Chapter 1053 Life is worse than death
Chapter 1053: Life is worse than death
The cold wind of late autumn poured into the house through the open door, making people shiver with cold.
Fan Qingyao's lips had turned white. He looked up at the masked man holding him hostage and said, "Since you came to kill me, you should know my identity. This is a palace. If you really What will happen to me, how far do you think you can go?"
The masked man looked at Fan Qingyao silently, his eyes that were originally flashing with a fierce light, but now he felt a little clearer.
Obviously, Fan Qingyao's words gave him a little worry.
Seeing this, Fan Qingyao took the opportunity and said, "I boast that I have a lot of troubles, but I can swear to God that I have never murdered anyone else. Why do you insist on taking my life?"
“You’re talking nonsense. I’ve seen with my own eyes how miserable the people you killed are, and yet you still have the nerve to quibble!” The masked man said and grabbed Fan Qingyao’s hair tightly.
Fan Qingyao felt pain and quickly said, "Since you said so confidently, why don't you tell me who I killed?"
The man stared at Fan Qingyao with hatred, but he was not very wary. He obviously knew that Fan Qingyao was about to die, so what if he told her the truth?
Fan Qingyao finally breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the masked man slowly letting go of the dagger in his hand. Now she could only try her best to buy time, as long as she could find the right opportunity to drop the silver needle in her sleeve into the man's chest. Acupuncture points, she just has the possibility of survival.
But at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded outside, "Your Highness, what are you going to do? Don't scare cousin Qingyao!"
The dagger that had just left his neck was forced on Fan Qingyao's neck again. At the same time, a figure blew into the room like the wind. Almost before the masked man could react, he struck with a palm. On the back of the masked man.
The masked man seemed not to have expected that the visitor's hand was so strong. When he felt the pain, a mouthful of blood spurted on the black gauze covering his face, and he fainted after looking at his eyes.
Fan Qingyao felt his body light up. By the time he saw the person clearly, all dangers had been eliminated.
Baili Fengming didn't have time to see the true face of the masked man. He just held Fan Qingyao's thin body tightly in his arms, as if it was embedded in his own body to feel safe.
Fan Qingyao said, "This person broke in here late at night. He is probably very familiar with the palace."
She lives next to the Queen's Palace. Although there are not many guards here, the guards at the Queen's Palace are extremely tight. Since this person was able to evade all the guards, he came quietly. Here, it can be seen that he is definitely not an outsider.
Thinking about this, Fan Qingyao added, "Didn't you beat someone to death?"
This matter is very strange and can only be found out if someone is left alive.
Baili Fengming hugged her and never responded.
Fan Qingyao said doubtfully, "Baili Fengming, you..."
Before she could finish her words, she felt a lightness in her body, and then she was hugged by Baili Fengming and sat on the bed. Baili Fengming took out her cloak from the cabinet and carefully wrapped her in it. He got into it, then picked her up and walked out.
Fan Qingyao, “…”
Even if you don’t speak, why are you behaving so strangely?
“If something happens to you, what will happen to me?”
"What?"
Fan Qingyao was thinking about what was going on in his heart, but he really didn't hear clearly. Baili Fengming suddenly lowered his head and looked at her, his voice so deep that it made people feel panicked and heartbroken, "Ayao, have you ever experienced a day when life is worse than death, and you look forward to the feeling of death every day?"
At this moment, Shaoxuan and Lin Yi rushed in with their guards. Countless torches lit up the sky, and also illuminated Baili Fengming's face that had been hidden in the night.
His face seemed to be a bit paler than hers, and his dark eyes were like two obsidians inlaid on the fat, unusually eye-catching.
It is precisely because of this that Fan Qingyao can see at a glance that the desolation and sorrow immersed in his eyes at this moment cannot be rubbed away or eliminated.
Fan Qingyao has never seen such a hundred miles of phoenixes, helpless and lonely like a lost child.
Almost subconsciously, Fan Qingyao leaned into his arms, saying nothing, and silently nestled on the chest behind him, trying to use his own body temperature to warm the heart that was still beating rapidly.
"I told you, something must have happened to my little aunt!" Ren Ge'er took Shaoxuan's hand and said with a confident look on his face.
Shaoxuan was really shocked. Looking at the corpses scattered in the yard, he couldn't react for a long time.
It was a coincidence that not long after His Royal Highness the Prince rushed into the courtyard, they led the team to patrol back, but they were blocked by Ren Geer, who was not as tall as him.
After sorting out his thoughts, Shaoxuan stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, how should we deal with it?"
"Put the corpses in order, and keep a close eye on the people inside. Be sure not to let anyone die." Baili Fengming spoke calmly, without any emotion in his voice.
After saying that, he hugged Fan Qingyao and walked out.
Shaoxuan and Lin Yi looked at each other and said, let’s get to work.
Fan Qingyao was carried out of the courtyard by Baili Fengming and went directly to the Queen's palace. The Queen had already fallen asleep. When she heard that the two were coming, she quickly got up to change clothes and wash up.
Almost instantly, the lanterns in the Queen's palace lit up.
Queen Zhen Xi was helped out by Lily. She saw the blood marks on Fan Qingyao's neck at a glance. Her eyes were full of worry and surprise, "Lily, hurry up and ask the imperial doctor to come over!"
Fan Qingyao is a doctor himself, so he knew the injury was not serious and said, "It's just a superficial injury, so there's no need to bother."
Queen Zhenxi walked in and took a look. It was indeed just a broken skin. She was relieved. She motioned for the two of them to sit down and asked, "What happened?"
Fan Qingyao told the Queen in detail what he had just experienced.
Queen Zhen Xi was frightened when she heard this, and waves of anger rushed up her heart, "That's so bold! You actually assassinated the Crown Princess late at night. Are people these days impatient with life?"
Fan Qingyao comforted the empress and said, "Mother, don't be so angry that you are so angry. I have been arrested by Shaoxuan Shaofu and others. I think the result of the trial should be available soon."
Empress Zhen Xi nodded, and subconsciously looked at her son, wanting to ask what her next plan was, but looking at her son's silent expression, the words that came to her lips were not spoken.
Obviously I feel distressed.
