Zhang Wu followed closely behind Wutong, looking worried:

"I feel really bad about leaving General Shen behind like this, so I want to go and say goodbye to General Shen..."

Wutong pointed to a courtyard in the distance and said:

"No, no, brave man, please look, General Shen is there. It's so far away, and it will be very dangerous to go back.

Moreover, in order to heal his wounds today, General Shen took tranquilizers and went to bed early. The doctor said that General Shen would not wake up until tomorrow morning, so even if the warrior saw General Shen, he would not be able to speak.

All the warriors should run for their lives quickly. "

Zhang Wu was originally doubtful in his heart, wondering if this little girl who suddenly appeared and said she wanted to save them was a trap and there was some conspiracy behind it.

But now Wutong kept urging them to escape, so Zhang Wu put aside his doubts and believed that this little girl really wanted to save people.

It was truly God's will. Shen He was away, Shen Quan was in a coma, and the guards at the Princess's Mansion were the most lax. If we didn't kill Shen Quan now, when would we? !

And this little girl should be killed together with the others to prevent the news from leaking out and to eliminate future troubles.

Zhang Wu had murderous intention in his heart, but after being captured and taken to the Princess's mansion, all his weapons were confiscated and he had no sharp weapon in his hands. Otherwise, he could have taken advantage of her unpreparedness and killed her with a single strike of the sword.

While Zhang Wu thanked Wutong perfunctorily to attract her attention, he winked at the person next to him, asking him to attack from behind.

At this moment, someone shouted from afar: "Wutong! Wutong!"

Wutong's face changed:

"It must be the princess who is looking for me. I will lead them away. Otherwise, they will find their way here. Warriors, please leave quickly."

Wutong held up her skirt and ran very fast. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared in the flower path. In a moment, Zhang Wu lost this good opportunity to kill and silence the witness.

Whatever, she's just a girl, let her go. If I chase her now and get discovered, it will cause trouble. Above all else, it is more important to kill Shen Quan first.

Zhang Wu looked at the courtyard that Wutong had just pointed at and gave the order: "Let's go!"

. . . . . .

Not far away, at the third-floor window of the theater in the Princess's Mansion, Su Fengyi pulled the bowstring to its full length and aimed at the dark flower path.

Wutong doesn't have enough experience, so Su Fengyi is not 100% sure about sending her.

There are not many loyal and useful people around Su Fengyi, and each one of them is very precious and cannot be wasted.

So she was prepared to protect Wutong. In case Wutong messed up the performance and couldn't continue, she would simply overturn the card table and kill those assassins.

If this script doesn't work, try another one.

Su Fengyi watched Wutong running faster and faster, as if there was a ghost chasing him from behind. She also saw those assassins appearing and disappearing in the moonlight, heading towards the bedroom. Only then did she put away the feather arrow in her hand.

Wutong held his breath and dared not breathe until he entered the theater. Then he touched his chest and tried to suppress his pounding heart.

Before going to the private prison, the eldest princess warned her that today's scene would be life-threatening, and asked her if she was afraid.

At that time, Wutong vowed:

"I am not afraid at all."

But as soon as she felt the sudden murderous aura, her heart couldn't stop beating, and she couldn't tell whether she was more afraid or more excited.

She ran up to the third floor and saw the eldest princess standing by the window, smiling at her approvingly. It was like encountering a stabilizing force in a stormy sea. Wutong's wildly beating heart instantly calmed down.

Wutong bowed calmly and reported:

"It has been done. I have come to report back."

Although Wutong was a little impatient at the end of this scene and ran away too quickly, making it easy for others to see through his flaws, it was indeed good that he was able to accomplish such a task for the first time. He is a good talent.

Su Fengyi helped Wutong up:

"Tomorrow you and Xie Xuan will formally perform the apprenticeship ceremony, learn some skills from him, and in the future when you reply, you must refer to him as your humble servant instead of your slave."

A lowly official is a household servant, and a slave is a domestic servant.

There is only one word difference between "retainer" and "house servant", but the connotation, status and identity are completely different.

How could someone as smart as Wutong not know the promise and expectation implied in the eldest princess' words?

Wutong was so excited that his whole body was shaking:

"No, your humble servant, I obey your orders and will not disappoint your highness."

While the two were talking, Xie Xuan had been staring out the window, observing the movements of the assassins. Seeing that they had reached the outskirts of the bedroom, he turned around and said:

"Your Highness, it's almost done."

When Wutong saw Xie Xuan's face, he looked as if he had seen a ghost. His expression suddenly changed and he couldn't help but blurt out:

"Zhang Wu!"

The voice belongs to Captain Xie, but why is the face Zhang Wu's?

Su Fengyi smiled and said:

"You are so familiar with Captain Xie, and you can admit your mistakes. It looks like you will have something to sing in the next scene."

Wutong reacted and wondered if this was the legendary disguise technique of the Jinyiwei?

When will she be able to learn such a superb skill!

Wutong stared at Xie Xuan with shining eyes, wishing he could pull his disguised face over his own face to satisfy himself.

Xie Xuan seemed to know what she was thinking and said coldly:

"Hold your weapons firmly. Get through Level 1 tonight first, and then think about Level 4."

A1: Talk about the art of killing.

Jiasi, talks about the art of disguise.

Wutong understood. It seemed that the next scene would involve bloodshed.

Wutong had a good idea. Now that things had come to this, what Su Fengyi wanted was to either not do it or do it to the extreme.

Su Fengyi just didn't believe it. When these assassins drew their knives and fought with Shen He for their lives, would Shen He still be so blind and believe in King Pingliang?

……

The west wing of the Princess's bedroom was pitch black.

Shen He sat on the beam holding a plate of snacks, waiting in boredom. He yawned, bit a piece of osmanthus cake and complained:

"Why hasn't Zhang Wu come yet? Has Su Fengyi changed her mind and won't let him go?"

Shen Quan was lying in bed peacefully, but he had to turn over with a frown:

"Stop eating. Why are you still eating after eating all night? The crumbs of your cake are falling on my face.

Since the princess said it was the third watch of the night, it must be the third watch. You can hear the clappers. It is already the third watch. It will be almost time."

Shen He held some snacks in his arms, changed his seat on a beam, and said:

"Brother, you really don't consider going to Pingliang?

I think Pingliang is a nice place. Although it is a bit remote, the emperor is far away and the king of Pingliang is a righteous and straightforward person. It's so comfortable.

Now the emperor is a bastard, I don't want to serve him anymore, I don't want to be a general anymore, how about going to Pingliang to be a knight-errant?"

Shen Quan felt that his brother was really stupid today, and asked:

"The King of Pingliang and you have never met before, but how do you know that the King of Pingliang is righteous and straightforward? Where is his righteousness and straightforwardness?

If you have never been to Pingliang, you will know that it is quite nice and comfortable. What is the nice part and what is the comfortable part?

Just based on a few words from a random person, you made such a hasty decision. Shen He, tell me, when did you become so stupid? "

Shen He habitually wanted to argue with his brother and say something like "You are the stupid one, your whole family is stupid." However, he opened his mouth and was about to say something, but he was startled and closed it again.

Because he suddenly realized, yes, the world is so big, there is no place that he can't go. He didn't know Zhang Wu before, so why did he believe Zhang Wu without hesitation when he appeared and said he wanted to help him? Why did he naturally want to go to Pingliang when Zhang Wu said he wanted to go to Pingliang?

Why?

It's just like being possessed.
