Chapter 4 Night attack

I was awakened by myself again.

Li Luo looked up and found that he was asleep on the desk. As soon as he fell asleep, he fell into the night. Seeing that the sky outside the window had gradually dimmed, the moon faintly appeared at the top, casting a faint silver light, which made the outside of the house even more white.

The house has been lit, and it is as bright as day. Li Luo stood up, stretched out his waist, and felt that something was sliding down from behind him. He looked down doubtfully. It turned out to be a fox velvet, so he bent down and picked it up and dusted it off. At a glance, he saw the fox velvet with silver edges and embroidered with lavender petals. Li Luo smiled. Maybe it was Ah Lian's girl who had come.

"Is the princess awake?" Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive.

"Well, I just woke up for a while," Li Luo said with a smile.

A Lian put the lamp in his hand on the table, stepped forward, smiled and helped Li Luo put on fox velvet, and said to her, "Just now, when I saw that the princess was sleeping heavily, I didn't want to wake up the princess, so A Lian took the fox velvet to put it on the princess, for fear of being infected with wind and cold."

Li Luo smiled and knew from a child that A Lian was the most considerate and good at taking care of people. She was the most careful in the garden, and it was not in vain to save her.

Speaking of A Lian's background, I only felt that she was also pitiful. At a young age, she lost her parents. Fortunately, at the age of eleven, the Yue King went out to hunt and saved her in the mouth of a big gray-black wolf. Since then, she has been following Yu Liluo and taking care of her living and diet. After all, they have also grown up together since childhood. When Li Luo met her, she was as old as Li Luo.

Li Luo turned around and looked at the dark sky outside the window and asked, "A Lian, how many days is it now?"

"It's already the time"

"Ah? Has it been so long in the night?" She looked at the bright moon in the sky in surprise.

"Is the princess hungry? A Lian is going to send you dinner"

"Hmm"

I consciously touched my stomach, and I was really a little hungry. Seeing that A Lian picked up the lamp from the table and ran out with a smile on her face. Seeing her playful and cute appearance, Li Luo just squeezed his lips and smiled faintly.

After dinner, A Lian prepared hot water for Li Luo. The fragrant rose slices were sprinkled on the bathtub. The maids of honor added hot water to the bathtub one bucket after another, making the whole room covered with steam, slowly emitting hot air and fog.

When they were ready, they retreated one by one. They knew her. When bathing, Li Luo never liked to let others serve. It was not for anything. They just felt that others peeped at them when they were bathing. As a woman, they were somewhat ashamed.

After they all left, they slowly eased their clothes through the screen, and put their jade feet into the bathtub full of rose petals. When the whole person sat completely in the bathtub, her little face quickly turned red. She lowered her head and looked at her reflection and smiled. The handkerchief gently wiped the white and tender skin, neck, arms, delicately and gently wiped, and the drops of water rolled down on the chest. The moonlight outside the window is as soft as catkins at this moment, and the blue smoke tilts down through the window. It is hazy and gentle, and the clear light reflects her around her into a round of colorful halo.

Li Luo slowly raised his hands and held a few fragrant roses in his hand. In the light of the light moonlight, he looked delicate, making his hands more and more white and tender as water. After bathing for a while, she leaned her head against the edge of the basin and slowly closed her eyes. The warm steam made people a little sleepy.

I was intoxicated with the warm bath. Suddenly, a cool breeze came from behind, and a dark shadow suddenly appeared on the side of her body. Suddenly, I was shocked. When I wanted to get up, a sharp sword, with a faint cold light, was already on her neck, extremely cold.

Li Luo suddenly got up and took a breath of cold air. His whole body was stiff and his heart was cold. It's terrible. Didn't he meet an assassin?

"Surround this place for me" was accompanied by a stern drink, and the neat and heavy pace surrounded the pear garden without dripping.

Outside the house, the fire was bright, illuminating the originally dark and ink garden as bright as the day.

"General, what are you?" It's A Lian's voice.

They fell in the room and listened to the movement outside the house, and their words were clearly heard. Isn't the famous general in her mouth the famous one?

Speaking of this fame, everyone in the palace knows that he is a first-class master around Luo Mingyue. He has a sword hanging around his waist and is skilled in martial arts. He has experienced several battlefields with Luo Mingyue. He is an excellent and good man. However, he is a handsome young man with outstanding temperament. He is about the same age as A Lian, but he exudes a breath of silence, cleanliness and patience all over his body. He is also peaceful and tolerant to get along with others. It is really difficult to connect him with the famous person on the battlefield.

"Miss Lian, have you ever seen an assassin break in?" His calm and calm voice sounded, but these words made A Lian's face turn pale with fear.

"Assassin? Where is the assassin? How can there be an assassin in the palace?" A series of questions have already exposed A Lian's fear and surprise.

"Girl Lian, don't worry. The assassin has been injured by me. He was injured and fled. We followed him all the way here."

"Miss Lian, can you let us go in and search?" He still replied in a calm voice, with a little urgency in his tone.

"No, the princess is taking a bath in it. How can you go in?"

"Miss Lian, if we don't go in to search, how can we know whether the assassin is in your garden or not? It's only offensive to protect the safety of the emperor and everyone in the palace."

