Chapter 173 The dream is broken

Zhu Yixuan stood up and closed the door, pulled Guo Rong to kneel down, and said, "Guanyin Bodhisattva, please forgive us for your carelessness, protect your disciples Zhu Yixuan and Guo Rong to grow old together and forever." After the two of them left, they closed all the doors tightly, for fear that the wind would blow in and blow out the eternal lights.

After leaving Baitou Temple, the two walked back side by side. Suddenly, they heard a slight footsteps behind them. Guo Rong knew that a master was approaching, so he hurriedly looked back, but saw one of them running to the nearest place. Suddenly, a cold light flashed, and a long sword stabbed him. Guo Rong hurriedly hugged Zhu Yixuan and avoided it. After standing still, he saw the man standing in the middle of the road, blocking the way they went with a sword.

Guo Rong looked at the moonlight and could vaguely recognize that it was Zhuo Jinzhong, the envoy of Jinyiwei, and the sword in his hand was Wei Zhong. Guo Rong knew that Zhuo Jinzhong was not aware of it, but he didn't know why he was here this time. Guo Rong asked, "Empress Zhuo Zhong, why are you here?" Zhuo Jinzhong murmured, "Do you have nothing to be left to miss?" Guo Rong was shocked: Why did he ask himself such a question, what is the deep meaning? But Zhu Yixuan said, "I have never been nostalgic, why are there still nostalgic? Go back quickly, you are not welcome here." Guo Rong was even more shocked: What does the princess mean when she said such a question?

Zhuo Jinzhong said: "Why are you so ruthless to me? You are not a ruthless person." After a pause, he continued: "I watched you grow up since I was a child and silently guarded you for so many years. Your smile and frown are deeply imprinted in my heart and will never be erased in this life. But why are you so cruel to me and leaving me?" Zhu Yixuan said: "From childhood, I just treat you as my elder brother. When I see you are injured, I will be sad and cry. When I see you are happy, I will be happy for you. But we are just brothers and sisters, and we will always be brothers, which cannot be changed. Brother Zhuo, thank you for your care over the years. But now I have found someone who can take care of me. You should go to find someone who needs you to take care of her for the rest of her life. But this person must not be me, and I don't know who it is. Brother Zhuo, you should go back to Beijing, or go to the world to find her. You will definitely find it. Don't come to me."

Guo Rong slowly understood that Zhuo Jinzhong was talking to Zhu Yixuan, and every sentence was told to her. He was even more shocked. He thought they were just ordinary master-servant relationships, but Zhuo Jinzhong regarded the princess as his lover whom he would protect for the rest of his life. Zhuo Jinzhong shouted loudly: "You are lying! You can deceive anyone in the world, but you can't deceive me. Do you remember that before the Qingming Festival when you were ten years old, the emperor took you south to Yingtian Mansion to worship Emperor Taizu. At that time, you looked innocent and innocent, wearing a red outfit, just like a flower blooming in early spring. I kept following you, looking at your petite back, and listening to the song you hummed gently

Zi, I feel so comfortable in my heart. Later, you were naughty and wanted to go to the forest to play, so I wanted me to accompany you. Of course, I will always be with you, and only I will let you be so willful. The mountains are very quiet, and only your laughter like a silver bell deeply imprinted into my heart. But at this moment, dozens of robbers suddenly appeared. Seeing that we were young, I wanted to kidnap us. You were very scared at that time and hugged me tightly. But I was very calm and knew very well that no one could hurt you, as long as I was still alive. Feel the breath you exhaled floating on my face, and the fragrance of orchids will be unforgettable to me for life. Do you still remember what I said?"

Zhu Yixuan thought something, as if she was thinking about the past, but she shook her head and said, "How can I remember what happened so many years ago?" Zhuo Jinzhong continued, "At that time, I said softly, Princess, don't be afraid, no one in this world can hurt you, because I will always protect you by your side. After that, I put one hand on your waist and the other hand on my sword, killing all those who disturbed our tranquility. After so many years, I still remember it fresh. That time was the happiest time when I killed someone in my life. Because you were in my arms." Zhu Yixuan said, "Brother Zhuo,

But I was just a teenager at that time, and how could I know about the love affairs of my children? However, I am really grateful to you for being so kind to me for so many years. But I really only treat you as my elder brother." Zhuo Jinzhong murmured: "But in my heart, that is our love affairs of my children. Later, looking at the corpses all over the mountains and fields, you were scared to death. But you said something that made me unable to forget in my life." Zhu Yixuan asked in surprise: "What do you say?" Zhuo Jinzhong said: "At that time, you threw yourself into my arms and cried, 'You must protect me like this for the rest of your life'."

