Prince of Song Dynasty

Chapter 431 Maitreya Cult's Assassination Plan
For Ye Chen, these things are simply trivial things that he doesn't care about at all.But it is a big deal for Zhu Bingbing, Chen Jun and others, especially Zhu Bingbing, who is not well-known yet. This time when they met Liu Zongyang and Ye Chen's pseudonym Chen Qing, the two even praised her for dancing well. Well, I'm in a bad mood.Of course, after this incident, her reputation will increase a lot, which will benefit her a lot.

Besides, Shangguan Bingyun's aristocratic lady dressed as Shangguan Bingyun led a maid to appear among the crowd not far from Qinghe Tower. She casually looked at the surrounding terrain, especially to further confirm that the manpower around Wang Dongyang was as expected. same as in.But when she was about to go back to Huafang, she suddenly felt faintly as if she was being watched by someone. She was very experienced, so naturally she would not look back at this time, and left the crowd as if nothing had happened, and easily escaped her sight by using the cover.Then he went around to the hidden place next to the Qinghe Tower and observed secretly for a while, but found no suspicious person.Then she returned to a flower boat by the river with some doubts and vigilance.

After a while, when she walked out of the flower boat again, she had turned into a tall and thin man in black robe, holding a folding fan, wearing a scribe scarf, handsome and masculine.But it is the type of wit who can arouse women's minds.

Jinling Mansion Governor Wang Dongyang is not an incompetent person, on the contrary, this person has some abilities and means in his work as an official.Otherwise, it is impossible to sit firmly in the position of Jinling Mansion Governor for seven years without falling down, and has a strong ability to control Jinling Mansion at some levels.The most important thing is that this person hates the Maitreya Sect for some reason, and always opposes the Maitreya Sect.Therefore, he was also regarded as a thorn in the side by Maitreya.

In fact, before this, in the past few years, the Maitreya Sect had organized masters to assassinate Wang Dongyang several times, but none of them succeeded.Even three months ago, when Maitreya taught the masters of the Four King Kong series, he was dispatched, but he was only injured.And this was also the main reason why Shangguan Bingyun personally took action to kill him this time.

However, after several assassinations in the past, Wang Dongyang never lost his vigilance, and many master guards followed him every time he went out.

At this time, Wang Dongyang was on the shore of the river, among the closest and relatively largest painting boats to the various stages.Ye Chen glanced at it from a distance, and there were at least nearly a hundred people in various positions near and far to protect Wang Dongyang.And from the perspective of manpower arrangement and position, the leader in charge of Wang Dongyang's security work is an expert in this area.With such an arrangement, not to mention ordinary assassins, even if there were four or five first-class assassins dispatched at the same time, they would not be able to get close to Wang Dongyang unless they had extraordinary means.Unless there is a perverted sharpshooter like Ye Chen, it is possible.

Seeing the situation clearly, Ye Chen was a little curious about how Shangguan Bingyun would do it later.

The Bailuzhou Oiran Tournament has finally come to an end, and the layout of the venue has been quickly rearranged.

There were originally seven stages, and the people who went in to watch the performance actually went loose, but this meeting has already become official.Only at this time can we see the ingenuity of the site selection here. A large stage is arranged near the river bank, and most of the front is a hillside that goes up slowly. At this time, many seats have been arranged. The building is also a well-arranged viewing point.Behind the stage, some large and small temporary tents are distributed in the open space as the background, which belong to the place prepared by each floor.

At this time, there are a total of sixteen girls left, each of whom will perform two performances tonight, and in the surrounding auditorium, a little ahead is actually divided into areas one by one.The building boat with the best viewing position is dedicated to dignitaries, and the sixteen brothels have also circled some positions for supporters, and these positions are probably better.

In the small building on the other side, near the open space in front of the stage, some people will prepare banquets, and even if there are no tables set up, some girls will be arranged to walk around with delicious snacks and serve them.

The fame brought by those two poems, coupled with the fact that Liu Zongyang, the Patriarch of the Liu family, has done some things secretly these days, Ye Chen and Liu Zongyang also have the qualifications to go to the middle building boat tonight.It's just that there is a good position in the middle of the building, but they don't have their share.

Ye Chen and Liu Zongyang took the posts and went up to the second floor of the boat after going through layers of inspections by the Jinling Mansion police.It is arranged in front of a window that is almost on the side, and there are various fruits and things on the coffee table next to it. Compared with the crowd below, the top looks a bit empty and deserted.

There are not many people here, and it mainly consists of two parts, except for a small number of very famous talents in Jinling City, and the dignitaries and dignitaries of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

Ye Chen's target tonight, Liu Linxuan, has also gone up to the third floor, and Ye Chen and Liu Zongyang also went to meet him just now.Relatively speaking, because Liu Linxuan witnessed the process of Ye Chen making the song "Recalling Homeland" a few days ago, he still respects Ye Chen and is quite polite.However, this kind of politeness is manifested in specific actions, and it's just a few more words with Ye Chen.Afterwards, Liu Linxuan was busy talking with the dignitaries here, and Ye Chen and Liu Zongyang exchanged polite words with several talented scholars, and then sat back in their seats.

