Chapter 258 You two fight
After Fu Yi walked towards the palace gate, no one stopped King Liang on the road.
But the more this happened, the more King Liang felt a chill run down his spine.
Since when has Fu Yi been able to enter and leave the palace freely?
"Greetings to His Royal Highness Prince Liang." The palace servants outside the palace gate saluted him.
King Liang looked up.
Whether sweeping, pruning flower branches, adjusting the incense burner, or tidying up the messy objects on the table... everything is in order, and even exudes a sense of peace that is no different from the past.
It seems like today is just another ordinary day.
But he is not a fool.
The faint smell of blood in the nose has not completely dissipated.
Looking at this peaceful scene in front of me only makes me feel colder under my feet.
"Where is Your Majesty?" asked King Liang.
The palace maid bowed and said, "I don't know."
King Liang said coldly: "How could you not know?"
The palace maids were very careful: "We, the servants, dare not speculate on the emperor's whereabouts."
King Liang held his breath in his chest.
Is this really not something Fu Yi taught me?
I dare not say a word, but every word I say is irritating.
Prince Liang stopped talking to them. Fu Yi was able to do this, so there must be someone inside the palace who was behind it.
Still with one hand on the hilt of his sword, he strode into the hall.
In the past, the palace servants and guards would have reminded him to draw his sword before entering. But today, no one stopped him. He turned the entire palace upside down.
No... no sign of the emperor.
Even if a person dies, there should be a corpse left behind!
Why is there no trace?
"Your Highness?" a palace maid spoke.
King Liang met their puzzled gazes. ...Does that make him seem strange? King Liang sneered inwardly.
"Your Highness, it's getting late. It's time to call the court to order." The palace servant said again.
"Where's the Queen?"
"Your Highness, the time for greetings has passed. You cannot go to see the Queen."
Too.
Ever since the incident at the Dingwang Mansion, his father had never dared to let him go to see the Empress alone. This had become an unspoken rule in the palace.
But now, in such a huge palace, no one can solve his puzzlement.
King Liang gave up looking for the emperor.
Even though there were many things Fu Yi said that he could not agree with, he was not wrong about one thing - he had the military power in his hands.
Why should I be led by Fu Yi?
Let’s wait and see what the sky will be like in the imperial capital tomorrow?
King Liang turned and left.
In the underground area that was firmly divided by iron plates, the old emperor stared with wide eyes, as if he wanted to stare through the iron plates.
It's stuck, it's stuck, it can't be moved anymore.
At that time, the two sides were still in a stalemate at the palace gate.
The palace gate guards refused to budge, their faces stern: "If His Majesty Prince Liang's men refuse to retreat outside the city, they will be charged with treason."
"Just when the situation was critical, His Royal Highness Prince Liang disappeared and never returned. How could we leave with peace of mind?"
"That's right! Let Fu Yi come out!"
King Liang's men shouted angrily. They truly supported King Liang, so after rushing over and seeing that King Liang was nowhere to be found, they grew increasingly impatient, and were now on the verge of mutiny.
The guard sneered, "You've lost your mind! Why are you here asking for Prince Danshuo? Everyone knows the prince has been imprisoned. Are you just making up an excuse?"
Mr. Mo was surrounded by soldiers at this time. He lamented, "The Emperor wanted to deal with Fu Yi, and Fu Yi must have made preparations long ago. It's too late for Your Highness to intervene today! The palace guards can't be completely ignorant. They must have received instructions."
"Then we will force our way in. The more they try to hide it, the more suspicious it seems. We will enter the palace and catch them in the act. Then we'll see what else he has to say." King Liang's subordinates shouted angrily.
His temperament is somewhat similar to that of King Liang.
"The guard said this, presumably intending to mobilize the Three Departments to stop us. You've been out there for a long time, and the Three Departments' guards are no pushovers. If we were to confront them, a fierce battle would be inevitable..."
Mr. Mo said as he stared at the carriage that was blocked by them.
"Go get the people inside out first. If your bet is right and it's Fu Yi inside... then there's no need to waste time talking to them. Someone who should be in prison is being released from the palace. Who among them can handle this?"
Mr. Mo grabbed his subordinate's arm and repeatedly warned him, "Be careful and approach slowly. Be careful of Wu Xun and Fu Ruiming hiding in the carriage."
The subordinate responded and took advantage of the other soldiers' anger to rush forward.
He suddenly drew his knife and lifted the curtain of the carriage.
"How dare you! How dare you draw your sword in front of the palace gate?"
"Stop, stop!"
The palace gate guards finally became anxious.
Inside the carriage, Fu Yi stood still like a mountain. He just turned his head to look at Cheng Nianying, and his face was almost full of complaints - look how cruel they are, they wish they could just kill me.
Cheng Nianying didn't look at him.
Just when everyone's heart was beating in their throat.
There was a "ding" sound.
The subordinate felt a slight numbness in his wrist, and the handle of the knife flew out of his hand without being able to hold it tightly.
When I looked again, I saw a pitch-black... coffin nail lying on the ground.
Coffin nails???
The subordinate didn't have time to rub his wrist, his expression changed slightly, and he was about to rush forward again.
At this time, the curtain was lifted by a hand.
