Chapter 92: The Assassins
Tang Xinrou suddenly felt isolated by this world, and even her father didn't stop Chu Heng from marrying the princess.
When the pearl princess comes, she has the title of a concubine and the treatment of a flat wife, so wouldn't it be that you don't have to salute when you see her, after all, she is a flat wife, not a concubine, and her identity is not much different.
In a trance, she saw even more sad days soon after.
Su E whispered in her ear: "Niangniang, now is not the time to care about other things, we have more important things to do." ”
Tang Xinrou retracted her thoughts, glanced at Su Qingwan and said, "How are you preparing?" ”
Su'e nodded her head to indicate that everything was arranged.
Shi Xuanyu sat beside Su Qingwan, she observed that the queen's expression changed greatly after learning that the emperor was going to marry Princess Mingzhu, and the smile on her face was even bigger, and she prepared a bigger surprise for the queen tonight, which could allow her to eliminate all her troubles.
The hall is constantly singing and dancing, the evening breeze is blowing, and the cloth curtains hanging on both sides are lifted.
Li Bi said: "I heard that there are many people who are good at martial arts, and this king has brought a few masters with good swordsmanship this time. ”
Chu Heng nodded and replied, "I also want to meet the masters of your country." ”
Soon the dancer retreated, and a thin man stepped into the middle, clasped hands and saluted: "Yongguo swordsman Xue Man has seen Emperor Chu. ”
His movements were simple, and he held an unsheathed sword in his hand.
Many people here have heard the name Xue Man, Xue Man is the first swordsman in Yongguo, ten years ago, he broke through the world with a silver hook snow, killing all the rivers and lakes martial arts, no one was his opponent in ten years, and then disappeared for three years, but he didn't expect to be recruited by King Xuan.
Xuanwang Li Bi said: "I don't know who dares to fight? ”
Lin Luoshu came out of nowhere and said, "Your Majesty, Weichen is willing to give it a try." ”
"That's right."
Yun Caiqing was nervous, as far as she knew, Lin Luoshu was not Xue Man's opponent at all.
This is not only clear to him, Lin Luoshu himself also understands, Chu Heng also knows, but why do they do this, if they lose, they will not only be injured, but also lose face, what is the good, Yun Caiqing can't figure it out, she is now putting her mind on Lin Luoshu.
Su Qingwan took a sip of tea, and whispered a reminder when she covered her face with her sleeve: "Don't be too obvious." ”
Yun Caiqing heard it, and she narrowed her gaze a little.
At this time, the tea was already cold, and the palace maids served freshly brewed tea one after another.
The Empress and the Emperor were at the same table, and the tea was the first to be replaced.
The queen was in a bad mood, and she didn't drink the teacup for a while, but it made Shi Xuanyu anxious for a while.
Lin Luoshu was wearing the clothes of the leader, and the whole person looked majestic.
As soon as he stood in the hall, Xue Man said coldly: "You are not my opponent, are you sure you want to compare?" ”
Lin Luoshu smiled lightly: "You have to compare to know the result." ”
After speaking, he pulled out the knife on his waist, he looked elegant and easy-going, but he learned an extremely domineering knife technique, the knife light was like a ripple, so that some people couldn't open their eyes, Xue Man also squinted, but he was not afraid, and Yin Goxue flew out of the scabbard and went straight to Lin Luoshu's door.
Lin Luoshu was in front of him, and Xue Man appeared in front of him in a flash, holding a sword in one hand and slapping Lin Luoshu in the abdomen with the other, Lin Luoshu wanted to attack, but he had to be forced back by this palm.
In just a few breaths, the two have already exchanged dozens of moves, and Lin Luoshu has already seen blood on his body, and the defeat has been decided.
Although it was a one-sided battle, the process of the two fighting was extremely exciting, which made people watch it very fascinating. 1234
"You've lost." Xue Man put the sword on Lin Luoshu's neck, if it wasn't for King Xuan's explanation, Lin Luoshu would have died a long time ago, instead of such a kind ending.
