Chapter 231: Blood Light Kills No Injury

Although Chu Jiangmian did not die, he was also very embarrassed. This time it was really dangerous, if it wasn't for the soft armor he was wearing to save his life, he would have really been disemboweled.

The Ugin soft armor was put on for him by the Queen Mother Jiang Xin herself. When he set off to leave Zhao Kingdom, this mother, who was full of pain, dressed him carefully, and told him not to be careless. If she could, she would only like her son to stay with her and not let him go far away to do any adventures.

But there was nothing she could do. He won't even say anything that might distract him. Because she understands the ambition in his heart. Even for the promise he made at the beginning, his sleep must do his best.

And she's just a woman after all. Can't help him much. Maybe that's all you can do. When he left his wing shelter to fight in the wind and thunder, she was willing to remove the hardest scale armor and defend him against the frost sword.

And just now, the soft armor that Jiang Xin personally put on for his son really saved his life. King Zhao, whose clothes were messy in the wind, stood up and took a deep breath, and while he was surprised by the strength of the assassin, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice. I'm still too careless. Even with his keen sense of danger, he was not alert at all before that stab, which has to be said to be a profound lesson.

After a few moments, the people up and down the Peacock Terrace finally realized what had happened. Many people reacted from the stunned shock. All kinds of panic and anger, swords unsheathed, and the army of guards swarmed up, beginning to isolate and protect. The people of Qi who had never encountered such an emergency had no idea what would happen next. And what they are most afraid of in their eagerness is, of course, the safety of King Zhao and King Qi.

There is no doubt that in the current situation, if any accident happens to any of them, it will be a disaster.

The sand and dust swept by the wind had not yet fallen, and Gongzi Tianxian, who understood what had happened, trembled with excitement. In an instant, the thought that crossed his mind was, could it be that his curse had been fulfilled? There were assassins who appeared to kill Chu Jiangmian at this time...... Is he dead?!

However, his great hope quickly turned to disappointment. When his eyes eagerly searched for the figure, he found that King Zhao was not only safe and sound, but had already been closely protected by his loyal subordinates.

"It's a pity ......."

His whisper blurted out, and in just two words there was both schadenfreude and some regret. Although he knew that no one could hear him in such a chaotic situation, he still revealed what he was thinking.

And the general Tian Ji, who had spoken to him a moment ago, heard it very clearly. However, the royal general, who was in charge of guarding the Canghai Imperial City, couldn't care about these things now. He looked at the assassin not far away with a pale face, and his heart was already frightened and frightened.

The man in the uniform of a lieutenant colonel in the army, he once had an impression. It's just that I can't figure out why this little-known guy suddenly went crazy to assassinate King Zhao? And after such an incident, the calm situation in the court of the King of Qi will inevitably be broken, even if the King of Zhao and the King of Qi will not have an accident or be injured, the huge waves that will follow will be unpredictable.

The Qi general, like many of those present at the time, was keenly aware of the grave consequences of the Assassin's presence. But their eyes were only limited to the Qi Kingdom, but they didn't know that because of the sudden attack of the assassin's premature departure, the entire pattern of the world would be changed because of this.

From this moment on, the smoke rose everywhere, and Kyushu was shaken. The overthrow of Sheji and the extinction of the princes' clans were inevitable after all...... A strong country will officially open its fangs and take the steps of its expansion and annexation!

After the sword was unsheathed, Ji Zi now felt a little self-reproachful in his heart. Even he didn't expect that on the peacock platform in front of King Qi's palace, on such an important occasion, someone in the world would be bold enough to publicly assassinate. If Chu Jiangmian was really injured because of this, he didn't know what his face would be and go back to see Jiang Xin. He couldn't bear the woman's grief even more.

The assassin in front of him was really powerful. There are not many people in this world who can block Ji Zi's three swords, and although the other party was broken and retreated in one move, he shook his hand, two short blades in his hand, and in the crisp sound of swords striking, he actually dodged the deadly sword in a row.

It seems that this guy pretending to be a Qi military academy officer is not simple! But that's it. Ji Zi sneered, the edge of the long sword suddenly skyrocketed, the assassin's swift figure froze, and in the cry of pain, the smoke and dust died out, and blood splashed everywhere. Ji Zi took a step back, lowered his head and asked lightly.

"Who are you and where did you come from?"

His arms and legs were stabbed several times, and he couldn't support it anymore, the short knife fell to the ground, and his body knelt on the peacock platform, only feeling the unbearable pain in his limbs, and the blood from those wounds was gushing out, as if it was pulling away from his body and life. The enemy that suddenly appeared in front of him was so powerful, he didn't need to ask, he knew who it was.

