The queen's heart is unpredictable

Zhang Xiaohua stood timidly, she didn't know what to do, she could only look at Gao Ling blankly.

Gao Ling lowered his brows, and then let go of Zhang Xiaohua, with a dignified expression, he said resolutely, "I'll lure them away, you run back quickly! When you meet someone, say you got lost, don't say you've been here, see you again!" pass me, you know?"

"En." Zhang Xiaohua nodded, but then looked at Gao Ling with some worry, "You...will you go back safely?"

Seeing that Zhang Xiaohua cared about her, Gao Ling's expression softened a little, then he nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

At this moment there was no more time to say goodbye, Zhang Xiaohua thought that if both of them returned safely, there would be a chance to talk again.She didn't say any more, and waited for Gao Ling to rush out, after deliberately attracting everyone away, she followed Gao Ling's instructions and ran all the way towards the camp.

Without light work, Zhang Xiaohua ran slowly and was very tired.After finally getting near the camp, she saw the mess all over the place.

Many of the tents were torn apart, blood was sprinkled on them, and it was unknown who belonged to them.

Zhang Xiaohua felt uneasy, took two quick steps, and walked towards Duanmuyu's tent.

There was a circle of soldiers around the tent, and those people didn't know Zhang Xiaohua, so they blocked her outside.

Then a slightly sharp voice appeared behind the tent, "Which one is making trouble outside?"

Deng Li came out, seeing that it was Zhang Xiaohua, he waved his hand to let the guards let him go.

Zhang Xiaohua breathed a sigh of relief, and followed Deng Li into the tent.

As soon as he entered, Zhang Xiaohua saw the Ling Lie woman who had met once in the Asahi Palace. She still had a long whip on her waist, her face was solemn, and she looked a little fierce.

Two steps further in, Zhang Xiaohua saw Duanmu Yu lying on the couch, seeing that her face was abnormally pale, Zhang Xiaohua rushed over in a panic.

And the moment Duanmu Yu saw Zhang Xiaohua, her slightly dull eyes lit up instantly.

After hugging Zhang Xiaohua who was rushing over, Duanmu Yu couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, and sighed, "Where did you go?"

"I... I was wandering around and lost my way in the woods. I finally came back and found that it was a mess outside." After Zhang Xiaohua explained, she couldn't wait to observe Duanmu Yu's body.

But Duanmu Yu didn't see anything unusual except for a change of clothes.

"You... are you okay?" Zhang Xiaohua was worried about Duanmu Yu's body.

Duanmuyu shook her head, smiled and stretched out her hand to pinch Zhang Xiaohua's hand easily, and after pulling her to her side, she raised her head to look at the two people beside her who lowered their heads and pretended not to exist.

"You two back off." Duanmu Yu paused, then looked at Zifu and said, "Later, you remember to go to Qi's house to confirm whether Qi Mingyue has gone back, and by the way, talk to that waste of Qi's family and ask him See you in Qingfeng Tower in three days."

Ziba frowned, "My lord, your injury—"

"Small injury, it's okay." Duanmu Yu waved his hand, but then coughed lightly.

Zhang Xiaohua was frightened watching from the sidelines, her eyes were almost red.

But then Duanmu Yu patted Zhang Xiaohua's hand reassuringly, and then continued to say to Zibat, "You can do it, if you change the schedule, I will let Deng Li inform you."

Immediately, Zibat and Deng Li left together.In the huge tent, only Duanmu Yu and Zhang Xiaohua were left.

Zhang Xiaohua couldn't wait any longer, and asked, "Where did you get hurt? Is it serious?"

"It's okay." Duanmu Yu stretched out his hand, squeezed his sleeve and gently wiped Zhang Xiaohua's forehead, and said in a doting tone, "How long have you been running, and you have sweated so much?"

Zhang Xiaohua pursed her lips with some guilty conscience, and did not answer Duanmu Yu's question, but asked, "Where did you hurt?" After speaking, she stretched out her hand and prepared to pick Duanmu Yu's clothes.

In the next instant, Zhang Xiaohua's little hand was held by Duanmu Yu

, A burst of light laughter fell into the ears.

Zhang Xiaohua raised her head and saw Duanmu Yu smiling slyly, "I know you can't wait, but don't be so impatient..."

Zhang Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, and then she came to her senses, she withdrew her hand and patted Duanmu Yu.

"When is this? You're still joking." Zhang Xiaohua said angrily, "Show me quickly, where is the injury?"

