Chapter 68: Discovery

Lu Yunzhou sat in the bath, looking at the faintly floating white figure behind the bead curtain, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief, closed his eyes and listened to the movement while taking a bath.

"Although Miss Xinyue doesn't look like there's a problem at all, let's check it out......"

The Yulan Tower at night is naturally the most lively time, Lu Yunzhou eliminated those noisy sounds one by one, and finally only the sound near Ouyang Xinyue's small building remained--

Two footsteps came from afar--

Whispered voices in a low voice--

"The goal is on it, should we wait for him to fall asleep for a while, we will definitely succeed this time!"

Lu Yunzhou's spirits lifted!

The Assassin has finally appeared!

He risked going deep into the tiger's den at any cost, just to catch the little tails of this group of assassins, otherwise Lu Yunzhou would not be able to feel at ease if such a group of people with malicious intentions towards him were left in Linzi!

"Don't mess around, the leader has said that all assassination activities must be stopped in the near future!"

"Although the leader is right to say so, but this opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, as long as the target is asleep, he will definitely be able to kill him smoothly, if you miss this opportunity, it will be a pity!"

"Stupid, if Qi Yu dies quietly in the Yulan Tower, Madam Lan will definitely be aware of our existence!

Lu Yunzhou was surprised in his heart, it seems that Mrs. Lan really has nothing to do with this group of assassins!

It's just that when Mrs. Lan saw the poisoned arrow at that time, she obviously recognized the poison on it, but why did she hide it?

Could there be something else going on?

"But isn't the point of us people staying here to assassinate the target on the list? What about exposure, it's a big deal for us to leave here and hibernate for a while, since Qi Yu is first on the list, it is the most valuable target, even if Lord Xiangguo is here, he must not hesitate to order him to be killed!"

Lu Yunzhou frowned, and became more and more puzzled in his heart, why was he the number one target on the list of Raushzi?

Who the hell hated him so much that he wanted to kill him quickly!

Lord Xiangguo, will it be Tiandan?

Tian Dan doesn't seem to have the need to kill me so deliberately, even if he wants to kill me, there is no need to be so troublesome, if these assassins are really Tian Dan's subordinates, then there is no need to hide in Linzi City at all!

Lu Yunzhou was shocked!

He found that his thinking had entered a dead end, and the so-called "Xiangguo" in this era was not only Tian Xiang!

It is now 256 B.C., and at this time, in addition to the famous Seven Heroes of the Warring States in later generations: Qin, Zhao, Yan, Han, Wei, Qi, and Chu, there are also two small states of Wei and Lu that are still surviving in the cracks.

In this way, there are a total of nine people who have the title of "Xiangguo-sama"!

However, it seems that the country of Lu was destroyed by Chunshenjun Huang Xie this year, but it has just started spring now, and it should not be so soon...... After all, if the Lu State is destroyed, then the amazing news will definitely reach the nearest Qi State as soon as possible!

"In 256 B.C., who were the prime ministers of the other countries?"

Lu Yunzhou carefully searched for the historical knowledge in his mind......

"Qin Guo should be Fan Ju...... Zhao Guo...... Lin Xiangru doesn't know if he is still alive, maybe the ruler is already Julu Marquis Zhao Mu...... Chu...... Most of it is Chun Shenjun Huang Xie...... Wei...... Xinlingjun should still be in Zhao State...... Other countries are completely unclear, let alone the two small countries of Wei and Lu...... Be sure to find someone to ask these questions when you go back tomorrow!"

Lu Yunzhou was thinking about it, and he heard the two people outside whispering--

"Don't be impulsive first, let's go back and report the news of Qi Yu's stay here to the leader, or let the leader decide whether to kill Qi Yu or not! Anyway, Qi Yu hasn't slept yet, so it's not easy for us to do it!"

"Don't say it, Miss Luo is here!" the other suddenly reminded his companion.

"What are you two rubbing around there, why did you take a piece of clothing for so long?" This was the voice of Ouyang Xinyue's maid, Xiao Luo.

"Miss Xiaoluo, this is the clothes that Miss wants. ”

"Okay, I'll take it to Miss, you guys go and get busy with something else!"

"Miss Luo, this is the first time that Miss has brought a man back, is it ......?"

"Wang Erdan, don't ask blindly if you shouldn't ask, be careful I tell Miss!"

"Yes, yes, let's go!"

Then Lu Yunzhou heard the footsteps going upstairs, thinking that it was Xiao Luo.

"Miss, bring the clothes for Qi Gongzi!"

It didn't take long for Xiao Luo to walk outside the room and knock on the door.

Lu Yunzhou opened his eyes and saw the shadowy white figure behind the bead curtain standing up, stepped forward to open the door, and walked in again.

Ouyang Xinyue's beautiful voice came--

"Qi Gongzi, I put the changed clothes outside, then I'll go out first!"

Lu Yunzhou responded: "I'm tired!"

"Qi Gongzi doesn't have to be polite!" The shadowy white figure walked out, and then Lu Yunzhou heard the sound of the door closing.

Lu Yunzhou quickly washed it, then picked up the cloth on the side to dry his body, lifted the bead curtain to see, only to see that the room was empty, and on the desk in the center of the room, there was a set of neatly folded moon-white clothes, and next to the clothes, there was Lu Yunzhou's Flying Star Sword.

