Fingers of crossing

"There are assassins, protect the eldest princess and prince!"

Outside the main hall, Zhao Hang, the commander of the Imperial Forest Army, had drawn his sword and walked in quickly. The scene was chaotic. He hastily scanned every corner of the hall until he saw Yan Yilan and Yan Junyao, and he gave orders loudly.

Hearing what he said, the imperial army quickly followed Zhao Hang's instructions, and spread out to block Yan Yilan and Yan Junyao, and neatly drew their swords in their hands and stood ready.

The accident happened suddenly, Jiang Ningzui's figure was overwhelmed by fleeing officials at the entrance of the main hall, her gaze was still on the stage in the middle of the main hall, and the dancers who had been surrounded by Liu Huanxue scattered away one after another , and went around towards the main hall.

The assassin's target might be Yan Yilan, Yan Junyao, or even the King of Wu, but it was absolutely impossible for her to be herself. Jiang Ning calmed down secretly, and did not follow the fleeing officials in front of her. Messed up.No one knows what the situation is now, maybe leaving the hall without authorization at this moment, and will be ambushed by assassins the next moment, instead of taking risks, it is better to simply stay in the hall and wait and see what happens.

Thinking about it, Jiang Ningzui suddenly saw the most dangerous place in the middle of the stage. Among the shadows of swords and swords, Chi Wei in white quickly hugged Liu Huanxue beside him. With an arrow in the back, he flew towards the outside of the hall.

Didn't it mean that Chi Wei just knows how to punch?But now even a modern person like her who doesn't know martial arts can see that Chi Wei knows more than just fists and kicks.

The figures of Chi Wei and Liu Huanxue jumped over Jiang Ningzui's head, and they had left the hall in the blink of an eye. Jiang Ningzui was still puzzled when he suddenly heard the urgent voice of the Imperial Forest Army not far away.

"Your Highness, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time, and please ask the ministers to escort His Highness away immediately!"

Following the sound, I saw that not far away, Yan Yilan had stood up from her seat at some point, surrounded by the guards in front of her for protection, Zhao Hang asked Yan Yilan for instructions, but Yan Yilan just Standing coldly, without any intention of dodging, the evening wind blows away the broken hair on her forehead, revealing her cold and cold eyes at this time.Her gaze quickly found Yan Junyao beside her, and it was only then that she suddenly stopped giving orders.

"Escort the prince and King Wu to leave first!"

After Yan Yilan finished speaking, her eyes flashed across the hurriedly fleeing crowd in front of her, and she asked in a deep voice, "Where is the Crown Princess?"

Zhao Hang panicked when he heard the words, lowered his head and said urgently: "This subordinate should die, the hall is in chaos at this moment, and no figure of the Crown Princess is found..."

Yan Yilan's dark eyes were bottomless at this moment, and the eyes that were originally charming were full of sharp chills, which made people feel afraid. "I don't care what method you use, find her immediately!"

Zhao Hang wanted to persuade her again, but it was a pity that the coldness in Yan Yilan's eyes was too deep for Zhao Hang to propose her to leave again, thinking about it, Zhao Hang could only fold his fists and listen to the order: "Your subordinate obeys!"

Jiang Ningzui has never seen Yan Yilan's piercingly cold gaze, but she feels that just looking at it makes her heart feel chilly, and even her words are full of murderous intent, as if she can only rely on a single word. Half a sentence can kill people invisible.Jiang Ningzui could hardly help wondering if the Yan Yilan she saw was still the enchanting, loose, frivolous and playful eldest princess.

And in such an urgent situation, Yan Yilan was actually looking for her, Jiang Ningzui turned her head to look at the back of the prince leaving in a hurry, her heart was suddenly blocked by something, and she turned her head to look at Yan Yilan again. become complicated and difficult to understand.

"The crown princess is here, it is the crown princess! Come quickly, it is important to protect the crown princess!"

Someone in a panic spotted Jiang Ningzui's figure and immediately exclaimed.Before Jiang Ningzui could react, she felt the sound of wind in her ears, and a tingling in the back of her head. She instinctively turned her head and saw a cold light coming towards her head. Flying past the ear, almost stabbed.

Originally, Jiang Ningzui had been staying in the side hall, and the assassin's attention was not on her, but now after the shouts of the Imperial Forest Army just now, coupled with the scarlet phoenix robe on her body, she looked particularly eye-catching.The assassin who assassinated Yan Yilan over there was suffering from being unable to strike. Now that Jiang Ningzui was the prey that came to her door automatically, there was no reason to let him go.

"Crown princess be careful!"

Zhao Hang rushed to Jiang Ningzui's side first, his voice sounded hastily, stopping Jiang Ningzui's steps to continue to retreat outside the hall, only to see two hidden arrows land behind Jiang Ningzui with two clangs At a distance of one meter, if she hadn't stopped in time just now, the two arrows would have already landed on her body one after the other.

The air was flowing violently, and the hall was in a mess at this moment. Blood mixed with coldness was sucked into the lungs, and there was a smell of despair and suffocation.Jiang Ningzui was really a little scared. The imperial forest soldiers who came to escort her fell one after another, and no one could tell if she would be the next one to fall.

Before she had time to think about it, Jiang Ningzui turned her head instinctively, and quickly found Yan Yilan's figure in the scarlet mess, but seeing that she was protected by the Imperial Forest Army, she should not have been injured.She just stood there so calmly, her eyes were coldly falling on Jiang Ningzui's side, her eyes didn't seem nervous or worried, but rather searching.He obviously wanted to find her so eagerly before, but now that he really found her, he didn't seem to care at all.

This look made Jiang Ningzui's heart feel cold for a moment. She turned her head and saw an assassin who did not know when to rush out of the hall. The silver sword in his hand was shining with cold light. Attacked in front of her.

