Chapter 129: Assassination of the Messenger

The black shadow was still carefully hidden in every corner of the mansion, and there were soldiers everywhere, making it difficult for him to get out for a while; The wound was still bleeding, and he pulled the veil off his hand and bandaged the wound, when a voice came out, "My lord, there is blood here." ”

It turned out to be a mark left by himself, although he couldn't stay here for a long time, and he jumped with him, just when he bumped into a few soldiers "don't run" The black shadow threw out a few hidden weapons, and they all fell on the soldiers, and they couldn't tell where it was safe, so they found a secluded direction and went, but they didn't want to enter a residential courtyard, which was the last place for a fugitive;

But when he came in, he couldn't care so much, the soldier was behind him, first hiding and talking, so he looked around, entered a side room, there was no one in the house, went inside, faintly heard the sound of playing water behind the screen, he looked at it, and immediately took his head back again, inside was the woman who had just called Xiaoying, who was bathing;

At this time, there was a commotion outside the house, getting closer and closer, which could be heard by those who practiced martial arts, and for a moment of panic, he touched the screen and made an audible movement.

"Who?" From behind the screen came the woman's panicked voice; At the moment, he could only bet on this woman's thoughts, so he also walked out generously, but kept turning his head away.

The "you" woman shrank into the bathtub, covering her exposed skin, looked at the visitor with shame, and noticed the noise outside the house, and looked at the visitor in panic, his dress no longer had to reveal his identity, although she couldn't see his expression, but his gentlemanly behavior gave her a sense of trust;

Xiao Ying took advantage of the fact that he hadn't turned around, picked up the dress on the side, wrapped his naked body, and there was a knock on the door outside the door;

Looking at the house, there was no hiding place, only this bath bucket, Xiao Ying pointed to the bath bucket and said, "You hide here." ”

The black shadow turned around, only to find that Xiaoying had simply put on her clothes, but he was a little shocked by her help, and he didn't have time to say thank you, and there was another kicking sound outside the door, "Open the door, open the door"

Xiao Ying glanced at the man, then turned to open the door, and the man also jumped into the bathtub, took a deep breath, and buried his head in the bucket;

Xiao Ying opened the door and asked pretending to be unknown, "Is there anything wrong with your adult so late?" ”

"Why did it take so long to open the door?" A man at the head glanced around the room, and this person was also one of the two soldiers he had just met.

Xiao Ying said very calmly, "The slave is bathing." ”

The man kicked the door open, the space in the house is not large, and it is a place for people to take a bath, except for some small furnishings, there is nowhere to hide people, but the large bathtub in front of him caught his attention, glanced at Xiao Ying, who was still calm, and seemed unlikely to do anything to hide the assassin, just had the idea of evacuating, and accidentally saw that the color of the water in the bath bucket was a little red, and asked suspiciously, "What, the water in which the girl bathes, is still red?" ”

Xiao Ying glanced at the man in a panic, and instantly said embarrassedly, "The slave maid listened to the orders of the adult, and served the Zhou envoy after bathing, and I didn't want to be in the bathing room.

Seeing Xiao Ying's shy eyes, the man didn't think much about it, and when he mentioned the envoy of Zhou, he had to hurry up to catch the assassin, turned around and raised his hand to "withdraw", and then the couple left in a hurry.

Xiao Ying watched the people leave, tied the door, and turned back to the bath tub, and the people in the bathtub also came out, gasping for breath because they had been suffocated for too long.

"Are you going to stay in this tub?" Xiao Ying reminded a little awkwardly; The man let out an 'oh' and jumped out of the tub in embarrassment, this person was the secret guard who was ordered to assassinate.

"You" Xiaoying hesitated, not knowing what to ask.

"Thank you, girl, for saving me." The Dark Guard bowed his head and turned and walked towards the door.

"Hey," Xiaoying hurriedly stopped, "Now that the outside is tightly guarded, you will be found when you go out." ”

"I have my own way." The Dark Guard didn't look back, still walking towards the door;

"But," Xiao Ying looked at the arm that was still oozing blood from the dark guard, and said, "Your arm is still bleeding." ”

The dark guard glanced at his arm and said meaninglessly, "It's just a small injury." ”

Xiao Ying knew that the secret guards avoided some topics, they were all strangers, and she didn't ask much, but there were inexplicable factors in her heart, and she wanted to know more about him;

"Minor injuries also have to be dealt with, and there is no rush to leave at this time." Xiao Ying said, and helped the dark guard tear off the veil that had been soaked with blood at the wound, and gently bandaged the wound with his own handkerchief.

"Thank you." Watching Xiao Ying's every move, the dark guard felt a little strange in his heart, Xiao Ying smiled shyly, but time didn't allow them to think too much, the dark guard looked at her deeply, and turned to leave.

Xiao Ying looked at the figure sneaking into the night worriedly, why did she have a sense of loss, but she was just a stranger, and she had missed it before she even had time to know her, and sighed inexplicably in her heart.

