The prosperous imperial concubine: the medical princess

Chapter 18 The Assassin Enters the Mansion
"What did you do? Why can't you kill even a woman?!" Knowing that Su Ying was still working well, Wan Yan was furious.

"Your Majesty, calm down... Our brothers did push her into the pond that night... There are several big stones tied to her legs, it is impossible for her to escape..." The attendant explained anxiously.

Wan Yan slammed the table and stared angrily: "Then tell me, the girl who was alive and kicking around during the day is probably still a ghost?!"

"Maybe... maybe someone saved her..." Another person approached and said.

"Save her?" Wan Yan narrowed her eyes slightly, lowered her head and thought for a while: "This Su Ying just came to the Prince's Mansion and is unfamiliar with the place, so there are only two dowry maids by her side, who else can save her?" ? Huh, I think you two are not good at handling things, just looking for excuses to shirk!"

"Your Majesty calm down, please give us two brothers another chance, and this time, Su Ying will never return."

Angrily, Wan Yan took the teacup from the servant girl's hand, took a sip of the tea and said coldly, "If you don't succeed this time, you two will cut off your arms when you come back!"

The two men hurriedly knelt down on the ground tremblingly: "Yes, ma'am."

In the past few days, Su Ying has been keeping close to Jing Ge in order to prevent her from being murdered again, and she no longer goes for a walk in the back mountain at night, but stays in the room honestly. She thinks that this should be the same Everything is safe, right?It's a pity that she was too naive. She thought that at least she would be upright in the mansion during the day, and there shouldn't be any mistakes. Even if Su Ying did it intentionally, it was impossible for her to follow Jing Ge every step of the way, so When Jing Ge went to take a bath, Su Ying took her maid for a walk in the yard for a while.

At this moment, the sunset was just around the corner, and a fiery cloud in the sky dyed the sky bright red. Occasionally, a few birds returning to their nests made a few chirps, and there seemed to be slight movements in the grass.

"Miss, let's go back quickly. His Royal Highness may have finished bathing." Abi said nervously. My young lady was murdered again, and the prince and aunt, although he was really considerate to the young lady, he was still just a fool, and there were really limited things he could do.

Su Ying looked at the sky, then glanced at the two teams of guards in front of the opposite pavilion, took Abi's hand towards her and said, "Okay, don't worry, we'll just go back."

When Su Ying touched Abi's hand, cold sweat broke out, and then she looked at Arjuna's worried face opposite, and felt guilty in her heart, thinking that the two little girls had suffered enough with her when they came to Su's mansion, and now But she still has to follow her to the Prince's Mansion to be frightened. Su Ying is a modern soul at heart, and has no idea about the ranks of the ancients. She just regards them as her good sisters, so she doesn't want them to worry about herself. .

"Ah Zhu Abi, what kind of husband do you like to have? Do you want me to choose a good family for you to marry?" Su Ying asked suddenly.

A'Zhu and A'bi were slightly taken aback after hearing this, they didn't understand why she asked this question so abruptly, they couldn't help but looked at each other for a while.

"Miss, why did you suddenly say such a thing?"

"Miss has just entered the Prince's Mansion, this dangerous place, without the two of us, what would you do?"

Su Ying smiled and said nothing, but she couldn't help but say the thoughts that flashed through her mind just now, mainly because she didn't plan to stay in the Prince's Mansion for a long time, and she was only planning for herself before. The arrangement of how to escape, but he forgot the destination of the two girls beside him. Now that he thinks about it, he realizes how irresponsible he is.

"Miss, I heard that men are not good things. Look at that General Qin, how kind he was to you when he was a child. He kept saying that he wanted to marry you, but now there is no one. But this prince, although he is really simple , but you couldn’t even keep your concubine, and you were almost framed, I don’t think it’s too bad.” Abi pursed her lips.

A Zhu on the opposite side immediately stepped on her foot: "Abi! You're outspoken again!" Then he took a quick look at Su Ying's fading expression, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Miss, don't be surprised, that's how she talks. without brain."

Abi also quickly stuck out her tongue belatedly: "Yes... I'm sorry, miss! I didn't mean to mention that General Qin to make you sad! I... I will slap myself!"

"It's okay, don't worry..." Su Ying forced a smile and took her hand.

"Then...you are now treating General Qin..." Abi raised her head and glanced at her tentatively.

Su Ying sighed slightly, and said wistfully, "What can I do? As you said, men are unreliable, so it's better to rely on yourself to be honest."

"Well, what the lady said is true."

"Don't talk so much, let's go back earlier." Su Ying waved her hand, and then she and the two of them walked across the cobbled path together, preparing to walk along the garden towards the courtyard.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a sudden movement in the grass on the opposite side, and in the blink of an eye, two men in black with big knives rushed out of it.

"You... who are you?!" Abi cried out in surprise, before the words fell, the knife shadow had already stabbed at her fiercely. Fortunately, Su Ying pushed her subconsciously, and the blade just fell from Abi. Passing by in front of him, however, the blade turned quickly and slashed towards Su Ying.

It seemed that their target was herself. Su Ying was shocked, so she had to turn her head and run wildly, and the two assassins followed closely behind.

Abi was pushed and fell to the ground, she was so frightened that she couldn't hold back, and Azhu immediately shouted at the top of her voice, "Come here! There are assassins!!!"

The call was deafening, but the guards near the opposite pavilion seemed to be deaf, and no one stepped forward to make a rescue. Su Ying had to run all the way to the peony garden, but how could she be the opponent of those two big men?But for a moment, she was exhausted and fell to the ground. Seeing the shining blade slashing towards her face, Su Ying subconsciously closed her eyes tightly.

I don't want to, in an instant, there seemed to be a gust of wind rushing across, and I heard a crisp sound of swords colliding, and then I heard the assassin on the opposite side exclaim: "Who?!"

Su Ying waited for a while, seeing that the knife hadn't come to her for a long time, she couldn't help but feel suspicious, and after a long time of reconciliation in a daze, she mustered up the courage to squint her eyes and found that the person standing in front of her was actually another person. A man in black was holding a long sword. Unlike the two hulking assassins, this man in black was tall and straight, even from behind, Su Ying felt inexplicably familiar.
