Chapter 499 Assassination
The moonlight is melting, and in the center of the lake are nearly ten two-storey gorgeous painting boats lined up, with brilliant lights and radiant lights above them.

The light is reflected in the lake, and the moonlight complements each other, hazy and gorgeous.

In the distance, you can also hear the faint singing and music on the painting boat, faintly coming from the moonlit night.

The boat came from the most famous brothels in Yingdu, each of which selected the most outstanding lady to compete for the title of oiran in the Shangyuan Festival.

Qinqi calligraphy and painting, dance music and singing voice, all can be compared.

It's the festive season, when beauties are performing, those princes and nobles are naturally happy to come here to have fun.Therefore, there are many boats on the lake going there.

Xiao Lingjiang's painting left the shore and slowly rowed towards the center of the lake.

This lake is the largest lake in Yingdu. It is called Jianqiu Lake. It has a wide water area. If you want to paddle from the shore to the center of the lake, it will take some time.

However, just halfway through, the hull of the ship suddenly shook, and then stopped.

The tea in his hand poured out under the turmoil, and splashed on Xuan Heng's body. Xuan Heng looked at the dense water color on his robe, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Xiao Lingjiang raised his eyebrows slightly, and asked loudly: "What happened?"

He Zheng came in from the outside, bowed and said: "Princess Hui, it was someone else's boat that accidentally bumped into us."

Xiao Lingjiang hummed: "What's the problem?"

"This subordinate seems to be fine." He Zheng said.

However, not long after he finished speaking, there was a commotion outside again, as if there was a quarrel.

Xiao Lingjiang frowned: "What's wrong?"

After He Zheng went out to investigate, he hurriedly came to report: "The other party insisted that our boat bumped into them, and clamored to ask the princess to go out and apologize in person. Do you think you want to reveal your identity?"

Xiao Lingjiang didn't want to make a big splash on this trip, and their boat looked ordinary, compared to the gorgeous boats of those aristocratic families, it was really not conspicuous enough, presumably that person was deliberately bullying others by taking advantage of his own power.

"Oh?" Xiao Lingjiang raised his brows slightly, "It's obviously my fault, but I want to beat it up instead. I'm going to see which one is so arrogant."

She looked sideways at Xuan Heng: "I'll come as soon as I go, you sit first."

Xuan Heng nodded: "Okay."

Xiao Lingjiang took He Zheng and Qingzhu out of the boat, and when Xu Shi saw her coming, the noise outside finally calmed down.

However, it was too quiet.

Xuan Heng frowned.

The boat was not big, so naturally there were not many people on board, it was just He Zheng Qingzhu brought by Xiao Lingjiang, two boatmen, and two maidservants beside him.

Now that Xiao Lingjiang took people out, only he and the servant girl were left inside.

The freshly brewed tea in the stove is steaming hot.In the curling white mist, the voices outside seemed to be getting farther and farther away.Those small human voices and the ethereal singing on the distant painting boat seemed to be isolated by a thick wall.

"wrong!"

He threw the teacup in his hand and missed the sword that was coming straight at him.

But even so, the biting sword energy still cut off a strand of long hair on his sideburns.

When L came to carry the sword, Xuan Heng slightly tilted his waist, waved his palm on the table, and the wheelchair under him took him back quickly.

At the same time, the two maidservants beside him drew their soft swords from their waists and went up to him.

Being able to choose a maidservant to accompany him since he was a child, he is naturally not an ordinary person, and his martial arts can be regarded as a top-notch master.The two sword swings are perfectly matched, if it is an ordinary assassin, not to mention being defeated by the two of them, it will be difficult for them to take care of other things.

But the masked man in black in front of him was very human. With every move, he forced the two maidservants to their knees.

With a wave of the long sword in his hand, a maid was sent flying out by the sword energy, and hit the wall of the ship room heavily.Immediately after turning her wrist slightly, the other maid was scratched by his sword energy before she could react, and her whole body was forced back again and again by the sword edge.

The servant girl gritted her teeth and raised her sword to block it, but she saw the man suddenly withdraw and retreat, turning into a stream of black light and rushing towards Xuan Heng.

"Lang Jun!" The servant girl's eyes widened.

This sword pointed directly at his vitals, carrying endless killing intent.

Xuan Heng's eyes narrowed suddenly, and he slapped the armrests on both sides of the wheelchair with his hands, and he flew up, narrowly avoiding his sword.

The man in black held a sword flower, took the opportunity to withdraw his sword, and raised his eyebrows in surprise as he watched him.

I saw Xuan Heng, who was originally sitting in a wheelchair, unexpectedly stood aside, with such a quick reaction, it was not as bad as usual.

If you can't pretend, then don't pretend.

Killing intent flashed in Xuan Heng's eyes, he took out two killing talismans from his sleeves and threw them at the man in black.

He was weak since he was a child, and the martial arts he learned were only the body skills for escaping his life, but he was somewhat proficient in the mystical arts.

Although he was inferior to Xiao Lingjiang in spells, these two killing talismans to control the enemy were drawn by him with all his heart.

No matter how strong the opponent's martial arts are, so what?
He narrowed his eyes slightly, but he saw the opponent blocking him with his sword. At that moment, the aura of the man in black seemed to change accordingly.

In the awe-inspiring sword intent, the killing talisman shattered in response to the aura, turning into ashes and falling slowly at his feet.

One sword breaks the law.

Xuan Heng's eyes shrank, it was Pei You, the eldest son of Zhenbei Prince!

Sure enough, today's invitation is a game.

When he received Xiao Lingjiang's post, he was suspicious.But he knew better that he had always shown interest in Xiao Lingjiang, but today he was invited by her but rejected her, which would only make her more suspicious.

So he came.

Just now Xiao Lingjiang mentioned the person who set up the octagonal glazed mirror in his conversation, and he suspected that she was trying to test it.But as long as she doesn't show her flaws, she can only give up if she can't find any evidence.

But he didn't expect that Xiao Lingjiang directly found Pei You to pretend to be an assassin to attack him, forcing him to get up and dodge.

Xuan Heng put away the surprised look on his face, and asked with a smile: "Pei Shizi, I don't know where I offended you, so that you drew your sword at each other?"

Seeing that his identity had been exposed, Pei You simply didn't hide it. He pulled off the black scarf underneath and said coldly, "I don't really want to offend you. It's just that you don't like your face."

Xuan Heng laughed lightly, and touched his cheek: "Could it be that the prince is jealous of my face? My face looks better, and I always like it..."

"It's obviously Princess Yong'an today, but the prince suddenly appeared here and drew his sword at me. Could it be that he has some thoughts about the princess?"

and also?
Pei You's face was covered with a thin layer of frost, and he snorted coldly: "With your face, you can't be my jealousy."

His hand holding the sword moved slightly, as if he was about to raise the sword again.

Xuan Heng's eyes shivered: "Your Majesty has acted so recklessly, so you are not afraid of being too clear and prosecuted, and you are not afraid of the sage knowing?"
