Chapter 26: The Assassins

The Nanjing Mansion Prison is heavily guarded. Ten feet away from the prison for death row prisoners is the morgue. The first is to provide for examination, and the second is that some prisoners have not survived the sentence and died, so they are temporarily parked. There are also those who die horizontally like Tieheng and are unclaimed.

At night, jailers make rounds every hour.

When the child was approaching, the morgue was silent. The sound of insects in the morgue was infuriating, and the patrolling people were so bold that they couldn't help but speed up their pace and want to cross it earlier.

The shadow flashed, one of the guards screamed, and then disappeared under the flowers.

His cry was very high-pitched and short, as if a plosive sound had just burst out of his throat, but before the sound could be formed, and before the breath could rush out of his throat, he was forced to hold back, so it seemed very strange.

The voice was eerie, but not high-pitched, and the morgue was unusually quiet. One guard was missing, and the others were nervous and didn't notice. Because they heard constant noises coming from the morgue.

Is there a ghost? A patrolling soldier thought so, and just as he wanted to turn around, he saw that the sharp sword had reached his neck.

There was another short, strange voice, which was about to vomit but did not vomit, and this time, because the soldier was already alert, so the exclamation came out of his throat, and only half shouted: "There is ......"

"Bang!" With a muffled sound, a black figure rolled up, and with a sudden thud, it turned into a streamer of light and fled to a corner of the guard wall.

"Catch the assassin!"

The noisy sound is not flustered.

Then I heard the voices of the guards coming from all sides.

"Peng" suddenly exploded, and in the darkness, a beam of sparks was raised, mixed with thick smoke, and suddenly surged, like fireworks in the sky, turning into a colorful rain of flowers, falling one after another.

"It's out of the water." I don't know who shouted first.

The morgue was on fire.

Chen Yuan had just come out of the prison, dumbfounded, and subconsciously hid in a bunch of grass.

"Catch the assassin!" The armor soldiers flocked in.

There were two black-clad men, fighting with the armor soldiers, and retreating to Chen Yuan's side.

Chen Yuanxin mentioned his throat and eyes.

"Senior sister, you go quickly, I'll hold them back." In a panic, Chen Yuan heard one of the black-clothed men, who did not retreat but advanced, killing another guard with a sword.

"Arrest you, and protect your corpses."

This irresistible voice came from a young man, and in front of him, more than 20 guards stood with swords, Li Shimian on the left, and Yang Shi on the right, majestic.

Isn't that a Changchun monk who calls himself Boss Zhu? Even Li Shimian can only stand up to him, who is he? Chen Yuan's heart stirred up turbulent waves.

"We're surrounded." The black shadow said in shock, took two steps back, and dodged the slashed knife, and said in a low voice, "Senior sister, I saw Senior Brother Tie just now, poor beyond recognition, dead and blind." He was poisoned, senior sister, one of us has defected, tell everyone to withdraw quickly. ”

The female assassin snapped, "It's you who want to retreat, and I'll cover it." ”

"No, my martial arts skills are not as good as yours, I can't escape, senior sister, you retreat quickly, there is still a glimmer of life, everyone's lives are handed over to you, I can't accompany you." The man smiled miserably and struggled into the group of guards, a few muffled snorts, and the life and death of several guards were unknown.

However, the guards had already surrounded the man, and the well-trained and highly skilled guards reacted extremely quickly, shouting in unison, and slashing at the man with horizontal swords.

The man was not afraid, but the woman exclaimed. From his angle, Chen Yuan actually saw the woman's eyes, which were the eyes that forced him in the night that day.

No wonder Fang just listened to her voice with some familiarity.

What the hell is this poisonous lady going to do? What is her relationship with the person Dong Mingquan killed? Chen Yuan couldn't think about it, the black shadow man had already been stabbed several times, and he was about to let out his last wail.

The poisonous lady screamed miserably and wanted to kill her.

"Help, help." Chen Yuan suddenly got up from the grass and fled in a hurry like a stream of urine on his buttocks.

The guards were startled, and many looked at Chen Yuan, who had broken his throat in the night.

Wu Yuehe woke up in shock, and took advantage of this gap to shake a sword, like a wisp of light smoke, and disappeared into the grass.

"Chase!" Zhu Zhanji decisively ordered. The guards pursued him.

Chen Yuan ran and ran, and he couldn't run away anymore, because more than a dozen guards surrounded Chen Yuan, and the bright big knife made him unable to open his eyes.

Chen Yuan was brought to Zhu Zhanji, and he didn't dare to show that he was not flustered. In fact, he didn't know why he ran out suddenly, so it was easy to be regarded as a fellow party of the poisonous lady, facing Zhu Zhanji, this is the future emperor, and he was so nervous that he was to death. Even if he is not killed now, with King Zhao's token in his arms, this is not the same team as Zhu Zhanji.

"His Royal Highness, the people have been brought."

Yang Shi shouted: "Bold thief, why did he appear here, he didn't recruit from the truth." ”

Zhu Zhanji waved his hand and motioned to them, the guards retreated, and Yang Shi also shut up in amusement, before he shouted: "Chen Yuan." ”

Chen Yuan bowed down: "Xiaomin doesn't know His Royal Highness Taisun, there have been many offences in the past, capital crimes, capital crimes. "I regret dying in my heart, and I cursed him for the first time I met him, and I had someone to hang up, and no one who offended could offend this future emperor. How did he know that his nonsense had been fulfilled. Otherwise, where would Zhu Zhanji spare him.

Zhu Zhanji smiled and said: "Those who don't know are not guilty, get up." ”

Chen Yuan dared to get up.

"I'm surprised that you're here."

"Xiao Min should be damned, Xiao Min originally came to see my second uncle, who would have thought that suddenly he saw a fire, Xiao Min hadn't seen much of the world, and he ...... in a panic"

Yang Shi intercepted: "Nonsense, if you don't suddenly ......"

Zhu Zhanji said unhappily: "Yang Tuiguan." ”

Yang Tuiguan didn't dare to interject anymore.

Zhu Zhanji said lightly: "Civilians can't come here. ”

Chen Yuan knew that he couldn't hide it, so he took out the token from his arms and said honestly: "Xiaomin's second uncle, uh, called Dong Mingqing, accidentally killed someone and was imprisoned, Xiaomin met a nobleman, he gave me this, and said that I could enter the prison to meet him." ”

Although Zhu Zhanji had already guessed it, he saw that the token's eyes flickered, looked at it, exhaled, and said slowly: "Do you know who this noble person is?" ”

"Xiaomin didn't know at first, he only knew that he was the leader of Jinyiwei, and later he knew that it was King Zhao." Chen Yuan had two dealings with Zhu Zhanji, and knew that he was extremely smart, and he had never shown stupidity in front of him, so he decided not to pretend to be stupid at this time.

Zhu Zhanji threw back the token: "Not bad, not bad, hehe." My third uncle has always been stingy, I asked him for it before, but he just didn't give it, but I didn't expect to give it to you. Let's go back early, my third uncle is probably waiting for you in a hurry. ”

"His Royal Highness Taisun, just let him go?"

Zhu Zhanji said: "The third uncle's people are all a family, and they are not fellow assassins, let him go, something so big, I have to go to see the emperor's grandfather." ”

"Thank you, Your Highness." Chen Yuan hurriedly shouted.

Zhu Zhanji looked at the morgue, the fire had been extinguished, and the armor soldier was cleaning up the mess just now, and said to Li Shimian: "Master Li, this place will be handed over to you, and the armor soldiers who died in battle tonight will be given double compensation." ”

"Command!"
