Chapter 537: Assassination
"Daughter-in-law, what's wrong?"
Zhao Guanlan opened his mouth in a panic, sat down beside Lu Xiaoyao, helped her up, and approached him.
Lu Xiaoyao gasped for breath, pretending to be awakened by a nightmare, and eased up for a while before he slowly spoke, "Xianggong, I have a nightmare." ”
Lu Xiaoyao hugged Zhao Guanlan tightly, relying on Zhao Guanlan with everything he had, and without waiting for Zhao Guanlan to speak, Lu Xiaoyao continued to speak.
"Xianggong, where did you run without sleeping in the middle of the night? I didn't touch your body when I had a nightmare, and I was scared to death. ”
Lu Xiaoyao said this, nervously hugging Zhao Guanlan, looking like he was scared, Zhao Guanlan didn't doubt it at all, but just said with some doubts.
"Didn't we just come back from Wuli Pavilion? Why is it only the middle of the night? ”
Lu Xiaoyao: "........."
Hearing Zhao Guanlan's words, Lu Xiaoyao was even more sure, Zhao Guanlan had something to hide from him in his heart, and raised his head directly from Zhao Guanlan's arms, Lu Xiaoyao was surprised.
"Xianggong, what are you doing? I just wanted to ask you what happened? You've lost your soul when you come back from Wuli Pavilion, and now you can't even tell what time it is, are you hiding something from me? ”
The arms suddenly emptied, and then he heard Lu Xiaoyao's questioning words, Zhao Guanlan was stunned, and his mind flashed his life experience, the matter of the Protector General's Mansion, Zhao Guanlan instantly fell silent again.
Zhao Guanlan's expression, although Lu Xiaoyao couldn't see it clearly, but from the way he was silent, Lu Xiaoyao could also guess that this time Zhao Guanlan's heart was not small.
"Xianggong..."
"It's water, it's water..."
Just as Lu Xiaoyao was about to speak, he suddenly heard shouting voices outside, and when he heard that the water was gone, Zhao Guanlan and Lu Xiaoyao both reacted instantly.
"Let's go out and have a look." Lu Xiaoyao didn't care about thinking about Zhao Guanlan's question anymore, and hurriedly said to Zhao Guanlan.
Now that everyone in the Zhao family is here, and there are so many subordinates, if it really catches fire, the consequences will be unimaginable, so you must go out to see the situation outside.
Zhao Guanlan didn't care about thinking about other things, and when he heard Lu Xiaoyao's words, he quickly nodded and got up and strode out.
Lu Xiaoyao took off his clothes when he was sleeping, and after Zhao Guanlan went out, he also got up quickly, and chased him out after putting a bunch of clothes on his body indiscriminately.
It was the front yard that caught fire, and as soon as he stepped out of the room, Zhao Guanlan saw the fire coming out of the front yard, and hurriedly strode to the front yard.
The people in the house should have rushed to the front yard to catch fire, and there was no sound in the backyard at this time, Zhao Guanlan had just stepped into the corridor, and he sensitively felt a different breath, and his expression suddenly became cold.
As soon as he was on guard, he felt a cold aura close to his back, and Zhao Guanlan quickly turned around and kicked out.
"Ah......h
Screams rang out, followed by the sound of weapons coming out of the corridor.
Zhao Guanlan didn't expect someone to assassinate him, he simply came out of the room to fight the fire, and he didn't even have a weapon on his body, after kicking out a man in black, Zhao Guanlan directly met another man in black, and his hands fell on the arm of the man in black, and directly snatched a sword with cold light from his hand.
There were at least a dozen people in a group of black-clothed people, all of them were menacing, seeing that they all wanted to kill him, Zhao Guanlan's expression became more and more cold, and he fought fiercely with a group of black-clothed people.
Lu Xiaoyao hurriedly chased after changing her clothes, and as soon as she stepped out of the yard, she heard a violent fight in the corridor, from which she could distinguish Zhao Guanlan's voice, Lu Xiaoyao immediately became nervous.
"Xianggong."
Lu Xiaoyao entered the corridor and saw a group of black-clothed people surrounding Zhao Guanlan, and Lu Xiaoyao's nervous heart was about to jump out.
Zhao Guanlan was obviously injured and was struggling to resist the attack of the man in black, Lu Xiaoyao's voice diverted the attention of some of the man in black, which made Zhao Guanlan breathe a sigh of relief, but at the same time he became more nervous and began to resist violently.
A man in black appeared in the house, looking like he wanted Zhao Guanlan's life, Lu Xiaoyao was so frightened that his face turned white, and he didn't care about anything else, so he hurriedly shouted loudly at the top of his voice.
"Murder, come on, help!"
Although I can't guess who these men in black are? But at this moment, it is better to save your life first, Lu Xiaoyao shouted and ran towards the gate of the backyard.
Hearing Lu Xiaoyao's shouts one after another, the expressions of the man in black turned cold, and several people glanced at each other, and someone chased in the direction where Lu Xiaoyao ran away with a sword.
Although Lu Xiaoyao attracted the attention of some of the people in black and made Zhao Guanlan's side no longer so difficult, Zhao Guanlan's heart became even more nervous.
Lu Xiaoyao can only do medical skills and not martial arts, she is a woman who has no power to restrain the chicken, these black-clothed people make vicious and deadly moves one by one, and at first glance they want to kill him, these people caught up with their daughters-in-law.
Zhao Guanlan didn't dare to continue to think about it, and fought fiercely with the man in black, and gradually rushed out, wanting to break through the barrier of the man in black to save Lu Xiaoyao.
But the man in black seemed to see through Zhao Guanlan's actions, surrounded him to death, and made a move to commit evil, and Zhao Guanlan's body was cut in several places.
Blood spurted out from his shoulder, Zhao Guanlan's body staggered, and the sword in his hand was directly knocked down, and he soon lost his ability to resist.
The sword with cold light rested on his neck, Zhao Guanlan's eyes were cold, and he spit out a mouthful of blood in his mouth, and then spoke.
"Who sent you? Can I know who I have offended before I die? ”
Zhao Guanlan suffered several sword wounds on his body, his face turned pale, and his voice was also weak, but his eyes were cold and firm, and he did not look very scared because he was imprisoned.
Hearing Zhao Guanlan's inquiry, the man in black glanced at each other, and then let out a voice of shameful laughter, "Haha, you don't even know who you offended, you deserve to die." ”
"Naturally, if you block people's path, someone will want you to die."
Several voices sounded at the same time, Zhao Guanlan heard their words, his eyes showed a touch of contemplation, when he was just fighting, he was still guessing in his heart whether these people in black would be people sent by Liu Yi? The purpose is to avenge Liu Ruyan.
But Liu Ruyan's death has been concealed by everyone, Liu Yi shouldn't know, but apart from Liu Yi, Zhao Guanlan really can't think of it, who wants his life?
However, these people spoke up, but Zhao Guanlan's heart suddenly brightened, offended people and blocked people's way, in this capital, there are only those two people who want his life all the time.
He Fu, He Cheng!
