Start by scolding the empress

Chapter 102 First Battle
However, Chen Yi still did not relax his vigilance.

Chen Yi still remembered the tactics those people talked about. This was just a strategy to delay the attack, and there was still a backhand.

However, the Empress was not in any danger for the time being. The addition of these soldiers greatly eased the crowd's anxiety.

The people around gradually came back to their senses.

Smart people started to flee around instead of crowding in the middle.

This also speeded up Chen Yi's progress, but at the same time, it also made way for those assassins, who recklessly fought towards the position of the empress.

Chen Yi finally came to the empress' side after a few steps.

Seeing Chen Yi's eyes light up, Lin Shilang stretched out his hand and pulled Chen Yi to hide behind the guards.

"Where did you go just now, I thought you were scattered by the crowd, come here quickly, there is an assassin for some reason, are you okay?"

Chen Yi shook his head and glanced at the ministers around him.

Finding that none of them were injured, he walked to the empress and whispered.

"When I was at the door just now, I heard their conversation. This is just one team, and there is another team who intends to lure the guards away and kill His Majesty alone. Your Majesty, don't leave these guards."

The empress was stunned for a moment and looked up at Chen Yi.

Seeing that Chen Yi didn't want to lie, he thought about it and nodded.

"Don't worry, I understand, do you know who the mastermind is?"

Chen Yi had no way to directly say that he was from the Liao Kingdom. After all, he was just eavesdropping. How could he know so clearly whether he was involved or not? It couldn't be said that the system told him.

"I don't know who they are, but their accents are a bit strange. They shouldn't be from our Dawu Kingdom, and their accents don't sound like Xuanluo Kingdom. When I was at the border, I saw prisoners from Xuanluo Kingdom, and their accents were different. Same."

That's all Chen Yi can reveal, and the rest depends on whether the empress can figure it out.

There are more and more assassins around, growing like leeks one after another.

The number of guards responsible for protecting the empress is not too many, and they did not expect that there would be assassins. It will definitely take some time to mobilize the troops at this time.

At this time, a guard came over, his face was still stained with blood from the fight.

"Your Majesty! I'll take you out of here. There are too many killers here. I'm afraid they won't be able to last long. It just so happens that their guards over there are weak. I'm confident I can break through."

Chen Yi frowned when he heard this, and immediately took a step forward.

Stopped the guard: "No, I just heard that they are diverting the tiger away from the mountain. If His Majesty is allowed to leave alone, there will be another team waiting. They should have exposed that flaw on purpose."

When the guard heard what Chen Yi said, there was a hint of anxiety and suspicion on his face.

"Now is not the time to be willful, how do you know their plans, and you have also seen that if His Majesty doesn't leave, this place won't last long."

Chen Yi did know that most of the surrounding guards were injured and were struggling to support them.

But the assassins continued to send more manpower.

Under the obvious situation of ebb and flow, it is still dangerous to stay here in the end. A flash of anger flashed in Chen Yi's heart. If he didn't leave at this time, the empress would not be safe.

The hateful thing is that he doesn't have lightness kung fu, if he has lightness kung fu, it would be fine to take the empress and leave here.

Chen Yi raised his head and looked around, suddenly his eyes lit up, and he pointed to the side.

"Let's go, let's go there, we can hide there for a while, and we can support the arrival of reinforcements."

The guard who had just argued with Chen Yi followed Chen Yi's line of sight and nodded, with a flash of appreciation in his eyes: "I will cover you in the past, and your Majesty's safety will be entrusted to you."

After the guard finished speaking, he turned his head and got entangled with the attacking killer.

Chen Yi said to several ministers nearby.

"We can go there, it's safer there, you are protecting His Majesty, my queen."

After Chen Yi finished speaking, regardless of other people's reactions, he drew his knife from the hand of the dead guard on the ground to cover the retreat of the others.

The place Chen Yi pointed to was a courtyard, which seemed to be a woodshed.

It's just that the other firewood houses are a little different. It should be that the owner has a strong awareness of fire prevention. Both sides of the room are made of stone slabs. Chen Yi reckons that this should be three sides of stone slabs.

So as long as the position of the door is protected, other places are safe and difficult to break through.

Chen Yi quietly retreated while covering. The empress' movement obviously attracted the attention of other assassins. Chen Yi even saw a trace of anger flashing across several of the assassins' faces.

It is estimated that they did not expect that the Empress did not escape from the loopholes they deliberately exposed, but hid instead.

Chen Yi saw several assassins around him exchanged glances with each other, and rushed towards him at the same time. Chen Yi gritted his teeth, clenched the sword in his hand, and planned to meet him.

Although Chen Yi had learned swordsmanship, he had practiced it by himself and had never fought against anyone.

It can be said that Chen Yi has no confidence in his swordsmanship at all, but now that he has reached the situation, he has to fight.

Chen Yi calmed down, recalling the sword moves he had learned.

Seeing the assassins rushing over, he pre-empted and rushed towards them.

Chen Yi didn't care about their moves, and used his moves on his own. Later, Chen Yi was surprised to find that all the assassins who surrounded him fell to the ground.

Chen Yi took a few steps back and saw the wounds on their bodies.

Looking at the blood on the knife in his hand, he was a little surprised.

Unexpectedly, the swordsmanship he practiced was so powerful that he knocked two assassins to the ground in one encounter.

Although he was only injured, it was also a great encouragement to Chen Yi.

Chen Yi can be said to be a person who has never used a sword or gun. At most, he learned Tai Chi in junior high school or high school. It is conceivable that he has become a master now.

How excited I was, but the assassins around me didn't seem to expect it.

A civil servant in the imperial court even knew martial arts. At this time, three assassins rushed over.

Chen Yi's expression changed, until now it was not the time for him to be nervous, so he tried his best to build himself up mentally, so that he could calm down and deal with it calmly.

If you don't calm down, you will lose your life, Chen Yi exhaled lightly.

Also preemptively, Chen Yi tried hard to control the sword in his hand, implying to himself that he could win more with less, Chen Yi suddenly felt as if his body had developed muscle memory.

He didn't need to think too much, the moves came out naturally.

Soon, another assassin was dealt with, and the remaining two looked at each other and rushed over at the same time.
