Chapter 244: The Meeting of the Five Cities (8)
Mobile reading
The last one, Ye Buxiu, the city lord of Broken Leaf City. This guy is very interesting. Ever since he stepped up to the dune terrace, his eyes have been flowing with something indescribable, and he is always evasive, even when he is eating, there are a lot of small movements. Emperor Xi, the city lord of Broken Leaf City, has long heard of it, he is a guy with a fat brain, and he is better than his grandson, and he almost doesn't care about Broken Leaf City on weekdays, and the reason why Broken Leaf has a black market is inseparable from the city lord's policy of resignation.
What's even more interesting is that the guards who followed behind Ye Buxiu were the same panicked as their masters, rubbing their hands and touching their noses from time to time behind Ye Buxiu, their hands were crossed and lowered, put down and crossed, looking very anxious. And what's even more interesting is that the guards behind Ye Buxiu are the only ones present who let Emperor Xi see the blade.
Maybe Ye Buxiu didn't bother to hide, the sword hung on the guard's waist, and there was no appearance of hiding at all.
Emperor Xi couldn't help but have a question in his heart. Could it be that Ye Buxiu? This person is so blatant but a thief, if he makes a move, it is impossible for no one to guard against it.
Judging by the situation, Ye Buxiu is the most likely one, but Ye Buxiu and his subordinates don't look like people who do big things, and assassinating Ye Yueming is probably a difficult thing for them.
After looking at the four city lords, Emperor Xi was confused. On the surface, Ye Buxiu is the most likely to start, but Ye Buxiu's performance is too speechless, and he has become the most unlikely one. Among the remaining three people, Yang Zhong is upright, Fang Ying is scheming, and Su Qin is sophisticated, so it is really difficult to tell who is going to start.
Di Xi hesitated in her heart, so she planned to simply go back to the dune terrace and accompany Ye Yueming directly, she was confident that with her and Chang Li, no matter how ulterior motives the other party had, the conspiracy should not succeed.
With her mind decided, Emperor Xi walked back quickly, using the ability of Tianyan to the fullest, monitoring the situation on the dune terrace at all times, and at the same time she tried her best to communicate with Changli, who had excellent eyesight, so as not to cause an accident before she arrived.
However, the situation has always been changeable, and Emperor Xi walked less than half the way back when he suddenly saw an extremely unbelievable thing happening on the terrace of the dunes.
Ye Buxiu, who was sitting in the lower position on the left side of Ye Yueming, actually smashed the cup, and the panicked guard who followed him actually drew his sword out of the sheath, but what is more dramatic is that I don't know if the sword is too long or this guard is actually a wine bag and rice bag, and he almost tripped himself when he drew his sword.
Because his movements were not very smooth, he gave Ye Yueming time to react. However, Ye Yueming's reaction was also incredible, he actually just raised his chopsticks, and then stopped making any movements.
Emperor Xi was so frightened that he almost fell to the ground, and he really couldn't understand what was going on on the dune terrace.
Fortunately, after Ye Buxiu's guards drew their swords and unsheathed them, Yang Zhongyi and Fang Ying's guards also struck together. Yang Zhongyi's guards blushed, took out a small dagger from his arms and rushed forward. Fang Ying's guards opened the lid of the pot and reached out to fish out a short sword from it, which made Emperor Xi stunned.
The three guards flanked back and forth, and pounced on Ye Yueming one after another, but Ye Yueming still maintained the movement of raising his chopsticks, and there was no panic on his face. Emperor Xi was also a little anxious in his eyes, and he didn't care about anything else, he directly pressed his hand on Luan Yu, hooked the vast aura on Luan Yu, and a divine flash lotus appeared in front of Ye Yueming, as if the heavenly maiden had descended to earth, and protected Ye Yueming behind him.
"You can wait for his heart!" Emperor Xi said hatefully, snatched the chopsticks from Ye Yueming's hand, and struck them at Ye Buxiu's guard, who was the first to pounce, but something more interesting happened the moment she made a move.
Ye Buxiu's guard shook his hand, actually threw away the sword, and knelt on the ground with a thud.
Before Emperor Xi could react to what was happening, he saw that Yang Zhongyi and Fang Ying's guards also fell to the ground one after another, and at the same time, Ye Yueming slowly got up and looked at the few people present with a smile.
"What? Come to Xiao Wang's banquet, don't you have any preparation at all? Ye Yueming gently pulled the imperial seal behind him, and his eyes were full of smiles: "Xiao Wang thought that you people could give Xiao Wang a little surprise, but I didn't expect it...... The frightening was even more. Do you dare to eat what Xiao Wang gave you? Aren't you afraid of Xiao Wang's poisoning? ”
Fang Ying leaned back in the chair quietly, obviously not having much strength in his body: "When did the prince poison him?" The old man didn't move a sip of the dishes that came up, and he didn't drink any wine. ”
Ye Yueming didn't answer his question, but turned his head to look at the emperor: "Does the county lord feel a little sore?" ”
Ye Yueming didn't say anything, but as soon as he said it, Emperor Xi felt that something was not quite right in his body, and his hands seemed to have lost his strength.
"You ......" Emperor Xi was very strange, she had just arrived at the high platform, how could she ......
Ye Yueming grabbed the emperor seal and placed her on the chair she was sitting on before, then flicked her sleeves and said, "You people are all scheming, I expect you to eat boldly with confidence, Xiao Wang is not so stupid." So there is poison, but it's not in the food, but the taste of Xiao Wang. ”
Until this moment, Emperor Xi didn't smell an extremely faint fragrance on Ye Yueming's body, the smell was too light, so faint that he couldn't smell it at all if he didn't smell it carefully, and this fragrance was more like a medicinal fragrance, and it wouldn't attract people's attention.
"I'm closest to you, so my potions work much faster than theirs." Emperor Xi figured this out, but he no longer panicked. Since it is Ye Yueming's hand, she is poisoned Ye Yueming is not in a hurry at all, presumably this poison is more like a sweat medicine such as numb tendon powder, and it should be normal after the effect of the medicine.
"That's true. This place is open, and the effect of the medicine is not easy to spread, so they have been recruited for a longer time than Xiao Wang expected, but it doesn't hinder it, and there is still no major incident. Ye Yueming said, took out a pill from his arms and fed it to the emperor: "The county lord will take the antidote first, this is not an ordinary poison, when he first entered the body, he just felt that his limbs were sore, and after a long time, it would kill people." ”
When Emperor Xi heard this, he immediately swallowed the pill without saying a word, and the bitter taste of the pill lingered in his mouth for a long time, even if it was Emperor Xi who was immersed in the medicine jar every day hundreds of years ago, his face turned green when he took a bite.
"Lord Wang, what you do is simply out of the standard of a husband." Su Qin, who had been eating Haisai nonsense, spoke up at this time. The guard under him who was dressed as a man did not move, and he did not make any movement, when the guards of the other three people swarmed up, Su Qin was still eating very calmly, and the guards were also standing behind him indifferently, and the two of them were like people far away from the center of the storm, without any interference.
