Chapter 173 [Beacon in Troubled Times 21]
The assassin group assassinated the prince in public on the day of the prince's birthday party, but unfortunately the operation failed.
I didn't expect the Eighth Prince to hide everything, and he actually has good martial arts. He can fight against female assassins with strong martial arts skills for a long time without losing the wind. They can't continue to attack the prince.But what if the second lady is killed directly?It can still destroy the marriage plan!
The second young lady has a family of daughters and has never learned martial arts, so killing is much easier.
Realizing this, Xiao Lou immediately summoned Li Qingzhao, and Fei Ge sent a letter to Long Sen who is still in the palace, asking him to pay close attention to the movements of the Second Miss and protect the safety of the Second Miss.
Liu Qiao, Mr. Shao and Ye Qi stayed in the magistrate's mansion, while Yu Hanjiang took Xiao Lou and Mo Xuemin to the palace on fast horses.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the palace, I saw Long Sen looking anxious, and greeted him in a low voice: "When I received the letter from Fei Ge, the second lady had already left the mansion, and she left with the ninth princess and Wanyue. .”
Yu Hanjiang's expression changed: "How long has she been away?"
Long Sen said, "About half an hour."
Xiao Lou asked, "Do you know where they went?"
Long Sen said: "Before Wanyue left, she wrote me a note that the ninth princess was going to buy clothes, so she asked the second lady to accompany her. The palace has closed the gates for the past few days to prevent people from going out, but the nine princesses are really irresistible when they get sexual. They sneaked out through the back door!"
Yu Hanjiang: "..."
Sure enough, the Nine Princesses came to Jiangzhou not only to provide clues, but also to make trouble at critical moments.
At present, only Qu Wanyue is following them. Once encountering an assassin, Teacher Qu may not be able to deal with it alone.
Yu Hanjiang immediately made a decision: "Chase!"
The four of them rode fast horses to the Jiangzhou market. However, there are so many people here, how can there be any shadows of the nine princesses and the second lady?
The four quickly searched the clothes shops on the whole street, but they didn't find the whereabouts of Princess Jiu. "
Long Sen couldn't help complaining: "This Ninth Princess is really a troublemaker. The prince has just been assassinated by an assassin, and she is still restless. She insists on taking the second lady out of the house to buy some clothes at this time!"
When Yu Hanjiang heard this, he suddenly said, "It's not right."
He glanced at the vast crowd of people in the market, and got on his horse without hesitation: "Get out of the city!"
Although the other three were puzzled, they were used to listening to Captain Yu's orders at critical moments, and immediately got on their horses and followed him.
On the way, Long Sen said nervously, "Aren't you going to continue searching in the market?"
Yu Hanjiang said: "Buying clothes is misleading information. The Ninth Princess is indeed unruly and capricious. Don't forget who the Second Miss is."
Long Sen and Mo Xuemin were bewildered.
Xiao Lou immediately figured out what Yu Hanjiang meant, and said, "Second Miss is calm and calm, even if Princess Jiu has no brains to go out at this time, how could she follow? She can't do such a dangerous thing out of nowhere, besides, Jiu The princess should not be familiar with the palace, thinking of going out through the back door, maybe it was the second lady's idea."
Yu Hanjiang glanced at Xiao Lou with admiration.Every time I think of it, Xiao Lou can immediately understand it. This kind of "heart-to-heart" feeling is so good. He couldn't help smiling, and said to Xiao Lou: "Madam is right. This matter is not about Jiugong's sexuality." Instead, it was the Second Miss who took the lead, she deliberately lured the Ninth Princess out of the mansion, and made an innocent gesture of 'I had no choice but to go shopping with the Princess' to let the enemy relax their vigilance."
At this moment, Lao Mo finally came to his senses: "Your Excellency, what you mean is that the Second Young Miss risked her life to go out of the city in order to lure the assassin to show up?"
Xiao Loudao: "With Second Young Miss's intelligence, if it wasn't for the purpose of luring snakes out of the cave, it would be unreasonable for her to leave the palace suddenly at the time when two murders occurred in the palace and the prince was assassinated in public."
Yu Hanjiang added: "What's more, Miss San and Qin Rui, the most skilled guard among the guards, also left the palace yesterday. At that time, we speculated that these two people were deliberately released by the prince to perform some mission."
Hearing this, Long Sen finally realized.
The prince first let the third lady and Qin Rui go out of the city to set up an ambush, and then the second lady pretended to be dragged out of the palace by the ninth princess, and went out of the city after shopping. Once the assassins acted, they could ambush them in advance and catch them all.
Long Sen sighed: "As expected of the eighth prince who is cunning and calculating!"
At the same time, he had to admire the shrewdness of Yu and Xiao. In his opinion, the third lady and Qin Rui eloped out of the mansion, and the second lady was dragged out of the mansion by the wayward princess...
He never expected that there were so many calculations behind it!
Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou thought of it. They are indeed the people who broke the world record for the Chamber of Hearts, and their thinking is more flexible than theirs.
Thinking of this, Long Sen immediately sped up his horse and rushed out of the city like the wind and lightning——
suburbs.
Ninth princess was tired from walking and rested under the tree, and the second lady smiled and chatted with her.
Qu Wanyue was very anxious. She didn't expect that after the two girls finished buying clothes, the second lady suddenly said that she wanted to go out of the city and go to the temple to offer incense to her mother. Her mother's memorial day was coming soon, so naturally the ninth princess would not refuse, just the princess They also wanted to go around the green hills outside Jiangzhou City, so the two hit it off and left Jiangzhou City.
The second young lady led them down a small path, but it turned out to be more and more sideways?
Looking at the desolate surroundings, there is a dense forest in front of you...
Qu Wanyue felt that something was wrong, but she had no way to report to her teammates, so she had to leave marks along the way.
The "four-way arrow" obtained in the room of squares 2 is very useful. She secretly left the arrow on the tree. She believed that as long as her teammates saw it, they would understand it.
At this moment, there was a sudden sound of sharpness breaking through the air.
Qu Wanyue was startled, and immediately protected the two girls: "Be careful!"
A group of women in white clothes and bamboo hats, holding long swords, stabbed at the Ninth Princess and the Second Miss!
The Ninth Princess screamed in fright: "Ahhh, assassin, there is an assassin!"
Second Miss looked calm, and quickly dragged Princess Nine into the woods.
Most of Qu Wanyue's cards are banned, but "Chameleon" can still be used, so it is actually very easy to escape by herself.But the problem is that once she escapes at this time and the second lady and the ninth princess are killed, they will definitely not be able to get a perfect clearance and an S rating in the Heart Chamber this time!
Just thinking about what to do, at this moment, a man holding a long sword in the distance suddenly flew towards him like a roc spreading its wings!I saw the long sword in his hand swung out violently, blocked the sharp swords of the group of assassins with a few clangs, and said in a low voice: "Go quickly, my queen!"
——It's Long Sen.
Long Sen's setting in this world is the guard of the palace, he knows martial arts.
With many cards banned, Long Sen became the most powerful among them.
Seeing him standing in front of her, Qu Wanyue finally breathed a sigh of relief—she knew her boyfriend, with well-developed limbs and a simple mind, Long Sen definitely couldn't think that far, at most he thought they were shopping for clothes and would never chase them to the city outside.
Now that Long Sen is here, Team Yu and Professor Xiao must also know about it.
Sure enough, the next moment, Yu Hanjiang and Xiao Lou ran over quickly with teleportation cards.
Xiao Lou was not strong enough in combat, but he held the medicine powder prepared by Liu Qiao in his hand. Yu Hanjiang gently hugged his waist and led him to teleport, while he sprinkled the medicine powder beside him. The effect of the purple poisonous mist was immediate, and a group of assassins were poisoned. Fog covered their vision, and they covered their mouths and noses and coughed.
Miss Er probably didn't expect that these people would suddenly come to rescue her.
She glanced at several people with complex expressions, and continued to drag the princess into the depths of the woods.
A large part of the assassins were poisoned, and some who covered their mouths and noses in time and were not affected by the poisonous mist flew over immediately, chasing after them!
Seeing that those sharp swords were about to stab everyone's backs, suddenly, the two assassins stepped on the air and fell into the trap in the woods, and the others were also trapped by the net that fell from the sky!
A man and a woman emerged from the woods with a large group of shadow guards in black, and surrounded the assassins.
——It was Qin Rui and Miss San.
Xiao Lou and Yu Hanjiang looked at each other, and thought, "It really is so."
Miss San and Qin Rui left the palace ahead of time, so it was to set up a trap to capture the assassin alive.
The second lady put herself at risk, pretending to accompany the princess out of the mansion, and went out of the city to offer incense with the princess, just to lure the snake out of the cave.
Perhaps His Majesty and the prince have long suspected that Jiangzhou has an intelligence organization of an enemy country, that's why the prince was so calm when he was assassinated at the birthday party.
Once Yu Hanjiang's reasoning is not fast enough, if he misses any clues, if he can't figure out that the assassin is from the country of Yan, and if he doesn't realize that the second lady is in danger, they will miss today's big show!
The emperor and the eighth prince are also secretly investigating this team of assassins. Even if they can't guess the origin of the assassins, the prince will capture these assassins alive today and give them more clues, but then the score will definitely be super low, just like The secret room of Fenglin High School is like waiting for the police to solve the case.
The biggest test of this secret room is actually to require them to think carefully, quickly analyze and confirm the correct reasoning results, and not to miss subtle clues and key events.
Only by keeping up with the prince's rhythm and detecting the identity of the assassin team one step ahead of the prince, can you get the S-level evaluation of perfect customs clearance!
