Quick Wear: The Stunning Beauty is Forbidden to Be Pampered
Chapter 191 World 3: The Emperor Who Has No Heir Seizes His Minister’s Wife (70)
"elder brother--"
Xiao Beizhan let out a heart-wrenching roar. He saw a man in black chopping at Xiao Junlin with a knife.
Xiao Junlin was in a mess, his jade crown was broken in two, his hair was scattered and looked very messy, and his whole body was covered with peach petals.
He had lost all his image, his robe was torn, and his face was dirty. He must have rolled on the ground while fleeing in a hurry to avoid being chased.
Seeing that the knife was about to fall, Xiao Junlin was so tired that he could not move at all. He closed his eyes in despair, with panic written all over his little face.
Xiao Beizhan was also instantly panicked. He struggled to save his brother, not caring at all that his little body was still hanging in the air, and was about to fall to the ground.
At the critical moment, Xie Changling held Xiao Beizhan tightly with one hand, and picked up a palm-sized stone with the other hand and threw it at the assassin's knife.
The knife was quickly deflected, and Xie Changling took the opportunity to kick the assassin away, pulled Xiao Junlin up, and fled with the two children in his arms.
Because there were so many peach trees, they turned left and right and came to a rockery. Seeing that the assassin did not catch up, Xie Changling temporarily felt relieved.
Xiao Junlin hugged Xie Changling's neck tightly, his whole body trembling as if he was frightened.
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, be good."
Xie Changling comforted him softly, and Xiao Beizhan followed suit, patting Xiao Junlin on the back like Xie Changling did, and said in childish words: "Brother, don't be afraid."
After some comforting, Xiao Junlin gradually stopped trembling and burst into tears.
"Wow wow wow wow wow..., there is so much blood, it's all blood, Xiaoyinzi, Xiaoyuanzi and the others are all dead, there is so much blood!"
Originally, Xie Changling thought that Xiao Junlin was frightened, but after listening to his words, he felt that the matter was not simple. If someone was assassinating someone in the palace, would they kill the eunuchs first?
What assassin would be so stupid as to reveal his whereabouts before killing the person he wanted to kill? Wouldn't that be the first step to alert the enemy?
Unless, this person didn't come to assassinate, but broke into the palace to encircle and suppress!
Xie Changling suddenly became uneasy. They were already in the harem, so how did those people break through the defenses of the imperial palace and kill their way into the palace?
"Don't cry, come with me, it may be dangerous here, I will take you to find the emperor and queen, don't make any noise."
Xie Changling made a prompt decision and picked up one of them in each hand. According to his memory, if he wanted to return to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, there should be no place in the entire palace that was safer than the emperor, right?
"Don't cry, brother. There are bad guys. Let's go find our father, the emperor and our mother."
Xiao Beizhan also tried to comfort Xiao Junlin and stamped his feet excitedly. They wanted to tell their father that they had met a bad guy.
"Well, I won't cry. Let's go."
Xiao Junlin also wisely shut his mouth, but his little body was still twitching.
Xie Changling didn't want to think about it any more. There was no time to waste any more. Instead, he picked up the two children and ran all the way. Fortunately, he had trained in the military camp for several years and could run very fast.
After a while, they came out of the peach forest. As a result, they could see with the naked eye the bodies of many eunuchs and palace maids lying all over the place, and blood was everywhere.
Xie Changling's heart sank, and considering the child in his arms, he said, "Don't look, close your eyes."
The two little bodies covered each other's eyes tacitly and were extremely obedient.
Xiao Junlin knew what it was. Xiao Beizhan was curious and wanted to take a peek himself, but Xiao Junlin covered his eyes, so he could not see anything.
Helplessly, he had to calm down again, feeling Xie Changling's quickened pace. When they opened their eyes again, they found that Xiao Jin's situation was not much better.
……
Hall of Supreme Harmony.
The bodies of many soldiers were already strewn all over the ground, and the bodies of the assassins also formed a thick layer. It was obvious that the assassins had spent a lot of money on this assassination.
The assassination is now coming to an end, and it is also the most critical moment. Xiao Jin is surrounded by several people, some want to kill him and some want to protect him.
However, the number of people protecting him was decreasing. Even though the last person was about to be hacked to death, Xie Changling stood there in a daze, not knowing whether he should save him or not!
"Father!"
"Father, be careful!"
Xie Changling wanted to play dumb and not help, but the two little guys in his arms couldn't stand it. They shouted fearlessly, attracting the attention of the assassins!
Now, Xie Changling had no choice but to fight back. He asked the two little guys to follow him closely, and with a kick, a knife flew away.
"Follow me closely and don't run around."
Xie Changling raised the knife like a god, extremely brave. He killed one at a time, and killed a pair at a time. Finally, he cleared out all the assassins.
The man who was protecting Xiao Jin was also a skilled martial artist. He fought desperately and finally collapsed after Xie Changling eliminated the assassin.
Xiao Jin looked at the empty hall with a serious look in his eyes. Xie Changling walked towards him step by step with a knife in hand, and the children behind him also followed Xie Changling closely.
Finally, Xie Changling stopped, but he did not let go of the knife. Blood dripped down the knife, which made people terrified.
Xie Changling was different at this moment. There was a hint of murderous intent in his eyes. He knew that the chance to kill Xiao Jin was today!
