Jinyi Night Walk

Chapter 263 The Assassin Without Assassination

The mansion of King Yan in Jinling is in the south of the city. This area not only houses the mansions of the princes, but also the mansions of princes and ministers. Most of them choose this place to build their mansions, not only because it is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Qinhuai, Also because it is the closest to going up from here.Zhu Yuanzhang is a workaholic. The daily court meeting is regardless of the weather, whether it is cold or hot. If you live too far away, you have to get up early, and you can do it every day or two. After a long time, these elders will not be able to bear it.

As soon as you arrive at this area, it is obvious that there are tall buildings and vast buildings. The buildings have their own styles, but from the color e, they are all white tiles and white walls, with various ua grasses and trees interspersed. The whole alley is gorgeous, tidy and rich. For bi people, there is a stone archway within a few steps, and when you look up, there are two lion guards with red copper rings, which shows that this place is different.

The night was deep and the stars were sparse. Xia Xun, Chen Dong, and Ye An quietly sneaked to the side of King Yan's mansion, and climbed to the high wall with flying claws.

Chen Dong and Ye An's words and deeds seem to be nothing special, but once they act, Xia Xun can't help but be impressed by their skills. The two of them are very agile and flexible, and they are not inferior to him. Even better than that.Xia Xun didn't know what their public identities were, but he knew that this was by no means the first time they were ordered to kill people. No matter how much training they had, if there were no actual combat drills, it would never be possible for them to have such a calm and composed attitude.

Night, quiet.The lights on the Qinhuai River are still brightly lit, and countless people are in the midst of singing and dancing in their dreams, but these stretches of tall houses and courtyards seem to have completely fallen asleep.

Leaning on the high wall, condescending, the tall buildings in the palace are all dark and dark, but their outlines can still be seen clearly. Xia Xun pretended to observe, but in fact he was secretly thinking about something.

This means meeting an indecisive monarch like Zhu Yunqi and a fame-loving rotten Confucian like Huang Zicheng. Otherwise, no matter what the world thinks about him, he will kill Zhu Lao Si directly. After a few months, who will care about this matter? Woolen cloth.Perhaps future generations will write a note for them in the book, but is the opinion of future generations really that important?

Zhu Laosi's return to Beijing this time is obviously a suicide attempt, but Zhu Yunwen's monarchs and ministers don't have the courage, and everyone loves Yu so much that he insists on packaging himself as a saint, becoming a bitch and setting up a memorial archway, just because he has already controlled him A big dragon that took over the whole situation was suffocated to death.

"My lord, the soldiers patrolling in the side yard will pass by one team in half a stick of incense. There are five people in each team. It's easy to deal with them, but as long as there is one result that is not clear enough, let him shout, our plan will come to an end." It's going to fail."

Chen Dong observed quietly for a while, and suggested to Xia Xun: "Based on my humble position, we can go there in batches, one person at a time, and gather behind that clump of flowers after passing. This is the side courtyard of the Wangfu. King Yan should live in it." In the house behind the main hall, after we sneak in and try to get closer, King Yan's residence must be more heavily guarded, based on this, it is not difficult to identify."

Ye An on the other side also lowered his voice and suggested: "My lord, when Mo arrives in front of King Yan's bedroom, please ask your lord and Xiaowei Chen to make some noise to distract the guards of the Wangfu, and let the humble official do the work. The humble official's blowing arrow is to spit out the drama." Poisonous, see the blood seal the throat, unless King Yan can hold his breath and never show his face, otherwise, as long as the humble job's arrow can scratch his skin a little, he will die!"

Xia Xun shook his head and said, "It's hard to strike, and it's even harder to escape. The guards in Prince Yan's mansion are too strict. It seems that King Yan has raised his vigilance against the court."

Chen Dong said casually: "I am a slayer trained by Lord Qianshi. Life and death are ordinary things. If I can kill a prince, it is worth dying!"

Xia Xun glanced at him and said, "I'm afraid of sacrificing for no reason, but if I can't fulfill my lord's orders, then my death will be worthless. Chen Dong, go around to the opposite side, sneak in from the other side, and try to get the dining room Ignite."

Chen Dong hesitated and said: "My lord, do you want to divert the tiger away from the mountain? The first duty of the palace guards is to protect the safety of the prince. I'm afraid they won't be fooled."

Xia Xun smiled lightly and said, "I know. The wind is blowing from that direction tonight. If the fire rages together, even if the guards guarding King Yan's dormitory will not move, the guards in other places will also have to move. We can't just sit back and watch the palace burn to the ground. Besides, if the fire burns together, the whole alley will be destroyed, our chances will be even greater, and it will be easier to escape. If I bring you out, I will bring you out as much as possible. , remember, as long as you do things with me in the future, you are not allowed to make sacrifices lightly."

"Yes!"

Chen Dong glanced at him unexpectedly, his eyes slightly moved.That's right, they are dead warriors. From ia to adulthood, in the training they received, the most instilled idea is to die in order to achieve their goals. They have received this kind of education since they can remember. They have already formed a kind of almost instinct for death acceptance.

