Her side face is beautiful, the curvature of the bridge of the nose, chin, and neck, as if carefully polished by a jade carving master.
Before the fire, it is even more soul-stirring.
"Princess Nine..."
"Auntie, I told you not to call me Jiugongzhu anymore, just call me Ajiu." Jiugongzhu said with her chin in one hand, her mouth slightly raised.
"Ninth Princess, how can this be done? This is outrageous." Linghua quickly refused.
She had already learned from Ah Jiu before that the nickname of Ah Jiu was only called by the prince and princess, as well as Ah Jiu's brothers and sisters.
As a small iron toad official of Qixing Prison, if she dared to call Ah Jiu like that, she was afraid that she would be found out about this matter in the future, and she would not be able to escape the torture of the prison.
"I'm not a princess anymore, so there's no such thing as treason." Ah Jiu looked at the candle with a slightly red face: "Aunt Linghua, can I go and play with that brother tomorrow?"
As soon as Linghua heard it, she knew that Ah Jiu was referring to Qin Yuesheng. In fact, Qin Yuesheng was still a year younger than Ah Jiu in terms of physical age, but because of his martial arts practice, his physical appearance would naturally appear much more mature, so that Ajiu was in the When I saw him in the teahouse, I only thought that he was bigger than me, and I had already tacitly accepted him as my brother in my heart.
"That Mr. Qin is not only handsome, but also looks like a banished fairy, and his temperament is even more extraordinary. Even I can't help but feel excited for him, let alone the Ninth Princess." Linghua looked at it. Taking a look at Ah Jiu's expression, as someone who has been there, she couldn't see Ah Jiu's young girl Huaichun at the moment.
That Lord Qin might have teased that little deer in Ah Jiu's heart and knocked him around.
"Princess Nine, let's talk about this tomorrow morning. It's getting late, you should sleep..." Before she could finish her sentence, Linghua's face suddenly changed, and she quickly pulled out the short sword she always wore by her side, and pointed it at Stab under the table.
Under the table, a faceless man who had just crawled out of half of his body was directly stabbed in the face by Linghua's sword.
But the faceless man, like a normal person, grabbed Linghua's wrist with his backhand, pulled it over with force, and bumped his head into Linghua's face.
The strength of this blow was not small. Even if Linghua had her internal protection to stop her, she still felt a huge force hitting her face like a hammer, and the force spread violently into her body. Several of them were dropped.
Seeing this situation, Ah Jiu didn't lose her composure and panicked and yelled. Instead, she hurried to the window, opened the wooden window and shouted to the outside: "Uncle Dongzhou is sick! There are enemies in the room."
Who would have thought that Dong Zhou in the courtyard outside would have been fighting with several faceless men at the same time with a long stick, but he is not as powerful as Qin Yuesheng, so he would already be at a disadvantage and could lose at any time possible.
"Damn it!" Facing the siege of many faceless men, Dong Zhou had tried his best to tense the veins on his face and tried his best, but it would be fine if he fought with a faceless man. The parry ability is greatly reduced.
Swish!
With a slight negligence, a deep wound appeared on the surface of Dong Zhou's body.
The sharp blade condensed from the faceless man's arm is extremely sharp and has a certain effect of breaking Qi. This makes it difficult for Dong Zhou, even if he is a master of internal energy, to protect his internal energy to play a big role at this moment.
Ah Jiu stood by the window and watched extremely anxiously, but there was nothing she could do.
As a princess who was born in the palace with golden branches and jade leaves, she certainly didn't need to study hard martial arts. A group of palace masters had been arranged to protect the nine princesses.
Linghua fought against the faceless man, the strength of both sides was comparable, if Linghua wanted to finish off the opponent, it might take dozens of rounds.
But at this moment, a faceless man suddenly crawled out from the ground next to Ah Jiu's feet, grabbed her ankle, and instantly scared Ah Jiu couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
Linghua heard the voice, noticed the situation here, and her expression changed immediately.
