Chapter 284: Assassin
The leading dancer walked towards the high platform where Prime Minister Li Cheng was, apparently to celebrate Prime Minister Li Cheng's birthday. Those who can enter the Li Mansion have been selected at various levels, and their ancestors have been clearly investigated for eighteen generations, so Li Cheng is still relatively relieved to these people.
However, at this moment, the dancing girl took out a soft sword from her waist and went directly towards Prime Minister Li Cheng, who was sitting on it alone, the soft sword flashed with a faint cold light in the light of the sun.
"The Li family dog thief, take your life."
"Assassin, there is an assassin, everyone catch her, don't let her escape."
The appearance of the woman in red suddenly made the Prime Minister's Mansion, which was originally a peaceful life, suddenly chaotic.
After all, Prime Minister Li has been sitting in that position for so many years, and there are some masters around him in case of emergency, after all, people like him are used to this kind of assassination.
The woman in red had just appeared, and in front of Prime Minister Li Cheng, there was a man wearing a mask in the mirror, and he raised his hand to block the soft sword of the woman in red.
A woman saw that the sword in her hand was only a little bit away from Prime Minister Li Cheng, but she didn't expect that it would fall short in the end.
The guards forced the woman in red to stay away from Prime Minister Li Cheng, and the woman in red originally wanted to use other means, but because the distance was too far, he had no way to use his ability at all.
Ye Shuyun stood beside him, finding a place to hide like the rest of the family, not participating in the chaos at all. However, she was secretly carefully observing the woman's every move.
Obviously, in terms of martial arts, the woman in red is not the opponent of the guards specially cultivated by the Li Mansion, but Ye Shuyun can see that the woman in red has other abilities, but because of the current situation, she can't show her ability at all.
As Ye Shuyun thought in his heart, but with a cup of tea, the same woman was set up by several guards, and there were still some scars on her arms, looking very embarrassed.
"A bold thief, who dares to assassinate the prime minister on his birthday, is simply a heinous crime, and it is not a pity to die a thousand times or ten thousand times."
Seeing that the woman in red was subjugated by the guards of the Li Mansion, some officials present immediately came out to show their loyalty, wanting to gain Prime Minister Li's attention in this way, and naturally they would be able to gain benefits in the court at that time.
The woman in red was pressed by several guards, but she looked up at Prime Minister Li Cheng on the high seat, her eyes were full of hatred, "The dog thief of the Li family, everyone in the Li family should die, they should pay for the lives of the whole Miao Jiang clan, and they should pay for my mother's lives." ”
The hatred in the woman in red's tone seemed to burn the entire Li family to ashes, but now that she was being pressed and couldn't do anything.
Miao Jiang?
When the people present heard these two words, a surprise flashed in their eyes, and they were a little shocked.
Many people in Miao Jiang know about it, but everyone knows that Miao Jiang was exterminated a hundred years ago, so what does Miao Jiang and other exterminations have to do with the Li family?
However, the Li family is just a family, how can it have a relationship with the mysterious Miao Jiang?
And listening to the meaning of the woman in red, it seems that the Li family did the extermination of the Miao Jiang clan at the beginning, and it can be concluded from here that the same woman is from Miao Jiangzhong, and his mother seems to have died in the hands of the Li family.
The people present are not stupid, the woman in red said a few simple words, they seem to have guessed in their hearts, as for whether the guess is right or not, then they don't know.
The woman in red had just said a few words, and was signaled by Prime Minister Li Cheng, who was gagged by the guards and couldn't say anything, so she could only look at Prime Minister Li with a pair of eyes full of hatred, as if she was going to eat him alive.
Ye Shuyun looked at the woman in red who was restrained, her face was delicate with a little charm and a little exotic beauty. Ye Shuyun once read in the classics that because Miao Jiang is located on the edge of several countries, his appearance will be more inclined to exotic style.
If Ye Shuyun didn't guess wrong, this woman in red should be from Miao Jiangzhong.
It's just that Ye Shuyun feels a little puzzled that Miao Jiang was wiped out a hundred years ago, this girl should not have been born yet, according to the time calculation, Miao Jiang's extinction should be in the generation of this girl's grandmother.
After such a long time, the hatred of the juniors should have been diluted, at least not so strongly, but looking at this girl's eyes, it didn't seem to be as he guessed.
And I just heard Hongying woman mention his mother, could it be that his mother also died at the hands of the Li family?
But why did the Li family hurt her mother?
Ye Shuyun guessed that there must be some things he didn't know, and these dusty truths would one day be unveiled by him.
Before Ye Shuyun could figure it out, the woman in red had already been taken down.
Prime Minister Li Cheng on the high seat had a blue and black face, but fortunately he asked the guards to block the mouth of the woman in red in time, otherwise he would ...... today
But even so, it's better to hold something that shouldn't be exposed.
Just a moment later, Prime Minister Li's expression returned to normal, as if nothing had happened, if it weren't for the mess in the courtyard, maybe everyone really thought that it hadn't happened, and it was just their hallucination when they heard those words just now
But looking at this mess, it is clear that everything just now has really happened.