But although they are not afraid of death, they are still living people after all. If they can not die, of course they still want to live. When they performed missions before, they received instructions that they would do whatever it takes to complete the mission. Xun's fresh remarks made these cold-blooded assassins have a new understanding of the boss they met for the first time.

Xia Xun also instructed: "Be careful, that's the limelight. If there are vicious dogs in the house, it will inevitably smell you. You have to act fast. Once the fire is lit, your mission will be accomplished. Immediately get out, find a place to hide, and after three days, if there is no abnormality, then go to reply to the adults."

"As ordered!"

This time, Chen Dong agreed very happily, he quickly lowered to the ground along the rope, and quickly disappeared into the night.

They originally had a more feasible plan. According to their proposal, they would clear King Yan's itinerary in advance, and use startled horses to break up King Yan's guard of honor.With their two flawless civilian appearances, Xia Xun believed that their chances of success must be extremely high.But the order he received was "only fail, no success". Even without Luo Kedi's order, he was about to do so, so he refused, very "self-willed" in refusing.

And these two experienced killers are not dissatisfied at all. There is another idea that they have been indoctrinated from ia, and that is obedience, unconditional obedience.So they obediently followed Xia Xun's instructions and came to Yan Wang's mansion, even though they knew that this was a dead end, they calmly made some suggestions to Xia Xun as much as possible.

Xia Xun felt that the actions he had taken in advance were correct, and such two people should not be allowed to make unnecessary sacrifices.

Xia Xun turned to Ye An and said, "Give me the blowing arrow."

Ye An was a little surprised, and said, "My lord, it's better to start with the humble staff."

Xia Xun said: "You are responsible for diverting away the guards of King Yan's bedroom. This task is actually more dangerous than assassinating King Yan. I have your blowing arrows in my hand and a box of continuous-firing crossbows, all of which have been tempered. It is highly poisonous, unless the king of Yan does not show his head, he will surely die. When the king of Yan is alive, the guards will go all out. If the king of Yan is dead, who will they work for? So, this move seems dangerous , it is actually safer than distracting the enemy.”

Ye An had no choice but to give the blowing arrows to Xia Xun, and said: "My lord, there are three blowpipes, and each of the blowing pipes hides one blowing arrow. The end with the hoop is where the blowing arrows are. The blowing arrows are poisoned, so be careful." !"

Xia Xun chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I can use this thing!"

A fire broke out in the south chamber of King Yan's Mansion. It was March weather, and the night wind was strong. After a while, the flames shot up into the night sky, reflecting half of the mansion in red.

"It's not good, Prince Yan's mansion is in trouble!"

The watchman who was beating and knocking on the street was the first to yell, and then most of the guards inside and outside the Yanwang Mansion rushed to the east chamber to fight the fire. Xia Xun and Ye An hid in the dark and could see clearly. There was a guard Although there was a moment of panic outside the most fortified palace, the guards did not leave their posts. Instead, they took out their weapons and scanned their surroundings vigilantly.

"It's here!"

Ye An, who was hanging upside down on the golden hooks under the eaves of the palace, threw himself forward with both eyes indulgently, slid down against the smooth and round palace pillars, swung his knife and slashed at the guards of King Yan's mansion who were caught off guard. Mu, who was staring at the ua bushes in the courtyard, couldn't dodge in time, each was stabbed, and fell away screaming in pain, Ye An didn't stop for a moment, and jumped towards the window of the opposite hall.

"Catch assassins!"

The guards waiting outside the dormitory swarmed up, and a tall warrior in half-length leather armor rushed forward in the slanting thorns. He seemed to be the leader of the guards, with a burly figure and quick movements. His leather armor gave off a cold iron-like light, which made his burly but not unusually tall body feel as solid as a mountain and as heavy as a mountain, causing a strong psychological pressure.

"drink!"

A slash to the head, like a horse training, was reflected by the light, like a bolt of lightning splitting the night sky, Ye An was startled, he didn't dare to raise the knife to meet him, his foot slipped, and he slid out against the smooth blue brick ground Three feet, avoiding the knife.The man turned the saber around, without giving him a chance to breathe, and slashed at the waist again, with such an indomitable momentum, as if even a mountain in front of him could be cut in half by him.

At the same time, seven or eight guards rushed over like wolves and tigers, and they were about to form a siege.Ye An was secretly surprised: "The guard of Yanshan really deserves his reputation. If he doesn't leave now, he will stay here."

He immediately slashed and fell, a slanting willow, like a smoke rocket, crookedly entered the bushes, rolled on the spot, and escaped like lightning through the weeds and trees in the courtyard: "Ye is responsible That's it, the rest will be handed over to Yang Baihu!"

Several Yan Wangfu guards followed closely...

Xia Xun, who was leaning on the eaves, took a deep breath: "It's my turn!"

Ask for a guaranteed monthly pass in October! Ra! ~!
