Lord, your mask fell off

Chapter 133

"Your Highness the Fourth Prince, the Eldest Prince is in the side hall. He said he has something to do with you, so he invites you and the slaves to come over." An eunuch walked to Xiao Ran's side and said in a voice that could be heard by everyone around him.

Xiao Ran was still puzzled at first, why did the elder brother and Qingyan disappear in the blink of an eye, and wanted to look for them, but now someone came to report it, as if he was about to fall asleep, and someone brought a pillow, so he asked Empress Xixuan for instructions, and then Follow the eunuch to leave.

Xiao Ran thought in his heart that he could see Chu Qingyan later, so he felt extremely happy. He held the doll that he was going to give to Chu Qingyan in his hand, and was a little excited. It was too late to give it away. If Qingyan followed Da Brother Huang, give it to her.

So his mind was on the meeting later, Xiao Ran was a little absent-minded, until he walked through the long corridor, crossed the lotus pond, and arrived at a remote palace.Only then did Xiao Ran feel something was wrong.

If Brother Dahuang had something to do with him, he would not choose such a remote place, why did the eunuch bring himself here?
At this moment, the eunuch who lowered the brim of his hat turned his back to Xiao Ran, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xiao Ran glanced at the empty palace and felt suspicious, "Why did my brother choose this place, did you go to the wrong place?"

A piercing laugh was heard coming from the lowered brim of the hat, the eunuch turned around slowly, put his hand on the hat, and slowly took it off.

"Fourth prince, there is nothing wrong with this place, it's just that Xiao Xu is not looking for you, but King Yama is here to claim your life!"

As soon as the words fell, the hat left his hand and flew towards Xiao Ran quickly.

When the other party turned around, Li Xiao Ran had already paid attention to it, and when he saw him making a move, he immediately turned sideways to avoid the hat, but obviously his movements were not fast enough, the eunuch took advantage of his sideways movement, drew out the soft sword at his waist, and flew towards Xiao Ran To stab.

Xiao Ran had to deal with two moves at once, but he couldn't handle it, so the soft sword pierced through the clothes around his waist, avoiding the most critical point.

The eunuch was not annoyed, he hit li xuan's shoulder hard with his backhand, li xuan spat out a mouthful of blood, his whole body rebounded and hit the stone wall behind him.

"Who are you? How dare you assassinate this prince?" Xiao Ran put his hands on the ground and stood up with difficulty. Although the corners of his mouth were bleeding, he still had the demeanor of a prince without losing his pride.

Xiao Ran knew that this person was a top killer, because he knew his own body, so he wouldn't be so vulnerable, and this person ignored his identity and wanted to attack him, so there were only two possibilities, one was that this person People are killers who are paid to assassinate others and are used to assassination, and the other is dead soldiers who are trained in the dark by dignitaries and dignitaries.

"Fourth prince, you don't need to worry about who I am, because you will go to hell soon." The eunuch approached slowly with a long sword.

"What do you want? If you are taking money from others, His Highness promises to give you three times and ten times his money." Xiao Ran ignored his movements and negotiated with him calmly.

The killer in eunuch uniform smiled coldly, "Money does not have any temptation for me, fourth prince, you should close your eyes and enjoy the feeling of dying!" He raised his long sword to his chest, It is about to stab.

Xiao Ran ruled out the first possibility, this person was not hired, but someone sent secret guards to kill him!
Xiao Ran looked at the tip of the sword, gritted his teeth, and when it was about to fall, he exerted all his strength and rolled to the side.

When the sword fell to the ground, the killer felt a little impatient. They had been out for some time, and if they didn't complete the task as soon as possible, those people might become suspicious.

So he began to speed up, and in a flash, he came in front of Xiao Ran, and slashed at Xiao Ran fiercely.

Because it is the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, every household hangs up red lanterns, which heralds the prosperity and reunion in the coming days.

Some people set up a lantern show on the street, with various riddles written on it for people to guess the riddles. As long as they guess correctly, the lantern will be sent away.

When Chu Qingyan and their carriage passed by, Chu Qingyan was already attracted by those colorful and strange lanterns.

"Big Ice Cube, I want to go shopping for lanterns." It was the first time that she was so close to ancient folk customs, and Chu Qingyan became curious.

Xiao Xu was originally a casual person, but he didn't meet a suitable partner.

Seeing the little guy's suggestion now, he asked people to stop the carriage.

After getting off the carriage, Chu Qingyan turned her head to urge Xiao Xu who was wearing a gauze hat, and then plunged into the crowd.

Seeing this, Huo Ling followed immediately to protect the little princess from getting lost.

When Xiao Xu came to her side, she had already started to guess the lantern riddles.

Without a little assertiveness, guess a word.

Looking at the riddle on the paper, Chu Qingyan thought for a while before guessing, "Now."

"Congratulations girl, you guessed it right! This rabbit lantern is for you." The stall owner enthusiastically handed the lantern to her.

Chu Qingyan took the rabbit lantern into her arms, and said with a smile, "This is for my father, he likes rabbits very much."

The stall owner glanced at Xiao Xu who was standing beside Chu Qingyan. He really couldn't tell that this air-conditioned person would like such a cute animal as a rabbit, but he still praised him, "It seems that your daughter is very filial to you. This uncle is really lucky!"

As soon as the stall owner said this, Huo Ling turned his head and burst out laughing, while Tu Ling was also in pain holding back his laughter.

"Big Ice Cube, you look old?" Chu Qingyan joked.

Xiao Xu held back his emotions, and said to Chu Qingyan who was puffing up his cheeks and dared not laugh out loud, "Are you ready to go?"

Chu Qingyan immediately stood upright, shook her head and said, "Big ice cube, I haven't given you one yet, just wait."

After looking at it for a while, Chu Qingyan chose a revolving lantern, and then asked the stall owner to bring her the lantern riddle.

No one has planted this flower since ancient times, and it will bloom every midwinter.It's strange to have no roots and no leaves, and the spring breeze blows back to the sky.

Chu Qingyan felt that the riddle was not difficult, and immediately said the answer.

The stall owner handed her the revolving lantern, and did not forget to praise Xiao Xu, "Your daughter is very smart!"

Xiao Xu's face darkened, and he pulled Chu Qingyan outside.

The earth spirit and fire spirit are a little confused, isn't the master going to raise the little princess as a daughter?Why are you not happy when someone says that?
When Chu Qingyan was about to give the lantern in her hand to the big ice cube before the carriage, suddenly a group of officers and soldiers ran up and surrounded them.

Chu Qingyan withdrew her hand and stood beside Xiao Xu, a little dazed.

The leader was Liu Nuo, the first-rank guard with a sword. He came out, cupped his hands at Xiao Xu, and said, "His Royal Highness, the fourth prince was assassinated just now. You are the most suspected. Your Majesty sent an order, please come with your subordinates." A trip to the palace."

　(An An: Can you guess the answer to the riddle on the revolving lantern? If you guess it, reward Huo Ling with a hug.

　　Chu Papa: The author is good or bad! !Reward and reward my hugs!
　　Fire Spirit:...)
