There was a faint smell of blood on the deserted path, and a tall, burly man stumbled and finally leaned against a large tree.

There was a burning pain in his back, and as the numbness gradually spread to his limbs, his legs seemed to be no longer his own.

"Damn it!" Mu Zhao scolded secretly, already understanding that Mu Yan's sword was smeared with poison.

He never thought that one day, he would be cornered, in the past, the first person he thought of was Mu Yuan, but now, he will no longer ask the imperial brother for help.

Mu Zhao couldn't help but smile bitterly, I'm afraid that now, even if he falls in front of Mu Yuan, he won't save himself, right?

"Who?!"

There was a sound of small footsteps from far and near, and then in the darkness, three people slowly walked out.

Mu Zhaotongren immediately shrank, looked at the ill-intentioned three brothers in front of him vigilantly, and smiled weakly after a while, "General Wei, what a coincidence." ”

Even though the three people in front of him were all wearing night clothes, Wei Hongjie's unusually recognizable eyes still made Mu Zhao recognize them.

After all, in the world, it is difficult to find a person's eyes so murderous.

"When did the Sixth Highness become so smart?" Wei Honglin couldn't help but snort, and then took off the face towel and revealed a playful smile.

However, Wei Hongfei took a few steps forward, and actually stepped on Mu Zhao's shoulder, and the force made him unable to move at all.

"Presumptuous! You, how dare you ......"

The vision in front of him gradually blurred, but Mu Zhao still gritted his teeth and wanted to push Wei Hongfei away, but the other party did not move at all like Mount Tai.

The surrounding atmosphere was gradually clouded with a strong sense of danger, and the wind sounded, Wei Honglin sighed regretfully as if he was looking at a dying person, "It turns out that the prince's brotherhood with His Royal Highness is not enough." ”

What?!

Mu Zhao's pupils immediately shrank and raised his head suddenly, as if he wanted to eat Wei Honglin.

The other party couldn't help but take a step back, and patted his chest as if he was pretending to be frightened, "Why is His Royal Highness the Sixth so excited? You know, we waited for this opportunity with a hard time. ”

Opportunity?

"Mouthy!" Wei Hongjie glared at the third brother who was already playful in his own house with dissatisfaction, it was useless to say more, although the surroundings had been controlled by them, and no one would pass through this place, but he still had the sixth prince earlier, so as not to cause extraneous branches.

Wei Honglin had already received his warning, so he could only pouted his lips boringly, "In the end, he is a prince, if he dies here, I am afraid it is not suitable." ”

He muttered, and immediately stepped forward to stun Mu Zhao, but he didn't want the other party to have the strength out of nowhere, so he suddenly pulled out a dagger from his sleeve, which happened to scratch Wei Honglin's outstretched palm.

"Shhh

The three men in front of him immediately jumped back, Wei Honglin looked at the bloody mouth in his palm with a gloomy expression, and when he looked at Mu Zhao again, there was only a terrifying killing intent left in his eyes, "It seems that I am too merciful!" ”

At this time, something seemed to flash in Mu Zhao's mind, and he stared at Wei Honglin with a frown, "The person who stabbed me at the horse farm in the first place...... It's you?! ”

He could hear it, there were so many killers at that time, and there was such a person who said the same thing, this tone and tone, that's right, it was Wei Honglin!

Didn't he excuse himself from participating in horse training at that time? It turned out that he was hiding among the assassins!

"Who made you such an eyesore, if you don't die, how can I get close to the prince and gain his trust?" Wei Honglin snorted coldly, that's right, the Dingxing Marquis Mansion had already moved this thought, they had obviously arranged so many people to approach Mu Yuan, but none of them could get his respect.

Later, Wei Honglin found out that no matter where the prince went, there was always a Mu Zhao by his side, and he would hand over everything to this sixth highness, where did he need other servants?

Seemingly enraged by this knife, Wei Honglin's eyes were like a beast hunting its prey, and he didn't need to think about it to know that he was thinking about how to crush Mu Zhao to pieces next!

"I might as well tell you, just now, Concubine Zhen Niangniang has hanged herself in the prison! She is also a smart person, knowing that her prince is useless, and expecting you to save her will only make her suffer more torture, and it is better to die. ”

"What did you say?!" Mu Zhao was shocked, unable to believe his ears.

Mother Princess......

recalled the resoluteness and reluctance in her eyes when he said goodbye to his mother, it turned out that she had already made such a decision.

Why, why not wait for him?

Hearing a bang, Wei Honglin suddenly strode forward and smashed a punch on Mu Zhao's face, knocking the man to the ground immediately, and there seemed to be a sound of bones shattering.

There was a buzzing in his ears, and only Wei Honglin's sporadic words came, "Don't worry, we will send you down to see her soon!" ”

……

"There's a fire—no, the Sixth Highness is still inside—"

In the middle of the night, a sky-high fire made the entire Chenguo Palace sound the gong, and when everyone arrived, Concubine Zhen's palace had already been submerged in a sea of red fire.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, you can't go in!" Mu Yuan was stopped by several palace people, he looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, there were patrols in the palace every night, how could he suddenly go out of the water and catch fire?

"Are you sure that the Sixth Highness is still in the palace?" There was a subtle tremor in his voice, and he grabbed the palace man in front of him with his backhand, and the stern gaze made the other party's heart weak.

No, Mu Zhao is extraordinary, how can he sit still if he finds a fire?

"The slave doesn't dare to assert, but today, the Sixth Highness has never stepped out of the ......"

Mu Zhao asked someone to dress up as him early and stay in the palace to avoid people's eyes and ears, so that he could leave the palace and ask for help.

At this time, the palace people were sprinkling water into the sea of fire one after another, but with little effect.

The pungent smell almost permeated the entire palace, and many people gathered in the distance, watching the beams and bricks collapse in the heat.

The fire was so fierce and terrifying that it was not extinguished until dawn.

Several search and rescue guards had already rushed into the rubble, and everyone saw that the prince was staring straight at the exit from beginning to end, and the feeling of tension in his whole body was as difficult to let go as if a bowstring had been pulled open.

"It's out!" I don't know who exclaimed, I saw the guards carrying a charred corpse out of the debris, Mu Yuan couldn't help but lean in, and the charred corpse of one of the men quickly attracted his attention.

He stood there for a long time, and the guard's voice was puzzled.

"Strange, this man was broken before he died, his hand and leg bones were broken, and several ribs were broken, and it looks like this injury is not like being burned to death...... but being tortured to death!

Mu Yuan only felt that the soles of his feet had a chill at some point, and then the guard took out a jade pendant in the hands of this strange male corpse.

His eyes changed instantly......
