Chapter 22: Assassination

On the streets, vendors began to pack their stalls and prepare to go home, and the crowds of people who had gone out to play began to disperse.

Rong Jiuyi sang and danced through the crowd, in a good mood, and Song Moting was following behind him not far away.

In the flow of people, I saw a man with a mask making a gesture towards the darkness, and a loud voice suddenly sounded in the crowd.

"Someone is singing over there, let's go and see it!"

The people who were about to go home began to get agitated when they heard that there was still a play, and ran in the direction of the sound like crazy.

At this moment, Rong Jiu was also squeezed aside because of the flow of the crowd.

"Alas, big brothers and sisters, be careful! Hit me to death! ”

Rong Jiu bowed his head and complained while staying away from the crowd.

finally squeezed out of the crowd, Rong Jiu was so tired that she couldn't breathe, but she didn't have time to rest, because Song Moting was gone!

It's over, my little pavilion doesn't know where it's squeezed! Rong Jiu thought to himself, his anxious eyes constantly searching the crowd.

"Girl, are you looking for the boy who was with you just now?"

Just when Rong Jiu was at a loss, a voice came from his ears.

Rong Jiu turned his head, and it was a middle-aged man who looked like a peddler.

"Yes, big brother, have you seen that?" Rong Jiu hurriedly asked.

"It just so happened that I knew where he was. Shall I show the way for the girl? The man said with a smile, a killing intent inadvertently crossed the corner of his eye.

"Really? Take me there, big brother, you are such a great good person! ”

Rong Jiu didn't think much about it, she just wanted to find Song Moting quickly, because now she didn't know the way back, and when she was alone, she always had some bad premonitions in her heart.

Seeing that Rong Jiu was defenseless, a triumphant smile flashed on the corner of his mouth, and he hurriedly pretended to enthusiastically lead Rong Jiu.

Bypassing four or five alleys, the two of them obviously deviated from the crowd, and the more they walked, the more remote they became, and the bad premonition in Rong Jiu's heart became stronger and stronger.

"Well, big brother, are you sure you're not going the wrong way? How did you go further and further? Rong Jiu poked his head out tentatively and asked the man leading the way in front of him.

The man didn't reply, but stopped, and then Rong Jiu panicked, and her intuition told her that this man was lying to her, and she hurriedly took a few steps back.

"Big, big, big brother, you, you don't want to rob sex, do you?"

Rong Jiu covered his chest with both hands, this man wouldn't have been infatuated by her beauty to trick her into coming here, and he wanted to plot against her! This black light is blinding, and no one comes, what can I do!

The man still didn't speak, just sneered.

"I'm telling you, don't mess around, I'll give you as much money as you want, I, I'm good at martial arts, if you leave now, I can still consider letting you go!"

Rong Jiu shouted at the man, trying to scare him away, she knew in her heart that with her three-legged cat's kung fu, if the other party also knew martial arts, she didn't know if she could beat it, so she couldn't lose the momentum at the moment!

"Hahaha, I don't rob money or sex, I'm here to kill you!" The man gritted his teeth and smiled, then pulled out a dagger from his waist and slowly walked towards Rong Jiu.

It's over!

The deer in Rong Jiu's heart was pounding, who provoked whom with her move, how could she take her life!

"Big brother, big brother, calm down! I have no grievances with you, you shouldn't be looking for the wrong person. ”

The other party pressed forward step by step, and Rong Jiu stepped back step by step.

"It's you who is looking for, let's die!"

As soon as the words fell, the man ran towards Rong Jiu, Rong Jiu hurriedly pulled out the short knife on his waist to defend himself, and when the man was about to approach, a side kick kicked his weapon down, and then knocked him to the ground.

The man obviously didn't expect Rong Jiu to be able to do martial arts, so he didn't have time to guard against it and fell heavily to the ground.

Rong Jiu took the opportunity to run away.

