Chapter 663: I'm here to save my life
"Quick...... Save me......" Xia Yubing raised his hand and waved at the old palace maid standing in front of him.
Just like when she was about to die at the hands of those gangsters, she couldn't even protect her own children.
"Quick, quick, Zhiqi—" Zhao Rong quickly recovered from her surprise and beckoned Zhiqi in the room.
Zhiqi ran out of the house in response, and when she saw Zhao Rong nervously greeting herself, she couldn't help but step forward to take a hand, and helped Xia Yubing into the house with Zhao Rong.
"You...... Go and sweep the snow marks clean......" Xia Yubing did not forget to instruct.
The snow in the yard was clean, but the snow marks she brought with her would leak her tracks.
"Zhiqi, hurry up and do it." Zhao Rong also ordered tightly.
Zhiqi didn't say anything, picked up the broom and hurried out.
It seems that Zhao Rong recognizes this injured woman, and Zhao Rong is most concerned about the second prince in her life, which means that this woman may be related to the second prince. Thinking of Ximen Marks, Zhiqi didn't dare to slack off, and quickly cleaned up the snow in the courtyard, and the snow stained with Xia Yu's ice blood was also covered by her under the snowdrift.
As soon as the sweep was over, the pursuers arrived.
Zhiqi was taken aback, didn't know that Zhao Rong could hide that person in the house?
Zhiqi stood beside the snowdrift with a broom, pretending to be calm and looking at the guards who had broken into the courtyard.
"Miss Zhiqi, I'm sorry." The commander of the guards knows Zhiqi.
Zhiqi nodded lightly and pretended to be puzzled and asked, "What are you doing here?" ”
"Didn't Miss Zhiqi see an assassin break in?" The commander of the guards asked and observed the courtyard.
Zhiqi shook her head.
"I'm sorry, it's a big deal, I've offended the second prince." The guards commanded. As he spoke, he didn't give Zhiqi a chance to stop him at all, and waved his hand, "Search!" ”
At this time, Zhao Rong also came out of the house and asked puzzledly, "My lord, what's wrong?" The old slave has always lived here, and he has done his duty......"
"It's none of your business, the emperor was assassinated, and now the situation in the palace is tense, we must strictly investigate to prevent assassins from causing trouble in the palace, which is also for everyone's safety. Fortunately, the palace wall is not easy to break through, that woman has been poisoned by an arrow, and she can't escape, so we just need to find out as soon as possible. ”
The commander of the guards kept an eye on the courtyard as he spoke.
Originally, I thought that the emperor didn't have to change, but Ximen Jinglie was assassinated when he left the palace, and the owner of this palace was bound to change, as the commander of the guards, if he wanted to sit in front of the new emperor, he had to show merit, first of all, the assassin who broke into the palace was a big fish given to him.
The small courtyard is not big, and it will be searched all over in a short time.
"Commander Qiyu, I didn't find it."
"No?" The commander of the guards was puzzled, and the bloodstains he was looking for were broken near this courtyard, and there was an open space around him, and only this courtyard was suitable for hiding.
He didn't believe how far a wounded and poisoned man could escape.
"My lord, this courtyard is so big, the second prince is not here, there are only two of us women......" Zhao Rong blocked Zhiqi, who was holding the broom and sweating palms, without a trace.
Seeing that no one had been found, the commander of the guards could not just stare at this one place, so he immediately ordered to continue the search around.
After everyone left, Zhao Rong closed the courtyard door before patting her chest and letting out a sigh.
She was also afraid, but she had lived so much in the palace and knew how to hide herself better.
"Aunt Rong." Zhiqi shouted, her voice still trembling a little.
"Go back to the house." Zhao Rong said in a low voice and walked into the house first.
Zhiqi then stepped in, and before she could stand on her feet, she was choked by a cold hand.
"Miss Xia, don't worry, Zhiqi is very reliable, she won't leak secrets." Zhao Rong hurriedly persuaded beside her.
"I believe in you." Xia Yubing let go of her hand and sat down on the bed.
Zhao Rong rubbed her chest, "After the palace turmoil, the second prince secretly built this secret grid to prevent him from hiding in case of anything else, and he didn't want to save the girl today." ”
"It seems that Trace'er and I are still related." Xia Yubing said, frowning.
There was only a knife wound on her leg, and she had torn off her shirt and tied it, but in her shoulder, it was a poisoned arrow.
"How's that okay?" Zhao Rong also ran out of ideas. Tibetans are easy, but she is incapable of healing.
"I won't be able to die for the time being." Xia Yubing said, "It would be nice if there was a way to find Chu Yitian." ”
That being said, is it that easy to find Chu for a day?
Xia Yubing was worried, and there was a noise outside the house.
"It's the second prince." Through the crack in the door, Zhiqi saw the figure.
The footsteps were fast, and as soon as Xia Yubing got up and wanted to dodge, someone came in. Luckily it wasn't the guards who were chasing her, otherwise she would have been planted.
"You're hiding with me." Ximen Zhen was not surprised to see Xia Yubing.
Outside, he heard that the commander of the guards led people to search his yard, and he had a bottom.
"Aunt Rong, hiding a fugitive is a capital offense, especially the person who assassinated his father." Simon Trace Road.
Zhao Rong sighed, and then remembered what the commander of the guards had said before, the emperor was assassinated?
has been focusing on Xia Yubing, and she has ignored the rhythm of this change of day.
At this time, Zhiqi was also shocked, and his standing was a little unstable.
"Hehe, that's good, I'm in your hands, you can take it to invite credit, maybe the new emperor is you." Xia Yubing said, coughing up another mouthful of dirty blood.
"Aunt Rong, go outside and take care of it, I'll help her force the poison." Simon Trace Road.
"Second prince ......" Zhiqi hesitated.
She didn't know what this woman had to do with Ximen, but the second prince caused a lot of trouble for herself if she wanted to save her, you must know that she was the one who assassinated the emperor, how could the second prince save his father's enemy?
"You go and clear the snowdrifts in the yard." Simon Trace Road.
Although the blood stains were hidden in the snowdrift by Zhiqi, the blood stains would still be revealed after the snow melted.
"Yes." Zhiqi saw that Ximen Zhen's attitude was like this, so he could only obey orders.
No matter what, her life belongs to the second prince.
Ximen Zhen helped Xia Yubing force out part of the poison, although there were still remnants in the body, but the impact was not big for the time being.
"Your skills are indeed not low." Xia Yubing praised, originally she thought that Ye Tingxuan's matter was just a rumor, and after not wanting to experience it for herself, she had a new understanding of Ximen Zhen, "Before, I only stared at Ximen Yin and ignored you, it seems that you are not an honest person." ”
"I'm here to save my life." Simon said, "I was lucky enough to escape before, but it doesn't mean that luck will always follow me. ”
"Just to save your life? Now that Ximen Jinglie has been killed by me, if you work hard, the throne will be yours. ”
Xia Yubing didn't believe that a child born in the royal family could really resist the temptation of the throne.
