Chapter 40 Confession

Si Tian and Pei Yunkuang looked at the man at the same time, only to see that he was dressed in night clothes, covered his face with a black cloth, holding a long sword in his hand, and stabbing straight at him.

Si Tian was shocked, his first thought was that he was here to assassinate Pei Yunkuang, however, the point of the sword was pointed at his throat.

Pei Yunkuang was shocked, and pulled her back two steps quickly, narrowly avoiding the edge.

He called out anxiously: "Come on! There are assassins!"

The guards he brought with him were all waiting in the corridor, because he wanted to talk to her privately, so he didn't let them wait outside the door.He never expected that someone in the chess club would break through the window to assassinate him tonight.

Footsteps and yelling sounded immediately in the corridor, and the man in black rushed forward with two swords in a hurry. His moves were all aimed at Si Tian's vital points. Pei Yunkuang knew kung fu, but at the moment he was unarmed, and he needed to Looking at her, he dodged in a very embarrassing manner!
The man in black pierced Si Tian's heart sharply with his sword, and the situation was extremely critical!In desperation, he quickly kicked the man's lower abdomen, and grabbed the oncoming sword with one hand.The sword of the man in black is so fast and fierce, how can the palm of flesh and blood block it?However, he didn't bother to think about it, and he shot without the slightest hesitation.The sword slashed across his palm and stabbed her shoulder with his blood.

Her exclamation was like a sharp sword piercing his heart, and in an instant, cold sweat covered his back and forehead.

The door was kicked open, and the guards rushed in. The man in black leaped out of the window with his sword in hand, and the two guards rushed out.

"Let them chase, and the others stay here." He ordered, looked at her shoulder, blood was gushing out, her face was pale, she didn't know whether it was fear or panic, she stared at him blankly, like a dream When she first woke up, a cloud of mist covered her eyes.

He said anxiously: "Go and call the doctor."

A guard hurried forward, took out the Jinchuang medicine that he carried with him, and handed it to him.He took the medicine bottle, without caring about his injured hand, sprinkled the medicine on her shoulder, his concern was confused, his fingers trembled slightly, and a lot of the medicine powder scattered.

"My lord, your hand." The guard was very surprised by his actions, terrified, looking at the blood on his hands.

He pressed her wound with Sipa first, then handed the medicine to the guard, and then spread his hands.

She pressed her shoulders tightly, barely daring to breathe vigorously due to the pain.The blood in his palm dripped from between his fingers to the ground, and the open palm was blood red, and several fingers were injured. If the force was stronger, the fingers might be cut off.

She looked at his palm, and the city defense she had built in her heart collapsed in an instant.Counting it, this was the second time he had saved her life.

The doctor came soon, and after bandaging, he prescribed medicine and told me to leave.

There were a few drops of blood dripping from his hands on the ground, which was shocking.She sat on the bed and looked away. She couldn't look or think too much. Now that she had made up her mind and understood the situation, she couldn't look back and hesitate again.

She whispered: "My lord, go back quickly. It's not safe here."

She knew that he was looking at her and worried about her. The moment he shot just now, she knew that she was not worthless in his heart. She was afraid that if she stayed with him for a moment longer, she would lose the courage and strength to build a new city defense .

He didn't speak, but looked at her, afraid and glad.

She didn't dare to meet his gaze, she was very afraid of sinking, and hardened her heart desperately.

He didn't leave immediately, waiting for news.After a while, the two men who were chasing the assassin came back and told him that they failed to catch up with the man. It seemed that he was familiar with the terrain of the chess club and got away quickly.

Could it be that Pei Siyu sent someone to silence him?For morning business?But he ruled out this idea, it would be too obvious, with his usual style, even if he had such an idea, he would never make it so obvious.What's more, only Xie Cong and Mei Hanlin knew about this matter. He didn't need to take the risk to get rid of Si Tian. The matter has come to this point. On the contrary, the impression of him is even worse.