Lin Luoshu spat out a mouthful of blood, and there was a fierce battle intent in his eyes: "The next time we meet, I won't lose." ”
Although he lost, Chu Heng was not angry, and applauded: "The swordsman of Yongguo is really good, this battle is very exciting." ”
As soon as the colorful words fell, there was a whistling sound that broke through the air, and an arrow feather broke through the night and came towards Chu Heng.
"Escort!"
Sui An shouted, and at the same time used his internal force to swing away this arrow that could open the mountain and crack the rock.
"What's going on!" Chu Heng was furious.
"There are assassins, escort quickly!" Lin Luoshu was wounded and commanded the forbidden army.
The forbidden army came quickly and heavily guarded the Guangping Palace, while Lin Luoshu led a team of people to search in the direction where the feather arrows were flying.
And the original hall turned from singing and laughing to a panic, how could anyone assassinate at this time?
The envoys of various countries also beat drums in their hearts, whose person did the assassination? I don't know how to wait for them to leave before acting.
The swordsman Xue Man, who was originally standing not far from Chu Heng, suddenly shook his body and came straight towards Chu Heng, and at the same time, two feather arrows pierced the sky and flew towards this side.
Although Sui'an is strong, he can't take care of it at the same time, Xue Man is close, and he can only resist Xue Man's attack first, but after he fights with Xue Man, he can't get out and deal with the two feather arrows.
Su Qingwan shouted worriedly: "Your Majesty, be careful." ”
At the same time, her body reacted, blocking an arrow that was closer to her.
Everyone in the hall didn't expect anyone to do this, even Ji Xuanyuan and Tu Shan Muyan were blindsided, Ji Xuanyuan had the heart to step forward, but he stopped when he came into contact with Su Qingwan's eyes.
Tu Shan Muyan handled another feather arrow for Chu Heng, and then took out a pill and stuffed it into Su Qingwan's mouth.
"The emperor can rest assured that Su Niangniang has not hurt her heart and will not endanger her life." When he said this, he glanced at Ji Xuanyuan, and his eyes seemed to say that the master was really useless, and he couldn't even protect a woman.
Chu Heng breathed a sigh of relief at this time, he hugged Su Qingwan and shouted, "Quickly pass on the imperial doctor!" ”
Tang Xinrou sat there and didn't react, she remembered that the person she shouted was not an archer, nor Xue Man, these people were here to assassinate the emperor, and Su Qingwan blocked an arrow for the emperor, so she arranged the person.
She looked at Su'e, Su'e was also anxious, it was Li Xun who was looking for someone to act, but Li Xun was not in the palace at this time.
Just when they were anxious, Gong E, who was close to Su Qingwan, suddenly showed her dagger and stabbed her in the chest.
Chu Heng immediately gave her a palm, the palace maid flew out upside down, blood overflowed from the corners of her mouth, she didn't stand up for a long time, Shan Yuan sent someone to check, and found that the palace maid's plan had failed, and she had committed suicide by taking poison.
Chu Heng was furious, this palace maid was definitely not sent by the prime minister or Yongguo, someone wanted to harm Concubine Su Ai.
Sui'an and Xueman are still fighting, and the two are of equal strength, and it is difficult to tell the winner for a while.
And the envoys of Yongguo, who were shocked that Xue Man would make a move, shrank together tremblingly at this time, the people they brought assassinated the Chu Emperor, so would the Chu Emperor still let them go back?
Things have come to this point, Li Bi didn't panic, just let all this develop according to the established route, I just hope that Ji Xuanyuan can do what he says.
Chu Heng hugged Su Qingwan and wanted to leave, and said to Tu Shan Muyan: "The national teacher is going to capture the assassin alive, I want to see who has the courage to assassinate me!" ”
At this time, something happened again.
