Chapter 21: Failure

The topic of killers came to an abrupt end.

"They will not go and return, and the emperor is not in any danger for the time being. The rest will be handled by the prince, and you will go back and rest. ”

Everyone turned to look at Xiao Fangzhi, who was belated, with different expressions.

The prince came at a good time!

The emperor fainted, the assassin ran away, the dust settled, he came!

Xiao Fangzhi received the news of the emperor's assassination, mobilized the forbidden army, and rushed to the palace with 100,000 troops, but when he arrived, the matter had come to an end.

The emperor was unconscious, and the palace people carried him back to the dormitory, without worrying about his life.

All the Assassins ran away, none of them were caught, and many of the palace guards died, while the other guards searched for the Assassins around the palace.

Xiao Fangzhi came to everyone, and saw their momentary gaze, which had obvious meaning, pretended not to understand, and said admittedly: "Thank you for saving your father, this great grace is remembered in my heart." ”

Han Ying said: "It is our duty to protect the emperor, and the prince does not need to take it to heart." It's just that there was a little accident in the middle, which caused the emperor to fall unconscious, and if the emperor was held accountable afterwards, he hoped that the prince would help with a few kind words. ”

Everyone heard the meaning of Han Ying's words, he was worried that the emperor would settle accounts afterwards.

Although Zi Ling kicked him away to save him, in the heart of the Ninety-Five Supreme, Zi Ling made him lose face with one kick, and it was difficult to ensure that he would not trouble Zi Ling afterwards.

Therefore, Hanying made it clear to the prince in advance.

After hearing what happened, Xiao Fangzhi said: "Ziling made this decision in order to save his father, if his father blames him, he will not sit idly by." ”

Glancing left and right, he asked, "Where is Ziling?" Why don't you see him? ”

Yu Ziling left when he came over, and with him disappeared with the empty shadow, the empty shadow was left in the palace without them knowing, and it would be very troublesome for the prince to see it.

Han Ying said: "Ziling should go back." Prince, after the battle just now, we are exhausted, and the current situation is not suitable for protecting the emperor, please send another guard to protect the emperor, and let me say goodbye. ”

"Okay, you go back and rest. The Orphan Society sent people to protect the safety of his father. ”

······

······

It didn't end with the Assassin's departure.

The crown prince ordered the forbidden palace to be blocked, and those who attended the palace banquet today were not allowed to leave the palace until they were cleared of suspicion.

It was rude to do so to a foreign envoy.

However, the assassination of the emperor is not trivial, and before the investigation is clear, everyone can't get rid of suspicion.

What was supposed to be a day of joy and celebration was filled with tension and fear by the Assassins.

When the emperor wakes up tomorrow, no one knows what earth-shaking changes will happen in the court?

These things had nothing to do with Yu Ziling, and when he was separated from the empty shadow, he went back to the other courtyard directly.

Guan Sheng is not in the courtyard, the news of the emperor's assassination is no longer a secret, and the people in the palace are strictly interrogated.

Of course, these things have nothing to do with him either.

He poured a glass of cooled water from the table and walked into the inner room, with no intention of resting.

Yu Ziling came to the window and stood against the window, his eyes could not find the corner point, so he could only raise his eyes to look at the night sky.

Looking into Haoyue's eyes, his mind wandered, and his mind recalled the previous battle with the Assassin.

Every move, every style of the assassin, is very much like a person!

The same moves, even the offensive skills are surprisingly similar.

The only difference is that compared with her, this person is sharp, ruthless and decisive, and has the power to be domineering under his moves.

This power was the gap between her and the Assassins.

The short sword he was carrying was taken out by him again.

The scabbard is ordinary, there is nothing special, this is what he casually found someone to do.

Drawing out the short sword, the cold light whispered, and the iron was sharpened like clay, this was a rare sword.

Got it, because of an accident, the time she left Tingshan, for the sake of Qianzhi, she threw a short sword and injured the back of his hand, so the short sword fell to the ground until she left and was picked up by him.