A Lian's stop was not effective. Ming Yang still pushed the door in with his firm self-confidence, followed by several sword guards.

Li Luo appeared from behind the screen calmly, and a piercing cool breeze suddenly hit her, which made her tremble. Because she was not wearing any warm clothes, not even fox velvet, only wore an extremely cool, and slightly transparent goose-yellow gauze on her arm. In this way, how could she resist it? The cold in this cold winter?

"Princess, they insisted on breaking in..." A Lian walked to Li Luo's side and frowned and said to her.

Li Luo looked at her, interrupted what she wanted to say, and smiled and motioned her to go out first. She answered cleverly and stepped out of the door.

Then he turned his head to look at the handsome and tough teenager in front of him and said calmly, "General, why is that?"

He half knelt on the ground and held his hands into fists: "Ming Yang didn't get permission. He took the liberty to break into the Empress's bedroom. I hope you can forgive me."

Li Luo snorted coldly, walked to the table and sat down. He picked up the teacup and slowly poured a cup, took a sip lightly, and continued to say, "Get up, General, I just heard it clearly in the house. You are so popular this time to trace the assassin, right?"

"Yes. Mingyang pleaded with the Empress to allow Mingyang to search for the pear garden"

At this time, he had already stood up and stood upright in front of Li Luo, with a tough tone.

Li Luo still looked calm: "But I didn't hear any movement in the garden, and I didn't see any suspicious people. Famous, haven't you figured out the situation yet?"

He firmly rejected her words: "Absolutely, it is famous to follow him here. Now that he has been injured by my sword, he must not run far."

Li Luo straightened up and said calmly, "So, is Ming Yang doubting me, a hidden assassin?"

"The name doesn't mean anything, but this assassin attacked the Mingshou Hall at night and hurt the emperor. It's a big deal. He also asked the Empress to allow Mingyang to search and arrest him."

"What if I don't allow it?" Playing with the teacup, Li Luo's tone was also tough, accompanied by a slight chill.

"Don't be embarrassed. I have fought with that assassin, and I know that his martial arts are by no means under me. You must allow it to invite the Empress, so as to protect your own safety."

He is really loyal and doesn't want to let go at all. His attitude is so tough.

Despite this, she still stood up and threw the teacup to the ground. She was caught off guard and made a loud and frightening voice, which was a little harsh. She looked straight at her eyes, and her words became more and more inspiring: "Presumptuous! The boudoir of this palace, can't you search it if you say "

There is still an unconcealed trembling in his words.

The atmosphere suddenly became cold and handsome, and the air condensed. A little fine sweat began to appear on her forehead, but she did not dare to wipe it. The cool wind blew it dry one by one by one. The cold wind slowly blew over from the door. It was so cold that she shivered, but her eyes were still fixedly looking forward, and her whole body stood stiffly and straight, keeping it. Consistently calm, he did not dare to let the people in front of him find a little bit.

"The last general pleaded with the Empress." He suddenly half knelt down, and it was still the same sentence. It seems that if he is not allowed to search today, I'm afraid he won't stop.

Li Luo's face softened slightly, and his words were no longer sharp. He said quietly, "Okay, since the famous general insists on searching, even if I want to stop it, I'm afraid I can't stop it. Since you want to search, then search."

Li Luo knew that even if he was not allowed to search, with his loyal and protective nature, he would not give up. In this case, if you want to search, you can search.

During the search, he found that Ming Yang walked behind the screen. His heart was secretly frightened, and more small and fine sweat oozed from his forehead, and his face also changed from calmness just now to nervousness. Li Luo pinched his hands tightly, his lips were tight, and even his eyebrows frowned slightly, and his eyes did not dare to leave the back of the screen for a moment, still Standing upright, pretending to be calm, even the cold wind blowing in, it seems that you can't feel the cold.

After about a long time: "It disturbs the Empress. It's famous. Since there is no assassin in the pear garden, the mother's safety can rest assured. Mingyang will take people to search elsewhere. Today, due to the situation, if it is offensive, Mingyang will come to plead to the Empress another day."

When I heard this sentence, even if there was a trace of fluke in my heart, I didn't dare to show it at all. It was the first time that Li Luo lied to everyone on such an important matter. Because of his guilty heart, he did not dare to look at the famous again, so he pretended to be calm, sat at the table and calmly poured a cup of tea for himself again. , said, "It's not necessary to be sorry. I know that you are chasing the assassin this time, just for the sake of the safety of the emperor and the people in the palace. How can I blame you for such a dedicated position? You have searched and investigated today's matter. Let's give up."

In the end, Ming Yang left with a group of bodyguards, and the pear garden fell into the initial tranquility again.

When they completely went away, the line of defense in their hearts finally relaxed. Immediately, he stepped forward and closed the door tightly, then quickly walked to the screen and whispered, "Come out, Brother Yan"

A man in black stood out of the bath. With the faint candlelight, she found that his right shoulder had been soaked in blood. He wandered to Li Luo. At first, the obvious murderous spirit in his eyes had already faded, and the rest was embarrassed.

"Do you know what you are doing?" He opened his mouth in a low voice. Although he was a little cold, she still heard the slight worry in his words.

"I know"
