Chapter 331: I was waiting for her here
Minghui clenched the short knife in his hand, and at this moment, all his senses were infinitely magnified at this moment.
He could vaguely feel the people in the grass about to move, Minghui made defensive movements, as long as someone rushed out, his short knife would cut at that person mercilessly at that moment.
Minghui's dark eyes were full of cold color, his gaze was cold and stared in the direction of the grass, and the hand holding the short knife gradually retracted, until the green tendons on the back of his hand burst out and the joints turned white.
"Don't prepare, it's useless, you will die!"
Suddenly, a sharp voice came.
The next moment, a group of black-clothed people flew up from the grass, and the sharp arrows shot straight towards Minghui's face.
Minghui's dark eyes narrowed slightly, and he dodged and fired more arrows.
However, the man in black had already approached them.
Outnumbered, Minghui understood that there was an extra bloody mark on his arm between the fights, but he still didn't give up.
He drew his dagger neatly, and stabbed it directly into the man's shoulder with a swift movement, and the moment he turned around, a long sword had already stabbed at him.
Minghui quickly dodged, but he knew in his heart that this sword would not be able to dodge.
But if he was holding on to death, he had to pull on his back, and Minghui still stabbed it with a knife.
He closed his eyes suddenly, but the imaginary pain did not come.
As an extraordinary martial artist, he is naturally not afraid of life and death, but at the moment he is extremely confused.
But doubts, he never shows his emotions.
Minghui reacted very quickly and backhanded another sword, and in an instant he saw a person coming, and he recognized at a glance that the person who had just helped him was his own prince's person.
With reinforcements, all the black-clothed assassins were tied up after a while, and Minghui's heart finally fell.
He gasped slightly, and put away his blade.
Mo Nanchen walked out of the darkness without hurry, and glanced around with cold eyes, and when his eyes fell on the man in black, the dark color under his eyes was thick.
He said in a deep voice, "Take them all back!" Pry out the people behind them! ”
After the secret guard quickly stepped forward to take the people away, Mo Nanchen raised his eyes to look at Minghui, but he didn't speak for a long time.
"Thank you, Lord Wang!"
Although Minghui didn't understand why Mo Nanchen suddenly appeared here, he also knew that if it weren't for Mo Nanchen, he wouldn't be able to escape today.
"You don't need to thank this king, you should thank the princess, she thinks you are wrong, let this king help you."
Mo Nanchen said a few words rarely, and his tone softened, all thanks to An Ruqing.
Minghui knew that he was at a loss, and followed silently.
The guards brought back the assassins, probably knowing that he had something to ask, and the matter of questioning was handed over to Minghui.
Later, when Mo Nanchen talked to An Ruqing about this incident, it happened that Minghui knocked on the door and came in.
"Lord Wang! Princess! The group refused to say who instructed them, they hid poison in their mouths, tortured them, and committed suicide! ”
"Well-trained, it seems that someone has worked hard to raise the dead."
Hearing Minghui's words, An Ruqing slurred her lips and seemed to sigh.
Mo Nanchen thought for a moment and said nonchalantly: "Dispose of their corpses, this time I didn't succeed, there will be a next time." ”
The person behind it will definitely not be defeated so easily.
"What if you still can't get any useful information next time?" An Ruqing looked over with a smile, but her eyes showed helplessness.
The people behind this, they have wanted to catch it for a long time, but they have never had a chance.
"Do you think Minghui will make this kind of mistake next time?" Mo Nanchen's tone was indifferent, and his slightly cold eyes stared at Minghui.
Minghui has been by his side for many years, and his martial arts are not learned in vain, if he misses again, he has to wonder if Minghui still has the ability to protect people.
An Ruqing glanced at Mo Nanchen's expression, and before she could speak, she heard Minghui firmly deny it.
She was speechless for a moment, and she didn't say anything at all.
After dinner, An Ruqing followed Mo Nanchen out for a walk.
A group of officers and soldiers suddenly entered the door, and when they saw Mo Nanchen, they saluted respectfully: "Lord Wang, your subordinates have ordered the whole city to be searched, and you are no exception, Lord Wang." ”
The man was neither humble nor arrogant, Mo Nanchen's eyes darkened, and there was a little more coldness on his face: "It's naturally okay to cooperate, but I don't know what happened in the city, and I need to make such a big move?" ”
Mo Nanchen was silent and tentative, and the officers and soldiers who took the lead smiled slightly: "Lord Wang, don't embarrass us, this is an order from above, and only the boss knows what happened." ”
Knowing that he couldn't ask anything, Mo Nanchen didn't ask much, and waved his hand to signal Minghui to come: "You take them to check." ”
Minghui was ordered to leave.
