business lady

Chapter 66
At night, the Duanwang Mansion, which was bustling during the day, was completely silent at this time. A first-quarter moon hung high in the sky, and the shadows of trees danced on the ground in the cold and dim light. A person wrapped in black took advantage of the night to hide in the darkness, quietly He sneaked into Duan Wang's mansion, and at this time had escaped the soldiers who were watching the night in the mansion, and arrived outside Duan Yuxuan.

At this moment, another group of soldiers passed by, and he immediately hid in the shadows. After the group left, he glanced contemptuously at their backs, and even these people wanted to stop him. It's messed up, although the guards have been strengthened, there is no way!
Then continue to approach Duan Yuxuan, and take advantage of no one to fly up to the roof of Duan Yuxuan, carefully look around, make sure no one has noticed, gently remove a piece of green tile with your hand, bend your body and close your eyes for a closer look The movement in the house!

I saw unfinished medicine left on the table in the room, and a man dressed as a housekeeper was sitting in front of the bed. It should be Zhang Xiu, the housekeeper of the palace, who was watching the night. There was only one person lying on the bed, because of his limbs, he couldn't see his face. , but from the side, it looks exactly the same as the portrait I saw before I came here, it seems that this is undoubtedly Duan Wang!
He narrowed his eyes slightly to hide the light in his eyes, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. It seems that his task this time will be completed soon!He carefully took out a bamboo tube from his arms, leaned over and pointed the mouth of the tube at the room and blew, a faint smoke drifted in the room, he waited patiently on the roof for a while, and saw the people in the room gradually approaching. However, due to the nature of the medicine, I fell asleep!
Seeing such a situation, he smiled with satisfaction, carefully looked around again, and after making sure that there was no one there, he flew down the room carefully, sneaked to the door, quickly entered the room, and walked quickly into the inner room When he got to the bed, looking at the two people who were already asleep, he pulled out the sword on his body with a fierce look, and stabbed the person on the bed!
At the very moment, the person on the bed suddenly opened his eyes and used his backhand to shield them. There was a 'clang', the unique sound of a weapon colliding, which was especially harsh in this silent night.

He was so shocked that he took a few steps back, and when he took a closer look, he saw a man who was somewhat similar to King Duan holding a sharp sword at him, and the steward at the side was also standing unharmed, holding a dagger at him. Himself, they weren't drugged at all, they were all pretending just now, his eyes flashed, how could he not find out that this was a trap, and immediately escaped, and just moved two steps back!Seeing a few people holding weapons appeared behind him, blocking the way!
Seeing that the assassin was already surrounded by several people from his side, Ying Er cast a look at them alive, and after seeing their affirmative eyes, he flew over to fight the assassin!
Ying Qi saw that he gave her a look, with a puzzled expression on her face, what does this mean? !do not care!Call first!Seeing Ying Er making a move, he hurried up with his sword!
He is here because after Guo Chao resigned, Xia Zhi asked him not to continue to follow him. He just had nothing to do at this time, Ying Yi thought, although he was a little out of tune, his martial arts were still good, anyway, he was idle It's a waste, it's better to call them over and it will be an extra help!
Xia Jian had notified them since the assassin stepped into Duan Wang's mansion, and the reason why he endured until here was to be safe!
He was fighting with Ying Er alone, but now Ying Qi came up again and he was even more flustered. He wanted to escape, but although the people around him didn't come up together, they blocked his way. Let him have no way out!

For a moment, the shadow of the sword slanted horizontally, and he narrowly escaped the sword light several times. There were no serious injuries on his body, but the number of small cuts kept increasing. Sorry!

"Didn't you want you not to hurt his life?" Ying Er stopped the sword in his hand, stepped forward and blamed him, if he didn't want to catch him alive, why would he have waited so tied up until now, he would have already dealt with it with a sword up!
"Ah?! When did you tell me?" Ying Qi asked suspiciously with his eyes wide open. He really didn't hear him say that!
"Didn't I wink at you before?" Ying Er asked.

