The lights on the river bank were brightly lit, and the burning flames of the Eastern Palace dyed the dark sky red.Wei Jiao hugged Gu Jinyin behind a clump of lotuses planted in the pool, watched Bingjia quickly go to the other side of the hall, and frowned.

Gu Jin grabbed Wei Jiao's hand fiercely, "Mother..." Wei Jiao covered Gu Jin's mouth, looked at the soldiers not far away, and signaled him to keep quiet.

Gu Jin looked at the red sky with a white face, her body trembling slightly.The creaking sound from the burning building mixed with the sound of shouting and killing rushed over along with the wind, Gu Jin struggled to swim to the shore but was restrained by Wei Jiao, who could only twist his body in vain.

Wei Jiao looked at the other side of the hall, Chunyuke probably already started fighting with Duan Xu.Chunyuke never did anything he was not sure of, so if he dared to do something at this time, he must have a plan for the future, and they can only add to the chaos by running over now.Wei Jiao lowered his eyes, raised his hand and knocked Gu Jin unconscious.

Embracing Gu Jin's limp body, Wei Jiao quietly swam in the lotus pond.When Duan Xu finds out that he is not with Chunyuke, he will definitely conduct a comprehensive search, and he must find a hiding place as soon as possible.

Gu Jin's face was very pale, maybe it was night, when the temperature dropped, Wei Jiao rubbed Gu Jin's face, it was cold.Tilting his head to peck Gu Jin's lips, Wei Jiao seemed to have gained some strength and continued to swim forward.

I don't know how long they soaked in the water, until all the light was swallowed up by the night, and the shouts of killing gradually faded away, Wei Jiao dared to climb up from the water holding Gu Jin.

I don't know that in the abandoned palace, it was dark all around, and there was not even a lamp.Wei Jiao picked up Gu Jin, who was still unconscious, and walked towards the palace through the night.He needs to judge where he is, otherwise there is no way to get out.

A lot of dead leaves had accumulated in the courtyard, and they made a rustling sound when they were stepped on. Wei Jiao touched the door with the faint starlight, looked at the dusty rusty lock on it, and stretched out his hand to crush it.

It should have been in disrepair for a long time, the door creaked, and a piece of wood from Wei Jiao fell off.The moment he stepped into the room, Wei Jiao frowned, and a broken body came from his side, attacking his back, Wei Jiao reached out and hugged Gu Jin who was behind him in his arms, and rolled on the spot, wiping the wooden stick against his back. Wei Jiao swept his head over.

The man missed a hit, turned around and ran away, Wei Jiao would let him escape, and knocked the man down with a sweep of his legs.There was only a "snap", and the man fell to the ground like a dog chewing mud, whimpered and ran to the corner to squat with the stick in his arms.Waiting for his eyes to adapt to the darkness in the room, Wei Jiao looked at the small group not far away and raised his eyebrows. The person who attacked him turned out to be a child who looked only four or five years old. No wonder the stick was aimed at his back. knock.The room was so dark that the face could not be seen clearly, it must be a young eunuch from some family.

Wei Jiao scanned the room, looked at the opened window, then looked at the trembling child holding a stick, raised his eyebrows, guessing that the child came in through the window.

The room was clean, without a trace of dust, and there was still a half-eaten steamed bun on the table.A quilt was spread on a low couch not far away.Wei Jiao put Gu Jin on the bed, and began to take off Gu Jin's wet clothes.

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught sight of the child who was quietly moving outside the door. Wei Jiao sneered, pulled out the saber at his waist and threw it directly. on the ground.

Wei Jiao wrapped Gu Jin in the quilt, turned around to look at the shivering child, raised his eyebrows, "You, come here."

----------

The long knife in his hand curled its blade, and Chun Yuke wrapped one hand around Wen Yiru's waist to separate her from the blade stabbed by the forbidden army. A section of her long hair was cut off, Chun Yuke raised her hand to block the horizontal sword, and the blade shattered. sound.

Raising her hand, she pushed Wen Yiru into the rockery on one side, Chunyuke took the weapon thrown by the hidden guard, and with a flick of her wrist, another person's life was reaped.

Seeing Chunyuke's flowing movements, Duan Xu frowned, why did Chunyuke's moves look familiar, as if he had seen them before?He did not expect that this seemingly frail scholar would be so difficult to deal with.

When blocking them at the exit of the secret passage, Duan Xu was happy to see Chun Yuke who had thrown himself into the trap. He thought that the other party would compromise first when he saw the situation was wrong, but unexpectedly, Chun Yuke raised his knife and started killing people.Shengsheng opened a way.

The most irritating thing is... there is no Wei Jiao!

Thinking of the missing Huaiyang King, Duan Xu looked at Chun Yuke with killing intent in his eyes.The army that went to Huaiyang to take Qin Suyi was detained by her, but none of the 1000 people came back, and there was no news like that.Now that Wei Jiao is not in his hands, Duan Xu only feels a headache when he thinks about the 30 Qin family army in Qin Suyi's hands who only recognize people.

The king of Huaiyang is afraid that he will rebel soon.

Now Wen Yiru is not important anymore, life is a bargaining chip to threaten Gu Jin, death...is not very important either.It was Chunyuke who had to be arrested and interrogated.

Feeling Duan Xu's malicious gaze, Chun Yuke raised her eyes, with a long knife in her hand like a wandering dragon, and cut off the sneak attacking person behind her with one knife, watching Duan Xu's lips move slightly, "Little bastard."

Looking at Chunyuke's lips, Duan Xu: "..."

"Catch the assassin alive, just keep your breath, and kill the rest!" Duan Xu sneered as he saw Chunyuke protecting Wen Yiru.

