Chapter 63: Lord Le
The moon is dark and the wind is high...... Well, but today's moon is really big, and it shines brightly, and those who don't know think it's snowing.
"Xiao Shaoxia, do we really want to break into the palace today and kill that dog prince?"
The man in black beside him looked up at today's moonlight and asked with some concern.
"Hmm. The dog prince killed my sister three years ago, and today I have to take revenge, just cut off the dog king's head on the day of my sister's death! ”
The man in black at the head was a tall young man, and he couldn't see his face clearly under the mask, but under the two sword eyebrows he showed was a pair of fierce and firm eyes.
The man known as Xiao Shaoxia pressed the hilt of the sword on his waist, gritted his teeth and said about the crime of the dog prince.
Thinking that his sister, who was holding the whole family in his hand as a treasure, suddenly died in the Lewang Mansion for some reason, he couldn't hold back the killing intent and anger in his heart.
"If I hadn't been trapped in Broken Wood Mountain, and later I was seriously injured and treated in Huitou Valley for a year, I would have come a long time ago."
"This ...... Okay, Xiao Shaoxia is arrogant, and it is natural to kill the dog prince who is rich and unkind. ”
Despite saying this, the man still subconsciously glanced behind him and looked at a black-robed guest hidden among the many heroes of the rivers and lakes, who nodded his hand down lightly in agreement.
"Everybody ......"
Xiao Shaoxia turned around and hugged his fists, and more than a dozen heroes in front of him returned the salute at the same time, most of them had received the favor of this Xiao Shaoxia, and in addition to the reputation of the Xiao family in Jinling, they all came to help with various thoughts.
"Everyone is a real man with hot blood, and for Xiao's private affairs, they are willing to break into Longtan and enter the tiger's den. For such a great favor, Xiao thanked him in advance. ”
Everyone nodded in appreciation.
Jianghu people, sometimes just to fight for fame, hoping that their reputation will be admired and sought after as heroes and heroes wherever they go.
Sometimes for the sake of a "name", many people in the rivers and lakes who they don't know each other can draw swords against each other, and even make life and death documents, so that one person dies.
"Xiao Shaoxia doesn't have to be polite, that dog prince has done a lot of evil, the people of Jiangcheng and even the entire Jiangzhou dare not speak out, and they always hope that someone can come to save them......"
This person is very good at talking, and he skillfully turned Xiao Shaoxia's desire to take revenge into being the master for the people of Jiangzhou, so that although what they do remains the same, they will get a lot more praise.
As soon as this person said this, many hot-blooded Jianghu people opened their eyes, and pulled out the blades they were bearing in their hands, and the bright snow-white blades reflected the bright moonlight in the sky.
"That's right, let's make decisions for the people of Jiangzhou!"
"Kill the dog! Kill the dog king! We want to rob the rich and help the poor......"
"Yes, yes, that's how a chivalrous man should be."
Everyone is talking about you and me, and what they said was surging and their blood was boiling, and they couldn't wait to rush into the palace of King Le, cut off the head of the dog prince and hang it on the city gate.
At that time, the people of Jiangcheng will not praise them a lot, and then we will get a congratulatory number to wear flowers, so that everyone in the rivers and lakes will know that there is a person like me.
"However, the assassination of the prince is a serious crime, even if we succeed, the court will definitely not let us go, and will definitely send a sea arrest document to arrest us, and even a heavy reward......"
Xiao Shaoxia poured a basin of cold water from the beginning.
Well, everyone bowed their heads and was speechless for a while.
Well, the man on the side who had been encouraging everyone was also silent, and he finally encouraged the pride in everyone's hearts and gave them the confidence to break into the palace. Now that it's good, Xiao Shaoxia's words extinguished the raging flames that had finally risen in everyone's hearts.
Some people glanced at each other, and their hearts were already budding to retreat. There is an old saying in the rivers and lakes, called a single person does not fight forces, which means that a person is alone after all, you are invincible with two fists and four hands, and it is absolutely impossible to retreat if you offend the forces.
The Jinling Xiao family is a well-known martial arts family in the rivers and lakes, and when it comes to prestige and strength, it is definitely the top part in the rivers and lakes, but ......
If you really want to talk about power, is there a greater force than the Great Qi Dynasty in the territory of the capital of the Great Qi Kingdom? And you're not saying that you killed someone casually, or offended the county magistrate or something.
Prince Le is a dignified prince, if he dies in his own hands. The Great Qi Dynasty was furious, and directly sent heavy troops to encircle and suppress it, not to mention these little miscellaneous fish who had no power, even the Jinling Xiao family or the "Foshan Xitong" of greater power could only kneel down obediently like a pug and wait for death.
