After hearing his subordinates' words, Lu Shuyun's face instantly darkened.

Two ninth-rank, one eighth-rank, and hundreds of third-rank or so warriors, even a waste prince can't be killed.

Not only did the assassination not succeed, but all of them were left behind, and none of them returned.

The more Lu Shuyun thought about it, the more angry he became, he slapped his palm on the table, and the dishes and pots on the table were instantly shattered.

"Rubbish, it's all rubbish!"

He couldn't figure out how this could fail.

They all inquired about how many people the king of the north went north this time, and the stronger ones were Chu Yuqin and Li Feng.

Except for the two of them, there weren't even a few five-grade ones in that team.

As a result, the Blood Moon Tower actually failed!

This can fail!

What the hell do the assassins of the Blood Moon Tower eat, and what are they for!

Two nine products, even if they have no way to take Chu Yuqin, they can let one of them drag Chu Yuqin, and then the other one will dispose of the waste prince.

But they just failed!

Now the Blood Moon Tower still has the face to ask them for compensation?

You can't even kill a waste prince, and you still want to compensate?

After waiting for the anger to be almost gone, Lu Shuyun calmed down a little, and he asked expressionlessly, "Have you found out why their operation failed this time?" ”

The man kneeling on the ground immediately replied, "Back to Your Highness, when the Blood Moon Tower sent someone to inquire about the situation, it was found that the bodies of some members of the Blood Moon Tower had been scorched. ”

When Lu Chen and the others left, they buried all the corpses of their own people, and the corpses of some of the assassins in the Blood Moon Tower were piled up and burned together.

Although some time was wasted, Chu Yuqin thought it was necessary, especially the two people who were killed by Lu Chen.

Martial artists can judge how this person died by the wounds on the dead person, in order to prevent the Blood Moon Tower from discovering their death, Chu Yuqin used this method of directly destroying the corpse.

Hearing the report of his subordinates, Lu Shuyun suddenly became even more angry, even if the mission failed, he didn't even know how their people died.

At this time, the subordinate next to Lu Shuyun said: "Your Highness, your subordinates suspect that there are grandmaster-level masters hidden in the Northern King's convoy. ”

Hearing the speculation of his subordinates, Lu Shuyun's brain was stunned, and then fell into silence, and the expression on his face kept changing.

After a while, a hateful look flashed in Lu Shuyun's eyes, "If that's the case, then this waste should disappear from this world." ”

The subordinates beside him said again: "Your Highness, rest assured, our people have already arrived in Beijun, even if he has the protection of a grandmaster-level master by his side, after a long time, they will be a little relaxed." ”

Lu Shuyun didn't say anything more, and now he could only wait slowly.

Fortunately, he kept his hand behind.

Lu Shuyun looked up at the window and said to himself: "My good brother, I hope you can always be so lucky!" ”

……

At the same time, people with status and status in the capital basically knew about the failure of the assassination of the Blood Moon Tower, and they didn't know who released the news.

Palace.

Imperial.

Emperor Xia looked at the news from the shadow guard and felt a little incredible.

At this time, there was a white-haired old man sitting in front of Emperor Xia, and the old man saw Emperor Xia looking at the note in his hand with a surprised expression, so he asked, "Your Majesty, what happened?" ”

Emperor Xia came back to his senses, and then tore up the note in his hand, "I didn't expect that there might be a grandmaster around Xiao Jiu, and the Chu family is really generous!" ”

Hearing this, the old man in front of Emperor Xia was stunned for a moment.

Emperor Xia continued: "National Teacher, do you think the Chu family really wants to support Xiao Jiu, or are they deliberately diverting their attention? ”

The old man in front of Emperor Xia is Situ Ce, the national pillar of the Great Xia Dynasty, and he is also the national teacher of the Great Xia Dynasty, and he often gives advice to the Xia Emperor.

Regarding Emperor Xia's question, Situ Ce pondered for a moment, and then replied: "The minister thinks that this is Chu Xiong's personal behavior, and it does not represent the will of the entire Chu family. ”

Xia Huang smiled and said, "Oh? Why does the national teacher think so? ”

Situ Ce replied: "Beijun is a bitter cold land, even if the king of Beijun arrives in Beijun, it will be difficult to develop Beijun, let alone recruit troops and horses to accumulate strength. ”

"The Chu family is not the Chu family of the Chu family, it is impossible for them to support a prince who has completely lost his qualifications to take the throne in this situation, but Chu Xiong is different, Chu Xiong is the grandfather of the Northern King, and there is still a blood relationship between them."

"Therefore, the minister thinks that Chu Xiong will send someone to protect him for the sake of the king of the north is his grandson, not because of the interests of the Chu family."

Hearing Situ Ce's words, Emperor Xia got up from the stone bench, laughed and said: "The words of the national teacher are somewhat interesting, the Chu family is not the Chu family of the Chu family, hahaha, this reminds me of myself, this Great Xia is also not my Great Xia!" ”

The Chu family is already tied to the forces in Jiangnan, so it is impossible for the Chu family to brainlessly support a prince who has no hope of seizing the heir, if they have to do this, it will conflict with those forces, and then the Chu family will fall apart.

Therefore, the Chu family is not the Chu family of the Chu family.

And Emperor Xia also thought of himself because of Situ Ce's words.

The Chu family can't do what they want to do, and the same is true for him, the emperor, what he wants to do, he will also be restrained by various forces, especially the major families, including the Chu family!

……

Mu's Mansion.

Seeing the flying pigeon in his hand, Mu Changtian's hand trembled a little.

This letter was sent back by Li Feng, and it was written that they had encountered an ambush by the assassins of the Blood Moon Tower.

When Mu Changtian saw the letter saying that the Blood Moon Tower had sent two ninth-rank martial artists and an eighth-rank martial artist, he thought that something had really happened to the Northern King.

As a result, at the end of the letter, Li Feng told him that a mysterious master had appeared and solved the two Nine Rank masters of the Blood Moon Tower.

This made Mu Changtian a little curious.

Mysterious master?

Who sent it to protect the King of the North?

Could it be that the mysterious master is from the palace?

Thinking of this, Mu Changtian's eyes looked in the direction of the palace, but he quickly denied this idea.

Emperor Xia didn't regard the Northern King as his child at all, and even thought that the Northern King was a stain on his life, how could he send someone to protect him.

……

Meanwhile.

Lu Chen: They have already continued to set off.

In the following month, Lu Chen was not assassinated.

This is mainly due to a certain rumor in the capital.

Now people think that there is a grandmaster by Lu Chen's side who is protecting Lu Chen, and with the grandmaster here, those forces will not be stupid to send someone to assassinate him.

Of course, people didn't think that the Grandmaster would always be by Lu Chen's side to protect him.

Grandmaster-level masters, there are not many in the entire Xia Kingdom, how can they always protect a waste prince.

In people's opinion, the most that grandmaster would do to protect the North King would leave when he arrived in the North County.
