When the words came out, the big man stabbed Zi Yan's heart with the tip of his knife.
At this moment, the big man felt a burning pain behind him, and when he turned his face, he saw five or six guards standing behind him.
"Bold, you dare to murder the noble concubine in the palace, do you know what crime it is?"
"He's been stabbed, take him down!"
Zi Yan took advantage of the big man's distraction, quickly pulled his legs away, and ran out the door.
The big man saw it, his eyes widened, and he shouted: "Bitch, where are you going!"
He raised the knife and dropped it, but the knife did not hit Zi Yan's body, but was stopped by a guard raising his gun.
With a loud sound, the guard's gun was cut off, "Anyone who hinders me from killing Ziyan will die!"
The big man raised his knife and slashed at the guard, cutting off half of the guard's face, and sprayed blood on the red door.
Seeing the viciousness of the big man, other guards escaped from Fengwu Palace protecting Ziyan.
The man kicked his foot, and the end of the broken gun on the ground flew into the air. He slapped the knife, and the end of the gun was slapped out, whoosh! It actually penetrated the chest of another guard and killed him immediately.
Ziyan's soul was dissipated, and she hated her bound feet, which wobbled and couldn't walk fast.
The big man had caught up early and chopped several other guards to the ground. He spotted Ziyan's back and chopped at him.
However, at this time, there was another sound of breaking wind in the air, the big man looked up, no, in the night, several feather arrows were shooting towards his face.
The big man was taken aback, turned over, and dodged the incoming arrow.
Surrounding him was a lot of flames, and there were vague figures, shouting: "Catch the assassin! Catch the assassin!"
The big man carp jumped up and found himself surrounded by a hundred guards.
He was not in a hurry, his eyes showed a trace of disdain, but when he searched in the crowd, Zi Yan had disappeared.
"Sure enough, it's a fox, running really fast! This time, you're lucky!"
The big man was on tiptoes, and his body was light and floating, like a big bird, flying above the red wall, staring down at the guards who bent their bows and set arrows at their feet.
"Come down, or we will shoot arrows!"
The big man sneered, stomped hard with his right foot, and smashed the glazed tiles under his feet into pieces, and then he kicked suddenly, kicking out the pieces, like a dozen darts, flying towards the guards.
In the night, there was only the sound of whistling, and the guards had no idea what kind of hidden weapon the other side was kicking. It was so fast and powerful that it was impossible to avoid it.
Some were hit on the forehead and died immediately; some were hit on the chest and rolled all over the floor in pain; some were hit on the arm and it felt like their arm was broken. Immediately, a hundred guards were crying and shouting.
When the reinforcement guards rushed over, the assassin had disappeared.
"The emperor is here!"
Yan Li was about to fall asleep when he heard the news and hurried over. Seeing the guards on the ground who were still screaming in pain, he knew that the assassin's skill was extraordinary, at least he was at the same level as himself.
"Where is Concubine Ziyan?" Yan Li asked.
A voice came from the spine, crying and crying, very desolate: "Your Majesty, Ziyan is here!"
Yan Li followed the sound and saw that under the light of the lamp, a wet human head emerged from a large water tank. The emeralds on the head were dim, the face was miserable and frightened, and there was a blade of grass hanging from the corner of the mouth.
"Your majesty, my concubine almost couldn't see you!"
Usually Ziyan is dressed up, even during the time when she was locked in the attic, she also put on a thin layer of makeup. Today, in order to escape the disaster and not damage her image, she jumped into the water tank that hadn't been changed for a long time. It smells bad and looks ugly, no different from a country girl.
Seeing Yan Li, he couldn't help feeling disgusted in his heart, and frowned his sword eyebrows.
Zi Yan thought that she was so pitiful that Yan Li would come over and carry her out of the water tank, but Yan Li stood still in place without making a sound.
"Your majesty, my concubine is too cold in the water, why don't you come over and carry me out!"
Yan Li nodded to the eunuch next to him.
Two eunuchs walked over, each raised a hand and pulled Zi Yan out.
The neon clothes and feather clothes turned into seaweed.
Zi Yan didn't mind the stench on her body, so she ran over and hugged Yan Li, crying miserably.
"Your Majesty, if I hadn't been clever, I would have been killed by that villain just now! This is the Forbidden City, how could there be an assassin? This assassin is too bold and presumptuous. The Emperor must catch this assassin and kill him all over the house." !"
When Ziyan said "Chop all over the house", her eyes flashed with ferocity, and the corners of her mouth curled up ferociously.
Even if the assassin really wants to kill her, it's enough to bring him to justice, and he shouldn't kill more innocent people, which shows how vicious Zi Yan is in his heart. Seeing Yan Li, he disliked Zi Yan a little bit.
Yan Li looked stern, and scanned the palace wall: "The imperial forbidden area is heavily guarded, and ordinary assassins will never enter. Therefore, today's assassins must be people in the palace, or people who often enter and leave the palace."
Zi Yan frowned, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, I know who it is! Apart from her, I can't think of anyone who wants to kill me."
Yan Li looked at Zi Yan with questioning and serious eyes: "Tell me, who is it?"
Zi Yan said: "It must be Rong Chang'an! She hates me for letting her clean the toilet and wash the clothes. She harbors resentment and wants to assassinate me. Your Majesty, you have been kind to her again and again, but she never repents. Don't say that I am cruel to her anymore, she is even crueler to me."
Yan Li didn't take it seriously, he knew Rong Chang'an well, and he would never do such a thing, especially for a Zi Yan who didn't have any skills.
"You fought that assassin just now, was it a man or a woman?" Yan Li asked the injured guards.
The guard replied: "We can be sure that it is a man!"
Yan Li looked at Zi Yan coldly: "Did you hear that it's a man who wants to assassinate you, not Rong Chang'an!"
Zi Yan snorted: "It's not Rong Chang'an, that's someone sent by Rong Chang'an!"
Yan Li stared at him suddenly, his eyes were serious, and his tone was cold and severe: "Zi Yan, I have made it clear to you in Weiyang Palace just now, don't try to hurt Rong Chang'an again, the relationship between me and Rong Chang'an is not what you think Simple! Before there is no evidence, I will not allow you to slander her."
"But Your Majesty..." Zi Yan was so angry and wronged that she wanted to defend herself.
But Yan Li stopped her: "Stop talking!" After a pause, Yan Li added, "I will investigate this matter myself. If anyone interferes, I will never spare him!"
In Yan Li's mind, an assassin has already been designated. This assassin had such a close relationship with him that he didn't want Zi Yan to know the identity of the assassin.
Ziyan's face turned pale with anger, her staring eyes were no longer as charming and attractive as before, but terrifying and ugly. Especially her protruding jaw made Yan Li feel disgusted.
"Your majesty, you're too biased!" Ziyan snorted, flicked her cold sleeves, threw water droplets, twisted her buttocks, dragged her wet clothes, and cursed as she walked.
Back at Fengwu Palace, Ziyan was furious and vented on the altars, pots, cups and teapots in the palace. People who didn't know came in and saw it, and thought they had been thieves!
"Rong Chang'an, you finally can't take it anymore, you can't pretend anymore, can you? You want to attack me! Hmph, let's see who dies first!"
Zi Yan said to the maid next to her: "Come with me!"
