She turned into a noble lady in the book, she wanted to lie down

Chapter 88 88. Assassination
After the third watch, the entire nunnery was silent.

In Liu Xinning's yard, a few figures quietly came in.

One of the black shadows carefully pried open the door of the main room with a dagger, and touched the bed.

The bed curtains were drawn down, and there was silence.

The black shadow opened the curtain of the bed a little casually, and stabbed at the bulge on the bed with a dagger.

As he moved, he secretly thought that this transaction was too easy.

It's just a female relative, so the employer told me to be careful.

What are you careful about?

As long as you avoid the guards defending outside the nunnery, wouldn't it be easy to get in?

The guards of these big families are nothing more than top experts like them.

The man was thinking, but found that the dagger was stabbed in the air?

He looked intently, and saw that the ball was just brocade quilts and pillows, and there was no one inside? ? ?

When the man saw it, he felt bad in his heart, and then left the room in a flash.As a result, as soon as he arrived in the yard, a guard rushed over.

All of a sudden, there were sounds of fighting.

Liu Xinning stood in the shadow behind the side door, watching the fighting scene with cold eyes.

She doesn't know martial arts, but she can tell that these people should be good at martial arts.

After all, the guards gradually paled in comparison.

However, there was a vigorous figure in the courtyard, fighting like a swimming dragon, saving the decadent situation.

Liu Xinning was not particularly worried.

Sooner or later, the movement in this yard will alarm other people, and Wu Ni from Jiusheng Temple will rush over soon.

What's more, the Nine Saints' Nunnery is not the only place where people from the Liu Mansion stay overnight.There are also guards in the other house.

Sure enough, the sound of fighting in the yard attracted the attention of others, and it seemed that people were coming here one after another.

"what……"

Suddenly a rapid exclamation sounded.

Liu Xinning looked over sternly, only to see that the second-class maid Xingrui screamed in fright because she saw the scene of a person's head falling to the ground.

"Shut up." Liu Xinning scolded in a low voice.

However, it was too late, and someone followed the sound to watch.

"The man is in the east ear room." Suddenly someone shouted loudly, even in the middle of the fight, it was very obvious.

These words immediately attracted all the thieves to run here.And the guards headed by Xiao Muze desperately resisted.

However, it was too late.Someone broke through the guards and rushed to the door of the ear room.

With a cold face, Liu Xinning retreated surrounded by the maids.

However, she held the dagger tightly in one hand and the medicine bag in the other, ready at all times.

When the eldest maid or Chunnuan is on vigil, two maids should be kept outside to wait for them at any time.This is the usual practice in Shu Yi Yuan.

Now, coming to the Buddhist monastery, it was Chunnuan's night watch, and Danyan took Xingrui to sleep in the east ear room and waited for orders.

However, in the middle of the night, Liu Xinning took Chun Nuan quietly from the main room to the east ear room.

Their movements were so light that Danyan and Xingrui woke up only when there was movement in the yard.

When they saw Liu Xinning, they thought they were frightened by the movement outside.

The four of them were hiding well.However, who would have thought that Xingrui would reveal her whereabouts at this time.

Chunnuan and Danyan looked at Xingrui who was slumped on the ground bitterly, but they had no time to settle accounts with her at this time.

The killer kicked open the door and rushed in.

Xingrui, who was sitting paralyzed by the door, yelled again in fright, and was slashed by the killer with a knife, and fell silent.

Seeing this, the hearts of the remaining three people tightened.

Chunnuan and Danyan glanced at each other, then pushed Liu Xinning back, and rushed up to stop her as if she was dead.

"do not go."

The incident happened suddenly, Liu Xinning didn't stop crying, and saw Dan Yan and Chun Nuan being kicked away by the killer one by one.

The light smoke hit the wall directly and passed out.

Chun Nuan crawled back desperately to hug the killer's leg, looked at Liu Xinning and shouted: "Run, run..."

Liu Xinning ran towards Chun Nuan.

The advantage of the sleeve arrow is that it can be shot in succession without being discovered.But the disadvantage is that the range is too short, and it has no effect if it is farther away.

Seeing this scene outside the door, Xiao Muze was so frightened that he couldn't help exclaiming: "Run back."

After shouting, he ignored the knife that fell on his back, and after being hurt for a while, he still rushed towards the ear room quickly.

However, it seems too late...

The killer looked at Liu Xinning who was running over, kicked Chunnuan away, and chopped at Liu Xinning with a knife.

And Liu Xinning seemed terrified when she saw Chun Nuan who was kicked far away and spitting blood.

She no longer ran, but directly limp on the ground.

She even shielded her face with a wide sleeve, as if the killer couldn't see her like this.

Chunnuan, who was kicked until he vomited blood, was heartbroken, and Xiao Muze, who was injured and rushed to the door, had his eyes tearing open.

Right in the blink of an eye, the two saw the black figure fall to the ground.

"You..." The black figure didn't seem to believe that the vigorous figure just now was the weak woman from before.

The raised powder made him close his eyes subconsciously, but when he opened them again, he saw that he had already been hit by many sleeve arrows.

He was about to raise his hand to fight desperately, but saw a sharp dagger pierced into his chest.

Xiao Muze, who arrived afterward, looked at the scene in front of him in a daze.

However, Liu Xinning quickly put away the dagger and sleeve arrow.

Then, she grabbed Xiao Muze's hand and stabbed his long sword into the wound on the man in black's chest.

She even turned her lower body over for the man, allowing the long sword to pass through her chest, completely covering up the traces of the dagger.

After doing all this, Liu Xinning was not idle.

She first looked at the light smoke that had fallen, and pushed her for a while without moving.He ran to the fainted Xingrui again, and pushed hard a few times, but he didn't move.

Only then did Liu Xinning run behind Xiao Muze in peace of mind, and shouted loudly in a crying voice.

"Thank you for saving me, otherwise I would have died..."

There was lingering fear in Liu Xinning's cries.

What everyone saw in a blink of an eye was that Xiao Huwei's skills were vigorous and he succeeded in rescuing him in time.

Xiao Muze finally regained his composure.He looked at Liu Xinning's actions, thoughtful.

"I'll explain it to you later."

Liu Xinning followed Xiao Muze's gaze, said something in a low voice, and ran to help the injured Chunnuan.

After Xiao Muze took a deep look at Liu Xinning, he went out and closed the door, guarded the door, and fought with those people.

After a while, the guards from the other family and Wu Ni from Jiusheng Temple arrived in time to join the fight.

The fight was over quickly.

The dead ones were piled aside, while the injured ones were directly taken care of by Liu Xinning.

"Princess, what should I do next?" Xiao Muze saw that everyone was almost cleaned up, and then walked to Liu Xinning's side and asked.

"The next step," Liu Xinning's eyebrows became sharper, and her chest straightened even more, "The next step, of course, is to report to the officials. It is a felony to assassinate the royal family. Now that there are so many lives, they should be handed over to Dali. temple to deal with."

"Princess...it's confirmed." Xiao Muze took a deep look at Liu Xinning and asked.

"I'm very sure. Let's go." Liu Xinning replied with a smile as if she had relieved a heavy burden.

"Yes."

Xiao Muze didn't say anything anymore, but ordered two guards who were less injured to take tokens and rode towards the capital.