"You won't know where I'm from...... Hehe! But I know who you are. Gangnam Jizi? It's amazing! ”

There was blood at the corner of his mouth, and he replied indifferently. He regretted it a little. Although he had long known that Chu Jiangmian was protected by a master by his side, he used such an unexpected means to assassinate. But he still underestimated the other party's strength after all. I didn't expect Chu Jiangmian to be so cautious and cunning. If it weren't for the soft armor he had, the knife would have been successful.

Ji Zi didn't have the patience to say anything more to him. If he had followed his temper, he would have been beheaded with a sword a long time ago. But since Chu Jiangmian asked him to stay alive just now, he didn't bother to meddle anymore. Seeing that the army of Qi had quickly controlled the situation, and there were no suspicious movements around, he turned around and nodded to Chu Jiangmian. Then, the negative sword stepped aside.

The thrilling scene that just happened was not long. From the assassin drawing his sword to being subdued by Lao Ji's sword, it is a few breaths away.

Chu Jiangmian smacked his lips and gave Lao Ji a thumbs up. The queen mother let him follow her, which was really the wisest choice. Seeing that the assassin was already seriously wounded, it was difficult to pose a threat again. He pushed away Bai Ye and the others who were nervously crowded in front, and came over to check on King Qi's situation first.

Tian Jiang, the king of Qi, was already surrounded by his ministers and several princes. He was already old and a little obese. He was very frightened just now, and with the chaos of people surrounding him, all the factors combined, and he actually fainted.

Several sons who ran over to show their loyalty at the first time were all scared silly. They hurriedly urged loudly to hurry up and call the medical officer, while shouting around King Qi in a mess, trying to wake him up.

"Don't crowd all over here! Spread out quickly, the patient needs fresh air ....... ”

It was also in this panic that someone pushed away the crowd and walked over. He spoke in a loud voice, but firmly. Leaning over beside King Qi and shaking his arm vigorously, Gongzi Tianxian was not angry, he shook his hand and pushed it back, and reprimanded unceremoniously.

"Fuck off! Before the medical officer arrives, no one is allowed to talk nonsense! ”

After he finished scolding him, he suddenly noticed something abnormal, and the surroundings seemed to be quiet. Tian Xian raised his head for some reason, but saw Qi Guoxiang, who was standing up opposite, glaring at him. The eldest son, who was trying something in his heart, turned around suddenly, only to find that it was Zhao Wang Chu Jiangmian who had just spoken. And the other party didn't seem to hear his unreasonable words, and didn't even look at him, he squatted down directly, reached out and grabbed King Qi's wrist, and after a while, his brows furrowed slightly.

"King Qi's pulse is stable, and there is no big problem. He was only frightened and temporarily unconscious. You should be escorted back to the palace as soon as possible, and placed in a quiet and ventilated place, and you will wake up soon. ”

Lan Lingjun, who came over closely, heard Chu Jiangmian's command and hurriedly agreed. I don't know why, he has absolute trust in this young man. The situation is critical, and as the younger brother of the king, he should naturally take the responsibility of dealing with everything. He didn't bother to ask Chu Jiangmian in detail if he was injured, but just patted the other party's shoulder heavily, and everything was silent.

There were already attendants who had already obeyed the order to hurry up and raise their shoulders, and several palace medical officers were also rushing to the scene. Under such circumstances, King Qi naturally couldn't move easily. In the space of waiting, the wounded Assassin had been bound and tightly guarded. And there are special ministers in charge of the royal court with people to appease the people, so that everyone does not need to be nervous, so as not to cause unnecessary panic.

"You...... It doesn't matter to you, isn't it hurt?! ”

Chu Jiangmian felt that someone tugged at his sleeve, and when he looked back, he encountered a pair of bright eyes full of concern looking at him nervously. The hands twisted around the hem of his shirt, looking very uneasy.

"I'm fine. It's just that this dress can't be worn...... Hehe! ”

Chu Jiangmian smiled faintly. Gently grab the other person's wrist and signal her to let go. Princess Sanssouci hurriedly relaxed her hand. Having witnessed the ferocity of the assassin in the distance, her heart almost jumped out. If it weren't for being held back by Queen Wuyan, she would have drawn her sword desperately and rushed forward.

"I'm relieved if it's okay. Clothes...... I'll get it ready for you right away. ”

Princess Sanssouci glanced at Chu Jiangmian again. Seeing the clothes on his chest in tatters, you can imagine the edge of the assassin's blade, and he finally felt terrified. Then he whispered again.

"If your father is fine, you can stay in the Qi country for a little longer......."

"I'm afraid not. The smoke in Zhongzhou is rising again, and the plan is about to be disrupted...... Alas! ”

Princess Sanssouci raised her head in surprise and saw the helpless wry smile on Chu Jiangmian's face.
