Seeing Zhang Yuehui coming over, Wanyan Jun was furious. This talkative businessman, if he hadn't sold the news several times, maybe this matter wouldn't have been so complicated.
Wanyan Jun blocked the door impatiently and said, "Boss Zhang, I'll be happy if you don't help me. There's nothing I need from you here. Please come back."
Zhang Yuehui shamelessly took a look inside and caught a glimpse of the blood on the ground, with an attentive look on his face: "Sir, is Di Ji injured? I have some rare medicinal materials that can instantly relieve even serious injuries after taking them. .”
Wanyan Jun paused. Although he was wary of Zhang Yuehui, he also knew that he was a well-rounded businessman who was only interested in profit. He would never stab someone in the back and tear someone's face apart. He would just give him medicine. He was just here to show his courtesy. After all, he was still the biggest force in Lidu Mansion and he wanted to curry favor with him. He can accept this courtesy, and it will definitely be good for Xu Keyue's injury.
"Then you won't go get it?" Wanyan Jun frowned.
Nan Yi listened nervously in the room, always feeling that Zhang Yue's return was not that simple.
Sure enough, I heard Zhang Yue reply: "It's just that the dosage of this medicine needs to be controlled very accurately, otherwise it will be extremely poisonous. If there is a doctor in the house who knows Di Ji's body best, why not let her go with me to get the medicine?" .”
"Come here," Wanyan Jun ordered Nan Yi, "come with Boss Zhang."
Only then did Zhang Yue follow Wanyan Jun's words and look at Nan Yi very naturally. He pretended not to recognize her and met her gaze calmly.
Nan Yi was so anxious that she shook her head slightly at him and asked him for help with her eyes, but Zhang Yue turned a blind eye.
Only then did Nan Yi understand... Zhang Yuehui wanted to take her away in this mess. But she couldn't refuse at this time!
If she followed Zhang Yue back like this, how could she take Di Ji away? Didn’t the plan fail?
Nan Yi could only delay for a while: "I need to give Di Ji acupuncture first to stabilize her injury, and then I can go get some medicine from Boss Zhang."
Wanyan Jun was pressed for time, so he waved to a guard, "You will follow Boss Zhang and the doctor later, and I will chase the assassin."
With that said, Wanyan Jun strode away.
Nan Yi quickly entered the tent and looked at Xu Keyue.
Xu Keyue was about to stuff something into Nan Yi's hand, signaling for her to take the thing first and leave, but Nan Yi held her hand down and shook her head silently and resolutely.
She said that she would be rescued together.
Within a moment, Nan Yi walked out of the tent.
Zhang Yuehui nodded to her calmly, turned around and led the people out. The guards followed the two men.
After leaving Wanyan Mansion, the streets were already a little chaotic. The assassin's incident had obviously spread to the surrounding streets. The carriage could not move in the busy city, so we could only go there on foot.
Zhang Yuehui walked a little eagerly, fearing that Nan Yi would run away halfway, so he didn't care, so he grabbed her wrist in front of the guards and pulled her forward along the neighborhood.
His pace was long, and Nan Yi staggered a little as he followed.
After walking a few steps, Zhang Yuehui's footsteps suddenly stopped, and his unfocused eyes became extremely sharp, staring at Nan Yi closely.
This "Nan Yi" unconsciously took a step back.
Zhang Yuehui had already noticed something strange. This was definitely not the way Nan Yi would behave or look in his eyes. He couldn't believe it, because he had no defense against Nan Yi, and he never thought that she would lie to him.
He couldn't care less, and reached out to touch her temples to make sure there were no traces of the human skin mask there. As soon as he reached out, someone blocked her.
I saw a man in black jumping down from the eaves and blocking in front of "Nanyi". A man also came out of the alley and quietly killed the guard who followed him from behind. Zhang Yuehui's secret guards immediately took action and exchanged blows with the two men, but they were not willing to fight. They pulled "Nan Yi" on and left, disappearing at the end of the dark alley in the blink of an eye.
The secret guard wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Zhang Yuehui.
