Chapter 121: The Masked Guard
Just when Yan Zixi was secretly surprised in her heart, the black-clothed killer led by her also spoke again.
"You'll know when you go."
"What if this princess doesn't go?"
"Then you can only grieve Princess Xiao! Do it! ”
Saying that, the leader of the black-clothed killer gave an order to his subordinates, as if he was going to get in the car and forcibly drag Yan Zixi out and take him away.
"You are so daring! Now that you know the identity of this princess, you dare to be so rude! If the major general knows, none of you will want to live! ”
"Humph! The Major General is now supervising the repair of the embankment outside the West City, and he can't come to save you!" Princess Xiao, you should come with us obediently! The black-clothed killer at the head looked at Yan Zixi and snorted coldly in his mouth.
It seemed that he had already investigated before he acted, as if everything was under his control.
Is it really for yourself?
The black-clothed killer pulled out the long sword at his waist and pressed it against Yan Zixi's neck, threatening her to comply.
However, in the next moment, a cold light rose into the sky.
"Dangchang!"
The sword strikes intersected, and sparks were wiped out in front of Yan Zixi, which frightened Yan Zixi's face and hurriedly shrank his neck back, for fear that the sword blade would hurt him.
The black-clothed killer withdrew the sword in his hand, hurriedly dodged back a few steps, and looked at the masked man who suddenly appeared in front of Yan Zixi, his eyes were cold, and his mouth asked.
"Who are you?!"
Yan Zixi also looked at the masked man in front of him who suddenly came to the rescue with a puzzled face, and when he was about to ask, he noticed that the waist card hanging on his waist belonged to the Zhenguo General's Mansion, and he was immediately relieved.
Is it the guards sent by Jing Cong to protect me secretly?
The masked man glanced coldly at the masked man and snorted.
"If you don't want to die, get out of here!"
"Who do you think you want to tell us to go? Then it's up to you to see if you have the ability! ”
As soon as the words fell, the black-clothed killer beckoned his men to attack the masked man.
The masked man didn't talk any nonsense, and drew his sword again to meet him.
His sword moves were extremely fast, like a storm sweeping away leaves, and when he saw only a burst of sword light, those black-clothed killers all fell to the ground, unable to climb up again.
When the black-clothed killer saw this, he was horrified in his heart, and he didn't care about his subordinates, turned around and slipped out, and fled in a hurry without looking back, and disappeared without a trace in a blink of an eye......
Well, that's a good runaway!
Yan Zixi sighed secretly in her heart, and at this time, the masked man put away his sword, walked over, hugged his fist at her, saluted, and asked respectfully.
"The princess has frightened you!"
"It's okay, Jing Cong sent you to protect me, right?"
"Yes, Princess."
"Okay, I see, it's okay now, thank you."
"The princess is polite, and her subordinates are retired!"
The masked guard saluted again, and then left with a "whoosh".
It's really a gust of wind coming and going!
Yan Zixi muttered, then hurriedly ran to the side of the carriage and woke up Xiao Wuzi, who had passed out.
"Little Wuzi, wake up!"
Yan Zixi shook a few times and called a few times, but Xiao Wuzi still didn't wake up. As a last resort, Yan Zixi had no choice but to slap her face and slap it heavily on Xiao Wuzi's face!
"Smack!"
The slap slapped Xiao Wuzi firmly in the face, and it worked.
It didn't take long for Xiao Wuzi to wake up in a daze.
Xiao Wuzi touched his face that was a little painful and hot, and saw Yan Zixi staring at him with an angry face, so frightened that Xiao Wuzi quickly got up from the ground and yelled in his mouth.
"Master, go quickly! There is a killer, let Xiao Wuzi protect you! Even if you give up the life of Xiao Wuzi, you must be safe...... Full ......"
"Master, why did all these killers fall to the ground?"
Xiao Wuzi looked at those black-clothed killers lying on the ground, and couldn't help frowning and asking.
Yan Zixi didn't bother to explain to him, and scolded angrily: "Expect you to protect me? I've been killed a thousand times. Okay, don't ask more, drive out of here quickly, those officers and soldiers will come and won't be able to leave later. ”
"Yes, master!"
Xiao Wuzi answered, quickly helped Yan Zixi into the carriage, and then ran through the alley to the back door of the Zhenguo General's Mansion.
An hour later, the carriage finally arrived at the back door of the General's Mansion, Xiao Wuzi lifted the curtain and said to Yan Zixi, who was sitting inside, with a courteous face. fifth
"Master, the General's Mansion has arrived, I'll help you get out of the car!"
While speaking, Xiao Wuzi stretched out his hand and helped Yan Zixi slowly get out of the carriage.
After Yan Zixi got out of the car, she went straight to the house, and only then did she turn around and say to Xiao Wuzi before entering the door.
"Little Wuzi, go back. Don't make a noise about today's events. Yan Zixi thought about it, took out a little bit of broken silver from her pocket and threw it over.
