156. Failed assassination
Gong Yuchen is a person who can afford to put it down, since he said that he wants to quit this game and stop playing, there will be no drag. The people of the Water Pavilion all withdrew from the territory of Lingzhou at an extremely fast speed, and Cao Wu was still counting on the Water Pavilion Lord to help him take back a city. Without the secret support and advice of the Water Pavilion, Cao Wu would naturally be even more devastated.
On the edge of an inconspicuous mountain forest on the border of Lingzhou, Gong Yuchen sat in the carriage and closed his eyes to recuperate. Outside the carriage, a guard asked with some concern, "Pavilion Master, how are you?" β
Gong Yuchen opened his eyes, and just as he was about to speak, a few wisps of blood spilled from his lips. He didn't care about wiping it casually, and said indifferently: "It's okay." β
"But..."The guard said worriedly: "Zixiao Gongzi's internal strength is profound, and this vein palm... There is a small town in front of it, so let's find a famous doctor. β
Gong Yuchen snorted lightly and said, "No need. What kind of famous doctor can there be in such a place? Ever since he met Wei Junmo, he couldn't show his martial arts everywhere because of this body, but now it's gone, but it's clean. "It's just that even for a person like Gong Yuchen, it is not easy to say that he casually ruthlessly wasted his martial arts that are almost alone in the world. This time it happened to encounter this situation, and Gong Yuchen also pushed the boat with the water. His martial arts are too high, and there was nothing originally. But Wei Junmo's martial arts are also very high, once he appears in the light, Wei Junmo is likely to recognize his identity. It's also a good thing to be clean now. Although the Water Pavilion is mysterious, if you really want to check, you may not be able to find clues. Only by completely severing the connection with the Water Pavilion can he use his strategy openly. The real battle between masters is not in martial arts.
The guard frowned and said, "However, the pavilion master will ...... in the future, "It may be more beneficial for the pavilion master to have no martial arts, but the safety of the pavilion master has become a big problem."
Gong Yuchen sneered: "There are more people in this world who don't know martial arts. How many people who can really dominate the world are at the top of their martial arts? β
"The Pavilion Master is right... What people?! Before the guard could finish speaking, he suddenly turned around and drew his sword and pointed to the shade of the tree beside him. The rest of the guards immediately got up and surrounded the carriage in front of them. A moment later, a group of people who were also dressed in black rushed out of the woods and rushed towards Gong Yuchen's carriage without saying a word. The guards of the Water Pavilion immediately became entangled with these people.
Gong Yuchen leaned lazily on the soft cushions in the carriage, and the pain in his heart made him frown slightly. Wei Junmo's palm showed no mercy at all, not only was his martial arts almost wasted, but he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to move if he didn't heal for a while. But it doesn't matter... He will get this revenge back.
Outside, a steady stream of killers came in, and the guards of the Water Pavilion began to be a little unstoppable. Most of the Water Pavilion guards had withdrawn from Lingzhou ahead of schedule, and only a very small number of them had left behind to escort Gong Yuchen.
"Pavilion Master, my subordinates will escort you first."
