Chapter 133 Assassination in the middle of the night
As soon as Mu Feng left, people in the courtyard started whispering, and even the guards were guessing the meaning of King Chu's move.
"Mr. Lang."
Zhang Wulang asked Su Biwen quietly: "The little madman went to the North Hall, what should we do?"
Su Biwen was very calm and said while picking mung beans: "King Chu's order is just for her to go to the North Hall to work, not for her to stay in the North Hall at night."
Hearing this, Zhang Wulang suddenly smiled: "Yes, we still have a chance."
Not far away, Song Zhuoxing saw the smile on Zhang Wulang's face, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
On this day, Cui Hengyue stayed in the North Hall until after dinner, she returned to the North Cave.
The person hiding in the dark hurried back to the North Courtyard and entered Zhang Wulang's room: "The little madman is back, but she looks very tired. Maybe the work in the North Courtyard is very hard."
good chance.
"You can go back to sleep. There is no need to keep an eye on you." Zhang Wulang chased away the people who were following him and happily prepared what he needed for the night.
He was injured, and originally planned to rest for a few days and then kill Cui Hengyue when the injury was better. But Cui Hengyue was so tired and still injured. This was the best time to assassinate him, and he couldn't miss it.
Thinking of this, Zhang Wulang's blood boiled. He could finally help Lang Jun do a big thing.
...
Zi Shi.
Zhang Wulang quietly slipped out of the room, carefully avoiding the guards, and came to the vicinity of the North Cave.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from the bushes nearby. Zhang Wulang suddenly became alert and moved quietly.
With the faint candlelight, he discovered that the black shadow next to the bushes was the shadow of a person, and couldn't help but tighten his right hand.
Approaching the bush, he stabbed it with a sharp bamboo blade without hesitation.
Little did he know that the other party also used bamboo pieces to resist it.
Shock appeared in Zhang Wulang's eyes: "Luo Sanniang, is it you?"
"It's me." Luo Sanniang replied softly.
They both let go of their hands at the same time.
Zhang Wulang couldn't help but look at Luo Sanniang, her face was covered like him, so she couldn't see anything.
"I heard you were seriously injured. Why are you here again tonight?"
Luo Sanniang said calmly: "Aren't you also injured? Then why are you here?"
Zhang Wulang smiled. It seemed that Luo Sanniang, like him, also knew about Cui Hengyue's situation.
"Now that you know it, let's join forces."
"good."
With one more helper, Zhang Wulang had a little more confidence.
So, the two of them sneaked into the North Cave quietly, and when the guard was unprepared, they knocked him unconscious with one palm.
"Walk."
The two raised their hands and pressed on the door. Just as they were about to push the door open, murderous intent came from behind, and they hurriedly turned around to resist.
"It's you."
Their attackers were not masked, and Zhang Wulang recognized Song Zhuoxing and Runzhu at a glance.
"Bang bang!"
Zhang Wulang and Luo Sanniang both landed.
Luo Sanniang lowered her voice and reminded Zhang Wulang: "Don't talk to them, otherwise your identity will be exposed."
"Oh, do you really think you are disguising yourself well?"
Song Zhuoxing showed disdain, pointed at them one by one and read: "Zhang Wulang, Luo Sanniang."
The expressions of the two changed drastically. After looking at each other, they jumped up and rushed towards Song Zhuoxing and Runzhu.
“Don’t overestimate your own capabilities.”
Song Zhuoxing sneered, snatched the bamboo piece from Zhang Wulang's hand, and left a bloodstain on his neck.
At the same time, Runzhu also took the bamboo piece from Luo Sanniang's hand and stabbed it into her shoulder.
"withdraw!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the two quickly retreated.
Song Zhuoxing and Runzhu were about to give chase when Yun Chen and Yun Lin suddenly appeared and blocked their way.
"It's so late, why are you two still outside?"
Seeing the guards who were unconscious on the ground, Yun Chen's face darkened: "You actually injured my people? Tell me, what do you want to do? Do you want to kill Cui Hengyue?"
Song Zhuoxing: "..."
Runzhu: "..."
Do they want to kill Cui Hengyue?
Runzhu said angrily: "If Sanlang and I hadn't arrived in time, Cui Hengyue would have been killed by the assassin.
"Your men were knocked unconscious by assassins with just one move, and you still have the nerve to accuse us unjustly?
"Are all the people under General Mu useless? If you can't protect a little girl, how can you protect your family and country?"
These words angered Yun Chen. He raised his hand to hit Runzhu, but Song Zhuoxing grabbed his wrist.
"What do you want to do?" Yun Chen glared at Song Zhuoxing.
Song Zhuoxing was neither humble nor arrogant, and responded coldly: "This is what I want to ask, Captain Yun, what do you want to do?"
Yun Chen: "..."
Song Zhuoxing added: "King Chu was once the God of War, and General Mu Yun was also a famous general on the battlefield. How can the soldiers under their command be mediocre people?
"And now, the guards in the South Hall are so lax. Miss Cui is being plotted against during the day, and she can't sleep peacefully at night. Should you give her an explanation?
"Are you trying to kill someone with a borrowed knife, or do you have other motives?"
Yun Chen's anger froze.
At this time, Yun Lin took action, grabbed Song Zhuoxing's hand and twisted it, freeing Yun Chen's hand.
Yun Lin looked at Song Zhuoxing coldly: "How to set up defenses in the South Palace is ours.
"The King of Chu has given an order a long time ago. As long as she is willing to stay in the South Palace, we will protect her for the rest of her life.
"Song Xiaolangjun can rest assured that no matter who it is, we will not let her die in the South Hall."
Runzhu sneered.
Since he and Saburo entered the South Hall, two people had died, not to mention one person had died before they entered.
If you can't even protect your own people, how can you protect them?
Song Zhuoxing suddenly said: "Two assassins just wanted to sneak into the North Cave to assassinate Miss Cui. If I guessed correctly, they should be the assassins last night.
"They just left not long ago. If you go and search now, you will definitely catch them."
"Yes." Runzhu agreed: "One of them injured his neck and the other injured his shoulder. Go and search quickly."
Yun Chen's face darkened: "It's not your turn to teach us how to behave.
"Who knows whether what you said is true or not? Maybe you made up the assassin story."
Hearing this, Runzhu was so angry that smoke came out of his nostrils: "You...you don't believe us? Just go and search the Ksitigarbha Pavilion and you will know. What we say is definitely not a lie."
"I will go if you ask me to?" Yun Chen raised his head and said arrogantly: "If I don't go, what can you do?"
"I..." Runzhu raised his fist.
Song Zhuoxing grabbed Runzhu's arm and pressed down: "Don't be impulsive."
Immediately, Song Zhuoxing said to Yun Chen:
