Chapter 294

Hanhan: "Did you mean my dad was assassinated?"

"It may not be, it may be that it was taken away by someone." Beibei explained, "The water suddenly flowed through the temple, and the hiding assassin also appeared, proving that the time for the assassination was ripe. Your father was either not in the temple or was entangled, otherwise these assassins would not take action rashly."

The reputation of King Yi of Northern Qin is also well-known among the people.

With him beside Emperor Zhaoming, few assassins dare to act so blatantly.

Han Han reacted and his brows frowned even tighter.

Xiao Lingyue landed lightly on a big tree, covered by thick branches and leaves, and the main hall of the Buddhist temple was not far ahead.

The fire burned from the side hall and along the pillars to the beams, and thick smoke rushed straight to the sky.

The heat waves in the air are rolling, mixed with the pungent smell of tung oil.

"Hurry and hurry!"

"Come in water, go and get water!"

In the square in front of the Buddhist temple, there are extremely messy figures.

The imperial guards, monks in the temple, and officials and family members who were alarmed were densely packed.

Many monks carried buckets and rushed into the Buddhist temple without fear of death. Some people even rolled out with fire on their bodies and screamed in pain. The people next to them hurriedly slapped the flames, and the buckets were poured on.

The officials and their families were so scared that their faces were pale, and many of the women were scared to tears.

Xiao Lingyue looked around quickly and suddenly frowned: "Strange, they are all busy putting out the fire, why don't they see the assassin?"

Although the main hall was chaotic, there was no blood.

The imperial guards and monks were busy putting out the fire, and officials also helped.

Xiao Lingyue even saw Shen Zhijiang and Shen Yuting, who were punished to kneel, and was so scared that she shivered in the corner, and no one cared about it.

"Why is Emperor Zhaoming not here?" Xiao Lingyue's heart flashed with doubts, "Also, the number of these imperial guards is too small. Where have the others gone?"

Beibei also realized something was wrong: "Why are there only a few people trying to put out the fire?"

He clearly remembered that Emperor Zhaoming had traveled, and there were 20,000 imperial guards just guarding him. Although most of them were responsible for guarding the guards around Xiangguo Temple, there was not only such a small number of people around him.

unless

"The emperor's grandfather is not here!" Han Han's words were astonishing.

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Lingyue saw a figure stumbled out from behind the side hall, unable to see his face clearly. He only saw him wearing the imperial guards' stomach, covering his abdomen tightly, and blood flowed out.

The man opened his mouth as if he wanted to shout something, but he didn't make a sound and threw himself to the ground.

The crowds around were in a mess and were busy putting out the fire.

No one noticed that the seriously injured imperial guard fell not far away and was about to die.

Xiao Lingyue's eyelids twitched.

The assassin's target is not here, and there are hundreds of imperial guards in the square, which is safe enough.

"Hanhan, Beibei, let's go down first." Xiao Lingyue jumped off the treetops with her two children in her arms, walked quickly to the fallen imperial guards, put down the two children, and immediately asked, "What happened?"

"" The imperial guard, who was about to faint, suddenly opened his eyes when he heard the voice. A hand covered in blood grabbed Xiao Lingyue's hand, his face turned purple and red, and his veins burst.

He tried his best to widen his eyes, trying to say something, but he could only make a hoarse and broken sound in his throat.

Xiao Lingyue frowned. This was obviously a hoarse voice caused by poisonous smoke.

"He was so seriously injured!" Han Han saw the pool of blood flowing under the imperial guards and hurriedly asked, "Have you met an assassin? Where is the emperor's grandfather?"
