Chapter 400: The Assassin from the Emerald Bamboo Pavilion

Lin Xin'er knew that she didn't have the ability to parry, and she couldn't dodge, so she simply didn't hide, sat on the chair indifferently, and calmly coped with the unknown unexpected.

The tip of the sword pointed directly at Lin Xin'er's throat, but it paused between an inch of approaching.

Lin Xin'er is like an aged statue, sitting still with great calmness, without panic.

The person with the sword didn't expect Lin Xin'er to fight back, this was completely different from the arrangement before he made the move, would it change his plan to come here?

Lin Xin'er stared at the person in front of her calmly, wrapped in black from head to toe, revealing only the holes in her eyes.

Lin Xin'er immediately thought of the person who assassinated Leng Muran that day, and he really didn't know men and women as Ximen Zhen said.

However, she was sure that this person was not the same as what Ximen Zhen was talking about, and that person who knew how to do hidden arts she had also encountered when she was in Wuli Peak, and although she had lost her martial arts at this time, she could also tell that the skills of the two were different.

Substitute for the dead ghost is a word that flashed in Lin Xin'er's mind and came to mind.

At this moment, Simon Che on the side picked up the tea cup on the table and struck at the sword.

The teacup shattered in response, and the sword body also shifted with the sudden force, and then Ximen Che swept in front of Lin Xin'er, and fought head-on with the black shadow that broke into the room.

A soft cry sounded outside the house, and soon, the footsteps of the palace guards rushed to Yunxiao Garden.

This time, the guards arrived in time, rushed into the house, and forced the black shadow outside the house to surround it, while Simon Che took the opportunity to avoid it and gave the black shadow to the guards to deal with.

"I didn't expect the guards to come to Yunxiao Yuan quite quickly." Lin Xin'er got up and walked to the door, seemingly casually.

"Bold Assassin, I've been looking for you for days, and I must take him down today!" Simon Che realized that this was another opportunity to express himself.

Last time, the Assassin escaped from Simon's hands, and this time it must not slip out of his hands again.

Last time, the assassin's target was Mu Ran, and he didn't stop it in time, but this time, if he wanted to assassinate Lin Xin'er, he couldn't continue to stand idly by.

Lin Xin'er stared closely at the besieged black shadow.

On the way to Cuizhu Pavilion, it was still close to Jinyang Palace, and those guards got the news and besieged the assassins, and they were half a beat slower, this time, she lived in this Yunxiao Garden, which had not been inhabited for many years, but she recruited guards so quickly, and she was able to control the assassins in time, which was really unusual.

Is it because the assassin's escape level is not good, or is there a rumor that the guards are tracking down the assassin, or is it all because the palace has been on guard all the time in the past few days? Or all three.

"Leave it alive!" Lin Xin'er reminded.

When she said this, she already had a bad premonition.

Since it is a substitute for the dead, it will definitely die, and what is uncertain is only the way to die.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the assassin slammed into the sword of one of the guards, and the long sword stabbed straight into his chest, the bloody tip of the sword piercing through his back.

She could see clearly that the assassin had struck the sword himself, and he could have avoided it, but he did not dodge, and died under the sword of the guard in this way.

The guards saw that the assassin had been killed by them, and they only regretted that they did not leave a living mouth, but for them it was a great achievement.

After being nervous for many days, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief and return to the emperor.

"See who it is?" The leader of the guard commanded.

One of the guards stepped forward and ripped off the hood of the man in black.

"Isn't this a father-in-law beside the third prince?" Someone recognized it.

"That's right, it's the person in front of the third emperor brother." Simon followed suit.

The person in front of Ximenyin?

Lin Xin'er walked over and looked at this assassin, with red lips and white teeth, he really looked like a eunuch.

Squatting down, Lin Xin'er groped around on that face, and tore off a human skin mask.

"It turned out to be fake, and the humble post immediately reported this matter to the emperor." Seeing this, the leader of the guard hurriedly said.

With that, he ordered the body of the assassin to be carried away.

"Shall we go and see?"

After everyone dispersed, Simon Che asked Lin Xin'er.

Lin Xin'er walked to the stone bench in the garden and sat down.

"No need, the emperor will deal with it." Lin Xin'er said.

It was clear that this was arranged to be sent to the door to die, in order to hand over an assassin and give an explanation, since the cloaked man had sent her a dead man, she did not have to press him hard, and he would do it.

The big storm is not yet the time to set off, and she still has to wait for Yi Yao's news to cultivate new strength to deal with the Demon Sound Emissary, not just the cloaked man.

At the moment, she wouldn't be in a hurry to dig up the Cloaked Man with all her might, and she wouldn't let the Voice Messenger sit back and watch her deal with the Cloaked Man while all the arrangements were still in place.

He set up all the games, but he wasn't the one who could eventually take charge.

Ximen Jinglie's heart disease was removed, and the people in the palace could finally relax and no longer be surrounded by the rumors of the arrest of the assassin.

However, the atmosphere in the Cuizhu Pavilion was suddenly tense, and this tension was contained in the infinite silence in the entire Cuizhu Pavilion.

In the green bamboo pavilion, it is extraordinarily quiet.

The people who worked in the Bamboo Pavilion never expected that the person who had been with them would be pretended to be an assassin, but fortunately, the assassin didn't do anything to them, which was quite a fluke.

Only Ximen Yin himself knows that the eunuch has actually been replaced by the people from the southeast with ** hall, and the real one has long been taken out of the palace by the southeast, and the bones are gone, and the fake substitute is a dead soldier who died for him at any time for him.

This is what he is referring to, the second person who will die, besides the eunuch who served him.

Now, he sent that subordinate out and ordered him to die, in order to suppress the storm and waves set up in the southeast, which was insignificant compared to the dead.

But the Assassin suddenly appeared, and someone had to be a substitute.

And this step happened to be used by him, and it could also solve some problems for him......

It's just that the plan has deviated a little.

Ximen Yin originally wanted the "assassin" to die in the hands of Lin Xin'er when he attacked Lin Xin'er, but Lin Xin'er didn't make a move at all, and the assassin also fought with Ximen Che.

When he traveled southeast to assassinate Mu Ran, Ximen Che was also present, I wonder if he would feel the change in the assassin's moves and recognize the flaws of not the same person?

He was not afraid that Lin Xin'er would find out the suspicions, but he was afraid that Ximen Che would not be able to suppress the matter and would come out first.

If Lin Xin'er is suspicious, she will not act rashly, she will only compete with him in secret, if Ximen Che finds out, she is afraid that she will not be able to hold her breath, if the emperor knows, this lie will need more lies to make up for it, it will be really troublesome.
