However, Xiao Yan has been on the battlefield for a long time and has fought against many masters.
He saw this flaw in the shadow assassin.
Xiao Yan did not catch up.
He slowly landed on the ground, took the opportunity to suppress the backlash of the red blood poison, and swallowed a mouthful of blood.
If I hadn't learned the Qi Watching Technique back then, I would have really had to deal with it in Qujiang today.
The reason why Xiao Yan was able to see the true identity of the shadow assassin was because he had learned the art of gazing.
It's not some kind of emperor's qi-gazing technique.
It's just that in Taoism, one can also see a person's Qi by looking at Feng Shui, mountain topography, celestial phenomena, etc.
And this Taoist Qi-gazing technique is not something that everyone can master. It requires a certain amount of talent, opportunity, and understanding.
But the shadow assassin also saw that Xiao Yan saw his flaw, and even saw that Xiao Yan was suppressing the red blood poison.
If Xiao Yan hadn't been poisoned by the red blood poison, given his strength.
There are no dozens of moves just now.
After just a few moves, he might be defeated.
He is worthy of being the Great Zhou Qilin'er.
A genius.
He is only twenty-two years old, right? !
He is already a master at the age of twenty-two, and has such terrifying strength at the age of twenty-two. It is no wonder that His Majesty must get rid of him quickly.
This is a person who is a greater threat than the King of Xiliang.
The shadow assassin hesitated no longer.
Draw another sword.
This sword.
The cold light shocked the wind and snow, and the sword energy moved the sky.
It's like a man and a sword merging into one.
I saw a cold black light coming directly.
This sword almost made the bamboo sea lose its color...
…
Yue Shengfeng escorted Queen Wang and others to the open field safely, waited for the imperial guards from Fusi, North Town to come to support, and then fought and retreated.
Twelve are assassins.
Twelve sixth-grade masters.
And it can also form a battle formation.
He is invincible only if he is of the sixth grade.
Dozens of soldiers of the Praetorian Guards had been killed or injured.
Yue Shengfeng did not take action.
The guards around him tried their best to stop him.
The situation improved after the Royal Guards arrived, guarding the king, queen, and others, getting further and further away from the twelve assassins.
Finally, not even the sound of fighting could be heard.
Yue Shengfeng did not breathe a sigh of relief.
Still looking in all directions and listening in all directions.
Because he still can't figure out one thing, how these assassins entered Qujiang Garden, how they escaped the secret sentries and patrols of Beizhen Fusi, and hid in Beiyuan, waiting for Queen Wang. When others arrived, the assassination began.
Unless there is a secret post in Beizhen Fusi, this person has a high status and knows where Beizhen Fusi's secret post is, and he also knows the patrol time and shift change time of Beizhen Fusi's guards.
Think about it this way.
Yue Shengfeng has already begun to doubt some of the people around him.
He had to ensure that no one of the Wang, Queen and others he was guarding suffered any casualties.
After all, if something happens to them, they will be really implicated, and his guilt will not be small.
At the same time, Yue Shengfeng also began to worry about the situation in Nanyuan.
There is an assassin here in Beiyuan.
What about Nanyuan?
What if there are assassins too?
But...he can't care about that much anymore.
"Zhang Liang, Wu Jing, you two, one on the left and one on the right, speed up. We will go to the gate immediately and wait for the guards of the capital to come for support!"
Yue Shengfeng had already sent people back to the capital to report, and more than one person was sent out to prevent the assassin from intercepting him halfway.
At the same time, he also kept releasing signals to make noise, so that the surrounding guards of Beizhen Fusi could see it.
As long as they can see the movement here, they will come to inquire and investigate, and they will know that there is an assassin in the Qujiang Banquet.
You can also return to the capital in time to request support.
Good thing.
Along the way, no assassins continued to commit murders.
Yue Shengfeng successfully escorted Queen Wang and others to the gate of Qujiang Garden.
I also met General Zuo Xiaowei and Xue Yuan, the governor of Youzhou.
Yue Shengfeng stood in front of Queen Wang and others, looked at Xue Yuan, cupped his hands and said, "Yue Shengfeng has met the general."
Xue Yuan looked at Yue Shengfeng, first bowed his hands and saluted Queen Wang: "Xue Yuan has seen the empress, please move. I have been ordered to come and escort the empress back to the capital!"
Queen Wang nodded and patted Concubine Xiao Shu's hand beside her. She kept holding Queen Wang's arm tightly, not daring to relax for a moment, she was so nervous.
"Relax, General Xue is here, we are safe."
Concubine Xiao Shu felt relieved when she heard what Queen Wang said and looked at the Xiaowei camp army behind Xue Yuan.
Xue Yuan saw the Queen and the others approaching, and then asked Yue Shengfeng softly: "Commander Yue, why don't you see the imperial concubine and the others?"
Yue Shengfeng immediately replied: "The imperial concubine and the others are in Nanyuan. I will go over now and take them here!"
"General, the queen's safety is in your hands."
Xue Yuan nodded and urged: "Go quickly."
Yue Shengfeng turned around, saluted Queen Wang, and immediately rushed to Nanyuan.
Wait until you're halfway down the road.
But he saw Concubine Wu and others.
They were on their way here under the protection of two masters from Beizhen Fusi.
At the same time, next to Madam Yan, Prince Jin's Crown Prince Xiao Zhan was carrying Xiao Yan, the Crown Prince of Xiliang's back. There was still some blood on the body of Prince Jin's Crown Prince Xiao Zhan.
Yue Shengfeng hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his fists and saluted: "I failed to protect you well, please punish me."
When Concubine Wu saw Yue Shengfeng, she was still on guard and never left Shangguan Wan'er beside her.
It seemed that he was safe only when he was by her side.
"General Yue, this time, we put all our wealth and life on you, and we also believe in Beizhen Fusi's protective capabilities."
"However, assassins actually appeared over there in Nanyuan. How did they escape from the guards of Fusi in Beizhen, and how did they lurk in Nanyuan, and finally started to assassinate us while we were not being attacked. Not only that, Da Zhou's The prince of Xiliang, Xiao Yan, and Mrs. Yan were attacked by assassins. The prince of Xiliang, Xiao Yan, was seriously injured and fell into a coma. I will report everything to your majesty truthfully."
"As for your crime and how you should be punished, it is up to Your Majesty to decide."
"Now, please ask General Yue to continue to escort us back to Beijing safely."
Concubine Wu's words sounded like she was blaming Yue Shengfeng, but in fact, she was saying something nice for him.
After all, it is true that an assassin appeared in Nanyuan.
And coincidentally, as the chief guard this time, he failed to stop the assassins in Nanyuan and protect them.
This is a dereliction of duty.
It's easy to be turned a deaf ear by these imperial wives.
Concubine Wu's report was truthful, that is to say, it was as it should be, without exaggeration or personal resentment.
Yue Shengfeng naturally understood the meaning of Concubine Wu's words, and immediately bowed deeply and said: "Yue was not well guarded and frightened you all, so I am willing to be punished!"
"However, since Yue is here, I won't let you be frightened at all today."
"If the assassins come, Yue will fight to the death. If they want to hurt you and the empress, they have no choice but to step over Yue's body!"
Finished.
He stood up and extended his hand to signal.
"Empress, everyone, please come back to Beijing with me!"
