After rebirth, I married the emperor's uncle and overthrew my ex-husband's kingdom
Chapter 402 Kill him quickly!
"catch him!"
The man shouted loudly, and the assassins disguised as servants in Yichun Courtyard immediately chased in the direction of Jiang Tingxiao.
"stop!"
Before he had run a few steps, he was surrounded from all sides.
"Prince Jiang?"
The madam was slightly stunned when she saw that it was Jiang Tingxiao. He was the one she was least prepared for in Yichunyuan.
"I was bored, so I went upstairs to admire the moonlight for a while. What are you doing, Madam Gu?"
Jiang Tingxiao said this, but his eyes scanned the surroundings.
Four words: You can’t escape even if you have wings!
He pursed his lips tightly, feeling very disappointed.
The madam sneered, "You're admiring the moon on someone else's roof, and you even lift up the tiles to peek?"
"Why do you care where I watch the moon? I am happy, why do you care?"
Jiang Tingxiao's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and his nerves were stretched to the limit. He still insisted on being stubborn even though he had lost the battle.
"Prince Jiang, isn't it good to be a rich and leisurely prince? Why do you have to get involved in these things?"
The masked man in black beside the madam looked at Jiang Tingxiao with a cold look in his eyes. He said word by word, "Those who bring evil upon themselves - shall not live!"
He raised his hand, "Capture him, life or death!"
"grass!"
Jiang Tingxiao cursed, bent down to avoid the big knife coming from the side, and kicked the servant who rushed towards him away.
Thanks to the jackals and tigers in the Weining Earl's Mansion, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Even though those people can no longer threaten him in these years, he has not fallen behind.
But these people are not ordinary servants. They are all agile and their blades are as sharp as lightning when their wrists fly!
Jiang Tingxiao was unarmed and didn't dare to fight back, he could only dodge swiftly, but was forced into a corner.
Seeing those sharp knives coming towards him, he grabbed the water tank used for fire prevention in the corner and smashed it towards them.
A loud "bang" woke up many people immediately.
"What happened?!"
The man in black looked gloomy and shouted, "Kill him now!"
Facing the fierce attack from the assassins, Jiang Tingxiao was unable to cope with the situation and was severely stabbed twice.
The intense pain slowed down his movements. Seeing that his neck was about to be cut off by a knife, he gritted his teeth and simply raised his arms to block in front of him.
"Hey!"
The long sword went along his arm and pierced into his shoulder. A wound deep enough to see the bone immediately appeared, and blood gushed out!
Jiang Tingxiao almost fainted from the pain, and before he could catch his breath, another silver-white sword attacked from the side!
He felt the cold touch on his neck, and at this moment, there was only despair in his eyes.
Just when he was regretting that his mother's dowry would fall into the hands of those jackals, tigers and leopards, suddenly, a short blade came through the air and hit the long sword that was stabbing at his neck.
"call out!!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!"
The sounds of breaking through the air came one after another!
"Pfft!"
"what!!!"
The screams were endless!
The man in black and the madam were both horrified, and they immediately retreated under the eaves.
Jiang Tingxiao's eyes went dark, and he leaned against the wall, covering his wound, his body swaying.
A masked man in black landed beside him. Just when he thought it was someone from Yichunyuan again, the man carried him on his shoulders and jumped over the wall under the cover of a rain of arrows.
After the people left, the rain of arrows stopped.
There were seven or eight corpses lying on the ground, and the air was filled with a disgusting smell of blood.
The face of the man in black was as dark as water under the mask. Seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, the madam asked cautiously, "Master, do you want to send someone to chase him?"
"No need."
Those people knew without any guessing that they were from the Zhenguo Mansion. The man in black waved his hand and said, "He is just a poor young man from a baron's mansion. It won't hurt to let him live a few more days."
There are only a few people in Yichunyuan in public, but there are dozens of death warriors in the underground secret room. As long as the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion dare to break in, they will never return!
"You must not act rashly these days. Keep a close eye on the people in the Zhenguo Mansion. If they dare to come in, they will be killed without mercy!"
"Yes!"
The madam bowed her head and responded respectfully.
The moonlight was brilliant, and the previous movement was like a drop of water falling into the sea, splashing a wave of water before quietly returning to calm.
Jiang Tingxiao was taken to a remote courtyard.
The person who rescued him put him on the bed and treated his wounds skillfully.
Jiang Tingxiao saw the profile of the person who saved him while he was still conscious. He was confused but unable to ask.
After his wound was bandaged, he slowly woke up and thanked him weakly: "Thank you for saving my life."
The other person turned around and turned out to be a young woman. Her eyes were cold and she said, "No need to thank me. I'm just following orders."
Lu Qi collected the medicine box, and Lu Xuan walked in from outside, "Prince Jiang."
"Lu Liu!"
Lu Huaizhen and he were close friends, so Jiang Tingxiao was naturally no stranger to him. He struggled to get up, but was pushed back by Lu Xuan.
"You are seriously injured, just lie down."
Jiang Tingxiao's eyes immediately turned red, and a rare vulnerable expression appeared on his face, "Lu Liu, I almost met my mother today."
Fortunately, he arrived in time.
"I heard the noise and I guessed it was you."
Lu Liu tucked the corner of the quilt for him and said, "You should recover from your injuries here first and don't go out for the time being."
Jiang Tingxiao knew that he was afraid of being retaliated by the prince, and he had no intention of showing up and becoming a target before his injuries healed.
"There is indeed something wrong with Yichunyuan. I heard the man in black tell the madam not to act rashly for the time being. As for the rest..."
He said apologetically, "They were heavily guarded, and I was discovered before I could find out anything in time."
"It's okay. They will show their true colors sooner or later."
After tossing and turning for half the night, it was already dawn.
Bai Youyou slept until she woke up naturally. Xiaoju came in with hot water, and Lu Qi followed her in quickly.
"Young lady, this is bad. Prince Xian has been summoned to the palace by the Emperor!"
Bai Youyou paused while putting on his coat and turned to look at her, "When did it happen?"
"Just half an hour ago."
Bai Youyou frowned, "Do you know why the emperor summoned him into the palace?"
Lu Qi shook his head, "I don't know yet."
Bai Youyou looked solemn.
Given the prince's petty nature, if Lu Huaizhen had helped him last time, the prince would definitely not let him go.
There has been no movement for half a month, and now I'm afraid I have a big lump of stuff in my stomach.
"Prepare the car. I'm going to look for the Third Prince."
Lu Qi hurriedly stopped her, "Miss, it's too risky for you to enter the palace now. If you offend the emperor, it will be more trouble than gain."
Bai Youyou said with a determined look, "No matter what, Prince Xian has helped the Zhenguo Mansion a lot, I must go and take a look."
She simply washed up and prepared to leave in a hurry without even eating. The old lady came after hearing the news and just told her to be careful.
Inside the imperial study, Prince Xian was kneeling in the main hall, his head lowered and his expression unrecognizable.
The emperor sat on the chair and threw the memorial to Prince Xian in anger, "I didn't know that you, Old Seventeen, had such thoughts!"
The edge of the memorial scratched a red mark on Prince Xian's fair cheek, but he remained calm and said, "Your Majesty, I have a terminal illness and my days are numbered. I have absolutely no intention of rebelling."
"If you have no intention of rebellion, then where did the dragon robe in your room come from?!"
