Chapter 302: Guangyang City Chapter 30
"Princess, are you sure he'll leave?" Si Chen asked with some uncertainty. According to their experience, the probability of Ji Ye staying is almost 100%, and it is impossible to go back without completing the task.
Elegy gestured out his index finger and said, "Then let's bet 10,000 taels, if Ji Ye doesn't leave, I'll give you 10,000 taels!" ”
Si Chen and Si Du glanced at each other, a little embarrassed, and finally, Si Du shook his head and persuaded, "Princess, why are you doing this?" ”
I know that I am bound to lose, so why do I force myself like this?
But the elegy didn't listen, she still had the last glimmer of hope, and she said seriously: "Is it better than that? Ten thousand taels. ”
The two were extremely embarrassed, Si Du didn't want Elegy to be sad because of an assassin, and was thinking about how to persuade her, but Si Chen scratched his head and reluctantly said: "Since the princess has said so, then of course I have to gamble ......"
"Si Chen!" Si Du scolded, why is he still messing around at this time?
The princess doesn't know what's going on, doesn't he know yet?
If Ji Ye is really an assassin, betting that Ji Ye will leave is undoubtedly losing, and his gambling now is clearly pouring salt on the wound of the elegy.
"Didn't the princess make us gamble?" Si Chen opened his mouth to retort, "Didn't you keep telling me to listen to the princess?" Am I being obedient now? ”
You clearly don't listen when you should be obedient, and you mix blindly when you shouldn't!
Si Du glared at the other party, but unfortunately Si Chen looked at the elegy, and he asked seriously: "Princess, if we win, will we really give us 10,000 taels?" ”
"Yes!" Elegy said seriously, "Ten thousand taels." ”
"That's good. Just bet 10,000 taels. Si Chen scratched his head and said to himself: "The pie in the sky, if you don't catch it, you will be punished by heaven......"
Elegy listened to Si Chen's firm words, and his heart was mixed.
Ji Ye, don't let me down!
Although Elegy is well-intentioned, even she knows that this is a gamble that must be lost, and she knows it, but. She still hopes that Ji Ye can understand her intentions.
Probably. It's really stupid.
Ji Ye, who was still kneeling in the room, didn't know that they were talking about him in Elegy, and he still couldn't calm down in his heart.
How could he not hear the hints that the elegy gave him? Since the reason for him to stay is blocked, it means that he is being ordered to leave. If he stays. The possibility of identity exposure is 100%. When the time comes, they will definitely not leave a little more affection, right?
But it is precisely because of this that Ji Ye is even more entangled.
Should you take this opportunity to leave? If you keep staying. There is only one way to die, and the two people around the princess will not give him a chance, once he is found to have a small movement, his head will fall to the ground.
But if you go back, you don't complete the task, and the end is still miserable.
No matter which one you choose, you can't escape death? Ji Ye scratched his hair a little irritably, blaming the kid who made him a human skin mask, if it weren't for him, with his previous plan, it would be impossible to wear a goof!
As soon as he remembered that the other party just scraped a layer of skin off the dead man's body and gave it to him, causing him to be recognized, Ji Ye was furious.
Wait, if that's the case, it's not his fault that he can't complete the task, so won't he be able to go back justifiably?
Ji Ye suddenly realized this, he was slightly stunned at first, and then turned to ecstasy.
If you continue to stay here, you will definitely be killed, and if you go back, maybe there will be a chance of survival.
With such obvious two paths, only a fool would stay in this place again! Ji Ye stood up and made up his mind, let's leave here and talk about it, anyway, it doesn't make much sense to stay any longer.
Ji Ye stood up, because he had been kneeling for too long, his figure swayed slightly and turned around and walked out.
As he walked, he thought that he was really lucky, and if it weren't for the self-defeating nature of the human skin mask, he wouldn't have found such a good reason.
Ji Ye took advantage of the fact that no one went out and slipped out of the back door of the Xie Mansion, and the smile on his face couldn't be stopped.
He went to the horse market first.
"Boss, get me the fastest horse."
The boss walked over, saw that it was still a child, the smile on his face stiffened, thinking that the child from somewhere was making trouble, flicked his sleeves, and said: "The little hairy boy will flash aside to play, don't disturb me doing business!" ”
Ji Ye was a little annoyed when he saw the boss's bad attitude, but he was in a really good mood, and he didn't care, he directly showed the gold that must be yellow, orange and orange, and when the boss looked straight, he said, "Is it enough?" ”
"Enough, enough...... boss's eyes were about to fall to gold, he hurriedly greeted the man, and said, "Quick, bring a good horse to the guest officer." ”
"Hehe, guest officer, what do you think of this horse?" The boss asked with a smile on his face, pointing to a horse that was brown all over his body and only had four white hooves.