Who would that be?He is so familiar with the chess club and knows that she lives in this room.

After a while, the guards dispatched another ten hidden guards from the palace, and he decided to go back in peace.

The moment he got up, he accidentally touched the armrest, and suddenly gasped, the white cloth wrapped around his palm oozes blood red.

Seeing it in her eyes, she felt that her eye sockets were very astringent. It seemed that what she owed him was always the old ones and new ones.

He glanced sideways at her, and said in a low voice, "You should rest and recuperate well, I have called the hidden guards over, don't worry."

She nodded.

Standing by the door, he turned around suddenly: "Do you still remember the day when you were in danger on Lanzhou Mountain?"

Her heart tightened, and she whispered: "Remember."

He said slowly: "At that time, I didn't know why I listened to him and let him go."

Her heart skipped a beat.

He paused, and said, "I understand now." After speaking, he turned and left.

A tear, which she had endured for a long time, slipped from the corner of her eye in an instant.

He returned to the palace, passed Xu's courtyard, and saw her bedroom was still lit from a distance, he stopped for a moment, and walked over.

Mrs. Xu was still asleep, she was taken aback when she saw him, her gaze fell on his hands, and she said in surprise, "My lord, what's wrong with you?"

He sat down, looking a little tired.

"Go get some porridge."

Mrs. Xu hurriedly ordered the girl to prepare porridge.

She squatted in front of him, tears streaming down her cheeks, she didn't dare to cry, she held his hand and sobbed softly: "My lord, are you seriously injured?"

He looked at her and sighed: "Whether it's heavy or not, don't you know?"

She looked up suddenly, her face pale.

"My lord, what do you mean?"

"What do I mean, don't you know?"

"My lord, I don't understand."

"You haven't slept so late, isn't it just waiting for a news, what you waited for is not what you want, and you can't sleep because you feel so uncomfortable?" He whispered, it was gentler than ever before.

Her face grew paler.

"If someone wants to assassinate this king, they will definitely not send only one assassin. And this person is obviously not targeting this king, only targeting her. He just wants to kill her."

"My lord, what do you mean by that? Could it be that you misunderstood that it was a concubine who went to assassinate Si Tian?"

He looked at her coldly: "I didn't say who she was, how did you know I was talking about Si Tian?"

Her fingers trembled slightly, unable to speak.

He sighed: "Alan, you always make your situation worse."

Tears welled up in her eyes: "My lord, you have wronged my concubine. It should be that Prince Pei retaliated against her wantonly. It has nothing to do with my concubine, really."

He smiled coldly: "So you even know what happened to Pei Shizi in the chess club?"

She closed her mouth in horror, she cried even more, but she didn't dare to say another word, he was too smart, the more she said, the more wrong she was in front of him.

He looked at her, shook his head, and sighed: "Alan, you saved my life when you dropped the bag back then, so I have never pursued the death of Concubine Chen. But, you are too stupid. In the future, the new concubine will come in , you are still a side concubine. Concubine Chen is your cousin anyway, and she will take care of you a little bit, but you can't tolerate her and want to fight with her. I tolerate you once, but I can't tolerate you a second time, because Si Tian It's not Concubine Chen. If I see this again, it won't be as simple as sending you back to Yunxiao Nunnery in Xinzhou."

She hurriedly hugged his leg and cried: "My lord, my lord, my concubine's identity is wrong, and I will never do it again. I beg my lord not to send my concubine to Yunxiao Nunnery."

He stood up and said, "Think about your sins and read the scriptures to Concubine Chen."

He was very tired and his hands were sore.Stepping out of her yard, he was secretly afraid that if he hadn't happened to go to the chess club tonight, he wouldn't dare to think about her. The moment the sword came, he realized that she was more precious than he imagined.

The next day, when it was dark, he quietly came to the chess club again because he was very concerned about her injury.Seeing him, the hidden guards left in the chess club stepped forward and said in a low voice: "My lord, General Shang has just arrived."

