247, the blood-stained wedding night

There is no moon tonight, but there are stars in the sky. The sky in the front yard is still lit up by the brilliant fireworks almost as day. In the backyard, red lanterns hanging everywhere also make the yard bright. Under the firelight, a slender woman dressed in purple pinched the big knife that was about to be cut down with a jade-like plain hand. The assassin was also apparently stunned, glaring fiercely at the woman who suddenly appeared.

Nangong Mo smiled lightly in a low voice: "It's a little immoral for everyone else to come to make trouble on their wedding night, right?" ”

The knife she caught seemed to be pressed by a thousand boulders, and she couldn't move at all. The assassin jerked twice, but the woman opposite him looked as usual, as if his strength was just an ant shaking a tree. Knowing that the person in front of him was a master, the assassin cleanly gave up the long knife in his hand, revealing a sharp dagger in his sleeve, and stabbed towards Nangong Mo.

Nangong Mo took two steps to the side, casually threw the knife in his hand to Xiao Qianwei, raised his eyebrows and smiled: "It turns out that he is still an expert in short soldiers?" What she didn't say was that there were really few people in the world who were more proficient in skirmishing than her. The assassin didn't say a word, holding the dagger and stabbing at Nangong Mo. Nangong Mo had a faint smile on his lips, but he was not merciful at all. An unpretentious dagger slashed down his sleeve, and the brush stabbed towards the assassin with the cold wind. Today is the big day of the Yan Palace, and Nangong Mo didn't bring any weapons. It's just a dagger in hand. But that's enough.

The two of them only made three or five moves, and the assassin only felt a chill on his neck, and Nangong Mo's dagger had already slashed through his throat. And his dagger was still a full three inches away from Nangong Mo.

After Nangong Mo killed this person, he didn't do it anymore, but pushed it to Xiao Qianwei and Zhu Chuyu's side, and casually pushed the two of them down the pillar list under the eaves. The assassins in the courtyard were startled by Nangong Mo's sudden master, and the guards also reacted and immediately blocked the three of them, and at the same time pounced on the archers who were hiding in the shadows.

"You're not hurt, are you?" Nangong Mo turned around and asked.

Xiao Qianwei shook his head and looked at the courtyard next to him, "Cousin-in-law, third brother's side"

"Don't worry." Nangong Modao.

The courtyard next to it was quiet for a moment, and the next moment Wei Junmo appeared on the wall, glanced at the people fighting in the yard lightly, and fell to the three of them, "What's the matter?" ”

Xiao Qianwei was also at a loss, and shook his head, "Thank you cousin and sister-in-law for arriving in time, otherwise we and the third brother"

Nangong Mo looked at the assassins in the courtyard and thoughtfully, "These people, do they really want to kill you?" ”

Tonight is a big day for the Yanwang Mansion, although there are many guests, the vigilance will not be relaxed. Even if these people break in, with the Yanwang Mansion guarded by a cloud of masters, can they really achieve their goal? Of course, it was a strange thing for these Assassins to break in tonight. Presumably, there are many people who are going to be unlucky.

Guards from afar also arrived to join the warband, and the Assassins gradually fell below, and there were fewer and fewer people.

Xiao Qianjiong pulled Sun Yan'er, who had already removed her hijab, and walked in from outside the courtyard, and shouted loudly before she entered the door: "Second brother, are you all right?" ”

Seeing the corpses in a courtyard and the assassins and guards who were still fighting, Sun Yan'er's face was a little pale, but she didn't say anything, just quietly followed Xiao Qianjiong's side. Xiao Qianwei nodded and said, "It's okay, the third brother and younger siblings are fine." Xiao Qianjiong snorted lightly, pushed Sun Yan'er to Nangong Mo's side, and sneered: "I want to see what kind of person is so big enough to assassinate my son!" As he spoke, he was about to charge into the yard, but Wei Junmo grabbed his collar from behind. Xiao Qianjiong couldn't rush out, so he had to look back at his cousin, "Cousin, what are you doing?" ”

Wei Junmo glanced at him lightly, "Stay honest." ”

Xiao Qianjiong suddenly wilted, and stood obediently to the side as a mural.

Seeing that there were only two assassins left, Nangong Mo said in a deep voice: "Leave it alive!" ”

The guard was also stunned, and his subordinates paused. But he didn't want the two remaining assassins to see that there was no way to escape, so he simply bit down the poison hidden in his mouth, and a black blood stain flowed from the corner of his lips, and he fell to the ground with a bang.

