Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Assassin Raid
Arrows were fired from all directions, and before many soldiers could react, they fell to the ground with several arrows.
Qi Yu came out without a weapon, so he could only protect Qi Zhen in his arms and drill under the tree next to him, due to the dense arrows, Qi Yu dodged and dodged, and there were still some wounds on his arms and legs, and the wounds on his back were also cracked and oozing some blood.
As soon as a rain of arrows passed, dozens of black-clothed men rushed out of the darkness and went straight to everyone present.
Seeing this, Fourteen remembered that Qi Yu was both injured and unarmed, so he turned around and wanted to run this way, but Qi Yu shouted at him, "Keep the prisoner", Fourteen gritted his teeth and finally chose to ignore him and ran to the prisoner car.
Qi Yu protected Qi Zhen behind him, looking at the man in black who was getting closer and closer in front of him, his face full of vigilance.
The man in black must have known his identity, looked at each other, and some did not dare to step forward. Finally, one of them said, "He's wounded, don't be afraid of him," and the other black-clad men rushed towards them with their swords.
Qi Yu was about to meet him with his bare hands, but behind him, Qi Zhen handed him a short sword: "Be careful." ”
Qi Yu whispered "um", looking at the man in black who rushed over with a knife, the short sword in his right hand flicked, and the tip of the sword instantly sank into the eyebrows of the man in black at the front, and the man in black fell to the ground without snorting and lost his breath.
Qi Yu didn't procrastinate, he flashed to the corpse and drew out the short sword, turned around and saw the blade that was approaching the door, turned his waist over, and kicked his heel to the jaw of the person in front of him, and he heard a crisp sound from the neck bone of the man in black, and the whole person flew into the air and fell to the ground, I don't know.
The man in black who rushed up on the right was stunned by this speed, and in this stunned effort, the short sword had already pierced out of his abdomen, and the blood slid past the tip of the sword, falling to the ground with a click.
Qi Yu stood behind him, grabbed his hair with his left hand, gently put the short sword pulled out from his abdomen on his trembling neck, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Next time you kill, remember to turn yourself up a few pounds and a few taels first." ”
Then the man in black only felt a pain in his neck, and saw his warm blood spraying in front of his eyes, and after a few seconds, he lost his strength and fell to the ground without blinking his eyes.
The rest of the people in black looked at Qi Yu, who was smiling evilly at them with blood on his face, and said nothing in shock: they... The brothers who have been training together for more than ten years broke three without a trace of resistance?!
Qi Yu wiped the blood sprayed on his eyes with his sleeve, and said slowly: "Give you three seconds to roll, after three seconds, don't blame this king." ”
The three black-clothed men looked at each other, originally a little hesitant, but after hearing the "one" in their ears, a shudder came to their heads, and they quickly disappeared in place.
After Qi Yu saw them leave, his legs were weak and he was about to kneel on the ground, although he was not sensitive to pain, but the wound on his back almost hurt his heart and vein, and after it was cracked like this, it seemed to be connected to a sore tendon to fill his head, and it hurt one by one.
Qi Zhen walked over and wiped the blood on Qi Yu's face with his sleeve, looked at the person in front of him who was biting his lower lip and his face was in cold sweat, and asked softly, "But the wound is cracked again?" ”
Qi Yu was afraid that Qi Zhen would be worried, so he pulled an extremely ugly smile: "It's okay, let's go back." ”
Back next to the prisoner car, Fourteen was stabbing the short sword into the chest of the last man in black, and when he saw Qi Yu coming, he hurriedly asked him, "Are you okay?" ”
Qi Yu waved his hand: "I can't die, how about Chang Du?" ”
"It's okay, I came to protect him in time."
Qi Yu looked at Chang Du who was sitting in the cage and smiled: "Chang Daren's vision of making friends is not good, he will help you when he is proud, and you will find someone to kill you when you get off the horse, tsk." ”
Chang Du shrugged his shoulders with a smile: "No way, hasn't His Royal Highness King Jing heard a word?" There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. ”
"Chang Daren still sees it like this, I'm really curious, how could such a Chang Daren take refuge in Xu Tao for his son, shouldn't it."
