Chapter 1063: Chaos
On the third floor of the North Lookout Tower, everyone was talking and laughing, Dong Shizhen seemed to be very happy about Chu Huan's coming, and toasted Chu Huan again and again, as if Chu Huan was the protagonist of this birthday banquet.
"Steamed fish head ......!" A voice sounded at the top of the stairs, only to see a man holding a wooden plate, on top of the wooden plate, there was a steaming steamed fish head, Dong Shizhen had already gotten up and beckoned: "Come on, come on, over here." ”
The man came over with a wooden plate, and Dong Shizhen had already said with a smile: "My lord, this is the signature dish of Beiwanglou, steamed fish head ......!" He said to the man, "You are the chef in the North Watchtower?" ”
The man nodded and said, "Back to the adult, the small one is the chef here, and this steamed fish head is cooked by the villain himself!" ”
"Bring it over and let the Governor taste it." Dong Shizhen hurriedly opened up, everyone saw it, thinking that the relationship between Dong Shizhen and Chu Huan was not good before, maybe Dong Shizhen also felt that it was not appropriate to go toe-for-tat with the governor, so he wanted to use this birthday banquet to have a good relationship with Chu Huan.
The man stepped forward and put down the wooden plate, the long dish, with the steaming steamed fish head, the aroma was overflowing, especially the fish head, which occupied almost the entire dish, and it was indeed worthy of the name of the big-headed fish.
"Master Dong, today is the old lady's birthday banquet, and this fish head should be dedicated to the old lady." Chu Huan said with a smile: "If this first one is placed here in this governor, it will be a bit noisy." ”
Dong Shizhen hurriedly smiled and said: "My lord is polite, my father was very happy to learn that my lord went to the banquet in person today, and I wanted to give this first fish head to my lord." ”
Chu Huan smiled: "It's really a bit unpleasant to go like this. ”
Dong Shizhen had already instructed the chef: "The Governor admires your craft very much, I heard that this steamed fish head, looking at the northwest, only you make the most authentic?" ”
"The small ones don't dare to exaggerate, but in Yuezhou, the small ones really can't find a more skilled cook than the small ones." The chef said confidently: "This fish head, successfully cooked, requires seven processes, and several condiments need to be added......!" Stretching out his finger and pointing at the fish head, "Look, my lord, the meat of this fish head is very tender, the heat must be mastered to the best, and the cooking time must be strictly controlled......!" ”
Chu Huan seemed to be listening carefully, bowing his head slightly.
Dong Shizhen heard the chef's introduction, and he was silent, he had already taken two steps back, his small eyes narrowed into a slit, and the corners of his eyes were obliquely towards Dongfang Xin, only to see Dongfang Xin sitting in the banquet, and seemed to be listening carefully, but he clearly saw that the corners of Dongfang Xin's eyes were twitching slightly, and there was a faint look in his eyes.
There was a "click" sound.
Before the guests could react, the roof of the third floor suddenly cracked, and between the lightning and flint, a black shadow had fallen from the sky, and the black scarf mask flew down.
Dongfang Xin's expression tightened, his eyes flashed with joy, and before everyone could react, Dong Shizhen had already taken two steps back and exclaimed: "It's not good, there are assassins!" ”
Almost at the same time, the chef's hand reached out, and a finger pointed at the mouth of the fish's head, and the mouth of the fish opened, and he probed one finger directly into the mouth of the fish.
The black-clothed assassin who came down from the sky, holding a sharp knife, was falling directly above Chu Huan, Chu Huan's expression tightened, his eyes crossed sharply, his attention was not on the top of his head, but focused on the chef, when the chef's fingers probed into the fish's mouth, Chu Huan screamed, it seemed that he had already prepared, and dodged sideways.
"Woooo
After the chef's fingers poked into the fish's mouth, from within the fish's head, several cold stars hit Chu Huan, but Chu Huan's dodging was amazing, and he had already prepared, and his body had already moved before his fingers penetrated into the fish's mouth.
"Ding Ding Ding" sounded a few times, and the cold stars that came out of the fish head all disappeared into the wall behind Chu Huan, and the chef obviously didn't expect Chu Huan to be prepared, let alone Chu Huan's dodge so quickly, and his eyes flashed with surprise.
Dongfang Xin's eyes did not pay attention to the chef, but stared at the black-clothed assassin who fell from the sky for the first time, and saw the black-clothed assassin falling from the top of Chu Huan's head, Dongfang Xin clenched his fists, and his eyes were full of excitement, but soon, the look in his eyes changed instantly, showing surprise.
He could see at a glance that the black-clothed assassin who fell from the sky, that figure was Zhao Xin, according to the original plan, Zhao Xin's goal was to take Chu Huan directly, but at this time he found that Zhao Xin did not attack Chu Huan, at the moment when Chu Huan dodged the hidden weapon, the black-clothed assassin had already landed on the case, kicked his legs, and moved forward with his strength, the long knife was like electricity, and it turned out to be a direct attack on Dong Shizhen.
Dongfang Xin was stunned for a while, and even Dong Shizhen, who had already taken two steps back, also showed a look of horror on his face.
Zhao Xin's target was not Chu Huan, nor Dongfang Xin, but Dong Shizhen.
Dong Shizhen's pupils contracted, he thought that everything was arranged by him, but at this time, he was shocked to find that the matter was completely out of his control, and he really couldn't understand why Zhao Xin's knife should have been stabbed at Dongfang Xin, but why it was pointed at him.
