"Emperor, be careful!"
The civil and military officials all cried out in alarm, but even the imperial weapons could not stop it, so what could they, the powerless officials, do?
Song Qingshu intentionally looked in Jia Shidao's direction. He saw his body shake slightly, but he didn't make a move in the end.
"If Zhao Gou dies …" Song Qingshu's mind raced, and he began to think about whether Zhao Gou's death or his life would benefit him.
Suddenly, his expression changed, and he suddenly looked in Zhao Gou's direction.
The sharp tip of the sword was about to pierce Zhao Gou's throat, but there was a visible ripple in the air in front of Zhao Gou. Her sword stopped when it reached it, and it couldn't go any further.
Xiao Long Nu's heart skipped a beat, and the sword in her left hand instantly stabbed towards Zhao Gou in an arc. But halfway through, it was stopped by a ripple in the air.
Then, an old man shrouded in a black cloak seemed to appear out of thin air. Xiao Longnu only felt a huge force coming from her hands. She could no longer hold the sword in her hands, and with a cry, she was sent flying back.
The yellow-shirted woman rushed over, and the Nine Yin White Bone Claws in her hands subconsciously clawed at her shoulder. Once her shoulder blades were locked, no matter how strong she was, she couldn't fight back.
Xiao Long Nu was still in deep shock, and she didn't even notice that the yellow-shirted woman's hands were about to touch her clothes. But even if she noticed, she couldn't do anything. Without the two swords in her hands, her martial arts skills were greatly reduced, and she was no match for the yellow-shirted woman.
Just as she was about to subdue the white-shirted woman, the yellow-shirted woman saw a flash in front of her eyes, and she was shocked to find that she had lost her opponent.
Xiao Longnu knew that her assassination attempt had failed and she would not be able to escape death. She had already closed her eyes and waited for the final outcome. Who knew that after waiting for a long time, there was still no movement. She could not help but open her eyes curiously, only to find that she was in the arms of a man.
"Let … let go of me." Xiao Long Nu subconsciously wanted to push him away, but she immediately saw that the person who was hugging her was actually Song Qingshu. She didn't know what to think, but she blushed and put her hands on his chest, but she didn't push him away.
At this time, everyone present could clearly see the situation. Seeing that the person who saved the assassin was Song Qingshu, the yellow-robed woman was shocked and anxious, "What are you doing? She's an assassin!"
She was so anxious that she almost stamped her feet. It was fine if you were a little greedy and lecherous normally, but how could you act recklessly at this critical moment? Although the white-clothed woman was elegant and refined, she was an assassin who tried to assassinate the emperor. This was a crime worthy of nine generations of the emperor's family being executed. Your martial arts are indeed very high, but can it be higher than my master's? Just now, the white-clothed woman was so powerful, but she still wasn't my master's match. Not to mention that the Imperial Palace is filled with experts and tens of thousands of imperial guards. With so many people surrounding you, even if you grew wings, you wouldn't be able to escape.
Not far away, Ah Ke's hands, which were hidden in her sleeves, were tightly clasped together, her knuckles turning white. She saw that Song Qingshu had actually run out to save the female assassin, and from the way the two of them looked at each other, she knew that their relationship was not ordinary. She was jealous and angry, but in the end, she didn't want to see Song Qingshu really be killed on the spot. She also hurriedly said, "Song … Prince Song, have you recognized the wrong person?"
She had originally thought that as long as Song Qingshu admitted that he had recognized the wrong person, with the addition of his special status and the group of people speaking up for him, today's storm could quietly be calmed down.
Unexpectedly, Song Qingshu shook his head. Looking at Xiao Long Nu in his arms, he smiled and said, "How could I not recognize my savior?"
Xiao Long Nu knew that he was talking about the time when he had been poisoned by the Golden Rippling Flower in Yangzhou and how she had saved him. Thinking about how she had fed him medicine with her mouth at that time, Xiao Long Nu felt a trace of embarrassment rise in her heart. She hurriedly pushed him away. "Quickly put me down, this … this is improper."
Song Qingshu also knew that he was currently in a deep encirclement, and there was also a super expert like Huang Chang watching from the side. If he continued to hold her like this, today he would probably really die with a grievance.
Gently placing the beautiful woman in his arms on the ground, Song Qingshu gently said, "In a moment, you will stay close to me."
Xiao Long Nu made a sound of agreement. Originally, when she entered the palace to assassinate the emperor, she had the conviction that she would either succeed or die trying. She had already thought of dying, but she did not expect that she would actually meet Song Qingshu here. After seeing him, Xiao Long Nu suddenly realized that she did not want to die so soon.
Moqi Feng finally reacted. This unforeseen event almost made him unable to restrain himself from throwing his head back and laughing three times. He hurriedly ordered, "Song Qingshu, so you are an accomplice of the assassin. Guards, kill these two traitors without mercy!"
"Yes!"
In just a short while, the guards of the palace had completely reacted. Countless imperial guards instantly surged out and charged towards the two people in the middle of the field.
"Help me find two swords, I will face the enemy with you." Xiao Long Nu said in a gentle voice. She clearly knew that with so many imperial guards, if Song Qingshu still had to take care of her, he would definitely be unable to attend to one thing and lose sight of another.
"How can two swords be enough?" Song Qingshu shielded her behind him, then slowly raised both his hands. Suddenly, the swords and blades of the surrounding imperial guards began to buzz. This unforeseen event caused the group of people who were charging forward to stop in their tracks in bewilderment.
Song Qingshu smiled faintly, then abruptly raised his hands. The buzzing swords and blades seemed to be pulled by a pair of invisible hands, flying out of their sheaths one after another.
The swords and sabers that filled the sky formed a torrent of steel, finally floating in midair with Song Qingshu as the center of the circle with a radius of ten feet. The gleaming blades faced outwards, quickly rotating around him, forming a forbidden zone for life.
* Hiss *
Witnessing such a strange scene, the group of imperial guards who were charging forward sucked in a breath of cold air and hurriedly stopped in their tracks. Some even retreated at the same time, looking at the scene in front of them in shock.
Song Qingshu casually plucked two swords from midair and handed them to Xiao Long Nu, "These are the two swords you dropped just now. I've picked them up for you."
"Thank you big … brother-in-law." In the past, she was already used to calling him brother-in-law, but for some reason, now that she called him brother-in-law, Xiao Long Nu found it difficult to say it out loud.
When she took the swords, she accidentally touched Song Qingshu's hand. Feeling the heat from his hand, Xiao Long Nu could not help but think that in Gu Mu, it was this pair of hands that did evil things to her body. In this world, were there such brothers-in-law and sister-in-law …
Xiao Long Nu's mind wavered and she felt a sweetness in her throat. She could not help but spill a trace of blood from the corner of her mouth.
Song Qingshu helped her wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth. He frowned and said, "The Jade Women's Heart Sutra requires you to abandon the seven emotions and six desires. It is really going against the heavens. After this difficulty, I will teach you another martial art."
"No …" Xiao Long Nu subconsciously refused because the Jade Women's Heart Sutra was a memory of her and Yang Guo. But when she thought of Yang Guo, she could not help but think of the scene of him and another woman in Gu Mu. With a "wa" sound, she spat out another mouthful of blood.
