Chapter IX The Situation
Changsun knew very well that she could not go back to Changsun Mansion now. Since the assassin could know about his departure from the palace, he would definitely wait on her way back to Changsun Mansion.
It is hard to believe that the forces behind the assassin have penetrated into the imperial city and even the palace. The successive assassination has become more and more thrilling. This time, if Qingning had not spared her life to protect her, she would have been unable to escape the death disaster.
Ning Chen and Qingning had not woken up yet, Changsun always felt that Ning Chen was a very special child. She had felt this way since she first met. It was said that the heights were so cold. Since she became Queen Xia, she has experienced this feeling all the time. I don’t know when even her close relatives felt a hint of respect when facing her.
Qingning was brought out by her and she was very close to her, but it was precisely because of this relationship that she looked more respectful than close to her. If there were other feelings, perhaps she was more grateful.
When she first met Ning Chen, she kept watching a teenager chasing something. She was curious, but she didn't bother her. Who knew that the boy crashed into her arms and the last question was just chasing a copper coin.
From Ning Chen's eyes, she did not see the compliment, hypocrisy, or even fear that everyone would see when they saw her. Although she felt guilty, it was obvious that she was embarrassed when she bumped into her. After she took his copper coins, the little guy actually wanted to speak out and ask for it back.
Later, she asked Qingning to bring Ning Chen to Weiyang Palace. She knew that such a child would definitely cause trouble if he was in other places. However, to her surprise, Ning Chen seemed to be unwilling to accept it. When she saw him again, she still remembered the reluctant look very clearly.
The next thing about Ying Huo Shouxin was even more unexpected. For this reason, she specially summoned Ning Chen to confirm the truth and falsehood of the matter. She knew countless people in her life. If the old guy who had lived for decades might be able to hide it from her, but Ning Chen was only fifteen or sixteen years old, she could tell whether he was true or false at first glance.
Ying Huo Shouxin is nothing, but it is a big deal to appear at this subtle moment. Emperor Xia has decided to send troops. The Imperial Heavenly Prison knew that the sign of Ying Huo was coming but chose to hide it. The purpose was even more chilling.
Today, when she left the palace and returned to Changsun Mansion, Qingning actually pulled Ning Chen over. She was just surprised and didn't ask anything.
What really surprised her was Ning Chen's performance today. From the time he pulled her to the time he was asking the shopkeeper for sulfur in the pharmacy, the coolness when he made medicine stones when he made medicine. Later, she asked the shopkeeper to go to the place where they were assassinated, and half of the streets there were blown out of recognition. When the officers and soldiers arrived, they even found broken blood and bones on the ground.
Ning Chen's successive unexpected performance made her more and more surprised. She had asked the shopkeeper about the blood transfusion to Qingning, but the shopkeeper made it clear that he had never heard of blood transfusion to others in this world to cure diseases or heal injuries, and there was no record in medical books. However, whether she believed it or not, Qingning's pulse was gradually stabilizing, and she had obviously overcome the death barrier.
However, this time, Changsun decided to conceal Ning Chen's rescue of her, and to make the contributions that Ning Chen reminded her before, too much. This is not a suppression, but a means of protection. After all, the latter's foundation is too thin, and suddenly having such great achievements is easy to be jealous and framed.
It seems that the assassination of her has already reached the palace. Ning Chen took her to escape into the crowd while she took advantage of the chaos and rescued Qingning, which means that no one knows their whereabouts.
She had also thought about asking the shopkeeper to go to Changsun Mansion to report the news, but then she gave up the idea. If someone noticed it, I am afraid that someone would come to Du'an Pharmacy as soon as the shopkeeper arrived at Changsun Mansion.
In fact, Ning Chen is the best candidate to report the news to Changsun Mansion. Because he is beautiful, many people know the identity of the shopkeeper of the Duan Pharmacy. Even if people notice it, they will not guess where they are.
"thirsty"
At this moment, on the bed, Ning Chen half opened his eyes and shouted in a daze.
Hearing Ning Chen's voice, Changsun came to his senses, poured a glass of water at the table and walked to the bed, carefully helped Ning Chen up and handed the water to the latter's mouth.
Ning Chen was confused, but he didn't know that the person in front of him was the Changsun he was most afraid of. He raised his body slightly, drank a few sips of water, then pushed open the cup, turned around and continued to sleep.
Changsun smiled helplessly. This was the first time she served people like this in her life, and even Emperor Xia did not have such a blessing.
On the other hand, Qingning still showed no sign of waking up. After all, she suffered such severe injuries and could not wake up in a while. Fortunately, there is a pharmacy here, and there are all kinds of medicinal herbs. Only by being out of danger can you get better sooner or later.
Before he knew it, the sky had turned dark and the night was coming. Changsun was concerned about the matter of Yinghuo, and walked to the window, waiting for the moment to come.
At the same time, Xia Huang Palace, Tianyu Hall, Xia Emperor stood alone in front of the hall, looking up at the sky, wearing a dragon robe fluttering in the dark night with the wind, and the night cold dew was heavy, but no one dared to come forward to remind him.
In the sky in the south, the Emperor of Xinsu was already as bright as before, and the Ying Huo on the side was still as dim as last night, and it looked unchanged. However, those who were interested in observing found that the distance between the two was really close.
In the west of Xia Dynasty, in an unknown deserted temple, a young man who seemed ordinary and could not be more ordinary walked out. He was just an ordinary step, but he didn't know how far he had walked. However, just as the Taoist walked out of the temple, the originally deserted area disappeared surprisingly, as if it had never appeared.
