The reborn sycophant

Deeply aware that what Wei Chuyan said was reasonable, Zhao Ji planned to change the route immediately to find Sun Yan, but at this time the gate of Lancheng was closed, and they could not leave, so they could only rest patiently for the night.

It was on this night that the assassin arrived quietly.

The ripples on the surface of the lake start from the stones, and once they fluctuate, they spread far away, waking up the fish everywhere.That night, the first assassin who touched Zhao Ji's room was such a pebble. He hung it outside the window, took out an iron piece and unlocked it from the outside to the inside. After grinding it twice, the guards on the roof took him away. Knock down.

Just like the surface of a lake where stones have been thrown, all the fish woke up and sensed some kind of danger. They swam towards the middle with all their strength to protect their king.

The hustle and bustle started from the fall of a person and a few warning whistles.

All the guards woke up, they raised their knives, they ran, they met people with knives and sticks on the road... There were noisy sounds from this everywhere.In the chaos, led by Gao Muen, the guards knocked on the door of Zhao Ji's room. Hearing the movement in the room, Zhao Ji and Wei Chuyan had already put on their robes. During the fight, they were escorted by several people to a safer place.

The local soldiers in the posthouse were also alarmed, and immediately ran up to protect them, but Gao Muen and others were worried that there would be assassins among them, so they didn't let them approach, but sent them to fight the assassins.

"Let's just guard here, master, you go inside."

At the corner of the first floor of the post house, Zhao Ji was guarded inside, and Wei Chuyan was also in the inner circle because she had been pulling her all the time.

"There were about fifteen or six assassins. We killed three and wounded a few, but the survivors rushed in desperately. They were in the dark, and we were in the open. We can't be sure whether the opponent has archers in ambush outside. I can only wrong the master to hide behind us." Gao Muen stood in front of Zhao Ji, looked around vigilantly, and glanced at the two walls behind Zhao Ji, he thought for a moment, and transferred the three of them behind Zhao Ji : "The wall is a little thin. If the opponent has a heavy crossbow, it may pass through the wall. Master, be careful."

Following his arrangement, those people walked behind Zhao Ji silently and firmly. They all knew what it meant to them once a heavy crossbow pierced through the wall, but no one flinched, and they were even a little proud.

Zhao Ji's people guarded Zhao Ji, and next to Wei Chuyan, Zhou Lu and Hua Xiaochao were also guarding closely. The scene was chaotic and calm. Wei Chuyan gestured to them, asking them to guard Zhao Ji .

For a moment, the eyes of the two servants showed unwillingness. They were Wei Chuyan's guards, and they only cared about their master's safety, so they didn't want to move, but Wei Chuyan's eyes were very serious, and they could not refuse. As a way, Zhou Lu went to Zhao Ji's side, but Hua Xiaochao refused to move no matter what.

"There are so many people protecting her, master... I have to protect you anyway."

While scanning the battle circle, Hua Xiaochao muttered.

Wei Chuyan glanced at Zhao Ji's strict guards, and felt a little relieved.

Having fought against Zhou Lu before, Gao Muen was relieved to see Zhou Lu's strength when he also walked to Zhao Ji's side to guard him, and raised his favor towards Wei Chuyan.

As for whether Wei Chu's banquet will be injured due to unguarded, he doesn't care about that.

These people all live for the little master. If the master has something to do, they have failed the imperial concubine, and they will not be able to atone for their sins even if they die.

This is the first time for Zhao Ji to encounter someone assassinate her. At first, she was in chaos, but now she has calmed down a little. Seeing Wei Chuyan's guards came to look at her, she gave Wei Chuyan a glare, and pushed Zhou Lu back. : "You guard your master."

Pushing the person away, her eyes fell on her several guards again. Gao Muen felt dizzy and stopped immediately: "Master, absolutely not, they are coming for the master, how can Miss Wei have a master?" Danger!"

The first banquet also shook his head: "Let Zhou Lu look at you, I am relieved, master, the first banquet will be fine, look at those assassins, they must have seen your portrait, now as long as they look at us, they will be gone." It fell on you."

Zhao Ji stared at the room, stopped talking, and his fingers trembled slightly.

Black clothes, white knives, bright red rain of blood.

Judging from the pheromones, the grade of these assassins is not low, and they should have received extremely cruel training. Their martial arts are superb, and they are not much inferior to the carefully trained dark guards of the royal family.They killed people very neatly, with their heads rolling off and their arms flying. The blood of the guards was mixed with their own blood. No matter how much they were sprayed, their expressions were still very cold. Several people were stabbed by Zhao Ji's hidden guards in the melee. Hurt, but they're still fighting, not even a look of pain on their faces.

It seems that as long as he doesn't die, he will keep waving the knife in his hand.

It was the first time for Zhao Ji to see such brave people who were not afraid of death, and these people were her enemies, and... it was the first time for her to see so many people dying in front of them full of blood.

Unlike dying of starvation and thirst, the death of these people is a little more impactful.

