[R18] Dali Temple.Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1) – “Dali Temple. Qing (Shuangjie solves the case 1v1)” Chapter 72 Imperial Edict [English]
byAfter leaving Qujiang Pond, Su Moyi took the reins from the guard’s hands, turned over, and rode Juechen.
Ye Qing followed closely behind and said from a distance: “Don’t worry, sir, I have already sent the government officials to go first. It’s just…”
“Just what?!” Su Moyi asked without looking back.
“It’s just that Jinwu Guard Youyi Zhonglang led Xia Huan to surround Qingyaju, and wanted to take Lin Lushi away in the name of catching the rebels. I’m afraid they won’t be able to stabilize the situation.”
“What?!” Su Moyi was startled and tightened the reins suddenly.Horse hooves were raised, mud and snow splashed.
“But the emperor ordered it?” he asked.
“It’s not the emperor,” Ye Qing said: “If it is really the emperor who gave the order, they can reveal the imperial edict, and we will never dare to stop it.”
“Someone is tampering with the Forbidden Army?” Su Moyi couldn’t believe it.
Ye Qing thought: “It’s not considered tampering. The Jinwu Guard itself has the responsibility of patrolling the capital. It’s not impossible to hunt down thieves in the city.”
Su Moyi calmed down after hearing this.
Since the other party sent the assassins first and then the Jinwu Guards, it was obvious that they were determined to burn the boat.In this way, even if he rushes away, relying on the power of Dali Temple to confront the Jinwu Guards who are responsible for the security of the capital is tantamount to hitting an egg against a stone.
Therefore, the only plan for now is…
“Ye Qing!” Su Moyi took off the fish charm from her waist and threw it to Ye Qing. She said in a cold voice, “Take this into the palace and ask for an imperial edict from the emperor.”
“Holy, imperial edict?” Ye Qing was stunned and looked at him blankly.
Su Moyi’s eyes were cold, “Just say that there is an imperial prisoner involved in the case of Princess Anyang and Xiao Liangdi. I ask the emperor to issue an order to hand over the case to Dali Temple for investigation.”
“S-Sir!” Ye Qing was frightened by Su Moyi’s words.
Doesn’t this mean that Lin Wanqing’s identity as the one who deserves to be punished has been revealed?
However, Su Moyi didn’t bother to explain to him. She raised her whip and clamped her belly and said, “Tell the emperor that I will go to the palace to report the situation to him early tomorrow morning.”
After saying this, he left.
On the other side of Shengjing City, fortunately, the Dali Temple government officials arrived in time. The assassins had already escaped and died, and only a few people were still fighting.
Seeing that the situation in Qingyaju was under control, Lin Wanqing hugged Xiaobai, followed Liang Weiping and Lai Luo and planned to escape.However, he heard chaotic footsteps suddenly sounding around him, coming one after another, from far to near, like a heavy rain that was about to sweep across the world.
She raised her head and looked through the fog of the night, only to see sparks of fire surrounding them, like a fire dragon, stretching out its body in the night.
In the blink of an eye, everyone present, including the officials of Dali Temple, were surrounded.
Everyone was shocked and couldn’t help but stop.However, the Jinwu guards who arrived had no intention of confronting them. After surrounding them, they all drew their sabers and slashed at the assassin and Lin Wanqing!
Fortunately, Lai Luo reacted very quickly. The moment the two cold lights approached Lin Wanqing, he stepped in front of her.
After a harsh metal scrape, the saber in Jin Wuwei’s hand was broken into two pieces, and one on the left and one on the right was thrust back into the chests of the two men.
The fight was bloody and the scene immediately became chaotic.The light and shadow of swords passed before my eyes, and the clanging of swords filled my ears.
The Jinwu Guards in charge of patrol seemed to want to capture the assassin, but with the clanging of swords, they moved towards Lin Wanqing step by step.
Seeing that something was wrong, Lai Luo jumped in front of Lin Wanqing and blocked more and more spears around him.
“Run away!”
She turned around and shouted at her, but as soon as she finished, there was a muffled sound of the sword cutting into flesh.
Lin Wanqing was stunned.
She raised her head in shock and saw that Lai Luo had been stabbed through his left arm with a spear.Blood spurted out, soaking her sleeves in just a moment.
