When Lu Zuo asked, he just sneered, "As long as these choices make Your Majesty feel safe, then everything is under control!"
Lu Zuo raised his lips slightly and continued: "Tomorrow, my lord, you must enter the palace as early as possible to meet the Queen Mother. You just need to do as I say." After Lu Zuo said this, he asked King Ning to come closer and whisper in his ear, telling him what to do tomorrow. action.
Looking at the moon hanging in front of the window, Liu Xun stood up and left.
After seeing off Prince Ning, Lu Zuo and Yin Ji went to sleep in the main room. The moon was in the sky, but Lu Zuo was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Tomorrow, as long as King Ning does what he said, maybe the Han Emperor will summon him immediately. How should he face it then? How to deal with it? I'm afraid that after meeting my enemy at that time, I won't be able to control myself, and everything will be in chaos. I'm afraid that everything will be burned down again. I have to control my emotions in order to achieve great things. I listened to the chirping of cicadas and a few owls outside the house. I don't know. Before I knew it, I fell into sleep.
"Who...Master is in danger!"
Yin Ji's loud shout woke up Lu Zuo from his sleep. The moment he opened his eyes, a bright sword was stabbing towards his face. Lu Zuo was about to turn sideways to avoid it, but he couldn't do it despite all his strength. , just when he was about to close his eyes and draw his neck to kill, Yin Ji flew over with a kick and knocked the man in black holding the sword to the corner. When Yin Ji was about to step forward and grab the man in black, a cold wind suddenly hit him from behind. Yin Ji knew that someone was attacking behind him. When he quickly turned his head to look, he saw that there were indeed two men in black who were stabbing him with swords. Yin Ji raised his legs and swept them away. , the two people still fell to the ground in response. Unexpectedly, the man in black in the corner had already come to the bedside, and was ready to assassinate the master again. Yin Ji quickly grabbed the man in black by the back collar and pulled him in front of him. The man in black could not struggle, so he could only turn around and stab Yin Ji with his sword. At this time, Yin Ji felt that the other two assassins just now were coming from behind. Attacked from behind, he grabbed the back collar of the man in black in front of him and moved out of the way. The man in black's sword flew into the air and stabbed straight at the other two assassins, hitting the man in black on the right. , the man fell into a pool of blood in response. The other two saw this with surprise in their eyes.
When the two of them were distracted, Yin Ji elbowed the man in black on the head. After he fainted instantly, he took the sword from his hand and stabbed the man in black in front of him. The man in black saw He turned around and ran out of the courtyard. Yin Ji also rushed out. At the same time, he threw away the broken sword of the man in black and pulled out his own Zhanlu sword from the wall. When he just ran to the door, Master came from behind. He stopped shouting, "Don't chase the poor bandits, they want to lure the tiger away from the mountain."
Yin Ji then turned around and said angrily: "Then spare his life!"
Yin Ji walked to the table and lit a candle. The room suddenly became much brighter. Then when he walked to the door and was about to dispose of the body, a group of men in black holding swords with flashing cold light came towards him. The sword light went straight to Yin Ji's chest. . Yin Ji dodged and dodged several attacks before he fought back. The three men in black in front fell to the ground with blood splattered on them, and then the men in black behind them launched another attack.
After going back and forth like this, seven or eight men in black had fallen at the door. At this time, they could only hear shouts of killing in the yard. When the dozen or so men in black saw the reinforcements arriving, they quickly retreated and fled over the wall. Yin Ji was afraid of these. They had a plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain, so they could only watch from the door as they quickly climbed over the wall from the west wing and escaped. Looking at the other end of the yard, it was Lao Pan who was leading a few servants, each holding a torch in his left hand and a knife in his right hand, rushing to support him.
Lao Pan held a lantern in one hand and a waist knife in the other. Panting, he ran to the door and looked at the corpses on the ground. Then he looked at Yin Ji and found him safe. Then he looked at Lu Zuo inside the house and asked eagerly: "Master, are you okay?" Bar!"
Lu Zuo was sitting at the round table drinking water at this time. He replied coldly: "I'm fine. Take these corpses out and report them to the official tomorrow."
Lao Pan looked at the corpses scattered on the ground and said angrily: "Whose people are these? Under the influence of the king in the capital, they dare to commit crimes. It is simply lawless!" While calling the people behind him, "You all come here, take the corpses first." Carry it to the woodshed!"
"Wait a minute!" Lu Zuo stood up and came to the corpse. "You two, take off their veils and have a look. Then search them to see if there is anything suspicious."
Several servants took off the veils from the eight corpses respectively, and then groped inside and outside the corpses. After searching for a long time, they found no clues. Several servants shook their heads helplessly at Lu Zuo, indicating that there was nothing suspicious. .
Yin Ji also leaned over to pick up a man's sword and said doubtfully: "This sword is very ordinary. I can't tell who is using it! Master, who do you think these people are?"
Lu Zuo's face was as dark as water, "It seems that the enemy can't wait any longer!"
"What?" Yin Ji asked curiously, "Which enemy?"
"Do you still have to ask?"
Yin Ji suddenly realized, "Oh! It's the prince and the others! Do they already know our identities?"
Lu Zuo smiled slightly and said, "Master, I don't know whether we have discovered our identities or not. But we must have found out that we have something to do with Prince Ning!"
Lao Pan and Yin Ji both looked horrified after hearing this. Lu Zuo continued thoughtfully: "It seems that we must change our status quo tomorrow. Only by letting the emperor and all ministers know our existence!"
Yin Ji hesitated and said, "But wouldn't they all know your identity?"
Lu Zuo said solemnly: "That's right! It's time for us to announce to everyone that we will return..."
Lao Pan pointed to the corpses on the ground and asked, "Can these corpses be moved down?"
Lu Zuoyi raised his hand to signal a moment, then leaned over to check a corpse at his feet, "Old Pan, light!"
Lao Pan handed a lantern in his hand to Lu Zuo. Lu Zuo raised the corpse's hand and illuminated it with a dim candle in the dark night. After a while, he stood up and returned the lantern to Lao Pan.
Yin Ji and Lao Pan both asked curiously: "Is there something wrong?"
Lu Zuo smiled, "These people are well-trained soldiers! It seems that our guess is right!"
"How can you tell this?" Yin Ji asked curiously.
"There is a thick layer of calluses on the tiger's mouth and the palm of the deceased's hand, and the calluses on the right hand are thicker than the calluses on the left hand. This shows that this is caused by holding swords and guns for many years, and they all obey the orders of the superiors and use the same hand. , coupled with the dark complexion of these people, it means they have been training in the sun for a long time, so..."
Before Lu Zuo could say anything, Yin Ji interjected: "So it means that he is from the Crown Prince and the others?"
Lao Pan stood awkwardly at the door for a long time, "Master, you think it's scary to have these corpses here. Should you get rid of them first?"