Gong Yuchen sat up, lifted the curtain of the carriage in front of him, and said lightly: "No need, Miss Zhu, come out." β
"Stop." A moment later, a Qingyue voice came from the woods, and Zhu Chuyu walked out of the woods wearing a black cloak. Raising his hand to uncover the hat with the cloak on his head, he revealed a beautiful face, "Although the palace master is seriously injured, he is still so keen. Gong Yuchen said with a smile: "Xiao Yu'er, I said last time that you should stop being smart, it seems that you have forgotten." β
Zhu Chuyu's face was frosty, and he sneered and said, "Palace Master, I said... I don't like to be controlled by people. You are comfortable in the rivers and lakes to be your water pavilion master, why do you have to wade into this muddy water? β
Gong Yuchen raised his eyebrows, "What I'm more curious about here is that you are such a killer from there?" It's not like it's from Zixiao Palace, right? "These black-clothed men besieging them are not weak, although they are not first-rate killers, they all have second-rate skills. Zhu Chuyu looked at him coldly and didn't speak, just said lightly: "Procrastinating time can't save the life of the Pavilion Master, as far as I know, all the people in the Water Pavilion have already retreated from Lingzhou." The pavilion master's martial arts are all useless now, and the only people in front of him can rely on are they, right? β
A sneer curled on Gong Yuchen's lips, "Xiao Yu'er, if you can go back alive, tell sΓΉ Jin Hao, this time I remember it." β
"I don't know what you're talking about." Zhu Chuyu was shocked in his heart, and said in a deep voice, "Do it!" Kill him! β
Gong Yuchen sneered, and raised his hand, a green jade piccolo fell from his sleeve. Gong Yuchen put the piccolo to her lips and played it gently. The melodious flute sound echoed in the valley, and Zhu Chuyu was slightly stunned, "Gong Yuchen, no matter what tricks you play, you have to die here today!" Zhu Chuyu's voice was hateful, she had always been smooth, except for some setbacks in Wei Junmo and Nangong Mo, no one had ever dared to be rude to her. But Gong Yuchen brought her more shame than Wei Junmo and Nangong Mo combined. She had tried to kill him several times but failed, and she was already desperate, but she didn't expect that there would be such a good opportunity this time. In any case, she must kill Gong Yuchen first, otherwise, she will never be free.
"Huh?!"
Suddenly, a man in black exclaimed, only to see that his face was covered with a layer of dark blue at an extremely fast speed, and then he fell to the ground and bled to death.
Before the crowd could react, the screams were heard one after another, and someone shouted, "There are snakes in the grass!" β
It turned out that when they were, there were many poisonous snakes in the grass. It's just that at this time, the sky is overcast, and the ground is overgrown with dead grass, and no one has noticed it. Just look at the person who was bitten and fell to the ground while sucking, and you can know how strong the venomous snake is.
"He can ride snakes!"
Gong Yuchen sneered and played the piccolo in his hand leisurely. Where can all the killers care about killing? But in a matter of moments, a dozen or so people were bitten, and they couldn't even see where the poisonous snakes were hiding in such a dark sky. What's more, the people around Gong Yuchen are not vegetarians, and it is impossible to kill him at this time. In the end, life was more important, and those who had not yet been bitten immediately flew up decisively and broke away from the battlefield and ran wildly towards the distant woods.
"Hehe, little fish... Now, what do you say this seat should do with you? Gong Yuchen walked to Zhu Chuyu with a guard's hand, and a black poisonous snake crawled along his clothes to his arm, wrapped around his wrist and spit out a letter to Zhu Chuyu. Zhu Chuyu's body was stiff and he didn't dare to move, and his palms were already soaked with sweat.
Gong Yuchen caressed the poisonous snake in his hand lovingly, and said with a smile: "What, do you want it to kiss you?" Do you know what happens to you when you are kissed by a little black? Don't worry, Xiao Hei is definitely not the most poisonous snake I have here, it won't die, look at your feet. Zhu Chuyu stiffened down, and he could clearly see something wriggling in the quibbling grass, and there was still light emitting from time to time under the moonlight. She could even feel one of them crawling up her instep.
"No..."Most women are afraid of poisonous snakes or rats and cockroaches, even if Zhu Chuyu is bolder than ordinary women, but he is not big enough to defy the sky. Such a blessing was definitely not within the range of what she could bear. Gong Yuchen raised her hand and caressed her cheek with a small snake with pity, the cold touch was even more terrifying.
"No... Don't..."
"What shall I say about you? As I said, I like smart women, but... I don't like to be a smart woman. Xiao Yu'er, you are like this, which makes this seat very difficult. Gong Yuchen said, "If I spare you like this, how can this seat rule the Water Pavilion again?" Zhu Chuyu finally couldn't help but shed tears, his lips squirmed with difficulty, "No... Spare me... I was wrong..."
"Spare you?" Gong Yuchen raised his eyebrows and said, "What's the benefit?" β
Zhu Chuyu didn't answer, Gong Yuchen casually put the little black snake on her shoulder, and the little snake slowly swam on her shoulder and turned towards the collar.