Zhu Yixuan shook his head and said, "But I don't remember anything. I only vaguely remember this thing. I met robbers. Later, you killed all the robbers to protect me. As for what you said, I couldn't remember at all. Brother Zhuo, at that time, I was just a little girl and didn't understand anything. You misunderstood what I mean." Zhuo Jinzhong said, "Misunderstanding? That's right, it's natural for a slave to protect his master. But I am the one I love, not the master. So, I was always very happy until... his appearance." As he said, pointing at Guo Rong with a sword. Zhu Yixuan said, "Brother Zhuo, but no matter what, I have found someone to protect me for the rest of my life and I will not need your protection from now on. You should go, don't disturb the tranquility of Brother Rong and me again." As he said that, he threw himself into Guo Rong's arms.

Zhuo Jinzhong was furious and said viciously: "Can he really protect you?" Zhu Yixuan looked at Guo Rong and smiled proudly: "Brother Rong can protect you naturally, don't worry!" Zhuo Jinzhong shouted, jumped high, and stabbed in the air. Seeing this, Guo Rong pushed Zhu Yixuan away to prevent the two from hurting her by accident. Then, he also jumped high, pulled out the Shangyi sword in the air, and stabbed him. The sound of "Dangdang" sounded, and the two fought together.

In a blink of an eye, more than a hundred moves passed, and the two were still in a draw, and the fight was hard to resolve. Zhu Yixuan looked at the fierce fighting between the two in front of her, Zhuo Jinzhong attacked desperately, and Guo Rong was too much to guard, so she couldn't help but worry about Guo Rong.

Suddenly, a man shouted, but heard someone say, "Junior brother, senior sister come to help you!" But when he saw the moonlight, a man waved his long sword and stabbed Zhuo Jinzhong, it was Huang Fang. Guo Rong was overjoyed and said, "Senior sister, don't hurt him, just subdue him." Now in Guo Rong's heart, Zhuo Jinzhong is no longer a ruthless murderer, but a person with flesh and blood, affection and righteousness. He couldn't even bear to hurt him easily. Because no matter who is injured, Zhuo Yixuan will be sad. Seeing this, Huang Fang immediately attacked him. Under the attack of the two, Zhuo Jinzhong was still able to deal with it easily.

After more than thirty moves, Zhuo Jinzhong gradually became overwhelmed and at a disadvantage. After more than ten moves, Zhuo Jinzhong suddenly jumped out of the two of them and said loudly: "Guo Rong, if you have the ability, just wait, see how you protect the princess!" After that, he carried out his light skills and disappeared into the darkness.

Seeing this, Zhu Yixuan finally let go of the big stone in his heart and said, "Brother Rong, it's best that he left like this, I'm so worried about you." Guo Rong said lightly, "Don't worry, Zhuo Jinzhong can't hurt me." Zhu Yixuan said, "But I don't want you to hurt him. After all, he has protected me for so many years, and in my heart, he is my big brother." Guo Rong said "um" and the three of them walked back.

It turned out that Huang Fang suddenly wanted to talk to Guo Rong, so she went to the tent to find him. As a result, it was empty inside. She searched everywhere but there was no sign of him. Then, she asked the Jinyiwei who was watching the night before she was told that he and the princess were heading east. When she heard this, she felt an inexplicable sense of tension in her heart, and was worried that something would happen. So she rushed over. Unexpectedly, she met Guo Rong and Zhuo Jinzhong and fought tightly.

Guo Rong asked, "Senior sister, what do you want to say to me?" Huang Fang smiled and said, "Now there is nothing to say. I feel at ease when I see you and the princess are doing well." Guo Rong stopped asking, and didn't care. The three of them returned to the tent and rested.

The next day, Guangji Temple dispatched nearly a hundred monks from all over the temple to welcome the princess’s prayer team. The sound of gongs and drums, the sound of scriptures and bells resounded throughout Mount Wutai. Zhu Yixuan and Guo Rong came to Guangji Temple surrounded by the Jinyiwei. After chanting scriptures and Buddhas for a morning, at midnight, Guo Rong and Zhu Yixuan joined hands to bow down and silently recited their wishes.

