Hearing this, Zhao Ji immediately reacted: he slapped down the mouse talisman held in Lin Long's hand, Lin Long was shocked and angry, and was about to speak, Zhao Ji pounced on the ground, Lin Long avoided suspicion, and hurriedly dodged to the side, this retreat made her see a person in a red robe at the door slowly walking in from outside the door, as he approached, she saw that his robe was inlaid with gold and silver, full of embroidered ornaments, this person's face is extremely beautiful, the outline is distinct, phoenix eyes and petal lips, the temperament is feminine and charming, and there is a strong sense of oppression.

Lin Long looked at him in a daze. In the fifteen years of her life so far, because she has come into contact with some people in the market, she has hardly seen any kind of people with full aura, at best, she has seen ruffians fighting or officers and soldiers coming to collect taxes, but that is only posturing. She felt that she had seen people with a sense of inviolability three times, the first time was Wang Liefeng she rescued at the bottom of the mountain, the second time was the look of Zhao Yan in the restaurant when he went crazy, and the third time was now - this beautiful man called "Tong Gonggong", when he walked towards here, his face was expressionless and even slightly smiling, but this made her feel so terrifying that her body couldn't move.

And Zhao Ji seemed to ignore this sense of oppression at all, maybe he was used to it. It's strange that Zhao Ji, who is the king of Duan, has never given her such a feeling, he is really very down-to-earth, just like an ordinary boy around him - the more handsome kind. But he is not simple - Lin Long thought to himself, under this pressure, it is not easy to make light-hearted movements. What is he doing with his clutching of the ground?

As soon as Zhao Ji saw Tong Guan coming, he immediately wanted to salute, but he had just fallen in this place, and it was not easy to get up. He said "Tong Gonggong" in his mouth, and wanted to get up, but it seemed that he was very reluctant because he fell, and when Tong Guan stood in front of him, he finally straightened his upper body, knelt on his knees, tilted his head and smiled at Tong Guan, and said: "Duan Wang Zhao Ji, see Tong Gonggong." ”

Lin Long was already so frightened that her whole body was cold, and she remembered that the person in front of her should be the "Tong Guan" she had heard about on weekdays. He was ruthless, and he was the right-hand man of the Queen Mother's side, and the Queen Mother's reputation was not so good, after all, it was a bit noisy, so she felt that a very terrible bad guy stood in front of her, so frightened that she hurriedly knelt down, and her back trembled up and down. Su Can saw this from a distance from the door, looking thoughtful. Beside him, outside the door, there were three guards who came over with Tong Guan, all of them were good martial arts people, Su Can looked at them and chatted with them with a smile: "I have to come out at night, it's hard work." ”

One of them said coldly: "Master Su, now is the time when the palace is heavily guarded, why do you want to run outside, this is a dereliction of duty." ”

Su Can shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "My task now is to protect His Royal Highness Duan Wang Zhouquan, where he wants to go is all up to his freedom, I just need to stay an inch." His smile was kind, and his tone was gentle, but he spoke unceremoniously, "If anyone wants to hurt His Royal Highness Duanwang, no matter who it is, I will not spare it." I won't allow such a thing to happen, after all, I'm Su Cansu's guard, and there don't seem to be many people who dare to fight me. ”

The guard gritted his teeth and said, "Have you ever heard of such a sentence?" I heard that many years ago, I came to the palace to try to murder the Flying Dragon, and no matter how powerful I was, I couldn't escape the crowd tactics. ”

Wang Chuli suddenly said, "That's not necessarily. ”

Only then did several guards notice her, and the moment they saw her, they were all amazed and shocked. It's just that she is much haggard now than usual, otherwise it would be difficult for her beauty not to be the first to be noticed.

