Chapter 44: Midnight Assassins

The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.

This sentence was told to Chu Yujia by Chu Qianwen before he died.

This is like the fate of the two generations of the Chu family, since Chu Qianwen has had an irreversible relationship with the current Ye King Zhao Yan, but in the end, Zhao Yan became the King of Ye, he still put Chu Qianwen in prison and executed Chu Qianwen on such a trumped-up charge.

And now, it is Chu Yujia again, there is no need to say much about the relationship between Chu Yujia and Zhao Kuan, the two have known each other since they were five years old.

The similarity of life experiences and two years of getting along day and night have already made the two little boys feel a sense of sympathy, although they haven't met for so long in the middle, and they haven't even said a word, but the two have a space in their respective hearts, storing the memories that only belonged to the two little boys.

Chu Yujia's words just now touched the bottom line in Zhao Kuan's heart.

He was right, once one day, Chu Yujia becomes the former Chu Qianwen, what should he do with him?

Do you really want to execute Chu Yujia like his father?

The grievances between the Chu family and the Zhao family will still be unresolved after many years......

But will there really be that day?

Is there a day when they turn their brothers against each other?

He didn't know, and neither did Chu Yujia.

Zhao Kuan walked to the window and looked up at the sky: "Yujia, Xiao Kuanzi is your brother, I really don't want you to die, Xiao Kuanzi wants you to be rich and noble, and I want you to dominate the world, but the future King of Ye Zhao Kuan can't, Zhao Kuan is going to plan for the people of Ye Kingdom, so once one day, you really have power over the world, you have to die......"

Zhao Kuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, he finally knew why the princes and kings of all dynasties had to call themselves the lone king.

Because once you sit in that position, you really become a loner.

But once one day he really kills Chu Yujia, will he fall into the situation where his father has no relatives and no brothers when he looks around today?

No one knew about this, including himself.

Let the future tell.

Zhao Kuan pursed his lips, and after Chu Yujia left for a long time, he also left the tea house.

Two flowers bloom, one on a single table.

The Earl's Mansion rewarded by King Ye is still under construction, so Chu Yujia can only temporarily live in the post house.

Chu Yujia has now been pardoned, and Limo and Xiao Yao'er, the main palace of Danyang County, have also received news that they will also return to the capital after the construction of the Earl's Palace.

It's just that Chu Yujia also knows that once Gong Limo returns to the capital, it will also be the time for him to set off for the northwest.

The two have been married for seven years, and they have only been together for four years.

But in the past four years, Chu Yujia has all kinds of shackles on his body, making him unable to really be himself.

And when he can be himself one day, he no longer has the opportunity to be with her.

This world is so strange that when you are with her, you are not capable.

And when one day I have the ability, I can no longer be with her.

Chu Yujia finally understood the pain in his father's heart back then.

He finally understood that it was not easy to be a courtier, a husband, and a father.

Maybe when people really have this day, they can really understand.

The loneliness in Chu Yujia's heart is something that no one can tell, let alone understand.

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in the silent street.

Chu Yujia was stunned, it was not dawn yet, who would run wildly on the street?

He listened carefully, and the footsteps grew closer, sounding like they could not be made by one person.

He quietly closed the window and peered through the gap.

After a short time, three figures flashed on the street.

As the three figures ran closer and closer, Chu Yujia gradually saw clearly, these three people were all about twenty years old, and they were all wearing black armor and white robes that belonged to Ye Guo, but now the black armor on their bodies was in tatters, and one of them seemed to be injured and was being supported by a companion.

Is it an assassin?

Or what?

Chu Yujia frowned slightly.

Soon, the three of them had already come to the window where Chu Yujia was.

Those three people were obviously not ordinary people, even if they were all running away, they still found Chu Yujia standing behind the window.

One of them looked at him warily, and without stopping, he was about to run past him.

At this moment, there were bursts of shouts from behind the three of them: "This way, the assassin is running this way, chase after him!"

Assassins as expected?

Chu Yujia was stunned for a moment, but since the other party was not coming for him, he didn't want to meddle in his affairs.

But just when the other party was about to pass by him, Chu Yujia suddenly saw a familiar figure among the three of them.

Chu Yujia's heart moved, he opened the window and touched the ground on his toes, jumped out of the window, and his figure flashed directly in front of the three of them like a ghost, blocking their way.

Seeing this, the three of them were all startled, stopped, and raised the weapons in their hands, and pointed at Chu Yujia in unison, one of them asked in a low voice, "You are also Wu Dangguo's lackey?"

Before Chu Yujia could answer, another person roared angrily: "Don't talk to him, let's fight with him!"

This person was holding a long sword, and he rushed to Chu Yujia's approach, raising his knife and stabbing it.

