Chapter 59: Assassination

Looking at those people, Meng Combrow couldn't help but ask Jing Qicheng, is this a bit too much.

"Aren't you worried that this time you're going to be too sharp, and you'll be wary?"

Naturally, she said no one else.

Although the prince has always been loyal and patriotic, and considerate of his subordinates, Jing Qicheng knows best what kind of person he is.

This time he came to Luzhou and did his errands so neatly, wouldn't the prince be very jealous of him?

"If I don't make a sound, it's a blockbuster, if I can't let my father know what kind of prince I am, I'm afraid I won't have another chance in the future."

After this time, the prince will definitely be very scruptuous, if he can't get the emperor's approval, it will be difficult for Jing Qicheng to come out in the future.

He has always been a thorn in the prince's side, and he wanted to take the opportunity to make himself carry the black pot, but he didn't think about it and pushed himself.

In the carriage, Meng combed his eyebrows and saw that there was no one around, and motioned for Jing Qicheng to stretch out his hand.

She wrote a word in Jing Qicheng's palm.

"Do you want it?"

"Yes."

Jing Qicheng replied without hesitation.

He has been living with a mask for so many years because he doesn't want to attract the attention of the prince, but now, the time is ripe.

Now he has not hidden his ambition in front of Meng Combrow.

What he wants is the throne.

Meng combed his eyebrows and was silent, they were really not all the way.

She had no interest in power.

"Don't you want to be a queen?"

"The price to pay is too great, so I don't want to."

Is the queen living happily today?

The emperor's seventy-two concubines in the three palaces and six courtyards don't know how the queen feels when she looks at her husband lingering on other people's beds every day.

She can not mind the past, but she cannot not care about the future.

Serving a husband with another woman, she really can't do it.

It is better to be a poor man's wife than a queen's concubine.

The two of them wanted very different things.

Neither of them was talking, only the creaking of the wheels could be heard.

"Lord Wang, someone is coming in front."

The man rode a fast horse and held something bright yellow in his hand.

"King Jing Qi of Chen received the order."

And they all knelt down and listened to the man pronounce his will.

It seems that the emperor already knows about the affairs of Luzhou, and summons him to return to Beijing as soon as possible without delay.

Wang Zhifu was locked in the prison car in the back, he committed a big crime, and his family had to be taken back to the capital together, but Meng Combrow did not embarrass them when he saw that the women and children were scared, and let the soldiers take care of them.

After getting the emperor's will, they needed to speed up their journey, but fortunately, the officials along the way had also known the news of King Chen's return to Beijing, and they opened the door to convenience along the way.

Although the carriage is quite comfortable to sit in, this kind of carriage is not as good as a modern car, and the back cannot be straightened after sitting for a long time.

The first thing Meng Combrow did after arriving at the official post was to quickly ask Chunxing to make a basin of hot water for herself.

She felt like the bones in her body were hardened.

"Miss, bear with me, we will return to the capital soon, and you will have everything you want at that time."

Chunxing was adding water to the bathtub while babbling this, when suddenly a scream came from outside, followed by a noisy voice.

"Something happened."

Meng Combrow immediately came out of the bathtub and put on his coat.

She had just finished dressing when someone kicked the door open.

She didn't have martial arts, so she couldn't dodge, and was directly grabbed by the shoulder.

"Miss!"

Chun Xing screamed in fright, she only felt a cold neck, and a cold sword was already across her neck.

"Don't mess around, kill me, you won't be able to escape."

Meng combed his eyebrows and saw that he was dressed in a night suit, he should be an assassin, who was he aiming for, himself or Jing Qicheng?

"Let her go."

Jing Qicheng had already led someone to surround the official post, and he looked at the kidnapped Meng combing his eyebrows, and his body was full of murderous energy.

With a slight effort, the blade left a trail of blood on her neck.

This person has good martial arts, and it is almost impossible to rescue Meng Comb in this situation.

No one dared to act rashly.

"Hurry up and get caught, you can't escape!"

General Wu, who was beside Jing Qicheng, pointed his knife at the assassin.

The assassin sneered, now that he had Princess Chen in his hands, what was there to be afraid of.

Even if he dies, there is still someone to do on his back.

Jing Qi Cheng motioned for everyone to back away and not come, and then walked over to the assassin alone.

"Don't come here!"

The assassin's five fingers were clasped in Meng's flesh like an eagle's claws, and she endured the pain, not wanting to show her cowardice in front of such a person.

"As long as you let her go, I'll let you go."

"Haha, do you think I'll believe you?"

There are so many people here, as long as they are a little lax, they will be immediately shot into a sieve.

He is not a fool, and this hostage in his hand is his only bargaining chip.

"You have killed the prefect of the king, your goal has been achieved, and you can also go to your master to revenge."

The prefect of the king is dead?

The assassin had come to keep his mouth shut.

Meng Combrow's eyebrows suddenly laughed, and she said to the assassin, "Shouldn't a dead man like you be killed by himself when he is discovered?" Are you still kidnapping me now, do you want to continue to live? ”

"Shut up!"

The Assassin said angrily.

As long as he can accomplish this errand, he will not have to live this kind of life of licking blood at the tip of a knife in the future.

Of course, he can sacrifice his life for his master, but he will soon be able to live under the sun, and he will not have to be the shadow of others like a ghost, how can he not have any longing in his heart.

A killer has long been on the sidelines of death, but he at least wants to live like a normal person, even if it is only for one day.

Sensing that the assassin seemed to be a little shaken, Meng combed his eyebrows and continued: "You let me go, I have no reason to kill you, I promise, you can live." ”

The Assassin hesitated, but quickly continued to grip his knife.

He couldn't believe Meng's words.

"Look, there are so many people here, I'm Princess Chen, it's impossible to lose my trust to you in front of so many people, right?"

Meng combed his eyebrows and softened his tone, as long as he put down his sword, everything was negotiable.

Whether it's money or something else, I can give it to him, and I can even let him leave Qingguo and start over.

Starting over, the Assassin's hand visibly shook when he heard these four words.

Jing Qicheng took off the Chenwang token on his body and threw it on the ground, and with this token, he was able to leave Qingguo.

The Assassin's hand eventually let go of Meng's eyebrows.

Jing Qicheng immediately stepped forward and hugged her in his arms.

"I've released people now, shouldn't you fulfill your promise and let me go."

"Let's go."
