Yang Jinqiao looked at me like this and didn't say anything for a moment, but the atmosphere became much more dull. Sun Jingfei walked to her side and whispered, "You, are you okay?"
Yang Jinqiao said lightly: "It's okay."
Although everyone was in a bad mood at this time, her a little cold words made people shudder. Sun Jingfei only glanced at her, lowered his head and took two steps back, looked around at the people he led, and immediately said: "Hurry, we are going to escort the emperor and Concubine Ning to Jixian Palace!"
"Jixian Palace?"
Yang Jinqiao frowned slightly and turned to look at me: "What are you doing there?"
Before I could answer, a slightly breathing voice behind me said, "She thought that was the safest place left in the palace."
Looking back, it was Nangong Lizhu, who was slowly standing up from the ground.
Her hand was cut by the man's knife just now, and blood flowed like a lot. I almost thought that her hand could not be saved. At this time, when I saw a deep hole was cut off on the back of my hand, and I covered it with my other hand, but the blood kept flowing out of my fingers and lowered down my fingertips.
She looked at us pale: "Is that?"
I also looked at her, then looked at Pei Yuanhao, who was covered in blood next to me. He didn't say anything, but turned around and said to Yang Jinqiao, "Go there first."
Yang Jinqiao was blocked from the Meridian Gate, and probably had nowhere to go at this moment, so he nodded: "Okay."
We all had time to rest and set off again. I saw Nangong Lizhu trembling with pain. After taking only one step, I staggered to kneel down on the ground. I was shocked and thought she was going to help her. I was about to go forward to help her, but I saw her gritting her teeth and standing up.
I saw her touching a short knife from the body on the ground, holding it in her hand, and she kept it tightly.
I didn't say anything, just kept walking forward with them.

By the time we arrived at Jixian Hall, the team had already gone from thirty or forty to more than one hundred.
Along the way, the palace maids and eunuchs who were panicked and fleeing all over the place saw us, especially the bright yellow gown on Pei Yuanhao, which was like a drowning man grabbing a straw and putting all hope on him. Although they did not realize at this time that the lofty emperor himself was also unconscious at this moment and had no ability to protect himself.
But they were still the same as usual, and some people even gathered under Pei Yuanhao's soft chair and surrounded him and walked up the high stairs in front of Jixian Hall.
After going up, I saw that there was no one here!
As soon as Sun Jingfei entered, he was stunned at the empty yard: "Where are the people here?"
The palace maids and eunuchs were also panicked: "Why are there no one?"
"They won't all run away, are they?"
"Now, where else can I go?"
Seeing their increasingly panic, Yang Jinqiao frowned and stepped forward and said, "What are you panic? The emperor, I, and all the empresses are here, and you will be the turn of talking nonsense?"
She was righteous and stern, but she suddenly silenced those people and didn't dare to speak nonsense anymore.
I turned to look at her, and then looked at Concubine Shun, Wen Sisi, Liu Li, and Ye Yunshuang who were following us along the way, all gathered with Nangong Lizhu by Pei Yuanhao. The palace was in chaos, and these concubines who were usually pampered and extremely beautiful were more nervous than anyone else.
Once the rebels really find this place, their fate will be worse than any palace maid and eunuch.
I took a deep breath and said, "Don't be afraid. There will be a road before the car reaches the mountain. When you get here, you can settle down the Emperor first. If the rebels really come - the terrain here is high, it will not be so easy for them to attack."
As he said that, Sun Jingfei glanced at me.
The people around him were all female and eunuchs, so they were naturally easy to fool, but he was different from those guards, and although the Jixian Hall was tall, there was no fortress that could be defended based on it. His soldiers were only a few dozen. Those rebels could attack Xuanwu Gate, but they had more than a hundred people just encountered on the road, which showed that there were a lot of them.
I looked at him, gave a secret wink, and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
"yes."
The people followed us and carried Pei Yuanhao's soft chair to the hall inside. Sun Jingfei had already stayed outside and directed some people to close the gate outside Jixian Hall and hold there.
I walked in the front and walked through the yard in the middle with those people. I had just walked up to the steps outside the hall in front when suddenly something suddenly flew over. I screamed in fear and shrank.
With a whoosh, a cold light brushed through my ears and flew over, snatching and nailing it to the beams and pillars behind me.
