Chapter 326 Which No. 1 Assassin?
Shi Li waited until the sky outside gradually brightened and dawn arrived.
There were footsteps coming from far away outside the tent, and Qi Yong's voice sounded immediately, "Princess, I have something important to report!"
"Enter."
Shi Li stood up, wrapped herself in a thick cloak, and held her breath nervously.
Qi Yong walked in hurriedly with his head lowered.
"Princess, the scouts in the city sent a message that someone broke into the imperial mausoleum!"
Shi Li’s eyes went dark and she almost fainted.
She didn't understand why Xuan Yi would go to the imperial mausoleum instead of assassinating Emperor Wei Ling.
Are you really going to make her a widow?
Qi Yong didn't hear any movement for a while. He looked up quietly and saw Shi Li's face as white as rice paper. "Princess?"
"If you have any other news, please tell me." Shi Li suppressed her fear and nervousness and tried to remain calm.
In this world, she can't trust anyone except Xuan Yi.
A few minutes later, new news came.
The person who came this time was Sun Zhaonan.
Compared to the last time we met, he seemed more mature and experienced.
After entering the tent, he did not dare to look up at Shi Li, but bowed his head and said respectfully: "Princess, an assassin broke into the palace last night, and Emperor Wei Ling has been killed!"
"Ah."
Shi Lihun responded absentmindedly, without saying anything extra, and walked out of the main tent holding up her skirt.
It was bright outside, and the orange morning light sprinkled behind me like golden lines.
Qi Yong and Sun Jianchen obviously knew the news earlier than her and had already started to organize their troops.
As the old saying goes - attack while the disease is severe.
If we attack the imperial capital now, the losses will definitely be minimal.
Shi Li looked around, wrapped his cloak tightly around himself, and stared silently into the distance.
Qi Yong passed by not far away, glanced at her as if he had some feeling, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
"My Lord, we can't be concerned about love affairs at this time."
Sun Jianchen looked at Qi Yong meaningfully, saying, "Once we invade the imperial capital, we can discuss everything."
Privately, as long as Shi Li was not present, many people had changed their way of addressing Qi Yong to "Lord".
If nothing unexpected happens, they will capture the imperial capital and Qi Yong will be able to become emperor.
Sun Jianchen had a serious look on his face, but he was thinking about the piece of fat meat, the mother of a country.
Since he couldn't rely on his son, he had to let his daughter fight for the throne. His eldest daughter and Qi Yong had known each other since childhood, and they were childhood sweethearts. Even if Shi Li was ahead, she might still be able to fight for the position of queen.
The army quickly broke camp, and the people below obeyed orders and came to invite Shi Li to get on the carriage.
No matter what her identity will be in the future, she must go with him now. After all, the tiger talisman is still in her hand.
Shi Li said nothing, holding the shaft of the cart and preparing to get on.
A soldier in charge of guarding the surrounding area suddenly let out a surprised cry, and the air around him seemed to freeze.
Shi Li's heart skipped a beat, and he turned his head quickly without caring about his dignity, and was instantly blinded by the bright red blossoms on the ground.
Xuan Yi was standing not far away, his face was the palest she had ever seen, and his smile was the most smug and proud she had ever seen.
His face was stained with blood, and his red clothes were thick and thin. It was unknown where the blood was or whose it was, but it dripped onto the ground like a strange blooming flower.
Seeing Shi Li looking over, his smile widened, and he raised a scarred hand, arrogantly and willfully, "Little Princess, come here."
Shi Li jumped off the carriage without hesitation and stumbled towards him.
"Did I ever say that if you don't come back, I'll turn around and marry Qi Yong!"
Walking in front of Xuan Yi, Shi Li gritted her teeth and glared at his face.
If he didn't look so miserable now, she would have wanted to punch him twice.
"That's probably not possible."
Xuan Yi didn't care about her anger at all, he smiled and shook his head, "As long as I'm here, the little princess can't marry anyone else."
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Shi Li finally broke down and tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
"I'll marry you, I'll marry you, only you, please! Hurry up and get in the carriage and lie down!"
"Okay, I'll listen to the little princess."
The coldness in Xuan Yi disappeared, and his voice and expression became so obedient that it seemed like he was a different person.
From the time he returned until he got on the carriage, he said nothing about where he had been and what he had done.
Seeing how miserable he was, Shi Li completely forgot to ask him why he broke into the imperial tomb. She just carefully supported his shoulders and let him lie on her legs.
"Little Princess." Xuan Yi raised his head and closed his eyes comfortably. He seemed not to feel any pain from the wounds on his body, and his voice was lazy and casual.
Shi Li quietly raised a finger, traced his face in the air, and responded absentmindedly, "Hmm?"
As a result, Xuan Yi just smiled slightly and didn't say anything.
The little princess, born noble, is not threatened by anyone, nor does she have to be grateful to anyone. She can do whatever she wants.
That's fine.
[If all yanderes were like Xuan Yi, I would order eight of them!!!]
[Like is unbridled, love is restrained, and the same goes for yandere~]
[Yes, yes, yes, going crazy towards your lover and imprisoning him/her is because of possessiveness! It is not love at all!]
The commentators were chatting crazily and expressing their own opinions.
The carriages followed behind the army, moving slowly towards the imperial capital, as if time was peaceful and tranquil.
