Chu Menglin said, "If you swarm me, you won't be my match." She bent her left leg slightly and as fast as lightning she charged toward an Imperial Bodyguard. That Imperial Bodyguard was the most cowardly; when everybody was shouting and cursing at him, he did not say anything. Even though he was hiding among the Imperial Bodyguards, he hid in the furthest corner, hoping not to attract anybody's attention. Unexpectedly, Chu Menglin was a pushover; as soon as the Imperial Bodyguard collided with the Imperial Bodyguard, his shoulder bones were broken. Under severe pain, his right fist fiercely struck in front of his body, but his strength was already weakened.
Chu Menglin leaned her head slightly to evade, her leg swept across the Imperial Bodyguard's lower body, grabbing the Imperial Bodyguard's wrist and throwing him high into the air. The Imperial Bodyguard crashed into several Imperial Bodyguards who were rushing forward. Several Imperial Bodyguards fell to the ground. Some of the Imperial Bodyguards did not manage to stop and tripped over. Chu Menglin's left leg slid back half a step, blocking the tip of one Imperial Bodyguard's foot. This was exactly what she had expected. She elbowed the Imperial Bodyguard behind her, causing him to bleed from his mouth and nose. While she was at it, she snatched the Imperial Bodyguard's saber and kicked backward with her right leg, sending the Imperial Bodyguard flying far away.
Her martial art skill was already extraordinary; now that she had a weapon, her power was like a tiger that had grown wings. She turned around and chopped down with her saber, chopping off an Imperial Bodyguard's arm and snatching the Imperial Bodyguard's saber. Listening to the wind, she retreated diagonally and a moment ago a long spear appeared in the place where she was standing. Chu Menglin's saber met the opponent's saber, which brushed against the opponent's spear. The Imperial Bodyguard saw that Chu Menglin's left side was empty, so his right hand would not be able to return in time to save her, hence he took the risk to attack. Now that she had obtained a saber out of thin air, she was not prepared for any unforeseen event. She was careless and 'shua!' the five fingers holding the spear were chopped off. For a moment the field was filled with cries and shouts, blood and flesh splattered everywhere.
In the blink of an eye, Chu Menglin and the leader were locked in a fight. After a few exchanges, Chu Menglin managed to force the leader to take a few steps back with a single palm strike. Chu Menglin, on the other hand, didn't give chase. She stood where she was, clutching at her clothes as she panted. In order to increase the strength of her attacks, every move of hers was infused with internal energy. When she was seriously injured and forcefully mobilized her true energy, it was needless to say how strenuous it was. When the leader saw this, he twirled the weapon in his hand and gathered his courage to attack again.
. Chu Menglin's eyes darkened........... ........... The Imperial Bodyguard bodyguard. Imperial Bodyguard's Imperial Bodyguard................. Menglin ''s........
. Two Imperial Bodyguards rushed out from behind. Using their knees to press Chu Menglin's knees, they pinned her hands behind her back. The Imperial Bodyguard took the saber from his subordinate and raised it high. "Kid," he shouted, "Money can be earned, but who told you to accept this mission that you shouldn't have? You are courting death. Even if we don't kill you, someday Prince Yu won't let you live. When you reach the netherworld, don't turn into a ghost and cause trouble for us. "
Chu Menglin looked up to the sky. "I was born as Prince Yu's man," she cried out miserably, "When I die, I will be Prince Yu's ghost. Even if you kill me, I will still be loyal to Prince Yu!" Blood gushed out endlessly from her wounds. Her yellow clothes were almost completely dyed red, and her pale face was splashed with a large amount of blood. At this moment, the sun was setting in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on her thin and small figure. It was rather tragic, as if she was a martyr who was about to be executed.
