Chapter Twenty-Five: The Killer in the Palace

The location of this poetry meeting is set in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the Prime Minister's Mansion is luxurious, and it will not be inferior to the palaces.

And this Prime Minister Lin Cheng is also a strange person, he is a capable minister, now the national strength of the Great Zhou Dynasty in the Central Plains, belongs to the most prosperous, and Lin Cheng Prime Minister is indispensable, and at the same time he is also a well-known traitor and corrupt official, it is rumored that he embezzled the silver and the rich can rival the country, once participated in his recital like a snowflake flew into the imperial study, but the emperor Lao Tzu still favored him.

The prime minister is the head of civil officials, peach and plum all over the world, whether it is the second prince or the third prince over the years, he has constantly shown favor to him, but he turned a blind eye to the two princes, and only did things for His Majesty.

Jiang Xiaoyu looked at a few gilded characters in the Prime Minister's Mansion, the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, and there was a hint of coldness in his eyes, Master once said that this Prime Minister Lin is a really smart person, when everyone is looking for a backer for their future, only he clearly sees that the only person he is loyal to is the emperor, and his loyalty makes his emperor favored, but I don't know how loyal this loyalty is, and does it have anything to do with him ten years ago?

"Eldest sister, what's wrong?" Jiang Qiran put one hand on Jiang Xiaoyu's shoulder affectionately, "Why are you stunned?" ”

"Over the years, I have rarely been out of the house, and I have rarely seen people, and I am a little nervous when I think that I will see a lot of strangers later!" Jiang Xiaoyu said lightly.

"When I met Shizi, I didn't see the eldest sister, you were nervous, but you were very skillful!" Jiang Youran said sarcastically, "I'm also pondering, eldest sister, you rarely see a man in the house, but you are very comfortable in front of the world, it seems that the eldest sister is really talented!" ”

"Have you forgotten that my son and I are also childhood horses, and we have a love for children!" Jiang Xiaoyu smiled faintly and glanced at Jiang Youran, "It's you, Sister Youran, what are you thinking about all day long!" I don't know how a woman should behave in front of a strange man, but for men and women, you are very experienced! ”

"You ........."

"Eldest sister, second sister, this is in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, if you quarrel, I'm afraid it will make people laugh!" Jiang Yiran smiled and persuaded the two, "Don't quarrel, don't forget, we are a family!" By the way, eldest sister, the county lord of Qiwen will also arrive today, you made her miserable last time, she has a close relationship with Miss Lin, you should be careful! ”

Jiang Youran glared at Jiang Yiran, as if she was blaming her for not telling Jiang Xiaoyu the news.

Lord of Qiwen County...... The last time she was called to see blood, she was bound to not give up, it turned out that Jiang Qiran was beaten to this attention, and she wanted to borrow the hand of the county lord of Qiwen to teach herself?

Just got off the carriage and was about to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion, it happened that another carriage also stopped in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion, only to see Yan Shuxing and Yang Manman get out of the car, as if neither side expected to see each other, and a trace of surprise flashed on their faces.

Jiang Xiaoyu's gaze swept over the two of them indifferently, smiled faintly, nodded, and slowly walked into the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Yang Manman snorted: "It's just that there is a son of the world to protect you, what is crazy!" How did they call her, it's really unlucky! If I had known she was here, I wouldn't have come! ”

"I'm just listening to this, you just say a few words in front of others, I warn you, trouble comes from the mouth, if you cause me some trouble like a son, don't blame me for being rude to you!" Yan Shuxing warned coldly.

"I don't know good people's hearts, I'm not for you!" Yang Manman folded his arms in front of his chest and snorted coldly.

In the back garden of the Prime Minister's Mansion, all the daughters of the family have almost come, peach and willow green, very lively, they are all people in a circle, and there are many intersections, Jiang Youran and the two sisters hurriedly went to greet the young ladies who were familiar with each other, and said hello, Jiang Xiaoyu was single, and it was also quiet.

Xu is these young ladies have been greeted by their families, Xu is they don't look down on Jiang Xiaoyu at all, although occasionally there are curious and disdainful eyes to come over, but there is no one to talk to.

Miss Lin of the Prime Minister's Mansion and the noble county lord have not yet arrived, and the so-called poetry meeting has naturally not started, and everyone is saying something considerate in groups, and it seems that Jiang Xiaoyuren is alone.

Jiang Qiran looked at Jiang Xiaoyu's appearance of being excluded by everyone, and a burst of happiness flashed in his heart, a pheasant is a pheasant, and it can't become a golden phoenix! The county lord already has a grudge with her, and when the county lord arrives later, he will add fuel and vinegar, and he will naturally clean her up! It is said that the county lord's brother is also in the prime minister's mansion, that person has always loved his sister, and the county lord called Jiang Xiaoyu to bully him, and I don't know if he will make a move! If you make a move, it will be great!

A person who is attached to people everywhere, a person who is not accepted by the same circle, it is impossible to help the son, sooner or later the son of the world will be able to see the fact that Jiang Xiaoyu not only has no way to benefit him, but will pull him back, man, the most important thing is to rebuild the meritorious career, she doesn't believe that there is a man who really puts his feelings first, not to mention that Jiang Xiaoyu is not worthy of having the feelings of the prince at all!

