Chapter 12: Assassination
In the night, a carriage was moving slowly, a horse, a cart, and a coachman. In the boundless night sky, the carriage in which Yu Qingling was located looked very thin.
Suddenly, a "rustling" sound came to Yu Qingling's ears, people who practice martial arts see six ways and listen to all directions, for a master like Yu Qingling, sensitive reaction ability is a must. Even though Yu Qingling's martial arts skills were completely lost, her reflexes did not decrease at all.
Yu Qingling frowned, although those people had tried to slow down as much as possible, Yu Qingling could still hear clearly, there were quite a few people, and they had already surrounded her.
Yu Qingling clenched her hands, if it was before, Yu Qingling was naturally not afraid, but now that she has lost her martial arts, she is afraid that it will be difficult to protect herself, what should I do? She was flustered inside, she grew up in the barracks. The more flustered he is, the calmer he looks.
One step, two steps, three steps.
"Ahh Yu Qingling heard a scream from the coachman outside, and blood was scattered on the curtain.
The group cautiously approached the carriage, then together raised their swords and stabbed into the curtain.
Unexpectedly, the carriage was empty, and there was no one in it, so they immediately scattered in all directions, looking everywhere for Yu Qingling's location.
"Why is there no one?" A man in black whispered.
"We were watching her get into the carriage, how could it be that she disappeared out of thin air? It must be nearby, keep your eyes open and see clearly. The other man in black replied in the affirmative.
Yes, Yu Qingling had already left the carriage from behind when the coachman died, but there were men in black on all sides, and Yu Qingling couldn't leave. She was secretly shocked that there were so many people, and all she noticed was the people in the inner periphery, and there were still a lot of people in the periphery.
Yu Qingling was hiding in the grass next to her at the moment, if it wasn't for the darkness, there would be no hiding people there at all. The only thing Yu Qingling can do now is to hide herself and not let them find out.
The people in black searched everywhere, not letting go of a corner, and finally a few people in black wanted to check the grass where Yu Qingling was.
Yu Qingling knew that she couldn't escape, but she felt that even if she died, she couldn't die so ugly, and wanted to stand up and fight with those people in black, but she was grabbed by an arm by a hand and couldn't stand up.
Yu Qingling turned her head to look over and was a little surprised: "Yunhe-kun?" Yunhe made a silent motion, and Yu Qingling realized that her voice was a little louder.
Yunhe whispered, "Follow me." Yunhe took Yu Qingling's hand with one hand, and pulled the Mingyue Sword on Yu Qingling's waist with the other hand, as soon as the sword came out, two black-clothed people immediately fell to the ground, seeing that the obstacle had been cleared, Yunhe was not in love with war, and pulled Yu Qingling out of the encirclement.
Yu Qingling remembered that there were still a lot of assassins on the periphery, and wanted him to deal with it carefully, but when he really arrived at the periphery, he didn't see a single assassin, just a lot of corpses lying around, Yu Qingling asked, "You solved it alone?" Yunhe smiled lazily: "Yes, I can't help it, if I don't kill them, they will kill you." Hearing Yunhe say this, Yu Qingling felt a warm current enter the bottom of his heart, he was for himself.
Away from those black-clothed people, Yunhe's words broke Yu Qingling's warm emotions: "Qingling, your whereabouts have been exposed."
Yu Qingling fell into deep thought: "Yes, these men in black came to assassinate themselves, indicating that their whereabouts have been exposed."
Yunhe said again: "You have to clean up the people around you."
Yu Qingling's face was a little gloomy, and she thought in her heart: "People around me, I have only told Xuanyu about this matter. But it shouldn't be her, if it's really her, then it's too obvious, Xuanyu is not so stupid, who will it be? They even know my whereabouts. Yu Qingling couldn't think that the people around him were all to him, and how could people who were loyal to the Yu clan collude with the Protoss?
couldn't figure it out, so Yu Qingling put down this problem for the time being.
Thinking that all the black-clothed people just now were killed by Yunhe, Yu Qingling asked him with some curiosity: "Their skills are not bad, you can annihilate them all, not a single one is left, I didn't expect your martial arts to be so good."
Speaking of martial arts, Yunhe suddenly remembered Yu Qingling's injury and said: "Don't worry, the red feather poison has been resolved, and the loss of martial arts is only temporary, and it will recover in about half a year, and your skills are profound, it shouldn't take more than half a year."
Yu Qingling nodded and said softly, "Okay." This feeling of being cared for has not been experienced by Yu Qingling for a long time since her mother's death.
Since her mother's death, Yu Qingling seems to have lost a broad and powerful back to support her, leaving her alone to stand on the edge of the cliff, she can only move forward one by one, and cannot turn back.
She should snuggle up in the arms of her parents now, grow up carefree under the strong arms of her parents, and she has to fight the battlefield, every battle has tens of thousands of lives in her hands, every decision is like wandering on the edge of a cliff, a little careless, everyone will fall off the cliff with her, and be crushed.
On the battlefield, Yu Qingling has suffered countless injuries, large and small, and endured severe pain, Yu Qingling has to pretend to be nothing, the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of the commander in the army are all related to the strength of the army's heart, and she does not dare to show her expression easily.
