Chapter 142: Beijing fire
Gu Yuqi really didn't know that King Fu looked like this.
After a while of stunned she was endlessly sighed. It's no wonder that Yun Ke in the previous life was always brooding about her unwillingness to marry the King of Fortune... She really didn't know that the King of Fortune that she was accused of marrying was ruined. Maybe he also thought that he had learned about the destruction of King Fu's face in advance, so he stopped the imperial court, and made it clear that he wanted to die.
Really good-for-nothing! She has lived for two lifetimes, and only now does she know what King Fu looks like.
In the last life, if she honestly married King Fu. Maybe not so much.
Although King Fu's appearance is completely ruined, he is such a good person, learned, gentle, and funny. If he gets along with him, he will gradually fall in love with him. It may not be exciting to be with such a gentle person for the rest of his life, but it is. Long and long, but also a kind of happiness.
Why was it Yun Ke who was the first person to meet her instead of King Fu?
Gu Yuqi felt a little pain in her heart. In the mountain temple, the white-shirted boy standing under the scorching peach blossoms, the scenery is full of moon, cold and clear, just a glance, it is beyond redemption. Everything is from the evil of that one eye.
Princess Pinghu and Rouge, who had exchanged clothes now, were surrounded by people and walked out of the inner room.
If you don't look carefully, you just can't tell where Princess Pinghu is.
At this moment, Bai Fu grabbed the bow and arrow and rushed down, "Miss. There are too many people, and we are about to run out of bow and arrow."
Gu Yuqi followed Bai Fu up to the second floor and looked around, her face darkened, she was really about to break through, and the treasures in Linglong Building could delay their pursuit.
"Danmo, you stay with me." Gu Yuqi called Dianmo over and said to her, "cover them to go first. If the two of us accidentally get lost, no matter what, we will go to the east of the city after nightfall. The shadow alleys converge."
"En." Ranmo nodded, took a bow and shot an arrow, and shot a thief who was trying to get close.
"Bai Fu, take them to the other side first. You leave all the arrows behind." Gu Yuqi finished speaking to Bai Fu, and took the bow and arrow from her hand. Bai Fu was familiar with the terrain of the Princess Mansion, so she would lead the way. Better yet. Gu Yuqi couldn't trust the eldest princess. The eldest princess is used to enjoying happiness. Even though this is her home, she probably doesn't even know how big her home is. Bai Fu is different. She has lived here for the past few days. She has gone out every night, and has already touched the princess's house. She knows where to go and where it is not easy to go.
In Ying'er Hutong, there is a small house under the new sale of Gu Yuqi. At that time, it was for the living after leaving the Hou Mansion, and it was also bought for Liang Huaiyu. The location of the house is quite hidden, and it is not easy for the small family to attract the attention of the bandits.
They won't let the high-profile households not rob, but instead rob places where there is no oil and water. At this time, the houses are more peaceful in comparison.
The other guards handed over the few feather arrows left in their hands to Gu Yuqi's hands. He immediately clasped his fist at Gu Yuqi, turned and went downstairs.
"I'll stay too." Gu Yuqi had just drawn the bow and arrow when she heard a calm voice coming from her side. She turned her head and saw that it was Wang Yan. He took a bow from the other guards and stood beside her. behind.
"Thank you." Gu Yuqi smiled gratefully, and then aimed at a thief who was approaching. When she released her hand, the bow and arrow rushed out like a shooting star, sticking straight into the thief's chest.
As soon as Bai Fu went downstairs to express Gu Yuqi's meaning, Du Xia's heart sank immediately.
She actually stayed behind, didn't she know how dangerous it would be?
"It's not too late, hurry up." Bai Fu saw everyone looking at each other, but no one moved. She stomped her feet in a hurry. She was in a hurry, and she pulled up Princess Pinghu, who was wearing a rouge dress, and put her back on her back. "Offended!" She growled, and jumped out of the window with Princess Pinghu on her back.
When the others saw this, they hurriedly followed.
"Bai Fu, the gate is safe." Gu Yuqi saw the scene in the yard from above and reminded her.
"Yes." Bai Fu didn't say a word, and went to open the door with Princess Pinghu on his back. A guard came to help. The black iron door was quickly opened, and everyone poured out from the door.
"Northwest corner." Gu Yuqi looked upstairs and said to Bai Fu.
"Understood. Take care, miss." Bai Fu nodded and ran towards the safe position indicated by Gu Yuqi with Princess Pinghu on her back. Although Du Xia was reluctant, his mission this time was to protect Fu Wang Yunling. He could only ask others to carry the stunned Fu Wang on his back, and looked back deeply at the long-standing man standing by the window on the second floor. Girl in red.
Under the scorching sun, the redness of his body was like a burning cloud, deeply stinging his eyes and his heart.
The heroic appearance of the bow became a picture scroll that would never be erased, engraved into his heart like a brand.
Without the burden of a lot of people, Gu Yuqi felt more relaxed. She, Dianmo and Wang Yan were obviously in a triangle attack situation. The feathered arrows shot out sharply, like ghosts that kill their souls, every arrow would shoot. There is only one thief, although there are only three people, but the effect created is extraordinary, and the people who are stunned do not dare to move forward rashly.