I'm scared to death, so before he gets up, run to a crowded place, and then it will be safe.

Rong Jiu patted his frightened heart while comforting himself.

Seeing that Rong Jiu was about to run, the man hurriedly whistled with his hand, and then, several black-clothed people appeared from the darkness and chased after Rong Jiu.

Oh my god! And so many more! Rong Jiu looked at the dozen or so black-clothed people behind him, and his heart was in his throat.

A little woman, how could she withstand the pursuit of more than a dozen big men, and after a while, Rong Jiu was surrounded.

The other party is all 1.8 meters big man, holding a long sword in his hand, while Rong Jiu only has a short knife, which can't be beaten no matter what.

Am I really going to die here? Rong Jiu thought to himself, I haven't caught up with Song Moting yet, I haven't lived enough, I don't want to die!

"Give up struggling, you can't run away." The man with the mask walked out of the corner, and the coldness on his body made Rong Jiu shudder.

Rong Jiu always felt that this aura was similar, but he couldn't remember it.

"Even if it's death, I have to die to understand, who sent you to kill me, and I didn't offend anyone?" Rong Jiuqiang pretended to be calm and asked at the masked man.

She just wanted to delay a little time now and wait for Song Moting to come and save her.

And here, after Song Moting found that Rong Jiu was missing, he also hurriedly took the secret guard to look around.

"I'm sorry I can't tell you, you didn't offend anyone, the fault is the fault, you shouldn't have come to Youzhou." The masked man said slowly.

What is this? If you dare to love her, you have to die when you come to Youzhou? What a crooked reason this is.

"Big brother, let's have something to discuss, I don't think you're an unreasonable person......"

"Don't delay, no one will save you." The man saw through Rong Jiu's mind at a glance.

Now Rong Jiu's only hope is gone!

"Who said no one saved her?"

Just as Rong Jiu closed his eyes in despair, a familiar voice came from behind him.

Rong Jiu opened her eyes happily, only to find that the person who came was Song Moci, whom she had always hated.

"Xiao Jiu'er, don't be afraid, I will protect you."

Song Moci walked to Rong Jiu's side in a flash, patted her on the shoulder and comforted her.

Rong Jiu's eyes were a little moist, and her pounding heart quieted down when she heard the words to protect her, she didn't expect that the first person to find her was him.

"Do you think you can beat so many of us?" The masked man sneered.

"You'll have to try it to find out."

Song Moci still looks like a hanger, but this is the way he looks, and at this moment, in Rong Jiu's opinion, he suddenly feels a little handsome.

"Xiao Jiu'er, you obediently hide behind you, close your eyes, don't be scared."

Rong Jiu obediently hid behind him, and the masked man gave an order, and more than a dozen black-clothed people brandished their long swords and attacked Song Moci.

Rong Jiu held his little face with both hands, and although he was a little scared, he couldn't help but secretly observe it from between his fingers.

Song Moci is obviously not a vegetarian, although there are many people on the other side, but he still can't take advantage of him, and within a few rounds, the other party is either seriously injured and falls to the ground, or they all die.

Rong Jiu watched the bright red blood spurting out from his neck, and the air was full of a strong smell of blood, only to feel that his stomach was constantly tumbling, disgusting but terrifying.

It was the first time she had seen someone kill when she was so big, and it was so close that she could clearly hear the other party's desperate and painful moans.

If it weren't for Song Moci, she must have fallen to the ground at this moment! Rong Jiu only felt that his feet were a little weak, and he suddenly sat down on the ground.

Seeing that he was defeated, the masked man hurriedly joined the battle, and unlike other little minions, the masked man's martial arts were on par with Song Moci's.

"There's a voice ahead, come with me!"

Not far away, the voices of officers and soldiers were faintly heard, and when the masked man saw this, he knocked him to the ground with a palm while Song Mo was not paying attention, and then brandished his long sword and attacked Rong Jiu.