The long knife is like electricity, Dong Shizhen knew that things were not good, and he turned around and was about to run, but Zhao Xin used the power of the desktop, as fast as lightning, Dong Shizhen had not yet run two steps, he felt a cold back, the long knife had been pierced from his back, Dong Shizhen only felt a sharp pain in his body, this knife was extremely sharp, and when he lowered his head, Dong Shizhen had already seen the blade running through his chest.
Dongfang Xin knew that something had changed, and he couldn't figure out what was wrong for a while, so he ran to the window and shouted: "Assassin, catch the assassin......!" ”
Today is the birthday banquet of Mrs. Dong, although Dongfang Xin is a military general, but he did not go to the banquet with a sword.
Zhao Xin stabbed through Dong Shizhen, everyone present, except for a few people, of course, no one knew that this assassin was Zhao Xin, the head of the Ministry of War, although there were also twenty or thirty people upstairs, but most of them were elderly guests, no one expected that a birthday banquet would turn into a bloody assassination, many people had already exclaimed to find a place to hide, for fear of harming the pond fish, and there was a mess in all directions.
Old lady Dong saw Dong Shizhen being pierced through his body by a long knife, raised his hand, couldn't make a sound, and "cooed" twice in his throat, and fell on the table, the dishes on the table were in a mess, but at this moment people were panicked, even the little maid who was supporting him had already screamed and dodged to the side, and no one cared about this old lady.
At the main entrance of the North Lookout Tower, Hao Tong had already heard an accident on the top floor, and even heard Dongfang Xin's roar, which was a pre-agreed code, Hao informed that Dongfang Xin was calling him to take someone up quickly.
It was only at this time that Xuanyuan Sheng grabbed his arm, he couldn't get out, but he saw several guards warriors in the house rushing upstairs, and his heart was in a hurry, and at this time, he didn't care that Xuanyuan Sheng was a child of the martial arts family, and said sharply: "Let go." Shake his hand, want to break free of Xuanyuan Shengcai's hand, but Xuanyuan Shengcai is not a general, although he shook his hand, but he can't break free of Xuanyuan Shengcai, Xuanyuan Shengcai is like kraft candy, entangled him, and said with drunkenness: "I look down on you, please drink, but you treat me like this...... What, want to get your hands dirty? ”
Hao informed the upstairs that the situation was urgent, and said in a deep voice: "There are assassins upstairs, all rush up to ......!" The arm holding the knife was grabbed by Xuanyuan Shengcai, and he wanted to pull out the knife angrily, but Xuanyuan Shengcai's other hand had already buckled Hao Tong's hand, and Xuanyuan Shengcai's voice also became calm, his eyes were like ice, and a cold light appeared, and he said coldly: "If you don't drink with me today, I will see who dares to take a step forward." It happened that one of Hao Tong's subordinates was about to break in, Xuanyuan Shengcai had already raised a kick and kicked the man's waist and eye hard, the man didn't expect Xuanyuan Shengcai to say that he would do it, and he was caught off guard, "ouch" screamed, and was kicked to the ground.
Hao Tong's guards were shocked and discolored, and they all looked at each other angrily in an instant, someone had already pulled out their swords in an instant, Xuanyuan Sheng only sneered, his face was fearless, this time he brought seven or eight guards samurai to come, several samurai had already rushed upstairs, but there were two guards samurai following him, one left and one right, blocking the door, when the guards drew their swords, the two guards samurai had also drawn their swords in their hands, and shouted: "Who dares to do it?" ”
The guests who went to the banquet in the hall on the first floor had already seen Xuanyuan Shengcai pestering Hao Tong here, Xuanyuan Sheng was the son of the Xuanyuan family, and he was the general next to the governor, and Hao Tong was Dongfang Xin's cronies and captains of the guards, these two people had special identities, and no one dared to step forward to dissuade them, and everyone was happy to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger, waiting to see a good show.
It's just that at this moment, there are many changes, and the hands of both sides have drawn their swords against each other, and many people have changed color.
Hao Tong is loyal to Dongfang Xin, today's big event, he didn't expect to be killed by Xuanyuan Shengcai, he only felt that things were strange, he was afraid of ruining Dongfang Xin's affairs, the arm holding the knife was buckled by Xuanyuan Shengcai, and he couldn't care about anything else, and his other hand had already clenched his fist towards Xuanyuan Shengcai, and shouted: "Get out!" ”
As soon as he punched, Xuanyuan Shengcai's eyebrows were the same, one arm was raised, and he also hit Hao Tong.
Dong Shizhen was pierced by a long knife, the black-clothed assassin Zhao Xin instantly drew the knife, Dong Shizhen was in severe pain, fell to the ground, struggled to twist around, his pupils dilated, looked at Zhao Xin, couldn't believe it, and tried his best to raise his hand and point at Zhao Xin, "You ......!" With a flash of inspiration, he seemed to understand something, his fingers turned to Dongfang Xin, his eyes showed resentment, and he exerted his last strength, and hissed: "Dongfang ...... Dongfang Xin, you ...... You murdered ...... Murder me......! ”
Dongfang Xin saw Dong Shizhen pointing at him, his pupils contracted, and he said sharply: "Dong Shizhen, you ...... What nonsense are you talking about......! ”
Dong Shizhen had blood in his chest, opened his mouth, but he was unable to speak, his hands were weak, his arms fell, his head was tilted, and he was no longer breathing.
