The night market, which had been bustling with activity not long ago, was now eerily quiet, with the sound of swords clashing in the streets, a faint smell of rust, and a slashed front outside the teahouse curled up on the ground and sprinkled a few drops of scorching red.

Then there was a gust of wind, and the black clouds obscured the half-curved moon. At this time, when I first arrived in Hai, Shengjing Xicheng was suddenly enveloped by an eerie coolness.

Zhuo Yuanan and Ah Zhao protected Wei Ning one after the other, and Chen Hanfei hid behind Wei Ning. Dozens of men in black with weapons in their hands surrounded them.

Zhuo Yuanan took out a close-fitting soft sword from his waist and winked at Ah Zhao: "Ah Zhao, eat and drink enough, I just want to learn from you, and the current situation is exactly what I want." Would you like to give it a try? ”

Ah Zhao threw Wei Ning something, then stared around, and drew his sword neatly. Just when Zhuo Yuanan thought he wouldn't answer, he asked, "How can you compare?" ”

"It's very simple, listening to their steps, they should be considered a middle master, it's better than the head, see who solves it in the end." Zhuo Yuanan said, and had already raised his sword to meet him.

"Yes."

Wei Ningwen held the thing in his hand tightly, and his eyes were clear. In contrast, Chen Hanfei was clutching her clothes, terrified to death. He is now feeling that his luck is bad today, he should check the yellow calendar before going out, the beauty is not in hand, not to mention, the little life is about to end.

Chen Hanfei noticed Wei Ning's eyes and hurriedly let go of his hand. Then he coughed lightly twice, and said unnaturally: "A-Ning, don't worry, for the sake of the past, this son will protect you." ”

Wei Ning looked at him deeply. "Okay, do you have any fire folds on you?"

"Bring..."Chen Hanfei took out a fire fold from his sleeve and handed it to her. "What are you going to do?" ”

At this time, a man in black slowly approached from behind Chen Hanfei with a knife, Wei Ning was startled, and pushed him aside with all his strength, and the fire fold fell to the ground.

The man in black sneaked up and attacked Wei Ning with a knife, Wei Ning slowly retreated, and touched the only hairpin on his head with one hand. She suddenly took off her veil and threw it into the air, and then bent her eyebrows and smiled, as if a flower had suddenly bloomed in this bloody killing field.

The man in black was stunned, and the eyes exposed by the mask could not hide the amazement.

At this time, Wei Ning quickly dodged forward, and before he could react, the golden hairpin had accurately pierced his heart, and his eyes were full of unbelievable horror.

Wei Ning didn't let go, and pressed the golden hairpin harder, her eyes were ruthless until the golden hairpin was all gone, leaving only a delicately carved dragon head. Sure he was dead, she pulled out her hairpin.

Wei Ning held the hairpin and breathed a sigh of relief, she saw the fire fold that rolled to the ground, and then hurriedly went over to pick it up. As soon as he raised his eyes, he saw Chen Hanfei looking at her in surprise not far away, and several people in black walked in his direction. She hurriedly shouted: "Yuan'an! ”

Chen Hanfei was frightened by Wei Ning's clean and neat murderous blow, he saw all the scenes just now, he felt that his life in the first ten years seemed to be in vain, how could he have seen Wei Ning from childhood to size.

Just thinking about it, I was hugged without paying attention, and a strong manly atmosphere came to my face. Chen Hanfei felt that his nose was about to be crooked, and he looked up angrily and saw a familiar face.

Zhuo Yuanan lifted the soft sword to repel several black-clothed people, protected him behind him and said, "Have you lived enough, don't you know how to hide?" ”

Chen Hanfei lowered his head and didn't speak, not knowing what he was thinking.

Ah Zhao struggled to repel the enemy in front of him and flew to Wei Ning's side, he glanced at the blood stains on Wei Ning's hands, and a trace of unknown emotion flashed in his eyes. "Princess, your subordinates are not well protected."

