There was a slight glint in the general's eyes, inadvertently revealing some unfavorable emotions.

Sure enough, Ling's matter can still affect the general's heart! Emperor Chao couldn't help but sigh in his heart, this temptation was also very worthwhile, at least he had some idea of how to control the general.

The corners of Chaohuang's mouth were slightly raised, and he raised his hands and patted them.

Then, a boy who looked to be in his teens was brought in. The general looked at the boy's figure, his brows furrowed slightly, and he was a little frightened in his heart, could it be that this emperor is really controlled by someone?

The boy raised his head when he first appeared, but when he saw the emperor, he instantly lowered his head and trembled.

If you look at it now, with this trembling look, who would believe that this is a descendant of the martial arts sect Ling clan, and there is no momentum that the son of the Ling family should have.

"Lift your head up." The emperor looked serious and ordered directly.

For a chess piece, he naturally has no reason to be polite.

Moreover, what he was looking forward to more was Ling's performance, after all, the young man's appearance was ......

Although Ling was very skeptical in his heart, he couldn't help but look at it. But just one glance, she trembled all over, like chaff.

The moment the two of them met their eyes, she couldn't help but exclaim, it was too similar, it was too similar.

Those watery eyes, soft and sharp. Although the momentum is still a few points behind, it can be regarded as the appearance of some descendants of the Ling clan.

Ling Shi looked at the general with a panicked expression, shook his head and bit his lips, and pulled the other party's sleeves tightly with both hands, completely unable to sit still.

It's just that this expression fell in the eyes of the emperor, in exchange for a mockery on his face.

Emperor Chao had a hypocritical smile on his face, as if he was understanding the Ling family, and said softly: "Please come forward and take a look, if it is a child of the Ling Mansion, I can be regarded as accumulating virtue and doing good." ”

This is clearly a sanctimonious performance!

The general was resentful in his heart, but he was helpless, but he only strengthened his heart to no longer follow the emperor.

"The Emperor's Statement!" The ministers listened to the emperor's words and flattered the proposal, believing that the only way to survive at this time was to flatter the emperor.

Moreover, they don't know what's going on between them. As for why he is still here, he just cares about his own life.

The general saw Ling's helplessness and patted the back of her hand lightly, as if to give her courage.

Ling took a deep breath, then staggered over to the child, nodding softly at him.

It's just that the kid was too frightened to move, so many pairs of eyes stared at him, and there were still people who came to check his identity, and the ignorant and helpless young man could only stare at Ling with a pair of rabbit eyes.

"Don't be afraid." After smiling and comforting, Ling continued to ask gently, "Can you let me see your arm?" ”

This gentle move really worked, and the kid nodded obediently as if he had some trust in Ling.

It's just that now, the emperor is a little unhappy, what's going on with his arm? It was really a mistake for him to never tell himself in the dark line of the Ling clan that there were any marks on the arms of this clan.

Seeing that the child was close, Ling smiled and pulled the other party's arm, gently rolled up his sleeve and looked at it.

She was relieved that she didn't see the unique mark of the Ling family. I was going to smile and express the joy of not being held hostage by the emperor, but thinking that I didn't find the orphan of the Ling family, I couldn't show too much joy, and I put on a very melancholy expression.

"Emperor Qi is not the bloodline of the Ling family."

Ling Shi was really deeply relieved at this time, but he also had a trace of unwillingness.

Emperor Chao said that he was actually lucky to find the orphan of the Ling family, because in fact, Lingfu did leave a little boy at that time, but where is the little boy now? Are you still alive? Nothing is known.

After all, the Ling clan is her mother's family, and she has to be moved.

The emperor's reaction was also very fast, pretending to be very sorry to wave his hand and ask someone to take the child down, and did not say what the child's future would be, only the general's people immediately followed.

I think that most of this person will be disposed of by the emperor, and they can't kill a single life.

"I'm confused." The emperor left sadly.

A banquet was dispersed, and some courtiers came to the general to ask the general and his wife to drink some more wine.

Mrs. Ling explained in simple terms, and the officials muttered many times. The two of them had been friends before, but now the Ling family is in this trouble, and she regrets it very much. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xia Guan wanted to invite his wife to go and talk about it. ”

There was really no way to shirk this, and the general and his wife got into the man's carriage. I didn't see the man make an incomprehensible gesture towards the location of the palace.

Mrs. Ling's heart was beating, and she was very worried about the safety of Yu Xizhou in the mansion.

How long has it been since she came out, coupled with the inexplicable recognition of her relatives, she feels that something is completely wrong. Bashan Academy

The carriage stopped, and her thoughts were disrupted.

Speaking of Yu Xizhou, she coaxed the child to sleep after dinner. It was rumored that the general and his wife were going to the courtier's house to catch up, and she felt bad for a while.