Chapter 125 Even if the lamplighter was late at night, Shuang Muzi still didn't feel a little sleepy, just because Song Jingran was there, sitting in silence like this, they were not embarrassed, but they all enjoyed it, and a little starlight suddenly crossed in the night sky, which would make people mistakenly think that it was a meteor crossing;

Shuangmuzi secretly glanced at Song Jingran, she was familiar with such a scene, it was a signal that belonged to him.

Shuangmuzi said calmly and indifferently, "You go back." ”

"Go to bed early." Song Jingran left the words and got up to leave.

Shuangmuzi watched Song Jingran leave, sighed in frustration, and then went into the house to rest;

Song Jingran didn't plan to leave, because the code he received was a signal of success, so he knew that the secret guard had already succeeded, but he left in order to go to Gao Jin to confirm whether he had been here, so that he could also solve the mystery in his heart.

Although the dark guard successfully escaped from my imperial mansion, he also suffered a lot of external injuries, and went straight to the place where they had agreed in advance, which was the deserted place on the west side of the Lin Mansion, and when the dark guard arrived, he was faced with Song Jingran's isolated back.

The dark guard arched his hand and said, "Subordinates, see the young master." ”

"Done?" Song Jingran's voice was as cold as ice.

"Yes." The Dark Guard hesitated for a moment and said, "But"

Song Jingran felt that the dark guard's breath was wrong, and when he turned around, he saw the marks on his arm, he didn't think that he would be injured, and it was so serious, he couldn't help but be a little curious, what kind of person could find out about the secret guard's skills, and could hurt him, "Are you injured?" ”

"The subordinates are not talented." The Dark Guard gestured.

"Tomorrow's business, leave it to the shadow, you can take care of your injuries." The dark guard replied, and Song Jingran was about to leave, only to hear the dark guard say "young master" again

"Say" Song Jingran's voice was neither high nor low, but it was still cold.

The dark guard hesitated, he didn't know how to tell Song Jingran that Xiao Ying came to the rescue, but he wanted to tell him that after all, the rules in the dark workshop were to be honest about some actions.

"I'll let me know when I'm ready." Song Jingran left the words and quickly disappeared into the night;

Leaving the dark guard in a thoughtful daze; After Song Jingran left, he went directly to the Jin Palace, to put it bluntly, he sneaked in, and the house was also silent, only the 'Feng Garden' was always lit, and the people who came in and out were constantly spaced apart;

Song Jingran let out a scream from his throat, just a moment of effort, Gao Jin's figure appeared in sight, it was rare that at this time, he still had the heart to tease him, gently walked behind Gao Jin, knocked on his shoulder lightly, Gao Jin was startled, grabbed Song Jingran's hand casually, turned around, and the two had a small fight, both of which relieved the depression in their hearts.

"Alright, let's stop making trouble." Gao Jin let go of Song Jingran's hand and said, "Come so late, what's the matter?" ”

"Look at you in the house, you can still get used to it." Song Jingran said half-jokingly, in order to avoid Gao Jin's distraction, he decided not to ask him directly.

"I'm nothing, it's just a dark soul her" Gao Jin said with a solemn face, "She gave birth to a boy, but she" Gao Jin shook his head and let out a long sigh.

"How so?" Song Jingran looked at Gao Jin incredulously, so many things had happened in just one day.

"It's a long story!" Gao Jin said abruptly, suddenly remembering Shuangmuzi, he asked a little excitedly and worriedly, "By the way, how is Xuan'er?" ”

When it comes to Shuangmuzi, his spirit is obviously different, in Song Jingran's mind, Gao Jin must not have seen Shuangmuzi when he asked like this, so who would be the person who lit the lamp for Shuangmuzi, thinking of this, he suddenly became worried about her.

"Xuan'er, she's fine, but I have something to do now, and I have to leave immediately." Song Jingran left in a hurry as he spoke, walked a few steps, and then turned around and said, "The envoy of Xia Fengguo has settled the matter, and I will send someone to inform you of the specific matter." ”

As the words fell, he had already jumped and disappeared into the courtyard.

Gao Jin didn't have time to speak, so he could only withdraw his hand that was raised in mid-air, but fortunately, Song Jingran sent a reassuring pill over, and now, it depends on how things develop tomorrow.

Song Jingran's speed can almost be described as galloping, he is not only worried about the safety of Shuangmuzi, he is more curious about the lamplighter. Shuangmuzi was immersed in sleep, not noticing the white shadow in front of her.

At this time, Song Jingran had already arrived in the garden, and through the light on the faΓ§ade, he could see a figure flashing rapidly from the house, if he was not prepared, he would even doubt his own judgment, and even believe in the theory of ghosts and gods.

He didn't have time to think about it, he gently pushed the door open, and saw that Shuangmuzi was still sleeping peacefully, and he was relieved to solve the mystery, and he followed the direction of the figure and followed the past all the way.

Until the secluded and desolate backyard, there was still no trace of the figure, the silence everywhere was a little abnormal, a breeze blew, stirring a piece of green branches and weeds, adding a bit of weirdness to the already silent night sky, the breeze drifted through every pore of him, and he shivered without a fierce shiver.

Song Jingran glanced around, then turned to leave, and after only a few steps, there was another breeze behind him, but there was a white shadow floating in this breeze.
