When Gu Xiqian ran to the back garden, she saw that the assassin was already behind her and ready to make a move.

"Hmph, you've been tricked!"

Just when the assassin was surprised, he saw Gu Xiqian take out a white thing from his waist, the assassin felt wrong, and when he was about to step forward, he saw her throw it hard, only to see a cloud of white smoke rise, and after a while, the assassin felt a little dizzy, and then cracked and retreated.

When he came to a wall, he saw soldiers around him and surrounded him.

Gu Xiqian and Liuyun walked out of the crowd, looked at the assassin and asked, "Did Lin Yiliu send you over?" ”

The assassin looked at them, sneered, and saw that as soon as he stretched out his hand, the hidden weapon flew out of his sleeve, and Liuyun immediately drew his sword to block it.

"Capture the man!"

Just when the soldiers stepped forward to take each other down, they saw a figure standing on the wall, looking straight at Gu Xiqian, and then drew their swords and jumped down, swinging their swords and stabbing at Gu Xiqian.

Liuyun immediately pushed Gu Xiqian away, only to see the assassin's long sword stabbed Liuyun in the left shoulder.

"Cover me!" The Assassin shouted.

Seeing that the assassin who was not surrounded immediately took out a few black projectiles from his hand and threw them on the ground, only to see a few sounds that injured the surrounding soldiers.

Listening to the voice of a woman who was the assassin just now, Gu Xiqian couldn't help but remember that Mo Xuanyin had said that Lin Yiliu had reached out at that time, and immediately thought that she had made a move in person.

Gu Xiqian turned around and ran, and Liuyun immediately stopped the other party, but before he was injured, he was knocked to the ground in a few clicks.

Seeing that the Shizi Mansion was no longer safe, Gu Xiqian immediately ran outside.

At that time, Liuyun told himself that if the situation really reached the point where he couldn't control it, he would leave the Shizi Mansion and then release fireworks, and someone would come to protect him at that time.

After leaving the Shizi Mansion, Gu Xiqian immediately ran up, and at this time, she saw Lin Yiliu chasing after her with light skills.

"It's time!"

Fireworks were taken out from behind and immediately released into the sky.

"Bang!"

Lin Yiliu looked at the fireworks in the sky, and immediately swung his sword and slashed at Gu Xiqian.

"Boom!"

Just when the long sword was still a few points away from Gu Xiqian, I saw that the big knife suddenly slashed towards Lin Yiliu.

Lin Yiliu immediately retracted, but the long sword couldn't stop the power of the big sword, and the whole person took a few steps back.

"Who?" Lin Yiliu asked in surprise.

I saw a man walk out, and the horizontal knife was only pointed at the person in front of him.

"Is it really that good for you to hunt down a woman? Or what do you want to do to the people in the prince's house? ”

Looking at the other party who was the son of the world, Lin Yiliu snorted coldly: "I have only one goal, if you get out of the way, I can let you go." ”

The other party also laughed and responded: "If you go back now, I can spare you from dying, and for the sake of seeing that you are a woman, I can also be a little lighter." ”

Faced with the man's provocation, Lin Yiliu stopped talking and swung his sword at the man in front of him.

"Don't worry, county lord, with me, I guarantee that no one can hurt you!"

Seeing the man swing the knife, Lin Yiliu was stunned, the back of the big knife in front of him was heavy, and it was very difficult to even lift it up and swing it alone, why was the person in front of him so easy to use, and even looked at it with ease.

But even so, Lin Yiliu was still not worried, and the figure of the person wielding such a heavy knife was not sensitive enough, so he strode around the other party and swung his sword straight at Gu Xiqian behind the other party.

"Insect carving skills."

As soon as the man stepped back, the big knife suddenly swung towards Lin Yiliu, and the other party's reaction was faster than she imagined, and this person was directly mounted on the knife edge.

However, it was too late to stop his steps at this time, and Lin Yiliu immediately blocked in front of him with a horizontal sword.

"Boom!"

With an exchange of blows, I saw Lin Yiliu's figure stop, and the man then kicked her in the stomach, and the whole person suddenly fell to the ground.

"Uh..."

The man put away the big knife, looked at the person in front of him and said: "That kick just now has already caused you internal injuries, if you continue, I'm afraid you will hurt your internal organs, I advise you, it's still too late to leave." ”

Of course, Lin Yiliu would not believe the words of the person in front of him, and his body moved, as if he had bypassed the other party.

"Good body, but..."

Seeing that the other party had bypassed him, the man sneered, took a step, and slashed at Gu Xiqian.

When Lin Yiliu swung his sword and stabbed directly, he was suddenly blocked by the thick blade of the sword, and the whole person was shocked back.

"That's it."

I saw the man holding the knife in his backhand, and the heavy back of the knife slashed at the person in front of him.

"Boom!"

