"What?!" Wu Jinghong's eyes widened, "Is this true?!" ”

Zimang was a little surprised that Wu Jinghong's reaction was so big, but she still replied honestly, "Sister Chimang did say so. ”

Emperor Chen Guo should be in his early forties now, which is a good age, why is he already working hard and becoming ill? Chimang's meaning means that Emperor Chen is running out of time?

Wu Jinghong never doubted the news that Chimang passed on to him, if it was not true and reliable, Chimang would definitely stop it, since she called Zimang to talk, presumably this news was accurate.

For this matter, Wu Jinghong was surprised that an idle prince still had such a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, and Princess Liao would have to face the concubines of the Six Palaces in the future, but he had never heard King Liao or Princess Liao talk about it.

If the Emperor of Yan is dying, these two people, who are the closest to the Emperor of Yan Kingdom, will not know the slightest invitation, right?

So what does Chimang mean when he says that the royal family of Yan Kingdom is not so calm on the surface?

This simple remark was hugely informative, which made Wu Jinghong think a lot in an instant, and she was most worried that Wu Guo's hand had penetrated deep into Yan Kingdom. After thinking about it, she still decided to ask King Liao.

Zimang left with Wu Jinghong's reply, it was late at night, Wu Jinghong simply washed up and went to bed and lay down.

Wu Jinghong has always slept lightly, so when the "click" sound on the roof sounded, she opened her eyes.

There was only a faint candlelight in the room, and when she was in a different place, she always used to leave a candle in the room, so that she would not be so flustered when she suddenly woke up in the middle of the night.

The candle flame flickered suddenly, and the sound of "Boom" became brighter. Wu Jinghong looked at the door, where a thin blade pushed the wooden door open, leaking a crack, and a thin breeze blew in from the outside.

Wu Jinghong was on guard all over, and the hand in the quilt had already held a handful of medicinal powder, which she kept by the pillow for self-defense, just to facilitate this time.

Unbeknownst to him, the blade was only half-opened and stopped, and then gently retreated.

"It's this one."

Wu Jinghong vaguely heard the person outside the door going to the side under the greeting of another person, and her heart jumped in shock—King Liao and Princess Liao were in the room next to her in two rooms! Could it be that these people were sent by Jiuyao?

But why did chasing here also cost the lives of King Liao's wife? This is no longer in the territory of Shuo country, so there is no point in doing anything here?

Wu Jinghong didn't dare to think deeply, and quietly got up and put on her clothes, she was not worried about the safety of King Liao and his wife, the two of them must have secret guards to protect them in the dark, if they couldn't even solve these killers, King Liao would probably be out of the world a long time ago.

What she is worried about is Hua Zhinian, these assassins are of unknown origin, and the target is not herself, then it is also possible that she is going to Hua Zhinian, he is already in a difficult situation in Hua Country, if someone wants to secretly harm him, she must believe it.

Wu Jinghong leaned against the door with bated breath, there was no one outside her door, but she still didn't dare to rush out, Wei Ting was busy training new secret guards these days, and she was not ready to summon him when it was unnecessary.

Just when she was holding her breath and waiting for the right time, someone quietly rushed in through the window of her room, she looked back sharply, but was gently taken into her arms by a person, "Jinghong, don't be afraid of me." ”

Hua Zhinian's breathing was shallow, and his voice was much more restrained, with a pleasant fragrance that surrounded the dancer, "Shhhhhhhhhh

Wu Jinghong almost held himself back, and only slowly exhaled after seeing that it was Hua Zhinian, "Why are you here?" The people outside ......."

"It's for King Liao, I don't know if it's Emperor Shuo's pursuers. I'm going to see you, you stay in the room and don't go out, I'll take a look. ”

Wu Jinghong wrinkled his brows and said worriedly, "There are people who know poison arts, and they have sprinkled powder just now, I am afraid that they will be able to do it, after all, they have already come here, they may think that they are safe." ”

Hua Zhinian shook his head, "Don't worry, it's impossible for people in the royal family not to even be wary of this." I'm going to go over and take a look, don't go out, protect yourself. ”

Wu Jinghong nodded, and stuffed a packet of medicinal powder into Hua Zhinian's hand, "I have prepared a lot, and I can use it as a last resort." ”

Hua Zhinian silently took it in his hand and turned over from the window again.

The night was deep, and Wu Jinghong leaned against the window and looked at the night outside, but his ears and the tip of his nose were carefully searching for the movement of King Liao's room. Princess Liao has a real temperament, they are very good, and King Liao is a person who does not stick to common sense. These two people are very much to her liking, and they must not be succeeded by Jiu Yao. What's more, if those two had an accident in the territory of Yan Kingdom, it would also cause war.

