Chapter 56：

assassin?

Tao Ti suddenly "cocked" in his heart, and his face was full of consternation.

Are these assassins coming for the prince? Who sent it?

The bitter and hateful eyes of Princess Mu appeared in her mind for the first time...

Could it be Princess Mu? But Prince Mu is also outside, she will not go crazy, even her husband will not care about it.

Tao Ti stood up with his hands on the table, the clank of fighting outside became more intense, and her calves were a little weak.

"What to do, so many officers and soldiers guard, how can there be assassins!"

"Ah, my husband is still outside, oooooooo..."

"Guard, where's the guard? Help!"

The other females in the room were in a mess, screaming in panic, some hiding in the corner, and some hiding under the table. Their survival instincts made them forget about their status and etiquette at this moment.

Tao Ti couldn't take care of them either, her delicate red lips were pressed tightly, and she was about to walk out.

Linglong stopped her, "The princess don't go, it's dangerous outside!"

Tao Ti grabbed Linglong's hand and said anxiously, "Linglong, you can also martial arts, you should go out to protect Your Highness, these assassins should be directed at His Highness!"

Linglong was startled. Although she was also worried about the situation, she gritted her teeth and said, "Prince Princess, Your Royal Highness confesses that your safety must be your safety first."

"I'm fine, you see, none of them came in!"

"..."

Seeing Linglong not speaking, Tao Ti frowned. This feeling of hearing only the sound but not seeing the outside situation is really terrible, scratching her heart and liver, she said, "Then don't stop me, I have to Go and see."

Linglong still wanted to stop, Tao Ti pulled her sleeves, pitifully acting like a baby, "I know that I don't know how to martial arts, and I will be messy when I go out. I will hide by the door to see what is going on under Your Highness. If I don't see it with my own eyes, I'm worried."

Her black eyes were shining with water, and her voice was soft and soft, Linglong hesitated for a while.

Taking advantage of this stall, Tao Ti hurried to the door, poking his head and looking out from the crack of the door—

The fighting outside was very fierce. The guards on the ship were fighting with a lot of people in black. The shadows of the swords and swords shook people's heart. There were already many corpses lying on the ground, including assassins and officers and soldiers. Strong **** gas.

The lantern was swayed by the wind, Tao Ti frowned, trying to find Pei Yan's figure.

She saw Sun Fuyin shivering in the corner, Wangye Mu surrounded by guards, flattening fierce fights with five or six assassins, and rolling eyes with pain while holding his shoulders. Fu Xirui...looked around, but was stunned that he didn't see Pei Yan.

Tao Ti is anxious: Where's the prince, how big is the prince!

She couldn't wait to squeeze her whole head out of the door, and said anxiously, "Linglong, your Highness, why can't I see him?!"

Seeing her anxiously stomped her feet, Linglong's heart sank slightly.

Tao Ti's eyebrows were tightly furrowed, and she couldn't see Pei Yan, her heart was very flustered, and countless bad situations were already in her mind.

Was he stabbed? Or was it kidnapped by the assassin? Or did you accidentally fall into the river?

No, no, she can't just watch it like this.

"I have to go and have a look—" Tao Ti said, just about to open the door, thinking of something, and looking around in the private room.

Tables and chairs, no, they are too heavy to move.

Incense burner, no, hot, not easy to handle.

This long vase...it's okay.

Tao Ti strode forward and poured out the flowers and water inside. Holding the bottleneck of the flower in his hand, he was about to open the door when a lady called out, "Prince Princess, Prince...Your Highness!"

Tao Ti was stunned and looked in the direction that the lady was pointing to. Outside the right window of Huafang, Pei Yan and several guards were besieged by more than a dozen men in black.

The people in black are like cockroaches, constantly pouring out from all corners, cutting one another and appearing again.

Seeing that there are fewer and fewer guards around Pei Yan, Tao Ti clenched his heart tightly, and her hand holding the vase was a little trembling.

After seeing that Pei Yan's arm was chopped and the blood stained his light-colored shirt, Tao Ti could no longer stand, and his voice was broken due to excessive tension, "Your Highness!"

Ah, **** assassin, how dare he hurt him!

Tao Ti was trembling all over!

...

Pei Yan was being attacked by the leader of the man in black. He was holding a sword and dodged constantly. For that matter, he was hit by a sword on his waist and arms, and blood kept flowing out.

The man in black with sharp moves stared at Pei Yan, and on the masked black scarf, those sharp eyes flashed brightly.

With eyes facing each other, Pei Yan's face was pale and his eyes firm.

The black-clothed leader changed his sword abruptly, the long sword glowing in the night, and the next moment, the sword head broke the wind sharply, and went straight towards Pei Yan's chest—

"Stab!" The sword pierced through the brocade and the voice of flesh and blood.

"Bang!" The sound of the vase hitting the man in black's arm.

Before the two of them reacted, they saw a petite figure rushing towards them deftly and quickly, "Your Highness, run!"

Pei Yan was shocked.

I saw that figure directly hit the waist of the man in black, and the man in black drew dexterously. Tao Ti didn't have time to brake and directly smashed through the railing—

"what-!"

What tofu dregs railings!

"Ati!"

"Your Highness—"

In the dark night, the two figures fell into the water successively.

The figure in black shook, and almost jumped down. He looked up and saw that the flat side broke through the encirclement, and came with a group of guards. The black-clothed man's eyes were heavy, he put away the sword, and hurriedly evacuated.

"Princess, princess!" Linglong yelled down beside the broken railing, her eyes red.

"Where is your Royal Highness? Where is the prince?" Zhan Ping asked urgently.

"The princess fell, and his Royal Highness followed."

