087 Assassination
Ivan has been happy since the moon slave appeared, no, it should be said that Catherine has been happy since she took the talent test. It's just happier now.
During this time, he would go to Tina's almost every night to see his genius thirteenth daughter, Catherine, as if he couldn't sleep if he didn't look at it for a day.
Today, when the sun was already sinking in the west, Ivan finally finished dealing with today's government affairs. He stretched and got up from his seat, and said to the guards below, "Prepare the car for Bendi, Bendi is going to see my precious daughter at Tina's." ”
The guards immediately answered yes and hurriedly led the carriage and horses over. With a smile on his face, Ivan got into the car and went to the palace of Emperor Tina.
At the same time, a group of people quietly came to the queen's bedchamber, all of whom were wearing the standard armor and standard swords of the royal guards, but the bloody aura was not something that those guards who had never experienced a big scene could have.
These people are clearly not legitimate people. The first of these people was a middle-aged man with a grim face, and the air seemed to be much cooler as he walked there.
Not long after, Queen Sophia, dressed in fine clothes, came out from behind, looked at the people, and nodded in satisfaction.
"You're the Dead Leader One. Sophia stepped into the chair and looked up at the middle-aged man whose face did not change, "Very good, worthy of being the dead soldier of my Loulan family." This time, I want the family to ask you to come over, just to let you do something for me. If this is a matter of success or failure, you will all face death, and this is a fate that you cannot escape. ”
The men listened to Sophia's decision to kill her so easily. There was no reaction at all.
"Now. Sophia paused, "I'll leave the task to you." One, listen, my mission is to kill the thirteenth princess Catherine, and you must not evacuate after successfully completing the mission, pretending to be powerless to resist being captured. Of course, if you can't complete the task, you don't need me to say anything. After you are captured, you must explain that you were sent by Alina, you know?"
Number One bowed slightly, "Understood." His voice was as cold as a human.
After that, the number one took his men on a mission. Watching the men leave, Sophia sneered. What about Catherine genius, a dead genius is no longer a genius. And Alina, what good about you to make Ivan's bastard miss you.
Not to mention that Sophia was cursing fiercely in her heart, Ivan was already about to arrive at Tina's bedchamber. Seeing Lili in the palace of purpose, thinking of his genius daughter, Ivan couldn't help but want to laugh.
The guards in front of the gate of Tina's palace saw Ivan's car from a distance, and hurriedly slapped it in to report to the sky. Tina had been ready to take over, and Ivan would come to her chamber every night these days, and every time it was about the same time.
As soon as Tina finished changing her clothes, the guards came in and reported that 10,000 was coming. Tina excitedly carried Catherine out to meet Ivan.
Ivan's car stopped in front of Tina's dormitory, and as soon as the car stopped, Ivan couldn't wait to get out of the car. Ivan reached out and hugged Catherine from Tina's hand, looking at Catherine in her sleep with a smile on her face.
"Your Excellency, the little one is asleep now, do you want to wake her up?" said Tina, reaching out to shake Catherine.
Ivan immediately stopped Tina's hand, his face sank slightly, and said, "Don't disturb the little baby when she is asleep." What if I disturb my little one?"
Tina actually did this on purpose, and immediately replied with a panicked face when she heard this, "Your Excellency is angry, the concubine just wants Catherine to see her father." ”
While Ivan was chatting, a team of brightly armored guards not far away slowly and vigorously patrolled towards this side. No one paid much attention to such a group of unremarkable patrol guards.
Two hundred meters, one hundred meters, fifty meters, the group of guards was getting closer and closer to Ivan. Just as they were about to stagger, a figure suddenly appeared next to Ivan, and he instantly protected Ivan and Catherine behind him.
Almost at the same time, the group of guards drew their swords and struck at Ivan and Tina's guards. The guards hadn't seen bloodshed in a long time, though they had all been first-class soldiers.
Caught off guard, those guards of the palace buried more than a dozen people in an instant, and they were killed by the other party with one move. However, the strength of the person who suddenly appeared next to Ivan was very strong, and the number one who fought against him couldn't tell the winner.
"Shadow, protect Catherine. Ivan shouted as he stepped back.
Although Ivan was a swordsman, he hardly fought anyone. The sound of fighting here quickly attracted the guards not far away. As the number of guards increased, so did the pressure on each of the dead.
Number One knew that the mission would not be completed if it continued like this. A few screams suddenly came out of the mouth of No. 1, and the dead soldiers who had been fighting back and forth quickly withdrew from the battle, even if they were injured.
The dead soldiers quickly formed a circle, forming a strange formation, cooperating with each other to defend, and for a while the palace guards could not even attack it. Number One screamed a few more times as he fought with the shadow.
All but the outermost of the dead continued to resist, and all the inner layers were taking some red-colored pills.
Shadow shouted in shock, "Quick, kill those people immediately!"
It's just that the moment he looked back, Number One also took the same pill. The dead began to emit a furious aura, and some red gossamer gas bubbled out of their bodies.
Seeing this, Ei's forehead began to sweat. After those dead soldiers took the pill, their eyes turned red and bloodthirsty, and even their strength improved to varying degrees. The dead soldiers picked up their swords again and fought hard.
