Pushing the cup and changing the lamp, the palace banquet is in full swing, and there are many nobles who want to come forward to perform, just want to seize this almost soaring skyrocket.

This time, the things obtained by exchanging seven cities to Daming can give southern Xinjiang a little respite in a short time.

But if we don't rectify it from the root, sooner or later we will sit on an empty mountain.

Shen Yuan's gaze looked in Wei Yan's direction from time to time, but Wei Yan didn't seem to notice it, and he didn't know if he didn't recognize her or ...... Already forgotten.

Shen Yuan thought of Wei Yan's symptoms after being Gu Zhong, and guessed that Wei Yan's becoming like this should be related to the Gu worms planted in his body.

The pool of blood in her dream was a sign of foreboding, and perhaps the situation was a little more complicated than she had guessed.

Another round of dancing girls went to the hall, and Shen Yuan temporarily withdrew his gaze that fell on Wei Yan, and looked at the dancing queen who stepped into the hall without any focus, his fingers lightly buckled on the table, absent-minded.

Suddenly, I don't know what Shen Yuan saw, looking at the team of dancing girls walking in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly, and he asked Chu Xiu, "Aren't the dancing girls in the palace trained according to a fixed team?" ”

Chu Xiu replied as a matter of course: "Of course it is fixed, after the dancing girls in the palace enter the palace, they will first divide the team and then practice, and the personnel are also determined when they appear to perform, and there is no such thing as a midway replacement." ”

Hearing Chu Xiu say this, Shen Yuan did not let go of the lock, but looked at the faces of these dancing girls.

Shen Yuan never forgot it, she had seen this team of dancing girls just now, but now goodbye, there seem to be many fresh faces among them.

The sound of silk and bamboo sounded, and the enchanting dancers twisted their waists and showed their charm to the fullest, but Shen Yuan saw that two of the dancers were trembling slightly, and the afterglow would fall on the people around them from time to time, as if they were afraid of something.

Finally, the dancing girl led by stepped on the dance steps, stepped forward boldly, and slowly approached Chu Xu.

"Chu Xiu, do you have a weapon with you?" Shen Kite's voice was like a stream of water dripping into an oil pot in this noisy environment, and Chu Xiu's mood, which was originally slightly active because of the palace banquet, instantly calmed down.

"What's wrong?" The hand in Chu Xiu's sleeve had already touched the hidden weapon.

"There are assassins."

As soon as Shen Yuan's words fell, he heard the dancing girl who was originally close to Chu Xu suddenly pull out a soft sword from his waist and shouted angrily at Chu Xu: "Go die!" ”

At the same time, the assassins who had infiltrated the Mai Queen's team also showed their swords and killed anyone they saw, and everyone in this hall was their target.

Chu Xiu pulled Shen Yuan back, and the hidden weapon in his hand flew out, injuring one person.

Shen Yuan looked in the direction of Wei Yan, Wei Yan was in front of Chu Xu, and before he could unsheath the short sword to block the assassin's surprise attack, the blade of the soft sword was only two or three inches short of being able to hurt Wei Yan, but Wei Yan didn't blink his eyes.

Shen Yuan's heart was raised, and soon the situation was chaotic, several people had already been killed, and the timid nobles retreated again and again, not daring to look at them.

The entrance to the main hall was sealed, and no one could get out, and the sound of the silk and bamboo drums that should have stopped was still ringing, and it was obvious that those musicians were also enemies, and they used the music to cover up the sound of fighting and screaming, so as not to attract more people.

These assassins' martial arts are not low, and several generals are entangled and can't get out easily, not to mention the noble ladies and nobles who are powerless.

Chu Xiu kicked a table with force on his legs, and was split in two by the opponent's long sword, "There must be an internal response in the palace, wait for me to solve these people, and then catch the dog thief who betrayed my imperial brother Ling Chi!" ”

Although Chu Xiu said cruel words in her mouth, the injury in her abdomen had not completely healed, and she was still faintly in pain when she moved just now.

"Let's go, I'll take you to the imperial brother, it's safer over there, it's too dangerous here." Chu Xiu grabbed Shen Yuan and escorted her to Chu Xu's side.

The people around were in a mess, all afraid of being hurt by these sudden assassins, and they all scurried like headless flies, and some even pushed people out to block their own knives, and the smell of blood quickly spread in the air.

The scarlet short sword was unsheathed, Wei Yan seemed to be a killing machine that had been pressed into the machine, and after getting Chu Xu's order, Wei Yan opened the killing ring, shot ruthlessly, without any scruples, and did not care whether he would be injured or not.

When Shen Yuan saw Wei Yan like this, his brain suddenly became extremely blank.

Can't speak, doesn't hurt, doesn't remember, and only obeys one person...... This look is simply the second Xiao Nanshan.

"Don't get distracted at this time!" Chu Xiu pulled Shen Yuan to avoid a person, and finally entered Chu Xu's protective circle, "Brother Huang! ”

Chu Xu also recognized Chu Xiu, and he said to the two generals beside him: "Protect the princess." ”

"Yes."

Shen Yuan watched this fight with cold hands and feet, she wanted to stop Wei Yan, but she didn't have the courage to accept that fact.

Southern Xinjiang medicine people, once refined, can not grow old or die, but they have to pay the same price.

They lose their names, they lose their memories, they lose their sense of autonomy, they go from being people to tools......

A half-palm-sized dart landed right at Shen Kite's feet, Shen Kite lowered his eyes, staring at the sharpness of the dart, the light under his eyes slowly dimmed, and turned into endless layers of black and heavy accumulation.

Chu Xiu's attention was all on Chu Xu's body, so he couldn't see Shen Yuan behind him picking up the dart and hiding it in his hand.

Wei Yan almost single-handedly eliminated half of the assassins, and the remaining assassins were also taken down one after another, and all the musicians were executed on the spot, and none of them were spared.

The Praetorian Guards, who had arrived belatedly, also knelt down in fear, "The end will be too late!" Ask the king for forgiveness. ”

Chu Xu didn't let the people in the hall out, and after an assassination, dozens of people in the hall were killed and wounded, and the captured assassin committed suicide by poisoning, and not a single living mouth was left.

"Today, everyone is bringing their families to the banquet, right?" After the atmosphere was depressed and silent for a long time, Chu Xu suddenly asked.

The official in charge of the palace banquet came out with a roll and replied, "Yes...... It's ......"

Chu Xu laughed coldly and ordered: "Then it's easy to do, arrest all the family members, kill one in a quarter of an hour, there will always be one of your wives and daughters!" ”

Everyone knew that they could let so many assassins enter the palace banquet, and they could replace all the musicians, and they would definitely have their internal responses and even masterminds in the court.

"The king spares his life, the king spares his life! The minister doesn't know anything! ”

"The king spares his life!"

Chu Xu was unmoved, his eyes were full of anger, even if the price today was to kill everyone, he would not let go of the people who betrayed him!

"Brother Huang!" Chu Xiu was shocked in his heart, thinking of the five thousand people who were buried alive, Chu Xu's words now were by no means just words.
