The dagger was given to Susukino Shin to play with after he conferred on her the title of county lord. The appearance is gorgeous and intricate, like a hanging dagger hung by the West Moon Girl on her waist for decoration, which looks a little flashy and does not look like a murder weapon. The blade of the knife is very short, and Huaxi had applied an anesthetic hallucinogenic agent to the blade earlier, and it was worn close to the body for self-defense.

Xun Zhengnan never thought that a weak woman like Lord Jingxian would stab him at a critical time, and the wound began to bleed, he let go of Huaxi, gritted his teeth and cursed in a low voice: "Slut, you dare to hurt ......" Before the words were finished, Xun Zhengnan lost consciousness and fell to the ground.

Huaxi was frightened, her hands trembled slightly, and she kept admonishing herself in her heart to be calm.

Xun Zhengnan's subordinates found that their lord had fallen to the ground, and they made a gesture to grab Huaxi, and as soon as they raised their knives, they fell to the ground one after another.

"Jun, girl, are you alright?" Bai Lan took two people to solve Xun Zhengnan's people and rushed in.

"It's okay, it's okay." Cui Ming ran back to hold on to the crumbling Huaxi.

Bai Lan glanced at the dagger in Xun Zhengnan's abdomen lying on the ground, and immediately understood what was going on, she calmly walked over, probed Xun Zhengnan's pulse, pulled out the dagger, reached out and quickly clicked on Xun Zhengnan's abdomen a few times, and walked back to Huaxi's side, "County Lord, let's go"

"Didn't you just say that Dad was here?"

"It's not the prince. The county lord, you come up first, and the slave and maid carry you faster. Bai Lan carried Huaxi on her back, and Cui Ming was also carried by another person. Several people hurried towards the depths of the alley.

Bai Lan led a few people around the alley, and ran for two quarters of an hour, and finally stopped outside a courtyard.

Putting down Huaxi, Bai Lan jumped on the wall and jumped in, and after a while, the gate "creaked" open. Bai Lan and an old man came out of the courtyard. The old man's surname is Ji, and he was originally a subordinate of Susukino Shin, who had no children and no daughters, and after retiring, Susukino Shin placed him in the city to watch this dark house.

Bai Lan came out and helped Huaxi directly, "Girl, go in." ”

Entering the house and sitting down, Huaxi looked at the blood on her hands and felt that her legs were still trembling.

I have palpitations.

After settling down, Huaxi took the hot tea handed to her by Bai Lan and asked, "What's going on with Dad?" ”

"During the scuffle just now, Mo and they came to answer, saying that the king died in prison and the prince was summoned to the palace."

Susukino Sotomo is dead? King Mohan's army pointed directly at the heavenly capital, and the external troubles were not eliminated, and this incident happened again...... On the surface, Susukino Sonor's death should have been committed by Susukino Sokatsu, but Susukino Sokai is also seriously suspected. I'm afraid that someone in Sukino Zongfei and Bono Zongqi colluded with King Mohan.

Huaxi thought about it, and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and his hands trembled almost imperceptibly, Sukino Zonghu died, will something happen to his father?

Bai Lan seemed to notice Huaxi's strangeness, and knew that she remembered Bono Xin, and hurriedly said, "...... This is what the prince prepared earlier, and no one outside knows about it. I will contact Mr. Hu if I have any questions. County Lord, after a night of tossing, let's wash and rest. ”

After that night, the guards that Susukino had left behind all returned, losing two of them. In the days that followed, Huaxi stayed in the courtyard. Bai Lan and Cui Ming have been accompanying her all the time to stay out of the house, and their daily needs are to go out to buy from the old servant Uncle Ji.

Two days later, the secret guard sent back the news that the commander of the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army that night, had been assassinated. Including the palace of King Xin, the palace of King Xian, the palace of Zhidu and other mansions, there have been guards by the Imperial Forest Army, which is called "protection". On the other hand, the banner of King Mohan's army has been changed from "worshiping the first king" to "King Qin's escort", seeing that the army is pressing, Queen Xun came forward, and the two kings were regents, until the crisis in the heavenly capital was resolved, and then one of them was enthroned. The death of Susukino Sohu made Susukino Sohu suspicious of murder, so most people in the court began to fall to Susukino Sokai one after another, and the court seemed to be united with the outside world, but inside it was actually turbulent, and the struggle to eliminate dissidents by taking advantage of the chaos continued. The situation is becoming more and more tense, every day there will be ministers imprisoned or protected, the dark clouds of depression before the war will hang over Tiandu City, every day there will be officials and soldiers in the name of conscription to search, Huaxi every day for a period of time is really spent in the dark cellar. There were constantly people at the city gate who wanted to escape from the city, and then it developed to more and more people who wanted to leave the heavenly capital, causing chaos at the city gate every day, and finally an edict was issued from above, and two people were cut down and finally calmed down.

On the first day of the eighth month, the army of King Mohan came to the city. The Dahua mission, which was originally scheduled to leave on this day, had already left Tiandu ahead of schedule because of the death of Emperor Chengwu.

Huaxi was woken up in her sleep by the sound of cries outside, and Huaxi knew that King Mohan's army was coming.

Huaxi got up and walked out of the house, the sky was dark, it seemed to be infected by the slaughter, standing in the courtyard could vaguely hear the sound of war drums outside the city, Uncle Ji, who was cleaning on the side, hunched his back, held the broom, and sighed lightly: "The people will suffer again in a war." ”

Bai Lan came back from outside and directly asked Cui Ming to pack up her things, "General Heng was defeated and died, King Mohan's army besieged Tiandu City, the city is not strong enough, and it is estimated that it will not last for twenty days." Now that the homeless people in the city have begun to grab the shop, Cui Ming, you hurry up and pack your things, Uncle Ji will prepare dry food, in case the city is broken, everyone will go to the cellar to hide. ”

"What about my father and my fifth brother?" Huaxi was anxious, and he didn't dare to act rashly in the past few days of curfew, and he didn't know the news of Susukino Shin and Sukino Kiyuki.

Bai Lan said: "King Xian and the prince have both gone to the city gate to sit down...... The prince instructed the slaves and maids to protect the county lord. I couldn't send the county lord out of the city last time, and this time the slave will protect you to the death. ”

Crying, shouting, beating...... Before walking into the cellar to hide, Huaxi was immersed in this solemn atmosphere for ten days, and his restlessness gradually increased.

The war was not as Bai Lan expected, the defenders of Tiandu were used to being pampered, no better than the soldiers who fought on the Mohan grassland, and these people in the Xiyue royal capital alone lost this momentum, so this battle only lasted for ten days, and finally because the Ximen guards surrendered, the city gate was opened, and the soldiers of the Mohan King went straight into the city.

The soldiers looted in the city, because the house was located in a civilian area, and there was a secret cellar, Huaxi and the others finally escaped a catastrophe.

Huaxi still couldn't let go of Susukino in her heart, and Bai Lan couldn't survive Huaxi's entanglement, so she had to take advantage of the chaos to go out to find out the news of the prince.

After most of the day, Bai Lan sneaked back, and there was an arrow wound on her shoulder, "County Lord, the prince has plotted, he was shot by a poisoned arrow, and he was sent back to the palace for treatment, and at this moment, ...... life and death are unknown." Bai Lan didn't dare to go down.

Huaxi was shocked, "No...... I'm going back to see my father."
