"Wait, don't worry. There are many guards in the Baohe Palace, and the angle is tricky and easy to miss. There will be a fireworks feast later, and there will be fewer people patrolling the roof of the palace. And they will definitely come from the palace to watch the fireworks. Come out of the garden. There are no obstacles in the garden, so it will be more successful." After the prince instructed, he also felt that his plan was bound to succeed, so he smiled triumphantly.

"Yes!" Chapin replied.

The banquet continued in full swing.

The emperor arranged singers with melodious singing voices and dancers with cheerful dancers to perform on stage for everyone. With the enthusiasm of the atmosphere, people also sang and danced to celebrate the victory of the war and the safe return of my prince and Princess Pingyang. And the hall is very exciting.

After dinner, the Empress prepared a cup of hot tea for everyone present.Everyone sipped tea and chatted. After a short break, Eunuch Liao reminded everyone present that it was an auspicious time to set off fireworks, and asked everyone to move to the imperial garden in the palace.

The Imperial Garden is just two doors away from the Palace of Preserving Harmony, and it didn't take too long until everyone was present.There are various types of flowers and plants in different seasons in the imperial garden, and there are even some rare treasures that cannot be found outside. The area is very large, so everyone standing is relatively sparse.

Fireworks are scarce and expensive, and they are really rare on weekdays.Even the aristocrats of all the famous families rarely let off the fireworks in person. Maybe when there is something to celebrate in the palace, the scene is more spectacular.Ladies from all the famous families like fireworks. Although they are short-lived, they are gorgeous, and even at that moment, they will always be remembered in their hearts.

Jiang Yue was no exception, looking at the sky above her head, except for a bright moon hanging on the horizon, it was pitch black, nothing was there, not even a few stars could be seen, as if blocked by invisible clouds .

But this can't stop Jiang Yue from looking forward to the fireworks. Her eyes are watery and full of expectation.

Gu Mo turned his head slightly to pay attention to her, and couldn't help feeling that her girlish appearance was really cute.But there are too many people here, and Gu Mo didn't dare to be too intimate with her, for fear of Jiang Yue's burden.

"Bam—"

A small flame suddenly flew into the sky and exploded, forming colorful fireworks.

The crowd was very noisy just now, but now it was quiet for an instant, with only a few insignificant exclamations from girls.

Jiang Yue was also concentrating on looking up at the sky with a beautiful smile.

Behind everyone, on the roof of the Hall of Preserving Harmony, a man in black was holding a bow and arrow, aiming at Jiang Yue who was quietly enjoying the fireworks in the crowd.

Jiang Yue didn't move much, aiming well.But Gu Mo, who was next to Jiang Yue, was always hovering beside Jiang Yue, blocking Jiang Yue's back and arms, making it difficult to predict his next move.

After all, what Cai Ping ordered was for him to shoot Jiang Yue, not for His Royal Highness the Prince of the Dingguo Mansion.

"Tsk..." The man in black looked impatiently at Gu Mo who was beside Jiang Yue.

No, I'm running out of time!He must shoot the arrow out quickly, and he must succeed in one shot!
After a while, he aimed at Jiang Yue again.

"call out--"

The man in black let go, and the arrow left the string in an instant, and shot straight and fast in Jiang Yue's direction.

Gu Mo was alert, heard the voice, and looked in the direction of the eaves of the Palace of Preserving Harmony.

But before it was too late, an arrow was flying towards Jiang Yue.

"Moon!"

Gu Mo's voice was so loud that the entire imperial garden echoed. Everyone was immediately attracted by this side, and they were not in the mood to watch the fireworks above their heads.

Jiang Yue didn't know what happened, so she turned her head to look in Gu Mo's direction.

But Gu Mo suddenly jumped up on him, hugging him tightly.

Gu Mo hugged Jiang Yue and tried his best to avoid it.

In the end, the arrow hit Gu Mo's arm.

The man in black on the roof of the Palace of Preserving Harmony was very angry when he saw that he had missed his hand, and flew into the dark sky with a light kung fu, and disappeared into the night.

Song Yan didn't know where he was just now, but when he saw it, he understood and chased in the direction where the man in black disappeared.

"Gu Mo!" Jiang Yue was terrified, looking at Gu Mo in the middle, her hands trembling.

She tried to calm herself down, but it was very difficult.With trembling hands, she carefully touched Gu Mo's face, trying to give him some comfort.

"Come on! Come on!" Jiang Yue was a little annoyed when she saw the clan children who were all around stunned.

"Call someone quickly!"

With Jiang Yue's heart-piercing cry, she finally called back the souls of these people.

The emperor and empress came here, seeing Gu Mo lying on the ground, she was also in a panic.

"Go quickly, Imperial Physician Xuan Xu is here!" the emperor shouted.

"Yes!" Eunuch Liao turned around and went to do it immediately.

"Don't be afraid, everyone. I have already ordered the guards to track down the assassin. What happened tonight is an assassination by the court, which is a death penalty for exterminating the nine clans! Who is so daring!"

The emperor knew very well that the person who arranged the assassin was in the imperial garden, and he wanted to warn him.

"Now that Duke Ding's son is injured, he must need to rest. Today's triumphal feast will be suspended for now, and we will discuss it later. You all go back, remember, don't make a fuss when you go back!" the emperor said majesticly.

"Yes." Everyone replied angrily.

The Fifth Prince squeezed through the crowd and walked out.

"My son!" The fifth prince squatted beside Gu Mo.

Jiang Yue looked at Gu Mo's wound, feeling very distressed.

"Does it hurt?" Jiang Yue muttered.

"It hurts." Gu Mo said without thinking, not wanting to miss any chance to make Jiang Yue feel sorry for her.

The wound is still bleeding, it must be painful.

Jiang Yue's eyes became more and more red, and the tears flowed down her eyes, crying like pear blossoms with rain.But apart from the occasional sound of breathing in, there was no other sound from Jiang Yue.

She also wanted Jiang Yue to feel sorry for herself, but Jiang Yue really loved her so much that she cried, but Gu Mo couldn't bear it anymore.

"I'm lying to you, I don't feel pain." Gu Mo coaxed, he looked at this, because he felt so sorry for himself that he was so aggrieved that he cried, his heart felt itchy, and he couldn't stand it.

"You liar! Your forehead is sweating all the time, and your lips are turning white... Where is the imperial physician! Why hasn't the imperial physician come yet!" Jiang Yue hugged Gu Mo's upper body and lay on her lap, anxiously looking back and forth at the imperial physician Have you arrived.

"You were the one who blocked the arrows for me before, but now I am the one who blocked the arrows for you." Gu Mo smiled.

"Then, is it clear?" Jiang Yue couldn't figure out what Gu Mo meant.

"Whoever wants to be cleared, don't want to be cleared. You saved me, and I helped you. Now that I have saved you, remember to treat me well in the future!" Gu Mo said shamelessly.

Jiang Yue couldn't help being amused by him.

"What time is it! You still have the heart to make these jokes!" Jiang Yue hated iron for steel.
