499 Assassin
"I said, I will let you make your own choice. However, I thought, aren't you deeply in love with Qi Shen? When I knew he was in trouble, I had to rush to share life and death with him regardless of his own safety. So... for his future, it shouldn't be difficult for you to make such a little sacrifice, right?"
Emperor Yongcheng's eyes flashed, as if he was looking forward to seeing Xie Luanyin's struggle.
Xie Luanyin snorted in her heart, perverted.
"What if I really don't stay? What would happen to Qi Shen?" She wanted to hear, another option he gave.
"Of course I can't go back to Shaanxi." Emperor Yongcheng looked a little disappointed.
"Then there should always be a place to go." Anyway, there is no worry about life.
"Minnan." His eyes darkened, and Emperor Yongcheng confessed.
Xie Luan was stunned, but there was not much surprise on his face. Instead, he thought for a moment and suddenly laughed, "Your Majesty is really comprehensive and comprehensive. It seems that the Great Zhou is blessed. Your Majesty has really a genius in governing the world. You can calm the chaos and revive the Great Zhou."
These words are obviously praise, but I can't hear any praise.
Emperor Yongcheng's eyebrows were tightly closed, and he didn't want to talk to her anymore. He was the only one who was angry.
"You choose two paths. It's easy to choose one of two. Or... you can't choose it, let Qi Shen choose later."
Xie Luan was a little curious, "Your Majesty prefers which path we choose? Why not say it, but you can really make you what you want?"
Xie Luan blinked and smiled, but Emperor Yongcheng looked at her, but felt angry and could not say a word.
In the Octagonal Pavilion, the atmosphere was suddenly condensed.
The footsteps came quietly and orderly, but the father-in-law Shun, who had just received the order, came one after another with a few palace maids with lowered eyebrows and lowered their eyes and holding trays on their hands.
"Your Majesty, I'm here to bring the refreshment." The group first knelt outside the pavilion, then stood up, and under the leadership of his father-in-law Shun, he entered the Octagonal Pavilion.
Ruyi cake, rose crispy, steamed crispy cheese, and osmanthus cake were all over the table.
Putting down the pastry, everyone else left the pavilion, leaving only two palace maids to pour tea for Emperor Yongcheng and Xie Luanyin.
"You don't need to make a decision immediately. You can go back and think about it for a few days. Of course, you can also discuss it with Qi Shenhaosheng." At this time, Emperor Yongcheng's eyebrows and eyes were stretched out, and he was very generous.
Xie Luanyin was not grateful, "It seems that there is no third way to go?" She sneered, and she lowered her head. At that moment, a ray of snow-lit sword light flashed past her eyes. In the flash, Xie Luanyin subconsciously turned sideways to avoid it. Her hand had already grabbed the short dagger in her sleeve that never left her body through her sleeve, but at the moment she touched it, she paused and moved away.
He just leaned back with panic and raised his arms to block it.
"Ah!" A cry of pain, the sharp sword light was stabbing towards her chest, but because Xie Luanyin didn't know how to find out, the reaction was prompt. After giving and blocking, it only cut through Xie Luanyin's arm.
The short knife was pulled out and brought out a bloody red moment.
A trace of fishy color flowed down the sharp tip of the knife.
The sharp sword light and the fishy color together made the palace maid look ferocious. If she missed a blow, she waved the sword again and approached Xie Luanyin.
But how could it be that easy?
Although the incident happened suddenly, Emperor Yongcheng reacted until now and pulled Xie Luanyin to his side.
Outside the Octagonal Pavilion, two figures, one tall and the other petite, flew to the sky almost at the same time.
But in the flash, the other palace maid who seemed to be trembling with fear suddenly pulled out a dagger and stabbed towards Emperor Yongcheng and Xie Luanyin, but was kicked away by Hongdou who was driving there halfway.
In the blink of an eye, Yanzhi and Hongdou had already fought with the two palace maids.
"Assassin! Come and save the car!" Outside the pavilion, Master Shun's sharp voice almost cut through the silence of the night sky. This quiet night was finally torn apart by the sudden solemnity and blood.
A sharp whistle sounded, and Rouge was just looking up while fighting with others. A sharp light shone. Her pupils shrank, her face turned pale, and she said anxiously, "There are people on the top of the palace, please be careful!"
Xie Luan raised her eyes in shock and looked up at the top of the hall. She happened to see a person standing on the roof with the colorful lights of the hanging lanterns. She was wrapped in black clothes with the same color as the night. She was covering her face against the light and covering her face. She couldn't see her face clearly. However, Xie Luan's eyes were no more than others, but she could still see the man's eyes exposed outside the face towel, and the cold murderous aura was exposed. A light crossbow in her hand was already pulled, and the sharp arrow pointed straight in their direction.
As Xie Luan's pupils shrank, he heard a "whoosh" sound, and the sharp arrow shot out quickly and broke through the air...
The arrow came in full force, and Xie Luan was close to Emperor Yongcheng, and I don’t know who it was for. But the octagonal pavilion was only that big. Now, Yanzhi and Hongdou fought with the two assassins on one side, and wanted to protect her and Emperor Yongcheng on one side. There was only one corner, and the back was opened, but there was nowhere to be avoided.
It was too late to say it, then it was soon.
Seeing that the sharp arrow was about to take his life, at this moment, a sharp arrow shot from somewhere, colliding with the one. After a crisp "clang" sound, both of them lost their strength and fell to the ground.
The man at the top of the palace immediately turned his crossbow and headed to a certain place in the darkness, and shot a few arrows in succession. He only heard the sound of sharp arrows breaking through the air one after another. In just a moment, the man at the top of the palace groaned "um" and fell from the top of the palace...
In the pavilion, the two assassins who were entangled by rouge and red beans and could not escape for a long time were panicked at this time, and looked at each other, and made a move, preparing to escape.
Unexpectedly, a black shadow rushed over outside the pavilion, and lifting his legs was a heart-warming foot, without any mercy.
Before the first assassin could react, his body flew up like a kite with broken strings and was kicked out of the pavilion a few steps away. Then, with a "bang", it landed heavily on the ground.
The assassin felt a tearing pain in his chest. When he tilted his head, he spit out a large mouthful of blood with a "pop".
Another assassin was a little confused by the sudden change in front of him. When he was flashing his god, his neck was already blocked.
The heavy sound of the boots rubbing against the armor from afar, but the Imperial Guard finally arrived. When we got closer, we realized that the matter had subsided. We hurriedly knelt down and apologized, "I will wait until the rescue will come late, so I will ask Your Majesty to punish you."
"Please punish your Majesty."
Emperor Yongcheng looked unwilling and frowned, "Master Ye, you are responsible for the guards of the palace. When an assassin entered the palace, he almost took my life. I will blame you. Now, you will detain these assassins awaiting trial first, and you must pry open their mouths for me and ask clearly the commander behind the scenes to see if you can punish me."
"Thank you for your kindness."
"Come on! I tied up all these assassins and threw them into the Ministry of Justice's prison awaiting trial."