After taking the pill, these dead soldiers completely gave up their defenses, blindly only knowing how to harvest their lives, even if their hands were broken and their feet were broken, they still had to wield their big swords and continue to kill the guards on this side of the palace.
The most bitter thing is still that shadow, No. 1's strength has also improved to a certain extent after taking the pill, and the original shadow can still tie with No. 1, but now it can only defend.
Fortunately, Ying knew that such a pill would definitely not last, so he silently gritted his teeth and persisted.
Xue Xi also heard the hustle and bustle over there, but she didn't bother to care about things over there. However, she still watched it with relish, and there were only two people worthy of her attention, which was naturally Yinghe No. 1.
Although Xue Xi's cultivation in the Chaos Heavenly Scripture is not satisfactory now, she is not only the Chaos Heavenly Scripture as a supporter, the purple and green sword qi, the power of time and space, these are all one of Xue Xi's strengths.
As he spoke, the situation over there also changed, and No. 1 exchanged injuries for injuries and approached Ivan's side. Without saying a word, No. 1 slashed at Catherine with a sword. Fortunately, the shadow came back in time, and fortunately, although Ivan's strength was not very good, he could still block one or two moves from No. 1, so although Catherine was seriously injured, she still did not die.
Sensing that the energy in his body had begun to wane, Number One knew that he had no chance. And the people he brought with him were also dead and wounded, and No. 1 stared at him, intending to make a desperate bet.
No. 1 instantly changed a move, and used his back to bear the shadow move, and the entire back instantly became a blur of flesh and blood. With the power of Shadow's blow, Number One instantly rushed to Tina's side. The sword in his hand slashed at Catherine and Tina again.
Seeing that No. 1's sword was about to pierce Catherine's body, Tina turned her body sharply and used her body to block the sword for Catherine. One's sword pierced through Tina's abdomen in an instant, and Shadow's sword pierced into One's heart.
No. 1 glanced at the shadow lightly, "Hehe, we won't end well." Because, we are all the same people. ”
This is probably the longest sentence that No. 1 has said in his life.
Shadow looked at the half-kneeling corpse of No. 1, and felt a sense of sympathy in his heart. Shadow knew that what One said was right, they were indeed the same people, but the masters who served them were different.
The rest of the dead were still resisting, but were soon subdued by a steady stream of guards. Some people take poison as soon as they are caught, and there are still others who do not have time to take the poison.
Of the fifty-one dead soldiers, there were only eight people left, but the palace side paid the price of more than two hundred deaths, and of course many more people were injured in varying degrees of severity.
Xue Xi saw all this in his eyes from his divine sense, and for the swordsmanship of those guards, Xue Xi expressed serious disdain in his heart, and he would only go straight, except for splitting and stabbing, there was no other move, it was so monotonous that it couldn't be monotonous anymore.
Now there is no drama to watch, and Xue Xi has taken back her divine sense.
The guards over there were still busy, and they had to interrogate the dead. Ivan also sat there with a look of anger after the danger had passed, this time not only had he lost a large number of well-known guards, but more importantly, Catherine and Tina had been wounded, and now the royal doctor and priest were on their way to the emergency.
Watching the maids come back and forth, busy helping Tina and Catherine stop the bleeding, Ivan's face was gloomy and terrifying. Just now, he ordered the guards to interrogate the mastermind of the assassination no matter what.
He has already planned that as long as the mastermind is interrogated, he will definitely break the mastermind into pieces.
The priest and the royal physician soon arrived at Tina's bedchamber, and after some treatment, both Tina and Catherine were out of danger, but they had to recuperate for a while.
Ivan comforted Tina, and after confirming that Catherine was really fine, he left Tina's dormitory with a calm face.
Looking at Ivan's departing figure, Tina suddenly laughed. Because she knew that after this incident, Ivan would pay more attention to her and Catherine. Maybe she can rise among the many imperial concubines because of this.
But then she thought of Catherine again, and when she thought of Catherine Tina, she couldn't lie down. Struggling to get up, the maids were clever enough to carry Catherine over.
Seeing her daughter's frowning brow in her sleep, Tina couldn't help but feel a burst of colic in her heart, and couldn't help but secretly swear in her heart that she must make the person who wanted to kill her daughter pay the heaviest price.
An assassination did not bring much turmoil to the palace, Ivan silenced all the guards and maids, and this great event that was enough to cause a sensation in the entire Silvermoon Empire began in the palace and ended in the palace.
A month passed quietly, and many people gradually forgot the thrill of that time.
In the cell where the dead were held, today the queen ushered in the queen's carry. The queen's words were to see who wanted to harm the most promising thirteen princesses of the Silver Moon Empire.
Naturally, the guards did not dare to stop Sophia's footsteps. Retiring the guards, Sophia walked towards the cell where the dead were being held.
As if she didn't know them, Sophia walked past them one by one. It was only at the end that he whispered a few quick words in the dead man's ear.
Sophia naturally had to do enough and ordered the guards to interrogate the Lord's envoy by all means.
Soon after the queen left, the guards quickly presented a confession to Ivan, who looked at the confessions but did not speak.
