Chapter 4: Assassination

The night was vast, Junyu heard the sound of steady breathing coming from Aunt Cheng's room next door and immediately got off the bed, quickly took out a set of night clothes from the wardrobe, took on his own sword, walked out of the yard on tiptoe, and carefully touched the back door all the way and turned around and walked out of the Song Mansion. There was no sound at all.

At this time, there was no one on the street because of the curfew. Junyu was dressed in black and hidden in the night, as if it belonged to the night.

She dodged the guards who came and went, remembering her morning route to the secluded alley. The lanterns in front of the doors of each house have been extinguished, and Junyu is relieved to boldly jump onto the wall. She rode on the wall, and the layout of the house was in full view. It's just a small courtyard with three entrances and three exits, which is shabby compared to the Song Mansion. Junyu couldn't help frowning, she never thought that Meng Langbian would be so frugal.

Seeing that there were no guards in the house, Junyu jumped to the ground. She estimated that Meng Langbian lived in the largest room in the house, so she walked forward quickly, and when she saw that there was no candlelight on the window paper, she was overjoyed, and took out the incense from her waist and blew it into the house.

After waiting for about a stick of incense, Junyu pushed the door in. Pulling out the long sword at his waist, he slashed at the bed without a trace of hesitation, but suddenly realized that this felt wrong. There is no thrill of a sword penetrating into flesh and bones, but softness.

She looked at it, there was only a futon on the bed, and there was no Meng Lang's figure at all.

"Are you looking for me?" There was a sound behind him. Jun Yu immediately turned around, the long sword in his hand pointed directly at Meng Langbian's throat, and every move and style carried a murderous aura, as if he would not stop without seeing blood.

This drug is violent, and it is not a problem to stun a horse, but why is Meng Langfang nothing at all!

Junyu doesn't think about these things anymore, since he has failed, he can only confront it head-on.

She gritted her teeth and rushed towards Meng Langbian with her sword, but Meng Langbian flashed easily to the side, and instead held Junyu's wrist firmly.

He felt the thickness of Junyu's wrist, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Woman? ”

Taking advantage of this gap, Jun Yu twitched his wrist, and then kicked Meng Langbian's abdomen, making him have to retreat again and again, looking like he was about to be suppressed by Jun Yu. His eyebrows froze, and a surge of killing intent poured out, suddenly as if he had changed a person, making Junyu shudder.

He drew his saber from his waist and held it in both hands, the blade sharp enough to split air in half. And Meng Lang's swordsmanship is extremely violent, and every blow is full of momentum, which makes Junyu tired of resisting.

"Dang!" With a bang, his sword slashed down, Jun Yu hurriedly took the sword to block it, only to feel a pain in the tiger's mouth, and it was actually cracked by the huge force, and his hands were cold and sticky.

Meng Langbian looked at the person in front of him with half-squinted eyes, although he covered half of his face, but these eyes were indescribably familiar. He asked in a cold voice, "Who sent you?" ”

"Nobody!"

Jun Yu gritted his teeth and said, quickly drawing his sword and stabbing at Meng Langbian's heart, while the sword he had been hanging in the air fell heavily and slashed on Jun Yu's left shoulder. Suddenly, the room was filled with the smell of blood, and their clothes were soaked with dark blood.

Meng Lang felt a pain in his chest, and he looked at the woman in front of him in surprise. How dare you have such a big courage to die together?

His sword used ninety percent of his strength, and directly opened the flesh to expose the white bones, and Jun Yu gasped in pain. She realized that Meng Langfang's martial arts were above her, and if she continued to stumble, she could only retreat again and again, without the power to parry. Seeing that Meng Langbian showed no signs of swinging her sword again at this time, she immediately jumped out of the door, covered her wounds and returned the same way.

The sound of the fight attracted Meng Langbian's guards, and the guard Xu Xia immediately turned his head and ordered when he first saw Meng Langbian's chest oozing blood: "Quickly invite Doctor Ye!" The other team chased after them quickly, and they wanted to see people alive and corpses when they died! ”

"No need to chase." Meng Langbian clutched his chest and sat down slowly. He was half-undressed, but fortunately he had always been cautious and wore gold silk soft armor, otherwise the sword would have pierced his heart.

