Chapter 60: Assassinated
While contemplating, he suddenly felt that something was wrapped around his feet. Ye Yun fished it out and found a long and slender piece of cloth in his hand. He rubbed it with two fingers and found that the texture was very smooth, unlike anything ordinary people use.
Ye Yun put the lantern on the ground and held the cloth close to the light to examine it carefully. He found that the fabric had different cuts and had obviously been torn off. Looking at its color, it was pink with white, and it looked like something belonging to a woman.
Standing up again with the lantern in hand, Ye Yun turned around and walked to Fu Qimo, handed the cloth to him and said, "Look, these are scraps from Tong Ying's clothes."
Fu Qimo took the cloth, looked at it, nodded and affirmed: "The clothes she wore today are indeed pink."
Hearing this, Ye Yun said: "Then the matter is already very clear. After Tong Ying left Hanshan Temple, she met these two people in the back mountain. The two of them saw Tong Ying alone here and became lustful. Later, someone passed by and killed her.
We killed two people and rescued Tong Ying, but..."
"But what?" Fu Qimo grabbed Ye Yun's shoulders and looked at her solemnly.
"However," Ye Yun looked at Fu Qimo calmly and said word by word, "it is not certain whether Tong Ying was harmed."
One sentence sent Fu Qimo to the bottom. He took a few steps back, looked depressed, and muttered to himself: "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have said those words to her..."
Ye Yun glanced at Fu Qimo, who was trapped in the abyss of regret and couldn't extricate himself. Then he turned to the people behind him and said, "Let's go, everyone go back."
In an era when a woman's reputation is paramount, she cannot say biased words just because she is soft-hearted. It's a good thing that nothing happened to Tong Ying. If something unexpected happened, then even if Fu Qimo didn't do it, he would
He will eventually be condemned by his own conscience, and he will have to pass this test sooner or later, so it is better to leave him alone.
After looking at Fu Qimo for the last time, Ye Yun turned around and led the imperial guards back the same way. The remaining group of monks looked at each other, and finally followed him at the signal of the monk in charge.
No one knows how long Fu Qimo stayed in the back mountain that night. He was not even seen at the memorial ceremony for Queen Jingshu the next day.
On the third day, Ye Yun planned to set off and sent the soldiers around him to deliver the message. Before the soldiers could knock on the door, Fu Qimo opened the door first and came out.
He looked straight ahead and said expressionlessly: "Are you leaving?"
The soldiers were slightly startled, then cupped their hands and said, "Yes, the eldest princess has led everyone ahead. Please move forward, Mr. Fu."
Hearing this, Fu Qimo closed the door smoothly and walked forward without saying a word. Seeing this, the soldiers from the government hurriedly raised their heels.
Outside the temple gate, Ye Yun was saying goodbye to the abbot.
"Thank you abbot for taking care of me these days. I will leave now."
"Amitabha, the old monk sends the eldest princess off. May the eldest princess have a safe journey."
Ye Yun nodded slightly, then boarded the carriage and sat in the car. Ye Yun thought he would have to wait for a long time, and was about to take a book from the secret compartment to pass the time. Unexpectedly, the curtain of the car swung, and Fu Qi Mo came in from inside.
Glancing at Fu Qimo, whose lips were white and there was a faint layer of dark green under his eyes, Ye Yun silently looked away, opened the secret compartment, took out the book, turned to the page he had folded before, and read quietly.
We have to go through a downhill road on the way back to the city, so the car body is shaking more violently than when we came here.
The constant shaking made it impossible for Ye Yun to calm down and read a book, so she simply put the book on her lap and fell asleep against the car wall.
The carriage and horses were still moving forward at a steady speed. In the jungle, a sharp arrow pierced the branches and leaves and came straight towards the coachman. The coachman groaned and fell off the carriage.
At the same time, Ye Yun felt that his body was empty, and the entire carriage suddenly stood up in the air. Outside the carriage, the sound of horses roared, and as the sound disappeared, the carriage fell down with a "bang".
