The fight outside the door was in full swing, and six black-clothed men rushed in through the window and killed Xiao Rui and the four.

Two killed Xiao Rui, two killed Yan Linglong, and the other two were Du Juan and Xiao Feng.

It seemed to be a very reasonable assassination structure, but it made Xiao Rui frown, of course, he didn't care about thinking so much now, two assassins from the second-grade realm found him, he quickly pulled out the dagger on his waist and began to deal with it.

The assassin is worthy of being a master of assassination, his methods are ruthless and insidious, and he even does not hesitate to exchange death for death, which no longer belongs to the assassin, but to the dead. Fortunately, Xiao Rui broke through the second-grade realm, otherwise he would have died immediately, even so, he was injured after a round.

Yan Linglong's situation is not good, she was also injured under the attack of two dead soldiers, she is also a second-grade realm, but after all, she is a woman.

Cuckoo's situation was better, barely coping with an Assassin.

Xiao Feng was even more unpanicked, an assassin couldn't hurt him.

Seeing that he was invincible, Xiao Rui directly made a false move, and then went out through the window. It is more dangerous to stay in the house, Yan Linglong also understands this, and immediately broke out of the window.

I saw that in the courtyard outside the house, the heavy rain poured down Baiyun Mountain and the five-rank assassins fought more intensely, Wu Zhanfa was entangled by a fourth-grade assassin, and the other assassins were surrounded and suppressed by the forbidden army.

Seeing Xiao Rui and Yan Linglong breaking out of the window and being safe, Bai Yunshan roared angrily: "Protect the princess and King Xian!" ”

Only then did the forbidden army react, and immediately protected Xiao Rui and Yan Linglong, and no longer besieged the assassins.

Seeing that the assassination was hopeless, the five-rank assassin immediately wanted to escape, so he pretended to attack and wanted to assassinate Yan Linglong, and immediately deceived Baiyun Mountain, and fled directly outward with a false move.

Baiyun Mountain didn't chase it, and it was basically impossible to stay behind the Wupin Realm master who had already made up his mind.

But leaving the other Assassins behind, it was a breeze.

Therefore, as Baiyun Mountain led people to encircle and suppress, all the other assassins were killed.

The heavy rain washed away the blood and stained the entire courtyard with red water.

Bai Yunshan knelt in front of Yan Linglong and Du Juan, and said, "The last general is not well protected, and I implore His Highness to punish him." ”

Because Xiao Feng was still there, Yan Linglong did not reveal her identity, but Du Juan said: "Thanks to the commander, otherwise my life would be in danger." Who would have thought that this group of assassins would be so cunning that they would take advantage of the heavy rain to strike, what do you say, His Royal Highness King Xian? ”

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "This matter is not well protected by our Great Xia, and we actually let the assassin lurk in, which frightened Her Royal Highness the Princess." You can rest assured that the identity of the assassin will be found out and the escaped Wupin assassin will be caught. ”

Du Juan nodded and said, "Your Highness is also injured, hurry up and heal." ”

Xiao Rui was stabbed, and Yan Linglong was also stabbed, but fortunately, the assassin did not smear the poison, otherwise he would have died. Now that I think about it, it's a blessing in misfortune.

As Xiao Rui bandaged up, Zhang Yu, the commander of the Jinyi Guard who rushed to hear the news, ordered someone to check the assassin's body, and finally reported to Xiao Rui: "Your Highness, these assassins are sent by the Great Zhao Kingdom, and the one who escaped should be Cao Lu, the assassination king of the Great Zhao Kingdom!" ”

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Okay, then trouble Lord Zhang to search the whole city, and be sure to find him!" One day he is in the capital, it is a day of danger, if he sneaks into the palace to assassinate His Majesty, what should he do? ”

Zhang Yu also knew the seriousness of the matter, and immediately hugged his fists and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, the lower official will personally lead someone to search, and this will be done." ”

After Zhang Yu left, Xiao Rui went to find Yan Linglong.

She also bandaged her injuries and was drinking tea alone in the house at this time.

"How is Your Highness's injury?" Yan Linglong asked.

