Chapter 275: incident

The prince's guards reacted at this moment.

"There are assassins! Protect Your Highness!"

The four rushed to stop in front of Ning Weiyuan, and at the same time pulled

out the sabers from their waists.

But after a flash of black light, the four guards broke in half.

The assassin did not stop, passing the beheaded, the black light in his hand

pierced like a sharp sword at Ning Weiyuan who was still in a state of

astonishment.

At this moment, a dazzling rainbow burst out of the prince's chest!

The black shadow evaded, and was sprayed straight by this brilliant

brilliance. Not only did the sneak attack fail, but people were shaken out.

The sudden change gave the guard an opportunity to remedy it.

The prince was blocked by a bunch of people, dozens of crossbows shot in the

direction of the shadow, the assassin had nowhere to hide, was shot down the

palace wall, and underneath, a group of guards who heard the sound had already

pulled out. The sword encircled the palace wall.

Before and after this incident, there was no more than ten breaths of time,

but people inside and outside the palace witnessed this scene with their own

eyes-His Royal Highness was assassinated on the Lantern Festival!

"Trouble." Dry brows frowned, "That guy is an alchemist from the Privy

Council."

"What?" Xia Fan gave Yuyi a surprised look.

"I remember the name Zhang Lai, who was just promoted this year." Yu Linglong

said in a puzzled way. "Neither is a core member nor a guardian level. Who

invited him to the Wandeng Banquet?"

"This is not important at all, what is important is... I am afraid that this

matter will be counted in the Privy Council." Bai Zhan sighed, "Sir, I hope

you can restrain yourself when the front guard comes to the door. Emotions."

"This matter clearly has nothing to do with us-and I don't think that guy has

the motivation to assassinate the prince!"

"But others don't think so." The Yunshang layman glanced at the direction of

the palace wall. At this moment, more and more armored guards appeared in the

square. Although the surrounding noise remained high, the crowd showed no

signs of movement. It means that the entrance and exit of the palace have been

blocked, and all the banquet guests are trapped in this place. "The next step

must be investigation and cross-examination, and maybe there will be solitary

confinement-I have to say, we are calculated."

"What should I do next?" Yu Linglong asked.

"Boy, you go first." He grabbed the table with both hands.

"Me?" Xia Fan pointed to himself.

"Yes, although I don't know who planned the attack, it is clearly directed at

the Privy Council. You don't need to get involved."

"The prime minister of Jinxia Privy Council... won't they be remembered by

them?"

"Ha, as long as you don't tell me, who knows you are from Jinxia." Gan

laughed.

Feinian seemed to see Xia Fan’s doubts, “When we invited you, we didn’t

register your exact identity with the Ministry of Rites. In their eyes, you

were just one of many guests of the Privy Council. By the way, the identity we

provided It is also a forgery. You should be a family businessman from Xu Guo.

This in itself is a kind of protection for the guests. I didn't expect it

would come in handy on the Lantern Festival."

"As long as you don't take the initiative to reveal your identity, they won't

embarrass you." Gan raised the table and slammed it to the ground. The dishes

containing the dishes were suddenly broken. This action caused the panic

surrounding crowd to explode, scrambling to flee around. "Let's go, see you

tomorrow."

Xia Fan nodded and turned around to join the crowd.

In the periphery of the field of vision, there are already several teams of

people coming towards this side.

...

"You are Xia Buping, right?"

The door was pushed open, and a man in brocade walked into the room and placed

a list in front of him.

Xia Fan thought for a while before realizing that the name refers to himself,

"Yes, it's me."

It has been almost eleven or two hours since separation from members of the

Privy Council. All the banqueters were arranged to live in a side hall next to

the palace-there are many small separate rooms, probably used for the servants

in the palace. Therefore, when everyone was invited inside, the Ministry of

Etiquette also sent several officials to coordinate the matter, for fear of

conflicts between the invited guests and the guards.

"Sorry, what happened last night frightened you." The other party said in a

very polite manner, "We have verified that you have no suspicion. With the

guarantee of the Xu State Caravan, you only need to press a fingerprint on it,

that is You can leave here first."

"How is the situation outside now? Has the assassin matter been resolved?" Xia

Fan asked pretending to be concerned.

"It's not that easy." He sighed, "An assassin is a small one. The organization

behind the assassins, or their conspiracy, is the big thing. As a member of

the Xu country, you should not inquire about this matter. In addition, Shang

Yuancheng has been from yesterday Since the city has been closed, you can

purchase freely in the city, but please do not change your temporary residence

address. In case of any circumstances, Honghe Temple may contact you."

When Xia Fan walked out of the palace compound from the side door, a carriage

was already waiting by the street.

He climbed into the carriage calmly, letting the coachman take him on the road

slowly.

About a quarter of an hour later, the car paused for a few seconds, and a

familiar figure climbed into the car.

It is the messenger of the Privy Council, Xinwu.

"Master Xia, are you okay?"

"It's okay, you send me back to Wanjing Tower first." Xia Fan showed a little

anxiety at this time. Prince Qiguo was stabbed when he was setting off the

lamp. The news must have spread throughout the city. He didn't return all

night because of the martial law, I'm afraid Li and the others are guessing

about their situation. Compared to the Privy Council, which didn't want to

confront the royal family, the inn didn't recognize who the prince was. If Li

and Luo couldn't help but act gently, the situation would be irreversible.

"Master Xia, please rest assured, I have sent someone to notify your

companions, and they should not be too worried."

"……hope so."

The carriage galloped all the way and drove into the front courtyard of

Wanjing Tower after a quarter of an hour.

As soon as Xia Fan got out of the carriage, he saw a figure rushing towards

him and hugged him in public!

The skillful gesture and smell have revealed the identity of the comer.

Xia Fan had to pull out a hand ~www.mtlnovel.com~ to hold down the slanted hat

for Li, so as not to expose her ears to her carelessness.

Before he could speak, Li released him again, grasping his cheeks with both

hands and looking around, as if to confirm that he was not lacking in balance.

Luo Qing, Fang Xiandao and others also followed.

"I've said that he won't have any major events, and divination has already

proved this."

"Master, don't you say you can't account for anything?"

"The source of the unfathomable proof is still not changed. If he doesn't

exist, my alchemy will be impeccable."

"If someone wants to beat you because of this, Qianzhi won't help Young

Master."

Xia Fan glanced at the crowd, and there was a faint warm current surging in

his heart. A thousand words may be correct, he is a strange species in this

world, maybe no one will really understand him in the end, but even so, this

does not prevent them from caring about him.

"Let's go in and talk." Xia Fan nodded.