That's not Nan Yi at all.
——He is too careless! The human skin mask he could get, Bingzhusi could get it if he could find a way, so their actions couldn't be without a backup plan.
That person just now must be Xu Keyue.
The real Nan Yi... is still in Wanyan Jun's mansion!
Zhang Yuehui's mood was like the gradually dimming sky. He couldn't stop the setting sun that was about to fall towards the valley. He tried his best to hold on, but only retained a bright afterglow for a moment, and then everything was left in the dark night.
He wanted to take advantage of the situation and take Nan Yi away from that dangerous place. He doesn't care about the princess of the old dynasty, nor the king of the new dynasty. The clarity or chaos of this world has nothing to do with him. He just wants to hold on to the last bit of warmth that belongs to him. He thought this was Xie Queshan's conspiracy. He had bewitched Nan Yi and deliberately placed her in a position that restricted him. He didn't want his beloved girl to become a bargaining chip in the dispute.
He thought that by putting her in that situation, she would have nowhere to escape and would willingly leave with him.
But she was actually willing to trade herself for Xu Keyue.
Only then did he realize that she was willing.
"You haven't seen her for so long that you don't know what kind of person she is now."
Xie Queshan's words were like a lingering curse. Even if he didn't believe it and sneered at it, everything was moving in that direction.
This time, he hurt her again.
He clearly wanted to get closer to her and save her.
Zhang Yuehui's hands were trembling, and he was a little at a loss - what should he do?
……
Wanyan Jun led his men to chase the assassin all the way. The more he chased, the more he felt something was wrong. No matter how good a person is in Qinggong, his physical strength will be reduced after flying over the walls for so long. But the man in black always moved nimble and fast. Occasionally he would disappear between houses, and then quickly pop out, sneaking them all over the city, but allowing them to follow him closely.
Wanyan Jun realized it—this was not a person at all! This is a planned "escape relay", a strategy to divert the tiger away from the mountain! Then the house is empty at this time, Xu Keyue...
"Go back home! Go back home immediately!" Wanyan Jun shouted angrily.
Nan Yi pretended to be Xu Keyue and sat in the tent, quietly waiting for time to pass.
She had to wait for Xu Keyue to be rescued and hear the signal from her companions before she could escape. Otherwise, the guards in the mansion would react and chase Zhang Yue back, and her plan would be in vain.
Finally, she saw a bunch of fireworks exploding in mid-air outside the window, which was a signal that the rescue was successful!
Nan Yi immediately stood up, climbed out of the window, and quietly knocked down the two guards at the door with the arrows in his sleeves.
She walked through the terrain of the mansion countless times every day and could feel it with her eyes closed.
However, just when everything was going well and he was about to see the light of day, Wanyan Jun led his troops to fight back. He found that Xu Keyue was not in the room, but the mattress was still hot. He must still be in the house. He had not been running for long, and people immediately surrounded him. The mansion was searched on a large scale.
Nan Yi was forced to turn back and hide in the garden, but the garden scenery was simple. If Wanyan Jun searched the house on a large scale, she would be found soon.
Nan Yi has been forced to the end. The strange thing is that she no longer feels afraid at this moment. On the contrary, she was very calm. In fact, she was grateful to Zhang Yuehui for coming and at least taking Xu Keyue out safely.
Her mission was completed ahead of schedule.
Today, she can finally understand Pang Yu's mood when he went to die. Between life and death, people can still choose faith. Nan Yi's belief is simpler. If her death can be exchanged for greater value, allowing more bad people to die and more good people to live, it will be worthwhile.
She just felt it was a pity. Before setting off, Song Muchuan said seriously into her eyes, "Don't die."
When she was changing clothes with Xu Mengyue, she held her hand with a cold hand and told her tearfully, "Don't die."
She also has some people she hasn't had time to say goodbye to, people she wants to see again.
Nan Yi clenched the dagger in his hand, preparing to fight to the death. No matter life or death, go all out.
It was as if some god heard her cry in her heart. She, a person who had always been very unlucky, had a chance of improvement at this critical moment.
