Chapter Thirteen: You Can't Save Yourself, You Need to Save Yourself
Leng Junyi's eyebrows were tightened and his voice was as cold as an arrow, "Don't be so self-righteous! But an ordinary civilian girl has no place on the stage at all! Do you think I will forget my responsibilities for her? Don't think that just grabbing a woman is enough.
If you can threaten me, my duty is to catch you. If you don’t believe me, try killing her!"
"Yeah?"
In his voice, Xue Xichen felt her neck hurt again, with a burning pain. In her ears was the man's cold voice, "In that case, let's give it a try!"
Leng Junyi's expression suddenly changed, becoming even colder and colder. His footsteps moved, and the killer grabbed Xue Xichen and pressed the edge of the sword tightly against his hand, moving in Leng Junyi's direction.
Leng Junyi's face twitched and tensed, "Tell me! What terms do you want to negotiate?"
The killer Jiejie smiled and said, "While those guards haven't arrived yet! You take ten steps back and make room for me to escape. Naturally, I won't hurt this woman."
He wants Leng Junyi to let him go?
Leng Junyi stood there motionless, staring at him closely, not letting go of any movement.
The shouts gradually gathered in this direction, and the killer began to become a little anxious, and his hands tightened tighter, "I'm going to die and pull someone on my back. You just protected me and you have done a good job. You won't be responsible if you don't catch me."
, this deal is a good deal for you.”
This guy was so preoccupied with negotiating terms with Leng Junyi that he really completely ignored her! Did he really think that she was a weak woman with no power to restrain her?
"If I were you, I would choose to let her go and take her hostage." A gentle voice came from behind, as calm as ever, "You don't want to mess with this woman!"
Mu Qingfei?
Why did he come out at this time?
However, these are not important anymore. The most important thing is - this bastard hurt her, and his death is not far away!
"You should listen to Mu Xiang! You can't take just any hostage!"
It was too late, but it was too soon. Xue Xichen's attack was as fast as lightning. He leaned back and hung his entire weight on the killer's arm. The killer hesitated slightly, and Xue Xichen took hold of the killer's sword at that moment.
With his wrist, he hit the killer's face hard with his back elbow, grabbed the long sword, and the cold edge rubbed across Xue Xichen's cheek, bringing out a wisp of blood.
"Xichen——"
Leng Junyi quickly jumped up and held Xue Xichen's shoulders. The long sword in Xue Xichen's hand was already placed on the killer's neck. She looked back and smiled proudly at Leng Junyi, "Brother Leng, how about it, I don't have it."
Disappoint you!"
"Xichen, your face..."
Leng Junyi looked at the slowly seeping streak of blood on Xue Xichen's cheek in shock, and said eagerly: "Xichen, you are injured!"
"Huh?"
Xue Xichen touched her cheek, lowered her hand, and saw the bright red on her fingertips. She couldn't help but frown, and muttered: "Damn it! This time my appearance is ruined!"
"Xichen..."
"Brother Leng, I'll leave this assassin to you! I'd better go back to the palace first!"
No! The wounds on the face must be treated in time! The wounds on the neck must also be treated immediately! Otherwise, what will happen if the face is really ruined!
Mu Qingfei came from behind and asked with concern: "Aunt Xue, do you need Qingfei to send you off?"
"I don't dare bother Mu Xiang. It's better for Mu Xiang to go and be a witness for Brother Leng, so that Brother Leng can do business easily! By the way! By the way, let me tell my senior brother that I will go back to the palace first!"
After saying that, Xue Xichen left the two of them behind and turned to leave.
…
Back at the palace, Xue Xichen washed off the heavy makeup on her face, frowned at the stunning red color on her fair skin, and felt angry in her heart! Damn Fenglong Xiang! It was because of him that she was almost destroyed again.
Yes! Fortunately, the wound is not deep. Apply some medicine and it will heal in a few days!
She has already been disfigured once, and she absolutely does not want to experience a life of disfigurement a second time!
