Xiao Ting is not sure what the identity of this group of people is
But one thing is obvious, even if she goes to report to the government right now, the government will only make a big deal smaller or suppress it directly.
She was a little irritable, so she went to look for Qianmai, but she knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.
Xiao Ting pushed the door open and entered, but the room was empty.
"I'll go, it's in the middle of the night, where can this guy go?"
Xiao Ting looked around and found that Qian Kai didn't even spread the quilt, which means he left here by himself.
No one from Qianmai was found, and Xiao Ting couldn't sleep, so she had to sit in his room and wait.
Unexpectedly, she fell asleep after waiting, and when she woke up, it was already the next morning.
She was woken up by the sound of firecrackers outside.
Xiao Ting rubbed her eyes and got up from the bed, washed up casually, and rushed outside.
Only after inquiring did he know that this was the guard of honor for the prince of Yue.
"The prince of the Yue Kingdom doesn't know who is coming this time?"
Xiao Ting muttered this to herself, and was about to turn around and go back to sleep.
She slept in the wrong position last night and her neck was crooked.
"Prince Dog, die!"
Suddenly there was a loud shout, like thunder on the ground, exploding in the street.
Immediately, many people in the crowd drew out their long swords and stabbed at the guard of honor.
They were all ordinary people, but they turned out to be hidden assassins.
The prince of Yue Kingdom was sitting in a carriage, and all the assassins rushed to that carriage.
However, there were so many people around him, those people couldn't get in at all, but the scene was extremely chaotic.
It happened to be in front of the inn where Xiao Ting and the others lived.
Before Xiao Ting could react, she was almost knocked down and trampled under her feet. Fortunately, her reaction was not too slow, so she avoided the catastrophe.
"My God, the majestic empire, at the foot of the imperial city, isn't this too outrageous?"
Xiao Ting looked back at the scene and was dumbfounded.
It was one thing to hear what Qian Min and the others said at the beginning, but it was another to see it with their own eyes.
These people dared to blatantly assassinate the prince.
The carriage came to a complete stop, and everyone surrounded it, while the others were ready to deal with the assassins.
Obviously they were a group of well-trained guards, and all of them stared intently at everyone passing by, and those who dared to go one step further were killed.
The people in the carriage didn't make any sound.
Everyone disappeared in an instant, and Xiao Ting also retreated into the inn.
That's not interested in joining in the fun.
It's in her nature to be evasive.
However, in this world, the more you hide, the more you will come.
Miss Xiao Liu was lying on the bed just now, she was doing well, and she planned to catch up on another sleep.
Suddenly the window facing him was opened, and an ordinary boy jumped in from outside.
His expression was indifferent, and his body smelled heavily of blood.
Xiao Ting immediately jumped up.
She planned to run out through the door, but she didn't intend to get into this muddy water.
Unexpectedly, when the young man saw her, he was taken aback for a moment, and then stood there blankly.
Everyone in Xiao Ting strolled to the door only to realize that something was wrong. Looking back, she saw that the boy was crying.
Oh, no, he was crying, and there was extreme nostalgia in his eyes.
Now it was Xiao Ting's turn to be dumbfounded.
"Well, don't cry, I don't care about you, you scared me, okay?"
Xiao Ting spread her hands, expressing that she has no hostility.
However, the boy just looked at him stupidly while weeping.
It seemed very aggrieved.
"Boss..."
"You, what are you calling me?" Why is this name familiar
Xiao Ting scratched her head, a little confused.
"Boss, look at me, don't you know me?"
…
Carefully, he looked at the boy up and down.
Xiao Ting still shook her head.
Her ability to remember people is not good.
A trace of sadness flashed in the boy's eyes, but surprise returned in an instant.
"Boss, look carefully at my face, look at me, I am Xiao Tong!"
The boy pointed to his face, and looked at Xiao Ting expectantly, hoping that she would think of him.
"Xiao Tong?" Xiao Ting said nothing, then suddenly, "Ah, so it's you!"
She finally remembered how familiar this name was.
The boy didn't lie to her, they did know each other.
This is the faction that the original owner established in the imperial city when he was lawless, called the Qingcheng Gang.
It is said that the same name as this boy was given by the original owner.
When she left the imperial city to see the imperial mausoleum, she had passed by with them.
A lot of things have happened to this.
Went to Yecheng, learned about the relationship between the city lord of Yecheng and Ye Wuhua, and later rescued Li Mo indirectly.
Later, when she went to the Imperial Mausoleum, she got separated from the others and was kidnapped by two people.
Then she got out of the clutches of the devil through Chu Jiyao.
Since then, there has been no contact with this group of people.
It's just that she didn't expect to meet Xiao Tong suddenly.
At this moment, the sound of footsteps came from the stairs.
It shows that there are many people coming, and they are very eager.
Xiao Ting and Xiao Tong changed their expressions at the same time.
"Are they here to get you?"
Xiao Tong nodded.
