Wang Xiaoxiao left knowingly. There were actually people singing opera over there. The stage was set up in the open air. It looked like a stage set up by a newly opened restaurant. It was very lively.
Yun Wu was afraid that she would be in danger, so she sent two maids and two guards to her. She was a small person, so she was not afraid of danger, so she stood in front of the stage and admired it.
The young man on the stage sang very well, even better than the famous actor invited by the old British lady to celebrate her birthday.
There were cheers from time to time in the audience. Wang Xiaoxiao asked the people next to him: "This man is good at singing, what is his name?"
"Girl, don't you even know him? Our most famous actor in Guanzhong, Lu Zheng, can sing the Qin opera!
He can spit fire, throw down, sweep lanterns, play with fire sticks, carry a spear, and hold a lantern, and his figure is also outstanding.
His plays are packed every day, and ordinary people can't invite him. This Manful Tower has invited people, and it's a feast for our eyes."
Qin Opera? No wonder she thought it sounded good, but she felt like she had never heard it before.
The style of the music was also more upbeat and upbeat than the ones she had heard before, just like the cheerful temperament of the people in Daguan.
Because he was a famous actor that most people wouldn't hear about, there were a lot of people watching the show. If Wang Xiaoxiao hadn't brought two maids and guards to help her squeeze in, she might not have been able to squeeze in.
The crowd was so crowded, it was nice to hear, but also very tiring. The most important thing was that Wang Xiaoxiao was short. The person in front of her was much taller than her, so she had to put her heels up to see him.
A corner on the stage breathed out a fire, causing the people below to shout loudly and cheer.
At this moment, a group of carriages passed by, but were blocked by the overwhelming crowd of spectators.
The people on the carriage shouted loudly: "Get out of the way, get out of the way, the carriage is going to rush over."
The carriage was blocked, but it drove directly towards the crowd as if it were in a deserted place.
Someone was unable to dodge and was knocked away. At this moment, the white shadow on the stage flashed, and several figures in white rushed towards the carriage. The sword in their hands flashed a killing edge in the sunlight.
Assassination?
Wang Xiaoxiao immediately realized that this was not an ordinary act of dissuasion, but an obvious ambush and assassination.
She subconsciously glanced at the logo on the carriage, which was an incomprehensible symbol.
"Let's leave quickly." Wang Xiaoxiao immediately ordered.
Now that we are on other people's territory, it is best not to cause trouble, so as not to injure Wuwu and the others.
The guards protected her and the two maids as they squeezed out of the surging crowd. The crowd was in chaos, with some screaming, some falling, and some children wailing.
The guards protected Wang Xiaoxiao and hid in a small alley with no people nearby.
"We will go out after the crowd has dispersed." Wang said with a smile.
The guard and the maid nodded repeatedly.
The maid was from the eldest prince's palace. She was afraid that something would happen to the distinguished guest, so her face turned pale with fright.
The guard belonged to Yun Wu, so he was quite calm.
Wang Xiaoxiao asked the two maids: "Do you know the man named Lu Zheng? He is a famous actor?"
"Yes, he is quite famous in Guanzhong, and most people can't afford to hire him."
"Then why can't he think of committing an assassination?" Wang Xiaoxiao was a little surprised.
She clearly saw clearly that one of the people who committed the assassination was a man named Lu Zheng.
"Slave...I don't know, this slave...maybe Mr. Lu just wants to stop their carriages from running over the people."
Wang Xiaoxiao hummed softly: "Let's take a look, the official officer should be here soon."
But she didn't think so in her heart. It was impossible to stop a few people from taking off, and the sword was so sharp, so she was obviously prepared.
Every opera singer carries a sharp sword.
The maid took out two sesame seed cakes she had just bought at the stall and handed them to Wang Xiaoxiao: "Miss, eat something first. Do you want any more melon seeds?"
Originally, Wang Xiaoxiao planned to take the melon seeds to a teahouse to drink tea and listen to books, but something big happened before it could be used.
The officials arrived quickly, and all they heard were screams, shouts, and the sound of close combat. Wang Xiaoxiao bit a sesame seed cake and looked outside. There were gradually fewer people, and the officials were scattered around looking for people.
People passing by said while running: "Master Lu became an assassin and assassinated King Anren."
"Prince Anren was stabbed in the chest several times and I don't know if he can survive."
"Master Lu and the others seem to have been hit by swords. They probably won't be able to escape far before they are caught."
"King Anni is the most beloved younger brother of the Holy Emperor. The Gojo Guards have ordered the city gates to be sealed. It is impossible to escape."
"Young Master Lu is such a big guy, why would you assassinate King Anren?"
"Have you not heard that King Anren embezzled the money used to build the embankment, which led to the Mohe embankment being washed away three years ago, killing and injuring many people?"
"Stop talking nonsense. There is no evidence for this. The person who filed the complaint last year said it was a fake complaint."
"It's groundless..."
Wang Xiaoxiao saw that everyone had gone to another place, and she stood up straight: "Let's go, let's go too, to meet Wu Wu and the others."
Just as she was about to walk out of the alley, she heard a "bang" behind her. When she looked back, a white shadow fell from the high wall of the alley.
The crescent-white robe was stained with bright red blood.
Wang Xiaoxiao turned pale with fright. She took several steps back: "Let's go quickly."
The maid screamed: "It's Mr. Lu."
Wang Xiaoxiao stopped. She was a little panicked and a little excited, as if something interesting had happened in her peaceful and boring life.
She wanted to know what she would do if it were Wuwu, and whether she would die or not.
Or maybe you just want to protect yourself and not meddle in such nosy matters.
But... if King An Ren is really the bad guy who killed so many people, then Lu Zheng is a hero and does not deserve to die.
Could she really refuse to save him until he died, and how could she save him?
How come this person can't escape well? What are he doing in this dead end? Isn't it hard to fly without wings?
"Go and see if the person is still angry." Wang Xiaoxiao said to the guard.
The guard stepped forward and checked: "Ms. Wang, you are still alive."
Wang Xiaoxiao gritted his teeth: "One of you will take off a robe and put it on him, then find a way to wipe the things off his face, take him to a haystack or bushes where he is not easily found, and throw him away."
We can't save him because he will bring trouble to Wuwu and the eldest prince, but we can't just die without saving him. We have no choice but to do this. Whether he can survive depends on his own destiny.
After Wang Xiaoxiao gave his instructions, he and his two maids hurried to meet Wuwu and the others.
With such a big event happening, Wuwu and the others must have gone to the meeting point and a tavern.
The Yidian Tavern is two streets away from the place where the accident happened. When Wang Xiaoxiao arrived, Yun Wu and the others were already waiting there.
Seeing her coming, Yun Wu breathed a sigh of relief: "I sent a few guards to look for you, didn't you meet them?"
Wang Xiaoxiao shook his head: "No, I came from the other side. Are you okay? There was an assassination in front."
"It's okay, I'm just worried about you."
She originally wanted to go by herself, but Ye Sang wouldn't let her go.
"I'll be fine with my guards, but... the assassin just happened to escape to where I was hiding and shed a lot of blood..."
Yun Wu's eyes widened: "I didn't do anything to you, right? Is he still alive?"
