Seeing that the soldiers guarding the city were bullying the people, I was so angry that I was about to step forward, so Shen Xiao pulled me to the middle of those people in time.

"Shen Xiao, what are you doing?" I looked at him in disbelief.

Shen Xiao smiled and said softly above my head, "The opportunity has come." ”

"Opportunity?"

When I was at a loss, he lowered his head and looked at me again, a pair of starry eyes full of gentle smiles, as if the years had never passed in those eyes, just like two years ago, on a cool night, I happened to meet him in the market staring at the two ugly pearls in his hand, in order to fix him I deliberately made a sound from behind him, he was startled, and when he looked back at me, he always seemed to contain too many things that I could not understand.

Immediately after, his big hand jerked forward, causing the people who were still aggressive and trying to break through the city gate suddenly lose their center of gravity, and finally fell forward one by one, falling towards the soldiers who were holding scimitars.

Those cowards who were greedy for life and afraid of death could not stand such a fright, and when they saw them falling on themselves, they threw down all their swords and began to flee to the city without their lives.

Shen Xiao, who was dressed in a hat robe, stood behind the crowd, and suddenly a trace of killing intent appeared in his eyes, and then he flew over, stepping on the backs of several people to help, and easily reached behind the fleeing soldiers.

Immediately, the hands holding the dagger quickly wiped the necks of those people, and the blood immediately gushed out.

"Su'er"

After those people fell down together, Shen Xiao stood in the blood-colored fountain and smiled at me, and the fierce expression on his face when he killed someone had now changed to mildness, as if nothing had happened.

I looked at the people around me who were lying on their backs and fell to the ground, and finally I had to step forward with great difficulty and put my hand on his.

In a few moments, the news of the killing of the soldiers defending the city spread, because of this incident, even the security in Shuocheng became more stringent, and the soldiers in the battalion patrolled back and forth on the street, and immediately stepped forward to arrest them indiscriminately when they saw a suspicious figure.

Fortunately, Shen Xiao and I are not too weak, and it didn't take much effort to avoid those people, and we were currently stopping in a small alley.

"Where are we going now?"

On the bluestone brick wall in front of me, I poked my head out and looked at the soldiers who were checking passers-by not far away.

Shen Xiao behind him was silent for a moment, and then grabbed my arm, "Su'er, I used to be wrong too much, and now I don't want to continue to be wrong." ”

"You" looked at his serious face, and I was a little overwhelmed, "What are you talking about?" ”

Shen Xiao looked at me fixedly, and the light in his eyes moved slightly, "Haven't you always suspected that the second prince was actually imprisoned by Dugu Ao?" I sent someone to inquire, the front should be Dugu Ao's mansion in Lianshuo City, wait a minute, I'll go and lure away those people outside, you take the opportunity to sneak in and see, but there are many dangers here, remember not to stay longer, even if you find the second prince inside, you must come out immediately, and the matter of saving people needs to be considered in the long run. ”

"No, how can I put you at risk?"

You must know that although Shen Xiao's martial arts are more than enough to deal with those soldiers, but the other party has more than 100 people, even if Shen Xiao's martial arts are high, it is impossible to defeat one against a hundred, if those people attack him in groups, then Shen Xiao will not be able to bear it.

However, Shen Xiao suddenly laughed when he saw my frowning, "You care about me? ”

As the corners of his mouth rose, a small round dimple appeared on the thin lips, adding a touch of brightness to his beautiful face.

I was stunned for a moment, and then fell into deep thought.

It turns out that Shen Xiao has dimples when he laughs? Why does he seem to have no smile in my memory?

Or, I didn't actually pay attention to him at all, so if you think about it carefully, since we met, it seems that I have been imposing my will on him, whether it was letting him enter the palace with me in the first place, or letting him take me to Fengcheng willfully, all of this he was accommodating me.

Even later, he suddenly became an important minister above the Xianyu High Hall, and I didn't even ask him why he became like this, and I blindly marked him as a bad guy in my heart.

Now that I think about it, a lot of things are obviously my fault! Even though he became a bad person in everyone's eyes, he never changed to me.

After a long time, Shen Xiao saw that I didn't speak, so he raised his hand and nodded my forehead, "You are still thinking nonsense at such a critical juncture!" ”

When I came back to my senses and saw him smiling, I couldn't help but feel a lot of guilt in my heart.

