C78

The few of them were whispering to each other again. I didn't hear any secrets, but I had some knowledge about his identity. Just as I was about to descend the tree, I suddenly heard the rough voice of the prince saying:

"Sir, do you think that person from the Great Sui Imperial Palace is reliable?" Could he really lure the emperor of Big Sui Jiang into falling for it? Do you know how to play tricks on me? "

Yang Guang was originally a military general with outstanding military achievements, and now, Big Sui Yi was the most powerful. Although the Turks had unified most of their forces in recent years, expanding their influence, and had never before expanded their influence, they still had some distance to go in order to fight against Big Sui.

However, if Yang Guang did not know that they had set up a spy in the palace and was deceived by him, the outcome would be unpredictable.

"..." Don't worry... "We won't place the treasure on a single person …" The Chinese man's voice was soft, so I couldn't hear clearly, but from what he said, he probably had other plans besides the palace.

If the two countries were to fight, both sides would naturally plan for it. Since they were able to place spies in the palace, Yang Guang was definitely not an ordinary person, and had probably made arrangements beforehand.

But, who was the spy in the palace? From the looks of it, he could say something to Yang Guang. Otherwise, he wouldn't have fooled Yang Guang.

Could it be Su Ke Er? I've always suspected that Su Ke Er was the one who poisoned Yun'er. After all, she was the one who personally gave Yun'er the pearl necklace.

Back then, during the talent competition, she had also secretly sent people to investigate her background. She was originally from the Luo Yang Eastern Capital, and was born in a brothel.

Seeing her elegant and refined appearance, a gentleman of noble character from Luoyang, redeemed her and presented her as an adopted daughter to the magistrate of Luoyang.

In order to curry favor with Yang Guang, the Prefect of Luoyang took advantage of the talent show to send Yang Guang to Beijing.

Her background doesn't qualify her to be an imperial concubine, but since the emperor always stands at the back and chooses his wife over others, and Yang Guang dotes on her, he once said that although she was born lowly, she was untainted by mud, so I had no choice but to let her go.

Now that she thought about it, with her status, the people she made friends with would definitely be a mess. It was difficult to guarantee that she wouldn't be bribed by others. Ever since I saw Yang Guang enter the brothel with my own eyes, I have always been wary of the brothel women.

But before the truth was revealed, he wasn't sure if it was Su Ke-er. Anyone in the palace who could approach Yang Guang was suspected, including some close to the palace maids and inner guards.

Mrs. Xuanhua and Chen Zhen were the South Chen slaves, and because of their status as princesses, they had the honor of being pampered today. However, they could not protect their country from Yang Guang, who had a grudge against them.

But Chen had been with me for many years, and I had never seen her befriend an outsider, and her son was her own son, so she would never have done such a thing. When the late emperor was still around, Lady Xuanhua had secretly colluded with Yang Guang to help him ascend to the throne. Although vicious, she was still loyal to Yang Guang.

Furthermore, he used the poison of the Turk, now that I think about it, if Yang Guang knew that there was a spy in the palace, he would definitely suspect me, what a ruthless scheme.

The more he thought about it, the more confused he became.

After all, it was winter, and a cold wind pierced my bones. I had been hiding in a tree, and my hands were red and swollen from the cold, and my entire body was numb. My face was as if a knife was cutting through it.

I resisted the itchy feeling in my nose and tried to get away quickly, but I was still unable to control myself, so I sneezed.

It was too late for him to cover his mouth. The people in the guest room could already hear him.

"Who is it?!" A rough voice broke into my eardrums with the sound of a window being quickly opened. Startled, I grabbed a rope and quickly slid down.

Unexpectedly, the Turkic was able to move quickly. He jumped down from the window, drew his crescent moon blade, and pierced towards me.

When I landed, the scholar's hat had already been cut off by the Turkic's waist and slowly fell to the ground with a few strands of hair.

My heart palpitated with fear. If I had been even a foot slower when I slid down earlier, I would have already been decapitated and my life would have ended.

Even if I managed to avoid it, it wouldn't do me any good. I turned pale as I stared at the murderous Turkic and retreated step by step. He rushed towards me, and behind me was the wall of the backyard.

I did not expect that I, who had escaped from the palace after so many hardships, would die today under the sword of the Turkic people, and I could not help but feel a sense of sorrow.

I closed my eyes and stretched my neck, waiting for him to kill me, like a meat chopping board, waiting to slaughter a lamb. I was not unnerved, I just wanted to die with more dignity.

His head of black hair had long since been scattered along with the blade attack. It fell down like a waterfall, covering his waist. The cold night wind blew on his face, blowing his black hair into the air. It fluttered in the air and pounced on his face. Suddenly, he felt a sense of desolation.

