Chapter 103: The Assassin Returns
* The effect is very good, and after a while I hear a "bang" in the house...... Bang", it was the sound of the tea bowl breaking, followed by the sound of Concubine Dong and Concubine Tong falling to the ground, and only after the man was sure that everyone in the room had fainted, he pushed the door open and came in.
After coming in, he ignored Concubine Dong and Concubine Tong, and went directly at Tian Yao, looking at Tian Yao who was lying on the bed lifeless, the man in black raised the sword in his hand and was about to stab, but at the last moment, someone blocked his sword, and this person was the secret guard that Mo Jingli arranged to protect Tian Yao's safety.
The two fought quickly, and the man in black repeatedly wanted to cross the dark guard to kill Tian Yao, but it was always a little bit close, and in the end, the dark guard was afraid that the movement of the two would be too noisy to Tian Yao, and he was ready to transfer the scene outside, but the man in black was also very strong, and the two fought comparably.
At this time, the imperial physician Wang who had boiled the medicine happened to come over, and after seeing the two people who were fighting, the imperial physician Wang was very frightened, seeing that the man in black was obviously coming for last night, and in extreme panic, he threw out a bowl of hot medicine, which happened to be thrown on the face of the man in black.
The man in black was caught off guard and was splashed on his face by a bowl of hot medicine, the burning pain in his heart slowed down his movements, and the dark guard took this opportunity to subdue the man in black, and the sharp sword rested on the neck of the man in black and asked, "Say, who sent you?" Why kill the princess. ”
The man in black didn't speak, but smiled weirdly, and the imperial physician realized what he wanted to do, and immediately shouted to the dark guard: "Be careful, he will kill himself."
However, it was still too late, and the man in black bit through the poison he had hidden in his mouth for a long time, and the poison sealed his throat with blood, and there was no room for treatment.
Imperial Physician Wang looked at the man in black who fell to the ground, and there was nothing he could do for a while, so he had to wake up Concubine Dong and Concubine Tong first, and when Mo Jingli came, he saw the man in black who fell to the ground and died, and said angrily: "Check for this king, dig three feet into the ground and find out who sent this person."
The secret guard and the guards in the palace went to check after receiving the order, but they never found out the identity of the man in black, so they had to go back to the house and tell Mo Jingli in frustration: "Lord Wang, his subordinates are incompetent, and the identity of the assassin has not been found out, please punish the prince."
Mo Jingli just waved his hand and said: "Okay, the punishment will be said when the princess wakes up, and now send more people to protect the princess, this king doesn't want today's incident to happen again."
This time, the man in black was not able to succeed, and Tian Yao escaped again, but Mo Jingli and Mo Yufei were even busier, and they were so busy every day that their feet did not touch the ground.
Mo Jingli manages some affairs of the court officials every day, sometimes he doesn't even have time to return to the palace for a whole day, even if he returns to the palace, there are many people looking for him to deal with things, he either stays in the palace or stays in the study of the palace to deal with official business, and sometimes he can't see Tian Yao all day.
On this day, Mo Jingli brought Zhao Hu first, and the two met in the study, and as soon as they met, Zhao Hu asked Mo Jingli: "I don't know what the prince has to tell when he is looking for his subordinates?" ink
"Brother Zhao, this king has a very important matter that I want to ask you to help with, I don't know if Brother Zhao is willing to help me with this, originally I did this matter personally, but you have also seen it in the past few days, the emperor has sent me so many affairs, and I can't disobey the order, so I have to ask Brother Zhao for help." Mo Jingli looked at Zhao Hu and said.
"Lord Wang, you and my brother, you don't have to be polite to me, what do you want me Zhao Hu to do, but the prince said it's okay, I, Zhao Hu, go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, and I will not give up." Zhao Hu looked at Mo Jingli, patted his chest, and said arrogantly.
"Brother Zhao laughed, it's not as serious as you think, how could this king let Brother Zhao go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire? This king just wants Brother Zhao to help protect the princess of this king, something has happened these days, the princess of this king has been poisoned, and now although someone has gone to find the antidote, but someone keeps assassinating her, so I want to ask Brother Zhao to protect her secretly. Mo Jingli said sincerely.
"What? Princess Qi was poisoned? Someone else wants to kill her? How so? Zhao Hu asked in surprise.
Then he said: "Prince Qi rest assured, the safety of Princess Qi will be handed over to me Zhao Hu, if you want to hurt Princess Qi, I, Zhao Hu, will definitely let him go and not return, and promise not to hurt half of the princess's hair, and his subordinates will definitely protect the safety of Princess Qi, and the prince will concentrate on the task assigned to you by the emperor."
Mo Jing, the king of Qi, is very busy here, and Mo Yufei, the king of Sui, is not much better than Mo Jingli, Mo Jingli's mind is annoyed by officials from all walks of life every day, and Mo Yufei is arranged by the guards inside and outside the palace, he is also very busy, and he has no free time to go to the Qi Wangfu to see Tian Yao.
However, unlike Mo Jingli's impatience, although Mo Yufei is busy every day, he has always been unflustered, after all, he only needs to tell him to do many things, and he doesn't have to do everything himself, so it is naturally much better than Mo Jingli, who lives in the hot water every day.