"Take off your clothes and throw them out the window, and quickly hide on the bed."
Xiao Ting didn't have time to think, so she could only make such a judgment.
Xiao Tong didn't worry her, and didn't say anything polite, just took off her clothes and threw them outside.
There was no way, the smell of blood on the clothes was too strong.
There was already a knock on the door next door.
Xiao Ting opened all the windows and went to the door.
"Knock what? It's so loud that ghosts are killed?"
She leaned against the door with her arms folded, and looked sideways at the group of people carelessly.
The people who came to search were divided into two groups. The front was the soldiers of the empire, who didn't know any of them, and the back were obviously dressed in strange clothes. They should be the guards brought by the Yue Kingdom.
As soon as she changed her mind, she realized that Xiao Tong should have participated in the assassination just now.
"Did you see a boy covered in blood?"
The questioner was naturally a soldier of the empire, with an indifferent expression and a heroic sword in his hand.
"Oh, it's so scary, I didn't see it!"
"Get out of the way, we're going to go in and search." Before the soldiers of the empire could speak, the guards from the Yue Kingdom behind them refused to agree.
It is necessary to push Xiao Ting away and rush in.
Without saying a word, Xiao Ting leaned directly on the door frame here, raised her left foot and directly crossed it to the door frame on the right, blocking them.
With arms folded, he stared at them wantonly.
"I won't let you go today, let me see which one of you dares to break in?"
"You..." Yue is a powerful country, and people who are not afraid of the empire at all, it should be said that they look down on the empire at all.
Not to mention that they came forward, and there was such a ignorant woman.
"What are you? Get out of this girl, a group of slaves dare to show off their power in front of this girl?"
Xiao Ting looked disdainful, she didn't look at them at all, and she spoke without any scruples.
It was such words and actions that shocked these people in place, not knowing who she was.
After all, the envoys from the five countries and ten places have all come to the imperial city. Who knows how many capable people and strange men or dignitaries gathered here.
They didn't dare to offend all of them, not to mention that the woman's words were too presumptuous, and she was obviously confident.
The leader of the Yue Kingdom glanced at the soldiers of the empire, and the intention was obvious to let them rush forward.
"May I ask who the girl is, we are being ordered to capture the assassin, so please help me?"
This person stepped forward and bowed his hands in salute, he was much more polite just now.
It's a pity that Xiao Ting didn't even leave a corner of her eye.
"Where did you come from? In the palace, or guarding the city gate? Where is Xu Wei?"
As soon as this person heard it, he knew that Xiao Ting was not bluffing, Xu Wei was the commander in chief, even if he was sent outside the palace now, no one would dare to call him by his first name.
The woman in front of him looked familiar, obviously not from the imperial city, but he was so familiar with Xu Tongling, he should be a relative of the empire.
While identifying Xiao Ting's identity in his heart, he replied, "Miss knows our leader?"
"What do you say?"
Xiao Ting ignored Yue Guo's angry eyes, but pointed to the next room.
"That's my friend's room. You can't go in if no one else is here. This room is my girl's. Not to mention it's just a group of entourage from the Yue Kingdom. Even if your prince comes here, you dare not go in. Unless you can get the imperial decree, if you want to find someone, hurry up and don't disturb me to sleep."
After Xiao Ting warned them contemptuously, she put her legs back and pushed the door open, walked in, and then slowly closed the door in front of them.
"What is the identity of this woman? How dare she be so rude?" In fact, the guards of Yue Kingdom have already seen that Xiao Ting's identity is not simple.
"She seems to be..." a person behind the imperial soldier said softly.
"You know her? Who is she?"
"I don't know if I read it wrong, but she looks a lot like the Ninth Princess."
Xiao Ting is a very famous person in the imperial city of the empire, and many people recognize her, but after the Empress Dowager came back to take power, many people were replaced and the previous deployment was disrupted, so most of these people did not recognize Xiao Ting.
But there are not a few who recognize it, and a few of them also echoed.
"Isn't it just a princess, what's the big deal, go in and search, if you let the assassin go, none of you will live."
The leader of the guards of the Yue State said that the soldiers of the empire should rush forward, but everyone shook their heads and retreated.
The meaning is obvious, if they want to attack you, they will not offend the Ninth Prince.
"Isn't it just a woman?"
This time even the leader of the guards didn't speak anymore, he waved someone to find another room.
Then he stepped forward and explained in a low voice.
"I advise you not to mess with her. Besides, as a member of the royal family, how could the Ninth Princess collude with the assassin?"
After saying this, he left in a hurry.
The Empress Dowager issued an imperial edict, and all the vassal kings have arrived these days, but the newly named Li King of Li City, who was the original Ninth Prince and his concubine, was missing.
Everyone was discussing this matter, after all, the reason why the Ninth Prince left the imperial city was that he had done a huge thing.
And it has something to do with the princess.
It's just that he didn't expect to be hit by him.
