At this moment, Yu Wenxuan heard a rush of footsteps above her head, and before she could raise her head, a man in black jumped down from the eaves of the gate of Su Mansion, and landed lightly on the other side of Su Yao. Steady, just stab Su Yao with a sword...

At this time, the soldiers were all fighting with the man in black. No one expected that someone would come out from such an unexpected place. At this time, it was too late for them to save Su Yao.

Fortunately, Yu Wenxuan reacted quickly. With a wave of her long sword, she swung away the deadly sword that the man in black stabbed at Su Yao. At the same time, she flickered and stood in front of Su Yao again...

When the man in black saw Yu Wenxuan, his eyes flashed a strange color, but then his eyes turned cold, and without talking nonsense, he directly swung his sword at Yu Wenxuan.

Not to be outdone, Yu Wenxuan fought with the opponent with a sword.

Just as soon as they fought, Yu Wenxuan felt that the other party's skill seemed to be superior to her own, and she couldn't help but secretly startled. She didn't understand what kind of enemy Xiao Jie or Su Yao had offended. The other party actually invited such a powerful killer to deal with it them.

Yu Wenxuan fought with the opponent for dozens of rounds. Although she didn't let the opponent take advantage of it, she gradually felt that she was exhausted, but the opponent was getting more and more courageous as she fought, and she had no flaws. She couldn't help but see a lot of fine lines on her forehead. The thin beads of sweat seemed to be unable to hold on.

Fortunately, the guards were all strong in martial arts, with great skills, coupled with the superiority in numbers, they cooperated tacitly, and quickly killed several assassins. The remaining few were either injured or exhausted, and gradually showed signs of decline ...

The man in black who had been fighting with Yu Wenxuan also noticed the defeat of his own team from the corner of his eye, and he deliberately sold an opening to Yu Wenxuan.

Yu Wenxuan, who was still struggling to support herself, saw that she didn't have time to think about it, and almost instinctively swung her sword to attack the man in black's opening, but unexpectedly, she hit the man in black's arms. He sneered, and his figure changed instantly. Suddenly turning from defense to offense, with a force in his hand, he directly knocked down the long sword in Yu Wenxuan's hand.

"Under the pain in Yu Wenxuan's wrist, the long sword clanged" and flew out...

But the man in black did not take the opportunity to attack the unarmed Yu Wenxuan, but stabbed Su Yao in the chest again...

Su Yao was so frightened that Huarong turned pale, but she couldn't dodge at all. She was about to die on the spot...

But Yu Wenxuan suddenly moved her body, jumped up, and directly bumped Su Yao away with her body. Su Yao was knocked a few steps away, but was able to avoid the fatal blow that the man in black was bound to receive ...

But Su Yao was not at all happy, because she found that the long sword in the man's hand had pierced Yu Wenxuan's shoulder with a sword, and blood gushed out...

The man in black looked at Yu Wenxuan in disbelief, as if he never thought that she would take Su Yao's sword with flesh and blood...

At this time, the soldiers of Prince Qi's Mansion had already dealt with the other assassins, and rushed up to besiege the man in black. The man in black knew that it was impossible to assassinate Su Yao anymore, so he had to take a bitter look at Yu Wenxuan, and was unwilling to look at Su Yao again. , before the guards surrounded him, he jumped up onto the eaves of the gate of the Su Mansion, and fled away, some of the guards quickly chased after him...

Su Yao pushed aside the crowd in front of her, rushed to Yu Wenxuan, looked at Yu Wenxuan lying in a pool of blood, and asked anxiously, "Miss Lian'er, are you okay?"

A relieved smile appeared on Yu Wenxuan's face, and she murmured: "Xiao Jie, I owe you, let's pay it off this time."

After saying that, his eyes darkened, his head tilted, and he fainted on the spot...

Seeing Yu Wenxuan fainted, Su Yao was in a panic, and immediately shouted to the others: "Why are you still standing there, go and call the doctor."

……

Although Su Yao didn't want to say anything, in less than half a day, the news of Princess Qi's assassination spread like wind throughout the streets and alleys of Luoyang City, and also reached the ears of Emperor Xiao Ji through Qilin Guard.

Xiao Ji learned that there was an assassin assassinating his son's concubine at the foot of the emperor in broad daylight. Longyan was furious and ordered Qilinwei to immediately investigate the case, find the assassin, and give an explanation to King Qi and Princess Qi.

The command of the Qilin Guard made Zhang Chu feel a little stressed. After all, it was King Qi first, then King Qin, and now it was Princess Qi's turn. Three assassinations against the royal family occurred in the capital city in two years. How could the emperor not be angry? If I can't solve the case and catch the assassin as soon as possible, I, the commander of the Qilin Guard, may have to do it too.

Under heavy pressure, Zhang Chu had no choice but to take a slant and sent a large number of unicorn guards to strictly check the inns, brothels and teahouses in Luoyang City, and severely interrogated every foreigner who stayed in the capital. If he felt suspicious, he immediately locked him up Put him in prison and interrogate him slowly.

Seeing that almost all the outsiders in the capital searched and found no useful clues, Zhang Chu went to the doctor in a hurry and had to further expand the scope of the investigation. Go back and put them in prison for further interrogation. As a result, many more people were arrested. Qilinwei's own prison soon became too full, so he had to borrow Henan Yin and Luoyang Ling's prisons to hold them. Qilinwei arrested them. staff.

The Qilin Guard made such an uproar in the city, which aroused the people in Luoyang City to discuss more, but compared to Qilin Guard's unreasonable, they were more concerned about the mastermind behind the assassination of Queen Qi Su Yao.

Many people have also heard something about Qi Wangfei Su Yao. They know that she was born in the Su family of a scholarly family. Beloved, I heard that even the emperor and queen praised her unceasingly, for a princess with such a good family background and character, they really couldn't figure out who would put her to death.

With more and more news about King Qi and Princess Qi in the capital, many people have speculated that the person the assassin wanted to kill was not Su Yao, but Princess Qi. Qi Wang Xiao Jie recently forced Zhou Jun to be killed, and the founder In the academy, every incident has offended many powerful people in Luoyang. There are not a few people who want his life. The assassination of Su Yao is a warning and revenge for King Qi. I hope that King Qi can restrain himself in the future and stop offending the powerful. As for the matter of profit, besides, with the power of the aristocratic family, it is not difficult to find a few assassins with high martial arts skills.

However, some people also put forward a refreshing conjecture, that is, they suspected that the assassination was instigated by the Tao family.The reason is also very simple. After all, King Qi only has Su Yao as the main concubine and Tao Han as the side concubine. Concubine Su's death, side concubine Tao and the Tao family behind her are the biggest beneficiaries, it's hard for people not to suspect this matter to them.Moreover, with the Tao family's wealth surpassing that of an enemy country, it is not difficult to send a few assassins with high martial arts skills.

As these rumors became more and more intense, and the words had their noses and eyes, and they were related to the reputation of the Tao family, even the patriarch Tao Lu couldn't sit still, and sent people to post a notice to announce the whole city, expressing that the Tao family was willing to offer a reward of [-] guan to catch the murderer.

The actions of the Tao family not only did not dispel the doubts of some people, but made the case even more confusing. Some people firmly believed that the Tao family did this, and offering a reward now is just a trick of calling out for a thief.

From this point of view, if the case is not investigated for a day, the Tao family will suffer from suspicion for a day...