Chang Du stared at Qi Yu's eyes: "His Royal Highness King Jing, which eye saw that I had taken refuge in the Prime Minister, you can't talk nonsense about things without evidence." ”
Qi Yu smiled: "Don't we all know it?" ”
Chang Du changed his posture: "You can think whatever you like." ”
Qi Yu and Chang Du looked at each other like this, and no one around dared to speak, and in the end, Qi Zhen looked at Qi Yu's soaked back, and his gradually pale, and reached out to carry Qi Yu back into the car, which ended this silent eye competition.
Three days later, in the night, in the Prime Minister's Palace:
"Smack!" The man in black turned back to the head that had been missed, and hung it low: "My lord, it's not that we are useless, it's that the martial arts of the Nine Princes are too high, and we are invincible to ......."
"Rubbish! It's all rubbish! Xu Tao was furious and slapped his palm on the table: "What's the use of me raising you for so many years!" ”
"I'm sorry, sir." The man in black bowed his head.
"Chang Du, Chang Du! His Jinling prefect is so useless! Qi Yu checked under his nose for seven days and didn't find it, it's really amazing! If I hadn't sent a message to deliver a message among us and didn't leave a paper document, I'm afraid I would have folded it in this time! ”
Xu Feiyu spoke: "Father is angry. ”
"I'm angry! How can I be angry! Xu Tao gritted his teeth and said word by word: "I originally wanted to win over Chang Du to get the support of the last third-grade civil official, and in the future, I, Xu Tao, will be able to say nothing in this court, who knows that I will lose my wife and lose my soldiers!" It's just the official book, but Tianzhi was also involved, and that is the control of Dali Temple! ”
Xu Feiyu dismissed the man in black and said to Xu Tao: "Father, I think that if this matter is found out, there must be someone behind Qi Yu to investigate, and this person is very likely to be Chang Du." ”
Hearing this, Xu Tao suppressed his anger and asked, "What do you say?" ”
"At first, I did believe that he came to you in order to save his only son, but then we asked him to deal with the victims as soon as possible, but he refused, but instead used your connections to conceal the disaster victims as a surface, and quietly contacted several ministers in official language behind his back, and the words of several ministers everywhere, don't you think he is pretending to cater to him, but behind his back he is extremely shrewd in collecting evidence?
He Chang Du can fight with you for twenty years, what a smart person he is, don't you know? Qi Yu has been gone for seven days, can he not find out? I don't think this matter has anything to do with him. ”
Xu Tao nodded: "I made a mistake this step, I really lost a big game of chess, all blame me for feeling that everyone in the court has bowed down to me in recent years, and there is no one in the court who can fight with me, I am a little complacent and proud, this time it really woke me up." It's a pity, Tianzhi ......"
Xu Feiyu took a step forward: "The matter has come to this point, and it is useless to regenerate qi." Father, from the emperor who summoned Qi Yu back despite the predicament of the first emperor, to Feng Qi Yu as a first-class general with heavy troops to fight against you, it shows that he is no longer willing to bow down to you, isn't it... It's time to start with another one. ”
Xu Tao remembered that Qi Yao's anger had just been extinguished and suddenly rose again: "Over the years, he Qi Yao has been afraid of me everywhere, I really thought that he had no revenge and no ambition, but I forgot that he was also a person who dared to slaughter his own brother and the Su family for the throne."
Now this dog emperor thinks that if he recruits a Qi Yu back, he can confront me and regain power, dreaming! The master hollowed out the Qi clan that took twenty years to hollow out, and he, Qi Yao, a puppet emperor, also wants to take it back, I want to see if he has the ability! ”
Xu Feiyu didn't answer, but said: "Tomorrow in the court, what is my father going to do about this case?" ”
"What else can I do, if I dare to protect Fang Tianzhi in person, Qi Yu will definitely bite me to death, now that Chen Xianzhong is still in Beijing, the situation does not allow us to fight hard. At this time, take a step back, and after Chen Xianzhong leaves, I will definitely ask them to pay back more! Xu Tao's fists gradually tightened, and his eyebrows were full of gloom.
"What about the other ministers?"
"If you can guarantee it, you can protect it, after all, it has been cultivated for many years, and newcomers are not easy to control."
"Understood." Xu Feiyu's eyes were empty: Qi Yu, I want to see what kind of storm your tiger can set off in the fox's den, bully my brother, and fix my father, let's not finish!
