Just as Shen Lian and the three of them had just touched the wall and entered the courtyard from a dead corner...... With a 'thud', a flaming arrow was thrown into the courtyard and nailed to the window frame of a house.

"Still coming?!" When Jin Yichuan saw this scene, he didn't know that the three of them were framed again?

But at this time, it is too late to think too much.

Several big men in the courtyard had already drawn their knives and were alert, and their sharp eyes scanned the shadows in the courtyard and the ridges of the walls.

At this moment, the whereabouts of the three of them could no longer be hidden.

At the same time, the entire quiet courtyard also began to stir, and Shen Lian could hear it clearly: the sound of countless footsteps and the sound of swords unsheathed and colliding one after another.

"Looks like there's something really wrong with these guys." By this time, many things no longer need to be examined.

Ordinary caravans would never have such a number of swords in their possession, and these people were so alert that they reacted so violently after being attacked at night...... It can't be the style of an ordinary caravan.

The Jinyi Guard Brigade outside the door was still silent.

"!" Jin Yichuan scolded and pulled out his double blades.

Lu Jianxing also pulled out his broad-bladed broadsword, which was quite Song Dynasty style, and the handle of the knife became a long rod with a twist and a pull, obviously a heavy knife held in both hands.

Compared with the two brothers, the Yanling Knife in Shen Lian's hand was not so distinctive.

However, when it comes to martial arts, Shen Lian is the most powerful of the three, even with this standard long knife, the Jinyi Guard in the Beizhen Fusi does not dare to say that someone can win him one-on-one.

The three were fenced off.

Seeing that this matter could not be good, Shen Lian had no choice but to show his identity: "Jinyi Wei is doing things, this house has been surrounded!" Still not tied up? ”

Shen Lian didn't expect these people to really be caught just by revealing the identity of the Jinyi Guard.

But when he said these words, and found that there was not a single one of them who flinched or hesitated, his heart sank.

You must know that the notoriety of Jinyiwei is well known to passers-by in the Ming Dynasty!

Although with Chongzhen's boarding, Dongchang and Jinyiwei have gradually declined, but as the so-called "tiger dies and Wei You is here", once the identity of the case is revealed on weekdays, almost no one will not feel worried!

Whether it was Wei Zhongxian's wealthy disciples before, or the big families and sects with rich people, which one didn't first instigate three points after hearing the name of Jinyiwei?

And at the moment these people are unmoved.

Obviously, this will is not comparable to the people he has dealt with before.

"These gangs are all bandits, be careful for a while." Shen Lian quietly changed his posture and said to Lu Jianxing and Jin Yichuan.

However.

Just when Shen Lian thought that a vicious battle was inevitable, the street across the courtyard wall suddenly burst into a burst of crossbow shooting and screaming.

Immediately after that, there were sudden shouts and fights.

And with Shen Lian's excellent ear power, he could also tell that chaos seemed to have erupted in the distance.

It seemed that in an instant, several nearby streets were full of fighting, and it became chaotic.

"What's going on? What happened? The third brother Jin Yichuan's expression faltered, and he glanced out of the door in a bit of a panic, but unfortunately he couldn't see anything through the gate and the courtyard wall.

At this time, the main entrance of the main house in the courtyard opens.

I saw a young man dressed as a scholar and carrying a long knife at his waist.

He glanced at the three of them with a smile, arched his hand and said, "Three, if you Jinyiwei came to the door yesterday to arrest people, or even came over during the day, I, Chen, would really be helpless!" I can only risk my life and struggle to the death. ”

"But...... Now it's too late! ”

"What do you mean!" Listening to this person's northwest accent, Shen Lian stared at the other party with sharp eyes and asked.

But even without the other party's answer, Shen Lian also had an ominous premonition in his heart.

Rumble——! Rumble——!

Rumble——!

Bursts of sound rang from far away, like muffled thunder rolling in the sky...... Shen Lian's face suddenly turned pale!

