A piece of Japanese incense

Chapter 152 Assassinated

Zhi Yihe looked out of the carriage and saw the emperor, empress and other members of the royal family dressed in their best attire, appearing on a high platform. Their appearance aroused cheers and applause from the people, who knelt down one after another.

Fireworks began to bloom in the sky, and the colorful fireworks were like stars, lighting up the entire night sky.

Zhi Yihe and Yu Yi shuttled through the crowd, the sound of fireworks exploding and people's exclamations intertwined. Every step of movement was not completely under her control, but was pushed by the power of the surrounding crowds, sometimes leaning to the left, sometimes to the right.

Zhi Yihe's foot was stepped on. She just lowered her head and found that Yu Yi's fingers, which were originally tightly clasped together, had quietly loosened their grip. Her figure disappeared in the crowd in an instant.

She was a little depressed and felt that her day was not going well. It seemed that there were obstacles in everything she did.

"what!"

"Ahhhhh! Help!"

The crowd suddenly lost its order like a frightened swarm of ants. People's footsteps became hurried and chaotic, as if each individual had become a disordered molecule. They jumped, turned, and pushed, trying to find a gap to escape in the limited space.

"There are assassins!"

"It's murder! Help!"

Screams and cries for help rang out one after another. Zhiyi and his arms waved in the air, trying to grab something to stabilize their bodies, but there were more collisions and frictions between them.

Zhi Yihe was extremely anxious and called out Yuzhu and Yuyi's names loudly. She looked around and saw unfamiliar faces flashing by. She stopped and tried to find them in the noisy crowd.

A burst of hurried footsteps mixed with anxious panting approached quickly from behind. A powerful force suddenly hit Zhi Yihe's shoulder, like a wild bull charging in the crowd.

Zhi Yihe's body involuntarily leaned forward, staggered a few steps, and barely managed to steady herself. Turning back, she saw a hurried figure flash past her, and without even a word of apology, it disappeared into the bustling crowd.

She rubbed her shoulder which was a little sore from the collision, took a deep breath, waved her hand, and decided to walk home by herself.

After taking a few steps, she felt a sharp pain in her waist like a tide. She felt a burning force tearing deep in her abdomen. With every breath, the pain became more intense, as if countless sharp thorns were piercing through her muscles and internal organs.

She reached out and touched her waist, a warm current flowed between her fingers, she felt endless pain and fear. Her thoughts began to become confused, she didn't know what to do, beads of sweat oozed from her forehead in an instant, and her lips lost their color.

The scene before her eyes began to blur, the world seemed to be spinning, and all sounds became distant and distorted. Her knees bent involuntarily, and her body swayed a few times before finally failing. She fell forward limply as if her spine had been taken out, her consciousness lingering on the edge of darkness, about to fall into an endless coma.

"Zhi Yihe! Zhi Yihe!"

Zhi Yihe tried hard to open her heavy eyelids, silently repeating in her heart that she couldn't fall asleep, she still had to go home to see her grandfather...

"Hold on! I'll take you to see a doctor right now!"

Her uncle caught her steadily when she was about to faint, and called her name loudly, his voice full of anxiety and eagerness.

The world was spinning and I was dizzy. My mind and thoughts were getting more and more confused. Who on earth wanted to take my life...
