Qingjiujiu's walk was steady, and if someone who didn't know the inside story looked at her, she didn't look like she was injured at all.

However, the moment she walked in front of the tree trunk, she paused, clasped her hands to her chest and said, "Break each other, don't hide, right?" ”

"Shi, Gong, Gong?"

The atmosphere was deadlocked, and almost when Qing Jiujiu shouted these three words, there was a layer of heavy killing intent under the dark curtain around him.

Falling leaves are slaughtered.

At the moment when the sword broke through the air, Qing Jiujiu took the lead in taking two steps back.

The man behind the tree finally appeared.

The robe and hat are added, the face is covered, and the eyes are the ones that Qingjiujiu has seen several times.

The narrow Danfeng eyes will bring a hint of flattery when smiling.

When you don't laugh - your eyes are full of murderous intent.

He didn't say anything, and the back of his hand gripping the hilt of his sword was bruised.

"There are assassins!" There was a sudden sound and shouting in the distance, but it was not in the Hall of Celebration, but in the palace a little farther away.

Qing Jiujiu's eyes were quick, and he flashed forward, and his fingers quickly clicked on the man's body a few times.

As he expected, the black clothes on the man's abdomen had been soaked with blood, staining a dark color—

He's hurt.

Qingjiujiu lit his hemostatic point, his body suddenly weakened, and the whole person poured on Qingjiujiu's body as if he couldn't support it.

"Hmm-"

This sound was not made by him, but Qingjiu.

The wound in her abdomen may not be as heavy as his, but it was still too hard to bear the weight of a man.

After helping the person into the trunk of the tree, under cover, Qingjiujiu quickly ripped off his mask.

The face that was revealed was indeed Father-in-law Shi.

"Are you crazy? Who are you going to kill for the New Year? ”

A hint of ridicule flashed at the corner of Father-in-law's mouth: "Each other, isn't the princess also very glorious?" ”

Since they are all facing each other, then everyone should not pretend.

"This wound, the other party is really going for your life." Qing Jiujiu saw a heavy wound on his abdomen, as if his flesh and blood were blurred.

The palace of the previous dynasty was basically used to house some foreign envoys or ministers and princes of various countries who came to visit the Great Zhou.

Generally, they are important people, and they have to be beheaded if something happens.

Recently, in time for the Chinese New Year, there is no shortage of guests from some countries in front of me.

The turmoil came from that side, and Father-in-law's injury had nothing to do with that side.

This person usually has a look on his face, accompanies the little emperor, and is clever and clever, but he can do such a thing.

When the feast was held, others were still celebrating the temple.

Qing Jiujiu took out Fang Cai's gold sore medicine, and poured it all on his wound as if he didn't want money: "Who is Father-in-law Shi going to kill?" ”

The other party pursed his lips, and the medicine was poured on the wound, tearing and hurting.

But he is obviously not a person who can't bear the pain, he doesn't want to talk.

"If you don't say it, then I'll guess." Qing Jiujiu tore off a piece of cloth from the corner of his skirt, bypassed Shi Gong's abdomen, and tied a knot fiercely.

She handled the wound neatly and quickly.

Almost in the blink of an eye, the bleeding from the wound stopped.

"The ceremonial officials who came to Da Zhou to present gifts this time, Shangyang, Qi Chu, Nanyue Three Kingdoms, Nanyue Because Nanyue is a small country, it is the little prince who came, so he was at the banquet."

Shi Gonggong's eyes flashed, and there was a hint of disbelief that swept over, and he looked at Qingjiujiu.

Qing Jiujiu continued: "Shangyang and Qi Chu are all ceremonial officials, and their positions are not enough to attend the banquet, so they stay in the palace. ”

"Qi Chu's ceremonial official is a woman, and it is unlikely that Father-in-law Shi was cut like this under a female ceremonial official, so you went to the palace of Shangyang Kingdom, right?"

I don't know if it's my own delusion.

