Get pregnant quickly: Jiaojiao relies on giving birth and is favored by the boss

Chapter 417: Meeting the Ninth Thousand Year Old (62)
There wasn't much light on this side of the small bridge, so not many people were playing here, and it was getting late, so basically everyone was going back.

It was just that the temperature around her had dropped a few degrees. Lin Yan held the lotus lantern in her hand, and felt a little panic for no reason. She followed Ye Xiao's gaze and looked over. With just one glance, she was terrified.

A group of men in black appeared at the foot of the wall, with only a pair of eyes showing, staring at the two of them hungrily.

Before she could react to the incident, the men in black rushed over.

It was obvious that they were coming for Ye Xiao, and she was just a cannon fodder who was implicated. But the situation at the scene was obvious that they wanted to put the two of them to death.

How can you go out to play without any preparation?
The next second, a group of well-trained men in black also jumped out.

These were probably the so-called secret guards, and they were trained by Ye Xiao to protect him. I just don't know why he was alone in the hunting grounds before.

Maybe... he was too confident and thought he would not be assassinated?

There were many men in black who came to assassinate them, but they did not come in the same batch. There were three batches in total, which was far more than the number of their secret guards.

Two fists cannot defeat four hands, and their numbers are simply no match for the enemy's numbers. So running away is their choice.

"Let's go!" Under the protection of the secret guards, Ye Xiao pulled Lin Yan and broke out.

The flood in the south of the Yangtze River is a lucrative job, and he has almost done it now, so some people want to come and intervene and take the credit for themselves.

There are three groups of people, but no one knows who they are.

Lin Yan's mind was in a mess. Although she knew this was an assassination scene, it was her first time experiencing such a thing, so she was still a little confused. She was still holding the lotus lantern in her hand and was being pulled forward.

Although the lotus lantern is not very heavy, its speed will be slowed down a lot because of the subconscious desire to protect it.

After thinking about it, she gritted her teeth and threw away the troublesome thing, and devoted all her energy to escaping.

However, there was another group of people following them, it seemed to be the fourth group.

Ye Xiao couldn't help but curse under his breath. It was simply incomprehensible that someone would go to such great lengths to kill him.

If the emperor investigates, how will they explain themselves?
Over the years, he had naturally carried out assassinations many times, but this was the first time he had carried out such a large group of people.

Soon, the two were attacked from both sides.

With people blocking the way in front and pursuers behind, they were caught in a dilemma for a while.

Lin Yan's face was not very good. Although she had read the Four Books and Five Classics, learned medical skills, and was exposed to the Six Arts over the years, when she really encountered problems, she had no solution at all.

With so many people around, if one of them attacks her with a knife, she will be stabbed into a sieve.

Ye Xiao drew out the soft sword from his waist without haste, looked at the men in black with a serious expression, and said softly: "Find a chance to escape and call for help later."

"Okay, I understand." Lin Yan is not a fool, and this is not the time to talk about sharing weal and woe.

The best solution is to call for help. She is not some saintly woman.

The battle was about to break out, and everyone rushed towards Ye Xiao. Everyone held a weapon in their hands, and their murderous look must have been with the intention of killing him.

The only woman on the field who didn't know martial arts and looked very weak was ignored by everyone.

The visibility at night was low, and Lin Yan hid in the darkness, thinking of finding a chance to escape. So she kept observing the surrounding routes and tried not to let others see her presence. Finally, she found a breakthrough.

Just as he raised his foot, a man in black appeared in front of him. Although the man only showed his eyes, it was obvious that he had a malicious smile in his eyes.

"What do you want to do?" she asked warily.

The man in black remained unmoved. He just took out a packet of medicine powder from his arms and sprinkled it on Lin Yan's face without any warning.

"Ha Qiu!" Lin Yan was caught off guard and had her face covered with powder. Her nose felt itchy and she couldn't stop sneezing.

The man in black left after spreading the medicine, without any reluctance to leave, which made people couldn't help but call him a lunatic.

She was so nervous that she ignored the abnormality in her body. She just tensed up and headed towards the breakthrough point, trying to get help before Ye Xiao fell.

But these men in black got some unknown news and suddenly retreated.

On the empty street, the two stood there bewilderedly, not understanding what was happening at all.

"Someone from Xianyang Palace." Ye Xiao held a token in his hand and could tell at a glance where the token came from.

"Shufei? She sent people to kill you? But they..." Lin Yan widened her eyes, a little confused, why did she send people to kill Ye Xiao?

But if it was a killing, wouldn't it be too easy to get away?
"Let's go back first. This is not the place to talk." Ye Xiao shook his head, then pulled people to continue rushing towards Li's Mansion.

Tonight is destined to be a sleepless night.

The first three groups of people came with the intention of killing him, so when they were fighting, they could clearly feel the strength of the other party's killing attack.

But the fourth group of people, whose martial arts skills were not very strong, did not use too much force, as if they were just testing. After the test, they withdrew.

Ye Xiao couldn't figure out what this woman, Concubine Shu, was thinking, but regarding the previous assassination, he felt that he needed to find out the truth and then report it to the emperor.

"Are you not hurt? Why is your face so red?" He turned around and asked with concern.

Lin Yan shook her head. "I'm fine, just a little hot. Maybe it's because I ran for too long?"

"Is that so?" Ye Xiao was puzzled, but he didn't delve into it further. It seemed like there was something strange, an indescribable feeling.

Lin Yan resisted the urge to take off her clothes and wanted to go back to her room first, but as soon as they walked into the yard, her body went limp and she almost fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Ye Xiao was quick enough to hug her, thus preventing her from falling to the ground.

"Where are you hurt? I'll get a doctor for you."

"No, no... I'm just, so hot. Brother, I'm so hot!" Her mind seemed to be controlled. She began to tear off her clothes with her hands, and her body fell into his arms as soft as a boneless bone.

Ye Xiao's body stiffened and he became at a loss.

"If you're hot, take a cold shower. I'll get you some water."

"Don't go." Lin Yan pulled his sleeve and looked at him with charming eyes, "Ye Xiao, help me~"
