Chapter 37: The Assassin's Night Attack
Su Yang was a little unpredictable about the old man's words, but since he had issued an eviction order, she didn't want to stay longer, drank the tea handed by the old man, and then walked out of the hut.
At this time, Feng Yi had already packed up her things and was waiting outside, and when she saw her come out, she said: "The way out of the forest is different from when she came, and it is inconvenient for the master to guide the two of you now, so I will do it for you, and the girl will follow." ”
Saying that, Feng Yi took the lead in the front, Ruo'er supported Su Yang to follow behind, and the three of them quickly walked out of the forest, only to find that it was already dark outside.
There were still two days left before the three days given by Murong Decision, and Su Yang was not in a hurry to return to the palace, so he took Feng Yi Ruo'er and found an inn in Beijing to stay.
At night, Ruo'er waited for Su Yang to take off the silk flower jewelry, and after loosening her bun, she began to complain: "Niangniang, don't you know, that Feng Yi is very bad-tempered, when you talk to the old gentleman in the house today, that Feng Yi can bully me badly, saying that I am timid!"
"But I think what he said is right, Ruo'er is indeed timid. Su Yang teased with a smile.
"!"
"Tuk Tuk!"
Just as the two were chatting, there was a sudden knock on the door of the wing room, Su Yang instantly became vigilant, glanced at Ruo'er, and whispered: "Go and hold the unlit candlestick on the side in case of emergency." ”
Ruo'er nodded and stood by the door with a candlestick, while Su Yang shouted outside the door: "Who?"
"The innkeeper's lady ordered a small order to send side dishes!"
Hearing what the man outside said, Su Yang felt that something was not quite right, she and the innkeeper were not related, why would people be so kind to send side dishes? Not to mention that it was late at night, who would order side dishes like this!
"No, I'm asleep. ”
"I can't help you!"
While speaking, several five big and three thick men broke into the door, each holding a long knife and went straight to Su Yang and Ruo'er, Ruo'er held a candlestick in his hand, waved it at will in fright, and even knocked down one, but Su Yang, who had no power to restrain the chicken, dodged everywhere, and maybe could dodge it in the first few strokes, but it couldn't dodge after a long time.
Suddenly, out of nowhere, a sword stabbed and went straight to Su Yang's throat, seeing that he was about to be defeated, at this moment, a man in black broke through the window, and divided a few strong men by two, and several strong men saw that they couldn't beat the man in black, and were about to leave, when the sound of the government arresting people sounded outside.
"Don't try to run!"
"Catch them all!"
The man in black saw that the people from the government were coming, jumped out of the window and left, Su Yang sat down in shock, Ruo'er lost the candlestick and stepped forward in a panic, and said with concern: "Niangniang, how are you?
"I, I'm fine, what the hell just happened. ”
Su Yang was helped up by Ruo'er, sat down on the side, and after drinking two sips of tea, he asked Ruo'er.
"The slave and maid don't know, but there is a noise below, saying that someone from the government is coming. ”
The two were talking, Feng Yi suddenly pushed the door in, and saw that the two of them were fine, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "It's okay if you guys are okay, there were a lot of people in my room just now, fortunately, I learned some kung fu and surrendered a few, but they all ran away, and now the people from the official mansion downstairs are tracking it." ”
Su Yang was skeptical of Feng Yi's words, but looking at his blue nose and swollen face, he thought that what he said might be exaggerated, but at least he did suffer an attack.
Listening to what Feng Yi said, the government downstairs was searching for assassins, and Su Yang wanted to go down and ask why these people wanted to attack them.
"Ruo'er, help me down. ”
"Yes. ”
The three of them went downstairs, but saw several men in official uniforms sitting aside, and a few men kneeling on the ground, Su Yang could vaguely distinguish that several of them were the ones who broke in just now.
"Imperial Princess, I've frightened you today. ”
One of the officials saw Su Yang coming down, and hurriedly nodded and said.
"Can these Assassins find out where they came from?"
"Back to Niangniang's words, these guys are very tight-mouthed, and they refuse to say anything. ”
Won't say?
When Su Yang heard this, he couldn't help but feel ridiculous, what could he not say, even the best dead man in the world, he would not fall into the government and die with a hard mouth, and besides, it was too coincidental for the people from the government to appear.
Su Yang looked at this crowd and waited, and a thought popped up in his heart, whether today's assassins were all sent by the Ye family, and the reason why the people from the official mansion were able to arrive so quickly was because Murong Jue received the news, for fear that Ye Qinxin's plan would be revealed, in order to protect her, this is why such a big drama was staged.
Thinking of this, Su Yang's heart was cold, and he didn't want to continue to look at these rabble.
"Then I'll have to worry about my lord to deal with them, and I'll go back to rest in this palace. ”
After that, Ruo'er helped Su Yang back to the room.
After serving Su Yang, Ruo'er was about to go out, but was stopped.
"Ruo'er, sleep with Bengong tonight, Bengong is a little scared. ”
It's not so much scared as it is chilling.
Murong Jue was worried that Ye Qinxin would lose face, so he ordered her to go back without giving her any punishment, this time, Ye Qinxin had already endangered her life, Murong Jue was still like this in order to protect her, could it be that in his Murong Jue's eyes, except for Ye Qinxin, everyone else's lives were like mustard?
Thinking like this, a teardrop the size of a bean rolled down her cheek and dripped on the pillow, Ruo'er didn't know the reason, she just thought she was afraid, so she obediently went to bed, hugged Su Yang, and said softly: "Don't be afraid, Ruo'er will accompany you." ”
Somehow, with Ruo'er's company, Su Yang finally felt a little better, these days, she has gradually regarded this girl as a cronie, so she asked: "Ruo'er, what do you say the emperor is doing to Ye Qinxin?"
The slave maid thought that the emperor might be disgusted with Miss Ye. ”
"But if he was really disgusted, why did he easily let Ye Qinxin go back that day without a word of punishment?"
Ruo'er was dumbfounded, she looked at Su Yang's red eyes, and didn't know what to say to comfort her for a while, so she could only hug her tightly.
"Ruo'er, this palace is really scared today, the assassin's weapon is less than an inch away from the throat of this palace, and this palace thinks that he is going to die......"
"Niangniang, don't think about it, today's events are over, sleep, Ming'er still has something to do. ”
At this time, Su Yang was like a wounded child, sobbing in a low voice, Ruo'er had no choice but to coax her and sing a lullaby for her.
The melodious tune with the country accent was calming, and Su Yang felt a lot more relieved after listening to it for a while, and fell into a deep dream.
At this time, the inn is downstairs.
A dark green figure appeared, and several officials hurriedly stepped forward.
"Your Excellency, the Assassins have finished interrogating them. ”
"Is there a result?"
"Lord Hui, it's from the Ye family. ”
The man's narrow phoenix eyes narrowed slightly, his brows were tightly locked, and he snorted coldly: "Leave a confession, and then kill them all!"
"Yes!"
