Chapter 299 Assassination Late Night

The scene at this time has explained everything, and too many details have been unbearable to repeat.

Miss Gu, who was dressed in disheveled clothes, did not have the usual momentum of opening her teeth and claws at all. There were only embarrassment and bruises all over her body. When Lu Jin found her in the haystack, her whole body... was almost **, and her breath leaned against the wall of the cave, hovering between life and death.

This kind of Gu Zitao... makes everyone who knows her feel very surprised and sad.

Lu Jin took off his robe and wrapped her up. He gave her a preliminary diagnosis in a private house closest to the mountains. Her condition... was not very good.

It's only a hundred miles from Gyeonggi to the capital, but for the first time Lu Jin feels that it is so bumpy and difficult to travel! He didn't know how he would explain to Gu University after Gu Zitao went back! How to explain to the yellow and white orange! How to explain to Yunshang, who is still far away from Shu to quell the rebellion at this moment!

I hope God has eyes and can leave Gu Zitao's life! But for Miss Gu, who has always been higher than the sky, such a survival... Will life be better than death?

***

The heavy rain finally poured down, and the sky and the earth were vast.

The noisy situation has long been controlled, and only the guards of the princess's house are still busy with the follow-up settlement work; Yunshang did not return to the house, standing under the long eaves, staring at the already gray courtyard.

This is no longer the scene of murder, but the small courtyard where she lives; and even the pastry room over there, the blood stains have long been washed away by the rain; Yunshang clearly knows this, but she still feels faintly nauseous.

The rivers and lakes, mountains and forests that I once yearned for are getting farther and farther away from her, right?

A Yulin guard behind him coughed gently and pulled the wandering Yunshang back to reality. She suddenly remembered something and suddenly turned around, "Why hasn't General Lu returned it yet? Did you find Miss Gu? Are you going to ask someone?"

"I'm looking for..." The Yulin guards answered and looked at each other, but they didn't move.

Yunshang was about to make a move, but he saw Kong Jie wrapped in a cloak and rushed over from the rain. "Princess Wuyou, these bodyguards are arranged by my subordinates to protect Princess Wuyou, and it is strictly forbidden to leave without permission. On General Lu's side, someone has been visiting. Princess Wuyou, please be relieved.

Yunshang nodded and looked up at the door of the wing room. There was a shadow over there that could be seen a person looking at her through the heavy rain. Knowing that it was a maid, she couldn't help but warm her heart and asked Kong Jie, "Have you ever heard from Miss Gu?"

With so many days of great noise, even she has received this news in the middle of Shu. How can the capital not be in a hurry at all? Did Gu Zitao's father watch his daughter disappear so calmly?

In the middle of the question, another figure wrapped in a cloak appeared behind Kong Jie, whispering something. Kong Jie listened, and Fang turned to Yunshang and replied, "Just now, there are also assassins on General Lu's side..."

Yunshang took a few steps forward, and the rain from the slanting wind wet her cheeks and clothes. "What's the result?"

"All the assassins are killed."

Yunshang breathed a sigh of relief, but Kong Jie said, "It's just..."

"Just what?"

"Well, princess, it's like this. The news from the capital said that they had been looking for Miss Gu after she disappeared that day," Kong Jie said, looked up at Yunshang's face, and slowly added a few words: "Someone went to Beihou's house to inform. It is said that he knew Miss Gu's whereabouts."

Yunshang was stunned and muttered.

However, Kong Jie was unwilling to ask, "Princess, Miss Gu, do you need our informant to send someone to look for it outside? And who did you give to the assassin who just caught for questioning?

Yunshang waved her hand tiredly and said, "Since Your Majesty is already looking for Gu Zitao, Gu Zitao should not be a big deal. I don't think the rain will stop for a while. Is it almost five days now? Everyone should take a rest first. Those assassins, just send a reliable person to watch. Everything will be discussed with General Lu tomorrow.

Kong Jie looked up at Yunshang with a complicated look and said faintly, "Yes."

Yunshang closed the door with his backhand, leaned against the door, closed his eyes and rested.

I don't know if they will listen to her. Where is Gu Zitao now?

In terms of quality alone, Kong Jie's identity should actually be higher than her. Nowadays, even if she is sent by Emperor Feng Zifeng to protect her safety, there is no need to obey her orders; this can be seen from the attitude of the "Yulin Guards" who follow her today. If she is not too confident, I'm afraid they won't let her take a step out of the room; but what is her advantage now is that these Yulin guards follow her as the bodyguards of the princess's mansion, so they are nominally her subordinates...

