Chapter 17 The So-called Protection

Situ He's pair of iron arms firmly tightened the person in his arms. The iconic phoenix eyes of the Situ family were full of anger at the moment, the sword eyebrows were furrowed deeper and deeper, his teeth were clenched, he was still panting uncontrollably, his chest heaving violently , stared at her condescendingly, and said viciously: "Jing Xiaobai, you are getting more and more promising!"

Bai Lijing lowered her head, of course she knew what Situ He was referring to, but she didn't seem to understand, she turned her head in Situ He's arms, looked at Mo Wen, and introduced: "He, it's good if you come back, I Let me introduce, this is my husband, Mo Wen. Husband, this is my cousin, Situ He."

Mo Wen smiled and nodded lightly, which was polite.

Situ He's pair of phoenix eyes swept Mo Wen back and forth a few times, with a gloomy look, he suddenly let go of Bai Lijing, pulled out the saber at his waist like lightning, and slashed at Mo Wen.

"Ah!" The palace maids Anxiang and Xiaoyue cried out in fright, and hurriedly fell to their knees.

"Hey! Don't!" Bailijing came to her senses, using two moving steps to block in front of Mo Wen, Situ He's sword suddenly retracted, but still cut off the long hair hanging down on Bailijing's left side In the middle of it, the bun that was tied up fell apart, and the broken black hair fluttered down, entangled like a mess.

Situ He asked with his sword pointed at Mo, and roared at Baili Jing, mercilessly: "Jing Xiaobai, get out of the way! Just because of him, he is worthy to be your husband?! I will kill him first! Then I will kill you!" Han Ye! I came back this time not to compete with you in martial arts! Did you hear that?!"

Mo Wen stood still, not even blinking where the knife wind passed by, but just lowered his eyes, his eyes fixed on the red figure in front of him.

Bai Lijing shook her head, her face full of determination: "Hey, if you kill him, I will become a widow. My reputation is already so bad now. If you make such a fuss, who will dare to want me in the future? Do you really want to marry me?" Make me unable to marry for the rest of my life?"

As she spoke, she laughed, with a serious expression, and her eyes were as bright as before, but the bright color did not reach the depths of her eyes.

"Jing Xiaobai, I..." Situ He just opened his mouth, and there was the sound of a neat formation behind him. Looking back, he saw a majestic man in a yellow robe surrounded by the Imperial Forest Army appearing in front of the gate of Jinhua Palace. You are so bold, you dare to trespass into the harem with a horse and a sword!"

Who in Daxing Kingdom doesn't know the name of General Situ?Who doesn't know the black iron and black armor of General Bei Da?The words of the Chief of the Forbidden Army reminded Situ He. He put his sword into its sheath quickly, knelt down on one knee, and bowed to Emperor Jingyuan: "My minister Situ He, see Your Majesty! Long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

Emperor Jing Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, very angry.

Emperor Jing Yuan, who was still an ordinary prince back then, was not born in the main palace, so he had no chance of winning in the battle for the throne. Thanks to the help of the empress' father and brother, the Grand Marshal Situ Jia, he was able to ascend to the Ninth Five-Emperor throne.

From then on, Empress Situ's family was boundless in glory, and she was granted a gold token with cloud patterns on the tiger's face. With this token, she can enter the palace to face the saint at any time.

However, after more than ten years, when the emperor's throne gradually stabilized, this tiger-faced gold medal became a thorn in Emperor Jing Yuan's heart, because it represented the great military exploits of the Situ family and the military power of the three armies in his hands!

Situ He knelt down for a long time before he heard Emperor Jing Yuan say in a deep voice: "Bold Situ He, who disregarded the imperial court's laws and trespassed into the forbidden area of ​​the harem, come here and arrest him and put him in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice for trial!"

"Yes!" Yang Feng, the commander of the forbidden army, said in a deep voice, with a wave of his iron arm, the Imperial Forest Army was about to rush forward, but stopped——

"Father!" Bai Lijing knelt beside Situ He with a "bang", and said anxiously: "Father, please forgive me, He didn't do it on purpose! He has listened to you since he was a child! He, hurry up! Royal father admits his mistake, hurry up!"

Putting both hands on his arms, Situ He raised his head and saw that the girl beside him had three thousand hairs tied into a bun. Although he accidentally cut off one side with his sword, it still couldn't conceal the established fact.

The spring season in the south of the Yangtze River is not as cold as that in the northwest frontier. The sun has risen from the east and shines on the crabapple flowers in the Jinhua Palace. The soldiers at the border all say that they miss the flowers and plants in their hometown and the warm spring. However, even if the sun shines on them now However, Situ He still felt a little cold.

The black iron armor was too thick, and he couldn't feel the warmth of her palm. He suddenly took her hand away, and took off the heavy helmet. The black hair was wet with sweat, and there was a thread sticking to his neck. Situ He said: "Your Majesty Sin, wait for His Majesty to deal with it."

Bai Lijing said to admit his mistakes, but Situ He said he was guilty. "Wrong" is a word that can only be used in children and teenagers. Everyone will be generous and tolerant to your elders and father and brother, but "crime" is much more serious. Well, he is already a minister, he is no longer the dandy boy in Shengjing City, and Jing Xiaobai... still doesn't understand.

"Take it down!" The commander of the forbidden army took a look at Emperor Jing Yuan's face and ordered.

"No, father..." Bai Lijing opened her arms to block her, but was picked up by Situ He from behind, her body was lifted off the ground, and then landed firmly on the ground, his rough palm gently squeezed On her cheeks, the phoenix eyes with a slightly raised tail smiled: "Jing Xiaobai, stop messing around, be good, and stay well!"

The smile was fleeting, he handed himself over to the imperial guards, straightened his back and strode out of the Jinhua Palace, coming like a whirlwind, and leaving cleanly and freely without any muddle.

Bai Lijing froze in place, and wanted to beg Emperor Jing Yuan, but found that her father's face was very ugly, staring at her sharply, her hands were clenched in her sleeves, and she watched Situ He being taken away and disappearing at the palace gate In front of him, his mount "Feisha" followed closely, neighing, and getting further and further away.

Emperor Jing Yuan said to the people around him: "Strengthen the guards in the harem, and if you encounter trespassers, you can kill them first and then play!"

"Yes!" The guards replied in unison.

Bailijing trembled unconsciously.

Emperor Jing Yuan passed Baili Jing, and his sharp eyes fell on Mo Wen who was kneeling not far away: "Jing'er, since you are married as a wife, you must keep a distance from other men, no matter how close you were before, It's always overstepping the rules. The son-in-law is not in good health, stop kneeling, get up."

The frightened court ladies Xiaoyue and Anxiang hurriedly helped Mo Wen up, and Mo Wen bowed in salute, without a trace of coldness all over his body, completely indifferent to the world.

Seeing that Baili Jing didn't answer, Emperor Jing Yuan didn't expect her to say anything decent, so he waved his sleeves and turned away in disappointment, and the guards retreated.

The Jinhua Palace changed from noisy to quiet. Bai Lijing saw the last imperial soldier's clothes disappearing in front of the palace gate, so she hurriedly lifted up her skirt and ran towards the back door of Jinhua Palace. He Xiaoyue shouted: "Go and tell Eunuch Fu to send the son-in-law back to Zuo Xiang's mansion! Serve carefully, do you understand?"
