Chapter 194: The Man in the Black Robe
After a long time, the movement outside gradually stopped, but Shen Mingjiao still sat still. When you're not sure if it's safe, the best thing to do is to stay there and not cause trouble.
It wasn't until a few more moments later that there was a knock on the door.
Tie Zhu asked in a low voice outside, "Princess, are you okay?" β
"It's okay, how's it going outside? Are things all settled? β
As he spoke, he walked over and opened the door. As soon as the door opened, there was a pungent smell of blood.
Through the light display in his hand, he could faintly see that there were uncleaned blood stains in the corridor, but the body was gone, and it was thought that it had been disposed of.
Tie Zhu said, "The assassins have all been taken. β
"Are you hurt? What about Your Highness? β
While speaking, the three of them walked along the corridor to the room where Feng Lisheng was.
Tie Zhu didn't hide it, and his voice was a little deep:
"The assassins I met this time were very skilled, but fortunately, His Highness had already prepared, and even so, more than a dozen brothers on our side were injured, but fortunately, no one died. His Highness and Feng Wu inspect the corpse of the Assassin. β
Shen Mingjiao sighed secretly, since the other party was coming for Shuo'er, it must be the murderer who killed the former prince and his wife back then.
Getting the news so quickly and putting it into action can only show that the strength of the other party is stronger than imagined.
When they arrived at the guest room, Feng Lisheng and Feng Shuo were not there, and Tie Zhu said: "I should have gone downstairs." β
This group of people are all good at one against ten, such people are generally hard-boned, if you want to ask something, it is absolutely impossible to be gentle. Tie Zhu estimated that His Royal Highness was afraid of scaring the princess.
Shen Mingjiao went to the lobby downstairs, and sure enough, she saw Feng Shuo surrounded by several guards.
The little guy still had a blank face, and Shen Mingjiao obviously noticed that he was very unhappy.
She stepped forward, squatted down slightly, raised her hand and waved it in front of his eyes, and her voice was playful:
"Why, this is scared! It's okay, kid, it's normal to be scared and cry. β
She patted herself on the shoulder and deliberately said in a soft voice: "Come, mother hug." β
Feng Shuo turned his face in disgust, but he felt a lot better when she was interrupted like this.
Shen Mingjiao took his hand: "Let's go, let's go find your uncle and grandfather." β
The two of them walked out of the lobby and headed towards the backyard of the inn, just at this time Han Dong came from afar with Yun Shu.
Yun Shu looked up, and the next moment her face changed, and she shouted in the direction of the two: "Be carefulβ"
Feng Shuo sensed that something was approaching him quickly, and before he could do anything, he was pulled behind him.
The guards who followed out watched as a feather arrow swept towards Shen Mingjiao and the others.
They flew and carried light feats, and rushed towards the two of them at the fastest speed in their lives. It's a pity that no matter how fast they are, they can't be faster than Feather Arrows.
In an empty room not far from here, Feng Lisheng, who was interrogating the assassins, heard this shout, stood up violently, and broke through the door.
At this critical moment, seeing that the feather arrow was about to hit Shen Mingjiao, the floating light that had no sense of existence while standing beside Shen Mingjiao moved.
She suddenly pushed Shen Mingjiao and the two away, and then leaned back, avoiding the feather arrow at an extremely tricky and weird angle.
With a "bang", the arrow landed on the wall not far behind him.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, Shen Mingjiao covered her pounding heart, panting heavily,
At the same time, he subconsciously looked up, and saw a man in a black robe and a ghost mask holding a bow and arrow in his hand on a big tree outside the inn.
By the time she was about to take a closer look, the man had already flown away.
At the same moment, Feng Shuo, whose face was pale, seemed to feel something, and suddenly raised his head.
In an instant, he seemed to be back to that year, his mother held him, the arrow pierced his mother's chest, and the smell of blood was everywhere in his nose.
As soon as he turned around, a man dressed in black and wearing a ghost mask stood on a high place, looking down at him indifferently, as if looking at a disdainful ant.
The images coincided, and the man was still standing at the top, looking at him with a contemptuous and defiant gaze.
With a bang in his brain, he broke away from Shen Mingjiao's hand and rushed in the direction where the man disappeared like crazy.
The body was hugged from behind, and Shen Mingjiao's anxious voice came from his ears.
"Don't be impulsive, Your Highness has already gone after you."
Feng Shuo didn't seem to hear anything, his mind was full of blood gushing from his mother's chest, and he could only cry helplessly.
He had always thought that he had forgotten a long time ago, but it turned out that he had always remembered it deeply.
His eyes were red at this time, and he was desperately trying to break free from Shen Mingjiao's clamps, like a crazy little leopard.
"Let go of me, I'm going to kill him! He killed my mother! β
"Quick, catch him!"
Two guards stepped forward to grab the person, and Feng Shuo kicked his legs and struggled desperately: "Let go of my ......"
Shen Mingjiao motioned for the two to let go, stepped forward and pressed his small body to the ground, lowered his head and stared at his red eyes, and said word by word:
"You want to kill him, don't you? But look, you can't even get out now, you tell me, how are you going to kill? Are you alone? β
The little guy's red eyes froze, but his body instinctively continued to struggle.
Shen Mingjiao softened her tone: "There is only one life for people, and your mother worked hard to give birth to you, not for you to bring Huohuo." Before you have enough strength, just relying on a grievance to go on a rampage, that's not courage, that's stupidity. If your mother knew, she would not be moved, but sad. β
I don't know which of her words touched the child's nerves, the little guy's mood suddenly collapsed, he finally stopped struggling, hugged his head and cried:
"Woo...... He killed my mother...... Do you know...... He killed my mother...... But I can't do anything but cry......"
Shen Mingjiao hugged the person tightly in her arms, stroked his back one by one, and when she saw him like this, her eyes couldn't help but be a little sour:
"It's okay, we have to think about it from another angle, although you can't beat him now, but we're young! How old are you now, maybe the other party is already gray-haired? Even if we can't beat him, we can boil him to death! β
Feng Shuo, who was outbursting emotionally: "......" was not comforted.
He turned his head in disgust: "I don't want it, I want to defeat him in a dignified manner." β
"That's fine, but you wipe your tears first, it's ugly."
Shen Mingjiao hugged the little guy for a while, Xu was really tired, and finally fell asleep in her arms.
Shen Mingjiao looked at his sleeping little face, this child always likes to have a blank face on weekdays, but when he sleeps, he is indescribably beautiful and well-behaved.
There was never a moment when she was so glad that she was reborn that she met the child early, and although the little one always likes to keep a straight face, he still has the innocent impulse that a child should have, instead of wearing a mask forever and isolating everyone like in his previous life.
She handed the little one to the iron pillar and asked him to carry the person back to the guest room,
At this time, Feng Lisheng, who was chasing the black-robed man, came back, she stepped forward, grabbed his hand, and asked worriedly: "Aren't you injured?" β
Feng Lisheng waved his hand: "It's okay." Let's go inside. β