Nangong Mo sighed a little helplessly, but there was no way to do it if the person was already dead.

Xiao Qianjiong was stunned, stepped forward and kicked the corpse on the ground, "What the hell is going on?" ”

Nangong Mo shrugged, this was sudden, how did she know what was going on? ”

"This king also wants to know what is going on!" King Yan's voice came from outside the courtyard, and when everyone turned around, they saw King Yan walking in from outside with a gloomy face. The front was still feasting, and Princess Yan and Princess Changping stayed in front and didn't know what was going on in the back. King Yan was followed only by the entourage of guards around him and Chen Yu and Xue Zhen, who had rushed back to attend the wedding, but Zhu Hong was now guarding the border and could not rush back to attend the wedding.

King Yan was obviously in a very bad mood, and whoever entered the assassin mansion on his son's wedding night couldn't be in a good mood.

"Uncle."

"Father."

King Yan snorted lightly and looked at his two sons, "Are you all right?" ”

Xiao Qianwei and Xiao Qianjiong hurriedly shook their heads, King Yan nodded, his expression was slightly gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: "Clean up first, let them rest first." The two of you will come to the study with Qing Xing Flawless in a moment. ”

"Yes, Father." The two replied respectfully. Sun Yan'er's face is still a little pale, and her expression is quite ordinary. Zhu Chuyu listened to King Yan's words, and couldn't help but glance at Nangong Mo, and didn't say anything and lowered his head slightly.

Only then did King Yan turn around and leave, Chen Yu and Xue Zhen looked at the chaotic courtyard, shook their heads and followed. I'm afraid it's going to be troublesome.

"Yan'er?" Nangong Mo looked sideways at Sun Yan and called softly. Sun Yan'er raised her head and smiled at her reluctantly. For a lady who has been raised in a precious family since childhood

For the precious ladies and gentlemen, this wedding night is definitely too surprising. Sun Yan'er can still hold on to it without crying, falling down or throwing up, which is already quite good.

Nangong Mo sighed slightly, and said softly: "I'll ask the girl to bring you a bowl of soothing soup in a while." ”

"Thank you, cousin." Sun Yan'er said in a low voice.

Nangong Mo smiled and said, "Thank you for your efforts?" Qianjiong, you can take Yan'er back first. Xiao Qianjiong then remembered that his newly married daughter-in-law was a young lady who was different from the girl in Youzhou, scratched her head with some distress, and nodded again and again after listening to Nangong Mo's words. glanced at Sun Yan'er and said with a little embarrassment: "Then let's go back first." ”

"Yes." Sun Yan'er nodded and followed Xiao Qianjiong to the outside of the courtyard. Xiao Qianjiong saw her trembling when she walked, so she simply took her hand and walked outside. Nangong Mo looked straight and sighed, are the personalities of these two people really suitable?

Nangong Mo turned around and nodded to Xiao Qianwei and the two of them, "Let's go first, you guys can also watch it." The lord of Shanjia is frightened, and it is better to drink some soothing soup as well. Xiao Qianwei nodded and said, "Thank you, cousin-in-law." Nangong Mo smiled lightly, and was about to speak, and there was a sharp call from Mrs. Gao Yibo outside the courtyard.

"Yu'er! Yu'er"

Nangong Mo frowned, Mrs. Gao Yibo should be with her daughters to enjoy the fireworks at this time, how could she know that something happened here, and she came so quickly?

Mrs. Gao Yibo was supported by several girls and stumbled into the courtyard. Seeing the corpses in this place, he suddenly screamed in fright, "What's going on?!" ”

"Mother." Zhu Chuyu hurriedly greeted him, "Why are you here?" Mrs. Gao Yibo's face turned pale, and she grabbed Zhu Chuyu's hand and said, "Mother heard that there were assassins in the courtyard here, so I came over." Yu'er, are you alright? Zhu Chuyu frowned, how could it be so coincidental that her mother heard the news that there was an assassin in the backyard? Zhu Chuyu naturally knew that the front yard was very noisy at this time, except for these masters, the ladies in the front yard were afraid that they would not be able to hear the movement behind them at all.

"Mother, who are you listening to?" Zhu Chuyu lowered his eyes and asked softly.