People do not know that the temple that disappeared is the first temple of the Eternal Night God Cult, and they do not know that the young man who walked out is the Son of God Cult.
Ying Huo guards his heart, a hundred years of dark night in the world!
This is the eternal night, and the same prediction is that in the ancient Mongolian royal court in the north, Due Temple in the southwest, and Tiancang Academy in the Daxia.
At this moment, the most amazing change finally appeared in the sky. The originally dim Star of Yingmao suddenly became brighter, with two stars flying brightly and red all over the starry sky.
"God willing"
Taishigong Mansion, the imperial master looked at the sky and sighed softly. The disaster was in full swing, indicating the arrival of a great disaster. This time, Daxia may be difficult to avoid.
"It's so sensible, you're like it!"
With a slight chuckling, an unparalleled figure walked over. He looked only about thirty years old and looked like a jade-like face. He was one of the three Dukes.
"Friend, you are not here so late to mock him for being too sarcastic." The imperial master glanced at the former and said lightly.
"I know that friends must be in a bad mood tonight, so I come here to accompany you to soothe your friends' mood." Mr. Xi Yu smiled softly and responded.
"Oh? I'm so sensible, I'm grateful!" said Master Emperor.
"Hehe, you're welcome." Xi Yu Gong accepted it with a smile.
"You are nearly a hundred years old, you are still so shameless," said the imperial teacher sarcastically.
"It's easy to say" Mr. Xiyu still smiled.
That night, the world was in chaos, and everyone's eyes were attracted by the two red stars fighting for beauty in the sky. In the Tianyu Palace, the Emperor Xia felt a sense of weakness in his body. Those who are interested noticed that the luck of the true dragon that had been unshakable for thousands of years was rapidly weakening above the Xia Palace. The invincible Xia Dynasty was finally no longer unbreakable, and the innocence of China was about to change.
Luck is a trend that is difficult to express. When the country was divided and wars broke out, the Xia Dynasty came into being, sweeping the world, surrendering hundreds of dynasties, establishing immortal imperial power for thousands of years. The luck of the Eternal Night Divine Sect, which has existed for countless thousands of years, had to temporarily avoid the edge and hide in the darkness. This thousand years is indeed the thousand years of Daxia, which is understandable and undisputed.
But what does the fortune of Daxia mean now is really weakening?
All the wise men in the world know that this means that Daxia is no longer invincible and no longer unshakable.
Fortunately, there is not much that can be seen in the whole world. After all, a person who can be truly wise can count it with a slap.
"What a beautiful star!"
In the inner courtyard of Du'an Pharmacy, just as Changsun frowned and thought about the solution to the future, Ning Chen, who should have been lying honestly on the bed, secretly watched Qingning's situation, wrapped in a quilt and lay bored by the window, looking at the stars leisurely.
Changsun immediately had a dark line on his forehead. This guy was the only one who could say this at this time.
However, Changsun had to admit that, apart from the meaning of Ying Huo Shuxin, the two stars are beautiful and the sky is full of blood.
Changsun suddenly remembered that Ning Chen had coincidentally reminded her of Yinghuo by chance because he had climbed to the roof of Qingling. This kid seemed to have a very fondness for watching the stars.
"Ning Chen, do you like to watch the stars?" Changsun asked curiously when he was free.
"Yes," Ning Chen replied distractedly while counting the stars.
"You're less than sixteen years old this year, are you?"
"yes"
"Your home is not in the Imperial City, right?"
"yes"
"When I asked you yesterday, you made up the master you mentioned."
"Yes...ah, no"
After saying that, Ning Chen reacted and turned his head to look at Changsun, feeling very annoyed. Jiang is indeed old and his Taoist skills are not warm enough than Changsun.
Changsun glanced at Ning Chen who was guilty and said slowly, "For the sake of saving me and Qingning today, I won't care about this matter. You have made two great contributions. How many requests can I consider agreeing to you?"
"Any few are OK?" Ning Chen asked with excitement when his eyes lit up.
"How many do you want?" Changsun asked with a funny heart.
Ning Chen struggled in his heart, carefully stretched out a slap, and after seeing Changsun's dangerous eyes, he quickly put away three fingers.
"Are two okay?"
"Tell me," Changsun nodded.
"I don't want to be a eunuch, I want to leave the palace." Ning Chen opened his mouth and his eyes shone. After so long, he finally had the chance to run away.
Changsun was stunned. She didn't expect that Ning Chen's request would be this. She thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "No."
Ning Chen was anxious and jumped out of bed, and said according to reason, "A gentleman's words are as good as a horse. Empress, you are the queen, and you cannot keep your word."
Hearing Ning Chen's questioning, Changsun was not angry and replied slowly, "I am a woman, not a gentleman. Besides, I only said that I would like to agree, but I did not say that I would agree."
Ning Chen was so angry that his face turned pale and could not speak. He sat on the bed with a bang, sulking on his own.
"This is invalid, you have another chance to make a request," Changsun reminded.
"there is none left"
Ning Chen was in a bad mood, so he turned around and got into the quilt, covered his head, and said in a muffled voice.
"No hurry, let me tell me what I think of." Seeing Ning Chen being defeated, Changsun was in a very good mood and said.
"Woooooo"
Two whimpers came from the quilt, as if they were responding, but more like a speechless protest...