When Xiao Wuzi saw Yinzi, he immediately thanked him and smiled.
Such a person is indeed faithful, but the benefits are not to be few.
For the sake of today's little five sons who have no merit and hard work, Yan Zixi is not so stingy, after all, the money is from the General's Mansion, and she is not short of money.
After sending the little five sons, Yan Zixi returned to the house.
……
Xiao Jingcong returned to the general's mansion, and went straight to the bedroom, and saw the maids Xiaomei and Xiaoyu outside the door from a distance, so he immediately walked over.
"Xiaomei, Xiaoyu, you two are not serving the princess in the house, why are you standing outside the door?"
"This ...... This ......" Xiaoyu didn't dare to answer, but Xiaomei was a little bolder and replied truthfully.
"Replying to the words of the young general, the princess...... Princess, she's not in the house......"
Xiao Jingcong immediately became nervous when she heard this, "What are you talking about, she is not in the house?" Where did she go? Can you have a guard with you? ”
"Princess...... She...... She ......"
In the face of Xiao Jingcong's questioning, Xiaomei also became nervous, and when she didn't know how to answer, she suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar shadow in the corner of her eye.
"The princess is back!" Xiaomei hurriedly pointed to the corridor with her finger, Xiao Jingcong turned her head to look, and sure enough, she saw Yan Zixi hurriedly walking towards this side.
Yan Zixi also saw Xiao Jingcong coming from a long distance, so she walked over quickly.
"Jingcong, are you back?" Before he could walk in front of him, Yan Zixi beckoned and greeted Xiao Jingcong with a smile.
Xiao Jingcong kept a straight face, revealing a trace of displeasure, and asked angrily, "Xi'er, where did you run away alone?" ”
"I ...... I'm going to the Four Princes' Mansion to find Xia Guiren......"
Yan Zixi saw that Xiao Jingcong was angry, and she didn't dare to hide it, so she had to tell him.
"Looking for Xia Guiren? What are you looking for Xia Guiren? ”
"Alas, isn't it a mother concubine! Jingcong, let's go into the house and talk. ”
Yan Zixi sighed, and then pulled Xiao Jingcong into the house, and then said carefully.
"Your mother, you have to take me to Jingwangfu tomorrow to participate in some poetry meeting, I don't know anything, I have to make preparations in advance. Originally, I wanted to ask you if you came, but who knew that you would go out without a sound, so I had to visit Xia Guiren and ask her about the matters to be paid attention to in the poetry club! ”
Yan Zixi said this with a hint of resentment, obviously blaming Xiao Jingcong for suddenly saying goodbye and leaving the general's mansion without even saying hello.
When Xiao Jingcong heard this, his face softened, he took Yan Zixi's hand, gently covered her palm, and said with some guilt and some worry.
"Xi'er, you also know that your husband has been busy with supervision recently, I hope you can understand, I am angry for my husband, but I am only worried about you, if you are hurt by something, then my husband is very self-blaming!"
"Hey, don't mention it! When I went, it went well, and when I came back, I met a group of black-clothed killers halfway through......"
"The Killer in Black?!" Xiao Jingcong frowned, immediately became nervous, and asked in surprise, "Have you been hurt?" ”
Yan Zixi shook her head, "Your guards secretly protected me, and those killers were all beaten away by him, you have to reward him well." ”
"I know this, Xi'er, are those black-clothed killers the same batch as yesterday?"
"I don't think it's ......" Yan Zixi recalled it carefully, and replied: "Those black-clothed killers today don't seem to want to take my life, but want to take me away...... Presumably, it was not instructed by a master. ”
Hearing Yan Zixi's speculation, Xiao Jingcong was also suspicious in her heart.
"Not a batch...... Just trying to catch you...... So who will send it? Xiao Jingcong muttered as if to Yan Zixi and to herself.
"Then I don't know...... I don't know what kind of sweetheart I am, why was I targeted by so many people all of a sudden? ”
Yan Zixi really couldn't figure out who she had offended, and everyone wanted to trouble her?
Xiao Jingcong saw a trace of worry on Yan Zixi's face, so she quickly spoke up and was relieved.
"Xi'er, don't worry, no matter who wants to harm you, I won't let them go easily! I will definitely find out about this matter, and the women who dare to touch this king must not let them go unpunished! ”
Yan Zixi's eyes were cold when she said this, with murderous aura in her eyes, as if she was really angry, and only when she looked at Yan Zixi would she reveal a trace of tenderness and sweetness.
"Jing Cong ......"
Seeing this, Yan Zixi suddenly fell into Xiao Jingcong's arms, and called softly in her mouth.
Xiao Jingcong gently hugged the person in his arms, feeling Yan Zixi's slightly trembling body, he knew that he must have been frightened and had not recovered yet.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jingcong fell into self-blame, and said with remorse.
"It's all my fault! I shouldn't have left you alone in the house and let you go out alone, almost hurt! ”
