    Princess Huaping regained her true self and recalled what she had experienced in Prince Xiao's Mansion. She still had lingering fears. Recalling the original assassination plan, she felt as if she had been possessed by an evil spirit. Why should she take such a risk?  The princess was not used to blaming herself, so her suspicion quickly turned to others.  Shangguanru noticed that the princess's gaze was a little strange and asked: "What's wrong?" The princess realized that now was not the time to shirk responsibility. She was not out of danger yet, "Who is that woman chasing you? Martial arts very strange,  Luo Pingying said she was a top expert. "She is a friend I used to know. There was a misunderstanding between us," Shangguan Ru said, thinking that the misunderstanding between them would never be explained.  Luo Pingying led his swordsmen to rescue the princess and the queen mother. Their whereabouts did not escape Shangguan Ru's eyes. She quickly followed, but was intercepted by Huo Yun. The two fought from inside the house to outside the house, and Nie Zeng participated.  , originally wanted to fight two against one, but Shangguan Ru did not allow him to kill Huo Yun, so it turned into a three-party brawl.  The princess had not transferred her grievances to Shangguan Ru at that time, so she ordered Luo Pingying to come and help. Huo Yun was a killer and found that the situation was not good for her, so she immediately ran away.  When everyone returned to the princess's attendant's home, Luo Pingying believed that Huo Yun had been following them, so he assigned swordsmen to guard them closely, while he himself went to find out the news.  The princess did not ask about Huo Yun's identity. She had more serious issues to consider, "Luo Cong betrayed me, this bastard" The princess looked around, and Pang Jing was in despair. The two swordsmen were watching the outside of the room without any distractions. The attendants and  The maid looked pale.  It seemed that even the soul had been lost. In the end, only Shangguan Ru and the Queen Mother were worth talking to.  "What happened to Prince Xiao? He actually sent the Yulin Army to ransack his home." Shangguan Ru was also confused. The Queen Mother was the only one who remained calm in the room. She once refused to leave the palace, especially the Luo family.  The swordsman's touch, and finally the princess's order, a swordsman carried the Queen Mother on his back and left. The Queen Mother did not realize that she lacked anything because of this, but she was very unhappy in her heart.  "Of course the emperor wants to eradicate the roots. How could he let a group of Jianghu people go around claiming to be the emperor's benefactor?" The Queen Mother was very satisfied with her son's ruthlessness.  "Ungrateful." The princess whispered, suddenly thinking that she was also the target of the emperor's ingratitude, she raised her voice: "Isn't the emperor afraid of rebellion by Jianghu people? Each major faction selected a few masters, sneaked into the palace and killed the emperor." Princess  She made a stabbing motion, but her assassination plan failed to be implemented, and she couldn't help but feel resentful.  "If the emperor was so easy to kill, wouldn't the world be in chaos long ago?" the Queen Mother taught patiently.  "The palace guards thought that the emperor was dead, so they stood by and watched. When the emperor reappeared, they would immediately run to serve him. Moreover, the emperor would later charge these charlatans. If I guessed correctly, then  The thieves could not provide any evidence that they were working for the emperor or Prince Xiao. Not only would the survivors not be able to take revenge, they would also have to find ways to get rid of the relationship and claim that they were deceived.  He was very angry after losing a move in conspiracy.  "Listen." Shangguanru pointed outside, paused for a moment and continued, "Don't you think it's strange?" The streets were full of officers and soldiers.  He loudly ordered every household not to go out for the time being, as the government was searching for the remnants of the bandits.  King Xiao and Yu Linjun have taken control of the situation.  "What's wrong?" The princess didn't understand what was strange, "Prince Xiao is proud." "There is no news from the emperor," Shangguan Ru said.  Once the princess thought seriously, she reacted very quickly, "Haha, Queen Mother, although your 'emperor' is smart, he just forgot one thing" "Impossible." Before the princess could finish speaking, the Queen Mother categorically denied it.  .  "Is it impossible for Prince Xiao to betray?" The princess, who had been suppressed by the Queen Mother's momentum, finally breathed out, "The emperor has been 'dead' for a month, and the crime has been placed on you and me. It's easy for Xiao.  Why doesn't Wang choose? " "Prince Xiao doesn't have the courage," the Queen Mother concluded. She knew Prince Xiao and believed that the emperor had the ability to control this uncle.  The princess pouted. In her heart, she also thought that Prince Xiao did not have this ability. "Then why doesn't the emperor show up?" "Because you and I are not dead yet." The Queen Mother came up with a reason for the emperor, "I am him.  Mother, you are a princess. No matter how big a crime you commit, you will have to forgive it after the emperor shows up, so he can't show up now. " This explanation sounds reasonable, but the princess can't argue, and is looking for other reasons to irritate the Queen Mother.  Luo Pingying, who went out to find out the news, came back.  As the leader of the Luo family swordsmen, Luo Pingying had never met the princess before, but he still insisted on protecting the princess and regarded this as?A kind of oath.  He looked unhappy, "There are rumors in the capital that the ministers are preparing to leave the city together to welcome Prince Xiao to the palace and ascend the throne." "Impossible." The Queen Mother denied it again, but her tone was no longer as sure as before.  