356 Assassins

The first thing Fusheng did after buying a mansion was to find a cook.

Find a cook who can make the chicken noodle soup that I remember.

The emperor lived up to his wishes, and he found it.

It's not as good as it, but it's not much different.

The steward has become accustomed to it, and every time a guest stays in the house, the next day's breakfast is a bowl of chicken noodle soup.

He nodded, "Don't worry, sir, everything has been arranged, and the guests will be able to eat when they wake up." ”

"That's good, when he has breakfast, don't forget to arrange a sedan chair to send people back." ”

The stewards responded one after another.

At this time, the sky was gray, the crescent moon hung in mid-air, and one or two stars twinkled.

The carriage slowly moved in the direction of the palace.

In the guest room of the house, the faint candlelight flickered, and the man who was being remembered was lying on the couch with one hand on his left face, and in front of him, a man in black was kneeling.

The man in black lowered his head and said in a very small voice, "Master, everything has been done according to your orders." ”

The man on the couch let out a soft "um", "Stand down." ”

"Whoa." The man in black got up, quietly opened the window, and left.

The man sat up slowly, his drooping eyelids trembling slightly, covering the indifference in his eyes.

At that time, the Gu Mansion was brightly lit.

Su Mo, who was protected by Jin Zhu, listened to the sound of fighting outside, his brows were tightly locked, and the bracelet on his wrist had turned into a dagger, and he held it tightly in his hand through the cover of his sleeves.

Jin Zhu didn't know that Su Mo was armed with martial arts, her face was pale, and her body trembled uncontrollably, but she still pretended to be calm and clenched the broom in her hand.

She said: "Madame, don't be afraid, even if you die, the slave and maid will protect Madame well." ”

Su Mo is really not afraid, not to say that he has confidence in his martial arts, but in Gu Fu.

She could see that most of the subordinates of the Gu Mansion had practiced martial arts, and there were still many people with strong martial arts in Duofuxuan guarding them.

However, she was still worried that Gu Xingnian's child didn't know if he woke up or not, and whether he would be scared.

But fortunately, soon the movement outside weakened, and the door that was locked from the inside by Jin Zhu was knocked, and the voice of Steward Gu came in.

"Are you alright, ma'am?"

Jin Zhu's tense heart finally relaxed, and the whole person directly became a soft-footed shrimp, the broom also fell to the ground, and his eyes were even more puffy.

I scared her to death, I finally lived such a comfortable life, but fortunately, there was no accident!

Su Mo's psychological quality is naturally stronger than Jin Zhu, she glanced at Jin Zhu, knew that she was frightened, didn't say anything, turned the dagger back into a bracelet and brought it, bypassed Jin Zhu, and walked to the door.

With a creak, the door opened from the inside.

The smell of blood rushed to the face, and in the courtyard, there were several corpses lying down, and some who had been captured alive were being tied up and dragged outside the courtyard by Wuhuada.

Su Mo turned a blind eye to this, "Uncle Gu, is the year of Xing okay?" ”

Steward Gu was a little surprised by Su Mo's calmness, but it was only fleeting, and he said: "Madame, don't worry, the eldest lady is protected by jade, everything is fine, and she is still asleep......"

Those who came to assassinate had infiltrated from a location close to the backyard.

As soon as he arrived at Duofuxuan, he was discovered by the guards guarding in the shadows.

Gu Xingnian's side, tonight it is the turn of the Jade Vigil.

She listened to the movement outside, but she didn't expect the assassin to come, and opened the door to take a look.

It's okay not to look at it, but when I do, I just happened to bump into the guard smearing the assassin's neck with a sword, and blood sprayed out.

Jade was so frightened that she collapsed to the ground, but soon, a strong desire to survive made her stand up.

She shuddered and closed the door, bolted it, and then went to pick up the sleeping little girl, and hid in the cupboard, not forgetting to cover the little girl's ears.

The whole process is done in one go.

Jade hiding in the cabinet hugged Gu Xingnian tightly, her ears were empty, and she couldn't hear anything except her own rapid heartbeat.

When those assassins were subdued, Steward Gu went to Gu Xingnian's door, knocked on the door for a long time and did not respond, and countless bad thoughts suddenly popped up in his mind.

He just let people break in.

The windows were closed and there was no one on the bed.

Looking around, there was no one.

Steward Gu was rarely panicked, and rummaged through the house, not letting go of any place where people could be hidden.

In the end, he found Gu Xingnian who was still asleep in the cabinet who was held by Jade.

And the moment the cabinet door was opened, the whole person seemed to come back to his senses, his heart jumped directly to his throat, and his face turned pale.

She subconsciously blocked Gu Xingnian with her body, and looked at the person with those guarded eyes.

After finding out that it was Gu Guan, her tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and she opened her mouth, wanting to say that Gu Xingnian was fine, but before she could speak, her eyes turned black and she fainted.

Steward Gu told Su Mo all this.

Finally, he said: "The old slave has asked people to invite the doctor, is there anything uncomfortable with the lady?" ”

"I'm fine." Su Mo shook her head, she was physically and mentally fine, "It's the jade side, she has a meritorious role in protecting the master, let the doctor take a closer look, and the golden beads are also scared, and let the doctor take a look at it when the time comes......"

Su Mo said, and at the same time did not forget to ask the guards.

"If there is an injury, be sure to let the doctor be well treated, and then go to the account room to pay some money, they have a meritorious service to protect the master, and they should be rewarded."

Gu Steward responded one by one, "Madame, don't worry, the old slaves all know." ”

After arranging these, Su Mo asked about the assassin again.

The assassin went straight to Duofuxuan in the backyard, obviously coming for her.

Su Mo thought carefully in his heart, and the incident of encountering assassins when he went to Beijing came to his mind again.

Su Mo guessed that the assassination was related to Fang Shi, after all, the fourth prince was eyeing the Su family's industry, and Fang Shi was under his command, but he concealed the news that he had found her, so he naturally did not want her to return to Beijing.

But after thinking about it, those people in black were vicious, looking like the rumored dead soldiers, it was not that she despised Fang Shi, this is not an easy task to cultivate dead soldiers...

So Su Mo guessed whether it would be related to the four princes behind Fang Shi.

Especially when they were assassinated and a few Praetorian Guards were damaged, looking at Liu Siqian's attitude, it was obvious that they wanted to find out, but then they couldn't do it.

It is absolutely impossible to say that there is no cattiness.

After staying in the Gu Mansion, Su Mo learned that the four princes had failed to force the palace to rebel and had been beheaded by Wumen.

This made Su Mo confirm his original guess.

The reason why it didn't happen in the first place is probably because the mastermind behind the scenes is dead.

But if this is the case, who is the mastermind of this assassination?

Su Mo could only hear the news, and he didn't know that Fang Shi had retreated from the rebellion of the four princes forcing the palace to rebel, and he was not stained with half a cent of dust.

She also thought that Fang Shi would either participate in it and end up in a different place, or be implicated and be demoted again......

So at this moment, she didn't think about Fang Shi in a daze.

Naturally, Steward Gu would not hide anything from Su Mo, and he truthfully stated his plans.

"The old slave has already sent someone to the Black Armor Guard to ask someone to come and take the assassin away, and the government has also sent someone to it..."
