$550, Assassination by Female Killer
Chapter 553 Assassination by Female Killer
Bai Gui and Shao Yuanjun couldn't argue with Wu Tingfang due to etiquette and demeanor, but Zhao Qian was different. She and Wu Tingfang were both noble ladies of similar age. Search and read on Google Now Zhao Qian has taught Wu Tingfang a lesson, which can be said to have given Bai Gui and Shao Yuanjun a bad breath.
"Xiang Shaolong, Miss Wu has always been elegant and polite, but why are you acting like a shrew today... You and Miss Wu are the only ones together. Could it be that you, Xiang Shaolong, instigated Miss Wu?"
After Wu Tingfang fell silent, Shao Yuanjun finally found an opportunity and criticized.
He had long disliked Xiang Shaolong.
It's just that he's not a mindless fool. Knowing how to criticize Xiang Shaolong will achieve the greatest benefit. Xiang Shaolong is now a disciple of Wu Mansion. He said this with the intention of causing discord between Wu Mansion and Xiang Shaolong. As long as there is no protection from Wu Mansion, how can Xiang Shaolong be his opponent?
After he said these words, Wu Tingfang would not doubt Xiang Shaolong, because her words and deeds were not provoked by Xiang Shaolong, but it would be different if these words fell into the ears of the elders of Wu Mansion.
"Shaoyuan-kun, you..."
Xiang Shaolong, who was riding on the horse, looked very ugly.
He couldn't reply.
To refute... is to say that Wu Tingfang is stupid.
If he didn't refute, his "crime" would be confirmed.
In addition, Wu Tingfang had already slapped himself three times and admitted his fault. From the perspective of guilt, no matter what he said, it would not be a good idea.
"Xiang Shaolong, since you already know your mistake, why not get out of here!"
Shao Yuanjun curled his lips and said calmly.
At this moment, Bai Gui is beside him. Even if Xiang Shaolong is not afraid of his disciples, he will definitely retreat when he sees Bai Gui, who has defeated him twice.
"Young dragon, don't be impulsive."
Seeing that Xiang Shaolong had the urge to draw his sword, Wu Tingfang quickly stopped Xiang Shaolong. Although the two of them were protected by Wufu's retainers, they were outnumbered. The Baigui trio had more retainers and guards than the Wufu's retainers. Moreover, if Zhao Qian used weapons here, she might be framed as a rebellion.
Before reaching the last step, Wufu was still unwilling to take the risk.
At least he wouldn't risk it for Xiang Shaolong's personal anger.
Xiang Shaolong also knows how to judge the situation, but if Shao Yuan-Jun insults him like this, if he doesn't retaliate, he won't have the face to deal with Wu Tingfang in the future. Seeing Wu Tingfang coming to persuade him, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's okay. A gentleman doesn't care about villains. Let's go."
After that, the two of them rode off.
The tense diners also gradually retreated to the side.
"It's a pity that Xiang Shaolong is not angry. Otherwise, it would be a good thing to take this opportunity to kill him." Shao Yuanjun licked his lips and smiled.
He is young, but he regards life as nothing.
Indiscriminately killing Xiang Shaolong, a knight appreciated by King Zhao, was definitely a serious crime. But it also depends on who is responsible for the crime. With Lord Pingyuan's presence alone, Lord Shaoyuan would not be punished. Not to mention that Mr. Shao Yuan also used a strategy...
There are stupid people in aristocratic families, but definitely not many.
"The Wu Mansion is now highly regarded by the king, so there is no need to rush the matter of Xiang Shaolong."
Bai Gui's eyes flickered and he said. Xiang Shaolong is much more important than Lord Shao Yuan, and he is not willing to kill him. If Mr. Shao Yuan was unwise and sent a killer to kill Xiang Shaolong, this would ruin his plan. Therefore, there is also persuasion in his words.
Killing is necessary, but there is no need to rush it.
"What Mr. Li said is true."
Mr. Shao Yuan also felt that it was reasonable. He saw that there were only three of them present, and the guests were a little far away, so he said openly: "Although the king thinks highly of Wu Mansion, the good days of Wu Mansion are not far away. Just look at Wushi Luo. Does this old guy understand what the king means? If he abandons his car to protect his commander, he has two intentions, haha..."
Before reaching a certain point, King Zhao was unwilling to attack Wu Mansion easily.
After all, Wu Shiluo was a hero of Zhao State.
All the ministers in the Zhao court knew that King Zhao was gradually dissatisfied with the Wu Mansion, but it was still unknown when this dissatisfaction would break out. During this period, it was also an opportunity for the Wu family and the Wu family to win the trust of King Zhao.
