There were stars in the dark sky, the moon was as translucent as a silver plate, the breeze was blowing, and the leaves were rustling, it was such an intoxicating night.
Su Huan'er was dressed in night clothes, with her long hair neatly tied behind her head, and she quickly sneaked into the palace where Xuanyuan Qi lived.
Unexpectedly, there was no guard in the huge Fengyu Garden. The empty courtyard showed its loneliness even in such a night.
Without thinking much, Su Huan'er took out the dagger tied to her foot, quietly came to the window, pierced the thin window paper, and saw the man lying on the bed at a glance. After looking carefully,
No woman was found sleeping with him.
Carefully prying open the door, she tiptoed to the bed. In the faint moonlight, she could clearly see the white jade mask on the man's face that symbolized his identity. She must be mentally ill if she still wears this while sleeping.
.
With a wave of his left hand, a stream of white powder floated toward Xuanyuan Qi. It was an incense. Once a person inhales it, it is normal for him to be comatose for a day or two.
A few minutes passed, and the man on the bed was still breathing steadily and seemed to be still sleeping. Despite this, Su Huan'er was still very cautious and did not get too close to Xuanyuan Qi. Instead, she pointed the dagger in her hand at him with a little internal force.
The position of the heart was waved over...
"Who are you?"
An indifferent voice sounded faintly. When the dagger was about to sink into his body, Xuanyuan Qi on the bed turned over and dodged. He looked directly at the woman in front of him, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"When you die, go to the underworld and ask the Lord of Hell."
Su Huan'er did not dare to waste time, and the soft sword in her hand flashed with frightening silver light and attacked Xuanyuan Qi. In an instant, the sound of weapons clashing came from the palace with only the faint moonlight shining in, which was so loud in the silent night.
Extraordinarily penetrating.
Fortunately, the Wind and Rain Garden where Xuanyuan Qi lives is also an extremely remote place, and such a loud noise still did not attract anyone's attention. I am afraid that when the officers and soldiers responsible for patrolling came here to patrol this place, they just passed it by.
"Who asked you to assassinate me?"
After all, he was in his own palace, and his familiarity with the environment allowed Xuanyuan Qi to easily avoid Su Huan'er's attack. The words he said were indeed colder than the weather in December.
"Of course it's silver."
Su Huan'er didn't answer the question, but she was secretly frightened in her heart. The two had already exchanged nearly a hundred moves, and Xuanyuan Qi's skill was definitely not inferior to hers. If this delay continued, she would be the one to suffer in the end.
"very good."
Xuanyuan Qi's face under the white jade mask was full of gloom, wouldn't you say? Wait until he subdued her, and he would have many ways to make her speak.
Finding a woman to assassinate him was only possible thanks to the person behind the scenes.