He was startled, what is Shang Yulai doing?Did you know she was hurt and came to visit her?
He was standing under the porch, five paces away, and the light was on in her room.He stood there, hesitating whether to go in or not.Is it appropriate for Shang Yu to know that he came to visit her?
Si Tian was sitting on the grand teacher's chair, while Shang Yu bent over and supported the armrest of the chair, and "forced" her inside, "How did you get hurt?" He came to see her tonight and found that she was hurt. Worried and anxious, he asked her, but she couldn't answer anything clearly, who did it, why, he didn't know anything, he was anxious, and almost immediately went to Pei Yunkuang.

She watched his thick black eyebrows knit together, and his eyes sparkled aggressively, so she could only bear the pain and said: "The doctor has seen it, there is no bone injury, it's all right."

He was very distressed, she was so weak, he felt that even being pricked by an embroidery needle seemed like a big deal.He secretly regretted that he shouldn't have put her by Pei Yunkuang's side by chance.He thought that with his current status, Pei Yunkuang would be safer around him, but it doesn't look like that right now.

"Did you stop that man from assassinating the prince?" He asked unintentionally, but it caused a different kind of touch in her heart.It was he who blocked the sword for her.

She shook her head quickly and said in a low voice, "No."

He still didn't believe it, so he raised his voice and said, "Then I'll ask him what's going on."

"Don't ask, the prince will naturally investigate."

He took a deep breath, squatted down, looked her in the eyes, and said seriously and cautiously: "Si Tian, ​​don't follow him anymore, you can go back to Lanzhou Mountain, or go back to Xinzhou to be with mother. You Wait for me, wait for me for a year, and I will take you away." His eyes were sincere and pure, deep and affectionate, entwining her gaze.

Pei Yunkuang was startled suddenly, his footsteps seemed to be heavy, unable to advance or retreat, he just stood there.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Si Tian's voice was too low to be heard, and he was too direct, what he said made people feel hot.She didn't promise him anything, he had thought so far and wanted to take her away, as if she was already his.Angry and amused, she glared at him.

"I'm serious. You are in danger, how can I stand by and watch, no, you can't be a Suzaku anymore. I'll go and tell Master."

She hurriedly said: "I owe the lord a lot of favors, I can't leave now, and I promised Master. You can't keep your promises." Taking people's money for nothing and wasting people's time, she thought she couldn't do it.

He paused every word: "I will pay you back everything you owe."

She was speechless, staring at him, speechless for a while.

He said again: "Si Tian, ​​I will ask Uncle Qi to propose marriage to your mother."

Her face was as red as rouge, and she said anxiously: "No."

He smiled slightly and said: "Don't even think about it and don't want it, they both mean the same thing, just follow me." A trace of ridicule flashed across his handsome face, and he stared at her brightly, as if she was already his own, and she could be her own. Look presumptuously.

She blushed more and more, this man became more and more outspoken.

What he said next was even more surprising: "You can stay with me. I don't worry if Xie Cong is not here."

"not good."

"why not?"

"I'm injured and can't move around." In a hurry, she couldn't give a suitable reason, but she knew that it would definitely not be suitable to live with him.

"It's okay, I'll take you away."

She was in a hurry, and hurriedly said: "Don't mess around."

He smiled and hugged her horizontally. Her shoulder was injured, and her arm could not use any strength to resist. In fact, her resistance was like a mantis.

She was shy and anxious, she knew that there were hidden guards in the corner of the courtyard outside the door, if they saw this, she and him would never be able to tell.

"Shang Yu, Shang Yu." She was in a hurry, and the elder brother stopped calling, and called her name directly.

He was even happier when he heard her call his name, looked at her and said with a smile: "This is the first time you call me by my name, not bad. Don't worry, I will send someone to tell the master and the prince."

He carried her to the door and kicked the door open.

The lights in the corridor were dim, and there was a person standing there. The moonlight was like water, and the person was as light as a picture.
