradually became watery, and she blinked. Blink.

The inner core of the red candle burst open at this moment, and the hall was full of brilliance for a moment. The emperor only saw two drops of tears fall from those black eyes and landed on the back of his hand.

The skin suddenly burned, and the heart also skipped a beat at this moment. The emperor was so anxious that he couldn't help reaching out his hand to wipe away the desolate tears.

However, he couldn't move at all, he could only watch as she withdrew her tears, staggered slightly and approached with a sword.

The coldness of blowing hair and broken hair made his skin chill, the morning dew condensed him, his dark eyes were like icy blades slashing, thousands of struggles, only in this thought.

One thought of three thousand, this long and lingering entanglement finally came to an abrupt end as the dagger was slowly drawn out, the sword pierced straight, there was a low dragon chant, the moment it sounded in the dark night, it seemed like something Countless dark heroic souls roared towards them.

The point of the sword reached her chest, and the moment it penetrated the uniform, Chen Lu's hand froze, and her hand trembled, but she couldn't stab it no matter what.

It's like a stream of light, and the past situation is flashing in front of my eyes...

When Yu Huayuan first met, his wise and clear smile...

On the eaves of the Jingye Palace, the two sat side by side to watch the stars, and the everlasting sound of the flute...

In the torrential river, the bloody man refused to let go of his generous palm...

On the eve of the Queen's seal, I looked at the tranquility and joy I had first described with Qingdai with a smile on my face...

"stop!"

The gate of the temple was smashed open by an incomparably huge force. In the blink of an eye, Qu Yun rushed straight in. Just in time to see this scene, he threw the sword in his hand, knocking the short blade out of a gap the size of a grain of rice.

(It has also caught the bug a little bit, and the storytelling has reached its climax)
