"Are you really not understanding, or are you just pretending to be confused?" Xiao Jian shouted.
Wei Ji was stunned by Xiao Jian's drink. Who is holding the dagger now?
Wei Ji shook her head and said, "What do you mean? You dare to speak to this princess like this and you don't want to live anymore?"
"Kill if you want. No need to say more. Don't say "kill or not kill" all at once. I'm tired of hearing it." Xiao Jian straightened his neck instead, and the tip of the knife immediately penetrated the skin, and blood dripped down the dagger. on the ground.
Seeing Xiao Jian's desperate posture, Wei Ji felt soft-hearted and simply took the dagger back, but kept the dagger half a meter away from Xiao Jian so that she could react at any time to assassinate him.
Xiao Jian nodded with satisfaction when he saw Wei Ji's reaction of taking back the dagger, and continued, "You are also a princess of a country, and you can't understand such a simple question? Your father died not long ago, and he gave the title to your eldest brother. , your second brother intended to seize the throne, and then he became resentful after learning that your eldest brother was going to inherit the throne, so he arranged for an assassination, and your eldest brother chose to escape overnight to save his wife and children. "
"You are talking nonsense, how is this possible? What about my queen mother? My second brother said that my queen mother was kidnapped by my eldest brother. What do you say about this?" Wei Ji continued to ask, not believing Xiao Jian's words.
"Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid? Could you please use your brain? If your mother doesn't want to leave, who has the ability to take her away quietly?" Xiao Jian said helplessly.
With a "ding" sound, the dagger in Wei Ji's hand fell to the ground.
"Are all the rumors in the market true? Is it true that my second brother wants to kill my eldest brother for his own selfish desires? Just for the throne of Wei?" Wei Ji panicked and sat limply on the stool opposite Xiao Jian. superior.
Xiao Jian didn't speak anymore. She was waiting for Wei Ji to wake up. It turned out that she had heard all of this, but she never believed that his second brother would treat his eldest brother like this for the sake of the throne of the Wei Kingdom.
Just like this, time passed minute by minute. Wei Ji slowly came out of the confusion, her eyes became extremely bright, and suddenly she pulled Xiao Jian's sleeve and said, "Take me away! Take me away, leave." here!"
"Okay, my eldest princess of Wei, please use your brain and think about it, okay? Now that we are in this situation, it's hard for a bird to fly, let alone bringing someone as big as you with us!" Xiao Jian pinched. Khan said.
"What should I do? I don't want to stay here any longer. I want to leave this hellish place!" Wei Ji stamped her feet anxiously when she heard that Xiao Jian would not take her out of the city.
"The best way now is for you to still live here and pretend that nothing happened. We will find an opportunity to take you out when the time comes!"
"You can't even get out now, let alone pick me up in the future." Wei Ji shook her head.
"Give me some time to think about how to escape."
After a while, Xiao Jian slapped his forehead and shouted, "Yes!"
"What's there? What's there?" Wei Ji asked with a confused look on her face.
"I know how to get out!"
"Say it quickly, say it quickly!" Wei Ji said anxiously.
"After I take Brother Cat to hide in a while, you go outside the door and shout that there are assassins, and then tell them that you have wounded the assassins, and they have fled towards the palace of King Wei. In the end, two guards were left behind, and they were After they fall, we can just put on their clothes and sneak into the city defense team, and leave the rest to us." Xiao Jian finished the plan and looked at Wei Ji's reaction.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. Call the fool downstairs up quickly!" Wei Ji said.
Xiao Jian hurriedly went downstairs and dragged Brother Cat upstairs. The two of them hid in a wooden wardrobe on the second floor. At this time, Brother Cat seemed to have regained some of his consciousness. Xiao Jian told him the escape plan and then told him Don't make a sound.
At this time, Wei Ji had already walked downstairs and shouted, "There are assassins, there are assassins! Someone come quickly!"
As soon as the voice fell, about 20 of King Wei's personal guards came running from the darkness outside the princess building. Wei Ji's heart sank, "What a quick response. I'm afraid my second brother has begun to doubt me. I have already arranged for them to be here." Are you waiting?"
"Princess!" A guard leading the team ran forward and saluted.
"What are you doing for food? Didn't you see the assassin came in just now?" Princess Wei Ji shouted with her hands crossed.
"This is dereliction of duty, and you deserve death!" All of a sudden, the 20 guards fell to their knees.
"Everyone, get up. It's important to catch the assassins. These two assassins have been wounded by me. They are fleeing towards King Wei's palace. Leave two of them here while the others chase after them. This is a good meritorious service." Chance."
When the captain of the guard who led the team heard about the opportunity to make a meritorious service, his eyes instantly shone with light, and then he shouted to the left and right, "Leave two people to protect the princess, and the rest will follow me!"
Before he finished speaking, the captain had already led the remaining personnel and sped towards King Wei's palace.
"You two come in and close the door!" Wei Ji ordered the two guards and then turned around and entered the small building.
The two guards had just closed the door tightly after entering. Wei Ji raised her knife and dropped it. Two sword lights flashed past, and both of them fell to the ground.
"You can come down now!" Wei Ji said.
Just hearing the sound of "Tong Tong Tong", Xiao Jian and Brother Cat had arrived downstairs. Brother Cat took a breath when he saw the knife wounds on the necks of the two guards. Although there were daggers piercing the necks of the two guards, Because the dagger was inserted and pulled out very quickly, there was no trace of blood flowing out of the wound.
"What a quick move!" Xiao Jian said in surprise.
"Hmph! Do you think this princess's self-defense skills are something that ordinary people can withstand?" Wei Ji said proudly, "Stop talking nonsense and change your clothes quickly!"
Xiao Jian nodded and changed into the clothes of the two personal guards with Brother Cat.
"Princess, let's say goodbye. Please take care of yourself!" Xiao Jian cupped his fists and saluted.
"Well, you must remember to come see me!" Wei Ji asked.
After the two nodded, they turned around and left the small building, disappearing into the night.
Xiao Jian led Brother Cat in the direction he came from, looking for the marks he had made before. Finally, after passing through the maze-like harem road, he successfully arrived at the wall of the harem's royal garden.
"Brother Cat, this is it. What time is it now?" Xiao Jian asked.
"It's almost time to be ugly!" Brother Cat looked up at the moon in the sky and said.
"Okay, we don't have much time left, let's hurry up and set off to the meeting point!" After Xiao Jian finished speaking, he motioned to Brother Cat to see if there were any garrison soldiers guarding the walls of the palace.
Brother Cat stood up and jumped, looked around and said, "Safe!"
Then Xiao Jian jumped up and followed Brother Cat to the outside of the palace wall.
"Stop! Who is coming!" At this time, the fire was bright outside Gongqiang Street, and two teams of city defense soldiers rushed towards Xiao Jian and the others from the streets on the left and right.