Mrs. Gao Yibo said: "It's the girl who is married next to you, I feel very bored, I want to walk in the garden, and I happened to run into her and ran out for help." ”

Several people present glanced at each other, this is not reasonable at all! From here to the garden in the front yard there are various two courtyards, an inner garden and an outer courtyard. If that girl really ran out of here during the assassin scuffle, she wouldn't be able to reach the front yard before she could be stopped. How could he happen to run into Mrs. Gao Yibo who was scattered in the garden. If what Mrs. Gao Yibo said is true, it means that someone deliberately lured her here!

"Dignified Yan Wangfu, how can there be assassins!" Mrs. Gao Yibo pulled her daughter tightly, glared at the three people standing behind, and said, "No! Yu'er, you can't continue to stay in Yanwang's Mansion. They must be trying to kill you! ”

As soon as these words came out, Xiao Qianwei's face suddenly sank, and he said in a deep voice: "Mrs. Gao Yibo, be cautious!" ”

Mrs. Gao Yibo realized that she was not wrong, and gritted her teeth and said: "Your Yanwang Mansion has been reluctant to this marriage from the beginning, do you know if you deliberately wanted to kill Yu'er?" ”

"Mother!" Zhu Chuyu shouted loudly, seeing the blank appearance of the people in Gao Yibo's Mansion, he sighed helplessly in his heart, gritted his teeth and said, "Don't talk nonsense, how could Yanwangfu do such a thing?" She knew that her biological mother had never been smart, but now that she was so open-mouthed, it gave her a huge headache. Don't say that today's thing should have nothing to do with Yan Wangfu, even if it is really Yanwang Mansion, you can't say it in front of others.

Xiao Qianwei's face was gloomy, and he sneered: "It turns out that Gao Yibo's Mansion treats Yanwang Mansion like this, in this case, what is the Lord of Shanjia still marrying?" Aren't you afraid of being tortured to death in the Yan Wangfu? ”

Zhu Chuyu's face turned slightly pale, and he bit his lip and said in a low voice: "My mother was just scared and couldn't hold her mouth for a while, please don't blame the king of the county." "Xiao Qianwei has been canonized as the king of Shunyi County, and Zhu Chuyu is also known as the king of the county. In this situation, it would be a little embarrassing to call the husband.

Xiao Qianwei's face changed, and he didn't speak.

Nangong Mo rubbed his eyebrows and raised his eyes to look at Wei Junmo. Wei Junmo was also looking down at her, and when he met her helpless eyes, a faint smile flashed under Wei Gongzi's eyes. Raising his head, Wei Junmo said indifferently to the people of Gao Yibo's mansion: "Mrs. Gao Yibo, it was smooth to come all the way from the outer courtyard. ”

A trace of doubt flashed in Mrs. Gao Yibo's eyes, obviously not understanding the meaning of Wei Junmo's words. Zhu Chuyu and Xiao Qianwei understood, Zhu Chuyu patted Mrs. Gao Yibo's hand and persuaded softly: "Mother, you go back first." Let's not talk about things here. ”

"But," Mrs. Gao Yibo was obviously still not at ease.

Zhu Chuyu sighed, looking at Mrs. Gao Yibo's expression with a hint of pleading. Mrs. Gao Yibo was stunned, but finally nodded, and let Zhu Chuyu order the girl next to her to send her out.

Seeing that there was nothing to do, Nangong Mo also pulled Wei Junmo to turn around and say goodbye.

Back in the new house, only Zhu Chuyu and Xiao Qianwei were left in the palatial new house. In the courtyard outside the door, the guards of the Yan Wang's Mansion were cleaning up the corpses in the courtyard, and even in the new house, they could still smell a faint smell of blood.

Zhu Chuyu looked at Xiao Qianwei and said softly: "Husband, my mother just now, please don't be surprised." ”

Looking at the beautiful and melancholy woman under the candlelight, Xiao Qianwei's expression softened a little, and said lightly: "Those words are just what I heard, if they reach the ears of my father and mother" Zhu Chuyu smiled on his lips and nodded: "I know, it's my mother who is wrong this time." It will never be like this in the future, I have never thought about Yanwangfu like this. I know that this marriage is not reluctant."

"It's already here, it doesn't have to

At this point, there is no need to say more. Xiao Qianwei waved his hand and said indifferently.

Zhu Chuyu nodded and said: "In the future, the concubine will definitely be filial to her in-laws, love her younger brothers and sisters, and be a good wife." ”

Xiao Qianwei didn't say anything more, just said, "You can rest for a while and eat something." I still have something. ”

"Yes, send my husband." Zhu Chuyu didn't ask too much, bowed his head slightly, and looked respectful. Xiao Qianwei turned around and walked out, and soon the sound of his departing footsteps could be heard outside the door.

