Chapter 205: Ashes and Ashes

While everyone was still amazed, Ling Heng on Xiao Moheng's team had already played, Ling Heng was already a veteran in the army, and riding and archery was just a common thing for him, so he leaned on his back, lay on his horse and shot an arrow, which hit the red heart, causing everyone to cheer and praise again. The two lieutenants who came out immediately after were also very good at archery, and after ten people appeared, Xiao Moheng had already been hit by eight arrows.

And Jiang Mei has obviously been defeated. Jiang Mei finally had to put her expectant eyes on Mu Xiaohe, if Mu Xiao and the rest of the people over there could shoot, then naturally they would be on par with Xiao Moheng, Jiang Mei thought in her heart, even if she couldn't defeat Xiao Moheng, but she couldn't let him be too arrogant, so she very much hoped that Mu Xiao and the remaining four people could shoot, so she repeatedly cast encouraging eyes.

Mu Xiaohe was made to cry and laugh by her, he didn't care about winning or losing at all, not to mention that Xiao Moheng was the boss in the end, so he was not ready to steal his limelight. So he just nodded lightly to the players on his team and motioned for the four of them to come out for the competition.

Next, Xu Liang, Chu Yutang and the deputy general all mounted their horses and shot one after another, and these three naturally lived up to expectations and hit the bull's-eye. For some reason, Jiang Mei seems to have been bullied by Xiao Moheng today, and her arrogant heart has also risen for a while, and she just thinks that she can't make him proud. In this way, Jiang Mei put her expectations on the last guard to appear in the game. If he can shoot, at least Xiao Moheng will not win.

Compared with Jiang Mei, who was very concerned about the situation of the competition on the field, Mu Xiaohe and Xiao Moheng didn't care at all whether that person won or lost. The two of them actually drank leisurely. But the next moment, the eyes of the two of them were drawn to the last guard.

The guard mounted his horse. But he was not in a hurry to shoot an arrow, but seemed to want to show his riding skills, he stepped on the stirrup, his body stood up, and ran forward with all his might, and the heroic posture that roared by was as proud as an eagle, and it was a cheer from the audience.

"Good!" Jiang Mei couldn't help but stand up and cheered.

Immediately, Mu Xiaohe and Xiao Moheng also stood up, and their eyes lit up, but they didn't expect that the last person to appear was actually a master. I saw the black-clothed guard standing and running around for a while. He turned the horse's head again. Lying on his back like a horse, he drove from west to east, and when he approached the center of the stage, he drew his bow and arrows in one hand. While everyone waits for him to draw his bow and shoot at the bullseye in front of him. The guard suddenly turned sharply. The taut string suddenly loosened, and the arrow feather shot quickly in the direction of Xiao Moheng.

Immediately, everyone stopped breathing, frightened by this sudden scene. They all opened their mouths in horror as they watched the sharp arrow shoot towards Xiao Moheng. In that short moment, Xiao Moheng's pupils shrank, and he forgot to dodge when he stood there.

"Your Highness......" exclaimed the crowd,

However, at the same time as the guard pulled the bow towards Xiao Moheng, Luo Jue quickly used a palm to "wipe out", and when the arrow feather flew over the platform, the arrow feather was shattered.

The people on the left were also frightened by the scene in front of them at the same time that they were retreated by Luo Jue's palm, and they fell to the ground one by one, dumbfounded.

And after Luo Jue took out his palm, he immediately protected Xiao Moheng with Qin Xin, who jumped over. It wasn't until everyone saw that Xiao Moheng was safe and sound that they couldn't stop panting in horror and hurriedly stood up,

And Jiang Mei was obviously frightened by the thrilling scene just now, she suddenly staggered weakly, but was hurriedly supported by Ruoyun behind her. The moment just now was really too dangerous, if she guessed correctly, the arrow must be poisonous, and if Xiao Moheng was hit by the arrow, he would definitely die. Her face had turned pale with fright, if Xiao Moheng died, then what was the point of all this? Recalling the scene just now, she still felt a chill in her back and palpitations.

"Your Highness... Are you okay? Mu Xiaohe, who was the first to come to his senses, asked out loud after suppressing the horror in his heart.

Everyone stabilized their senses, hurriedly stepped forward to look at Xiao Moheng, and said with concern: "Your Highness...."

Xiao Moheng stood quietly, without saying half a word on his lips, he looked coldly at the guard who was fighting with Yue Hua, and a trace of viciousness flashed in his eyes. Only then did everyone react, "Catch the assassin!" Ling Heng said angrily.

"Wait!" Xiao Moheng slowly walked out from between Luoxuan and Qin Xin, and said with a cold face: "This king believes that the Yue guards can restrain him, you can surround him!" Remember, catch it alive! Xiao Moheng's tone was cold, and the cold light from his faint eyes made the heat at the turn of spring and summer dissipate.