At this time, she heard a shout, "Stop!" Chu Menglin smiled bitterly and thought, "This is ironic. The situation is really similar to the execution ground. I wonder who would be so kind as to come and save me? "Several Imperial Bodyguards stood with their hands at their sides. They bowed and said," Your Highness. " Without anyone to support her, Chu Menglin couldn't stand and fell to the ground. With teary eyes, she saw Dodo rushing over with his entourage.
When they first left the Snow Song Palace, Dodo was a long way behind Li Yijie. Later on, Shen Shiyun suddenly fainted. Li Yijie's heart was completely tied to her. He ignored everything else and immediately rushed to her side to take care of her. Dodo didn't have anything to worry about. Taking advantage of this opportunity, she chased after him without stopping. When she finally caught up with him, she happened to hear Chu Menglin crying and cursing. In her words, she was just lamenting that her bitter love was fruitless. In the ears of the leader, this brat had no backbone. He expressed his loyalty to his master before his death and won the reputation of dying for his master after his death. He was very disdainful of this "last-minute effort". But in Dodo's ears, there were two meanings. Her heart was in turmoil. "I only wanted to stay out of Shen Shiyun's way. Why is this demoness adding to the chaos? What good does it do for her to ruin my reputation? It must be known that suspicion is the easiest to spread. If even one person becomes suspicious today, it will be very disadvantageous for me in the future. Besides, if I let them kill her, how am I going to get the blueprint back? "
When the leader saw him suddenly appear to stop them, he believed Chu Menglin's words even more. He tried his best to persuade him, "Your Highness, this assassin has evil intentions. She must not be allowed to live …" But he had stayed in the palace for a long time. He was very clear that the more he knew, the more likely he would be killed. Even if he accidentally heard something that he shouldn't know, he would have to pretend not to know. This hint couldn't be too obvious. He had to put in a lot of effort.
Chu Menglin lay on the ground, her eyes narrowed to a single focal point. She opened her eyes wide, wanting to see the most important person in her life more clearly. If she could imprint him in her memory at the very last moment, she'd die without regrets. But as soon as he approached, her heart ached. A layer of mist entered her eyes. She could only see his handsome figure swaying in the haze.
Dodo grabbed her collar and mercilessly pulled her up from the ground. "Who ordered you to frame me? Speak! " Chu Menglin choked, "You … wuwu … I …" She struggled to move her lips, but her throat was dry and tight. She couldn't say a complete sentence. Dodo was secretly anxious. He was worried that someone among the guards would notice some clues. He hurriedly said, "You're not going to speak? Very well, I'll take you to the prince's mansion and torture you. Let's see how hard your bones can be! "
Menglin was still thinking about the sweet nothings Lin Yi used to say when the cold words he just said were a stark contrast. An overwhelming wave of sadness washed over her as she lost too much blood. Her internal and external injuries were mixed together, and she lost consciousness in an instant. Dodo didn't explain anything to the guards. He half-dragged and half-dragged her away.