Xiao Rui raised his arm and said, "I was stabbed, I'm glad that the other party didn't poison the knife." ”

Yan Linglong's movements as she drank tea froze, then put down the teacup and said, "Fortunately, the assassin is not as vicious as His Highness, otherwise today would be the sacrifice day for the two of us." ”

"Yes, going to hell together is a pair of wild mandarin ducks." Xiao Rui said casually.

provoked Yan Linglong to glare at him, and finally began to ask: "His Royal Highness King Xian, what are you doing with your fourth brother?" Did you deliberately come to tease me? ”

Xiao Rui hurriedly shook his hand and said, "This has nothing to do with me, I'm only responsible for helping, who told you to pretend to be a female official, and you look so beautiful." ”

"But the Assassins seem to know who I really am!" Yan Linglong said suddenly.

Xiao Rui was silent, yes, the assassins knew! At the time of the assassination just now, two assassins assassinated Xiao Rui, he was the reception envoy, and it was understandable, but why did two assassins look for Yan Linglong instead of Du Juan?

"Her Royal Highness the princess has come to Beijing, pretending to be a female official, and there are very few people in my Great Xia Kingdom who know your true identity, so is it that the black hands around Her Highness colluded with the Great Zhao assassins? So the Assassin knows your true identity? Xiao Rui asked.

Yan Linglong said: "It's also possible!" After all, I don't know if there are any other black hands in the mission. In addition, I see that His Highness frowned, it seems that he has something on his mind? ”

Xiao Rui smiled: "Of course there is something on my mind, I can't guarantee the safety of the princess, it's like a sword hanging above my head, and it's hard to sleep." ”

Yan Linglong saw that he was unwilling to tell the truth, so she stopped asking, and said, "After this incident, it is expected that the assassin will stop for a while, and I want to complete the alliance as soon as possible and return as soon as possible." ”

"Good! I will enter the palace tonight and report this to my father, and we will try to complete all the formalities for the alliance within five days. Xiao Rui agreed.

Subsequently, the two chatted a few more words, and Xiao Rui said goodbye.

Wu Zhanfa was seriously injured, so he left him in the courtyard to rest, and Wei Guang drove to escort Xiao Rui back to his home under the protection of the forbidden army.

Recalling all the details of the assassination in the afternoon, Xiao Rui's eyes suddenly opened with his eyes closed and meditative.

"Do you have any questions? Am I suspicious, or are you really hiding it? Xiao Rui muttered to himself, and then said to Wei Guang: "You don't have to go back to the house, go directly to the palace." ”

Xiao Rui entered the palace to face the saint, and Emperor Xia summoned him.

Emperor Xia was drinking tea in the warm pavilion, and when he saw Xiao Rui coming in, he waved his hand and said, "Come, sit down, no need to salute." ”

Xiao Rui walked over and sat opposite Emperor Xia, and Hai Dafu made tea for him.

"How's the injury?" Xia Huang glanced at Xiao Rui's arm.

Xiao Rui said: "Let my father worry, my son is fine, just some minor injuries." The son-in-law came to report to his father some of the key points of the work discussed with the envoys of Dayan today. ”

"Oh, I heard King Jin say that he just left not long ago." Xia Huang said with a smile.

Xiao Rui: ......

Xiao Lie's attack is in place, can you use it? You're a deputy envoy, and no matter how much credit you make, it won't be your turn.

"You can have the idea of trade, it is the blessing of the Great Xia Kingdom, and the ore is far better than a few million taels! It seems that I made the right choice to put you in charge of this. Xia Huang said.

Xiao Rui smiled: "It was taught by my father." ”

Emperor Xia said: "Among your brothers, you are the first to start training in national affairs, I am still worried that you are not sure, and now it seems that I have underestimated you, and next, I will add a burden to several of you." ”

"This is the responsibility of a prince." Xiao Rui said respectfully.

Xia Huang said: "Continue to negotiate with Dayan according to your ideas, since you have been given decision-making power, you can use it well." ”

"Erchen understands." Xiao Rui replied and retired from the palace.

Seeing that he was about to get home, Xiao Rui suddenly received another task from the system.

"Ding Dong, new mission open."

"New Mission: Kill Cao Lu, the assassination king of Zhao State, complete Advent +20, time: 5 days. The mission failed, let Cao Lu come to you to chat alone. ”

"Current Arrival: 60/100."

Xiao Rui's eyes opened instantly.
