72, Chapter 72 Turbulence
There is moonlight tonight, the sun sets, and the surroundings are still bright.
The long swords of those Japanese pirates were blackened in advance, and there would be light on the blade, which was difficult to distinguish in the chaos.
The two of them pressed their backs tightly against more than a dozen short but extremely flexible Japanese pirates, and for a moment they could only hear the sound of wind and the sound of golden sounds.
"These are not ordinary Japanese pirates, but killers!" Lou Jing said coldly.
"Be careful!" Xiao Chengjun waved his sword to chop the long sword above Lou Jing's head. At the same time, Lou Jing bowed and slashed the Japanese pirates crawling to attack the lower plate with one knife. Blood splattered on his face. Before he could wipe it, he rose up and slashed at the black shadow that was rushing to death.
The black-clothed Japanese pirate standing on a high place saw something wrong and said loudly in a cold tone.
The Japanese pirates said "hilarious" again, and their hands suddenly became a little more fierce. More than a dozen black shadows snatched up like mad dogs, and their moves were fatal. It seemed that they did not intend to capture them alive, but wanted to fight quickly and make them both here.
On the other side of the woods, more than a dozen Youyunwei pulled weeds on the roadside bored. Seeing that the sky was getting dark, the master had no intention of calling them.
"Will the master be in trouble?" Yun Yi frowned and looked into the distance.
"You don't understand this, right?" Yun Jiu glanced at him and smiled, "There are no people on the beach, so the master will naturally have to work hard for a while."
Yun Yi snorted, "Master is far away, you have to take a look. Who are you going?"
Everyone couldn't help but think of the night that made people blush and heartbeat in the ruined temple in Linjiang. They immediately stopped, some looking at the sky and some looking at the ground.
Yun Jiu rolled his eyes and swept across the faces of his men. Yun Shiyi had already pretended to survey the terrain. Yun Shiyi, who was in charge of assassination, could not help but turn his eyes to the honest archer, Yun Shiyi, "Twelve, you have the best eyesight, go and take a look from a distance."
"Oh." Yun Shier went out to hunt wild ducks that night. He came back late and didn't understand how difficult it was for these people to stay outside. So Yun Shier nodded and went with his bow and arrow on his back.
Yun Yichong Yun Jiu compared a gesture of admiration, and Yun Jiu smiled proudly, "Chengrun, Chengrun."
Yun Shier passed through the dense forest and hid behind a big tree to look far away at the beach. When he saw that his blood was about to solidify, he saw Lou Jing and Xiao Chengjun surrounded by several black figures, with swords and swords, extremely dangerous.
Seeing that the two long swords were about to machete Xiao Chengjun, Lou Jing couldn't rescue him, so he kicked one person away, and at the same time blocked the attack of another person with his back.
Yun Shier decisively set his bow and shot two arrows together, "Swoosh!" Two black arrows separated halfway, and one arrow shot the hand that slashed at the master, and one arrow shot into the human eye that attacked Xiao Chengjun from behind.
"Ah——" the Japanese pirate screamed shrillly, the arrow was very powerful, and the man immediately covered his eyes and fell from the stone, twitching for a few times and then lost his life.
With Yun Shier's help, Lou Jing's pressure dropped sharply, and the Japanese pirates lost several people, but their desire to fight remained unabated.
Lou Jing wiped the blood from his face. These Japanese pirates were not very good at swordsmanship, but they were fast enough, and there were many people, which was very difficult to deal with.
Yun Shier did not dare to leave, so he had to take out a cannon from his arms, penetrated it on an arrow, ignited it, and shot it into the sky. At the same time, he ran to Lou Jing, shooting arrows at the group of black shadows while running.
Seeing this, the man in black immediately threw a few strange-shaped hidden weapons at Yun Shier. Yun Shier rolled on the spot, dodged the darts, half lying on the ground, and shot an arrow.
The man in black who was standing on the high stone was startled and turned over and jumped off the stone.
"Swish-bang!" The cannon exploded in the air, making a loud noise. The Youyunwei on the other side of the dense forest immediately stood up and rushed into the forest like ghosts.
Once the number of people was equal, the Japanese pirates' quick sword would be useless, and Youyunwei's excellent sword skills quickly made them unable to resist.
"Zhuoyu!" Xiao Chengjun hugged Lou Jing and retreated aside. His tentacles were sticky and he was shocked, "You are injured!"
"Leave two living mouths!" Lou Jing explained and leaned on Xiao Chengjun, "It's not important."
Lou Jing just blocked Xiao Chengjun and hit the back. After that, he became quiet and suddenly felt aroused. He was afraid that the people around him would worry, so he endured the pain and pretended to be relaxed.
"I still said it's not a big deal!" Xiao Chengjun looked at his back soaked in blood, feeling distressed, and squatted down with a short body, "Come up, I'll carry you away."
Lou Jing had already sweated coldly on his head, and he no longer held on his shoulders and leaned over.
The grilled fish was no longer enough, so the group quickly returned to Tingzhi County with two Japanese pirates captured alive. Xiao Chengjun transferred the troops from the county town and quickly surrounded the beach.
"Um... it hurts..." Lou Jing lay on the bed, and the doctor gave the medicine, humming and whimpering.
The doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and the squealing cry of pain fell secondly. The gaze of His Royal Highness, who was almost frozen by the cold eyes behind him, was really terrifying.
