Two hundred and forty-four There are assassins

Leaving Jinling City, Wu Zheng rode in front, behind him was Princess Caifeng's Luan, Ning Xiaoqian and Ning Xiaokun's carriage followed, and at the back was a team of nearly 100 guards.

While walking, Wu Zheng was thinking that this Princess Caifeng was a figure known to everyone in the country. As early as when Wu Zheng was young, he heard his grandmother tell countless stories about Princess Caifeng.

It is said that on the day of the birth of Princess Caifeng, a colorful phoenix bird suddenly flew in the air, first flew around the huge palace, and finally landed on the plane tree in front of the Kunning Palace where the queen lived, and after shouting three times, it disappeared in a blink of an eye.

Moreover, with the birth of Princess Caifeng, the entire Kunning Palace, and even the entire palace, smelled a strange fragrance. What's more, the strange fragrance did not dissipate after three days.

"So folk legends say that Princess Caifeng is the life of the queen's mother. ”

When he was a child, he heard his grandmother say this, and Wu Zheng didn't think about anything other than being curious. Now that I think about it, it seems a bit too much. In particular, the legend that "Princess Caifeng is the life of the queen's mother" is even more absurd. Now it is the world of the Gu family, how can it be possible for the daughter of the Gu family to be the queen's mother?

Now from the title of Princess Caifeng, it can be seen that what grandma said, the legend of Princess Caifeng that has been circulated among the people should not be groundless. Moreover, judging from Princess Caifeng's name "Gu Luan", the current emperor may have passed Princess Caifeng into the life of the queen in order to prevent the people from spreading more and more, so he deliberately used the word "Luan" to confuse the public.

For five days in a row, the trip to Beijing was nearly thirty percent, but he never heard Princess Caifeng mention letting Wu Zheng go back, so Wu Zheng had no choice but to continue to escort him.

On the evening of the sixth day, the group just entered Linshan City and stayed at the Linshan City State Guest House that night. After dinner, Wu Zheng specially asked Princess Caifeng for an hour's leave and returned to the house in Yonglin Lane to take a look.

Seeing that Wu Gang and Zhen Yu'er were there, he couldn't help but ask them about their journey to Tiandaomen.

"Don't worry, master, when we arrived at the Heavenly Dao Gate, there was no one inside. Presumably, the Qiandao people and the Yunlan girl should have gone out to travel. On the way back, I saw the old man and the young man, although the direction of the trip seemed to be the Heavenly Dao Gate, but it was definitely an empty trip. ”

"That's good, by the way, what happened that day?"

Wu Zheng, of course, refers to the incident where Wu Gang and Zhen Yuer were kidnapped by Duanmu Yuntian and Xiang Fei.

"Coincidentally, early the morning of the second day when we just came back from the Heavenly Dao Gate, we were approached by Duanmu Yuntian. I thought it was a friend of the master.,Just under the face of it, he was controlled by it.。 ”

"Did they come again?"

"No, they haven't been seen since the old man lured them away that day. ”

Wu Zheng thought to himself that he could think that they would continue to stay outside Linshan City, and the other party would definitely be able to guess that he would not come back for the time being, so he left directly.

"Will the master come back and leave?"

"I'll leave in a while, and I guess I won't be able to come back until before the Spring Festival. ”

Wu Zheng didn't tell Wu Gang and Zhen Yuer that he was escorting Princess Caifeng's Luan into Beijing, not that he didn't believe Wu Gang, but that he couldn't believe Zhen Yuer. Seeing that the eyes of the two became more and more intimate, Wu Zheng just didn't find anything, stayed at home for less than an hour, and returned to the State Guest House.

After patrolling around the guest house, carefully admonishing the guards on duty at night, as well as the officials and catchers sent by the Linshan Mansion in the evening, he returned to his room.

Although I secretly guessed, it should be impossible for a daring fellow to dare to hit the princess. Besides, they all lived in the county seat and the capital city all the way, and even if there was such a guy, they wouldn't dare to do it in the city.

Thinking about it, Wu Zheng has never let down his vigilance. I know in my heart that I am protecting the princess, a golden branch and jade leaf, and there must be no mistakes.

I know that the night is often the most dangerous time, so I don't dare to be careless for a moment. Although it seems to be sitting cross-legged on the bed to practice, in fact, the two ears are always erect, and I dare not let go of any wind and grass outside.

Hearing the drums on the street sounding four times in a row, knowing that it was already the fourth watch, that is to say, it would be dawn in another hour, Wu Zheng just wanted to stand up and move his numb legs, when the shouts of the guards suddenly came from the courtyard.

"Who? There's an assassin!"

Wu Zheng didn't have time to open the door, so he jumped out of the window directly, and fought with the four masked black-clothed men who came on hand with the Haoyue Sword in his hand.

I can't think about who has the courage to openly attack the princess's Luan in Fucheng. When Wu Zheng found that the four people around him were ridiculously tall, even far more than the five people he met in the Sun and Moon Boat at that time, a heart suddenly rose to his throat.

Fortunately, after the conversation between Ning Xiaoqian, Ning Xiaokun and Princess Caifeng came from the room, Wu Zheng was a little relieved. Hurriedly shouted to the three people in the room:

"Take good care of the princess, don't come out. ”

There were more than four people who came to attack the princess tonight, and there were three people in the courtyard who were fighting with nearly a hundred princess guards, as well as the officials sent by the Linshan Mansion in the evening. The kung fu of the three people is also as powerful, in the face of more than a hundred guards, as if entering a no-man's land, the long sword in their hands is like chopping melons and vegetables, and every time they fall, there must be a guard and a catcher who falls to the ground.

Wu Zheng was surrounded by four people, and he could only watch, but he was powerless to save those guards and catch them quickly.

has been struggling to deal with the four people around him with the Ling Xiao Nine Style, Wu Zheng has not used the original sword posture he has just learned, and he has not practiced the complete original sword posture once. It's not that I don't want to use it, but I don't dare to use it for the time being. Once that primordial sword momentum is used, it consumes too much internal force. After a few days, with Wu Zheng getting through the cultivation of Da Zhoutian, at most he could only hold on to half of the sword momentum, and he could no longer continue.

If it was only the seven people in front of him, he might be able to barely give it a try, if there were still extra masked black-clothed people hiding in the shadows, if he rashly used the primitive sword momentum, then he could only kill the seven people in front of him and let them slaughter.

Xu is Ning Xiaokun really couldn't stand it, and the innocent guards and catchers were killed one by one, and broke out of the room with a roar.

It was too late for Wu Zheng to stop him, because in the blink of an eye, Ning Xiaokun was intercepted by one of the three masked black-clothed men.

Looking at Ning Xiaokun's skills, it would be good to be able to barely walk twenty or thirty rounds under the opponent, and he would definitely lose after a long time. Wu Zheng couldn't hesitate anymore, after all, this was in Linshan City, and the government should soon be able to hear the movement and come to reinforcements. (To be continued.) )
