[46th round] Entanglement North Courtyard to observe the situation
Jiang Chengjia then knew why Dou Yueshan refused to tell her the truth.
It turned out that Ning Zheng sent a dead soldier to put her to death.
These masked men in white shirts and green armor, she didn't need to speculate much to know that they were sent by Ning Zheng.
During the trip to Linhe, King Huai, who was originally in control, suffered such a big setback, and he must have been confused in his heart.
The first person to suspect was her.
Regardless of whether His Majesty personally named her the lord of Chengping County, whether she had the intention to get close to Ning Nan and steal the news of Jiang Mansion and His Majesty's theft of Huai Wangfu, whether she knew the reason for the failure of Linhe's trip or not, as long as she was the sister of Jiang Chengyi, the head of the East Mansion, she would be suspected by Ning Zheng.
However, when the dozens of dead soldiers in white shirts and green armor surrounded the north courtyard and pressed towards her house, Jiang Chengjia did not have the slightest fear. On the contrary, she was very calm, and after seeing all this from the paper window, she calmly returned to the bed, tilted her head and closed her eyes, and continued to rest.
White shirt and green armor, with a silver sword in his hand, fierce and vicious.
When these dozens of people drew their swords and pressed towards the main house of the north courtyard, a masked man wearing a dark blue armor robe suddenly fell from the sky on the long eaves of the green tiles of the horizontal ditch. He stood on the ridge of the roof with one foot, holding the long sword in his arms, and his eyes exposed outside the veil were cold, staring at the group of dead soldiers in white shirts and green armor under the house, looking motionless.
Among the dead soldiers, the leader waved his hand behind him, and there was a ** dead soldier who jumped on the eaves and fought with the man in the dark blue armor, the double armor flew into the sky, the sword cold light was staggered, and the white light stabbed the opponent's vital point everywhere, but he cleverly dodged, and the battle lasted for more than a dozen rounds, and he never saw the ** dead soldier hurt the dark blue armor at all.
The dead soldier of the leader took the rest of the people, wanted to break out of the door, catch Jiang Chengjia, kill him with a sword, and rushed to the door A few steps later, he saw another man wearing a gray-white jacket with a cotton silk curved robe, and his clothes always looked a little old, and he jumped down from the porch and blocked in front of them, and said with a smile: "Stop, where do you want to go?" ”
The leader's face turned sideways, and he ordered in a low voice: "There is no forgiveness for killing!" ”
Behind him, the dead soldiers surrounded in all directions swarmed up.
The sound of swords rubbing outside was a little noisy, Jiang Chengjia lowered the curtain and rolled inside, sleeping under the quilt, as if he didn't care about the grim situation outside the house.
I saw that on the eaves, the man in the dark blue armor was fighting with the ** dead man with ease, and the flowing moves did not hesitate at all, and the long sword in his hand was facing each other with the back of the knife, so as not to hurt the lives of these people for the time being.
And the gray-white figure under the corridor swirled in the center of a dozen dead soldiers, like a phantom that made them unable to catch a corner of their clothes, and could only follow this person around.
After a few moments, the woman in the room slept a little dazed, but the door was slammed open.
Startled, she opened her eyes and looked at the ceiling with a faint sigh.
This group of dead soldiers fought desperately, and after seeing that several fights were unsuccessful, they became even more crazy. After all, the wind and the candle shadow are just two people, as the so-called two fists are invincible to four hands, let alone face a group of dead soldiers who have gone crazy. They stuck to the front of the house, struggling to resist.
Jiang Chengjia frowned slightly, turned the begonia jade bracelet on his wrist, turned slightly sideways, emerged from the curtain tent, glanced at the situation outside, and took a stone from somewhere in his hand, seemingly unintentionally, but in fact it was precisely aimed at the leader of the dead soldiers who rushed to the forefront and slashed at the candle shadow in the wind outside the house and specifically slashed at the candle shadow.
A pale black line shot out of the room and rolled down exactly as it fell to the soles of the leader's feet.
I saw that the man was holding a silver sword, and he was jumping up to give the candle shadow a heavy blow, but his feet suddenly slipped for some reason, and he was shocked in his heart, and before he could stand firmly, he suddenly fell in front of the wind.
It was he who fell like this, and the white-shirted young men who rushed up behind him fell forward because of the weight of the heavy armor, and they all fell into a ball.
Seeing this scene, the breeze and the candle shadow were a little dumbfounded, so they immediately met each other, silently made eye contact, immediately picked up the long sword, and while these dead soldiers were struggling to get up from the ground, they hit the back of the necks of this group of dead soldiers with the hilt of the sword in turn, and after a while, they all knocked out the people who were hugging in front. Then he jumped down the steps and fought with several other people in the courtyard.
After the man at the head of the dead soldiers was taken down, the dead soldiers who rushed up behind him were like a group of dragons without a leader, and they were also quite deficient in tactical play, and they were soon caught by the candle shadow and the wind, and gradually lost the wind.
But the thirty or so dead soldiers sent by Ning Zheng did not all huddle in front of the house, and two teams of five or six people took advantage of the front to fight, won the leader's life, and quietly sneaked in through the window of the side corridor of the north courtyard.
There was a black shadow scurrying in the side window, although it was only for a moment, but Jiang Cheng knew that another wave of people planned to outflank from the back of the north courtyard and break through the window. Love to nibble on books
At this moment, Qian Shan, who heard the movement, took six or seven martial guards, and quietly came behind the two waves of dead soldiers.
