Chapter 56: The Assassin Emerges

"Because, when I was a child, I was trapped in the Canglang Plain. ”

"Have you been? You mean you're locked up there too?"

"Hmm. ”

Su Jue, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke: "Did Xiao Qiyu do it too?"

"No, no, no, yes...... Former Taiwei Shepherd. ”

Former lieutenant, he said Mu Yande.

Yue Qianlong: "Isn't he your grandfather? Why do you do this?"

"Perhaps, I think I am an ominous person, Lord Muyan thinks that my existence will bring bad luck to the Muyan family. ”

"What? I think that Mu Yanxue will bring bad luck to the Mu Yan family! Is he old and blind? Doesn't leaving you in Canglang Yuan mean your life? He is actually your grandfather?"

"You were supposed to be a kid at the time, how did you get out of the wilderness?"

"I, I just came out of it by chance. ”

"No way. ”

"Well, it's been so long, I don't remember much. ”

"Since you don't remember, how did you write that manual to help us out?"

"I ......"

Seeing that Mu Yan was really embarrassed, Yue Qianlong hurriedly said: "Ah Jue, you don't want to force him here, if he doesn't say it, there must be difficulties." ”

"What the hell is the difficulty?"

"Ah Jue!"

"Who the hell are you? I was negligent before, and I didn't understand that the person who could stay by Xiao Qiyu's side was by no means a weak and useless teenager. ”

"Su Shaoxia, you misunderstood, I am really an ordinary person, as for why I was able to come out, it all depended on Your Majesty and Sister Xue, Your Majesty sent Yinqi guards to rescue, as a result, they rescued me, but none of the whole team came out. ”

So that's the case? Only then did Su Jue's vigilance relax a little.

"Why does Mu Yande say that you are an ominous person?"

"I don't know, my mother was born as a slave, maybe it's because I insulted the family of the shepherd family with my mother. ”

Hearing this, Yue Qianlong couldn't help but sigh, "What's wrong with the sin slave? Could it be that the sin slave deserves to be unable to turn over for the rest of his life? I don't think you should stay by Xiao Qiyu's side and let him be sent." ”

"Don't talk about that, just see that you two are safe. ”

At this time, there seemed to be a commotion in the crowd in front.

"What's going on over there? Why does everybody seem to be heading back?"

Su Jue didn't squeak, but his body had already moved to the front of Yue Qianlong and Mu Yanzhen, and said, "It seems that there was an accident." ”

"Oh no, that's the direction Your Majesty and my sister are going!"

As soon as they turned around, the lanterns that had been hanging over their heads fell one after another, and many of the pedestrians who were admiring the lanterns on the street were smashed to the ground. The oil from the lamp flowed out and stained the clothes of the passers-by, and the flames snorted against the fabric and burst into flames. Suddenly, the cries and cries for help in the East Market turned into one, and in order to extinguish the open flames on his body, the victim had to roll on the ground and cry non-stop.

"Everyone, come and help!"

"Save my brotherβ€”"

"Help, help!"

......

The air was filled with the smell of burnt meat, and everyone went up to help pull the clothes on those people's bodies, but who knew that the material had stuck to the skin, and each tear off the flesh and blood of those people, this terrifying scene made the passers-by flee.

A fire burst into the sky in an instant, and Mu Yan really thought that it was the direction that was close to the Cloud Calling Pavilion.

"There was a fire in front, Qianlong, you take Mu Yanzhen back to King Ning's Mansion first, and I will go to Zhaoyun Pavilion to find the two of them. ”

"No, Your Majesty and Sister are on the other side of the fire, I can't go!"

"Mu Yanzhen, you will only cause chaos when you come!"

Unable to care about anything else, Su Jue turned around and ran forward.

At present, the East Market has been in chaos, and the people who are fleeing for their lives are pushing each other and rushing towards the street. I heard that the lantern boat on the release pond caught fire and burned all the way to the river bank along the lantern bridge, which could not hurt pedestrians on the street, but for some reason, the lantern pole erected on the side of the street was also inexplicably broken several times, and hundreds of people were crushed when they fell.

It's really hateful, Xiao Qiyu is the emperor's name, and he can't shout now.

Everyone fled west one after another, but what Su Jue was going to was Chunming Gate, and in this sea of people against the current, he had to desperately shrink his body and force a way. This situation was something he didn't expect, he just wanted to come out and relax, but he didn't expect to meet Xiao Qiyu, a hot potato, and there was such a big mess in the release pool, if something happened to Xiao Qiyu, he would definitely be inseparable from Yue Qianlong, then it would be in vain for him to plan so much.

"Your Majesty......" Mu Yanzhen, who had been retreating with Yue Qianlong, suddenly stopped, turned around and rushed towards the crowd.

"Ah Zhen, Ah Zhen!" The form on the street was too chaotic, and in the blink of an eye, Mu Yanzhen disappeared.

"Sister, do you hear me? I'm Ah Zhen...... Sister, Xiao Gongzi, where are you?" the young man gasped for breath, and his voice became more and more hoarse, "Sister, Ah Xue!"

The situation on the street became more and more chaotic, and Mu Yanzhen was hit by a wooden cart full of food, and the noodle soup that was still hot in the pot splashed out, hitting him in the face and neck, and the dishes in the car fell to the ground.

