Daxing City.
In the inner city.
In an inconspicuous house.
An oil lamp was lit.
The light is like a bean, swaying slightly.
Dongfang Yumei sat in front of the desk, her eyes flickering slightly, full of vigilance.
Tap tap tap!
Tap tap tap!
Tap tap tap!
Sudden.
There was a sound of dense footsteps.
This sound seemed very clear in the silent night.
"come yet?"
Hearing such noise.
Dongfang Yumei trembled, and immediately grasped a pair of short guns next to her tightly, exhaled and blew out the oil lamp, swayed slightly, and ducked to the wall near the window.
"Huh? Why did the oil lamp go out?"
"It's strange. You could still see bright light just now. Could it be that you have noticed that we have arrived?"
"Please be careful, this woman is from a palace guard and has extraordinary martial arts skills."
"yes!"
Listening to the voices coming from the window.
Dongfang Yumei's face became increasingly bitter.
She was originally a female general in the palace guard and had been responsible for the safety of Princess Qionghua.
But.
Just yesterday.
She saw something she shouldn't have seen in the back garden of the palace, and was hunted by this mysterious force.
Although it is mysterious.
but……
Dongfang Yumei sighed, and the image of a young man wearing a brocade robe and always smiling appeared in her mind.
Not what she saw with her own eyes yesterday.
She probably would never believe in her life that the gentle and kind King Jin could be such a cruel person!
boom!
boom!
boom!
However.
Just when Dongfang Yumei was thinking about it.
The door to the house and the surrounding windows were broken open at the same time.
Immediately afterwards.
Black figures flew in from outside like sharp arrows.
but.
Dongfang Yumei seemed to have been prepared for it.
She took advantage of the people who flew in from outside before they landed, and the arrows in her sleeves were already shot out.
In a flash.
Arrows flying across the sleeves were fired.
In the middle, a man in black jumped in from the window.
"oops!"
While the man in black fell on his back.
Dongfang Yumei looks like a civet cat, twisting her waist slightly and leaping out from the window lattice.
"No, this person wants to leave!"
At this moment.
Everyone in the room has already discovered traces of Dongfang Yumei.
When they saw Dongfang Yumei coming out of the window, they naturally warned their companions outside.
really.
Just when Dongfang Yumei jumped out of the window lattice.
Three or four long knives came from several directions at the same time.
but.
Dongfang Yumei is indeed a talented person and a bold person.
She stepped back and leaned her back against the wall. She shook out a pair of green-colored spears with white shafts in her hands and crossed them in a cross shape, immediately blocking the long knives.
Immediately afterwards.
She raised her arms, and her spears rose up like two dragons. While swinging away the enemy's weapons, she swayed and flew out.
Hoo ho ho!
Hoo ho ho!
Hoo ho ho!
closely following Dongfang Yumei's figure.
They were five or six masters dressed in black warrior uniforms.
Several people followed, slashing at Dongfang Yumei's back with long knives in their hands.
Dongfang Yumei held the gun behind her back to block the attack from behind, while her steps changed, rising and falling between the layers of houses.
Not long after.
Dongfang Yumei walked on a roof and came to a dark alley.
Suddenly.
She turned around, did a somersault in the air, and several sleeve arrows shot out, flying straight towards the men in black behind her.
Puff puff!
The next second.
A series of sounds of hidden weapons entering flesh were heard.
The men in black groaned, and they all rolled off the roof and fell heavily to the ground.
Dongfang Yumei was undecided, so she didn't stop much, and accelerated her feet again, speeding towards the north gate of the city.
…
the other side.
Inside the palace of Prince Jin.
In the study room, the lights are brightly lit.
On the main seat.
Jin Wang Yang Guang's face was gloomy.
On the couch at the bottom, sat Yu Wenhuaji, Zhang Heng, Su Wei, Yang Su, Yang Yue, Pei Ju, Yu Shiji and other close ministers.
