Chapter 401: The Past (60)
"Father-in-law, why are you here?"
Decai covered his neck and knelt on the ground.
He looked up in embarrassment and looked at the group of men in black standing in front of him.
They stood there one by one, their eyes full of murder.
Although their faces were covered, the anger on their bodies was unmistakable.
"It's not a big deal....... it's just a fall here......."
He clutched his neck tightly.
In this group of people, the nose is the most bright.
Not even the slightest bit of blood could hide their noses.
"But, my father-in-law seems to be seriously injured?"
"Well, it hit the wall and scratched my neck. ”
"That father-in-law, you hit it really by coincidence........."
"Ah, I'm going to be on duty for the night if there's nothing to do, Your Majesty, I'm in there today. ”
Decai clutched his neck and stood up carefully.
The legs, which had just been weakened by the sword, were still trembling a little.
Not only was he injured, but his heart was still panicked.
His family, at the moment, is in the hands of that woman.
And her inexplicable request made him even more overwhelmed.
Recently, this sixth prince has appeared too often.
He has always been forgotten in the corner, but recently he has become the person who appears most in the emperor's mouth.
It's just that the emperor's attitude towards him is not to regain the non-existent fatherly love between the two, but to be on guard.
Beware of this prince who has no power in the first place.
"Father-in-law really doesn't need to find a doctor to take a look?"
The man in black clearly didn't believe his words.
Indeed, even he would not believe the excuse he had just heard.
Such an obvious lie.
Now it's up to the secret guard to sell his favor.
"No, it's important to serve the emperor, it's just a small injury.........."
"Then ....... let my father-in-law do what he wants. But I still have to remind my father-in-law to keep a good watch tonight. A female assassin had just entered the palace, and we were chasing her, and we accidentally let her run away........"
"Yes. Thank you brother for the reminder. ”
"No thanks. In the future, I will ask my father-in-law to say a few kind words for me in front of the emperor. ”
"That's no problem at all. ”
Decai stabilized his still trembling legs.
The smell of blood on the woman's body just now, he really didn't smell it wrong.
There is a good chance she was injured. However, he still escaped from the hands of the legendary evil Rakshasa organization, which shocked him.
This woman's martial arts must be very strong.
"Then father-in-law, we'll go. ”
The guards arched their hands at him, and suddenly they were gone.
He stood in the corner, watching them disappear, his mind already in chaos.
Often, at such times, they can't catch people.
Then, there is a high probability that he will need to be arrested and tortured.
After all, here, only he is the most suspicious.
Decai sighed.
It's already happened, and there's nothing he can do to stop it.
At that time, even if he was arrested and tortured, he should have a way to get through, and the connections in the palace had already been solved for him all the way at that time.
Now, it's the other things that are in trouble.........
………..
The night was endless, a crescent moon hung in the sky, and a few dark clouds crept closer, obscuring it.
The night watchman in the palace was walking around with a small lantern.
Every night, they would walk around the palace with lanterns in their hands.
Even the most corner places, they have to go over.
A few night watchmen were huddled together and were talking about what had just happened.
"Did you hear that? Even the Secret Guard was dispatched just now!"
"I heard it! I heard it! That man seemed to be very powerful, and the guards didn't catch him. ”
"I heard that Brother Zeng's brother just saw the assassin, but the assassin was so powerful that he actually carried a drug with him and knocked him unconscious.........."
"Don't say it! I just saw that black shadow on the roof of the Lotus Palace! That's really terrifying! It's as fast as a ghost! I suspect it, it's not a human being at all, it's .........."
"Oh, you talk about such unlucky things in the middle of the night, and we have to keep vigil!"
"Actually, there's no need to go over there....... such a corner, and I heard the little palace maid say, there, it's still haunted........"
"Zhaoyang Palace, I've heard about ....... too."
"Then let's just ........"
The night watchmen looked at each other.
It didn't take long for a consensus to be reached.
"Anyway, it's just a prince who is about to be deposed. Let's go around the vicinity of the Lotus Palace, that one, is being favored. ”
"Yes, yes, it's still brother, you're transparent. ”
………….
The footsteps of the night watchmen grew farther and farther away.
The lanterns in their hands also grew farther and farther away with their departure.
The vicinity of Zhaoyang Palace suddenly fell into darkness again.
A black figure suddenly fell.
She sat down slowly against the palace wall of Zhaoyang Palace.
The walls of the palace were soon stained with blood.
She was very badly injured.
It was pitch black all around, and there was no one else but her.
Suddenly, she was agitated and stood up.
The sword beside her sharpened a long mark on the wall as she got up.
She clutched her chest and walked slowly towards the path of Zhaoyang Palace.
It was also pitch black.
But the smell of the fragrance is refreshing.
She quickened her pace, eventually slumping heavily down the trail.
At this time, Mama happened to come out of the bedroom of the sixth prince.
When she heard a "bang", she immediately became alert.
The Sixth Prince had just fallen asleep, and it was impossible for any guards to come around now, so if any assassins came, how could the two of them be able to resist it?
She picked up the scythe used to remove weeds by the wall.
This is the sharpest weapon in Zhaoyang Palace.
One step, one step.
She walked very lightly and with great care.
I'm afraid that the person in front of me will get up.
But what made her happy was that the man was really lying there motionless, and he had no intention of getting up at all.
Is it dead?
Although Mama thought so, she still didn't dare to take it lightly.
She walked up to the man, a tall, slender man in black.
She just lay there, motionless.
Mama clenched the sickle in her hand.
"Mama....... haven't seen you for a few years, and you're still so vigilant........"
"You ..... you..... you ........"
The scythe in Mama's hand fell to the ground with a snap.
There was a crisp sound.
She sat down on the ground with a look of incredulity.
"Ahem. Don't be so surprised....... I'm just injured..... I won't be able to escape for a while......."
"You can'..... impossible........"
Mama shook her head again and again, muttering the same thing on her lips.
Impossible, indeed impossible.
But the reality is so clear in front of her.
It made her have to believe.
"Mama, I miss you so much...... Miss me?"
This voice.
It's so familiar.
It's not pretty.
With huskyness.
With pride.
With banter.
"........ Princess!"
