In the eyes of many customers on Yichun Tower, only a man burst into rushing towards the window, and bumped into Li Shishi on the way. In the blink of an eye, only the broken window and a blood-filled folding fan inserted on the ground were left at the scene.

"There are assassins!"

After all, Zhao Huai was not old and was not as calm as his sister. He was so scared that he was so scared that he even called on the guards, forgetting that he didn't bring any guards at all when he went out today.

Su Xiangning fell to the ground and let out a short scream. She was a little panicked while spinning. Before she could react, she felt her strong arms hugging her. Looking up, it was Cao Hua's nervous and angry face, looking up and down to see if she was injured.

Su Xiangning was still in shock. Although it hurts after falling a little, the impact was not great. She spoke softly:

"I'm fine..."

Cao Hua breathed a sigh of relief and turned his head to look. Li Shishi had already stood up from the ground, rubbed his shoulders with his slender hands, his face was still calm, and he was looking down with concern:

"Miss Xiao Su, didn't she fall?"

Cao Hua looked up and down at Li Shishi a few times, and there was no sign of abnormality in his complexion. He could only nod slightly at the moment:

"Thank you!"

Li Shishi smiled and said nothing.

When Cao Hua saw Zhao Huai panic, he could not let Prince Kang ignore him, so he could only help Su Xiangning up and run over to appease Zhao Huai.

The owner of Yichun Tower and Mrs. Tang noticed the abnormal movement here, and the guests also surrounded him, and the hall was filled with noise.

Mrs. Tang was frightened and ran to Li Shishi and was anxious and annoyed:

"This thief is so bold,...ah...Shi Shi, are you hurt?"

Many talented literati also look like they are pitying, standing beside them, asking about their well-being, or cursing thieves to be bold and arrogant.

Because the hall was full of people, Cao Hua was afraid that something would go wrong, so he left Yichun Tower with the shocked Su Xiangning and Zhao Huai, and met with the nearby Heiyu Guard to search for the whereabouts of the thief.

Su Xiangning was already relatively timid, but she felt scared at this time. She grabbed Cao Hua's hand tightly, and her eyelashes trembled slightly, showing her inner uneasiness. She wanted to thank Li Shishi for a few words, but she didn't dare to do it at this time, so she could only follow Cao Hua to leave closely.

Walking out of the gate of Yichun Tower, Su Xiangning looked back. During the break between Li Shishi's conversation with the guests, his eyes also looked at her, or Cao Hua's side.

Su Xiangning nodded slightly and showed an apology smile. However, when Li Shishi saw her turning around, she had already looked away...

-----

As soon as he left Yichun Tower and came to the lakeside, the Black Feather Guard, who was responsible for secretly protecting Su Xiangning, ran over and half-kneeled and said in a deep voice:

"Governor, the thief has an accomplice to help, and he has disappeared."

Cao Hua was still shocked and angry. If it weren't for Xu Ziling's reminder and Li Shishi's self-sacrifice, Su Xiangning would either die or be injured. In the past, assassins were all coming to him. Today, he met a suspicious person outside the lake embankment. His subconscious power was so wary that he was paying attention to anyone who approached him. It was probably because of this reason that the other party chose to attack Su Xiangning.

But killing Su Xiangning has no meaning except to provoke him. The other party knew that he was alert and should give up assassination, but still chose to take action. This means that the other party was trying to test. Judging from the other party's decisiveness of retreating without a blow, this also proves this.

Cao Hua thought about the people who dared to test his skills and then acted, except Zhu Xie, only Fang La.

"Go to check the people under Fang La and Zhu Jie. The assassin just now is a bald man, and he is not as good as Li Bairen, and he is definitely not an unknown person."

"promise!"

The Black Feather Guard immediately stood up and ran towards the street.

Cao Hua thought for a while and raised his hand again: "Wait, leave this matter to Han'er. Go back and send the news, and bring two doctors here to see how Li Shishi is injured."

"promise."

The Black Feather Guard took the order and left.

Cao Hua took Zhao Huai and Su Xiangning to the carriage on the street and drove back towards Baima Mountain.

