Chapter 222: A Ferocious Serial Assassination

"So that's the case, no wonder!" Shouxin also felt that it was too strange that he could be trapped like this, Yi Xun was busy and fed half a bowl of soup, and Shouxin slept peacefully.

Yi Xun ate something casually to fill his stomach, and he was afraid of disturbing his rest, so he didn't ask Xiao Er to clean up, but cleaned up and sent it to the door by himself, and let Du Qingcang at the door serve it again. As a result, this Du Qingcang not only became a janitor, but also had to be a miscellaneous man!

He was a little depressed, and even more strange Yi Xun's attitude, and said in his heart: Could it be that Prince Xun really loves this guard to such an extent? However, didn't the feather guard say that he was ugly, for fear of scaring others? The taste of Prince Xun is really heavy.

In any case, Du Qingcang became more and more curious about Shouxin, wondering what merits she had to make Prince Xun so favored.

It was only after about a dozen waves of assassinations that it stopped. These dozen waves of assassins became more and more powerful, resulting in heavy losses for their group, however, each wave of assassins was eliminated, and not a single one was left alive. After all, at the moment of life and death, they no longer had the energy to get people to the point where they had no power to fight back, but they were still alive.

The injuries before Shouxin also healed quickly, but every time there will be new injuries. Although they are all minor injuries, they are enough to make Yi Xun crazy. Therefore, this originally very indifferent prince has not been in a good temper recently, and his face is gloomy all day long, which makes people tremble when they look at it.

Keeping one's heart is to have no other people's worries, and to eat and drink well every day. However, she was a little flattered by Yi Xun's excessive worries. Even Yi Xun said that if an assassin came again, let her hide behind and let him, the prince, come to hostile him. Isn't that a joke?

Therefore, Shouxin sternly refused. Even though she didn't like the work of the Dark Guard and the Bright Guard, she understood the truth of being a monk for a day and hitting the clock for a day. In this kind of feudal society, if one of her guards is protected by the prince, I believe that she will not have a good life in the future.

The master couldn't spare her the first one, even if the master loved himself very much, but he cared more about Yi Xun and the emperor! This is the result of the loyalty and servility of the ancient people, which cannot be changed in any way.

And himself, his current mission is to protect Yi Xun.

Yi Xun was also very helpless about this, although he wanted to protect his heart by himself, but he also knew that this was not realistic. In the end, he can only continue to be protected by Shouxin. Therefore, the whole person's face is becoming more and more ugly, and his temper is becoming less and less calm.

The first to be affected was Du Qingcang, the little general, who was the person with the highest position in the wedding team this time, except for Yi Xun.

Seeing that when Shouxin was hostile to the assassin today, a bloody mark was drawn on the back of his hand by a hidden weapon, and he wanted to go crazy. These short-sighted assassins, if they have a plan that is a little more accurate, why can't all the damage reach him at all as if it has been absorbed by Shouxin?

After killing all the Assassins, all of them rested in place and bandaged the wounded soldiers.

Yi Xun looked at Du Qing, who didn't have the slightest scars on his body, and didn't fight anywhere. "General Du!" After he finished bandaging Shouxin's wound, he called out in a gloomy voice.

"Yes, Lord Wang!" Du Qingcang stubbornly walked to the front of Yi Xun, praying in his heart that the prince would never blame the injured Yu guards on his head.

It's just that his prayers are of no avail.

"General Du, I didn't expect your martial arts to be so poor, and you let the assassins enter the king's side again and again. This king has been frightened a lot along the way! Yi Xun didn't mention Shouxin's injury, but said that Du Qingcang let the assassin get close to him. Actually, that's right, if the Assassin didn't get close, how could Shouxin be hurt?

"The lower official is guilty, please punish the prince!" Du Qingcang gritted his teeth, and knelt on the ground to plead guilty. In fact, he was still depressed! This wave of assassins seems to be endless, he is going to be exhausted, can't he be allowed to rest? Moreover, he has also lost a lot of soldiers, and his heart is hurting! These soldiers had all been on the battlefield with him, and their feelings were different from those of the others.

"Hmph, what's the use of chastizing you? If you let the Assassins come to this king again in the future, you will come to see you. ”

"......" Du Qingcang was speechless for a while, and said in his heart, this prince won't really want to kill himself! But the assassin is fierce, and he can't do anything when the time comes! Besides, there's no Yu guard!

After thinking about it, Du Qingcang finally realized the true meaning, that is, he could no longer let the Yu guards be injured, otherwise his head would really not be saved.

I don't know if God took pity on Du Qingcang or what, after that, the assassin really didn't come again. And their march was much faster, and seeing that they could reach the imperial city in three more days, they really couldn't afford to toss.

Fortunately, Murong Yan also sent someone to answer it, and issued a holy decree to thoroughly investigate this assassination, and once it is clear, it will definitely be severely punished.

It's just that this time, Murong Yan actually asked Murong Shengpeng to answer and investigate thoroughly, which made many people puzzled.

This Murong Shengpeng has always been Murong Shengwei's follower, when did the emperor pay attention to him alone? And it's still to find out about the prince, which has to make people think deeply!

Even Wen Yao couldn't figure it out, and she hadn't received any news before, she thought that Murong Shengpeng was sick at home and couldn't even get out of bed!