In the darkness, my mind was blank as I quietly waited for death to come.

However, after waiting for a while, there was no sign of the other party taking action. Unsurprised, I couldn't help but raise my eyes. In the dim light from the guest room window, I saw a tall and sturdy man with a thick Turkic beard.

He was standing right in front of me, staring at me blankly. The crescent moon blade in his hand was raised halfway through the air, emitting a chilling light. However, it stopped half a foot away from me, motionless.

The light was dim, and I couldn't make out the expression on his face. I wondered why he hadn't killed me.

The two of us looked at each other for a moment, and then we heard a loud noise, as if I had just alerted the other Turkic men, who were rushing to kill me, the Assassin.

And this Turk Prince in front of me wanted to kill me but didn't do so. Hesitating made me feel depressed, even if I wanted to run, I didn't dare to do so. If I don't run away, do I have to wait for death? Could it be that he wants to capture me alive?

But I am a weak woman. If he wanted to catch me, it would be as easy as turning his hand.

Seeing that the other Turks were about to arrive and we were still facing each other, I couldn't help but feel anxious. Just as I was about to ask, I suddenly felt a gust of wind in my ear.

The instant my feet left the ground, I was stunned for a moment. Who was it that had such good lightness skills? It wasn't until I was lifted up that I realized that there was still someone here.

Such a good lightness skill was almost on par with Ah He. Could it be that there was a hidden expert in the caravan? However, after thinking about it, he realized that it didn't seem like anyone else.

In a moment, his feet touched the ground. He landed in a small forest not far from the inn. There was an abandoned hut in the middle of the forest. Most likely, he had lived in a hunter's house before this.

"Thank you for saving us!" I said gratefully.

The person was slightly startled, but he didn't say anything. He searched for some straw and dried up wood in the hut, took out some fire, and started a small fire. By the light of the fire, I could see that the person who saved me was dressed in black and had a black veil over his face. His figure was vigorous, and after igniting the fire, he turned around and left without even glancing at me.

I opened my mouth to ask for his name, to give him a picture, but he performed a lightness skill and quickly disappeared into the night.

What a weirdo. "Perhaps he was a chivalrous man of the martial arts world, but most of the martial arts people of the world were solitary. Perhaps he was just trying to save me, and didn't have any other intentions.

I comforted myself by sitting by the fire and warming my numb hands. The bonfire was blazing and his body was gradually warming up.

I can't go back to the inn for now. I don't know if Little Fishy has succeeded or not, but with the huge commotion just now, the entire inn will probably be alarmed. I wonder if Little Fishy will be in a hurry if she can't find me.

But I didn't dare to go back. I had to wait here. Luckily, there was a fire. Otherwise, I would be frozen to death in this freezing weather.

However, he was even more confused, before the black clothed man took action to save me, the Turkic prince would definitely have a chance to kill me. But even after I was taken away by the black clothed man, he still stood there motionlessly, as if someone had pointed a finger at him.

I was even more worried. That Turkic was acting so arrogantly, and although I escaped, I didn't know how they would make things difficult for the shop owner.

It was dawn when we finally got close enough to see the Turkic horsemen leaving the inn at dawn. We tore a piece of cloth from our sleeves, gathered our hair into a man's hairstyle, and left the hut, making our way down the path to the inn.

The waiter just opened the door and saw me coming back from outside. His face was full of surprise as he said,

"When did the guest leave? This little one doesn't even know. "

Seeing that the waiter and the shopkeeper had their own responsibilities, I smiled and walked towards my room under the waiter's astonished gaze.

"Brother Xiao, you're finally back!" Fishy was anxiously pacing up and down in my guest room, talking to herself, saying something about "the benevolent Guanyin Bodhisattva". She was overjoyed to see me back. She held my hand tightly and looked me up and down.

"What happened? Did you get it? "Why are you in my room?" I asked.

"Of course I did, it's just that last night was too dangerous. After I put the medicine in, when I came back, I saw the Turkic people chasing me out, and I thought I had been found out, so I stayed in the stables in the backyard and didn't dare to come out. Oh, I'm not afraid of them, I'm worried that if they found out, the horses wouldn't be able to take the laxatives, and they wouldn't be able to …"

Little Fishy was old and noisy, so I had to put out my hand in a stalled position and ask:

"What happened to the Turkic?" It seems that it was after I left that Fishy saw the Turkic.

"There's a Turkic at the front with a knife who says to the people behind him, 'Don't worry, sir, it's not an assassin. It's just a cat.'" I was worried about you, so I came back quickly, but you were no longer on the tree, so I waited in the guest room all night. " Little Fishy's eyes were bloodshot. It seemed that she had not slept for the entire night.
