Volume 1 Chapter 539 Messengers
The situation was smooth on Fu Moyu's side, but not on Nie Linyu's side.
Inside the Three Kings' Palace.
The sun shone slightly, and the flowers also stretched out, and a floral fragrance filled the entire Three Kings Mansion.
Nie Linyu stayed alone in the Three Kings' Mansion, and after flipping through a few books, he felt a little bored. When I was drowsy, I suddenly smelled a fragrance in my nose.
"Is it the scent of flowers?" Nie Linyu looked outside, with a little joy in his eyes, as if he had discovered a new treasure, "It seems that I have found another way to pass the time." As soon as the words fell, she pinched the hem of her skirt and ran out.
Following the fragrance of flowers, Nie Linyu found the flowers. Gently plucking a small flower and placing it between her nose, she sighed comfortably, and the boredom of the past few days faded.
Indulging in the fragrance of flowers, she suddenly noticed that there seemed to be some movement around her, and immediately raised her vigilance, "Who?" In order not to increase Fu Moyu's burden, she could only guarantee her safety alone.
As soon as the words fell, in a more hidden place behind Nie Linyu, a masked person slowly walked out.
"Who are you?" I don't know if the person who came was good or evil, Nie Linyu secretly raised his breath and made a defensive posture. Although she can only do a little martial arts, she should be able to cope with it for a while.
Seeing that Nie Linyu was so vigilant, the masked man bowed his head slightly, arched his hand, and there was no hostility in his hoarse voice, "Presumably you are the princess, the princess doesn't have to be so vigilant." I am only a subordinate of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and I have no ill will. ”
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Is it Qingjue? Nie Linyu tilted her head, thinking about it carefully, and it took a long time to come to a conclusion that she didn't seem to have much in touch with him.
"What's the matter?" Putting down his hands, Nie Linyu asked.
The subordinate lowered his head and replied respectfully: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince hopes to meet you." ”
Hearing this, Nie Linyu's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking to himself. She didn't want to have too much entanglement with here, not to mention, in her impression, Qing Jue was a villain with bad intentions. Thinking of this, Nie Linyu said casually: "I'm afraid it won't be as the prince wishes, this princess has been sick recently, please go back." ”
"The prince is sincere, I hope the princess can agree." The man continued to persuade without giving up.
It seems to be very resolute.
When the words fell, Nie Linyu had some disgust in his eyes, thinking of what he had seen before, the prince was not a benign person, so it seemed that he was planning to take advantage of Qinglan's absence to poach her, which was really hateful!
Thinking of this, she then turned and walked away, ignoring the people behind her.
Seeing this, a trace of annoyance flashed in his eyes, and he arched his hand, "Since the princess is sick, then I will retire first." Then he stepped back.
Sensing that the person behind him was leaving, Nie Linyu stopped his pace and looked back at the direction in which the person left, with a little thought in his eyes, but he couldn't think of what Qing Jue might be looking for her for. So, she shook her head in annoyance, no longer thinking about those troubles.
Standing among the flowers, Nie Linyu closed his eyes and enjoyed the pleasure of indulging in the fragrance of flowers. It's just that this comfort didn't last long, and it ushered in a cool breeze. When she opened her eyes, her face was a little sleepy, and after covering her mouth and yawning a few times, she went home.
Back in the room, a strange feeling surged in his heart, Nie Linyu's eyes scanned the room, slightly confused, "Am I too sensitive?" "The fire is out
Rubbing his brows, before he could sit down and rest, he heard a muffled noise outside the room. Frowning, Nie Linyu cautiously opened the door, and saw a small dagger stuck in the door, stretched out his hand and pulled the dagger off, and looked up to see several people standing on the roof in front of him.
The men saluted her, and then jumped off. Before Nie Linyu could speak, several people completely disappeared from her sight.
"Tsk, there's an envelope on the dagger." Slightly hooking the corners of his mouth, Nie Linyu pulled out the envelope, and then. Entered the door. After lighting a candle, the envelope is unfurled. When I counted them, I found that there were three letters.
It seems that the person who wrote the letter must have been in a hurry. Thinking of this, Nie Linyu hurriedly opened the envelope, but the three letters said that they all invited her to meet with Qing Jue.
"This Qingjue really refuses to give up." When the words fell, Nie Linyu looked displeased, crumpled the letter into a ball, and threw it aside. Before he could think about it, he heard a burst of exclamations from outside the room.
"Catch the assassin!" The guards held their knives and roared loudly.
A fight ensued. It lasted for about half a pillar of incense before the sound of the fight slowly quieted down.
Nie Linyu opened the door at this time, and looked at the guards outside the door coldly, with obvious displeasure on his face.
Seeing this, the guard took the knife and pleaded guilty, "Please forgive the princess, it is really the laxity of his subordinates, which allowed the assassin to break in and disturb the princess's purity." ”
Nie Linyu had no intention of thinking about it, but when he turned around, he saw that the assassin who had fallen to the ground was somewhat familiar. When I looked closely, I realized that this person was the person who had just sent the letter! Alarm bells rang in her mind, and intuitively, she felt that this matter was not simple.
The man on the ground gasped a few times, stretched out his hand and pointed at Nie Linyu with great difficulty, and his mouth opened and closed. It took a long time for Nie Linyu to read the word "meet" from the shape of his mouth.
Seeing that the people on the ground still had a trace of breath, the guard's eyes were a little cold, and he beckoned people to take them down, leaving a bright blood.
Covering his nose, the smell of blood in the air made Nie Linyu's face a little ugly.
Seeing that Nie Linyu's face was constantly changing, the guard tentatively spoke: "Does the princess still have important things?" ”
"Since you are an assassin, you must increase your guard in the future." Shaking his head, Nie Linyu hurriedly turned around, closed the door with both hands, and his mind was racing fast. Why were the people of the Three Kings' Mansion so anxious and wanted to kill the messenger, could it be that there was a secret secret that she didn't know?
Thinking of this, Nie Linyu hooked the corners of his mouth and smiled coldly. It seems that the people around him are Qinglan's secretly buried eyeliner, which seems to be protecting her, but in fact, it is also to monitor her well.
"Surveillance?" Nie Lin slowly spit out these two words in his mouth, his face was a little confused, "Qinglan and we are the same faction, why do you want to spy on me?" ”
In the middle of a murmur, the envelopes flashed in her mind, and she hurriedly got up to look for them. Crumpling the crumpled paper ball, Nie Linyu felt a burst of happiness in his heart. Fortunately, I didn't shred the letter in a fit of rage.
It was written on the letterhead that there was a relatively remote place in the Three Kings' Mansion, where many ordinary people were imprisoned. As for why he was locked up, it was nothing more than accidentally disobedience and provoked Qinglan, so that he was arrested by Qinglan and tortured in every way.
If it had been before, Nie Linyu would never have believed that Qing Lan was such a vicious person as written on the letterhead, but the behavior of the guards in the mansion just now was really a little weird.
"Looks like I'm getting caught up in this intrigue." Sighing softly, her eyebrows full of exhaustion.
