Hu Xiaotian said coldly: "Then I won't be able to sleep peacefully? I have to beware of someone harming me every day.∈↗,"
Xiyan giggled and said: "How could I let it go? Besides, you are so capable. Even if I wanted to, I couldn't hurt you. Now even the disguise technique has reached this level. If I hadn't heard your voice, even I would have been almost killed by you."
Fooled me." A pair of beautiful eyes stared at Hu Xiaotian's face and said, "With a sly eyebrow and rat eyes, this mask really suits you." She thought Hu Xiaotian was wearing a human skin mask.
Hu Xiaotian couldn't help but feel a little proud. It seemed that his transformation was quite successful. If his figure and voice hadn't betrayed him, Xiyan might not have recognized him. He was about to further question Zhou Wang Long Yefang's whereabouts when he suddenly heard
There were panicked shouts outside.
"Catch the assassin! Catch the assassin!" The voices kept coming and going, and in an instant the entire commander's residence became abuzz with people.
Hu Xiaotian was stunned for a while. He was quite careful when he came in. Could it be possible that someone would see through him like this?
Xi Yan said: "Something happened!"
Hu Xiaotian was worried that she was cheating, so he still didn't let go. Xi Yan said: "Let me go, something must have happened!"
Hu Xiaotian then let her go. Xi Yan found a human skin mask and quickly put it on, opened the door and walked out. She was obviously in a panic and even Hu Xiaotian couldn't care about it.
Hu Xiaotian also followed her and walked out. As soon as the two of them went out, they saw a huge white snow sculpture swooping down from above their heads. Among the chaotic crowd below, a gray figure suddenly ejected onto the snow sculpture. The snow sculpture carried
Then the man flapped his wings and soared into the air.
Xi Yan said angrily: "Where to go!" She raised her right hand and shot several cold rays towards the snow sculpture. The man in gray on the back of the snow sculpture waved his long sword, trapping all the steel needles that Xi Yan shot into it, and the snow sculpture's
Speeding like the wind and lightning, it flew into the air in an instant.
Everyone below fired arrows upwards, but the snow sculpture moved too quickly and quickly flew out of their shooting range. In an instant, it turned into a small white dot in the air.
The banquet hall was in chaos. Hu Xiaotian took advantage of the chaos and was about to leave, but saw Li Honghan rushing out with blood on his hands. He shouted: "Go and invite the doctor quickly, go and invite the doctor!"
Hu Xiaotian was startled in his heart. If someone else was injured, Li Honghan would never show such panic. Could it be that Li Tianheng was assassinated? At this time, the entire Marshal's Mansion was in the most chaotic period, and all the guests fled the scene one after another.
Another voice was heard saying: "Seal all exits of the Commander's Mansion, no one is allowed to leave at will!" The person who gave the order was Zhang Ziqian, which confirmed Hu Xiaotian's guess just now.
Although Zhang Ziqian issued an order that all guests should not leave at will, many people still left, and the scene was temporarily out of control. Hu Xiaotian did not dare to stay for a long time, and took advantage of the fact that the Marshal's Mansion was still under complete lockdown.
The crowd mixed out of the handsome manor.
It was not difficult for Hu Xiaotian to escape from this blocked area after leaving the Commander's Mansion. He did not dare to return directly to Xuanning Posthouse. Since Li Tianheng had already thought of imprisoning him, he would take action against his companions.
.
The air in Xizhou became a lot more tense. The streets and alleys were full of soldiers and horses, and a comprehensive search was launched in the city. For a while, Xizhou was in a state of panic and people were panicked. Hu Xiaotian did not dare to move around to avoid being noticed. Until
At dusk, we arrived in front of Zhongxiang Building as promised. The news at the Marshal's Mansion was very tightly sealed. No exact information about who was assassinated has been revealed yet. However, we can only deduce from the suddenly serious and tense atmosphere in the entire Xizhou City that it must be someone.
A big shot was assassinated, most likely Li Tianheng.
Liang Yinghao had been waiting for him here for a long time, but he couldn't bear Hu Xiaotian's current appearance. Hu Xiaotian first observed the surrounding situation. After making sure that there was no suspicious person around, he walked over to meet him.
Liang Yinghao only recognized Hu Xiaotian's identity when he heard his voice. He was also surprised when he saw Hu Xiaotian's current appearance. Hu Xiaotian's actions were always unexpected by others. No wonder he would let him leave first. It turned out that he had
With such a superb disguise technique, if Hu Xiaotian hadn't taken the initiative to recognize him, he wouldn't have been able to recognize him even if he was face to face.
The two came to a nearby tavern and chose a seat by the window to sit down so they could observe what was going on outside. After ordering, Liang Yinghao lowered his voice and said to Hu Xiaotian: "They have moved in advance and are currently living on Xiangyang Street."
Inside a mansion."
Hu Xiaotian frowned, wondering how they could find a place to stay so quickly.
Liang Yinghao explained: "It was Miss Yan who provided the accommodation."
Hu Xiaotian nodded. The gang of horse bandits from Tianlang Mountain have a wide distribution in Xichuan. It seems that their foothold in Xizhou is not just Qingyun Villa. He learned that all his subordinates have been safely transferred and there will be no more for the time being.
There was no danger, so Hu Xiaotian felt relieved.
