Empress, she is beautiful Lu Ziye

Chapter 199 Assassin
The palace is no better than the pavilion, it looks fortified, there are guards everywhere, it seems to be very safe, but in fact there are dangers everywhere, if you are not careful, you will fall into a trap.

If she prepares more self-defense items, the master's safety will be more guaranteed.

"By the way," Qingying turned around, and took out a sandalwood box from the cabinet, which was simply carved with patterns, and there was a faint fragrance when it was opened, "Master, this is for the maid beside you."

Inside the box lies a silver hairpin with a long and slender handle, and the top is coiled with silver thread into the shape of a peony.

Nan Zhen reached out to take it, held it in her hand and looked at it, "Hidden weapon?"

"Yes."

She pinched one of the petals, twisted it lightly, and two silver needles flew out of it, as thin as a hair, but pierced the candle facing it.

Qingying explained, "We can't appear by your side rashly, but Dongyue doesn't know martial arts. If something happens, she can resist it, so she won't be caught without a fight."

"It's hard for you to think so thoroughly."

Nan Zhen stuffed the box into the package with a smile, straddled her shoulders, and walked out along the way when she came, "There is no need to deliver it, you should rest earlier."

"Master, please be careful."

Nan Zhen came out of Mingyue Pavilion stepping on the sound of drums, walking briskly through the streets and alleys.

The bitter cold wind kept most people at home, too lazy to come out, and there were very few people who came home at night like her.

"when!"

"It's dry, be careful with candles—"

The watchman's voice was loud, piercing through several streets, and reaching her ears steadily.

It sounded like she was walking towards her, getting closer.

"when!"

Another sound.

"The sky is dry and things are dry, be careful... ah!"

Halfway through the conversation, he suddenly panicked.

Watching the men in black flying past the high walls on both sides, the watchman was so frightened that he quickly stopped talking, and found a pillar in front of the Mipu door to hide.

The movements are extremely familiar, as if they have been done thousands of times.

As the new year approached, there were more and more similar incidents. During the few days he was on duty alone, there were more than five incidents.

Could it be that these assassins are also rushing to earn money for the New Year?

Previously, we encountered a small fight, but this time the atmosphere was obviously different. He grabbed the column and quietly poked his head out to look out.

The man in black melted into the night, running along the ridge of the roof, stepping on tiles from time to time, making a small crashing sound.

Their target is a man two feet away.

"call out--"

The sharp arrow pierced through the air and aimed at the man, but was deflected and dodged by the man.

The rest of the people surrounded him from the other side, trying to stop him from dodging with long knives.

Lin Jue saw the gap, and slipped out of the saber and sword, as nimble as a loach.

But when Fei flew down to the roof, he staggered, and his knees directly hit the stone slab, which made his heart ache.

The opponent approached step by step, and the knife was close in front of his eyes, and he swung it towards his neck. He gritted his teeth and rolled to the corner of the wall by inertia.

Seeing that there was no way to retreat, Lin Jue was also a little desperate, closed his eyes, felt the flash of cold light, and clenched his fists tightly.

Unexpectedly, I escaped the open and dark arrows in the court, and finally got stuck in this small back alley.

He was a little unwilling.

As expected, the pain did not come.

When the blade was about to cut his neck, the blade was suddenly hit by a silver needle flying from the deep alley, trembling violently and buzzing.

At the same time when the silver needle hit the blade, Lin Jue suddenly opened his eyes, and saw the murderous assassin slowly fall down in front of him.

Before he could react, someone covered his mouth from behind and dragged him into the rice shop behind him.