As long as he kills Xiao Jin, he can be with Song Lingxi forever. As long as he kills him now——
The two men stood facing each other, as if an invisible wind was passing between them, causing waves.
The two strong auras made the two children sense the danger.
He originally wanted to rush over and hug Xiao Jin like a cannonball, but at this moment he stopped and didn't dare to move forward.
Xiao Jin watched as Xie Changling finally stopped hiding his weakness and showed his sharp edge, like a sword drawn from its sheath. The bloodstains on his face made him feel even more oppressive.
Of course he knew what Xie Changling was thinking. He had treated Xie Changling the same way before. If Song Lingxi hadn't arrived in time -
Yes, Xier, I wonder if Xier is still alive?
"Did you see Xier on the way here?"
Xiao Jin's voice was hoarse. He had just been surrounded. Layer upon layer of black assassins surged up, and the soldiers were in a state of decline and were outnumbered.
When he saw that things were going badly, he quickly asked General Li and several others to escort Song Lingxi back to Fengyi Palace.
They had just left not long ago, so Xie Changling should have seen them, so he asked, hoping nothing unexpected would happen!
"Xi'er, no, I didn't see the Queen."
Speaking of Song Lingxi, Xie Changling regained some of his rationality. He put away his knife and his murderous look.
"But something happened to the Queen. I didn't see her all the way here."
"Yes, Father, but not Mother."
"Father, did you hide our mother?"
But the atmosphere between them was restored and no longer so tense. Xiao Junlin and Xiao Beizhan ran towards Xiao Jin happily, each holding one of his legs.
"I sent General Li Simu with dozens of men to escort Xi'er. Didn't you see it?"
Seeing him shaking his head, Xiao Jin didn't have time to explain. She hugged the two children and walked out. Halfway through, she turned back and handed the children to him.
"Watch it for me. Go to the side hall and wait. It's bloody outside. Don't let them go out."
After Xiao Jin put them down, he rushed out of the Hall of Supreme Harmony alone.
……
He rushed into the pile of corpses. Yes, he wanted to turn over the bodies. He vaguely sensed that Song Lingxi had met with an accident.
Xiao Jin didn't dare to think about it anymore and could only hope that it was all just his imagination and Xier was fine.
But when he turned over the body of General Li Simu, he finally couldn't bear it anymore. His nose felt sore and he almost couldn't hold it and fell down.
Xiao Jin continued to search, his entire body covered in blood, looking at familiar faces, Li Peicong, Liu Hong, Liu Lu...
Suddenly, a corpse wearing a bright yellow phoenix robe was turned over. Her face was scratched and half of her scalp was peeled off, making it impossible to see her appearance clearly.
Xiao Jin's hands were shaking. He gently placed his fingertips on the tip of her nose. She wasn't breathing. How could she not be breathing?
"Xi'er——"
Xiao Jin didn't believe it. He collapsed. He had never felt so heartbroken before. He had clearly sent most of his men to escort Xi'er. How could it be possible that she died in vain?
And in a place where Xiao Jin didn't notice, a sword with a blue-purple glow was stabbing towards him, and it was about to pierce his shoulder -
With a "ding-dang" sound, Xie Changling threw a flying knife, which deflected the poisonous sword. He flew forward and killed the man.
However, Xiao Jin was no longer able to care about these things. He didn't care at all. He didn't care whether he would die or not. He didn't care about anything!
Xier is gone, what's the point of him still being alive?
Xiao Jin was so heartbroken that he couldn't breathe, as if every breath he took was piercing his heart, making it feel like it was riddled with holes and pierced by thousands of swords.
……
After Xie Changling dealt with the fish that slipped through the net, he returned to Xiao Jin. He looked fine at first glance, but then he saw that his body was shaking!
"This is——Xi'er?"
Xie Changling knelt beside the corpse, looking at the bright yellow phoenix patterned robe he had just seen today, as well as the scratched face, his eyes full of disbelief!
He held the man's hand, which was still warm, meaning he had just left not long ago. If only he had been a step earlier, a step earlier.
Xie Changling's heart seemed to be torn into pieces. It was painful, an uncontrollable pain. At that moment, his tears flowed down.
He no longer cared about hierarchy, but Xiao Jin was still there, holding Song Lingxi's hand, interlocking their fingers. This was what he wanted to do most.
When Xie Changling was at the border, what he missed most was that time. He felt the distinct joints of Song Lingxi's hands. No, no!
"Xi'er's hands are clearly soft. No, that's not right. She is not Xi'er!"
Xie Changling's words reminded Xiao Jin.
Xiao Jin recovered from the aftermath of his sadness. He had not dared to touch Song Lingxi, blaming himself for harming her. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't have been an assassination today!
However, after hearing what Xie Changling said, Xiao Jin immediately shifted his gaze to Song Lingxi.
Looking closely, the skin was not as fair and delicate as Xier's, but rather very rough. He pulled open the corpse's clothes and did not find any marks.
Suddenly he laughed, his face full of relief: "Yes, this is not Xier, without that red mark, it's not Xier!"
"Xi'er is still alive, Xie Changling, I order you to find Xi'er..."
Xiao Jin was crying and laughing. Xiao Jin, who had always been aloof and a cold-faced devil in front of the ministers, was now like a child, revealing his emotions.
"Xi'er, someone must have stolen the dragon and replaced it with a phoenix!"