The affairs of the Ling family should have been kept silent throughout the capital, but now it is often mentioned, especially today, there is a wife who is friendly with the Ling family, which is really abnormal, after all, no one has come to see the Ling family when the Ling family has an accident.

Yu Xizhou sneered, it seems that someone is going to target her!

Yu Xizhou's eyes flickered slightly, and he shouted to the maid: "Go and ask the divine doctor of He Chao to come, the county lord is a little unwell." ”

"Lord Qiqi, the divine doctor of the He Dynasty has been out for a day, and he has not returned yet."

The maid's voice couldn't hear anything abnormal, but Yu Xizhou's heart was beating drums for a while.

He Chao hasn't come back yet? Why didn't you come back after a day? If you are stumped by someone or something, I am afraid that you will not be able to come back in a short time.

Yu Xizhou's heart was full of drums. The general and the Ling clan were taken away, and He Chao did not return for a day. Now there is no one around her, this is completely an empty city plan.

When things go wrong, there must be demons, she took advantage of the night and didn't tell anyone, and quietly hid in the dark room.

Not long after entering the dark room, as if he knew that his situation was very dangerous, the child who was originally quiet in Xizhou's arms suddenly cried.

There are assassins wandering outside, and if he finds out, I'm afraid that Yu Xizhou's mother and daughter won't see the sun tomorrow.

Yu Xizhou hurriedly comforted the child, patted his daughter's back with one hand, lowered his head against the child's forehead, and said patiently: "Don't cry, my mother is here." ”

But the originally well-behaved Nan Nan is now like she has been in an evil spirit, and she keeps crying.

This time, Yu Xizhou also panicked, after all, she is just a new mother, and the set of appeasement techniques just now was also the one she watched too much TV in her previous life and learned from others.

At this moment, a sneer suddenly came from the darkness: "I said, why can't I find anyone in the bedroom, it turns out that I am hiding in the dark room." ”

Hearing this unfamiliar voice, Yu Xizhou trembled, and subconsciously hugged the child in her arms tightly, she turned sideways, hoping that the assassin in the dark could not see the child in her arms.

Yu Xizhou quietly took a deep breath and asked calmly, "Who are you?" ”

As if he felt that he was not asking the right question, Yu Xizhou sneered, "No, it should be asking you, who sent it?" ”

The visitor said coldly: "Do you think I will tell you?" ”

Hearing this person's answer, Yu Xizhou breathed a sigh of relief.

Since this person is willing to talk to him, it proves that he is not in a hurry to kill himself for a while, just go around in circles with him, delay time, try to protect his own safety, and wait for He Chaoyi or the general to return.

Even if the assassin had to hold himself hostage and die in the end, Yu Xizhou had to ensure that the child in his arms was still alive.

Thinking of this, Yu Xizhou relaxed and casually found a stool to sit down.

"I also don't think you're going to tell me who told you who it is, and even if you do, I won't believe it. I'm glad you didn't say it, after all, if you don't say it, there is no direct reason to kill me, am I right? ”

Listening to Yu Xizhou's tone was very calm, the assassin actually spoke slowly: "That's right, but I still want to kill you." ”

Yu Xizhou sighed slightly, she had planned to persuade this assassin to turn back, after all, being able to communicate with her showed that the other party was not cold-blooded.

But when I think about it, some of them are very perverted at the moment, and they look harmless to humans and animals and actually want to dismantle you, and I'm afraid to think about it.

So, Yu Xizhou replied cautiously, pretending to look indifferent, "It's okay, there are more people who want to kill me, no less than you, no, one more of you." ”

At the moment when his words fell, Yu Xizhou seemed to hear the sound of pinching bones.

However, this sound only appeared for a moment, and Yu Xizhou thought that he had heard it wrong. She didn't think that the assassin was angry because there were so many people trying to kill her.

However, there was silence next, and neither of them tacitly agreed not to speak.

Yu Xizhou was a little lucky, but he was even more afraid that this assassin was holding back some big moves.

After a while, the assassin's voice rang out again, and she calmed down: "Oh? You don't look as scared as you did now. ”

"Because you didn't do it as soon as you came in." Yu Xizhou smiled, this assassin is really funny, he really chatted with himself, I don't know whether to say stupid or inherently unsuitable to be an assassin.

Thinking of this, Yu Xizhou couldn't help but shake his head helplessly, and analyzed the assassin: "I turned my back to you just now, if you want to kill me, it's better to do it at that time." I don't think you, as an Assassin, will let this moment go. But you didn't do it, which means you don't want to kill me, at least, you don't want to kill me right away. ”

The assassin seemed to laugh as well, "You're a smart woman. ”

"Women have to be stupid once in a while to live long." Yu Xizhou had a smile on her face, in fact, cold sweat was already on her hands, if He Chao didn't come again, she really didn't know how long it would last.

"But I just like smart women."