"Xiao Jiu'er!"

Song Moci roared as hard as he could, struggling to get up.

"Ahh Rong Jiu wanted to escape, but her feet couldn't be used at all, so she could only cover her eyes and wait desperately for death to come, but in the end, she still couldn't escape death.

The masked man came to Rong Jiu's body, his long sword raised high, and he could obviously stab directly towards the vital point, but he seemed to be hesitating about something.

The officers and soldiers in the distance got closer and closer, and finally, he put away his sword, jumped onto the roof, and disappeared into the night.

"Xiao Jiu'er, are you okay?"

Song Moci hurriedly ran over and hugged Rong Jiu in his arms.

Rong Jiu was still a little frightened, when she raised her head and saw that the person in front of her was Song Moci, she couldn't hold back the fear in her heart anymore, and cried in his arms.

"Woo woo woo ~ scared me to death, I thought I was going to die!"

"Xiao Jiu'er, don't worry, I will never let you encounter this kind of thing again in the future." Song Moci promised, his eyes were full of distress, fortunately he chased after him at the time, otherwise the consequences were really unimaginable.

Rong Jiu's assassination was immediately spread to the palace, Rong Le, Rong Xian and others were so frightened that they didn't have time to say goodbye to Song Mian, and ran all the way out of the palace, but fortunately, Rong Jiu was brought back safely by Song Mo's resignation.

Looking at their little princess's frightened appearance, the two of them blamed themselves and felt distressed in their hearts.

When Rong Jiuyi saw his brothers, he couldn't help but hide in their arms and cry again.

That night, Rong Wan strengthened the guards again, and Song Mian was also frightened by this incident, and his heart couldn't settle down all night, Mo Ningshu was not there, so he could only send more people to search the whole city.

This night, the whole city was sleepless.

On Xu Hua Street, in a small wooden house in a remote corner, Yu'er was sitting at a small wooden table, although she couldn't see it, she still lit two candles.

The faint candlelight was incompatible with the night, and with a babbling sound, the wooden door was pushed open, and Yu'er raised her head happily and asked, "Is Childe back?" ”

"Hmm."

Fuyu took off the mask on his face, gently put it aside, and took out a small box of delicately packaged pastries from his sleeve and put it in Yu'er's hand, his cold eyes gradually replaced by gentleness.

"Now, this is a special gift for you, your favorite peach blossom crisp, it's still hot."

"Thank you, Childe!" Yu'er smiled happily.

"Let's eat!"

Fuyu rubbed Yu'er's head and said with a light smile.

Rong Yuanneiβ€”β€”

Rong Jiu finished washing and shrunk into the quilt, her body was still cold.

Ah Mu stayed aside, if this happened, she didn't want to leave Rong Jiu for a moment.

She thought that with Song Moting guarding, Rong Jiu would definitely be fine, so she waited at home in peace, who would have thought that there would be an assassin, she would have known this, she must have secretly followed behind.

At the moment, I am also blaming myself.

"Amu, what's going on over there in Xiaotingting, is he okay?"

Although he knew that the other party's target was him, Rong Jiu was still more concerned about how Song Moting was doing, and whether he was in danger after being dispersed by the crowd.

"Don't worry, princess, the eldest prince is safe, I just came over to make amends to the prince, I wanted to come to see the princess, but the eldest prince was afraid of disturbing you, so he asked him to go back first."

"Huh?"

Rong Jiu had a sad little face, how could the eldest brother be like this, as long as it was Song Moting, it didn't matter if it disturbed her!

No, I'll have to talk to my brothers tomorrow, or their happiness will be ruined!

"Amu, what should I do if I can't sleep?"

As soon as she closed her eyes, her eyes were full of images of those people dying, and the smell of blood seemed to linger between her mouth and nose.

"It's okay princess, Amu will always be here to guard you!"

Ah Mu held Rong Jiu's cold little hand tightly and said firmly.
