Chapter 57: Jump
The fight went from the room to the corridor, and from the corridor to the open-air attic of the restaurant, Ji Rongjin was protected by Yan Tao all the way, and even his arm was injured and he didn't get rid of her.
After nearly four years of traveling through the Great Xia Dynasty, Ji Rongjin seems to be at ease with what he encounters and gets along with people, but in fact, his heart is closed, and he is incompatible with this world, he has never paid anything for others, and he has never thought that one day this prince who used her as a shield did not abandon her and ran away alone.
If there is no turmoil in the heart, it is impossible.
Under the open-air attic, the crowd in the market was frightened by the killing in the restaurant and fled everywhere, the whole market was in chaos, and the soldiers and horses patrolling the city squeezed towards the restaurant with knives, but they couldn't get close to the restaurant at all, they were intercepted by a group of men in black.
Ji Rongjin hid behind Yan Tao, saw this scene, and understood, I am afraid that this assassination tonight will not be good, it is cold and afraid, she is already shaking, her legs fell on the railing with weakness, and the man in black seized the opportunity.
Seeing that the sword of the man in black was about to stab at her life, she closed her eyes in fright, it's over, it's over...... It's definitely dead! As a result, she was pulled violently, Yan Tao stood up in front of her, and before she could react, she heard a muffled snort, and a smell of blood rushed to her nose.
She opened her eyes suddenly, ......and the man in black stabbed him in the shoulder blade, and the blood flowed.
Ji Rongjin shouted in a panic, "Your Highness...... Her Highness ...... "She wants to plug the blood.
"Don't move." Yan Tao roared, ignoring the bloody mouth at all, and continued to swing his sword to kill the assassin.
Kang Tai leaned to his side, "Your Highness, our people are blocked, and there is no way to get close to the restaurant. ”
Yan Tao glanced at the open-air attic, there were only two guards left beside him, and there was also Cai Rong'er, and there were twenty or thirty black-clothed people surrounding them.
In the cold wind and night, the two pulled people against each other.
Yan Tao looked downstairs again, the chaotic street market seemed to be controlled by the opponent, slowly raised his head, and looked towards the opposite restaurant, the window of a private room without light was open, and there was a person standing, dressed in black, with only two eyes exposed.
Through the noise of human voices, Yan Tao seemed to hear the gentle sneer of the person opposite, his eyes moved slightly, and he also showed a contemptuous smile.
The man in black raised his hand and pointed at him.
Yan Tao turned his head to look behind him, and a man in white in a wheelchair appeared out of nowhere, "You're here too." He still smiled contemptuously, not taking the other person seriously.
Cai Rongcheng ignored his contempt, "I have waited for five years for this day. ”
Yan Tao looked at the window across the street again, the person at the window had disappeared, and he turned around directly, "With you, can you kill me?" "He wasn't afraid of the men in black who were surrounded by them.
Cai Rongcheng pointed to his arms and shoulder blades, "It's still close to a knife in the heart." ”
Yan Tao looked at him coldly, "Five years ago, the Holy Lord let you go, let you stiffen and not die to renew the incense for the Cai family, but you actually came from looking for a way to die." ”
"I, a stiff man, can't die, no one is interested, but the life of His Royal Highness King Qi is wanted by many people." Cai Rongcheng said with a strange aura, "I'm just a fisherman to pick up a leak." ”
In his ears, the north wind blew and whirred, the royal battle for the crown prince has been bloody and cruel since ancient times, but what Ji Rongjin didn't expect was that she was actually implicated.
Needless to say, the chaos in the heart is against each other, and time seems to have stopped, too hard, too hard.
"Rong'er!"
Ji Rongjin was named, and looked at the crazy criticism in shock, what fisherman is not a fisherman, is it a tool that has been borrowed by others to kill people.
She bit her lip, but she just didn't respond.
"At the end of the first month, you forgot?" Cai Rong Chengyin swished remind.
She subconsciously looked at the gold bracelet with a mechanism on her wrist, raised her eyes, and snorted coldly, "So what?" ”
Cai Rongcheng said sharply: "Kill him." ”
Yan Tao squinted slightly, glanced at Cai Rong'er, and stood straight and motionless, as if the matter had nothing to do with him.
Ji Rongjin exhaled and looked downstairs on the street, the soldiers and horses patrolling the city fought against the men in black, people were so frightened that they fled everywhere, people were crowded, and some people were trampled to death, obviously happy to see the lantern festival, the result was ......
She pinched her heart, slammed off the gold bracelet on her wrist, opened the mechanism, and pinched up the poison, "Use it to kill King Qi?" ”
Kang Tai looked at his master in horror, dozens of people in black added poison, could they ...... today? I can't even think about it, "Temple...... Your Highness ......"
Yan Tao turned his head slightly, "Cai Rong'er ......"
Sure enough, he really knew the identity of the deity, Ji Rongjin shook his head and smiled, and glanced at the sky, "No, I'm Ji Rongjin." With that, he threw the poison in his hand into his mouth.
"Rong'er......" Cai Rongcheng roared sharply.
No one expected that Ji Rongjin would swallow the poison, not only that, but she turned around sharply, turned over and jumped off the restaurant, so fast that Yan Tao didn't have time to pull her.
Kang Tai and another guard took advantage of this moment of chaos to protect their master and fight their way out of the encirclement.
"Kill, kill me!" Cai Rongcheng, who is dressed in white, is like a zombie white ghost who eats people, pushing a wheelchair and climbing to the railing to look down.
On the floor of the restaurant, the woman who jumped downstairs after eating poison was stained in a pool of blood.
Sister, his sister......
On the streets, there was endless killing, fleeing, jumping, and there were still people to see the dead Ji Rongjin.
As the King of Qi escaped, the streets were finally devoid of patrolling soldiers and horses to fight against the men in black, and the crowd was freed from the squeezing, and they ran home as if they were dead.
On the moonlit and starry Shangyuan Festival, it suddenly rained heavily.
In the middle of the night, it was pitch black.
On the street, empty, beautiful lanterns, wet by the rain, fell to the ground, and were in a mess.
In front of the restaurant, a carriage suddenly came, someone jumped out of the carriage, as if looking for something, looked around and didn't see it, his face was anxious and pale, and he knocked on the door of the restaurant.
The people in the restaurant opened the door tremblingly.
"Where's the woman at the door?"
The shopkeeper followed the question and looked at the blood, "Was it still there just now?" He was also strange, so he hurried out and looked left and right, "Just half a moment ago, the steward asked me if the people from the yamen had dragged me away." He snapped his head, "Probably dragged away by the city patrols." ”
The girl hurriedly went to the side of the carriage, "Xiangjun, I was dragged away by the yacha." ”
"Hurry up and inquire where it has been dragged to."
"Yes, Fellow."
Before the carriage had time to turn around, the patrolman shouted on the street, "Curfew, curfew, from today onwards, no one is allowed to go out at the time of the unitary, and violators will be arrested and imprisoned." ”
Heavy rain overnight.
The next day, the weather cleared, and the lantern-laden street market looked no different than usual, but the families whose family members had been trampled to death slowly decayed with the death.
On the ground at the entrance of the restaurant, the disappeared King Qi's 'favorite concubine' is insignificant compared to this disaster, as if she has never appeared in the capital.
That night, the assassination of King Qi was obviously seen by many people, but no one dared to mention it, no one dared to gossip about the open secret, only fear remained in people's hearts.
