Chapter 338
Xu Ruyi's words can be described as concise and to the point.

Don't ask her if she recognizes this assassin, there is more than one assassin here!
After getting this news, Fu Ziyuan immediately sent people to search nearby, and Jing Yu had to go with him on horseback. Before leaving, Jing Yu said: "You may not be able to come back in a while, you go back to the camp and wait." Me, let Sledgehammer cook something for you later, don’t be hungry, I’ll go as early as possible.”

After saying that, Jing Yu followed Fu Ziyuan into the mountain to search for the assassin. After hearing that there was more than one assassin, the courtiers were too frightened to leave their tents.

After Xu Ruyi returned to the tent, she only ate a bowl of hot porridge, then sat on the bed and waited for Jing Yu's news.

Seeing that Xu Ruyi refused to rest, Xingtao persuaded softly: "Princess, why don't you rest first, the second master probably won't come back tonight."

"It's okay, looking at the current situation outside, no one will be able to live in peace tonight, why not wait for the news and see what else the assassin wants to do."

Xingtao knew that it was so chaotic outside, causing people to panic, and Xu Ruyi couldn't rest at all.

In desperation, she could only respond.

At this time, Xu Ruyi added: "Turn off the lights, so as not to be questioned later, I don't have the energy to serve them."

"Yes!"

After the lights were turned off, Xu Ruyi was lying on the bed alone. She could still hear the chaotic sounds outside, and she could also feel her heart beating uncontrollably.

Even with the soothing decoction, this situation cannot be suppressed at all.

She was thinking, if he could rush into the camp and cut Xu Yinghong's neck so quickly, this assassin might very well be the one who kidnapped her!
If Jing Yu hadn't gone to save him, she would have heard the mourning of ghosts and wolves outside.

Besides, what good would it do to save him?Can he still add an official to Jing Yu?Don't you take this for granted?
This was the first time that Xu Ruyi was a little dissatisfied with Jing Yu's actions, because Jing Yu knew Xu Yinghong's character!

His arrow should have missed, let the assassin pierce Xu Yinghong's neck and make another arrow!

After thinking of this, Xu Ruyi suddenly realized that her current mood was very wrong.

What is she thinking!

If Xu Yinghong was assassinated under Jing Yu's nose, would those courtiers let Jing Yu go?How will Jing Yu deal with herself then? !

She knew all these truths, but there was an indescribable sense of oppression.

That night, none of the courtiers and nobles in the entire camp could fall asleep, and everyone waited until dawn in fear, only to find that there was no assassin at work, so they felt more at ease.

At this time, Fu Ziyuan also led the team back. When they entered the mountain, they did find the footprints of some adult men. Those footprints were all new. It was formed at night, so they recorded the size and shape of the footprints, and continued to search into the mountain. As a result, they found a masked man in black who died under a tree on the mountainside.

Fu Ziyuan brought the corpse back and reported the situation to Xu Yinghong.

Xu Yinghong is still in a state of shock. Empress Chen and Xu Changjiao have been taking care of him in the tent. A total of ten imperial physicians stood inside and outside the tent, fearing that something might happen to Xu Yinghong.

After Fu Ziyuan reported the situation, Xu Yinghong told them to continue the investigation without any slack.

This made Fu Ziyuan a little bit troubled. After all, the assassin's accomplices had already run far away, so it was difficult to find them now.