Because the bright red of flesh and blood is the thing that can catch people's eyes the most.

Zhao Ji's fingers trembled even more.Wei Chuyan was wary of an assassin breaking through the encirclement. Seeing her like this, he reached out and grabbed her hand. Wei Chuyan's hand was a little cold, but holding Zhao Ji like this made Zhao Ji calm down strangely. .

"If I could, I would cover your eyes."

Puffs of blood flowers bloomed in the air, turned into mist and fell down, blood and pieces of meat flew together, tables and chairs were chopped down, sawdust fell on the ground, several corpses lay on the ground, the fighting was coming to an end—if this gang Assassins only have this number of words.

Wei Chuyan felt a little queasy, she was a pure civil servant, and what she saw the most in her previous life was her own blood.In fact, she was also afraid. In terms of human life, she was no different from Zhao Ji.

But Zhao Ji is also afraid, she knows that Zhao Ji is afraid, so she can't be afraid, she has to hold Zhao Ji's hand steadily, and tell Zhao Ji, don't be afraid, someone will protect her.

And don't be afraid to see people die.

"Close your eyes, you can't see but you can smell the blood, and you can hear their fighting."

Zhao Ji said tremblingly.

"At least it will be better."

After a moment of silence, Chu Yan squeezed her hand even harder.

At this moment, the last assassin was killed, and someone from here went to check outside the door for a while, and after confirming that there were no residues outside, they escorted Zhao Ji and the two back to another room to rest.

The post house is the boundary of the official family. The fierce fighting here attracted the attention of the government. After a while, several groups of soldiers came running with spears. The Lancheng county captain panicked and asked what happened here. After he learned that an assassin assassinated Chaozhong Xungui Afterwards, his legs shook violently, and his buttocks were on fire, mobilizing all the troops in the city overnight to search for the assassin's remnants.

He didn't know Zhao Ji's real identity, but since he could rest in the post house, how could he have no background?

If this matter spread to the court, and such a vile assassination incident happened under his rule, and so many people died, it would be difficult to save their heads, not to mention the official hat on their heads.

The danger has been checked, and now local officials are assisting in the search. The guards are all relieved, but only a few people can sleep this night. They guard Zhao Ji in shifts, not only vigilant against the assassins in the night, but also wary of the assassins who will come later. The soldiers who came to the post house to patrol back and forth.

It's still the original sentence, worrying about assassins getting in.

"It's a pity that no one was left alive. Otherwise, there may be a chance to ask the mastermind behind the scenes."

In Zhao Ji's room, no candles were lit, but there were several people guarding her in the dark.Thinking of those assassins before, Gao Muen felt a little regretful.

Zhou Lu sneered and said mockingly: "They are dead men at first glance, how can they easily leave you alive and trick you? But in my opinion, even if there is no life, who will your master recruit to assassinate? You also know it in your heart!"

He was still not angry about Qian Wei's first banquet asking him to protect Zhao Ji, so his expression was very indifferent.Beside him, Hua Xiaochao nodded in approval while wiping a sharp knife.

After following Wei Chuyan for a long time, some things cannot be kept secret. When Wei Chuyan decided to go to Chang'an, they had already learned the true identity of this "Miss Wanjia" who restricted the master everywhere. They were not surprised by the assassination, but felt that the other party was slow.

Although Gao Muen was an eunuch, he was also very capable. He was very proud of this, and only bowed his head in front of his master and young master. Facing Zhou Lu's cynicism, he also turned cold, thinking of those assassins, he suppressed his attack.

I don't know if those assassins are coming out in full force or still have spare power, they can't fight among themselves at this time.

Seeing that they were about to quarrel, Zhao Ji took a deep breath: "Indeed, there is no need to ask. They will assassinate me... Besides my brothers and sisters, who else?"

Her heart felt cold for a while. It had only been a long time since the prince's elder brother was deposed, and those people started to attack her. The assassins who came tonight are all the best of the best. They need to be cultivated for several years. They are really generous!

It turns out that there really is no such thing as staying out of the way.

"The waste prince is too busy to take care of himself at this time, I guess it shouldn't be him. Others... can't be seen at this time."

Sitting next to Zhao Ji, Wei Chuyan nodded in agreement. She knew the current highnesses Qianyang Jun. The second emperor seemed benevolent, but she was the most vicious. most likely.His Highness the Third Highness was so happy, he had a tall and handsome skin, but he didn't have any poems and books in his belly, just a simple bag. At this moment, he should still be immersed in the joy of the crown prince being deposed, and he would assassinate Zhao Ji without thinking about it.His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince is not much older than Zhao Ji, so he should not be in power yet, but his uncle is the current Taiwei, and the Taiwei is cruel and cruel, so it seems possible.

These analyzes flashed through his mind, and Wei Chuyan didn't say much.If she said so, how would she explain why she was so familiar with these Highnesses?

The author has something to say: the third update.Your body is already a useless body, rolling around begging for flowers.

There are so few comments, so sad.
