Chapter 307: Assassination Temptation
Dugu Chiyan held Ji Ruhuan tightly in his arms and asked in a cold voice, "How many people?"
"There are about 20 people blocking the road, and at least 100 people are ambushed around. ”
Ji Ruhuan, who was held in the arms of the Nine Emperor Uncles, pursed her lips and responded, "There are so many people, I just don't know how I am doing." ”
Dugu Chiyan looked at Ji Ruhuan with an eager expression, and reluctantly asked, "You will be careful." ”
He was worried for a while, but he forgot that the girl in his arms was taught by himself, not a gentle silk flower raised in the attic.
After speaking, Dugu Chiyan let go of Ji Ruhuan and got out of the carriage first, Ji Ruhuan had already touched the silver whip in his hand and went out with him.
Chunxiao Xiaojin had already exchanged hands with the people in black, and the rest of the people in black quickly rushed up from all directions, holding weapons in their hands and rushing towards Dugu Chiyan and Ji Ruhuan.
Ji Ruhuan was ruthless with a silver whip in one hand, and those assassins couldn't get close to her at all, but she still had time to say to the Nine Emperor Uncles on the side, "The quality of these assassins is not very good." ”
Those insulted assassins may have been stimulated by Ji Ruhuan's words, and the movements in their hands became more and more ruthless, but unfortunately the result was still unsatisfactory.
Obviously, Ji Ruhuan is not wrong, these assassins, for Ji Ruhuan, they are really too weak, more than a hundred people rushed up, the obvious number of people suppressed, and it didn't take long for a small half to fall, and as a result, they didn't even touch half of the target's sleeve.
First the palace change, and then the obituary of His Majesty's national funeral, today's Kyoto can be described as a rumor, and their movements here soon set off a monstrous wave in a quiet Kyoto, alarming all parties.
Seeing the people who were surrounded in the middle, all the people who originally wanted to pretend to be dead were worried that they would be caught by the other party, and suddenly they all became the embodiment of justice and rushed into the battle together.
Thinking that since they all moved, they must work hard to make a good impression in front of this sudden appearance of the Ninth Highness.
So the remaining half of the men in black, Ji Ruhuan and they didn't make much of a move, they were subdued by the rescuers who suddenly appeared, and they asked about the situation of the two worriedly.
"Is His Highness the Ninth alright?"
"Is the county lord of Fengyang okay?"
Seeing that there was no living mouth left in the place, and there was still a breath of air that was made up by someone, Ji Ruhuan's face was ugly, she suspected that these people were here to kill people.
There were also people who looked at Ji Ruhuan's bad face, and stepped forward to appease him, "Don't worry, county lord, the assassins have been subdued." ”
A bewitching smile appeared on the face of the Fengyang County Lord, and before he could recover from that smile, he found that he had a soft sword on his neck, and a cold voice came into his ears, "Lonely person, is it your turn to care?"
Dugu Chiyan's operation couldn't scare the man, but he didn't do anything to him, but pulled Ji Ruhuan back to the carriage and asked in a cold voice, "Why are you laughing so happy?"
Ji Ruhuan pursed her mouth dissatisfiedly, "Why do you think I'm happy, my hands and feet haven't moved yet, and I can't ask who the assassin is, it's a disappointment." ”
After that, some people diligently cleaned up the mess and cleared the obstacles, and they returned to the Zhenguo Mansion in a carriage unimpeded.
The Zhenguo Mansion also just got the news that General Ji had just gone out with someone to pick them up, and he met him at the door.
Seeing the two of them get out of the carriage completely, Ji Yicheng breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Are you not injured?"
Ji Ruhuan sighed, "A group of straw bales, I was going to leave a few living mouths to ask, but I didn't want a lot of people to suddenly come out to help us, but none of them were left." ”
Dugu Chi Yan pursed his lips and responded, "This time it should be a temptation, it seems that we will have to be careful when we go out in the future." ”
Ji Yicheng nodded with a heavy face, and said, "It's okay, you go back and clean up first, I have to go back to the study first, I heard that you had an accident, I left your uncle and came out, and he was still waiting in the study." ”
Ji Ruhuan raised her eyebrows and said, "Uncle is here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Changxing came, he seemed to be in a hurry, and he was slightly panting, and he was also slightly relieved to see Ji Ruhuan and Dugu Chiyan.
Ji Ruhuan gave a salute to people, and Dugu Chiyan also followed, which flattered Mu Changxing, after all, this person's identity is extraordinary.
After greeting Ji Ruhuan, he asked, "Is there something wrong with my uncle coming over?"
Mu Changxing's face suddenly became heavy, and he nodded, and Ji Ruhuan continued, "Then let's go to the study, can we go and listen?"
Mu Changxing responded, "Of course." ”
Ji Yicheng looked at the little blood stains on the two of them, "Why don't you go and clean up first?"
Ji Ruhuan shook her head, "It's okay, let's do this first, let's go, go to the study." ”
Dugu Chiyan saw that Ruhuan said that it was okay, so he could only endure it and followed him to the study first.
In the study, Mu Changxing said with a solemn expression, "Since something happened in the palace, we have been worried about Yu'er in the palace, Yu'er and her mother are really not at ease, so she insisted on entering the palace and went to see Yu'er, the East Palace may have been forgotten by everyone, but there is nothing wrong, but Yu'er secretly told her mother a news, let her come out and be sure to tell you." ”
Ji Ruhuan suddenly had a bad premonition in her heart, pursed her lips and asked, "What's the news?"
Mu Changxing took a breath before he spoke, "The queen has called back the 100,000 men and horses of the Nanyang army, and she is already on her way back to Beijing. ”
"What?" Ji Ruhuan's eyes widened in disbelief.
Ji Yicheng also frowned, "The Nanyang army has a total of 100,000, and all of them have been called back?
Ji Ruhuan looked at Ji Yicheng to the side, "Father, the commander-in-chief of the Nanyang Army is the queen's person, why can she mobilize 100,000 Nanyang troops?"
Ji Yicheng shook his head, "Impossible, Jiang Hang was born in a poor family, and he was promoted by His Majesty, and he was the most heartfelt, and it was impossible to listen to the queen's dispatch at will." ”
Dugu Chiyan pursed his lips and replied, "That is the case, as long as the queen makes him believe that something happened to His Majesty, she can easily transfer him back from Nanyang." ”
Ji Ruhuan frowned, "In the north of Liaonanyang, more than half of the three border garrisons of the Ming Dynasty were transferred back, and they were all ...... at the same time period."
"What?" Ji Yicheng opened his mouth to interrupt Ji Ruhuan, "Three border garrisons? Do you mean that the Liaodong Army has also been called back?"
Ji Ruhuan nodded, "We just went to see Wu Yuexuan and came back, and Liaodong has called back 100,000 troops, and it is already on the way." ”
Mu Changxing exclaimed, "My God, does Taishi Wu also want to rebel? ”
Ji Ruhuan frowned and replied, "There is a queen mother, Wu Taishi will not rebel, you have forgotten that he suffered a loss at the hands of the four princes? If it weren't for me suddenly leading someone to intervene sideways, breaking into the palace and disrupting the plan of the four princes, what do you think would happen to Wu Taishi? Now that the four princes are still in charge of the country, maybe they should inherit the throne next, you say that Wu Taishi will be willing?"
