Qin Dynasty: Sword Asks the Bright Moon
Chapter 117 Who dares to touch the people of the Ai family?
Under the escort of the soldiers and horses of the Lieutenant's Mansion, Yang Ming returned home, picked up Yingge and Hu Ji, and headed directly towards the Meng family.
Yang Ming didn't know who was responsible for the assassination on the long street, but he knew that he had kept a low profile since he came to Xianyang. Except for the recent incident involving the captain of Ganquan Palace, no one he had ever interacted with had been involved. not much.
Today's assassination was most likely because of the captain of Ganquan Palace. Thinking of the Six Swordsmen's fencing formation and the sword that cut through the night, Yang Ming thought a lot.
But the most important thing right now is to find a truly safe place. Since there was the first assassination, who can guarantee that there will not be a second or third time.
After Yang Ming arrived at Meng's house, he was directly taken into a small courtyard near his residence by Meng Tian.
"Now that the enemy is unknown, I can only take shelter with you, Meng Tian. However, I am going to trouble you." Yang Ming explained the purpose of his visit to Meng Tian.
"Brother Yang can think of me Mengtian at a critical moment. This means that you truly regard me as a trustworthy friend who can be trusted in life and death. How can you not find it troublesome? It's not too late for me to be happy. Brother Yang can live here with peace of mind. I We want to see who dares to come to my Meng family to act as an assassin." Meng Tian said sincerely.
"It's just that since Brother Yang came to Xianyang, he has been living in seclusion and has never offended anyone. How could someone assassinate Brother Yang? Is it because of the recent incident of the captain of Ganquan Palace?" Meng Tian asked with concern.
"Don't think too much about this kind of thing. Whoever gains the most from assassinating me is most likely to be the person behind the scenes." Yang Ming said. Thinking of this, Yang Ming couldn't help but think of a name: Lao Ai.
When Lao Ai appeared on the list for the competition, Yang Ming was a little surprised, but then he understood The position of captain is not surprising at all.
He had enough reasons to assassinate Yang Ming. When he thought about Lao Ai's possible identity in this time and space, as well as the six swordsmen, all Yang Ming could think of was a trap.
But, I wonder what role Li Wu played in this matter?
From Li Wu's performance before, Yang Ming could tell that Luo Wang and the people behind it wanted to win over him, but now they are planning to assassinate him...
Are they really the ones caught in the trap? If so, which will in the net is it?
Also, Yu'er, Yang Ming was very surprised when he thought of the sword that Yu'er blocked for him. He knew that Yu'er knew martial arts, and he had already figured it out when he was pretending to be drunk.
But Yang Ming thought about Li Wu's identity again. As a maid, Yu'er was also a person in the trap. It was not surprising that he knew martial arts. But what Yang Ming didn't expect was that Yu'er's martial arts skills far exceeded his own. imagination.
As a maid, Yu'er's martial arts skills are even better than those of Li Wu. You know, Li Wu seems to be just an oiran dancer, but her martial arts skills can rank among the second-rate in the world, and she is also among the top killers in the net. Although Yu'er's martial arts is still above Li Wu's, what is Yu'er's true identity?
"Brother Yang, does he have someone to suspect?" Meng Tian asked. From Yang Ming's words, he could hear that Yang Ming already had someone to suspect.
"Lao Ai." Yang Ming reported the name directly.
"Lao Ai? The person participating in the Ganquan Palace competition is also one of Brother Yang's only two opponents tomorrow?" Although Meng Tian was asking, his expression was full of determination.
"Have you heard of this name too?"
"To be honest, Brother Yang, I also have a list of opponents for this competition. Speaking of which, those people are the real leaders of our Qin army and are worthy of attention." Meng Tian replied.
"The information about Lao Ai is very good. I only know that he has a vague relationship with the Prime Minister's Mansion. The rest is blank. But it is precisely because of the blank that he has more problems. How can there be any real truth? A blank person, unless he is hiding something." Meng Tian analyzed.
"It doesn't seem like he is from the Prime Minister's Mansion." Compared to Meng Tian's suspicion, Yang Ming was completely sure.
"Is the Prime Minister's Office involved in this matter? If that's the case, the position of Colonel of Ganquan Palace..."
Meng Tian showed hesitation when he said this: "If the Prime Minister's Office is eyeing this position, it would be better for Brother Yang to get out as soon as possible."
"It's too early to say this now. Maybe our guess is wrong?" Yang Ming said noncommittally.
I don’t have to accept the position of Captain of Ganquan Palace, but if someone is so mean-spirited as to grab it, that’s another matter. Yang Ming pondered in his heart, already having more murderous intentions.
