"Sir, thank you for your help. Can you tell me your name?"
When she saw Chen Yangfei landing in the alleyway below and walking away, the princess looked anxious and shouted in the distance.
But she has no cultivation, and without the help of star power, her voice cannot travel far at all.
Chen Yang's figure disappeared in the alleyway in an instant and was nowhere to be found.
The princess frowned, a look of regret appeared on her pretty face, and sighed: "It's such a pity that others came to help, but they didn't even know their names."
The only guard left beside him said: "Princess, this is what their secret guards should do, why should you worry about it."
"He is not a secret guard."
The princess shook her head, turned to look at Marquis Yongning, who was flying on the roof, and said with red eyes: "Uncle."
"Lianxin, are you okay?"
Marquis Yongning looked worried and asked quickly.
He loves his little niece who cannot practice cultivation the most. If his little niece has any trouble in his house, he will never be able to forgive himself in this life.
"I'm fine."
Princess Lianxin shook her head, pointed to the broken corpses on the ground, and said with tears in her eyes: "But they... are dead."
There were just a few guards, but Marquis Yongning didn't take it to heart and immediately arranged for people to dispose of the body.
"Son."
At this moment, the guard leader who had just chased him back came back with a look of panic on his face.
She flew down on the roof and saw that Marquis Yongning was there. She bowed quickly, then knelt down to Lianxin and blamed herself: "I fell into the assassin's trick of "Tiao Hu Leaving the Mountain" in my humble position, please punish me princess."
Lian Xin was about to say that she was fine, but Yong Ning Hou said angrily: "How can you be a guard like you? Hmph, hurry up and send Lian Xin back to the palace with me. When she is safe, I will settle the score with you."
"Yes, Lord Marquis." The guard leader nodded quickly.
The group of people headed to the palace in a mighty manner. Although they knew that the possibility of being assassinated again was very low, they were still cautious.
Lianxin is the most beloved child of the current emperor, and also the favorite descendant of the old man of the Yan family. Although he cannot practice cultivation, his status is high, so naturally nothing can go wrong.
What happened tonight will cause uproar in Liangdu tomorrow, and the royal family won't let it go until the assassin is found.
But Marquis Yongning couldn't figure it out. Dayan Kingdom, or the Yan family, had no enmity with anyone, so who wanted to kill Lianxin?
Moreover, what's the use of killing Lianxin, a person who can't practice?
Unable to figure it out, Marquis Yongning stopped thinking about it and just wanted to send Yan Lianxin back to the palace quickly to avoid any further mistakes.
…
Bang.
Yan Ting shattered the table in front of him with a palm, and a cold murderous intention flashed deep in his eyes, and said in a deep voice: "The assassination failed, the guards around Lian Xin will definitely be strengthened, and there might be someone secretly watching, who wants to kill
It's difficult for her.
If you can't kill her, once the banquet of heroes is over, the Crown Prince will give her the key to the treasure house. By then, all the secret guards will be under her command, and all the treasures will be in her hands. She will become the most powerful person in the Yan family.
.
This cripple cannot cultivate at all, so why would he be favored by his father and the Crown Prince?
If she dies, all of this will be mine."
Speaking of being angry, Yan Ting clenched his fists and his eyes were scarlet, like a beast that chooses people to devour.
"Your Highness, please calm down. It is a despicable dereliction of duty."
Two men immediately knelt down. It was the assassin who had lured the tiger away from the mountain before, and the young man who had followed him into the Hou Mansion.
Yan Ting suppressed his anger, raised his hand to signal the two of them to get up, and said with a sinister look: "We have triple guarantees for this operation. It should have been foolproof. But now that it failed, it has nothing to do with you. If you want to blame it, blame that person who was killed halfway.
Come out boy."
The assassin who lured the enemy said: "Your Highness, how should you deal with that boy who ruined your big job?"
"I will definitely kill him." Yan Ting said coldly.
The young assassin looked solemn and said: "Your Highness, that person is at the ninth level of the domain, but he has the combat power to defeat me. I'm afraid he is not an ordinary person."
Yan Ting said in a deep voice: "You are not an ordinary person, so you can investigate. In all likelihood, he is here to attend this banquet of heroes. You have seen his appearance, and you will send people to search the city tomorrow to find him."
I will kill it with my own hands."
"Yes, Your Highness."
The two subordinates responded in unison.
The young man said: "When Lianxin returns to the palace, there will definitely be a massive search in Liangdu. Our people are among them, and we can just find the person who hinders His Highness's important affairs."
"You guys have to figure it out. I have to go back to the palace as soon as possible, pay some attention to Princess Lianxin, and then go to Yuquan Tower. That girl Hua Ling'er is still waiting for me."
Yan Ting snorted coldly and left first.
…
"Assassinating a princess is such a wild way. Aren't you afraid of death?"
Chen Yang walked on the street and thought to himself: "However, I don't know what the other party is. He glanced at me before leaving. Is he not going to hate me and target me?"
Chen Yang shook his head. Although he knew he was causing trouble, he did not regret saving the princess.
Walking along the street, there is a 300-meter-wide river in front of you. The river is full of flower boats, the lights are bright, and there are people drinking and drinking, laughing and cursing.
And by the river, there is a tall restaurant called Yuquan Tower.
There was no enthusiastic sound coming from Yuquan Tower. Compared with the noisy flower boats with gongs and drums outside, it seemed like a quiet place.
Chen Yang glanced at Yuquan Tower and saw that the guests coming and going were all elegant and distinguished, and most of them were of high cultivation.
Although I didn’t see the Hexing Realm, I saw a lot of the Zunyu Realm.
It seems that this Yuquan Restaurant must be a good high-end restaurant.
The incident with the cannon made Chen Yang feel melancholy. When he saw the rather stylish Yuquan Tower, Chen Yang walked straight in, just to relax.
"Please come in, guest officer."
The waiter greeted Chen Yang with a flattering smile on his face and said, "Sir, is there any girl you like?"
Chen Yang laughed dumbly and thought for a long time. This Yuquan Tower is also a brothel.
"Find a quiet place and I'll drink." Chen Yang said with a smile.
The waiter raised his eyebrows with an "I understand" expression and walked inside with him.
Chen Yang observed it. The first place he entered the courtyard was a place to drink flower wine, but most of them were literati. Compared with the flower boats outside, they were a little more stylish and less passionate.
The second time we entered the courtyard, it was even more elegant. Those women with excellent looks were not only beautiful, but also had high levels of cultivation. They chatted about all kinds of things with the guests. They were quite elegant and didn't feel like women in a brothel at all.
When we entered the third courtyard, it was quiet, with only melodious music coming from a dimly lit room. Someone was obviously playing music inside.
There is a stage outside the room, so why should we hide in the room when we are not on the stage?
Chen Yang felt that this Yuquan Tower was being mysterious, and the waiter had already invited Chen Yang to sit in the private room on the second floor surrounding the stage.
The private room is quite interesting, you can see the outside but not the inside.
The waiter said respectfully to Chen Yang: "Sir, you must have come here for Miss Hua Ling'er. Please wait a moment, she will go on stage to play music soon."
"Isn't she playing music in the house?"
Chen Yang pointed to the room where the music was coming from.
