Chen Mingye stood up with his sword, leaning on the sudden increase in spiritual power from the Red Spirit Pill, and rushed straight towards the strong man. And the strong man's face turned pale for a while, and in a hurry, his body retreated.

For a time, the offensive and defensive momentum was flipped in an instant.

The strong man walked the road with a lot of skill, and compared with Chen Mingye, the speed was not at all the slightest advantage.

Seeing that he was about to be caught up, the strong man's face turned fierce, surging all the qi and blood in his chest, and he actually turned around and crashed into Chen Mingye.

Chen Mingye had expected that the strong man would sacrifice his life to fight back, and he had no need to fight hard at all. The sword dance was clear, but the body was a light twist, and the strong man's menacing impact was easily dodged.

In the final analysis, a strong man who has lost his fists and relies on his body to hit, is no different from a tiger who has lost his claws.

After the strong man of the boxing master was cut off his hands, it was naturally impossible for him to be Chen Mingye's opponent, but at this moment, Chen Mingye had no intention of leaving his hand in order to ask questions, and turned over and dodged and handed out an extremely crisp sword, which pierced the throat of the strong man in an instant, completely killing him.

Killed with a sword, confirming that the threat was completely eliminated, Chen Mingye let out a long breath and breathed a sigh of relief.

From Chen Mingye turning over to the roof, to finally stabbing his sword into the throat of the strong man, his central calculation and the degree of fighting can be described as fierce, and then the time before and after is only half a pillar of incense.

Chen Mingye is fighting so quickly, and there is only one factor he is always pursuing - time.

Once the battle on this side began, it meant that the assassins on Meng Che's side must have also moved. So he simply didn't have the slightest time to waste, even if he won miserably, he had to do so.

Chen Mingye cheered up and frantically used the spiritual power in his body, and the red spirit pill in his mouth had been refined by him for most of this time, and the original serious injury in his chest had also been much better, at least it would no longer affect his basic movements. It's just that if the range of movement is a little larger, there will still be a sharp pain like tearing.

He took a long breath, his aura quietly dissipated, making sure that there were no more anomalous figures lurking nearby, and then he sped out in the direction of the west.

The night wind whistled by his side, and at his speed, he was rushing from the eastern part of the inn to the western wing of the inn almost in the blink of an eye. But on the roof here, there is not half a human figure.

Chen Mingye's brows furrowed, and he was just about to release his aura to perceive downward, but in the next moment, his figure retreated.

At the moment of retreat, a sword light suddenly appeared, slashing past the place where he had been standing before.

Chen Mingye stepped back and stood firmly, staring intently at the black-clothed man in front of him who was gradually revealing his figure.

The moonlight was like a glow, but the man's face was completely shrouded in a black veil, and he couldn't see clearly.

Chen Mingye was worried that there were also two people here, but he was afraid that one of them had already gone down to assassinate him, but this person was specially left here to ambush. At the moment, he didn't dare to slack off, holding the Wu Swallowing Sword in his hand, and the aura in the dantian was surging, just hoping that he could barely resist the menacing attack of the opposite person after rushing to attack.

After the man in black slashed out the long-lying ambush, he looked at him fixedly, not ready to make a move.

Chen Mingye was slightly stunned, and in a flash of thought, he took advantage of this rare time to start quickly recovering his spiritual power.

The two looked at each other silently, and it looked very strange in the night.

Although Chen Mingye was anxious in his heart, his own aura was limited, and it was difficult to fight quickly for a while, so he only hoped that he could defeat the opposite person as soon as possible after the breath in his chest was stable.

However, this situation did not last long, because in addition to the two of them, a third person suddenly appeared.

The third person appeared in an extremely hurry, and he turned over from under the eaves, but after coming up, he ignored Chen Mingye, who was standing cautiously with a sword, and only yelled at the man in black who was still confronting Chen Mingye: "Don't be in a daze, let's go!"

"Done?" responded in a faint, neutral voice.

"It's a fart, the idea is too prickly, Lao Tzu almost lost it below, and the wind was tight. A scolding, and then he turned around and ran without hesitation.

"It seems that the Meng family has been on guard for a long time, and I don't know who revealed the news. With a light sigh, the man in black glanced at Chen Mingye, who was standing silently, turned around and left.

Chen Mingye's eyes narrowed, but he didn't move, watching the two drift away and dissipate into the night.

The spiritual power spread out and leaned into the building, and there were still bursts of commotion downstairs, but there was no screaming anymore. Chen Mingye breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that it is not a plan to lure the enemy in, and it should be really okay below.

The man in black seemed to have met a master in his words, who would make the move? Xiaohong? Chen Mingye had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he didn't think much about it in his heart, he just tidied up his clothes slightly, and then quietly entered the building along the eaves again.

