Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Eve of Dawn

The night is getting deeper, and the autumn wind blows, bringing a hint of coolness.

In the palace, after the noise, there is still a bit of chaos in the quiet.

In the mansion, under the illumination of the lights, Cheng Ao and the three finished glyphs stood opposite the guards in the mansion, and the two sides confronted each other coldly, without saying a word.

was silent for a long time, seeing that everyone did not come forward, Fang Shan frowned, suddenly stretched his body, stretched his waist, nodded at Wen Ya in front of the crowd and smiled:

"Don't say it, you're not weak in kung fu, I'll fucking not be able to help you for a while."

On the side, Cheng Ao rarely did not refute, nodded, but still took a sip and scolded with a smile:

"What a little girl, that's gentle, Liu Xiu's 'close' guard, as far as your three-legged cat's kung fu is concerned, no one will look at it!"

"Really?" Hearing this, Fang Shan cracked his mouth and laughed, and said: "Damn, no wonder Lao Tzu thinks this girl is so easy and suits my appetite, it turns out to be Liu Xiu's 'personal person'!" After speaking, he looked at Wen Ya with a smile, made a smile that he thought was handsome, and said:

"Wen Guard! How about we have a 'close-to-body' fight again? ”

After speaking, he seemed to inadvertently glance at the study door behind Wen Ya, which had never been opened.

Liu Xiu didn't come out from beginning to end, isn't he in the study?

He felt a pang in his heart, and while looking at Wen Ya with a smile, he moved his muscles and bones, and when he was close to Cheng Ao's ear, he suddenly whispered:

"Cheng Ao, I'm afraid Liu Xiu is not here, and the door of the study is heavily guarded, you and I will never get it tonight, it is better to exit the palace first and make plans."

Cheng Ao didn't answer after hearing this, but he only heard Li Shunyi, a martial artist of the Cheng family class next to him who had never spoken, suddenly opened his mouth and said in a deep voice:

"Two, the prince has an order, if the big thing doesn't happen tonight, don't force it, wait for it in the future. The two of you are now ready to retreat, there is one of our people in the third tree behind us to answer us, you and I have to find a way to retreat there, escape from the palace, and then go all the way to the south, there is a carriage waiting in the old place, two, get ready now, and then set off and flee for your life! ”

After speaking, he was short and made a fighting posture.

Hearing Li Shunyi's words, Cheng Ao's body was shocked, his face instantly turned pale, he clenched his fists, gritted his teeth and held back without looking back.

In the middle of the night, there is still a layer of hazy in the air that has just rained, and as far as the eye can see, the distant scenery is full of shadows, and it is not real to see.

But Cheng Ao clearly saw a weak child, standing there with a mischievous smile, standing behind everyone, but behind his smile was an unfathomable look.

He took a breath, shook his head, threw the thoughts out of his mind, turned his head sideways and whispered to Fang Shan beside him: "Listen to him, prepare to withdraw." ”

Fang Shan's eyes narrowed, patted the long sword in his hand, indicating that he understood, and at the same time licked his lips, and said gently:

"Little girl, come on, come on, you and I will fight it out tonight! Let's see if Liu Xiu is powerful, or Lao Tzu is majestic! ”

Wen Yaxiu frowned, but did not answer, and did not even move her body, but in the dim candlelight, her legs trembled uncontrollably.

At this moment, she stood in front of the guards, and in the candlelight, her face was cloudy and unsettled, and she looked very haggard, as if she had been wounded, and blood was dripping from the long sword she held.

There was a trace of fatigue in her eyes, although her eyes deliberately showed a sharp light, but it was more like a bluff, she stood at the door of the study like this, and did not give the order to attack, but just confronted Cheng Ao and the others.

It seemed that she had even out her breath, and after a while, she sneered and replied in a cold voice that made people feel cold to the bone marrow:

"Since Lord Fang invites her, the little woman is better than obeying her fate!"

Fang Shan laughed after hearing this, and was just about to open his mouth to laugh, when Cheng Ao next to him suddenly kicked him, blocking his words, with a solemn expression, and said:

"Escort Wen is confused, right? When did the bastard Fang Shan establish 'Fang Daren', such a big thing, Lao Tzu has never heard of it, could it be that the king of England secretly canonized it? ”

When Fang Shan heard this, his heart sank, cold sweat flowed on his back, and he stomped his feet and said:

"Lao Tzu is not uncommon, what is not official, adults are not big, Lao Tzu is not rare, Lao Tzu has always been alone and used to fighting swords and swords, and he is happy and revenge! Regardless of the princes and princes! ”

Wen Ya sneered, and was about to answer, when she saw the three of them suddenly move with their swords at the same time, attacking forward, Wen Ya's eyes flashed, and she shouted:

"Stop them and protect Your Highness!"

Before the words fell, I saw that the guards had already left, and the open fire was fighting, rushing towards the three of them, at this moment, the three of them suddenly shouted in unison, Cheng Ao fell to the ground and rolled backwards, and Li Shunyi and Fang Shan Er Void slashed a few times, and a few vertical leaps also retreated sharply.

Only a few "snorts" were heard, followed by screams, the figure fell, and the three of them escaped from the encirclement at the same time.

Wen Ya saw that it was not good, and hurriedly commanded the guards to encircle and chase them, but the three of them moved extremely fast, and it was difficult for the guards to catch up, but after a while, they fled to the bottom of the big tree, and then a few figures floated from under the tree, and the three escaped from the house.

By the time the guards climbed the wall and whispered in pursuit, the Assassins had long since disappeared without a trace.

