Chapter 185
Li Mingji's eyes turned cold, he put down the jewelry that Shu Yao stuffed for her, touched her face, and said in a low voice, "Wait for me here."

"Jiaojiao, I won't let anything happen to you."

The serious tone made Shu Yao stunned, and her body could not help but take a few steps back, sitting on the bed, the Persian cat meowed non-stop around her feet, and the hair all over her body exploded.

Li Mingji closed the door and left.

How can he resist those rebels alone?Their strength is unfathomable, at least in the dream they successfully broke into the palace, and Li Mingji...

The sound outside gradually stopped.

It was eerily silent.

Those people are gone?What about Li Mingji?

Shu Yao sat for a while, but still couldn't calm down, so she simply got up and pushed open the door.

After walking a certain distance, it seems that the sound of weapons clashing can be heard, but it is not obvious.There was no quarrel, no screams, but the smell of blood was so strong.

Shu Yao's face turned pale, whose blood was such a strong smell of blood?

She quickened her pace, ran out of the room, and came to the courtyard in front of the house, where she saw Chunrui and Songzhen standing under the eaves, their faces dull.

There was blood everywhere.

Li Mingji stood in a pool of blood, holding a long knife in one hand.

The rest of the people retreated in unison.

Isn't this the young master of their gang?
It's not that coming to Princess Huaxi's mansion is just for show... However, the Lord has ordered that it would be great if an "accident" can be made to cause Princess Huaxi to have an accident.

There is a young master who cooperates inside and outside, how much effort can a little lady spend?
But why did their young master raise the butcher's knife against them?

The commander was the first to react, and saw Shu Yao walking out of the room at a glance. Suddenly, he gathered strength under his feet, stepped on the beam, and rushed towards Shu Yao with a knife in his hand.And Li Mingji was faster than him, he embraced Shu Yao with one hand, and raised the long knife in his hand——

The head landed at his feet, making a "grunt" sound.

Li Mingji clasped Shu Yao tightly into his arms, covering her sight.He held the knife with one hand, and blood seeped from the handle, while the other hand holding Shu Yao was slender, clean and spotless.

The voice is as calm as a frozen lake in winter: "Who else wants to die?"

No one could answer him.

Their leader, the person who led the troops to break into the princess's mansion, was beheaded by Li Mingji, and the person who caused all this, holding the leader's knife in one hand, spoke to them casually, with a normal tone like Cut a dish, a piece of meat.

Before taking over, most of the people they brought had died.Several people exchanged glances, and attacked Li Mingji with all their might.

Until he died, he only touched the corner of Li Mingji's clothes.

The princess mansion is even quieter.

The smell of blood became stronger and stronger, Shu Yao huddled in Li Mingji's arms, and finally realized that it was quiet outside, not because they didn't make trouble, but because the troublemakers were all dead.

She died at the hands of the guards who grew up under her own eyes and were so weak that they were almost bleeding from Xie Yanzhou's palm.

Oh, it should be fiance now.

Her expression looked a little dazed.

Now she has completely lost the appearance of a royal princess, her hair is messy, a coat is casually draped over her body, and the corners of her clothes are still stained with splashed blood.

Is this person in front of her still her Li Mingji?

With a "bang", Li Mingji dropped the knife.His palm was stained red with blood. It was a wound accidentally cut by a knife, and it was bleeding continuously.He frowned, wiped his clothes, and found that it was not clean, so he hid his hand behind his back.

He didn't expect Shu Yao to run out.

The panic caused by the exposure of the true face is even far better than the life threat posed by this group of people before.Strategizing like him, but at this moment he lost the ability to communicate with others, and slowly let go of his other hand, and took a few steps back to keep a distance from her, like a beast retreating out of a safe area and silently licking its wounds.

But covering up and retreating is by no means giving up hunting, it is just a disguise to let the prey relax its vigilance, and this place is still restricted by him.

"I'm sorry, princess," Li Mingji said softly, "I made myself dirty."

He should kill these people, take a bath and change clothes, and see her clean.

But now, there was an unpleasant smell of blood all over his body, and even he himself felt sick.

Li Mingji was often injured and had long been numb to pain, but he hated the smell of blood on his body.Every time you finish killing someone, you have to bathe quietly until the smell of blood is completely gone.

It seemed that only in this way could he put on human skin and conceal the fact that he was a beast.

The passage of time became extremely slow at this moment, and Li Mingji's patience was exhausted. He wanted to tear up the human leather coat irritably, but when he closed his eyes, it was the scene of Shu Yao dying in his arms. He didn't even dare to come forward and hug her.

No.

You can't force her like in the previous life, you can't tie her into the golden house, you can't scare her...

Shu Yao seemed to have finally regained her senses.

She blinked, then suddenly took a few steps forward, hugging Li Mingji tightly.

"It's ok."

Her voice was muffled, "Now you are my savior."

Although the guards are a bit scary when they become stronger——

But it doesn't matter, he is still her Li Mingji.

……

The secret passage is long and has no end.

It has been 20 years, but the environment here still makes Xiao Sui feel familiar, as if he closed his eyes, he returned to that fiery night, he ran into the dark passage enduring the burning pain, waiting for death in despair.

Xiao Sui told himself that if he escaped safely, then the heavens had eyes and couldn't bear to take his life away.He will definitely recharge his batteries, raise his troops again, and regain the country of Daliang.

20 years are fleeting.

He survived and is doing well.

Yong Dynasty, Wei Pei.

From the Wei family, let's go here.

When he saw the faint light ahead, Xiao Sui couldn't wait to run up the steps.

He had witnessed the excavation of the secret passage and held a map of the secret passage in his hand. No one is more familiar with this place than him.Through this secret passage, you can go directly to Funing Palace, the residence of Emperor Yong.

During the long night, Funing Palace also seemed particularly quiet.One or two servants stood and dozed off, and walked through several corridors, but there was not even a night watchman.

Even though Xiao Sui's people had walked as lightly as possible, in the quieter Funing Palace, even the rustling of clothes became clearly audible.

Soon, they arrived at the room where Emperor Yong slept.

Still unattended.

The emperors of different dynasties had different preferences. Some were extravagant and had to be accompanied by more than a hundred palace officials when they went in and out.

Xiao Sui raised his hand, signaling the people around him to back up, while he drew out the dagger at his waist, and stabbed at the dragon bed through the gauze curtain!

The short sword passed through the cotton wool and hit the jade pillow.

The bed was empty.

"It's been tricked—" Xiao Sui clenched his teeth, turned his head and said, "Retreat immediately!"
