Chapter 153: Late Night Killing
Two days later, the group finally arrived at the Great Huguo Temple.
Because of the relationship between Chu Yi's eyebrows and the gray imprint, Shen Shu changed his previous attitude of ignoring and began to care about the itinerary, and went to check on King Yi's condition from time to time.
Not for anything else.
Just because she found out—
Obviously, everyone has decided not to enter Beijing within three days, but the incense ash mark in the heart of King Yi's eyebrows has not dissipated.
With each passing hour, the ash mark becomes shorter and shorter at a rate visible to the naked eye.
This means that the fate of death has not been reversed.
Shen Shu had to be on guard at all times for possible changes in the itinerary.
However, her "courteous" behavior had a different meaning in the eyes of Feiyun and Feiyu.
Feiyun: "Miss Shen has finally opened her mind, I have to stare at His Highness's face for a while from time to time in the past two days, I see, this is thinking that after returning to Beijing, I will be separated from His Highness, and I am reluctant!" ”
Fei Yu: "Nothing to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief." This girl's eyes are burning like a wolf, first inquired about His Highness's hidden illness, and then delayed the trip, and now she is still so intoxicated, I have to keep it all right, and I can't let His Highness be taken advantage of in vain. ”
Shen Shu didn't know that his behavior, in the eyes of others, was distorted like this.
She just kept an eye on the weather—
On the night of the day when they stayed at the Great Huguo Temple, it suddenly rained heavily.
By the morning of the second day, the rain had not stopped, but had become heavier and heavier.
In such weather, Shen Shu looked at Chu Yi's eyebrows, only half of the incense ash mark remained, and finally sensed that something was wrong.
She hurriedly asked Feiyun: "This is the Great Huguo Temple, but is the only way for us to enter Beijing from the west?" ”
"Exactly."
Feiyun replied inexplicably: "The Great Huguo Temple is just in the western suburbs of the capital, and the official road is only this one, why did the girl suddenly ask about this?" ”
Shen Shu's heart sank.
"If you follow your original plan, you would have stopped at the Dahuguo Temple last night and returned to Beijing early this morning, right? Now listen to me, postpone the trip, and it's just a one-night stop here, and it becomes a two-night stop here, but that's it? ”
Feiyun nodded: "Your Highness has always liked the quiet scenery of this Huguo Temple, and every time you go back to Beijing from the north, you have to stay in the Huguo Temple for one night. Even this small courtyard is specially set up for His Royal Highness by Huguo Temple. It's a small and secluded place, so it's best to stay here for two days. ”
When Shen Shu heard this, her face instantly turned pale.
suffered, she did everything she could, but she didn't expect to send the sheep into the tiger's mouth!
If she expected, this great protectorate must be an ambush point for the assassins.
It's really better to count people than to be counted by heaven.
She never expected that even if she didn't intervene in the original trip, it would be heavy rain and delay the trip!
"Now that we are going down the mountain, is it too late to rush back to Beijing?" Shen Shu hurriedly asked.
Feiyun hurriedly shook his head: "Absolutely not. The rain has been falling all night, and it has not stopped until now, and the road down the mountain is already muddy, His Highness is unconscious, and the carriage cannot get down the mountain at all. ”
These words made Shen Shu's heart sink to the bottom in an instant.
Between the electric light and flint -
Thinking of something, she suddenly looked at Feiyun and Feiyu's faces.
Their faces were clean, and there was not the slightest trace of incense ash.
Not only them, but even the eyebrows of the shadow guard, Mr. Dusk, and even the third brother Shen Jinming who accompanied him this time were all clean and clean, without the slightest trace of incense ash.
This means that—
This time, the fate of King Yi's death, the other party is not a large-scale interception.
It's really an assassination of King Yi alone.
The news that King Yi was unconscious, they kept it secret, and it was impossible for anyone to know.
If he is awake, I am afraid that it will be difficult for anyone in the whole world to kill King Yi without alarming others.
Unless......
They use poison!
Thinking of this, Shen Shu's face changed and changed.
Finally, she made up her mind and said to Feiyun and Feiyu: "I'm afraid something will happen tonight, I'll stay in His Highness's room." ”
Feiyun: ......
Remex:......
Feiyun and Feiyu unconsciously had a little contempt on their faces.
"Girl, this must not be done." Feiyun cleared his throat and said: "The Great Huguo Temple is the Emperor Temple, a pure place for Buddhism, and you must not do anything indecent, so as not to blaspheme the gods." ”
Fei Yu had a look I knew would be like this.
He stood in front of the bed and said to Shen Shu: "The girl's little abacus of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix, it's better to save it, as long as I am here, no one will want to blaspheme His Highness's finger!" ”
It wasn't until this moment that Shen Shu understood what King Yi's two personal guards were thinking.
She laughed angrily, and was about to go back unceremoniously—
However, she suddenly thought of something, and her apricot eyes rolled slightly.
"If so, so be it. Don't regret it. ”
After saying this lightly, she took a deep look at the two of them and strode out of the room.
This time, Feiyun and Feiyu glanced at each other, tacitly and smiled absently.
Could it be that they want to protect His Highness's innocence, can they still be wrong?

"Boom-boom-"
It's night.
It rained so hard for a whole day that it seemed like the sky was going to fall.
Lightning bolts, fangs and claws on the window lattice, cast hideous shadows on the trees.
The earth-shattering thunder stirred people's hearts to beat and jump, and they couldn't live in peace.
Shen Shu and Yi lay on the inside of the bed, covered in the quilt.
On the same bed, outside the quilt, Chu Yi, who didn't know anyone, was lying quietly with his eyes closed.
The curtain hung down densely, and the small space isolated the wind and rain outside, and only the shallow breathing of the two people was left quietly.
It was supposed to be a picture of reverie.
And yet, at this moment—
Shen Shu didn't dare to take a breath.
She clutched the life-saving thing in her palm, and her eyes stared at the center of the Shining King's eyebrows without blinking.
Through the light that struck in by lightning, she could vaguely see that the incense ash mark on King Yi's eyebrows was almost at the end.
This also means that the assassin is about to do it!
During the day, she returned to her room, angry, but she couldn't do anything but ignored the matter.
Especially, when she found out that everyone's fast dinner at night was added to the dream butterfly grass that could not be detected at all, not only Feiyun and Feiyu, but even Mr. Twilight, who was proficient in medical skills, did not notice it at all.
This means that either in their team or in the Huguo Temple, there must be internal ghosts that will make everyone lose their guard like this.
The stakes are very high, and Shen Shu does not dare to take it lightly.
Now the king is unconscious, and the road down the mountain is so muddy that the carriage cannot move at all, and even if the rain stops tomorrow, they may not be able to leave.
Dahuguo Temple is a royal temple, and those who dare to poison King Yi in the imperial temple must have an unusual identity.
Before King Yi woke up, he was protected by these shadow guards, and he was afraid that he would not be able to resist the other party's killing moves.
It's better to just count it.
Let the other party really "poison" the Yi King, so that at least the Yi King can be turned into the dark, and before he wakes up, he will not encounter a bigger interception.
After weighing it, Shen Shu called Ying Wu and his brother aside, and gave such and such an order, setting up a situation for tonight......
