Chapter 51: Robbery, Assassination
"Princess, it's cold outside, you better go inside." Ji Yuan turned his head and looked at Mu Jing.
Looking at the prince's wide clothes on her body, she instantly looked like a child wearing an adult, which was a little funny.
Mu Jing felt that it was okay, wouldn't it be more boring inside, Besides, Chu Yu is not a talkative person, so let her play a one-man show alone.
She would rather come out and see and feel the natural wind.
"Hey, it's really bad to go out in this weather, it's better for Lan'er and Jasmine to be in the house." Mu Jing sighed resentfully. Some are not happy.
"Princess, what do you say? Lan'er and Jasmine set off early, and let us explore the way ahead and see where we were staying. Ji Yuan smiled and said.
"Pathfinding? Let the two little women explore the way, Ji Yuan, you are so humorous. Mu Jing was surprised, turned his head and smiled and said.
When Ji Yuan heard this, he naturally knew that the princess was worried about her entourage, and then said with a smile.
"Don't worry, there is Lin Quan, make sure your two maids are in order."
"Forest rights? Since returning from the palace, he has not been seen again, is he sent to do some secret mission? Mu Jing moved his position and approached Ji Yuan and said.
Ji Yuan watched Mu Jing suddenly approach, he was stunned at first, and then saw that there was no movement in the carriage. It's okay to tell the princess.
"He ......"
As soon as he heard Ji Yuan say his word, Mu Jing only felt a gust of wind behind him, and looked behind him along Ji Yuan's gaze, Chu Yu said coldly while opening the door curtain.
"What does he know? Just ask me any questions. ”
Mu Jing touched her nose, how could she feel that Chu Yu didn't seem to be very happy just now.
At this time, Ji Yuan sat outside with some fear, and opened the distance between him and Mu Jing, the prince's gaze just now was really a little cautious.
Mu Jing still wanted to say something, looked at Ji Yuan's action, and guessed it, turned his head and asked Chu Yu
"Then the prince, you ......"
Suddenly, the wind direction changed, and the rain became heavier when it became bigger, and it rained heavily in an instant, Chu Yu stretched out his hand and grabbed Mu Jing and took her into the car.
Fang avoided becoming a soup chicken.
Due to the heavy rain, it was impossible to discern the direction ahead, Ji Yuan immediately stopped the carriage, and then put on the coat that had already hung behind him.
"Lord Wang, the rain is too strong now, and the road ahead is not easy to identify, after you and the princess are waiting now, I will go ahead to explore the road first."
"Hmm." Chu Yu lifted the curtain and looked outside, the rain was really not ordinary. agreed to Ji Yuan.
After Ji Yuan got the order, he jumped out of the carriage and disappeared in an instant.
Mu Jing and Chu Yu stared at each other for a while, and the two of them turned pale, Mu Jing immediately listened to the body, and then lifted the curtain of the carriage. The rain was heavy, and the wind began to howl, and although there was nothing to see clearly, the sparse footsteps and the sound of people talking, although small, could still be heard if you listened carefully.
"Big brother, there's a carriage there."
"I really have nowhere to find my iron shoes, and I thought I was going to return empty-handed today."
"It's still the eldest brother who is wise, saying that this weather is the most suitable for robbery, and today's one is settled."
"The people in the car listened, if they want to save their lives, they should leave their money and food."
As their voices got closer and closer, Mu Jing counted the number of people, about four or five people.
The man who had just shouted towards the carriage was a short and thin man, and the man standing in the first place carried a large knife on his back, and there was a scar on the right side of his face.
I saw that the short man was stunned, turned his head to the scar man and said, "Big brother, isn't there no one in the car?" ”
"Small! Go up and take a look. Scar craned his neck to look around, then kicked the man who spoke.
The man drew the knife from his waist and approached the carriage tremblingly.
Mu Jing looked at them, this robbery is too level, the originally tense nerves were instantly relaxed.
And Chu Yu was stunned, this place is not very far from the capital, and there has been no robbery, how can there be thieves now?
I saw that the thief had just approached, and when Mu Jing hesitated about which poison to use, he saw three arrows flying out of the roof of the car and landed at the thief's feet impartially?
The dwarf screamed, "Ahhh ”
Mu Jing turned his head and saw Chu Yu sitting precariously holding a book and looking at it, because the book was blocked, he couldn't see his expression at the moment.
However, Mu Jing was sure that the arrow just now was sent by the mechanism in the carriage.
Thinking that since you don't have to do it yourself, then it's good to watch the play obediently.
The little man screamed and immediately took a few steps back.
"Big brother, big brother, this carriage can't be provoked, let's go"
"Can't be messed with? Not so badly. The scar man's face turned sideways.
He raised his broadsword and rushed into the carriage.
Mu Jing turned his head to look at Chu Yu, only to see that Chu Yu was still calm, and then reached out and pulled the rows of tassel balls hanging behind him.
Three arrows fired again, Mu Jing took a look, and saw that the scar man who was about to rush forward froze, and the cloak on his head was directly shot away by the arrow and nailed to the trunk of the tree in the distance.
The scar man was really frightened at the moment, and he was originally arrogant, and immediately knelt on the ground.
"Uncle, spare your life, uncle, spare your life!"
Seeing this, Mu Jing lifted the curtain, exposed his head, and smiled at the scar man.
"Lord Yu's carriage, you all dare to rob it, I don't think you want your heads."
The scar man was no longer terrified in an instant, but cried out loudly as if he had found a savior.
"Please, lord, make the decision for us."
When Mu Jing heard this, it was difficult for him to have any trouble, and then asked them.
"Tell me about it."
"We are from Lianzhou, the continuous heavy rain in the past few days has washed away the embankment, and the crops planted are not harvested, and the imperial court has not distributed food, we have no choice but to start the old business, just to make a living."
"Lianzhou embankment washed out? The Lianzhou dam was not built last year, so why did it collapse this year? Chu Yu frowned.
Besides, Lianzhou has a big flood, why hasn't anyone reported it to the court?
"This ......" The scar man was about to say something, and a bow and arrow shot over, and all the people who were originally kneeling on the ground were shot to death.
Mu Jing's face changed instantly, these assassins are not simple, they are coming at them.
There were quite a few people coming, at least a dozen or twenty people, and this time it was a professional killer.
"Do you think this mission is so difficult, and the people around King Yu are so bad?" The man in black at the head looked at the corpse on the ground.
In an instant, the men in black surrounded the carriage.
Mu Jing glanced at Chu Yu, and he finally had a movement.
I saw that he quickly pulled out the ball behind him, Mu Jing turned his head to look outside, these people are not fists and legs, they are all strong in martial arts.
These weapons are of no use to them.
Mu Jing smiled at Chu Yu and said.
"It seems that this carriage is still so unforbidden. It's up to me. ”
As he spoke, he pulled out a wooden box from his sleeve.
These little babies must have been bored for a long time.
