When the people around me saw him reaching out to me like this, they were all startled. Those who wanted to get on the carriage clung to the shaft of the carriage and did not move. Those who wanted to walk to both sides also stopped. Everyone looked at us.

My heart sank slightly, but I still walked up and saluted respectfully: "What are your orders, Your Majesty?"

"Come and ride with me."

"...!"

As soon as these words came out, I almost heard the gasps of air-conditioning from some people around me. My heart also jumped. I lowered my head and did not dare to look at him. I only said cautiously: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness. It's just that.

, this is inconsistent with etiquette, how dare a humble minister overstep his bounds."

He seemed to smile slightly and took a step forward: "It doesn't matter, I'm sure."

"..."

Before I could say anything, his hand had already grasped my wrist and pulled me over: "Let me reward my meritorious service."

I staggered a little and was pulled in front of him, and I felt a cold sweat break out on my back. His attitude towards me was no longer the same as that of a courtier. Although he had it before - but it was not like it was shown to everyone now, almost.

Without any scruples, the officials standing around saw this scene and immediately looked at me with a hint of amusement in their eyes.

I know that although I was imprisoned in the Cold Palace for more than two years before being released, the people here will not really forget me, let alone my former identity, especially after Concubine Li was sterilized and Concubine Li gave birth to a child, and now

Pei Yuanhao's attitude towards me seems to have revealed a possibility to everyone.

Shin Gongye, who was standing in front of the carriage not far away, looked at me, his face darkened.

At this time, I couldn't say anything more. I could only bite my lower lip and quietly wanted to take my hand out of his hand. But as soon as I moved, I felt him grabbing me harder, like an iron pincer.

Unable to move.

"Get in the car."

"...Yes." I could only say softly: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your generous gift."

After saying that, I lowered my head and walked towards the golden car. I was holding on to the door frame to get on, but I forgot about the injury on my hand. As soon as I exerted my strength, I felt a sharp pain. I screamed in pain and was about to fall down.

At this time, a strong big hand reached out and grabbed my waist.

"...!"

I just felt my heart beating hard. I turned around hastily and met those dark eyes. There was even a trace of smile on his face that hadn't faded. He hugged me hard and lifted me up.

I boarded the golden chariot.

The gold car is very spacious, and the seats made of thick and soft fur make people feel a gentle feeling as soon as they step on it. There is also a light incense in the car, which permeates the surroundings warmly. It is perfect to sit in such a gold car in the cold winter.

Cars are really an incomparable enjoyment.

But at this moment, my feeling is not enjoyment at all.

In that part of the chest, my heart was beating so hard that it felt like it would burst out of my body at any time. I don’t know whether it was because of the exertion of force or because it was too painful, and my hands were shaking non-stop.

I raised my head, moved to the window a little embarrassed, and raised the curtain.

In the crowd of people, that familiar figure seemed to be about to be swallowed up. He stood there completely motionless and without any emotion. Those clear eyes just looked over - it was winter at this time, and his breath turned to ice.

In such a harsh weather, his last breath seemed to be completely integrated into the ice and snow.

My hand holding the curtain was shaking, as if it was in severe pain.

At this moment, a hand stretched out from behind and covered the back of my hand. My hand shook and the curtain suddenly fell down.

Before I could turn around, I felt a hot breath coming from behind and blowing on my ears, which made me shrink. When I turned around, I saw him holding his hands on the carriages on both sides, holding me captive.

In my arms, looking down at me.

His eyes were still so dark that there was no light. Even though he was so close, he couldn't see his emotions or anger clearly. It was just because he was so close that the tip of his nose was almost touching the tip of his nose, and even his lips were almost touching. His breath was full of

His taste.

My face suddenly felt hot, and the carriage was filled with that charming aura.

I flinched and hurriedly wanted to retreat, but there was no way to retreat behind me. My back slammed against the car. At this time, I heard the voice of the Imperial Guard coming from outside, a bit of flinching -

—

"Your Majesty."

"What's the matter?"

"Your Majesty, the assassin we just captured - him, he committed suicide."

"What?!"

He and I both trembled at the same time. Suddenly, some of the hot air in the car cooled down. Although he was still clinging to my body, his almost restless desire calmed down instantly. After being silent for a long time,

He said coldly: "How do you do things!"

"The general will wait until he is convicted!"

There was a crashing sound outside, and I knew that someone was kneeling on the floor without opening the curtain.

At such a critical moment in Yaowu Tower just now, he wanted to keep the assassin alive. Obviously he valued the assassin's origins very much and wanted to find out something. But now he actually let the assassin commit suicide, which broke the line.