As soon as the group left, An Ruqing couldn't help but tug on Mo Nanchen's sleeve, her willow eyebrows furrowed slightly, "Those assassins haven't had time to deal with them in the dungeon." ”
She furrowed her brows tightly, with a vague premonition.
These inspectors don't know if they will find the dungeon.
Mo Nanchen's expression was indifferent, he sneered lightly, and touched An Ruqing's ink hair indifferently: "Don't worry, those people committed suicide in fear of sin, and it is not us who need to panic." ”
Mo Nanchen's tone was very light, and he didn't panic at all when he saw him.
Seeing this, An Ruqing didn't dwell on this matter anymore.
"You go back and rest first, and I'll talk about it."
With that, Mo Nanchen turned around and left.
An Ruqing didn't know why she panicked, and she didn't rush back to the room, but sat down in the courtyard.
On the other side, Mo Nanchen walked to the dungeon, and sure enough, he saw that the group of officers and soldiers had found those corpses.
"Lord Wang, you ......" The officers and soldiers stared at the corpse, their faces sad.
Apparently it was a tricky task for them to spot these Assassins.
The inspection was just a formality, let alone a noble person of the level of Mo Nanchen, but they never expected that they would really be able to find an assassin.
Mo Nanchen waved his hand indifferently, he chuckled: "This is to assassinate this king, since you have found out, it is better to take it back and investigate it well." ”
"The prince has spoken, and his subordinates will definitely do their best to investigate and deal with it impartially." Obviously, the officers and men who take the lead are much more mature.
Speaking is also leaky, Mo Nanchen doesn't care, and he won't care too much: "Then it's troublesome." ”
After sending off the officers and soldiers, Minghui followed Mo Nanchen, but he couldn't help but wrinkle his eyebrows, he still couldn't help but talk more: "Lord Wang!" The meaning of the officers and soldiers is clearly that the death of these people has nothing to do with us! ”
"It's really inseparable, and that's true."
Mo Nanchen lowered his eyes and sneered, in the end, the person died in Shili Pavilion, and it was not far from here, which also gave enough opportunities for people who wanted to pull him into the water.
Minghui looked anxious, and he couldn't help but speak again: "But if that group of people finds out about us, will there be trouble?" ”
"It's a hassle."
Although he was talking about trouble, in fact, Mo Nanchen said this with a little smile.
Minghui didn't understand it at all, but after seeing Mo Nanchen's indifferent expression, he knew that the prince didn't care about it at all, so naturally he didn't need to think about it.
Minghui shut up at the right time, and An Ruqing couldn't help but say softly when she saw the two of them coming in her direction: "Are you back?" ”
"Isn't it cold?" Mo Nanchen's gaze fell on An Ruqing's Xiao Se figure, he twisted his eyebrows slightly, and his expression became extraordinarily gentle.
An Ruqing shook her head quickly, hiding something in her heart, where can she care if she is cold or not.
"How? Did those people say anything? ”
Her face was full of concern, and her heart was full of it.
Mo Nanchen took her hand and led her towards the room, the two of them drifted apart, and Minghui couldn't hear what the two said.
This matter passed quickly with the two of them.
But what An Ruqing didn't expect was that the officers and soldiers surrounded the palace the next day.
The voice was so loud that it directly woke up An Ruqing, and touched her side, but Mo Nanchen was no longer there.
An Ruqing got up and opened the door, Minghui stood at the door with an anxious face, with some eagerness on his face: "Princess, you finally woke up!" ”
"What's wrong?"
An Ruqing was restless, always panicked in her heart, and combined with Minghui's appearance, she naturally thought of something.
"The prince was taken away by them! Early in the morning, the officers and soldiers surrounded the palace, saying that the corpses that were taken away yesterday were members of the emperor's guard, and they were sent out to arrest the assassins! ”
Hearing this, An Ruqing frowned.
No wonder I always felt flustered yesterday, I was waiting for her here!
