Chapter 23
In the dark night, two black figures dodged one after the other in the palace. Both of them covered their faces. One of the men in black covered the bleeding wound on his arm with one hand, and followed the man in black who was looking for the way in front of him.

The two were shuttling through the palace, the ears of the man in black in front of him moved, he stopped suddenly, and took the injured man in black to hide on the beam. After a while, the place where the two stood before was soon surrounded by palace guards. come over.

The guards checked here and left without noticing anything unusual. The man in black waited cautiously for half an hour before jumping off the beam with his injured companion.

The injured man in black was not seriously injured, and it was more than enough for the two of them to leave the palace together. He gestured to his companion to leave together, but the other man in black didn't move, just stood where he was.

"Not leaving yet..."

Before he finished speaking, a silver light flashed in front of his eyes, and a column of blood spurted out from between his neck, splashing blood all over the wall, and the injured man in black died on the spot.

But his companion was holding a blade, the silver blade glowed coldly under the moonlight, the blood on the tip of the blade fell drop by drop on the pure white snow, blooming snow lotuses on the originally pure white falling snow.

His face was completely covered, and against the background of the white snow, he revealed a pair of cold and dead eyes, such indifferent and calm eyes, as if the person who killed his companion just now was not him.

"I'm sorry, those who fail the mission have only one way to die." In tonight's operation, as a stalker, his primary task is not to assist his companions in completing the assassination, but to kill the killer when the mission fails, so as to avoid complications.

His voice sounded very young, he was in the period of changing his voice when he was a teenager, he should not be very old, although he said sorry words, but his eyes were still indifferent, and he was not even half moved by the death of his companion.

"who!"

Just as the man in black was about to withdraw and leave, he heard someone walking towards this side, his heart froze.

The cold moonlight reflected the man's sharp and chiseled face. It was Fu Zhuo, the commander of the Shenwu Army who was ordered to keep the year old on New Year's Eve.

As soon as the news of King Yue's assassination came out, the Holy Majesty ordered the search of the palace, vowing to arrest the assassin.

Seeing the man in black acting suspiciously, and seeing the man in black lying dead on the ground, Fu Zhuo was full of doubts, but he was not dissatisfied with his movements, and struck towards the opponent's door with a palm full of inner strength.

The man in black was able to sneak into the palace without anyone noticing. He was not weak. He leaned back and flipped back a few times, out of the range of Fu Zhuo's attack.A sharp light flashed in Fu Zhuo's eyes, and the wind was blowing under his feet, and he approached quickly. The man in black had no way to retreat, so he had to fight Fu Zhuo. In the blink of an eye, the two had passed dozens of moves.

Fu Zhuo's eyes were sharp and his hands were quick. Seeing the opponent's weakness, he kicked the black-clothed man under the crotch and made a feint. When the opponent was defending the chassis, he slapped the black-clothed man's chest again.

The man in black followed Fu Zhuo's words, and was hit by his palm full of internal energy. He suddenly felt the blood in his viscera surging, and spit out a mouthful of blood with a "wow", and the blood seeped into the black cloth covering his face.

Seeing the situation, Fu Zhuo took advantage of the situation and pursued, drew out the saber at his waist and slashed at the man in black. Fu Zhuo's movements were not fancy, but they were more practical. Facing the menacing and imposing attack, the man in black tried his best to dodge After a few sword strikes, he had suffered an internal injury after all. At this time, his strength was not enough, and his dodging movements were much slower. It was still inevitable that he would be injured by Fu Zhuo's continuous strokes.

The breathing of the man in black also became a little disordered. He was forced to retreat by Fu Zhuo at this time, but Fu Zhuo was able to handle it with ease. The man in black knew that he was invincible. If he continued to stay here with Fu Zhuo, he would be captured alive. It's a matter of time.

Thinking of this in his heart, the man in black gritted his teeth, luckily fled in the opposite direction, Fu Zhuo didn't expect the other party to run away without warning, so he chased forward lightly, but the other party wanted to escape wholeheartedly, and did not Don't get entangled with Fu Zhuo, the structure inside the palace is very complicated, the man in black dodges from left to right, then he dodges into a building and disappears.

Fu Zhuo wanted to take him down, but he hated that the man in black was as slippery as a loach. Fu Zhuo lost him after chasing him, but he had to give up.

……

At the palace banquet, the palace banquet, which was going well, suddenly appeared at this time, which caused the officials attending the banquet to panic, and the palace banquet was forced to be suspended. The dependents left the imperial city.

Jin Changying also left the palace with the two maids who accompanied her to the banquet. As for the heroine Jin Yuanjun, she left early in the morning with the eldest princess and her party that she met at the banquet. Ying is in the same room.

This assassination was also mentioned in the original book, but Jin Changying didn't take it to heart, because it had nothing to do with the heroine, and the assassination was unsuccessful, so it had no special impact on the heroine, so Jin Changying Ying didn't take it seriously.

But now insisting on saying what it has to do with her, Jin Changying looked at Su Yi who was sitting by the window of the carriage. The person who participated in this assassination was Su Yi's younger brother, who was also raised by the Han family in Longchuan. The killer is also an unlucky child.

Jin Changying leaned on the soft pillow on the couch, supported half of her face with one hand, and looked at Su Yi, who was still ignorant at this time, with sympathy. If she knew that her own brother was deeply trapped in the palace at this time, Those who were rounded up by the guards might not be so calm.

But Jin Changying couldn't help her, if she acted rashly at this time, I'm afraid she herself would be implicated, and the gain would outweigh the gain if it was not worth the loss.

"County Master, the County Fu sent word that let the County Master leave first, and the County Fu may not be able to leave to go back to the house tonight." Zi Tang said from the side.

Jin Changying waved his hand lazily and said, "Let's go, he has official duties, let's go back to the house first." With such a big thing happening in the palace tonight, Fu Zhuo naturally has to be on standby in the imperial city.

After Jin Changying finished speaking, the carriage moved slowly, and the wheels of the carriage made a screeching sound on the bluestone road. When the carriage had traveled a certain distance and Jin Changying was lying on the couch and was about to fall asleep, Su Yi's nose moved , and then asked Jin Changying: "Sister, do you smell a bloody smell?"

She was raised as a killer in the Han family since she was a child, and her five senses are much more sensitive than ordinary people. At this time, she smelled a faint smell of blood in her nose. Not only that, Su Yi always had an ominous premonition in her heart.

"Bloody smell? What kind of bloody smell?" Jin Changying sniffed his nose and sniffed the air, but he didn't smell the bloody smell Su Yi said, "No, how can there be—"

Jin Changying spoke halfway, but stopped abruptly.

Wouldn't it be so coincidental?

Jin Changying immediately lifted the curtain of the window of the carriage, but saw a body lying dead or alive far away from the carriage.

Jin Changying knew that he must still be alive, because besides the villain Su Xuan in the original book, there would be no other person lying here.
