The Empress is running again

Chapter 26 Assassin, Savior

Looking at Ning Xin running in the wind, Rong Jiuyue really wanted to say, she doesn't know her!
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is not well, Mr. Rong is gone!" Ning Xin rushed to Quan Yin and knelt down and cried, looking pitiful.

Quan Yin raised his eyebrows coldly. "Missing?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, you, please send someone to look for it. If there is something wrong with your nobleman...your...your nobleman!" Ning Xin raised her eyes and saw Rong Jiuyue standing behind Quan Yin as if she had seen a ghost. of.

"You just said, where did she go?" Quan Yin blocked Ning Xin's gaze to Rong Jiuyue and asked in a cold voice.

Ning Xin trembled, stirring the handkerchief with both hands. "Slave, servant girl..."

"If you don't know, drag it down to sacrifice to the mountain."

There was a fire on the mountain tonight for no reason. If you really want to tell the myth, you can also say that the mountain god was angry. It is not uncommon to use living people to sacrifice to the mountain!
Rong Jiuyue's heart tightened, if something wrong with Ning's heart aroused his suspicion, they would all die!
"Before the nobleman left, he only said to go to the emperor..."

"anything else?"

"No, no more, the servant said that he wanted to accompany the nobleman, but the nobleman said that it was inconvenient for the servant to go... So, I didn't let the servant follow..."

"The emperor's dragon body is something you, a girl, can watch in movies." Rong Jiuyue muttered in a low voice, and Quan Yin could definitely hear that voice!
"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager is waiting for you in the Buddhist hall." Yun Kai walked forward and said in a low voice.

Quan Yin glanced across Rong Jiuyue's face calmly, seeing her look at him with an infatuated look and a little shyness, the darkness in her eyes gradually dissipated. "Go back to the house first, and don't leave without my order."

"The concubine obeys the order." Rong Jiuyue was not reconciled, but at this moment she had to bow her head.

It wasn't until Quan Yin and his party walked away that the master and servant seemed to come back to life.

"My lord, I really scared the slaves to death just now!"

I was scared to death too, okay!
"My lord, haven't you already left? Why are you with the emperor?"

Rong Jiuyue looked around. "Let's go back first."

On the way back to the guest house, Rong Jiuyue could clearly feel the tense atmosphere in the temple.

"My lord, just now I heard that King Lanzang seems to have been assassinated again."

Walking to a small dark corner, Ning Xin couldn't help but gossip.

"again?"

"Yes, and then the assassin escaped, and King Lanzang ordered the temple to be sealed off and searched."

Because there was a fire on the mountain, many monks and guards in the temple were sent to fight the fire. When they returned to the guest house, no one was seen.

"My lord, why are you... ah!"

"Shut up! Don't move, or I will kill you!"

The moment Ning Xin pushed the door open and entered, a cold sword glowing with silver light lay across the necks of the two of them.

Ning Xin shut her mouth in fright.

Rong Jiuyue was stunned for a moment and then looked at the other party. Her head and face were covered with a black cloth and black scarf, only her eyes were exposed. She was a woman by her figure and voice.

"Are you the assassin who assassinated King Lanzang?"

"Shut up! Believe it or not, I'll kill you immediately!"

Rong Jiuyue glanced at Leng Jian who was a little closer to her neck, she might have guessed right just now.

"Go and sit over there, if you dare to call..."

"Just kill us, okay, I'll listen to you." Rong Jiuyue and Ning Xin found a small corner and squatted on the ground.

The assassin carefully observed the situation outside, as if waiting for the opportunity to escape.

"The back mountain is on fire, and the security of the guards is a little loose. If you escape now, you have a relatively high hope of being able to leave."

As an assassin, Fan Qingli looked at her coldly. "Why should I trust you?"

Rong Jiuyue looked at her with a smile. "Because the person you want to assassinate has nothing to do with half of my copper coin. As long as you don't hurt me, what does it matter to me whether you leave or not?"

While the two were talking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside.

Fan Qingli clenched the sword in his hand and his body became tense.

"You are injured, if you are besieged by those guards, you will definitely die."

Fan Qingli looked at her silently.

"Trust me, I will protect your life."

"Why?"

"Because you have no choice but to trust me."

The sword in Fan Qingli's hand was clenched suddenly. "Okay, I'll trust you once, if you lie to me, I'll die with you!" After saying those words, she dodged and hid.

When Rong Jiuyue stood up, there was a knock on the door.

"Your honor is here."

Rong Jiuyue took off the clothes on her body and changed into a nightgown and lay down on the bed as if she was not awake, and signaled Ning Xin to go out to deal with it.

Ning Xin didn't understand why Rong Jiuyue wanted to save an assassin, but she cooperated and went forward to open the door. "My lord has fallen asleep, what's the matter?"

The guard standing outside the door had a serious face, looking a little bluffing.

"King Lanzang was assassinated. The assassin fled but was still in the temple. The emperor ordered a strict search. I hope you will forgive me if I offend you."

This means entering the house!

"Bold! The house of our nobleman is open to all of you who want to enter!"

"We are following the orders of the emperor, please don't make things difficult for us."

"You, you..."

"Ning Xin." Rong Jiuyue's voice came from the room.

"My lord."

"Let them send two people in to search, don't delay everyone's rest time at night."

Ning Xin was still a little displeased, but she had to get out of the way.

The leader of the guards winked at the people around him, and the two entered the room.

The decoration of the guest house is very simple, except for a cabinet and the bottom of the bed where people can hide, everything else is clear at a glance.

After looking at it for a while, the two set their sights on Rong Jiuyue's bed.

Rong Jiuyue lay there covered with a quilt.

"Why, you still want to lift the quilt of the nobleman, but if the nobleman is frightened or something goes wrong, can you afford it!" Ning Xin stood in front of the bed and stopped him.

The guard thought that Rong Jiuyue would not hide the assassin for no reason, so he didn't go forward.

"I have offended you, and I will retire."

Ning Xin watched those people walk out of the courtyard, and quickly closed and locked the door.

"My lord, those people are really hateful."

Rong Jiuyue lifted the quilt, and Fan Qingli got out from inside.

"Thank you for saving your life."

"It only takes half a quarter of an hour from here to the back gate of the temple. After a quarter of an hour, the guards at the back gate will change. You can escape at that time."

If it was said that he had to save Rong Jiuyue just now because he threatened Rong Jiuyue, what does it mean now.

"Why do you want to save me?"

Rong Jiuyue frowned. "I am willing, you owe me a life, don't forget to repay me in the future."

"I, Fanqing Li, have clear grievances and grievances. When the matter is properly handled, I will do my best to repay the benefactor."

Rong Jiuyue nodded with a smile. "Then I'll wait for you."

In the Buddhist hall of Thousand Buddha Temple, Quan Yin sat on the main seat, the queen mother sat next to him, and Quan Yu sat at the bottom.

"Your Majesty, we have searched and found no assassin." Yun Kai stepped forward and reported.

The queen mother looked at Quan Yu. "Yu'er, are you sure the assassin is still in the temple? Could he have escaped?"
