Chapter 225 Too Scary
At this moment, outside Xiao Jie's tent, there was already a river of blood, and there was no one alive, but at the door of his tent, a group of black-clothed masked men with blood-stained hands gathered.

"Boss or second child, or the two of them? Who sent you?" Xiao Jie fell on the wooden bed, he had only one leg left, unable to escape at all, he could only ask desperately.

On the ground in front of him, the throats of the two Xuanzhi eunuchs who accompanied him along the way had been cut, and blood spread to the entire camp.

The knife in the hand of the leader of the man in black was still dripping blood. He approached Xiao Jie with an extremely hoarse voice: "Since the Third Highness has already guessed it, why bother to ask."

In a hurry, Xiao Jie spat out a mouthful of blood.

He roared with tearing eyes: "This hall has disabled legs and has become a useless person. You don't want to kill Xiao Yan and Chu Yi to avenge this hall, but you want to kill this hall. You are really cruel brothers! Xiao Cong, Xiao Yu, The hall will not let you go even if it is a ghost!"

He already understood that it didn't matter who sent these assassins, it was even possible that they were written by his father!

His brothers were afraid that if Xiao Yan, who had already become King of Yu, returned to the capital, something would happen to the competition for the crown prince;
His father was also afraid that after Xiao Yan returned to Yedu, he would want to avenge the late emperor and seek power to usurp the throne.

They all want to kill Xiao Yan, so Yong Guo wants to kill himself, the third prince who has no use value, at this moment, and then blame his death on Xiao Yan, so that they can do something to Xiao Yan Find a good reason!

Unexpectedly, he didn't die at the hands of Xiao Yan, but at the hands of his close relatives.

"Don't worry, Third Highness, after you die, we will naturally avenge you." The face behind the mask of the man in black grinned, and the knife in his hand dropped.

"Whoosh-!"

A sharp arrow suddenly pierced through the tent and stabbed straight at the man in black.

In desperation, the man in black had no choice but to withdraw his knife to resist.

As soon as he blocked the arrow, the next moment, countless long arrows emerged, like arrow rain falling on the black-clothed assassins who rushed into Xiao Jie's camp.

The assassins resisted desperately, but there were too many sharp arrows, and the entire camp was shot into hedgehogs in an instant.

"Withdraw, mission failed, withdraw quickly!"

Seeing the scene outside, the man in black shouted to call other assassins to escape.

Xiao Jie watched the chaotic scene with wide eyes. Seeing the assassins running for their lives, he took advantage of the unpreparedness and buried himself in the thick quilt, curled up in a corner of the wooden bed, trembling.

After a long time, the rain of arrows stopped, and the black-clothed assassins left behind only dead bodies.

"Don't chase too late at night, interrogate the two survivors, and see if anyone is still alive here."

"Yes!"

Guards in crane robes appeared from all directions, silently pouring into the surrounding darkness.

Xiao Yan walked in, looked around, and gently picked up the broken lintel with the tip of his sword.

Following his movements, there was only a "boom", and the temporary camp collapsed completely.

Xiao Yan turned around sharply, and stabbed an assassin who was trying to sneak attack him to death with his sword.

Suddenly, he saw a blood-stained quilt in the corner, with a few sharp arrows stuck in the quilt, which were rising and falling together, similar to the frequency of breathing.

Chu Yi walked in from behind him, raised his eyebrows when he saw the quilt, and quickly understood what was hidden inside: "The third prince is blessed and lucky, and he didn't die, which is really disappointing."

The quilt did not move, and even the speed of breathing slowed down a lot.

A faint light flashed in Xiao Yan's eyes, he picked up the bow and pointed it at the quilt, his voice was leisurely and cold: "Since you don't come out, you should die."

"Don't! Don't!"

The quilt squirmed for a while, Xiao Jie, who was covered in blood, got out of the quilt, and crawled to the feet of the two, with snot and tears.

He huddled himself into a ball under the arrow rain, only one arrow was hit in the buttocks, and the rest was unharmed.

"Princess, please forgive me, my lord, please forgive me, it's too scary, too scary, woo woo woo—"

Chu Yi's red lips raised slightly, her smile was like an elegant epiphyllum blooming in the dark night.

She asked: "The third prince is talking about it, why should I spare your life?"

"My legs are disabled, and I am already a useless person. Before the princess disabled my legs, I deserved it. I dare not have any complaints.

However, if I die, Xiao Cong and Xiao Yu will definitely put the crime of killing me on your head, the prince. Even if the prince can return to Yedu safely and bear the life of a prince It will damage your reputation..."

Facing death, Xiao Jie spoke quickly, and sweat dripped down his cheeks in big drops.

"It's just fame, what is the use of this king?" Xiao Yan asked back, "Do you think the so-called crown prince, the emperor's throne, this king cares about?"

He had sat on the throne in his previous life, and the world was within his reach. What's more, if he wanted to get these, he only had to fight for it himself, so he didn't need Xiao Jixing's charity.

Xiao Jie gritted his teeth and glanced at Chu Yi.

"You don't care about the throne, but... what about Princess Yongning?"

He said in a deep voice: "They not only want my life, but they also want to prevent you from returning to Yedu, lord. There was a second time, a third time—”

Xiao Yan's eyes froze.

"I went to Yedu this time to propose a marriage for my crown prince, Dayan. Dayan is eclectic and willing to marry a woman from the Yong family as the crown princess, but was assassinated by an unknown person," Chu Yi said slowly. , "Then don't blame this palace, in the territory of Yong Kingdom... there is a big killing spree."

Xiao Jie suddenly had an ominous premonition.

When Xiao Yan heard her words, his heart suddenly became clear.

He hooked the corners of his lips and said: "What the princess said is that this time Yan and Yong can work together to destroy the royal court. The princess came here for the friendly alliance between the two countries, and this king does not want anyone to destroy the unity between the two countries. So , this king, as the Yu king of the Yong Kingdom, has the qualifications to wipe out the moths in the country, I wonder what the third prince wants?"

Xiao Jie didn't know what charades these two were playing, but he still nodded subconsciously: "I have no objection."

"Okay!" Xiao Yan showed a satisfied smile when he heard his answer, "I didn't expect the third prince to be so understanding of righteousness. It seems that this king wrongly blamed you before."

Chu Yi also asked very earnestly: "Yes, I also want to sincerely apologize to the third prince, do I need to find some more doctors to treat the third prince's legs?"

Xiao Jie looked at the two people who suddenly smiled at him with horror on his face, and couldn't help shrinking back, as if he had seen a ghost.

Where does he understand righteousness? He clearly has a small belly, okay?

What kind of cure? How did his leg break? Does Princess Yongning have no idea?
Are these two people really laughing? Why does he feel even more terrifying?

"What exactly are you going to do?" Xiao Jie's whole body is in a bad mood, and he is more afraid than meeting an assassin, "If you really can't do it, let the hall have a good time."

 Happy National Day everyone, happy holidays!
