It's just that Wu Yunli probably didn't expect that those people were red-faced, and even Wu Yunli couldn't control it, let alone Wu Sidao, who was cut down.

For a moment, the hall was filled with a disgusting smell of blood.

At the same time, it gives people a sense of oppression that death is approaching.

Just as the assassins surrounded the fourth master and Ruoyin, and the encirclement became tighter and tighter, there was a sound of rustling outside the courtyard.

It sounded like the footsteps of a large number of people rushing here, uniform and neat.

The next moment, an officer in an official uniform rushed in.

"We are the catchers of Yangzhou Mansion, and we now order you to be arrested quickly!" As soon as the man entered, he made a loud voice explaining what he had come to do.

But those assassins were not afraid of death, and they just wanted to solve Ruoyin quickly.

One by one, waving the weapons in their hands, dancing at her demons, it was enough to see how much they hated her.

Seeing this, of course, those fast catchers will not be merciful.

The head catcher at the head made a gesture and ordered in a deep voice: "Release the arrow!" ”

As soon as the words fell, hundreds of swift bows and arrows were aimed at the uniformly dressed assassins.

"Woohoo!" One assassin after another fell.

After shooting three rounds of bows and arrows, the catchers joined the team of the four masters.

With the addition of hundreds of fast catchers, the assassins, who were originally a little tired, were taken down one by one in less than a stick of incense.

The hall also gradually returned to calm.

Ruoyin hurriedly helped the fourth master and simply wrapped the wound for him with a handkerchief.

The fourth master's eyes looked at her, and when he saw that she was covered with blood, he asked in a low voice, "Did you hurt you?" ”

Hearing this, Ruoyin's bandaged hand paused slightly.

Somehow, her nose was sore, her eyes were slightly red, and she said with a choked voice: "No." ”

"Really?"

"Really." Ruoyin replied affirmatively.

There are so many assassins in Shicai, and the fourth master has always protected her behind him.

Several times the guards tried to let them go first.

However, there were too many stabbing guests, and they were surrounded every time.

Moreover, the entrance and the courtyard were filled with Assassins.

As a result, they can't go first if they want to.

During this time, the Assassins attempted to kill her on several occasions.

Every time, he was blocked by the fourth master and the guards.

As for the blood on her clothes.

It was the assassin who splashed on her when they were fighting with the fourth master.

But the blood on the fourth master's body is the blood of the wounded.

His cuffs, in particular, were already soaked in blood.

When I thought that he had several injuries on his body, he stopped and asked her first, and he was inexplicably worried.

The fight stopped, and the headcatcher found Wu Sidao in the crowd.

He lifted Wu Sidao, who was lying in a pool of blood, and let him rest on his knees.

"Lao Wu, how are you, don't scare me, I'm on patrol, and when I received your letter, I immediately brought someone over, who knows, it's still late." The head catcher seemed to have a good relationship with Wu Sidao, and saw that Wu Sidao was covered in injuries, his eyes were scarlet, and his tone was full of self-blame.

Wu Sidao was covered in blood, and his face was also covered with blood.

He barely opened his eyes, opened his mouth, and whispered something.

I only knew that after hearing this, the head catcher immediately responded: "Okay, okay, I'll let Yunli come over." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned to Wu Yunli.

Wu Yunli knelt beside Wu Sidao and cried, "Dad." ”

Wu Sidao opened his mouth and said weakly: "Child, why are you doing this, why don't you just refuse to listen to your father." ”

His voice was weak, full of chagrin and hatred.

Wu Sidao originally wanted to take the opportunity of his birthday to make Wu Yunli apologize to the emperor and queen.

I never expected my daughter to come out like this.

Now I want to apologize, but it's too late.

If it weren't for the tacit understanding between him and the fourth master for many years, the fourth master gave him a look, and he ordered the servant to secretly call the Yangzhou patrol and catch the head.

Otherwise, the consequences are unimaginable!

At this moment, Wu Yunli knelt in front of Wu Sidao and cried: "Daddy, my daughter is wrong. ”

"It's useless to say that it's wrong now." Wu Sidao gasped and looked at the fourth master in the distance.

The fourth master was originally sitting on a chair and let Ruoyin bandage his wounds.

Seeing Wu Sidao looking at him, he approached and squatted down slightly.

I only heard Wu Sidao whisper in his ear: "Fourth master, although the slave has returned to his hometown, he will always be your most loyal minion." ”

Hearing this, the fourth master's expression tightened, and his deep ink pupils had an indescribable black shadow.

At this time, a mouthful of blood overflowed from the corner of Wu Sidao's mouth.

But he continued: "Yun Li is my only offspring, I beg you to open the net and spare her from death, she is just a little girl, and she will not be a threat to you." It's a big deal that you can let people watch her, or put her in prison, but please don't ask for her life, okay? ”

A father's love is like a mountain, he is like most ordinary parents, no matter how old their children are, they are just a child in his eyes.

Fourth Master: "......"

"Over the years, I've blamed me for being too indulgent with her, and now ...... I also kind of suffered the consequences of my failed education......" Wu Sidao began to gasp for air.

He wanted to say something, but his lips opened, but he didn't say anything.

At the same time, those weak eyes stared at the boss, as if they wanted to get a definite answer from the fourth master's mouth.

Otherwise, he would not be able to look away.

Seeing this scene, the fourth master finally let out a faint "um", which can be regarded as an answer.

Wu Sidao knows the fourth master very well, and he knows that the fourth master is not good at words.

In the past, when he was in Prince Yong's mansion, every time he talked with the fourth master at night, the fourth master said the most was "um".