I was still scared, and when I looked back, it turned out to be an arrow!
That's-
Before I could speak, the people following me were already screaming in fear: "There are rebels!"
"Escape quickly!"
With this shout, they were about to escape in all directions. I stretched out my hand and said, "Wait a minute!"
The people turned around and looked at me, but I didn't look at them, but looked at the closed door on the steps, and there seemed to be a figure flashing behind the door.
I shouted: "I am Yan Qingying!"
Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet.
Then, he saw the door slowly opening and walked out from behind. He turned out to be a student from Jixian Hall. His wide sleeves and wide robe was tied tightly on his wrists and ankles with several cloth belts, which looked particularly neat. He held the bow and arrow in his hand and looked at us cautiously: "Is it Senior Sister Yan?"
"It's me!"
The man seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and hurriedly waved to him, then went down the steps and walked towards us.
I greeted the people behind me not to move. When I looked again, the doors on the steps opened one after another. More than a dozen students walked out of it, dressed up like him. The leader came to me. He was a very handsome young man with a childish face and cold sweat on his forehead. When he saw me, he nodded to me: "Sister Yan."
"Where is Lord Fu?"
"The teacher is in the library behind us, let's guard outside."
"Should?"
I looked at the library not far ahead. It was not far from the library, but there was a main hall in the middle, a back hall, and winding paths around it and countless grass and trees. It looked particularly deep. I immediately understood: "He asked you to protect the library?"
"Yes," the student nodded, "The teacher said, you can throw away anything else, and you can't throw away the things in the library."
I couldn't help but smile in my heart.
What he values is different from what the world values.
Fortunately, everyone here is still there, and as far as I know, his teachings are not limited to books. The "shooting" in the Six Arts of Confucianism is what we need most at this moment. It can be seen from the arrow that the student shot me just now. I hurriedly said, "How many people are there here?"
The student said, "Nearly a hundred people."
“Are you all around?”
"yes."
"That's good, call them all out and obey them at the front door."
"What?"
The student was stunned for a moment, then looked back at his fellow brothers, and these people were also a little hesitant: "But, the teacher is asking us to protect the library."
I said angrily, "Can you protect Jixian Hall, can't you still protect the library? If those people come in and set a fire, do you think the library can protect it alone?"
When the student was angry, he was immediately startled. He probably remembered the fire in Jixian Palace back then. He nodded quickly, but hesitated: "But the teacher--"
"He is blind, can he care about the outside? If something really happens, let him come to me!"
The student heard what I said, no longer hesitated and hurriedly put away the bow and arrow: "I understand, I'll tell them now."
As he said that, he turned around and was about to walk back, and the other students stayed by my side.
I suddenly remembered something again and asked, "By the way, where is Qi Bixing?"
"Senior Brother Cha?" The students looked at each other and shook their heads: "I didn't see him."
"Didn't see him? He went out?"
"I don't know, no one has seen him since the beginning of the accident outside."
"Have you seen him?"
"No."
“…”
I hesitated for a moment—
Before, I designated Yan Wuqing Taoist Hall and Jixian Hall as the two safest places in the palace. Naturally, because there are two "masters" in these two places. Yan Wuqing can protect the Supreme Emperor, and Jabixing can protect Jixian Hall, but I didn't expect Jabixing to disappear!
Where has he gone?
Just when my thoughts were in a mess, Wen Sisi next to me was already looking at me anxiously: "Miss Yan, what about us? What should we do?"
I looked back at her, then at the terrified people, took a deep breath, barely calmed down, and then said, "You all go into the hall, right in front of you."
When they saw it, they didn't care about anything and immediately rushed towards the other side.
When I was carrying Pei Yuanhao's soft chair by my side, I saw Nangong Lizhu still following him. Her hand, which had been stained with blood, was tightly holding Pei Yuanhao's hand. No one stopped her bleeding, and the blood kept pouring out of the hands of the two people.
I frowned when I saw it.
And she, with a pale face, as if she had no feeling, was led by Pei Yuanhao, slowly walked in.
I originally wanted to call her, but hesitated for a moment. At this time, several people from the imperial guards guarding the gate flew in and said breathlessly: "Miss Yan, please go out quickly."
I looked back at them: "What's wrong?"
"You, go and have a look."
“…”
I was puzzled, what did they guard the gate, let me go over and do?