The prayer ceremony arranged by Guangji Temple did not end until evening. Then, Zhu Yixuan and Guo Rong sent the robes given by the emperor to all the monks in the temple. Among them, Du Hang received a golden robes, and gold was embedded on the robes, shining. Du Hang was flattered and led the monks in the temple to thank the emperor for their kindness. In addition to the robes, there were other items, all given in the name of the emperor's imperial gift.

At night, the blessing team still returned to Jindeng Temple to rest. Everyone was very tired all day and went to bed early. The next day, Zhang Xing was also in front of him, Sun Pu and Qian were on both sides, Chen Chu and Tao Ran were pressing the formation and led the team down the mountain.

Seeing that the capital was approaching, it was very smooth all the way back. It was getting late, so Zhang Xing asked everyone to camp and rest for a night, and then set off after dawn to rush back to the capital.

At night, everything was silent. Zhu Yixuan finally couldn't stand the loneliness and quietly came to Guo Rong's tent. Guo Rong was exercising his skills cross-legged. Although he felt that his skills had basically recovered recently, he still had not relaxed and insisted on practicing his internal skills every day.

Zhu Yixuan said, "Brother Rong, can you talk with me, okay?" Guo Rong opened his eyes and smiled and said, "My sister Xuan, just say anything, I'll listen." Zhu Yixuan said in a angrily voice: "Brother Rong, I'll go to Beijing tomorrow. Next, the emperor's brother will choose a good time to hold a ceremony for us. I was so excited that I couldn't sleep even night, but you didn't feel anything. I didn't want me and didn't come to talk to me. It made me sad." Guo Rong smiled and said, "My sister Xuan, you

It’s not that we agreed when we left Beijing that we should not show up on the road. We are almost going to Beijing, and we can’t even bear the last night?” Zhu Yixuan said, “But we can’t ignore me at all. People know that you are right beside you, but I can’t meet you, and I don’t know how much you are worried about you. But you think it’s not the case. Do you have me in your heart?” Guo Rong said, “Okay, after we return to Beijing tomorrow, we can meet every day. Isn’t that okay?”

When Zhu Yixuan heard this, she suddenly thought of something and became inexplicably happy and said, "That's true. You all said that those three people were proficient in playing the piano and singing opera. After listening to "Feng Qiuhuang" that night, they could not forget it. After returning to Beijing, they asked them to perform for me, okay?" It turned out that she suddenly mentioned Cao Yifeng, 6 Wenwen and Zeng Guo. Guo Rong said, "This is not impossible, but they don't like people with bad tempers. Once someone with bad temper comes to watch, they will drive her away." Zhu Yixuan said strangely, "How do they know that I have bad temper?" Suddenly, she woke up: this was Guo Rong deliberately joking with her. She couldn't help but look at Guo Rong, and smiled and said, "Brother Rong, you will bully me."

Suddenly, a scream came, "Who?" Then a scream came. Guo Rong was shocked and immediately ran out of the camp with the Shangyi sword. He ran over and saw a Jinyiwei lying on the ground, without any blood. Guo Rong was shocked, Zhang Jianxiu and others had already arrived. Sun Pu leaned over to check the Jinyiwei lying on the ground, and then said, "No scars, no blood, it was caused by the extremely powerful palm power." Tang Su immediately said, "Is it because..." Zhang Jianxiu suddenly interrupted her and said, "Don't say anything, I know it." Zhang Jianxiu asked all Jinyiwei to check the camp, but there was no appearance. Then, he called a few Jinyiwei to deal with the bodies on the ground. At the same time, he arranged for more people to watch, and everyone continued to go back to the camp to rest.

Everyone knew in their hearts that this silent statement would make the murderer unable to find the target he was looking for. If it was in chaos, it would be exposed. So, everyone went back to the tent to rest. Guo Rong felt embarrassed when he thought that Zhu Yixuan could not do anything. Seeing his junior brother's expression, Huang Fang knew what he was thinking. So he said to the princess: "Princess, the assassin is in the dark, just in case, let me accompany you." Zhu Yixuan was worried, but he didn't expect Huang Fang to say this, of course she was very happy. She immediately took Huang Fang's hand and returned to the tent.

