Chapter 60: Assassination

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but glance at Song Su with great guilt, and then looked at Ying Heng, who was as cold as ice next to her, and thought to herself in her heart, what should she say at this time?

Just as Gu Ziqing was racking his brains to think about it, a melodious and tactful singing voice suddenly came from not far away.

The crowd was looking for prestige, but when they had arrived, where the lotus flowers were in full bloom, there was a lotus picker who was floating in a small boat, singing songs and picking lotus seeds.

The moment Gu Ziqing saw the woman, he couldn't help but cast a grateful glance at her.

Just now she was thinking about how to break the siege, but she didn't want to be at this moment, there was a singing, it was really blessed by God!

Gu Ziqing glanced at it secretly, Ying Heng and Song Su next to him, seeing that both of them looked at the lotus girl without saying a word, and listened carefully to the Jiangnan tune in her mouth, Gu Ziqing's face was instantly overflowing with smiles.

In this way, the two of them will forget what happened just now, and such an embarrassing situation will be naturally solved, and she doesn't have to think about it anymore.

The lotus picker propped up the boat and gradually sailed towards them, and the tone in her mouth never stopped.

At this time, many people had gathered on the shore because of her singing, and they all looked over here and enjoyed the beautiful scenery.

Suddenly, a man's voice sounded on the shore, across a pool of lake water, and the lotus picking girl sang in duet, the male voice was high-pitched, the girl was tactful, singing and harmonizing, instantly creating the surrounding atmosphere to the highest point.

Gu Ziqing and the others sat in the painting boat, looking at the scene at this time, they were also very excited, and they couldn't help but stand up one after another, walked to the edge of the painting boat, poked their heads and looked out, wanting to see the demeanor of the son and the lotus picker.

And when everyone was so forgetful, there were a few pairs of eyes on the shore, staring at the painting boat, like a hungry wolf on the grassland, crawling there, waiting for the opportunity to attack them.

As soon as the song was sung, everyone on the boat and on the shore applauded and cheered for the prince and the lotus picker.

At this moment, several sharp arrows suddenly shot out of the crowd, and they all came towards the painting boat.

Gu Ziqing was stunned by the scene in front of him, and was stunned for a while, not knowing what to do?

Fortunately, Ying Heng on the side reacted very quickly, grabbed her shoulder, and turned around to dodge a sharp arrow that had just passed by.

Then Ying Heng put his arm around Gu Ziqing, came to the painting boat, settled her somewhere, and after making sure that Gu Ziqing would not be harmed, he walked out cautiously and checked the situation outside.

By this time, the people on the shore had already gone, so the assassins could easily be seen.

Ying Heng looked at the shore and the distance between the painting boat and the shore, so he immediately gave an order, "Jump into the lake and go to the shore to catch people." ”

Hearing his order, the guards jumped into the lake, and after a splash, the lake was calm again.

The guards brought by Ying Heng have all been strictly trained by him, so Ying Heng is very confident in their skills.

Sure enough, in a few moments, the guards came out of the water, jumped ashore, and threw their assassins to the ground and tied them up with ropes.

Seeing this scene, Ying Heng couldn't help but show a satisfied smile, then stood up, helped Gu Ziqing out of the corner, and asked the boatman to row the painting boat to the shore.

Ying Heng stepped onto the shore and came to the front of the gang, carefully identifying it, and sure enough, there was one of them, the one he saw in Chunfeng Tower.

"Tell me, who sent you all?" Ying Heng looked at the man and asked coldly.

The man didn't speak, just turned his head sideways and looked at Gu Ziqing viciously on the side.

Everyone followed his line of sight and looked over, and Gu Ziqing at this time, who had just reacted from the fright, didn't notice their gaze at all, just stared at Ying Heng's wrist that was injured because of protecting himself.

In this way, after everyone looked at Gu Ziqing, they found something wrong in her eyes, and then turned their heads to see Ying Heng's body.

Seeing this scene, Ying Heng coughed a little embarrassed, and when Gu Ziqing heard the voice, he reacted and found that everyone was looking at him.

She looked around, and finally fixed her eyes on Song Su's body, and cast an unknown gaze at him.

Song Su couldn't help but want to laugh when he saw Gu Ziqing's cute appearance, but because of this occasion, he was suffocated by him.

He pursed his lips and said with a straight face: "Miss Gu, these assassins seem to be coming for you!"

Hearing this, Gu Ziqing blinked, then pointed to his nose with a finger, then looked at the assassin who was tied, and said with a look of disbelief: "Are you here for me? want to kill me? Who sent you?"

"Taking people's money and people to eliminate disasters, although it has failed now, it has categorically not explained the reason of the owner, you want to kill it, please scratch it! Don't ask us anything. The man in the lead said with a stiff face.

Now that the mission has failed, he has fallen into the hands of these people, no matter whether he confesses or not, no matter which side he goes, it is a dead end, so it is better to keep his integrity and not open his mouth.

Although the man's words did not explain who the person behind the scenes was, he had already admitted in disguise that the target of their assassination was Gu Ziqing, but they also counted Ying Heng together by mistake, and also injured him by mistake.

"I didn't expect you to be quite professional. Gu Ziqing nodded and praised.

Then she changed her words, "But your assassination today is not just as simple as a failure of the mission, you also assassinated the wrong person and injured His Royal Highness the current imperial grandson." ”

"Even if I don't want to pursue it and execute you directly, then presumably His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun will not agree, he will definitely investigate to the end and find out who is behind the scenes. ”

Hearing her words, Ying Heng couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, this girl is so smart, and she will use him as a shield to induce these people to confess.

Gu Ziqing didn't notice Ying Heng's eyes, but continued to say to the gang: "If you are all alone, then naturally you don't have to be afraid of anything, even if you want to punish the Nine Clans, then you are the only one." ”

"But if you have others in your family, then you have to think twice, hide it for others, and refuse to confess, then it will be a crime of one more degree, I advise you to think about it!"