The second floor of the inn was in turmoil at this time.

The guards who were originally lurking in the shadows had already appeared around Meng Che's room at this time, and there were no less than seven or eight corpses along the way towards Meng Che's room.

As soon as Chen Mingye approached, he was stopped by the leader of the guards, the man was holding a long knife, looked at Chen Mingye with a cautious face and said: "Chen Gongzi, tonight is a special period, and I hope that Gongzi will return to the room as soon as possible and do not move around at will, so as not to cause accidents." ”

Chen Mingye smiled, this seems to be a persuasion, it seems that these guards are now frightened birds, and they dare not let anyone approach.

Okay, he nodded, turned around and left, wanting to guard like this, Meng Che's kid should be fine.

The guards kept watching his figure go away, and then they let down their vigilant gaze.

In the perception, Xiaohong still stayed in the room obediently, and a person seemed to be humming something, Chen Mingye was relieved, so he didn't go back to the room directly, but walked outside Meng's room again.

Because there has been no movement here, even though there has been an assassination on Meng Che's side, the guards here still don't dare to relax in the slightest, only afraid that the assassin will suddenly appear.

Chen Mingye reappeared outside the door again, which surprised the two guards before, they had seen Chen Mingye enter Meng's room with their own eyes, what was going on now?

"Ma'am. Chen Mingye walked outside the house and shouted softly.

The door was opened with a "creak", as if the people in the house had been waiting for him, the little maid opened the door and stood at the door, looking at him with a nervous expression: "Chen Gongzi, Madame, please come in." ”

"Good. Chen Mingye nodded, thinking that Meng Shi was quite uneasy at the moment, he should always have a few words of comfort.

Inside the house, Meng Shi seemed to have maintained the posture just now and had not moved, and when he saw him come in, he had only recovered from his somewhat lost appearance.

The maid closed the door gently, but the old woman's eyes were already firmly on Chen Mingye's body, and she waved at him a few times with both hands: "Quick, show me this old woman, nothing happened, right?"

A warm current surged in Chen Mingye's heart, and he walked in front of his Aunt Meng and smiled lightly: "Thank you Madame for your concern, the kid is fine." ”

"When is it, you still have to be polite to my old wife. Meng Shi stretched out his hands tremblingly, grabbed him, and looked at him carefully with weather-beaten eyes, "If you really want to talk about it, it's better for my Meng family to thank you, Xiaoye, you have suffered." ”

Chen Mingye was stunned.

Xiao Ye? Aunt Meng just called herself that, right? Didn't she always call herself Xiao Chen? Could it be that Aunt Meng was associated with something?

Chen Mingye's heart swelled up for a while, only he knew that this title had never been called so by his own family, and the family naturally included this Aunt Meng, who was as kind as his biological mother.

"Madam......" Chen Mingye opened his mouth, but he felt that he seemed to be slightly choked. In the chest that I thought was only hatred, there seemed to be a long-lost warm current flowing from an inadvertent corner.

Meng Shi looked at him kindly: "Didn't you say okay, why did you call me Aunt Meng again?"

Chen Mingye moved his lips, as if he gently put down the boulder that had been hanging in the air in his heart, and then spit out those two words: "Aunt Meng." ”

Meng Shi smiled with satisfaction, and actually reached out and dragged a wooden stool from the side to him: "Sit down, you kid, don't stand stupidly." ”

"Thanks...... Thank you, Aunt Meng. Chen Mingye hurriedly took it.

The hand that Meng Shi was holding him didn't let go from beginning to end, but quietly clenched it a little, just looked at him with a slight smile and didn't speak.

"Aunt Meng, there shouldn't be anything wrong with Brother Meng, I came here to inform you, you don't have to worry. Chen Mingye thought about it and found a topic to speak, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that his throat seemed to be a little dry.

"Okay, today's matter," Meng Shi looked at him carefully, nodded and said softly, "Thanks to you." ”

Madame was serious. Chen Mingye shook his head, "Since it was said that they were taking care of each other all the way, how could the kid sit idly by." ”

Meng Shi looked at him seriously, and there seemed to be a slight glint in his eyes. After a moment, she stretched out her hand, took the book that was thrown aside, and reached out to hand it to Chen Mingye: "Come, take it and take a look." ”

Chen Mingye was slightly stunned, stretched out his hand and took it: "Thank you Aunt Meng." ”

"Take it first, go back and read two chapters, keep it if you're interested, and if you're not interested, just send it over. Meng Shi looked at him deeply and said to him.

"Good. Chen Mingye knew that his Aunt Meng had always been a smart person, and there must be a deep meaning in his words, so he nodded immediately.

