Hualuo Chang'an

Chapter 085. The Assassin

Now Gongyi Ning didn't have to follow sneakily.

Ana Jing didn't seem to see her intention at all, instead she invited her to go with her.Gong Yining thought about it, this is just right, so she won't have to bother to hide.Anyway, Luo Changxi asked her to stare at Anajing just in case, not because he regarded Anajing as a hostile person, and it was more convenient to follow her and stare at her.

When the two of them left the palace gate, Gong Yining saw Yao Qianyu at a glance.Because Yao Qianyu was standing beside Luo Mingde smiling like a flower, and Luo Mingde was the most eye-catching place among the crowd, so he was naturally very conspicuous.

Gong Yining glanced at it from afar, then turned her head and asked Ana Jing, "How do you plan to lure her over?"

According to Gong Yining's thinking, if he wanted to find Yao Qianyu, he would have to show his face in front of Luo Mingde, and even get Luo Mingde's nod, so wouldn't it be suspicious?

But Anajing smiled and said, "It's easy."

With a wave of her hand, a maid who was also dressed in a foreign costume came over.

Anajing murmured to her a bunch of Xiling dialect that Gong Yining could not understand, and the maid quickly nodded and walked towards Yao Qianyu.Gongyi was curious, so she kept staring, but saw that the maid did not go directly to Yao Qianyu, but went to Yao Qianyu's maid, and the two whispered.Afterwards, the court lady walked through the crowd, went to Yao Qianyu's side and whispered a few words in her ear.When Gong Yining took a closer look, she saw that Yao Qianyu had smiled and said a few words to Luo Mingde, and then walked out of the crowd holding the maid's hand.

Gongyi Ning pondered for a while, and couldn't help asking: "What message did you pass?" But Anajing didn't answer directly, but smiled and said: "Gongyi girl is always smart, why don't you make a guess? "

"Did you grab her something and threatened her? Or..." Gong Yining guessed a few words, "You lied to her that something happened to the fourth princess?"

Anajing raised her eyebrows, noncommittal, only said: "We also have to go to the side hall as soon as possible."

"Don't you wait for Concubine Yao to go with you?"

"It would be wrong to wait for her to come with you. Let's go first."

After Anajing finished speaking, she took two steps back, walked down the long corridor in front of Minghui Hall, bypassed the entrance of the main hall, and walked towards the other side.Gong Yining was not familiar with the palace at all, seeing that Ana Jing was walking in a hurry, she was afraid of losing her way, so she hurriedly chased after her.

As she walked, Gong Yining felt that something was wrong.It's just going from the main hall to the side hall, why is it getting farther and farther?And the scene in front of him was not as lively and noisy as before, and it gradually seemed to turn into some secluded place.Although there are bright palace lanterns along the way, only black trees can be seen beside the corridor, and the surroundings are so quiet that even the sound of the Minghui Hall could not be heard clearly.

At this moment, there was a sudden bang——

An extremely gorgeous firework bloomed in midair.

Gong Yining looked up and felt that the place where the fireworks were set off was far away from where she was at the moment.Gongyi Ning was even more puzzled, finally stopped, and said bluntly: "Where did you bring me? Where are we going now?"

"Naturally, go to the side hall."

Anajing's expression was indifferent, there was not even a trace of strangeness on her face.

"Piandian?" Gong Yining said again, "You deceive me that I don't recognize the road in the palace? Even if I don't recognize the road, I can tell the difference between right and wrong. If you really go to the side hall, why do you make such a big detour? "

"You're absolutely right." Anajing smiled, "It's just that we have to make a detour first, so as not to be suspicious."

"You really think I'm a fool?"

Gong Yining stopped talking nonsense with her, she spoke quickly, but her body moved even faster.As soon as the words fell, she was like a dexterous rabbit, starting from the corridor and leaping out.She had already spotted a rockery piled up with rocks, took a few wrong steps, and hid herself behind it in a flash.It took only a few blinks of an eye to jump and dodge, and Gong Yining was confident that no one in this world could react to it.