However, Lai Luo only frowned briefly, and then raised his sword.The sword fell from his hand, and the spear was cut off.She shouted loudly and pulled out the spearhead on her arm with her bare hands.
The siege did not stop.
The Jinwu Guards saw this opportunity, raised their swords towards Lin Wanqing, and surrounded him from all sides again!
“Keng——”
The coolers hit each other and produced long sparks.
There was a strong smell of burning in his nose, as if the air was on fire.
Things happened so fast that Lin Wanqing didn’t even have time to close her eyes.
The cold wind was biting and made people’s clothes rustle.Suddenly, a horse neighed overhead, like thunder!
In the fierce fire, she looked up and saw a huge black shadow.Its two front hooves were raised high, less than three inches away from the top of her head, and then it turned around and landed with a “clack”.
The soft mud on the ground was crushed and stained her cheeks.
Without waiting for Lin Wanqing’s reaction, she felt a light touch on her waist, and then fell into a familiar embrace – the fragrance of pine wood mixed with a touch of green water.
She hasn’t smelled him for a long time.
Lin Wanqing was startled. She looked up and saw a sharply curved jawline.Then he slowed down and lowered his head to look at her.
Their eyes met silently in the night firelight.
He’s eyes are still deep and cold, like ice that has accumulated for thousands of years.But when he looked at her, there was still a bit of softness in his eyes.
Lin Wanqing’s nose felt sore and she looked away in panic.
Su Moyi didn’t say anything. She was tightly held in his arms by his strong arms. He held the rein in one hand and the sword in the other. His sharp eyes with murderous intent slowly swept over the people present.
Everyone seemed to be shocked by the sudden “uninvited guest”, and the fighting stopped.
A moment later, another man rode a tall horse and walked slowly from behind the fire dragon. He looked like a hellish Shura in the mist.
he looked at Su Moyi quietly for a moment, smiled, turned over and dismounted.
Lin Wanqing recognized that this person was Xia Huan, the general of Jinwu Guard Youyi Zhonglang who was responsible for the defense patrol of Shengjing City.
The guard next to him held a torch and led him to stand in front of Su Moyi.
Lai Luo covered his left arm, which was dripping with blood, and took a step forward to protect Lin Wanqing.
Xia Huan was shocked and took two steps back.
He quickly turned his attention to Su Moyi, bowed to him with a half-smile, and said, “I have met Mr. Su.”
Su Moyi looked down expressionlessly, with a terrifying pressure in her silence.
Xia Huanwu stood up, looked at Su Moyi and asked, “What are you doing, Mr. Su?”
Su Moyi glanced at him coldly and asked, “I would like to ask General Xia what he wants to do?”
Xia Huan sneered and looked at Lin Wanqing’s sinister eyes. “Xia just received a secret report that the orphan of the Xiao family who has been dead for thirteen years has appeared in Shengjing City. Now he is naturally following orders.”
“By order?” Su Moyi asked coldly, “Whose order?”
Xia Huan was not in a hurry and said coldly: “It is the duty of the Jinwu Guards to maintain the security of the capital. Now that there are rebels in the city, Xia is eating the emperor’s salary, so he is naturally following the emperor’s orders.”
Su Moyi hugged Lin Wanqing tighter and remained unmoved. She only asked, “General Xia, does he know that major treason cases have always been within the scope of the Dali Temple’s responsibilities? Even if the general arrests someone, after reporting to the court, it is still the matter of the Dali Temple. In this case, the general will not worry about it this time.”
After saying this, he galloped his horse and whip, ready to leave.
However, as soon as he took a step, his way was blocked by several Jinwu guards holding spears.
“But who doesn’t know that this traitor was once a recorder of Dali Temple? Xia is afraid that Mr. Su will have a bad idea and will be infamous for pretending to be a public servant.”
Xia Huan’s voice came from behind. He snorted coldly and made his words clear.
Su Moyi’s heart trembled.
Sure enough, as he expected, the other party was prepared to assassinate but not to rob.Because as long as a person falls into their hands, he will definitely not survive tonight.
Then they can excuse everything on the grounds that the suspect resisted arrest and the sword has no eyesight.
Anyway, the Xiao family case has been settled, and the current situation in the previous dynasty is so delicate that the emperor has no intention of caring about a person who should have died thirteen years ago.
