Chapter 258: The Killer Strikes

It's night.

In the middle of summer, the night is accompanied by a cool breeze, and it is even more pleasant to blow into the house.

Zhuang Mingyue, who was sleeping soundly, lay on the bed, except for the shallow chest heaving and the shallow sound of insects chirping outside the house, there was no movement.

"Click"

In the middle of the night, which can be regarded as quiet, suddenly an extremely small and light clicking sound sounded from Zhuang Mingyue's window.

However, after this extremely slight noise, the window where the sound came from suddenly ceased to make any sound.

It's as if the movement just now was just because the wind blew through and inadvertently blew the window.

In this way, the room, which had become extremely quiet again, did not fluctuate at all because of this slight noise.

Finally, the loud window, a moment later, suddenly opened from the outside in.

I saw a black figure, after reaching out to push the window open, he looked at the room that was not bright enough, and quietly looked twice.

Then, after seeing the vague figure of the person on the bed, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and the movement was extremely slow and gentle from the window, and he got into the room.

After the black figure jumped silently from the windowsill to the ground in the room, he slowly raised his head, half-touched his body, and walked forward with one hand on his waist.

The window that was opened was not closed because the man in black was able to leave quickly, but was still half-open.

The full moon outside the house, the bright moonlight shining through the window, fell on the edge of the bed.

Touching the man in black who was close to the bed, he looked at the hand on the edge of the bed in the moonlight, and suddenly held his breath, his eyes narrowed slightly.

I saw that the moment he approached, he directly lifted the falling curtain, and then used the fastest speed to pull out the dagger from the back of the waist, and the knife fell fiercely to the body of the person on the bed.

However, at the moment when he stabbed the dagger in his hand, the person who was asleep on the bed itself, who was still breathing lightly, suddenly turned around and stood up from the inside of the bed with one hand, "Who are you?!" ”

At the moment when the man in black was in a trance because he was not stabbed, Caixia, who had already stood up from the bed, also quickly pulled out the soft sword directly from her waist and rushed directly at the man in black with a loud roar.

Although the man in black was in a trance at that moment because he was not stabbed, it was only a few breaths, and the man in black directly took the dagger back.

When Caixia stabbed the sword over, she slammed her foot and stepped back a few meters.

Caixia, who also didn't stab, saw that the opponent's kung fu was not weak, and it was not so easy to grasp, so she accelerated the attack speed in her hand.

Because Zhuang Mingyue noticed that someone was following her today, Caixia, who was not at ease, would propose this method of exchanging rooms to rest. In order to be able to confuse the enemy's sight, and then take her all the way by surprise.

But what Caixia and Zhuang Mingyue didn't expect was that the man who came to arrest them not only didn't get caught because of an instantaneous trance, but also made a series of reactions very quickly.

And Caixia's kung fu

Although powerful, as a killer who kills for a living, how can kung fu be weak?

Under this stalemate, the two only barely made a draw.

Realizing that it would be unfavorable to continue to take it off like this, Caixia's eyes turned slightly, and then she used a soft sword with her right hand to make a move to pull the flower and a half to confuse the eyes of the man in black.

And the man in black, just as she thought, really moved his gaze and defense to the bells and whistles.

And Caixia took advantage of the moment when the other party's eyes were all away, and then pulled out a small but very sharp dagger from her leg.

"Huh!" Caixia, who directly chose the dagger for melee combat, saw that the sharp part of the dagger was about to fall on the chest of the man in black.

But the man in black, who didn't want to find out about it the same, not only did he not choose to meet the enemy when he knew that he couldn't dodge, but even directly chose to bear the knife with his right arm, "hiss"

Caixia, who stabbed the dagger into it, just wanted to pull out the dagger and insert it into the opponent's chest, when he saw that the man in black actually slapped Caixia's head directly with a palm.

The sensitive Caixia stepped back directly under her feet. And the moment the man in black stayed away, he directly chose to leave with a dagger.

Although the dagger was indeed stabbed, it was not important because it stabbed the right arm, and the man in black did not complain to me for pulling it out, but used him to stop the bleeding.

So at this moment, the man in black directly endured this pain and flew out of the direction of the window, but with a few light steps under his feet, the man in black completely disappeared into the courtyard.

"Stop!" Caixia, who made a loud noise, immediately wanted to follow over and catch the man in black.