Wang Chuli smiled at a few people and said: "Back then, the general Wang Bi, who relied on the strength of one person and used a bow and arrow to defeat the opponent's thousands of troops, was not affected by the number of people and the lack of people, but it was just that the people who came were all beasts, they were all lackeys, and they were stupid things that dogs fought against people. ”

The guard raised his eyebrows and smiled: "General Wang, I really didn't expect that there are still people who remember this person now." Also, he was the legend of the god of war in Bianjing City back then, and he was very powerful. It's just a pity that such a powerful character will eventually be persecuted to death, people are too strong, and they don't want to be obedient, if they just insist on going their own way, it's really a blink of an eye to die. ”

As soon as Wang Chuli heard this, he immediately activated the crossbow arrow angrily, only to hear a "boom", Su Can heard the movement, and quietly stretched out his hand and lightly buckled it on her sleeve, blocking her movements through his arm. Wang Chuli was even more angry, and a wave of anger came up, but he heard Su Can's voice sinking, as quiet as a deep lake, firm as ice, and he said coldly: "Who is the person who died in the blink of an eye, do you want to try?"

Wang Chuli felt a fever in her wrist. She looked down and saw the fire in Su Can's hand, and was slightly taken aback, and when she looked up again, several guards had been frightened by the flying sparks and retreated, and Su Can's eyes reflected the brilliant fire.

"It's just a few points of Mars that you're scared of this, are you at this level?" Su Can smiled, "If you really anger me, have you thought about the consequences?"

And Lin Long, who was beside Zhao Ji, didn't dare to raise his head at all. When she heard Tong Guan's voice, she said to Zhao Ji: "Why does His Royal Highness King Duan bother to make this great gift? What are you doing here? Wouldn't you be afraid in the middle of the night, in the barren mountains and mountains?"

Zhao Ji smiled and said: "Shouldn't I ask you this, Gonggong Tong, in the middle of the night, barren mountains and mountains, why did you come here?

As he spoke, Zhao Ji's knees moved slightly. Tong Guan's afterglow followed every movement of his body, and the whole movement was a smile with a tense look, while Zhao Ji was completely relaxed, but it seemed to have another purpose, although Tong Guan intended to let him get up, he had to kneel on the ground and not get up, as if he had identified a tree rooted in this place.

Tong Guan said with a smile: "His Royal Highness King Duan is really smart, he is worthy of being one of the Queen Mother's favorite little grandsons, and also one of the emperor's favorite princes." His Royal Highness Duanwang is the treasure of the Queen Mother, and he will leave the palace without saying a word, and the Queen Mother is also worried about you......"

As he spoke, he bent down and stretched out his hand to stroke Zhao Ji's hair. Zhao Ji broke out in a cold sweat and smiled at him reluctantly, observing the unfathomable, uncertain expression and slightly narrowed eyes in his thick and delicate facial features. One of the two is disguised as gloomy, and the other is pretended to be a bright smile, and the atmosphere is a little warm in the weird.

"Let me see, is His Royal Highness King Duan injured? Oops, my hair is soaked in snow. His Royal Highness Duan Wang, beware of colds. Oh no, what we should be worried about now is whether there will be people who want to murder His Royal Highness King Duan-"

With a smile, Tong Guan's arm was ruthless, and he picked Zhao Ji up from the ground. Zhao Ji couldn't dodge and couldn't resist, he was forced to be carried into the air by his neck from the kneeling position from the ground, his eyes were round, his breathing was extremely difficult, like a wounded deer, his eyes were timid to dodge, especially - he was looking down. He was looking at where he was kneeling.

But Tong Guan didn't want him to die. Tong Guan lifted him up in front of him, approached his face, stared at his clear round eyes with gloomy eyes, raised his slightly upturned chin, and said softly: "His Royal Highness Duanwang, don't try to lie to me, I know exactly what you kid does and thinks." Who will be idle for a few years, just as anyone will kneel in this filthy pool of blood and refuse to get up, unless it is to hide some secret, Your Highness Duanwang, am I right, you have something good hidden under your knees, let me see—"

Tong Guan had a cruel smile on his face that revealed the truth, and the whole set of rhetoric and actions was smooth and in one go, and he looked at the ground triumphantly-

A smile froze on Tong Guan's face.

“...... Huh?" he smiled awkwardly and whispered to himself, "anything...... Didn't you?"