Therefore, even if he moves out of Dali Temple and his identity as the crown prince at this moment, the other party will not let him go easily.
Thinking of this, Su Moyi’s eyes darkened, and he said coldly on the high horse: “What if I just refuse to let him go?”
“Then I have to ask my Jinwu Guard sword master if he agrees.”
The atmosphere became tense again, and the cold wind on the winter night was like sharp knives scraping across the body, making people’s hearts tremble.
“Hold me tight,” amidst the chaos, Su Moyi leaned over and whispered in Lin Wanqing’s ear.
Lin Wanqing was stunned for a moment, but she did as she was told. While hugging his waist, she put her face against his chest.
“Dong dong, dong dong, dong dong…”
He could hear his powerful heartbeat in her ears, but hearing it at this moment, she felt like crying for no reason.
Seventeen years later, this man came through all obstacles and told her his heartbeat without reservation.
“Dali Temple—obey the order!” Su Moyi’s voice sounded like a cold wind.
Xia Huan gritted his teeth when he saw this, raised his hand and said to the Jinwu Guard behind him: “Jinwu Guard──”
The night is as quiet as a deep pool, and the air seems to condense into threads, which will suddenly break when the wind blows!
“The imperial edict arrives——”
There was a shout from a very far away place, accompanied by waves of horse hooves, as if coming from a dream, hazy and unreal.
Xia Huan frowned and looked into the distance Xun Sheng.
In the thick night fog, Ye Qing held a yellow scroll and galloped towards him.The horse’s hooves hit the ground heavily, like a slight earthquake.
When he got closer, Ye Qing reined up his horse and stopped suddenly, raised the imperial edict in his hand, and said to everyone present: “The Emperor has an edict——”
Everyone took off their weapons and knelt down.
“The case of the Xiao family’s orphans involves members of the royal family and is a serious case. Therefore, it is now handed over to the Dali Temple to be handled by the Ministry of Punishments. Others are not allowed to interfere…”
Listening to the imperial edict in Ye Qing’s hand, Xia Huan’s hand lost its strength.
If only Dali Temple intervenes, no matter how big the matter becomes, it will at best be due to job friction and each side has its own reasons.
With the strength in his hands, he could compete with Su Moyi.
But now that the imperial edict has been issued, if he continues to fight with Su Moyi, it will not only be a simple job conflict, but also a serious crime of disobeying the edict.
Although before this trip, Chen Yan repeatedly told him that he would kill Xiao’s daughter no matter what, and he must not fail.But now it seems that I am afraid that I have more than enough ambition but not enough power…
Everyone accepted the order and thanked him, but Xia Huan could not kneel for a long time, still holding the sword in his hand in front of Su Moyi’s path.
Su Moyi looked at him coldly, led Lin Wanqing to get on the horse, raised the whip in his hand and said: “Get out of the way!”
The Jinwu guards present were frightened, but they did not hear Xia Huan’s order and did not dare to move rashly. They only looked at him.
Xia Huan’s face was gloomy. After a long time, he let out a long sigh and finally raised his hand.
The dark alley that was originally blocked by swords and flames opened up into a wide road.
Su Moyi didn’t waste any time, and after briefly instructing Ye Qing to take away the corpse of the assassin at the scene, he took Lin Wanqing and his party back to the Prince’s Mansion.
She and Lai Luo were both injured to varying degrees. Fortunately, doctors and medicinal materials were already prepared at home.
Su Moyi carried Lin Wanqing to the bedroom. The courtyard was silent and the night was deep. The two of them walked in silence.
He was still holding his breath and refused to pay attention to Lin Wanqing. After making sure that her injuries were okay, he looked at her with a deep look.
Lin Wanqing also lowered his head and did not look at him.
Su Moyi suddenly felt depressed.
He is very busy. The identities of the assassin and Lai Luo have not yet been found out. How can he have time to argue with a woman about such boring things as who talks to whom first.
However, thinking this way, Mr. Su, who had shown his composure in the face of the sword just now, now walked away with a dark face.
——————
Mr. Su said: I am very busy!Who cares about this shit!
Mr. Su’s heart: What’s going on with this woman?!I saved her life without giving her my life, but I didn’t even say thank you?!
