An extremely powerful palm wind struck, and the sense of oppression made the palace maid tremble with fear. It was so strong!
Can't escape! what to do!
Just when the palace maid opened her eyes wide in horror, thinking that she was certain to die, another black shadow suddenly jumped out from the side and blocked her directly in front of her.
"Saint, let's go quickly..."
The person who came here only had time to utter a few words, and was hit the next moment and flew backwards. He flew more than ten meters before landing, and saw that he was lifeless.
He was killed on the spot!
The palace maid known as the Saint immediately gritted her teeth and did not dare to stay any longer. She turned around and ran out, no longer caring about assassinating the emperor.
This assassination was a complete failure!
Nothing happened to the emperor, he just smelled some anesthetic!
"Where to run!" Wu Zechen shouted angrily.
It was him who killed someone with that palm just now!
He didn't even look at that person, but he was just an assassin pretending to be a guard. Since he sacrificed his life to protect this palace maid, it means that this palace maid's status among assassins must be high!
Without stopping, Wu Zechen immediately chased the palace maid, but he soon ran into trouble.
The assassins who were originally fighting with the guards abandoned their opponents and gathered in the direction of the palace maid's retreat. Apparently they knew that the matter had failed and were preparing to escape.
Seeing that Wu Zechen was getting closer and closer to the palace maid, many assassins rushed forward and risked their lives to block Wu Zechen's footsteps so that the palace maid could escape.
Now Wu Zechen knew that the identity of the palace maid was not simple, but he was slowed down by the continuous assassins, and his speed finally slowed down.
Although each of these assassins was his opponent, Jean's desperate tactics still managed to hold him back.
As for the surrounding guards, most of them went to protect the emperor to prevent further accidents, and the remaining few were unable to break through the interception of these assassins.
Wu Zechen frowned, and while killing the assassin in front of him, he headed in the direction where the palace maid escaped, but he still kept getting farther and farther away from her, and finally watched the other party disappear into the night.
He was so angry that he let people run away like that! This happens once and twice! When the emperor travels, how are the guard forces arranged? !
Although he and General Xi have already deployed troops around the hunting ground, the Royal Hunting Ground is such a large area that it is definitely not possible to stop all the opponents, and some of them will definitely run away.
Especially this palace maid!
With his hearing, he could clearly hear what the assassin was calling "Saint" just now!
Saintess of Southern Xinjiang!
Unexpectedly, the Saintess of Southern Xinjiang actually took action herself!
No wonder those assassins risked their lives to protect her from leaving. The status of the Saint of Southern Xinjiang in the Holy Cult of Southern Xinjiang is very high. It is not an exaggeration to say that she is second only to the leader!
Since it was the Saintess of Southern Xinjiang who took action personally...
Could it be? !
Wu Zechen was shocked. It was Wu Fengyan who had blocked the emperor's blow just now!
At the same time, as the assassins retreated, the situation at the banquet became more or less stable. The courtiers and their families no longer ran around, but they were all frightened and huddled in the corner and did not dare to move.
Old General Xi held a sword, surrounded by seven or eight corpses of assassins. He looked majestic and did not show any panic at all, which somewhat stabilized the morale of the army. Some of the guards moved in an orderly manner under his command.
As early as just now, when he noticed that the assassins were retreating, he had already quietly sent a message to the Xi family's secret guards, notifying the surrounding troops from the Xi family and Prince An's Mansion to start intercepting them.
As for the troops and guards stationed around the royal hunting ground, General Xi and Wu Zechen have the same view, don't count on it!
I just did a rough calculation and found that we had forty or fifty assassins!
For letting so many people sneak in from the other side, calling him a piece of trash is not an exaggeration!
So instead of counting on these unreliable troops, it is better to count on your own people!
At this moment, in addition to General Xi, who was guarding the emperor, Xi Zhenkun and Xi Menghan from the Xi family were also guarding here. There were also several corpses of assassins around them. They had obviously participated in the killing just now.
At this moment, there were several other people surrounding the emperor. In addition to the commander of the guards, they were Mu Jinyu and Xia Luotong.
Xia Luotong glared at the commander of the guards with murderous eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Are you sure you want to stop us? If something happens to the Emperor and King Qi, can you afford it?!"
The commander of the guards looked ugly and said with a sullen face: "Princess An, the assassination has just come out, and the general did not allow you to get close for the sake of the emperor's safety."
After such a big thing happened, the guard commander knew that he would be in bad luck. If something happened again, he could commit suicide directly, and the emperor would not spare him!
It was precisely because he was worried that something would happen again that the guard commander, who was surrounded by grass and trees, did not dare to let anyone get close to him.
"You are so worried about the emperor's safety, but you are just doing it for your official position!" Xia Luotong said mercilessly.
Then, regardless of the commander's increasingly ugly face, he continued to shout in a deep voice: "If it was for the safety of the emperor, why did you stop me from waiting? This is the young master of Baihua Valley, don't you know?"
"If you don't let him check the situation with the Emperor, if something really happens to the Emperor, then you will be blamed even if you die!"
The commander of the guards naturally knew that the person next to Xia Luotong was the famous Young Master of Baihua Valley, but after all, Baihua Valley did not belong to the power of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At this moment, he was afraid that something would go wrong again, so he just gritted his teeth and said: "We have an imperial doctor here! Don’t bother you two to worry about it!”
Xia Luotong was extremely angry. She didn't really care what happened to the emperor. He wouldn't be dead anyway, at most he would be disabled, but Wu Fengyan was still lying on the ground unable to move!
What she really cares about is Wu Fengyan, and she doesn't know what Wu Fengyan's situation is now and why he has been unable to afford it.
After discovering that Wu Fengyan used his own body to block the emperor's attack, Xia Luotong's heart jumped to his throat, and his eyes were full of worry.
After the palace maid fled and Wu Zechen chased after her, Xia Luotong directly picked up Mu Jinyu and rushed to the emperor's vicinity, but she didn't expect to be stopped by the commander of the guards!
Xia Luotong was extremely annoyed. If the imperial doctor really came, there was no need to tell her, but now she didn't know where the imperial doctor had gone. There was no movement for a long time, so how could she not be anxious.
Just when she was wondering whether she should use some means to let the guard lead the retreat, an angry shout came.
"roll!"
The next moment, the guard commander's expression suddenly changed, and he turned back and raised his hand to block.
"boom!"
There was a sound of physical collision. Although the guard commander blocked the attack, the tyrannical force still made him take several steps back before he could stabilize his body.
"Prince An! Are you going to rebel!?"
