Volume IV, Chapter 1

This is a situation that is about to break out and make a decision of life and death, but it is inserted by a thin little girl.

Cohen chuckled in his heart and shouted badly, but the current shape made him dare not move, the assassin was too close to Qin Lun, and a single blow could kill Qin Lun...... Now, he could only hope that the assassin did not take this little girl seriously, and directly attacked her, in fact, Cohen was absolutely sure that the defeat would turn into victory.

If he was a qualified assassin, then it was unlikely that he would have killed anyone other than his target.

However, due to the appearance of Cinnen, Cohen has been distracted, and the momentum of the previous gathering has gradually decreased, and the possibility of catching the Assassin's blow is now very slim.

While Cohen was worried, the Assassin remained in a half-crouching position and did not move, still covering Cohen with his eyes, cold and flickering. There was silence in the huge space, and the red powder that fell was evenly spread on the bluestone floor in the middle of the room, a thin layer.

Compared with before, Qin Lun's recent changes can not be said to be small, although the court dress she wears has some wrinkles, but the fitting clothes still set off her well-behaved and lovely, and her thin face in the past has also plumped a lot, becoming red and fluttering, the only thing that has not changed is the big eyes full of energy.

Now, these pure eyes were staring at the Assassin, twinkling and full of doubt.

The assassin didn't move, Cohen didn't move, but Princess Cynon took a small step forward.

Cohen was so nervous that his heart was almost jumping out of his chest, but at this time he couldn't stop Jeanne, he knew that he was now revealing even the slightest flaw. will provoke a thunderous attack from the Assassins.

Xiao Qinlun took another step forward. The doubts in his eyes intensified. Her gesture seemed to catch the Assassin's attention, and the Assassin withdrew some of his gaze to Qin Lun...... A cold sweat broke out in Cohen's palm as he held the dagger.

"Ah......h

But even more puzzling is that the assassin did not react to Princess Cinn's actions, but Cohen understood. The Assassin's gaze never took off his mind, and although his gaze narrowed a little after Zenron appeared in the middle of the field, the occasional bits and pieces of light flickered even more sharply.

Little Qinlun had already circled the Assassin and returned to where he had been.

"Ahh She leaned sideways towards the Assassin, one hand on her hip and the other out, pointing at the Assassin and then at herselfβ€”Cohen hadn't understood yet. Princess Qinlun had already swung her arms exaggeratedly, screaming "ahhhhhh

Cohen's surprise was not small. In the panic, he only let his body crouch forward slightly, ready to attack, and use his momentum to contain the assassin, so that he did not dare to take action. But the cheering Princess Chinlen had already rushed to the Assassin and jumped upβ€”she wanted to climb on the Assassin's shoulder!

Cohen gritted his teeth and rushed out, the dagger in his hand already raised, and a cold and pressing glow lit up.

And what surprised him even more was that although the assassin's eyes stayed on him, he stretched out his left hand to support the soles of little Qinlun's feet, and sent Princess Qinlun to his shoulder!

Princess Qinlun, who climbed on the shoulder of the assassin, let out a "giggle" laugh, and the smile on her face made Cohen's body freeze - since entering the palace, except for Cohen, Princess Qinlun has not climbed on anyone's shoulder, and there are not many people who know her action, and there are only two people who know how to cooperate with her!

If he hadn't been wearing a helmet at the moment, Cohen's idiotic expression would have been seen by the Assassins.

Smiling little Qinlun began to grab the Assassin's face cloth, and in a few clicks, she grabbed the bloodstained face towel, and her long golden hair slid from the top of the Assassin's head to the side of his face...... Seeing the assassin's face, Cohen's heart felt as if he had been hit by a sledgehammer, and he took several steps back, and even the dagger in his hand was almost unsteady.

The Assassin is a Crow!

It would be nice to be an assassin for anyone, but why a crow? Cohen stood dumbfounded, watching Xiao Qinlun wipe the blood from the corner of the crow's mouth with a handkerchief, all kinds of tastes churned in his heart, and this unparalleled ruffian couldn't find words for a while.

"There is another person next to this girl. The crow slowly stood up, looked at Cohen in armor, and said in an emotionless voice: "Hand him over, and spare you from death today." ”

Hearing the crow's words, Cohen suddenly cried and laughed.

It was a big surprise for this to come out of the mouth of an assassin, let alone a killer like a crow. Cohen is his assassination target, in order to kill Cohen, he has already paid a huge price, and he is about to succeed, but the crow is willing to give up this qiΔ“ at this moment for the sake of a "white cloud" who meets in the water...... If you miss this opportunity to act again, you will probably have to pay with your life.

"Do you think you have the ability?" Cohen changed his voice, and the situation took a turn for the worse, causing his bad temperament to start to attack again: "This place has been besieged so much, no matter how great your ability is, you can't get out of it with your whole body, let alone take two people with you?"

"I'll do it for you. The crow still had that calm look, and there were still no superfluous words in his words: "Make a decision." ”

"I'll give it to you?" is possible, but there are a few technical problems. Cohen snickered in his heart: "Your Excellency, why don't you listen to my conditions?"