"It depends on what this old fox Wu Shiluo chooses..."
Bai Gui echoed.
A loyal minister does not serve two masters.
If Wushiluo does not cut off contact with Qin.
King Zhao will definitely kill him.
At this point, everyone in the Zhao Kingdom still doesn't know how far King Zhao will go. But Lord Shaoyuan is the son of Lord Pingyuan Zhao Sheng, the cousin of King Zhao, and the current controller of Lord Pingyuan's power. It is not unimaginable to know the inside story.
With the intervention of Wu Tingfang and Xiang Shaolong, the three of them rode for a while outside Gandan City. When they saw the sunset, they got into the carriage and prepared to return home.
Bai Gui got into Zhao Qian's carriage again.
When the two came, they had a lot of friendship because they rubbed each other's ears. When Zhao Qian was pregnant with the girl, she suddenly became obsessed with Bai Gui, and half-heartedly invited Bai Gui to ride in her car.
"Don't, um..., don't touch there..."
Zhao Qian wanted to refuse but still welcomed her, the shyness on her face became more intense. She panted slightly, looking at this handsome husband with her beautiful eyes, a thin layer of fragrant sweat secreted on her neck...
But at this moment.
Suddenly, there was an explosion outside the car.
"There are assassins, there are assassins..."
Several diners shouted.
Bai Gui pulled his right hand out of Zhao Qian's body, held Zhao Qian with one hand, and opened the curtain of the carriage. Suddenly, a group of assassins in black rushed over outside the west gate of Gandan City, and were fighting next to the carriage where he and Zhao Qian were sitting. There were about thirty assassins in black.
Although the number of assassins was small, each of them had excellent sword skills and was fearless. They approached the carriage step by step.
"There are no black-clad people in Shaoyuan Jun's place, so this assassin is targeting you and me."
Bai Gui frowned and judged.
He was about to say more, but he saw four black-clad assassins approaching the carriage. The four people stabbed at the carriage from four directions, leaving Bai Gui no chance to survive.
Although the carriage of the palace was sturdy, the skills of these four people were extraordinary.
With a click, the sword pierced into the carriage.
"Success!"
Several black-clad people stamped their feet and shouted.
However, the next second, the top of the carriage was directly broken. Bai Gui rushed out holding Zhao Qian in one hand and holding the Gan Jiang sword in the other. He landed on the ground, snorted coldly, and then jumped, turning into pieces of afterimages. After three breaths, he stopped fifty steps away.
Plop! Plop!
More than 30 black-clothed men fell to the ground with blood on their necks.
Only one black-clothed man with a small body did not fall to the ground. Bai Gui did not kill this black-clothed man. It was not because of her petite figure and her female body, but because this female killer was the leader of this group of black-clothed men. The death of some men was not worth mentioning, but the female leader needed to be interrogated.
"Tied him up!"
Bai Gui gave the order.
As soon as he finished speaking, the palace guards and guests who were stunned outside the city gate were amazed by Bai Gui's swordsmanship. They immediately surrounded the female killer, but Bai Gui had cut the tendons of her right hand holding the sword, and she was already unable to resist. It didn't take much effort to tie her up in front of Bai Gui.
At the same time, Lian Jin also rushed here.
"My guards are late, please forgive me, Master Li and Princess Qian."
He held the sword and bowed to apologize.
After the voice fell, he looked around and his eyes shrank deeply. If he said that when he was fighting in the palace, he only felt that Bai Gui's swordsmanship was superb, but he didn't appreciate the subtlety. But just now, more than 30 killers were killed at the same time. This kind of swordsmanship has reached a level that no one can reach.
"It's okay, Master Lian, don't blame yourself."
Bai Gui smiled gently, "The incident happened suddenly, and it is also reasonable that Master Lian didn't arrive in time."
Lian Jin nodded, put away the sword and stood by.
"Zhao Li, you and Zhao Mu, I will not let your family go even if I die and become a ghost..."
After the female killer was tied up, she cursed at first, then her expression flashed with determination, and her face with a scarf moved slightly, as if she was swallowing something.
Bai Gui glanced at her, and was not in a hurry. When the female killer fell to the ground, he rubbed a mud ball from his body, took off the scarf, and fed it directly into the female killer's mouth.
With his cultivation in this life, he has not yet reached the point where a little dirt on his body can bring the dead back to life and turn flesh into bones. But this life contains his Yang Shen body, and a little bit of magic power is released, and the "dirt" secreted from his life can be used as a panacea.
