Ning Qingqing was reluctant, pestering Mu Shengbai to eat together, and complaining that no one had solved his doubts in his absence, until Mu Shengbai vowed to solve the matter as soon as possible and came back to accompany them, and then he was let go.

Back to the familiar room, Mu Shengbai slept very peacefully, and the next day he got up and cleaned up and went out at dawn, Su Ming also happened to bring someone over, Mu Shengbai turned over and took them to Mingzhou City.

He didn't know that he had just walked on the front foot, and something big had happened behind him.

Just after nightfall, Du Weizhen had dinner, thinking about Mu Shengbai's side, he was a little upset for a while, sitting under the pavilion in front of the hall, as if he was distracted, Sixi stood quietly not far away and waited.

A dazzling white flash flashed through the corner of Du Weizhen's eyes, and he was horrified in his heart, and immediately jumped away from the spot, shouting at the same time: "Someone! There are assassins! ”

The place where he was sitting was pierced by a sword, but fortunately, he has experienced more and more about this kind of assassination since he was a child, and he still has some experience, otherwise he will definitely die if he hides slowly.

Sixi immediately came over to protect Du Weizhen, pulling his throat, and his shrill voice spread throughout the entire East Palace, "Someone! There are assassins! Escort! Escort! ”

The quiet East Palace suddenly became noisy, the lights turned on one after another, and the noise with neat footsteps was getting closer and closer, and it should be the guards outside who rushed over.

Behind the thick and elegant pillars of the adult in the pavilion, a masked black man appeared, revealing only a pair of narrow eyes, staring viciously in the direction of Du Weizhen, and Sixi who was blocking the front of him had cold hands and feet, but still stood there stubbornly.

The assassin kicked his feet, and the person shot at them like an off-string arrow, Sixi pulled Du Weizhen to dodge, but the assassin's speed was much faster than them, obviously unable to dodge, just when the assassin flew in front of the two, Sixi opened his hand to protect Du Weizhen behind him, his eyes closed in fright, but only heard the sound of the sword crossing his ears, and the expected pain did not appear.

"Gu Yeyang!" Du Weizhen behind him shouted, Sixi opened his eyes and saw that the young man brought by Mu Shengbai was fighting with the assassin, his martial arts were not very good, and his body was soon left with a lot of wounds by the assassin's flexible attack, but he was better than dying, when he saw Wu Yangyang's guard appear in sight, the assassin stabbed out a sword, regardless of whether he stabbed someone or not, turned around and flew into the night.

"Why are you still stunned! Go after it! Du Weizhen's angry voice tore apart the silence of the night, and the guards who took the lead immediately led people to follow.

"Sixi, go and find the imperial doctor and ask him to bring more medicine." Du Weizhen ordered Sixi, and then ran to Gu Yeyang's side, he was stabbed in the shoulder by the assassin's last sword, bleeding non-stop, it should be extremely painful, he couldn't control the sound of gasping.

"It's okay, I'll let Sixi go to the Imperial Doctor, take you in first." Du Weizhen personally helped him up, and his voice was very gentle, not only because he was Mu Shengbai's apprentice, but also because he saved his life.

Bringing Gu Yeyang to the couch in the side hall, the gray-haired imperial doctor was quickly brought over, and after saluting Du Weizhen, he took off Gu Yeyang's clothes to check his injuries, there were many small wounds on his body, this was fine, it was the extra injury on the shoulder, the imperial doctor looked at the young man's pale face, and his lower lip was bitten white, but he couldn't help but gasp occasionally, and he was very strong.

"This son is a man of perseverance."

After taking care of the wound, Du Weizhen immediately sat on the edge of the couch and said with a pleasant face: "Don't worry, Yeyang, this time you were injured because you saved me, and I will be responsible for your physical recovery." ”

Gu Yeyang pulled out a smile a little weakly, and his voice was a little small, "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is right, Master asked me to protect you, so even if you want my life, it should be, but in this fight, I have observed the appearance and body shape of the assassin and the way he fights, if I can see this assassin next time, no matter what he has become, I can recognize him." ”

Du Weizhen showed his face in surprise, seeing that the assassin wrapped himself so tightly, he must have been afraid of being recognized, he probably didn't expect that there was such a talent as Gu Yeyang by his side. If what Gu Yeyang said was true, then it was indeed him who had lost his eyes before.

There was such a big disturbance in the East Palace, and Emperor Jingyuan also knew the news of the assassination of the prince, Long Yan was furious and ordered a thorough investigation, some of which were investigated in various palaces, and some of which were carried out by Emperor Jingyuan to check door to door outside the palace, and not to let go of any suspicious people.

But except for Gu Yeyang who could recognize the assassin, the others didn't even know what the assassin looked like, and even Gu Yeyang didn't hurt that person, and it was even more nonsense to find it based on the wound, so it was in vain to get a night like this.

One night passed, the assassin would definitely not stay in the palace and wait to be killed, Du Weizhen simply asked Gu Yeyang to take the people from the criminal department to the outside of the palace to find it, don't let anyone go, with the dictate of Emperor Jingyuan and the crown prince, no one dared to stop him, Rao is a powerful figure like the prime minister and the prime minister, and the assassin did not dare to break ground on Tai Sui's head, and obediently let Gu Yeyang take the people from the criminal department to find the bottom of the sky.

As soon as they knocked on the door to show their intentions, the housekeeper took them directly to the lobby, saying that the squire had been waiting for a long time.

It was a very elegant old man, his face was full of wrinkles, but his eyes were very bright, "Fortunately, everyone, I have ordered anyone to cooperate with the investigation, please do it." ”

Gu Yeyang glanced at the person, but he was very calm, he was the first to be so cooperative and polite, everyone else would sneer and let them search again, and the prince's camp would have a better attitude to know Gu Yeyang's identity.

After Gu Yeyang thanked the Zhongshu waiter, he led people to search and inquire in the entire mansion, but they still found nothing, everyone was a little numb, and wanted to say goodbye to the waiter and leave, but inadvertently turned his head and saw a guard guarding the side of the lobby door, his pupils shrank, this person is very familiar.

Zhongshu Shilang smiled slightly, quite graceful, as if even if he was normally concerned about asking, he was not as sarcastic as others, "But what did you find?" ”

Gu Yeyang smiled silently and looked at the guard, "My lord, the junior dared to ask that person how long he had been in your mansion, he seemed to be quite loyal, and he hadn't moved for so long. ”

He looked in surprise in the direction Gu Yeyang was looking at, and after squinting his eyes to see clearly, he said with a smile: "He is indeed a loyal one, and he has been in my mansion for many years. ”