This sudden attack made these dead soldiers in white shirts and green armor confused, and when they turned around to fight Qian Shan and the others, they lost the opportunity.
However, the dead soldiers of the Huai Wangfu were not weak, although they were skillfully reversed by the candle shadow, the wind and Qianshan, and became a disadvantage, but they quickly counter-pressed to win. Three white-shirted Qingjia even broke through the window, and almost swung their swords at Jiang Chengjia, but they were blocked by Qian Shan in time.
When there was a commotion outside the house, the moment the incense was burned and extinguished in the house, it was quiet.
The time for two full incense sticks was more than double the time for Candle Shadow, Breeze, and Qianshan to join forces to solve the siege or assassination. It is enough to see how strong the force of the dead soldiers under the Huai Wang's Mansion is.
After a tough battle, the three of them led a platoon of thirteen martial guards to stand in front of the main house, slightly tired.
Fortunately, the people inside were safe and sound, but the courtyard had been dilapidated by a fight.
Jiang Chengjia got up from the couch, held his sore waist, and walked out of the house steadily, staring coldly at the pile of fainting dead soldiers in front of the house, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said: "King Huai, you really look up to me, and you actually sent more than 30 dead soldiers?" ”
According to her orders, Candle Shadow and the others did not hurt the lives of the more than 30 dead soldiers, but only knocked them all unconscious.
"Girl, what should we do with these people?" Qianshan asked.
Jiang Chengjia didn't answer her words, but glanced at the reddish-brown figure hiding outside the courtyard, and called softly: "Zi said? Are you outside the hospital? ”
Dou Yueshan heard her call, her heart couldn't help but tremble slightly, so she popped her head out and looked inside, and smiled embarrassedly but politely: "Sister-in-law..."
Jiang Chengjia saw that there seemed to be someone else behind him, so he frowned and walked towards the moon gate in front of the courtyard. I saw Dou Yueshan leading another team of elite guards standing outside the courtyard.
She asked, "You got the order of the prince?" ”
Dou Yueshan nodded in response: "Before Brother Zhaoyuan went out, he specially ordered Lu Xun to hand over the order to me. If you notice that there is danger in the house, you will immediately send troops to protect the house. ”
Jiang Chengjia then asked: "In other words, Zi Yue just led the Jing Inspector Guard outside the courtyard and waited for two pillars of incense dryly?" ”
Dou Yueshan touched her head, and said helplessly: "Sister-in-law, don't blame, my brother has no force, leading the Jing Du Wei to stand outside the courtyard, watching my sister-in-law's people fight effortlessly, I forgot to call the Jing Du Wei behind me to help." ”
Jiang Chengjia paused and said, "I know the reason why you don't let Jing Duwei interfere, but you prefer to wait outside the courtyard. Like you, I feel that it is not appropriate for the Jing Inspector to interfere in this matter. Since King Huai dared to take my life so blatantly this time, he was not afraid that the prince would fall out with him, on the contrary, he wanted to take advantage of this matter to provoke the prince to transfer more Jing Du Wei Mansion, so as to seize the handle of the Jun Hou, saying that he had violated his oath and used this matter as an excuse to meddle in the internal affairs of Jing Du Wei. ”
She didn't dare to forget that Ning Nan worried about what agreement she had with Ning Zheng.
Ning Nan Wei once promised Ning Zheng: Although this Jing Du Wei is in charge of the world's affairs, it must be used by Ning Zheng. Jing Duwei would never save anyone other than Ning Zheng's father and son.
This is the same as Ning Nankun tying her up to Quanling and forcing Ning Nan to call the Jing Governor to save her. Ning Zheng also wanted to test Ning Nan in the same way, one was to see if he was really confused by Jiang Chengjia, and he did not hesitate to break his previous oath to save her. The second is to know, how many Jing Inspectors can be transferred by Ning Nanwei at any time?
And Dou Yueshan also knew this clearly, and she didn't dare to act rashly. For fear that because of the use of Jing Du Wei, he would cause more trouble for Ning Nan. But he also knew that if something happened to Jiang Chengjia, Ning Nan would be desperate and turn against Ning Zheng at this time. So Dou Yueshan could only lead the Jing Du Wei to wait outside the courtyard, not daring to leave, if it couldn't hold it inside, she would order the Jing Du Wei to come to the rescue.
He knew that Jiang Chengjia was a person from the Water Pavilion, and he had a position of great importance in this No. 1 merchant gang of the Great Wei Dynasty, and there must be a martial guard of the Water Pavilion by his side to protect him secretly, so he would not endanger his life, so he would have the confidence to wait for observation outside the hospital.
Seeing that Jiang Chengjia guessed his concerns, Dou Yueshan said with some embarrassment on her face: "Sister-in-law will blame my brother... Only thought about Brother Zhaoyuan, and did not take into account the safety of some people in the North Courtyard? ”
I saw the petite and weak woman in front of me, holding her waist, smiling, and said softly: "Zi said, you are the same monarch and marquis, but you are brothers who worship the same ancestor three times, drink blood, and share weal and woe." Think of him as he is. And I have my own water pavilion secret guard to protect me, and I will never hurt myself. Therefore, there is nothing wrong with your concerns. What you are doing is right. ”
Dou Yueshan was slightly surprised, and heard Jiang Chengjia say: "The prince is the most precious treasure in the world to me. Without him, there would be no more Jiang Chengjia in this world. Zi said, can my sister-in-law ask you for something? ”