"It's okay, I don't blame you." Wei Ning blew up the fire fold and lit the signal flare in his hand. A bright light 'whoosh' rose into the night sky, fireworks bloomed in the dark and quiet night, everyone looked up at the light, but at this moment everyone had different thoughts in their hearts.

Wei Ning said slowly: "Without a stick of incense, they should be here." ”

She looked around, and now there were only about twenty or so black-clothed people left on the street, and she instructed Ah Zhao: "Their target is obviously me, remember to keep two alive." ”

Zhao: "Yes. ”

At this time, a man in black said in a deep voice: "Withdraw!" After hearing this, the rest of the people did not have the slightest love for the slightest, and fled directly in the opposite direction.

Wei Ning frowned. If you want to go, it's not that easy. "Ah Zhao, be sure to catch two alive."

Ah Zhao looked at Zhuo Yuanan, and the other party immediately gave him a reassuring look. and waved his hand and shouted, "Don't worry, Xiao Ningning has handed it over to me." ”

Ah Zhao took advantage of his light skills and chased after the man in black alone.

Zhuo Yuanan came slowly with Chen Hanfei, and in a moment he changed his usual hippie smiling face, and said in a rare and serious manner: "Your Majesty, this matter is too strange and must be strictly investigated!" ”

Wei Ning's eyes swept over the corpses on the ground one by one, and countless information in her mind turned over, and she walked slowly, and she didn't notice that her skirt was stained with blood. Her face was expressionless, and a thick fog spread in her eyes. "The target is me, but they don't want to kill me..."

"As if just to warn, or rather to admonish..."

"Imperial Sister... Imperial Sister...", a shout came from not far away, interrupting her thoughts.

Wei Yu's eyes were bloodstained, many corpses were lying on the ground, her heart was full of fear, and the moment she saw Wei Ning, her beating heart calmed down. She didn't care if her posture was inappropriate, and desperately ran to Wei Ning's side. "Sister Huang, are you okay? I just heard that there are assassins here, are you late..."

Wei Ning saw her sister's anxious appearance, and a warm current surged in her heart, she smiled and touched Wei Yu's head: "Don't worry, I'm fine." ”

Zhuo Yuanan and Chen Hanfei knew Wei Yu's identity, and hurriedly saluted: "Participate in the princess!" ”

Wei Yu also recognized Zhuo Yuanan's identity: "This is not the Hou Shizi of Huainan?" She looked at Chen Hanfei on the side hesitantly, "Who is this?" ”

Wei Ning: "The grandson of the Chen family, Chen Hanfei." ”

Wei Yu nodded, noncommittal.

Wei Ning looked at Wei Yan, who was a step behind her, her eyes suddenly became dark, she bent down and tore off a piece of cloth from the corpse on the ground, slowly wiped the blood stained by the golden hairpin, and then reinserted it into her hair. said to Wei Yan: "Uncle Huang is so Yaxing, I only go out of the palace once in a while, but I happened to meet it." ”

Wei Yan approached and saluted her: "Your Majesty is frightened, Weichen can't escape the blame, Shengjing's defense seems to need to be strengthened." ”

Wei Ning said lightly: "Uncle Huang, please get up, it's not Uncle Huang's fault, I will find out about this matter, and it's not too late to hold you accountable at that time." ”

The sound of horses' hooves came from a distance, and Wei Ning looked in the direction of the imperial city and said softly: "The Praetorian Guard has come, and the next aftermath will be handed over to the imperial uncle." ”

Wei Yan replied yes, Zhuo Yuanan and Chen Hanfei, who had never had the opportunity to salute, finally found the opportunity to salute Wei Yan in a regular manner.

Under the moonlight, the iron-armored silver spear glowed with white light, and in the night, he only saw the first horse and the white clothes fluttering in the wind, his gaze was fixed in one place, and the sound of horses' hooves seemed to step on everyone, so he slowly walked into their eyes.

The most surprised was Chen Hanfei, he never thought that he would meet that person again in such a situation. Providence makes people careless, and does not care about the opinions of those involved.