Mu Yanzhen was hit and bent his knees, and his knees hit the wheel, and he fell backwards in pain, falling into the broken porcelain pieces all over the ground. The young man's blood stained his robe red, who knew that the owner of the car not only did not stop, but pushed the wooden cart without looking back to run for his life, just after relieving himself, Mu Yanzhen's left hand on the ground was run over by the wheel, and the piercing pain shook the young man's whole body numb, and he couldn't move at all.

"Your Majesty, you must not have an accident," he looked up, and in a trance saw a large light pole in front of him, "That's there! Mu Yanzhen, you get up quickly, you must arrive!"

It's really hateful, I shouldn't have left Mu Yanzhen there, and now even Mu Yanxue has been scattered by the flow of people.

"Mu Yanzhen, Ah Xue, where are you? Mu Yanzhen, get out of here!"

As soon as the words came out, Xiao Qiyu saw the big lamp pole in front of him, which was about to break apart, which was crumbling and about to break. There was no time to hide, he looked to the left anxiously, seven or eight steps away was the release pool, if he could jump into the pool, maybe there was a chance of life, he must think of jumping into the pool.

But just after running a few steps, Xiao Qiyu heard a 'click', and the blazing lamp pole fell down in response, and it was really smashing towards him, in the face of this terrifying scene, Xiao Qiyu instantly stopped breathing, his eyes were stunned, and his body seemed to freeze.

"Your Majesty!"

Hearing this call, Xiao Qiyu's whole body was surrounded by a person and rolled to the left release pool, and a huge impact sound sounded in his ears, until the moment he fell into the release pool, Xiao Qiyu saw the person's face clearly.

"Ah Zhen, why are you ......?"

The icy lake water gushed up, Xiao Qiyu had excellent water properties since he was a child, but Mu Zhen seemed to have no strength at all, his eyes were closed, and his body was sinking in the pool. Xiao Qiyu pulled him as hard as he could, shook the man's shoulders vigorously, and saw that Mu Yan had really regained some consciousness, so he took the man's hands and led him to swim to the water.

"Shepherd's truth, come up. ”

This year, it was cold, and the water in the release pond was so cold when it came to Lidong, Xiao Qiyu tightened his body during the swimming, and the two finally climbed to the shore, and he saw Mu Yanzhen lying on the ground and coughing.

It seemed that he choked on a lot of water, Xiao Qiyu patted the man's back and said, "How are you?"

"Ahem, ahem...... Ahem...... It's okay, Your Majesty, are you hurt?"

"It's just a little bruise, it's fine. ”

"Where's Sister Snow?"

"We are separated, but Ah Xue is so good and a person who leads the soldiers, she will definitely be fine. ”

He tried to pick up the boy, but Mu Yanzhen coughed more and more, and he couldn't stop at all.

At this moment, Xiao Qiyu realized that something was wrong and asked, "Ah Zhen, are you injured?"

Mu Yan really covered his chest with his hands, looking in unbearable pain, even if he wanted to answer, he couldn't stop coughing and couldn't spare a little space.

"Come, I'll help you, King Ning's Mansion is very close, let's go to him first. ”

Xiao Qiyu stretched out his hand and wanted to help the young man to his shoulder, but as soon as he touched Mu Yanzhen, he leaned forward and vomited several mouthfuls of blood in a row.

"Ah Zhen!" didn't have time to hesitate, he grabbed Mu Yanzhen's shoulders and hugged the person in his arms, saying, "You rest first, don't speak, don't worry, everything has me." ”

Mu Yan's true breath was dying, and he couldn't make a sound even if he spoke.

At this time, Xiao Qiyu suddenly heard a gust of arrows, and found that he had no time to dodge, and the arrows went deep into the shoulder blades of the young man, Xiao Qiyu couldn't bear to shout in pain, seeing that the arrow was unsuccessful, the other party immediately shot three more feathers.

"Your Majesty, be careful!" Out of instinct, Mu Yanzhen stood in front of Xiao Qiyu on one side.

In the crisis, I saw a cold light flash, and this sharp blade happened to cut off the three arrows.

"Su Jue?"

The young man who appeared in front of them stood with his sword in hand, and Yue Qianlong and the hundreds of guards who arrived immediately surrounded them, and at this time, there were no more cold arrows.

Su Jue turned his head, his face was calm that didn't match his age, "Your Majesty, how is Ah Zhen?"

When he looked down again, Mu Yanzhen had passed out.

Xiao Qiyu reluctantly broke half of the arrow on his shoulder and said, "Let's go back to the palace immediately." ”

Su Jue didn't say a word, and silently accepted the sword.

The air was still scattered with lamp paper that had not yet been burned, and the broken ashes fell like snow flakes, and from a distance, they were also in a group of lamplight, which seemed to be real and illusory.

Tonight is obviously a game, who is going to harm Xiao Qiyu? Could it be Mu Yansheng? Su Jue was puzzled, if it was the Mu Yan family who planned the fire in the East City, Mu Yan Sheng was not afraid of hurting his sister in a mess? Moreover, Mu Yanxue and Xiao Qiyu were going to get married soon, this marriage was something that the Mu Yan family had been looking forward to for a long time, and now that his wish had come true, he would never do such a stupid thing! But apart from Mu Yansheng, Su Jue could not find anyone else. It's a shame that not a single Assassin was caught.

When he returned to the palace, Xiao Qiyu did not make any publicity, and only called a few familiar medical officers to avoid the inner hall of the Wenzheng Palace, and Mu Yanxue had not yet been found, so I don't know if she was safe as a woman.
