Chapter 257 [Traitor and Assassin]

Liu Jin walked towards Eunuch Guo, and the two Habayashi guards followed immediately, obviously they were ordered to protect little Liu Jin.

Eunuch Guo said in a sharp voice: "The eldest princess has an order. Only Liu Jin will be brought to the audience, and everyone else will stay away." After speaking, he turned around, flicked his whisk, and walked away.

"You don't need to follow me." Liu Jin called Tui Yu Lin Wei, a child, naturally he would not feel that this danger was hidden in this beautiful spring time.

Liu Jin followed behind Eunuch Guo, one after the other, walking eastward.

Princess Yi leaned over, frowned slightly, and said softly, "Is this Liu Jin?"

Xue Poye held the bow and arrow tightly, looked at the receding figure, and asked, "Don't you know him? He is the grandson of Lord Gan."

"I heard that the grandson of the dry prince is called Liu Jin. But I haven't seen him yet, so he is." Princess Yi also looked at the background of Liu Jinyuan's departure, and sighed: "I heard that the child's mother came here very early. God."

"Oh!" Xue Poye frowned and said, "Shi Zifei?"

Princess Yi shook her head and said: "A few years ago, people were not allowed to talk about this matter. Even now, I am afraid not many people know about it. Liu Jin only entered the palace when he was two years old." Looking around, he did not hide anything from Xue Po Ye, said in a low voice: "I heard that Liu Jin is the illegitimate son of the prince's son, who was originally unknown, but the princess concubine has never given birth, so she took it back to the palace. Treat it as your own."

Xue Poye was startled, and murmured: "Bastard child?"

Princess Yi saw Xue Poye's strange expression, and asked softly, "Master, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? I'll ask the imperial doctor to show you."

Xue Poye shook his head and said, "I'm fine. By the way, your strength has improved a lot. It's very good. If you work harder, when you can lift fifty catties, we will start regular archery training."

Princess Yi was overjoyed.

Although Xiao Shitou was walking the horse, Xue Poye did not go over to speak. The master-student relationship between himself and Xiao Shitou is a secret relationship, so it is not easy to reveal it in front of others. Now, he didn't show the slightest excitement or other expressions, he was calm and composed, as if he didn't know him, Xue Poye saw it in his eyes, and deeply felt that this son had a deep temperament and was very scheming.

Eunuch Guo led Liu Jin through the flowery garden.

"Are you the eunuch in the palace?" Liu Jin asked loudly from behind: "I'm rare. There are many guards in my house, but there are no eunuchs. I heard that people like you are missing something."

Eunuch Guo's face twitched, and his arms moved stiffly, but he hummed vaguely after all.

"May I ask you something?" Liu Jin grabbed Eunuch Guo's lapel and said with a smile, "Show me?"

Eunuch Guo broke free from his hand and said in a sharp voice: "Liu Jin, our family is taking you to meet the eldest princess. There is no delay. If the time is delayed, of course I deserve to die, but you are also guilty."

Liu Jin curled her lips and said disdainfully: "Don't scare me with Huanggu. Grandpa said that Huanggu has a good temper, so I definitely won't blame me. This time I came to Liuheyuan, Huanggu invited me to play, so there is no blame My reason."

Eunuch Guo frowned and stepped forward faster.

Not far away, you can see the majestic Chongge, with high floors, surrounded by Lin Palaces facing each other, Zhaozhao Fudao Yinyu, green pines blowing, jade railings, golden beast faces, and colorful heads.

There is a jade-faced memorial archway in front of it. On it, there is a dragon and a wind, it is exquisitely made, and it is engraved with "Chanjuan Garden"!

Although along the way, there are always spies lurking in the dark, but when they actually came to the Chanjuan Garden where the eldest princess lived temporarily, the surrounding security was much weaker. Even if there were a few Habayashi guards guarding it, everyone knew that The real guard is in the outer courtyard behind the archway, where there is the old monster, Eunuch Qin.

"Is the aunt inside?" Liu Jin stared at the tall jade archway and asked Eunuch Guo.