Less than a breath after Hua Zhinian left, the entire building of the inn suddenly shook, and Wu Jinghong leaned against the window with a grim expression.

Soon, the door of her room was slammed open, and Princess Liao rushed in, "Dancing girl! There are assassins! ”

Wu Jinghong hurriedly greeted him and checked left and right, "Are you okay?" ”

"Oh, leave me alone, the prince is fending off the assassins, tell me to take you and run away! Those people are very good at their methods, like well-trained killers, if they can kill us, they will definitely come back to you to kill them! ”

Hearing this, Wu Jinghong judged that it was not the first time that King Liao and his wife had encountered such an assassination.

"Senior brother has also gone to help, don't worry." Wu Jinghong quickly picked up the burden that had just been simply packed, and pulled Princess Liao to the door, "Since their first target is you, they should bypass me, you follow me, and I will take you out." ”

"It's useless, you can only find a way to rush out, the killer doesn't care who you are, if you stand in their way, you will definitely be killed before me!" Princess Liao looked very experienced, looked left and right in the room, and picked up a chair behind the door, "Don't stand in front of me, you follow me, I have a way to rush out!" ”

After that, Princess Liao puffed up, hugged the chair and opened the door in the stunned gaze of Wu Hong, and ran downstairs without looking back.

Wu Jinghong did not dare to delay, and followed closely behind.

"Don't let her run!"

A black-clothed masked man roared, his feet were a little between the buildings, and he rushed to the stairs in a few steps, and just stood still before slashing at him.

Princess Liao faced the big knife but was not afraid at all, picked up the chair and threw it over, the chair was split in two by the big knife in mid-air, and fell to the ground with a "clang".

"Let's go!" Princess Liao pulled Wu Jinghong and ran up the stairs, turned around the railing, and the man in black split the chair and chased after him, slashing at the pillar again. Princess Liao and Wu Jinghong took this opportunity to quickly go downstairs and rushed to the door.

Because of this noise, the people in the inn woke up one after another, but they all only looked at the door and then shrank back.

"Don't look back, run!"

Wu Jinghong knew that they couldn't get rid of the man in black, so he stopped when Princess Liao ran out of the gate and sprinkled a handful of medicinal powder behind him. The door of the inn was open, and the wind poured in from outside the door, pouring all the medicinal powder on the body and face of the black-clothed man who was chasing after him, and in the blink of an eye, he smelled a strong fishy smell.

"Ahh The man in black screamed before he could notice it, and his whole body fell to the ground, his clothes were rotten, and his skin was festering at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the whole person could barely support himself.

Princess Liao took the time to look back and exclaimed, "Wow! What are you here? So powerful? ”

Wu Jinghong didn't say a word, only stuffed a packet of medicinal powder into Princess Liao's hand, and advised, "Don't get it, use it for self-defense." ”

They both glanced back, then quickened their pace away from the inn.

After turning several dark alleys and making sure that no one was catching up behind them, the two dared to let out a big breath and slowly sat on the ground to rest by holding on to the wall.

"Do you know who those are? Why are you being hunted down? ”

Princess Liao's breathing paused, and then sighed nonchalantly, "I also think it's strange to say, these people suddenly appeared half a year ago, and when they first appeared, the prince almost lost his life to save me, and since then we have added several secret guards." If you do the math, this is the third time. ”

"Are you already familiar with their tricks? Or is it identified by other means? Wu Jinghong couldn't help but ask.

"It's habit. Every time they appeared, they pointed at us clearly, and there were other people around them, and they never cared, only once, my personal maid was in front of me, and they killed me. Princess Liao said and lowered her head, "That girl has followed me since she was a child, and we are like sisters, just because she was in front of me, she was hacked to death by those people......"

Wu Jinghong was silent, no wonder she would say something like that just now, it turned out that she had such a painful experience ahead.

"It's just that compared to me, they seem to want to put the prince to death, and every time the person who shoots at me seems to mean it...... I don't know if it's my delusion, after all, it's the prince who protects me every time......"

In the end, Princess Liao's voice became lower and lower, and she directly hugged her knees and buried her face in her knees.

"It's been so long, haven't you found out where these people came from?" Wu Jinghong tried to attract Princess Liao's attention to the matter, "In half a year, there have been three appearances, which is enough for you to find out the mastermind behind it, right?" Wouldn't it be even more dangerous if you didn't even know who was behind it? ”

Princess Liao really raised her head, and her voice was much more energetic, "I have also secretly checked, but there are no clues, there is not the slightest trace of these people, and there is no living mouth left every time." Although their martial arts are not very exquisite, there will always be a poisonous person in them, and if someone is captured alive, they will be poisoned immediately! ”

Speaking of this, Princess Liao was also annoyed, "The emperor also knows about this matter, and said that it will be strictly investigated, but no news has come until now!" ”