The raven was silent, without saying anything.

"I think! Cohen threw the dagger in his hand and plunged it into the ground at his feet, and when the crow was secretly surprised by his movements, Cohen had already taken off his helmet: "Why don't you sit down and talk! I'll treat you to a snack...... My friend, what do you think of my idea?"

The crow's eyes froze, and he took a step back slightly, although Cohen had black hair and black eyes, his appearance and demeanor were exactly the same as the white clouds he was familiar with.

"Are you going to kill me now?" Cohen smiled, changing the color of his hair and eyes, "I said you were a violent person earlier, and you still don't believe ......"

I was sure that the Sbiya Emperor in front of him was the White Cloud Queen I knew. The crow's face changed. The injuries that had been forcibly suppressed could no longer be suppressed at this moment. A wisp of blood loomed at the corner of his mouth, and the whole person shook a few times, and finally fell down in Xiao Qinlun's scream......

"Hey, heyβ€”don't scare me!" Cohen rushed up in a few steps, took Princess Qinlun with one hand, and held the crow with the other, although full of concern, his mouth was still quipping: "It's said that this profession is not suitable for you...... Men are afraid of entering the wrong industry!"

The murderous crow looked at this shameless man and wanted to punch him away. Helplessly, his body was scarred, and he had no way to tease Bai Yun.

The light curtain that shrouded the surface of the building flickered a few times, and then slowly disappeared, and the guards and elven elders who were gathered outside broke through the door and poured in, and the originally empty hall was immediately overcrowded, and the personal guards had arrived, and the rock also carried a very exaggerated battle axe to the front......

But seeing such a scene in the hall, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Look! what's there to see? It's okay to get out!" Cohen held the crow in his hand and looked at the rocks, "Casualties?"

"Yes, sir. "The rock has long seen Cohen's strange behavior. At this time, he replied with a straight face: "The envoy of the Gallo Empire is dead, and the guards have been injured a lot. ”

The gate was completely torn down. More people poured in.

"Husband. Fei Lin, who was surrounded by personal guards, saw that Cohen was really fine, and the panic on her face disappeared a little: "The envoy of the Gallo Empire is dead, we have to give an explanation." In addition, the assassination of the king is not trivial, and on the eve of his accession to the throne, it is necessary to immediately issue an announcement to prevent people from creating rumors. ”

"Order the magician, hurry up and heal the wounded. The Gallo Empire's emissaries colluded with the Assassins to take his body and feed it to the dogs. Cohen thought for a while: "Send another order, search for the people of the Gallo Empire in the Holy Capital, see one by one, arrest one by one, interrogate me one by one, and make things bigger." ”

"So, the assassin's business......" Filyn glanced at the crow suspiciously, "what are we going to say?"

"As for the assassins...... Cohen handed Princess Cinnen to Winsley, who stepped forward, and also looked down at the crow with a bloody face, "The assassin failed to assassinate, and has been chopped into meat sauce and broken bones and ashes!"

"Yes, sir!" the rock turned and walked out.

"Winsley, has your mother arrived?" Cohen felt the crow's pulse, feeling very faint.

"It's time to arrive, rest at the inn. Although she knew that the crisis had passed, Winsley was still flustered. I don't know who this person Cohen is holding on, so I don't have the heart to ask.

"Invite her into the palace immediately. Cohen picked up the crow and walked straight to the door: "Come to my room, everyone, clean up this room." ”

Cohen knew that the crow's body was still holding up, but what about the crow! No matter how Cohen dangled himself on his shoulder, he didn't say a word, maybe he felt that these things in front of him were too bizarre to accept! But in any case, this assassination attempt was a complete failure.

Once in the room, Cohen put the crow on the bed, and the two royal magicians immediately stepped forward to clean the crow's wounds. Although Raven was not used to having people mess around with his body, he could not resist the invincible gazes of Cohen and Quelen...... I had to go along with it.

The blood stains on the crow's face were washed away, and several internal affairs overseers were shocked in their hearts, the crow's appearance was very similar to Fischet's, especially his demeanor...... The four princesses all looked at Cohen with puzzled eyes, but Cohen did not answer.

The magician was tending to the crow's superficial wounds, and Cohen was discussing with the princesses about the events caused by the assassination, ignoring the suspicious eyes of the princesses, explaining the matter clearly, and then motioning for the wives to leave for a while.

"Please let me know when Mother is coming. Cohen admonished Winsley, smiling to dispel the wives' concerns.

After sending everyone away and closing the door, Cohen turned around and let out a big breath: "Whew...... I'm afraid. ”

"What are you afraid of?" Speaking of being clever, the crow lying on the bed was Cohen's opponent, and he opened his eyes when he heard this: "Seeing that you were quite orderly and strategized when you escaped, how can you be afraid?"

"I'm afraid, okay?" Cohen dragged a chair and sat down, and then picked up Qin Lun, "Have you thought about it, you, me, Qin Lun baby, hang any of them...... What the is this!"