Xu Xiachu showed that he was very incomprehensible, he was stunned for a moment before he spoke: "We secretly went to Jiangling, and we didn't leak the news, and there were even people who came to assassinate us." We must catch this person and ask the real culprit behind the scenes! ”

"I said no. This person has a strong nature, and he hates me to the bone by looking at the tricks. If you don't succeed today, you will definitely come again, and if you chase it with great fanfare, you will only startle the snake. Meng Lang raised his head and glared at Xu Xiachu in displeasure. He stretched out his hand, and in the palm of his hand was a blood-stained spike of sword. "This is what I got from that man's sword, you asked Song Han to quietly check the source of this thing."

Xu Xiachu immediately took the sword and nodded, and without delay, he immediately called Song Han who was sleeping over.

Song Han is also a smart person, and when he saw that most of Meng Langfang's subordinates came to look for him, he immediately knew the importance of the matter. He respectfully asked Xu Xiachu: "I don't know if the Hou Ye called me late at night, but what happened?" ”

"Master Hou was injured by the assassin, but fortunately it is fine. Such a thing fell from the thief, and the people of our Hou Mansion were afraid that it would be inconvenient to investigate. With that, Xu Xiachu handed the sword spike in his hand to Song Han.

After listening to his words, Song Han also had a bottom in his heart. It seems that Wei Yunhou wants to borrow the power of the Song Mansion to investigate this matter, and since Song Han got on the Hou Ye's ship, he can only be obedient. He lowered his head and looked at the sword spike in his hand, and saw it very clearly through the moonlight. This shape resembles the reality given to Junyu.

Xu Xia was stunned when she saw him for the first time, and asked with half-squinted eyes: "Why is Song Gongzi staring at this sword spike, but what are the clues?" ”

"Huh?" Song Han was stunned, and quickly shook his head and smiled awkwardly. "I just think it's very common, and I'm afraid it's a bit difficult to get to the root of it."

"Nothing." Xu Xiachu said casually with her hands behind her back, and Song Han's heart was beating secretly when she heard it, and she didn't dare to speak.

When everything was ordered, Song Han returned to the Song Mansion and it was already dawning. He sat in the room staring at the blood-stained sword spike and frowned, he was full of sorrow in his heart, and he didn't believe that this was Junyu's sword spike. She has been in the Song Mansion for many years, and she has never been involved with Meng Langbian, so how can she have a deep hatred, but ......

sat and thought about it for about an hour, until the little maid who came to call early knocked on the door and entered, Song Han relieved himself.

He hid the sword spike in the cabinet and walked towards the courtyard where Junyu lived with his hands behind his back.

After Junyu was injured from Meng Langbian, he gritted his teeth all the way and returned to the Song Mansion in one breath. After taking off her clothes, she saw that the wound was so serious, she could only bite the handkerchief, forcibly cleaned the wound and applied medicine, during which she fainted several times. A face was as pale as paper due to excessive blood loss, so Junyu, who never applied rouge, had to wipe a little on his cheeks, and he became popular when he looked at it.

Song Han stood at the gate of the courtyard, thinking for a long time and not knowing how to speak, and happened to meet Junyu who had just gone out.

"What happened to the young master early in the morning?" Jun Yu had a light smile on his lips, but there seemed to be a stone hanging in his heart. She secretly observed this Song Han's expression and noticed the unnaturalness in her eyes.

"I got up early this morning and had nothing to do, so I wandered around the house for a while, and I happened to come to you. By the way, can I wear the sword spike I gave you? Song Han said casually.

Junyu was prepared. When she came back, she found that her sword spike was gone, and she was afraid that she would have a clue because of it, so she endured the pain and made a similar one according to her impression. Hearing Song Han say this, he immediately turned around and entered the house, took it out, and shook him from afar.

"Since it was given by the young master, how can I wear it by my side every day, I am afraid of bumping into it or losing it, so I feel happy to hang it on the head of the bed and look at it." After Jun Yu finished speaking, he stuffed the fake sword spike into his sleeve, tilted his head and asked. "Isn't the young master worried about me?"

"Not really." Song Han waved his hand again and again. In fact, I didn't look at it carefully at all, and when I saw Jian Sui, I put my mind at ease and didn't stay here longer.

When Jun Yu saw him leave, the gentle smile that was still hanging just now disappeared in an instant.

She only thought that Song Han was flattering Meng Langfang out of courtesy, but now she actually came to ask about Jian Sui, and it seems that the relationship with Meng Langfang is not ordinary.
