Yingning looked at my period, and then looked at Moyan, this person lives well, but why do you want to do things for yourself?

Wu Qi pointed to the seat next to him, and said to Ying Ning with a smile: "I know you have doubts in your heart, you sit down and listen to me tell you slowly." ”

Ying Ning was stunned and asked, "Can I sit down?" ”

"Why not?" I put down the book in my hand and asked rhetorically.

She's just a maid now, and although I'm not strict with her, I've never been on an equal footing with him. She sat down hesitantly and asked softly, "What the hell is going on, they all say that the prince has ......" She couldn't say it, after all, the word death is too unlucky.

"Oh yes, I did die of poison. At this moment, not only the people in the entire palace thought I was dead, but the entire Luoyang City thought I was dead. I took a leisurely sip of tea and said with a smile.

Ying Ning was even more confused, not knowing what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd. I continued to explain: "The Huns want me to die, so I will die to show them. They want to invade my borders, and I am a stumbling block to them. Because every time they make the slightest move, they will be beaten back to their hometown by the army led by me. Since they wanted to kill me, I did what they wanted. ”

"Is the prince cheating on death? To deceive those Huns? It's good to take advantage of the chaos when they are in trouble, and then show up at the right time to catch them off guard" Ying Ning finally understood a little.

Wu Qi smiled and nodded, as smart as her, and reacted to it all in just a few words.

So how do you convince them? They didn't see it with their own eyes, so they must have doubted it. Yingning said.

I seemed to be confident, and replied indifferently: "Mo Yan has released the news, and the coffin will be buried tomorrow." Naturally, the Huns would not believe it all, and if nothing else, they would visit the palace at night today. Just let them believe when the time comes. ”

Ying Ning was still puzzled, how could he make those cunning Huns believe that he was still alive. I expected to see through her psychology, and before she could ask, he pushed a sandalwood box in his hand in front of Yingning's eyes.

Ying Ning opened the box and asked, "What is this?" "There was a small porcelain bottle in the box, and in the bottle was a brown pill.

Mo Yan said behind her: "This is a fake death medicine, after taking this medicine, your breathing and heartbeat can stop for three hours, just like you are dead." ”

Ying Ning sniffed the pill, and there was a strong smell of Chinese medicine. Ying Ning frowned: "This medicine sounds good, but won't the prince be in danger?" ”

"There won't be anything wrong with this medicine, and the prince will wake up on his own in three hours. As for whether the prince is unconscious, will he be harmed by the Huns again, the girl can rest assured. The mourning hall was full of secret guards. And each of them is the prince's henchmen, and the prince's safety will not be a problem. Mo Yan explained carefully, so that Yingning could rest assured.

Ying Ning naturally would not question his ability. It's just that there will always be accidents in everything, what if? She looked at Wu Qi very worriedly, Wu Qi sighed, reached out to hold her hand on the table, and said in a deep voice, "Don't worry, I'll be fine." If the Huns are not destroyed, I dare not die. ”

Yingning suddenly felt sad, he had been on the battlefield for half his life, in order to protect the country and society, and to live a peaceful life for the people, he was scarred. Now he actually said that the Huns would not be destroyed, and he would not dare to die.

She was very distressed, she would rather him be reincarnated as a nobody, than that he was born in the royal family and had such a big responsibility on his shoulders.

I pinched the pill with my thumb and forefinger, less than half an hour before it got dark. It's time for him to take this medicine, if he takes the pill, he will die, and everything depends on Mo Yan. He looked at Ying Ning and said softly: "After I take this medicine, you will stay in the secret room obediently, and you will come out when everything is over." ”

Ying Ning twisted her eyebrows and blurted out: "Then how can it be, I want to guard you." What if they don't work against you and you can't fight back? ”

"I don't need you to guard me, I'm a prince, and I haven't been reduced to a woman to guard me." I refused, and my tone was firm and unquestionable.

