In Fulai's small eyes that were cowering like a mouse, suddenly there was a fierce predator's fierce light, which made her shudder, and the wound on her shoulder hurt a little.

"Killing me... what good... is it for you?" She held back the burning pain, tightly covered the bleeding wound with her palms, and squeezed out a few words through her teeth.

Fulai opened his mouth: "It's not that I want to kill you, someone has ordered your life."

"Just for that insignificant gold?" A Sheng also grinned on his lips, sneering mockingly, "What a cheap bone, committing a serious crime of murder for a small bounty, is it worth it?"

"I will give you a hundred taels of gold to ensure that you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life. I will do what I say. If you break your promise, you will be destroyed." Seeing that Fulai did not say a word, she boldly continued.

Fulai remained silent, looked at her silently, and spoke after a while: "The slave's family members are all in that person's hands, not for this reward. Madam, don't resent the slave, because the slave does things out of necessity, if you go to the underworld If you want to kill yourself, you just need to find..."

Just as he was about to say the person's name, someone nearby suddenly said:

"It's so late, who is making noise in Changle Palace?"

Through the bushes, the strong female voice of the night nurse suddenly sounded, breaking the dullness and gloom of the dead silence, but it seemed like a ray of light shone into A Sheng's heart.

Her head flicked suddenly, "Help, there are assassins in the palace!"

Raising her voice vigorously and screaming, the injury on her shoulder immediately affected her whole body, causing her to grin her teeth and gasp in pain.

Sure enough, this high-pitched shout with all his strength attracted the attention of the night nurse, and Ah Sheng took this opportunity to run away, without looking back while continuing to shout, "There is an assassin——"

The blood dripped down the road, and the hidden guards followed quickly, chasing after him.

She pressed the blood hole on her shoulder as she fled, trying not to let the blood flow out indiscriminately, so as not to provide clues to the pursuers.

He ran forward desperately, no matter what was deep inside the palace wall, the numerous phoenixes and dragon palaces kept passing by his side.

She had already hid in the remote willow path, but the pursuers behind her still followed closely behind, pushing through the jungle, and the dull footsteps stepped on the crazily beating heart, as if they could easily find her position.

She didn't know where she fled to now, she turned around and seemed to have entered the forbidden area of ​​the palace.

Looking up, under the darkness of night, there are magnificent palaces with black shadows on the cornices and corners, like beasts dormant and ready to move under the dim moonlight. Inside each locked palace door, there seems to be something waiting for the opportunity to move. Shocking secret.

"Quick, catch her!"

Not far from the rear, there was a deliberately lowered urging order.

The willow branches on the path made rustling sounds in an instant, and after the luxuriant flower stems and grass leaves were roughly broken by footsteps, there was a sudden burst of juice spurting.

A Sheng restrained the instinct of trembling body due to nervousness, bit his lips, pricked up his ears to hold his breath, and froze his body, not daring to make a sound.

Looking around, it seems that a terrace on the east side has not been locked, the rich door is ajar, and the cool breeze is faintly blowing out from inside.

The savior was right in front of her eyes, and she couldn't wait to rush in with light steps, carefully pushed open the door of the palace, and quickly got in, not daring to make any noise to disturb the people outside.

The hall was very dark, and the dim night light slipped in through the crack of the door, illuminating the thick dust in the corners.

I can't see where it is here, but I can roughly identify some tables and mattresses beside me, and golden bowls and jade cups in twos and threes, neatly placed on the ground, and the crystal clear and moist luster flows clearly in the waves of the eyes. It turns out that they are all valuable treasures.

But she didn't have the heart to carefully identify the surrounding environment, and she didn't dare to relax her ears at all, listening vigilantly for any clues outside.

The pursuers and hidden guards seemed to be still concentrating on finding their traces, the sound of footsteps passed by like the wind outside the door, and suddenly stopped.

Her heartbeat stopped suddenly, she panicked and burrowed under the table next to her, lying on the ground, tremblingly peeping at the movement above her head.

Why is Bian Sheng so miserable? She seems to be either escaping or on the way of escaping in her life. She has never escaped being hunted down.

She complained secretly in her heart, but right now she could only take one step at a time and resign herself to fate.

The hidden guards outside quickly opened the door, and black shadows shuttled back and forth between the halls, holding torches and searching around separately.

Ah Sheng couldn't see their movements very clearly, but he could vaguely recognize that they were rummaging up and down carefully, and even lifted up the blankets on the ground. The gesture of never giving up.

A Sheng couldn't help crying, cold sweat poured out from his palms, his whole body tensed up nervously, and his heartbeat missed an unknown number of beats.

It seems that time has stood still.

But he didn't even dare to breathe out.

At this time, the wind suddenly blew in from the unclosed window, and the chill suddenly invaded the whole body. A Sheng couldn't help shaking his body, subconsciously wanting to sneeze.

Fortunately, she slammed the tiger's mouth in time to hold back, but in this silence, even a slight sound can be amplified into a loud noise, and the unnatural panting in her nose has reached everyone's ears.

"Here she is!"

A dark guard keenly caught her breathing, immediately scanned the surroundings, and ordered: "Grab her!"