The crow looked at the ceiling silently, but did not answer.

"Is there anything you want to sue me now?" Cohen said lightly, "It's over now." There's nothing to hide, is there?"

The crow closed its eyes again. The expression on his face is extremely complicated. The clenched fist at his side trembled slightly.

"Since we're friends, we should trust each other!" Cohen sighed, "If I knew this, I shouldn't have let you leave that day." ”

"How can you not leave?" a bitter smile appeared at the corner of the crow's mouth: "No one can resist fate." ”

"Bullshit fate!What a big deal?Why can't you resist?" Cohen snorted coldly: "Fate asked you to kill me, but you didn't kill me, didn't you resist?"

"Yes, I resisted, but it didn't seem to end well. The crow turned his head slightly: "Is anyone under your command dead?"

"No, but it hurts a lot. Cohen shook his head: "You're very measured. ”

"That's not measured. That's utilitarian. The crow smiled bitterly again: "They are not my target, and it is not worth spending effort on them...... I'm a mean killer. ”

"Why do you have to be self-indulgent, don't look down on yourself so much?" Cohen came closer: "It's okay, anyway, I didn't kill my own people, and I saved a lot of trouble." ”

"Trouble?" the crow looked at Cohen, "what do you mean?"

"Although you are a little injured, your head is still clear, do you think I will let you go in this situation?" Cohen smiled slightly: "I have already learned a lesson, I will not make a second mistake, at this time, domineering and power are my most powerful weapons." ”

"Didn't I get chopped into meat sauce and crushed bones and ashes?" the crow replied indifferently, "Then now, I have no place to go for the time being." ”

"Don't look so lifeless. Do you feel uncomfortable with us? You don't think of me as an emperor, in fact this emperor is used to bluff people. I'm still the same white cloud. Cohen's words paused for a moment: "Even if I promise to let you go, Baby Qinlun won't agree." ”

Qin Lun screamed and threw himself on the side of the bed, clutching the crow's hand tightly.

"I'm a killer ......"

"Bullshit, I'm still a hooligan, but so what? I still don't deserve to be emperor?" Cohen snorted dissatisfiedly, "Is it possible, do you have a family or a handle in the hands of the other party?"

"I don't have a handle, and I don't have a family. A strange look flashed in the crow's eyes, and he shook his head and said, "I am an orphan." ”

"Since you're an adult, it doesn't matter if you're an orphan or not. Cohen smiled: "Listen to me my friend, I don't want you to think I'm pressing you, but you have to sue me, who told you to kill me?"

"What? do you have many enemies?" asked the crow.

"There are as many stars in the sky as they can be counted. ”

"It seems that your environment is not much better than mine. The crow looked at Cohen's ostentatious expression, and said angrily, "But you don't feel tired of this kind of life?"

"Who called me such an arrogant person? Cohen clapped his hands and laughed: "It's because of another guy that there is so much hatred." ”

The crow finally showed a slight sign of a smile, and just as he was about to speak, a sound of footsteps outside the door made him shut his mouth again. It should be Winsley's mother who has arrived, and at this time, no one else will come to disturb the emperor.

"If you don't want to say anything now, I can wait. Cohen lowered his voice, "If you want to say it now, I can make the people outside the door wait." ”

"I'll think about it, I'll talk about it next time!"

"No problem, it's fine if you say it whenever you want, but I hope you don't do anything stupid anymore...... I'm going to be on the throne tomorrow and I'm probably going to be very busy. Cohen stood up: "If you are better, I want you to stay with me tomorrow, there is a friend who is very important to me can no longer attend my enthronement ceremony, and I don't want you to be absent again." ”

"Let's talk about it!"

"Good. Cohen nodded, "Chinlun, help me watch him." ”

Qin Lun nodded solemnly, his little hand squeezed tighter, and he looked very serious.

Cohen opened the door and said nothing, first bowing to Winsley's mother, the elven patriarch.

"I'm already the emperor, so I should salute you. The elf smiled gently, and looked at the changes in Cohen's body with pure eyes, "Child, you have become more powerful. ”

Cohen patted his heart and replied bitterly: "The power is stronger, but the burden here is also heavier." ”

"You're fine. His Excellency looked inside the door: "Is there anyone else injured?"

"Yes, the two people in it are a little inappropriate, and I beg my mother to bother more. Cohen looked back at Raven and Princess Cinn, "I still have to go to Daddy and explain this...... There are also a few imperial concubines...... This is big trouble. ”

"Go ahead, leave it to me here. The elf replied, and as Cohen walked out of the room, he turned to him again, "Cohen, do you know what is the most important thing for the Emperor?"

"What is it?" Cohen looked confused.

"Peace, peace of mind in oneself. When you feel too tired, find a quiet space to calm down. ”

"Yes, I'll give it a try. ”

Cohen scratched his head, but walked away with a confused expression.

"Peace, peace of mind in oneself. When you feel too tired, find a quiet space to calm down. ”

"Yes, I'll give it a try. ”

Cohen scratched his head, but walked away with a confused expression. (To be continued......)
