Chapter 386 Assassination


Chapter 386 Assassination

When the dishes arrived, Ao Tianchen ordered the waiter to place the most expensive signature dish in front of Xia Zihan, which made Concubine Yu scream.

"Sir, I also want to eat monkey brains. I heard that I can replenish myself wherever I eat. I'm stupid, so I just want to eat monkey brains to replenish myself. Master, please tell the maid to bring the steamed monkey brains over."


The sweet voice made Xia Zihan's arms get goosebumps.

Ao Tianchen's face was gentle, but there was a hint of disgust deep in his eyes.

Although the emperor's poison has been cured, his health is very slow. He can't get out of bed yet. The government affairs are handled by his father and the eldest prince.

The Yu family is in charge of the Military and Horse Department and is responsible for the safety of the entire capital. At this juncture, he cannot push the Yu family away.

By pushing the Yu family away, wouldn't it be giving the Lu family an advantage?

In the end, Ao Tianchen did not refuse and took a piece of monkey brain with his own hands and put it into Concubine Yu's bowl.

There were five pieces of steamed monkey brains in total. He gave one piece to Princess Mingzhu and one piece to Princess Qinghui. With the remaining two pieces, he glanced at Xia Zihan and said, "This steamed monkey brain is Baiweiju's signature product." You should also try the food.”

Xia Zihan is from a girl's family, so it's not easy for him to pinch her with his own hands.

Hearing Ao Tianchen's gentle voice that was different from the past, Concubine Yu bit her chopsticks hard and shot a vicious look at Xia Zihan.

As soon as Xia Zihan put a piece of monkey brain in the bowl, she felt a murderous aura falling on her. She raised her eyes and saw Concubine Yu, who was looking in the direction from which she was looking. She was lowering her head to taste the food Ao Tianchen had given her in the bowl. A bowl full of vegetables.

She frowned, becoming slightly wary of Concubine Yu.

After eating the monkey brain, I also picked up a piece of sauced venison and was about to put it in my mouth. Suddenly, Concubine Yu screamed and held her head, complaining that she had a headache.

"It hurts, Master, it really hurts. It seems like there is a hammer inside my head...ah, it hurts..."

The scream was horrific.

The expressions of everyone present changed. Xia Zihan put down the venison and stopped using his chopsticks. Ao Tianchen picked up Concubine Yu and ran out. He also ordered the guards, "Quickly ask the imperial doctor to go to the house."

Ding...

As soon as the door opened, a group of men in black suddenly rushed in from outside the door. Each of them held a big knife in their hands and slashed at anyone they saw.

The guard who opened the door was stabbed in the neck with a knife on the spot, fell to the ground, and bled to death.

"Ah..."

Princess Mingzhu screamed in fright, her beauty turned pale, and she subconsciously dragged Ao Tianchen who was standing in front of her.

A man in black rushed over with a knife raised and chopped at Ao Tianchen's head.

Ao Tianchen held Concubine Yu in his arms, and Princess Mingzhu grabbed her by the clothes. For a moment, she couldn't avoid the big knife.

Seeing the big knife falling on his head, he was about to be killed with one blow.

When Concubine Yu saw it, she was so frightened that she didn't even dare to scream. She was petrified and her mind went blank. However, Princess Mingzhu immediately let go of her hand, staggered back a few steps, and retreated to the window. , hiding behind her cousin.

Princess Qinghui noticed the situation here and shouted in surprise, "Brother Wang, be careful."

Just when Ao Tianchen's life was hanging by a thread, Xia Zihan quickly picked up the empty plate containing steamed monkey brains and threw it at the wrist of the black-clad and masked assassin.

She used 100% of her internal strength to hit it. The killer grunted and the big knife fell to the ground.

Ao Tianchen took the opportunity and threw Concubine Yu aside, "If you want to survive, stand still." Then, he said to Princess Mingzhu's cousin, "Hou Ji, take them away from here, quickly... ”

Then, he raised his fist and got into a fight with the assassin.

At this time, he couldn't let Concubine Yu die, let alone Princess Mingzhu, but there were so many people there that he couldn't take care of them, and he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to protect them.

They have no martial arts skills, so once they fall into the hands of the assassin, he will be passive.

Now, I can only ask Hou Ji.

He knew that Hou Ji had good martial arts skills. Although he was not very good, he could still lead two women to jump out of the window without any problem.

Just when Hou Ji was holding one in each hand and wanted to jump out of the window, suddenly, two men in black flew in from the window, blocking their escape route.

Princess Mingzhu turned pale with fright, and she didn't even have the strength to scream.

Concubine Yu was so frightened that her face turned pale. At this moment, she probably had a splitting headache. She could only hear her moaning non-stop and couldn't care less about being afraid.

Hou Ji had no choice but to resist the two men in black alone, and said to Princess Mingzhu, "Cousin, please find a safe place to hide first."

The private rooms are only this big in total, so you can see them clearly at a glance.

How to hide?

There are people in black everywhere, how can they hide?

……

After Xia Zihan threw a plate, she quickly faced an assassin in black who rushed towards her.

After more than a dozen moves, he cunningly grabbed the opponent's knife, killed the opponent with one blow, and then killed the second assassin.

That decisive method of killing didn't even blink when killing people. Concubine Yu and Princess Mingzhu, who were hiding around, were stunned, and then a chill came out of their hearts.