It’s over.

It's all over.

A Sheng closed his eyes in despair, grabbing the table legs in vain to find a straw.

She could even smell the ruthless aura on the man's body, her heart tightened instantly, and her blood stagnated.

In this darkness, whispers suddenly sounded from the hall.

Although it is extremely small, it is enough for people to hear it clearly, echoing and fluttering in the wind.

It turned out that it was the strong wind just now, which slightly opened a small door in the inner room, and the flickering candles mixed with the faint sound came out of the door, which immediately changed the faces of the hidden guards.

They all extinguished their torches and retreated quietly at the same time, as if they had given up on chasing her.

Asheng couldn't help being dumbfounded.

Cold sweat had already soaked his whole body, the blood on his shoulders stuck together with the salty sweat, the thicker smell of blood kept getting into his nose, and his head became more dizzy.

Stop chasing now?

Could it be that the characters in the palace were enough to make them fearful, they didn't even search her any more, they were willing to give up the prey that couldn't escape, and just ran away like this?

Suspicion suddenly arose, she couldn't help but crawled out from under the table, boldly looking out.

Tiptoing towards the small door in the inner room, she only glanced inside and was momentarily stunned.

Inside are rows of solemn memorial tablets, each engraved with a name and taboo carved with gold seals, exuding a gloomy atmosphere.

"The Spiritual Tablet of Emperor Guangwu, Emperor Guangwu of the Han Dynasty", she just glanced over it briefly, and immediately knew where it was.

This is obviously the ancestral temple of the Han family.

Looking down, a man wearing a crown was prostrating on the ground and muttering something. He was probably too focused to be aware of all the movements outside, and he didn't even notice Ah Sheng who was standing at the door.

It's Liu Xie.

He knelt in front of the shrine alone, and the incense curled slowly from above his head, enveloping his body quietly.

The body in the dragon robe was pressed tightly on the ground, so that she couldn't see his face, and even half of his expression couldn't be seen clearly.

The air was heavy, and her sensitive ears suddenly heard the movement outside the hall.

There was a very slight sound of footsteps on the roof, and the tiles were tilted, making a soft rushing sound, like raindrops hitting the top of her head, but it made her break out in cold sweat again.

The trembling sound of the wind hitting the window lattice is like a thunderbolt, which makes people tremble with fear, and the grass and trees are like soldiers.

They were still watching the palace, they didn't move half a foot away, and even spread out a tight siege, as soon as they showed themselves outside the palace, they would rush to catch her like a hungry tiger.

Now that things have happened, she can only hide here, and she can hide for a while. I just hope that Liu Xie can go out later so as to delay her time.

She quietly lifted the cloth head of the altar table beside her, got in to hide, said an offense secretly, and peeped at Liu Xie's movements through the gap.

"The ancestors are above, not worthy of the descendants Liu Xie, ashamed of the great man, ashamed of the spirit of the ancestors and ancestors in heaven."

Although his voice was small, it revealed strong mourning, and the tone of his voice was filled with unresolved guilt. A Sheng couldn't help but listen carefully.

"Xie is incompetent, although he is dedicated to revitalizing the Han Dynasty, he can only let the Cao thief bully the king and cover the sky with one hand.

Xieshi Shanwu has no power to hate, watching the treasure seal change hands and nine tripods burnt out, wanting to chase after the ancestors, restore the great man, save the country and save the prosperity of the people, but there is nowhere to implement my grand plan because of the constraints of the powerful officials.

Today's treacherous officials are ambitious, and their ambitions are far more than that of Huo Guang back then. He wants to put Xie Xie to death, seize my great Han country, and destroy my ancestor's 400-year-old glorious foundation.

There is a banquet held today, the thief Cao is overbearing to be worshiped by the officials, and the loyal officials of the Han family are barred in front of Xie. Xie is very sad but can't protect himself. Poor Zhao Qing's red heart is turned into dust. Ninth Five-Year is also precarious and my life is controlled by others.

Xie dares to kneel here and beg the late emperor to bless our Han Dynasty, don't let him fall into the hands of treacherous ministers, bless Xie Fuzuo with the luck of the country, and hope that the late emperor will save Xie and the Han Dynasty! "

He knelt on the ground, sobbing, tears rolling down like broken beads, wetting the delicate embroidery on the dragon robe and soaking it all up.

The intermittent murmurs are like torn pieces of silk, or like a sailless boat drifting in the monstrous waves, lonely, aimless, at a loss but no one can steer him.

He is also a poor man.

A Sheng listened, and his heart couldn't help fluctuating like water ripples.

Everyone has a wish and is doing their own pursuit for it.

It's just that conflicts and confrontations are inevitable, and it is impossible to absolutely judge what is good and bad, right and wrong.

"This world is the biggest quagmire, we are all forced into it, and we can never escape from it."

But everyone is struggling, even if it is meaningless, and they cannot escape the fate and the world after all.

Thinking of this, in the next second, her body accidentally moved, her head hit the wooden board above her head, and there was a dull "bang".

"Who is it?" Liu Xie suddenly realized the existence of someone, turned around vigilantly, and shouted: "Come out!"
