Chapter 163: Assassination
"I don't know if the third prince can be in the mansion now?" After Bai Wushuang arrived at the Three Princes' Mansion, he looked at the guards of the Three Princes' Mansion with a smile and said, they suddenly decided to come here, and they didn't hand over the greeting post in advance, which was a bit rude.
The guard glanced at Bai Wushuang lightly, and said, "You came here today, but it's a little late, and the third prince just went up the mountain to worship the Buddha. ”
"Go up the mountain and worship the Buddha?" Bai Wushuang was quite puzzled, and he had never seen that the third prince still had such an elegant taste.
The guard nodded and said, "The third prince has been a little weak since he was a child, and His Majesty always wants to be able to rely on the power of the Buddha to protect him, so His Majesty specially asked the third prince to find some time to go up the mountain every year." ”
"In that case, let's go first." Bai Wushuang said a word lightly, and pulled Chi Jingyu and the two of them away together.
Bai Wushuang walked for a long time, and suddenly remembered something, and asked, "What is the identity of the third prince?" Why is she not visible on weekdays, but His Majesty seems to be particularly fond of her. ”
Not to mention the attainments of the third prince in other aspects, he is also respected only by virtue of His Majesty's favor, not to mention that the third prince rarely enters the palace on weekdays.
"His mother is a beauty from the Western Regions." Chi Jingyu said at the beginning, as if he was caught in a memory: "It is said that his mother is a beauty that is rarely seen, and since she entered the palace, no one has seen much, and it didn't take long for her to give birth to the third prince, but this beauty has now disappeared." ”
How can things in the palace be found out so easily? After looking forward to it for so many years, the spies installed in the palace are all used to transmit extremely important information, not to mention that the beauty of the Western Regions, since she entered the palace, she has always been accompanied by the emperor.
Later, after the death of the beauties in the Western Regions, there was a palace change, and the emperor carried out a major blood change in the palace, and many of the dark lines they planted disappeared.
Hearing Chi Jingyu say this, Bai Wushuang immediately said: "In that case, let's go out and have a look, anyway, now that the most suspicious person has been determined, I don't believe that he can still run away, take this opportunity to burn incense and worship a Buddha." ”
Anyway, they are idle, and since this matter has the biggest suspicion of each other, it is better to follow up and investigate.
"Okay." Chi Jingyu said with a smile, and the two of them immediately returned to the General's Mansion, simply cleaned up, and rode away.
But I didn't expect that this time it was still empty, and when I got there, the three princes had already left, Bai Wushuang looked at the benevolent host at the door, and said lightly: "Master host, I don't know if I can see the three princes?" ”
The host nodded, pointed to the direction they had just come up, and said, "It's just that you just came up too fast, so I didn't see that the third prince had just left directly along here." ”
Bai Wushuang helplessly held his forehead, sighed, and said, "Since that's the case, then let's leave first and disturb it." ”
Both times they were in the air, which made Bai Wushuang a little depressed, and he led the horse to walk slowly behind, anyway, it was a big deal to go directly to the Three Princes' Mansion later.
"Be careful!" Chi Jingyu suddenly said loudly, and the horsewhip in his hand slammed into the direction where Bai Wushuang was, and Bai Wushuang was so frightened that he hurriedly closed his eyes.
"Let's go!" Before Bai Wushuang could react, Chi Jingyu suddenly grabbed Bai Wushuang's hand and said loudly.
Only then did Bai Wushuang react, opened his eyes, and didn't understand what Chi Jingyu was going to do just now, but saw an arrow feather wrapped around the whip branch in Chi Jingyu's hand.
"Now that you've all found out, then we don't need to hide, brothers, come out." A man in black, masked in a black scarf, only revealing a pair of sharper eyes, looked at Chi Jingyu coldly, and said.
Chi Jingyu nodded lightly, his tone was full of contempt: "I didn't inquire, I dared to take this task directly, I was only afraid that you would have the life to take the task, but you didn't kill me." ”
Chi Jingyu is still a little confident in his martial arts, not to mention that if he wants to come in this kind of place, it won't be long before the Buddhist temple will immediately send someone to support.
"Good guys, how did you end up in this place?" The third prince came out of nowhere, looked at Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang, and said lightly.
The man in black looked coldly at the three princes who suddenly appeared: "I didn't expect you to invite outsiders, could it be that you are ready in advance?" ”
Although it was at this time, but it was far away, he rushed directly with his big knife, and Nan Zhou and Bai Wushuang looked at the man in black and retreated at the same time.
"Kill it." The third prince said lightly, there seemed to be everything in his eyes, there seemed to be nothing, these people were already dead in the eyes of the third prince.