They never knew that Chu Yu was actually good at martial arts and could kill people even more skillfully than Ao Tianchen.

There was also that cold and murderous aura, one look at it made their hearts tremble with fear.

Especially Concubine Yu, whose body couldn't help but tremble with fear, and even her headache was temporarily forgotten.

Just now she saw Ao Tianchen caring about Xia Zihan and his tone was more gentle than talking to her. She felt jealous and wanted to find someone to embarrass her one day when Xia Zihan went out again.

If a wealthy county owner with a precious status is molested by a group of gangsters in public on the street, her reputation will definitely be ruined, right?

This way, she could vent her anger for herself. Secondly, she can vent her anger for the aunt who loves her the most.

She was very happy to ruin Chu Xuanyu's daughter-in-law-to-be's reputation.

I originally planned to send someone to do this when I got back, but now... Concubine Yu has no thoughts at all.

Wow, is she stupid? She dares to stir up trouble on the head of the murderous female devil?

She even swore that she would never provoke Xia Zihan in the future. Even if she met him halfway, she would take a detour.

Stay away from the female devil, lest she kills you and you don't even know what happened to her.

Silk Grass, Chu Cong and Chu Fei, the four of them, saw that the young master had taken action. They also faced the three or four black-clothed assassins like hungry wolves attacking tigers.

So many people in black were squeezed into the small private room at once, and it was already too crowded to move around.

The four maids lured the assassin out of the private room, and for a while, they were inseparable from each other.

There were eight men in black in total.

One person was killed by Xia Zihan, and there were seven others.

Ao Tianchen fought against one, and Xia Zihan fought against another. Silk Grass and Vanilla's martial arts were low, and they could defeat a man in black. Chu Cang and Chu Fei's martial arts were high, and one person could deal with a man in black.

Hou Ji dealt with one.

There was only one left. Princess Qinghui managed to survive a few moves and then fell into a disadvantage. She was sweating profusely and dodging left and right to avoid the assassin's knife.

Princess Qinghui's martial arts was taught by Chu Cong, and her martial arts methods were similar to Chu Cong's. They were all tricky moves, but the learning time was short and her internal strength was not enough. This period of time was also for practice. After a few hits, her hands became more powerful. No more energy.

Fortunately, Ao Tianchen quickly dealt with the assassin in his hand, quickly rushed to her side, and took the assassin from her hand.

Princess Qinghui finally took a breath.

The commotion here alarmed the guests who were dining on the second floor. Seeing the knife being used and the blood coming out, everyone was so frightened that they ran downstairs and disappeared without even paying for the meal.

The shopkeeper of Baiweiju was so angry that his head hurt and he hurried upstairs. He happened to see Chu Cong's two fingers inserted into the assassin's eyes. The assassin screamed and slashed Chu Cong's arm with the knife in his hand.

Chu Cong kicked the assassin's little brother, causing the assassin to howl like a slaughtered pig in pain.

While you are sick, I will kill you.

Chu Cong picked up the knife and chopped off the man's head with one blow, leaving no one alive.

The shopkeeper was so frightened that he turned pale, ran downstairs and never came back.

But Chu Xang's arm only had a layer of skin broken and a layer of blood dripping out. It was nothing serious.

Then, Xia Zihan killed the assassin in his hand and went to help Silk Grass and Vanilla, while Chu Cong went to help Chu Fei.

I thought that with the help of the five masters and servants of Xia Zihan, the assassination would be over soon. Unexpectedly, before I had a cup of tea, Princess Qinghui suddenly held her head and cried out in pain.

Next, came Hou Ji and Princess Mingzhu.

Then there is Ao Tianchen.

Concubine Yu, on the other hand, had already fainted from the pain.

Xia Zihan was shocked, "Oh no, they are poisoned."

Ao Tianchen and the others were all in agony. They were all weak and even the knives in their hands fell to the ground.

The moment Ao Tianchen was poisoned, he was almost killed by the assassin. Fortunately, Xia Zihan had sharp eyes and quick hands and sneaked up on the assassin in time and hacked him to death.

However, Hou Ji's life was not so good. He was slashed on the back by the assassin. The cut was very deep, and the blood gushed out like a fountain.

Due to excessive blood loss, his face turned as white as snow, and soon he fainted.

Princess Mingzhu was so frightened that she crawled to his side and howled in pain.

This was the first time she had been assassinated since she was so old. It was also the first time she was so panicked, and the first time she was afraid of being on the verge of death.

Her cousin Hou Ji was also implicated.

Ao Tianchen staggered over and fed the pill that Xia Zihan temporarily threw to him into Hou Ji's mouth, "This is a pill made by Jianghu Baishen. I hope it can save his life."

"Master, if something happens to my cousin, how can I explain it to the Hou family?"

"They came to assassinate me. It's me who has caused trouble for you." Ao Tianchen groaned, endured the pain, and said slowly.

Princess Mingzhu burst into tears and cried, "Master, we are all a family, husband and wife, and we are one body. There is nothing that is not involved or not."

Then he cried again, "Master, my head hurts. Are we poisoned?"

Ao Tianchen hummed.

His headache was gradually disappearing, and at the same time, his internal strength was also gradually disappearing.

Although it wasn't obvious, he still felt it.