Chu Menglin's limbs felt like they were filled with cotton. Dodo was almost carrying her. He felt her soft and delicate body pressed against his back. He also smelled the faint fragrance of a young girl. His heart was slightly moved. During the bumpy ride, he saw the red and swollen whip marks on her exposed forearms. Although most of them had already scabbed and left scars, he could still imagine the misery of the punishment. He wasn't completely hypocritical towards Chu Menglin. When he thought about the happy times he had with her, he couldn't help but feel a little tender affection for her. He brought her back to the prince's mansion and supported her body to lean against the bed. He sealed a few acupoints to stop the bleeding. He held her hand and transferred his internal energy. Only then did he feel that her consciousness had recovered a little. He hurriedly shook off her hand, as if he was avoiding something evil. He then paced around the room and pondered, "If I want to trick her into willingly handing over the blueprint, I have to start from the front. But when she wakes up, she will definitely ask about what happened before. How should I respond? It's really troublesome. I can't even say a few words to her in peace. "
Chu Menglin's eyelids felt as if they weighed a thousand catties. It took her a herculean effort to open her eyes. She looked around in a daze and thought, "I must be dead. But where is this place? " She felt that her whole body was faintly aching. Not a single part of her body was intact. After a while, she finally remembered the details of what happened. The scenes floated in front of her eyes. They were so real, yet so hazy. It was as if she was in a dream. She then saw Dodo standing in front of the window with his back to her. He looked worried and sick at heart. It seemed as if he had something he couldn't entrust to her. She was suddenly startled, "How can I speak with my original voice? This appearance is so ugly that I could die. I must not let him know! Even if I die, I must let him remember my beautiful appearance. " She used her hands to support herself on the side of the bed. She flipped over and sat down on a round stool. She crossed her legs and said in a rough voice, "Whatever torture tools you have in your mansion, feel free to use them on me. If you really can't, you can hand me over to Shen Shiyun. It's up to you. "
Dodo sighed and walked to her right and sat down. Chu Menglin was shocked and hurriedly turned her head to the left. Dodo was very patient. He stood up and sat to her left. Chu Menglin turned her head to the right. Dodo simply held her face and gently turned it to face him. Chu Menglin couldn't move her head, so she shifted her gaze and looked at the ceiling beam with interest. Dodo sighed, "Why bother, Menglin? I really didn't expect it to be you."
Chu Menglin was so shocked that she trembled violently. Her heart almost rushed out of her mouth. She thought about it again and secretly scolded herself for being foolish, "How stupid. He could bring you back and lay you flat on the bed. Of course, he had enough time to carefully observe you." Hearing his gentle and doting tone, it was as if they had returned to the time when they first met. But the more she knew that it was difficult to return to the past, the more her heart ached. Biting her lips, she suppressed the lump in her throat and said bitterly, "This is fate playing with people. If you knew it was me, you wouldn't have said those words in the Snow Song Palace, right? It's a pity … a pity … It's exactly what you said unintentionally that reveals your true feelings. Unfortunately, I heard it again. "
Dodo said in his heart, "She's right. But I can't follow the conventional explanation. I have to find a different way. " He changed his tone, "No, even if I knew it was you, I would still say those words to Empress Consort Yun."
Chu Menglin thought that he would panic and hide it. But as long as he showed a bit of shame, she could follow the vine and interrogate him. But his expression was calm, as if the two sides had been reversed. The one who harbored grievances had become the one who should feel guilty. He tried his best to hold back his tears, desperately trying to replace his sadness with anger. "How is it? I've already lost my value. You don't even have the patience to say a few nice words to make me happy?"
Dodo said, "That's not the case. It's nice words to you, but not to Empress Consort Yun. If you want to sing an opera, you have to sing it to the fullest. You can't tamper with the script just because you lack spectators. She has great power in her hands. I temporarily endured a moment of humiliation and pretended to pander to her in order to stabilize her. You have to know that those who can achieve great things must endure what ordinary people can't. I can put all the criticisms of the world to the back of my mind. But if even you can't understand, how many people can I expect to understand me? Don't you understand that I'm really sincere to you? Now that you doubt me, could it be that all our memories are fake? That's too chilling. If you want to say that we love each other, it's enough as long as you and I are well aware of it. There's no need for outsiders to prove it, and there's no need to tell her in detail. It's not like you don't know how I treated you at Tong Guan. For the sake of the big plan, I have no choice but to be a bit rude. Could it be that you'd rather believe a few crooked and disgraceful words than believe me? "
Chu Menglin said, "You told me to believe you, so I believed you. They say that hearsay is false, but seeing is believing. But now I've seen it with my own eyes, heard it with my own ears, what else can I say? Just because of a fake Tear of Severing Soul, I … I was almost beaten to death by my father, did you know that? But I still chose to believe you, to protect you. Now that I think about it, I really feel that I'm the number one idiot in the world! In the end, you just can't bear to part with your family heirloom. "While saying that, he wanted to pull up his sleeve to show him the whip marks that covered his entire arm.