"It's nothing, it's just a sword shot on the back, and it didn't hurt anything." Duanmu Yu smiled indifferently, then squeezed Zhang Xiaohua's palm, and said softly, "Don't look at me like that, I'm really fine. but……"

"But what?" Zhang Xiaohua was very nervous.

Duanmu Yu smiled, "But if you can sleep with me for a while, I think my injury will heal faster."

……

"You!" Zhang Xiaohua was angry and helpless at Duanmu Yu's words.

It's such a time, why is she still saying such shameless words!

But thinking about it carefully, it seems that I haven't seen Duanmu Yu like this for several days, but now I hear it, and I feel very familiar and at ease.

"Then lie down." After thinking for a long time, Zhang Xiaohua curled her lips, didn't say anything, just got up and spread out the mattress.

Duanmu Yu showed a satisfied smile on the side.

God knows how lonely she has been alone these days, day and night she wanted to get into that familiar bed, but in order not to confuse Zhang Xiaohua too much, she had to resist all urges.

It's really hard...

Lying on the bed, Duanmu Yu hugged Zhang Xiaohua tightly, and Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help laughing with the joyful look of finding it again.

"What are you laughing at?" Duanmu Yu couldn't help laughing himself.

Zhang Xiaohua put her arms around Duanmu Yu's waist and said, "Because I think your smile is so pretty..."

"You have such a sweet mouth, did you do something bad?"

The smile on Zhang Xiaohua's face froze, but then she buried her face in Duanmu Yu's chest, and whispered softly, "Praise you, you don't like to hear it, and I won't praise you again."

Duanmu Yu lost his mind for a moment, then smiled and hugged Zhang Xiaohua.As a result, Zhang Xiaohua struggled for a moment, and a muffled voice came from Duanmu Yu's chest——

"Duanmuyu, you want to suffocate me!"

This woman, her chest is like a sea!

Zhang Xiaohua almost drowned in it!

After finally waiting for Duanmu Yu to let go, Zhang Xiaohua raised her head and gulped for air, when suddenly there was the sound of armor colliding outside the tent.

Immediately, someone said in a deep voice, "My lord! My minister Li Maoran has something to report!"

Duanmuyu looked down, she patted Zhang Xiaohua, and Zhang Xiaohua got up knowingly.

After tidying up, Zhang Xiaohua invited Li Maoran in under the signal of Duanmuyu.

Li Maoran was tall and strong, standing next to Zhang Xiaohua was more than a head taller, Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly hid beside Duanmuyu.

Duanmu Yu leaned back on the chair, half closed his eyes, and waved his hands lazily.

Li Maoran respectfully reported, "All the assassins who broke into the camp have been killed. In addition, on the top of the cliff to the west, two people with strange behavior were also captured, but they committed suicide by taking poison during the escort."

"No one alive?" Duanmu Yu's expression was calm, no sadness or joy could be seen.

Li Maoran clasped his fists in salute, "This subordinate is incompetent and did not catch anyone alive! But...but just now at the bottom of the cliff, the guards who were searching for him encountered a suspicious person, but this person's martial arts skills... escaped... escaped .”

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help thinking, the person Li Maoran was talking about must be Gao Ling!

But it's okay, it's okay, Gao Ling ran away, that's fine.

At the same time, Duanmu Yu sneered abruptly, "Are you running away?" She looked at Li Maoran with gloomy eyes and a strong sense of oppression.

The next moment, Iron Armor

After shaking, Li Maoran knelt down, "Don't worry, your lord, if this person is hit by an arrow, I will definitely capture him as soon as possible!"

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua's heart tightened, if that person is really Gao Ling, then he...

Although Zhang Xiaohua's impression of Gao Ling was very ordinary, but today he was the one who helped her get out of trouble.Although the reason for this was also due to him, Zhang Xiaohua could also see that Gao Ling had some care for her. If he really died, Zhang Xiaohua would definitely feel guilty.

But at a time like this, a little carelessness would cause trouble.

Zhang Xiaohua suppressed her eagerness to move, and silently stood by Duanmu Yu's side without saying anything.

And when such a mess happened, the matter of Qiuhun was naturally put on hold, and all the generals were dispatched to search for the assassin and investigate the situation, after all, they were very busy.Even at night, there are still many torches swaying in the whole hunting ground, reflecting the whole hunting ground brightly.

Holding the medicine, Zhang Xiaohua was lamenting the first time she felt the aura of the royal family, when suddenly a pair of hands clasped Zhang Xiaohua's arm, and Zhang Xiaohua was so scared that she immediately sprinkled the medicine in her hand.

