"Let's find out who has visited Mrs. Tai today." Out of the palace gate, Zhao Yong quietly said to the joy beside him. Xi's eyes were shocked, he bowed his head and retreated.

Zhao Yong looked at Xi's back, and slowly walked to his palace with his hands in his hands. The moonlight is slightly cool, and the royal city at night looks particularly deserted. Longtai is the tallest building in the entire Handan City, he can see the Great North City not far away from the corridor, and there are still a little lights, it should be the night market that has not yet dispersed, and it is still operating in stalls. Handan is one of the few cities that does not have a curfew, which also depends on the developed commercial level of Zhao. So the people in the city, the nightlife is still very rich.

He looked at the cold palace and felt that this place was a little out of place for him. He didn't like the feeling of coldness, especially now. The future he is looking for is a direction that he does not even know himself, and most of the historical reforms he knows have been put to naught.

And now, I have just taken a test step, and someone is already trying to stumble on me. Fortunately, Mrs. Tai is not the kind of woman who likes to interfere in political affairs, otherwise, it will inevitably distract Zhao Yong.

But from this point, Zhao Yong also clearly realized that the cause he instigated may be very difficult, even if it becomes the same as Shang Yang in the end, it is unknown. He still hasn't figured out why he just crossed over to here, just hoping that he won't die, but why, such a wish, needs to carry so many things?

"Your Majesty, it's cold, it's time to go back to the palace and go to bed." A eunuch behind him urged.

Zhao Yong nodded, he was used to this kind of appearance of a large group of people everywhere he went, but he also began to get tired of this look.

Walking to the dormitory, Zhao Yong took off his clothes under the service of the palace people. The two palace people had their eyebrows and eyes full of spring, and while slowly undressing for him, they moved their hands and feet to him, and rubbed him from time to time, and the jade hand was swaying on the back of his hand from time to time.

In fact, this is also a normal situation, the two palace people are women who have served Zhao Yong for two years, and they are not very old. Although I have time to go home every month, and I can even marry someone else's wife, no matter how good the outside is, it is not as good as this royal city, after all, there is no need to worry about food and clothing here, and the family can still get a fortune. And no matter how poor he is, he can live here after giving birth to a son and a half daughter.

What's more, Zhao Yong himself is also a heroic man, and the most important thing is that there is no woman by his side now, if he can be lucky, he will definitely change his fate immediately. Of course, the eldest lady is hopeless, but it is also a very good choice to be able to become a deputy concubine, once she takes the lead in giving birth to a son, then her status may not surpass the concubines and concubines in front of her, and she is on an equal footing with her wife.

Besides, who believes that a man of Zhao Yong's age is not interested in women?

In fact, Zhao Yong, who is used to living a drunken life, really doesn't have that kind of mind. Of course, it's not because these two women are not good-looking, it can even be said that they are used to seeing heavy makeup in the future, and it is fake to say that they are not impressed when they see such a pure natural woman. However, he was really not in the mood now, and waved his hand to let the two of them retreat.

Looking at the disappointed expressions of the two people, Zhao Yong smiled helplessly and lay on the bed. Slowly, ready to fall asleep.

The night was as cold as water, and the eunuchs outside the door were also a little sleepy, only the black-clothed guards who were waiting outside were still in good spirits. They are all loyal men selected from the Zhao clan and are responsible for protecting Longtai. It has always been the elite of Handan City before, but since the Arrow Ridge camp was rectified by Zhao Yong, the garrison of Arrow Ridge has become an existence comparable to the black-clothed guards.

Zhao Yi was wearing armor and holding a short sword, and took the younger brothers behind him to patrol in Dragon City. After Zhao Guang was promoted to the chief military officer of Jianjian Ridge, Zhao Yong did not choose the guards at random, but selected them from the existing black-clothed guards, and in the end, Zhao Yi was selected.

He is not a descendant of a larger branch of the clan like Zhao Bao Zhao Cheng, it belongs to the Shu clan, if it weren't for his relationship with the Zhao family, he would not be qualified to be this black-clothed guard, even so, it also allowed his early widowed mother to use all the assets of the family, so that he dredged up the relationship and entered the ranks of the black-clothed guards.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Yi has developed such a tenacious character, and he is also grateful for Zhao Yong's trust, and he has also trained his brothers a lot. It is indispensable to practice a little every day and a big practice every three days. And his excellent martial arts also made these arrogant sons of the clan have to be convinced.

In fact, most of the children in the black-clothed guards belong to distant relatives, they are all a Shu clan, and they don't have any fiefdoms. Those who had fiefdoms made Zhao Yong find a reason to leave this team one after another, and quietly purged this henchman army and took it into his own hands. He doesn't like it when someone leaks his whereabouts to outsiders at any time.

"Boss, I've been patrolling several times, it's almost, it's quiet today, not even a cricket." The younger brother behind him complained.

"What's the matter, itchy again?" Zhao Yi said humorously.

"Don't, Boss, don't get me wrong, I mean, let's rest for a while, and come out later. What can happen on a day like this? What's more, there are brothers on duty at the entrance of each hall, so you still don't worry. ”

"Reassured? Don't worry, you can't relax. We all have a major stake, even if every brick and tile is lost in this royal city, you and I are both responsible. Zhao Yi said angrily.