Nonsense. No matter how powerful the masters of the rivers and lakes are, they can block ten with one and one by hundred, but the court can easily transfer hundreds of thousands of well-trained troops, and when the time comes, no matter what kind of master you are, you can only be trampled into a puddle of mud in the sea of swords.
"Hey, we're thinking too much. You said that even if you cut off the head of the dog prince, who knows that our brothers did it? It's that the court wants to investigate, how can they check without evidence, even if the Dog Emperor dares to send a large army to encircle and suppress the forces in the rivers and lakes, he can't wipe out all the forces, right? ”
After a long time of brainstorming, this person said something to calm everyone, and he saw that everyone's faces softened, and his heart was a lot more settled.
It's a pity that if something really happens to Prince Le, it is really possible for the Emperor of Great Qi to step on the rivers and lakes and smash those so-called forces in the rivers and lakes.
"Yes, yes, who knows that our brother did it?"
"That's it, the emperor can't always tell hexagrams, pinch his fingers, and then he knows that the person was killed by our brothers...... Oops, the murderer has you, you, and you. ”
A person said, and deliberately learned the old voice in the back, pretending to be an old blind man who told fortunes, and pointed around with trembling fingers.
"Hahahaha......"
For a while, everyone laughed.
Xiao Shaoxia looked up at the sky, calculated the hour in his heart, and felt that it was almost the middle of the night, so he said in a deep voice:
"Everyone, the time has come."
"Good!"
"Kill the dog!"
"Robbing the rich and helping the poor......"
After saying that, everyone crossed the street with their waists bent and came to the wall outside the palace of King Le, hidden in the black shadows.
"Let's go!"
After a while, the leading Xiao Shaoxia took a breath, and then the whole person climbed up the wall like a nimble civet cat, easily climbed over the wall, and then fell like a ball of cotton without a sound.
His eyes scanned the surroundings sharply, and there was no trace of anyone for the time being.
The place he landed in was a side courtyard of the palace, and it was still a long distance away from the main hall of the main mansion, and because of this, the defense of this place could be said to be the most lax, so Xiao Shaoxia chose this place.
"Tweet ......"
Xiao Shaoxia pinched his lips with his fingers and chirped like a sparrow, this was to tell his companions who were still outside the wall that this place was safe and they could come in.
Hearing the cry of the sparrow, the wall behind Xiao Shaoxia flipped into several people, each of whom was secretly holding their own blades, and their eyes were excited with a little greed.
"Let's go, be careful not to alarm the guards of the palace......"
Xiao Shaoxia took the lead and walked out, and those Jianghu knights lined up like fart worms to follow him.
He didn't notice that there were two missing people from the people who came in.
One is the one who always bewitches everyone, and the other is the black-robed man who never speaks.
"They went in, and they didn't know if it would work, but they were impassioned, but their brains were not very good......"
The person who had been talking for a long time squinted at the black-robed man, who was squatting in the corner very calmly, his ears were very good, and he couldn't hear the footsteps of Xiao Shaoxia and the others, so he slowly got up.
"My lord, can they become?"
The man didn't wait for the black-robed man to speak, and continued:
"I think it's eighty percent hanging, I don't know how much I've done this kind of thing over the years, and none of the so-called impassioned fools rushed into the Lewang Mansion alive. Now that I pinch my fingers and count, it's just that there are almost a thousand people in the rivers and lakes I sent in, and I don't know where the Lewang Mansion buried these dead people? ”
Babble, chatter.
This person is not annoyed, and he keeps talking endlessly, probably because he wants to show off in front of his leader.
The two of them made their way through the shadows of the night to a secret door.
After entering, the man went on to say:
"My lord, do you see if we have a message to the capital, this matter of sending Jianghu people to the Lewang Mansion has been done for several years, and it has no effect, so it is better to ......"
Boom.
A hand stretched out like lightning from under the black robe, clasped directly at the man's neck, and then when the latter didn't even shout to spare his life, he simply pressed his fingers.
Click.
The man's throat was crushed into pieces by the powerful finger force, the man's eyes bulged out suddenly, and a smear of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, and he didn't understand why he was killed until he died.
"Your words...... Too much. ”
The black-robed man waved his hand, and two people who were also wearing black night clothes came out of the corner, and without saying a word, dragged out the man who had collapsed to the ground like a dead dog.
……
Lewang's Mansion, in the middle of the night.