Take out the ointment and apply it carefully on the wound. The coolness refreshes the heart, and the refreshing fragrance is refreshing. After wiping the wound on the face and neck, it feels slightly cool but does not feel painful. Send by Xiao Liuyue
This box of her ice skin cream is really a good product, it’s so easy to use!
There was a knock at the door, and then Xiao Liuyue's urgent inquiry was heard: "Xichen, are you there? Is the wound serious?"
"Brother, why are you back?"
Xue Xichen was surprised and stood up to open the door. Xiao Liuyue suddenly held Xue Xichen's arms and looked closely at the small wounds on her face. She couldn't help but raise her palms and caress them, "Xichen...does it hurt..."
Anger filled his eyes in an instant, and he wished he could slash the person who hurt her with thousands of knives, crushing his bones and scattering ashes!
"Senior brother, I have applied medicine to the flesh wound!"
Xue Xichen backed away slightly, avoiding Xiao Liuyue's ambiguous intimacy. She raised a relaxed smile and said to Xiao Liuyue: "Senior brother, I'm afraid Fenglong Xiang will be displeased if you rush back before the banquet is over?"
Xiao Liuyue said: "Leng Junyi brought the assassin back and said that you were injured by the assassin. I didn't know the extent of your injury. How could I feel relieved? So I said I would go back home to help you heal your injuries and left the meeting early."
"Ah! Brother Leng is exaggerating!" Xue Xichen pursed her lips, "I just had a skin injury, it's okay!"
"They said it wouldn't be a problem!" Xiao Liuyue said distressedly, "The injury is on the cheek. If it disfigures the face, what should we do?"
Xue Xichen smiled and said: "Senior brother, is it possible that you don't have confidence in the ointment you prepared?"
"Of course not!"
"Okay! Senior brother, don't worry! Look, I'm not fine now. I can walk and jump around. Don't be scared by Brother Leng."
"Xichen, I care about you!"
"Senior brother, I know! Look, I'm really fine now!"
Looking up and down carefully, it was confirmed that Xue Xichen had no other injuries except those few flesh wounds. Xiao Liuyue felt a little at ease. He helped Xue Xichen back to the room and sat down, and said with concern: "Xichen, these days
Don’t eat eggs, it’s not good for wound healing.”
"Okay!" Xue Xichen responded, looking at Xiao Liuyue with bright eyes and asked: "Brother, do you think this assassin is a real assassin or a fake assassin? Could it be that Feng Longxiang deliberately found someone to pretend to be someone else, intending to frame others?
?”
Xiao Liuyue pondered and said: "I don't know the specific situation, so I dare not make unreasonable judgments. If I were an assassin and I wanted to assassinate the emperor, I would not choose to do it in a place with dense guards like the palace, let alone a banquet.
In such a heavily guarded place. If this assassin is not a novice who was blinded by hatred and got hot-headed for a while, he is from the Fenglong Xiang sect, and his purpose is self-evident."
"Who does Feng Long Xiang want to test? Feng Qingge? Feng Biqing? Leng Junyi? Mu Qingfei?"
"At that time, Leng Junyi was closest to Feng Longxiang, and the guards in the palace were mobilized by Leng Junyi. It is very likely that Feng Longxiang was testing Leng Junyi."
"It's unlucky for that assassin to meet me!" Xue Xichen curled her lips and said, "Feng Longxiang must be very disappointed not to get the result he desired, and he also lost a general! In the end, he deserves it if he steals the chicken but loses the credit.
!”
"Xichen, don't get too happy too soon! Things won't end like this! There is a turbulent undercurrent in the capital and the situation is complicated. We must be careful!"
"Senior brother, don't worry! Xichen knows!"
Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! When soldiers come, they will block it, and when water comes, the earth will cover them up! No matter what tricks Feng Long Xiang plays, they will just take the move!
Fenglongxiang, I will never lose to you this time!