She frowned, turned her head to look, and it turned out——

It's Gaoling!

"You're fine!" Zhang Xiaohua immediately felt relieved.

But then Zhang Xiaohua noticed that Gao Ling's expression seemed wrong, she walked over nervously, but as soon as she got close to Gao Ling, Gao Ling's body shook and almost fell to the ground.

Zhang Xiaohua was shocked, and hurried up to help him, but only then did she realize that Gao Ling's face was not only pale, but even his lips had an inexplicable grayness.Zhang Xiaohua clenched Gao Ling's arm with some worry, "What's wrong with you!"

"Help me..." Gao Ling weakly pointed to the corner beside him.

That corner was between two tents backed by rocks, and it was very hidden.

Zhang Xiaohua thought that Gao Ling had a companion here and needed her help, so she walked over there with some hesitation, but saw a guard lying there, she suddenly looked at Gao Ling with some confusion.

Gao Ling walked slowly in front of Zhang Xiaohua, then took out a dagger and stuffed it into Zhang Xiaohua's hand.

"What, what are you doing?" Zhang Xiaohua took a step back, unwilling to accept it.But Gao Ling insisted on holding her hand and let her hold the dagger.

Zhang Xiaohua was even more confused, "What exactly do you want to do?"

"Kill him." Gao Ling's voice was very calm, there was no hint of a joke in it.

Zhang Xiaohua was shocked immediately, and threw back the dagger in her hand, "I...I won't kill people!"

"But if he doesn't die, I will die!" Gao Ling looked at Zhang Xiaohua with eyes full of pain, "Xiaohua, don't hesitate, once you cut him down, just...just..."

Before he finished speaking, Gao Ling shook his face pale, and Zhang Xiaohua hurriedly supported him again.

Gao Ling lost his strength, "Xiaohua, now Commander Li has led people to thoroughly investigate everyone in the camp. I have injuries on my body and I can't escape. I can only... that's the only way." He tremblingly squeezed Caught Zhang Xiaohua's hand, "Help me, help me one last time, okay?"

Seeing that Gao Ling was about to die, Zhang Xiaohua frowned, feeling compassionate.

It's not that she doesn't know that at this time, she should get rid of the relationship and protect herself.But now that Gao Ling has found her, she has already gotten involved.

At this moment, if she ran out and shouted for the officers and soldiers to come in and arrest Gao Ling, she might be able to properly solve the current trouble, but that would be a bit heartless, and Zhang Xiaohua couldn't do it.But is it too cruel to say that in order to save Gao Ling, another person's life must be sacrificed?

Zhang Xiaohua knew that she had a Virgin Mary attack, but she was just an ordinary person, and she couldn't be courageous in the face of life.At this moment, Zhang Xiaohua really admires Duanmu Yu and Gao Ling...

At this moment, the sound of a search came from outside the tent.Gao Ling grabbed Zhang Xiaohua and said, "There's no time! Don't hesitate, just stab him in the chest. I'll take care of the rest."

"Is there no other way? Must

dead? "

"Yes, there is no way! Now either he or I will die, you can only choose one." Gao Ling looked at Zhang Xiaohua dimly.

Zhang Xiaohua bit her lip, held the dagger with trembling hands, and tremblingly walked in front of the fainted guard.

But it is also a life, why, why should she make such a choice?

Zhang Xiaohua lowered her hand and said in pain, "No... no, I can't do it, I—"

Before Zhang Xiaohua finished speaking, Gao Ling came up suddenly, held her hand, and then thrust the dagger in her hand into the guard's chest.

Warm blood spurted out, splashing Zhang Xiaohua's face.

Zhang Xiaohua stared blankly at the dagger in her hand, her heart trembled slightly, but at this moment the guard lying there woke up leisurely, holding Zhang Xiaohua's hand with a painful expression on her face!

Zhang Xiaohua opened her mouth, wanting to scream, but no sound came out of her throat.

At the same time, Gao Ling held her hand and poked several holes in the guard's body.Blood flowed out, and the guard gradually lost his vitality after the initial struggle, and lay on the ground, not breathing at all.

dead, dead...

After Gao Ling let go of his hand, Zhang Xiaohua immediately took several steps back, and at this time Gao Ling reached out and stuffed the blood-stained dagger into Zhang Xiaohua's hand again, "Run! Run out and call someone over! "

Looking at the blood on her hands, Zhang Xiaohua tremblingly wanted to let go.But Gao Ling squeezed her hand tightly, and kept asking, "Just say you met an assassin, and the assassin stabbed me, and you just saved me." After speaking, Gao Ling patted Zhang Xiaohua's hand to show Comforting, "Hurry up and call someone here, or... I'm afraid... I'm afraid I won't be able to hold on."

