Chapter 184: Desperate Killer
Hunting Palace.
King Lin's tent.
After three rounds of drinking, the more and more they talked about Wuji and King Lin, the relationship between them became closer and closer unconsciously.
"If Childe had arrived in the capital earlier, maybe you and I would have become close friends."
Li Yuan looked at Li Wuji and said sincerely, with a pity smile on his face.
"It's not too late now, the depth of friendship between people is not about how long they have known each other."
"It's a friend, you can be a friend at a moment, some people may not be all the way together in a lifetime, what does the prince think?"
Li Wuji smiled and said slowly.
"Childe Takami! It's the king who is hypocritical, and he deserves to punish himself! ”
Li Yuan shook his head and smiled bitterly and took a drink.
Li Wuji smiled and lost a glass.
The two of them have been sitting for a long time, and they have not lost their wine, and they are already a little drunk.
"Lord Wang! Something happened! ”
At this moment, a palace guard walked in quickly and said in a panic.
"What kind of system is it to be so reckless?!"
Liyuan's face sank, and he reproached him dissatisfiedly.
"The prince forgives his sins!"
The guard was stunned for a moment, glanced at Li Wuji, and hurriedly bent down to salute.
"When was you so flustered?!"
Li Yuan kept a calm face and continued to speak.
"Your Majesty has been assassinated!"
The guard swallowed his saliva and said with a solemn face.
"What?!"
Hearing the words of his subordinates, Li Yuan was shocked, and stood up directly, his face full of surprise.
Li Wuji was also stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
"The result?! How is Your Majesty?! ”
Li Yuan then asked.
"Back to the prince's words, Your Majesty is fine, but he was a little frightened, and has now returned to the dormitory, guarded by the Qilin Heavenly Master."
The subordinate hurriedly replied.
"What the hell is going on?! How could a good person be assassinated?! ”
Li Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked puzzled.
"The Imperial Forest Army stumbled upon the sight of a green fox in the mountains and forests, and the ministers went hunting on a whim."
His Majesty also heard about this, so he personally got on his horse and went out to hunt, but he didn't expect that that thing was not a green fox at all! It's a killer! ”
"I heard that it's still a woman! The martial arts are strong, and Lan Zhan and Ye Han have failed to take it down under the combined efforts! In the end, it was the disciple of the Qilin Heavenly Master who personally intervened to injure the assassin, but still let her escape! ”
"The Royal Forest Army has sealed the mountain, and the Duying Guard, the Five Elements Division, and the Red Fish Guard are all dispatched and are chasing and killing this person in the mountain!"
The guard arched his hand and said in a fifteen-ten.
"Killer?! Or a woman?! ”
After listening to this, Liyuan's expression was complicated, and he muttered to himself.
"Childe, I'm afraid I can only go here today, Your Majesty has been assassinated, we should not continue to drink and have fun, this king must go to visit immediately now."
Li Yuan hesitated for a moment, then turned his head and looked at Li Wuji embarrassedly and said.
"That's nature! The prince is at his own convenience. ”
"There are no officials and no positions below, and there should be many people in His Majesty's dormitory at this time, so it is inconvenient to go below."
"But if there's something you need to help with, it's your duty!"
Li Wuji nodded and said seriously.
Li Yuan agreed, and immediately left the camp tent quickly, and went straight to the empress's bedroom.
Li Wuji frowned and slowly walked out of the tent.
Although he didn't care about the life and death of the empress, according to his plan, the empress should not die at this time.
He was also guessing what the origin of the female assassin would be!
"It can't be from the abyss, right?"
Li Wuji came to the outside of the tent, glanced at Lu Yuan, who slowly came to his side, and asked in a low voice.
"Probably not, our people did follow, but they were all lurking outside Qinghu Mountain, and they didn't receive a warning signal, so they wouldn't enter the mountain without permission."
"What's more, if someone in the abyss plans to take advantage of this trip to the palace hunt to assassinate the empress, it is impossible for Lao Cao not to know."
Lu Yuan shook his head and said with an affirmative expression.
"That's good."
Li Wuji nodded, pondered for a moment, and turned to walk in the direction of his tent.
Whether the empress is dead or alive, he doesn't care, anyway, the killer didn't succeed in assassinating, and it won't affect his plan.
He didn't want to show his face at this time, so he thought that the incident had nothing to do with him, and when he returned to the camp, he fell asleep and pretended that nothing had happened.
A whole day and night passed, and the killer was still not found, and the scheduled garden hunt had to be canceled.
In desperation, for the sake of the empress's safety, the civil and military officials advised one after another, asking the empress to return to the capital first, leaving the Five Elements Division and the capital camp guard to assist the Royal Forest Army to continue to search the mountain.
As soon as Wuji got up early in the morning, he heard the news, and didn't say anything, telling Lu Yuan to pack up his things and prepare to leave at any time.
A birthday hunt will eventually be defeated, but no one complains, after all, their own lives are more important, who knows how many killers there are in this mountain forest.
