Chapter 455: Assassination

Zhang Minzhu is the master in the end, and his words still have some weight, Liu Tong promised not to seize the firearms of the Ming army again, but the artillery cannot continue to be placed on the ships of the Ming army, if the Ming army takes the opportunity to seize the ship, it will be a great threat to them.

Zhang Minzhu walked behind Ma Du and asked, "What does Ma Hou think of General Liu's suggestion?" You're going to land on the island anyway, aren't you? ”

Ma Du was naturally reluctant in his heart, but the pit was dug by himself, and he had to jump down if he broke his leg, "Okay, it's better to trouble the princess's people to carry the cannon to the top of the mountain." I'm going back to the ship to see if you've treated my brothers badly. ”

Zhang Minzhu immediately refused, "You can't get on the boat, who knows if you will cooperate with them to plot against the palace, but you can call someone to come over and ask you to see if the palace treats them harshly, well, just call the stupidest one." ”

"No need, I can still trust the princess's character." Ma Du was very worried that Zhang Wuliu's unreliable statement showed his mouth.

"Ma Hou can come down, your legs are trembling all the time, if you really fall, it's not good."

It seems that in order to express her apology, Zhang Minzhu made dinner very hearty and made a pot of wine. He hadn't eaten a decent meal since he was a prisoner, and regardless of Zhang Minzhu's contemptuous gaze, Ma Du ate his stomach bulging and went back to his room to sleep.

Maybe he ate too much, he didn't sleep well at night, and his stomach was also overturned, he opened his eyes helplessly, and was about to get up to squat in the thatched house, but he heard a creak, the door was opened, the cold moonlight entered the house, and a figure was reflected on the ground.

Ma Du's heart couldn't help but be startled, the cold hair on his body stood up, and as soon as he rolled his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a dark figure tiptoeing towards his bedside, and in his hand was a bright knife light.

Calm down! Calm down! Ma Du was shocked in his heart, the intention of almost snatching the door just now was gone, his body was secretly tense, squinting his eyes to observe the every move of the comer.

The black shadow tiptoed to the bed, took a breath, and the knife in his hand was raised, and it slashed towards Ma Du on the bed.

Naturally, he would not be willing to die, and the legs that came with his strength flew out violently, kicking the man's crotch fiercely, and his knife had not yet fallen on Ma Du's body, it had already flown out on its back, and fell heavily to the ground, falling on all sides, and the long knife in his hand also fell to the ground with a bang.

The man was about to get up, but there was a cold iron chain wrapped around his neck, and a strong force came from his shoulder, and the iron chain stretched out vigorously around his neck, trying to pull his head off, and a strong feeling of suffocation followed, and his eyes were dark and he no longer had any consciousness.

Zhang Minzhu almost couldn't believe her eyes, she had always thought that Ma Du was a cynical and treacherous nobleman, she really couldn't imagine that he was tied hand and foot with iron chains, and he could easily kill a good hand in the army, that person had been strangled and twisted neck, which showed how ruthless he was when he shot.

Ma Du's face was slightly red, and his breath had not yet evened out, he looked at Zhang Minzhu and said, "If Your Highness wants to kill me, why do you have to be so sneaky." ”

Zhang Minzhu shook her head slightly, "You also said that there is no need for this palace to kill you so secretly, but they are all subordinates of this palace, and this palace doesn't seem to be able to pick it up." Then she said to the guards, "Go and see who this man is!" ”

The guard turned the corpse over, glanced at it, and said, "This person is General Liu's personal soldier Liu Er!" ”

Ma Du sneered, "It seems that General Liu has a grudge against Ben Hou because he didn't get the firearms." ”

Zhang Minzhu's face was a little gloomy, and he gritted his silver teeth and said, "Go and call Liu Tong over!" ”

Soon Liu Tong was called over, and as soon as he saw the corpse on the ground, he immediately exclaimed, "Liu Er, Liu Er, what's wrong with you!" ”

He raised his head and looked at Ma Du and said viciously: "You killed Liu Er?" See if I don't kill you! As he spoke, he went to draw his waist knife.

Zhang Minzhu snorted, "Liu Tong, do you still take me seriously!" The black and delicate pistol in his hand pointed at Liu Tong at the same time.

Liu Tong probably guessed that it was a firearm, so he stopped moving and said, "Princess, but he killed Liu Er!" ”

"It was Liu Er who came to kill him, he was just defending himself!" Zhang Minzhu said bitterly: "Liu Tong, do you really want to cut off the bloodline of your father?" ”

Liu Tong was stunned, "What does the princess mean by this?" The princess thinks I sent Liu Er over to kill this dog thief? ”

"Liu Er is your personal soldier, and he usually only listens to you alone, so it is difficult that I instructed him."

Liu Tong was speechless for a while, "This ...... This...... I really didn't instigate this. ”

Chen Erhai walked in from outside the door, pointed at Ma Du and said to Liu Daodao: "General Liu, this thief deserves to die, but it is not as important as the prince's incense, so be patient." ”

"It's really not my order, why does the princess blindly defend outsiders, but she can't trust her own people. Although I Liu Tong doesn't know a few big characters, I'm not a fool, don't think that the princess will put someone next to me, don't think I don't know, hum! ”

Although Zhang Minzhu has scheming to the end, the young woman was exposed by Liu Tong, and her face turned red suddenly, "Liu Tong, do you still have any rules." ”

Liu Tong did not show weakness, "I called you a princess because of the prince's affection, but I definitely didn't let you use this name to suppress me, since the princess thinks I am in the way, I will go home and not mix." ”

He flicked his sleeves, and as soon as he went out, several steel knives were on his neck, one of which was Chen Erhai's, Liu Tong said angrily: "Chen Erhai, what do you want to do!" ”

Zhang Min also said: "Uncle, I have something to say, since General Liu doesn't want to stay here, let him go home." ”

Chen Erhai sneered: "Princess, Liu Tong has already committed a crime, and he already has a heart of disobedience, if he goes home and rebels against you, where should the princess live." The more than 1,000 people who stayed at home were all his men. ”

Zhang Minzhu shook his head, "This palace and General Liu are just a temporary quarrel, not as serious as my uncle said, so let's let General Liu go first." ”

Chen Erhai said: "The princess is tolerant, but this is not the time, it is better to wait for the matter here to be over, and then it is not too late to let him go." ”

Zhang Minzhu hesitated and said: "Hold him here first, so as not to make trouble with his own soldiers, General Liu, you can be wronged for the time being." ”

"Humph! The princess is so benevolent! Liu's call was full of sarcasm.

Chen Erhai asked people to tie him up and lock him up in a dilapidated house.

Zhang Minzhu said: "Let Ma Hou be frightened, it's not dawn yet, you can continue to rest." ”

"Don't go, I'm afraid!"

"Ma Hou rest assured, this palace will send more people to guard it, and no one will stab you again."

Ma Du shook his head again and again, "It's not this, someone just died here, I'm afraid of ghosts!" ”