"Ahhh I didn't care if I would step on the poisonous snake on the ground if I acted rashly, and stamped my feet frantically while reaching out to grab the snake off my neck.
"Ahh There was a sharp stabbing pain in his calf, and Zhu Chuyu felt a chill in his heart, "Pavilion Master, I was wrong... Please spare me. You can do whatever you want, and I will obey you in the future, please spare me. β
Gong Yuchen seemed to be finally satisfied, raised his hand and grabbed the tail of the little snake and pulled it out, and threw the little snake into the grass without knowing where it went. Zhu Chuyu was stunned, sat down on the ground with weak legs, covered his face and cried bitterly.
Gong Yuchen coughed lightly twice, looked down at Zhu Chuyu condescendingly, and said, "This time, this seat will spare you again." Xiao Yu'er, after this time, I think you should know what you can and can't do, right? You are indeed very smart, but unfortunately, you are not smart enough. From now on, the Zhu family will obey the orders of this seat and exchange your life, how about it? β
"I ......," Zhu Chuyu said stunned.
"Don't tell me that the Zhu family doesn't listen to you. If you can't do it, what use does this seat want you? Gong Yuchen's voice was cold, like the poisonous snake that had burrowed into her collar. Zhu Chuyu couldn't help but tremble a little, and said, "Yes, the Zhu family... In the future, I will obey the dispatch of the cabinet master. β
"That's good." Gong Yuchen said with a smile, "In order to teach you what you did this time, this seat has decided to leave you a little memorial." Lest you forget about jΓ¬ in the future, what do you think? Zhu Chuyu didn't dare to speak, she had never been so afraid of the man in front of her. Gong Yuchen raised his hand and gently stroked her face, Zhu Chuyu only felt a pain in his cheeks, and couldn't help but look at Gong Yuchen in horror. Gong Yuchen smiled: "You have been poisoned by snakes, you must release the poisonous blood, right?" β
Got bitten on the leg by a snake? Poison from the face?
Gong Yuchen casually stuffed a pill into her mouth and said softly: "Be obedient in the future, this seat will still hurt you." Don't make me angry anymore, you know? Otherwise, this seat will let you live with those little things for the rest of your life. β
ββ¦ Yes, Cabinet Master. Zhu Chuyu lowered his eyes and said in a low voice.
"Very well, let's go." Gong Yuchen stood up, took the guard's hand and turned around and walked towards the carriage, never looking back at Zhu Chuyu, who was sitting on the ground in a daze.
Soon, the carriage restarted, and Gong Yuchen sat in the carriage and flipped through a book.
"Pavilion master, that Zhu Chuyu... Is it really good to keep it? "That woman dared to find someone to assassinate the pavilion master, it can be seen that she is not a coward. If it is against it in the future...... Gong Yuchen said: "She is a smart person, with this lesson, she will know what to do and what not to do." Zhu Family... It's still useful after all, and it's a pity to throw it away like this. β
"Yes, Pavilion Master."
Fuwang Mountain, Zhu Chuyu's room.
Zhu Chuyu stumbled open the door and walked in, ignoring the mess on his body, and hurriedly walked to the dressing mirror to look inside. The bright bronze mirror reflected a beautiful woman with a somewhat tired and haggard expression. But on that beautiful face, there was a zigzag wound on the top of the cheek, which looked like a crooked little snake spitting letters.
Zhu Chuyu exclaimed in surprise and hurriedly reached out to cover his cheek. The touch of her palm made the wound suddenly painful, and she closed her eyes and slowly lowered her hand. Looking at the scars on his face in a daze, Zhu Chuyu finally bit his fingers and whimpered and cried.
She regretted it, why did she go out of her way to kill Gong Yuchen? Why did he provoke that madman Gong Yuchen? No... It wasn't she who provoked it, it was Gong Yuchen who entangled it herself, but why... Why her?
"Woo woo...... "Why is this happening, every qiΔ is ruined...