"Everyone... My father has been staying in Renshou Palace these days, and Mrs. Xuanhua is taking care of me. This has made my mood a little better. Therefore, we cannot let my father know about some conspiracies. We can just deal with them on our own... "
Yang Guang took a sip of tea and said slowly.
Speaking of which.
He turned his eyes and looked at Yu Wenhuaji, and then said: "How did that matter go?"
"Your Highness...I have arranged for the Golden Snake Guard to handle this matter. The leaders of the Golden Snake Guard, Sima Dekan and Linghu Xingda, will personally preside over it. I believe that the result will be achieved tonight."
I heard Yang Guang ask.
Yu Wenhuaji stood up and walked a few steps, bowed his head and answered.
"Well... this matter must be done carefully. Now that the queen has passed away soon, we can't let my father suffer the pain of losing a daughter again."
Yang Guang sighed, the corners of his eyes were actually a little moist, and he said sadly.
"I obey the decree!"
Yu Wenhuaji bowed slightly and accepted the order.
"Your Highness, Sima Dekan and Linghu Xingda are back!"
At this moment.
Shen Guang and Qian Jie, who were responsible for guarding outside the study, came in to report.
"It seems that the Golden Snake Guard is much more efficient than the internal and external marquis officials."
When Yang Guang heard the arrival of the two men, he nodded slightly and turned to the side and said to everyone.
Golden Snake Guard.
Born out of Yang Guang's personal guards.
This is a supervisory and intelligence organization different from internal and external officials.
These institutions are specifically responsible for the orders of Yang Guang, and they have included countless martial arts masters who serve as the claws and fangs of the Jin Palace.
Some days ago.
Yang Guang was appointed by Yang Jian and began to exercise the power of supervising the country.
He naturally integrated the Golden Snake Guard into the internal and external marquises for the transition and takeover of this national intelligence agency.
As for the leaders of the Golden Snake Guard, Sima Dekan and Linghu Xingda, they were both former guards of Yang Guangjin's palace. Each of them had extraordinary martial arts skills, and they were loyal to Yang Guang and had no intention of rebellion.
At this moment.
With permission from Yang Guang.
Sima Dekan and Linghu Xingda entered the study together.
"Greetings to Your Highness!"
The two of them knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully to Yang Guang.
"You are hurt?"
Yang Guang asked when he saw that Linghu Xingda's left arm below was wrapped in white cloth and emitting a strong smell of gold sore medicine.
"Reporting to Your Highness, we were incompetent and allowed two of the assassins in the palace to escape."
Linghu Xingda's face turned pale and his voice trembled as he spoke.
"There are forty-six assassins on the list, but only two of them escaped. You Golden Snake Guards are quite efficient...but, these two people can't be allowed to live."
Yang Guang said to Sima Dekan and Linghu Xingda with a steady voice.
"Yes, yes! Your Highness taught you the right lesson. We will fight to the death to find the two assassins as soon as possible and bring back their heads!"
Sima Dekan and Linghu Xingda kept kowtowing and said quickly.
"Alas! It doesn't matter if you fail. You will be rewarded if you deserve it, and you will be punished if you deserve punishment. If their heads are not brought back, you two can just offer them."
Yang Guang smiled slightly and said pleasantly.
"Yes, yes! I obey!"
Hear this.
Sima Dekan and Linghu Xingda suddenly shuddered and said.
"By the way, who are the names of the two people who escaped?"
Yang Guang asked coldly.
"Your Highness, the two people who escaped are Princess Qionghua's personal guard Dongfang Yumei, and the other is Zhang Zhongjian, the chief guard of the Prince's East Palace."
Sima Dekan cupped his hands and replied.
"The princess's guard colluded with the prince's guard, causing the princess to drown in the royal garden. Alas... Such tragic news makes the lonely king's heart hurt so much!"
Yang Guang's eyes were full of tears and his voice was low and choked as he spoke slowly.
"Your Highness, please forgive me!"
See this situation.
Everyone under his command knelt on the ground and said.
