Chapter 214 It’s not Qi Jing.
That being said, it was almost four o'clock and no unusual figures appeared in the night vision goggles.
Ran Qingxuan was extremely anxious and looked out from time to time, hoping to see someone approaching quietly.
It was not until about 4:10 that Gu Yanchen vaguely saw four figures appear in the woods to the west through the night vision goggles.
"Look over there, someone seems to be coming!"
The Yigui people are tall and can be easily recognized by the way they walk and the accessories they wear.
"Let's finish this battle quickly before anyone comes."
"good!"
Ran Qingxuan was brought to the corner of the palace by him using his lightness skills. It was very close to the backyard. As long as Gu Yanchen led people to the front yard, she could take action at any time.
"I'll be back to pick you up in five minutes, get ready."
"Be careful, you don't have to worry about me."
Since she had used a sniper rifle in front of Gu's house before, the wound would easily attract attention, so Ran Qingxuan did not plan to use a gun this time.
The crossbow became her best weapon, and not long after Gu Yanchen left, the guards' exclamations were heard from the front yard.
"There is an assassin, catch him quickly..."
The scene was a little chaotic for a moment, and the screams of the palace maids and eunuchs reached the backyard. Soon, the guards who had already changed shifts and rested rushed to the front yard.
Ran Qingxuan looked at the guards who rushed to the front yard with weapons in hand without even having time to put on their clothes, and instantly showed a puzzled expression.
At this moment, Gu Yanchen was being chased by a large group of guards. Some of them shot arrows, some swung swords, but they just fell short.
From her angle, she could just see the roof of the front yard. The sight of Gu Yanchen flying up and jumping down from time to time made her extremely envious.
"I wish I could have inner strength someday..."
"Who's there?"
A clear male voice sounded, and Ran Qingxuan instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
I thought I was discovered, but at this moment someone answered: "There is an assassin. Your Highness, do you want to go and take a look?"
"How dare you come here? Do you think this is a vegetable market?"
Ran Qingxuan hid behind the dense bushes, and the more he listened to the sound, the more he felt something was wrong.
When I quietly peeked out, I only saw a figure flash by.
At this time, most of the guards in the backyard followed to the front yard, and the palace maids and eunuchs hid for fear of being encountered by the assassins.
There was no time to think whether that person was Qi Jing, because now was the best time!
After she threw out Wen Chapa's body, Gu Yanchen followed closely, holding a lot of arrows in his hands that only the palace guards could use.
Without further ado, Ran Qingxuan understood what he meant after seeing it, and pointed at Wen Chapa's head, motioning him to look over there.
Gu Yanchen's face, covered by the black scarf, suddenly tensed up, and he shot the arrow in his hand back along its original path without hesitation.
Since Wenchapa died in space, space can keep everything fresh, even the dead...
Therefore, the arrow in Gu Yanchen's hand did not encounter any obstacles. As soon as the person was stabbed, the blood in Wen Chapa's body began to flow uncontrollably.
In order to make the scene look more realistic, Gu Yanchen directly stabbed the rest of his hands into it.
Ran Qingxuan didn't feel scared when watching this scene. Compared with what Wen Chapa did to Gu Yanchong, this was already a bargain for him.
"You go ahead, I'll appear in front of the tree in a moment!"
Ran Qingxuan had previously discovered that as long as he entered the space and left the medical storage area, the distance after leaving would deviate from the distance when entering.
She was quite surprised when she discovered this, but she had never used it before. Now that she wanted to make it more realistic, she had to keep it.
Gu Yanchen was a little worried, but after seeing her determined gaze, he immediately chose to leave.
In about thirty seconds, the guards who were chasing in the front yard chased to the back yard, shouting.
At this time, Ran Qingxuan was using all his strength to carry Wen Chapa's body to the side. When he heard the sound of arrows breaking through the air, he immediately dropped Wen Chapa who was hit by several arrows.
The guards of the palace only saw the black shadow fall to the ground with a thud after being shot by an arrow, and did not see the figure disappearing behind the black shadow.
Using Wen Chapa's tall stature as a cover, Ran Qingxuan made everything seamless!
Just as the guards were surrounding the house, Wenchapa's men happened to jump onto the roof and saw the bodies surrounded.
The guard stepped forward and turned the body over, and the four people on the roof were able to see the body's appearance clearly in the light of the fire.
The next second, Wenchapa's four men showed expressions of horror and anger.
The first thing Ran Qingxuan did when she entered the space was to run towards the southeast. Only when she appeared about seven or eight meters away from the big tree did Gu Yanchen breathe a sigh of relief.
One of Wenchapa's four men was still sober. They whispered something to each other and soon appeared at the front gate.
Ran Qingxuan decided to watch the fun for a while before leaving, and she had something else she needed to ask Gu Yanchen.
The gatekeeper didn't know what happened in the backyard. When he saw the visitor holding the token of the second prince of Yigui and saying that he was here to visit, he immediately ran over to report.
But they never expected that these four people would follow them directly. As a result, when they arrived at the backyard, they happened to see the guards handling the scene in a panic.
Ada rushed forward without saying a word, slashed off one of the men's hands with a knife, and snatched away the dead Wenchapa.
After just a quick inspection, the remaining three people drew their swords and attacked each other.
"How dare you kill my noble prince of Yigui?"
The scene fell into chaos in an instant. The guards looked at the leader with swords in hand and could not help but take a few steps back.
Ran Qingxuan watched this scene. The figure that just flashed by overlapped with the person in the lead. When he was puzzled, he saw Gu Yanchen looking at the person below with a shocked expression.
"I just wanted to ask you, is that person Qi Jing?"
Gu Yanchen shook his head and said in a deep voice something that shocked Ran Qingxuan.
"No, that's not Crown Prince Qi Jing, that's the Second Prince, Qi Ren!"
"What? Why is he in Taicang Palace? Isn't this Qi Jing's territory?"
After glancing at the crowd, Ran Qingxuan's eyes widened instantly and he pointed at Qi Ren in disbelief.
"Someone just reported to him that there was an assassin. I heard him say in person why he came here. He thought this place was a vegetable market or something. Do you think...will Qi Jing give the Taicang Palace to Qi Ren?"
Gu Yanchen took a deep breath, as if he was trying his best to calm down.
"I don't know. If it was Qi Ren who imprisoned my brother, then..."
Does that mean he misunderstood Qi Jing?
Or was it that, in addition to Qi Ren, Qi Jing was also involved in everything they had seen in the palace?
The chaos at that moment made Gu Yanchen a little too excited, as if he was going to rush up and grab someone to ask questions in the next second.
After noticing that something was wrong with his condition, Ran Qingxuan was worried and immediately held his hand to comfort him.