Until the sound of the horse's hooves arrived, the man dismounted neatly, the white clothes crossed an arc in the air, he threw the horsewhip to the ground, passed past Chen Hanfei, and walked straight to Wei Ning's side. "Weichen is late to save the car, please punish Your Majesty!"

Even if he was kneeling, his body was still so cold that people could only watch from a distance and dare not invade.

Wei Ning's eyes moved slightly, and he chuckled: "In the middle of the night, don't blame Ji Xiang for disturbing your good dreams." Hurry up. ”

Ji Yan only said: "It can't be compared with Your Majesty's safety." ”

Chen Hanfei looked at the two of them strangely, he hadn't seen them for a few years, how these two people had become more and more alienated, it was very strange.

Wei Ning looked thoughtfully at the horse that Ji Yan was riding: "The Praetorian Guard is also about to arrive, leave the rest to the imperial uncle, Ji Xiang might as well send the princess back to the imperial city for me, and... Borrow your horse. ”

Wei Yu pulled her clothes and said pitifully, "Sister Huang, I... I want to go back with you..."She really doesn't want to go back with the Prime Minister...

Wei Ning gave her a look, and Wei Yu, who was looking directly, felt numb in her heart and didn't dare to say a word.

Wei Ning picked up the horsewhip on the ground, then grabbed the reins and turned over on the horse. She turned around, and said to Zhuo Yuanan as if she remembered something: "Ah Zhao came back and asked him to go back to the palace to see me." ”

The men watched her ride away.

Zhuo Yuanan laughed dryly: "Ji Xiang's horse doesn't recognize life..."

Ji Yan didn't say anything, and he didn't know what he remembered.

——————

The west gate of the imperial city.

The gate guards look extraordinarily energetic, for no other reason, the fireworks that bloomed just now are unique to the Imperial City Forbidden Army, and in the morning His Majesty went out in micro-clothes, and only a few Ximen guards knew about it. The fireworks bombs startled a few of them into a cold sweat, and there was only one thought in their minds, could it be that something happened to His Majesty?

There was already a team of forbidden troops out of the palace, and they didn't dare to be sloppy anymore, so they guarded the door with a twelve-point spirit. However, there have always been many officials in the palace who have come to question, and they can only send them away first, and wait for His Majesty to return to the palace to deal with it.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and one of the guards suddenly said solemnly: "There is a sound of horses' hooves, someone is coming!" ”

The person on the other side was careless: "Come here, come here, as for the fuss." ”

The forbidden army who spoke first knocked him on the hilt of his sword and said fiercely: "You have good eyes, open your eyes for a while, and see who it is." ”

"Got it!" The kid touched his head and bared his teeth and said, "It's really ruthless." ”

The sound of the horse's hooves was very close, and before the boy could take a closer look, the white horse neighed and jumped into the imperial city. Then a token dropped.

The kid reacted immediately, lifted his sword, and said murderously: "Who is coming?" Trespass on the Imperial City, don't count killing! ”

A group of praetorian troops heard his words and immediately stopped the horses.

The other gatekeeper picked up the token, and when he read the words on it, he couldn't help but feel excited. Hurriedly knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty, forgive your subordinates for being clumsy and ignorant of Long Yan." ”

When everyone heard this, they were all shocked, and they all knelt down in fear to plead guilty.

Wei Ning turned over and dismounted, took the token from the guard, didn't say a word, and left directly.

After not hearing an answer for a long time, they quietly looked up, but saw only a horse shining silver in the moonlight, and there was still a human figure anywhere.

One said: "What can we do about this, we are upsetting Your Majesty, right?" ”

The Zhonglang of the Ximen Forbidden Army is a poor disciple who has just taken office, and he frowned and said, "Let's get up, and put this horse in place for now." When the Lord Commander returns, I'll go and plead again. ”

They all got up and went to their original positions, and the two young janissaries went to pull the reins of the horses, and the horses snorted at them, and one of them said, "Yo, this horse has a good temper..."

When Zhonglang heard it, he said sternly: "This is Ji Xiang's mount, be careful!" ”

When the two forbidden soldiers heard this, their backs instantly coldened.
