Chapter 441: A Rainy Night
Chapter 441: A Rainy Night
The autumn rain is bleak and cold, and the wind of the autumn night exacerbates the chill of the rain, and it is wantonly swaying in the dark night sky.
In the huge Xuanwang Palace, only the sound of the rain was quiet, and the guards braved the rain, patrolling back and forth, without a trace of relaxation.
The swishing black shadow flew over the Xuanwang Palace, like a ghost in the dark night, unable to catch a trace, and after the flash, the air was still quiet.
In Lingzhu Garden, two palace maids of comparable size stood guard under the eaves and kept vigil.
Ling Zhuyuan is Helian Rui's exclusive dining place, and all the palace maids are carefully selected by Bihe beside him.
The rain soaked most of his body, and even though he was covered by eaves, it was still difficult to stop the rain.
A palace maid shrunk her body, the rain ran down her eyes, she couldn't open her eyes flickering, and complained in a whisper.
Another palace maid stood in the rain generously, staring at the dark place, her face was indifferent, and her deep eyes were shining.
Reaching out and touching the slightly ill-fitting mask on her cheek, her eyebrows frowned, it seemed that she had to get out of this Ling Zhuyuan as soon as possible.
The mask could not withstand the soaking of the rain, and now there were already signs of puffiness, if it hadn't been at night, I am afraid that it would have been discovered long ago.
Mu Qianxun's identity at this time is a female chef in Ling Zhuyuan, named Xia Chan, the niece of Ling Zhuyuan's housekeeper.
is indifferent, silent, and has a bad relationship with everyone in Ling Zhuyuan, but because of his identity, no one dares to offend.
Xia Chan likes loose clothes, and Mu Qianxun's slightly bulging lower abdomen is just used to cover it up, which is not very conspicuous, not to mention, most of the women in Ling Zhuyuan are bloated.
Among the masks made by Cao'er, there is a mask that is almost exactly the same as Xia Chan, and it is not a coincidence that Cao'er must have seen this woman named Xia Chan.
I have to say that Cao'er's intelligence is really unmatched, except for Xia Cicada, other women, in the absence of contact, are really not so easy to dress.
Only Xia Chan, Mu Qianxun is handy at dressing, and in the past few days of sneaking into the palace, she hardly talks to anyone, only focusing on cooking her food, passing on her news, and laying out her bureau.
It's also funny, most of the palace names in this palace have to clip the word "Ling", and the world only thinks that Helian Rui has a deep relationship with Ling Xingluan, but now it seems that it is very ironic.
Helian Rui was definitely just trying to hide people's eyes, or did he feel that Ling Xing's death was the pride of his life?
Smelling a faint medicinal fragrance overflowing from the rain, Mu Qianxun restrained his expression, put down the jade hand that was blocking his face, and walked towards the gate of Ling Zhuyuan silently.
"Hey, Sister Xia Chan, where are you going? Today is our vigil!"
Ignoring the call of the woman who was so anxious that she couldn't name her name so vaguely, the stride meteor disappeared.
Tonight is the time for them to act, and it is a good time to take advantage of this rainy night, when Helian Rui is absolutely unvigilant.
Rain, let the rolling blood be washed away along this heavy rain, after the rain, everything will be different!
Walking on the cold floor of Xuanwang Palace, the splashing rain fell on the already wet skirt, and the ankles were oozing cold.
Tiptoe to the ground, volleying through the palace, silently avoiding the guards' sight.
"Uncle Qin, have you made the arrangements?"
"Master, everything is going according to plan, and the Iron Blood Guard is already waiting for a solemn order!"
The night was pitch black, and there was little to prove their existence except the sound of the rain, weakened by the sound of the rain.
The corners of Mu Qianxun's mouth slowly outlined a light smile, and the solemnity in his eyes was even greater:
"Okay, when I enter the Ling Rui Palace, Uncle Qin will do his best to help them break through the palace gate and control the situation!"
"Yes! The master really wants to break into the Ling Rui Hall alone? Helian Ruijue still has a hundred miles of solitary Su by his side, and Helian Ruijue's own kung fu is also the best among people!"
Qin Hui hesitated to dissuade, as a subordinate, he should not question his master's decision, but just because she called him Uncle Qin, he didn't want to see her go into danger.
"Uncle Qin, don't worry, You Chen will answer me. ”
As soon as the words fell, a few flashes disappeared, leaving only Qin Hui sighing in place.
Near Ling Rui Palace, Mu Qianxun was secretly secret, and the tight sense of oppression around him, like maggots on the tarsal bones, was difficult to ignore.
This time is different from the past, she can see through the clues in the middle at a glance, it seems that there are really a lot of secret defenses in this Ling Rui Palace.
These people are the top priority of the entire palace, and they will not be dispatched easily, even if there are assassins, those who do it in advance will be guards on the surface.
Then, she had to take Helian Rui's life by surprise before they could be defenseless!
"Xun'er!"
When he was thinking deeply, he suddenly felt a chill behind him, and he was about to turn around, but Mu Youchen's deep voice had already fallen in his ears.
With a burst of surprise, he stared at Mu Youchen in armor, blinking his eyes:
"How did you get here so fast?"
"That's it, do things for your husband, don't worry, madam!"
