Chapter 53 Assassin?
After Su Yue finished giving instructions and Xiaoduo and the others left, Su Yue was just about to leave the gloomy backyard.
Suddenly, there were shouts from afar: "Catch the assassin! Catch the assassin!"
After a few shouts, there was the sound of gongs being struck and the footsteps of guards gathering.
Su Yue stopped and listened carefully. The sound should have come from her father's direction.
Who dares to assassinate the prime minister?
Su Yue suppressed her curiosity. At this time, with so much excitement, she couldn't join in. After all, it was none of her business, so she just stayed out of it. She was extremely sleepy right now.
But some things would not happen unless she went there.
Just as Su Yue walked out of the gate of the broken courtyard, an extremely fast black shadow rushed towards him, and even faster than the black shadow was a sharp sound.
Su Yue cursed inwardly and threw herself on the ground, ignoring the mud and water on it.
At the moment she fell, Su Yue felt a chill beside her ear. Her right cheek was scratched by something, leaving a small cut and even a tuft of hair was cut off.
Then with a "snatch" sound, a dagger shining with cold light pierced straight into the broken door not far from her.
Su Yue lay on the ground, feeling a stinging pain on her cheek and a warm feeling. It seemed that she was cut by the dagger.
Su Yue's face turned cold and her eyes became fierce. This man actually attacked as soon as he said so!
If I had reacted a little slower just now, the dagger would have cut my neck instead of my hair.
When the man in black found that he did not kill her with one blow, he ran directly to Su Yue, pushed her down with one hand, and pushed her back into the broken courtyard, then closed the door with a bang.
Su Yue adjusted his body shape. Fortunately, the man was injured and the palm strike was not too heavy.
So she turned around abruptly, looked at the black shadow, and asked with some questioning: "I have no grudge against you, and I didn't even see what you look like, why did you kill me?"
As soon as she finished speaking, the dark figure who had been squatting stood up: "You said you didn't see it, so you didn't see it? Why should I believe you?"
Su Yue sneered, with a hint of arrogance in her tone: "Unfortunately, I don't need your trust now."
The man in black was stunned. The girl in front of him was only thirteen or fourteen years old. Although he was seriously injured, he was still more than capable of dealing with her.
This girl was standing in front of him. Not only was she not afraid, but she actually dared to speak to him in such a tone?
The murderous intent that the man in black had just suppressed reappeared, and his face was full of mockery: "You little girl, you are quite courageous. Do you believe that I will kill you?"
"Xin, didn't you just want to kill me?" Su Yue's tone was cold, as if she couldn't feel the murderous intent of the man in black at all. Her big eyes were filled with a maturity and calmness that shouldn't be there.
"But you can't kill me now." She opened her red lips slightly, calmly and calmly, returning all the mocking look from the man in black.
At this moment, a gust of cold wind blew from behind Su Yue and blew straight towards the man in black.
The man in black looked at the confident girl in front of him. Even in the dark, the man in black with extraordinary eyesight still noticed her blonde hair and her cheek that had just been cut by his dagger.
At this moment, the girl sneered, and stared at him with eyes like a ghost crawling out of the underworld to take his life.
The man in black felt a chill in his heart, and a sense of foreboding surged into his heart.
"You..." He was about to say something when he suddenly fell to the ground, his eyes wide open with a look of disbelief.
At this moment, he was completely without any strength and collapsed to the ground.
Su Yue walked up to the man in black and unceremoniously pulled off his veil, revealing a face that was quite handsome, but still inferior to the third prince.
She clapped her hands and sprinkled the remaining muscle softening powder directly on the black-clothed man's face without any hesitation.
Ever since she was kidnapped by the flower-stealing thief last time, she has been carrying muscle-softening powder with her just in case.
Just now, she deliberately spoke to the man in black to attract his attention, and then moved her position very carefully to put herself in the upper hand.
With the help of the cold wind, the soft muscles were relaxed and the attack hit the target.
"Are you the assassin just now?" Su Yue was very blunt at this time. Seeing that the man was dressed in black, he was probably the assassin just now.
The man in black's eyes turned cold and a murderous aura emanated from him because Su Yue pulled off his face mask without any scruples.
"Hey, even after all this, you still want to kill me?" Su Yue didn't care about the murderous aura at this time. After all, she was confident about the effect of this muscle softening powder.
The man in black just glared at Su Yue hatefully and didn't intend to reply to her. He still couldn't accept that he was actually knocked down by a yellow-haired girl. This was truly a great shame and humiliation.
"Are you still not talking? Are you upset about being captured alive by a little girl like me?" Su Yue completely ignored the murderous gaze of the man in black and asked lightly.
"It's none of your business." The man in black could no longer bear it, so he blurted out the curse without even realizing it, even though he never swore.
"Oh, you're stubborn." Su Yue raised her eyebrows, and her words were full of undisguised sarcasm: "It's none of my business. I've already walked to the door, and you forced me to stay. You let me stay, but look at you. You want to kill me with such a big dagger, and you still say, it's none of my business?"
After Su Yue finished speaking, he solemnly opened the door and pulled out the dagger stuck in the door, then closed the door casually, shaking the dagger in his hand that was shining coldly to prove that what he said was true.
"Luckily, I reacted quickly and only got my face scratched. If I had been slower, would I have died here?" Having said this, Su Yue paused, his face grim, his eyes fixed on the man in black.
So Su Yue squatted down, and put the dagger directly against his neck: "Tell me, who are you? Who did you come to the Prime Minister's Mansion to assassinate?"
A murderous aura that was no less than that of the man in black emanated from Su Yue, and was even stronger.
The black-clothed man's eyes narrowed. He didn't expect that this little girl looked young, but the aura around her was something that few people he had seen could match.
The man in black looked gloomy and stared at Su Yue, "You want to kill me?"
"Let me make it clear, you were the one who wanted to kill me first, are you going to tell me or not?" There was a hint of ruthlessness in Su Yue's eyes, and she increased the strength in her hands. A stream of blood flowed from the black-clothed man's chin and dripped onto Su Yue's hand.
"I……"
"Hurry, search everywhere, the assassin is injured, he can't run far!" The man in black was about to say something when suddenly a noisy sound came from this direction, and it seemed to be getting closer and closer.
