Your Highness, has he stopped today?

Shi Yunjing sensed something strange in an instant. He looked back, the crossbow in his hand changed direction, and shot an assassin first. Falling to the ground, the remaining few people approached close at the same time. Crossbow arrows are no longer suitable for close combat. Shi Yunjing directly used the high-quality crossbow to knock down an assassin, and then quickly drew his sword to block the incoming attack. With a knife, the assassin came from behind again, Shi Yunjing leaned over and narrowly dodged, put his hand on the saddle and turned around and kicked the man over, pierced the man's rib with his sword, he frowned and said: "Who instigated it? !"

The assassin struggled in pain, but he didn't say a word, Shi Yunjing seemed to have nothing to ask from his mouth, so he simply pulled out his sword and directly pierced his chest.At the same time, Lu Zheyu and several guards raised their swords, and immediately fought with those masked assassins.

Shi Yunjing practiced martial arts with Ye Hanshan since he was a child. He is not only good at riding and shooting, but also has excellent swordsmanship.But after all, he is young, lacks actual combat and lacks internal strength. If he fights alone, it will not be a problem, but there are seven or eight assassins, and the moves are deadly. The two sides fought for a while, Shi Yunjing exhausted most of his energy, and his chest was agitated. The breath is also messed up.Lu Zheyu fought one against two, but he did not gain the upper hand.

After a while, Lu Zheyu gradually discovered that the martial arts skills of these assassins were almost the same as the ones he met at the post station last time. If the last assassination was ordered by Emperor Cheng'an, then today's assassins...

Before he could continue to think about it, he saw an assassin attacking Shi Yunjing's back with a knife. He had no time to get out to stop him, so he raised his hand and threw the scabbard away, but the scabbard missed the blade and cut On Shi Yunjing's shoulder.

"Oh!" Enduring the severe pain, Shi Yunjing turned around and cut the man's neck with a sword, and at the same time lost strength and fell off the horse, and was caught by Lu Zheyu.

When Yunjing was pampered and pampered in the palace every day, where had he suffered such an injury, his face turned pale with pain, Lu Zheyu looked down at the blood that had stained his light armor red, and he had no time to fight with others, he hugged him Shi Yunjing got on the horse, waved his whip and ran away, those assassins wanted to catch up, but were stopped by several guards, and the two sides fought again.

Lu Zheyu took Shi Yunjing and galloped through the woods, but luckily those guards were dead soldiers from the Xiao residence, and the group of assassins did not catch up again.But Shi Yunjing's breathing became more and more heavy, and the wound on his shoulder was still bleeding.Lu Zheyu could only tighten the reins and stopped, helped him off the horse and sat next to a tree, looked down at him, but saw that his face became paler due to blood loss: "Your Highness? Can you still hold on? "

Shi Yunjing didn't have the energy to speak anymore, so she just shook her head, meaning it's okay.But Lu Zheyu thought that he meant "I can't hold on", so she frowned, stretched out her hand and touched several acupoints near his wound to stop bleeding, and tore off a piece of cloth to wrap his wound tightly.

Shi Yunjing's wound hurt even more from this blow. It was rare for him to see Lu Zheyu, who had always been calm and breezy, look nervous. You can't die if you get to the point, why are you nervous?"

Lu Zheyu looked at him with a smile at this moment, and felt very helpless: "Save your energy and find a safe place first, it will be bad if those assassins catch up again."

Shi Yunjing nodded, gritted his teeth and stood up, Lu Zheyu helped him onto the horse.

At this time, the sky has gradually darkened.Although Shi Yunjing was quite familiar with this place, it was always difficult to walk at night, plus he was injured, he must have only spent one night in this forest today.

After another half an hour, Lu Zheyu found a cave under the guidance of Shi Yunjing, and the two got off the horse. Lu Zheyu helped him in and sat on the stone wall.

The sky was completely dark, and the temperature in the mountains and forests was getting lower and lower, almost freezing.Lu Zheyu picked up some dead branches and lit a fire in the cave, which gave him a little warmth.

Shi Yunjing's wound still needs to be taken care of, otherwise it will be infected after a long time.Lu Zheyu used to fight outside, and when the army didn't have enough wound medicine, he often went outside to gather some hemostatic grass to apply to the wounds, but it's freezing cold, so I don't know if they can be found outside, but he has to look for it first.So he discussed with Shi Yunjing: "His Royal Highness wait here alone, I'll go out and pick some herbs, okay?"

Shi Yunjing leaned against the stone wall and curled up with his eyes closed, the fire light reflected under his eyes, making his eyelashes dense and thick.

But he didn't respond to his words.

Lu Zheyu raised his hand to cover his forehead, thinking in his heart that something was wrong, Yunjing was having a high fever at the time.He took a veil from his arms, hurriedly walked outside the cave, wet the veil with the snow outside, and covered his forehead.Shi Yunjing woke up dazedly by the cold snow, saw Lu Zheyu's worried expression, and closed his eyes again.

"Can you don't look like the king is about to die." Shi Yunjing whispered in a hoarse voice.

Lu Zheyu had no intention of arguing with him, and only asked in a low voice: "Your Highness, I'm going out to gather some herbs, and you are here by yourself, okay?"

