If not, blame you for being unlucky and bumping into something you shouldn't have seen. !" The plot letter held a long sword and forced away several black-clothed assassins.  The broken mouth showed his embarrassment at the moment, and seven or eight assassins from the opposite side were slowly approaching.  Ding ding ding!  The sword light flashed continuously, and the long sword and dagger in Ji Xin's hand blocked continuously. Several times, the black sword light almost stabbed his arm. Facing the moonlight, you can see that the abnormal black light is a poison-quenched sharp blade.  It is a poison that seals the throat when it sees blood.  The drama letter trembled all over, and the whole figure jumped back quickly like a dark shadow, dodging the killing circle in a few breaths.  Whoosh!  A sharp arrow streaked across the night sky, and the assassin who was chasing him trembled, turned his head and fled into the darkness without saying a word.  After running for dozens of steps, when he turned around and saw the traces of the pursuers behind him in the vast night, he stopped and took a deep breath.  clang clang clang!  "There is an assassin! All personnel are dispatched to capture the assassin!" "Capture the assassin!" The silent night was broken by a loud roar. The dark Hou Mansion quickly became brightly lit. The guards in the village were armed with strong bows and sharp blades, and they came in groups.  Flooded to every corner of the Hou Mansion.  When the first group of cavalry rushed out of the gate of the Hou Mansion with torches, two quarters of an hour had passed since the assassination broke out, and the long night was only half over.  The plot writer stared at the vast dark night in a daze, and it was not until a few tall and thick men pulled him in front of Marquis Pingyang that he woke up from his daze.  The appearance of Cao Shi stabilized the hearts of the people in the Hou family.  As soon as he came out, he raised his eyebrows and asked about the whole process carefully. Anyone who was woken up in the middle of the night would not be in a happy mood.  "Wait, you said you know them? Could it be that you were mistaken?" The script replied very definitely: "I have been practicing swordsmanship for more than ten years and my eyesight is very good. I am very familiar with their sword skills.  There is no way he could have overlooked them. Judging from their body shape and skills, they can be sure that those assassins are famous Jianghuai Rangers. "Cao Shi glanced at the crowd around him in confusion and noticed the expressionless Doctor Men.  Wang Meng had a flash of doubt in his heart.  That thought was crushed before it even appeared. He would never believe that Wang Meng would betray him.  Betraying the entire Pingyang Hou Mansion, "Could it be Liu An, the king of Huainan, and Liu Ling from the beginning? No! I had no grudges with them in the past and now. Why do you want to deal with me?" Cao Shi was also a little confused.  He indeed had many enemies, and those who were dissatisfied with him were arrested by the civil and military officials of the entire court. However, his enemies were relatively concentrated, and those who had the ability to influence him were all high-ranking officials and ministers.  Don't be afraid of poisoning and assassination tricks in Chang'an City.  The powerful businessmen who were unable to influence him were not worth mentioning at all, let alone the rangers far away in Jianghuai.  That piece of land happens to be the territory of Huainan King Liu An. It is impossible to say that he is completely at ease. The Huainan King has many talented people, comparable to Wu Wang Liu Bi and Liang Xiao Wang Liu Wu who were very prosperous back then.  King Wu Liu Bi could send assassins to ambush Zhou Yafu on his way to assassinate him. King Xiao Wang Liu Wu of Liang even sent assassins Yang Sheng and Gongsun Gui to assassinate Yuan An.  With the abilities of Huainan King Liu An, and the reputation of Lei Fei, the number one swordsman in Huainan under his command.  There was no pressure at all to carry out several assassinations against Pingyang Houfu.  "What motive does Liu An have to deal with me? Could it be that Liu Ling failed to pursue me and killed me out of love and hatred?" Cao Shi thought this reason was too ridiculous. There is almost no chance that Liu Ling, that dead woman, would be attracted to anyone.  Zero, she only had interests and power in her eyes, and her infatuation with him seemed very abrupt and strange. He estimated that it was probably political speculation in order to gain greater power.  In the same way, it is not easy for her to kill herself. She may regard herself as the most valuable investment opportunity, and will not give up easily or even assassinate her. Such an abrupt assassination without any back-up.  It's almost like a joke. Even if the seven or eight assassins have three heads and six arms, they can't even try to kill through the heavy protection of Pingyang Hou Mansion. The strong bow and arrow net can kill any bird flying over the Hou Mansion.  In single combat, the rangers are unparalleled in the world. In grand battles, the Northern Army of Chang'an is the strongest. Swordsmanship can only deal with people in the market. Archery is the main theme of war.  Ji Xin tilted his head and thought hard, and an idea flashed in his mind: "Unless this is just a silent warning." "Silent warning? Who is warning me? Why are you warning me?" Cao Shi raised his head and glanced at the family officials present.  