Of course, if the female killer is dead, his panacea can't save her at all. But the female killer just swallowed a little poison, so... she can still be saved.
After the pill entered her mouth, the female killer's iron-blue face quickly turned into a normal blush. Seeing that Zhao Qian was about to wake up, Bai Gui pressed the female killer's sleep point and let her continue to sleep.
"I'm sorry for scaring Princess Qian."
After throwing the female killer onto the horse he carried with him, Bai Gui walked to Zhao Qian and apologized.
The female killer had already made it clear that this group of people came to kill him.
He had a deep hatred with the Julu Marquis Mansion.
It was obviously his fault that Zhao Qian had suffered such a crisis for nothing.
However, after Bai Gui said it, he looked at Zhao Qian's expression and regretted it. Zhao Qian not only did not blame him, but stared at him with a face full of joy.
"Mr. Li, can we do the flying again just now?"
Her beautiful eyes sparkled.
Just now, Bai Gui took her out of the carriage and beheaded so many gangsters with one sword. It really shocked her, and after the shock, she was nostalgic for the flying just now.
A sword rises into the sky, and a fairy flies from the sky...
"Princess Qian, this..."
Bai Gui hesitated.
When he felt the crisis just now, he immediately activated the sword spirit of the Ganjiang sword, allowing the Ganjiang sword to bring him extraordinary power again. Excessive use of this power will inevitably be contaminated with some cause and effect of this world.
However, he was still in love with Zhao Qian just now, and it was not appropriate to refuse now.
"Just this time."
He sighed.
"Just this time."
Zhao Qian nodded like a chicken pecking at rice.
Seeing this, Bai Gui did not say anything, but stopped Zhao Qian's slender waist with one hand, then stepped on the wall of Gandan City and walked towards the tower step by step.
If others were so presumptuous, the soldiers guarding the wall would have thrown down the rolling logs and shot arrows. But Bai Gui is the son of Julu Hou, and the one he is holding is the beloved daughter of King Zhao. The group of soldiers looked left and right, and did not dare to move without authorization.
Gandan City was more than three feet high. Bai Gui only walked more than ten steps and landed on the arrow tower of the city wall.
"Master Li, your martial arts skills are probably unmatched among all the nations."
Zhao Qian felt the exciting scene just now, and when she came back to her senses, she said quietly.
"It's just a trivial trick, it's hard to reach the level of elegance."
Bai Gui shook his head, "I am only flesh and blood. Even if I am an enemy of a hundred people, how can I stop Qin's thousands of troops? In this world, the one with strong soldiers and horses is the king!"
With the strength he has shown so far, he is at most a top assassin. The world of Xun Qin Ji is different from the pre-Qin in history. Just as Lian Jin has qi training skills, the people in this world also have some extraordinary powers. It's just that this extraordinary power is not worth mentioning.
Among the countries, what is more important is the strength of each country. Rather than a knight from a certain country.
"What Mr. Li said makes sense."
Zhao Qian's eyes touched Bai Gui, and she fell in love with him even more.
If ordinary people said something, she would just laugh. But when Bai Gui, a top swordsman, said this, it was different. There are some differences between a brave man and a wise man.
"Those are Wu Tingfang, Xiang Shaolong, and... Zhao Zheng!"
From the arrow tower on the city wall, you can overlook most of the scenery of Ganden West Gate. While Zhao Qian was talking to Bai Gui, she noticed the busy street near Ximen with her peripheral vision.
On a broad street, Wu Tingfang and Xiang Shaolong suddenly appeared again, but this time, there was a young man accompanying them.
Zhao Qian is no stranger to this young man.
Qin’s proton—Zhao Zheng!
Zhao Zheng is famous in Zhao State. Before the battle between Qin and Zhao Changping, Zhao Zheng, who was protected by Ying Yiren, lived well in Gandan, Zhao State, and was a guest of princes and ministers. But as Ying Yiren returned to Qin, and then Qin and Zhao fought the Changping War. After Bai Qi killed 400,000 Zhao soldiers, even though Zhao was still wary of Qin's military might, his treatment of Zhao Zheng was... …There is no such generous treatment as before.
Zhao Zheng was repeatedly marginalized in Zhao State.
"That's Prince Dan of Yan Kingdom."
Zhao Qian looked at a young man in robes who came out of the wine shop and said.
The young man in long robe then walked to a place with Zhao Zheng, chatting and laughing with Xiang Shaolong and Wu Tingfang.