At this time, the waiter brought the wine and food. The two of them were hungry after running around for a day. Liang Yinghao picked up the jug and poured a glass of wine for Hu Xiaotian, and asked in a low voice: "What happened at the Shuai Mansion? There is everywhere in Xizhou.
All the soldiers were searching, which made people panic."
Hu Xiaotian whispered: "There was an assassination attempt. The assassin escaped immediately after he succeeded. We still don't know who was assassinated."
Liang Yinghao said: "What is the master planning to do? When will he leave Xizhou?"
Hu Xiaotian drank the wine in the glass and said, "No rush, you go back first and let them calm down for a while. I want to find out what happened and then make plans."
Liang Yinghao said: "Palace Master, the situation is very tight now, so you need to be more careful in everything."
Hu Xiaotian nodded and said: "Don't worry, I have a number of answers in my mind."
The two ate in a hurry and parted outside the gate of Zhongxiang Tower. After some careful consideration, Hu Xiaotian decided to go to the post house where the Dayong Mission was located to inquire about the situation.
As night fell, King Xue Shengjing of Yongyan and the eldest princess Xue Lingjun just returned to the post house. Both of their expressions looked a little solemn. When they got off the car, they both noticed that many people had been arranged around the post house.
The euphemistic name of the military alert was to protect their safety, but in fact it was to keep them under close surveillance.
There was a trace of indifference on Xue Shengjing's chubby face. After entering the gate of the post house, he said to Guo Zhenhai, who was responsible for their safety: "Intensify the alert. No outsiders are allowed to enter the inner garden tonight."
"yes!"
The brother and sister walked along the rain-covered corridor of the post house towards the inner garden where they rested. Xue Lingjun let out a long sigh and said, "I wonder if Li Tianheng is dead or alive?"
Xue Shengjing's small eyes revealed a sinister and cunning look: "The Marshal's Mansion is so tightly guarded that assassins can sneak in. Li Tianheng is known as the Overlord of Xichuan and has many masters under him. It seems like this now."
Xue Lingjun said: "How do you say this, Second Emperor Brother?"
Xue Shengjing said: "I always feel suspicious about what happened today, but I can't figure out what is wrong."
Xue Lingjun said: "Do you suspect that Li Tianheng deliberately deceived and staged a show of being assassinated in front of all the guests?"
Xue Shengjing narrowed his eyes: "It would be understandable if this is really the case. He can declare to the outside world that Emperor Dakang wants to kill him. This incident can arouse the hatred of the Xichuan soldiers and civilians."
Xue Lingjun nodded and said: "If everything is really as the emperor thinks, then Li Tianheng can be regarded as a powerful figure of the generation."
Xue Shengjing said: "After all, paper can't cover up the fire. They can hide it from the people of Xichuan, but they can't hide it from our eyes."
Xue Lingjun smiled and said: "In short, it is a good thing for Dayong. Isn't the mission of the Second Emperor Brother this time to destroy the possibility of Xichuan returning to Dakang and cut off Dakang's retreat?"
Xue Shengjing laughed secretly: "But I don't know what Hu Xiaotian's current situation is like?"
Hearing him mention Hu Xiaotian, Xue Lingjun couldn't help but frown. When he saw Hu Xiaotian leaving the banquet in a hurry, he already guessed that he was in trouble. Not long after Hu Xiaotian left, Li Tianheng was assassinated, and all these charges
I'm afraid it will fall on him, and Hu Xiaotian will be in big trouble this time.
Xue Shengjing sighed and said: "I really want to help him. After all, we are sworn brothers. I can't bear to watch him go to a dead end. It's a pity that this kid is too wary and can't see the current situation clearly, and he is now in this situation."
This predicament is our own fault.”
Xue Lingjun said: "He is superior to others in terms of martial arts and scheming. Maybe he has his own way to escape."
Xue Shengjing shook his head and said: "No matter how powerful a person's martial arts is, he will never be able to defeat thousands of troops. Although he is smart, he still has weaknesses after all."
Xue Lingjun said with great interest: "I would like to hear what his weakness is?"
Xue Shengjing said: "Not cruel enough, but also lustful and passionate." When he said this, he glanced at his sister intentionally or unintentionally.
Xue Lingjun smiled sweetly and said: "I think he is quite determined and can hold his own at critical moments."
Xue Shengjing said: "That's because he hasn't met a woman who made him fall in love!" The seemingly unintentional words hit Xue Lingjun's heart like a whip with thorns, making Xue Lingjun's heart drip with blood. She didn't want to
I believe that the second brother made an honest mistake. What he said is what he meant. Xue Lingjun has always been proud of his beauty and believes that few men can resist his own charm. However, he has been repeatedly frustrated in front of Hu Xiaotian. This guy
Xue Lingjun is obviously a passionate person, but he doesn't like himself, which makes Xue Lingjun puzzled.
Xue Lingjun's pretty face suddenly turned cold, and he yawned and said, "After a tiring day, I really need to have a good sleep."
Xue Shengjing said: "It's a long night, and I don't know what will happen in Xizhou City."
Xue Lingjun said: "Whatever happened has nothing to do with me. I originally wanted to come here and have a good trip, but now I am no longer in the mood."
Xue Shengjing looked at his sister's retreating back, but there was a malicious look in his small eyes. (To be continued...)
