Chapter 48: I'm Dead

At night, two figures quietly walked out of Fengqi Palace.

In view of the experience of the last failed escape, Mu Huayin decided not to go west this time, and she wanted to leave the palace from the east.

She was very well prepared this time, and she had already memorized the route out of the palace.

She took Rue all the way east.

A curving moon hung in the sky, and the palace was silent.

Rue Xiang always felt a little uneasy in her heart, after all, it was a big crime to escape from the palace without permission, if she was discovered......

Among the harems, Fengqi Palace can be said to be the bedroom with the highest frequency of visits by the emperor.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but ask the concerns in her heart, "Master, if the emperor discovers us, ......"

"Don't worry, the emperor won't find out."

The reason why Mu Huayin chose to leave the palace tonight was because she thought that today was the day of canonization.

The emperor will definitely stay in the palace of the harem concubines tonight, so how can he care about what she is doing.

The two of them passed through the palaces very smoothly.

Seeing that the high palace wall was in front of her, Mu Huayin became more and more excited in her heart.

It's finally time to get out.

She walked towards the tall palace gate.

One step, two steps, three steps......

"Catch the assassins......"

A shout pierced the silence of the night.

Before she could react, there was already the sound of clanging weapons colliding fiercely in her ears.

I saw that in the night, more than a dozen masked men in night clothes were holding swords and fighting with the palace guards.

The Assassins were so good at kung fu that the guards were able to fight them before they were knocked to the ground after less than ten moves.

In a short time, dozens of people fell to the ground, and the smell of blood spread in the air.

Mu Huayin looked at the corpse that fell a few meters away from her, and hugged the gold and silver jewelry in her arms.

Her first instinct was to run away.

However, the movement of turning and running backwards was too unusual to ensure that it would not attract the attention of the Assassin.

At such a distance, the Assassin could kill her with a sword in his hand.

In desperation, Mu Huayin chose a more dangerous method.

"Quick, down." She whispered Rue Xiang, then leaned and fell to the ground.

They were dressed in palace clothes today, and the Assassins and guards were in the middle of a fight, so no one noticed them.

The blood of the fallen guard beside her flowed to her hands, slimy and tinged with a faint warmth.

Mu Huayin did not hesitate to dip a large handful of her hands and quietly wiped them on her face and body.

Then he closed his eyes and meditated in his heart that I was dead, I was dead, I was dead......

At this moment, a familiar voice reached her ears through the sound of shouting and killing and the sound of swords colliding, "Emperor...... After? ”

Xia Yichen's voice trembled, and he looked at Mu Huayin who fell to the ground covered in blood and motionless with some disbelief.

He stumbled over with his sword in hand.

At that moment, an Assassin stabbed him with a sword.

"Protect the Emperor—"

In the crowd, I don't know who shouted.

Hearing the word "emperor", Mu Huayin opened her eyes violently.

She saw that a sword with a cold light was already approaching Xia Yichen.

But Xia Yichen didn't know it, and just walked towards her with a dejected face.

The sword was about to pierce him in the chest.

Mu Huayin jumped up from the ground and smashed the package containing the gold, silver and jewels in her hand at the assassin with all her strength.

The assassin didn't expect this sudden change, and hurriedly dodged to dodge, and the long sword was crossed again, but it stabbed at Mu Huayin.

Only a few meters away, he raised his sword slightly, and the blade of the sword had reached Mu Huayin's chest.

He stabbed it hard.

"Don't!"

Xia Yichen let out a desperate roar.

But he could only watch Mu Huayin's eyes widen and her body slowly fell back.

He pierced the sword in his hand through the assassin's body from behind, and then rushed over and hugged Mu Huayin.
