Chapter 21 Assassination

Hearing the familiar call, I stopped, turned my head to look, and saw a pretty face with a crystal clear and jade-like little hand covering my mouth. It was Xiaoying whom I just cried out like a conditioned reflex.

I didn't have time to explain and shouted: Xiaoying, run, here's the danger inside

Who is making a big fuss outside? Before I could finish speaking, a cold voice came from behind. Then, a graceful and luxurious old woman appeared at the door. It was the fake Liu Concubine, but she didn't know when she put on her mask again

Where are you here, take down this bold slave. After the fake concubine Liu finished speaking, Mingyue, the fake eunuch beside her, hurried towards me with a sword.

Wow, so cruel, I want to take the opportunity to catch me

If she catches me, even if I have nine lives, it will not be enough to play.

At this moment, no matter what I say, it may not work.

If you escape, this fake Liu Concubine could rely on her identity and openly ask the guards to kill and silence them.

Just as I was trying to expose their identities desperately, I felt that my sleeve was pulled twice, and I looked down and it turned out to be Xiaoying

She frowned and shook her head at me

Xiaoying stepped forward a few steps, stopped Mingyue, and then bowed to the fake Liu Concubine: Ying'er greeted Liu Concubine

The fake Liu Fei was stunned, and then said with anger: Oh, it turns out to be a princess. I wonder why you want to stop me from teaching this dog slave a lesson?

Princess?

I was stunned when I heard this title

Looking at Xiaoying blankly, she opened her mouth wide but couldn't speak

Xiaoying?

Princess?

This lively, cute, understanding girl, this little sister who is shopping with me and acting cute in my arms is actually a golden branch?

I couldn't believe that looking up and down, Xiaoying's outfit was elegant and luxurious, her manners were generous, and her words were gentle and polite. How could a little maid be so upbred?

I couldn't help but curse myself for being a human-headed and pig-brained person. I have known Xiaoying for so long, but I haven't discovered her true identity yet. It's really unforgivable.

However, after all, this little princess is really hateful. She looks innocent and cute on the surface, but she doesn't expect to cheat people so well. She actually hides it from me for so long. She is really not good at appearance.

Maybe every time she meets me, she laughs in her heart that I am a fool without eyes

My mind was in a mess, and I was excited and nervous for a moment

What is excited is that I have lost my luck and recognize a princess as my sister. I don’t have to worry about financial problems in the future

What’s nervous is that this sister can make me die a hundred times by stretching her little finger, which makes me worry about the consequences of angering her one day.

Alas, benefits and risks coexist, and now I understand the meaning of it

Just as I was thinking about it, Xiaoying apologized at me, and then said to the fake Liu Concubine: Impress, please calm down this servant, Oh, no, the eunuch is someone around me. I offended the Empress because I did not understand the rules for the first time and offended the Empress. Please let Ying'er go for the sake of Ying'er's face. Ying'er will definitely punish him heavily after she goes back.

Oh, do you mean he is your person? The fake Liu Fei asked slowly with her eyes shining.

Xiaoying nodded with a red face, and the fake Liu Fei turned around between us with an indescribable gaze, not knowing what thoughts were.

Suddenly she smiled: I didn't expect that the princess would care so much about this little eunuch. Well, since it was the princess who pleaded with her, I won't care about these things. This dog slave with no eyes, remember what to say and what not to say. You have to think about it carefully, otherwise, you will lose your life in a confused way, but it will be difficult to deal with it.

Humph, this little girl is actually threatening me

Are our servants frightened?

Xiaoying was watching from the side, who was afraid of whom?

Thinking of this, I replied: Empress Xie mentioned that the villain had not seen anything and had never touched anything. Please rest assured.

The fake Concubine Liu stared at me tightly and didn't say anything for a long time

Since she was wearing a mask, she couldn't tell that her face changed. I think she should have turned into a pig's liver now.

I laughed in my heart and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, after Mingyue coughed, the fake Liu Concubine reacted, pretended to be fine, turned to Xiaoying and asked: I wonder why the princess came?

Xiaoying also let out a long sigh, glared at me, and then replied: Mother, I heard that the Empress has been feeling unwell recently, so let Ying'er come and take a look

Humph, this fake Concubine Liu must be afraid that she would show her flaws, so she hid and pretended to be sick.

