Chapter 38: The First Assassination
Next.
After pestering Jiang Jiuyuan for one night, Gu Zijiu was allowed to watch Chai Yi be executed. It's just that the scene is too bloody, and it is said that it is a public execution, but in fact, except for Jiang Jiuyuan and Gu Zijiu, only Jiang Chen was present, and even the emperor who was almost unable to stop Jiang Jiuyuan in the original atmosphere was not there.
After all, the scene of the five horses splitting the corpse is too bloody, in order to ensure the quality of their sleep in the future, everyone is just talking about the excitement at the beginning, and at this time, no one is really interested.
Not to mention someone like Gu Zijiu who is so excited, it is probably the first one.
Jiang Jiuyuan pinched his eyebrows, and glanced at Gu Zijiu who was watching this scene speechlessly, and then swallowed this thought again, and turned his head to look at Jiang Chen, who was conscientiously recording something.
It didn't take long for the wide ground to be soaked with Chai Yi's blood, and the bloody qi hit heavily, even in such a wide place, it couldn't help but smell bad because of such a bloody criminal law.
And Jiang Chen, who had been recording, smelled this smell, his hand paused slightly, and he suddenly ran down from the high platform, came to Chai Yi's corpse, and after saying a few words to the executioner, he began to piece Chai Yi's body together. Followed by...... I began to dissect it.
From a distance, although I don't know what else Jiang Chen's toolbox has, judging from Jiang Chen's own expression, it should be professional.
Jiang Jiuyuan put his hand on Gu Zijiu's eyes, and his mood was not as simple as being speechless.
His hand was still on Gu Zijiu's eyes, but he grabbed her shoulder with the other hand and turned around: "This king is going to the imperial study, and when this king comes out, we will go back to the house." ”
Gu Zijiu nodded, pulled down the hand that covered his eyes, and turned his head very reluctantly, although he couldn't see any sight, he still longed for it: "Then you go, I can just learn some experience from Jiang Chen, after all, the criminal law of dividing the corpse of the five horses is extinct in our place." ”
Jiang Jiuyuan: "......"
Pulled Gu Zijiu, who was eager to try, back, rewarded a meal of chestnuts by the way, and pulled her towards the direction of the imperial study while teaching a lesson: "Stay outside, wait for this king to come out." ”
Gu Zijiu was carried by Jiang Jiuyuan, and he had no chance to resist for a while, so he could only roll his eyelids and complain: "But Lord Wang, you say this as if you are going to go to prison, a girl's youth cannot be delayed, who knows how many years you will be imprisoned...... Oh. ”
Jiang Jiuyuan frowned, and gave Gu Zijiu another chestnut.
"If you feel bored waiting in the imperial study, go to the imperial dining room, in short, if this king finds out that you are mixed with Jiang Chen......" Jiang Jiuyuan said, and suddenly approached Gu Zijiu with a terrible laugh, grabbing her by the collar, giving people the feeling that they could easily take people's lives, "This king will eat your little fat fish." ”
“.…..”
Seeing that Gu Zijiu seemed to be shocked by his words, Jiang Jiuyuan hooked the corners of his lips with satisfaction, then let go of his hand and patted her head soothingly: "Although you are running around, there is this king if something happens." ”
When Gu Zijiu heard this, he immediately stretched out his hand and pointed to the place where Chai and his party were executed.
Jiang Jiuyuan's brows jumped, and he said, "Where do you go!" ”
Gu Zijiu, who felt that Jiang Jiuyuan's expression was too funny, finally stopped being funny, and couldn't help covering her mouth and chuckling, she wasn't too attached to Chai Yi's corpse, with Jiang Chen there, she would definitely not miss everything she wanted to know, and when the time came, just wait for the matter to be over and go directly to Jiang Chen.
You don't have to go there yourself.
Gu Zijiu curled the corners of his lips and smiled at Jiang Jiuyuan's intellect that was about to collapse.
I just think it's a bit interesting to quarrel with Jiang Jiuyuan.
After she had laughed enough, she waved at Jiang Jiuyuan and said, "Remember to come to the imperial dining room to pick me up later." ”
Jiang Jiuyuan stared speechlessly at Gu Zijiu's appearance of suddenly leaving honestly, subconsciously pinched his eyebrows, and after making sure that Gu Zijiu was really not joking, Jiang Jiuyuan put away his helpless look, recovered a cold face, and glanced at the attendant on the side: "Let's go." ”
“.…..” Good...... It's scary.
The other side.
Gu Zijiu, who had finished teasing Jiang Jiuyuan, was originally walking towards the imperial dining room honestly, but as soon as he left Jiang Jiuyuan's sight, he suddenly felt like a needle stabbing him, and his entire back instantly broke out in a cold sweat.
Gu Zijiu, who was halfway through, stayed in place, couldn't help rubbing his arms, and subconsciously glanced around.
No one.
There was no one on either side.
Behind is the execution office, the Great Wei people are still witches and ghosts, it is impossible to pick out suddenly at this time, and even the Praetorian Guards guarding the palace city can't see a person at this time.
Probably really disgusted to the extreme, and scared to the extreme, except for a few of them, I couldn't see any strange faces at all.
And this also sets off the current atmosphere is even more weird.
Gu Zijiu moved his feet without moving, his eyes looked to the side, and his whole body was on guard.
"Huh."
In the midst of the vigilance, a figure suddenly skipped from her right, so fast that she couldn't see who it was, but Rao was like this, which still made Gu Zijiu's pupils widen instantly.
No matter how fast the other party was, even if he tried his best to hide his figure, she still recognized Fang Cai's identity at first glance.
Gu Zijiu narrowed his eyes and snorted.
