Chapter 068: Assassin

Aoyama barged in with a secret guard escorting a person, and he was covered in blood.

Han Rui's heart jumped and she immediately stepped forward, "How is it?"

Qingshan replied respectfully: "The subordinates are fine, just slightly injured," he stood to the side, revealing the second son of Ning who was protecting, still dressed in white, left behind and independent.

"The minister has seen the eldest princess, but the minister has not done a good job, and he asked the eldest princess to punish him. ”

He had been tied for a long time, and his wrists were marked by rope for several hours, and his lips were chapped and haggard.

"This matter has nothing to do with Lord Ning, there is such turmoil in southern Xinjiang, no one can predict in advance, you will rest in Bashu City for a few days, and the palace will send someone to send you back to the capital. ”

"Yes. ”

However, the shouts of killing outside the city gate shook the sky, and she was worried about the battle situation, and immediately went up to the city tower again, but saw a lonely figure.

Ling Xin stood on the city tower wearing a gray cloak, looking at the people and horses fighting together under the city tower, and suddenly snatched the spear in the hand of the guard next to him and threw it violently, the strength was amazing, and the spear directly nailed the person who was about to cut Chang Shan, and the castration of the spear even took him away from the horse.

"Master Hou has not recovered from his serious injuries, so let's go back and rest, there is General Ding in charge here. ”

If it weren't for Ling Xin being seriously injured by a sneak attack, why would he have been forced to attack the city by the people of southern Xinjiang, the small countries of the projectile began to be presumptuous, and actually hit the door, but Dazhao was a rat trap.

Speaking of which, it's all to blame on that willow like eyebrows.

The original owner also carried a big pot because of this, and she lived a good life as a result.

"The eldest princess should go back and rest, the city tower is dangerous. ”

He didn't look back, his voice was cold, and it seemed to be an autumn drizzle.

Han Rui hesitated for a while, then turned around and left, the war was originally not his own business, General Ding Lao was already sitting here, and Ling Xin also came out, so it should be fine.

She took the rouge back to the general's mansion, but Qi Yuan, the sister of Qi Chun, the general of Huwei who was sitting here, appeared on a high-headed horse, "I've seen the eldest princess." ”

Her appearance made Han Rui couldn't help but ask a few more words: "Where is Miss Qi going to go this late night?"

Qi Yuan pointed to the gate of the city, "Now that I have no scruples, Miss Ben is going to kill the Quartet." ”

On the first day I came to Bashu City, I heard that Qi Yuan, the sister of the Bashu guard general General Huwei, often followed her brother to inspect the barracks, and the two meetings were in a hurry.

After speaking, a horse's belly galloped past.

"This Miss Qi really grew up on the border, and when she saw the eldest princess, she didn't get off the horse to pay respects. ”

Rouge was a little annoyed.

Han Rui looked at the disappearing back of this Miss Qi with admiration.

Fresh and wanton, this girl has a hearty temperament, is not informal, and lives transparently.

"When you're away from home, why talk about all this red tape, Bengong still likes her. ”

Rouge pouted, "No matter how much the princess likes it, she has to go back to sleep first, and it will be almost dawn soon." ”

When she returned to the house, Jiang Ting was waiting for her, and couldn't help but yawn when she came back.

"Cousin, you're back, it's not too early, go to sleep. ”

She went to sleep in the next room, and Rouge also went to sleep after serving Han Rui to sleep.

The fighting on the castle tower gradually stopped, and a man in black carefully came out of the house in the general's mansion, tiptoed the door shut, and cautiously approached a small courtyard from the patrol.

There was a guard on the roof, he cautiously approached the yard, and took out a little guy from his arms, the little guy couldn't help but squeak in his hand, he immediately let go, and the little guy ran to the other side, and the sound quickly led the guard on the roof away.

Under the moonlight, he smiled proudly, immediately pulled up the masked black scarf on his face, and then carefully went to the window, the window was open, and the moonlight cast a spot of light in the room.

He jumped into the room with a light movement, and behind the hazy curtain, the man on the bed was sleeping soundly, and he clenched the dagger in his hand and approached step by step.

