Chapter 1 Ambush and narrow road encounter

On the border of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, behind a steep mountain peak, one or two hundred people were quietly ambushed, all wearing hats, scimitars, and uniformly dressed in gray cloth clothes.

The momentum of these gray men is extraordinary, and it is clear that they are carrying out a secret mission in an organized and planned manner.

It turned out that these gray-clothed people were from the Western Qin Kingdom and belonged to a dark organization called Xifeng Tower. The West Wind Building is divided into four branches, of which Perak Pavilion is the leanest fourth branch.

In order to complete this mission, the West Wind Tower can be said to have spared no effort and sent the fourth branch to let all the personnel of the Perak Pavilion pour out their bags and secretly cross the border into the Xuanyuan Dynasty, preparing to ambush a convoy to welcome relatives.

The leader of these gray men was a woman.

The woman seemed to prefer bright red colors, and her clothes and services were all red, and she wore a wide dark red cloak on her shoulders, and a big red satin bodysuit was faintly revealed inside the cloak.

The woman in red had a beautiful face, about seventeen years old, with her left hand on her waist and her right hand holding a strong bow hanging diagonally from her waist.

Archery is one of the most skilled skills of the woman in red in various martial arts, in addition to the strong bow she wears, she also hides a crossbow in her sleeve, whether it is a long feather arrow or a short sleeve arrow, when it is fired, it is a hundred shots.

The breeze blew the cloak of the woman in red, and the corners of her clothes fluttered slowly in the wind.

She stood on a large bluestone halfway up the mountainside, her eyebrows slightly raised, her keen eyes looking ahead, and her eyes radiated a bit of heroism.

"Is there any news from the outpost?"

The woman in red looked up and saw the morning sun erupting from the top of the mountain, rising, and the golden sunlight shining on her red clothes was very beautiful.

However, the woman in red was not in the mood to comprehend these beautiful scenery, but saw the sunrise and calculated the time, realizing that the gray-clothed people she led had been waiting for a day and a night, but the person who was waiting for did not show up for a long time, and did not know what was wrong, so she asked with some doubts.

A gray-clothed man standing behind the woman in red hurriedly replied: "Report to the boss, I just received a report, there are about thirty people in the convoy to welcome relatives, and there are still dozens of miles away from here. ”

"Excellent! Spread the word, so that everyone on the top of the mountain is ready to attack. ”

"Yes. The rolling wood and thunder stones on the top of the mountain are all set up properly, just waiting for the boss to give an order. The man in gray seemed to be very sure.

The woman in red nodded, her eyes became sharp, and she wondered in her heart: It was the first time that she led the people from the Thunderbolt Pavilion of the West Wind Building to go abroad to carry out a mission, and I wonder if everything will go well at the critical moment later?

Xifeng Lou is a time-honored dark organization in the Western Qin State, specializing in some little-known covert activities in private, and has recently been bought by the imperial court and has become a royal group.

The woman in red was none other than Qin Xingyi, the owner of the Thunderbolt Pavilion of the West Wind Building.

Qin Xingyi's true identity has another secret. She was originally a princess of the Western Qin Kingdom, but she was separated from her family due to the war when she was a child, lost to the people, and was adopted by the owner of the West Wind Building.

The owner of the West Wind Mansion is cunning, black and bold, and has strong means. Therefore, Qin Xingyi has practiced extraordinary martial arts with her adoptive father since she was a child, is good at strategy, and has developed a vigorous and resolute character.

It's the height of summer.

This day is a good weather, the sun is like fire, the bright sun shines down from the sky, a hot current rushes to the face, look at the mountain, only feel the light is dazzling, and the four fields are white.

Qin Xingyi stomped on a pair of red pony boots on her feet, built a sunshade pergola with her palms, and tried her best to look into the distance, faintly finding that there was dust and smoke floating more than ten miles away.

Are those people finally here? Qin Xingyi secretly thought: It was in vain that he took more than a hundred people to wait on the top of the mountain for a day and night, and they finally appeared.

Qin Xingyi was a little excited and a little nervous, the most important thing was that she was about to meet an old man, for four years, the shadow of this old man had been hidden in her heart and could not be extinguished.

Qin Xingyi couldn't help but reach into her arms and take out a portrait, unfold it and take a look, although the portrait depicted a handsome young man lifelike, but her eyes were full of anger.

That painting was painted by Qin Xingyi from memory four years ago, once upon a time, she faced the portrait of the three princes every day and turned over and over, unable to sleep at night, hateful, and did not think that the change that happened back then was a misunderstanding.

I can finally avenge myself! Qin Xingyi gritted his teeth, and had already imprinted the appearance of this enemy in his mind in his heart, but he didn't know if the enemy's appearance would change a little after four years, after all, he had grown up to be a sixteen-year-old boy in his prime.

Who is the person Qin Xingyi hates?

That person's name is Xuanyuan Mingyu, as the third prince of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, he is the person Qin Xingyi set up an ambush to arrest this time.

As the saying goes: the road is narrow.

Qin Xingyi was angry and resentful of Xuanyuan Mingyu for four years, and today by chance, seeing that the enemy had walked into the ambush circle, he was about to fall into the palm of his hand.

Wrongdoer, this is sent to the door by yourself, the sheep is in the mouth of the tiger, no wonder others.