After listening to Zhanping, he scolded anxiously, and then hurriedly said to the guard, "If you know the water, go down, be sure to find the prince and the prince!"

Soon, the guards went into the water one after another to salvage.

After a while, Prince Mu and Sun Fu Yin also rushed over, "Master Zhan, how is your Highness?"

Zhanping looked at them unscathed, his grim faces tense, and said coldly, "I didn't hide it very fast just now, I know I care now."

Mu Wangye Sun Fu Yin, "..."

The exhibition plane is as sinking as water, "His Royal Highness happened on your Luoyang boundary. Tonight, the painting boat farewell banquet was also arranged by Sun Fuyin. If your Highness has three long and two short, you can't escape the relationship!"

After all, he didn't bother to talk with them, so he quickly set off to paint a boat, change boats, and organize people to start salvaging.

Prince Mu and Sun Fu Yin stood where they were, their expressions ugly.

Sun Fuyin asked, "Master, what the **** is going on? For the safety of the prince, the subordinates also specially added heavy troops on both sides of the river today. What is the origin of these assassins and how can they get on the boat?"

Prince Mu stared at him angrily, "You ask what the king did, how can this king know!"

Sun Fu Yin, "You, you..."

Mu Wangye guessed what Sun Fuyin meant, and said angrily, "Are you a fool as the king? For assassination at this kind of banquet, how many heads does this king have enough to chop?!"

Sun Fuyin shook his whole body when he was roared, and said angrily, "The prince has misunderstood. This is not what he meant to be an official."

Lord Mu stroked his beard and looked at the soldiers who had been salvaged in the dark. His expression was complicated. What happened to the assassination tonight?

Could it be arranged by Chang'an? Or is it... the princess? !

As soon as this speculation came out, the more he thought about it, the more he felt it was possible, and the narrow-eyed woman in his heart cursed, this is going to kill their entire Prince Mu's mansion!

"Hey, prince, where are you going?"

"The king will go back to the mansion first, Sun Fu Yin, you are here to guard, if you have any news, immediately send someone to my mansion to inform." Mu Wangye dropped this sentence and left in a hurry.

Sun Fuyin squeezed his fist and hammered his palm twice, and his face collapsed. What is this all about!

...

Batch after batch of soldiers dived into the river, bringing back disappointments again and again.

"Master Zhan, the water is too turbulent, and at night, the underwater is pitch black, you can't see anything, it's really hard to find."

"It's hard to find and you have to find it, you can't find the prince, we all clean our necks and wait for our heads!"

"Master Zhan, why don't you wait for dawn and send more people to look for?"

"What kind of **** talk, when it's dawn, the prince and the princess don't know where they rushed."

Zhanping is almost going to be **** off by these people, if he hadn't had to stabilize the situation on the shore, he would have liked to plunge into the water to find him.

He clenched his fists, stood on the bank, and looked at the surging Luohe under the darkness, and his thick eyebrows were tightly furrowed into the word "Chuan".

—

Tao Ti knew water, and suddenly plunged into the river. Aside from choking a couple of mouthfuls, there was nothing serious about it.

The problem is that she didn’t expect that Pei Yan also jumped down—

At first, he was still struggling to swim towards Tao Ti, but he had several wounds on his body, especially his chest. The more he swims, the faster the blood flow.

When he finally took Tao Ti's hand, he was already exhausted, and his handsome face was pale in the cold moonlight.

"Ati." He called out softly, his hands and feet feeling extremely heavy.

Tao Ti looked at his frail appearance, and was anxious, and hurriedly took his shoulders, "His Royal Highness, hold on, I will take you ashore..."

She tried to swim to the shore, but Pei Yan was too big and tall, and coupled with the rush of water, she became weaker and weaker as she swam.

The feeling of a little bit of physical strength passing from the body is too clear, clearly scary.

When it came to this, she was not afraid of death, the big deal is that she died, just to go to the underworld and reincarnate back.

But she couldn't give up, Pei Yan was still by her side, and she couldn't let him die.

Before his strength was almost exhausted, Tao Ti hugged his arm tightly, pulled off his belt, and tied their wrists tightly together to prevent being washed away by the river.

After finishing this step, she also has no strength, and the whole person is in a state of "doing everything to do with the fate". Relaxing her body, she floats down with the river.

I don't know how long it has been floating, as if I still had a deep sleep. When Tao Ti opened his eyes again, the sky was green with crab shells and the water flow slowed down a lot.

Tao Ti bit her tongue vigorously, keeping her awake with pain, watching Pei Yan floating beside her with her eyes closed, she swam to the dark shore with the last trace of strength.

When the body touched the ground, she almost didn't cry.

Finally landed!

She took a big breath and couldn't take a break, turning over to check Pei Yan's condition.

"His Royal Highness, we are on the shore, you wake up!" She stretched out her hand and patted his face.

Pei Yan's face was pale as paper due to excessive blood loss. Hearing this call, he managed to open his eyes, Tao Ti's face gradually became clear from blurry before his eyes.

Tao Ti was overjoyed, "Great, you still have consciousness..."

She turned her head and looked at the surrounding environment. At this moment, the sky was faintly bright, reflecting the scene of a secluded forest.

She doesn't have much idea about directions, only knows that they seem to have drifted far.

Withdrawing his gaze, Tao Ti looked at Pei Yan's torn robe. His arms, chest and back had arrow wounds of varying degrees, and he was stained with red robe again after being washed by the blood stains of the river.

Tao Ti quickly wiped the water off his face, used the energy of milking, and dragged him to a large rock on the shore, "Your Majesty, I will help you tie up the wound first, so that no more bleeding."

She whispered an offense, and her little hand unzipped his robe for him, layer after layer, until his thin and sturdy upper body was completely exposed in front of her eyes.
