Chapter 47 Seven Scuffles
Knowing that she was indeed pregnant with Liu Xian's child, Qing'er didn't know whether she was happy or sad in her heart. Speaking of Liu Xian's current relationship with herself, Qing'er was not willing at all, but not only did she become his woman, but she was also pregnant with his child, which was the trick of fate.
At this time, Qing'er had to calculate her position: she betrayed the Empress Dowager Li and served Liu Yan. Of course, in order to avoid losing the use value, I did not tell everything I knew. Now his situation is embarrassing, once Liu Yan's camp wins, then the Queen Mother will naturally have no good fruit to eat, and Liu Xian, the King of Chu born to the Queen Mother, will become a thorn in Liu Yan's side. Not only was he the only obstacle to Liu Yan's succession, but his mother did not hesitate to communicate with foreign countries in order to oust Liu Yan from the throne, and even tried to lure foreign enemies into Beijing. Even if Liu Yan will open up this time, his subordinates will not let go of King Chu in order to prevent trouble. Originally, he had already relied on Wu Sicheng and left a way back for himself, but now that he is pregnant with Liu Xian's child, will Liu Yan let himself go? Will Wu Sicheng still help himself? Could it be that his destiny is to start an incident with Liu Xian and Empress Dowager Li?
To be honest, I am not optimistic about the Empress Dowager Li's side. This is not because Empress Dowager Li is not strong enough, it's just that Qing'er realized the strength and terrifyingness of the opponent one step earlier than Empress Dowager Li, and made a judgment after weighing the pros and cons. No matter what you choose at the moment, it is not Qing'er's original intention, nor is it the best strategy.
For this reason, Qing'er tossed and turned until late at night, looking at Liu Xian, the king of Chu who was already asleep beside her, Qing'er couldn't help crying secretly.
At this moment, an extremely slight sound touched Qing'er's eardrums. Qing'er immediately sat up. As expected. Soon a terrible cry was heard from the roof outside the courtyard: "There are assassins! ”
It didn't matter what happened, and the people around the courtyard suddenly shouted, "Catch the assassin!" ”
Then came the sound of weapons intersecting.
Qing'er was busy sorting out her clothes and woke up Liu Xian: "Your Highness! Your Highness! ”
In fact, Liu Xian was also woken up by the sound outside. I just woke up and didn't understand the situation yet. Liu Xian rubbed his eyes and said, "What's so noisy?" ”
"There's an assassin infiltrating. Your Highness. Qing'er's voice was not flustered, but her mind had already turned several times - who were these assassins here to assassinate? If it is the king of Chu, then it can only be Liu Yan's person; Or is there another purpose?
"Who is so bold as to dare to assassinate this king?" Liu Xian said angrily.
"Your Highness be quiet," Qing'er hurriedly covered Liu Xian's mouth, because from the sound outside, it sounded that the assassin's side had the upper hand. "Is there a secret passage here where I can escape?"
Liu Xian nodded, broke free of Qing'er's hand and said, "It's behind the closet!" ”
At this moment, a guard from the Chu Palace's mansion stumbled in: "Your Highness, please leave quickly!" The subordinates are almost unable to resist."
The voice did not fall. The guard vomited blood and fell to the ground, as he had been hit by two throwing knives in his back and a wound four inches long on his lower back. Outside the door, there were constant shouts of "protect the prince".
Liu Xian was so frightened by this scene that he stiffened, and Qing'er saw that the situation was not good, so he hurriedly ripped open the wardrobe, and sure enough, a secret door was revealed. Qing'er stretched out her hand and twisted the mechanism, and the door creaked open. Qing'er turned around and pulled Liu Xian up, and just as he stuffed Liu Xian into the secret passage, the first assassin had already arrived behind. Qing'er could only hear the sound of the wind behind her stabbing straight behind her. His heart tightened, but at this moment, he heard the assassin let out a scream, and the knife stabbed the wall next to Qing'er's head.