She seemed a little helpless and said: Oh, yes, I have been feeling a little uncomfortable during this period, but now it is much better. Thank you for your concern.

Haha, you have today too

Seeing her panic, I was so happy that I wanted to jump up

Stinky little girl, let you be arrogant no matter how arrogant I have, I have a real princess as my backing, are you still afraid of you, a fake concubine?

Unexpectedly, when I was proud, the fake Concubine Liu looked at me provocatively, and then said to Xiaoying: Princess, this little eunuch looks quite clever. I am missing someone around me. I wonder if the princess is willing to give him to me?

Wow, it's cruel. If I stay with you, I'm afraid I won't even have bones left until tomorrow

Seeing Xiaoying pondering in embarrassment, I was so anxious that I kept striking my eyes.

Xiaoying, you must not agree to it because you meet each other

Princess Thousand Years Thousand Years Thousand Years Thousand Years, Xiao Congzi kowtowed to you here, you must resist it

Fortunately, Xiaoying refused: The Empress loves me, the little eunuch, who is a newcomer, and does not understand the rules, it is inevitable that she offends the Empress. When I go back, I will train more. Since the Empress is in good health, Ying'er will not bother you.

The fake Liu Concubine no longer bothers her and said: OK Mingyue, I'll send the princess to this palace.

I was like a general amnesty, and I quickly followed Xiaoying and left this demon cave

It wasn't until I looked back and couldn't see it anymore, I breathed a sigh of relief

A great disaster will lead to blessings

The ancients really didn't bully me. I thought that I could eat something delicious and drink something spicy in the future. I laughed out loud when I was happy.

Turning his head to look at Xiaoying beside him, she peeks at my face from time to time, as if she is afraid that I will blame her. Her cute look makes people laugh

Brother Xiaocong, Xiaoying poked me quietly with her elbow and asked in a low voice: Are you still angry with me? It’s because I’m not good, so I shouldn’t hide my identity from you.

I turned my head aside and said lightly: The princess is so polite, how dare the villain be angry with His Highness Princess? But I was laughing in my heart, Xiaoying, it's my turn to lie to you now.

Xiaoying turned to me and said with care: Brother Xiaocong, I didn't mean to lie to you on purpose, but just said that, she gritted her teeth and said angrily: It's all because of Brother Xiaocong, you're stupid. I have hinted many times, but you just didn't notice it.

I was speechless. How could I think that I could capture a princess if I caught a thief?

At this time, Xiaoying grabbed my sleeve again and said: Okay, let’s not talk about this anymore, Brother Xiaocong, why did you come into the palace? Do you know how dangerous this is?

I looked at Eunuch Hai behind me with anger. This old turtle was just at the fake Concubine Liu. He saw that things were not good, so he hid without a trace.

When the world is peaceful, he has emerged from nowhere

Just like now, he pretended not to hear, hid aside, pretending to be unrelated to him

I had no choice but to answer: I have no one in the mansion, so I have to make up for it first.

Huh? Why are there blood on your nose? Xiaoying asked with concern

Oh, I'm so angry these days, it's okay, I'm used to it. I hurriedly wiped it with my hands.

Since Xiaoying has to go back to her mother's place, I'm waiting outside

When she left, she told me not to run around and wait for her to come out.

Alas, even if I kill me now, I don't dare to run around

Escaped from death just now, I'm still a little scared

Just as I was thinking about it, my vest suddenly became numb and I couldn't move anymore. I couldn't even shout for help.

Oh no, be careful, but still be plotted

I saw a man turning from behind me. It was the fake eunuch Mingyue

Alas, why didn’t I expect her to come with her?

Then a sack was buckled on my head, and I felt my belt tightening and my feet were hung in the air, so I was picked up

Wow, so skilled, I wonder how much they have done to kill and bury corpses?

I don't know how long it took me to be put down

It's over, it's time to go to the field, now I'm going to be finished

The sack was taken off, and the light returned to my eyes. Looking at the environment, it seemed that it was still in the palace, but it was much deserted here, and there was not even a figure in my sight.

Even the house looks disrepaired, I don't know where it is

Mingyue turned to me, with a little finger around my neck, and I found that I could speak

Just as I was about to shout for help, a dagger was placed on my neck. Mingyue said viciously: If you dare to shout one word, I will let you splatter blood three feet away.