"kill!"
Looking at the man in black who suddenly jumped out of the forest, the imperial guard following behind him immediately drew out his saber and shouted: "Protect the eldest princess" and started fighting with the man in black.
The sound of swords only lasted for a short moment before disappearing completely. Ye Yun's heart sank. It seemed that all the soldiers accompanying him were killed.
She glanced at Fu Qimo and said: "This man is here for me. If you have a chance, just run away. Don't worry about me!"
After saying that, before Fu Qimo could respond, he had already left the carriage.
Outside the carriage, Ye Yun looked coldly at the men in black who had surrounded the carriage, with a sneer on her lips. She was about to reach out and take out the soft sword hidden in her belt, when she suddenly remembered that in order to make up for her guilt for occupying the original owner's body, she
Before leaving, she deliberately left the soft sword and silver whip in Fengyang Pavilion to show her respect for Queen Jingshu.
The hand resting on her waist paused, and her eyes caught sight of the saber that had fallen not far away. Ye Yun turned her hand and gathered an inner force to suck on the saber. In the blink of an eye, the saber fell into her hand.
Holding the handle of the knife, Ye Yun looked at the sword in his hand for a few times. Although it was inferior to her soft sword, it was still better than anything!
Turning his eyes, Ye Yun's sharp gaze swept around the many men in black and said: "Anyone who stands in the way of this palace will be killed without mercy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Yun took advantage of his unpreparedness and made a sudden move. The saber in his hand whirled around among the men in black. In an instant, several people had their necks wiped. Seizing the opportunity, Ye Yun immediately pulled up the reins and struck the horse's butt hard.
A flick.
The horse was in pain, screamed loudly, and immediately ran towards the gap, rushing out of the surroundings of the men in black in an instant.
Seeing the carriage running away, the man in black at the head immediately ordered: "Chase!"
Ye Yun had ridden a horse in her previous life, but how to drive a carriage was the first time for her to get into a sedan chair as a young girl.
Worried about being caught up by the man in black, Ye Yun took the reins and slapped the horse's butt hard several times.
The consequence of using too much force is that the horse loses control completely and plunges into the woods at an extremely fast speed.
On the carriage, Ye Yun was holding on to the reins to stop the carriage, and at the same time he had to stabilize his body to prevent himself from falling. Not long after, the reins strangled the skin of his palms due to long-term exertion, and the flesh and thick ropes were broken.
When they touch each other, they feel a burst of pain, just like salt has been sprinkled on the wound.
In the car, Fu Qimo wanted to go out to help, but the car was shaking so much that it was difficult to keep himself from falling, let alone getting up.
The carriage passed through the branches and leaves in the forest, stumbling all the way to the top of the cliff. Seeing that the horse showed no intention of stopping, Ye Yun's pupils shrank, and he immediately let go of the reins and stepped into the carriage, pulling up Fu Qi Mo through the broken window.
out.
Just as the two jumped out of the window, they heard a scream of "ouch" and the horse and carriage fell off the cliff together.
Ye Yun pulled Fu Qimo and jumped out of the window suddenly. When they fell to the ground, they rolled several times before stopping.
Rubbing his numb arms, Ye Yun got up from the ground. Seeing Fu Qimo still lying beside him, he said, "Are you okay?"
Fu Qimo shook his head: "It's okay." After saying that, he was about to push himself up on the ground, but found that his right arm hurt so much that he couldn't exert any strength.
Seeing that his expression was wrong, Ye Yungang wanted to ask him what was wrong, but the man in black behind him had already caught up with him.
The leader looked at the two people in a panic and said coldly: "Let's see how you escape now! Come on!"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the men in black rushed up. Seeing this, Ye Yun didn't have time to think too much. His figure flashed and walked around behind a man in black like a ghost. He broke his neck with a click and then took the long sword in his hand.
