Chapter 125: Infernal Affairs

A little palace maid suddenly walked by the carriage and said to Xu Zizhen: "Young Master Xu, the princess is invited." ”

Li Meng laughed evilly and said in a low voice: "Uncle, my sister is looking for you to catch up on the old days." ”

Xu Zizhen smiled and patted him on the head, walked a few steps quickly and jumped into the carriage, and as soon as he got into the carriage, he saw Li Luoyan's expression a little gloomy, sitting there, Xu Zizhen thought that she was still thinking about Li Sheng's death, and couldn't help but comfort softly: "Girl, don't be too sad, otherwise Brother Li won't be at ease under Jiuquan." ”

Li Luoyan shook her head: "Brother Xu, I have been hiding from you for so long, and Luo'er is really helpless, so I ask Brother Xu for forgiveness." ”

Xu Zizhen smiled: "It's nothing, everyone has their own secrets, how can I blame you?" ”

Li Luoyan said: "That's not all, Brother Xu, I'm afraid that you will come to Xixia this time...... I'm going to get involved. ”

Xu Zizhen couldn't help but be stunned: "Involved? How so? ”

Li Luoyan pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Then you have seen Empress Xiao, do you know that Brother Xu is now scheming to kill me?" ”

Xu Zizhen said strangely: "Why do you want to kill you?" Is she afraid that you and her son will compete for the throne? But you're just a princess and not a prince, so the two have nothing to do with each other. ”

Li Luoyan shook her head and said, "She is not afraid of me, but afraid that people in my family will come to retaliate." ”

Xu Zizhen became more and more confused, and asked: "Xiao Meng also said it just now, but I still don't understand, what does your mother's family have to do with Empress Xiao being so arrogant now?" ”

"Back then, my mother was given to death for no reason, and soon my Yun family got the news that my maternal grandfather and my uncle led the entire elite of the clan into the palace to find ...... asked him for an explanation, but as an emperor, how could he be coerced? What's more, in a fit of rage at that time, he actually ordered all the people in my family to be taken down. ”

Li Luoyan's voice became deeper and lower, with unconcealable hatred and anger: "My second uncle rushed over when he heard the letter and wanted to persuade him, but he ...... He showed no mercy and killed all of my mother's people. ”

Xu Zizhen's hair was cold, the Chongzong who looked dull and lazy was so ruthless, which he didn't expect, but he suddenly remembered a scene in his mind, that is, Chongzong's fierce color flashed in an instant when he gave the order to shoot those assassins.

Li Luoyan's emotions were obviously a little out of control, and her whole body trembled involuntarily, Xu Zizhen patted the back of her hand lightly, and said softly: "Then what are your plans now?" ”

Li Luoyan said: "Brother Xu, don't you know, in that battle, although all the people in my Yun clan were captured, but most of the good players in his palace were killed and injured because of this, the Xiao family took advantage of the situation, took this opportunity to control the overall situation in the palace, and became the first family in my Great Xia, even if he wanted to stop it, he was powerless." ”

Xu Zizhen knew that the "he" in her mouth was the current Western Xia Emperor Chongzong, and he didn't interrupt her when he saw that she was emotional.

I only heard her continue: "That day's melee shook the entire Great Xia Kingdom, if it weren't for my father's desperate efforts to take me out of the palace, I'm afraid that I would have died in that melee, my second uncle dissuaded him from leaving with no result, that is, the Master of Pure Virtue you saw later." ”

Xu Zizhen was dumbfounded, he never thought that the second prince of the Western Xia Kingdom would go to Suzhou to become a monk, and Li Luoyan has always been a gentle and simple woman in his heart, but he would have such a complicated life experience.

He thought for a moment and asked, "What about ...... Is the Yun family still there? ”

Li Luoyan said: "Naturally, if not, what is the woman surnamed Xiao afraid of?" ”

Xu Zizhen was curious: "Oh? Is there still such a great power for the Yun family to suffer from that difficulty? ”

Li Luoyan said: "The Yun family is the largest family in the Great Xia Kingdom, even if it suffers the catastrophe, the appeal among the clan is still extraordinary, not to mention ......" She bit her lip and said in a low voice, "My Yun family has always had an old relationship with the Great Liao royal family, and he didn't dare to exterminate my Yun family." ”

Xu Zizhen finally suddenly realized that Empress Xiao framed Duan Hou back then, which led to the almost collapse of the Yun family, and now Li Luoyan has returned to the palace to seal the princess, the Yun family seems to have found the backbone, this revenge is bound to come back to revenge, then Empress Xiao is naturally panicked, that is to say, Li Luoyan is now not only the identity of the princess, but also a banner of the Yun family.

Thinking of this, he was even more curious, he didn't know how strong the Yun family's power was, and even Empress Xiao would be afraid of such a means, but the Jin State had already invaded Daliao, and this once powerful country was about to be wiped out, what should the Yun family do if they lost this big arm? I'm afraid this news has already spread to Western Xia, but why is Empress Xiao so jealous of the Yun family?

The relationship is complicated, Xu Zizhen is not good at thinking about these, he only feels that his head is as big as a fight, and he can't figure it out, at this moment, a sharp sound suddenly came from outside the car window.

"Be careful!" Xu Zizhen was startled, hugged Li Luoyan and pressed her down in the carriage.