All of them looked confused and confused, and only three of them remained calm. Yuan Zhong happened to be one of the three.  From beginning to end, he kept his head down the whole time.?Pensive, never intending to express an opinion.  "Master Literary, what do you think?" Yuan Zhong bowed and said: "I think this matter is very strange. These assassins are famous for their skills. Which force do they represent? What is the purpose of warning the Hou Mansion?  These are all unsolved mysteries. I observed the traces of damage on the clothes in the plot and judged that the other party deliberately showed mercy and waited for reinforcements from the Hou Mansion to appear. Such a strange behavior did not look like an assassination at all. Perhaps it was really a warning with unknown meaning.  "If you can hire a well-known Jianghuai ranger to disguise himself as an assassin, he must have a great background. Who could he be?" Cao Shi pondered.  Wang Meng kept a straight face and said nothing. He knew the origins of those people best. A few hours ago, he received a superstitious letter saying hello by name, telling him that he was going to launch a raid on the Marquis Mansion, with the intention of beating the Marquis of Pingyang for doing more.  Be restrained and don't go astray.  He even knew the identities of those people, but he could not attack those assassins because those assassins were all his junior brothers, the proud disciples brought up by his master Ding Gong. He was the proud disciple trained by Ding Gong.  .  He was not sure whether Lei Quilt was among them. Maybe he stayed in Huainan and didn't move, or maybe he was waiting for an opportunity to hide in a dark corner. There was also his seventy-year-old master Ding Gong. He never believed that his master would not be aware of it.  , if the master is also here, things will become extremely complicated.  After working so hard in the middle of the night and failing to catch the assassin, the tired people returned to the Hou Mansion to wait.  Cao Shi had gone to bed early, leaving Wang Meng and Sun Qi responsible for the night watch.  "Brother! Are you okay?" Wang Meng was stunned for a moment, and turned around to see Sun Qi casting a concerned look.  He smiled and shook his head to show that it was okay.  He tried his best to show that he had no distracting thoughts, but his mind drifted to the distance: "Master, where are you now? Are you still persisting?" At the same time, seven or eight tunnels emerged from a dense forest more than ten miles away.  Dark shadow.  We walked through the dense forest and came to an open area. It was a small village, and it was quiet in the dark night.  Suddenly.  The inner door was quietly opened, and the group of black figures entered the inner door without hesitation, and the door slowly merged.  "Master. Fortunately, my disciple has fulfilled his mission and completed it." The man in black took off his mask, revealing faces that were either tough or indifferent.  They are one of the strongest rangers of the Han family in Zonghenghuai.  Their fame only spreads in a small circle, and they are all the proud disciples of Duke Ding.  The old man in white laughed loudly: "Okay! My good disciple is really good at his job. You are all tired. Go down and rest!" The eight people nodded and stood up in silence. They filed out. The young woman sitting beside her frowned.  Wrinkled tightly: "What does Ding Gong mean?" "It's not interesting. I just want to give the Cao family a warning." Ding Gong stroked his beard and said with a smile.  Liu Ling snorted coldly: "I am not a three-year-old child. How can I not see that you have gone all out to transfer a famous ranger from Huaishang to Guanzhong just to teach Pingyang Marquis a lesson. I don't believe it." "You.  If you don't believe it, I can't help it. " "Ding Gong's attitude makes people angry. Liu Ling has always claimed that she is unstoppable, but she really can't stand up to the survivors of the Chu-Han war.  No matter what, this old man is old, well-informed, and ruthless in his methods. He doesn't even want to sell the face of her father, King Liu An of Huainan. Back then, her grandfather, King Liu Chang of Huainan Li, failed to conquer the country several times, and his reputation had already spread far and wide.  Originally, she was living a good life in Chang'an, but Cao Shi was forced to live in a training camp at a racecourse where she dared not come out. But just when she was preparing for the next stage of action, the old man who lived in Guangling County and didn't care about worldly affairs suddenly came to Beijing.  When he entered Chang'an, he also brought 800 of his most famous disciples. When the old man with white clothes and a childlike face appeared in front of her, her mind went blank.  The most terrifying old monster on the Huai River appeared in front of her alive and asked her by name to cooperate with her actions. If she did not cooperate, the consequences would be disastrous.  She couldn¡¯t understand what it felt like for an old man who was almost eighty years old to tell her in a pleasant manner that she must cooperate. Otherwise, her life would be taken, and she couldn¡¯t understand Ding Gong¡¯s purpose of putting her under house arrest.  Liu Ling didn¡¯t understand Ding Gong¡¯s motives or his thoughts, and she couldn¡¯t accept that a kind old man suddenly turned into the most terrifying person in the world. She felt that her three views were being ruthlessly subverted.  