Chapter 52: Salvation

Lin Jia stared at Hu Yingzhi and did not move.

Who knows if this is another trap?

The lantern in Kunpeng's hand emitted a dim halo, illuminating Hu Yingzhi's beautiful face like a person in a painting.

With a sincere smile on the corner of his mouth, he looked at Lin Jia quietly.

Between killing Lin Jia and taking refuge in Lin Jia, he has already made a choice, and he will naturally stick to his choice.

At this moment, there was another sound of footsteps outside, followed by the conversation of several men:

"Is this really the alley?"

"It's this alley!"

"Could it be that they are hiding in some house? Do you want to search next to each other? ”

Yu Yu heard the conversation outside the door, and there was some fear in her heart, and she couldn't help but tremble.

She looked at Lin Jia's statue-like handsome face and thin outline, knowing that she had to be brave and protect Lin Jia, so she took a deep breath and reached out to hold Lin Jia's hand.

Lin Jia's hands were as slender and cold as ever.

Yu Yu held her breath and heard the following words-"...... Don't startle the snake just yet"!

The sound of speech grew farther and farther away with the footsteps, and gradually became inaudible.

Hu Yingzhi waved his hand lightly: "Lord Lin, please!"

Kunpeng hurriedly led the way with a lantern.

Lin Jia reached out to hold Yu Yu's hand and led her forward.

Maybe there is a wolf in front of him and a tiger in the back, but isn't life like this, anyway, even if he is going to die, before he dies, he has to do his best to protect Yu Yu!

Yu Yu was stunned for a moment, raised her eyes to look at Lin Jia, and then made up an explanation in her own mind - Lin Jia must be too scared and wants to draw energy from me!

Thinking like this, she was relieved, and happily walked forward by Lin Jia's hand.

Hu Yingzhi walked behind, watching Lin Jia and Yu Yu holding hands, his mood was very complicated.

Kunpeng lit the lantern and led everyone into Hu Yingzhi's study.

Lin Jia was okay, as soon as Yu Yu entered, he was sweating from the heat, and said, "It's so hot!"

Hu Yingzhi looked at Yu Yu with some suspicion: "Is it really that hot?"

Yu Yu nodded honestly: "It's really hot!"

Hu Yingzhi first asked Lin Jia to sit down, and then instructed Kunpeng: "Open the window!"

Kunpeng walked over and pushed the window open.

Hu Yingzhi, who was sitting by the window, felt a little cold, and wrapped the snow-white fox fur on his body tightly.

Lin Jia, who was sitting next to him, saw it and said in his heart: Hu Yingzhi's body is probably not as good as me!

A cold breath mixed with the fragrance of wax plum slowly came in, and Yu Yu deliberately walked to the window, took a deep breath, and felt much more comfortable.

She stood behind Hu Yingzhi, and at some point she had already held an amethyst butterfly hairpin in her hand.

Lin Jia groaned slightly, and said, "Lord Hu, why don't you send this little guy of yours to the county government to help me invite Ye Guard!"

Now it seems that Hu Yingzhi's family should only have Hu Yingzhi and this little guy named Kunpeng at this time, if Kunpeng is asked to find Ye Chunshan to report the news, and Hu Yingzhi is allowed to stay, it can prevent Kunpeng from calling those who are chasing him over.

Hu Yingzhi was extremely smart, so he naturally knew Lin Jia's intentions, so he agreed with a smile and instructed Kunpeng: "You go to the county government to find Ye guards, and let Ye guards bring people to pick up Lord Lin!"

Kunpeng agreed, and was about to retreat, but Yu Yu smiled and said, "I'll close the door with you!"

Kunpeng, the little guy, looked at the thin and small, about fourteen or fifteen years old, looking childish, and when he saw Yu Yu coming over, he smiled and led Yu Yu out.

Yu Yu's heart has been hanging there, always on guard against Kunpeng's sudden attack, and when Kunpeng goes out, she bolted the latch of the door, and then she breathed a sigh of relief, only to feel that her back was cool and shady - just now because of nervousness, a layer of fine sweat broke out on her back!

In the study, Hu Yingzhi was asking Lin Jia: "Lord Lin, who sent these assassins outside, do you have any ideas in your heart?"

In fact, he has roughly determined in his heart, and it is estimated that it is related to the fact that there is no heir in today's son - if there is no heir today, the important ministers in the court have repeatedly been neglected, and Emperor Yongtai has been asked to select suitable people from among the sons of the county kings to raise under his knees, if Lin Jia is the nephew of the Son of Heaven, then the person who assassinated him was naturally sent by the sons of other county kings!

