The Assassin was lying on the ground, but no one noticed him as he glanced around and sighed heavily. He didn't know how he would torture him after tomorrow. He didn't want to betray everyone, but he was afraid that Prince Consort would cut off his limbs and feed them to the ants. Rather than living a life worse than death, it was better to just end it with a single slash. Thinking about this, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Wasn't it like biting his tongue to commit suicide? He bit down hard with his tongue, and the pain made his eyes water. It seemed like biting one's tongue to commit suicide was still too difficult. It was as easy as smashing one's head into a wall to die. With a hole in his head, he died. However, to die just like that was truly depressing. People didn't even know what their own names were. This Prince Consort's words were also true, and the case could not be clearly heard. As he thought about this, he moved to the wall and wiped some blood off his face. He thought to himself, "People leave their names and geese leave their voices. No matter what, they should leave their heroic words on the wall." His death was worth it! "Awesome!" When he thought of the damp walls and the potholes, he couldn't write clearly for a long time. He sighed. Forget it, he should just take advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him and crash into the wall. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to die even if he were to be discovered later on. He had just been hit by a plank and was now bleeding profusely. How could he stand up? He held on to the wall for a long time before finally being able to stand up, his legs trembling. Gritting his teeth, he retreated a few steps and tried to run again, but he couldn't. He desperately dashed forward and slammed his head against the wall, the rebound knocking him to the ground again. His back hurt so much that he cried out. Did he ascend to heaven? He was in great pain when a fairy in a yellow dress with a pink headband approached slowly. She was incredibly beautiful. Am I not going to die and have the fairy come to fetch me? He thought to himself, nevermind, no matter who it is, they will all die. When they died, it was the fairy that came to his aid, not Ox-Head and Horse-Face, so he should be satisfied.

"How is the good man? "Better?"

"Er — —" He raised his head again to look, and only then could he clearly see that this fairy was clearly the maid who had helped him so much today. She … what did she come here for? The personal maid of Prince Consort had come to visit an assassin. Did she want to die? Could it be that she was trying to seduce a beauty like him? Then, should he make a plan? He repeatedly struggled in his heart, but Jiu Zhen had already squatted down. Blinking her starry eyes, she asked with concern, "Did the brave hero get beaten up?"

"Er — nothing. Don't even think about what he knows from his own mouth. "Hmph, it's been eighteen years since anyone has died. He's a good man again." He didn't know why, but he felt like dying in front of Jiuzhen.

"A brave man is truly a hero. Can you tell me the name of a brave man? In the future when we are in the clear, I can help you burn some gold ingots and paper money."

"Er —" the man choked in his throat. "Aren't you here to persuade me to surrender?"

"Since a good man wants to be a hero, how can this servant sully his reputation as a good man? I just don't know how to address him."

"My surname is Zhou, and my name is Xi Qi."

"Oh, so it's Big Brother Zhou. Big Brother Zhou has suffered greatly." She took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off his face, then took out a bottle of powder and sprinkled it on the wound on his shoulder.

For a moment, Zhou Siqi felt as if his whole body had become soft, and the pain in his back also disappeared in a flash. He felt as if he had fallen into the clouds, not knowing how long he had been in this world.

A loud noise interrupted Zhou Xizhi's beautiful dream. Then, the door of the cell was kicked open, and a man in black walked towards him with a guard who was holding a saber in his hand.

Did he come to save me?

Zhou Xi Qi got up and instantly felt lucky, waving his hand and said, "I'm here, here!"

The black-clothed man rubbed his guard's neck, causing him to fall limply to the ground. All signs of life went silent in an instant. He cut the chain on the cell door and came in to pull up his partner. His face was covered, and only his eyes stared straight at him, giving him goosebumps.

Zhou Xizai moistened his throat and asked joyfully, "But did Brother Li call you here to save me?"

The black clothed man raised his blade and placed it on Han Li's shoulder as he asked in a low voice, "You are indeed still alive."

Zhou Siqi never thought that he would ask that question. He immediately felt wronged and wanted to call his mother, hurriedly explaining, "I didn't say anything, did I?"

"Didn't say? He probably said quite a bit. If nothing at all is said, will they treat you so well? " While speaking, Jiu Zhen looked at Zhou Siqi, who was hiding behind his cold blade light.

"About this, I can't explain it clearly. Let's talk after we get out of here." This girl is a good person. If you don't believe me, we can bring her along and escape.

"Good people? You didn't know that you were tricked by someone else's beauty? "

"I really didn't say anything, or else I wouldn't have been beaten to such a state by that wicked Prince Consort. If you bring me to see Big Brother Li, I will naturally explain everything to him." Zhou Xi Qi panicked a little. Why was it so hard to be a hero?

The man in black pulled back his blade and sneered, "Only a dead person can not say anything." However, he did not kill Zhou Sizhi. Instead, he turned to Jiu Zhen and said coldly, "I will kill this little bastard first, then I will kill you!"

Jiu Zhen was so scared that she tightly held onto his clothes. "Big Brother Zhou, I don't want to die!"

Zhou Siqi stretched out his arms to block Jiuzhen, but he didn't know where he got the courage to do so. Even when he tried to assassinate the princess, he didn't have the courage to do so.