Ji Ye glanced at the horse and nodded, "It's okay." ”
As he spoke, he turned over and got on his horse, and in the blink of an eye, he was gone.
The boss didn't expect a child to be able to control a horse so quickly, and was secretly surprised, "This is really a child?" By the way, this kid is a little familiar......"
Ji Ye hurriedly left Guangyang City, for fear that the elegy would change his mind and call someone to chase and kill him.
When he got out of the city, Ji Ye rushed in the direction of the imperial city, the sky was getting darker, he didn't care, he continued to hurry, just when he rode his horse and galloped, he saw a person and a horse in front of him, he hurriedly pulled the reins to avoid crashing into it.
"Huh? What are you doing here? The other party seemed to be someone Ji Ye knew, Ji Ye saw the visitor, his face obviously showed a surprised expression, and his eyes wandered around the visitor.
The whole person was tightly wrapped, and in the hot summer, it looked very strange, and his face was half covered by a scarf, leaving only a pair of slightly sharp eyes.
"I'm here to see if you've completed your mission, you don't have the princess's head in your hands." The visitor tore off the white scarf around his neck, which looked out of place in summer, revealing his whole face, and stating the facts in a bland manner.
Sure enough, fortunately, Ji Ye was mentally prepared at the beginning, he exhaled and said, "I'm sorry, the task was not completed." ”
"Not done?" The comer seems to be still confirming.
Ji Ye stubbornly continued to nod, "Yes, the mission failed." ”
"Then why did you get back?" The voice of the person who came was stereotypical, without the slightest mood fluctuation, which sounded very uncomfortable, but Ji Ye seemed to be used to the other party's way of speaking and didn't care.
He waved the whip casually, then hung it around his waist, and tore off the "face" belonging to Zhang Yuanwai's son, revealing a face full of scars, one by one, like twisted insects, which was a little terrifying.
Maybe it was because of the problem with his face, Ji Ye's eyes were also much fiercer, and he said with some annoyance: "Hey, don't mention this matter, my plan was originally good, but who knew that there was a problem with the mask......"
"So, not only did you fail in your mission, but even your identity was revealed?" Hearing this, the person who came quickly summed it up, and his eyes narrowed, revealing a faint murderous aura.
Ji Ye panicked for a moment, the assassin who exposed his identity had only a dead end!
He hurriedly put all the blame on the person who made the mask, and said, "No, I am not to blame for this matter, it is all the problem of this mask." ”
Ji Ye saw that the person who came was silent, and hurriedly said, "It's all Jiang Yan's fault, the mask he gave me was taken off a child's body, but the identity of this child was found out again, I didn't have the relevant information about the child before, and I don't know the child's identity and background......"
"So your identity was revealed? If your identity has been revealed, why would they let you go? ”
According to common sense, since they knew that Ji Ye was an assassin who came to assassinate them, how could anyone still kindly release someone back? No matter how you think about it, you think there's a fraud in it, right?
Not only was it coming, but even Ji Ye was a little puzzled, he always felt that this time he could leave because the princess was open to her, but why did she do this?
However, it is still necessary to clarify the matter now, otherwise he will be charged with collusion and collusion, and he will die.
Ji Ye hurriedly explained, "Actually, they may not know my true identity, when those people tested me, I skillfully avoided their questions, maybe they really believed it." ”
Believe? Princess Zhen Ning can reach today's status by herself, will she be so stupid that she can't tell whether it is perfunctory or the truth? This person, sure enough, still has a ghost in his heart.
The visitor didn't speak, as if he was still listening quietly, but his hand moved silently to the sword on his waist, Ji Ye was still trying to think about how to resolve the crisis, and by the way, he put all the responsibility on Jiang Yan, who made the mask, and didn't pay attention to the changes.
He paused, and then said, "All in all, this mission failed because of this mask, and I still ...... it."
"Bang...... Knock knock knock ......" Ji Ye's voice stopped abruptly, and with it, a black head fell to the ground, rolling a few times, blood and dirt mixed together, blurred.
The horse that Ji Ye was riding was still unconscious, and he didn't know that his new master had suffered an accident, and he was still lazily wagging his tail, waiting for the master's next command, but it was destined to be impossible to wait for Ji Ye's next command.
"If the mission fails, no matter what the reason, there will be no forgiveness!" The person who came was still swinging the sword, and it was still hanging on his waist just now, but now he was already holding it in his hand, and in just a few seconds, a fresh life was lost on this sword.
Poor Ji Ye didn't even say a complete sentence, and his head was cut off.
However, the fact is just as they thought, the assassins who fail to complete the mission, and there are potential dangers that may be exposed, there is only a dead end to go back, and this point, no matter where they are, is an iron rule that cannot be shaken.
The visitor looked blankly at the head covered by the loose hair on the ground, turned the horse's head, and left. (To be continued......)
