By the end of October, the weather was getting colder.

Wu Zhitong looked at the news sent by the capital, and knew that his uncle was ready to give it a go, he had received the great favor of the Duke of Qiyang, and he had long regarded himself as a member of the eldest grandson's family, so he naturally had to prepare everything, Qingzhou was not far from Mount Tai, and it was a sufficient rear in all aspects.

Now that this aspect of the matter has been decided, the truth that Zhao Ling is now pursuing is not so important, he has to think of a way to trap Zhao Ling in Qingzhou, then the capital will inevitably be jealous of the safety of this prince.

"Someone!" Wu Zhitong thought for a moment and called his subordinates in, "What has the prince been doing all these days?" ”

"Let Miss pull out to play in the mountains and rivers, I'm afraid that he himself guessed that in Qingzhou, without our cooperation, he couldn't find any useful news, so he simply gave up, and was pulled by Miss all day long to either swim in the lake or find food, and have a lot of fun!" The subordinate said.

"That's not right!" Wu Zhitong felt that something was wrong, with Zhao Ling's character, even if he couldn't find any clues, he would go back to Beijing early, and he wouldn't stay to really enjoy the mountains and rivers, was he distracting us? Or did he take the bright line, and the dark line came to Qingzhou?

"If the prince has always wanted to have fun in Qingzhou, you don't have to worry about it, let him go, if the prince has the idea of leaving Qingzhou, come to report it immediately, don't let him leave first!" Wu Zhitong said.

"Yes! The young lady ......"

"Let her go first, with her, she may be able to reduce Zhao Ling's defenses, but you pay attention to proportion, once something is wrong, let that girl come back!"

"Subordinates obey!"

Although the weather is colder, but today's sunshine is just right, boating on the lake, seeing the broken traces of lotus flowers on the lake, but also a bit of artistic conception.

"If you come in the summer, the lotus flowers are in full bloom, but I love the winter!" Wu Yingying smiled softly, "It's too noisy here in summer, how can it be quiet in winter?" Besides, although there are so many men and women here in the summer, there are few who can catch the eye, and today I am really happy to have two stunning people by my side! ”

Yang Xing's eyebrows jumped slightly, Zhao Ling had already been accustomed to it, in fact, in addition to liking men, this Miss Wu often spoke amazingly, but there was nothing else annoying about it. Her stubborn personality forced Yang Xing to admit that she had a sweetheart, but she didn't show any jealousy, as always, occasionally flirting with words.

Wu Yingying got up from the bow of the boat, walked to Zhao Ling's side on her feet, and said: "I heard that your princess once disguised herself as a man and fascinated a foreign princess, and I think the princess in the next life is also a stunning beauty, I don't know when I will have this opportunity to meet her?" ”

"If I can still come to Qingzhou in the future, I will bring my wife with me!" Zhao Ling said lightly.

"Great!" Wu Yingying stroked her palms and smiled, "In this way, you can feast your eyes again!" ”

The surface of the lake is calm, except for the faint ripples left by the passing of boats.

At this moment, suddenly several black shadows jumped up from the water, and the knives in their hands glowed with a miserable white light, and a fierce murderous aura attacked several people.

"Be careful!" Yang Xing's eyes tightened, and the sword in his hand quickly unsheathed, and a cold light flashed, forcing Fang Cai's wave of killing machines back with just a compelling sword wind.

Zhao Ling unhurriedly pulled out his saber, protected Wu Yingying behind him, and said lightly: "Your martial arts have gone to the next level!" ”

Wu Yingying had seen such a situation there, and she had already been doused by the water traces brought out by these killers, screaming and hiding behind Zhao Ling, and asked fearfully, "Who are these people!" ”

"Someone who wants to take my life!" Zhao Ling glanced at several black-clothed people around him, "Close your eyes, with us, you'll be fine!" ”

"Hmm!" Wu Yingying's obedient eyes closed, and then she heard the sound of hand-to-hand soldiers, and the boat under her also shook violently, she squatted down, groped for a rope, and grabbed it tightly.

Yang Xing had already jumped to the surface of the water and fought with a few men in black, his moves were extremely powerful, and the moves were fatal, and the men in black had no way to resist at all, but only dragged Yang Xing in a way of exchanging lives for lives.

On the other hand, several other black-clothed people attacked Zhao Ling, Zhao Ling's moves were not as strong as Yang Xingling's, but they were elegant and chic, and their strong murderous aura was overflowing, and they were close to the vital point, and several black-clothed assassins were not allowed to get close to his body for the time being.

However, these people were not all of the assassins, Zhao Ling soon found that the ship under his feet began to shake violently, he frowned, hurriedly hugged Wu Yingying, and jumped into the air, and just as he jumped up, the ship under his feet suddenly split apart and was chiseled open from below.