After finishing speaking, Gao Ling closed his eyes and fell directly to the ground.

Only at this time did Zhang Xiaohua realize that there was another dagger stuck in Gao Ling's back...

The blood had already stained the clothes on his back. Judging by the amount of blood loss, if he delayed any longer, he might be killed again.

One is dead, but the other cannot die.

Zhang Xiaohua took a deep breath, suppressed her fear, and quickly ran out according to Gao Ling's instructions.

"Come here! Come... come here... assassin... assassin!" Zhang Xiaohua ran out in a panic. After meeting Li Maoran, she immediately pointed in the direction where Gao Ling was trembling.

Li Maoran's eyebrows sank, and he immediately ordered someone to go over and investigate thoroughly.

After Li Maoran found Gao Ling and the guard, he immediately took Zhang Xiaohua to report to Duanmu Yu.

Duanmu Yu was lying there taking a nap, waiting for Zhang Xiaohua to come back, but after waiting for Zhang Xiaohua, Li Maoran came instead.

Duanmu Yu was a little annoyed by this commander who failed to accomplish anything but failed, but he still summoned him.Unexpectedly, not only Li Maoran came in, but also Zhang Xiaohua who was covered in blood.

"What's the matter!" Duanmu Yu frowned immediately, but because of Li Maoran's existence, she immediately covered up the anxiety in her eyes, turned her head to look at Li Maoran,

Li Maoran reported in a deep voice, "Just now, my subordinates encountered this court lady covered in blood and kept calling for an assassin, so they sent someone to investigate, and then found a dead man pretending to be a bodyguard and Concubine Gao Jun who was seriously injured. "

"Concubine Gao Jun?" Duanmu Yu narrowed his eyes, then looked at Zhang Xiaohua.

Zhang Xiaohua was still in a state of shock, she stood there with a little absent-minded eyes, and did not notice Duanmu Yu's gaze at all.

Duan Muyu lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then waved his hand at Li Maoran, "Investigate the dead man carefully, and let someone rush to heal Concubine Gao Jun. Other matters, I will ask alone."

"Yes!"

After Li Maoran left, Duanmu Yu's eyes fell on Zhang Xiaohua again.

She could see that Zhang Xiaohua was very scared, so she suppressed her curiosity, walked slowly to Zhang Xiaohua's side, then took out a handkerchief, carefully and carefully

Wipe Zhang Xiaohua's blood-stained hands.

After wiping off the blood, Duanmu Yu gently squeezed Zhang Xiaohua's hand, and said softly, "It's okay, it's over."

Hearing Duanmu Yu's words, Zhang Xiaohua's slack eyes gradually focused.She stared blankly at Duanmu Yu, and said with a trembling voice, "He...he's dead."

Duanmu Yu nodded, and then rubbed Zhang Xiaohua's head very gently, "Leave him alone, go and change your clothes first." As she spoke, she slowly unbuttoned Zhang Xiaohua's coat.

After taking off her coat, Zhang Xiaohua suddenly grabbed Duanmu Yu's hand.

Duanmu Yu glanced at Zhang Xiaohua, Zhang Xiaohua trembled and said, "I...I want to take a bath first."

"Okay." Duanmu Yu nodded immediately.

But when Duanmu Yu was about to turn around and call for someone to prepare water, Zhang Xiaohua grabbed her arm.Looking at Zhang Xiaohua with a panicked face, Duanmuyu comforted him gently and lovingly, "Don't worry, I'll be right back."

Hearing this, Zhang Xiaohua reluctantly nodded, and then slowly withdrew her hand.

Not long after, the hot water was ready, and Zhang Xiaohua stripped herself naked without hesitation and jumped into the hot water.

She took the cloth head and kept wiping her hands, arms, face, neck...

She cleaned all the blood-stained places one by one.But it wasn't enough, it felt like it wasn't washed, it wasn't—

"Don't torture yourself like this." Duanmu Yu snatched the cloth from Zhang Xiaohua's hand, and said softly, "You've already washed it, it's very clean."

"No!" Zhang Xiaohua shook her head with red eyes, and said, "I can feel it, and there is still blood dripping on my face."

"That's water, little fool." Duanmu Yu touched Zhang Xiaohua's already flushed cheeks, "You've washed it very clean."

"Really, really?"