I was so scared that I didn't dare to act rashly, and begged in a low voice: Sister Mingyue, just spare me, I swear, I promise, I will never talk nonsense

She glared at me and said disdainfully: "I'm so cowardly, I really don't know how that little princess likes you. She actually treats you as a male pet."

Male pet? I was stunned, my face turned red, and I quickly defended: You misunderstood. Actually, there is nothing between us, we are just ordinary friends. I have never thought that I could be associated with the word Male pet. Now that Mingyue has revealed it, I really regret it.

If I had known that I still had the potential to be a male lover, would I have to work hard to be a servant?

Mingyue said: If not, why did she work so hard to cover up your dirty things? Well, I don’t want to hear you all the dirty things. I just ask you one thing. If you have to answer honestly, the dagger has no eyes. As he said that, the dagger that emits coldness approached my neck a few more minutes.

I had no choice but to answer: Please tell me, girl, I will tell you everything I know

She looked around, leaned over, and asked in a low voice: Let me ask you, what did you do when my lady was taking a shower?

When I heard this question, my face became hot and I stammered: Me, I did nothing, how could I have the nerve to say this?

Nonsense, there are still blood in the bathtub. Mingyue didn't let me go and immediately refuted

What can I say?

Could it be that because I saw your lady’s naked look, I was so envious that I was bleeding from my nose?

This is too embarrassing

I missed me, Zhao Wujing. I don’t know how many times I went to the brothel. I haven’t seen any romantic scenes before. Although I am entangled by Yuhu every time I go there, I have never eaten pork and seen pigs walking.

I can't tell you about the nosebleed

This, well, I stammered while rubbing the cold sweat on my forehead with my hands.

Hey, why are there blood on your hands? Oh, there is also on your nose. Mingyue thought for a while, her face turned red, she kicked me, and scolded: What a vulgar man. I didn't expect you to be so shameless. Not only did you take advantage of the lady, but you can even do this kind of vulgar action.

Speaking of this, she became gritted and shouted: You are so brave. If you don’t even say that you can get into the palace, you will actually dare to ruin my lady’s chastity and slutty thief like you, and you will only have one fate.

What is it? I asked in a trembling voice, is my life really dead?

She smiled strangely and said: Let you become a true eunuch

ah!

I was almost lost. This girl is so cruel. It would be better to kill me if I want to be a eunuch.

Just as I was about to call for help at all costs, Mingyue stinky girl lit up my mute hole in advance, making me hold back my words back to my stomach

She smiled in my ear and said: Don't be afraid, it's just a knife, it's over soon. I'm so kind to you. I'm going to do it with you. I'm going to find the most famous swordsman in the palace to take action.

Soon, she dragged me into a dim little room. Soon, a white-haired old lady came.

I can't see clearly, but my green eyes are like wolves, making me shudder

I heard him say: Mingyue, are you talking about this person?

Mingyue nodded and said: Yes, this person is the distant relative of the Queen. In order to take care of the Queen, he is willing to enter the palace in vain.

The old eunuch looked at me like a wolf staring at the food. He looked at me up and down, nodded and said: He looks okay, but he is a little older, I wonder if he can survive?

Mingyue smiled and said: Who doesn’t know that Eunuch Wang, you are the first sword technique in the palace? The Empress also knows that this is a little more dangerous, so she came to ask you to take action. After saying that, she smiled at me and said: You can take care of yourself here in the next few days. I will come to pick you up again. After saying that, the two father-in-laws ran away with a smile.

This stinky girl, you wait, I and you are not finished

Eunuch Wang smiled at me, took out a knife from his arms, and roasted the blade with the flames of an oil lamp, and said casually: I have two sword techniques, which one do you want? Should I cut it out with one knife or cut off the roots?

I don't want anything

But his hands and feet were tied tightly to the bed, and even a piece of rag was stuffed into his mouth.

I saw him holding the knife and gestured to my crotch twice

Oh my God, help me, I don’t want to be a eunuch!

Yuhu, come quickly, you are going to be a widow

Xiaoying, save me quickly, or you will lose one servant

Eunuch Hai, you old turtle, if it weren't for you, you, you would die!

