Chapter 343: Full of Questions

This time, the assassin who came to assassinate Mu Lianqi was far sharper than any previous one, but in a few rounds, he killed seven or eight out of ten Janissaries and the Han general.

The Praetorian Guard, who was originally going to assassinate Mu Lianqi, had not yet stabbed Mu Lianqi with the sword in his hand, but was picked up by one of the young eunuchs beside Mu Lianqi.

The assassin obviously reported the heart of death for a quick victory, and every attack must be a courageous killing move, and he was not afraid of the sword at all, and was determined to kill Mu Lianqi, who was protected by Cao Zhu and Qiu Nian and others.

The Praetorian Guards and the Brocade Guards, who saw the signal in the distance, were still some distance away, and when they came to help, they were afraid that the assassins had already succeeded.

Cao Zhu and Qiu Nian resisted desperately, and each of them was injured to varying degrees, but fortunately, there was another extremely powerful eunuch who blocked most of the attack, otherwise the situation would have been even worse.

Seeing that the number of his own side was getting smaller and smaller, and the other party only had three people, but none of them were removed, Mu Lianqi's face became more and more gloomy.

During his three years on the throne, every once in a while someone would attempt to assassinate him, no matter how much he strengthened the city's defenses, and how he sifted through trusted Praetorian Guards and personal guards, these assassins were still able to find a way to get in.

It's hard to prevent!

Who is going to put him to death this time?

Does he have someone he can trust?

Cao Zhu's kung fu is wide open, suitable for combat purposes, and is not good at dealing with this kind of weird and fast assassins, every time he is suppressed by the assassins, he can only resist, and he has no power to fight back, and only Qiu Nian and the two eunuchs can follow the assassin's attack, but they are also tired of coping, and they have to protect Mu Lianqi, so they are a little weak.

This Jinyi Wei commander Qiu Nian, this year's twenty-six, is a majestic black-faced man, in the early years in the battle between Mu Lianqi and Hejiang once blocked an arrow for Mu Lianqi, and later also repeatedly made miraculous achievements, Mu Lianqi saw that he was calm and calm, but it was of great use, so after degrading Wei Ziheng, he was promoted step by step to the commander of Jinyi Wei and replaced Wei Ziheng's position.

In order to repay Mu Lianqi's kindness, Qiu Nian has always been loyal to Mu Lianqi and forgot to die.

At this time, Qiu Nian has also tried his best, without reservations.

Mu Lianqi knew that the current situation was extremely bad.

How could the Praetorian Guards support them so long? There must be an internal response that is holding back the pace of the Praetorian Guard, who will this internal response be?

"Your Majesty!" Cao Zhu was able to block the assassin's tricky blow, and finally got the opportunity to say a sentence to Mu Lianqi: "It is a shame to be humble, and you have let the Praetorian Guards hide a spy!" He betrayed Mu Lianqi's trust.

Mu Lianqi knew that he couldn't hold it anymore, "I want you to make meritorious service for your crimes!" ”

During the resistance, Cao Zhu was hit by another sword in his left shoulder, and the sword was so deep that it almost split his shoulder, and a large rain of blood sprayed out, causing Cao Zhu to break out in a cold sweat, and his face was as white as paper.

But he was stunned and did not fall, and guarded Mu Lianqi's body to the death, preventing the assassin from taking a step forward.

What an eye the assassin had, seeing that Cao Zhu was seriously injured, the offensive became more and more fierce, and he wanted to take Cao Zhu's life, as long as Cao Zhu died, there were only three people left around Mu Lianqi, and he was one step closer to killing Mu Lianqi.

The assassin thought that Cao Zhu had no luck with this final blow, but somehow, he suddenly couldn't move!

It seems that there is a thousand pounds of weight, and I can't even move a finger!

What's going on?!

He rolled his eyes with difficulty and looked at the other two companions, only to find that they too froze in place as if they had been immobilized.

Could it be that some master came and ordered their acupoints?

The assassins who were originally ruthless suddenly stopped, and their eyes widened one by one, revealing a look of surprise and uncertainty in their eyes, such a strange scene surprised Mu Lianqi and the others.

Since there are people secretly helping them, if they don't seize the opportunity, they will really become fools.

Qiu Nian shouted, and cut down an assassin with a single sword, and the remaining two were also killed by the two young eunuchs, one by one and one sword.

This kind of lifeless assassin, even if he spares his life, will not be able to ask for any useful information.

After killing these three assassins, Mu Lianqi and the others' faces were still grim.

Who knows how many traitors are still hidden in this palace, and how many more people will jump out of the shadows to assassinate Mu Lianqi.

Looking at the corpses in one place, Mu Lianqi's face was very ugly, but this was not the time for him to be angry, he wanted to find out the traitors in the Praetorian Guard as soon as possible, and not let the other party infiltrate his Praetorian Guard, so as to control the safety of the imperial city.

Lu Yang, who hid his figure, followed Mu Lian all the way after he got up, watched him outwit the traitor, severely punish the accomplices who were used by the traitors, and appeased the soldiers with grace and power, before returning to the Yonghua Hall on the East Road of the Inner Court.

It wasn't until everyone was waved back by Mu Lian that he showed a little tiredness.

Lying on the luxurious and atmospheric dragon bed, Mu Lianqi didn't seem to be sleepy, but opened a pair of charming Danfeng eyes, staring blankly at the bright yellow curtain, not knowing what he was thinking.

He is only 17 years old now, but he lives such a hard life, his career as an emperor must be very difficult, right?

Lu Yangyin observed Mu Lian in the dark for a while, and when he saw that he had been keeping his eyes open and not sleeping, he couldn't help but show his figure.

"Childe." Lu Yang's voice was very soft and immature, and he listened to it in his ears like a child.

Mu Lianqi has been facing assassination for a long time, and he has already developed the habit of not slacking off at any time, Lu Yang's son-in-law immediately startled him and jumped up from the bed, and the disillusionment sword in his hand also pointed straight at the direction where the sound was.

But when he saw the face of the person in front of him clearly, the sword in his hand could not pierce it no matter what.

"Silkworms?" His eyes suddenly widened, and his expression of disbelief was so obvious.

"You really remember." There was a shallow smile on Lu Yang's lips.

Before she came to see Mu Lianqi, she first found Xue Yan who was thinking about the nunnery, and took Xue Yan out of the palace and placed her in an inn outside the palace.

It stands to reason that after half of the final spell, it is impossible to remember it, so how can Mu Lianqi remember her?

With a stomach full of questions, Lu Yang came to the palace again, and happened to see Mu Lianqi in distress, so he rescued him.

"You're not dumb anymore?" Mu Lian's face was shocked, and then he reacted, "You did it before?" ”

Lu Yang nodded, with some hidden pity in his eyes. She thought that Mu Lianqi finally became the emperor, he must be proud of the spring breeze, and he couldn't be eternal, but she didn't expect that he, the emperor, would also deserve such a hard work.
