Chapter 76 Assassin
King Duan looked at Jiang Wancheng who was still standing by the door. His tone instantly returned to calmness and ease: "Miss Jiang, everything today is just a misunderstanding."

"I'm just a businessman, how can I get any imperial power?"

"Don't listen to this old guy's nonsense. He just wants to scare you."

"That's all. Asking you to come here today is just asking for mercy from Lady Qiu's girl. Now that the matter is over, please come back."

King Duan waved his hand coldly, and Uncle De immediately stepped forward.

"Girl, please."

Jiang Wancheng wanted to leave a long time ago, so he immediately turned around and walked out the door.

When King Duan saw her turning around neatly, his eyes were squinted, full of light.

"Your Majesty, would you like..." Heiyi noticed his master's boredom and made a gesture of wiping his neck.

King Duan glared at him: "Do you think there are not enough troubles at the moment? Don't act rashly and don't alert the enemy."

Heiyi lowered his head: "Yes, my subordinates know."

In the corridor outside the door, Uncle De called to Jiang Wancheng and threw her a piece of broken silver of one or two weight.

"Our master left the embroidery village in a hurry when he heard that the girl's wages were not paid. Since you have worked in the embroidery village, you naturally deserve this."

Jiang Wancheng was very surprised when he received this unexpected salary.

Even though Uncle De looked arrogant and disgusted with her at the moment, she still bowed and said to him politely: "Thank you."

Uncle De stared at her doubtfully.

What a strange girl!

He was an old slave who knew etiquette, but why did he act so disgustingly rebellious in front of the young master?
After hesitating for a moment, Uncle De reluctantly took out an ingot of five taels of silver from his pocket.

"And this is the reward for the robe you made for my master before. You put it away. Now that you have received the reward, you should remember my master's kindness..."

Before Uncle De finished speaking, Jiang Wancheng reached out and took it.

Looking at this ingot of silver, the smile on her face instantly bloomed like a flower, and she couldn't hold it back.

This Hexuan dog is a dog, but in fact the price is quite generous.

She had stayed up for days and nights to finish the embroidery. Since there was a reward, why not?
Not only do you want it, but you also have to accept it happily and generously.

Ignoring the shocked look on Uncle De's face, Jiang Wancheng smiled politely and said: "Yes, you are always right. Thank you for the reward. Since you have nothing to do, how about leaving this little lady?"

"I hope in the future, the mountains are high and the roads are far away, and we will never see each other again!"

Jiang Wancheng cupped his hands, turned around and left calmly.

Uncle De was mumbling, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, the window at the end of the corridor suddenly shattered with a loud bang.

Then a masked black figure jumped in from the window, holding a long knife and killing everyone on sight!

"what--"

A passing waiter was unlucky enough to be killed by a knife in an instant.

Jiang Wancheng was sprayed with blood on his face.

And she was right behind the waiter. Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw this scene.

This sudden change made her stay in place, her mind went blank for a moment, and she actually forgot how to escape!

Just as the big knife was slashing at her, a strong force suddenly came from her side, grabbing her and quickly dodging it——

"Squeak-bang-"

Jiang Wancheng was dragged into the house, and the knife struck the door.

"what!!"

In the house, there was a man holding his sweet girl in his arms. The two were sitting at the table in disheveled clothes and making out. They were frightened by the sudden door and jumped up: "Who are you!? Get out of here -"

Before he finished speaking, a red knife stained with blood was thrust through the door.

The soft girl rolled her eyes, her body went limp and she fainted on the ground.

"Get out of the way!"

Orion roared, finally calling Jiang Wancheng's soul back.

With red eyes, Jiang Wancheng hurriedly ran to a position further away from the door, found a cover and squatted down.

But he stared at the door, fearing that something might happen to Orion.

Orion did not panic. He blocked the door with his foot as soon as he entered. When the knife penetrated, it was only an inch away from him.He grabbed the low cabinet next to him, blocked it behind the door, and quickly pushed the latch.

The assassin outside the door hacked at the door several times, but was still unable to break in. Just as he was about to rush in, he heard shouting from outside: "Killing that king is the official thing! Let's go -"

Jiang Wancheng was shocked when he heard those words: These madmen are actually assassins who have never appeared in the previous life!
In the previous life, Zhang Hexuan also carefully laid out the plans in Qingyang Town for many days, but for unknown reasons, these assassins suddenly disappeared.

Why did it suddenly appear again in this life?

There must have been some differences between the two lives!
There were violent footsteps outside the corridor, 'rumbling, dong dong dong', it seemed like a lot of people were coming.

Then there was the sound of swords clashing.

There was also the sudden sound of the knife piercing human flesh, and the screams, which could not be heard without stopping.

Orion slowly retreated and came to Jiang Wancheng's side.

Jiang Wancheng looked at him, his face full of nervousness.

Orion lowered his head and glanced at her. When he saw her appearance, he stretched out his arm and quickly wiped the wet blood from her face.

"Don't be afraid."

Orion's face was tense, but he still comforted her in a low voice.

Jiang Wancheng seemed to be no longer afraid. He hid behind Orion's generous and strong body and nodded slowly.

She thought her life was about to be lost again...

Sure enough, nothing good will happen if you get close to Zhang Hexuan!

Fortunately, fortunately, in this life, there is this Orion.

The sound of fighting outside made Jiang Wancheng tremble with fear.

She quickly looked at Lang Jun who was hiding behind the table. The man was trembling and acting similar to her.

Unexpectedly, before she could take a second look at what was happening to the girl on the ground, Orion actually covered her eyes.

"See no evil, let's go!"

He had no intention of participating in this chaos and dragged Jiang Wancheng to prepare to evacuate the place quickly.

Jiang Wancheng looked outside the door nervously and asked worriedly: "How can we get out now?"

Orion whispered: "If they are red-blooded, they won't be able to escape even if they hide in this house."

Jiang Wancheng instantly understood what Orion meant.

He means that if these people fail to kill King Duan, they will jump over the wall and kill indiscriminately?

This upper room has indeed become the most dangerous place.

These fanatics...

Jiang Wancheng didn't know for a moment whether he hoped that these assassins would succeed or fail.

Orion didn't intend to go through the main entrance. He dragged Jiang Wancheng to the back window, opened the window and looked down.

Jiang Wancheng speculated that the distance from the second floor down was at least four meters.

Orion didn't even blink. He put his arm around her shoulders and quickly climbed up the window lattice, then jumped down.

From such a high place, Orion landed smoothly after jumping.

With him taking the lead, Jiang Wancheng naturally didn't hurt his leg again.

Jiang Wancheng was surprised: I didn't expect him to have such skills! !

I thought that this hunter was better at hunting, but he seemed to have some martial arts skills...

This Orion is becoming more and more mysterious.

After landing, the street outside was also in chaos.

"Murder—"

"Run quickly, people are killing people in Qingyue Tower!!"

The common people were screaming and running around, and Orion pulled Jiang Wancheng and walked out along the wall.

Unexpectedly, when he turned a corner, a long sword suddenly appeared on his shoulder.