Keep someone under the knife! I heard a sound from afar

Although the sound was sharp and harsh, it was like listening to the fairy music for me at this time

Ah, finally saved

Unexpectedly, Eunuch Wang was hesitating there with a knife, muttering: Well, I finally opened it back, especially so challenging, I can't just let it go. After saying that, a knife light flashed in front of me, and I fainted

I don't know how long it took, but I woke up, opened my eyes, but saw Eunuch Hai's face

The rag in my mouth was taken away at some point and my hands and feet were loosened. I asked bitterly: Am I still alive?

Eunuch Hai said with a smile: Of course, Xiaocong, congratulations, from now on, you will officially become one of us.

This sentence is like a thunderbolt from the sky, which makes me feel so angry that I can't get angry for a long time

Oh my God, what should I do?

Yuhu, I'm sorry for you, goodbye forever

Just as I was considering whether to commit suicide by hanging the beam or diving, I saw Eunuch Hai laughing and said: You are lying to you, you are really timid. Before the knife fell, you were scared to faint.

Really? Mine is still there? I asked in surprise

Of course, you have to thank our family for being familiar with Eunuch Wang, even if you have ten, you can't keep half of them. However, we still want to advise you that eunuchs are a promising industry. Do you want to think about it again?

Lao Hai, our family is all for your sake. It seems that Huichuntang has to be dragged on. Eunuch Wang interrupted.

What does it mean? I wondered

Oh, Huichuntang's deer whip has always been ordered from our Dayi

On the way back to the princess's mansion, I followed Xiaoying's sedan chair. Xiaoying lifted the side curtain and asked me quietly: Brother Xiaocong, where have you been? Why can't I see you after I came out?

Oh, nothing, I just discussed the meaning of life with Eunuch Hai. I wiped my cold sweat and said

This trip to the palace was really full of twists and turns, ups and downs,

If Eunuch Hai hadn't been staring at me with all his heart and found out that I was kidnapped, I'm afraid I'd really have a soul-breaking palace

I swear I will never enter the palace again

I thought I could have a romantic encounter, but I didn't expect that I almost had a chance. I was going to break the battle before I could succeed. It was so thrilling.

Walking on the spacious avenue and admiring the sunset, I feel that life is so beautiful for the first time

It turns out that I have not experienced the test of life and death, and I will not experience the joy of life

Under the sunlight, the leaves on both sides of the road also shine with gorgeous light, and with the shiny weapons on it, it looks particularly beautiful

Weapon?

I suddenly realized, and just as I was about to shout, I saw a few dazzling lights coming. I heard a few shrill screams before my death. Several masked men in black were attacking the sedan chair with bloody weapons, and they were attacking the sedan chair.

There are assassins! Panic shouts are coming one after another, and the guards are approaching the sedan chair and forming a circle, while the palace maids and eunuchs following behind are in a mess, some are huddled on the ground, some are running around for protection, and crying and shouting are mixed with them, which is a terrible sight

Soon, the guards woke up from the initial panic and formed a formation, mostly entangled the assassins, while the rest surrounded the sedan chair to protect the princess' safety.

Obviously, the martial arts of those assassins are far higher than the guards, and they rush left and right in the encirclement. Each sword will inevitably bring about a rain of blood.

However, under the counterattack of the guards regardless of their lives, they could not help but stay in the encirclement and were unable to move to the sedan chair.

Brother Xiaocong, what's wrong outside? Xiaoying lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and asked in a cold war

It's nothing, there's no need to be afraid of a few assassins who don't have eyes, it's fine soon. Seeing Xiaoying's frightened face, I comforted her.

Brother Xiaocong, you should hide in the sedan chair when you are in danger outside. Xiaoying said

I felt warm. Although hiding in the sedan chair is not necessarily safer than outside, Xiaoying is still so concerned about my safety in such a dangerous situation. This little princess is really kind-hearted

No, man, real man, I haven't seen any dangers before, these assassins are still in my eyes, I patted my chest and said

Thinking back to those days, the bandits in Qingfeng Village and Sun Erniang from Cross Slope, I left without any harm when facing these murderous bandits.

What's more, there are so many big guards here, what am I worried about?

As soon as I finished speaking, I saw a few hidden weapons calling me towards me. I was so scared that I shrank my head and avoided it. Without saying a word, I got into the sedan chair.