There was only blood on the ground. Crystal blood, dried blood, sticky blood. Beneath the blood was the cold ground, and there was nothing else, and there was no such thing as he imagined, "King Duan hid something invisible under him, and because he could never be seen, he would lie on the ground and refuse to get up, so he had to see it." This made Tong Guan feel a little embarrassed, and at this moment he was still holding Zhao Ji's neck. He turned his head and saw Zhao Ji's face was pale, the whites of his eyes were rolling up, and he was about to suffocate until he fainted.

So Tong Guan put Zhao Ji down. Zhao Ji barely stood on the ground, panting for breath, he was really tired, and knelt down again, and said weakly: "Father-in-law Tong's gift is too valuable, I really ...... Really flattered. ”

Tong Guan said to Zhao Ji with a shocked face and a little unwillingness: "His Royal Highness Duanwang, I saw that there had just been a murder here, and I was worried that there was something unclean on the ground, so I looked away for a while. His Royal Highness King Duan is fine, you must pay attention to safety. What happened here?" he grew calmer the more he spoke, and by the time he said the last sentence he had composure, and his mind was already thinking about how to find a reason to get out of here.

Zhao Ji looked back at Lin Jingjing's corpse, shook his lips, looked up and said, "As you can see, 'Mr. Mu' Lin Jingzhen died. I don't know who killed him, but by the time I got here, he had already become like this. Grandpa Tong may want to ask, what am I doing here before this? That's right, I heard that Mr. Mu is the best doctor in Bianjing City, and maybe he can save the emperor's life, so I came over to discuss with him, but before he could negotiate, he was already preempted. ”

His voice was neither humble nor high-pitched, and there was a faint joy in his mourning, like a beagle catching its prey for the first time, waiting for praise and petting—see, I have found a way for myself, am I not great. It's a pity that this man is dead.

Tong Guan was stunned, staring at Zhao Ji for a long time, there was a fierce struggle in his heart, he looked at Zhao Ji's eyes, wanting to confirm something, but Zhao Ji was still innocent and tilted his head to look at him, tears welled up in his eyes, tears flowed down his thin face to the corner of his jaw, he choked and said: "It's a pity, I originally wanted to help, who knew it would become like this......"

He whimpered. Tong Guan didn't expect him to cry, he was a little at a loss, Lin Long's heart was beating wildly and he couldn't believe it, and Su Can at the door just glanced back at him leisurely, turned his head again, closed his eyes and leaned on the door to take a nap, ignoring the three people outside the door and gently turning their heads and laughing at Zhao Ji is a crying bag. Wang Chuli looked at him with a little disdain in his eyes.

Tong Guan paused and said, "It turns out that His Royal Highness King Duan is thinking about the emperor, but I misunderstood...... But Your Royal Highness Duanwang, you are too naïve, have you ever thought that even if you find Mr. Mu and Mr. Mu is not dead, and he agrees to enter the palace, how can you break through the overlapping defenses and escort him to the most heavily guarded emperor? What kind of order can you do this? Without the order of the Queen Mother, you can't do it. ”

Zhao Ji muttered lowly: "Is this so......"

He patted Zhao Ji on the shoulder and said, "His Royal Highness King Duan, don't be sad, people can't be resurrected after death, maybe there is another way." ”

"But Mr. Mu has a way. He has a way. Zhao Ji shook his head and couldn't cry, "He knows how to 'solve Gu', perhaps, this will ...... the emperor"

As soon as these words came out, Tong Guan hurriedly interrupted: "His Royal Highness King Duan!"

- Achieved its goal. Zhao Ji thought to himself, raised his head and said in a dumb voice: "Father-in-law Tong, I'm serious." Mr. Mu may really be able to do it. That's why I ...... Why so sad. ”

Tong Guan lowered his voice and said, "His Royal Highness Duanwang, are you telling the truth?" After Zhao Ji nodded, his emotions were also driven by Zhao Ji, gritting his teeth and regretting it, sighing, "That's really ...... It's me who came late. ”

Although the emperor's life or death is none of his business, he always has to ask for credit in front of the queen mother. Tracking King Duan may not be fruitful, but if she brings back someone who may be able to save the emperor, the Queen Mother will definitely be happy.

