Chapter 20: Kill a prince first and deter it
It's getting late.
The entire palace of the Wei Kingdom was shrouded in darkness.
At this time, the middle palace is played.
The gauze round lamp shines brightly.
Translucent heat rises from the top of the lampshade.
Dai Gongzheng, the right guard general in front of the palace, and Miao Muwang, the general of Suzhi, these two well-known martial artists gathered together.
The two sat across from each other around a table, with a plate of peanuts and a bottle of rice wine in the middle.
Rice wine has a low alcohol content, and it is a drink for Takeo, and if you drink too much, you won't miss the right thing.
It is not considered a violation of the prohibition of alcohol in the palace.
"There have been a lot of things in and out of the palace recently, and the gang of dogs in the Imperial City Division have been so busy vomiting blood lately." Dai Gongzheng picked up a grain of yellow raw rice with chopsticks and said casually.
Miao Muwang followed: "Not only them, but we are also tired like dogs during this time." I heard that someone in the palace has been assassinated recently? ”
Dai Gongzheng glanced up and said meaningfully, "Where did you hear the news?" ”
"Hey, I was talking nonsense. Drink alcohol. Miao Muwang poured a new glass of rice wine for the government on behalf of the government.
Dai Gongzheng said: "Lao Miao, on the cusp of the storm recently, we are doing things at the feet of the Son of Heaven again, we can eat indiscriminately, and we can't talk indiscriminately." ”
"What Brother Dai taught me is that I must remember to drink in the future."
"Today, the guards on the prince's side have been arranged, right?"
"Don't worry, this one has been done, and they are all transferred according to His Majesty's requirements."
Dai Gongzheng said seriously: "The prince should send thirty-two more guards, the princes will send eight more, and the emperor and concubine will each increase five. ”
"You still don't worry about my work, something has gone wrong in so many years. Now that things are arranged, we might as well talk more about the ups and downs and less about business. ”
"Haha, you've always been well versed in this, I'm not as good as you." After drinking a few glasses of wine, Dai Gongzheng suddenly said: "Hey, it's strange, why is today's wine so strong, my head is dizzy." ”
"Brother Dai drank too much, right?"
"Hey, no, there's something wrong with this wine."
Dai Gongzheng just wanted to sit up, but he was dizzy and fell to the ground with a bang.
"Big brother, big brother!"
Dai Gongzheng fell asleep on the ground and did not respond.
Miao Muwang restrained the concern on his face, and became indifferent: "Big brother, big brother, I'm sorry." Time is tight, the task is heavy, and I can't help it. ”
At the same time.
In a dark corner outside the palace, Zhao Hongming squatted inside.
After he broke through the Enlightenment Realm, his five senses became more acute, and even if he was separated by a wall, he could hear the content of the speech clearly.
Now he was completely sure that there was something wrong with the guards on his side.
There are forces that are targeting him.
But what is the picture?
The expression on Zhao Hongming's face became serious, and he recalled what he had done these days little by little.
His life is all about three points and one line, and he doesn't do anything extra.
And he is also very careful about his cultivation, and no second person will know.
In general, no one thinks he is too good and kills him.
Zhao Hongming was puzzled.
At the end of the day, there is still too little information.
He leaned close to the window and looked into the room.
At this time, Miao Muwang in the house picked up the knife and walked to Dai Gongzheng's side and clamped the knife around his neck.
Poof!
Miao Muwang waved his long knife, the silver light flashed, and the head of the acting public government fell to the ground.
Blood splattered and scattered all over the ground.
The dignified Martial Arts Realm was so easily killed.
Zhao Hongming, who was outside, saw this scene and was stunned.
What's going on.
Under Zhao Hongming's gaze, Miao Muwang kept rubbing his face after killing people.
His face was like a dough, constantly changing shapes, and finally became exactly the same face as Daikomasa.
"The time is almost up, you can kill a prince first to deter the beams, so that they can move as soon as possible."
When Zhao Hongming saw this scene, he only felt goosebumps all over his body.
At this moment, he finally connected some useful information.
The person in front of him was undoubtedly not the real Miao Muwang, but an assassin.
He has been lurking in the palace of the Great Liang, waiting for his moment.
Among the many princes, he chose the relatively weak himself.
So I arranged a small number of guards for myself, just to get started.
Think about it, other princes and princesses all have the power of their mothers, and they are more or less protected by some masters.
He was the only one who was weak.
Fortunately, he came today, otherwise, with the methods of these assassins, he might not be able to prevent it if he was not clear.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongming's back couldn't help but ooze a layer of cold sweat.
What's next?
He's coming out.
In fact, as Zhao Hongming roughly speculated.
As a Korean assassin, Miao Muwang is tasked with killing a prince.
And Zhao Hongming, the unfavored fifth prince in the palace, is his target.
The rest of the princes were heavily guarded, and he did not dare to move.
After all, no one knows what kind of high-level martial artist will be hiding around them.
But the Five Princes are different.
His mother was a princess of Weiguo, and she married into Wei purely for marriage.
The small country of the Guardian Kingdom was destroyed, and the political marriage of his mother lost its value, and he died of illness when he was four years old.
In such a situation, the five princes naturally did not get the favor of Emperor Jian'an.
There won't be much attention on him either.
This means that he has a higher chance of success.
As an Assassin, intelligence gathering is their basic skill.
During the period of using Miao Muwang's identity, he had already investigated the details of the defense within the Five Princes.
A personal guard with five grades, and a personal eunuch with three grades.
The rest are trash fish.
Even the two guards he sent over were parallel goods.
Now according to the regulations, the personal guards are not allowed to stay in the palace overnight, and now they have left the palace.
In other words, he only needs to deal with those miscellaneous fish and parallel goods.
His dignified cultivation of the three grades is very easy to do.
Tonight is determined to win.
Immediately, he was full of confidence and pushed the door out.
"Heaven and earth are slashed!"
At the moment when he went out, a sharp knife intent appeared from behind him.
The knife appeared too suddenly, and the angle was tricky, and it was impossible to defend against it.
He didn't even know when a person appeared behind him.
Poof!
The silver light of heaven and earth flashed, with unrivaled might, and the 'Miao Mu Wang' knife went down from the top of the head and split it in half.
Two halves fell to the ground, covered in blood.
Half of each of them had a face full of incredulity.
After killing someone, Zhao Hongming's face was a little unusually calm.
At the moment of the knife, he thought clearly.
In this world, whoever wants him to die, he will kill him first!
