Gu Xinglang looked down to see who was lying at his feet. The people chasing Li Ning also came over. The two gangs looked at each other and didn't think of talking for a while. ..
Yu Xiaoxiao was depressed. She was caught by someone. What kind of adultery did she see? This was bad luck!
Gu Xinglang put his hand on the hilt of the knife, feeling that today's matter would be difficult.
The people who were chasing Li Ning couldn't believe their eyes. Would an assassin be so stupid as to come to the imperial palace in broad daylight to assassinate someone? If you want to kill someone, you have to wait until the sun goes down, right?
The attendant monk came to the scene of the accident at this time. He was not wearing monk's robes and had a hat on his head. From his appearance, others could not tell that he was a monk. After seeing Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang, the attendant monk was stunned. Yu Xiaoxiao covered her face, but her height and figure were there. The attendant monk's instinctive reaction was, No way - could it be -? !
Yu Xiaoxiao also looked at the attendant monk. This man looked familiar. She must have seen him somewhere.
"You..." the attendant monk wanted to shout.
How could Yu Xiaoxiao let the attendant monks shout for help? Rushing forward, what resistance could these people in front of her have? In the blink of an eye, they all fell to the ground.
Gu Xinglang kicked off the hat of the attendant monk and saw the bald man with burn marks from his ordination.
Yu Xiaoxiao came over to look and said, "Monk?"
"People from the Temple of Eternal Life," said Gu Xinglang.
Yu Xiao: "Really?"
Gu Xinglang nodded and said, "I saw him next to Mo Wen."
Yu Xiao: "Why would someone from the Eternal Life Temple come to the palace to bully a prisoner?"
Gu Xinglang looked at the young man fainting at the foot of the wall and said, "Is he a prisoner?"
Yu Xiaoxiao was a little shocked and said, "This guy doesn't look like a guard, does he? He's not a prisoner, is he another lover of Concubine Long?"
Gu Xinglang..., the Dragon Concubine can't be so despicable, right?
Yu Xiaoxiao estimated the figure of the man at the foot of the wall, walked a few steps to the side, stripped the clothes of a man who fainted on the ground, and said to Gu Xinglang: "Forget it, since we have bumped into him, we can't just watch him die, let's save him."
Gu Xinglang said: "Xiaoxiao, if we don't know his identity, will we save him?"
Yu Xiaoxiao blinked her eyes and said, "Don't ask who you want to kill. How bad can they be?"
Gu Xinglang stood there thinking for a while, and finally nodded. He decided to save her. With his wife's ability, saving her would be like playing. Young Master Gu stepped forward and wrapped Li Ning in the clothes that Yu Xiaoxiao was holding.
Yu Xiaoxiao stood by and looked at the Second Emperor. She seemed to have seen this human bone before. Where had she seen it before? Yu Xiaoxiao tilted her head and thought about it again and again, but couldn't remember. (==)
Gu Xinglang glanced at the attendant monk who had fainted on the snow, and said to Yu Xiao: "Let's take him away too."
Yu Xiao: "Why take him away?"
Gu Xinglang said: "He is someone close to Mo Wen. If we interrogate him, we will definitely be able to find out some things about Mo Wen."
Yu Xiaoxiao wanted to say that if she wanted to know Mo Wen's secret, she could go to the White Horse Temple and eavesdrop one day. However, seeing Gu Xinglang's serious expression, Yu Xiaoxiao still walked up to the attendant monk and picked him up, saying, "Okay, you can interrogate him if you like."
Gu Xinglang carried Li Ning on his shoulders.
Yu Xiaoxiao looked back and realized that saving people was the most important thing. She would not be able to see the live version today.
Gu Xinglang said: "Xiaoxiao, let's go."
Yu Xiaoxiao carried the attendant monk over the wall and turned back to help her little Gu, then she saw Gu Xinglang jumping down from the wall carrying someone.
Gu Xinglang carried Li Ning on his shoulders again and said to Yu Xiao, "Let's go."
Yu Xiaoxiao pointed at the footprints she and Gu Xinglang had left on the snow and said, "Do you want to get rid of them?"
Gu Xinglang glanced at his own footprints and said, "No need. Once we leave the palace, who would know which footprints are ours?" There were pedestrians and carriages all over the street. How could he find him and his wife by their footprints? Gu Shao said, stop joking.
The young couple, one carrying someone and the other holding someone, ran out of the Suzaku Imperial Palace.
Concubine Long and Ai Jingzhong waited in the palace for a long time, but there was no news from the attendant monks. Feeling that something was wrong, Prime Minister Ai hurriedly led his men to the courtyard where Li Ning lived.
The courtyard was quiet. When people walked into the palace, they could see the bloodstains on the ground at a glance.
"Follow the blood trail," Ai Jingzhong said with a gloomy face.
Mo Wen's men would not kill someone and then take Li Ning's body away without informing him and Concubine Long, right? They didn't take them seriously! Even if Ai Jingzhong was afraid of Mo Wen, he was still adding fuel to the fire.
The group followed the trail of blood that was dripping onto the snow, passed through the grove in the courtyard, and arrived at the base of the courtyard wall.
"ah--"
Some timid prisoners screamed immediately after seeing several people fainted in the snow.
Ai Jingzhong rushed forward and looked at several people, and found that Li Ning and the monk attendant beside Mo Wen were not among them. Lord Ai looked at the footprints on the ground that had not yet been covered by the new snow. The footprints at the base of the wall pricked Lord Ai's eyes, "Go look outside the wall!" Ai Jingzhong ordered loudly.
The group hurriedly ran out of the palace again.
When Ai Jingzhong reached the outside of the wall, he saw four sets of footprints heading towards the gate of the imperial palace.
"Prime Minister?" A supervisor asked Ai Jingzhong anxiously.
Ai Jingzhong's mind raced. This couldn't possibly be done by the Eternal Life Temple. Those fainted in the wall were all members of the Eternal Life Temple. He had never heard of one's own people fighting one's own people. This was not how the "self-torture tactic" was used. "Go notify the guards," Ai Jingzhong ordered his attendants, "and tell them that the Second Prince was kidnapped in Chanshui Palace."
He ran forward in a hurry and found the guards.
Ai Jingzhong had no time to go back to see Concubine Long, so he ordered a supervisor to report to Concubine Long. He and his men hurried out of the palace and rushed to the White Horse Temple to see Mo Wen.
Concubine Long knew that she was not killed but rescued instead. She felt relieved but at the same time, her heart was hanging in her throat. Was this a good thing or a bad thing for her and Li Lu?
Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang left the palace and hired a carriage on the street. When they were two blocks away from the posthouse, the young couple got off the horses, stood by and watched the coachman drive away, then they carried the people and walked back to the posthouse.
Thinking that Suzaku's guards were still guarding outside the inn, Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang had no choice but to climb over the wall with their men.
Jing Mo was sitting in the room eating breakfast and drinking porridge when he heard Yu Xiaoxiao calling him outside the door, "What..." Before Jing Mo could finish his question, Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang had already entered the room with their people, followed by the stunned captain of the guards.
"What's wrong?" Jing Mo stood up and asked.
"Don't ask the people around you." Yu Xiaoxiao shook the attendant monk she was holding, and threw him to the ground as soon as her hand loosened. Then she pointed at the person who was placed on the couch by Gu Xinglang and said, "This is the prisoner we rescued from the palace. Jingmo, you can take care of it. Xiao Gu and I are going to have dinner."