"Miss, the arrows are gone." After Ranmo shot the bow and arrow behind him, he touched the empty quiver beside him and said to Gu Yuqi.
Gu Yuqi looked down and saw that there were only three arrows left in the quiver in front of her. She looked at Wang Yan again, and Wang Yan still had one arrow in his hand.
"Let's go." They had already procrastinated for a long time. Bai Fu was a clever person, and Du Xia was among those people, so he should be able to run out of the Princess Mansion.
The three of them dropped their bows and flew out from the side of the second floor.
If these three people want to escape in the princess's mansion, it is not difficult. Because the princess mansion is really big. Even thieves can't find such a big place. Moreover, the three of them are all agile, and Wang Yan, who was born in the dark guard, is the most handy when it comes to sneaking around.
The three of them were in the corner together. If they were to go out at this moment, it would be better to wait in the Princess Mansion until it was dark. The situation outside was unknown, and it would be easy to get into trouble if they went out hastily. However, there were many places for the three of them to hide in the Princess Mansion. There were a lot of people in the group before, and it was hard to hide in the princess' house, but with only three people left, it was a completely different situation.
Dianmo also explored the princess' mansion, and took them to a very remote small house, which was originally used to store debris, but later the house was dilapidated and ready to be renovated, so all the debris was moved out, and the place was empty.
The three of them hid in the Princess Mansion until the night, and saw the fire blazing outside through the dilapidated window. Only then did the three of them look at each other with a heart-to-heart, and turned out of the Princess Mansion. When the three of them landed outside the fence, and looked back at the Princess Mansion, which had already been set on fire, the bottom of my heart was also sad.
Now most of the buildings of the resplendent Princess Mansion have sunk in the raging fire.
"Let's go." Ran Mo pulled Gu Yuqi's sleeve and said softly.
"En." Gu Yuqi withdrew her gaze and walked towards Shadow Hutong with Wang Yan and Dianmo.
The traces of being robbed by bandits along the way can be seen everywhere, and the smell of burning can be smelled everywhere. The originally prosperous capital seems to be caught in a sea of fire. The dark night sky is half-reddened by orange flames, sinking in a In the midst of hell, cries and screams came faintly with the wind, like a ghost trying to kill.
Even Wang Yan, who was a dark guard, was used to life and death, and he couldn't help clenching the hilt of his sword when he saw the tragic situation of an old and young family being wiped out on the street.
He should not have the concept of right and wrong. If the master wants him to kill, he will kill, but there is at least one reason for him to kill. These bandits have absolutely no reason. Looting, burning and killing, the worst side of human nature is completely tonight. presented before their eyes.
"The guards in the capital are so vulnerable." Wang Yan couldn't help cursing.
"Then ask what His Highness the Crown Prince is doing." Gu Yuqi said in a deep voice.
Wang Yan was silent, he had overstepped. As a member of Prince An's mansion, he should not arbitrarily discuss government affairs, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble to his master.
But after being with Gu Yuqi for a long time, he seemed to forget that he was still the secret guard of the palace.
It's because the free time is too long.
Seeing the tragic situation in the street market, Gu Yuqi's stomach also twitched. It's not that she hasn't killed anyone, and she didn't even blink her eyes when she killed someone, but it was in the case of self-protection. Nothing to be hypocritical. But those who died on the street were innocent civilians.
Gu Yuqi vaguely thought of something, and the more she walked, the heavier her mood became.
The so-called Gengzi Rebellion must be attributed to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. She didn't think about it in the last life, but what she experienced in this life was different from the previous life, so she had to think about it.
How could the capital city and the Princess Mansion be breached so easily? If there is no one to cooperate from the inside and the outside, the riots will come together, and the soldiers and horses of the five cities will close the gates of the city, and it will not be so easy for the bandits from outside to pour in.
Beforehand, there was an ambush in the capital, and both Bai Fu and Dianmo saw that there were people wearing the clothes of the guards of the Princess Palace mixed with the bandits, which was a good proof of this. I am afraid that not only the Princess Mansion, but also the Royal Palace should be ambushed.
Day and night defense, home thieves are difficult to prevent.
The prince was demoted, and Emperor Jing's health deteriorated after this battle, which is probably the reason.
"Who is it!" A voice came from the alley.
"Let's go." Seeing that they were discovered by a group of thieves who were setting fire to the house, Wang Yan immediately pushed Gu Yuqi.
"Someone!" There were about ten thieves holding torches. When they saw Gu Yuqi and the three in the alley, they chased after them with knives.
The person chasing at the front only felt a silver light flashing in front of him, and then his chest became cold. He looked down at his chest in amazement, and was stabbed by a silver gun. As soon as Gu Yuqi exerted force, she stabbed the tip of the spear into his chest fiercely, and stabbed it out of the back with a puff.
Gu Yuqi stomped the first person's belly with a kick, and pulled out the blood-stained spear. Wang Yan's figure flew from behind her like a wild goose, and attacked the bandits who were chasing after her.