He always felt that Qingjiujiu said that this large analysis was actually just a fabrication, as if she knew where she had gone from the beginning.

Sure enough, the next moment his thoughts were confirmed.

"Shi drunk, you are not from Da Zhou."

The name of Father-in-law Shi has been in the palace for more than ten years.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, he was promoted to the head of the inner cabinet and was in charge of the emperor's internal affairs.

For so many years, even in the palace inscriptions, the name Shi Zui is not recorded.

But the wine is .......

Shi Zui raised his eyes and clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand.

"Don't get excited," Qingjiujiu pressed his hand, "If I wanted to expose you, I wouldn't have drugged you." ”

Voices from outside came closer, shouting, and soon caused a panic.

Even if the assassination was an envoy from another country, it was enough to cause a sensation in the defense of the palace.

It won't be long before the Praetorian Army searches the area.

Qing Jiujiu didn't ask Shi Zui about the purpose of assassinating the Shangyang State Rite Officer, but just said, "It's too late, where are your clothes?" ”

"Dance, Dance and Music Hall."

Shi Zui is the person who is most familiar with the palace, and it is not difficult to avoid patrols.

The hard thing is the wound on his body.

Once the injury is examined, it must be exposed.

The palace is in a mess tonight, and it's hard to say if you can take advantage of the chaos to go to the Mairakuden.

The dancers in the Dance Hall have to go back to change their clothes every time they finish a dance, so that time will never be long.

Qingjiu thought about it in his heart, and reached out to help him up: "Go!" ”

"Princess, if you intervene in my hand and are found out, this matter cannot be explained clearly in a few words."

Qingjiu is not idle, nothing has to be nosy.

She was drunk when she was half-supported, and she was also injured, and she seemed a little struggling: "Just for me for your parents." ”

When drunk, the footsteps were paused.

When he looked over, the woman's plain white face was dripping with cold sweat, but it was difficult to hide her beauty.

He smiled innocently: "When did you check me?" ”

"Actually, no," Qingjiujiu denied: "It's just that when I saw you for the first time, when I heard your surname, I remembered that I had heard an old incident in Shangyang Kingdom in the two years I was away, saying that there was a Shi family back then, who had been practicing medicine for generations, and later because he refused to diagnose and treat a secret disease of the Shangyang royal family that year, he was wiped out by the whole family." ”

Hearing this, Shi Zui's eyes darkened.

"The Shi family and his wife were good people and saved many people," Qingjiujiu patted him on the shoulder comfortingly: "But the situation is different, and many things are not reasonable at all." ”

Although I don't know how Shi Zui survived, it is not surprising that he wants revenge.

After all, there were more than 10 people in the family back then, and I heard that all of them were hanged at the door of their homes.

"Just now when I mentioned Shangyang, killing intent welled up in your eyes, and I knew that I was not wrong."

Shi Zui said: "I thought the princess was just a little clever, but I didn't expect to look down on it." ”

This is also normal.

In this palace, who doesn't feel that he has seen through others and calculated.

But the fact is that Qingjiu was stabbed by his mother.

"Shangyang Etiquette Officer is not worth it when you are risky and impulsive, then the Etiquette Officer is someone else?"

Although the two of them were injured, they were agile, and when they reached out that there was no one in the dance hall, they pushed the door and entered.

"That's not a ceremonial official at all, but the great prince of Shangyang, Meng Jiu'an."

Qing Jiujiu made a move.

Meng Jiu'an?

"I saw him when I was a child, and the death of my parents had nothing to do with him."

So Shi Zui saw Meng Jiu'an's appearance clearly, so he couldn't help but take the risk, right?

The hatred of the country and the hatred of the family is not clear at all.

However, as soon as the door of the Dance Hall was closed, Qing Xiuxiu took advantage of the chaos to withdraw from the main hall and looked for the shadow of Qing Jiujiu everywhere.

At this time, the forbidden army also surrounded the former court.

The scene was chaotic for a while.