It's just that she grasped the disappearance of Gu Zitao at the first time, which made several Yulin guards obviously have doubts.

She doesn't really believe that Gu Zitao's disappearance has anything to do with those assassins. Although she did arrange an informant in Gu Wenlun's house, she really didn't know what was wrong with Gu Zitao before. All this doubt came from a nightmare she had before she woke up that morning.

She thought about a lot of people who had committed her sins, including Cao Ruyan, Feng Pingzhang, and even thought about the Empress Lifei. But her informers sent messages to show that this matter had nothing to do with these people.

Who else will be there? Do you hate her so much or Gu Zitao so much?

A pair of warm and dry hands stroked her forehead, and carefully wiped the water marks on her face and the wet blouse outside. Then he asked slowly, "Yunshang little beauty? Who messed with you?"

"Nothing, I'm just thinking about Sister Gu, Lian Zhun, you said Sister Gu..."

Looking at her eyes full of anxiety, Lian Zhun's steel-like heart also turned into softness, and gently kissed her on her forehead, "How is that possible? That guy Gu Zitao is very lucky! People are also smart and witty. Even if they are missing, they will definitely not lose their lives because of it!"

"Bah, ah, ah, ah! How unlucky!" Yunshang poked her head out, poofed a couple of poofs on the ground, and even pulled Lian Zhun, "You can also poof twice. In case Sister Gu has something to do, it's not a joke."

"Okay, pooh, pooh! Crow's mouth, crow's mouth. Lian Zhun touched her hair. When she hugged her, she felt that her body was soft and warm. She couldn't help getting closer. "Have you changed your rouge today? The color is so light that it doesn't deserve your beautiful face.

"And the taste is not as elegant as usual." He frowned a little and sniffed beside her cheek.

A bad smile gushed out from Yunshang's eyes. He put a hand into his arms and took something out. "You said the smell is different, probably because of it?"

"Ah? Little beaver!" Lian Zhunhua took two steps back and hit the corner of the table.

The little beaver was "wow" by Yunshang with one hand, as if the two of them had disturbed its clear dream.

Lian Zhun stood up angrily and looked at the smiling Yunshang with a proud smile, "You, you, you! Little beauty, I won't take you to play like this!"

"Ha! I haven't found a suitable place to let it sleep, so tonight, I have to be wronged. You will be wronged on the low couch next to you for a night!"

***

The next day, the rain stopped, and Yunshang and Lu Shen decided to temporarily delay at this humble post station to figure out the bizarre assassination.

However, Yunshang did not participate in the interrogation of those "village men". She had already known the simple context of this matter from Lian Zhun's mouth.

It turned out that these arsoners were really the villagers nearby. Because they were dissatisfied with the shortage of weight when the post station collected the number grass and bullied others, they discussed the action together and worked hard to burn the number grass, and they could not make the traitors so rampant.

Judging from the results of Lu Shen and others' questions later, they really have nothing to do with those assassins. At that time, Yulin's guard and Lu Shen Kong Jie killed several assassins and left their bodies, but neither the villagers nor the postmen knew these people.

However, the identity of these people is not a problem. Lu Shen, Kong Jie, and the Jixi County magistrate who came to hear the news all agreed that these assassins should be the well-known "Fire Lotus Master" disciples, known as the "Barefoot Fire Lotus" fairy brothers.

The reason why they can confirm it is that they are all wearing red boots on their feet... When they heard Lian Zhun's introduction, Yunshang laughed out, "So that's what bare feet means!"

Lian Zhun pretended to shake his head deeply, "The red one is red. Barefoot fire lotus, naturally a red-footed girl kneeling on a fox fairy... The rich wears red boots, and the money has a little red paint... Now that the barefoot rebellion is in line with the meaning of satisfying blood!"

In this way, things seem simple.

Huolian Sect knew that Lu Shen and Yunshang recruited Shuzhong. When they had just left the capital and there was no one around, they sent out assassins to assassinate. The original intention was to give the court a majesty. In fact, in such a dark and windy night, it was originally a good idea to take advantage of the chaos... It's just that they miscalculated the strength of Lu Shen Yunshang and others. They didn't know that there were several masters such as Yulin Guards around Yunshang; what's more, they didn't know that their calculations fell into the eyes of Lian Zhun, and they were also by Lian. It can be used to test the strength of the Yulin Guards.

Yes, Lian Zhun knew the whole thing in advance, except for the disappearance of Gu Zitao.

After the matter was clear, Yunshang did not mention leaving the post station because he still wanted to wait for the informant to report back; and Lu Shen did not mention leaving, which made Yunshang a little surprised and doubtful.

However, this question was quickly answered.