Ye Chen glanced at Wang Dongyang, who was sitting by the middle window and was talking to Liu Linxuan who was paying respects, and thought that Shangguan Bingyun had probably dived into the boat, otherwise how could he assassinate Wang Dongyang.It's just that since he boarded the boat, he has been looking for Shangguan Bingyun from the corner of his eye, but he has never found it.

The performance below was lively, with occasional shouts of thunder. Ye Chen and Liu Zongyang watched while eating.In the gaps between performances, it will be revealed how many flowers a certain person has given to a certain girl, and there are also some talented people who have made masterpieces. After being read by some celebrities, they are also read out. In fact, the dignitaries of the Southern Tang Dynasty also had women who supported them. Occasionally, they could see the scene of a girl going up to thank her after the performance.

It was during this time that the scholar Shangguan Bingyun had disguised disappeared again.Afterwards, Su Yifei, one of the top four leaders and the most popular oiran, came on stage.Su Yifei is good at graceful and elegant dance steps and playing a very high-level guqin.And today he played at a higher level than usual.For a while, countless people rushed to sell flowers and join in the show.

It's just that the first time Su Yifei got on the stage, Ye Chen snorted coldly in his heart, but this Su Yifei was dressed up by Shangguan Bingyun.

And when another line leader named Bai Shishi also performed an amazing dance with some dance steps similar to the ballet of later generations, Liu Zongyang exclaimed strangely: "I didn't expect this Bai Shishi to have hidden treasures." Such a unique skill has never been heard of before."

While Liu Zongyang was enjoying himself there, he was still puzzled, but Ye Chen sneered in his heart.He hadn't noticed it before, but when the Bai Shishi dance was in the middle of the dance, he realized that this Bai Shishi was no longer the original Bai Shishi, but was dressed up by the girl taught by Maitreya.

Ye Chen thought that most of Su Yifei and Bai Shi's life was already in danger, and that beautiful face might also be made into a human skin mask, which was put on the faces of Shangguan Bingyun and Yu Niang respectively.

By now, Ye Chen naturally knew about Maitreya Cult's assassination plan, or part of the assassination plan.

According to the practice of previous years, after the annual Oiran Competition, the top eight will be invited to the boat where these dignitaries and dignitaries of the Southern Tang Dynasty are located, and participate in a banquet with the people on the boat.Naturally, during this period, the favorite poems and songs of nobles in the Southern Tang Dynasty were indispensable.

Obviously, when the time comes, Shangguan Bingyun and Na Niang will board the boat as Bai Shishi and Su Yifei respectively, and then wait for an opportunity to assassinate Wang Dongyang.

On the riverside under the darkness of night, the festive and peaceful atmosphere is still rising as the atmosphere of the night deepens, singing and dancing, as the original four major acts come on stage one after another, and gradually reach a climax. But except for Ye Chen , no one knows that Bai Shishi and Su Yifei are no longer themselves.

The one-night performance came to a successful end, and then the appearance of the four heads of the line was announced with great momentum. What is surprising is that the previous oiran Hu Liying not only failed to keep the oiran, but even failed to become the head of the line. Barely entered the top eight.Among the original four chief performers, Bi Qiaoer, Bai Shishi, and Su Yifei continued to be at the top of the line for successive consecutive years. Among them, Bai Shishi became the new oiran by virtue of her amazing and beautiful dance.

Then the whole venue began to end, most of the people chatted loudly with each other, and dispersed toward the exit, while the top eight oiran contestants prepared a little bit, and they would go to the upstairs boat.

Some vague confusion came from the door.I heard from others that a group of Hu Liying's fans over there were unhappy because the goddess in their hearts failed the rankings, and had a quarrel with other people, resulting in a small-scale fight.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, large and small, it happens almost every year during the oiran competition, it is not a big problem, the soldiers who maintain order have already rushed over, and it will be quelled soon.On the other side of the boat in the main building, many dignitaries and dignitaries were greeting each other. To them, the excitement and carnival tonight is not over yet, and the carnival with the top eight beauties in the oiran competition is what they are most looking forward to tonight.

Crowds were gathering and dispersing near and far from the site, and the lights began to stretch from the road to Jinling City. After a while, the crowd here gradually decreased, and another accident happened on the side of Ye Chen's field of vision.Perhaps it was because the weather was a little hot, but someone in a big tent behind the stage knocked down the candle, and a fire appeared on the river beach, igniting the tent and the surrounding items, burning blazingly.

People from various brothels ran out from there. Fortunately, there were not many people in this area. The people left were probably celebrities, officials, dignitaries, followers of these people, soldiers, and a very small number of spectators who were still socializing. , but there will not be any stampede.Someone was telling: "Hurry up and put out the fire." Many people went there.

Ye Chen has extraordinary hearing, and faintly heard Wang Dongyang snorting coldly in the middle of the building by the window, and said to the people next to him: "It must be the demon of the Maitreya Sect who wants to assassinate the mansion again, using such means to lure away the people around me Guard"
