Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 173 Assassin
"Could it be that you dare not?" Mrs. Yang said with a playful smile.

"Why don't you dare!" Newton was so excited that he couldn't hold back his face.I have boasted in front of everyone, how dare I go back on my word.

"Then let's start!" Mrs. Yang picked up the bowl and swallowed.

Newton had no choice but to drink with his head up, gurgling down his stomach.The other scientists who were summoned from the West stared dumbfounded at their superiors blushing and filling their stomachs.Distressed!

"Ugh—" Halfway through the drink, Newton couldn't swallow any more, so he vomited into the barrel he had prepared long ago.

Although Mrs. Yang was struggling, she still finished a bowl of white wine and slammed the bowl on the table, "I told you a long time ago that you can't do it, so you will owe me ten taels of silver, haha .”

"You—vomit—" Newton was about to reply when the uncomfortable feeling in his stomach swept over again, and he vomited again, his eyes were red.

"People in your army don't be too arrogant, let us come and drink with you!" The scientists and engineers of the Natural Science Department saw their superiors being poured out, and they stood up one after another to compete with Mrs. Yang at the wine table.

"How many people from the Academy of Sciences bully others? Let's come too!" Seeing the people from the Department of Natural Sciences surrounding Mrs. Yang, several army and navy officers couldn't help but go to make trouble.

So the two sides couldn't fight each other, and the people who couldn't chat with each other even split wine at this time and yelled in the hall.Not long after, even the civil servants were involved, and the sky was dark.Chu Yun couldn't help but be fed alcohol, and when the alcohol came up, he would feel ecstatic, and it was even more difficult to control himself.

"Yu Cheng, you come too." The drunk Chu Yun called Yu Cheng who was the guard.

"My lord, I need to protect your safety. I must never touch this wine." Yu Cheng smelled the mellow aroma of the wine and couldn't help but feel greedy. He couldn't help it, but he said resolutely.

"There are hundreds of guards outside. Nothing will happen. Come on, if you don't drink, you will disobey the military order." Chu Yun said in a floating tone.

"This...then, the subordinates would be more respectful than obedient... just drink a small cup... a small cup..." Yu Cheng took the glass and warned himself.

After a while, Yu Chengcheng, who was not able to drink well, was poured on the dinner table by everyone, and he snored, shaking the sky...

"This guy can't do it." Chu Yun and others laughed.

The nerves that had been tensed for so long finally had a chance to relax, and Chu Yun and the others drank to their heart's content.

Compared with the hustle and bustle of Chu Yun's mansion, the courtyard of a Han landlord looked particularly chilling, and a couplet was posted at the door.

Because the Liao army initially forcibly purchased the land from the landlords, the lives of these landlords were much worse than before.But, with a big house and some compensation from the land confiscated by the Liao army, life should not be too bad, and there should be a firecracker and fireworks in the new year.However, a group of unexpected guests came to the landlord's house.

"Gentlemen, it's a big holiday. You don't go home for the New Year, why do you come to our place?" A landlord in his 60s looked at a few strangers at the dinner table who were not polite at all, and asked with a slightly trembling tone. .

"Old man, there are so many reasons why we Jurchens do things. You just entertain us obediently, and we will leave when we finish our work." A stranger said.

"Then when will the masters be able to do good things?" The landlord asked tentatively again.

The stranger glared at the landlord, causing the landlord's stooped figure to shrink back in fright.

"If you know too much, you will die sooner, you know? It doesn't matter if you die, an old man buried in the earth. If it hurts your son, daughter-in-law and grandson, hehe, you can figure it out yourself!" Put the pieces of meat in your mouth.

"As long as everyone spares the old man's family, you can stay as long as you want, and you must be greeted with good wine and food." The landlord said quickly.

"The food and drink are really shabby, at least we need to prepare more, you know?" the stranger said dissatisfied.

"Yes yes yes..." The landlord nodded obediently.

After a few strangers satiated with wine and food, they came to the guest room prepared for them by the landlord.

"This old man won't report the crime to the government, will he?" A Jurchen asked while biting a toothpick, "Do you want me to kill him?"

"His family was imprisoned in Jianzhou by us. If we die, his family will be buried with us. Do you think he dares? Han people are not afraid of anything, but they respect blood. Threatening him with this is more effective than killing him. " Another Jurchen said, "What's more, if you kill him, no one will take care of our daily life, and we will be exposed more easily!"

"This time, we came to Jinzhou to assassinate Chu Yun under the order of His Majesty. We kept our names incognito and worked day and night. We don't know when we will find a good opportunity."

"I heard that Chu Yun's mansion held a big banquet. He must be drunk at this time. Why don't you sneak into the mansion tonight and kill him on the spot?"

"Idiot, do you watch too much drama of the Han people? Are you the incompetent people in the Liao army? They have already deployed layers around the mansion, and their people are all within a radius of [-] meters, even if they are ordinary people. When we step into that area, we will be watched by dozens of pairs of eyes. It is possible for us to infiltrate the mansion? And if there is a disturbance, how can we get out of the army near them?" The leading Jurchen scolded his head and face road.

"However, Chu Yun usually comes in and out with a large army guarding him. It is very difficult for us to find a chance to assassinate him." The Jurchen who was scolded said aggrievedly.

"Don't forget, this time we have He Bala, the number one expert in Ouchi. He Bala once fought a tiger with bare hands. If we seize the opportunity to let He Bala and Chu Yun get close, Chu Yun will definitely die! "The leading Jurchen said.

The man known as Hebala was a muscular man, his head was silent and he was concentrating on paving a piece of wood with a knife.

"Yes, yes, with He Bala here, we can definitely crush Chu Yun to death like a chicken, and completely solve our serious problem." The other Jurchens seemed to trust He Bala's skills very much, and they couldn't help letting go. heart.

"I've already planned it out. We didn't have much time to do it on the Zhengdan Festival. But after a while, it will be the Shangyuan Festival of the Han people. On this festival, people will go out to enjoy lanterns and guess riddles. At that time, fish and dragons will be mixed. If Chu Yun travels in casual clothes, This is our perfect opportunity to assassinate him! Taking advantage of this time, we need to be familiar with the terrain of Jinzhou City, so that we can strike at the most suitable time, kill him on the spot in time, and then evacuate safely!" The leading Jurchens vigorously He tapped the wooden table with his finger.

"The Han people really have a lot of festivals." A Jurchen murmured, "Could it be that they want to give themselves a reason to take a few more days off?"
