assassin?
How could assassins infiltrate the Imperial Guard camp?
Immediately, the lieutenant said in a deep voice, "General, this subordinate will make arrangements immediately!"
Xie Zhi nodded.
The lieutenant glanced again at the wound on Xie Zhi's arm: "Your wound..."
Xie Zhi shook his head: "It's just a superficial wound, nothing serious."
After speaking, he drew his sword and chased after Yun Chan.
Huaiyao followed: "Hey, Xie Zhi, wait for me..."
Feng Xun followed Tang Yuan and found Huai Rou in a storage room.
When they found Huairou, she was unconscious, but her body was perfectly fine.
Feng Xun loosened her clenched fist, her eyes reddening with heartache.
He reached out with trembling hands to check Huairou's breathing, and then his legs went weak.
Thank God...
Feng Xun looked around, then bent down to pick up Huai Rou.
Just as he embraced Huairou, a dark figure landed: "Where's Yuan Yao?"
Feng Xun looked up.
Standing before him was an ordinary-looking young man, so ordinary that one could easily forget what he looked like...
"Yun Chan?" Feng Xun asked.
"It's me." Yun Chan nodded, the tip of her sword dragging on the ground, sparks flying. "Where's Yuan Yao?"
Just then, Tangyuan, who had been searching everywhere for someone, rushed into the storage room.
Upon seeing Yun Chan, Tangyuan let out a drawn-out "Aww... Aww..."
Its voice was filled with anxiety and worry.
Yun Chan raised her hand and placed it on Tangyuan's head: "Didn't you find her?"
Tangyuan cried out anxiously, "Aww..."
It circled around but didn't see anything at all.
Even though it wasn't late autumn yet, Yun Chan felt as if she had fallen into an ice cave.
Immediately, he took out a small porcelain bottle, opened the lid, and placed it on Huairou's nose.
His hands were trembling...
The medicine works very quickly.
Soon, Huairou's eyelids twitched, and she opened her eyes.
Before she could even see him clearly, she started gagging: "Ugh..."
"Huairou, Huairou, are you alright?" Feng Xun asked, her eyes red, as she gently patted Huairou. "Where's Yao'er? Where did Yao'er go?"
Huairou had a splitting headache, with severe pain extending to the back of his head and neck.
She covered half her face with her sleeve, suppressing several dry heaves before finally crying out, her face deathly pale, "Feng Xun, quick... quick, go save Yao'er!"
"What exactly happened between you?" Yun Chan exuded a chilling aura.
Huairou paused for a moment before asking, "Who are you...?"
"Clouds murmur."
Huairou, her voice strained and strained, said, "I... I had just finished using the restroom and washed my hands when someone knocked me unconscious..."
I wanted to warn Yao'er, but I couldn't react in time...
“These people are definitely here for Yao’er.” Feng Xun held Huairou tightly and said to Yun Chan, “We must find Yao’er immediately!”
Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable…
A virgin girl who had just come of age had been kidnapped for half an hour.
Half an hour is enough time for a lot to happen...
Feng Xun's eyes reddened: "Yun Chan, if Yao'er..."
"She won't!" Yun Chan clenched her fist, her slender yet powerful fingers almost breaking the sword hilt.
"But what if?" Feng Xun's voice was slightly low.
just in case?
Yun Chan closed her eyes, then opened them again. Her once bright eyes now held a hint of cold, murderous intent: "I don't mind, I just want her to live."
It's her, that's good..."
After speaking, he quickly left.
When Xie Zhi arrived, he happened to see Feng Xun carrying Huairou out.
He paused for a moment upon seeing the two of them.
Huairou, tears still on her face, cried out, "Your Highness, Yao'er is missing! Quickly, find her!"
Xie Zhi looked Huairou up and down and said to Feng Xun, "Take Huairou to the carriage first, I'll go find someone."
As he spoke, he turned to leave.
Just then, Ye Changyou emerged from a doorway, looking haggard and clutching his stomach.
Upon seeing the three of them, Ye Changyou gritted his teeth and said, "You lot, come here to me!"
Xie Zhi glanced at Ye Changyou: "Your Majesty has something to attend to, let's talk later! I have urgent matters to attend to."
After saying that, he turned to leave.
"Stop right there!" Ye Changyou reached out and stopped Xie Zhi.
Xie Zhi's brow twitched.
Feng Xun gently put Huai Rou down and looked at Ye Changyou: "What is it that Your Majesty insists on saying now?"
Ye Changyou weakly raised his finger: "You... how dare you!"
"I am the Emperor of Dongye! How dare you put poison in my tea!"
Both of them looked shocked.
Feng Xun and Huai Rou both looked up and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Xie Zhi spoke up, saying, "Night Emperor, that medicine wasn't intended for you."
Today, someone is deliberately trying to harm Xiao Yao'er..."
Yuan Yao?
Ye Changyou's face immediately turned cold: "Where is Yuan Yao?"
“He…” Xie Zhi clenched his fist.
Feng Xun's gentle voice was a little hoarse: "Yao'er has been kidnapped."
"What?!" Ye Changyou exclaimed in shock.
"Xiao Yao'er was taken away, it's all my fault..." Xie Zhi's voice was also a little hoarse: "I'll go find someone right away. It concerns Xiao Yao'er's innocence, so you must not keep it from anyone else."
After speaking, he looked at Feng Xun: "Feng Xun, take Huairou back to the stands first."
I'll send you a message as soon as I get it.
Feng Xun pondered for a moment, then nodded with difficulty: "Okay..."
Xie Zhi picked up his sword and left.
"Wait!" Ye Changyou once again spread his arms to block him.
Xie Zhi's forehead veins throbbed: "Night Emperor!"
He almost gritted his teeth.
Ye Changyou said in a deep, cold voice, "I will go with you!"
"You?" Xie Zhi frowned deeply.
Ye Changyou glanced around, then reached out and took off his outer robe and headdress, tossing them to Feng Xun: "Please keep these for me."
After removing his magnificent outer robe, Ye Changyou asked Xie Zhi for a sword and cut the robe into several pieces.
Finally, in front of the three of them, he grabbed a handful of dark soil from the ground, skillfully rubbed it in his palm, and then smeared it evenly on his face...
They were all shocked.
Judging from Ye Changyou's practiced manner, he must have done this many times before...
After completing his disguise, Ye Changyou washed his hands and said to Xie Zhi, "Let's go, I'll go with you to find Yuan Yao."
Xie Zhi nodded.
He hesitated for a moment, then called to Tangyuan, "Come with me, young master."
Tangyuan swung its tail, stood up, and started running.
The clouds can fly, and it can't keep up.
Xie Zhi didn't fly, so it could finally catch up...
Yuan Yao had no idea how long she had been unconscious.
She felt vaguely dizzy and swaying.
And my head hurts so much.
Not only does my head hurt, but my whole body aches...
The back of my head hurts especially badly.
In her daze, she reached out and gently pressed the back of her head.
The press woke her up with pain.
"hiss……"
Yuan Yao took a deep breath and opened her eyes.
A dark figure approached her: "Awake?"
He spoke in a rough and gruff voice.
That voice was clearly deliberately faked.
Yuan Yao tried to raise her hand to rub her eyes, but found that her hands had already been tied up...
Her throat was terribly dry, and she asked, "Is there any water? I need some water."
Drink water?
The kidnapper chuckled and asked, "You've been kidnapped, why aren't you afraid or crying?"
Are you stupid? Why aren't you struggling?
And you still dare to drink my water?
Yuan Yao: "..."
She said in a hoarse voice, "Why are you so long-winded?"
"Where's the water? I want some water."