So, hearing this familiar "um", his eyes finally closed with peace of mind.

"Daddy!!" Seeing Wu Sidao close his eyes, Wu Yunli shouted heartbreakingly.

Wu Sidao also shook his hands.

However, no matter how she shouted, Wu Sidao's eyes never opened.

The maid on the side probed Wu Sidao's breath and said sadly: "Miss, don't shake it, master, he ...... went. ”

"Smack!" Wu Yunli actually slapped the maid, "You are talking nonsense, Daddy, he is not dead, he must have been too badly injured, so he fainted, he will wake up......"

In the end, she couldn't believe it.

I can only cry more and more, and my voice is getting louder and louder.

"Enough!" The fourth master shouted loudly.

Frightened, Wu Yunli's body trembled slightly, and he immediately stopped crying.

It's just that the tears can't stop flowing, and the palms of my hands are covering my mouth, not daring to let myself make a sound.

The fourth master got up and said condescendingly: "Su Peisheng, you stay to deal with the master's funeral, and bury him and Mrs. Wu together." As for Wu Yunli, he guards the tomb for his master in the cemetery, and he is never allowed to enter or leave the cemetery, and he will spend his whole life confessing what he has done! ”

"Yes!" Su Peisheng and Wu Yunli answered together.

Today's incident, if it weren't for Wu Yunli's troubles, there would have been no such thing at all.

Then, Wu Sidao didn't have to block the knife for the fourth master, and he lost his life.

It was precisely because Wu Sidao blocked a knife for the fourth master, and the fourth master looked at Wu Sidao's dying face, so he didn't ask for Wu Yunli's life.

Otherwise, this Wu Yunli would have no way to live.

Now listening to the meaning of the fourth master, it is to let her be imprisoned in the cemetery for the rest of her life.

After the fourth master explained the relevant aftermath of Wu Sidao, he left Wu Sidao's courtyard with Ruoyin.

Behind him were the cries of the maids, servants, and Wu Yunli.

But in the blink of an eye, the originally festive birthday banquet became a sad white thing.

Back at the inn, Imperial Doctor Feng examined the wound of the fourth master.

also prescribed some medicine and ointment, so that the fourth master could eat and wipe on time.

At this moment, Ruoyin and the fourth master both changed into clean clothes.

The fourth master was sitting on the edge of the bed, and she was smearing medicine for him.

When she treated the wound on his palm, she saw an old scar on his palm.

The scar was in the palm of his hand, like a severed palm, splitting his palm.

The combination of new and old wounds made his scars deeply trapped in the flesh of his palm.

Suddenly, the tears were like the flood that burst the embankment, the kind that can't be stopped.

Although the fourth master has a lot of wounds on his body, they were left by him when he fought with Emperor Kangxi.

There are also some scars that were counted by other princes when he was a prince.

But this scar on his palm evoked memories deep in her heart.

She clearly remembered that the old scar on his palm was Emperor Kangxi's southern tour many years ago.

She and the fourth master, as well as the princes, accompanied her.

As a result, it rained heavily on the road, and the Assassins attacked it.

They were sitting in the carriage when the Assassin stabbed a sword several feet long through the window.

The sword was about to cut through her face, and when it stabbed her head, it was the fourth master who vigorously held the sharp sword edge that glowed with cold light.

caused the blade to cut deep into his palm.

Now, after so many years, although the injury is healed, the scar is still there, and the memory is still there.

This time, he also held the weapon for the Assassin when she tried to stab her.

If it weren't for his protection, I'm afraid she would have died a long time ago.

As long as I think of every moment when he protects her, I feel that he is super manly!

Emotionally, the fourth master can't give her a sense of security.

But when it comes to responsibility, he always gives her a strong sense of security.

Every time she doesn't care what happens, as long as the fourth master is there, she is very relieved.

It's like the sky is falling, and there's nothing to be afraid of.

At this moment, something blurred Ruoyin's vision.

Crystal teardrops, like pearls with broken threads, slipped from the corners of her eyes.

The fourth master originally closed his eyes and let her apply the medicine.

Until the warm temperature comes from the arm.

When I opened my eyes, I found that the woman in front of me was crying.

Strings of warm tears dripped down his arms.

"I don't feel pain, what do you have to cry about." The fourth master thought that she was crying because of his injury.

He simply withdrew his hand and smeared the medicine on his own.

Ruoyin herself has been injured and knows that the wound hurts when she applies the medicine.

But just now, when she applied the medicine to the fourth master, the fourth master didn't say a word, and his brows didn't wrinkle.

In Wu Sidao's mansion before, it was obvious that he was injured, but the first time he asked her if she was injured.

Now, in order not to worry her, he still said that the wound did not hurt.

People's hearts are made of flesh, and she sees them in her eyes and listens to them in her heart.

At this time, Ruoyin's mind was recalling more than one or two things.

It's every moment when the fourth master has protected her over the years.

Every overbearing love word.

The little tenderness hidden in every tsundere and coldness.

Those memories continue to haunt her heart.

Because the heart continued to beat, the heart that was frozen in the past and present lives seemed to open a small crack.

Blood flows slowly through that crack, gradually melting the outer layer of ice and warming the entire atrium.

At this moment, Ruoyin only felt warm in her heart, and her tears were even more turbulent.

She threw herself into his arms, rubbed in his arms, and muttered, "Yinzhen, you stupid pig hooves!" ”

Stupid pig's trotters?

Although the fourth master didn't understand what this meant.

But his gut told him that it wasn't a good thing.

He grabbed Ruoyin's arm and looked at her faintly.