An hour later, everyone assembled and prepared to return to the capital.
Li Wuji walked out of the camp tent and glanced at the carriage of the empress who had left first not far away, squinted his eyes, and slowly walked towards the carriage.
Lu Yuan held the sword box and slowly followed.
"Childe?!"
But just a few steps away, Lu Yuan's face had already changed, he looked at the carriage with a solemn expression, and reminded in a low voice.
Li Wuji turned his head to look at Lu Yuan, pursed his lips and smiled, and continued to walk towards the carriage without saying a word.
Lu Yuan's face was solemn, his fists were clenched, and he was ready to shoot at any time!
Li Wuji walked to the front of the car casually, slowly got into the car, and walked into the carriage without changing his face.
But as soon as he stepped into the carriage, a sword was directly pressed against his neck!
A woman dressed in green clothes and veiled on her face was half-squatting at the door of the carriage, looking at Li Wuji coldly, as if as long as Li Wuji made any sound, she would not hesitate to cut off Li Wuji's neck!
But soon she was shocked, because Li Wuji's face was not only not the slightest flustered, but showed a light smile, and then directly ignored the sword in her hand, walked straight into the depths of the carriage, and sat down by herself!
Lu Yuan, who was standing outside the carriage, was engrossed, staring at the door of the carriage, as long as there was a slight mistake, he would immediately rush into the carriage!
"Let's go, she won't dare to kill me!"
Li Wuji glanced at the door of the carriage and said lightly.
Hearing Li Wuji's words, the woman in Tsing Yi frowned, and couldn't help but look at Li Wuji again, her eyes full of surprise.
Lu Yuan hesitated, slowly got into the car, closed the carriage door, and slowly followed behind the large army in the carriage.
"You already knew I was in there?!"
The woman in Tsing Yi was silent for a moment, and finally asked, her voice was soft, but there was a hint of murder.
Li Wuji smiled and nodded, and glanced up and down at the woman in Tsing Yi with interest.
"What are you looking at?! Warn you not to mess around, or I'll kill you with a sword! ”
The woman in Tsing Yi frowned, lowered her voice, and said coldly.
"Don't you dare to kill me!"
Li Wuji said with a smile.
"You're so sure?!"
The woman in Tsing Yi snorted coldly and asked disdainfully.
"You are hiding in the carriage because you want to escape through this carriage, if you kill me now, he will definitely fight with you!"
"He's a nine-rank swordsman, it's not that easy to deal with, and once you fight, you'll be completely exposed, and at that time, do you think you'll be able to escape alive?"
Li Wuji smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said slowly, but it was more relaxed than the woman in Tsing Yi.
Hearing Li Wuji's words, the woman in Tsing Yi frowned, and her expression became solemn.
"But you're lucky, I've always done good deeds without leaving a name, as long as you're honest, I'll voluntarily send you away safely."
Li Wuji continued to smile and said.
"Why do you want to help me?!"
The woman in Tsing Yi asked puzzled.
"Because you've done something that many people don't dare to do, but I hope this is the last time, and if you dare to do it a second time, I'll kill you with my own hands!"
Li Wuji looked at the woman in Tsing Yi and said lightly, although the smile on the corner of his mouth was still there, but the words were full of murderous intent!
"You don't look like a courtier, but you can move freely in the hunting palace, who are you?!"
The woman in Tsing Yi hesitated for a moment and asked coldly.
"Since I'm not going to ask about your origins, you'd better not ask, it's good for you and for me."
Li Wuji smiled and said lightly.
The woman in Tsing Yi hesitated for a moment, and finally stopped asking.
In this way, neither of them spoke again, and followed the carriage quietly in the direction of the entrance of the hunting palace.
The hunting palace is very large, and there are many carriages and horses, so it will take some time to leave the hunting palace and Qinghu Mountain.
But the woman in Tsing Yi didn't seem to be able to wait too long, because she had injuries on her body, blood was constantly oozing from the clothes on her shoulders, and a lot of blood was dripping from the carriage.
Due to excessive blood loss, the woman's cheeks in Tsing Yi have become more and more pale.
Li Wuji was silent for a while, and suddenly reached out and leaned over the shoulder of the woman in Tsing Yi.
"What to do?!"
The woman in Tsing Yi was stunned for a moment, and asked in a deep voice, her face full of vigilance.
"If you keep going like this, you'll die."
"I've learned some medical skills, so I can help you heal your injuries first."
Li Wuji smiled and said with a serious face.
But his seriousness at this time, in the eyes of the woman in Tsing Yi, is more like a malicious courtesy.
"Shameless!"
"You don't have to worry about it!"
The woman in Tsing Yi snorted coldly and said disdainfully.
Li Wuji smiled helplessly, no longer insisted, but blatantly began to close his eyes and recuperate, and even gradually hummed a tune in his mouth.
Seeing this scene, the woman in Tsing Yi gritted her teeth and was about to go crazy.
It was the first time she felt like she was the one who had been held hostage...