Seeing that Hu Yingzhi began to probe him, Lin Jia lowered his eyes and sighed, and said straight to the point: "My mother is the princess Jiang of Xingping County."

Sooner or later, his identity will be revealed, in this case, it is better to try to win over Hu Yingzhi first.

Although Hu Yingzhi had already guessed that Lin Jia was the son of the king of Xingping County, he did not expect that Lin Jia was actually the son of the princess Jiang of Xingping County.

He got up and walked in front of Lin Jia, and saluted Lin Jia in a dignified manner: "Hu is not talented, and he is willing to serve the adult!"

Lin Jia smiled slightly, got up and helped Hu Yingzhi up, and said with a smile: "Okay, Lin has won Lord Hu, so he is naturally like a tiger!"

Both of them were satisfied, and they sat down with a smile and continued to chat.

Yu Yu heard it all outside the door, and when he was at this time, he smiled and said, "Two adults, do you want me to boil water and make tea?"

Hu Yingzhi saw that Yu Yu's smile was sweet and cute, and his heart couldn't help but be shocked, and a wave of emotions similar to sourness spread in his heart, he smiled slightly, and said: "It's good for Miss Yu to accompany the adults in the study, I'll let the little girl make tea!"

When Yu Yu heard this, she was shocked - it turned out that Hu Yingzhi still had a small servant at home!

She raised her eyes to look at Lin Jia.

Lin Jia glanced at her and lowered her eyes.

There is no doubt in employing people, no suspicion in people, since he chose to believe Hu Yingzhi, he believed it to the end!

Hu Yingzhi looked at Lin Jia, and saw that Lin Jia had no intention of refusing, so he called "Eagle".

The eagle, who had been staying in the west wing, came over and saluted.

He was a thin black man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, and he was born very strong.

Hu Yingzhi said with a smile: "Send the tip of the pot to the tip!"

The eagle said yes and stepped back.

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from outside.

Everyone in the room was startled, Hu Yingzhi hurriedly got up to look, Yu Yu glanced at Lin Jia, and also went out.

Lin Jia groaned slightly, and also got up.

They stood behind the gate, listening to the screams, muffled grunts, and the crisp sound of fierce metal clashing outside.

Yu Yu felt that she had even heard the sharp and ugly sound of the knife slashing against her bones, and she couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Seeing this, Lin Jia walked to Yu Yu's side and stretched out his arm to wrap around Yu Yu's waist.

At this time, there was a scream, followed by a "poof", which seemed to be the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Then Ah Lan's clear voice sounded: "Where are we?"

The man didn't seem to say anything, but Ah Lan said coldly: "Don't you say it?" Then let's take a look at the stakes of the little brother! ”

Immediately afterwards, Yu Yu and the others heard a "click", which seemed to be the sound of bones being stepped on.

Lin Jia said softly: "Is it Ah Lan?"

There was silence outside, followed by Alan's joyful voice - "Childe? Son! ”

Yu Yu breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to open the door.

Outside stood Ah Lan with tears in her eyes.

Ah Lan was carrying a sharp Pu knife in his hand, which was still dripping with blood, and there were several corpses lying or lying on his stomach on the ground.

His eyes were full of joy, he looked at Lin Jia blankly, and then knelt down on one knee: "Childe, I'm sorry, Ah Lan is useless!"

As she spoke, Ah Lan wiped the tears from her eyes.

Seeing Ah Lan, Lin Jia's heart slowly returned to the distance, and said, "It's good that you're here."

Then he asked, "What about the Assassins?"

Ah Lan got up and looked at Lin Jia, her slender eyes were as calm as water: "Yu Gongzi, the six assassins were all killed by the minions, and the corpses are all in this alley."

Lin Jiayou looked around, looked around, and saw that the doors of the people around him were closed and the lights were blind, obviously because he was afraid of provoking the fire, so he said: "These corpses have to be cleaned up as soon as possible!"

At this moment, a rapid and dense sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and everyone looked over, and Ah Lan was holding a knife in front of Lin Jia.

Riding a horse galloped over Ye Chunshan and a team of guards, the guards were still holding torches in their hands, followed by Kunpeng, who was also riding a horse.

At this time, Yu Yu was convinced that he and Lin Jia were really out of danger, and couldn't help laughing.

Seeing Yu Yu's lovely smile, Lin Jia's heart that had been carrying it also let go, and her heart was relieved.

He clenched Yu Yu's hand and said in a deep voice, "Let's go back to the county government first."

Hu Yingzhi stood beside him, looking at Yu Yu's clear eyes full of smiles, and his heart relaxed.