"Yeah." Duanmu Yu took the cloth with a light smile, wiped Zhang Xiaohua's shoulder lightly, and said, "No one can be cleaner than my Xiaohua."

Listening to Duanmuyu's reassurance, Zhang Xiaohua's body finally relaxed slowly, but then she shook her head with red eyes, "I'm not clean anymore, I killed someone."

"Killing just means that you have grown up." Duanmu Yu coaxed, "You are still my cleanest little flower, you know?"

Zhang Xiaohua pursed her lips and burst into tears.

Duanmu Yu immediately hugged her, wrapped her in his arms with his long arms, and comforted her, "It's okay, it's okay, everything is an accident."

"Do you think that person will turn into a ghost and ask for my life?" Zhang Xiaohua asked timidly.

Duanmu Yu chuckled, "If he really came, he would have to pass my level first. I'm the female Yan Luo with a great reputation. Which brat is going to hurt you in front of me?"

"Then what if...if you're not by my side, what should I do?"

"Fool, then don't leave my side." Duanmu Yu gently coaxed.

Zhang Xiaohua thought for a while, hugged Duanmu Yu's arm, and said Nuo Nuo, "Then you...then you really can't leave me."

"Don't worry, I won't leave you."

……

After taking a bath, Zhang Xiaohua told Duanmu Yu what Gao Ling had ordered just now.

She said that on the way back she happened to meet Gao Ling confronting the "assassin", Gao Ling was seriously injured, and Zhang Xiaohua killed the "assassin" to save Gao Ling.

After hearing everything, Duanmu Yu put Zhang Xiaohua on the bed, "Go to sleep for a while, I'll go and have a look, and I'll be right back."

Zhang Xiaohua pinched Duanmu Yu's sleeve, unwilling to let go.

Duanmu Yu smiled bitterly, "Don't worry, I'll be right back. You lie down for a while, and I promise to come back before you fall asleep, okay?"

Looking at Duanmu Yu, Zhang Xiaohua hesitated for a moment, and finally let go of her hand obediently.

Duanmuyu walked out, before going out, she suddenly stopped and smiled at Zhang Xiaohua

He smiled, "Stay obediently, I will ask Purple Bat to buy you candy tomorrow."

Zhang Xiaohua's eyes flickered for a moment, then she shrank under the quilt and nodded obediently.

After watching Duanmu Yu leave, Zhang Xiaohua was the only one left in the empty tent, she immediately shrank back in fear, until she leaned against the tent, she felt a little relieved.

But the scene of the man covered in blood just now suddenly appeared in her mind, Zhang Xiaohua sobbed and retreated into the quilt, her eyes couldn't help turning red.

From time-traveling to now, Zhang Xiaohua felt wronged for the first time.

She obviously only wanted to live a safe and stable life, but God wanted to oppose her and get her involved in these messy things.

What did she do wrong?God wants to treat her like this!

Angry and angry and regretful and afraid.

Zhang Xiaohua rolled up the quilt tightly, constantly looking forward to Duanmuyu's return soon.But perhaps because of taking a hot bath, Zhang Xiaohua was warm all over and wrapped in a quilt, and she felt sleepy after a while.

But because of the fear in her heart, she would wake up from time to time, and then fell asleep in a daze.

I don't know how long it took, Zhang Xiaohua felt as if her quilt was being pulled.She thought that the ghost was coming to kill her, so she woke up sobbing, and saw Duanmu Yu's beautiful face head-on.

Duanmu Yu reached out and touched Zhang Xiaohua's cheek, and said softly, "Go to sleep, I'm here, don't be afraid."

Zhang Xiaohua blinked, but woke up, "You...you are back."

"Yeah." Duanmu Yu nodded, "I went to see Gao Ling just now, and the imperial doctor said that the injury is a bit deep, so I need to take care of it."

"Then, what about the assassin?"

"Li Maoran checked the man's body. There was an arrow wound on the man, so he must be an assassin." Duanmu Yu moved his body, then hugged Zhang Xiaohua and said, "It is estimated that the man deliberately changed his body in order to escape after being injured." Putting on the clothes of the guards, I didn't expect such a thing to happen when I met Gao Ling on the way."

Seeing that Duanmu Yu had settled the matter by herself, Zhang Xiaohua naturally didn't say anything more, but silently curled up in Duanmu Yu's arms, and closed her eyes with peace of mind.

At this time, Duanmu Yu suddenly pressed Zhang Xiaohua's ear, and said softly, "Xiaohua, starting tomorrow, I will teach you how to kill people."