"It seems that the war between Zhao and Yan has also squeezed out Prince Dan of Yan, otherwise he would not be together with Zhao Zheng."
Bai Gui withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice.
Prince Dan of Yan was also not treated well in Zhao. After the Changping War, the State of Yan wanted to take advantage of the State of Zhao, so Prince Dan of Yan, who became a hostage in the State of Zhao, must have been ostracized by the sons of ministers.
"I heard that Zhao Zheng once promoted the young master and you fell into the water."
After the four people disappeared from their sight, Zhao Qian asked.
Although she was familiar with Zhao Li before, she hadn't paid enough attention to Zhao Li's every move. As for Zhao Li falling into the water, we only found out about it after he and Bai Gui made the engagement. It's just that she has some doubts at this moment. With Zhao Zheng's martial arts skills, can he push Bai Gui into the water?
impossible! Absolutely impossible!
Coming.
Bai Gui's eyes flashed.
Lian Jin taught him Qi training. He could still use this as an excuse to use it as an excuse to Zhao Mu, the Marquis of the Deer, but to the outside world, he definitely could not use this as an excuse.
Zhao Mu, the Marquis of Julu, knew that "Zhao Li" could not lie to him, as the Qi training skills taught by Lian Jin were just that. But in the eyes of the outside world, Bai Gui has grown from a weak person to a master by leaps and bounds. This qi training technique is absolutely extremely precious. Even if Lian Jin passed it on completely, they would still not believe it.
However, Bai Gui had already found an excuse in advance, and the palace's tactics alone were not enough to win Zhao Qian's trust. He pondered for a while and then said: "It's not easy to hide this matter from Princess Qian. My father and the leader of the Wu clan have long had differences. The sword fight in the palace seems to be a trap set by my father to attack the leader of the Wu clan... "
"Actually, it was my father's preparations for me to marry Princess Qian."
Today, Zhao Qian has long been deeply in love with him, and the two are just one step away from becoming a de facto husband and wife. With this "frank" communication, there is no need to worry too much, and it will not damage the relationship between the two of them.
"Including Julu Hou suggesting to my father that I be married to the Kingdom of Wei?"
Zhao Qian was surprised.
Then she made up her mind. The actions of Julu Hou Zhao Mu made her hate Bai Gui, so she started to pay attention to Bai Gui. Later, Bai Gui intervened in the sword duel between Xiang Shaolong and Lian Jin. After winning the sword victory, it was inevitable to deal with the diplomacy between Zhao and Wei, so Bai Gui's advice became inevitable...
Plan step by step.
Zhao Qian couldn't help but take a deep breath of cold air.
Julu Hou Zhao Mu has such a deep city!
Sensing Zhao Mu's plan, Zhao Qian couldn't help but almost moved her foot to go to the palace to report to King Zhao, but she raised her foot and put it down again. It was King Zhao who abandoned her first and sent her to Wei to make peace. In addition, Zhao Mu is now her father-in-law. If she reports Zhao Mu, she may not get any good results.
On the contrary, the more powerful Zhao Mu is, the more benefits she will get.
She seems to be father and daughter to King Zhao, but the royal family does not belong to her.
"Even though my father wants me to marry Princess Qian..."
"But Zhao Li's feelings for the princess are definitely not fake."
Bai Gui said sincerely.
After Zhao Qian heard these love words, her legs felt a little weak.
"Young Master Li, Qian'er, it's not like you won't marry Mr. Li, after all..." She bit her lip with a look of shame on her face, "After all, we are already like that."
One is affection, and the other is interest.
She chose Bai Gui's side and turned her back on King Zhao.
"Ahem..."
"Princess Qian, you are still in the Arrow Tower now."
Bai Gui saw that Zhao Qian was a little emotional, coughed lightly, and reminded her. As a young man, he knew the taste of meat, but Zhao Qian was different.
"Still in the arrow tower..."
Zhao Qian came back to her senses and straightened her clothes. Seeing that her clothes were intact and she had not missed the spring scenery, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Li, let's go down the arrow tower."
She lowered her head and said embarrassedly.
Bai Gui nodded, stretched out his hand to hold Zhao Qian's slender waist, then floated down from the arrow tower and landed outside the west city gate again.
"Mr. Li, Princess Qian, you two are so affectionate, but I have been waiting for a long time."
Shao Yuanjun rode over and rolled his eyes.
"My fault, I will treat Shao Yuanjun to a drink another day."
Bai Gui smiled and said.
The three of them entered the city gate again and returned to their own houses.