All the pain can only be hidden in the quilt and crying at night when no one is around, and at that time how she wants to have a strong shoulder to protect herself and tell herself: "With me, you should not be afraid of anything." She had been thinking so, but the man never appeared. Until Yu Qingling became stronger little by little and no longer needed the protection of others, she no longer fantasized about the appearance of such a person.
But the person in front of him, Yu Qingling was a little hesitant, because there was a voice in his heart that told him that the man in front of him was probably the person he had been looking forward to in his heart, Yu Qingling was a little sad: "Why did you appear so late, I don't seem to need you anymore." Yu Qingling murmured softly.
Yunhe didn't hear clearly, and asked with some confusion, "What did you say?"
Yu Qingling looked up and saw his deep eyes, such beautiful eyes, she raised her hand to touch those eyes that shone like a galaxy.
was about to touch it, but a hand grabbed her wrist, Yu Qingling realized that she had lost her temper, broke free from Yunhe's hand, turned around, and turned her back to Yunhe.
Yunhe felt that something seemed wrong with Yu Qingling, and put his hand on Yu Qingling's shoulder, but he felt that his thin body seemed to tremble a little, and a soft sobbing reached Yunhe's ears.
Yunhe felt like he had been overpowered, his heartbeat was inexplicably faster, and the responsibilities that were pressing on his heart at this moment were all disturbed by this inexplicable heartbeat, and in front of his eyes, all that was left in his heart was the girl who was sobbing in front of him.
What to do? This question has been echoing in Yunhe's ears, but he can't get an answer. It can only stand there definitely.
This is the first time that Yunhe feels so clumsy, he can't even say a word, not a single action, and can't do it.
Yu Qingling's accumulated grievances and pain for many years disappeared with this burst of sobbing, she was relieved, she was His Royal Highness Ling of the Yu Clan, and when her mother was still there, she was also dedicated to the Yu Clan, fighting in the south and north, and finally died on the battlefield, some things are difficult for her to escape.
Yu Qingling stopped sobbing and turned around, looking at Mumu's Yunhe, and showed a smile.
It's hard for Yunhe to say what kind of smile it is, it's a little miserable but more confident, that confident Yu Qingling is back, Yunhe put his heart down, his heartbeat has resumed, and those responsibilities and purposes are pressed on Yunhe's body again.
Yu Qingling withdrew her smile, her expression was the same, as if the incident just now had not happened at all.
Although her expression was as usual, Yu Qingling's voice still trembled a little, "Yunhe-kun, it will be my birthday in a while, and I will wait for you for Yudu's birthday banquet." ”
Yunhe nodded: "Okay, I will definitely go back." It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, I have arranged a carriage for you, it is very safe, you should leave the Protoss quickly. ”
Yu Qingling saw that Yunhe agreed, her face was happy, and while getting into the carriage, she said in a somewhat playful voice: "Remember to bring me a gift, don't come empty-handed."
Yunhe's tone was a little dissatisfied: "Ah! It's going to cost money again. ”
After saying that, both of them laughed.
The poor people in black searched in this forest all night, but they didn't find Yu Qingling, and so many brothers died inexplicably, and the people in black had no way to deal with it, so they thought of a great way. The people in black spread the word that there were ghosts in that forest.
When Qin Yishuang heard them say that they didn't succeed, he was so angry that he asked them if they were guilty, and they all said vigorously: "We met a ghost, and a lot of brothers died, don't you believe it?" You see, we've all dragged the bodies back. ”
Qin Yishuang has no choice, they have all the evidence and material evidence, the Protoss has always spread the concept of abiding by the law, Qin Yishuang is in a high position, and he must lead by example.
But Qin Yishuang was angry, and it was obvious that Yu Qingling not only escaped, but also killed his subordinates.
Qin Yishuang thought about it for a long time and felt that he couldn't just let them go. Later, those involved in the assassination all died inexplicably at home, and the cause of death is unknown.
Yu Qingling quickly whipped up the horse, and the original twenty-day journey took only twelve days to reach Luoshui Town.
Luoshui Town is still the bustling and prosperous in Yu Qingling's memory, obviously, the war did not bring much damage to Luoshui Town, Yu Qingling sighed lightly, fortunately, this rich city has not been poisoned by the war, Yu Qingling has a feeling that maybe the entire Yu clan will change because of this city.
Xuanyu heard that Yu Qingling was coming back early this morning, and he was overjoyed. Yu Qingling left the royal army, Xuanyu, as the deputy general next to Yu Qingling, was in a high position in the royal army, and most of the affairs in the army were managed by her.
In addition to Xuanyu, there are actually more suitable candidates to lead the royal army, that is, Wei You, Wei Dutong.
But people were unwilling, every time Xuanyu came to ask him for help, Wei You dropped a sentence: "I can't read, so please ask Deputy General Xuan for things in the army."
This is the first time that Xuanyu feels that it is a great thing that he is illiterate!
Xuanyu saw that it was useless to ask Wei Dutong, so he could only pray every day: "His Royal Highness Ling will come back quickly, come back quickly!"
Now, when Xuanyu heard that Yu Qingling had returned, he couldn't sleep at night with excitement, so he waited for a good rest after transferring the work in the army to Yu Qingling.