The surrounding guards were more or less injured, Chunyuke's face was stained with blood, and his gaze was as cold as a Rakshasa.Duan Xu frowned as she watched the opponent's murderous movements becoming more and more skillful.He remembered why it looked so familiar, it was exactly the same as the knife technique Gu Lai taught them!

Could this be... Gu Lai!

Duan Xu's hands trembled, and when he took a closer look, he breathed a sigh of relief, no, Gu Lai's strikes would definitely be more ruthless, Chunyuke's strikes were sharp and precise, but they didn't have Gu Lai's domineering aura, on the contrary, they were a little more fluent and unrestrained meaning.

I don't know why Chunyuke and Gu Kai use the same saber technique.Gu Wei was in the capital, while Chunyuke was in Sichuan, and there was no communication in Guozijian.The two of them are clearly at odds, how could it be... Duan Xu's brows were tightly knit together.

At this moment, a sharp arrow pierced through the air.The guard beside him drew his sword to block the arrow, Duan Xu looked at where the arrow came from, and frowned.

Duan Ye withdrew his hand pulling the string, and smiled helplessly at Duan Xu, "I'm sorry, Brother Huang."

Behind him, countless archers lined up, their arrows already on the bowstring, ready to go.The forbidden army in black rushed over and stopped all the guards who were besieging Chunyuke. Duan Xu narrowed his eyes, "Third brother, what do you mean?"

Duan Ye threw the bow and arrow in his hand to the attendants behind him, and jumped down from the eaves, "The emperor's east palace is on fire, and the third younger brother is here to help." Duan Ye looked at Duan Xu's unfriendly eyes, and chuckled, unable to hide it. He took pleasure in other people's misfortune, "Brother Emperor, Father Emperor summoned me."

Duan Xu's face turned black instantly, his good father is really troublesome.Looking at Chunyuke behind Duan Ye, Duan Xu said coldly, "Third Brother, please trouble me, it's just the assassin behind you..."

Duan Ye smiled brightly, "Brother Huang, it's more important to summon the emperor, I will take care of the assassin."

Duan Xu looked at Chun Yuke, who was casually taking out a handkerchief, wiping the blood on his face, and there was even a little smile on his lips.

Duan Xu let out a cold snort, and walked away in a flick of his sleeves, but the moment he turned around, he winked at the subordinate behind him, who nodded knowingly.

"Shua——" It was already too late when Chunyuke noticed the sound of piercing the air from behind. Just as she turned around, there was a weight on her chest, and the woman's elegant fragrance came, followed by the puffing sound of arrows piercing her body, which rang clearly in her ears .

Looking at Wen Yiru's square face, Chunyuke felt his blood run cold for a moment.He almost raised his hand and threw the long knife in his hand. The blade pierced through the body of the sneak attacker. The opponent fell from the eaves with a plop, and lost his breath instantly.

Wen Yiru covered his chest, an arrow feather from his back pierced through the chest, the cloak had already fallen off, blood spread along her plain clothes from the wound, and quickly stained the clothes red.Her lips parted, she leaned close to his ear, and spit out three words, Chunyuke was trembling all over, hugging Wen Yiru's limp body, finally said, "Yes."

Wen Yiru smiled contentedly, like a child who got candy.The blood stains on the corners of her lips fell drop by drop, her face gradually turned gray, her pupils became dilated, and finally she lost her vitality.

Duan Xu looked at Wen Yiru's limp body, her whole body froze, her palms were tightly clenched, and her fingertips pierced the palms.He suddenly realized that he and Gu Jin could never be the same as they were in the previous life.I'm afraid Gu Jin will hate him very much.

"Let's go." Duan Xu gritted his teeth and left with a flick of his sleeves.

The fire blazed into the sky, and scorching air waves rolled in, but Duan Xu's heart cooled down a little bit. This road was chosen by himself.Gu Jin... If he didn't do this, he would have died long ago.The throne, he must seize the throne.When the king is in the world, there is nothing in this world that he can't get.

Duan Ye looked at Chunyuke who was holding Wen Yiru's body, turned around and bumped into the tall slender young man who was standing beside him, "Hey, people have been saved, now one is dead, what should we do?"

Song Cheng looked at Chun Yuke's condensed face and shook his head, "Your Highness, we have done what we need to do, let's go."

Duan Ye rolled his eyes, "Okay, let's go."

The guard Wu pressed back, as if he didn't see the group of them, and ran to carry a bucket to put out the fire.

The dark guard looked at Wen Yiru's body and looked at each other, all at a loss.

Chunyuke raised her hand to hold the arrow on Wen Yiru's back, and said softly, "Xiaoru, it hurts a bit, just bear with it." Pulling out the arrow violently, Chunyuke picked up Wen Yiru, and gently scattered her Her hair was brushed up very skillfully, as if she had done it countless times before.

Chunyuke looked at Wen Yiru's drooping eyelashes, the two words she called just now echoed in her mind, she opened her lips, but still didn't spit out anything, just hugged Wen Yiru's body tightly, as if using I did my best.

"Brother Xuan..."

A soft female voice came from his ear, and the girl in plain clothes grabbed the corner of his clothes and smiled innocently. At that time, she didn't know the sufferings of the world, she was loved by him, and she liked sweets the most, but... the vicissitudes of the world, he After all, it was his fault that he harmed her. For 21 years since then, it was his fault to let her taste the bitterness and suffering of the world.

"...I'm sorry..." Chunyuke hugged Wen Yiru's body, weeping uncontrollably.But no soft hand held a candy and handed it to him.