Luo Pingying glanced at the Queen Mother and continued to say to the princess: "The Yulin Army has taken control of the whole city and killed many Jianghu people. The survivors have fled outside the city. You can't walk casually on the streets. It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Your Highness should also  Get ready to leave the city." "Leave the city? Where to go?" "Go to Luojiazhuang, or hide somewhere. There is always a place to hide in the world." The princess let out a series of laughter, and then looked at the Queen Mother.  We have been enemies from the first day we met, but at this moment we are also people who understand each other, "Luo Pingying, I am not from Jianghu. Although the world is big, I can only live in the capital. If I leave here, I will hide here and there without any power."  "It's better to kill me now." This is why the Queen Mother is willing to wait for death. Unless the emperor is willing to forgive her and restore her status, the Queen Mother would rather die.  Luo Pingying actually understood what the princess meant and bowed slightly, "Your Highness, please allow me to let go of two of my disciples to inherit the Luo family's swordsmanship. The others will stay and die to fulfill their responsibilities." The princess was surprised. She regarded loyalty as inevitable.  , but she never expected that the swordsman she rarely met would be the one willing to stay by her side at the last moment, instead of the group of bearded men and court officials.  "Of course, you can let a few go." There were only seven swordsmen left in the Luo family. Luo Pingying called them all in and appointed two people, "Pingsheng, you are not the best swordsman in the Luo family, but you have learned from the Luo family.  All stunts, so you have to survive. Shaojie is still young and has an unlimited future. From now on, you two will be master and apprentice. Don't go back to Luojiazhuang. Find a place to practice martial arts incognito until you are capable.  Take back the Qiankun Shift from the people of the Western Regions, do you understand?" "Yes." The two swordsmen neither declined nor promised. They bowed to the other five Luo family swordsmen one by one, then bowed to the princess and turned around without saying anything.  left.  The princess was deeply touched and influenced by this, she made another decision and said to several attendants and maids: "Don't wait with me to die, go find your own way to survive." The attendant felt that he should say something,  But he was afraid that if he said too much, he would lose the chance to get it, so he knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the princess several times, stood up and ran out tremblingly. Everyone else followed suit, and no one dared to say a word.  The princess sighed, thinking that this was the final outcome. She suddenly smiled and said to the Queen Mother: "I have five swordsmen left, but you have nothing." "My son will dominate the world alone." The Queen Mother refused at all.  Throw in the towel.  The princess shook her head with a smile and turned to Shangguan Ru: "You can leave too. You are not from the Central Plains, and you are not my follower. There is no need to get involved in things here." When facing Pang Jing, her face darkened, "You can't leave, you must stay.  Come down and die.¡± ¡°The princess gave up too early,¡± Shangguan Ru said.  "This is not the Western Region." The princess said softly. This was the first time she admitted that she was much older than Shangguan Ru. "You see the few of us fighting back and forth. In fact, the decision-making power is in the hands of those faceless ministers. They  By refusing to come forward last night, the Queen Mother and I have lost everything. The so-called assassination was just a sudden whim of mine. I'm sorry for causing trouble for you." There was an atmosphere of telling the truth in the room, Shangguan Ru said.  : "I have my own selfish motives." She looked at the Queen Mother, "The Queen Mother has told me everything." The princess smiled and was willing to devote herself wholeheartedly to another person. It must be a good feeling, but she can no longer experience it.  , maybe he has never experienced it before, "Then there is no need for you to stay. Go to the Dragon King and tell him the truth. Tell him that the Queen Mother and I died together, and his only enemy is the Emperor." "  The truth!" Shangguan Ru's eyes lit up and he wondered why he hadn't thought of this earlier.  "What?" "The emperor is not dead at all, so the charge of regicide is naturally not established. We only need to prove that the Jinpeng killer has nothing to do with the Queen Mother and the princess, then even the last charge will no longer exist." The princess and the Queen Mother looked at each other, no one could  Without showing any interest, "The emperor can always find a crime to blame. He will say that he discovered the danger in advance, so he secretly arranged a substitute. Although he is not dead, the fact that the Queen Mother and I 'regicide' cannot be shaken off. The words between us are not at all  "No one will believe it." "Who?" "Those heroes who survived were framed by King Xiao and the emperor. Some people will believe it." "The mob."  The princess said softly, butHer heart was a little moved. The performance of the Luo family swordsman just now gave her a little hope.  "I will not be an enemy of the emperor." The queen mother flatly refused.  "It's not an enemy." The princess rushed to explain, "We are not trying to seize the throne. We are just restoring our previous status. A slightly lower status is acceptable." The Queen Mother was still hesitating.  Luo Pingying suddenly pulled out his sword, and the other four swordsmen immediately stood in front of the princess.  Two things broke through the window and fell to the ground. They rolled around a few times. Everyone gasped. They were clearly the heads of Luo Pingsheng and Luo Shaojie. The two people who held the hope of the Luo family died before they even left the capital.  If Shangguan knew it, Huo Yun was chasing him.
