CHAPTER XXIX

During this time, Su Zhiyuan took care of Sikong Mubai every day, and the two of them couldn't help but talk more, and slowly, Su Zhiyuan also felt that Sikong Mubai was not the person he thought.

As Sikong Mubai's injuries improved, Su Zhiyuan gradually got used to the days he was by.

"Your Highness, the flying pigeon from the capital has passed the book." So Su Zhiyuan was playing chess with Sikong Mubai, and Ye Qing suddenly broke in, holding a small paper tube in his hand.

Sikong Mubai threw the chess pieces in his hand back into the box, opened the paper tube and glanced at it, his face frozen.

"Your Highness, what's the matter?"

"Pack your things and get ready to go back to Beijing." Sikong Mubai didn't tell what it was, but just glanced at Su Zhiyuan: "Do you want to go with us?" ”

"Okay." Su Zhiyuan calculated that the time had passed a lot, and he didn't know how Yun Guifei and Su Zhiya were in the capital, so he decided to go back with Sikong Mubai.

"Then pack up your things and set off in an hour." It seems that time is very tight, and Sikong Mubai almost can't wait for a moment.

After Su Zhiyuan said goodbye to Granny Wu, she directly took Xiaoli and set off with Sikong Mubai.

But as soon as the group left the city, Su Zhiyuan felt that the carriage had stopped.

"What's wrong, Ye Qing." Sikong Mubai asked in a deep voice.

"It's okay, Your Highness is at ease." Although Ye Qing said that there was nothing wrong, his voice was very solemn, and Su Zhiyuan suddenly pulled out the dagger on his waist and blocked it in front of Sikong Mubai.

Sikong Mubai was a little funny: "What are you doing, do you want to protect me?" ”

"Your injuries haven't healed, it's best not to move, I'll go down and take a look." Su Zhiyuan didn't think much about it, and directly pushed the car door to get out, when he saw a person suddenly pull the car door and wanted to break in.

Su Zhiyuan's eyes were quick, and he covered Sikong Mu Bai tightly, and then handed over his hand to the masked man in a small space.

Sikong Mubai is so big and is the first time he has been protected by a woman, and he doesn't know whether to cry or laugh for a while.

Su Zhiyuan was petite, ruthless, and holding a short weapon such as a dagger in his hand, and the long knife in the masked man's hand barely had any room to be used in the small space, and he was forced out of the carriage by Su Zhiyuan after a short time.

"Are you alright?" Sikong Mubai's heart was about to soften, and his eyes were full of tenderness and emotion when he looked at Su Zhiyuan.

"You sit down obediently, I'll go down and have a look." Su Zhiyuan was ready to go down and join the battle.

"You're here, leave it to Ye Qing outside." Sikong Mubai grabbed her and pulled her directly into his arms.

"What are you doing?" Su Zhiyuan's heart jumped suddenly, and Sikong Mubai looked at her with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were full of himself.

Su Zhiyuan was stunned, she only remembered that when her eyes were full of that person, she never remembered when others would look at her with such eyes.

I don't know how long it took, but the sound outside quieted down, and a faint smell of blood came in.

Su Zhiyuan woke up suddenly, pushed Sikong Mubai away, and jumped out of the carriage like a fledgle.

"Miss Su, are you alright?" Ye Qing was about to report the situation of the man in black to Sikong Mubai, when Su Zhiyuan suddenly jumped out, startling him a lot.

"It's okay......" After a pause, Su Zhiyuan's thoughts turned: "How is it, who did it?" ”

"That's all my subordinates picked up." Ye Qing handed the metal brand he picked up from the man in black to Su Zhiyuan to see.

Su Zhiyuan suddenly chuckled in his heart, isn't this the sign on the iron guard of Qingshui Villa?

Sikong Mubai also came out, and he was slightly stunned when he saw the brand in Su Zhiyuan's hand: "What's the matter?" ”

"It seems that this group of people came to assassinate on purpose, but according to the style of Qingshui Villa, they shouldn't do such a thing." Ye Qing analyzed.

"Recently, there are going to be major events in the rivers and lakes and the court, and we must return to Beijing as soon as possible." Sikong Mubai's face was solemn, and his tone was deep.

Su Zhiyuan had other plans, she shook her head and said: "Your current injury is almost healed, even if you return to Beijing now, there should be no problem, not to mention that Dr. An is still with you, I have other things, so I won't return to the capital for the time being." ”

"What are you going to do?" Sikong Mubai didn't expect her to go back to Beijing with her.

"The jade plaque of Qingshui Villa appeared in my grandfather's study for no reason, and now there are so many iron guards who are coming to assassinate me, I want to go to Qingshui Villa to investigate and see what Qingshui Villa wants to do." Su Zhiyuan felt that the cause of his grandfather's death was not an accident at all, and nine times out of ten it had something to do with this jade plate.

"And then, what do you want to do after the investigation?" Sikong Mubai knew the strength of Qingshui Villa very well, and he felt that Su Zhiyuan was tantamount to sending him to death.

"If they really had something to do with the deaths of my grandfather and my mother, I wouldn't let them go." Su Zhiyuan's eyes were full of resentment, if it weren't for them, he wouldn't have lost his mother early, and suffered from people's eyes and cold treatment, right?

