In the middle of the palace guard, it seemed to the assassin that, without asking, that must be where King Xuan was.
These ten people should be elite assassins. They did not rush into the guard formation, but stepped on the soldiers' heads to use their strength to shoot forward.
Swords are coming from all directions, aiming to kill with one blow.
But at this critical moment, the car suddenly fell apart!
Amidst the flying sawdust, a figure jumped out, as fast as lightning. He couldn't see the person coming at all. He only felt a cold light suddenly appeared, and the sharp sword edge passed by. The heads of the two assassins who had just approached were broken at the neck level!
ah! ? The other assassins were shocked and attacked.
At the same time, a large number of guards were not idle and began to swing their swords wildly. In a hurry, the assassin could only fall into the crowd and was instantly surrounded.
The person who came out of the car was none other than King Xuan's personal maid, Qing Qing.
After killing two people instantly, she flicked her wrist to shake off the blood beads on the sword's edge, looked at the assassin coldly and said:
"I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
"Oops! I've been fooled!" Seeing this scene, the other assassins quickly gathered together, in a back-to-back posture, each holding a sharp sword, and looked around nervously.
"Three sisters and four sisters, intercept and kill them!" With a sweet shout, Feng Qing jumped up and drew out her sharp sword.
The four maids of Fenghuaxueyue are all top-notch masters. Under the attack, there were only a few sword blades. The assassin leader was horrified and made a decisive decision: "Quickly retreat!"
The other assassins did not dare to stay for a long time. When he gave the order, they immediately struck with a sword and retreated, trying to break through the tight siege.
But at this time, they are obviously unable to fly!
"Want to leave!?" A sneer came from the side. The assassin leader was startled. He turned his head sharply. Before he could see the person clearly, the figure swayed and was in front of him. A strong wind hit him and hit his shoulder with a palm!
He didn't even react. He spurted out a mouthful of blood due to his inner strength. He was knocked away by the palm and the sharp sword in his hand also fell aside.
The person who came was none other than Yang Zhao, the leader of the Tsing Yi Guard. After knocking away the assassin, he immediately stepped forward and said with a cold smile: "Which country's monarch actually sent such a small fish and shrimp? If it was the Black Flag Camp of the Chu Kingdom, why did Jiang Gu Not coming!"
Looking at the embroidery of the official emblem on his brocade clothes, the assassin leader's eyes showed fear: "Qing...Qing Yiwei? You, you have already planned it..."
"Haha, it's a pity that I didn't seem to catch any big fish." Yang Zhao chuckled, directly preventing the assassin leader from committing suicide.
It didn't take long at all, and several other elite assassins were also arrested, while the other ordinary assassins were already surrounded by guards.
At this time, Xu Hu also came over, threw a uniformed assassin to the ground, and said in a muffled voice: "These assassins should be handed over to the capital guard camp of our country. They will surely find out something else."
Hearing this, Yang Zhao suddenly became unhappy: "General Xu, this assassination did not occur within the territory of the Qin State. It is not the Duwei Battalion's turn to intervene. It should be handled by the Qingyi Guards. We will also strictly interrogate of."
"You!" Xu Hu wanted to argue, but had nothing to say.
Obviously, if these assassins are at a good level within their own organization, they must know some other secrets, and maybe they can also find out the lurking dens in Xuanzhou. How could Yang Zhao give up such credit?
On the other side, Xiao Yuan and King Xuan, one person and one horse, had already entered Qinzhong.
That night, Wuling City.
By the time they arrived, it was already late at night.
Ancient cities, except for a few places, generally had night bans, that is, the city gates were closed at certain times, and Wuling was no exception.
The sound of horse hooves was heard, and the two men reined in the horse outside the city.
There were torches on the city tower, and the soldiers guarding the city immediately shouted: "Who is it!?"
Seeing this scene and seeing the tall and closed city gate again, King Xuan couldn't help but said: "This is great. I should have known that I would be on my way during the day."
"If we don't get to Wuling today, we won't have anywhere to rest. Don't worry, I have a way." Xiao Yuan comforted him, and then shouted to the city: "Quickly open the city! I have a warrant!"
Hearing this, the captain of the tower soldiers hesitated for a moment, and then waved his hand to his men.
Not long after, the tall city gate slowly opened, and a soldier wearing armor came quickly and said bluntly: "Where is the warrant?"
Xiao Yuan took out the silk book from his arms and handed it to the soldier.
This warrant was prepared before he entered the Xuan Dynasty, because he and Xu Hu would arrive at the city at night because they were in a hurry, so they were prepared.
The warrant is naturally the highest warrant, and one can pass freely in any city at any time.
After the soldier unfolded it and looked at it, he confirmed that it was correct, handed it back to Xiao Yuan, and then turned sideways and shouted towards the city: "Let it go!"
Entering Wuling City without any setbacks, it was almost midnight and the city was peaceful. After walking on the main street and looking for an inn, Xiao Yuan looked up at the signboard and then patted the door.
"Who?"
It wasn't until a while later that a lazy voice came from inside. Then the door opened and the waiter held an oil lamp, looking sleepy.
"The inn is for the convenience of pedestrians, why is it closed?" Xiao Yuan asked, intending to wake up the waiter from his drowsiness.
The latter rubbed his eyes and said helplessly: "Sir, don't look at what time it is now. Are there any doors open in the city?"
"Okay, two upper rooms." Xiao Yuan stopped talking.
"This..." The waiter showed a troubled look: "I'm really sorry, our store is almost full, and there is only one room left. Look..."
Xiao Yuan was happy when he heard this and couldn't help but glance at King Xuan.
The latter's face suddenly turned red, and he immediately shouted: "No! Can't you make room?"
"Then, there is nothing we can do. You two guests may want to go to another place and have a look." The waiter said.
"Okay, okay." Xiao Yuan took out the money, threw it to the waiter and said, "Just take the upper room you mentioned and feed the horse well."
Seeing Yinzi, the waiter's attitude immediately changed: "Dele, sir, please..."
King Xuan was in a hurry and was about to say something, but Xiao Yuan had already said first: "Okay, with the weather like this, where can we find an inn? Just one."
"But!" King Xuan was still anxious and his face turned redder, but Xiao Yuan couldn't help but took her hand and followed the waiter to the second floor.
After leading the two of them to an upper room, the waiter opened the door, then lit the candles in the room and said with a shy smile: "Are you satisfied, you two guests?"
Xiao Yuan looked around, nodded and said: "Well, the environment is not bad, you can go."
"Dele, sir, if you need anything, just ask." The waiter responded and left.
King Xuan pinched Xiao Yuan's palm fiercely, "Brother Wang, you must have done it on purpose!"