Jin Yichuan and Lu Jianxing next to him were stunned, and they couldn't tell what the voice was, and looked at Shen Lian, who was always ice on weekdays, but his complexion changed greatly at this time.

Shen Lian felt a wave of dizziness.

He barely stabilized his mood, his tone was difficult, and his voice suddenly became much hoarse, and said, "Cannon, at this time, the sound of cannons." ”

"Cannons? How could anyone in the capital open fire? "Jin Yichuan is still a little flustered.

Lu Jianxing on the side had already reacted, and his long face suddenly turned pale: "It's not from Jingying...... The sound of artillery came from outside the city. ”

"Outside the city?!" At this time, even Jin Yichuan understood the seriousness of the matter.

This is the capital!

Daming Hub!

Suddenly shelled in the middle of the night, where could it be a trivial matter?!

A terrible guess had already surfaced in the minds of the three of them at this time......

"Chen An......"

At this time, a crisp children's voice suddenly came from inside the house.

Shen Lian and the three of them followed the prestige, only to see that with the voice, Chen An stood sideways by the door respectfully, and the character he treated with this respectful and careful appearance was just a boy dressed strangely, with shorts on the bottom and a buttonless shirt with only half sleeves on the upper body.

Even more strange than this dress and dress were the boy's half-length silver-white hair, and his strange blue eyes, which did not look like a child's eyes at all.

"Oh? It's Shen Lian......" As soon as the boy spoke, the three of them were surprised.

They didn't expect the other party to know them.

And immediately afterwards, what the boy said made them a little confused: "I thought the plot had reached the point where Zhao Jingzhong defected to Houjin, and you and Ding Xiu went to chase and kill." ”

Zhao Jingzhong defected?

Houjin?

Ding Xiu?

Jin Yichuan frowned, as if he was a little irritable: "Ding Xiu? Where is Ding Xiu? ”

Luo Shen glanced at him and said, "Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with your senior brother who fell in love and killed each other, and it has nothing to do with your dead master." I'm not so bored to find little people like Ding Xiu or Hokusai......"

"Oh, that's right—depending on your reaction, sure enough, this place has nothing to do with the Embroidered Spring Knife 2 Shura Battlefield......" Luo Shen glanced at Shen Lian, who had no reaction after hearing the name "Hokusai", and said to himself.

But.

The fact that the worlds of Embroidered Spring Knife 1 and Embroidered Spring Knife 2 belong to two parallel universes is not a bad thing for him, because it means double the resources.

Rather, if the two worlds were one...... The current living conditions of Emperor Chongzhen and Shen Lian cannot be explained.

After all, in chronological order, Embroidered Spring Knife 2 should be counted as a prequel to 1.

After thinking about this clearly, Luo Shen ignored the three brothers anymore, turned his head and asked Chen An, "Is everything going well?" ”

Chen An nodded and replied respectfully: "All the way from Shanxi, we have used the 'white worm' to control the local governors and some of the defenders in advance, and we are under the banner of the Ming army, so we went to the woods fifteen miles outside the city this evening to temporarily station. ”

"During this time, we have also controlled some ...... the defenders of the capital Although the key figures have not yet been controlled, several city gates have been arranged with internal responses, and according to the plan, the garrison will be concentrated in the north of the city by shelling the north gate, and the other city gates will be directly captured in one fell swoop when the garrison is empty. ”

After listening to Chen An's report, Luo Shen, who knew that everything had been planned, nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's good, what about the city side?" Don't let those yamen and officials run along. ”

"My lord rest assured, now that several key yamen within the Beijing Division have sent people to attack, and there is a team of people specifically staring at the palace and the mansions of those dignitaries, and they will definitely not be allowed to gather together smoothly."

"Seize the time to expand the manpower, parasitize all the fifty vats of white worms we brought, and prevent the Ming army from counterattacking."
