The more she moved forward, the stronger the smell of blood became, and suddenly, she turned around, ready to run back, but before she could take the first step, she felt a strong smell of blood behind her, a cold light flashed in the corner of her eye, a short sword was already on her neck, there was a heavy breath gradually approaching, and a low and faint voice sounded in her ears: "Don't speak, go down the mountain, otherwise, I will kill you!"

Listening to the voice of a young man, his tone was so weak, and there was such a strong smell of blood on his body, he must have been injured and absconded to the mountains, and it seemed that eighty percent of them were assassins.

From this person's words, it was not possible to judge whether he knew the way down the mountain, Yuan Li did not dare to act rashly, she did not know the purpose of this man, but at present, it seemed that she must be useful.

She was held hostage, step by step down the mountain, and when she reached the bottom of the mountain, she clearly felt that his breathing was getting heavier and heavier, what did this mean? He was exhausted. Yuan Li had a plan, and when he returned to the palace, he would take himself hostage, but who would care about her cheap life? If she loses this daughter, her father won't blink her eyes, but her mother's life will be even more difficult, and she can't die.

She gradually slowed down her pace, and the man seemed to notice that he suddenly opened his mouth without saying a word along the way, although his tone was fierce but difficult to hide his weakness: "Hurry up, otherwise ......" Yuan Li had already noticed his weakness, and before he could finish speaking, Yuan Li replied to him: "Now it's dark, even if you reach the foot of the mountain, you have to be careful, if you are not careful, you may fall down the steep slope, anyway, I ......"

"Shut up, keep going if you don't want to die!" The man let out a low roar, as if he had exhausted all his strength.

She led the man over the broken courtyard wall and returned to Beihua Garden, where the light in Mrs. Fanghua's room was on, and she led him into her room. After lighting the lamp, he finally put down his sword, still covering his face, but he couldn't hide the heroic spirit between his eyebrows, and his eyes were clear and clear. Yuan Li also saw his face clearly, and was wondering why he didn't have the ruthlessness and murderous aura of an ordinary assassin, and he was still so handsome, what the hell did he ......

"Don't look at it, go get me a basin of water and a clean strip of cloth." She reacted, said yes, and went out.

Although this person held her hostage all the way, she was very careful not to let the blade touch her, and she didn't want to cause trouble, she hoped that he would leave quickly, Beihuayuan was already dilapidated, and it couldn't withstand a trace of wind and rain.

After a while, Yuan Li came in with what he wanted, and a bunch of freshly picked flowers in his hand, put the things on the table, and Yuan Li went out.

It didn't take long for Yuan Li to suddenly hear heavy and hurried footsteps in the distance, faintly flickering with firelight, she hurriedly pushed open the door and urged: "You hide quickly, the Praetorian Guards are coming." The man had just bandaged his wounds, took the long sword on the table, got up unhurriedly, and said, "I see." ”

Yuan Li walked into the room, looked at the mess on the table and the short sword he had dropped, and immediately calmed down after a moment of panic, took off his coat, and picked up the short sword......

The voice of General Xu, the leader of the Praetorian Guard, was already ringing outside the door: "Mrs. Fanghua, the minister Xu Chu has been ordered to come to search for the assassins. Cui Niang came out of Mrs. Fanghua's room and opened the door for them, Xu Chu immediately summoned the soldiers and shouted: "Search!" ”

The soldier broke into Mrs. Fanghua's room directly, and after rummaging through the cabinets for a while, he didn't get anything, so he had to leave in a huff.

Xu Chu brought someone to Liu Yuanli's room again: "Ninth Princess, Minister Xu Chu was ordered to come to search, Ninth Princess ......"