Looking at Mu Youchen's still calm appearance, he couldn't help but smile indifferently, and the heaviness in his heart seemed to have been unloaded:
"Can you find out, how many guards are there in the palace?"
"Well, there are more than 15,000, 3,000 have been disposed of, and more than 4,000 people can't get out of it for the time being, and the time left for us is enough!"
More than 15,000 people, half more than expected, is very alarming, but ...... This is even more frightening.
How did Mu Youchen easily dispose of the three thousand guards in this crisis-ridden palace without alarming anyone, for this reason, Mu Qianxun was deeply suspicious.
"Ahem...... It's just that...... I moved my hands and feet in the meal and fainted......"
couldn't stand Mu Qianxun's bright and inquiring gaze, Mu Youchen blocked her lips, embarrassed.
"Rushing into the hall, there are more than ten guards to deal with in advance, how to divide it?"
His gaze returned to the bright Ling Rui Palace, his eyes flashed with a bit of complexity, and the hand holding the sword was slightly numb.
"I'll settle it, you go first!"
The moist and warm palm covered the back of her hand, and for a moment, it was attacked by the cold wind, and Mu Youchen had already rushed out, the long sword was unsheathed, stepping on the rain, and a white ripple appeared.
When he wanted to speak, he held back, his eyes were slightly wet, and he didn't know if it was tears or rain.
It's just that he is afraid that Helian Rui will set up an ambush in advance, he is always used to putting himself in danger, but he is never willing to let her be tempted, nor dare he let her accompany him into danger.
"Stop!"
In front of the door of Ling Rui Palace, when Mu Youchen approached, the guards came back to their senses and noticed this uninvited guest who suddenly appeared.
When Mu Youchen's knife rose and fell, flesh and blood flew sideways, and several guards, who were not his opponents at all, glanced in the direction of Mu Qianxun.
In a few moments, Mu Qianxun had already kicked open the door of Ling Rui Hall under the support of Mu Youchen, and this familiar and unfamiliar, bright and dark place came into view again.
At the door, the entangled guards increased several times in an instant, and Mu Youchen could not get out for a while.
Mu Qianxun stood on top of the main hall of Ling Rui Hall vividly, his body was cold, staring at the figure sitting at the back of the desk, his blood was surging!
There were no sudden accidents, no empty palaces, everything was expected, and it was unbelievably smooth.
"Who?
Helian didn't raise his eyes for an order, and the first to bear the brunt was naturally his only henchman before, Baili Gusu!
The cold light appeared, the sword was dignified, and there was a faint mockery in the corner of his eyes, Baili Gusu came just in time, he was the first in her must-kill list!
If Mu Qianxun hadn't fully shown his skills before, Baili Gusu still had the ability to fight, but now, he can only be crushed.
If she can't even deal with a hundred miles of solitary su, where does she get the confidence to force the palace, what she wants to deal with is the entire Xuanwang Palace! What she wants to control is the entire Qingge tribe!
Baili Gusu had a look of imminent victory, and even without using all his strength, he couldn't even figure out Mu Qianxun's location with one move.
didn't have time to calm the suspicion in his heart, and he didn't have time to fight back, Mu Qianxun was already close, clamping his arm, flipping.
The center of gravity was unstable and fell to the ground, and when he wanted to make a move, Mu Qianxun's long sword was already cold and cold on his neck.
The guards behind him were not afraid of the deadly sneak attack, and rushed up, neatly sideways, stepped on the shoulders of one of the guards, and flipped to the periphery.
With the help of his strength, the guard's sword was plunged straight into Baili Gusu's chest, his heart was on the left, and he believed that with his eyesight, Baili Gusu would never die too quickly.
Watching the blood in his body slowly drain out, he can't live or die, this kind of torture, I don't know if it suits him?
I don't know if when he was struggling to fight with Mu Youchen, when he threw Bailijing to her, when he shot that arrow at Ye Chen, he thought of his fate!
Viciously glared at Baili Gusu for the last time, looked back, and stared coldly at the monarch who was in danger, the next one was him!
The supreme monarch, her flesh-and-blood father, the hypocrite who abandoned his wife!
Seeing that the guards in the palace have been slaughtered, wherever Mu Qianxun's sword goes, it seems that the people killed are not people, but green vegetables and tofu.
Helian Rui squinted his eyes, still smirked, and didn't care much about Baili Gusu's death, but became a little interested in her:
"Come on, take it!"
To this day, he still doesn't think that Mu Qianxun can pose any threat to him by himself, and he has been in a high position for so many years.
is accustomed to strategizing, and seems to think that the people in the world and the affairs of the world are under his control, and his self-confidence that has been blind for too long is finally his fatal flaw!
The guards around the periphery of Ling Rui Hall poured out, and Mu Youchen was finally able to get rid of the entanglement of some guards and enter Ling Rui Palace.
Mu Qianxun's footsteps paused, pulled the corners of his mouth, ripped off the swollen mask on his face, and sneered.
I don't know if Helian Ruijue will be moved by the look on his face after seeing her face clearly, and what kind of excitement it will be.
Sure enough, Mu Youchen's seemingly casual expression still added a subtle unnaturalness:
"Chihiro, why did you come back and don't let people report it, what are you doing so much!"