Maybe Ding Gong has gone crazy. An old madman led a group of young madmen to stir up trouble in the muddy pond of Chang'an City. Chang'an, which was originally in a mess, became even worse.  "What does this old man mean by disrupting my plans as soon as he arrives in the capital?" Liu Ling was so angry that he almost went crazy.  I really don¡¯t understand Ding Gong¡¯s thoughts, so many young peopleInstead of staying in Guangling County to take care of his old age, he insisted on taking his people to Chang'an, the capital, to disrupt the overall situation, and even threatened him with a tough stance.  Liu Ling had nothing to do with him.  A stubborn old man in his seventies and eighty years old, beauty and temptation are of no use to him, and coercion and inducement are out of the question. Instead, her father Liu An, the king of Huainan, turned to Ding Gong. The evidence of his family's rebellion was seized by Ding Gong. Not only was he not afraid of a  In the slightest, Liu Ling was even more afraid that the old man would go crazy and ask his family to be buried with him.  Rebellion is a serious crime of treason. Even today, when the Yi Tribe and Lianzu have been abolished, it is still difficult to escape the death of the whole family. Liu Ling still has a great youth and has not enjoyed the luxury of food and clothing. She cannot live in vain.  Accompany the old man to die.  But she was under house arrest and couldn't even make a sound. She was really anxious.  Liu Ling rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "I want to know what the purpose of Ding Gong's trip to the capital is? I also want me to prepare for Ding Gong." "You can't help much with what I want to do.  You go down and have a rest." Ding Gong waved his hand to see off the guests.  Liu Ling's face suddenly darkened. The old man made it clear that he would not give her a chance to test the situation, so he grunted and walked out angrily.  The door of the room was closed tightly, and Tan Qing walked out of the shadows.  "Master, all the guards in Zhuangzi are in place. We can take action at any time." Ding Gong smiled and shook his head: "Don't move, hold your troops still for now." "Ah, hold your troops still?" Tan Qing turned around and saw the second senior brother and the second senior brother.  They were also dumbfounded. The two of them had been serving Duke Ding for more than ten years, and they had never heard of an assassin standing still even if he took action.  "If you don't move, you will waste a precious assassination opportunity. Let Pingyang Hou's Mansion adjust the defense patrol system calmly. It will not be that simple to break into Pingyang Hou's Mansion after a few days."  Ding Gong stroked his long beard and smiled: "You want to ask why?" The three people nodded honestly. Liu Ling's question was exactly their doubt. He wasted eight top players to create a decisive kill, but used a weird way to release the water.  After letting go of the drama, the three of them thought it was the kindness of the eight senior brothers and women who came out of the army, but they realized something was wrong when they found Ding Gong's lifeless look.  "Why are you doing this?" Ding Gong laughed and said: "It is to make them fail, and also to expose the foundation of the Huainan Ranger swordsmanship, and those few Huainan dialects are so eye-catching! That brat in the script has a bad head.  He has a very good memory. All eight of your senior brothers have met him. How could he not remember the characteristics of his voice and body shape? "The three of them were shocked: "Could Master mean" "A frame-up.  " Duke Ding stroked his silver beard like a mature old fox, and said with a treacherous smile: "Huainan King Liu An is a cunning guy. He wants to accept all my disciples, but he is not willing to do anything for us. I have long ago  I'm so disgusted with this useless scholar, wouldn't it be great to take this opportunity to pour the dirty water of assassination on the head of Huainan Kingdom? Think about it, what a wonderful idea it was when King Liu An of Huainan sent people to assassinate Shaofu Cao.  !¡± The old man in white laughed almost maniacally. Even the whole Huainan Wang family couldn¡¯t compare to him in conspiracy. The princess of Huainan, Liu Ling, was just a little clever. She was not worthy in front of the assassin leader who was a professional in conspiracy.  However, Liu Ling was unknowingly used and became the key figure in the assassination of Cao Shizhong.  Therefore, he personally planned Liu Ling's sudden disappearance and put the Huainan Princess under house arrest in this small village. No one would have thought that there were eight hundred assassins hidden in this small village. They disguised themselves as old men, women and strong men, and specially brought  Dozens of children came as cover, and a dragnet was set up all over the house. There was no way to escape.  "But Lord Ling is our ally" "Hmph! How much are allies worth? Xiang Yu, the overlord of Western Chu, has allies all over the world. In the end, Gaixia was defeated and died in Wujiang. An alliance without the strength to control its allies will fail.  It¡¯s useless! I can¡¯t control the King of Huainan. If you can¡¯t use it for me, just die like Huainan Li Wang Liu Chang!¡± (To be continued, please search Piao Tian Literature for better and faster updates!