As soon as his voice fell, all the armor guards in the audience quickly surrounded Yue Hua and the assassin, and they all drew their bows and arrows and pointed directly at the black-clothed assassin.

At this moment, Jiang Mei and Mu Xiaohe were both standing steadily on Xiao Moheng's side, although everyone followed Xiao Moheng to pay attention to the duel on the field, but their thoughts were different. The most panicked and trembling was Chu Yutang, who looked at the black-clothed assassin sadly, and his heart was uneasy, because the assassin happened to be the person selected from his people, but he really didn't know what the assassin was and where he came from, but this assassin was from his team, and he really jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't wash it.

As bitter as him, there is also Mu Xiaohe, who doesn't know that Chu Yutang is Pei Yun's person, so he can be regarded as his Mu Xiaohe's person in the army. Mu Xiao and his original faction belonged to the Nine Emperor Princes, this is a well-known thing, if he sent someone to assassinate Xiao Moheng, it is absolutely tenable. However, Mu Xiaohe naturally doesn't have this kind of thought, but it is difficult to guarantee that no one in Beijing does this.

A few days ago, Xiao Mocheng's letter also asked him to try to occupy Xiangyang and block Xiao Moheng's retreat, Pei Xiang and Su Xiang in Beijing were already very afraid of Xiao Moheng, who had outstanding achievements, if Xiao Moheng died at this time, then Mu Xiaohe was the commander of the three armies, and this once and for all method had to make people tempted.

Of course, in addition to Xiao Mocheng in Beijing, it is also possible to send someone to assassinate Xiao Moheng is Beihe. Therefore, Mu Xiaohe was still elusive for a while, and it was difficult to figure out where this assassin came from.

After everyone calmed down, they were all thinking about this thrilling assassination. The generals are not foolish people, and they know that this matter is very delicate. It is not only related to the overall situation of the Northern Expedition, but even involves the dispute between the court.

Jiang Mei, who was standing beside Xiao Moheng, secretly glanced at Chu Yutang, and saw that he was already sweating profusely, knowing that he was panicked, but Jiang Mei never thought that this was a sign of being a thief, because Chu Yutang's expression showed confusion and helplessness, not panic after the defeat. And Chu Yutang doesn't have this ability, of course, Jiang Mei will not think that this assassin is ordered by Mu Xiaohe, she firmly believes that Mu Xiaohe is not such a person. Thereupon. In a matter of seconds. Jiang Mei concluded that the assassin was from Beihe.

First of all, there are only two people who can make this arrangement, one is Beihe and the other is Su Jin. Both of them have the ability. There is also this motivation. But if you think about it, it seems to be more in line with Kitazuru's style of doing things. The results are also most favorable to Kitazuru.

Even if Su Jin wanted to get rid of Xiao Moheng again, he would assassinate the commander of the Huan Army when Beihe might attack at any time. The wise man did not do it, but with Jiang Mei's understanding of Su Jin, he seemed to prefer to wait for the opportunity to kill him after Xiao Moheng pacified the Central Plains in one fell swoop, and enjoy the results of his battle. And even if Su Jin made a move, he would not put that assassin in Chu Yutang's army.

And Beihe is different, if Beihe assassinates successfully, firstly, the Huan army will have no owner, and secondly, it can also make the Huan army fall into a crisis of splitting, Dayan just took advantage of the situation to recover Xiangyang, and even waved the army south to Jiankang. If the assassination is unsuccessful, then he can also provoke the contradiction between Xiao Moheng and Mu Xiaohe, making the two dislike each other and affecting the unity and morale of the army.

Jiang Mei had to applaud Beihe's move, this plan was really ruthless and poisonous. However, Jiang Mei didn't dare to be sure that Xiao Moheng also thought like her. After all, Su Jin regarded him more as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. No matter how much she believed in him and respected him, she had to remind herself that he was a lord, a king, and probably even an emperor.

And in this world, the emperor's mind is the most unfathomable, let alone a thoughtful and meticulous Xiao Moheng. I'm afraid that in his eyes, it doesn't matter what the truth is, what matters is what kind of goal he will use the assassination to achieve. He could choose to take the opportunity to subdue the hearts of Mu Xiao and the soldiers, and then direct all the hatred at Beihe, so that the whole army could unite as one, and then sweep Yan Di. Of course, he can also use this incident to squeeze out Mu Xiaohe, and even point the finger at Xiao Mocheng and the Su family, so that when he returns to Beijing, there will be a lot less trouble. Both have pros and cons, it depends on Xiao Moheng's own decision.

