Chapter 36: The blade was approaching his back inch by inch

Yan Tao's vision was blurred by tears, and her little hands trembled violently.

The blade approached the villain's back inch by inch, but he didn't notice it for a long time, holding a long knife that was constantly bleeding, and stood straight like a green pine in the wind and snow.

Yan Tao pursed her lips, simply closed her eyes, lowered her head and rammed over!

Whoosh –

A cold arrow flew from the woods.

Its target was supposed to be Mo Shiyuan's.

But...... It's better to be in a hurry than to be in a hurry.

Yan Tao felt a tingling pain in her back, and the dagger in her hand fell to the ground with a clatter, and after stumbling a few steps, the sky spun.

Then her consciousness plunged into a bottomless darkness.

When Yan Tao woke up again, she had already left the hunting ground and returned to the East Palace, lying on her bed.

"Miss, are you awake?"

"Oh, good daughter, don't get up, don't get up, lie down first."

Yuzhu and Xiao Chengxiang's voices sounded at the same time.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng was sitting drinking tea, and when he saw Yan Tao get up, he hurriedly put down the teacup and ran to the head of the bed, and helped her lie down slowly.

"The minister has seen Concubine Yan." Prime Minister Xiao Cheng first twisted the quilt for Yan Tao, and then saluted.

"You're not dead, are you?"

Yan Tao couldn't help but ask.

The atmosphere of father-daughter affection was broken in a second.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng's smile froze, "Niangniang, all the thieves have been killed, and some ministers have been injured, but no one has died." ”

He explained the whole incident to Yan Tao.

Only then did Yan Tao know that there was someone else who planned to assassinate.

At that time, she wanted to attack Mo Shiyuan, but she happened to block a cold arrow for him, and she fainted on the spot, and now she has become a glorious image of standing up to protect the prince.

“…… What about His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? Yan Tao glanced twice, and saw that there were only her own people in the room, so she asked quietly.

Prime Minister Xiao Cheng shook his head: "I'm going to interrogate, it seems that this time Yu Linwei is going to have a big purge again, I don't know how many people will be beheaded and exterminated by him, alas!" After this incident, I am afraid that the position of the first janissary guard of Ouchi will fall into the hands of the wolf guard. ”

Feng Wolf Wei was barbaric and rude, only obeyed Mo Shiyuan's orders, and even the emperor couldn't move them, and at that time, the courtiers would definitely put everyone in danger, and whoever dared to disobey the prince would end up being cooked and eaten by those barbarians.

This failed assassination was simply in the hands of Mo Shiyuan.

Yan Tao also knows the methods used by the villain to eliminate dissidents.

She lowered her eyes, pinched the quilt and said timidly, "I'm sorry, I didn't take advantage of the opportunity." ”

Yuzhu comforted: "Miss, you are already very smart, you know how to sacrifice yourself in time to block the prince's arrows, he will definitely trust you more in the future, and no one can shake your status in the East Palace, this time the slave is really impressed by Miss." ”

Yan Tao: "......"

It's okay, Yuzhu is willing to think like this, so let her think like this.

Anyway, Yan Tao will never take the initiative to confess, she was just too scared to close her eyes because she was too scared, and accidentally hit the edge of the arrow.

"During this time, you can recuperate with peace of mind, and you don't have to think about other things first." Prime Minister Xiao Cheng rarely gave Yan Tao a vacation, "It is already a great success to win the trust of the prince." ”

"Thank you, Father." Yan Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

The work of a spy is really painful and laborious.

If she can set a time for this holiday, she hopes it will be forever~

"By the way, this is something that your second brother asked your father to hand over to you, and your father doesn't know what's inside."

Prime Minister Xiao took out a red mandarin duck bag and gave it to Yan Tao.
