Reborn Totalitarian Queen

Chapter 545 Unexpected help, get out of trouble! (1)
This person is-

Backlight!Peng Ze's number one master, the No.1 Commander of Longtingwei!
Although he has always covered his face with a cold iron mask, that mask has also become his characteristic.

Jimo Xun's neck was bleeding profusely, and he fell on the couch.

With this person's skill, if he wanted to snatch Jimo Xun out of her dagger intact, it would be a breeze at all, and he shouldn't have suffered such a serious injury.

This person clearly did it on purpose, but——

Why is he?
At this moment, Song Chuxi's mind went back and forth many times.

Backlight saw that she was not on guard, so he squeezed her wrist even more tightly through the clothes.

That kind of touch was too vivid, Song Chuxi's heart suddenly shook violently, and he suddenly realized something.

She hastily raised her head to look at the man's face, but under the whole mask, she couldn't see his face, nor any expression on his face.

The man grabbed her wrist, turned and ran towards the door.

At this time, the guards guarding outside the courtyard had heard the movement and rushed in, shouting, "Assassin! There are assassins! Come and escort me!"

The two kicked open the door, and when they saw the mask with a cold light on the man's face, they were both taken aback.

The man didn't even give them a chance to speak. He flipped his arms over, and slashed a murderous cold glow from his palms, cutting off the necks of the two of them with his sword.

Then, he mentioned Song Chuxi, and after rushing out the door, he turned over from the courtyard wall on the right.

Other guards poured in from outside the yard, unable to catch his figure at all. First, they were startled when they saw the corpses of the two guards lying outside the house, and then rushed into the house, and saw that Jimo Xun had no trace of him. Consciously fell in a pool of blood, not knowing whether to live or die.

A group of people were so frightened that they didn't even bother to pursue the murderer, so they hurried in to check Jimo Xun's injuries.

In the courtyard, shouts and yells continued one after another.

"His Royal Highness was assassinated, go and invite the doctor."

"Who has golden sore medicine, give me golden sore medicine!"

"Deaf? Come on, doctor—"

There was a lot of noise in the yard.

Here, the backlight mentioned Song Chuxi, and with a few ups and downs, he easily climbed out of the rightmost courtyard wall of the house.

As soon as Song Chuxi's feet fell to the ground, the man ignored her and turned to leave.

Song Chuxi had been prepared for a long time, and rushed over decisively, stopped him, stared at his face, and asked in a deep voice, "Why help me?"

Although Jimo Xun's injury would not have killed him if rescued in time, but the purpose of his breaking in just now was definitely not to rescue Jimo Xun, Song Chuxi was very sure of this.

Her tone was firm, she didn't ask who he was, but why he did such a thing.

Under her staring gaze, the man couldn't see his face or understand his expression.

Song Chuxi went further and said: "Three days ago, in the dark alley in the west of the city, you deliberately released water and did not embarrass me. If I expected it correctly, on the day of my aunt's birthday years ago, you shot in the imperial garden. You were the one who intercepted and killed those guards and the maidservant, right? You have rescued me overtly and covertly several times, these can’t be just a coincidence, you—why do you do this?”

The two recent incidents are clear at a glance.

However, looking back at the bloody incident in the palace on the day of the Empress Dowager Song’s birthday banquet——

Although Duanmu Qi took the initiative to arrange the follow-up of that incident, he was not the one who killed those people in time.On that day, when Peng Ze's mission came to Beijing, when Jimo Xun brought a few cronies into the palace to meet the emperor for the first time, Backlight and others were in the palace at that time.

With his skill, it was a breeze to kill those people quietly.

The reason why Song Chuxi didn't doubt him before was because he had no motive for doing that thing, but now that his intention to help her is so obvious, she is sure that he did that thing.

Because among the people in the palace that day, there were not many people who were capable of doing that, and there were really no extra candidates for investigation.

Song Chuxi's questioning was loud and aggressive.

Backlight didn't move.

Song Chuxi frowned, looking at him expectantly.Regarding the identity of this person, she already had a faint guess in her heart, but it just needs to be confirmed.

Facing her questioning, Backlight didn't deny it, nor did he explain anything, he just said in his unique deep and hoarse voice: "Let's go."

After saying that, as soon as his figure floated, he plunged into the vast snowy night and disappeared without a trace.

On the carriage, Yan Yue hugged Yin Jie tightly. From the beginning, she tried her best to ignore the roaring sound of the pursuers, but then she really shook off those noises bit by bit.

That process was slow and thrilling, but her heartbeat was so cold and heavy that it was almost nothingness.

She didn't think, she kept silent, she just hugged Yin Jie tightly, but the more she felt the body temperature of the child, the colder her heart felt.

In her consciousness, she lost the ability to distinguish right from wrong in any matter.

She knew that Song Chuxi's helplessness in telling her the truth was to hope that she could put aside the past and cheer up, but for her——

It is too difficult.

No one can understand what kind of sacrifices she has made and how much pain she has endured in order to protect this child all these years. She has always told herself that it is her responsibility to protect this child, and it is she who can do it for her. The only thing my sister does, no matter how difficult, no matter how painful, no matter how much she loathes and hates herself like this——

She can't back down, and she can't give up.

As long as the child is safe, everything she has done is worth it.

But within one day, all those self-deceiving reasons that supported her along the way finally couldn't be used anymore.

It took her four years to abandon everything that her sister had worked so hard to win for her back then, and she used all means to stain her hands with blood, making herself completely unrecognizable.Not only did she let down everything her sister gave her at the risk of her life, but she also cruelly killed the person she loved.

What the hell is she doing?What the hell did she do?
Asking herself, she couldn't find any reason to defend herself, and even, suddenly, she couldn't find the meaning of continuing to exist.

Yin Jie, is all the reasons for her self-deception in the past, she knew that she should listen to Song Chuxi, she knew that she should not meddle in other people's business anymore, but——