She was about to go over and taunt a few words, but she saw two maid-like girls come to Jiang Xiaoyu's side, laugh and talk to her for a few words, Jiang Xiaoyu stood up and followed the two of them.

Looking at their dress, it seems that they are the subordinates of the Prime Minister's Mansion, could it be that Miss Lin wants to meet Jiang Xiaoyu? Miss Lin is a sick seedling, the county lord may accompany her at this time, could it be that the county lord plans to teach her a lesson alone?

Jiang Qiran was puzzled, and when she was about to follow to see what was going on, someone behind her greeted her, and she had no choice but to put away her curiosity and respond with a smile.

Paying attention to Jiang Xiaoyu at any time are also the two sisters Jiang Youran.

Jiang Youran looked at the back of Jiang Xiaoyu leaving, frowned and wondered, "Where is she going?" ”

"Don't worry about it so much, my mother told us not to offend Jiang Xiaoyu, we just don't provoke her, but if someone else provokes her, we can't control it!" Jiang Yiran smiled slightly.

Jiang Xiaoyu followed the two maids in front of her through the back garden and walked towards the lake, the lake was still green, the weeping willows were green, and the three of them divided the flowers and helped the willows all the way but they met a subordinate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, she gradually became suspicious in her heart, and asked suddenly: "Two sisters, you said that Miss Lin wants to see me, where is she here, why do I look at this road is not right?" ”

"The weather is nice today, our young lady is basking in the sun in the gazebo in the middle of the lake!" One of them turned around and said.

"Really? I suddenly remembered that I forgot to explain some things to my two younger sisters, and I want to go back and talk to them, anyway, Miss Lin will come to the poetry meeting later, and we should not be in a hurry to talk about it at that time, right? Jiang Xiaoyu said lightly, turning around to leave.

The voice of the person behind him immediately became cold, and the slightest murderous aura struck, and he said coldly: "Miss Jiang, our young lady is waiting for Miss in the middle of the lake, please don't embarrass the slave!" ”

"Since it's acting, you should act professionally, the embroidered shoes you two wear are Su Jin, these shoes are only available to people in the palace, you are not from the Prime Minister's Mansion at all, what do you want to do when you lure me to this no-man's land!" Jiang Xiaoyu suddenly turned around and shouted.

"Of course, I was ordered to take Miss Jiang's life!" The two of them raised their eyes at the same time, pulled out a soft sword from their waists, and stabbed straight towards Jiang Xiaoyu's chest!

Jiang Xiaoyu hurriedly took a few steps back, narrowly avoiding the quick blow of the two, but her face was still crossed by the sword wind, and a trace of pain struck, she frowned, and said with a smile: "Your master can't help but think too highly of me, to deal with such a little girl as me, he actually dispatched two masters!" ”

"Just knowing Miss Jiang's ability, our master has to get rid of Miss Jiang, otherwise it will be a big disaster in the future!" As soon as the cold words fell, the internal force in his body poured into the sword body, and the soft sword suddenly struck Jiang Xiaoyu's throat again with a hideous cold light.

Jiang Xiaoyu struggled to support it, she still had a hard time dealing with the two masters alone, and she regretted not letting the senior brother follow her to the Xiangfu. Over the years, although she has practiced the mental method taught to her by her master day and night, her internal strength is mostly to suppress the cold poison in her body, if she forcibly releases it, she is afraid that the cold poison will attack her heart!

That's it, I can't care so much at this critical juncture!

Jiang Xiaoyu no longer hides her strength, because her internal strength is full, her moves have become very fast, and her moves are also very weird, she can't tell what kind of sect it is, and the angle is very tricky and insidious, and she will turn the unfavorable situation in an instant!

The two long swords stabbed towards Jiang Xiaoyu like lightning, and they cooperated very tacitly one after the other, and they planned to get rid of her with the intention of dying with her!

A trace of coldness flashed in Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes, I don't know when there were already a few more silver needles in his hand, the silver needles flew out, and stabbed into a person's neck in an instant, the toxin on the silver needles instantly spread from the blood all over the body, and the person fell to the ground paralyzed, at the same time, the sword behind it was still straight towards her heart!

Jiang Xiaoyu caught a glimpse of the chill of the long sword, and hurriedly turned around and grazed the hidden sword against her neck, at the same time, the dagger in her hand had quickly cut through the person's neck, and the warm and fishy blood water suddenly sprayed on her face!

She stretched out a finger and poked the man, and the man's body suddenly fell to the ground, Jiang Xiaoyu glanced at it coldly, hid his trembling right hand in his sleeve, and slowly walked towards the assassin who was paralyzed on the ground!

The man glared at Jiang Xiaoyu fiercely, and smiled coldly: "I didn't expect that the eldest lady of the Jiang family actually hid peerless martial arts, we underestimated the enemy, we admit it!" ”

Jiang Xiaoyu squatted down, stuck the bloody dagger on the ground, and asked sharply, "Who is your master?" ”

"It's Miss Jiang, someone you absolutely can't afford to mess with!" The man smiled disdainfully, "Our master won't give up, on the Huangquan Road, we will wait for you!" After she finished speaking, before Jiang Xiaoyu could stop it, she bit off her tongue and tilted her head to the side.

Empress? Dowager? Or a princess?

Who is the person who is going to get rid of her now?