When Qing'er looked back in a hurry, she saw a young man with a light and strong body fighting two assassins alone. Fang Cai's life-saving blow was undoubtedly made by this person, but this person was also wearing a night coat and was not the guard of the Chu Palace.
"Qing'er. What are you sending! Let's go! Liu Xian had already entered the dark passage, but he saw that Qing'er did not follow. Folded back again.
"Your Highness, what are you doing here! Let's go! Qing'er was in a hurry when she saw this, and couldn't help but shout.
These two words of these two people were clearly heard by Ji Chongxin, who was engaged in the assassin's battle. I can't help but have joys and sorrows in my heart. Happily, it turned out that Qing'er was really with the King of Chu, and the main owner was finally found; The worry is that there are two masters in front of him, and he is already overwhelmed, and he has no room to take Qing'er away, once Qing'er escapes from the dark passage with the King of Chu, it will be a big deal.
Before Ji Chongxin could open his mouth to stop Qing'er, the two assassins had already taken action, one of them entangled Ji Chongxin, and the other swung his knife at Qing'er and Liu Xian.
"Bold thief, presumptuous!" Seeing that the situation was critical, Liu Xian stood up and protected Qing'er, and shouted loudly.
The momentum of the knife in the assassin's hand slowed down, and then he used the back of the knife to open Liu Xian, and scolded: "If you don't want to die, flash the edge!" ”
It was only at this time that Qing'er suddenly realized that she had always thought that the other party's target was Liu Xian, the king of Chu, but it turned out that the assassin's target was herself!
After such a delay, Ji Chongxin had already taken a step forward, swung his knife to open the assassin's knife, and fought with the two assassins again. Seeing that they would not be able to assassinate their targets if they continued like this, the two assassins immediately struck with their lives, completely ignoring Ji Chongxin's attack, and rushed towards Qing'er together!
When Ji Chongxin slashed one of the assassins into two pieces, he was powerless to stop the other assassin's actions.
Liu Xian saw that Qing'er was in danger, and even though he was in front of Qing'er, Qing'er was one step faster than him, and pushed him away with both hands. Seeing that the tip of the assassin's knife had reached Qing'er's heart, it was too late to say that it was too fast, only to hear a loud noise, and a figure broke through the door, impartially bumped into the assassin, and knocked the assassin out with a knife!
This sudden action stunned several people in the room. When the dust cleared, Ji Chongxin saw that it was Jingil who crashed into the house.
Speaking of which, the subtle noise that Qing'er heard just now was actually made by Jinjier. It was his warning to the palace guards that revealed the Assassins' whereabouts, and then while the guards were engaged in a fierce battle with the Assassins, he rushed into the house with his men to cover Ji Chongxin. Ginger then fought the Assassins in the courtyard, but he was the weakest of them in martial arts - all of them were masters. Even though Jinjir's martial arts are not weak, compared with these people, he is naturally forced to be in danger, but fortunately, his martial arts of the Tuqi people make the opponent somewhat uncomfortable, otherwise with the ruthlessness of these assassins, Jinjir may not be able to save his life.
After a short but fierce battle, both the royal guards, the Assassins, and Ginger's men suffered heavy casualties. Thankfully, due to the sharp decline in numbers, Ginger was given a little respite. At this time, he saw that the situation in the house was urgent, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he bent down and broke into the door, saving Qing'er's life at the last moment.
At this time, the assassin who was knocked to the ground by Ginger also wanted to give Ginger a backhand blow, but Ji Chongxin was quick and threw the knife in his hand, nailing the assassin to the ground.
Ginger let out a sigh of relief: "It's so dangerous, thank you, big brother." ”
Halfway through Jinjier's words, he suddenly lost his voice, because at this time he saw one thing clearly-when he flew to save Qing'er just now, the assassin's knife was already too close to Qing'er, so that when he hit the assassin, the tip of the knife injured Liu Xian, the king of Chu on the side, and the wound was cut from the left abdomen to the right waist, although it did not hurt the internal organs, but the abdominal cavity broke a big hole, and the blood had already dyed Liu Xian's robe a piece of red!