Ana Jing...

Of course not.

"Gongyi girl—"

Gongyi crouched behind the rockery, only showing one eye to see, thinking in her heart that as soon as Anajing leaves, she will follow secretly.Although the situation just now was different from what was planned before, it was not too late for her to notice it in time.

Anajing yelled, but seeing no one answered, she was not in a hurry to leave.

"Gong Yi Ning."

Anajing actually shouted again.

It's just that Gong Yining didn't understand, could she come out just by calling her name?

"...I heard that you have excellent lightness kung fu, and it's really amazing to see you today." Ana Jing still had that half smile, "But it's a pity, you and Luo Changxi have long missed the opportunity."

What?Gong Yining was even more confused, what "lost the opportunity"?

However, Anajing didn't say much anymore, but she jumped and flew away from the way they had just come.Gongyi Ning didn't wait too long, she used her special kung fu to follow her as lightly as a swallow.

Anajing's lightness kung fu is actually quite good.

However, it is still a little worse than Gongyi Ning.

After a few ups and downs, Gong Yining had firmly grasped Anajing's direction, and he breathed a sigh of relief.But the strangest thing was that Anajing in front did not return to Minghui Hall, but flew towards another path that was more remote.Gong Yining didn't dare to hesitate, so she could only keep raising her breath to keep up.I saw that even the palace lanterns in front of me gradually disappeared, and there were dead branches and weeds everywhere, and I didn't know where they were.Gong Yining was puzzled, and then looked at Ana Jing in front of her, only to see her flashing behind the strange rock beside her.Gong Yining quickly flew up, but fortunately, Anajing just paused behind the strange rock for a moment, then jumped out again and continued to move forward.

After following for a while, Gong Yining finally realized something was wrong.

The man in front...

It's not like Ana Jing!

Gong Yining only realized it at this time, but still shouted tentatively: "Anajing——"

The black figure in front of him didn't stop, just leaping forward.Gong Yining finally understood that Anajing must have played a trick behind the strange rock!Gong Yining gritted her teeth, and finally stopped chasing, but turned around and rushed towards where she came from.While jumping, she still thought about one more thing——

Fortunately, she is not as confused as Luo Changxi.

Although Gong Yining is not familiar with the roads in the palace, she still remembers the road she walked once.

However, Gong Yining soon realized that since Ana Jing wanted to deliberately dismiss her, then what she and Luo Changxi had thought before was right!Anajing said in front of them that it was for Luo Changyue's sake that she planned to have Luo Changyue and Yao Qianyu meet, but behind the scenes... I don't know what the hell she is going to do?

Gong Yining hurried back and searched around for a long time, finally saw Minghui Palace.The lights in front of the hall are brightly lit, and colorful fireworks are constantly blooming in the mid-air not far outside the hall.

——It doesn't seem to be different.

At this time, the crowd was getting closer and closer, so Gong Yining couldn't use her light work to fly around. She turned over and jumped into the corridor, and then walked towards the Minghui Hall, thinking whether she should stay in front of the hall obediently Wait, it's time to find the Piandian and see if Luo Changxi and Luo Changyue's place is going well.

But Gong Yining soon discovered that she didn't need to think about this issue anymore.

Because she has seen Luo Changxi.

From a distance, the situation in front of the Minghui Palace seems to be the same as before, a large group of people are standing in the corridor, surrounded by dense palace attendants.But when Gong Yining got closer, she realized——

wrong.

It is true that there are still many people standing in front of the Minghui Palace and surrounded by many people, but...

The atmosphere was completely different.

Everyone looked tense, some were anxious, some were frightened, and some were retreating unconsciously, as if they wanted to get out of the way.There were so many people in front of the hall, but no one dared to make a sound. Only the fireworks not far away could be heard bang from time to time, which made this place even more frighteningly oppressive.

