miscalculation

After Xiao Cheng left the palace, he went straight to the General's Mansion, thinking that that day Qin Xin had some criticisms about his status as a prince, and seemed unwilling to make friends, now that he is sheltered in his mansion, he must be unhappy.He was curious, but he didn't know who had the ability to injure him.I'm afraid things are far from that simple. Xiao Cheng knows that the general's mansion is not a place to stay for a long time. If someone finds out, it will damage Gu Qingmo's reputation.

Qin Xin fainted in the ruined temple that day, and when he woke up, he went to the General's Mansion. After hearing what happened, he knew that it was the token of Zhao Wang Mansion on his body that made passers-by send him to Zhao Wang Mansion.Only because King Zhao was imprisoned and it was inconvenient for the mansion, he was sent to the general's mansion again.Qin Xin knew that his whole body was injured, if he left rashly, he was afraid of losing his life, so he stayed to recuperate.He thought about leaving after he recovered from his injury.

Gu Zhao was not in the mansion, and because Gu Jinghua of King Zhao's mansion had given him good hospitality, Qin Xin was quite proud.He heard that Miss Gu lived in the backyard of the mansion, so he didn't dare to go there.Every day he would sit in the garden gazebo in a daze, thinking of all the things he had with Shen Lingjiao in the past, he felt extremely sad.Suddenly he heard the sound of a zither, with a deep sense of resentment, and he waved his sword to complement it with sympathy.

Xiao Cheng walked into the garden, seeing such a scene, he didn't want to interrupt, so he asked everyone to retreat.As soon as Qin Xin turned around, he saw him coming, but he still didn't know what to do, he just danced with his sword.Unexpectedly, the sound of the piano stopped suddenly, so Qin Xin had to stop.

Qin Xin looked at Xiao Cheng, but he was not polite, and said: "King Zhao, thank you for your kindness and virtue."

After he finished speaking, he put the sword around Xiao Cheng's neck, and asked sharply: "Tell me, did you trap me for several days and deliberately let me out on the day they came back, so that I could be your executioner? "

It turned out that after he assassinated Xiao Qian that day, he realized that the people who trapped him must have calculated everything correctly, so the patrols in the capital did not notice their fight.And after he was injured, he was rescued to King Zhao's mansion. Such a coincidence, I'm afraid it was a game played by King Zhao to win him over.

After hearing what he said, Xiao Cheng didn't care much, and said: "If this king uses you, why would he send someone to rescue you here? It's time to kill people to silence you, right?"

Qin Dao said: "Looking at the court, only you and the king of Qi are at odds, and the king of Yue is friendly with him. You have the most motivation to kill him. What's more, you can transfer the officers and soldiers, and only you can do this. In addition, after I save you , you often send people to check on my news. You must have found out the matter between me and Miss Shen's. I failed to assassinate Xiao Qian, but I hurt Lingjiao's life. The Shen family will definitely not help Xiao Qian again, isn't it? Is it also beneficial to you? You see that my martial arts are strong, so you must keep it for your own use, right?"

"Hahahaha..." Xiao Cheng laughed loudly, "I didn't know that you were the one who assassinated the King of Yue, but I didn't expect that you would call it yourself."

"When death is imminent, you dare to be arrogant." Qin Xin said angrily.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a murderous look behind him, he quickly turned around to block it, for a moment, the sword was snatched by Xiao Cheng, but the opponent was holding a green blade across his neck.

Qin Xin was very surprised, he never expected that the one who could defeat him in one move was actually a woman.Gu Qingmo didn't look at him, but said: "You were rescued by a masked man, do you know what kind of sword technique he used?"

Qin Xin replied: "I don't know, it's just quite similar to mine."

"Hmph, you dare to show off this little bit of swordsmanship."

After Gu Qingmo finished speaking, he turned and left without saluting to Xiao Cheng who was beside him.Xiao Cheng handed the sword to Qin Xin, and said: "Young Master Qin, I really don't know who is trapping you, but what you said is strange. Since you doubt me, there is nothing I can do. Now I let you go , I hope you stay away from the capital and don’t come back.”

"King Zhao's kindness, Qin Xin is grateful, but the masked man I met before has a lot to do with the person I am looking for, I must ask him to understand. Even if the crowd is vast, I will never give up."

"En? Tell me the details of how you were rescued by a masked man when you were assassinated that day."

Qin Xin recounted the events of that night in detail, and Xiao Cheng hurriedly asked after hearing half of it: "You said that the masked man hurt his ribs?"

Qin Dao said, "Really."

"Is he about the same height as you, and his figure is also similar to yours?"

"How did the prince know?" Seeing that Xiao Cheng was not the one who designed him, Qin Xin was a little more polite.