Another......

Yu Ziling picked up the sword spike in the palm of his hand, and under the embellishment of the sword spike, it was a piece of exquisite and transparent clotted warm jade.

It is very cold in the palm of your hand, and you can feel a trace of warmth after holding it for a long time, which is shallow and not real.

This is what she left behind, and she sprinkled a 'for you', and it has become his thing since then.

The short sword and the jade pendant, one didn't have time to return it, and the other didn't need to be returned......

It's all her stuff, and he hung the jade pendant on the short sword to become a sword spike, and the short sword was always on his body.

An unknown existence, if it weren't for the urgency of today's situation, he wouldn't have brought it out.

Yu Ziling concluded that the short sword was the reason why the assassins chose to retreat!

He was not mistaken, the Assassin saw the dagger with a fleeting moment of disbelief in his eyes.

She wears remnant snow.

Remnant Xue is the sword of the valley lord of the Ruthless Valley, and in her hands, her status in the Ruthless Valley can be seen.

The Assassin was from the Valley of Ruthless, and because he recognized it as her dagger, he was reluctant to confront him, or even an enemy, until he knew why the dagger was in his hands.

So, can't you be wrong?

However, he could not understand the assassination of the emperor.

The assassination of the Emperor was extraordinary, even though she was an assassin, she should never have done this in her capacity, but bypassed this mission.

If it was found out that she was behind the scenes, she would definitely provoke a war between the two countries, why did she do it?

Closing the jade pendant in his hand, Yu Ziling sighed slightly.

Does this have anything to do with him?

It seems to be okay?

Even if it does, it doesn't matter much.

……

……

Compared with the chaotic palace, the capital has not yet been affected, the doors are closed, people fall asleep, and what you see is a lonely night.

A room with a closed door suddenly opened from the outside, and the crunch of the bolt breaking broke the silence of the night, and the people who tossed and turned in bed and could not sleep jumped up.

Sitting on the bed, his eyes stared at the man in black who came in at some point.

opened his mouth silently, and could only hear the man in black speak: "Tell your master, the mission has failed, we don't want his things, and he doesn't have to come to us again." ”

When the words fell, the man in black disappeared in front of him in an instant, and he was the only one in the empty room, and the arrival of the man seemed to be just his dream.

Nightmare!

The master has not returned from the palace, but this person tells him that the mission has failed!

If it doesn't work out, they will leave first, what will the master do? What should they do?

Despair enveloped him invisibly, wrapped tightly in the quilt, and the whole person trembled uncontrollably.

Suburbs.

The other nightcrawlers who were waiting there greeted the people who came over.

"Big brother, are we really leaving? If this spreads, how can the face of the ruthless valley remain? Giving up halfway, how do we gain a foothold? ”

"Yes, big brother, our mission has not failed. Just now you fought him, and our men have already appeared at the emperor's side, ready to hit with one blow. I don't understand, big brother, why did you suddenly order a retreat, otherwise we would definitely be able to kill the emperor. ”

Speaking of this, their eldest brother slapped off the tree next to him with one palm, and gritted his teeth: "There is a traitor on our side, that thing is in his hands, what can he do if he doesn't leave?" ”

Angry and unwilling, he looks like a cannibal.

"Traitor?"

Everyone shouted in surprise, looked at each other, and shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know about it.

"A traitor has appeared in the valley? How can it be? ”

"Yes, I don't believe it either, big brother, who do you say is a traitor?"

"Tell us that we will break him to pieces when we go back."

"That's right, betraying the Ruthless Valley, this kind of person is not a pity to die."

Everyone will be suspicious, and at the same time, full of righteous indignation, the traitors who have not yet been found out will be severely punished......

The assassin's big brother's dark eyes were filled with rage: "You're right, you can't spare this guy." Full of nonsense, doing things without measure, just wanton! Back in the valley, I'm going to ask her if she has anything else to say! ”

In the darkness of the night, the voices faded away until they died down.

The rustle of new leaves accompanies the quiet night until dawn!