The searching soldiers did not arrive as expected, and when the procession approached the garden, they turned around and went back.
At the gate of the mansion, another group of soldiers rushed in, and it turned out that Husha also brought people. The two groups of people faced each other in the yard, and no one was willing to give in.
In fact, it was just now that Usha learned from Zhang Yue that Xu Keyue might bring the edict of succession. When he thought about it, Xu Keyue was brought to Lidu Mansion by Wanyan Jun. At that time, he said he could do both kindness and power, but now something happened to his people, but he didn't say a word. If the edict of succession is found, then how can Wanyan Jun not take the credit?
It must be that he didn't find her, deliberately suppressed the news, or that he was deceived by the beauty trap and wanted to protect his woman. No matter what it is, this is a good opportunity to unseat Wanyan Jun!
Just when Usha was thinking about how to make this big deal happen, he heard that there was an assassin in Wanyan Jun's house. He immediately brought the leader of the Black Crow Battalion, Yao Jiu, to the house aggressively to "help capture the assassin."
Yajiu and the Black Crow Battalion under his command are the real iron-blooded army of the royal court. They do not align with any faction in the royal court. They are here under the king's orders. It is just a task to assist Husha. They have only one goal, to open up the territory of Daqi. Excavating the soil and paving the way.
Anything that harms the interests of the royal court will be removed by the Black Crow Battalion without hesitation. So to prove Wanyan Jun's dereliction of duty, of course, Yajiu must see it with his own eyes so that he can have a strong witness when reporting to the court in the future.
When Wanyan Jun saw Yajiu's arrival, his heart dropped. He could only tear through the mask of harmony among his colleagues, and he would not hesitate to fight with swords to make his soldiers defend, and he must not let Hu Sha break in.
Because Xu Keyue is no longer in the mansion, if Husha finds out the clues, his career as an official will be over.
As a result, the two groups of people were at war with each other, and the smell of gunpowder was imminent.
This was an advantage for Nan Yi, who was looking for a way out in the cracks. She took advantage of this moment to jump to the eaves and escape, and escaped.
Yajiu's eyesight was very good, and he was able to capture a figure even in the darkness.
"Someone ran away!" Yajiu looked solemn and immediately jumped up to the roof and chased after him.
"Hurry up and chase the assassin!" Husha gave the order, and the soldiers he brought immediately rushed forward.
Wanyan Jun's people were still stunned and guilty when they were dispersed.
The army was defeated.
Wanyan Jun knew that he was finished. As soon as Yajiu took action, nothing could be hidden. In this round, he lost completely.
……
Nan Yi didn't dare to look back and ran and jumped on the eaves. She wanted to leave the sphere of influence deployed by Qibing as soon as possible. The path she could choose was limited, and she inevitably passed the boundary of Wangxuewu.
Of course, she didn't want to enter Wangxuewu. Firstly, it would bring trouble to Wangxuewu. Secondly...she didn't want to return to this cage. In Wangxuewu, she was an unpopular and humble illegitimate daughter, a widow who brought unknown circumstances. She was forced to hide her willfulness and restrain her hands and feet in order to cater to the etiquette of the aristocratic family. She finally broke free from these shackles, and she didn't want to go back.
However, not far away, Zhang Yue pointed the crossbow arrow in her hand at the girl jumping between the eaves.
He finally saw clearly that she was an eagle about to fly. But under this night sky full of dangers, the higher she flies, the more dangerous she becomes.
If he couldn't keep her, then he would find a cage that could trap her.
Rather than completely losing this person in this world, he would rather she hate him.
He wanted her to be safe.
Phew - an arrow shot out of the air and hit Nan Yi's calf. She felt a pain in her leg, lost her balance and fell.
It happened to fall in the backyard of Wangxuewu.
It was a leisurely night, and Lu Jinxiu and a few female envoys were playing with potted plants in the yard. There was a bang, and a black figure fell from the sky, startling the female envoys in the yard.
Everyone was startled. Someone with sharp eyes recognized Nan Yi and said tremblingly: "Young Madam?"