Eunuch Guo looked at the jade archway, and moved his arm again. At this moment, a Habayashi guard turned out from behind the jade archway, holding a spear in his hand.

He came out extremely abruptly, as if he had been lying in ambush behind the archway.

"You are Liu Jin?" Habayashi Wei said coldly: "Are you a boy?"

Liu Jin was startled, and opened his mouth. Seeing the vicious Habayashi guard, he couldn't help saying: "Ah, I... I am Liu Jin!"

Habayashi Wei nodded and said: "Okay!" He suddenly raised his spear, threw it out, and stabbed Liu Jin violently.

This change was unexpected, and the distance was so close. Seeing that the long spear was about to stab Liu Jin through.

Liu Jin was so frightened that he couldn't move, his face turned pale in an instant, and he watched the spear stabbing him, and he didn't even have the intention to hide.

Although the nearby Habayashi guards were not short of strong men, this accident was something that no one had ever thought about. Even if they wanted to save him, it was too late. It seemed that Liu Jin was really going to die under this shot.

Or Liu Jin couldn't imagine why such a powerful assassin appeared behind the jade archway.

His spear throwing is strong, but his heart is even stronger. He determined the target and struck without hesitation without much consideration. Even after stabbing Liu Jin to death, he himself seemed to have not let go of the fact that he had to be buried with him. on heart.

Of course, he couldn't get out of the way after stabbing Liu Jin to death. If he assassinated Liu Jin in front of the eldest princess' bedroom, the result would be a dead end.

"choke"!

There was a sound of metal hitting.

A bat-like figure lightly landed in front of Liu Jin. The black robe was like wings, and it easily resisted the spear. In the nick of time, Liu Jin was saved.

……

"Jia Dao was born on Lunya Island." Standing in the hall, Ding Yi, the commander of the Habayashi Guard, said cautiously: "His uncle served in the Bazhou camp for 13 years and was appointed as the former military commander. Jia Dao was 13 years old. He joined the army, and when he was 23 years old, he was already the commander of the Chinese army and won the support of the soldiers. Six years ago, he was 27 years old, and the Yubayashi battalion expanded to 500 people. When the guard dispatched troops, he made him the deputy capital commander of the guard army, and protected the princess under my command."

Speaking of this, Ding Yi's forehead already seeped a lot of sweat.

"Bazhou?" The Eldest Princess Liu frowned.

The Batman was already sitting beside Eunuch Qin. Although he covered most of his face, part of his green beard was still exposed, and he had a wide mouth that was deeply sunken.

He exudes a very strange smell.

"Bazhou is too poor, no one wants that place." Batman said hoarsely.

"According to what you said, Jia Dao has no background and has nothing to do with those people. Why did he assassinate Liu Jin?" The eldest princess stared at Ding Yi and said slowly: "Although I know that there are nails around me, I also know The archway is the weakest place and the best place to attack, but I never thought that it would be Jia Dao." She sighed again, and said softly, "You guys are really giving me a headache."

Eunuch Qin suddenly said: "Although Jia Dao can't point out who is behind, they have already made a move."

"You said that they would move in the open and in the dark, maybe this is their action in the dark." The eldest princess still had a faint smile on her face.

"This is just the beginning." Eunuch Qin said in a low voice, "Jia Dao is just an introduction, and the real action has just begun."

"Such a beautiful courtyard, why did you bring these conspiratorial assassinations here?" The eldest princess frowned, looking like she was sick, and said softly, "Jia Dao's body is still buried."

Ding Yi agreed, and couldn't help looking at the Batman with a hint of awe from the corner of his eye.

The moment Jia Dao missed, he immediately broke his own neck. The ruthlessness was still shocking, but the appearance of the Batman out of thin air made Jia Dao's shot that he was determined to win come to naught, which was also very shocking.

The Batman pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Jingli already knows that the princess will not go back, so I can only move here. I think the nails they planted around the princess will gradually emerge."

"I just hope he's fine." The eldest princess said faintly with a hint of rosiness on her face.

