The Assassination

After hearing what Mo Xiuyao said, Ye Li was silent for a long time before she said slowly, "Doesn't marrying into the Dingguo Palace prove how courageous I am?" If it were another girl, she would have just been divorced by the Li prince and then betrothed to the Ding prince, and she would have just hanged herself with a white silk. This girl herself might have been enough to prove that she was quite courageous, right?

"Ah——" A child's cry came from not far away. Princess Changle was stunned for a moment and suddenly shouted, "It's Zhenning! Princess Ding..." Mo Xiuyao, who was sitting on the side, waved his hand, and two secret guards left the battlefield without a trace and flew quickly to the place where the cry came from. Ye Li frowned at Concubine Liu sitting next to the emperor, and then

Even they heard Princess Zhenning's cry. She didn't believe that Concubine Liu didn't hear it. But Concubine Liu's expression was still calm as usual. Even the Queen frowned and looked over there for a few times. As a biological mother, she seemed to have heard nothing. In the past, she only thought that Concubine Liu was cold and innocent, but now she couldn't help but

I feel a little disappointed. What on earth is going on in the mind of a woman who doesn't even care about the safety of her own daughter?

Surrounded by guards, the queen said a few words to Mo Jingqi with a sullen face. Mo Jingqi raised his head and looked over to them. Seeing Mo Xiuyao and Ye Li sitting calmly on the side, his eyes darkened slightly and he said loudly: "Prince Ding, please bring my second princess back." Mo Xiuyao smiled faintly, stood up, smiled at Ye Li, and flew away.

Go out of the building. It's okay for Mo Xiuyao to sit there and not take action, but if the emperor personally asked and he still didn't take action, it would be unreasonable. The queen obviously didn't expect Mo Jingqi to ask Mo Xiuyao to save people. She was stunned at first and looked in Ye Li's direction with some worry. Princess Ding, her daughter is still young, if

How could she feel at ease without Prince Ding protecting her? The Queen looked at Concubine Liu, who was sitting there calmly, and for the first time, she frowned at her. "Zhen Ning was captured by an assassin, aren't you worried at all, Concubine Liu?"

Concubine Liu Gui calmly withdrew her gaze from the building and said calmly, "With so many guards in the palace, they will surely rescue Zhen Ning safely. Sorry to have caused the Empress to worry."

The queen was so angry that she snorted and stopped talking, just paying attention to Ye Li and Chang Le. |i^With the emperor's temper, he would never agree to her sending someone to pick up Chang Le, even if the one in the chaos was his biological daughter.

As soon as Mo Xiuyao left, the assassins who were besieging this side attacked more fiercely. It was obvious that these assassins had held back because they were worried that Mo Xiuyao hadn't made a move yet. Now that Mo Xiuyao was gone, they naturally took advantage of the opportunity to deal with the enemy before he came back. A black-clad assassin was thrown to Ye Li's feet, and Princess Changle couldn't help but look at him with a fierce look on her face.

She couldn't help but scream. Ye Li frowned, stood up and said: "An Er, Qing Luan, take two people to protect Princess Chang Le." An Er looked at Ye Li disapprovingly, and Princess Chang Le also grabbed Ye Li's clothes tightly and refused to let go. Although she was still young, her intuition was better than that of ordinary people because she grew up in the palace. She felt

Very relieved. Ye Li pulled her hand away and said softly: "My dear child, it is dangerous to follow me. Follow them to a safe place." Princess Changle blinked and looked at her, "Princess Ding, come with me..."

Ye Li smiled faintly and shook her head, glancing at Yelu Ye who was fighting with ease. As long as she moved, Yelu Ye would definitely lead the assassin to her again. In this case, it would be better to stand here and deal with all the changes. "Princess, be obedient and don't let your mother worry about it, okay?" Princess Changle hesitated and glanced at the man staring at her nervously not far away.

Looking at his queen, he finally nodded obediently.

During the fight, Yeluye looked back at Ye Li who was still standing not far away, raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The princess is indeed very courageous."

Ye Li leaned against the pillar and said calmly, "I would be happier if Prince Yelu didn't lead people here. In fact, I am so scared that my legs are weak and I can't move."

Yeluye was exposed in front of others, but he didn't show any indifference. He smiled and said, "The princess found out. I just wanted to be a hero and save the beauty. I believe the princess won't blame me, right?" Hearing this, An San raised his eyebrows and grabbed a lying knife with one hand and pushed it forward.

The flashing blade stabbed straight at Yeluye. Hearing the sound of the wind, Yeluye turned around and kicked the out-of-control assassin away. "Hey...be careful."

An San raised his hand expressionlessly and apologized insincerely, "It was a mistake. Please forgive me, Prince."

Yeluye raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "The princess is surrounded by talented people. This prince will not be surprised."

"Yeluye! Go to hell!" It seemed that such a careless fight finally hurt the assassin's self-esteem. With a roar, several men in black rushed towards Yeluye at the same time, and the attack was so fierce that it was shocking. Yeluye finally began to cheer up and deal with it. Ye Li leaned against the pillar and looked at the chaos around him. He showed great contempt for Mo Jingqi who was surrounded by a lot of guards. The ministers were killed by assassins like this, and as a monarch, he actually did not move half of the guards and refused to let them leave his side to deal with the assassins. It was also said that Mo Jingqi was good at controlling people's hearts. Now it seems that he forgot everything when facing a life-and-death moment, even though it was not a life-and-death moment at all.

