After becoming a concubine, she lived a miserable life every day.

Chapter 101 We can’t run away, let’s go together!

The palace maid lowered her head, carefully protecting the food box in her hands, and seemed not to have seen Qi You and the other two in front of her.

Qi You continued walking forward at a leisurely pace, just like before.

Xiao Yuanzi became alert instantly, quickened his pace, and the next moment, was walking side by side with his master on the right side.

A palace maid suddenly walked out of this deserted place, and they didn't even notice any footsteps before. After all, they have been practicing martial arts with Master Zhuying for more than three months, so they shouldn't have noticed anything. This is obviously wrong. Xiao Yuanzi's right hand hung down subconsciously, and a dagger given by his master was hidden in his sleeve.

Not only Xiao Yuanzi was alert, Fanghua was no less alert. She didn't even notice the palace maid walking over just now. There was almost no sound of footsteps. It was really strange. Moreover, she seemed to have not noticed herself and others yet?

Just as he was thinking this, the palace maid seemed to inadvertently look up and see them, and hurriedly lowered her head and saluted respectfully.

At this time, the three of them were only four or five meters away from the palace maid.

Qi You's eyes became darker and he rubbed his thumb and index finger against each other.

Normally in the palace, palace maids and eunuchs would bow when they met a noble person, and could only leave after the noble person left. This was the rule, so although Fanghua was a little wary, she also felt that there was nothing unusual about this behavior.

Just as the three men passed by the palace maid, the palace maid suddenly threw the food box in her hand towards Fanghua, and then exerted force with her legs, trying to kick Xiao Yuanzi aside.

As a result, Fanghua did move away from the scene to avoid the spilled scalding soup, but Xiao Yuanzi was not kicked. Instead, he dodged it. After all, he was prepared and his reaction was naturally much faster.

"Young Master, run! Help! Someone is killing...ah!" Fanghua shouted quickly, but before she could finish her words, she was knocked unconscious by something.

"Master, run!" Xiao Yuanzi grabbed his master's hand and started running towards Minghua Palace.

Qi You followed obediently, but before running he looked in Fang Hua's direction and saw that the palace maid had indeed caught up with him, and there was no one lurking around. After making sure that Fang Hua would not be in any danger, he ran straight towards Minghua Palace.

When the palace maid saw the two men running so fast, a cold look flashed across her eyes, and murderous intent filled her. In a flash, she was in front of Qi You and Xiao Yuanzi who were running, blocking their way.

"Run!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yuanzi immediately stood in front of Qi You and subconsciously began to shout at the top of his voice. As a result, he saw the palace maid throwing a hidden weapon. Xiao Yuanzi subconsciously wanted to dodge, but when he thought of his master still behind him, he stopped moving suddenly, with determination in his eyes.

There was no way to hide. This man was much stronger than them. He and his master were no match for him. He just hoped that Aunt Fanghua's scream just now would attract people's attention and that someone would find this place soon so that the master could be saved. If he died, he would die too, but the master should not die here so cowardly and quietly.

Just when Xiao Yuanzi was thinking about all these random things, his body was forcibly pulled to the side. He staggered and fell to the ground before he could feel the pain of the hidden weapon entering his body. Looking again, there was a small figure blocking in front of him. What was there for Xiao Yuanzi not to understand? It was his master who saved him!

So, the next second, Xiao Yuanzi reacted quickly and stood up, "Master, I will hold this man back, you run first!"

Xiao Yuanzi's face was unusually solemn. It seemed that this person was not someone they could deal with.

"You can't run away, let's go together!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanzi nodded and thought that the possibility of running away was slim, so he had to fight. So the next second he rushed forward first.

Seeing this, Qi You followed with a dagger in hand.

The palace maid was shocked for a long time before she realized that her hidden weapon was dodged by such a small child!? It was incredible.

Thinking of the threat from that man, the palace maid had to be on high alert. She originally thought that he was just a child and it shouldn't be difficult to deal with him, but she didn't expect that she had been wrong.

For a moment, the palace maid's eyes were filled with even more murderous intent, thinking that perhaps the people around her would be coming soon, and then she would not be able to kill the person in front of her, so she had to fight quickly and decisively.

He took out a dagger and walked forward, intending to kill each of them one by one, but he didn't expect that his attack would still fail.

Learned martial arts?

The maid was surprised. Why didn't that person tell her about this? Or did she not know about it?

Then, he quickly attacked the noble child with the dagger, but failed again! The child dodged quickly.

At this time, the palace maid had completely lost her contempt and looked at the two children in front of her with complicated eyes.

Although these two men are still young, because of their young age, their movements are extremely agile, so it is still very difficult for him to stab them.

Especially the child that the man specifically wanted to kill, his movements were extremely skillful, and he didn't look like a novice at all. It was just because he was young and didn't have that much strength, so those killing moves didn't even have 20% of their power. However, his movements were as slippery as a loach, making it impossible to catch him, and it was impossible to predict what his next move would be. What's more, there was another young eunuch covering him. Although the two of them didn't have very good skills, their angles were extremely tricky, and they were all killing moves.

The palace maid's face was as gloomy as water.

Just as the palace maid was thinking these things, Qi You and Xiao Yuanzi finally got a chance to catch their breath. They were both panting, in a very miserable state, their nerves were tense, and they looked at each other vigilantly. If they continued like this, they would both die. Xiao Yuanzi swallowed his saliva, and while the other party hadn't made any move, he made up his mind and said, "Master, you run first, I'll hold him back, otherwise we will both die." Xiao Yuanzi begged.

He really felt that the man today was not on the same level as the man who had assassinated his master before. This man obviously had real kung fu skills, while they were just two kids and did not have that much strength at all.

Qi You was not panicked at all, because his intuition told him that someone had just arrived, and they were fighting against the palace maid together.

But he didn't know who the person was. He didn't show any killing intention towards him and Xiao Yuanzi, but why didn't he come out to help? Was he waiting and watching? Who could it be? Qi You was thinking about it.

"I'm sorry, it's your fault for offending someone." The palace maid suddenly spoke, a fierce look flashed in her eyes, and then she held the dagger in her hand and attacked Qi You and Xiao Yuanzi fiercely.

The palace maid was serious this time. Unlike before, she was not casual at all. This time she left no room for maneuver and attacked with all her strength.

Qi You's expression was cold. He secretly glanced at the people who were watching secretly but didn't come out. He held something in one hand and pulled Xiao Yuanzi with the other hand, "Run!"

Xiao Yuanzi started running without saying a word, but they were caught up after only a few steps. Seeing that the dagger was very close to them, Xiao Yuanzi widened his eyes and used his last bit of strength to pull his master behind him, intending to use his body as the dagger.

"Master, run!" After saying that, Xiao Yuanzi suddenly closed his eyes, waiting for death to come.

There was a clang sound, which was the sound of the dagger falling to the ground, followed by a woman's muffled groan and the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground.

Xiao Yuanzi didn't feel any pain. When he heard the voice, he opened his eyes instantly and then was stunned for a rare moment.

Not far ahead, they saw a man wearing purple brocade clothes with dark patterns, a hair tie and a purple gold crown inlaid with jewels, with an evil look and a strong aura. He was standing with his hands behind his back, and his indifferent eyes were now fixed on them.
