I was reborn and married a villain, and I won by lying down
Chapter 288 Assassination
Zhang Jinnian quickly received the news from Yanyang City in the palace, and he was quite angry when he learned that the Hanyi Guards did not bring Qu Yunchu back.
"A bunch of useless things."
Zhang Jinnian scolded with a sullen face.
"Right now, the entire Crescent Academy is asking His Majesty to come to court before giving up. I wonder what the Chief Superintendent should do?"
Liu Ke frowned worriedly: "Your Majesty dares to issue a blood edict to allow Marquis Changyuan to enter the capital..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhang Jinnian waved his hand disdainfully: "Your Majesty is a smart man. Even before the court, he knows what to say and what not to say."
After a pause, his eyes suddenly darkened: "But we can't keep that girl from the Qu family. Send an order quickly to kill her before His Highness returns to Yanyang City."
Thinking that after so many years of hard work, he would succeed soon, he must not let everything he planned be ruined.
After thinking for a while, he added: "Our family is going to Tanzhou in person. During this period, you must keep an eye on His Majesty and the courtiers for our family."
"How can the chief eunuch risk his life at this time?"
Liu Ke was extremely worried.
Zhang Jinnian raised his eyebrows: "If our family doesn't go, I'm afraid those people in Tanzhou won't be able to handle this errand."
Liu Ke heard this and had no choice but to obey him.
……
The moonlight was like a hook, and Qu Yunchu waited in the house for a whole day and night. On the second night, she suddenly heard some movement in the yard in a daze.
Although she is sleepy, when her alertness is high, she can still feel the slightest movement within a mile.
Listening carefully, she seemed to hear the sound of roof tiles being crushed, and the sound of footsteps approaching from far away.
She held her breath and waited until the footsteps approached, then began to recite the spell silently.
In the blink of an eye, Xitong appeared in front of her eyes.
Seeing that this girl was neatly dressed in the middle of the night, Xitong took another look at some of the mysteries hidden in the room, and immediately guessed that the smelly Taoist nun was in trouble.
"Tell me, do you want a living person or bones?"
Xitong listened to the subtle sounds everywhere, lowered her voice and joked with a smile.
"Of course everyone has to live."
Qu Yunchu savored the smell in the air carefully: "It seems that the people who came here are not only assassins who can only use knives, but also some Taoist priests who know how to do magic. Zhang Jinnian is now in power, and he probably has a lot of people under his command. Talented man, since he knows my current identity, he will definitely come prepared. You don't need to go out and fight with them, you just need to help me protect the formation, and we will wait and see."
Zhang Sheng's army is currently stationed nearby, and he will come to help when the commotion becomes louder.
Xitong knew that she was worried about her own safety and did not show any strength, so she stayed by her side to help her with the formation.
Although he couldn't understand the various formations of Xuanmen, he knew how powerful they were.
His eyes were searching in the dark night, and suddenly he saw a dark shadow running into the courtyard.
Qu Yunchu threw out a talisman unhurriedly. When the talisman turned into flames, the surrounding air immediately condensed into a rolling whirlwind and wrapped the black shadow.
The black shadow immediately let out a scream, and then began to rampage in the air, hitting and clanging everywhere in the yard.
"interesting."
Xitong was a little excited when she saw it, and she was so excited that she also used magic to torture the assassins who broke into the courtyard.
As Qu Yunchu expected, he had just used a few spells when he felt strong resistance around him, making him unable to move.
"It seems that Zhang Jinnian is indeed well prepared, and the Taoist priest he hired is not simple."
<divclass="contentadv">Xitong said with a sigh on his face.
"They must be carrying amulets. If you use magic to deal with them directly, you will only suffer backlash."
Qu Yunchu took out a diamond talisman from his arms and threw it into the courtyard: "If you want to break this power limitation, you have to choose to strike later."
Although the diamond talisman she studied is a defensive talisman, it can absorb the power of others and then fight back.
The last time the ghost king awakened and wanted to kill himself, it was precisely because of this that he couldn't do anything to him.
Pointing to the talisman floating in the air, Qu Yunchu ordered: "You only need to protect the talisman for me, and I will have a way to stop the assassins who come in."
Xitong seemed to understand her intention this time, and only poured all her strength into the diamond talisman. The Taoist priests outside sensed the evil spirit lingering around the diamond talisman, and threw the talisman papers and magic weapons they developed around the diamond talisman. .
More and more power was accumulated near the Vajra Talisman, and a huge whirlpool began to form. Qu Yunchu looked around and found that more and more men in black were pouring into the courtyard. They quickly ignited the Vajra Talisman and heard a loud bang. The sky above the yard exploded.
Under the impact of the powerful energy wave, all the men in black were directly sucked into the air, and screams occurred one after another.
The Taoist priests outside and the men in black who stayed behind were trying their best to fight against the powerful forces in the courtyard. Suddenly, the magic weapons and talismans thrown by everyone bounced back.
The surrounding area was suddenly filled with flames.
"Ah, what's going on?"
Everyone looked confused.
The Taoist priests and assassins were struggling to extinguish the burning flames on their bodies, when they suddenly saw the figures of several riders passing by.
Before many people could react, several rays of cold light flashed through them, and they fell directly to the ground, their heads missing.
Through the firelight that filled the sky, someone recognized Lu Wenqian and shouted in panic: "Evacuate, retreat quickly."
The shouts of killing shook the sky, and soldiers from all directions quickly surrounded him.
The two parties met on a narrow road and fought fiercely. In a matter of seconds, all the Kung Fu assassins were wiped out, and only a few Taoist priests who were greedy for life and feared death were captured alive.
Lu Wenqian didn't have time to interrogate him, so he took Lu Wenjing straight to the courtyard.
Xitong heard that Lu Wenqian was back and disappeared into the dark night.
Qu Yunchu had just withdrawn his formation when he saw Lu Wenqian running in anxiously.
The two looked at each other in silence for a moment. Lu Wenqian slowly walked up to her and said with self-blame: "I came back late."
Qu Yunchu shook his head with a smile and glanced at Lu Wenjing, who was so dusty and embarrassed that his skin could not be seen clearly, knowing that they would have suffered a lot on their way back.
"Second brother, who did this?"
Lu Wenjing didn't understand why, and angrily said: "They all said that the eunuch wanted to harm you and the second sister-in-law, but how is this possible? His old man has always loved his second brother the most, and the second sister-in-law also saved his life."
Along the way back, Lu Wenqian had heard many things going on in the palace. He believed that Zhang Jinnian had placed the emperor under house arrest, and that the emperor had issued a blood edict to leave the palace.
But he really couldn't figure out why Zhang Jinnian sent someone to assassinate his wife.
Just at this moment, Zhang Sheng and Liu Quan also rushed over.
Seeing that everyone in the room was safe, the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Liu Quan glanced at Qu Yunchu secretly and said happily: "As long as it's okay, it's okay."
In front of Lu Wenqian, he couldn't say many words. He just said euphemistically: "The young lady has been frightened for the past few days. Our family has brought a doctor to check the young lady's pulse."
At this time, Lu Wenqian was most worried that his wife would be infected with the fetus, so he quickly ordered the doctor to come in. When the doctor took her pulse, he secretly stuffed a small paper ball into Qu Yunchu's hand while no one was looking.