It's better to have wooden boards blocking it than to stand outside as a target

Seeing Xiaoying's surprised face, I said embarrassedly: Oh, the assassins outside are very cunning, I will come in to protect you. After saying that, I dare not look at Xiaoying's face again, lifted the curtain, and started to watch the situation outside.

The signal to ask the Imperial Guard for help has been sent. If nothing unexpected happens, when a large number of guards arrive, these assassins may have no choice but to surrender.

But I think something seems wrong. If the assassins only have this ability, how dare they assassins assassins assassins?

Is there any other tricks?

At this moment, a white light flashed in front of him, and a masked man in white rushed down from the tree, and the sword was stalked into the sedan chair.

No, it turns out that those people just attracted the attention of the guards, and now this person is the killer of this assassination

Seeing that the situation was not good, the guards next to the sedan chair met them one after another. They saw sword light flashing and blood rain flying. The guards fell one by one, and there was no enemy of this person. The person who came paused for a moment, and the sword light shot towards Xiaoying.

Protect the princess! Several guards in the distance shouted and rushed here, but because of the entanglement of the assassins, they were powerless to deal with the sudden incidents that happened here.

What to do?

Did you just watch Xiaoying die in front of me?

My mind was blank. I didn't know where the courage came from. I reached out and hugged Xiaoying behind me. When I faced the assassin in white, I had only had time to watch the tip of the sword stabbed towards my chest.

Looking for death! I heard the man in white stop shouting, but there was no time to change the sword path, and the tip of the sword was directly pierced on my chest

Brother Xiaocong--Xiaoying's cry sounded in his ears

I heard a cracking sound on my chest, and the pain like a thorn spreads to my chest from one point

Am I going to die?

I felt empty in my heart. At this time, I was only two feet away from the masked man.

Even if you want to die, you can't be a fool. See who you are dying under

I reached out to grab the assassin's face, and he seemed to be stunned and let me take off his face towel

The face of the assassin was not as fierce as I thought. His face was full of flesh. A line of tears hung on his pale and beautiful face, and the slightly trembling red lips seemed to be telling something again.

Yuhu The person in front of me is the lover I have been thinking about day and night. I didn't expect that I would die at the hands of my beloved person.

Could it be that my life is really against Tai Sui today?

Escape from death several times, but in the end it still couldn't escape this damn fate

However, it is better to die at Yuhu's hands than to die in the palace in a daze

Next time, I will kill me and I will not enter the palace.

A cramp in my heart, and then I lost consciousness

Regarding the topic of death, I remember Liu Mei'er once asked me, Xiaocong, where do you say people will go if they die?

If you die, well, you will go into the coffin if you die. There are also other situations, such as being eaten by a wild dog, a crow, or a fish. I stuffed her snacks into my mouth and said

I just told a good story. It is rare that the little girl is very kind and allows me to eat her snacks. If I don’t eat enough money at once, how can I be worthy of my stomach?

You, you know that eating is asking you, will you go to hell if a person dies? Liu Meier snatched the food plate in front of me and stared at me with a glaring look at me

Maybe hehe, Miss, if you are kind-hearted people, especially those who are willing to give food to others, you will definitely be born after death. Those who rob people of food will definitely be thrown into a tongue-pulling prison after death. Well, it is the kind of person who pulls his tongue out and grows one more, and then pulls it out, and grows it, how miserable I stared at the food plate and said with saliva.

But, I heard that I had to drink Mengpo soup before reincarnation, and I had to forget everything in this life, wuwu, but I don’t want to forget all this, there is father, brother, Yuehua, and you. Liu Meier started crying as she talked.

This is easy, Miss, can you please let me eat something? Only when I am full can I have the strength to come up with a solution.

Finally, after I wiped out the plate of snacks, I patted my stomach and wiped my mouth and said: This is easy. Just burn more paper money before you die. At that time, just secretly bribe that Meng Po and don’t drink that bowl of soup.

Really? Then Xiaocong, what do you think we will go to see Meng Po together after we die? Let her, let her, what are you reading about?

Oh, I'm saying 'Allah bless' Allah is the God of the great cannibalism. That's a kind guy. I heard that his believers can go to heaven after their death. There are countless beauties in that heaven, and you can enjoy all your blessings at any time. How fascinating, why are you hitting me? Help, Miss, crazy

Don't run away, kill you, the pervert