"You're from Southern Xinjiang, you shouldn't have been to Kyoto in the past two years, right?" Meng Shi looked at him and suddenly asked.

Chen Mingye nodded, he had been in exile for three years, and he really knew very little about the news of the outside world.

"You will take the exam in Kyoto, how can you not know about national affairs," Meng Shi patted his hand lightly, "If you don't think I'm an old woman, I can tell you a little about the past two years." ”

Chen Mingye looked up at the pair of eyes full of wisdom on the other side, and responded: "Then there is Aunt Lao Meng." ”

I don't know if this Aunt Meng guessed anything, but since she didn't say anything, then she would understand it. The situation of power in Kyoto is exactly the news he urgently needs now.

Meng Shi nodded, waved his hand to let the maid put the teacup on it, and then poured a cup of tea with his own hands and handed it to Chen Mingye: "Xiaoye, you have to listen to my next words." ”

Chen Mingye hurriedly stood up and took it respectfully: "The juniors listen to me." ”

Meng nodded, and ordered the maid to add another incense candle, and the room became brighter and brighter for a while. Only then did she look at Chen Mingye seriously and slowly speak.

The moonlight outside the window sprinkled into the room through the window, the flickering candlelight spread all over the room, and Meng's voice was like a long-lost sweet spring, dripping into Chen Mingye's heart.

After a long time, Meng Shi slowly finished speaking, Chen Mingye saw that she was tired, felt sorry for her body, and hurriedly asked her to rest early.

Meng Shi smiled and only said, "Today is rare." ”

Chen Mingye sighed: "Then the juniors won't bother much,"

"Go ahead. Meng Shi waved his hand, although his face was tired, he seemed to be in a good mood, "The old woman will not keep you." ”

"The juniors retired. Chen Mingye bowed and slowly exited the room.

Meng Shi looked at his back as he turned away, leaning on the backrest, his eyebrows and eyes full of relief.

"Madam, something like this happened today, and the people on Childe's side were scared to death, how can you be happy?" The maid on the side looked at her master, as if she couldn't figure it out.

"Over the years, such big and small things are not less, but with him today, I am extremely relieved," Meng Shi smiled, "Although there is no danger, speaking of which, it can be regarded as a rare happy day for me in so many years." ”

The little maid shook her head, her face was still full of doubts: "Madam, Xiaoyi doesn't understand." ”

"If you don't understand, you don't understand, if you understand, what else do you want my lady to do?" Meng Shi was in a good mood and made a joke with his considerate maid.

"Madame......" The maid blushed and didn't follow the Tao for a while.

"Hahaha, it's my daughter's family after all, I'm thin-skinned, and I don't blame you, what are you afraid of?" Meng Shi smiled, and the tiredness in his eyes finally showed, "Old man, I'm so good at kung fu, I can't sit still anymore, just go get some water and serve me to rest." ”

"Yes. The maid hurriedly complied with the order.

Meng Shi sat in place, his hands propped on the armrests of the chair, looking at the dancing candle flame in front of him, and his eyes were bright.

Chen Mingye walked out of the room, holding the book that Meng Shi had given him, and his heart was a little angry for a while. If Meng hadn't specifically mentioned it for him today, he would never have thought that the drastic change three years ago would have caused such a huge change in the government and the opposition.

In the Spring and Autumn National War, Chen Zishuai Qi stepped on the mountains and rivers of the Three Kingdoms, broke Southern Chu, attacked Chengshu, Pingbei Liang, and half of the Six Kingdoms of the Spring and Autumn Period were destroyed in his hands. This also means that the Chen family, in addition to the dignified Qiguo Mansion, under the handsome banner, meritorious people have long been all over the court.

What a terrible force this is!

Today's Zhenxi general Tu Tianjiao only destroyed the Han country, which can be regarded as a monstrous authority, and Haoming's western troops can be said to be within his control. And the Meng family, although the Marquis of Dingyuan destroyed the most declining Eastern Wu among the Six Kingdoms at the beginning, the current power in the court is also absolutely above 10,000 people.

In contrast, the original Chen family can really be said to be a master of high achievement.

Chen Mingye smiled bitterly, in the past three years, those generals of the Chen family, those who were delegated, and those who were dispatched, it can be said that above the current court, the Chen lineage, which once occupied most of the pattern, has collapsed and disappeared.

Chen Mingye still can't understand what kind of means did the one on the dragon chair use to keep those Chen descendants from moving?

The doubts of the past have not yet dissipated, Chen Mingye's eyes are condensed, but he will eventually uncover them one by one.

He glanced down at the scroll in his hand, remembered the court changes that Aunt Meng had said to him, and suddenly thought of something.
