The ritual of worshiping the heavens in the East Fence Country is to pray for the blessings and cheers of the soldiers who are about to go on the expedition. I hope to seek the blessing of the gods and bless them with victory and triumph.

Sannar held a ceremony to worship the heavens at this time, and most people also expressed doubts about whether it was too early, but everyone avoided talking about it and just acted according to the regulations.

The ritual of worshipping the heavens is generally held at night, it is said that the end of the day is the end and the beginning, and it is the fusion between chaos and purity between heaven and earth.

At night, at the altar of the royal palace, the generals of the various armies led by Gelthai wore black armor and stood on both sides, and Sanar appeared on the top of the altar in golden armor.

As the main figure of the worship of the heavens, he has a heavy responsibility. The sky seemed unusually dark tonight, the field was full of torches, and the light was still dim. He knelt at the top of the altar, offered two sticks of incense with his hands, closed his eyes and meditated on something.

The generals behind him knelt at the bottom of the steps, their eyes fixed on the dark night sky. According to the ritual, after the incense was applied, the king should place his token on the altar as evidence of commanding the thousand armies of the world. But after waiting for a long time, I didn't see Sanar move, and there was nothing on the tray supporting the token.

The audience began to whisper, but no one dared to come forward to warn him. Everyone knelt quietly under the altar like this, and Gertai didn't know how he planned it, and his heart was very worried.

As the minutes ticked by, the two sticks of incense were almost burned out, and Sanar finally stood up and walked towards the altar. He glanced at the ministers kneeling under the stage with a solemn expression, and everyone was waiting for him to give orders.

"Hoo ......"

He took a deep breath, walked over to the table, and reached out to fumble for something inside the other sleeve.

A yin wind blew, and Gertai smelled a hint of danger in the wind. When he reacted, he saw that the long arrow had been flying straight towards Sanar.

"Protect the Prince!" Gertai leapt to his feet and rushed towards him.

"What!"

Sanar, who was on stage, didn't have time to react, and watched the arrow pierce his chest.

"There are assassins! Escort! Hurry up! ”

The second to rush to the stage was Sali, who dragged Sanar behind the table, and the altar was already artificially drained by the people present, and Gertai stood at the front, staring closely at everyone in the audience.

"Report, General, the assassin is trying to escape, and we have sent someone to chase him."

"Lead the way, I'm going to capture this assassin myself!"

"Yes."

Gertai angrily pursued the Assassin in the direction of his escape.

The darkness of the night almost made it impossible for them to discern their direction, and finally, after running to a garden, they lost their target.

"General, the man is gone. We're scouring around. ”

"Slow," Gertai looked in one direction, "no need to chase, he must be hiding there." ”

The lieutenant looked over and saw that the exit of the garden in front of them happened to be the only entrance to the princess's bedchamber.

"General, there's ......"

The lieutenant was a little incredulous.

"Stop talking nonsense, call the Master to come with me."

"Yes, General."

Gertai suddenly broke into the princess's dormitory with a group of soldiers, she was having dinner at this time, and when she heard the noise outside, she hurriedly ran out to take a look, but when she opened the door, she saw that there were already soldiers standing outside. Their uninvited arrival surprised and angered Windona.

"Don't you know what this place is! If you dare to trespass into the princess's dormitory, don't be afraid that I will tell you......"

"Your Highness Princess," Gertai leisurely stepped out from behind the crowd, "we are not trespassing, we are ordered to capture the fugitives. No matter who you go to, I'm not afraid. ”

"Fugitives? What a fugitive. ”

"His Royal Highness the Prince was assassinated during the Heavenly Sacrifice Ceremony tonight, and we have tracked the fugitive all the way here. The fugitive must have been hiding with you, and I ask the princess to let us search for it. ”

"Joke, I'm here to search if you want?" Wen Dona was indignant, "Hurry up and leave with your people, otherwise I'm welcome!" ”

"Wen Dona, I have good words to persuade you, don't be ignorant." Gertai drew the sword from his waist and pointed it at her, "The current situation is not up to you. You'd better get out of the way, or I'm welcome. ”

"Bang!"

At this moment, Gertai's sword didn't know what was hit, and it bounced off his hand at once, and his hand was hurt by this strong rebound, making him hold his wrist in a little pain.

"What bastard would dare to sneak up on me!"

"I'm sorry, but it's a wrong hand at the next moment. I also ask for your forgiveness. ”

"It's you again."

Gelthai gritted his teeth and looked at Bai Jian who was talking lightly and breezy on the other side. Every time this person delays him, it was the same last time, it seems that he really wants to find a good opportunity to teach him a lesson.

"General, if you delay any longer, I'm afraid the prisoners will ......"

The adjutant cautiously reminded him on the side.

"I have already explained my purpose, and whether you want it or not, it has nothing to do with me. Come on, start to be rancid. ”

At Gertai's order, the soldiers present began to split up to search for the Assassin. This group of savage soldiers turned the entire dormitory into a mess without any rules, and the palace ladies hid aside and did not dare to make a sound. Looking at everything in front of her, Wen Dona secretly clenched her fists.

"Found it!"

Out of nowhere, there was a burst of cheers, and several soldiers escorted a beaten and dying man and threw him directly in front of everyone.

"General, this is the assassin I saw."

Witnesses and physical evidence gathered, and Gelthai sat proudly on the stone bench, drinking a cup of tea by the way.

"Tell me, who sent you to assassinate His Highness?"

“…… I ......"

The man lay weakly on the ground, covered in blood.

"Is there anyone you know here, say quickly, I'll spare your life."

"Gong......" the man on the ground turned his head with great effort, "...... Save...... Save me...... Public...... Lord ......" the man swallowed after saying these two words.

Everyone's eyes followed his movements, and then they all focused on Windona.

"I don't know him at all!"

Windona was completely blindsided. When did there be such a person here, still an assassin, and he didn't know anything, this is a frame-up, and someone wants to frame him.

"Princess, let's wait until I'm in prison to say these words, take them away."

"Wait, I really don't know ......"

Without waiting for her explanation, he was carried out by two people.

"Bai Jian......" She looked at him with difficulty, and Bai Jian was looking at herself with a frown and doubt. Could it be that he is doubting himself too!

Windona's nerves were on the verge of collapse, and she was at their mercy and sent to the dungeon. It all happened so suddenly, and before I could figure out what was going on, the person was inexplicably taken away.

"Big Brother Bai, the princess was taken away, what should I do! It's definitely not his order at the moment......"

"Of course I do." Bai Jian's eyebrows were already twisted into a ball. There is no doubt that this sudden arrest was obviously aimed at her. The question is, whether there is any hope for her to come out alive from there.

"Xiaoxi, you are guarding the door for me now, and if anyone comes, tell me immediately!"

"Oh.... Oooh.... I'll go now! Before he had time to wipe the tears from his face, Konishi ran out in a panic.
