That night
Gong Eryue only picked those blind spots that were often unguarded and patrolled back and forth.
Gong'er's moon was wandering around every corner, and only the moonlight shone on the corridor, making it seem very peaceful and comfortable.
When Gong Eryue came to a corner near the back mountain, she didn't find anything unusual, so she prepared to return.
At this time, I suddenly heard someone whispering there!
Gong Eryue couldn't help being surprised:
"Is it really true that Mr. was right?!"
So, Gong Eryue followed the sound again, but saw two figures on the eaves outside a window.
Gong Eryue was worried that it might be an assassin, so she immediately walked over and heard one of them say:
"Qi'er, look at the moonlight today, it's so beautiful! Just like you..."
Then, a female voice was heard:
"Sir, when did you become so glib? If you do this again... I will be angry."
Then the two of them laughed again.
It was obvious that they were a couple in love. Although Gong Eryue was not in love, she could still tell.
"Young Master... It's just that if you say we continue like this, it won't matter after all. If this is exposed by others, wouldn't it be an insult to the Young Master's family background?"
"Don't worry, Qi'er. Everything between you and me will always turn around..."
"But...the identity of the young master and the slave family is an insurmountable gap!"
It turns out that this "young couple" is none other than Gongwei and Wang Qi! This Wang Qi dressed up as a male waiter during the day, but turned out to be a woman disguised as a man!
As for the young master who is Lu Zhaogong, how can he interact with the daughter of a servant?
It turned out that when Gongwei was still in Yunyi, he was hiding with his father all day long and had no sense of security. Therefore, for a period of time, he had to stay in a farmer's home.
And this farmer family also raised a daughter, who is now Wang Qi.
Speaking of "Wang Qi", although she is a daughter, she is righteous and aggressive by nature. When I was a child, I also took special care of Gongwei. In order to be able to protect Gong Wei, she often practiced martial arts with Gong Wei to strengthen her body during her spare time.
And this stay lasted for several years.
So, naturally, as they grow older, they develop feelings for each other.
However, with the death of Lu Zhaogong, Gongwei was finally able to return to Qufu under the escort of Li Ran.
However, with this separation, the two of them were completely separated.
After that, Lu Housong was not bad at treating his nephew. He was made a doctor and his monthly salary was quite high.
However, because other noble descendants did not dare to contact him, Gongwei was naturally isolated after returning to Qufu.
Gongwei was depressed every day, so he had no choice but to write letters to "Wang Qi" every day and exchange his heartfelt feelings with him.
And "Wang Qi" was not satisfied when he learned about Gongwei's current situation. And she misses him, her childhood sweetheart, every day.
So, he disguised himself as a man, relied on his petite figure, and concealed his age, so that he could sneak into Gongwei's house and become a "boy".
In the end, the two of them renewed their relationship in this way, and they continue to this day.
Therefore, this time, Lu Hou Song and his brothers were brought to the high platform together, and "Wang Qi" also dressed as a man and followed them.
Unexpectedly, the secret tryst between the two of them here was suddenly bumped into by Gong Eryue.
Although Gong Eryue didn't know the cause and effect, she could tell that the two of them really liked each other.
She didn't want to disturb their warm scene and was about to leave alone.
Suddenly, several black shadows suddenly appeared, and Gongwei and Wang Qi also saw those people. He reacted immediately. He couldn't help but pull out the sword from his waist with a "crack" sound.
"who?!"
The men in black didn't expect that there would be someone above the eaves, and they were all stunned for a moment.
But soon they reacted, revealing their weapons wrapped in black cloth, and all started to kill Gongwei and Wang Qi.
Fortunately, both Gongwei and Wang Qi learned some martial arts in order to protect themselves when they were young. Gongwei and Wang Qi quickly drew their swords to block the incoming enemy. Then the two of them were as light as swallows, running on the eaves,
When Gong Eryue saw this situation, she immediately drew her sword and shouted at Gongwei and Wang Qi:
"Quick! Come this way!"
Gongwei and Wang Qi couldn't help being surprised, but they couldn't think about it and had no choice but to run towards the opening.
And those people followed closely, blocking their way.
On the other side, because Gong Eryue made a sound, her position was naturally revealed. Those men in black couldn't let Gong Eryue escape no matter what.
As a result, several more people jumped into the window and stood together with Gong Eryue.
In the dark night, there was a sound of weapons clashing, which was particularly loud. However, since there is no heavy military guard here, even if there is such a movement, it will be of no avail.
The person who sneaked into the high platform this time was indeed a mediocre person. Gong Eryue only had a fight, and her wrists hurt from the shock, and her sword almost flew away from her hand.
The same was true for those who attacked Gongwei on the other side. Gongwei gradually became weak, and Wang Qi's hair was scattered by his sword.
Gong Eryue resisted for a while, and when she saw Gongwei and Wang Qi outside the window in danger, she immediately jumped up, jumped out of the window, and fought off the besieging people.
However, soon the two men in black in the corridor came back and surrounded them again.
These men in black are the assassins sent by Gongshan Buxuan to sneak into the high platform. Being able to sneak in so quietly shows how skilled he is.
However, they did not expect that as soon as they came in, they would be directly smashed by Gongwei and Wang Qi.
Therefore, these people are fighting hard, trying to deal with the three people in front of them as soon as possible, maybe they can still take advantage of it!
However, facing the three people's back-to-back defense, the men in black couldn't handle them for a while.
There was another brawl, and Gongwei yelled:
"ah!"
It seems that his wrist was cut open by a sword, and blood flowed out for a while. Wang Qi saw this and hurriedly stepped forward to help him, but was hit in the shoulder with another knife.
Gong Eryue hurriedly blocked and separated the sword, but there was a chill behind her. The cold air was overwhelming. She hurriedly raised her chest and waved the sword in her hand. She barely avoided it, but was also cut open.
The three of them were all injured to varying degrees, but the men in black did not relax their offensive at all, and their weapons were directed at them one after another.
Seeing that the three of them were about to die on the spot, the movement here was finally discovered by the sergeant patrolling the surrounding area.
When Gongwei saw this, he immediately shouted:
"Assassin! There is an assassin!"
The soldiers finally heard the noise and saw a group of men in black surrounding Gongwei and the other three, and they immediately fired arrows one after another.
At this moment, those who could only turn their backs to block the incoming arrows, while Gong Eryue and the others took the opportunity to escape from the window into the corridor.
As for those men in black, several of them were hit by arrows and fell from the eaves.
So the guards at the lower level heard the movement, and they came to help with torches.
Seeing that their whereabouts were exposed and knowing that they were outmatched, the remaining men in black wanted to escape by climbing over walls and walls, but how could they avoid the crossbows?
For a while, they were all hit by arrows, either dead or injured.
At this time, Confucius and Li Ran also heard the commotion and rushed over. Confucius was dressed in civilian clothes, but he was holding a big sword in his hand, which was quite majestic.
Li Ran found Gong Eryue first and saw that both Gong Eryue and Gongwei were injured.
As for Wang Qi, because her hair was pulled down, Li Ran could tell her identity at a glance.
Although they didn't understand why, they didn't have time to ask any more questions in this situation, and hurriedly took them to Liguang's residence.
Liguang was woken up and found that Er Niang was injured, so she couldn't help shouting "Er Niang". Then she hurried to her side, but Gong Eryue smiled at Liguang and said:
"I'm fine, Guang'er, don't worry!"
Gong Eryue endured the pain in her back, helped Wang Qi bandage the wound, and put the bandage back on for her.