……
After Mo Jingli and Zhao Hu stayed in the study for a while, after Mo Jingli explained the matter to Zhao Hu, Zhao Hu gave up his hand and said: "Lord Wang, my subordinates will go to the residence of the princess Niangniang to protect Niangniang now, the prince doesn't have to worry, there will be no accident with me in the princess, I will do my best to protect her."
At this time, in the courtyard where Tian Yao was, a group of black-clothed assassins suddenly appeared, and the secret guards protecting Tian Yao in the courtyard immediately appeared after seeing the assassins appear, and the two parties quickly fought together, and the secret guards strictly blocked Tian Yao's room, preventing the assassins from having a chance to get close here.
After Concubine Dong and Concubine Tong, who were in the house, heard the sound of swords colliding, their faces turned pale with fright, and Concubine Tong muttered, "What should I do?" What are we going to do? Why hasn't the prince come yet? How could those wine bags and rice bags outside stop those assassins? ”
Concubine Dong was also so frightened that she didn't know what to do, so she didn't sit outside at the moment, she ran to the inside and looked at Tian Yao, thinking of what Mo Jingli had said before, she became more and more scared, if Tian Yao made a mistake today, they might not be able to live, right?
Concubine Tong saw Concubine Dong running inside, and also ran in, seeing Concubine Dong looking at Tian Yao on the bed, she asked puzzledly: "When is this, do you still have the heart to look at her, is your life important or her life important?" The most important thing now is that we need to find a place to hide, otherwise, what will happen to those assassins when they come in? ”
Concubine Dong ignored Concubine Tong, looked at Tian Yao on the bed, and after a while, as if she was ready for something, climbed onto Tian Yao's bed, moved Tian Yao inside, moved to the foot of the bed, and then hid on the bed herself, so that when the assassin came in, she would only see Concubine Dong hiding on the bed, and could not see Tian Yao who was moved to the foot of the bed.
Concubine Tong, who was already frightened, saw Concubine Dong hiding on the bed, and immediately followed, hiding beside Concubine Dong and complaining: "You can do it!" If you find a place to hide, you don't know how to call me, do you just hope that I will be killed by these assassins, and you will be able to monopolize the prince, right? ”
"Let me tell you, Concubine Dong, I won't let your tricks succeed, I will follow you firmly, don't you want to leave me alone and run for your life, the two of us want to live together, and if you die, I will pull you on your back." Concubine Tong looked at Concubine Dong viciously.
Concubine Dong was speechless, looked at Concubine Tong, rolled her eyes very ungracefully and said: "Come up, come up, what are you doing with so much nonsense, for fear that the assassin will not know that you are lying on the bed?" Also, be careful, don't step on Tian Yao, otherwise I won't cover you, and I won't be killed by anyone at that time, but by the prince. ”
"Humph! I thought you wanted to exchange Tian Yao's life, but you're not that smart! I really think highly of you, I didn't expect that you are not only afraid of the prince now, but also Tian Yao, it's really useless. Concubine Tong looked at Concubine Dong with a look of contempt on her face.
"Shut up, Concubine Tong, we've been fighting each other for so long, how can I find out that you're so brainless? It's stupid at this point. Concubine Dong looked at Concubine Tong who was about to cry with disdain, and her eyes were full of disdain and ridicule for Concubine Tong's appearance.
When Concubine Tong heard that Concubine Dong dared to insult her like this, she stretched out her hand to push Concubine Dong under the bed, and said with a curse in her mouth: "Hmph! Slut, you dare to insult me like this, I must make you pay the price today, you go down for me, I don't want to stay in the same bed with you for a second, you go down for me! ”
"What are you doing? Concubine Tong, do you want to be ashamed, obviously you followed me up, and now you actually said to let me go down, why are you so cheap? Concubine Dong was angered by Concubine Tong's words, and for a while, she didn't care what time it was, she just wanted to push Concubine Tong off the bed.
The two of them are like this, you don't let me, I won't let you, while arguing, pushing and shoving to push each other off the bed.
Suddenly, "Bang." With a bang, an assassin broke through the window, Concubine Tong looked at the assassin with a fierce look, and was so frightened that she pulled Concubine Dong and didn't dare to move.
"You let go of me, hold me like this, do you want the two of us to die here together? Let it go......" Concubine Dong wanted to cry and looked at Concubine Tong who was desperately grabbing her without tears.
And when the assassin broke through the window and came in, he saw Concubine Dong and Concubine Tong pulling on the bed, and from his point of view, he couldn't see Tian Yao at the foot of the bed, so the assassin was a little stunned, could it be that their information was wrong, Tian Yao's residence was not here?
Otherwise, how could it be the current situation, but soon the assassin came back to his senses, originally "I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let go of one", the assassin decided to ignore whether the other party was Tian Yao or not, anyway, they were all women from the Qi Wangfu, and if they were killed, they would be killed, and it was nothing.
Thinking like this, she raised her feet and walked over to Concubine Dong and Concubine Tong, Concubine Dong looked at the slowly approaching assassin, full of anxiety, what should I do? What to do? If the assassins had gotten closer and could see Tian Yao at the foot of the bed, wouldn't they have been able to escape this catastrophe today?
"What to do? He's coming, what are we going to do? Concubine Tong grabbed Concubine Dong's arm with both hands, her nails were about to tear her clothes and sink into the flesh, but at this time, Concubine Dong couldn't take care of her arm at all, she could only look at the assassin who was getting closer and closer, she didn't dare to do it, she could only do it in a hurry.