"Don't touch her, she's innocent!"

The man in black raised his blade. "How can a servant of the stinking Prince Consort Ma's family be innocent?" Since you want to die, then I shall help you! " With that, he swung his blade towards Zhou Sizhi's neck. Unexpectedly, Zhou Sizhi was not afraid. Instead, he closed his eyes and waited for death. In fact, Jiu Zhen was so shocked that he threw himself on Zhou Siqi's body. The moment the black-clothed man's blade landed, someone shouted outside the door, "The assassin's accomplice is here, don't let him escape!"

The black clothed person thought that he was talking too much and was anxious to silence him. He swung his blade and was about to cut him down, but Jiu Zhen quickly grabbed him by the waist and laid him down. The two of them fell to the ground, barely escaping death. The two men in black were so scared that they broke out in a cold sweat. It was only then that Jiuzhen managed to react.

When the guards rushed in, the man in black's martial arts were not bad. He rushed forward to cut down a few people. The guards were not a match for him at all. If they didn't die, they would be injured. However, more and more people rushed in through the door. Although the black clothed man's martial arts were high, he was still unable to withstand the sea of people's tactics. At this moment, he was trapped in the cell again. It was as the saying goes, a battle between trapped beasts. He turned around and was about to pull Jiuzhen when Zhou Siqi suddenly raised his hand with all his might to grab his elbow and unsheathe his blade with his bare hand. Jiuzhen, afraid that he would be in danger, fearlessly rushed over and grabbed the man's arm, turned around and shouted at Zhou Siqi, "Big Brother Zhou, don't worry about me, let's go!" Zhou Xiyan broke out in a cold sweat. Was this girl scared silly? What happened in the past was too inopportune! The black clothed man then pulled Jiu Zhen into his embrace, placed the knife on his neck and shouted, "Whoever comes again, I'll kill her!"

The guards did not know whether to advance or to retreat. Some of them thought that although Jiuzhen's status was low, she still had to be consort with a Prince Consort after all. It was not good to ignore her life and death. Some even felt that Jiuzhen's maidservants were more important than catching an assassin. Seeing that he could not get out of Jiu Zhen's way, the man in black tightened his blade around Jiuzhen's neck, and Jiuzhen's flawless white skin immediately turned into a bloody line. Zhou Siqi's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

"This is such a small matter. As for the matter that is causing such a ruckus that even This Prince Consort can't sleep soundly, even if he were to be disturbed, he won't be able to sleep soundly." "Hurry, hurry up and open up a path for the heroes. If you hurt This Prince Consort's heart, I'll kill you all to accompany him in death!" It was unknown when Qin Xiao was already standing at the door. As soon as she finished speaking, everyone neatly threw their sabers and made a path for themselves. After that man in black made sure that there was no more danger, he quickly ran out with Jiu Zhen in tow. Everyone followed closely behind. Zhou Xiyan was about to follow him out when one of his guards locked the door again, causing him to shout, "We must save Lady Jiuzhen!" Knowing that Qin Xiaoliu thought so highly of her, he decided that there would be no more danger. However, he felt a deep sense of inferiority and walked back to the wall with his head lowered.

The man in black dragged Jiu Zhen all the way to Qin Xiao's study room before letting go. He took off his veil and realized it was Jia Liu. He said apologetically, "Sorry for the offense, Jiuzhen."

Jiu Zhen rubbed her neck. "It's fine."

He hurriedly used his sleeve to wipe off the blood on Jiuzhen's neck, blowing on it from time to time. His eyes were filled with pain, causing Jia Liu to tremble with fear and almost beg for mercy.

Jia Six heaved a sigh of relief and replied with a feeling of shock, "Prince Consort has flattered me."

"Good performance, brothers. In a few days, when I'm better, let's have a stroll at the Dew Pavilion and have a feast at the Fragrant Sky Tower."

When everyone heard that there was such a treatment, they were ecstatic. Jiuzhen covered her mouth and secretly laughed.

"Prince Consort, do you want to bring up that kid now?" Jia Six continued to flatter.

"Forget it, let's cool him down first. I haven't slept at all, I'm so tired that I can die." With that, he wrapped his arms around Jiuzhen and looked at her neck. "In a while, apply some medicine. Don't leave any scars." Jiu Zhen smiled and said that she was fine, while supporting her, he placed his entire weight on his own body, and supported her to rest.

"Motherf * cker, the wound hurts like hell. It's one thing for a royal relative to not be able to enjoy the good fortune, but to have to be on tenterhooks every day." She complained as she entered the room. Everyone retreated and left. Jia Liu whispered, "I think this Jiu Zhen will no longer be a servant." Come on, with our princess' temper, it would be weird if we don't eat our Prince Consort alive. You all should forget about Xue Yi. "

"Didn't Xue Yi become a concubine in the Dragon Sword Villa?"

"Our Prince Consort is very close to the Dragon Sword Villa. Who knows if he's hiding a girl in a golden house! Because of this, the princess had already filed a complaint. Seeing how the Prince Consort had beaten him, he was on the verge of losing his life. "If only he had taken the Nine Treasures —" He wiped his hand across his neck.

Everyone felt that his words were reasonable and couldn't help but to mourn for Qin Xiaoliu.