"Alas, it's okay, don't talk about losing a brick and tile, even if you lose a stone today, your old man will try to ask me. Besides, just take a break for a cup of tea, and the brothers just find a place to rest. ”

Zhao Yi glanced back at the few brothers behind him, they were indeed a little tired, he groaned slightly, and said, "Then ....."

Before he finished speaking, a rapid gong sound came from the side of the dormitory, a trace of fear flashed in Zhao Yi's eyes, and he ran towards the dormitory without thinking about it, and he was afraid in his heart, don't do anything. The little brothers behind him didn't care about complaining, so they ran to the dormitory, in case something really happened to Zhao Yong, their heads would be considered to leave this world in advance.

On the dormitory, Zhao Yong brandished a short sword, looked at the black-clothed man in front of him with serious eyes, and carefully observed his steps and actions. In fact, he is not used to the porcelain pillow now, and the pillow he wants has not been ready, so he can only make do with it first, so he doesn't sleep deeply.

He noticed something was wrong when he heard someone outside fall to the ground with a muffled grunt, and then he heard the shouts of the guards outside and the sound of weapons clashing. He immediately got up, took off the short sword from the head of the bed, and was just about to get up to check, when he saw the door of the palace wide open, and a man in black broke in with agility, and rushed over at Zhao Yong without saying a word, completely ignoring the fact that there was a group of guards behind him.

Zhao Yong couldn't think about it at the moment, so he hurriedly swung his sword to resist. He also learned some swordsmanship with Que Guanzi, and Pang Cong and Li Zhuo also taught him some self-defense skills on weekdays. In fact, his own education also has some basic swordsmanship practice, and after the guidance of three people, he can't say how high-level he is, but there is no problem in self-preservation on the battlefield. Even on weekdays, as long as you don't meet a swordsman, you can still last for about ten minutes.

So he wasn't very scared, watching the man in black's short sword stabbing at him, he took a step back and swung his sword to block. The other party took advantage of his retreat, rubbed his body forward, and the short sword that was blocked turned around and swept towards Zhao Yong's chest. Zhao Yong had to continue to take a step back, and then took advantage of his old posture to strike back and stab him in the chest. The other party reacted faster than Zhao Yong imagined, and quickly changed his posture and swung his sword at Zhao Yong's short sword. turned around again and rushed towards Zhao Yong's arms.

It was the first time Zhao Yong had seen such a light attack, especially when the opponent's attack was always rubbing forward, with a posture of fighting for his life, which made Zhao Yong full of scruples. But the other party didn't seem to be ruthless to Zhao Yong, and always stopped at the point.

At the same time, the black-clothed guards behind him held Changge, not daring to move forward at all, lest they accidentally hurt Zhao Yong. He could only form a circle, see if the assassin showed any flaws, and then step forward to turn the tide of the battle.

When Zhao Yi broke into the dormitory, he saw Zhao Yong fighting against the assassin. Without saying a word, he jumped into the battle group and protected Zhao Yong, without thinking about it, he swung his sword at the assassin's short sword.

He has a lot of strength, and this move is also used with all his strength, and he can't avoid it. The Assassin received a sudden blow, and the tiger was so strained that his dagger almost fell off, but he also took a few steps back, and his feet were unstable. Zhao Yi saw the opportunity, didn't think about continuing to step forward, in Zhao Yong's voice of "stay alive", he continued to swing his sword with all his strength, sweeping towards the opponent's short sword, only to hear Cang Chang's sound, the opponent's short sword fell out of his hand.

The so-called one force will drop ten times, in non-master-level fights, people with great strength are still very advantageous. Zhao Yi saw that the opponent's short sword was out of his hand, and took the opportunity to slap the opponent's shoulder with a palm, only to hear the opponent snort and fall to the ground. The black-clad guards hurriedly stepped forward and surrounded him.

Zhao Yi put away the short sword, turned around and saw Zhao Yong, and knelt down in shame: "The minister is guilty of capital crimes, and he failed to protect the safety of the king, which frightened the king." ”

Zhao Yong didn't have the heart to cure his crime at the moment, he walked a few steps quickly and walked in front of the assassin. And the other party, there didn't seem to be a trace of panic in his eyes, but looked at him with some joy. Zhao Yong was a little puzzled, "Who are you?" Why assassinate Lone. "This is the first time I've been assassinated. It's all false to say that there is no fear.

The other party was silent.

Zhao Yong was angry in his heart and drank: "Take off his veil for me." ”

Zhao Yi didn't think about it, and stepped forward to remove his veil. Unexpectedly, he saw a peerless face, the charm between the eyebrows and eyes, and the eyes like autumn water, which teased Zhao Yi's heart, and he couldn't help but say in his heart: "It's so beautiful." ”

"Is that you?" Zhao Yong looked at the true face of the assassin and said with surprise and joy.

"Of course it's me, I didn't expect it, this is your hospitality." Wen Ji staggered to her feet, wiped the blood from her mouth, and said coquettishly.