.

He gritted his teeth, a trace of cruelty flashed across his face, and turned around to go out.

But just when he was about to reach out to lift the curtain, he found that his sleeve was caught. He froze for a moment. When he turned around, he saw his sleeve being held by me, with a shocked look on his face: "You

——"

I hesitated for a moment, then grabbed his sleeve: "The emperor doesn't have to argue with them about the assassins."

"..."

"Since he committed suicide after being caught, he must be a dead soldier. Such people have also been trained to survive torture. Even if they really want to be tortured, nothing can be learned."

"..."

"Your Majesty has beheaded the Minister of War today, so there will be no more bloodshed."

"..."

He remained silent and didn't speak, but there was a hint of joy in his eyes. He stretched out the curtain with his other hand and waved it gently: "That's all, step back."

"Thank you...Thank you, Your Majesty."

Those people breathed a sigh of relief as if they had received an amnesty, and all retreated.

After a while, the golden car swayed and slowly drove forward. I suddenly woke up and hurriedly let go of my hand, but before I could retract my hand, he had already reached over and grabbed my wrist.<

/p>

This time, the force was not heavy, and there was even some gentleness. The originally cold air in the carriage became a little warmer perhaps because of the incense. He grabbed my hand and gently rubbed my thumb.

When the rough skin touches my veins, it gives me a tingling feeling, which makes me shiver.

"Hand, does it still hurt?"

"No...no."

He wanted to pull his wrist away again, but this time the injury was really painful, and he couldn't use his arm at all. He looked down at the bandage with pink blood stains, and seemed to frown, but said nothing more.

The others were just silent for a while, and then slowly said: "You just said about the assassin...did you see something?"

"..."

"These people are Yaolao's people?"

I shook my head: "Although those people were ruthless, the emperor caught them and knew that they had been trained to endure torture, but Yao Lao did not have such dead soldiers, and this is not their style."

I raised my head and glanced at him. In fact, the light in his eyes revealed something, or he had guessed something. He asked me just to confirm his guess.

"Well..." He nodded and said, "I think these people are different from before."

Indeed, watching the three assassins climb to Yaowu Tower just now, I feel that they are very familiar with the environment there, especially the first assassin to climb to the third floor. He has no weapons on his body and even knows how to use iron nails to stab when convenient.

This is obviously a result of careful arrangements in advance, and he has a good understanding of the selection of the Ministry of War and the internal operations of Yaowu Building, otherwise it would not be so easy to sneak into the team of candidates.

It was very similar to the assassination they encountered outside the annex when they took Fu Badai and Qing Han into the palace.

However, the previous assassination did not dare to hurt the emperor at all and was very cautious; but this time it was clearly aimed at Pei Yuanhao, which was of course different from the previous one.

If you are not from the south or from the Shen family, then——

My heart sank.

Pei Yuanhao looked down at my wrist in his palm and frowned slightly: "What did you think of?"

I could feel my hands shaking, and when I spoke, my voice was a little broken. It took me a while to finally regain my composure: "Your Majesty, have you not fought against them in the past few years?"

"They", Pei Yuanhao's eyes flashed.

He understood immediately.

Chang Ming Zong!

When I was just released from the Cold Palace, I made some inquiries. I was a little surprised to find that there was no movement from the Changming Sect during the few years I was imprisoned. I was originally wondering how they could be so obedient, or maybe it was.

Did you intend to reconcile with the court? But after thinking about it carefully afterwards, you figured it out.

Because Huang Tianba is gone.

The Changming Sect was originally the deacon of the third division, and the Jiangwu Hall was responsible for training killers and scheduling personnel. Huang Tianba's defection and the desolation of the Jiangwu Hall could almost be said to have disrupted the situation of the entire Changming Sect. Therefore, in the past three or four years,

They have stopped taking action in this regard.

But today, an assassin appeared in Yaowu Tower.

This incident not only tells us that the Changming Sect will continue their actions, but also clearly shows a fact.

Huang Tianba’s shortcomings have been filled!

Perhaps, instead of being replaced just now, after Huang Tianba left, they should have immediately found a successor. However, it is not that easy to take over such a large killer group. It requires familiarity and integration.

Coupled with training and scheduling, it took four years for them to appoint a replacement for Huang Tianba, take over the martial arts hall, and carry out their next actions.

This person needs to be highly skilled in martial arts and have excellent military and leadership skills to be able to convince the public and be familiar with the situation in the capital.

My hand moved hard in his palm, but he grabbed it. I felt cold sweat pouring down like rain. I hurriedly raised my head and met Pei Yuanhao's dark eyes.