Zhao Lingren was in mid-air, and Wu Yingying, who was screaming and not opening his eyes, frowned and quickly checked the surrounding environment, just between the lightning and flint, he saw a small boat slowly rowing in his direction, generally speaking, seeing the bloody assassination that happened here, the boatman would not come in this direction, so he couldn't think about it, and immediately fell, clicked on a piece of broken wood on the lake, and flew to another small boat.

The boat family was a young ordinary person, but he didn't panic at all when he saw this situation, but these familiar eyes still made Zhao Ling guess his identity at once.

The assassin naturally chased him to this ship, and several sword shadows attacked in the direction of Zhao Ling again, but at this time, the strange boatman picked up the oar in his hand and waved it fiercely on the surface of the lake, and suddenly, the water beads full of murderous aura attacked the black-clothed assassin, and the water beads were like blades, forcing the black-clothed man to retreat.

The man in black adjusted slightly, and once again attacked a few people, but the strange boatman waved the oars in his hand and hit several people, Zhao Ling's moves were still fierce, so that they didn't find the slightest opportunity!

And at this time, Yang Xing, who was behind the preparation, had already removed all the people who were in the way, dressed in black, only his face was stained with a little blood, and the murderous intent in his eyes was impressive.

As soon as he swung his sword, a strong murderous aura struck, like a net that sent chills down people's backs.

The man in black was attacked on his back, and he had already sensed that there was no chance of victory, so he was ready to give up the target of the assassination and prepare to escape with water.

Just as they dived into the water, Yang Xing made a sword on the surface of the lake, and at the same time, the boatman slapped his oars on the surface of the lake fiercely, and under the pressure of the two internal forces, the people under the water had to surface again, but the moment they jumped out of the water, what awaited them was just a massacre.

The weapons in the hands of the three of them waved, and the black-clothed killer's aura was completely chaotic, and he had no power to fight back, and he was quickly hit by the vital point and sank into the icy lake.

Once again, the surface of the lake was quiet, and in addition to the corpses floating on it, there was also a blood-red water, and the already pungent smell of blood.

The boat slowly stopped shaking, and Wu Yingying slowly opened her eyes at this time, naturally frightened by everything in front of her, and after screaming, she fainted.

Zhao Ling caught her and put her on the boat, he raised his eyes and glanced at the boatman, and asked, "Why did you come here?" How's going on in the capital? ”

The boatman said lightly: "I've been in Qingzhou for a few days, and I've been around you all the time, and I haven't been in touch with you." The things in the capital, the part that should be done for me has been almost done, and I realize that you may need me more here, so I came here! ”

Zhao Ling patted the boatman's shoulder and said, "It's just time for you to come today, otherwise Yang Xing and I wouldn't have escaped so easily!" ”

Yang Xing was a little puzzled and asked, "Who is this?" ”

The boatman tore off the human skin mask on his face and said with a faint smile: "It's me!" ”

"Lin Gongzi!" Yang Xing patted his head, "I should have thought it was yours!" ”

He paused and said, "Shizi, what should I do next?" ”

"Let's send Miss Wu back first!" Zhao Ling said lightly.

"These are sent by Wu Zhitong at this moment?" Yang Xing asked, "Is it dangerous to go back now?" Let's take Miss Wu hostage and leave Qingzhou first! ”

Zhao Ling paused and said: "These assassins were not sent by Wu Zhitong, now is not the time, killing me will not do him any good, but the behavior of these assassins proves my conjecture more and more, no matter what, go back to the mansion first, Wu Zhitong should always give an explanation for this matter!" ”

As soon as a few people returned to the shore, they saw Wu Zhitong's subordinates rushing over with people, and hurriedly said: "We just received the news that the prince met the news here, so the state pastor ordered his subordinates to hurriedly bring people over, fortunately, the prince is safe and sound, and the subordinate guards are late, and I hope the prince will forgive me!" ”

"Get up!" Zhao Ling said lightly, "I don't think today's incident is just an accident, I may need to talk to Lord Wu about this matter!" ”

"Yes!" The subordinates glanced at Wu Yingying, who was supported by Yang Xing, her face changed, and she asked, "Our young lady?" ”

"She's fine, she's just fainted!" Zhao Ling said lightly, "You send her back, she is soaking wet, she needs to change her clothes and rest!" ”

"Yes!"

Immediately, two guards stepped forward to help Wu Yingying over and returned to the mansion first.

The subordinate said anxiously: "The prince will also go back to change his clothes, today's matter, our adults will definitely find out the truth and give the prince an explanation!" ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Ling was silent for a moment and nodded, then smiled again, "Don't be nervous, I believe today's matter has nothing to do with you, Lord Wu!" But since these things have happened, I hope Lord Wu will also pay attention to it! ”