Su Xiangning calmed down a little, no longer grabbed Cao Hua's hand tightly, and looked at Yichun Tower, which was gradually moving away from the car window, feeling a little worried:

"Cao Hua, Shishi is injured?"

Cao Hua leaned in the carriage, frowned and pondered, and turned his head and sighed:

"The assassin just now is very skillful. Although I forced him to relieve his strength, his strength should not be underestimated. Li Shishi is probably seriously injured... It's just that she pretends to be calm, so I can't check her injuries."

Su Xiangning's face suddenly changed. She wanted to get off the car and go back to take a look. When she saw Zhao Huai, who was also afraid of the other side, she had to give up her thoughts and pursed her lips and felt a little guilty:

"Shishi helped me block it just now. If it weren't for her, I would be the one who was injured. Shishi has always been kind-hearted, I...I shouldn't have left..."

"I don't know who is doing it behind my back. It's not advisable to stay here for a long time. I'll send you to the royal palace first."

Cao Hua sighed. Zhao Hua was obviously scared in front of him. If there were still assassins lurking around, it would be possible that they would make mistakes. He could not take the risk of putting Su Xiangning and Zhao Huai in an unsafe place for some human nature.

As for Li Shishi, I can only come here later to apologize...

--------

In Yichun Tower, the lively atmosphere was reduced a lot. Some officials came to drive over and chase people, or jumped out of the window to search for whereabouts.

In the room upstairs, Li Shishi had already said goodbye to many guests and returned to the house.

The doors and windows were closed, and there was some medicine smell floating in the room. Li Shishi sat in front of the dressing table, took off the upper part of her skirt, revealing her snowy back and shoulders, leaving only the red tether on her neck. Near the white and flawless right shoulder, a shocking black blue stamped on her skin, like a piece of ink stained on rice paper, which was already a little swollen.

Huan'er held the wound medicine with a nervous face. Every time he touched the wound, Li Shishi's body trembled slightly. However, Li Shishi's expression was as calm as ever, just looking at the reflection in the bronze mirror.

Mrs. Tang was furious and walked back and forth in the house with a chicken feather blanket, with both heartache and anger in her eyes:

"You, you! Are you crazy or stupid? People say, 'If you don't do it for yourself, heaven and earth will be destroyed', so you go and block the assassin for others. Is your own life not your life?"

"Mom, I didn't think so much about it just now..."

Bang-

Mrs. Tang knocked on the table with a chicken-feather blanket, and looked very angry: "Others don't know, I have raised you for so many years but I haven't known it? You always stay awake in front of the emperor, and the situation just now will not panic. Even if you don't have time to think about it in a hurry, you should hide next to you. What's the matter with blocking others?"

Li Shishi lowered her head slightly, did not deny it, but just chuckled: "I think it's a pity that Xiao Su has finally managed to survive and die like this, so I went to block it."

"Ph-it's not a pity if you die?"

Mrs. Tang's eyes were full of anger, and the sound of the chicken feather blanket knocking on the table:

"Do you think I don't know what you are trying to do? The result is that you sacrifice your life to help Cao Taisui protect the woman. When you fell to the ground, Cao Taisui didn't even look at it. He helped her woman up first to see if it was hurt. Or you got up by yourself. It's such a cruel heart..."

"It's normal human nature..."

"What kind of human nature? You are stupid. Your life is worthy of 'thank you'?, I'm sorry that someone said too much, and I turned my head and left with the woman. You were still standing there stupidly, watching, what are you watching? Waiting for someone to look back and comfort you? You pretend that it's okay, how do you know that you have something to do?...

...How did I teach you over the years? If you don’t cry or make trouble, you expect men to look at you more? If you don’t want to pretend, you are really hurt now. If you don’t cry or make trouble, you are afraid that others will find out. What are you trying to do?”

Li Shishi took a breath, took the white cloth with the wound medicine in Huan'er's hand, applied it to the bruises, frowned, but did not react much, just said calmly:

"I just want to block Xiao Su's sister. I have no other thoughts. Mom, don't guess randomly."

Mrs. Tang stomped her feet in a pissy manner and walked back and forth in the house:

"I am so old and dealing with you girls every day. I can't see what you think? It's really...ah..."

Nagging constantly, seemingly blamed, but more heartache.