When Mu Xiaohe and Jiang Mei were making this calculation, Xiao Moheng stared seriously at the two who were in full swing on the field. This fight has already made Xiao Moheng see the depth of Yue Hua and the assassin, whether Yue Hua is facing each other in the air or fighting in close combat, his martial arts are rare in the rivers and lakes, and the assassin actually did not show weakness, and he was able to advance and retreat to a certain extent under Yue Hua's attack without any gaps, which had to make Xiao Moheng embarrassed, it seemed that this Beihe had pressed the old Ben as well.

How could Xiao Moheng not know that this was Beihe's killing move, but compared to the complicated expressions of the two people next to him, Xiao Moheng was paying attention to the duel between the two with a clear face, and he must watch Yue Hua cut down the assassin.

This Yue Hua was originally one of the five top killers of Yiyun Pavilion, he not only had profound internal skills, but also was particularly good at swordsmanship, but that assassin was still intact under his fierce attack, I have to say that Yue Hua met an opponent. As a martial idiot, when encountering a strong opponent, his heart is unprecedentedly exciting and exciting. When everyone on the stage was anxiously waiting for Yue Hua to quickly take down the hateful assassin, Yue Dagongzi had completely forgotten that his opponent was an assassin, and instead fought with him to his heart's content, so that Jiuzhu and Luojun looked like a competition in the rivers and lakes.

However, Lord Luo was not in a hurry, because judging from the assassin's moves, he had already found out that he was the master of the Jin'an Palace, and this assassin was the only master who injured him that night, so if he could get rid of him today, it would undoubtedly be a happy thing, but judging from the current situation, it was difficult to distinguish the winner in a short period of time, even if he believed that Yue Hua, who had more and more stamina in the fight, would eventually be able to subdue the assassin, but I am afraid that it would be a matter of hundreds of moves.

Luo Jue then glanced at Jiuzhu and motioned for him to join the battle. And Jiuzhu, who hadn't done it for a long time, couldn't hold back his fighting spirit after seeing the master, so he didn't hesitate and jumped into the battle circle of the two.

All the generals are also fierce generals who have been galloping on the battlefield for many years, and they all left behind the tense and heavy atmosphere for a while, and were attracted by the tricks of the three peerless masters. It's just that in amazement, they also have to re-examine Jiang Mei, there are actually three top masters gathered next to a slender woman, which really has to be embarrassing.

With Jiuzhu joining, the assassin was obviously quite difficult, one Yue Hua exhausted the strength of his whole body, and another Jiuzhu, he was completely unable to parry, when Jiuzhu struggled to attack from the front, Yue Hua jumped closer, and stabbed straight to his left side with a sword, the assassin repelled Jiuzhu with one palm, but he was no longer able to dodge Yue Hua's sharp long sword.

The sunlight shone on the extremely sharp blade, shining brightly, blinding the assassin's eyes, everyone only heard a scream, the "Yuehua Sword" that had stabbed Jiang Mei finally stabbed into the assassin's chest without hesitation, Yue Hua raised his hand, and blood splashed everywhere.

The guards rushed forward, grabbed the Assassin, and dragged him straight to the stands. When the guards threw the assassin to the ground, Ling Heng stepped forward and asked sharply, "Who are you and who are you assigned by?" ”

The assassin fell to the ground, holding the wound with one hand, supporting the ground with the other, slowly raising the wheezing face, still spitting blood in his mouth, he first glanced at Xiao Moheng, saw that he was intact, there was a trace of unwillingness and even anger in his eyes, and then he also snorted lightly, and moved his gaze to Mu Xiaohe, who looked indifferent, but what puzzled everyone was that he actually smiled at Mu Xiaohe, and then his eyes froze, his head tilted, and the whole person fell down instantly.

Qin Xin hurriedly stepped forward to probe his snort, Qin Xin paused, and immediately raised his head and said, "Not good, Your Highness, he is already dead!" ”

Jiang Mei closed her eyes when she heard this, and she was annoyed in her heart, this assassin was so cunning that he actually wanted to slander Mu Xiaohe before he died. But now that he is dead, he was looking at Mu Xiao and his indifferent smile before he died, but he was seen by everyone. Jiang Mei had a cold face, looking at the dead assassin indifferently, and there was a wave of hatred in her heart, Beihe wanted to separate the relationship between Xiao Moheng and Mu Xiaohe, and it depended on whether she agreed or not.

The generals had a very ugly look on their faces for a while, they all tightened their brows, and they wanted to stop talking, especially Qiu Shaoping was even more anxious, he was friendly with Mu Xiao, and naturally he didn't want him to be framed.

At this time, Chu Yutang suddenly knelt on the ground and said with a crying voice: "Your Highness, please punish the last general, this assassin is mixed with the last general, and the last general will not notice, so that His Royal Highness is in danger, and the crime deserves death!" (To be continued......)