How could Ying Ning agree and stay here obediently. She rubbed her feet up, looked down at him, and said seriously, word by word: "It's always you protecting me, what's wrong with me protecting you once?" Has anyone said that men can't let women protect them? ”

Wu Qi looked at her with a cold expression, her face was flushed, and her eyes were bloodshot, as if she was angry. He sighed, "I didn't always protect you, just once. ”

"It was enough to be injured and poisoned in just one time, and almost died. I can't let you have an accident no matter what, you believe me, I will protect myself while guarding you. Yingning reached out and tugged at his sleeve and begged him mournfully.

I am most afraid of her like this, and every time I pitifully grabs his sleeve, he will soften. will want to agree to everything she asks, but this time is different, those Huns are ruthless. If he did, he wouldn't be protecting her like he had last time. If something really happened, he would not forgive himself. He had understood his heart, he wanted her, he wanted her to be his princess. If the Xiongnu are pacified this time, he must tell her that he also likes her. She must be very happy, he thought. After all, as soon as she approached him, she was already strict that she admired him very much. Thinking that he could live with her every day in the future, he began to yearn endlessly.

It's just that everything is undecided now, and he doesn't know if he can pacify the Xiongnu. Although he returned victorious every time, he also died on the battlefield. He is not 100% successful, and he is determined to die every time. He couldn't let her down after giving her hope. So he could only wait until the dust had settled before he could tell her in a dignified manner that he was going to marry her.

He said, "You asked for an antidote for me, and you saved me." So you don't owe me, we're settled. ”

"No, it can't be counted that way." Ying Ning wanted to tell him for a moment, and the connection between them was more than that. There are also bits and pieces of the past, in order to save her, he was reincarnated as a prince. As a prince or blocking the knife for her, she suddenly couldn't understand why things always developed like this, couldn't she save him once? Always doing this made her feel guilty and uncomfortable, as if she had been scratched by a cat, and she was at a loss.

"Yingning, you listen to me. Mo Yan arranged everything properly, and it would definitely be fine. I took her hand by the sleeve of his shirt and gently broke her fingers one by one.

Mo Yan reminded on the side: "Lord Wang, it's not early, you better take the medicine quickly." Otherwise, it will be too late, and in case of goofing, everything will be wasted. ”

Ying Ning also felt that she couldn't be entangled anymore, so she let go and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you, just be careful." She thought to herself, this small secret room can't trap her, just find a chance to go out when the time comes.

Wu Qi finally smiled, and the pill in his hand was finally swallowed in his stomach. Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, they went out of the secret room together. Although Yingning was reluctant, she was still stayed. The moment the door of the secret room closed, she couldn't go out immediately just to be on the safe side. In case she is discovered by Mo Yan, it will be too troublesome to send her back. So she carefully looked for the switch of the air-lock, but the secret room was cleverly designed, and she looked for a long time, but she had no clue. Forget it, she's better to use her own methods, but it's hard to explain to me afterwards.

She sighed, spun around twice in place, and then instantly turned into a wisp of green smoke and went out through the crack in the door.

When Ying Ning arrived at the door of the mourning hall, she saw several guards standing next to the coffin. The lid of the coffin had been opened, and it was not covered by what Yingning had seen before. She was about to pass when she heard the sound of a soo from a bamboo forest in the distance.

She hurriedly hid in the shadows, quietly observing the movement in the distance. Mo Yan probably heard the movement as well, he threw the last step of paper money into the brazier, got up slowly, waved his hand at a few guards, and they went out together.

There were still two guards in the mourning hall, their fingers resting on their swords, listening carefully to the movement. Ying Ning looked up at the beams of the house, only to feel that a few people would jump down at any time.

In the distance, Mo Yan had already reached the edge of the bamboo forest, he took the bow and arrow handed to him by the guard, and with lightning speed, he released a few arrows into the forest. Ying Ning didn't expect Mo Yan's archery skills to be so good, and there were a few wails in the forest in an instant.

After a while, several veiled men in black jumped out of the forest. Those people were the same as the people they saw in Zuichun Tower, the same outfits, the same swords, and the same fierce eyes. They soon became entangled, swords clashing and sparks flying.

Ying Ning didn't bother to observe them, and her intuition told her that there would be no peace in the mourning hall. She was thinking that two men in black had jumped down from the roof, but their black clothes were embroidered with some strange patterns, and they seemed to be more advanced than those who were fighting, presumably their leaders.

