Spring in the East Palace

Haha, it seems this person is anxious.

Even the person sent to assassinate him was no ordinary assassin, he was probably a confidant.

The death warriors who are always by his side are the same as the secret guards beside Qin Chuyan.

"Even the place where this person is located is very important in the court?" Shen Muyin continued to ask, "Do you want me to tell you, or do you want to confess yourself?"

The assassin still insisted: "I don't know what you are talking about?"

"Heh." Shen Muyin smiled faintly, "Okay, then I'll say this person lives in Anping Lane in Kyoto, am I right?"

Anping Lane is right next to the most prosperous market in Kyoto. There is only one house here, which belongs to Prince Xuan, and it is a private compound.

If we don’t mention the name of Prince Xuan’s Palace, then Anping Lane is also equivalent to Prince Xuan’s Palace.

The assassin had never expected this, and the shock in his eyes was obvious.

"Did I guess right?" Shen Muyin walked towards the assassin step by step.

The assassin came to his senses: "I don't know what you are talking about! I think you are the one with bad intentions, you dare to doubt everyone! If you spread this, won't the East Palace kill you?"

"You are quite capable. You know how to turn the tables." Shen Muyin laughed softly.

But as she got closer to the assassin, she now understood why the scent she smelled before seemed familiar.

This is also a poison that is almost extinct in the State of Yan.

It smells refreshing, but once it enters your heart, it is deadly.

This is called Soul-Breaking Grass, and it is also a relic of the previous dynasty.

If the dosage is small, it will not be fatal, but it will cause hallucinations and make people completely out of control.

If you want to stay sober, you have to keep taking it, and then you will become addicted and unable to quit, and eventually you will become addicted and face death.

If you take too much, the aroma will be irresistible and you will quickly lose consciousness and then die.

The poison, the soul-breaking grass, is extracted from a plant called poppy.

After being refined by pharmacists, it becomes pills, powders, and various other forms that appear in people's hands.

After Qin Yue boarded the plane, he immediately cut off all the poppy flowers in Yan State to prevent the appearance of this poison.

And no one in Yan State still grows it.

It turns out that the previous dynasty had the Soul-Breaking Grass, which was also introduced from the Western Regions. Now that area is also where people from the previous dynasty were most active.

Therefore, Shen Muyin could judge that they must be people from the previous dynasty.

Shen Muyin did not hesitate and accurately took out the Soul-breaking Grass powder from the assassin's chest: "So, where did you get these things from? There is no way there is any more in the territory of Yan State."

The assassin didn't expect Shen Muyin to attack him.

Shen Muyin smiled faintly, and the assassin felt his scalp tingling, and then fear began to appear in his eyes.

It was true fear, fear at being laughed at by Shen Muyin.

Shen Muyin's hand slid down the assassin's cheek. The assassin was tied up and completely unable to resist.

"What are you going to do?" the assassin asked tremblingly.

"This face is your fake face, isn't it?" Shen Muyin sneered.

The assassin never expected that Shen Muyin could see through him. Then, without giving the assassin any chance to resist, she took off the human skin mask directly.

After wearing a human skin mask for a long time, the human skin has almost blended into the real leather.

When it was torn off, the assassin screamed miserably. Although his face was not unrecognizable, it was still a bloody mess.

"Hehe, the descendant of a general from the previous dynasty." Shen Muyin recognized him directly this time.

The appearance of these people are all on the list of the Eastern Palace.

No wonder the Eastern Palace couldn’t find these people. I’m afraid they had all disguised themselves.

"There was an extremely talented disguise master in the previous dynasty. If I'm not mistaken, he should be your father-in-law." Shen Muyin's words were clear.

Obviously, she has sorted out the relationships between these people.

"You became a death soldier, but you are clearly a general. You clearly have a wife and children. Do you want me to have your wife and children sent to me and torture them to death in front of you?" Shen Muyin's tone became cold, completely different from his previous kindness.

The gloom in Shen Muyin's eyes did not contain any trace of joking, and he clearly put the choice in front of the assassin.

The assassin's expression changed completely.

"You can be tough on yourself, but I won't give up until I achieve my goal." Shen Muyin smiled coldly.

She answered word by word: "If I'm not mistaken, your wife and children live in a house west of Kyoto, right?"

These people were all under Qin Chuyan's surveillance, so Shen Muyin naturally knew everything.

But people are all made of flesh and blood. As a soldier, one must not be affected by emotions. Once he has a wife and children, he will be trapped to death.

The assassin's expression changed: "You...you..."

Obviously, he underestimated Shen Muyin, which led to his current situation.

"Someone come here." Shen Muyin said solemnly.

The assassin did not hesitate this time. The fear of being held in someone's hands caught him off guard.

"I say... I say..." The assassin couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Okay." Shen Muyin said solemnly.

But she didn't say anything extra. She just stood there gloomily, waiting patiently.

At this moment, suddenly, Shen Muyin felt a strong wind coming, and she was caught off guard.

A sharp blade shot towards Shen Muyin.

Another blade had hit the assassin right between his eyebrows. The assassin widened his eyes and fell down.

His blood had turned from bright red to black, and it was obvious that the blade was still highly poisonous.

"There is an assassin, protect the lady." The voice of the secret guard came quickly.

The secret guard quickly came towards Shen Muyin, and the speed of the blade was even faster.

Shen Muyin was unable to dodge, and at this moment, a bright yellow figure suddenly appeared in front of Shen Muyin and quickly hugged Shen Muyin.

The blade was bounced back by the internal force and directly engraved on the wood.

A familiar sandalwood scent wafted through the air, and Shen Muyin knew that Dong Gong had returned.

"Why are you back?" Shen Muyin landed on his feet and then looked towards Donggong.

But the next second, Shen Muyin looked at the fallen assassin with a frown.

"There are other assassins who have infiltrated the villa." Shen Muyin said directly.

"Dead." Dong Gong said succinctly, "Lu Nanhuai dealt with it. He came to kill people to silence them, and he killed you by the way."

Shen Muyin was not surprised. This person was coming for him, and Shen Muyin reacted immediately.

But this is an assassin, not a thief in the East Palace, so it would be much easier.

Qin Chuyan looked down at Shen Muyin who seemed to be thinking about something, and chuckled: "You are really amazing, constantly causing trouble for me. The assassins from this courtyard have always been causing trouble for me, but now, they can also cause trouble for you?"