Guo Rong was lying down with Shang Yi sword for a while, and heard a scream again, and hurriedly turned over and got up and ran over to check it out. But he saw that Sun Pu had fought with someone, and that person was Xiang Linfeng. At this time, all the Jinyiwei had already left the camp, either holding torches or holding long swords to surround Xiang Linfeng. Guo Rong was secretly happy in his heart: "It's you, it's you, let's see how you run away this time." Guo Rong had guessed in his heart that the visitor was coming to inquire about the news of the Master of Xianhe Valley, and when he saw Xiang Linfeng, he could clearly see what he guessed. But he was not in a hurry to step forward and siege Xiang Linfeng, because Qian Zheng had already come forward to help and deal with him with Sun Pu. Everyone saw that they were only one person, gradually felt relieved and watched quietly.

Suddenly, Xiang Lin Feng jumped to the side and said proudly: "Guo Rong, why should I hand over the Lord of Xianhe Valley obediently?" Guo Rong asked in surprise: "Why should I hand over it obediently? You think I am a fool!" As soon as he finished speaking, everyone laughed and laughed at him.

Suddenly, a voice came from outside: "If you don't hand it over, you will die." Everyone knew in their hearts that the person who spoke was Tu Ada. Although he was very skilled in martial arts, everyone was prepared for it. Zhang Jianxiu said coldly: "Your Excellency, you dare to show up and speak?" Tu Ada smiled and said: "My master has never been hiding, he has always appeared here." Everyone looked at the periphery, but when Tu Ada was standing in the north, there were two archers standing beside him, and hundreds of archers behind him formed a circle, surrounding everyone in the center. The arrow was on the string, everyone was shocked when they saw this.

Xiang Linfeng took advantage of the fact that everyone was not paying attention to it and said proudly: "I have seen the power of these archers in Mudan Villa. Do you still want to try it?" Guo Rong and others all understood in their hearts that once those archers were shot, there were not many people who could avoid them when they were shot. Guo Rong asked, "What do you want?" Xiang Linfeng said, "Please hand over the Lord of Xianhe Valley." Guo Rong said, "Please hand over the Lord of Xianhe Valley is a criminal offensive in the court, how can you hand it over to you?" Xiang Linfeng sneered: "If you don't hand it over, you have to rob it!"

Zhang Jianxiu shouted loudly: "You dare! Your princess is here. If you hurt the princess, do you still have a chance to survive?" Xiang Lin Feng said coldly: "Kill all of you to silence, who knows that the princess was ours? Hahaha!" As soon as he finished speaking, Tu Ada shouted: "Shoot the arrow!" But when he heard the "hissing" sound broke through the air, the arrows fell like rain. Guo Rong hurried to Zhu Yixuan. He waved his long sword with Huang Fang and shot down the feather arrows that were shot down one after another. The screams rang out immediately. Although Zhang Jianxiu and others were safe, the general Jinyiwei's martial arts were mediocre, and how could he withstand the arrow formation? The screams were all shouted by the Jinyiwei. Everyone hurriedly found something to resist the arrow formation, but the archers were all well-trained. After only three times, half of the Jinyiwei had fallen down.

Suddenly, a voice loudly said, "Stop! The Lord of Xianhe Valley is here!" But when he saw someone escorting the Lord of Xianhe Valley, he walked out of the tent, it was Wei Xiaopeng. Tu Ada immediately called the archer to stop the archer and said proudly to Lin Feng, "If I had known this, why would you have to be there? Hahaha! It would be this short guy who knew the current affairs, so he escorted me here quickly." Wei Xiaopeng was afraid of the other party's martial arts skills and did not dare to escort them. He only walked more than ten steps and stopped. The Lord of Xianhe Valley was standing there

He was drowsy, and it seemed that the medicinal properties of the sweat drug had not completely passed. Tu Ada carefully looked at the Lord of Xianhe Valley, but because the distance was far away, he could not see clearly in the dark. In other words, the Lord of Xianhe Valley was like a bad old man at that time, which was completely beyond his expectations, so he could not recognize it. He said coldly to Lin Feng: "A little more, let's see clearly." Wei Xiaopeng rushed the Lord of Xianhe Valley to step forward for more than ten steps and asked: "Can't you still see clearly?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Master, where are you going? Where are you going to take Master?" The "Wow Wawa" sounded. It turned out that Guo Xinyi was taken away in a daze. She was shocked and struggled to follow her.