Looking at the empty new house and the flickering red candles in front of him, the smile on Zhu Chuyu's original face with a faint smile gradually faded, and it became a little more cold and fierce.

In the study, King Yan and Xue Zhen and Chen Yu were sitting and talking, and when they saw Nangong Mo and the four of them coming in, they stopped and looked up at the four of them and asked, "What are the clues?" ”

Xiao Qianjiong turned his head sideways to look at Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo, Xiao Qianwei lowered his eyes, and said ashamedly: "My son is incompetent, not yet" Chen Yu smiled: "Lord Wang, how long has it been?" Nothing strange about it. King Yan looked at Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo, "Qingxing, flawless, can the identity of those assassins be confirmed?" ”

Wei Junmo frowned slightly and said, "It's a well-trained killer, but it's hard to say whose person it is." Although they were the first to suspect Xiao Qianye, there was no evidence. Moreover, it is not impossible to do so.

King Yan's expression was cold, and he sneered: "The dignified Yan Wang's Mansion can actually let so many assassins break into the backyard and no one is aware of it. This king is probably tired of seeing these people! "The Yanwang Mansion is heavily guarded, if there is no internal thief, those assassins can break into the backyard so smoothly. And he accurately touched the courtyard of the newcomer, and the people present were afraid that no one would believe it.

Chen Yu and Xue Zhen's expressions were also a little solemn, but Chen Yu spoke first: "Lord Wang, you mean"

King Yan snorted coldly and said, "What else is there to say?" It's not a straightforward thing. Very good! It seems that this king has been too merciful in the past few years! Give Ben Wang Zai a careful check, and no one can be missed. This king wants to see how many people have died in these years! ”

"Yes, lord." Knowing that King Yan was very angry, Chen Yu and the others hurriedly responded. In fact, to track down these things in the palace, there is no need for them to interfere.

vented his anger, and King Yan's expression eased a little. He sat down again, tapped the chair's hand, and pondered, "Do you think this incident is the ghost of our emperor?" Xue Zhen was a little puzzled, "Emperor? The marriage was given by himself, what did he do when he made such a play? In case the bride is really killed, isn't this marriage given for nothing? ”

King Yan smiled and glanced at Xue Zhen angrily. Chen Yu said with a smile: "That's not necessarily, the Yanwang Mansion is heavily guarded, and the probability of success is not high." Unless we don't care whether we succeed or not, if this matter is planted on our heads, there will always be a crime of contempt for the holy will and the yang and the yin, right? It's just that this little thing naturally doesn't matter, I'm afraid that too many things will be detrimental to the reputation of the prince. What Chen Yu didn't say was that the emperor found an excuse to make Xiao Qianwei and Xiao Qianjiong the kings of the county, and the purpose was only afraid that he would reach more than half of it. Although you can be crowned a king without marriage, it is not so justifiable, and it is easy to associate a lot of things. Now taking advantage of the wedding of the two sons, even if the three brothers of the Yan Wangfu will become a pot of porridge in the future, no one can say that Xiao Qianye is nothing. This idea was definitely not something that Xiao Qianye came up with on his own. At first glance, it is those sour tricks.

Nangong Mo raised his eyebrows and said, "It is also possible that someone wants to blame Xiao Qianye." ”

Everyone looked at Nangong Mo in unison, Chen Yu touched his chin and nodded: "Although, it is indeed possible." But what good is it for this person to stir up the relationship between the emperor and the prince? Can there really be such a person who can save zĂ i? "If there is, the identity of this person is not simple. At the very least, he should be a prince like King Yan, and he is also a prince with heavy troops. But Chen Yu went through the princes with heavy troops in his memory one by one, and he didn't see which one seemed to be a person who would do such a thing.

Nangong Mo blinked, "That's what I said." "It's not that she thinks any prince doesn't want to have a peaceful birthday. But there is also a Gong Yuchen who doesn't know why he has never wanted to live a peaceful life. A few days ago, when I saw Gong Yuchen appear in Beiyuan, Nangong Mo always felt that he had a bad feeling.

Where was Chen Yu so easily fooled by her, thought for a while, and said, "What did the young lady say, Beiyuan?" ”

Nangong Mo thought about it, although it is not accurate, it is not wrong, right? Nodding slightly.

Chen Yu said: "Does the Northern Yuan barbarian have this brain? ”
