The palace maid suddenly smiled strangely, and said lazily: "This is the burial place I chose for you, we don't have to go any further." ”

A man's voice.

A flash of horror flashed in Ye Ying's eyes, and then she understood why Ye Qingcheng called her in the middle of the night.

But obviously the emperor was also waiting in the palace, so she dared to kill her?

Ye Ying bit her lip and stared at the person in front of her.

She knew that she couldn't escape, so she tried to negotiate with him, "What kind of reward did Ye Tingcheng give you?" You might as well say it, and I'll probably give more. ”

"Oh?" The man turned his head with interest, his eyes looking her up and down.

He held his chin, "tsk" twice, and shook his head slowly, "Although you are also very beautiful, I still like your sister to be so charming." ”

Ye Ying frowned, "What?" ”

The man snorted, "That's your sister's condition." ”

He licked his lips slightly, and killing intent already appeared in his eyes.

Ye Ying's heart was already full of surprise.

She watched the man walk forward step by step, the dagger already flashed in his hand, and she couldn't help but clench her fists tightly.

There happened to be no patrolling guards around here, and if she shouted for help, she was afraid that she would die faster.

She took a slight step back.

Seeing the man's dissatisfied frown, he said: "Don't move, just stand there obediently, just need a moment, everything will be over, you won't feel pain, if you struggle, I can't help but want to torture you." ”

Ye Ying paused, and her palms were faintly sweating.

When the man saw that she didn't move, he smiled with satisfaction, "How good it is to be so obedient." ”

He approached step by step, with a cruel look in his eyes that played with his prey.

He just wanted to get closer and closer slowly, making the woman in front of him more and more frightened, and finally died in the sound of begging for mercy.

He slowly pursed his lips, and the dagger in his hand shifted direction.

Ye Ying was panicking at the moment, and her chest was also a little violently undulating.

But she gritted her teeth and didn't let herself shout, so she stubbornly stared at the person in front of her.

Just when the person was only one meter away from Ye Ying, a faint sound of breaking the air suddenly came.

In the next moment, a throwing knife flew towards the killer.

His eyes narrowed, and he was forced to take a few steps back, avoiding the flying knife, and then staring closely in a certain direction, and said coldly: "Who! ”

A heavy footstep stepped on his and Ye Ying's hearts.

A man slowly walked out of the darkness.

The outline of the man was a little blurry in the moonlight, but Ye Ying looked at it in a daze, but her eyes were suddenly full of tears.

"You dare to move my people, you are not small."

The cold and familiar voice made Ye Ying tremble uncontrollably.

The figure gradually became clear.

Qi Muyuan's familiar face appeared like this.

Ye Ying's uncontrollable tears flowed down, and she immediately threw herself into his arms.

The temperature in his arms dispelled the cold of Qi Muyuan's body.

He gently patted Ye Ying's back, his expression was extremely soft, "What are you crying about." ”

Ye Ying "whined" twice, and she didn't know what she was talking about.

Qi Muyuan smiled, touched her hair, and looked at the killer.

He raised his eyebrows and slowly raised his sword.

The man's face was cloudy, he glanced at Qi Muyuan, and suddenly turned around and ran.

Qi Muyuan had the heart to chase after him, but he was hugged tightly by the person in his arms, and he couldn't move his steps, so he had to give up.

He patted Ye Ying's back and whispered comfortingly: "Okay, don't cry, when did you become a crybaby?" Well? ”

Ye Ying slowly raised her head, looked at Qi Muyuan through tears, and said with a suffocated mouth, "It's still ...... Good thing you're here. ”

"yes, it's good that I'm here." Qi Muyuan hugged her tightly, and he also felt scared in his heart.

He helped Ye Ying wipe away her tears, and saw that her eyes were red, which was particularly pitiful, "Why did you come out with someone yourself?" I don't have a single guard. ”

"I'm just a guest in the palace, where can I instruct others like this." Ye Ying said with some grievances, "I didn't expect that it was clearly the emperor looking for me, and she Ye Qingcheng would dare to do such a thing." ”

Emperor? Nangong Ming?

Qi Muyuan's eyes were cold, and he patted her back gently, "Don't worry about them, let's go back to see my aunt first, and I'll take you out of the palace early tomorrow morning." ”

"Okay."

Ye Ying nodded obediently, and her eyes were full of Qi Muyuan's figure.

The grievances she has suffered these days, when she saw him, suddenly flooded, making her can't stop her sourness.

Qi Muyuan took her hand, took her to avoid the guards, and headed towards Princess Jingyue's palace.

On the way, Ye Ying's emotions gradually subsided.

She squeezed Qi Muyuan's hand, and said with some doubts: "Why are you here?" Isn't it supposed to be in Xihe? ”

Qi Muyuan smiled, "The army is already on the way back, and the news will probably reach the capital tomorrow, I am worried about you in my heart, and I always feel that something will happen, so I rushed back first." ”

When he returned, he saw that scene.

If he had come a little later, he might never see Ye Ying again.

He shook Ye Ying's hand tightly, and there was a flash of killing intent in his eyes.

He wrote down this account, and if he has the opportunity, he will definitely pay it back.

They went all the way back to Princess Jingyue's palace.

At this moment, Princess Jingyue was worried about Xi'er's words, but as soon as she looked up, she saw the two of them appear together, and her eyes were full of surprise, "You ......"

"Auntie." Qi Muyuan politely called, "I'm afraid that I'm going to bother you tonight." ”

"What is the bother, what is not bothering." Princess Jingyue glanced at him with disgust, "You just treat me here as your own home." ”

She turned her head to look at Ye Ying, and she could vaguely see that she had cried.

She hesitated, but didn't ask more.

Since Qi Muyuan is here, there must be nothing to do.

After Qi Muyuan pulled Ye Ying to sit down, he said to Princess Jingyue: "Auntie, I want to trouble you to send someone to tell the emperor that Ying'er was frightened by the assassination and has come back to rest." ”

"Assassinated!" Princess Jingyue exclaimed, and then after thinking about it, she immediately knew what was going on.

She hurriedly responded for a while, then commanded outside, and then said: "That Ye Chengcheng is so bold, it's really hateful. ”

"This woman, please also ask my aunt to pay more attention to me." Qi Muyuan said coldly, "Sooner or later, I will make her pay." ”

"Don't worry." Princess Jingyue nodded, "Don't say it's you, I can't swallow this breath, I'm protecting Sakura now, and she dares to do it, that's openly provoking me." ”