The palace covers an extremely large area, the walls are extremely high and strong, and it is the most difficult mansion to invade in the entire Dongping City, but after the rain tonight, only a few assassins will occupy this prestigious palace.

Wen Ya held her arm and smiled bitterly, the blood had stained her clothes, which was shocking to look at, but her face did not show any emotion.

In the middle of the night, the wind that blew after the rain was bitterly cold, brushing her face and blowing into her wounds, and the pain almost made her unsteady on her feet.

Wen Ya took a deep breath, the torches behind her were bright, and the guards who poured out from the darkness occupied the mansion, although everyone was constantly coming and going, but the entire palace was still quiet, and there was no noise.

The guards were divided into groups in an orderly manner, some were responsible for cleaning up the "battlefield", some were responsible for counting the number of people, and the rest were on guard again.

As if it had been rehearsed in advance, no one was surprised by what happened tonight.

There was silence throughout the house, and the panic caused by the assassination quickly calmed down as if nothing had happened.

And Liu Xiu never appeared-

After the autumn rains, the clear sky came very late, and dark clouds still hung over the land, making the night even darker in Dongping.

It's just that the air is much cleaner than before.

Like people, and the world in general, it will eventually come to the extreme.

In a mansion not far from the palace.

King Liu Xiu stood in front of the window, watching the rain on the eaves outside the window slowly dripping, sliding to the top of the window edge to gather into a stream, flowing down in strands, like a waterfall scene, galloping is gone, occasionally a few drops of rain fall from a high place, before reaching the window edge, it was sent by the wind, blowing to the face, cold and comfortable, making people feel refreshed.

Outside the house at the moment, the sky was overcast, the ink was like paint, and there was no light in sight, and it was the darkest time of the day, before dawn.

His eyes narrowed slightly, he sighed, and shook his head.

In his ears, Zhang Quanhai's voice suddenly sounded: "Your Highness." ”

Liu Xiu turned his head, saw him approaching from behind, nodded, and replied, "What's the matter?" ”

Zhang Quanhai gave a simple salute, and after saying hello, he looked out the window, shook his head, and said:

"It's dark tonight."

Liu Xiu looked back, only to see that the guards at the door were doing their duties without moving, frowning, and asked:

"How's the situation in the house?"

Zhang Quanhai bowed and replied:

"Your Highness, everything is going according to plan."

Liu Xiu nodded, looked at the night outside the window, smelled the fresh air after the rain, and suddenly turned his head to Zhang Quanhaidao:

"It's finally going to change." After speaking, he waved his hand gently, as if talking to himself, as if he was sighing, sighed, don't look around, and said:

"After waiting for so long, I finally lived up to your expectations, 'Old Prince', Xiu'er did it, can you see it in the Spirit of Heaven?"

Zhang Quanhai didn't know why, hung his head silently, and didn't dare to answer.

Seeing him like this, Liu Xiu smiled and said:

"The palace has calmed down, and there is no more noise, you will immediately send someone to find out the situation, especially"

His voice fell, stopped, glanced at Zhang Quanhai, and said casually:

"Fang Shan and Li Shunyi don't know the severity of their hands, there is only one master in the house, Wen Ya is a master town, her old injuries have not healed, don't have an accident, you immediately send someone back to the house to see if she is injured, no matter what the result is, immediately return to me!"

Zhang Quanhai saw Liu Xiu's rare anxious look, his body shook, and his thoughts turned sharply, but his face did not show any expression, and he bowed his head and said, "My subordinates will do it." ”

After finishing speaking, he retreated and went out, summoned a few guards who were usually clever and neat, gave a few orders, and several people obeyed the order, nodded again and again, and turned away.

Seeing them go away, Zhang Quanhai rearranged the guards to ensure that nothing went wrong, and then walked back into the room and came to Liu Xiu's side.

Seeing that the matter had been done, Liu Xiu nodded, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

"You have been following me for several years, you have always been brave and resourceful, and your martial arts are strong, and I am just a powerless and powerless third prince of the empire, have you ever been wronged over the years?"

After hearing this, Zhang Quanhai suddenly raised his head, his fists clenched, but there was a heartfelt smile on his face, and he replied:

"Your Highness has always believed that he is not following the wrong person, and in the future, His Highness will rule the country, and his subordinates will be the founding heroes of the country, and their names will be immortal."

Liu Xiu smiled slightly after hearing this, stood with his hands in his hands, looked at the night outside the window, nodded, and said:

"Although the world is big, but the highest place can only allow me to stand alone!"

Zhang Quanhai was expressionless, and responded: "My subordinates swear to follow!" ”

After hearing this, Liu Xiu turned back with a smile and said, "After today, every step will be extremely dangerous, you have to be prepared, even if you are gentle,"

His eyes flashed, his fists clenched, and he continued:

"For the sake of the world, I also let her bear the risk of death."

Zhang Quanhai's face changed, and he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and said in a deep voice:

"Even if His Highness lets the villain go to the soup, the villain will not frown, please rest assured!"

Liu Xiu's eyes flashed, and he hurriedly helped him up, and said with a smile:

"You have been with me for several years, how can I not trust you, I just let you be prepared, after all, every step you take in the future will bear great risks, especially compared to Luo Jing's time, if you are not careful, you will have to worry about your life."

"The villain will not give up even though he is dead."

Liu Xiu nodded and said, "Since that's the case, I'm relieved." ”

Then he turned his head to look out the window, and saw that there was already a faint light in the sky of the fourth watch, and a faint light had come out of the darkness.

He turned his head, looked at Zhang Quanhai, and said in a deep voice: "You leave immediately, secretly contact Chen Yuting, and ask her to arrange a response, I will see Liu Xun's head at this time tomorrow night." ”――
