Chapter 261
Lian Xin nodded heavily: "Okay, as long as I'm with my sister, I can go anywhere."

Su Yao took her hand, squeezed it away gently, and saw the palm of her hand that was cut because of holding the tile tightly: "Does your chest still feel uncomfortable?"

"It's okay, I've been resistant to beatings since I was a child, so it's fine."

Su Yao turned to look at Mu Cixiu: "Is there any medicine?"

"You..." Mu Cixiu didn't want to waste any more time, but seeing Su Yao's firm gaze, he could only look at the guard at the side, and just uttered a word, the next moment he suddenly exclaimed: "Su Yao, be careful! !"

Not far away, an archer drew a bow with a red arrow, and the bowstring was like a full moon, aiming at exactly where Su Yao was.

Before Su Yao had time to react, he felt a pair of small hands push his chest hard, and fell down uncontrollably.

The feathered arrow flew past her ear and brushed her cheek, with a muffled bang, the long feathered arrow slammed into Lian Xin's chest, piercing through her thin and thin body, and the sharp arrow shot through her body with bloodstains. out!

Su Yao only felt that the scene in front of her was infinitely slowed down. She watched Lian Xin take a few steps back by the force of the feather arrow, and then fell to the ground with a bang.

The voice in the ear disappeared, only the thick bloodstain that could not be melted away.

Su Yao got up mechanically, threw herself to Lian Xin, and hugged her in his arms: "Lian... Lian Xin..."

"Sister...Sister..." Lian Xin blinked non-stop, tears fell from the corners of her eyes, she looked at Su Yao, her eyes were still as clear and transparent as before, "You are fine...that's great..."

"Lian Xin, why... why are you so stupid?"

"Sister... don't be sad, I can... I can go to my father and mother... I listened to them very much, I worked hard... I worked hard to survive, and I was not killed as a human sacrifice..."

"Lian Xin..." Su Yao bit her lip in pain, tears could not stop falling, "Don't be afraid, Mr. Mei... Where is Mr. Mei? He is a doctor, he knows medical skills, he will save you! If he has medical skills If you are not good at it, I will take you to the capital, there is Taoist Wuchen in the capital, his medical skills are superb... surely nothing will happen to you..."

"Sister..." Lian Xin stretched out her hand to touch her cheek, her little palm was icy cold, "Sister, outside...is there really...no one sacrificed outside?"

Su Yao swallowed painfully, suppressed the heart-piercing pain, and managed to make a sound: "Yes, there are no human sacrifices outside. As long as you leave Fengqiao County, no one will be treated as a human sacrifice again." Yes. My sister told you that she has a big garden with flowers in spring, lotuses in summer, fragrant osmanthus in autumn, and snow in winter with pines and emerald green..."

"That's great..." Lian Xin murmured softly, the corners of her lips slightly raised, and then slowly closed her eyes.

"Lian Xin... Lian Xin!"

Mei Lao ran over quickly, reached out and touched Lian Xin's neck, then shook his head slightly: "The feather arrow pierced the heart vein, and there is no pulse."

Su Yao was trembling all over, and managed to put her hand on the tip of Lian Xin's nose several times. After she really couldn't feel the breath, she couldn't help sobbing in pain: "She's still a child...still such a small child!"

Mu Cixiu stepped forward and grabbed Su Yao's shoulder: "There will be assassins coming soon, let's go quickly."

Su Yao's eyes were red, and tears kept streaming down: "Who was it just now?"

"The clothes are the same as Chu Feiyan's dark guard. I don't know who it is."

"Human, I want to avenge Lian Xin!"

"Su Yao, stop making trouble."

"A living human life is gone in front of you, tell me to stop making trouble?" Su Yao asked back with red eyes, her whole body was in a mess.

The first time she saw Lian Xin, she seemed to see herself in the orphanage. At that time, what she longed for most was someone who could reach out and lead her out of the four walls.

Therefore, she stretched out her hand to Lian Xin without hesitation, but she didn't expect that in the end, she actually took her life!

Mu Cixiu frowned, raised his hand and slashed at Su Yao's neck with a knife, then reached out to catch him, and directly picked him up by the waist and put him on the horse's back.

"Take Lian Xin's body, and after leaving Fengqiao County, bury her in the ground."

"Yes, son."

Old Mei sighed, and just as he was about to follow, he saw Mu Cixiu and the others jump on their horses and leave without hesitation.

Looking at the cloud of smoke, Mrs. Mei couldn't help snorting, and then reached out to pat the dirty clothes: "Just like the little girl, I don't know how to respect the elderly at all. Hmph, there are times when you cry." Go towards the gate of the city.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion in Kyoto, Taoist Master Wu Chen wiped off the sweat on his head, looked at Elder Ning Ge with a haggard face and said, "Okay, fortunately, I didn't disgrace my life, and let Prime Minister Chu escape."

Elder Ning Ge suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and couldn't help shaking: "Are you all right?"

"It can't be said that nothing happened at all, it can only be said that it survived for the time being."

"That's good, that's good." Old Ning Ge staggered to find a chair and sat down, heaved a sigh of relief, "Ming Chen, how is the investigation going?"

They didn't expect that someone would dare to assassinate in the palace.

When Chu Feiyan went to court, he would not have brought secret guards into the palace, and the famous officials were also led away and failed to protect him personally, so that the assassin's sneak attack succeeded.

"The emperor is furious, and has already begun to thoroughly investigate the inner palace. However, since the mastermind behind the scenes has the ability to do something in the palace, he also has a way to cover up his whereabouts, so that no one can find any clues."

"That's right." Elder Ning Ge only felt a headache, "Miss Su hasn't been seen yet, and Feiyan fell down again. It's really a leaky house and it's raining all night."

At this moment, Feng Qi quickly ran in with the letter: "Old Ning Ge, I'm looking for a letter from Miss Su's secret guard."

"Bring it quickly."

Veteran Ning Ge opened the letter, and when he saw the contents, his whole body suddenly sank.

Daoist Wu Chen thought in his heart that the situation was not good, and quickly asked, "What's wrong?"

"The dark guards were about to rescue Su Yao. I didn't expect someone to assassinate her and even burn down Su Yao's boat. Now, she, Mu Cixiu and others fell into the water, and their whereabouts are unknown."

"Assassination? Why is Miss Su Yao also... Wait, what about Mu Qingchen, both sides are attacking, there is no reason to let Mu Qingchen go..."

Elder Ning Ge's heart became more and more heavy: "Minister, let people pay attention to Mu Qingchen's side immediately, and see if someone else has done it?"

"Yes."

"Yao'er..." Chu Feiyan exclaimed by the bed and woke up suddenly.

Old Ning Ge hurried forward: "Feiyan, how do you feel?"

Chu Feiyan slowly opened his eyes, staring straight at the void, his pale eyes gradually filled with pain: "I seem...to hear Yao'er's cry..."