"Where have you been?" A deep voice came from behind him, Zhu Chuyu was stunned, and hurriedly looked back, but saw Jin Hao standing behind him and looking at her at some point. The look on Jin Hao's face was not good-looking, and his gaze stayed on her face for a long time and asked, "What's wrong?" How did you end up like this? Zhu Chuyu hurriedly covered his face, biting the corner of his lip and refusing to speak.
Jin Hao was a little angry and said, "What happened?" You went out with so many people, why did you come back alone and the others? β
"Someone else..."Zhu Chuyu said with tears in his eyes, trembling: "Someone else... All dead. β
"What the hell are you taking people out for?" Jin Hao said, "You said that the Zhu family has some goods to be escorted by someone, how can they all die?" On the realm of Lingzhou, who dares to kill my people? β
"Palace... Gong Yuchen. Zhu Chu said.
"What?" Jin Hao was shocked, "Why did you provoke Gong Yuchen?" β
Zhu Chuyu turned around and cried bitterly in front of the dressing mirror, seeing her like this, Jin Hao couldn't ask again, so he had to turn around and go out and say, "I'll go find Gong Yuchen!" β
"Don't!" Zhu Chuyu shuddered and couldn't help screaming. Jin Hao was stunned, looked back at the frightened look on her face, and had to sigh and ask softly, "What happened?" β
Zhu Chuyu lowered his eyes and said in a trembling voice: "I... Qi Gong Yuchen ruined the matter of the emperor's eldest grandson, and knew that he had lost all his martial arts, so he led people to teach him a lesson. I didn't want to move...... Jin Hao only sighed, and said helplessly: "You are really... A person like Gong Yuchen, not to mention a complete loss of martial arts, even if there is only one breath left, it is not something you can kill. You ......"
"I know it's wrong... I'm so scared... He, he's not human..."
"What the hell did he do?"
"He let the snake bite me. Those people were bitten to death by his poisonous snakes. Zhu Chu said, "Jin Hao, don't be angry with me, I... I..."
Jin Hao looked at her pale and haggard face, sighed slightly, and said, "I told you earlier... Leave these things alone, you ......"
Zhu Chuyu turned around, looked at himself in the bronze mirror, and said, "I don't want to care about these either, but what can I do?" Several brothers are not angry, the huge Zhu family, if I don't hold on, maybe the Zhu family will decline in our generation. How could I watch the Zhu family disappear into Jinling City like this, and there are so many people in Gao Yibo's Mansion, what are they going to do? β
Jin Hao frowned, and said in a deep voice: "I once told you......"
Zhu Chuyu shook his head and said, "No." I rejected you before, and the answer is the same. I am the daughter of the Zhu family, so I will never leave the Zhu family. β
There was silence in the room, and after a long time, Zhu Chu said, "Jin Hao, I'm sorry for letting you lose so many people this time...... I could..."
"Forget it!" Jin Hao interrupted what she was about to say, glanced at Zhu Chuyu deeply, and said, "Since you insist on this, then so be it." I'll go first. After that, regardless of Zhu Chuyu's expression of what he wanted to say, he turned around and pushed the door and walked out. Zhu Chuyu looked at the door where Jin Hao's figure disappeared in a daze, and only let out a soft breath for a while.
In the guest room on the other side, Wei Junmo was sitting in the room talking with Nangong Molin Changfeng, and Liu came in and said, "Shizi, Shizifei, the county lord of Shanjia is back." β
Wei Junmo raised his eyebrows, and there was a hint of regret on his cold face: "Zhu Chuyu failed, didn't he?" β
Liu nodded and said, "The Water Pavilion Pavilion Master actually knows how to control snakes, and most of the people brought by the Shanjia County Lord have been bitten to death by poisonous snakes. The rest... was killed by Zhu Chuyu's design. But now, it is estimated that all the blame is on Gong Yuchen's head. β
"It's rubbish." Wei Junmo rubbed his eyebrows and said lightly.