Because of what happened, the banquet ended quickly, but Prime Minister Li still had a lot to do, just let the woman in red be locked in the dungeon and interrogated when he had time.
Ye Shuyun saw that the time was almost up, and left the Li Mansion quietly. After Ye Shuyun left, all the subordinates of the Li Mansion were summoned, and after today's incident, the Li Mansion naturally had to be strictly investigated, and these had nothing to do with Ye Shuyun.
Ye Shuyun thought about the woman in red in his heart, but now is obviously not the best time to save people, the woman in Hongying has just been caught, and she should be strictly guarded at this moment.
Although Ye Shuyun is strong in martial arts, Prime Minister Li Cheng has been in this position for so many years, if his subordinates say that there are few secret weapons, he really doesn't believe it.
If Ye Shuyun goes to save people, he will have to bring an injured person with him at that time, and he can come out, but it may not be possible to bring the woman in red out.
Be careful, Ye Shuyun still did not recklessly enter the Li Mansion directly to save people, but in a tavern outside the alley of the Li Mansion, until it was dark.
When the bright moon rose, a trace of moonlight entered the tavern and reflected in the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ye Shuyun put down the wine glass, and there was a faint aroma of wine on his body.
This tavern is owned by Wuji Building, Ye Shuyun changed into a night suit, and directly climbed over the wall and entered the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After the events of the day, the garrison of the Prime Minister's Mansion was more tightly guarded than usual, and there were constant guards patrolling back and forth. Ye Shuyun also felt that there was comfort in the shadows watching, this was simply an iron wall, such a degree of strictness was even better than that of this palace.
Such a strict guard made Ye Shuyun's heart even more puzzled, what secrets are hidden in the Prime Minister's Mansion so that so many people can guard them?
Although Ye Shuyun's heart was puzzled and curious, it was obvious that now was not the time to dwell on this, his mission to enter Chen Xiang's Mansion this time was to rescue the woman in red during the day.
Just the few words of the woman in red during the day, Ye Shuyun has a reason to rescue her, and maybe she can also find clues on him about the extermination of the Miao Jiang clan a hundred years ago, which is her biggest purpose.
Although the Prime Minister's Mansion was heavily guarded, Ye Shuyun's martial arts were not covered, after dodging those pairs of eyes in the dark, Ye Shuyun went around a few times, entered the interior of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and grabbed a family member, and asked in a cold voice: "Where is the assassin caught by the Prime Minister during the day?" ”
"If you don't say it, I'll kill you right now." Ye Shuyun didn't have time to talk so much nonsense with that man, and asked directly, the sword was still on the man's neck.
The man who was caught by Ye Shuyun felt the cold air on his neck, and suddenly trembled with fright, and said tremblingly: "The ground ...... The dungeon, where the daytime assassin was put into the dungeon. ”
"Where's the dungeon?" Ye Shuyun continued to ask.
The man was scared in his heart, his little life was being held in Ye Shuyun's hands, and he didn't dare to hide it at this time, and continued to stammer: "Next to the East Courtyard, someone is guarding." ”
got the news about the woman in red during the day, Ye Shuyun had nothing to ask, and directly knocked the person unconscious to the ground, according to the strength of his attack, this person will be able to wake up at least tomorrow morning.
At that time, she had already fled with someone and left the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After knocking out the family, Ye Shuyun walked towards the east courtyard that the family said, avoiding those bright and secret eyes, and Ye Shuyun finally found the dungeon of the Li Mansion.
Ye Shuyun managed to lure away the people guarding the door and entered the dungeon directly. Ye Shuyun originally thought that he would be able to see the woman in red when he entered, but after entering, what he saw instantly was not the woman in red, but other people who were locked in the dungeon.
In the dungeon of the Prime Minister's Mansion, Ye Shuyun saw that some people who had been judged to be missing, or who had absconded in fear of crime, were now dying in the dungeon, and there were some court officials who did not obey Prime Minister Li.
Ye Shuyun gasped when he looked at these people, even the officials of the imperial court dared to detain him, Prime Minister Li Cheng's courage was really fat, but he didn't know how fat he was.
Ye Shuyun walked forward lightly, and suddenly heard the sound of talking in the cell inside, which was very subtle and ordinary people couldn't hear it at all, but who made Ye Shuyun a martial arts master, even if the voice was very small and blocked by the wall, Ye Shuyun could still hear a little.
"Where are your accomplices? If you recruit it, the old man may be able to save your life, if not, don't blame the old man for being polite. Ye Shuyun heard that Prime Minister Li Cheng's majestic voice was full of killing intent, and he had no doubt that Prime Minister Li Cheng would kill the woman in red in front of him without blinking an eye.
However, the woman in red didn't seem to notice the killing intent emanating from Prime Minister Li's body, or maybe she didn't care at all, and scolded: "Dog thief, if you have the ability, you will kill me, and one day my people will avenge me and let your Li family get the punishment they deserve." ”
"It's not enough for your Li family to kill the entire Miao Jiang clan, even my mother won't let go, if I don't die, one day I will kill you to pay for my mother's life."