"Shen Xiao"

I opened my mouth softly, looking at him with a calm and breezy look, my heart suddenly suffocated, "Obviously you have done so much for me, but I can't feel it at all, I'm sorry!" ”

After listening to my words, Shen Xiao's figure shook slightly, and then, as if to hide something, he hurriedly turned his back to me, but his voice trembled a little, "Now, what are you doing all of a sudden?" ”

"I want to"

Raising my eyes, I took a deep look at his somewhat lonely back, then walked behind him lightly, and continued in a low voice, "I appreciate everything you have done, but from now on, you don't have to do anything for me again!" In the future, let's live for yourself! ”

"You" Shen Xiao reacted, and looked back at me in shock.

However, before I could make any moves, I used all my strength to hit the back of the neck, and my body fell to the ground with a bang.

"You can sleep here now, and when you wake up, find a place where no one knows and start over."

I sighed softly, then raised my hand to cover him with the few broken baskets piled up in the alley.

After confirming that it was correct, he took a deep breath and walked out of the alley, walking in the direction of Dugu Ao's mansion.

Because I know very well that with Dugu Ao and the emperor's suspicious character, there must be killers on the walls and roofs at this time, if I want to walk from the wall, it is equivalent to admitting that my identity is suspicious without confessing myself, so I will only die faster.

And if you take the road openly, maybe with the IQ of those fools, you may not be able to see the clues.

At that time, I walked to the house where Dugu Ao lived with some luck in my heart, but the patrolling soldiers really showed me quickly.

"Stop! Who? There was a cold cry behind him.

Forced by the large number of people on the other side, I had to stand still, and waited for them to circle around from behind me before carefully raising my eyelids.

Seeing that those soldiers were staring at me suspiciously, he deliberately sneered again, "Yo, it turned out to be an official!" The slave family has eyes and does not know Mount Tai, and it is the fault of the slave family that they collided with everyone! ”

The soldier raised his chin arrogantly and squinted his eyes slightly to look at me, "Who are you?" I don't know that now that the whole city is under martial law, can't you just go out? ”

"This," I looked at the soldier in embarrassment, and muttered for a while before saying, "I really don't hide it from the officials, there is no rice at home!" At that time, there was a shortage of food and clothing, and there were children at home who were waiting to be fed, if the slave family did not come out to find something to eat, I am afraid that the whole family would starve to death! ”

After I finished speaking, the expression on the soldier's face did not change at all, but he was suspicious, "Even so, you are a woman who received a notice of martial law in the whole city, and you know that there are Jin thieves hiding in this city, and you dare to come out alone?" Do you really not take your life seriously? Or do you think we're stupid? ”

After saying that, the soldier commanded behind him, "Arrest this woman quickly, maybe she is the one who killed our brother guarding the city gate!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the group of soldiers behind him surrounded him.

"Wait!"

I hurriedly snorted and said with a smile, "Where did you start with this, the slave family is really desperate to come out to find food, the slave family is a good person, if you don't believe it, you can go home with me to see, but a few days ago, the mother of the family has just returned from visiting relatives in Qintong, and her body is a little unwell, but you can rest assured, the mother is just a little typhoid fever, if the official does not dislike it, then you might as well go with the slave family to see the truth." ”

After saying that, I deliberately covered my lips and coughed lightly twice.

"Qintong?"

The faces of those soldiers really became extremely ugly the moment they heard these two words, and then many of them retreated silently as if they were avoiding the plague.

After hesitating for a moment, he covered his nose and lips and said with disgust, "Since you are sick, you should stay at home and have nothing to do with it!" ”

When the soldier had finished speaking, he did not wait for my answer, but led the people to turn around in a hurry.

I smiled secretly, and simply stopped being polite to those people, and walked along the end of the long street.

However, what I didn't expect was that the soldier had not even taken a few steps before he sensed that something was wrong.

"Stop!"

There was another cold drink behind him.

I had a big alarm in my heart, so I had to look back and smile quietly, "What else does the official command?" ”

The soldier for the sake of the soldier, his eyes were as sharp as a knife at me, "Who are you?" ”

"Official, didn't I say that? I'm just an ordinary woman! "I made a very innocent appearance.

"Really?" The soldier was still staring at me intently, but his fingers pulled out a yellow piece of parchment from his sleeve.

Then I saw the man spread out the parchment and slowly held it up in front of me, with a sinister expression on his face, "Still trying to deceive people?" You are the second princess who was wanted by the emperor! ”

Seeing that the matter was exposed, I stopped pretending to be garlic, took out the dagger hidden in my sleeve, turned around and ran to the place where there were few people.

But the soldier could not allow the opportunity to make a great contribution to run away so easily, so he shouted behind him, "Give me chase!" Kill her! ”

Wonderful!