Xiao Cheng said: "The king met a guard in the palace today, and he also hurt his ribs, but it shouldn't be such a coincidence." He recalled Yun Zhao who met in Xiao Liang's palace, he was also injured in his ribs, But logically, the people in his palace shouldn't come out to rescue Qin Xin.Was Yun Zhao's move ordered by Xiao Liang, or did he do it himself?

"Your Majesty's words are serious? I don't know who it is?"

"He is Yun Zhao, King Qin's bodyguard."

"King Qin?" Qin Xin became more and more confused after hearing this.

"I'll investigate this matter later. You can rest assured to heal your wounds. If you are willing to stay, I will arrange for you to go to another place. You will definitely not stay in the General's Mansion. If you want to leave, how can I find you if I find news?"

"Of course I have to leave. I come to check on the news on the fifteenth of every month."

"Alright then, you go."

"One more thing, that Miss Gu's martial arts skills are extraordinary, who did she learn from?"

After Qin Xin asked, he suddenly heard a sneer from someone in the backyard: "This girl's inheritance has nothing to do with you."

Seeing him, Xiao Cheng said: "Second sister's martial arts was passed down by a wandering Taoist nun, but that Taoist nun has not been seen for many years. Second sister has a lot of research on swordsmanship, so she became interested in the person who saved you. You don't need to worry too much .”

"Farewell."

After saying that, Qin Xin quietly left the general's mansion, because he lost to Gu Qingmo, he didn't dare to show off his lightness, and just left secretly from behind.

Seeing that he was gone, Xiao Cheng called someone over and ordered: "Come here, leave to find out Yunzhao's identity, how he entered the palace, how he became an attendant of the emperor's father, and how he became the guard of King Qin, all have to be checked by this king." Be clear."

Qin Xin left the General's Mansion, knowing that there were murderous opportunities everywhere outside, so he wanted to go to Yue Wang's Mansion.He wanted to see Xiao Cheng, what kind of person would make Shen Lingjiao willingly entrust the dowry hairpin to him.The hairpin was so important, Shen Lingjiao was able to hand it over before he died, which showed great trust.Thinking that they were only newly married for three days, he couldn't understand why Shen Lingjiao trusted her so much.

Xiao Qian was sitting under the gazebo in the yard feeding the fish, the weather was cold at this time, standing by the fish pond alone seemed to be fearless of the wind and cold.Qin Xin knew that he was seriously injured that day, and he must have been more than half healed after these days, but such a cold wind is not a joke.

Xiao Qian stood for a while, then turned his head and reached out to stroke the bamboo beside him.In the cold winter season, most of the bamboos planted in the yard withered, yellowed and withered, and lost their vitality.He suddenly said softly: "I only hope that you are not as good as a bamboo in the cold winter."

Qin Xin thought he was worried about his body, so he couldn't help snorting, jumped into the courtyard, and said: "People who are greedy for life and afraid of death, since they cherish life so much, why stand in the cold wind for a long time?"

Seeing that it was him, Xiao Qian asked, "Is it you? Do you want to assassinate me again?"

"Why not?"

Qin Xin raised his sword and stabbed, but Xiao Qian didn't stop him, he just said: "This king still has something to do, after finishing this matter, you can kill again."

Xiao Qian had no timidity, and looked straight at Qin Xin, without a trace of emotion in his eyes, as if death was at home.Qin Xinxin had already believed five points, but said in his mouth: "How do I know that you are not planning to delay the attack?"

"It's up to you whether you believe it or not, but seeing that you are breathing heavily, you must have been seriously injured. Although I am injured, I am confident that I will not lose you too much right now."

Qin Xin wanted to say more, but he was injured by Gu Qingmo's sword qi just now, and he ran over to the palace with lightness kung fu, the injury had already been affected, and he couldn't stand up right now.Seeing Xiao Qian, he quickly helped him up, turned around and left.

"You let me go!"

"Keep your voice down, there is nothing you can do to attract the guards of the king. Since you are injured, you might as well hide in my palace to recuperate. No one will dare to disturb you."

There are countless people searching for him in the capital, and no one would have thought that King Yue would hide his own assassin.Qin Xin never expected him to say this, so he asked, "You really want to save me?"

"Yes. You are her true love. She died to save me. How can I refuse to save her?"

"She's your wife, and I let you get seriously injured, shouldn't you hate me?"

"We'll talk about these things later."

As Xiao Qian said, he had already helped him up to the south attic.When Qin Xin saw Shen Lingjiao's spirit seat, he couldn't help being excited and fainted immediately.

From that day on, the King of Yue often went to the South Pavilion, and everyone only said that he missed the princess, and they didn't dare to disturb him.When the news reached Xiao Jue, he was very sad. He wanted to ask for clarification, but was blocked by Concubine Shu.

I recently watched the web drama "Assassin's Biography", and I was very fascinated. I wanted to write a fan, but I wanted to update it here, so I was a little hesitant to write at the same time, but I was afraid that I would not be able to write both sides.