Maybe God didn't want to let Han Rui sleep peacefully, she was discussing with Zhou Gong, and dimly felt that someone had entered the house, and she opened her eyes with great effort, and saw through the veil through the moonlight the person approaching step by step with a knife.

She subconsciously wanted to call someone, but Jiang Ting and Rouge were next door, and they didn't know martial arts.

The man gradually got closer, and although he tried his best to hide his breathing, Han Rui, who had come to his senses, caught them one by one, and began to think about the way to escape with his hands in the quilt.

Seeing that the man had reached the bedside, she suddenly jumped up and threw the curtain on him, and then picked up the porcelain pillow she was wearing and smashed it on his head and face, shouting as she smashed: "Help." ”

Xu Shi didn't expect her to be sober, and he didn't expect her to throw the curtain on his head, the curtain wrapped around his head, and when he cut the curtain with the dagger in his hand, the secret guard came in through the window, and several people attacked him, and he had to withdraw the dagger that stabbed Han Rui to save himself.

Han Rui took the opportunity to jump out of bed and stand at the door, not forgetting to lie on the door frame.

It is difficult to use two fists for the fourth hand, not to mention that Han Rui's secret guards are all strong in martial arts, and in less than a stick of incense, the person who came was caught.

Jiang Ting and Rouge, who lived next door to the left and right, rushed over when they heard the movement, and Rouge was still holding a lamp in his hand.

She lit all the candlesticks in the house.

Under the candlelight, Han Rui saw the faces of the people who came clearly, and she was so shocked that she couldn't close her mouth.

"The second son of Ning actually assassinated the palace, isn't the Ning family going to rebel?"

The person who came was none other than Ning Ergongzi, who had just been rescued before.

Jiang Ting and Rouge were also stunned.

After Qingshan rushed over, he circled around Ning Ergongzi, and suddenly said that he stretched out his hand to look at the man's face, and he actually forcibly peeled off a face.

Han Rui was so shocked that she almost couldn't stand, could this be the legendary human skin mask.

She stretched out her hand to touch it, but Qingshan immediately dodged it, "Eldest princess, don't touch it, this thing may be soaked in some potion." ”

Han Rui immediately retracted her hand.

Under the human skin mask is a plain face, not looking at the face, just looking at the back and body shape, which is still very similar to Ning Ergongzi.

Han Rui slapped the table and sneered: "Yan Ning is really a good means to turn the palace around." ”

The man struggled and tried to pounce on her: "I hate that I didn't kill you." ”

Aoyama kicked the man over.

"Princess, his subordinates took him down for interrogation. ”

"Go ahead, make sure it's all clean. ”

When the assassin was taken down, Rouge was afraid for a while, and she jumped up and hugged Han Rui and cried: "Princess, the slave and maid will never leave you when you sleep at night in the future, it......'s so dangerous."

Han Rui patted her on the back and reassured: "This palace is fine, it's just that I hate Yan Ning for teasing us like this, in order to save this fake second son of Ning, we have lost a lot of manpower." ”

Thinking of this, she immediately asked, "Are Yasukuni Hou and Dongting Hou back?"

Rouge hurriedly went out to inquire, and soon she came back, followed by Dong Tinghou.

"The minister has seen the eldest princess, and I heard that the eldest princess was assassinated, but fortunately, there is no danger, otherwise it would be difficult for the minister to atone for his sins. ”

"Has my cousin ever been injured?"

Sensing Han Rui's concern, Jiang Can was simply flattered, "It's okay, it's true that more than a hundred people have lost their manpower." ”

"What about Yasukuni?"

This sentence crushed the little joy that Dong Tinghou had just crushed, "Yasukuni Hou should be resting at this time, the minister came back with Yasukuni Hou, and his injuries have not healed." ”

"That's good, you can discuss the rest with Yasukuni Hou, there are secret guards here in the palace, don't worry about it. ”

It wasn't until noon that Aoyama came back, apparently because the interrogation had come to an end.

"Back to the eldest princess, this person is a dead man raised by Yan Ning with money, and his mission is to assassinate the princess. ”

"Are there any people from Yanning in Bashu City?"

wasted such a big setback, just to let this person enter the city to assassinate himself, what other tricks did Yan Ning not use?
