Chapter 165 Assassination Failed
The original body's body has been raised by Ripple. Not only did he use Qi to enter the body to eliminate the remaining poison, but he also performed preliminary body refining. Therefore, holding the Ripple of his own life sword, his whole aura changed, and he could kill with one sword. After hitting a man in black, he dodged a hidden arrow on one side of his body.
"Go and deal with the person who shot the secret arrow."
Lianyi said directly to Feng Shou who was standing next to him.
"yes!"
Feng Shou made a gesture, and someone secretly rushed towards the place where the hidden arrow had been placed.
Zhuoxiu Garden is originally a royal garden. In addition to the Queen's personal guards, there are some ordinary guards. Compared with this group of dead soldiers who kill without batting an eye, there is still a gap in combat power. Although the number of guards is superior, they are still in strangulation. The opponent is at a disadvantage because they are the defensive side after all.
Lianyi held his natal sword and killed the man in black with ease.
Also because she was dressed in red and was guarded in the center by royal guards, the moment she left the courtyard, she attracted people in black who came one after another.
In the eyes of the men in black, what's the point of killing those minions? The Queen is their main target, so the moment Ripple appears, she becomes the main target of the dead soldiers.
Because Lianyi had the natal sword in her hand and her own extraordinary strength, even if she became the main target of attack, she still followed her own rhythm and killed the man in black like chopping melons and vegetables.
Feng Shou's movements were not slow, but when she reached the back, she found that she didn't seem to have killed as many men in black as the Queen.
Just when Ripple cut the throat of a man in black, Xian Shijun also held his own spear and joined the Queen under the escort of the secret guard.
When Xian Shijun saw the queen in red, with a sword in hand, mercilessly killing the men in black around her, she breathed a sigh of relief, and then entered the battle circle with her gun in hand.
After half an hour of fighting, more than a hundred men in black who rushed in were eliminated, but there were also many casualties among the guards. Lianyi held the Thunder Yao Sword without a trace of blood and asked quietly:
"Where are the eldest princess and the children?"
"Queen, don't worry. The children have been sent into the secret passage to take shelter temporarily. The eldest princess is protecting Rong Shijun and her husband and is coming this way. The emperor's subordinates have sent people there, and there is no movement yet."
Feng Shou said with a frown.
"Arrange for someone to go take a look."
"yes!"
At this moment, there was a sound of horse hooves and the sound of boots rubbing against place names outside Zhuoxiu Garden. The second princess, wearing armor, rushed over with the imperial guards. When she saw Ripples, who was dressed in red, she had a somewhat expression on her face. Feeling awkward, he immediately took a step forward, knelt on one knee and said:
"My daughter, my rescue came too late! Please punish me, Queen Mother!"
Ripple glanced at the general following her, and then at the second princess kneeling in front of her. There was no expression on her face, but she looked at the second princess for a long time, so long that her back was soaked with sweat.
"Get up! What's your crime? The other party has been planning for a long time, just to catch us off guard. You're lucky to be here."
Lianyi said quietly after a long time, and then put his sword back into its scabbard with a "clang" sound.
"Yes, I will escort the Queen Mother back to the palace now."
The second princess immediately lowered her hands and said.
"Queen, something happened to your husband."
A guard ran up to Ripple and whispered.
"What's going on? What are the guards around him doing?"
"The imperial husband was stabbed, and almost all the guards around him were killed, so the man in black was given the opportunity to take advantage."
Konoe explained in a low voice.
"Father. What's wrong with father?"
The second princess's face turned pale and she seemed to be frightened.
"You come with me to see your father."
Lianyi ordered directly.
"yes!"
The second princess then stood up, followed Lianyi, and hurriedly went to the courtyard of the imperial concubine Zhao next to her. When they were at the door, they met the eldest princess and Rong Shijun. Although they were a little embarrassed, there were no wounds on their bodies. Or blood stains.
"Mother Queen, are you okay?"
"You can't die. You keep your father safe and I'll go see the royal husband."
Lianyi glanced at the eldest princess and Rong Shijun, who was coughing desperately next to her, and said softly.
"Yes, I will take good care of Mr. Rong Shijun."
The eldest princess moved out of the way with discernment.
The second princess came to the imperial husband's courtyard with an anxious look on her face. She saw corpses all over the courtyard and the servants kneeling on the ground crying. She suddenly had a bad feeling.
The second princess entered the courtyard first and saw overturned tables, chairs, tea sets, and blood on the ground. Meiyuan was taking the pulse of the imperial husband Zhao who was lying on the bed, and the imperial husband lying on the bed looked pale at this time. Gray, with no trace of blood on her lips, and a thick gauze wrapped around her chest, with blood oozing from the gauze.
"Father!"
The second princess exclaimed and threw herself directly in front of the bed. Her eyes were red, and she held the pale and transparent fingers of the imperial concubine Zhao and asked in a trembling voice:
"Mei Yuanzheng, how is my father? How is he?"
The silver-haired Mei Yuanzheng sighed and said in a deep voice:
"You should talk to your father! See if he has anything to tell you."
This sentence almost sentenced the emperor's husband to death. The second emperor's daughter was stunned on the spot. She didn't expect that she was just acting out a successful rescue and a painful trick, but now she really got her father involved.
"Father, open your eyes and look, it's me, I'm Huan'er!"
Tears finally fell from her eyes, and the second princess cried bitterly.
At this moment, Meiyuan, with the help of the medicine boy, walked up to Lianyi and said with shame:
"Empress, this old minister is incompetent. The emperor's husband was heartbroken by the man in black, and there is no way to save him. The old minister only used purple ginseng slices to hang his life. It is estimated that he only has one stick of incense. If you have any questions, please speak to the emperor as soon as possible. Husband said."
"I know, the hospital is in trouble! This place has suffered a big change, and we need the hospital to bring people to treat the wounded."
"This is the duty of the old minister. It's not hard work!"
Just before the men in black rushed in, Meiyuan was sent directly to the rafter by a secret guard. She stayed on the rafter obediently and remained motionless until the sound of killing disappeared and the secret guard came to ask her to treat her injuries. The royal husband was lowered from the beam.
When he went out, he saw the pale-faced medicine boy. The little medicine boy was also smart and knew that he was small and could not outrun the death warriors who specialized in killing people. He messed up the room directly, opened the doors and windows, and then slipped under the bed, causing Under the impression that this house had been visited by dead soldiers, Gou waited until reinforcements arrived and climbed out.
Seeing that her little medicine boy was fine, Mei Yuanzheng and her people rushed to rescue the emperor's husband. However, the death warrior's sword was so cruel and accurate that she could do nothing. Fortunately, the queen did not blame her, so she took him with him. He took his little medicine boy to treat other injured patients.
At this time, the atmosphere in the room was very heavy. Amidst the shouts of the second princess, Zhao finally opened his eyes and looked at his daughter with tears on her face. The corners of his mouth twitched, as if he had a thousand words to say. To say it, it finally turned into one sentence:
"Huan'er, don't cry! Father has a few words to say to your mother."