It stands to reason that at this time, Prince Le and the princess should have gone to bed a long time ago, but there was a little situation today, so they tossed until midnight.
Prince Le, who is less than thirty years old, only wears a plain robe with a golden silk embroidered flying dragon at home, and a white jade crown on his head. A white-sheathed sword hangs diagonally around his waist, and this sword is still from the hands of the Nangong family.
It's a pity that the Nangong family's incident happened too suddenly, and Prince Le entered Beijing again, not in Jiangcheng, otherwise the Sima family's grandiose dove would never be allowed to occupy the magpie's nest.
"Okay, obedient and obedient, drink the medicine."
Lord Le softened his eyes, personally picked up the medicine bowl and handed it to his mouth and blew it gently, feeling that the temperature of the medicine was appropriate, before he said softly.
can make the dignified prince speak so gently, there is only one person in the whole house.
Princess Le.
Princess Le was born in a famous family, and it can be said that she has been proficient in piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child, and her temperament is gentle and soft, but she has a bad problem, that is, she has been weak since she was a child.
Married into the palace for several years, Princess Le has been sick for a long time, and Prince Le has invited all the famous doctors in the world, and no one can completely cure Princess Le's illness, anyway, it can only be dragged by bad or bad.
Until three years ago, there was a white-bearded old man with no name and surname in the Le Wang's mansion, using his special prescription with a medicinal bath, and it took three months to cure Princess Le's stubborn disease, Le Wang Ye originally planned to reward the old man, but he didn't expect the latter to wave his hand, and then a tiger fell from the sky, and the old man rode the tiger away.
Later, it was rumored that it was the medicine prince who was able to subdue the tiger hundreds of years ago and treated the emperor at that time to cure the incurable disease of Princess Le.
Later, King Le also specially built a medicine king temple in a feng shui treasure in Jiangcheng, which enshrined the medicine king of the fairy wind and dao bones, and a huge tiger was lying at his feet.
"No...... Bitter. ”
Princess Le became more and more childlike, she pouted, she just didn't drink the decoction handed over by Prince Le, and her eyes were full of disgust when she looked at the black medicinal soup.
"The medicine is bitter, you see that you tossed it so far today, it scared me so much that I couldn't do it, I drank the medicine and went to sleep obediently."
No matter how powerful and domineering Lord Le is outside, in front of his daughter-in-law, he can only speak softly with a pleasant face.
"You're not blaming me......"
Princess Le rolled her eyes, and then stretched out her jade hand and slapped her slightly bulging lower abdomen, which almost scared Prince Le to the ground.
"If you bully me, I will beat your son!"
"Don't, don't...... Don't. ”
As the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard a commotion, then mixed with shouts and the sound of the wind firing from their crossbows.
Boom!
A figure with an arrow slammed open the door, and rushed towards the Le Wang Ye who was sitting in the courtyard with the cold wind that filled the courtyard, and the sharp sword was dazzling.
"Lord Dog, you give back my little sister's life!"
Xiao Shaoxia already had the belief that he would die, and he didn't care about the bow and crossbow behind him, and he wanted to cut off the head of the dog prince who killed his sister.
Syllable!
Lord Le felt that he was empty.
Princess Le had already taken the first step to snatch the potion in his hand, and then threw the bowl at the attacking black-clothed assassin with her backhand.
The decoction splashed the assassin's body, and the blue and white porcelain bowl hit the assassin's forehead, staggering the latter.
Don't look at the sword hanging on the waist of King Le, in fact, he doesn't know martial arts at all. Every time he went out, there were 3,000 guards to escort him, and secretly the old emperor also left him with the protection of the dead, so he didn't need to practice martial arts at all.
The assassin was distracted by the porcelain bowl, but he was only distracted for a moment.
Xiao Shaoxia can now be said to be the enemy's eyes are very red when they meet, the sword in his hand is buzzing, and he doesn't think about other tricks at all, but he stabs at King Le straight again.
Sa –
A sword roared, and the cold light sword on King Le's waist came out of its sheath.
It's just that the hilt of the sword is held in the hands of the pregnant Princess Le, and the sword carefully forged by the Nangong family is even less than the Qingxiao sword that is the first in Nangong, but it is a rare superlative.
The cold light flickered, and only a click was heard.
The Assassin's sword was broken in two, and the sharp half-tip fell to the ground with a thud, and the Assassin's heart fell to the bottom.
Then he saw Princess Le use the familiar trick to sheath her sword, and the latter shook her head with a wry smile, and there was a crisp sound between the steps on her head.
The woman took a step back and bent down to salute.
"Second brother."