His sword was fast, but for Chu Yujia, it was also unremarkable, he raised his hand lightly, and only took out two fingers to clamp the opponent's long sword to his fingertips, making it impossible for the other party to hand out an inch of the long sword.

The man's face was shocked, he didn't expect that he would meet a master like Chu Yujia here.

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not what you call a lackey. ”

Without waiting for the man to speak, Chu Yujia turned his head to look at the young man who looked very familiar, and asked, "Are you from the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect?"

Chu Yujia's memory is not outstanding, but it is not bad, as long as it is someone who can leave an impression on him, he will not forget it for a long time.

The master of the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect is Chu Yujia's mentor, but Chu Yujia has never been to the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, and it has always been the old master who secretly went to the Hussar General's Mansion to teach Chu Yujia his swordsmanship skills in private.

And two years ago, the old sect master had found Chu Yujia, who was wandering around, and told him something about the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, and at that time, there were several sword boys who followed the old door master, and this young man should be one of them.

Hearing that the other party suddenly revealed his identity, the injured young man's heart was also shocked, and he subconsciously asked, "Who are you?"

"Don't be nervous, I'm not your enemy. ”

When the other party said this, it had actually confirmed Chu Yujia's guess, and Chu Yujia moved the corners of his mouth and said: "The reason why I know you is because I am also a disciple of the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect, but I am just a disciple of the old sect master outside the door, you may not have seen me, but I have seen you." ”

"You're also from the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect?"

"Yes. ”

At this time, more hurried and chaotic footsteps came, and it was supposed that the pursuers had arrived.

Chu Yujia narrowed his eyes and said, "This is not the place to talk, if you can trust me, come with me." ”

As soon as the words fell, Chu Yujia walked towards the inn.

Several young people didn't know Chu Yujia, and at this time they all set their eyes on the injured young man.

After the young man pondered for a while, he nodded, and several people silently followed Chu Yujia's footsteps and quickly entered the inn.

Enter the inn and enter Chu Yujia's room.

The young man from the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect opened his mouth and asked, "Are you really a disciple of the Cloud Piercing Sword Sect?"

"Yes. ”

Chu Yujia responded casually, glanced down at the young man, and then asked, "Where are you injured?"

"Leg ......"

Chu Yujia bent down and took advantage of the moonlight outside the window to check the young man's legs.

He had a stab wound in his right leg, which was deep, and it looked like he was about to evacuate when a sword pierced his calf.

After looking at it, Chu Yujia took out his bag from inside before returning to the closet, took out a small medicine bottle from it, handed it to a young man casually, and said, "This is gold sore medicine, you two help them take it." ”

The young man took the medicine bottle, couldn't help but wonder in his heart, and asked, "Who are you, we don't know your name yet?"

"Chu Yujia. ”

Chu Yujia replied lightly.

As soon as he heard this, the injured young man struggled to get up from the bed, looked at Chu Yujia with a surprised face, and said, "You are Senior Brother Chu?"

"Exactly. ”

When the injured young man heard that this person turned out to be Chu Yujia, he actually showed a look of wanting to cry, looked at Chu Yujia with a moving face, and said in a trembling voice: "Senior Brother Chu, I finally found you......"

Not only him, but the other two young people also had such expressions.

"Looking for me?"

Chu Yujia frowned, looking at the young man in front of him, a little confused.

"Yes...... It's Master......"

"Master?"

Hearing these two words, Chu Yujia's heart was shocked, and he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong with Master?"

"Master was assassinated ten days ago, and he was seriously injured, and he still doesn......'t know whether he is alive or dead."

"I don't know if I live or die?"

"No way. ”

Chu Yujia sneered: "You must be lying to me, I still know my master's skills, how can an ordinary assassin compete with it?"

"It's true, Senior Brother Chu......"

"Otherwise, I wouldn't have brought my junior disciples to the capital to assassinate Wu Dangguo. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

Chu Yujia narrowed his eyes: "You mean, it was Wu Dangguo who sent someone to assassinate Master?"

"That's ...... him"

The injured young man snorted coldly and said: "Not only ten days ago, Wu Dangguo has been doing these things all this time, Master, Senior Brother has been assassinated by unknown assassins one after another, Senior Brother has also been seriously injured, Second Senior Brother asked us not to act rashly, we can't be angry, so we came to Yueling." ”

Another young man also said with indignation on his face: "Who would have thought that Wu Dangguo, a dog thief, would have so many top masters in captivity, not only are we not their opponents, but we have also injured Senior Brother Qi......

Hearing what a few people said, Chu Yujia was really a little speechless.

No matter how Wu Dangguo says, he is also the general of Ye Guo, how can he not have a master of the rivers and lakes by his side?
