Chapter 220 Assassination
Mu Jiuqing and Prince Donglin followed on horseback.

The two of them didn't really want to go to the academy, but Mu Mingxue went to the academy on the first day, and Mu Jiuqing didn't feel at ease if she didn't follow her, so she asked Zisu to follow her and protect her.

A carriage, a coachman, and two hidden guards escorted him out of Beijing.

Passing through the woods, suddenly the horse screamed in panic.

Mu Jiuqing glanced at Feng Mingjue, his eyes darkened, "There are assassins."

At the end of the words, a group of men in black jumped out of the woods, surrounded them with long swords in their hands, and chopped at the Prince Donglin without saying a word.

The obvious target is Feng Mingjue.

Mu Mingxue turned pale with fright and hid in the carriage, not daring to come out.

Seeing this, Mu Jiuqing signaled Zisu to take her away first.

Ying Qi tightly guarded the boy.

The goal of the man in black is to kill Prince Donglin.

Others don't care at all.

Zisu took the sixth girl away in a carriage.

Mu Jiuqing looked back, and immediately flew over to help.

The cold sword was unsheathed, and several men in black quickly fell down.

The sword technique is extremely fast, and one sword seals the throat.

The man in black glanced at the girl in front of him in shock, his cold eyes flashed, and he quietly issued a signal to continue to call for reinforcements.

I didn't expect that there was such a person on the other side.

There were only three of them, and it was too much for them to fight repeatedly.

Near the outskirts of the capital, it is impossible to send a message to inform Donglin Shadow Guard to come to rescue him.

After fighting for a while, the three of them were covered in blood and killed many men in black.

The other party didn't seem to plan to retreat, and vowed to kill Prince Donglin.

Mu Jiuqing chopped down a man in black, and said to Ying Qi, "Take him away first."

Feng Mingjue was not willing to leave, his eyes were gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Put smoke bombs and call for help."

Ying Qi was a little hesitant, these people were probably sent by the third prince.

Once the Donglin shadow guards are dispatched, Xihuang knows that he will definitely not let the Donglin shadow guards lurk in the capital.

His Highness the Prince will also be imprisoned for this.

Maybe they can take the opportunity to take His Highness to escape from the capital and return directly to Donglin.

But in this way, Xichu has every reason to send people to hunt him down.

Ying Qi had a hard time making a choice.

While they were scribbling, the black clothes began to attack together again.

And at this moment, a carriage passed by, it was the carriage of Prince Ji's Mansion.

There are also a few sons of aristocratic families.

As the leader, Prince Ji, seeing them being chased and killed, he did not sit idly by.

Quickly come to the rescue.

Seeing them, the three secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

In addition, there are many dark guards.

Ji Ning charged up with the hidden guards and a few nobles from aristocratic families, their martial arts were not weak.

The man in black soon couldn't resist.

There is no way but to retreat.

After the people left, Mu Jiuqing and the others stepped forward and thanked them one by one, "Thank you, Young Master Ji, Third Young Master Situ, Second Young Master Pei..."

Without them passing by and drawing their swords to help today, I really don't know what would have happened.

At this time, Ji Tang was worried about his brother, got out of the carriage and came over, "Are you all right?"

Seeing Mu Jiuqing, Ji Tang still dodged subconsciously, as if he had a guilty conscience, and there was still a trace of fear. His eyes dodged, and finally his eyes fell on Prince Donglin. Seeing that he was covered in blood, he thought he was injured. Walking up to Ji Ning, looking at his blushing cheeks, he said, "Prince Donglin is injured? Do you want someone to bandage him?"

Yesterday, the two met by accident on the street. Her purse was stolen by a thief. He just passed by and saw her and snatched her back. Therefore, his affection for him gradually increased. After returning, his mind was full of his appearance.

Thinking about it, Ji Tang's cheeks turned redder, and he was ashamed to look at him.

Mu Jiuqing frowned slightly and glanced at Feng Mingjue. She didn't know about it yet, but yesterday she added an extra amount of merit coins. Judging by Ji Tang's expression, it must be Feng Mingjue's hero who saved the beauty! !
It was just a little effort, Feng Mingjue didn't take it to heart at all, but Ji Ning did him a big favor today, so he couldn't face his sister coldly, and said, "I'm fine, thank you Princess Haitang for your concern. "

Ji Tang raised her eyes and glanced at him quickly. Just as she was about to say something, she suddenly saw a cold arrow shot towards his back. She rushed over without thinking, "Be careful."

It happened so suddenly that no one expected it, but the cold arrow pierced her shoulder.

Mu Jiuqing and several families were inspecting the man in black, but they didn't pay attention at all. When they heard the voice and looked back, they saw the scene of Ji Tang falling down.

Feng Mingjue's face changed slightly, he hurriedly supported her, a little shocked and didn't know what to say.

Never thought that a woman would defend him without hesitation.

Ji Ning yelled "Tang'er" several times in shock.

Ji Tang is a weak lady from a great family, how could she bear such an injury, she called out "Brother" and fainted in the arms of Prince Donglin.

Feng Mingjue picked him up and got into the carriage of Prince Ji's Mansion.

Ji Ning followed, and the group hurried back to the capital.

...

Mu Jiuqing looked at the anxious expression on his face before he left, and was stunned for a while before he recovered. Suddenly, the scene of them being together in the previous life appeared in his mind. , and I am an outsider after all.

That's good too, so as not to annoy him.

But why does this heart feel a little uncomfortable, as if the pressure of a thousand gold stones makes it difficult to breathe...

At this time, a young man came galloping on horseback.

"Little five."

Mu Jiuqing was a little surprised, "Brother Xian, why are you here?"

Yun Xian got off the horse and nervously pulled her to look up and down, "Are you okay, why is it all blood?"

Seeing that her blue shirt and white clothes were all dyed red, Yun Xian turned pale with fright.

"I'm fine, it's not my blood."

"How did you know I was assassinated?"

Mu Jiuqing looked at him, and his dull mood dissipated a bit.

Yun Xian said, "I have something to go to the Royal Academy. On the way, I met the carriage of Prince Ji's Mansion. I saw the hidden guard of Prince Donglin with blood on his body. I guessed that something happened to you, so I rushed over to have a look."

Glancing at the fallen men in black, he asked again, "Did these people assassinate you? Or did they assassinate Prince Donglin?"

Mu Jiuqing pursed his lips, "The prince is facing east."

Yun Xian looked at her blood-stained clothes, feeling really scared, "I'll take you home."

Mu Jiuqing glanced at Second Young Master Pei and the others, and said, "Thank you all for today, please ask for a leave of absence for me."

Pei Yu smiled, "The princess is frightened, we will explain the situation to the head of the mountain, don't worry."

Mu Jiuqing nodded, thanked him again, got on his horse and went back to Beijing with Yun Xian.

When I arrived at the palace, I saw Li Shao running over in a hurry, "Jiu'er."

I heard that when she was assassinated, he was still in court at the Golden Luan Hall.

The assassination of Xiaojunzhu and Prince Donglin shocked the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty.

He dared to act blatantly near the capital, and he didn't know who was so bold and presumptuous.

The emperor ordered a thorough investigation.

This matter is handed over to the prince.

He rushed to the palace in the next court, just in time to meet her coming back.

Mu Jiuqing jumped off his horse and said, "I'm fine, let's talk about it after entering the mansion."

Li Shao nodded, only then did he realize that there was a boy following her.

It's Young Master Yun, his new junior brother.

The two had met each other a long time ago, and were considered acquaintances.

Seeing him, Li Shao frowned slightly, "Why didn't brother Yun go to the Imperial College?"