The Batman said respectfully: "Princess, please rest assured about the matter in Beijing. I will do my best to ensure the safety of Ling Si's son-in-law." He knew that the "he" that the eldest princess said must be the son-in-law. Her husband and Princess Yi father.

"Then I will trouble you." The eldest princess glanced at Batman and said softly, "I am not worried that someone will know your whereabouts, but you must go back now. Without you in the capital, my heart will never be at ease."

Batman stood up, bowed, just as he appeared, and left like a ghost.

After Ding Yi also went out, the eldest princess sighed: "We want to use this trick to lure out the nails, but they are not just trying, maybe they already knew that with Jia Dao, it is impossible to do any harm to Liu Jin , but they did it anyway, do you think they want something too?"

"They want to see if there are other people around you who can protect you besides me." Eunuch Qin replied immediately.

The eldest princess changed her posture, still graceful, and sighed: "Then they succeeded."

"Although they don't know who the bat is, they know that there is a bat by your side." Eunuch Qin said slowly, "So they will be more cautious in the future, and they will definitely hit every hit."

"You mean the bat came out too late?" The eldest princess stared at Eunuch Qin.

Eunuch Qin shook his head: "He didn't know in advance that it was our trick to lure out the nails, and he didn't know that I had already made preparations. He just wanted to rescue Liu Jin. No wonder he was there." He paused and coughed. After a couple of voices, he said: "Actually, this is not a bad thing, at least they will be very afraid of this side, and some things that shouldn't be done will not be done lightly, but it will save a lot of trouble."

The eldest princess suddenly took out a letter from her bosom, took out the paper with not much writing inside, looked at it slightly, then handed it to Eunuch Qin, and lazily said: "We are going to add people to the post, I will clear it soon. Those nails that make me ache all over."

Eunuch Qin took the note, and there were only two words on it: "Don't move"!

This is a secret decree, a secret decree conveyed by His Majesty the Emperor through a secret passage through bats.

His Majesty the Emperor gave the Eldest Princess the clearest instructions, so the Eldest Princess will continue to stay in Liuheyuan with peace of mind, not affected by any factors, and the purpose is only to protect the boy, remove all internal and external obstacles, and finally hand it over to His Majesty the Emperor A complete boy.

Although the wind and waves are surging in the dark here, the eldest princess and Eunuch Qin understand that the wind and waves in the capital surrounded by thick and simple city walls are bigger than here.

This secret decree was quickly reduced to ashes in the palm of Eunuch Qin.

"By the way, I almost forgot someone." The eldest princess giggled, "That Xue Shitou seems to have been very unhappy these two days. Could it be that the delicious food and drink here can't keep him?"

Eunuch Qin didn't speak.

The eldest princess continued: "He seemed to help you that day."

Eunuch Qin nodded solemnly: "If it wasn't for his three arrows, I think I would be injured too."

In an invisible duel at Nanyumen, Xue Poye shot three arrows in total, one arrow was controlled by the old Taoist Xuanyang, and the other arrow was controlled by Eunuch Qin, which became a confrontation. Xue Poye's three arrows were like a scale weighing two. When he was looking for two exact items, he put something on one of the items, causing the balance to be broken, Xuanyang Laodao was disturbed by sharp arrows, and lost to Eunuch Qin.

Undoubtedly, in that battle, Xuanyang Taoist must have suffered internal injuries to some extent, but without Xue Poye's arrow, it is really unknown who will die. Maybe Eunuch Qin will be severely injured in the end. From a perspective, Xue Poye really helped Eunuch Qin.

"He is very courageous and good at archery. Although he may not be a great talent, I think he can still do something." The eldest princess said thoughtfully.

The palace lanterns began to light up, and the beams carved with gold and jade were shining brightly.

"Xue Shishitou, little Shitou!" The eldest princess chuckled, "So there are so many stones in the yard."

It turned out that she also knew that Xiao Shitou and Xue Poye had come together.

Of course she knows!

After all, she is the owner of this place now, and she will definitely know some things that should be known. Even if some things are hidden in the dark for a while, as long as they are under her nose, they will slowly surface.

This assassination incident, like a gust of wind, came and went quickly. Due to the eldest princess's deliberate concealment, the news was not leaked, and few people knew about it.