A dense rain of arrows suddenly flew in from the car window, turning the car into a mess, Xu Zizhen suddenly broke out in a cold sweat, if it wasn't for his quick reaction, I was afraid that he and Li Luoyan had been shot into hedgehogs.

The eunuchs and palace maids accompanying them outside the car were in a commotion and exclaimed, "There are assassins! Protect Her Royal Highness! ”

Xu Zizhen said in a low voice: "Girl, don't move while lying on your stomach, I'll go out and take a look." ”

Li Luoyan didn't panic at all: "Brother Xu, be careful!" ”

Xu Zizhen nodded, Tang Dao was already in his hand, he turned over and jumped out of the car, and as soon as his feet landed, he hid in the side of the car, Li Meng had already protected the car, and his spear was left in Lanzhou Mansion, at this time he was holding an ordinary steel knife in his hand, and he was looking at the queue with a vigilant face.

More than a dozen black-clothed men rushed over with long swords in their hands, and Xu Zizhen's eyes were sharp, and he soon found that the hems of their clothes were embroidered with golden ripples.

"Damn, it's three unique halls again!" Xu Zizhen scolded and shouted softly, "Xiao Meng, you protect your sister left and right!" ”

"Good!"

The two quickly separated, standing in front of the car in the shape of horns, although the number of people in the Sanjue Hall was not as large as their own side, but they were all highly skilled, and it was impossible to resist with those ordinary palace guards, and those palace maids and eunuchs could only tremble and scream.

Since their target is Li Luoyan in the car, they can only stick to the side of the car!

Sure enough, as Xu Zizhen expected, as soon as the dozen or so black-clothed talents rushed into the team, they were like chopping melons and vegetables, and soon killed those guards and defeated them, and the situation became more and more critical, Xu Zizhen couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat in his palms, these black-clothed people had two ripples on their clothes, and three of them had three ripples, with his and Li Meng's skills, he was afraid that he was not an opponent at all.

Soon the dozen or so black-clothed people went straight to the front of the car with lightning speed, and the first one didn't talk much nonsense at all, and directly slashed at Xu Zizhen, with a terrifying might.

Xu Zizhen's body was short and dodged, and he met the knife with a hand, only to hear a soft sound, the knife in the man's hand was suddenly missing, and the person couldn't help but be startled when he was caught off guard, Xu Zizhen did not hesitate, and deceived him and smeared his neck, the man snorted, and a bloody arrow on his neck spurted, and he was suddenly closed.

Since he rushed into the enemy group, he no longer has any scruples, and the chaotic cloak is suitable for fighting more with less, not to mention that the current situation is extremely dangerous, Xu Zizhen shouted, and killed like a mad tiger among the dozen or so black-clothed people.

Tang Dao was extremely powerful, any weapon was broken or broken by him, more than a dozen people in black were caught off guard, and they were almost out of order, but after all, they were long-trained assassins in the Three Peerless Hall, and they quickly stabilized their minds, and more than a dozen people scattered in all directions, surrounding Xu Zizhen in the center, but they did not approach, no matter where Xu Zizhen attacked, several people on that side immediately retreated a few steps, and the other three parties quickly surrounded them.

They obviously have a lot of experience, so Xu Zizhen fell into a stalemate, the attack had no effect, and he was trapped by people, although he did not fight for the time being, but if it went on like this, once he was found to be flawed, it would be a losing situation.

Xu Zizhen was also secretly complaining at this time, just a short period of effort, he was attacked a few times by someone who was cold, although he was not seriously injured by his quick reaction, but he had suffered several injuries on his back, arms and waist, and blood was gushing out, dyeing his clothes into a blood-red color.

Those black-clothed people still had no intention of attacking, they just looked at him coldly, as if they were looking at a fierce beast trapped in a cage, vigilant but contemptuous, they were waiting, waiting for Xu Zizhen's will to collapse, that is when they harvested his life.

"Stop!"

With a clear sound, Li Luoyan suddenly lifted the curtain and stepped down, her eyes coldly glanced at the dozen or so black-clothed people, her expression was indifferent, but there was a faint sense of inviolability, Li Meng flashed in front of her, and said hurriedly: "Sister, why did you come down?" Go back! ”

Li Luoyan shook his head and said in a firm tone: "When did my Yun family's sons and daughters become so cowardly? It's just three unique halls, if you want my life, just take it! ”

A man in black smiled: "Her Royal Highness the princess is so bold, since this is the case, then it will be disrespectful for me to wait." As he spoke, he waved his hand to the accomplice beside him, and immediately three people separated out and attacked Li Luoyan.

Xu Zizhen was in a hurry, and wanted to rush out to the rescue, but was dragged by someone and couldn't break through, at this time, suddenly a graceful figure jumped out of the forest, and came to everyone in front of her in a breath, her face was beautiful, her eyes were cold, she glanced at the dozen or so people in black lightly, and said coldly: "Why don't you do it yet?" ”

The black-clothed man looked awkward, and the black-clothed man who spoke before touched his chest with one hand, and saluted respectfully: "The left envoy forgives the sins, this person ......"

As soon as he was halfway through his sentence, the left envoy suddenly raised his hand, white light flashed, and a long sword suddenly pierced the throat of the man in black, and the man in black had round eyes and fell to the ground with a look of disbelief on his face.

Xu Zizhen saw it really in the crowd, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Damn, Infernal Affairs?" ”