"It turns out that they want me to keep alive!" Ying Qi suddenly realized, he really didn't realize it just now!

"Stop talking, he's not dead yet!" Zhang Xiu said after checking the assassin's injuries, "This sword didn't penetrate the vitals, and he died before it was so easy!"

Everyone heaved a sigh of relief when they heard him say this, and their work was not in vain. Before they could say a few words, they saw Ying Qi squatting down and tossing and turning on the assassin's body!

Seeing him like this, Xia Gai said: "Don't search anymore, there won't be any clues on him, let's interrogate him after he wakes up!" Just ask and it's over. If he refuses to speak up, he has plenty of ways to make him speak!

"I didn't look for any more clues, I was just looking to see if there was any poison hidden on him!" As he said, he pinched the assassin's mouth fiercely with his hand, and his jaw immediately dislocated, and he used his hand to pick in his mouth , and then took out a soft pouch, presumably this is the poison he hid in the gap between his teeth!

He handed the found poison to Ying Yi, Ying Yi stretched out his hand to take the poison bag, looked at it in front of his eyes, and said affirmatively: "It's well done!" I didn't expect this guy to be careful sometimes!
Yingqi scratched her head in embarrassment, and smirked!It was also the last time he heard that the assassin who assassinated the princess was poisoned to death. He was careful when he heard it, but he didn't expect to use it today!
"Okay! Don't talk about it, take him down first and treat the wound briefly, and talk about it when someone wakes up!" If the wound is not treated, the blood will bleed out after a long time, and the person will die!
Ying Er immediately asked someone to come in and carry him down!After restoring the things in the house to their original state, Zhang Xiu immediately went to Duanfangzhai to report the situation here to Jiuyuan!

At this time, Jiu Yuan had just fed Xia Zhi medicine, and was using a soft handkerchief to wipe the overflowing soup from the corners of Xia Zhi's mouth. Doctor Qiu had come to see him before, and said that Xia Zhi's injury had finally improved, and he might wake up at any time!Thinking of this, Jiuyuan finally had some joy in his heart!

At this time, I heard Cha Wei say that Zhang Xiu was waiting for her in the study, and let Tan Se and the others take care of her like Xia Zhi, so she went to the study, Zhang Xiu came to Duanfangzhai so late, there must be something important!
Zhang Xiu waited for a cup of tea in the study, when she saw Jiu Yuan approaching, she immediately saluted her!

After Jiuyuan asked him to excuse him, he asked him why he came here at this time!
Zhang Xiu immediately told her what happened in Duan Yuxuan: "The princess has a clever plan, and indeed an assassin sneaked into the mansion tonight to assassinate the prince, and he has been captured alive!"

Jiuyuan's eyes flickered when he heard this, and immediately asked: "Did you find out anything?"

"Not yet, because he resisted so badly that he was stabbed with a sword and has not yet woken up. I will ask him when he wakes up!" Zhang Xiu replied. Originally, he wanted to wait until he found out the clues before reporting, but the princess said Come over and tell her as soon as something happens, that's why he will disturb Wang Hao's rest at such a late hour!
After hearing this, Jiu Yuan nodded, expressing his understanding, and told him: "When you find out who is behind him, come and tell me immediately!" She wanted to see whether it was Zhongyonghou who instructed him this time, or if there was someone else hiding behind him. !

"Yes!" Zhang Xiu said, hesitated for a while and then said: "I don't know how the prince is doing now?!"

Speaking of Xia Zhi, the expression on Jiu Yuan's face also relaxed a little, and he replied: "The imperial doctor has seen it, and said that it has improved, and it is possible to wake up at any time!"

Zhang Xiu said pleasantly: "That's really great!"

Looking at his surprised face, Jiuyuan also showed a faint smile, as long as Xia Zhi can wake up, their twists and turns will be interesting!