There were several clear whooshes, and several more men in black rushed into the building from outside. Ye Li couldn't help but frown. The palace was heavily guarded. How capable were these assassins to sneak into the palace on such a large scale? And the palace guards, it had been nearly a quarter of an hour and not a single guard had arrived! Faintly feeling something was wrong, Ye Li began to move out of the building without a trace. A strange voice was faintly heard in the air. Ye Li narrowed her eyes and said in a sharp voice: "Hurry up! They are going to set fire to the building!" As soon as the words fell, An Er in the corner had already grabbed Princess Changle and flew out. Qingluan nodded to Ye Li and followed her out. An San, who was beside Ye Li, repelled an assassin with one palm, grabbed Ye Li and jumped out of the Zhaixing Tower.

In a volley of arrows, he found a hidden place to stand firm as soon as he landed. When he looked back, the first and second floors of the Zhaixing Building were already on fire. Apparently, there were rockets in the arrows, and what Ye Li smelled on the upper floor was some fuel. Moreover, it was the beginning of June, and the Zhaixing Building was made of wood and painted, so it could be said that it would catch fire at a touch. Everyone was on the third floor, and once the fire started, the already chaotic Zhaixing Building was filled with screams for help, "An San, help!"

"Princess, we didn't bring many people into the palace." An San frowned.

Ye Li said in a deep voice: "Don't worry about me, save people first." Those who are qualified to ascend the Star Picking Tower today are all important officials of the court. Not to mention that most of them are killed or injured, even if a few of them are injured, it will be troublesome.

An San had no choice but to wave his hand and let the secret guards who followed him go upstairs to rescue people. Soon, Mo Jingqi and the concubines were rescued one by one by the guards. The guards who were originally surrounding Mo Jingqi and were useless immediately faced the assassins outside. No one knew how many assassins there were in the dark. The concubines and princes of high status were fine, as they were protected by people. As for the concubines who were not ranked, no one would care if they died. The queen looked around as soon as she landed. She finally saw Ye Li and ran over without caring about anything else, "Princess... Changle..." Ye Li said, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Princess Changle has been sent to a safe place." The queen breathed a sigh of relief and smiled lightly, "Thank you..."

"Be careful!" Ye Li pulled the queen away and pushed her towards the guards who followed. She turned her head to avoid the knife light and slid past the assassin with agility. The assassin, who was determined to succeed, felt a chill in his chest. He looked down in shock and saw blood gushing out of his chest. Ye Li turned around and said to the guards, "Take the queen to a safe place." The phoenix embroidered with gold thread on the queen's clothes was too dazzling. As soon as she landed, two arrows greeted her. After instructing the guards, Ye Li flashed her hand and blended into the night again, staring at everything in front of her with calm eyes.

"Princess Ding is indeed very agile. I admire you." A voice sounded beside him with a hint of ridicule.

Ye Li narrowed her eyes and elbowed the person who suddenly appeared beside her. The person was obviously not an easy person, and he raised his hand to grab her arm. Ye Li sneered, quickly turned his head and drew a dagger from his sleeve and slashed at the person. The person uttered a "hey" and moved aside. In the blink of an eye, Ye Li had kicked him and clearly saw that the person in front of him was Yelu Ye, who had run away in the chaos. Yelu Ye raised his hand to block it, but then let go because the dagger in Ye Li's hand had already stabbed. Yeluye turned around and smiled helplessly, "Princess Ding, do we still want to fight among ourselves when we are facing a powerful enemy?" He had seen many women who knew Kung Fu. All women in Beirong, young or old, knew a few moves, but this was the first time he had seen a woman with such powerful moves. She was no less powerful than a specially trained assassin. Yeluye finally decided that now was not the right time to provoke her. If they fought and someone else took advantage of the situation, it would be a waste of both the effort and the effort.

Ye Li flew over and pushed him away, looking at him coldly and said, "Internal strife? Prince Yelu used the wrong words, probably because he is not used to the language of the Great Chu."

Yeluye touched his nose and smiled: "At least we are standing on the same side now, right? I just wanted to protect the princess, but now it seems that it is not necessary." Ye Li looked at him with a fake smile and said: "No need for protection, Prince Yelu should stay away from me, be careful of accidental injury." Yeluye looked at Ye Li accurately cutting off the neck vein of a person who attempted to sneak attack with a dagger, and couldn't help but feel a chill on his neck. Is this the Princess of Dingguo of Da Chu? She is indeed as cruel as the legendary Prince Ding. But... is this kind of woman interesting...

"Guard!" The Yulin Army in the palace finally arrived. The large number of Yulin Army influx made the dark moment lose its advantage. Ye Li looked back at the situation that was beginning to be one-sided, and turned around without hesitation to go deep into the palace. Yelu Ye, who had been staring at her, touched his chin and followed with interest.
