Chapter 48: Assassination II

This sound made Wu Yan, who was already worried in her heart, scream even more heartbeat, her pace slowed down, helplessly ready to follow the little eunuch in front of her to turn back and answer, but found that the little eunuch's footsteps did not stop, still continued to move forward as usual, she admired his ease in her heart, and at the same time quickly followed his footsteps to continue to move forward.

The guard who called them just now saw that the two of them didn't react at all, and didn't continue to pester Wu Yan and them, and turned his head to talk to the person he called "boss", Wu Yan vaguely heard what he said, and his voice was sneering: "Boss, people must be from a certain palace, they don't bother to talk to us gatekeepers, and it doesn't make sense to stop them, in case you offend the master of the palace, then ......"

The guard hesitated, deliberately stopped the words and did not continue, obviously thinking of hastily making mistakes, but he also made a look of embarrassment.

Wu Yan heard a "hum" behind her, obviously this "boss" didn't care, and sure enough, she heard the "boss" say disapprerovingly: "As a guard, you must be able to guard your responsibilities." ”

As soon as he finished saying this, the guard who was going to make a hasty errand couldn't help but shout: "The two little fathers-in-law at the corner in front, please stay for a while, I want to ask the two ...... you if you have something."

However, this sound still failed to stop the footsteps of the little eunuch in front of him, there was a crossroads in front of him, he walked without scruples, but the guard behind him was even more sure that he was not suspicious, it was really strange logic. Wu Yan's footsteps didn't stop, as soon as he turned right, the little eunuch in front of him stood still in the corner of the wall, and did not continue to walk forward, and the voice of the guard behind him sounded again, listening to the voice, it seemed to follow,—— "Little father-in-law, you go slower." ”

Wu Yan paid attention to his back, and then he found that there were two people standing in front of the little eunuch who had stopped, and they were also in the same light blue clothes as himself, and their bodies were similar.

The two of them didn't notice Wu Yan's gaze, nor did they have any conversation or stop, these two people had already walked out of the corner along the road they had just come from, and the leader raised his voice as he walked: "My companion has been asking me what voice is calling, I said early in the morning, what else can there be besides the wild cat fight, what is there to pay attention to, the master of the palace is waiting for us to go back to restore our lives, go slowly, scolded and starved, but no one bears it for us." ”

Wu Yan seemed to understand, raised his eyes and looked at the little eunuch in front of him, just as the little eunuch turned his head to listen to the conversation outside the corner, collided with Wu Yan's eyes, smiled slightly, there was no extra expression, naturally there were no superfluous words, they continued to walk along the palace road, behind them, the voice of the eunuch who had just spoken came again, "They are all people in the palace, and they all know the rules." We are doing things for our masters, what we do, which master we are, unless we commit a crime, we have to sew up our mouths and can't say a word. A few adults are on duty for their hard work, and this is a reward from our master to several adults......"

The farther they went, the more unclear their words became. When I looked north again, the surroundings were silent, only when there were occasional birds flying through the air on the palace wall, a shadow mark was drawn on the vermilion palace wall. The sun came out, the ground was damp and not yet dry, and naturally they didn't know that behind them, someone was about to find them.

The palace gate guard, who was holding the money bag in his hand, thought about how to divide the money equally, and as soon as he turned around, he found that the chief had walked towards him from the door, he was startled, thinking that the chief wanted to take the whole money bag for himself, but the chief walked straight past him, and did not look at him, so frightened that the guard did not dare to think about the equal division anymore, and quickly handed over the money bag with both hands, and asked suspiciously: "Boss, where are you going?"

The "boss" stopped, hesitated for a while, looked like he was obviously looking for a reason, and finally found a good reason, and then said, "After changing the guard, naturally I have to leave." ”

But shouldn't you go outside the palace after changing guards, why do you still go to the palace? The guard was puzzled in his heart, and obviously wanted to say it, but his mouth moved, and he obviously held back, and finally secretly put the money bag in his sleeve, and quickly turned back.

On the city wall, the young man in ink, who had been watching all this, withdrew his gaze from the telescope in his hand, handed the telescope to the man in white behind him, shook his head and sighed: "Thousands of calculations, but the result is in the hands of his own people." knew that Feiying was on duty last night, and he deliberately didn't tell him about it, who would think that he wouldn't go back to rest after changing guards, but instead ran to a place where he shouldn't have been. ”

The man in white took the binoculars and looked into the distance, and said with a smile: "There are many people in the palace, and he is an unfamiliar face, so he will not do anything recklessly." ”

"No, I mean if he meets Wu Yan. ”

The two glanced at each other, and Duan Shaobai smiled indifferently, "Childe still remembers what he said that day, looking forward to how Feiying would react, and now, the show is coming, why is Childe nervous." ”

In exchange for Xia Zihe's angry glare, he snorted coldly, and saw that a group of palace people in front of the palace not far from his feet were coming from afar, passing through the palace gate, passing by a line of patrol guards, thinking about it, and said, "Today's royal front is on duty, let him send a few people to take a look, if Feiying is still nonsense, if something bad happens, he will be knocked unconscious and thrown into my palace." ”

He turned around to get off the high wall, and Duan Shaobai's voice sounded behind him, with a somewhat expectant tone: "Feiying, that kid, has always only listened to Childe's words, if he really wants to do something, he may not be able to stop it, and who dares to stun him, Childe is not worried?"

"I'm worried about what he does, and if he can't learn to be patient after so long, then blame you, the teacher, for not teaching him well, and you are the one who should be worried. The young man in ink turned his head, his face seemed to be smiling, and suddenly the corners of his lips were raised, and his smile flew, like the clouds slowly dissipating in the sky, and the brilliant warm sun behind the clouds.

The sun finally showed its face.

******

The tower was in front of him, and Wu Yan handed over the eunuch's clothes to the eunuch, said goodbye to each other, and went back to the tower to raise his spirits.

As soon as he walked to the gate of the Suta Courtyard, there was a sound of wings flapping in mid-air, Wu Yan didn't have to think about it, he didn't need to look up, he just listened to the sound of wings and knew what it was.

Eagle Kite Xiaobai saw Wu Yan and flew a few laps above Wu Yan's head, only to find that Wu Yan didn't raise his head, and fell straight in mid-air and landed on Wu Yan's shoulder.

"Xiaobai, why didn't you change your voice when you didn't see you one night?" Wu Yan turned his head to look, only to find that it was Xiaobai who had a mouse in his mouth, seeing that the mouse could still struggle to make a sound, it seemed that Xiaobai had already eaten enough and was preparing to have an after-dinner entertainment.

"You. Wu Yan shook his head and smiled bitterly, as a result, Xiaobai's body stiffened, his red eyes rolled, and he looked back at the courtyard gate, looking vigilant, Wu Yan looked at it, and saw a man stumbling over, looking at his clothes, it was obviously a guard.