Lin Yiliu was defeated suddenly, even the long sword was broken, and the whole person was immediately shocked back.

"Aren't you leaving?"

Just when Lin Yiliu wanted to continue, he saw that his stomach suddenly hurt, so he had no choice but to leave.

"County Lord, my subordinates are late to save the car, please forgive me!"

"It's okay, I'll go back quickly."

However, the man said that he had something to do and left alone.

After returning to the Shizi Mansion, he saw that the soldiers inside had already taken down the assassin.

"Take it away, torture to extract a confession!" Gu Xiqian said excitedly.

After several days of interrogation, the other party finally confessed.

He was a person from Lanling Kingdom, and he came to Nanyue with his companions at that time, but he didn't expect that his princess had become Princess Xiang, but just when they thought that their princess was content with the status quo, they saw her say her plan.

They planned to use Gu magic to control the emperor, and then use their witchcraft to disrupt the government of Nanyue, and then take advantage of the civil strife to send troops in an attempt to take Nanyue in one fell swoop.

Just when they were actively making moves, they were accidentally bumped into by Gu Xiqian and Mo Xuanyin, and they were taken down before they could get everything out.

learned from the other party's mouth that Lin Yiliu was the princess of Lanling Kingdom, and she had planned to enter the palace to confuse the emperor, but she became Princess Xiang by mistake, and in order to take revenge on Nanyue Kingdom, there was the current thing.

Thinking that all this was done by Lin Yiliu, Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, there is no reason why King Xiang should not know these things, is King Xiang involved in these things?

However, all this happened too suddenly, and Gu Xiqian reacted for a while, so she had to wait for tomorrow to go to Xiangwang's Mansion to question.

Looking at the people in her hands because of this incident, Gu Xiqian was a little sad, but more than that, she was angry with them.

The next day, Gu Xiqian came to Xiangwang's Mansion in person, and as soon as she entered the door, she met Gu Miaoxuan and walked out, looking at her appearance, Gu Xiqian suddenly became angry.

However, before the other party could make a difficulty, Gu Miaoxuan immediately opened her mouth and scolded: "Is my mother's illness a good thing you did?" ”

Gu Xiqian was a little inexplicable, it was her mother who came to kill herself last night, and she withdrew if she couldn't beat herself, did she do something wrong?

But now he didn't want to argue with her, but walked directly around her to the study where King Xiang was.

When she opened the door, she saw King Xiang reading calmly inside, and when he looked at Gu Xiqian, his face seemed surprisingly calm, as if he expected her to come back to find him.

"Here you are, sit down." King Xiang waved his hand to the chair beside him.

Gu Xiqian didn't sit down, but asked, "Do you already know about last night's incident?" Why would you shield them? ”

Listening to the tone of her voice, King Xiang was a little helpless, so he stood up and walked to the door.

"Didn't I tell you to stop looking into it? Why are you still so obsessed? ”

"That's about the government of Nanyue, Dad, do you want to watch Nanyue be buried in their hands like this?" Gu Xiqian asked hoarsely.

"If that's the case, I can't help it." King Xiang bowed his head and said.

At this time, it was Gu Xiqian's turn to be stunned, why couldn't he do it? And she probably knew about them a long time ago, but she didn't stop them, and even defended them many times, which made her a little puzzled.

However, he still didn't give himself an explanation, just kept telling her not to investigate this matter anymore, is there any secret in this that she doesn't know?

"Dad, you must know that fornicating with the enemy country is a great crime, do you just watch yourself fall into this abyss?" Gu Xiqian asked.

"I can't help it, but I can assure you that if I could, I wouldn't want to."

Gu Xiqian was simply confused, could he have other ideas?

"Xi Qian, if you believe me, just listen to me, don't investigate, it's not good for you." King Xiang said helplessly.

"No, if you tell me what the reason is, I will definitely investigate this matter, don't you know that she even came to the Shizi Mansion to kill me last night, do you feel sorry for me?"

I saw that King Xiang's face was a little ugly, but after a while, he changed and recovered, "I'm sorry, but in order to investigate the truth about your mother's year, I have to continue." ”

The truth about my mother's time?

Gu Xiqian was a little puzzled, didn't her mother die of illness back then? Why does my father now say that he wants to investigate the truth?

Seeing that Gu Xiqian is so stubborn now, King Xiang reluctantly said what happened back then.

"Back then, your mother died of a sudden illness, at that time I felt that things were not so simple, and even thought that it was her hand, but at that time, the emperor blindly stopped me, I had no choice, so I had to investigate secretly, and found that their purpose was the emperor, and a long time ago, they had already used Gu magic to control the emperor, I had no choice." King Xiang said helplessly.

"In other words, the cause of my mother's death was something else?" Gu Xiqian was surprised.

"However, when the emperor stopped me, I had no choice but to investigate secretly, all these years, I am..."

Gu Xiqian didn't expect that there would be so many things after all this.
