The life of a peasant girl reborn

Chapter 356 Assassination (1)
Seeing Feng Er kneeling there, as a brother who had grown up in training together, Feng Yi felt uncomfortable, and wanted to ask for mercy, but after thinking about it, he didn't.Although they have a deep brotherhood, they are only loyal to their master, Murong Qingfeng, and the master's affairs must be put first at all times.What Feng Er said just now really violated the master's bottom line, and he should be punished.

Murong Qingfeng looked at the behavior of the two of them, and after the two of them shut up, Murong Qingfeng said, "Get up, don't be an example."

"Thank you, master, for not punishing me. My subordinates must keep in mind that they will not make the same mistake." Feng Er heard Murong Qingfeng's answer, and quickly got up to assure him.

"Okay, I know that you are thinking about my safety, but this matter has been decided by the Crown Prince and cannot be changed." Murong Qingfeng stated his intention again.

Hearing Murong Qingfeng's reaffirmation, the guard Feng Yi.Feng Er glanced at each other, from the change of their master's title of prince, he could hear the firmness in their master's words, knowing that this matter could not be changed, and only hoped that there would be no danger in the next time.

"Your subordinate obeys." The two replied in unison.

"Okay, Feng Yi stays, Feng Er goes out." Murong Qingfeng arranged in this way.

After receiving clear instructions, Feng Er obediently left the study and went to select guards.

"Feng Yi, I asked you to arrange someone to go to the capital to deliver the letter again, but the arrangement has been made?" Murong Qingfeng asked.

"Returning to the master, the arrangements have been made just now. In addition to arranging Feng Wu to return to Beijing to deliver the letter, the subordinate also arranged for three carrier pigeons. The routes are all different. I believe this time the news will definitely be sent back to the capital." Feng Er truthfully answering.

"That's good, I hope the court can see the letter this time." Murong Qingfeng said with emotion.Thinking of what Shen Chaoqiu said just now, and the news Murong Qingfeng got from it, he had doubts in his heart, and asked aloud, "How about the martial arts of the members of the Wind Guards? Can anyone surpass them?"

Hearing Murong Qingfeng's question, Feng Yi was puzzled and couldn't figure out why the master asked such a question, but he still answered truthfully, "Master, the members of the Wind Guard are specially selected, and everyone is very powerful. Although I dare not say that I am number one, it is still possible to be in the top few.”

"Then why were the people who were sent back to the capital killed before, but the others were able to send the letter back to the capital?" Murong Qingfeng asked again.

Recalling the conversation with Shen Chaoqiu just now, Murong Qingfeng could guess that Shen Xuan had already got the situation on the Jiangnan side, otherwise he would not have traded with the Xie Mansion and asked the Xie Mansion to send someone to support it.

Since Miss Shen Xuan has already learned about the situation here, why hasn't the court's rescue arrived yet?Based on the relationship between Miss Shen and Fifth Brother, Fifth Brother should also know about the situation here, right?Murong Qingfeng couldn't figure out these things, he was puzzled in his heart, and asked himself like this.

"Master, the person who was sent back to the capital last time just entered the Wind Guards. His subordinates went to check the place where the incident happened. He must have been besieged by many people. If he fought alone, the Wind Guards would be considered a loser." But escaping is not a problem." Feng Yi, as the leader of the Wind Guards, took the opportunity to explain, can this matter make their Wind Guards leave a bad impression in the heart of the master.

Personal guards like them can only reflect their value if they are reused by their masters. They live like human beings. If they are useless, they will only die.

"Go down." After listening to Feng Yi's explanation, Murong Qingfeng didn't say much, and ordered like this.

"Yes, this subordinate will leave." Feng Yi answered with his hand cupped, then turned and left the room.

The Wind Guards transferred 20 people away at once, and four more were sent out.Secretly followed the county magistrate and other officials who went to rescue the disaster and watched, and now there are only six people left in the entire Wind Guard.There are only six people who can protect the safety of the prince. When Feng thought of this, his heart was in a state of panic, worried that there would be problems, and after thinking about it, he decided to make arrangements immediately to avoid unpredictable consequences.

The arrangements on the prince's side were all discovered by the people hiding in the dark, several figures flashed past, and each went back to report and discuss.

"What should we do? Thirteenth went back to the capital to deliver the letter, and there are only five of us left. The third young master and the prince are separated. How do we divide?"

"What's the share? Of course we are following the third young master to protect him. That's the master's real brother."

"Fifteen, you forgot, when you came, the master gave orders to ensure the safety of the crown prince."

"Just now I saw two figures flash past the county government. I don't know if these two people are enemies or friends?"

"Okay, stop arguing. The third young master left with the prince's personal guards. They are all masters. Fifteen can follow behind and protect secretly. There are only a few people left on the prince's side. If the two parties It's the enemy, the remaining four of us can still stop it at the critical moment, otherwise if the crown prince has an accident, the third young master will definitely be implicated, how will we explain to the master when we return to the capital?"

There was a secret discussion here, and there were also people discussing in an inconspicuous small courtyard in the county town.

"But you can see clearly, all the people protecting the prince have been transferred away?"

"A large part has been transferred, and there are less than ten people left."

"But find out where they went? Are you coming back tonight?"

"Brother, I haven't checked this clearly, but it seems that they left in a hurry, there should be something urgent."

"It's getting dark soon, tonight is our chance, brother, give the order, kill the prince, and we can fulfill the master's order."

"That's right, brother, let's give an order. I had an agreement with the county magistrate before, and he won't return to the county government for two days. The remaining government servants are not enough for us brothers to chop."

"Okay, inform the brethren that we will act at Xushi tonight."

In an inn in the county seat, four people were discussing in a certain room.

"I got the news just now that most of the people around the prince have been transferred away. Tonight, the four of us will go over there and guard it. If something happens, we can help it. If there is an accident, we can't explain it to the master."

"We all follow the arrangement of the eldest brother." After the three of them looked at each other, they made the arrangement in unison.

"Let's go eat first, and go there after dinner, it's getting dark."

The arrival of night made the whole world dark, the bright moon hid secretly in the clouds, the wind stopped and the trees stopped, and the surroundings were quiet.Such a quiet atmosphere made the six wind guards guarding outside the study heightened their vigilance.They had a gut instinct that something was going to happen tonight.

"What should I do?" Feng Si turned his head and asked Feng Yi, with worry in his tone.

Feng Yi looked back at the study room, inside was their master - the current prince, and it was their duty to protect the prince.Withdrawing his gaze, he replied firmly to Feng Si, "No matter what happens later, protecting the master is the first priority. If you lose, you will take the master away first."