"You don't know Qingshui Villa at all, not to mention the Jade Guard, which hasn't appeared for many years, is the Iron Guard, you can also see the strength, you can't even enter at all, even if you investigate something, it is impossible to get out of it." Sikong Mubai was very worried about her.

"It's my responsibility as a child, and it is necessary for me to find out the real cause of their death and find justice for them." Su Zhiyuan's stubborn appearance made Sikong Mubai very embarrassed.

He really wanted to accompany her, but now he was told by secret letter that there was another war on the frontier, and if he didn't go back, he was afraid that something big would happen to the entire Heavenly Domain.

"You must go?" Sikong Mubai really didn't know how to persuade this stubborn girl.

"I have to go, I know that something must have happened in Beijing and you need to go back to Beijing to deal with it immediately, so let's leave it at that, the rivers and lakes are far away, and there will be a period later." Su Zhiyuan probably guessed Sikong Mubai's thoughts, she didn't want Sikong Mubai to pay for herself, so she simply said something decisively.

Sikong Mubai was also struggling with what he should do, but he didn't expect Su Zhiyuan to say this, he could only watch Su Zhiyuan climb into his carriage, and before he could say anything, Su Zhiyuan had already turned around and left.

"Pass my order, and order the shadow to track and protect Su Zhiyuan at any time, and never let her have the slightest damage, and if necessary, you can reveal your identity." Sikong Mubai understood the task on his shoulders now, he couldn't chase Su Zhiyuan, so he could only turn around and order Ye Qing to let the shadow protect Su Zhiyuan well.

Good girl, you have to come back early.

"Yes, Your Highness, but what happened in the capital, you can't go after Miss Su?" Ye Qing faintly felt that this matter was bigger than any other thing.

"Xuanyue's people provoked trouble again, the guard general Su Linghao was seriously injured and his whereabouts are unknown, we have already lost two cities in a row." Sikong Mubai said as he returned to the carriage again.

Ye Qing was also taken aback, and ordered the carriage to speed up and rush back to the capital.

Su Zhiyuan left Sikong Mubai's protection, and she could only use all kinds of tricks to avoid the pursuit along the way, she couldn't figure out why this group of people wanted to chase and kill her. In addition, neither the coachman nor Xiao Li knew martial arts, so they seemed to have become a drag on Su Zhiyuan.

After dodging a wave of chasing and killing again, Su Zhiyuan felt that there was no way to go on like this, so he made a decision after thinking about it again.

"Xiaoli, from tomorrow, you and the coachman will go back to the capital first, it will be more convenient for me to be alone."

Hearing Su Zhiyuan say this, Xiao Li's tears fell big and big: "Miss doesn't want Xiao Li anymore?" ”

"Good girl, don't cry yet, you go back to Beijing and wait for me, and I'll come back when I find out the truth of the matter, those killers are all coming at me, if you leave me, there will be no danger, if I don't take you with me, I can get rid of this group of tails with more peace of mind." Su Zhiyuan looked at Xiaoli crying pear blossoms with rain, and she couldn't bear it, so she analyzed the key points of the matter with her.

"Okay, it's all because Xiaoli doesn't know kung fu and dragged the young lady down." Xiaoli didn't know when Su Zhiyuan learned kung fu, but she felt that she was really useless and couldn't protect Miss.

"There is nothing to do, you go back to Beijing as soon as possible, tell the eldest sister my news, let her not worry, and if there is anything, go to His Royal Highness King Qi, and then write to me." Su Zhiyuan told Xiao Li everything he could think of.

Xiao Li agreed one by one.

The next day, Xiaoli put on Su Zhiyuan's clothes and got into the carriage, and walked in the direction of the capital early in the morning, but Su Zhiyuan slowly packed himself after they walked for half an hour, changed into prepared men's clothes, and continued to walk in the direction of Qingshui Villa on horseback.

Along the way, various identities constantly changed, and Xiao Li's departure also attracted a large number of assassins, so along the way, she encountered a lot fewer assassins.

Soon, Su Zhiyuan arrived at the foot of Qingshui Ridge alone.

Looking at this mountain surrounded by water, Su Zhiyuan sighed: "It is indeed a good place, like a fairyland." ”

At this time, a woodcutter Dachai passed by, saw Su Zhiyuan standing here alone, and stopped him: "Little boy, don't go any further." ”

Su Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that she was calling herself, along the way, in order to get rid of the pursuit, she was also an old man for a while, a young man for a while, and she had played all kinds of identities, and today she was wearing men's clothes on purpose, no wonder the woodcutter called herself a little son.

"Hello, old man, I want to ask, is it in front of Qingshui Villa? I want to find someone. ”

Su Zhiyuan simply asked him about the situation.

Hearing that Su Zhiyuan was going to Qingshui Villa, the woodcutter's face changed: "It was indeed the boundary of Qingshui Villa before, but half a month ago, this villa was empty overnight. ”

"No one?" Su Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment: "Then where did they go?" ”

"In one night, all the people were killed, and not a single living person was left." The woodcutter's face became terrifying: "Someone has gone to see it before, and the corpses inside are all over the field, and it is terrible to see!" ”

How can this be? I haven't heard this news all the way, and with Han Tieyi's skills, plus the elusive twelve jade guards, as well as countless iron guards and golden guards, how can I be wiped out?
