Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 334 The Assassination of Zhao Xiwei

so cold...

Zhao Xiwei stood in front of the long street, letting the cold wind pour into his sleeves, but stubbornly refused to get in the car.

The drizzle was like flying needles, piercing her skin one by one, making her shiver involuntarily.

She looked in the direction of the end of the street, there was a lot of traffic and people coming and going, but that familiar figure did not appear.

Why hasn't he come to pick her up yet?

Are you still mad at her?

But even if you are angry, you shouldn't leave her in the Zhao residence and ignore her...

Grievance, disappointment, and some inexplicable emotions surged up.

Zhao Mansion is not her home, she has no place here.He knows it all!
She always felt that she was not afraid of the cold, but at this moment, when her limbs were almost numb from the cold, all she could think about was him.

Yes, is there anyone in this world who is not afraid of the cold?It's just that I haven't experienced the warmth.

His chest was hot, his palms warm.

If he was here, he would hold her frozen body in his arms, hide her cold fingers in his palm, and warm her bit by bit.

But he is not here now.

The boy driving the car was full of panic, and cupped his hands to persuade: "It's better to ask the princess to get in the car. If she freezes her body, the prime minister will definitely be held accountable, and the villain can't afford it..."

As he said that, he turned his eyes to Jinxiu asking for help, and said in a low voice, "Sister Jinxiu, hurry up and persuade her!"

Jinxiu hurriedly helped Zhao Xiwei, and said softly, "Miss, it's so cold outside, let's go back first!"

Zhao Xi bit his lip slightly, glanced at the carriage in front of him, and then looked up at the intersection ahead.

Still nothing happened.

She endured the cold wind for a long time, and the little expectation in her heart, like a wisp of green smoke, dispersed more and more in the wind until it disappeared completely without a trace.

In fact, she didn't have to ask Li Xuanye to pick him up, but she didn't want to take Zhao's car right now.

Forget it, no matter how bad you are, you can't make fun of your body!

She lifted her skirt and boarded the carriage.

Sitting in the car, she intertwined her cold fingers, trying to warm them up a little bit, but it was of no use.

When she was so cold that she was shivering all over, she began to think about the question just now.

Maybe he didn't come on purpose, maybe he was busy...

The political affairs of the whole court are on him, and she knows how many official documents are piled up on the desk.

But then I thought about the poisoning of Nanxing.

How angry was he to learn that her father was involved?She wasn't sure either.

He is such a proud person and has such a temper, even if he refuses to take the initiative to talk to her, she can't blame him.

Not knowing whether it was caused by her body being too cold or her bad mood, she became dizzy for a while, and suddenly drowsiness hit her, and she slowly lowered her eyelashes.

The surrounding area is getting quieter and quieter.

Until there was a "bang" that shook the carriage violently, waking her up in a coma.

Zhao Xi slightly lifted the curtain of the car and looked around in doubt.

The trees are overgrown and uninhabited. This is in the wild.

Her pupils shrank suddenly, and she instantly realized what had happened—this car was hijacked!
not good!

She lifted the hem of her skirt and was about to jump off the car when her knees suddenly sank and her body was forcefully clamped.

"Jinxiu—" she opened her mouth, but before she could make a sound, a hand stretched out from behind, and a ball of rags was stuffed into her mouth.

At the same time, eyes suddenly went dark...

Zhao Xiwei didn't struggle or shout.

This is the wilderness here, except for the trees and grass, there is no human habitation, struggling and shouting can only use up one's physical strength.

The carriage continued to roll forward, she held her breath and forced herself to calm down quickly.

When she woke up, she didn't hear the voices of Jinxiu and the servant, so it meant that the carriage had already been controlled.

Luckily, fortunately, she is still conscious...

In other words, the assassin who hijacked her did not poison her.

But no one can guarantee what will happen next moment.

While she was still awake and physically strong, she had no choice but to find a way to save herself.

She fell into a coma just now, and she didn't know how long the carriage had been driving, so she couldn't tell where she was now.

But when she opened the curtain, she saw clearly.

She used to live in the countryside and was very familiar with the terrain of mountains and forests. From the dense forests, she could tell that this mountain was to the south of the capital.

The towering rocks and steep terrain on the mountain indicate that the vicinity is not suitable for people to live in, and it is not even suitable for hunting.

But the strange thing is that such a barren mountain has a very flat bluestone path.

Then it means that some people often come and go in and out of this mountain forest.

The carriage bumped all the way, which showed that the road was not smooth, and it could also be deduced that the people who often come and go here are not rich.

Occasionally, there is the smell of sandalwood in the wind, or a faint fragrance of wormwood.

Zhao Xiwei thought for a while, and then made a rough guess—there must be a small temple on this mountain.

The assassin definitely didn't want her life, otherwise she was a weak woman, and he could have sealed her throat with a sword.

It's not about making money, otherwise he should have asked for money when he first kidnapped her.

It's not for death, nor for money, just tie her up without saying a word, and take her to a temple deep in the mountains and old forests...

Thinking about it further down, there is a dense cold sweat on the back.

Thinking of the danger she might face next, her blood froze in that instant.

How to do?
Her arms were bound, her eyes were blindfolded and her mouth was gagged.

Even struggling, biting, and shouting are tantamount to a mayfly shaking a tree, in vain.

Do you want to be at the mercy of others?

Do not!
She can't sit still!
As long as she procrastinates, Li Xuanye will definitely come to rescue her!

With her mind made up, she forced herself to calm down again.

Only then did I notice that the speed of the carriage was slow, the wheels creaked, and the entire carriage seemed to be much heavier than before.

She tried to hold her breath and listened carefully. From the sound of her breathing, she could tell that there were at least three people in the car.

three people……

No matter how calm Zhao Xiwei was, he began to panic.

Boundless fear slowly rose from the back, as if a demon opened its huge mouth and exposed its muzzle fangs to her, and she would be ruthlessly torn apart by them anytime, anywhere.

"boom!"

The wheels jerked again.

"Hiss—" the horse roared to the sky.

At the same time, the carriage bumped up high, and under the impact of inertial force, the inner panel of the carriage shook violently.

"哗啦啦" There was a sound of planks cracking.

"Grandma's!" Someone outside the car yelled angrily, "The car hit a rock!"

"What's wrong! Trash!" The assassin in the car yelled angrily, and it sounded like he had a bad temper: "You can't drive a car, you idiot!"

"You can do it!" The one outside the car was also angry, "You and Mei Jiao Niang are in the car, let me sit outside alone and enjoy the cold wind!"

"Stop arguing!" A rough voice sounded again, "If you keep arguing again, I will chop everything up with a knife!"

"Kang Dang"

There was the sound of weapons.

"What? You have a knife and I don't?"

Both inside and outside the car were not convinced.

"Kang Dang"

Two more beeps.

The prince will appear tomorrow