The corners of Qin Xingyi's mouth hooked up a cold smile, her cold face suddenly appeared unbelievably dark, and a pair of pink fists couldn't help clenching, as if she had firmly grasped the third prince Xuanyuan Mingyu in the palm of her hand.

Qin Xingyi's hatred for the three princes cannot be blamed, because she was found back to the palace by her father a few months ago, and soon, her father was assassinated, and all the clues to the murder all point to the third prince Xuanyuan Mingyu, and the new hatred and old hatred cannot be resolved.

In the past few months, Qin Xingyi hated Xuanyuan Mingyu for killing his father, and at the same time, because Xuanyuan Mingyu had a past incident with him four years ago, it was even more difficult for him to forget.

Qin Xingyi was determined to avenge his father, determined to usurp the great fortune of the Xuanyuan Dynasty, and devoted himself to planning every day, studying all the imperial relatives of the Xuanyuan Dynasty one by one, and setting up the next set of serial plans with his father-in-law, and decided to start with the third prince Xuanyuan Mingyu.

The new emperor Qin Yuchen ascended the throne and was Qin Xingyi's eldest brother, who was ambitious and appreciated Qin Xingyi's plan to annex the Xuanyuan Dynasty.

Qin Xingyi once appeared in the peak of scenery, and was given the title of "Yunan Eldest Princess" by the new emperor, and ordered Qin Xingyi to personally command the implementation of this set of serial plans, and gave Xifeng Lou 10,000 taels of gold to assist in the action.

Qin Xingyi didn't expect that Brother Wang would value himself so much, and gave him a secret decree and a gold medal, and he could mobilize the border guards at any time, and the power he held was not trivial, of course, he was grateful to Dade and was eager to start implementing the serial plan.

The first step of the serial plan is to capture Xuanyuan Mingyu, the third prince of the Xuanyuan Dynasty.

Qin Xingyi had already imagined dozens of times in her heart how she captured the scene when she captured the third prince, and the scene when the third prince succumbed to his prestige and was able to take revenge.

Imagination is illusory after all, and it is only real if you catch people in the palm of your hand. Now that it's a matter of course, it looks like the first step of the plan is about to succeed nine times out of ten.

Qin Xingyi squinted his eyes and looked at a cloud of dust rolling in the distance, and a horse team of more than twenty people appeared in the dust, and the horse team surrounded a luxury carriage and drove at lightning speed.

Qin Xingyi waved his hand and ordered the people in the dark part of the West Building to prepare for interception, his eyes full of confidence.

It's close! The team approached in an instant!

Qin Xingyi couldn't help but get a little excited, no matter what, she couldn't make a mistake. This was the beginning of a chain of plans conceived by himself, and if he made a mistake in the raid, it would affect his mood and status in the eyes of his father.

The caravan quickly came to the foot of the mountain, but suddenly stopped at the corner of the pass.

Did they find out?

Qin Xingyi knew that she could only wait patiently at present, calmly put away the portrait of the brocade axis, and thought: Third prince, you can't escape, everything is in the master's plan.

There was a reason why the horse team stayed at the foot of the mountain for a long time, because Xuanyuan Mingyu, the third prince who was riding in the front, suddenly felt discomfort in his abdomen, his whole body was weak, and he fell off the horse.

Xuanyuan Mingyu was also surprised, he didn't eat anything else in the morning, he just drank a glass of Second Emperor Uncle's send-off wine, could it be that there was something strange in this cup of wine? It's impossible, Uncle Erhuang has always loved and cared for himself, and he is not the kind of person who conspires and calculates.

After a while, Xuanyuan Mingyu felt that the abdominal pain had subsided, and he didn't dare to ride a horse anymore, so he sat in the carriage and ordered the horse team to go on the road.

Qin Xingyi saw that the horse team paused for a long time before entering the Panshan Road, and finally slowly turned into the Panshan Road, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that it was just a false alarm just now.

The moment of truth has come!

Qin Xingyi's eyes widened, she held her breath, leaned down and hid behind the big bluestone, stared at the carriage and entered the ambush circle, and decisively ordered to move.

It was also the first time for the people of Xifeng Tower to go abroad on a mission, and it was a young woman who gave the order, but they trusted the boss and felt very sure in their hearts, because the disparity between the enemy and us in numbers was too great, and they used ambush and sneak attacks, so they all thought that there was nothing to worry about.

"Ready, hands!"

With Qin Xingyi's order, the people of Xifeng Tower immediately took action, pushing down the rolling wood and rocks on the top of the mountain with one blow, and smashed them into the crooked and narrow mountain road below.

Suddenly attacked, the cavalry team on the mountain road was caught off guard, and they were smashed off their horses screaming.

Qin Xingyi squinted her eyes and saw that the curtain of the carriage door of the luxury carriage rushing to the front suddenly rose, and a young man covered his stomach with one hand, lifted the curtain with the other, turned around and was about to jump out of the carriage.

"Well, the third prince, where are you fleeing?"

Qin Xingyi sneered in her heart, screamed secretly, raised her hand and took off a strong bow worn at her waist, put on a sharp arrow, and shot it out with a "whoosh".

However, the change was too fast, and before Qin Xingyi could see clearly whether the arrow had hit the third prince, he saw that the carriage was hit by a boulder that fell from the top of the mountain, making a "snoring" sound.

When the driver saw that something was wrong, he jumped out of the carriage with his hands and feet, and watched the whole carriage tumble down the hill in a puff of smoke.