She is neither afraid of death nor ghosts, no matter how weird the current atmosphere is, she has no intention of retreating.
The figure appeared in front of Gu Zijiu again, he seemed to have noticed Gu Zijiu's gaze, and without a trace of hesitation, he immediately quickly skimmed away to the other side.
Gu Zijiu looked at the direction in which the person was leaving, frowned, and then rushed forward without thinking.
She was not very familiar with the palace, and she did not deliberately remember the direction when she came, and when she reacted, there was already a thick forest around her, and she couldn't even see a palace, she was chasing towards an unknown and desolate place, and the road behind her had already been re-paved with thorns, even if she wanted to retreat now, she had no sense of direction.
Now that the back road has been cut off, she can only rush forward resolutely.
I don't know that after chasing forward for too long, the scene that has been covered by the dense forest into darkness suddenly opened up, and a strong light rushed in from the front, and the bright Gu Zijiu subconsciously closed his eyes.
When her eyes adjusted to the light, she blinked several times, and then realized that she had gone forward on instinct for an unknown number of miles.
Now this place ...... Gu Zijiu frowned, and suddenly looked behind him, it was a high palace wall, there was no obstruction, there was no palace, and the back was full of wide roads, and there were no people.
She was deliberately and premeditated to be led outside the palace.
Gu Zijiu hooked the corners of his lips, and it was clear that there was no place to hide people around, but Gu Zijiu still said very firmly: "Your Excellency is quite leisurely, I am just a small girl in the palace, and I actually took great pains to lead Your Excellency to the outside of the palace." She smiled and said a few words, but her eyes were facing the wide road ahead, and the cold color under her eyes gradually thickened, "But you have wolf ambitions?" ”
As soon as the words fell, a figure suddenly floated out of front of him.
It should indeed be regarded as floating, because no matter how Gu Zijiu looked, he didn't find that the person who came had feet touching the ground, and his whereabouts were weird, as if there was no bracket and was blown out by the wind.
This person also has long hair scattered, his head is lowered, and he is wearing clothes that are almost the same as Chai Yi, no matter how you look at it, it seems that Chai Yi has been resurrected.
Ordinary people are afraid that they have already lost their souls when they see such a strange scene, but Gu Zijiu was not afraid at all, but walked towards him: "Your Excellency, why do you have to pretend to be a ghost, since you have successfully lured me out, do you still hope to use this illusion to scare me?" ”
The other party didn't speak, and it just so happened that a gust of wind blew his whole person back some distance.
Gu Zijiu looked at it, but smiled mockingly: "I can kill the real Chai Yi, how can I be afraid of you as an impostor?" ”
As she spoke, she suddenly rushed forward quickly, because there was no weapon in her hand, Gu Zijiu could only do it brutally, she looked at the other party's figure intently, trying to find his flaws in a short time.
Luckily, she did.
Gu Zijiu jumped up suddenly, relied on inertia to rush towards this person, and greeted him in the face with a punch, and when this person wanted to dodge, Gu Zijiu suddenly hooked the corners of his lips and kicked him in the abdomen.
"Poof."
Gu Zijiu stepped on his abdomen, bent down to look at the mysterious man whose face was covered by long hair even when he fell, groped around him for a while, and finally found a short sword that was not too long, the tip of which was towards the mysterious man's Adam's apple, and kept gesturing: "Since you are so good, how can you be caught up by me so easily?" Your acting skills are not up to par. ”
Gu Zijiu said lightly, but his hand was very heavy, and he was about to pierce his Adam's apple, the mysterious man finally chuckled, and finally stopped pretending to be a ghost, quickly held Gu Zijiu's wrist with one hand, and quickly touched his head.
Gu Zijiu frowned, glanced at the hand hidden in his sleeve, and didn't say anything, but suddenly changed the direction of the short sword and stabbed him fiercely at the shoulder.
The mysterious man seemed to be very satisfied with Gu Zijiu's violent temper, and snorted with great satisfaction, pressed Gu Zijiu under him, and stroked her cheek.
"It's really ...... that the dove has grown so fast when she leaves home Let me rejoice. As he spoke, he suddenly lowered his head, and the sound of gentle breathing sprayed on Gu Zijiu's neck, she rolled her eyes, and quickly raised her knees to push it up.
The mysterious man dodged perfectly, but Gu Zijiu also took the opportunity to loosen the restraints, stepped on his thigh, and slashed at his face with a sword.
The mysterious man took a few steps back and stared at Gu Zijiu, as if he was looking at a perfect work of art, which made Gu Zijiu can't help but want to scold.
At this time, the mysterious man suddenly made a gesture, and after the gesture, two factions of men with weapons appeared on both sides, looking at Gu Zijiu, as if he was looking at a dead man.
Gu Zijiu laughed mockingly: "The people of the Gu family are really in a hurry, I just came back, and I can't help but want to get rid of me." Gu Zijiu held a short sword in his hand, facing the wolf-like enemy, but his face slowly turned excited, "It's really a surprise." ”
The mysterious man didn't speak again, but the people on both sides suddenly moved, and they all rushed towards Gu Zijiu.
At this time, even if it is a person with strong martial arts, in the face of this siege, it will seem that he has more than enough heart and insufficient strength, not to mention that Gu Zijiu does not know any martial arts at all, and some only have those previous fighting experience.
Rao is like this, but Gu Zijiu still put on a good posture, showing a bloodthirsty smile, reflecting the closer and closer enemies in his eyes, and said with a smile: "Since you are here, don't think about going back alive!" ”
With that, two blood streaks spurted out, instantly igniting the rhythm of the war.
At this time, the sky is still high.