The last time Murong Shengpeng entered the palace, he didn't come. After that, Murong Shengwei and Murong Shengxin took Wen Yao's order and took the imperial doctor to visit Murong Shengpeng. This look, Murong Shengpeng is really sick, and he is not lightly ill, so he can only recuperate in the house, and it is best not to even get out of bed.

Wen Yao, who was scheming, immediately felt that it was inappropriate to let Murong Shengpeng go to investigate this matter thoroughly, so he hurriedly went to the imperial study to find Murong Yan!

When Murong Yan heard the rumor that Wen Yao was coming to see him, he couldn't help but sneer, but he still let Wen Yao in. "Is there something wrong with the queen looking for me?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that you are going to send Sheng Peng to greet Prince Xun, but Sheng Peng's child is not in good health, and he is still sick in bed!" After Wen Yao saluted, he directly explained his intentions, for fear that it would be too late, and Murong Shengpeng would set off.

"You don't need to worry, the old fifteen is already fine now."

"Okay?" Wen Yao raised her eyebrows, when was it okay? Why doesn't her mother-in-law know?

Murong Yan looked at Wen Yao with a pair of sharp eyes, and Wen Yao hurriedly lowered her head to hide her emotions. "It's okay, it's okay, this kid doesn't let people talk to the concubine, the concubine is worried from the bottom of her heart!"

Murong Yan watched Wen Yao act and didn't speak again. Wen Yao values Murong Shengwei and spoils Murong Shengxin. Murong Yan knew all this, but Wen Yao ignored Murong Shengpeng's son, her cold eyes just now, Murong Yan also saw it clearly, knowing that Wen Yao was not really worried about Murong Shengpeng's son.

It seems that Murong Shengpeng's choice is correct.

"Well, I've made a decree on this matter, and I can't ignore it!"

"Yes, the concubine knows." Wen Yao secretly scolded Murong Shengpeng, an ignorant son, and was more uneasy in her heart. For some reason, she had become very uneasy since the last time she learned that Yi Xun had captured an assassin. Especially now that she knew that Murong Shengpeng was sent to investigate this matter, she was already extremely uneasy.

"Just kneel if it's okay!" Murong Yan was too lazy to talk nonsense with Wen Yao, so he ordered the expulsion.

"Yes...... Your Majesty, is it okay to have dinner in the palace of the concubines tonight? Kaori made the emperor's favorite crispy pork knuckle with her own hands. ”

"Oh? Kaori has a heart. Let Kaori send it over, I still have something to deal with. "Last time, Murong Yan had already pampered Kaori, but he didn't give her any identity, for the time being, Kaori was still Wen Yao's maidservant.

"Yes!" Wen Yao almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth, obviously giving Xiangzhi to Murong Yan, so that Murong Yan could go to her palace a few more times, even if she didn't spoil her, she could consolidate her position to some extent. Unexpectedly, Murong Yan actually asked Kaori to come to the imperial study? Phew, what is her Kaori identity? It's just a little cheap hoof, is she worthy?

It's just that no matter whether he is worthy or not, Murong Yan has already spoken.

A quarter of an hour later, before Wen Yao's news of Murong Shengpeng arrived, Murong Shengpeng had already set off with his men.

And Yi Xun was also very surprised when they saw Murong Shengpeng. I really didn't expect that it would be this usual transparent person Murong Shengpeng who came to greet him.

Murong Shengpeng was smiling at the moment, among the three princes from Wen Yao, his facial features were the most unlike Wen Yao. "Thirteen Emperor Brothers."

Yi Xun still had a gloomy face, and just nodded to Murong Shengpeng. Because, when the back of Shouxin's hand was scratched by a hidden weapon that day, he was actually poisoned. This is a chronic poison, and it doesn't have an immediate effect after cutting the back of the hand, so there is no slightest sign of poisoning, so that Yi Xun is not aware of it at all. It wasn't until an hour later that Shouxin fainted, and let the accompanying imperial doctor come to see it, only to know that Shouxin had been poisoned.

Because Shouxin is a person who practices martial arts, he protects his heart in time, so this poison does not have to worry about life. But despite this, Yi Xun was also scared into a cold sweat, and he hated to slash himself with one palm. Why didn't you be careful at that time and check the pulse of Shouxin? He only saw that it was a small wound at the time, so he didn't think much about it, and at that time he thought about attacking Du Qingcang, so that Du Qingcang could protect his heart a little in the future. Who would have thought that there would be such a consequence! Now, all you need to do is return to the Imperial City right away, find a few herbs needed for detoxification, and completely detoxify Shouxin.

Murong Shengpeng didn't care too much about Yi Xun's attitude, after all, Yi Xun and Murong Shengwei could be said to have a complete falling out, and seeing his enthusiasm can be regarded as a ghost! Moreover, this series of assassinations, Murong Shengpeng also suspected that Murong Shengwei or Wen Yao did it. Then, he may also be considered one of the participants by Yi Xun.

"Brother Thirteen, my father is very worried about your safety, so he asked his younger brother to bring someone to greet you. Are you okay? Murong Shengpeng had already secretly looked at Yi Xun, and was very surprised to see that he was not injured in the slightest. This assassination can be said to have been bloody, and those who reported to Murong Yan have been assassinated by more than a dozen masters. That's why Murong Yan was very worried, for fear that Yi Xun would be the slightest bit inappropriate or injured. It's just that I didn't expect Yi Xun to ride on a horse.