Then, finally, someone spoke up.

"Someone-"

It was Luo Mingde's voice.

"Give me someone to come immediately!"

Gong Yining didn't dare to go any further, she subconsciously took a step back.She searched the crowd again, Luo Changxi was there, and Luo Changyue was also there.

Fortunately.

Luo Changxi seemed to have sensed it, and turned his head to see her.

The eyes of the two met, Gong Yining's eyes were confused and uneasy, while Luo Changxi's were anxious and worried.Gong Yining didn't dare to move rashly, while Luo Changxi glanced around, seeing that no one was paying attention to her, he hurriedly walked towards Gong Yining.

"What... what's wrong?"

Gong Yining intuitively felt that something serious had happened, and it was only when she opened her mouth that she realized that she was trembling a little.

But Luo Changxi asked another question first.

"Did you follow Anajing all the time?"

"I..." Gongyi calmed down and said to Luo Changxi, "I followed her, but then...she played a trick and made her run away..."

Hearing this, Luo Changxi frowned even tighter.

"What the hell happened?"

"Just now the fireworks were in the middle, and suddenly there was an assassin..." Speaking of this, Luo Changxi couldn't help but glanced at the front of Minghui Hall again.At this time, the place had gradually settled down. Luo Mingde, who was surrounded by everyone, seemed to have entered the inner hall, but the rest of the people did not dare to leave. They just stood in the corridor with their heads bowed, silent, as if waiting for something.A little further away, you can already see a few people coming in a hurry——

The imperial doctors in the official uniforms of the imperial hospital, and the little eunuchs who hurriedly followed behind the imperial doctors with their medicine boxes on their backs.

"assassin?!"

"The assassin's martial arts are so strong, and he came so suddenly that no one was prepared."

"Is it... to assassinate the emperor?"

"The strange thing is that the assassin didn't want to kill the emperor." Luo Changxi continued, "The assassin didn't approach the Minghui Hall at all, but suddenly appeared on the roof of the side hall and threw it far away. A poison dart. The assassin's technique is powerful, he hit the target with one blow, and he quickly dodged away without even a moment's pause."

"Poison... Dart..."

"That's right. It's exactly the same as..." Luo Changxi said in a deep voice, "...the poison dart that killed Qu Yiliu before and planned to take our lives is exactly the same."

Gongyi Ning's eyes widened, she couldn't believe it.

If that kind of poison dart was used, wouldn't it be... Yao Qianyu?But didn't Yao Qianyu accept the death order to kill Luo Changxi?

Knowing that Luo Changxi was right in front of her eyes, Gong Yining was still taken aback. First, she looked at Luo Changxi carefully, and then asked anxiously, "You...Are you okay?"

"I'm fine." Luo Changxi said again, "The one who was hit by the poison dart was..."

"Who?"

"The eldest son of the emperor, Luo Changzhi."

"Why... how could it be him?" Gong Yining became more and more puzzled, "It was her... who threw the wrong person with the wrong method?" Gong Yining also knew that her statement was actually a bit absurd.Since this assassin dared to commit crimes under the watchful eyes of everyone, how could he be so bad that he even got the wrong target?Gongyi froze for a moment, then tentatively said, "Then... is she taking on a new mission?"

"I don't know." Luo Changxi frowned, "Besides, I have a faint feeling..."

"What do you feel?"

"The assassin... may not be her."

"It's not her? Who is that?" Just as Gong Yining said that, she remembered another thing, and continued, "Then you and your sister went to the side hall to see her? If so, maybe... "

"No." Luo Changxi sighed, "We waited for a long time, but she never showed up."

The author has something to say: Although Xiao Ningning is smart, she was still deceived...

What's the purpose of guessing who the assassin is? →_→

The new pit will be posted later, but the agreed third update has become two due to some unspeakable reasons_(:з」∠)_