Lin Changfeng said with some joy: "That's not what I said, we didn't know in advance that Gong Yuchen actually had such a trick." You're right, if you really force Gong Yuchen to fight to the death with us, you might as well be afraid that he will hurt a lot of people for a while. But... What did Zhu Chuyu do when he killed Jin Hao? β
Nangong Mo smiled lightly: "It's probably because people who are afraid of Jin Hao will see something that shouldn't be seen, the relationship between the eldest lady of the Zhu family and Gong Yuchen is not ordinary." β
Lin Changfeng touched his chin and said, "So, isn't the most unlucky person Jin Hao." β
Nangong Mo smiled lightly.
"Lingzhou City will definitely be able to conquer it tomorrow night at the latest, and the most important thing in the future is to pacify the people and provide disaster relief." Wei Junmo raised the fold in his hand and asked, "What is this?" Nangong Mo glanced at it and said with a low sneer: "This is the disaster relief plan of Chen Shang, a staff member under the King of Yuejun, and it has been vetoed by me." The scholars around Xiao Qianye are all brilliant, but the so-called disaster relief plan has been written for dozens of pages, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is the same meaning - "It is His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun who provides disaster relief, and it is His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun who is kind to the people, and His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun loves the people like a son."
"Do what you think, Xiao Qianye has any opinion for him to come to me." Wei Junmo casually dropped the fold in his hand and said.
Nangong Mo nodded and smiled: "I know, don't worry." You hurried to Fuwang Mountain, the war over there in Lingzhou City has not yet been resolved, so it is better to go back early. lest those sour people talk nonsense. Wei Junmo didn't care, and said indifferently: "A small Lingzhou City, don't worry so much. "Before, because of the lack of food and grass, no matter how hungry the soldiers and horses were, it was a big deal. Today's imperial court is rebellious and strong, if you can't even take the rabble of Lingzhou City, those people don't have the face to go back to see the emperor's majesty.
Nangong Mo smiled: "Anyway, let's do it first." β
Wei Junmo lowered his head and looked at her calmly. Nangong Mo and Lin Changfeng smelled a hint of displeasure from his indifferent face at the same time, and Changfeng Gongzi immediately alertly said that he still had important things to do and was going to retire. Nangong Mo, who was sitting next to Wei Junmo, didn't withdraw so easily, while secretly scolding someone in his heart for not being righteous, Nangong Mo squeezed out a well-behaved smile towards Wei Junmo, "Junmo? What's wrong? β
Wei Junmo raised his hand to caress her beautiful face, and said, "For the sake of a girl, you were almost captured by Gong Yuchen today." β
Nangong Mo pulled his hand down and said with a soothing smile: "Am I fine?" Even if I was really arrested, it wouldn't be again, after all, it was a human life, should I still watch death and not save it? β
Wei Junmo frowned, and after a while, he said, "Don't save it in the future." If anything happens to you because you save someone, I'll kill her. β
Nangong Mo sighed, approached him in his arms and hugged his waist and smiled: "I know you're worried about me, I'm really fine." Don't worry, even if I want to save people, I'll be sure that my life is not in danger. You know, I'm not a bodhisattva-minded person. Wei Junmo hugged her for a while before saying, "Gong Yuchen will not be your opponent in the future, but you still have to be careful next time you meet him." β
At the mention of Gong Yuchen, a trace of coldness flashed in Nangong Mo's eyes, and said, "Next time if I have the opportunity, I will definitely kill him." This person is really ......, "He doesn't know whether to say that Gong Yuchen is inhuman or too crazy." But at least the existence of Gong Yuchen is a disaster for most people in this world.
Wei Junmo said: "He has lost all his martial arts, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to show up in front of people in the future." "Gong Yuchen is indeed arrogant, but he is not stupid. Since he dared to let people abolish his martial arts, he naturally would not think about his own safety. Therefore, Zhu Chuyu's assassination of Gong Yuchen failed, and Wei Junmo had a trace of regret, but he was not too disappointed.
Nangong Mo smiled: "If he doesn't show up for the rest of his life, that's the best." β
Wei Junmo stroked her vest, her purple eyes deep and distant. I'm afraid that it's unlikely forever, and from the first time he saw Gong Yuchen, he had an intuition that the two of them seemed to be born to be undying enemies. And Gong Yuchen's temperament will never be silent for a lifetime because of a mere injury. The Prosperous Doctor