Jiang Ningzui retreated with the few remaining imperial guards around her. Unfortunately, the speed of the approaching people was too fast. If this continues, Jiang Ningzui will be overtaken by her sooner or later.

Seemingly unable to escape, Jiang Ningzui looked at the assassin with scarlet eyes in front of her, and thought resignedly, if she died here, would she return to the world that originally belonged to her.

Jiang Ningzui tightly closed her eyes, and in panic, she only heard someone calling out in a shrill voice: "Princess!"

This cry forced Jiang Ningzui to open her eyes, and she only had time to see a figure passing by in her sight, and when she looked carefully, she saw that the assassin had already approached her, and killed a person with the silver sword in her hand. A Queen of the Royal Forest Army quickly came to Jiang Ningzui's body, raised her sword and stabbed at her fiercely.

The assassin is well-trained, clean and tidy without any unnecessary movements, everything seems to happen in an instant, so fast that no one can stop it, and can only watch helplessly as the assassin's sword stabs forward inch by inch, the sound of the knife piercing into the bone, the hall Suddenly, it became quiet, eerily quiet.

The pain was not as severe as Jiang Ningzui had imagined. She raised her head and looked at Yan Yilan who did not know when to appear in front of her, her brain suddenly exploded with a bang, and her face slowly turned pale, as if she had been crushed in an instant. Drained all blood.

Why do you want to save me?I clearly...had hated you so much...

Thinking about it, Jiang Ningzui watched Yan Yilan's body suddenly leaned over, she turned her eyes to her body, took a sharp breath, and even her breathing froze for an instant.The assassin's sharp sword was piercing into Yan Yilan's right shoulder fiercely at this moment, her brows were slightly furrowed, and the corners of her always joking mouth concealed a cruel killing intent, her left hand was holding the long sword tightly, not to let It tried to continue stabbing forward in vain.

After watching for a while, Jiang Ningzui suddenly remembered that she was pushed away fiercely at the very moment, and she staggered back a few steps, so she escaped the assassin's attack by luck.But Yan Yilan couldn't dodge it, the long sword pierced fiercely into her right shoulder, like a ferocious beast that would never let go until it crushed its prey.

Yan Yilan's shoulders were soaked in blood in an instant, and the dark red color spread from her shoulders. The blood dripped down the long sword, and each drop seemed to carry the weight of a thousand pieces of gold. The intoxicated shoulders made her heart feel tight.

Sensing that the assassin wanted to draw the sword and escape, Yan Yilan clenched her left hand tightly, the hand holding the sword became sticky, and the smell of blood filled her surroundings.The pain was no longer as sharp as it was at the beginning, and even gradually became numb. Yan Yilan moved her lips with difficulty, and there was no blood on her previously bright red lips. She said calmly, "What are you still doing... "

As Yan Yilan said, before she could finish her sentence of 'capture alive', someone from the Royal Forest Army suddenly drew out a sword and slashed at the back of the female assassin, the female assassin died instantly, her body dangling in the air All of a sudden, she threw herself towards Yan Yilan, a wry smile slowly emerged from the corner of her mouth, she didn't know whether it was out of helplessness or ridicule.Yan Yilan reluctantly dodged to dodge, but her movement hurt the wound, her body suddenly became unstable, and she tilted to the side.

"Yilan!"

Suddenly there was a pair of hands behind her supporting her, through the strong smell of blood, Yan Yilan could still smell the familiar fragrance of Yuelin on her body, she couldn't help thinking a little funny, in my impression, this was the first time Jiang Ningzui called her. Although his own name still has such a clear and cold tone.

Well, let's not worry about her boringness.

Jiang Ningzui's hand holding Yan Yilan trembled subconsciously, just like the shock in her heart at this moment, she clearly remembered that Yan Yilan was standing idly by in the imperial army one second, who would have thought that she would He came to rescue her regardless of the danger like this, and seeing the sword piercing deeply into Yan Yilan's shoulder, she even felt pain.

"Ah, it hurts."

Yan Yilan's hands hanging down her side due to the dull pain were covered with blood, her expression was a little dazed due to excessive blood loss, her words were still joking, but the carelessness in her tone could hardly conceal her weakness at this moment.Ever since she was a child, Yan Yilan was the most afraid of pain, so she cherished herself very much. Now that she has caused such a serious injury to herself, it was only now that she began to feel some regret.

Jiang Ningzui kept silent when she heard the words, but unconsciously relaxed her hand, for fear that hugging her would hurt her and increase her pain.

Sensing Jiang Ningzui's movements, Yan Yilan turned her head slightly, and seeing her absent-minded, a teasing smile was forced out of the corner of her mouth, the loose banter still indelible in her expression, and she said with a soft smile: "Come tonight Bengong's bedroom, maybe you can play the piano and sing songs for me, so I can feel better." As she said that, Yan Yilan glanced lightly at Jiang Ningzui, the meaning in that light gaze was more threatening than anything The banter was serious, "After all, I was hurt because of you..."

Beside her, Biyuan has already rushed to call the imperial physician, Jiang Ningzui heard Yan Yilan's reckless teasing, she was at a loss for words, the original heartache disappeared immediately, and said lightly: "I won't."

"No, I can teach you," Yan Yilan's breath was already unsteady, and her eyes began to become heavy. She closed her eyes slowly, and still smiled calmly: "Holding hands..."

When Jiang Ningzui heard this, she almost wished she could push Yan Yilan out. She tried her best to stabilize her temper, and found that no matter how calm and calm a person is, she might lose all her achievements in front of a shameless person like Yan Yilan.

Suppressing the emotions in her heart, Jiang Ningzui exhaled slowly, and said frankly: "Princess, with all due respect, your temper is really weird and hateful."
