Chapter Ninety-Three: Killing
At this moment, a bright moon suddenly rose in the middle of the sky, and it would shine brightly in an instant, driving away the dark clouds. When I looked closely, I realized that it was a sword that had cut in the air, and at the same time, a loud shout came.
"Who are you waiting for, dare to come to the palace to assassinate!"
The dark clouds dissipated, and there was a figure in a black robe floating in the sky, which was very strange. The strange man did not answer, but waved his hand, and a fierce beast suddenly appeared, and went straight to the person who spoke.
Rushing to meet the battle, it was the famous Wang Botong Wang Daochang, his identity is the national teacher of the Xia Kingdom, it stands to reason that he should go out with the emperor, I don't know why he appeared in the palace again.
Not to mention the battle between Wang Daochang and that strange man, everyone in the West Palace has a backbone, Wang Daochang is known as the first person in the Xia Kingdom, and he is relieved to have him. However, the fight with the invading masked men did not slacken, and the masked men were defeated one after another.
One retreated, one advanced, one fled and one chased, and soon they reached outside the palace wall, and the palace became much quieter. Those palace maids, grandmothers and others had never seen this kind of battle, and they were so frightened that they hid in the house and trembled.
On the ground by the wall, the ground slowly cracked, and a man emerged from it. He also covered his body tightly with black clothes, holding an Emei thorn in his hand, and the tip glowed with a faint blue light, and at a glance, he knew that it was highly poisonous.
Taking advantage of no one, the black shadow slipped into Qin Huimin's room with a smoke, saw the baby on the bed, raised the Emei thorn and stabbed it hard.
When Qin Huimin knew that the assassins were coming, she ordered the palace maid to take her short sword and hold it in her hand. When he saw that the assassin's target was a child, he hurriedly swung his sword to block. After all, she had just given birth to a child, and her blood was insufficient, although it was a sword with all her strength, she had exhausted all her strength before she could barely block the murder weapon, and when facing the assassination again, her arms couldn't be raised.
The assassin's goal was obvious, only the child, and the second attack was also aimed at the baby. Qin Huimin ninja's whole body was in severe pain, blocking his body in front of the child, allowing Emei to stab Qi Gen into his body, and at the same time inserting the short sword into the opponent's atrium. The two fell to the ground in unison.
Only then did the people in the house cry out in horror and ran out of the house to shout. Only then did everyone outside know that they had fallen for the plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, let go of the enemy and rush back. Wang Daochang also heard the shout, and his heart was anxious, the enemy's skills were not much weaker than his own, and it was difficult to withdraw for a while, so he fought to receive the opponent's palm and rushed over.
When Wang Daochang came to the house, he couldn't help but feel remorse when he saw the scene in front of him. At this time, he was wounded, and he was afraid that he would not be able to defeat the man, so he picked up the child and fled out.
At this time, the enemy did not flee, and when he saw the child in his arms, he knew that the plan was not yet completed, and he killed the general. Meng Liang and the others tried their best to block it, only then did they know that the other party had not gone all out, and the group of black-clothed people rushed to kill, and their own side was defeated. In the end, it was only by fighting for life that the situation was stabilized. Wang Daochang took the opportunity to get rid of the enemy and fled into the distance with the child in his arms.
At this time, except for the man in black who chased after the king, the rest of the men in black were all killed, and the price paid was painful. There were only about 30 people left on his side who did not die, and all of them were seriously injured. The dead man in black, I don't know what method was used, turned into a puddle of yellow water, which made it impossible for people to check. And Qin Huimin, like the man in black, has no bones.
Suzaku was very emotional, he didn't expect Xia Duanmo's life experience to be so miserable.
"Then after the emperor came back, didn't he pursue it?"
"When the emperor returned, it was already half a month later, but he didn't find any information about the enemy, and he was furious to execute all the people in the West Palace, thanks to General Qin's intercession and responsibility, so that I survived, and General Qin also left Kyoto directly and returned to his hometown."
"Didn't the emperor know that Wang Daochang took away the child?"
Of course the emperor knew, and sent someone to Lingshan to inquire, and Lingshan knew that at this time, he said that Wang Daochang had not returned to Lingshan, and sent Mr. Gu down the mountain to help find it. Wang Daochang has not heard from him, and he only thinks that he is more than lucky. ”
Suzaku nodded, this matter is also reasonable, it is estimated that the Qin family has always known about this, but the murderer has not been found, and the murderer is too powerful, so the fact that Xia Duanmo is still alive has been hidden. It wasn't until Wang Daochang was killed that he returned to Kyoto to show the emperor.
It seems that the murderer behind this is by no means simple, and can only be considered in the long run.
Xia Duanmo's tragic life experience deeply touched Suzaku, how can his life experience not be miserable? He also has a father alive who is taken care of by relatives, but he is alone, he doesn't even know the names of his parents, and the only thing left for him is a wooden plaque.
Thinking of the wooden card, Suzaku suddenly remembered to fight with the old man, and in the end, the old man's 180-degree transformation was not because he saw this wooden card? Suzaku seemed to see a glimmer of dawn, and secretly calculated in his heart.
But in the following days, Suzaku was extremely busy, putting aside his life experience. After all, Suzaku has always cared too much about his life experience, and this matter can only be regarded as a complex, just an explanation for the original body. She now focuses on living in the moment and living with dignity.
This goal was big for the society at the time, because Suzaku was a woman. Suzaku has his own plans, one of which is to build his own money empire. The original manpower problem has now been partially solved, and more than 30 people, if they are sent out, at least more than 30 restaurants can be mastered.
Looking at it now, the business of the restaurant is still very good, and the Kaiyuan Restaurant can be described as making money every day, and it should soon recover its costs. In terms of information, it is also more extensive than before. After all, after the matter of the three princes, the second floor has become the exclusive domain of the princes and nobles, and the things they talk about are even more secretive.
Time flies by in a hurry, and in a year's time, Suzaku has opened a total of nine restaurants in Kyoto. Suzaku didn't manage it personally, she completely handed over the affairs of the restaurant to Meng Liang to operate, and she just listened to the report every month.
Suzaku is busy with other things, she doesn't want to just do a business, she has a big heart, to be an all-round business empire. Moreover, she also wants to build a team that truly belongs to her.
So, over the course of the year, she traveled all over the streets of Kyoto, looking for available talents, gathering them together and training them individually.
Suzaku did not choose the training location in Kyoto Castle, because she was afraid that it would attract the attention of others, but built it outside the city, in a small village.
On this day, as soon as Suzaku arrived in the village, a young man ran over.
"Girl, you're here, we're being bullied again."
