Tsundere Prince Concubine: The prince kneels down and sings to conquer

Chapter 856 Encountered Assassination
"Really?" Tian Lan was dubious.

Just as Yun Lixiao was about to reply, Taohua, who had just woken up from a nap, yawned and asked, "Miss, what is an orangutan? Is it a star in the sky?"

"It's a kind of animal with a huge body," Liuli said, but she smiled when she said this, "Just like you."

But isn't that what it is.Taohua, who is only ten years old, grows solidly, not like a young orangutan.When Taohua heard this, she smiled instead of anger: "Sister Liuli, are you praising me for being strong?"

Everyone looked at each other and laughed together.Taohua didn't know what they were laughing at, but when she saw them laughing, she also scratched her head and laughed foolishly.Tianyu who was outside the carriage heard the laughter, and when she turned around, she had mixed feelings in her heart.

At night, everyone found a small inn to live in. The wilderness needed extra attention. Yun Lixiao asked for two rooms, one for Taohua and Tianlan, and one for her and Liuli Tianyu.Tianyu Tianlan was trained and slept less.Although the two often quarreled, they were unambiguous in matters of business. They agreed that Tianyu would guard the room in the first half of the night, and Tianlan would take over in the second half of the night.

It was night, and Zhan Tianjue who was sleeping was awakened by an exclamation. Zhan Tianjue got up, took the saber beside him and pushed open the door.There was thick smoke outside the door, and Tuanzi and Guozi rushed to Zhan Tianjue's side and said, "Master, the inn is on fire, let's go out quickly."

Zhan Tianjue nodded, several people covered their mouths and rushed out of the inn filled with smoke.After they left the inn, they saw that the inn had been melted into flames.Zhan Tianjue looked at the crowd, all the Jinrui soldiers he brought were safe and sound, Zhan Tianjue was relieved.On the way to Jiangnan in the past few days, he encountered many assassinations. He thought that this trip to Jiangnan was just to deal with corrupt officials in the underworld. Now, it seems that there are forces secretly blocking him.

Fortunately, he took precautions and moved the food for the chariots and horses to a safe place, and now he is free from suffering.Zhan Tianjue thought so, and heard an exclamation: "Master, be careful!" A cold knife came towards Zhan Tianjue's crimson figure, Zhan Tianjue drew his sword to accept the plot, he looked up, wanting to The man who took his life wore a bronze ghost mask.

Those who assassinated him in the past few days were all wearing this mask, Zhan Tianjue felt strange in his heart, Guozi pierced this person with a sword from behind when he saw it.The man fell to the ground in response, before Guo Zi could react, he saw a group of people behind him rushing towards them, clashing swords.Zhan Tianjue was so angry that he scolded his mother in his heart, and swung his long sword to resist the turbulent approach of the masked man.

Fortunately, Zhan Tianjue has extraordinary martial arts skills, not to mention Guozi and Tuanzi are beside him.After a few rounds, the group of masked men were defeated and fled away.

"Damn it! If I find out who is instigating behind the scenes, I will take his skin and tendons and drink!" Zhan Tianjue said indignantly, squatting down and removing the body from a corpse. The copper ghost mask was put into the sleeve pocket.

"Master, there's something strange about this matter. We're in the open, and those assassins are in the dark. We can only sit and wait for death." Tuanzi said.

"I don't know which demon exposed my master's whereabouts. Now I am waiting to be slaughtered like a lamb." The teeth of the lamb's son rattled, and he wished to wring the neck of the person who secretly instructed him.Zhan Tianjue's life is on the line, if he wants his head, wait for eight lifetimes.
