Chapter 409: Unexpected Kiss
At first, Ning Chuyi didn't take it seriously.
But later, more and more people talked about it. There were many speculations.
Later, after he entered the officialdom, even his colleagues looked at him sideways.
For this matter, he asked his father many times, but each time he was told that he was his biological son.
Although Ning Guogong insisted that he was the biological son of him and Ning Guogong's wife.
But Ning Chuyi always doubted this.
Although his mother's attitude towards him changed later, it was not the attitude towards her biological son.
His mother was polite and distant to him, unlike her second brother, holding him in her hands for fear of dropping him, and holding him in her mouth for fear of melting.
Since the emperor saw him for the first time, he was surprised by his appearance and couldn't wait to summon his father to the palace.
No one knew what the two talked about.
After Ning Guogong returned home, he talked to him and told him not to pay attention to the rumors from the outside world.
But things didn't calm down as he thought.
The emperor would summon him to the palace from time to time, sometimes ordering him to do various tasks, and sometimes indirectly asking about his days in the Ningguo Mansion.
Because of the emperor's love for him and his special treatment, his life was full of speculation.
Later, as he grew older, his appearance became more and more like the emperor.
Several princes in the court mocked him openly and secretly, and the means against him were endless.
If he hadn't had some skills, the grass on his grave would have been unknown.
After growing up, Ning Chuyi had checked his life experience many times, but unfortunately he found nothing.
Although he guessed that he might be the emperor's child, he knew nothing about his biological mother. He never thought that his mother would be the Ning Chuchu who died young in the Ningguo Mansion.
Ning Chuyi and Ling Chu thought about their own thoughts, and returned to the second floor of the inn silently and went back to their rooms.
Knowing that the emperor would continue his journey to Xuanqing Temple tomorrow, Ling Chu washed up and went to bed immediately.
She was ready to set off at dawn.
But no one expected that a sudden change would disrupt the emperor's plan.
Yin hour.
It was pitch black, and you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
Ling Chu, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly woke up from her dream. She frowned and suddenly felt uneasy.
After thinking for a while, she sat up with the quilt and was about to calculate, but she didn't expect the system alarm to suddenly sound in her mind.
[Ding! ]
[Host, please pay attention! ]
[Assassin detected, level one alert! Level one alert! ]
Ling Chu's face changed slightly, and she saw from the system that a group of small black dots were surrounding the inn. She immediately summoned the shovel and the hammer, and quickly turned over and got out of bed.
She didn't even have time to put on her shoes and immediately rushed to the door, quickly pulled the bolt to open the door, and ran to Ning Chuyi's room.
She raised her hand and knocked on the wooden door, calling anxiously, "Sir Ning."
I thought Ning Chuyi's room was locked, but I didn't expect that the door would open as soon as I knocked.
In the inner room, Ning Chuyi, who was lying in bed with clothes on, heard the noise and immediately turned over.
Grabbed the long sword beside the pillow, and flashed to the door.
"What happened?"
"Sir, there are assassins, and the inn is surrounded."
"Don't be afraid." Ning Chuyi responded in a low voice, and immediately shouted, "Yin Sha, go and inform Commander Pang quickly."
Yin Sha, who was hiding in the dark, had just heard their movements and said quickly, "Yes."
Seeing the black spot getting closer and closer, Ling Chu was anxious, worried that it would be too late.
She suddenly had an idea, raised her hand and swung it, and the small hammer quickly hit the big shovel.
"Bang!" In the dark night, a metal collision sound suddenly came from the sky above the inn.
The loud noise woke up everyone in the inn.
The imperial guards who were patrolling the night didn't know what was going on, but fortunately they were well-trained and immediately drew their swords and began to be on guard.
The assassins had planned to kill the inn's residents by surprise while they were sleeping.
They didn't expect the other party to be so alert. When they heard the sudden loud noise, they knew that their plan of surprise attack had been exposed.
Although they were discovered, the assassins had to shoot their arrows.
They could only rush into the inn, pick up their swords and cut and kill anyone they saw.
Ning Chuyi stood on the second floor of the inn, lowered his eyes to look at the imperial guards who were meeting the enemy, and then looked back at Ling Chu.
Just as he was about to remind her to follow him closely, he found that she was only wearing a middle-length dress and was barefoot.
He immediately pulled her arm and took her back to the room, "Don't worry, put on your clothes first."
Ling Chu was shivering with cold when she calmed down after being too anxious before.
She didn't try to be brave, and hurriedly responded, then immediately went back to her room to put on her shoes and coat.
Although it didn't take long, she was too weak, and it was cold at night and she stepped on the ground barefoot.
Not only did she feel her hands and feet were cold, but even her blood seemed to be frozen.
Ling Chu regretted that she was still inexperienced. When she found the assassin, she could have used the small hammer to hit the big shovel.
In this way, she didn't have to rush to inform Lord Ning barefoot.
Ning Chuyi didn't know what she was thinking. Seeing that her face was pale from the cold, he raised his hand to take off his cloak and put it on her.
"You stay in the room, I'll go see the situation over there with the emperor."
In fact, Ning Chuyi knew that the emperor had brought so many imperial guards, and with Commander Pang, he was safer than Ling Chu.
But he was the emperor of a country after all, and he had to guard by his side.
People outside were fighting, and Ling Chu couldn't hide in the room alone.
"I'll go with you."
Ling Chu thought that she could command the shovel and hammer to kill the assassin more easily when she stood outside and looked down from above.
Ning Chuyi was thinking that there were many imperial guards around the emperor, and Ling Chu would be safer if she stayed by his side.
The two turned around and prepared to leave the room, but suddenly there was a sound of breaking air from the wooden window.
Ning Chuyi heard the sound and identified the location. His tall body flashed, and he protected Ling Chu in his arms, while raising his hand to strike.
Ding!
The long sword in Ning Chuyi's hand just hit the hidden arrow.
The second sound of breaking air was directed at the back of his head.
"My lord, be careful." At the critical moment, Ling Chu was so anxious that he stretched out his hand to pull.
Ning Chuyi was about to swing his sword again, but he was caught off guard and staggered forward by her.
At this time, Ling Chu was eagerly looking up at him.
One of them looked up, and the other looked down.
In a flash, their lips suddenly kissed each other.
At this time, the small hammer that was returning to defend just brushed over Ning Chuyi's head and shot down the hidden arrow with incredible accuracy.
Ling Chu stared, looking at the handsome face that was enlarged in front of him, and the whole person was stunned.
His mind was blank.
Ning Chuyi was not much better than her. Just now, when he stumbled, in order not to knock Ling Chu down, he subconsciously held her waist, and his right hand was still holding the long sword.
The softness against her thin lips made his heart tighten.
If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he almost couldn't help but want to pry open her pearly teeth.
But when he met her clear eyes, he could only restrain himself and straighten his waist.
