Chapter 163

Under the moonlight, a dozen people suddenly jumped up like shooting stars in the originally silent rice field, and surrounded him and Tong Qiguan with lightning speed!
Before they had any more reactions, the bow in his hand had been pulled away again! ...

The arrow sounded in the moonlight, Tong Qi Guan Su blew his whistle in a panic, and immediately followed Guan Su back and forth to protect Huo Rong.

Ten or so bows and arrows came from different directions, how could it be possible to block them with only three pairs of arms? !

Huo Rong took a wrong step to separate the triangle from the two of them, turning the defense into an offense, and the only sound left in the quiet rice field was the clash of swords and swords.

Arrows are much more sinister than swords, and the three of them can only parry!
Huo Rong's heart trembled, seeing the shadow guard who rushed up behind him, he jumped out of the encirclement with his hands and feet wide open.

Guan Su then followed to the edge of the field, wiped the sweat off his face and looked ahead: "What is the origin?!"

"It's not an ordinary person!" Tong Qi, who is usually steady, couldn't help but sulk at the tough group of people at this moment.

The man in black was originally coming in a menacing manner, and he seemed to be determined to win, but when he saw a large number of shadow guards following him, he was suddenly stunned for a short time.But soon they reacted and set off an even more intense fight!

There were screams and the smell of blood in the air, and the moonlight still shone faintly on the ground, but the previous comfort and joy were no longer there.

Huo Rong stared at this scene closely, and suddenly said: "Catch someone alive! Don't let the other one go!"

After the shadow guards appeared, the winner was actually decided. Tong Qi spotted a man with an arm injury coming back, tore off the face scarf, and kicked him down to the ground.

Huo Rong looked down at him: "Who sent you here?"

The assassin looked up at him, and suddenly grinned strangely, and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth!
Tong Qi was startled and went to pinch his chin, but he was already limp and paralyzed on the ground!

"Dead!" Guan quickly stood up.

The expressions of the three people present were a bit dignified, Huo Rong stared at the two parties who were still fighting, suddenly jumped up, swooped down like a falcon and caught a man in black in his hand.

Before the other party could react, he grabbed his neck with his right hand, and tore off his shirt with the other hand to see his back!

Under the moonlight, under the man's shoulder blades, a large round dark trace of copper coins suddenly appeared!

"You have a tattoo of a palace guard! Did Yang Ji send you here?!"

The man in black was already stunned by the sudden restraint, and he opened his eyes again when he heard this.

Huo Rong looked at him for a while, and then he heard a click, and the man in black spurted a stream of blood from his throat, and fell to the ground.

"It's from the East Palace?!" Tong Qi came up immediately.

Huo Rong looked ahead and didn't answer, his deep eyes were like a deep pool under the shadow of the moon.

After a while, he said: "Shoot everyone! You two take a few people to search within half a mile to see if there are any accomplices! As long as there are people, no matter who they are, they will all be killed!"

Tong Qi quickly said that she was leaving.

Huo Rong straddled his sword and stepped forward, standing by the side of the road and looking at the fighting arena, the shadow guards trained by the royal family are not free, there are twelve people on the other side, and four pairs have been killed by now.

There were two more who were fighting in the corner and waiting for an opportunity to escape, but while he was counting the number, these two had also been knocked down.

"Bury them all, clean up the scene!"

He looked at a corpse that fell in front of him, and ordered coldly.

The shadow guards all moved silently and neatly, like real shadows.

But if they were shadows, the corpses looked weird.

When the moon was in the sky, Tong Qi came back quickly: "There are rice fields in the five li radius, and there are no suspicious people around."

Huo Rong rolled up his whip in his hand: "It's Yang Ji's man. But why did Yang Ji attack me suddenly?"

"Could it be that the emperor leaked the news?" Guan Su expressed his doubts.

Huo Rong said slowly: "If the news leaked out, they should know that there are shadow guards by my side. But they were only shocked when they saw the shadow guards, so it can be seen that they didn't take precautions at all. It doesn't look like a secret leak."

Silence fell in front of him.

Tong Qi raised her head: "If it's not for the identity of the master, then it can only be targeted by other things. But the master has never had any interaction with Yang Ji, so how could he be alarmed that the prince personally sent guards to assassinate him? "

Huo Rong looked at the shadow guards who were burying their bodies in the distance, his eyes became colder and colder.

……

Changying found out that Huo Rong was not there at night, so she decided to take this opportunity to bring the horse back.

When she was 12 years old, she had a pony of her own, a red sweat horse named Chixia, who followed her until she left the Ling family.

Of course she couldn't take it away when she left the Ling family. Ling Yuan said that if she brought her horse, it could only be Chixia.

As soon as they arrived at the door of Huo's house, several horses galloped behind them like a strong wind, almost knocking her directly into the house under the door!

Changying stepped back and looked at the horseman.

Immediately, people were also looking at her, their faces were solemn and cold, and there was an uncontrollable murderous look in their eyes.

He just sat on the horse like this, exuding a ruthless and murderous aura all over his body, only a little bit of astonishment in his eyes when he looked over, which was caught in the expression that had not had time to adjust, which subtracted two points of his power.

This was Huo Rong who Changying had never seen before, and she also forgot to speak for a while.

Huo Rong didn't expect her to come over at night, Shen Sidun accepted the horse: "Why are you here?"

There was still an unstoppable coldness on the man, Changying looked at him, there were patches of dark marks on the sapphire blue brocade robe, and the smell of blood came to his nostrils.

"Where did you get hurt?" she asked.

Huo Rong glanced at him and said, "Let's talk in the room."

He turned around and handed the whip to the guard, stepped through the door and went straight into the study.

Chang Ying walked in, looked at him pouring tea with his back to the door, and frowned.

Huo Rong raised his glass and sipped lightly, watching the white knuckles on the rim of the cup return to normal, then turned around and said casually: "Just now I met a group of rogues on the road, and you know that the world is not peaceful. Killed two people, no injuries, the blood is not mine."

Changying frowned even tighter.

Rogue?

"Where have you been?" she asked.

Huo Rong held on to the cup and walked under the curtain: "My father is here, I will go to the city to have a meal with him."

He put the cup on the table, his silhouette looked extraordinarily tall and straight under the candlelight.

Changying always felt that something was wrong, it's not that he had betrayed her badly before, with blood all over his body, ready-made tricks, he could easily reach out to fool her, yet he opened his mouth to clarify that he was not injured...

She didn't say a word.

Huo Rong turned his head and glanced at her, then raised his lips meanly: "My mother will come in a few days and propose marriage to you."

Changying's face fell down, and her little thoughts just now were interrupted.

Huo Rong walked over again, raised his hand to support the door frame behind her, and covered her whole body under his shadow: "Then let's make an engagement date, do you think it's okay?"

Changying glanced at him coldly, turned around and left.

When Huo Rong saw her walk out of the courtyard, Fang Lian stepped back and sat on the chair, grabbed the handkerchief and wiped his face.