She and Dong Zhou can sacrifice, but Ah Jiu must not have an accident. This is her duty as an official of the Seven Star Supervisor.
Without any hesitation, Linghua directly abandoned the faceless man in front of her, ran towards Ah Jiu without thinking about her own safety, and slashed at the arm of the faceless man who was holding Ah Jiu's ankle with a sword.
"Ninth princess, don't be afraid, I'm here."
"Aunt Linghua, be careful!" Ah Jiu exclaimed.
A spear suddenly pierced through Linghua's neck. A person's neck is so fragile, even a master of internal strength is no exception. If the neck is pierced, death is certain.
"Uh! Nine, Nine, Nine Princesses, hurry up, run away." Linghua looked at Ah Jiu with worried eyes, and stretched out her left hand towards her, but in the end she was no match for the passing of vitality. It was also powerless to let it go.
"Aunt Linghua!!!"
The faceless man who fought with Linghua before quickly withdrew his hand, and saw that his right hand had condensed into the shape of a spear. It was because of this change that he was able to stab Linghua's body from a long distance.
In fact, it was Linghua herself who was careless because she was too worried about Ah Jiu's safety. She never thought that the faceless man's arm could make such a change, and she was caught off guard for a while.
The faceless man's body turned into a big cloth, and immediately wrapped Linghua's entire body, as if she was eating. When the big cloth was wrapped again, her body had disappeared into the faceless man's body.
……
The west gate of Qingyang City.
The two city guards yawned and looked into the distance. Tonight, they were standing guard. If something happened outside the city that suspected the enemy was approaching, it was their job to immediately light a beacon to inform the surroundings.
"Tomorrow we have a rest, why not go to the Orchid Pavilion to have fun, I haven't been there for a long time."
"Go there, we have to work for nothing for a month, let's go to Fule Yaozi Lane, it's cheaper there, and after we're done, we can go to the next tavern to buy two jars of wine to drink."
While the two were chatting, on the horizon in the distance, suddenly there was a billow of dust and smoke, and it struck quickly.
When they got closer, they saw that it was actually a person riding a horse, galloping at a high speed.
Such movements naturally attracted the attention of the patrolling soldiers on the city wall. They lit the beacons one after another and immediately sounded the alarm.
The man was getting closer and closer, and when he was only about thirty feet away from the closed city gate, he had no intention of slowing down.
The soldiers on the city wall who watched couldn't help but wonder, is this man looking for death?
If he hits the city gate at this speed, not only will he not be able to move a bit, but he will also be smashed into a paste on the wall. When he is scraped off tomorrow morning, he may not even be able to tell where his eyes are and where his nose is. .
Under the attention of everyone, the man suddenly raised his right hand and slapped the city gate which was more than ten feet away.
boom!
A huge blue palm came whistling, and hit the iron-cast city gate as thick as an adult.
In an instant, the city gate bent, and the uncontrollable bolt broke, and the whole opened wide.
Chapter 261 [261] Destiny
This city gate weighed a thousand catties at least. Normally, Qingyang City guards didn't send out more than a dozen or twenty soldiers, and they couldn't move it at all.
At this moment, Yuan Wudi was able to open the gate of the city with a single blow from a distance of more than ten feet, which showed his strength, and made everyone in the city dumbfounded and dumbfounded.
Such a fierce person, can their small bodies still stop them?
The black horse galloped like a gust of wind, its footsteps were like thunder, and within a few blinks it had already arrived at the city, and charged into Qingyang City in one fell swoop.
The stone bricks of the avenue in the city were shattered under the gallop of the black horse. Yuan Wudi didn't care about it, but kept looking up at the position of the phoenix and the golden life star in the sky.
It can be clearly seen that the two rotating golden life stars are moving towards the Phoenix, and it is estimated that they will be above the Phoenix in a short time.
"Okay, very good, this general will just be able to catch you all."
Although there was only one horse, the sound it made was comparable to ten thousand horses galloping. It awakened many people who were sleeping on the bed for a while. When they poked their heads out of the window, Yuan Wudi was no longer outside.
