Chapter 216: A Peaceful Life

Xiao Jin returned to the palace and instructed the housekeeper around him to investigate the matter.

He vaguely felt that this matter might have something to do with Ji Ke Tilt, so that people could investigate it thoroughly.

On the other side, Ji Ketian and Lian Yan hid in a common people's home, and there were only two old husbands and wives in the family.

"Lian Yan, it's all my fault, it's all your fault, you should have composed music in the court and enjoyed your happy life."

Ji Ketian said guiltily to Lotus Death while bandaging the wound of Lotus Death.

Looking at Ji Ke's appearance, Lian Yan wanted to tell her what she was thinking.

But when she thought of her previous refusal to return to the Western Regions, the throbbing in her heart was forcibly suppressed by herself.

pulled out a smile and looked at Ji Ketian gently, "Princess, aren't we friends?" ”

"Thank you."

The final bandaging was done, and the door was opened.

"Mrs. Li, how is your father-in-law's injury? The old man and I cooked something, so eat it while it's hot! ”

The old woman walked in with a bowl of rice and two side dishes, smiling.

When Lian Yan heard the old woman's name, she looked at Ji Ketian with some confusion.

Ji Ketian ignored Lian Yan's reaction, got up directly and took the old woman's plate, and thanked the old woman gratefully.

After the old woman is gone.

Ji Ketian was a little embarrassed, "No way, I originally wanted to be the same as before, but as soon as I entered the door, they misunderstood, so I agreed." ”

Although Lian Yan was very happy in his heart, he thought of it.......

"Princess, this will damage your reputation, in case the prince knows, I'm afraid it will ......"

Lian Yan spoke worriedly. He didn't want to be talked about and fall behind because of himself.

Ji Ketian waved his hand indifferently, "It's okay, don't worry!" ”

Before the two of them had eaten, they tried it with a silver needle.

Unexpectedly, the silver needle turned black.

Ji Ketian didn't expect that the kind old couple would actually poison two people, could it be that they were also assassins?

After discussion, the two decided to keep quiet.

"The food was delicious, eat more."

"You eat more, Lian Yan, are you still injured?"

Ji Ketian poured the food into the urinal, and the dishes were put on the table first.

At night, the two of them slept together in their clothes.

Ji Ke tossed and turned, and couldn't sleep.

"What's wrong?"

Lian Yan asked with concern.

Just as Ji Ketian was about to speak, Lian Yan immediately covered Ji Ketian's mouth and didn't let her make a sound.

Lian Yan made a silent motion.

In the darkness, the two men slowly got up and moved to the corner of the bed, trying not to make a sound.

With the sound of a sword piercing through the window, two dark shadows crept into the room.

In the dark, Ji Ke squatted on the ground, accidentally got a basket with his right hand, and when he touched it, he found a lot of tiny silver needles.

He grabbed a handful and put it in Lian Yan's hand.

Taking advantage of the black shadow to stab the quilt, Lotus continued to stab the assassin's neck with the silver needle in his hand.

Both Assassins collapsed on their beds.

Lotus lit it with a candle and lifted the Assassin's veil, revealing that it was two unfamiliar young faces.

Ji Ketian instantly felt that something was wrong, and when he pulled Lian Yan and wanted to leave, the old couple would immediately walk in.

The amiability of the day is completely gone, and a gloomy face is replaced.

"Old man, I guessed right, these two people really didn't hit the scheme."

"Obediently, let's do it."

The old man's eyes shone with a grim light, and he clenched the big knife in his hand, ready to make a move at any time.

Lian Yan protected Ji Ke behind him, thinking about how to escape?

"Haha, don't you feel that you have no strength in your body!"

Ji Ketian and Lian Yan glanced at each other, and the secret way was not good.

"You ......"

"Princess, what's wrong with you?"

Ji Ketian weakly grasped the lotus mourning, and the whole person leaned on the lotus corpse, feeling powerless.

"Haha, your princess was lost to me, if you weren't injured, I guess you would be like her."

The two of them walked up to the lotus tree very proudly, and when they lifted the knife in their hands and were about to swing it down.

At this moment, Ji Ketian and Lianyan's eyes suddenly became very clear.

As soon as the two of them tilted their heads, Ji Ketian and Lian Yan exerted all their strength together, and pierced the thighs of the couple with the silver needles in their hands.

Before the two of them could react, Lian Yan hooked his foot, picked up his sword, and stabbed the two of them in the throat without hesitation.

Seeing that the old couple both fell to the ground, Lian Yan and Ji Ketian hurriedly left this place of right and wrong.

……

"What do you say? King Yi is chasing and killing the princess and the lotus martyr. ”

Xiao Jin was pleasantly surprised when he heard the news of Ji Ke Tan and Lotus Death.

"Tell the people below not to act rashly, follow King Yi's men and horses first, and find the princess."

Xiao Jin banged on the table, "Wait, I'll go out myself!" ”

The housekeeper wanted to stop Xiao Jin on the side, "Lord Wang, the situation in the court may change at any time, in case you leave at this time, I'm afraid it will ......."

Xiao Jin hesitated, and weighed it, "You help me keep an eye on the situation in the court, if Xiao Yi has any movements, you will immediately send someone to tell me!" ”

Seeing that the housekeeper still wants to mention it again.

Xiao Jin's face sank and he waved his hand, "I have decided to lead the troops myself." ”

The housekeeper had no choice but to follow Xiao Jin's instructions and didn't dare to say anything more.

……

Lian Yan and Ji Ke had been on the road all night, and the two of them were already exhausted.

When they came to a water's edge, Ji Ke poured a leaf and scooped up a little water to quench the thirst of the two people.

Seeing that he was getting closer and closer to the capital, Ji Ketian became more and more uneasy.

In the distance, a wave of killers was gradually approaching the two men, ready to wait for an opportunity.

When Ji Ketian turned his head and was about to speak, his eyes widened, "Lianyan, be careful." ”

Lotus turned his head and happened to dodge a knife.

Turning around and jumping, he fought the killer.

One of the Assassins kicked away, and others swung their knives at the lodge.

Seeing that the knife was getting closer and closer, Ji Ketian closed his eyes, feeling that this time he was probably not so lucky.

At this moment, an arrow was shot in the distance, and it was sent to the back of the killer in front of him.

In a few moments, the killer was eliminated by the army that rushed in.

Xiao Jin walked in front of Ji Ketian, hugged Ji Ketian, and said excitedly, "It's okay if you're fine." ”

Lian Yan looked at the two people who were hugging, feeling a little lost.

Ji Ketian happened to meet Lian Yan's eyes, pretended not to see it, hugged Xiao Jin, and comforted, "It's okay." ”

"This king thanks you for escorting the princess all the way, and when I return to the palace, I will definitely have a heavy reward."

Xiao Jin said condescendingly to Lian Yan.

Lian Yan bowed to Xiao Jin and said respectfully, "This is what subordinates should do!" ”