Their kung fu also seemed to be more powerful, and the two guards in the mourning hall were already in a fighting state, but before they could react, they were sealed by their swords. Bright red blood spurted out of their necks like a fountain of blood, spurting a full distance of several meters. The heavy smell of blood instantly filled his nose, and Ying Ning stared at them intently, a faint green light gathering in his hands. As long as they dare to attack us, she will make them die without a place to bury. She carefully considered how much force she should use, and at least one of them should be left alive, so that he could spread the news that the prince had died.

The two of them slowly walked to the coffin step by step, they were also suspicious of deception, and they walked carefully with each step. One of them put his hand into the coffin, probably in the midst of a visit. After a moment, I held my wrist again, and my pulse did not respond. He turned to the other and nodded, and reached out and took a silver knife from his bosom, which he raised to stab at me.

Ying Ning secretly screamed badly, and the spiritual power in his hand swung out. The green light struck the man's wrist, and the knife clattered to the ground. The two of them were immediately on alert, and Ying Ning couldn't hide anymore, her fingers tore off the hem of her skirt and wrapped it around her face. I didn't allow her to come, but she secretly escaped with mana. It's really hard to explain to him, so I can only come up with this strategy.

She came out of the shadows, and they probably saw that she was a woman, and they smiled very contemptuously. They looked at each other, and one of them flew at her with a knife. She ducked, the wind flying past her ears. Ying Ning turned around quickly, and slashed at the man's chest with his palm, but he blocked the knife horizontally. He slashed at her several times, and Ying Ning easily defused it.

That person probably didn't expect that she could fight like this as a woman, and in addition to being shocked, there were many flaws exposed. Ying Ning took advantage of his defenselessness and grabbed his wrist, using less than three points of strength, and only heard a click, and the wrist was broken. The man fell to the ground, clutching his wrist and wailing. 、

The other one had already picked up the silver knife and stabbed it into the heart of Wu Qi while Ying Ning was fighting. Ying Ning heard the sound of the knife entering the flesh, and was shocked and rushed over, one hand stuck the man's throat, and his nails instantly became sharp, like a small knife. Before the man could react, she was sent to hell.

Ying Ning threw the man to the ground and hurriedly lay on the edge of the coffin, the knife pierced straight into the heart of Wu Period, and the blood spread out along the blade. She remembered that before I was gone, I was like this, with a gray face, closed eyes, and dripping blood.

Her hands were shaking, and her body was shaking. Completely uncontrollable, she turned her head, tears sliding from the corners of her eyes. She looked at the man lying on the ground, her wrist broken, her eyes turning dark green, hatred slowly fermenting in her chest, gradually growing.

The man was shocked by her change, and knew that he was not her opponent, so he didn't know what he took out of his arms and threw it at Yingning. He hid behind the white powder, Ying Ning couldn't see anything, she rushed over in a rage, but the man was long gone.

Ying Ning clenched her fists and ran to the coffin again. She held out two fingers to stop the bleeding, but strangely, he didn't bleed much. Ying Ning opened his shirt, only to find that he was wearing a layer of soft armor inside. That layer of soft armor was very thick, and it seemed that the blade had pierced a lot, but in fact, it was only a little bit of flesh from the tip of the knife. If it had been a little later, I am afraid that the wound would have healed on its own.

Ying Ning wiped her tears and laughed, it's good that she didn't die. She tidied up his clothes, and saw that the situation outside was still very good, and Mo Yan had almost cleaned up those people. Ying Ning still felt strange, if she hadn't appeared, there would be no one in this spirit hall, even if I wore soft armor in advance, they shouldn't be so relieved.

Dark Guard? Isn't there a dark guard? Why didn't they show up? Yingning patted her head, I'm afraid she was still exposed. She showed up and cleaned up the two of them, and those secret guards naturally wouldn't have appeared, presumably hiding there to watch a good show at the moment.

Ying Ning looked around, but didn't see anything. Forget it, let's run away. Fortunately, with a veil on her face, they shouldn't be able to recognize her, and she won't admit it then.