Out of nowhere, suddenly many more men in black appeared, and those people counterattacked.
The man in black who came out before saw that the current situation was not very good, and said viciously: "Sooner or later, one day, we will kill you!" Brothers, let's go first, don't kill. ”
As the voice of the man in black fell, the men in black who had been fighting together immediately wanted to retreat, and the two sides scattered.
But I didn't expect these people to be so vicious, and when they were leaving, they suddenly threw a dart over, Bai Wushuang watched the dart get closer and closer, Chi Jingyu immediately rushed over and hugged Bai Wushuang.
Blood flowed out, and Bai Wushuang frowned slightly: "Why are you so stupid!" ”
Chi Jingyu looked at Bai Wushuang, his expression was rare gentleness, fortunately there was no poison on the dart, otherwise this time Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang would be really fierce.
"There should be some herbs around here that can stop the bleeding, you wait for me." After Bai Wushuang finished saying to Chi Jingyu, he left to look for herbs, and now there was only the third prince present, and the third prince would not be stupid enough to attack Chi Jingyu, so Chi Jingyu would not have any accidents.
After all, it was in the mountains, and there were still a lot of herbs, so Bai Wushuang quickly found some herbs he needed and walked back.
"Soon your wounds will heal." After going back, looking at Chi Jingyu, Bai Wushuang said softly, and after biting the herbs, he put them on Chi Jingyu's body, the wounds on Chi Jingyu's body had long stopped bleeding, and Bai Wushuang was only worried about wound infection.
bandaged the wounds on Chi Jingyu's body, and Bai Wushuang, Chi Jingyu and the three princes went down the mountain together.
"I just heard the host say that you are looking for me, I don't know what is the matter?" The third prince suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile, he originally left directly, but remembered that he forgot to take something, so he went back.
"It's nothing, but I suddenly remembered that I hadn't visited you for a long time, so I thought about going to see you." Bai Wushuang thought about it, and still swallowed the question in his heart, originally wanted to ask, but then remembered the help of the third prince to himself and Chi Jingyu before.
If the third prince really wanted to let himself and Chi Jingyu die here, then why did he do such a thing?
The third prince nodded, sent someone to send Bai Wushuang and Chi Jingyu back, and said to the two of them before leaving: "This injury can be big or small, you should be careful no matter what, and you can't forget to take medicine after you go back." ”
The careful advice of the three princes made Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang a little dazed, originally Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang were very suspicious of the three princes, but in front of the three princes' frank performance, it seemed that their suspicions were all villains' hearts and gentlemen's bellies.
After Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang returned to the General's Mansion, Bai Wushuang directly untied the bandage on Chi Jingyu's wound, Chi Jingyu frowned slightly, and said: "The true wounds on my body are not tight, and those herbs can barely be fooled just now." ”
After all, Chi Jingyu had experienced strong winds and waves, and these wounds were nothing to Chi Jingyu at all, but Bai Wushuang was very worried.
"Those herbs just now, who said that they were found here, and they haven't done the cleaning that should be done, and they will have to clean your wounds again later." Bai Wushuang ignored Chi Jingyu's protests, said lightly, and then went to his medicine furnace to take out his medicine.
"Don't stand here, go and prepare some water." Bai Wushuang looked at the two little maids beside him and spoke, and the two of them quickly brought the clear water.
"It might hurt a little." Bai Wushuang opened the place where Chi Jingyu had placed the wine again, took a bottle of wine casually, and reminded softly.
Chi Jingyu smiled helplessly and said, "How can I be afraid of pain." In his early years on the battlefield, he had been injured more seriously than this many times, and he cleared this emotion from his mind and let Bai Wushuang smear medicine on his body.
The liquor suddenly rushed to the wound, Chi Jingyu frowned uncomfortably, he hadn't been injured for a long time, but these injuries could barely be ignored.
Bai Wushuang quickly smeared the wound with the smear, bandaged the wound and other things.
"Madam, the eldest prince is here." A little maid ran in and spoke.
Bai Wushuang nodded and said, "Go and invite the eldest prince to come in immediately, the eldest prince must have something important to discuss when he comes this time." ”
Chi Jingyu reluctantly moved his body, and then carefully walked down from the bed, provincial involvement in the wound, sat in a random place, and quietly waited for the eldest prince to come in.
"I conducted a detailed investigation into the assassination of the second prince before, and found that the shopkeeper of a nearby restaurant was from the Western Regions." As soon as the eldest prince came in, he couldn't wait to say, for Chi Jingyu and Bai Wushuang, the third prince not only did not neglect his subordinates as a boss, but his attitude towards the two of them was also extremely respectful.
