After being dressed as Wu Zetian's daughter, she was favored by the group

Chapter 75 Despair
For several days, the team traveled starry night and night, and finally arrived in Chang'an!
Cui Daizhao received the letter from Empress Wu and returned to the palace one day in advance to assist Empress Wu in holding a welcoming ceremony for Li Zhi.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner!
At noon, the team arrived at the bank of the Jing River, and the commander-in-chief of the Forbidden Army dispatched a large number of troops to mobilize ships along the coast to prepare to cross the river.

Li Lingyue got down from the shaft of the car and saw that there were many people waiting for the ferry on the beach on both sides of the Jing River. More than a dozen boatmen rowed fishing boats or rafts back and forth in the river with long punt poles and started ferrying. business.

"Strange! Didn't I remember that there was a pontoon here when I came here?"

Li Lingyue muttered something, Gong'er beside her saw this, and hurriedly explained:
"The princess is right. There was indeed a pontoon bridge here before. When the slaves escorted the money, the pontoon bridge was already destroyed!"

"Oh?" Li Lingyue became more vigilant when she heard this, "Do you know how it was destroyed?"

"The slaves have asked. Those boatmen said that a local rich man went to the upper reaches of the Jing River to cut wood. They tied the wood together with hemp ropes and transported it by water. Because there were too many wood bundles and the current was fast, it was not long before they reached the pontoon bridge. Before it was time to unload the cargo, the wood broke through the iron cables of the bridge body, and the pontoon bridge was destroyed!"

"Have you ever asked which rich man it is? Is the government arresting him for questioning?" Li Lingyue asked.

"This..." Gong'er said hesitantly: "The servant was in a hurry to cross the river, so I didn't ask carefully!"

Li Lingyue nodded and said nothing.

Indeed, according to the logic of normal people, they only care about how the bridge was destroyed and how they should cross the river. As for other things, they naturally don’t ask too much.

Li Lingyue looked at the boatmen on the river again, and didn't notice anything wrong for a moment, but she was still a little uneasy, so she asked Gong'er to call the commander of the imperial army and send someone to verify the identities of the boatmen.

After investigation by the imperial army, those boatmen were indeed fishermen who lived on both sides of the Jing River all year round. They came here to make money because the pontoon bridge was broken.

Could it be that I am too sensitive!
Li Lingyue shook her head with a grin. Since Cui Daizhao told her that someone would harm her, Li Lingyue has become cautious. Every time she goes out, she must bring a hundred guards with her.

Although she was about to return to Chang'an soon, the more she had to relax her vigilance, the more she dared not take it lightly.

There is no way, there are often such plots of robbery and murder in the dog-blood dramas of later generations, and she doesn't want to risk her life to try and make mistakes.

The imperial army acted vigorously, and soon requisitioned all the fishing boats and rafts nearby.

The Jing River itself is not wide, unlike the large cruise ships in Jiangnan water towns, the fishing boats mobilized can barely stand a few people, and the rafts can be tied together to carry goods and carriages.

Half an hour later, the large troops began to cross the river!
Uneasy, Li Lingyue ordered the water-savvy imperial guards to take over the job of the boatman, and she didn't feel relieved until everything was settled.

Half of the forbidden army crossed the river first, and then set up guard against the case on the river!
Li Zhi boarded the carriage, and the people and the cart went directly to the raft. Several forbidden soldiers were in charge of the poles. There were accompanying fishing boats around the raft. On the fishing boats were standing forbidden soldiers who knew water. If something happened, they would arrange rescue as soon as possible. .

There was no accident, the carriage reached the other side of the river smoothly, Li Zhi got out of the carriage, stood by the river beach and waved towards Li Lingyue.

Seeing that her Aye was safe and sound, Li Lingyue finally felt relieved, returned to the car with Gong'er, and started to cross the river.

Everything went so smoothly, four rafts were bundled together, carrying Li Lingyue's horse, and the car was sailing on the fast-flowing Jing River. Li Lingyue opened the window to observe the surrounding situation.

Except for the sound of "squeaky" water flow, the whole river is so calm.

When the raft reached the middle of the river, something happened...

There were several explosions of "bang bang bang", which was the sound of the rope breaking the raft.

The first imperial guard who discovered the situation immediately shouted loudly: "No! The raft is scattered! Save the princess!"

As soon as the sound fell, the soldiers on the surrounding fishing boats immediately jumped into the river!

Li Lingyue's heart sank: Sure enough, the plot of the dog-blood drama has come true!
As soon as the rope was broken, the horses screamed and sank into the river together with the shaft!
At this moment, Li Lingyue was very grateful that she could swim. She jumped out of the car window, stepped on the water, and floated on the surface of the water, successfully escaped.

"Princess……"

Gong'er's voice sounded behind her, and when Li Lingyue turned her head, it suddenly occurred to her that she was only focused on running for her life and left the little girl in the car.

The carriage sank rapidly, if not rescued in time, Gong'er would be trapped in the carriage until she drowned!
Li Lingyue quickly swam to the carriage and leaned half her body through the window!
"Quick! Give me your hand!"

Gong'er's face was pale, she was already overwhelmed with fright, she curled up in the corner and shivered, the river water poured into the carriage, it had already flooded her chin!

Without enough time to urge her, Li Lingyue grabbed a soft pillow floating on the water and threw it at Gong'er.

Gong'er woke up from the trance, blinked her eyes, tears welled up, and cried out in a crying voice: "Princess, go!"

"Shut up and give me your hand!"

Seeing that the little girl was still unmoved, Li Lingyue knew that she didn't want to hurt herself, so she was both moved and annoyed!

She stared at her feet, arched her body inward, grabbed Gong'er's skirt, and pulled her out vigorously.

As soon as the master and servant got out of the carriage, Li Lingyue let out a muffled snort, and a scorching pain came from his waist!

An assassin wearing a water jacket stabbed her waist with a short blade in his hand.

The assassin succeeds in one blow, draws the knife and stabs again!

Enduring the severe pain, Li Lingyue quickly leaned back, and then kicked out, hitting the assassin's chest, and the two of them separated slightly in the water.

Li Lingyue swept around, only to find that the river was already stained red with blood, and the soldiers who rescued her were fighting with a dozen assassins in water jackets!

Most of the unsuspecting imperial troops were killed or injured, and the assassins gradually gained the upper hand. The situation is extremely critical!
Li Lingyue, who had won a sliver of life, dragged Gong'er and swam desperately to the fishing boat!

But the next moment, she was desperate.

Gong'er, who can't swim, wrapped around her like an octopus, her body kept thrashing, pulling Li Lingyue to roll in the water completely unconsciously!

No matter how good Li Lingyue was, she couldn't stand such a toss, not to mention that there was an assassin waiting for an opportunity by her side.

Li Lingyue choked on several saliva in a row, and simply sank into the water, temporarily holding her breath!
The assassin saw the right moment and attacked again.

Li Lingyue hugged Duo'er and tried her best to dodge back, but the speed of the two of them could not compare with the assassin.

She could only watch helplessly as the dagger came towards her.

This time, the place where the tip of the knife pierced was her heart!

Is it...

Am I going to die here?

Once hope is shattered, the whole person loses the motivation to survive!

Li Lingyue's body softened, allowing Gong'er to drag her to the bottom of the river!

At the same time, the assassin had already arrived, the dagger in his hand pierced her clothes, and the tip of the knife sank into her flesh...