The client, Liu Jin, was already sick from fright, lying on the bed sweating and swaying. The experience this time may make his character restrain a lot in the future.

Even Xue Poye didn't know that there was an assassination incident in front of the jade archway in Chanjuan Garden.

Although Xiao Shitou knew that Liu Jin was suddenly ill and his speech was slurred, and he was diagnosed and treated by an imperial doctor under the personal supervision of Ding Yi, the commander of the Yulin Camp, but he never expected that Liu Jin would almost die.

In this world, even around him, there are always things that he can't believe and imagine.

Fortunately, he goes with everything.

Just like the little stone sat in front of him tonight and smoothly ran through the energy and blood flow in the Book of Ecstasy, he was shocked at first, then surprised, then calm, and finally he accepted it bravely.

He accepts a ridiculous reality.

The 11-year-old Xiaoshi could easily do things that he couldn't do by himself.

"Master, there is no stomachache like you said." Xiao Shitou said seriously, "Did you read it wrong?"

Xue Poye showed a pensive look, and asked: "Then you practiced Qi according to the book of ecstasy, how did you react?"

"It's very comfortable." Xiao Shitou shared his experience: "Every time I run it, it's like taking a bath, er, it's very comfortable, as if all the dirty things on my body have been washed away."

Xue Poye said to himself: "Could it be time to take a bath?" This was of course a joke, so he let the little stone breathe again while closing the doors and windows.

This time, Xiaoshi practiced in a very standardized manner.

Xue Poye watched Xiao Shitou's skin turn pale when he was lucky, and a red bright spot appeared clearly in front of Xiao Shitou's clothes through Xiao Shitou's clothes, flying around like a clueless fly on Xiao Shitou's body.

Of course, Xue Poye knew that this was not a seemingly random scurrying, the route the red dot passed was all described by the cobweb-like meridians and luck on the page of the book of ecstasy.

After a week of luck, Xiao Shitou was indeed sweating profusely, as if he had taken a bath, his face was much rosier, and he looked like a newborn baby.

Xue Poye sighed and said: "It seems that this booklet is specially designed for you, not only does it require your blood to show the picture, even the Qi training method described in it can only be practiced by you, you must cherish it. "

"Master, you can practice again." Xiao Shitou handed the booklet to Xue Poye, and said expectantly: "Maybe it will be done today."

For Xiao Shitou's generosity, Xue Poye was still moved from the bottom of his heart, for giving such a treasure to him without hesitation, this child must have extremely trusted him.

"Little Stone, this is something your parents left you, so you have to cherish it, I don't think your parents would like such things to fall into the hands of others." Xue Poye said seriously.

Xiao Shitou shook his head and said, "Master, if you don't practice, I won't practice either." He looked very stubborn and determined.

Xue Poye knew that this child was a person who could do what he said, and he was really embarrassed. After all, it was someone else's property. If he practiced it himself, it would be a bit inappropriate, but he looked like Xiao Shitou. He looked like he didn't practice, so he had to say: "Actually, it's not that the master doesn't practice. Maybe you are the only one who can practice this kind of kung fu. If I practice this kind of kung fu, maybe I will backfire and hurt myself."

Xiao Shitou rolled his eyes and said with a chuckle: "Master, you practice first, I have a method."

"What way?"

"You get lucky first." Xiao Shitou's eyes flickered, as if he had really thought of something.

Xue Poye had no choice but to sit up straight and move the trace of true qi in his body according to the blood line on the paper. At first, it went smoothly. Seeing that the real qi was transported to the lower abdomen again, the burning sensation hit again, and it was about to stop. , I suddenly felt a burst of coldness in my lower abdomen, and the burning intention stopped for a moment, and just like that, the true energy rushed past, and the following lines followed the blood line smoothly. In less than half an hour, a Zhou Tian was transported completely.

Xue Poye only felt reborn, his whole body was refreshed, and that sense of relaxation seemed to enter every pore of his body, which was extremely smooth, and his whole body was stained with sweat, really like taking a bath.