However, just as she wanted to cross the courtyard wall, she suddenly heard Zhuang Mingyue's voice behind her, "Caixia is enough, don't continue to chase, although that person only came alone, it is inevitable that he will have someone to answer outside." ”

Hearing Zhuang Mingyue say this, Caixia naturally wouldn't continue to chase, "Miss, it's fortunate that you noticed that someone was following you today, otherwise, this person would have really been able to do it today!" ”

Thinking of this, Caixia couldn't help but feel a little flustered, because this person's skills today are powerful. And if none of them had found out about this man, with all that he had done for the assassination tonight, even if she slept next door, she would probably not have heard of it at all.

And in this case, how could Zhuang Mingyue, who was already asleep in the middle of the night, be able to react so quickly and then run away directly?

Also in retrospect, Zhuang Mingyue, who was really a little afraid, sighed with a slight frown: "Today is just a little bit, and this has already caused some people in the court to look down on me, it's really filthy!" ”

Thinking of Zhuang Mingyue here, she couldn't help but feel that people's hearts were not ancient and shook her head.

Although she has done a good job, she will be hurt by this group of people. But I really never thought that this group of people couldn't hold back like this, but it was just today's Jiangnan plague.

The emperor didn't even punish them for some things, but they couldn't just swallow the gold, silver and jewels smoothly.

has already made them murderous, "Caixia, I'm afraid I can't do without you in the future." ”

Zhuang Mingyue, who said this, seemed to be joking, but she understood it in her own heart. This assassination attempt failed, so they are definitely not the kind of people who will give up easily.

But he won't be stupid enough to continue to assassinate unrelentingly when he just misses.

Thinking of Zhuang Mingyue here, she decided to make up her mind, "Caixia, in the future, we will sleep in the same room, and take turns sleeping at night, just to make you cry." ”

"What are you talking about, since I am Miss's slave, I should naturally protect you, I will move the mattress into tomorrow, Miss, you can sleep with confidence."

Although the two slept in the same bed at night, in fact, both of them never fell asleep because of what happened tonight.

The night passed in this silent hour.

Following.

It's just after noon, and before Zhuang Mingyue could transport the newly made goods to the beauty and health center, she suddenly heard a unique sound.

"The Emperor has arrived"

Zhuang Mingyue Caixia, who was packing up her things, never thought that the emperor would come at such a time. The two glanced at each other, and then knelt down directly, "Greetings to Your Majesty, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" ”

Because the emperor traveled privately, whether it was the eunuch who shouted, or Zhuang Mingyue and Caixia who saluted, the voices they shouted were all small.

Looking at Zhuang Mingyue who was kneeling on the ground, the emperor hurriedly stepped forward and stretched out his hand to help Zhuang Mingyue up, "Zhuang Aiqing is flat." ”

Zhuang Mingyue, who had already resigned, suddenly heard the emperor call her like this, and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and only reacted again after a while, "Your Majesty? The little girl has now recovered her civil status, and His Majesty calls the little girl like this really makes the little girl ......"

Zhuang Mingyue's refusal was not finished before she was directly interrupted by the emperor's voice, "Zhuang Aiqing doesn't need to say much, even if you have resigned, but in my heart, you are still Zhuang Aiqing, my right-hand man." ”

didn't expect the emperor to put himself in the position of his right-hand Zhuang Mingyue, and he couldn't help but gasp.

"Actually, there is nothing to hide, I came today to see how your life is when you resign, or I want to be with you, what do you think of the things above the court yesterday?"

Zhuang Mingyue, who was being asked, looked at the look of urgency in the emperor's eyes, and understood the real reason why the emperor came over today.

I saw Zhuang Mingyue speaking to Caixia beside her: "Caixia, go prepare tea, I have something to talk about with Your Majesty." ”

Then Zhuang Mingyue stretched out her hand and motioned for the emperor to walk in the direction of the house, "Your Majesty, please come with me." ”

Since it is about national affairs, it is naturally impossible for Zhuang Mingyue to ignore it, and it is impossible to talk about things in such a big and arrogant place.

So when Zhuang Mingyue knew what the emperor came for today.

Without the slightest hesitation, he brought the emperor into the house, and except for Caixia, who came in to deliver a pot of tea, no one ever entered.

And Zhuang Mingyue was secretly spying with the emperor, and during this time, the two chatted for a long time about corruption.