"Father-in-law Tong doesn't have to worry too much. Zhao Ji raised his head and said slowly, "Although Mr. Mu ...... is gone, but his daughter has the same ability to 'solve Gu'. She's right here, right next to me. It is true that she is not very old and inexperienced, but she is 'irreplaceable'...... If you really want to save the emperor through Mr. Mu's ability, this may be the last resort. ”

Tong Guan turned his head to look at the pale and thin girl. Lin Long slowly raised her head to look at Tong Guan, this was the first time she had looked directly into this person's eyes, his eyes were like deep black holes, pulling her into boundless fear. She opened her mouth slightly to speak, but she couldn't make a sound. Her lips were pale, as if her liver and gallbladder had been shattered, and even her lips trembled into broken flakes.

"She just faced Mr. Mu's death, and she hasn't recovered yet, so please forgive her father-in-law. Zhao Ji said calmly in tears, "Father-in-law Tong, if you think it's okay, let her give it a try, let her save the emperor and save my brother." Maybe really...... It's really okay, Gonggong Tong, please, I'm the king Zhao Ji, please. ”

After saying that, Zhao Ji leaned down in a pool of blood and kowtowed his head heavily. Blood splattered everywhere, the pain was abnormal, and Lin's stunned blood splattered into his eyes. He insisted on keeping his eyes open. He was sober.

If these emotions just now were all to mobilize the atmosphere, and they were all false, then at this moment, he was sincere, he sincerely hoped that the emperor, that is, his brother, or the sojourn of his soul itself, could be effectively saved. The night was long. The night was too long for him to bear.

Tong Guan said: "Are you Lin Jingzhen's daughter?"

Lin Long nodded. Her eyes dodged, like a young bird falling from a branch.

This kind of reaction makes Tong Guan feel real. So Tong Guan turned around and walked out, saying, "You come with me." I have carriages and horses to offer, so you can follow me to the palace. ”

Zhao Ji was surprised that Tong Guan directly decided to take her back. In fact, Tong Guan really didn't feel the need to ask more, the matter of medical skills was not in his charge, and what King Duan said was probably true, if something really happened, it would be very easy to solve it - although he was able to take her in, but without an order, ordinary people could not leave the palace.

When he walked out of the door, Su Can lowered his head and smiled: "Father-in-law Tong, go slowly." It was cold and snowy, and it was freezing in some places, and the carriage might slip when it ran. ”

Tong Guan said quietly: "Su Guards too, even if they have the ability to melt ice and snow, they must be careful of the surrounding killing undercurrents." ”

"That's nature. Su Can said quietly, "I pay attention to these all the time, anytime, anywhere." ”

When Lin Long hesitated to follow, Zhao Ji also got up, walked over, and whispered in her ear: "Don't expose the existence of the rat talisman when you go, and don't mention it." When you are in danger, no one will dare to touch you. Rest assured, don't be afraid. When the time comes, I will take care of you. ”

Lin Long said: "Okay." ”

The rat charm was hidden in the hem of her robe, snuggling against her skin. The blood-soaked rat charm was a little warm.

When Zhao Ji knelt underground just now, he didn't hide the rat talisman under him, but to transfer the talisman to her, which was hidden under Lin Long's body. Therefore, Lin Long was so frightened, but fortunately, Zhao Ji calculated accurately, and the rat talisman was safely hidden, at the moment when Tong Guan turned around, Zhao Ji got up and blocked between her and Tong Guan, as well as the three guards at the door to create a blind spot, and Lin Long quickly picked up the rat talisman and hid it, and finally there was no danger.

At the moment when Lin Long walked out of the house, Zhao Ji looked at Tong Guan's back, and said with a tense expression: "Father-in-law Tong, please." ”

Tong Guan stopped, turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile: "Since I am a person from His Royal Highness King Duan, I will naturally believe it completely." His Royal Highness King Duan can rest assured, as long as there is no accident, this little girl will be fine. ”