"Still coming?" Cheng Nianying said coldly, "Can you beat me?"
Not all of King Liang's subordinates had seen the process of seeing the shadow play. When they heard that the voice was actually a woman's, the subordinate was stunned.
Could it be that the person in the carriage... really isn't Fu Yi?
"Get out of the way." Cheng Nianying uttered two more words in a crisp voice.
She had just shown her skills, and the subordinate did not dare to look down on her. He opened his mouth to say that he just wanted to check the carriage.
But since there were women involved...it would be against the rules for him to speak no matter what.
He gritted his teeth and turned sideways.
Mr. Mo couldn't help but sigh in the back.
At this moment, the man made a fake move, seemingly giving way, but suddenly reached out from the side again and lifted the curtain on the side of the carriage.
The next moment.
Cheng Nianying turned around and kicked the man's hand.
The carriage was narrow, and when Cheng Nianying wanted to perform this move, she pressed her hand on Fu Yi's knee, making him groan.
Looking at his subordinate again, he took a half step back unsteadily, and when he regained his composure, he lowered his head to look at his hands.
A large area of red...
Inside the carriage, Fu Yi raised his hand to support Cheng Nianying's calf, slowly pushed her back, and chuckled softly, "Kicking him is a bargain for him."
Cheng Nianying curled her lips quietly: "Why didn't anyone come to save you?"
Fu Yi said frankly: "I believe Aying will save me."
He raised his eyes, his gaze deep. "I'm a calculating person by nature, and I know you don't like that. I also know you don't believe whether my feelings are genuine or fake. So how about I be the one to believe you today?"
"I will try to reveal my plans and weaknesses to you, Aying..."
Cheng Nianying was stunned.
But then, from outside, King Liang shouted angrily, "Alright! Stop it!"
Cheng Nianying pursed her lips: "I have something to say, I'm afraid you will be angry."
"What? Go ahead." Fu Yi moved closer to her, ignoring the noise outside. "Why would I be angry?"
Cheng Nianying tilted her head. "That day at Prince Ding's mansion, because of Princess Zhaoning's death, the Dali Temple came to arrest you. You collapsed in front of me on purpose. Mu He is not important at all, but you didn't stop me from looking for her. Because I took Prince Liang to find her whereabouts, it saved Prince Liang from coming to ruin your business."
"The prince has done more than one such thing. How can he reveal them all?"
Fu Yi's voice suddenly got stuck in his throat.
Cheng Nianying took his hand and exposed the wound: "Is the knife you blocked for me different from the one you blocked for the emperor?"
“How could there be no difference?”
"I don't think so. Because the moment you block it, you know what you will get in return." Cheng Nianying looked at him.
For the first time, Fu Yi knew what it felt like to be unable to defend himself.
"It's time for me to leave Imperial Capital. You eradicated Shao Qu Tower for me, and I don't want you to be harmed by the Emperor. I want to protect your safety, so I've stayed here until now. But you're not someone who needs to be rescued. You're the one who's toying with everyone in Imperial Capital. Why do I need to be here?"
For the first time, Fu Yi felt like he was struck by lightning, and completely lost the ability to guess what Cheng Nianying was thinking at the moment.
The scene before him was too sudden and completely different from what he had expected.
Is it his own fault?
He thought that since he was injured, Aying should be more gentle to him. Wasn't this idea wrong?
His throat was hard and he instinctively shook Cheng Nianying's hand: "I..."
Cheng Nianying broke free from his hand and was about to get off the carriage.
Fu Yi blurted out somewhat out of control: "Is it because I'm too powerful?"
Cheng Nianying didn't say anything, just jumped out, then quietly turned back to glance at Fu Yi's expression.
...Oh, so this is what it feels like to play with people's hearts.
Now she felt much better.
"Xiao He!" When King Liang saw her, he immediately rode his horse and chased after her.
Cheng Nianying also looked straight ahead and said, "I'm leaving."
King Liang's expression also changed, and he hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?"
"Go to Heqing."
Her biological mother was there, so King Liang naturally couldn't say anything to stop her. He was just happy to recognize her as a relative, and he wanted to give her everything to comfort her past suffering... All these mixed feelings piled up in his heart and have not been completely relieved until now.
So King Liang touched his upper and lower lips in vain, and finally said nothing.
Cheng Nianying just walked forward.
Everyone looked at each other and at King Liang's expression, and no one dared to stop him.
Leaving Imperial Capital.
——This is the only way Cheng Nianying could think of to break the deadlock.
As Fu Yi meant, the conflict does not only exist between the two of them.
Therefore, she couldn't persuade anyone to back down.
She stayed in the Imperial Capital, and would be in trouble wherever she went. She went to the Prince's Mansion, but Prince Liang hated Fu Yi. She went to the Prince Liang's Mansion, but Fu Yi hated Prince Liang.
It’s better to go far away.
Fu Yi now knew that he had offended her.
King Liang wanted to compensate her but couldn't.
Then at least... when they see each other again, they will try every possible way to save each other's lives so as not to offend her completely, right?
Of course, all this is based on the premise that... Fu Yi really likes her and King Liang really wants to compensate her.
If there is no true love.
You two can fight if you want.
It’s none of my business if you kill me!
Cheng Nianying wrinkled her nose hard.