Lu Yunzhou walked over, picked up his clothes and put them on.

After so many days, Lu Yunzhou had figured out how to wear these ancient robes, put them on his body in a few clicks, and inserted the Flying Star Sword into his waist, then opened the door and walked out.

Tonight, there is a great chance that the assassin will come to the door, he must hurry back to Ouyang Xinyue's room and prepare in advance!

Under the moonlight, Lu Yunzhou was dressed in a moon-white wide robe with big sleeves, his posture was straight, his long sword hung from his waist, and his long hair was not tied up after taking a bath, but was casually draped, Lu Yunzhou walked out of the room, turned his head and saw Ouyang Xinyue waiting outside the door, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

And Ouyang Xinyue, who was facing Lu Yunzhou face to face at this time, was also stunned all of a sudden--

The clothes on Lu Yunzhou's body were specially selected by Ouyang Xinyue, and his appearance at this time was exactly the same as the white-clothed Lu Yunzhou that Ouyang Xinyue saw in her dream-like imagination when she was listening to Lu Yunzhou sing the song on the shore of Lake Baikal before!

"Miss Xinyue, aren't you sleeping?" Lu Yunzhou didn't expect Ouyang Xinyue to be waiting outside, and said in surprise.

"I ...... I just want to see ...... Qi Gongzi wears this dress, does it fit...... Now it seems that this dress is really suitable for Qi Gongzi, so Xinyue is relieved...... Qi Gongzi have a good rest, Xinyue retires!" Ouyang Xinyue blushed, stumbled after saying this, and walked past Lu Yunzhou as if she had fled from the wilderness, and left in a hurry with her head down.

"Eh, what's wrong with her? Just to see if the clothes fit, she waited outside the door for so long?" Lu Yunzhou's second monk was puzzled, and sighed: "Miss Xinyue, as the master here, this service is so thoughtful, I'm embarrassed!"

After some admiration, Lu Yunzhou remembered the group of assassins, so he cheered up and walked back to Ouyang Xinyue's room along the corridor on the second floor.

After Lu Yunzhou entered the room, he closed the door tightly, inserted the latch, closed his eyes and listened to the movement for a while, and after making sure that the assassin had not yet arrived at this time, he immediately opened his eyes and scanned the situation in the room.

"With only one window, it is possible for the Assassins to climb up to the second floor and enter through the window, but of course they need to bring a ladder, which is more troublesome and easy to expose, so this is unlikely...... It is also possible that the Assassin used some kind of tool to pry the latch open the door and enter through the door...... The Assassins may wait an hour or two before making sure I'm asleep...... By the way, they may also use a bamboo pipe to insert it through the crack of the door like in the TV series, spray smoke or something, and make me stunned before doing it......"

Lu Yunzhou imagined the possibility of all kinds of assassins killing him, so he closed the window firmly and bolted it, then tore out two strips of cloth from his underwear, picked up the teapot placed on the bookcase, and wet it with tea and stuffed it into his nostrils.

"So you don't have to be afraid of smoke or anything...... But I seem to be a little sorry for Miss Xinyue, I tore the clothes she prepared for me, but fortunately I can't see it from the outside......"

Lu Yunzhou thought about it in a mess, entered the room again, spread out the quilt on the bed, and then stuffed the pillow under the quilt, pretending that someone was sleeping inside.

"That should be fine, but what if I hide there?"

Lu Yunzhou's eyes swept around the room, and when he saw the wooden wardrobe, his eyes lit up.

"I just hid in the closet and listened to the situation outside, and then when the Assassin came in and stabbed that pillow, I suddenly jumped out, and the Assassin must have been stupid, and I killed the Assassin with a sword!

Lu Yunzhou made up his mind, so he opened the wardrobe, only to see that it was full of Ouyang Xinyue's dresses, and the space in the wardrobe was just enough for one person to hide.

Lu Yunzhou first returned to the outer room and extinguished the candle, and then groped his way through the beaded curtain in the dark, put his shoes on the side of the bed, and put them off before going to bed, and then went into the closet to hide.

Lu Yunzhou was wrapped in a pile of fragrant dresses, reached out to close the wardrobe door, closed his eyes and listened carefully to the movement--

However, after a while he was sleepy.

Lu Yunzhou opened his eyes, rubbed his face vigorously, and closed his eyes and listened--

An hour passed......

Lu Yunzhou tilted his head and almost fell asleep again, and quickly pinched his thigh, stimulated his nerves with pain, and then barely regained consciousness!

"Why haven't you come yet? Are these assassins tortoises? This is too grinding! If I don't come, I really can't hold it and will fall asleep!"

Another hour passed......

Lu Yunzhou opened a pair of panda eyes and sighed weakly.

"What do you mean? Are these assassins really planning not to come? Do you have any professionalism? As an assassin, the target is right under your nose, and you guys are actually cowardly!

Lu Yunzhou stretched his numb limbs in the closet, and was struggling with whether to go to bed or continue to squat, when he felt the plank on the side of the wardrobe against the wall being pushed by his outstretched elbow.

"There's a discovery!"

Lu Yunzhou suddenly had a spirit, and he woke up in an instant!