Shi Yunjing said weakly: "You just said you were going, but this king thought you had already returned..."

Lu Zheyu frowned: "Did you hear that just now?"

Shi Yunjing closed her eyes and murmured: "It's just that I don't have the strength to speak..."

Lu Zheyu didn't delay any longer, took off his cloak and covered him, and went to gather medicine.

Fortunately, the moonlight was still good tonight, and under the faint moonlight, he really found the hemostatic grass, picked a few plants in a hurry, returned to the cave, crushed them, and applied them to Shi Yunjing's wounds.Although the wound was deep, it had condensed after a long time. When the herbs were applied, Shi Yunjing still couldn't help frowning and moaning a few times.

The veil was warmed by his forehead, and Lu Zheyu went outside again to wet the veil and cover his forehead.Shi Yunjing was feeling uncomfortable, frowning all the time.

"Is your Highness uncomfortable?" Lu Zheyu asked.

Shi Yunjing felt uncomfortable all over his body, but he didn't bother to say it, he just said: "The stone wall is too hard, it's uncomfortable to lean on."

"..."

It really is the young master's heart, do you still expect to sleep on a comfortable bed in the wilderness?At that time, Yunjing wanted him to endure it, but saw him move to his side, leaning on him, and said quite satisfied: "It's better this way."

Lu Zheyu really wanted to push him away, but he couldn't bear to treat a sick patient like this, so he let him lean on him stiffly. After a while, he sighed softly: "Your Highness insisted on pretending to be sick a few days ago, but now he is really sick." Yes, it can be said that the retribution is not good."

Shi Yunjing moved her body and changed into a more comfortable position: "I'm not sick, I was chopped off."

Lu Zheyu looked down at him: "Your Highness has a high fever, isn't it a disease?"

"...You are the only one who is sick." Shi Yunjing closed her eyes, ready to rest her eyes.

Lu Zheyu looked at his eloquent cursing, and it really didn't look like he was seriously ill.He knew that a verbal war could not be won, so he simply stopped responding.After a while, Shi Yunjing spoke again in a low voice: "The martial arts skills of those assassins are exactly the same as those assassins encountered in the station."

"Your Highness also found out?"

"At first, the king still had doubts," Shi Yunjing let out a breath slowly, with a slight tiredness in his voice. "Now it seems that he really wants to put the king to death."

he?who is it?Lu Zheyu was slightly taken aback.He suddenly remembered the conversation he heard when he passed by Shi Yunjing's bedroom that day. Someone told him not to act rashly without evidence.

"Who is the person Your Highness is talking about?" Lu Zheyu asked.

Shi Yunjing was silent for a moment, and then said in a low voice: "These assassins were sent by the emperor."

Sure enough... Yan Lingjun's guess was right, he really knew that the assassin was from Emperor Cheng'an.And he noticed that just now, Yunjing said "Emperor" instead of "Father Emperor".

Lu Zheyu's thoughts were very confused, and he didn't respond quickly. Shi Yunjing raised his eyelids to look at him, and said quietly: "This king said so, why don't you show any surprise?"

"..." Lu Zheyu was startled.

Shi Yunjing snorted softly, having nothing in hand, she simply grabbed the wet handkerchief on her forehead and threw it at him. "At Qianqing Palace that day, Jiang Yan said that those assassins came from Chen Guo. You have suspected it for a long time, haven't you?"

Lu Zheyu caught the handkerchief and hurriedly folded it on his forehead again, explaining: "I thought those assassins came after me and other hostages, so we have to investigate clearly."

"Then you started to investigate and found out that it was related to the emperor, but you didn't know why the emperor acted like this, so you wanted to start with the Xiao family. Just now you asked me about Prime Minister Xiao. Is what I said right?"

"..." Lu Zheyu was convinced that Shi Yunjing was indeed the smartest among the princes of Chu.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Shi Yunjing also understood in his heart, and said again: "What did you find out in your investigation?"

Lu Zheyu didn't want to hide it from him again: "I didn't investigate anything, but I heard something that day." Afterwards, Lu Zheyu said the conversation between Jiang Yan and Li Zhongren that he heard behind the rockery that day. Tell Shi Yunjing exactly.

Shi Yunjing was not surprised at all, but just raised her eyes and glanced at him: "In that case, why didn't you tell me that day?"

"It happened for a reason. If you tell His Highness directly, first of all, there is no evidence, how can His Highness believe it? Second, if His Highness says that I am sowing dissension, how can I justify it?" Lu Zheyu said truthfully.

Shi Yunjing snorted softly, it was unavoidable to feel uncomfortable in one posture for a long time, so he changed his posture and leaned into his arms again. "...How can this king be such a person who can't tell right from wrong."

Lu Zheyu thought to himself, how often does he not know right from wrong?He can also say that black is white in a verbal fight.But although he is usually unreasonable, he is still reliable in business.

"Chen... there is still one thing I don't understand." Lu Zheyu changed the subject.

"You said."

Lu Zheyu pondered for a moment before saying: "Your Highness, you know why His Majesty sent someone to assassinate?"