After finally finishing the medicine, the famous doctor from Tingzhi County almost fainted. He left some external medicine in the house and went down to decoct the medicine tremble.
Xiao Chengjun sat down beside the bed, touched Lou Jing's forehead, and was covered with sweat from his hands, and couldn't help frowning, "It hurts so much?"
"It doesn't hurt anymore," Lou Jing turned his head to look at him, and said innocently, "This is sweat from the heat."
The blade was very long, but not deep, and it didn't hurt much now. It was just that Lou Jing was very unhappy when he held his mouth in his mouth. He finally recovered his arm, which hurt his back again. You know, they have not been intimate for more than a month.
Xiao Chengjun pushed open the window. This was the guest room of the county government. It was a two-story building. When he opened the window, the sea breeze blew in with a little salty wetness, and the room suddenly became much cooler. "When Japanese pirates attacked, it will soon be uneasy here. We have to leave quickly."
Those people tonight can be guessed without being questioned. They came to explore the way in advance. According to the rules of previous years, a large number of Japanese pirates will inevitably come within three days.
"Um..." Lou Jing buried his face on the bamboo mat in dissatisfaction.
Xiao Chengjun laughed and patted his head, "If you want to come to the beach to play, I will come with you after you fight the Japanese pirates."
"I want to be intimate on the beach..." Lou Jing murmured.
"What?" Xiao Chengjun didn't hear it clearly and approached him.
Lou Jing looked up and bit His Highness the King of Min, "I want to be intimate on the beach!"
"You..." Xiao Chengjun was speechless and glared at him. He saw that the man's fair cheek was poked with red lines by the bamboo mat. He couldn't help laughing and kissed his face one by one, "Let's talk about it when you get it done."
The soft touch touched her cheeks, itchy and warm, and Lou Jing suddenly fainted and didn't know what tonight, so he forgot to record this matter in the small account book.
The fourth prince died in battle. Compared to the still calm Southeast, the capital was already in trouble.
You know, the eldest prince was deposed and the second prince was weak. The only one who could inherit the throne was the fourth prince. Now that he is dead again, the position of crown prince has become a mystery.
Because of his excessive sadness, the queen ignored the harem and temporarily handed over the affairs of the palace to the highest-ranking Concubine Chen.
Concubine Chen smiled happily, immediately tidied up her appearance, brought soup to Panlong Palace to visit Emperor Chunde, but was stopped by Huaizhong. "Empress, the emperor is in a bad mood and no one is seen for the time being."
"I know that the emperor is sad, so I stewed the supplements for the emperor," Concubine Chen said with a sad face, "The Fourth Prince has gone like this at a young age..." As he said that, tears were about to fall.
"The Empress is sad, the Empress is already ill, and the affairs of the six palaces still need to be supported by the Empress." Huaizhong did not care whether it was true or false, but only followed the persuasion.
When Concubine Chen heard this, she felt very helpful and rewarded Huaizhong's silver. "Since that's the case, I will wait here. I have to let the emperor use something."
"But Concubine Chen is outside?" Emperor Chunde's slightly hoarse voice came from the hall. Chen immediately responded. After a moment, a little eunuch came out and told her to go in.
"The Empress is not feeling well and I handed over all the affairs of the Six Palaces to me. I am really frightened and afraid that I have done something wrong." When Concubine Chen did not mention the Fourth Prince, she said something else in a gentle voice.
"It's just a small matter of needles and threads. What mistakes can you make?" Emperor Chunde waved his hand and rubbed his eyebrows.
After receiving this sentence, Concubine Chen quietly chuckled. She was afraid that the queen would give her power a trap, so she informed the emperor in advance, so she let Emperor Chunde know that she had no experience, so as not to be criticized if she made a mistake.
"I am not the emperor. I am at ease in such a big world. These needles and threads make me busy." Concubine Chen said coquettishly.
When Emperor Chunde heard this, he couldn't help laughing out loud, "Women's family is useless." This is also one of the reasons why he has always disliked getting close to the queen. Beside these weak women, he always feels that he is the monarch who controls the world, and in front of Ji Zhu, he becomes the weak and incompetent prince when he was young.
Thinking of the fact that Ruizong wanted to pass over him and confer Xiao Chengjun as the crown prince, Emperor Chunde was so angry that he was so angry that he finally decided to choose the crown prince himself, but one by one happened... Thinking of this, Emperor Chunde couldn't help but turn his eyes to Concubine Chen. Now, there is only the third prince left.
What the emperor could think of was that all the civil and military officials in the court naturally wanted to have it. After the fourth prince, there would be no prince again. Now the candidate for the crown prince is undoubtedly only the third prince.
When Concubine Chen was in power, she immediately recruited foreign wives of third rank or above in the capital to enter the palace and informed the various arrangements for the funeral of the fourth prince. After that, she specially kept two prime minister wives, namely the second wife of the Zhao family and Concubine Chen's own mother, Chen Li.
"There are no outsiders right now, so I have to tell you about some things." Concubine Chen looked at Mrs. Zhao Er who looked respectfully and slowly curled her lips.
Mrs. Zhao Er left Luanyi Palace with a pale face and returned to the mansion to find Zhao Duan, "Prince, Concubine Chen wants to let the third prince marry Jiming!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Duan's cup in his hand slid down and smashed it on the hard bluestone floor tiles.
