Help! I just woke up and was stabbed by a big kid

"So, you want to kill me?" Qin Zhaoyue said coldly. He knew very well that his plan had been seen through and everything was beyond redemption, but he still struggled desperately.

"Do you know where this is? This is the Eastern Palace. Not only the Donglin Guards, but also the palace guards are patrolling day and night. I don't believe that with your ability, you can escape from the palace unscathed after killing the prince... Jing Sang will definitely come to look for me when he sees that I don't come back all night." Qin Zhaoyue continued.

He sighed softly, still trying to persuade her: "Xiao Xu, since we have talked it out today, I am willing to give you a chance. If you stop now, I will not pursue what happened tonight."

Gu Xu said nothing, but slowly raised the sword in his hand.

The whistling arrow in Qin Zhaoyue's sleeve had already slipped into his palm.

This is a method of communication that only people in the royal family know. Once the arrow is fired, the palace guards will arrive here immediately. By then, Gu Xu will not be able to escape!

Qin Zhaoyue suddenly felt a piercing pain in his hand.

He couldn't help but let go, and the quiver of the whistling arrow was cut open, and the gunpowder inside leaked all over the ground.

Turning around, a sword flashed with an eerie light, and the tip of the sword stabbed straight into his abdomen.

Qin Zhaoyue's eyes were bloodshot.

Lu Tianyun was not at all slow and dull like a person who had lost his memory. His movements were so agile that Qin Zhaoyue could not even see his moves; the dagger he swung out only scratched his shoulder because of the man's reckless sword strike.

When Xiao Xuzi saw Qin Zhaoyue being shot by an arrow, he screamed in horror: "Your Highness——!"

He rushed forward, trying to stop "Lu Tianyun", but "Lu Tianyun" swung his sword back, and a line of blood ran across Xiao Xuzi's throat. He swiftly avoided Qin Zhaoyue's counterattack, and returned to Wuhuo's back with a few leaps. His scarred face only revealed a cold and unfamiliar look.

Xiao Xuzi's body limply fell down.

Qin Zhaoyue opened his eyes wide and spat out a mouthful of blood.

He couldn't walk, and the wound across his waist and abdomen made the blood flow out uncontrollably. He was the prince, and in his smooth life, how could he have suffered such a serious injury?

"I've been waiting for you to use this move." Gu Xu raised his sword and walked forward slowly, glancing at the remains of the whistling arrow. "You are about to die, and you are still thinking about cheating."

"Qin Zhaoyue." Gu Xu raised his sword, "Is there a single word of truth in your mouth?"

With one strike of the sword, Qin Zhaoyue's cheek was torn open, leaving a very long wound. He fell to the ground, looked at Gu Xu with wide eyes, and raised the dagger——

Gu Xu swung his sword again, and the dagger was knocked out and fell into the bushes on the side.

"Why... do you know this!" Qin Zhaoyue stared at Gu Xu's eyes. He didn't even have a chance to die!

"Why?" Gu Xu smiled without any sadness or joy, he knew him too well, they were very open with each other in their previous life, it seemed that they had nothing to hide, he even took out his life-saving things as "bargaining chips" in exchange for trust, how could he not know?

"Qin Zhaoyue. Maybe you should ask yourself." Gu Xu said.

"You can't be emperor."

His sword was about to fall.

From the side, a sharp dagger flew out of nowhere. Gu Xu's eyes turned cold and he raised his sword to shoot it down. At the same time, a black shadow pounced down and pulled Qin Zhaoyue, who was unable to get up, onto his back.

"Your Highness! Let's go!" The man had a bloody saber in his hand. He pulled Qin Zhaoyue away from the range of Gu Xu's sword tip. Even though he was pulling an adult man, he didn't seem to be too strenuous.

The Wumen secret guards outside had already pounced on them.

This man's swordsmanship was as swift as a tiger, and he did not lose out even when surrounded by many people. Soon, he carried the almost unconscious Qin Zhaoyue with one hand, jumped from the rockery in the courtyard to the top of the wall, and then disappeared.

Gu Xu threw the sword dripping with blood on the ground.

"It is indeed so." Wu Huo said, "Master, you have even anticipated this step?"

"Follow them." Gu Xu said, "With Qin Zhaoyue's ability, he won't put all his chips on the table."

"It's just that person..."

"I thought it would be Yu Hu." Gu Xu lowered his eyelashes, "What a pity."

He thought for a moment and suddenly laughed sarcastically.

"No... Qin Zhaoyue will only die because of his own suspicion."

……

Qin Zhaoyue was half asleep and half awake, and only felt the sound of wind around him.

He forced his eyes open and found himself on a horse, which was galloping wildly on the road, surrounded by darkness. The faint sound of horse hooves behind him was getting farther and farther away. Qin Zhaoyue raised his head with difficulty and saw the man's face clearly.

"Lu Tianyun..." He opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

Chen Song, also known as Lu Tianyun, grinned at him.

"Your Highness, please forgive me. It took me too much time to find a way to escape. Otherwise, I wouldn't have let that impostor hurt you today." Lu Tianyun said, "Your Highness, please be patient! I have a base outside the city. Once you get there, you will be safe."

Qin Zhaoyue's eyes were red.

He tightly grasped the hem of Lu Tianyun's clothes, and the severe pain on his face seemed less obvious. He saw some vertical and horizontal scars on Lu Tianyun's body, and blood was slowly seeping out from his clothes.

"Tianyun, you..."

Qin Zhaoyue finally understood that Jingcun's discovery was not groundless, but a real person was swapped. It was just that someone misled him into thinking that the person who was swapped was Yu Hu, not Lu Tianyun.

It was because he had Yu Hu under house arrest that Gu Xuru was able to have his own way tonight.

After all, Jingcun was not a member of the palace, and it was far from the time for him to be responsible for the arrangements of the Donglin Guard. In Qin Zhaoyue's plan, that was to happen after he ascended the throne.

Now, even Jingcun can't be trusted.

Qin Zhaoyue thought gloomily.

It was not a sudden idea to put Yu Hu under house arrest. He still remembered that it was Jingcun's flash of inspiration that made him suspicious of Yu Hu.

The Jing family... maybe there are also traitors in the Donglin Guard, or maybe those princes have some kind of cooperation with Gu Xu.

Otherwise, Qin Zhaoyue couldn't figure out how Gu Xu knew about the shift arrangement of Donglin Guards, how he could capture and kill Wu Sheng, and even know the secret of the flare arrow!

Lu Tianyun coughed a few times and looked back.

"Your Highness, we seem to have gotten rid of those people." Lu Tianyun said.

Qin Zhaoyue did not answer. He looked at Lu Tianyun and suddenly felt something was wrong.

"What...exactly happened to you?" Qin Zhaoyue asked.

After being separated for many years, Lu Tianyun was replaced by someone, and then someone saved him at the critical moment. He couldn't believe that there was such a coincidence in the world.

Lu Tianyun was squinting his eyes to determine the direction. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Me? I never thought that I would have the chance to see His Highness again in this life. This is a long story. Let's go back to the base to treat your injuries first."

There were slight bloodshot in Qin Zhaoyue's eyes, and there was only panic in his eyes.

In this vast world, who can be trusted?

Jingcun...Yu Hu...Gu Xu...Can Lu Tianyun in front of him be fully trusted? Everything seems to be set up for him, and there are dangers everywhere.

Qin Zhaoyue didn't know.