Meng Tian left soon after, and Yang Ming knocked on the door next door. In the room, there was a vague sense of blood that had not dissipated, which was what was left from the sword wound on Yu'er's shoulder.
At this time, Yu'er was sitting on the bed in his clothes, looking sideways at his injured shoulder. There was no sign of pain between his brows, but a look of thought.
"Thank you so much, Miss Yu'er, for your help." Yang Ming stepped forward and thanked him.
Yu'er turned her face, glanced at Yang Ming, and hummed in her emotionless voice, as if she had no intention of saying anything more.
Li Wu looked at Yang Ming and wanted to explain, but she didn't know how to say it. She could vaguely feel that the people who took action came from the net, but how should she tell Yang Ming these words? Then Yang Ming asked the previous question , how do you know, she is really unable to defend herself.
But if Yang Ming was not told, Yang Ming would be caught off guard and caught in a trap, and Li Wu would be in a dilemma for a while.
"I'm going to sleep." When Li Wu didn't know what to say, Yu'er spoke, and then lay down on his side, leaving Yang Ming with his back.
"Okay, you guys need to rest first." Yang Ming exited the room.
However, the fish facing the inside did not want to sleep as he said. A pair of eyes that seemed darker than the night were still open at this time, looking at the guardrail on the inside of the bed, and it was difficult to see the fluctuations in the eyes. , a look of doubt emerged at this time: Why should I take action? Those are the people who set the trap, why should I help the target of the trap? What was I thinking?
Li Wu lamented over there, not knowing why he was troubled.
When Yang Ming came to Meng Mansion, Lu Qi also welcomed his guests.
"Did it succeed?" Under the dim light, Lu Qi asked the visiting Lao Ai.
"I didn't succeed. Yang Ming's martial arts is higher than I thought. If that's the case, I may not be able to succeed. But just when I was about to succeed, Jing Salamander suddenly took action to help him block a move. ." Lao Ai said with a livid face.
"It didn't succeed? Did that expose it?" Lu Qi's face also became a little ugly.
Once exposed, even his father Lu Buwei would be extremely passive. However, it didn't make sense. Lao Ai's strength was already at the top level, and he brought six swordsmen who were proficient in combined attacks. He shouldn't be able to hurt Yang Ming.
"It shouldn't be exposed. Those six people are all my new swordsmen. They haven't appeared in Luo Wen's list yet, and they don't have Luo Wen's mark on them." Lao Ai said.
"It's just that Jing Salamander's sudden attack was..." Lao Ai muttered, her expression becoming more and more serious. If Jing Salamander hadn't suddenly made a move to block his charged sword, he would have definitely been able to hurt Yang Ming, but now Yang Ming was unscathed.
"Yes, why did Jing Salamander suddenly help Yang Ming? What on earth was she thinking? Is it because she didn't know that it was someone from the net who took action, so..." Lu Qi also looked serious.
"It's better to call her back later and ask her for details." Lao Ai said.
"What about tomorrow's competition?" Lu Qi asked.
"It's just a fight. Although I'm afraid of defeat, I may not be defeated," Lao Ai said.
He is determined to get the position of Colonel Ganquan Palace, because he is not interested in the power of Colonel Ganquan Palace. What he is interested in is the thing behind the Colonel Ganquan Palace. It is an opportunity, and it is an opportunity that allows him to come into contact with the highest power. Opportunity.
The next day, early in the morning, a memorial from the Lieutenant's Mansion appeared on Zhao Ji's desk. Zhao Ji, who was rubbing her eyes still somewhat sleepy, listened to the maid next to her reading aloud, and suddenly put down the palm of her hand that was rubbing her eyes: "Someone Assassinate Yang Ming last night?"
"Reporting to the Queen Mother, the memorial from the Lieutenant's Mansion said so." the palace maid replied.
"Has Yang Ming been injured?" Zhao Ji asked.
"No, Lieutenant Yang asked people from the Lieutenant's Mansion to send him to the Meng Mansion." The palace maid replied.
"Who is it that dares to touch people from the Ai family?" Zhao Ji pondered, with murderous intent already appearing in her brows.
"I ordered the Lieutenant's Mansion that this matter must be investigated strictly. No matter which high-ranking family is involved, the murderer must be found. The Ai family wants to see who is the person who dared to touch Ai after eating the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard. Family member." Zhao Ji suddenly stood up from the bed and said murderously.
"No matter who dares to touch the Ai family, the Ai family will definitely let him die without a burial place."
"yes."
"Also, bring Yang Ming to the Ai family. The Ai family wants to see who else dares to take action with Yang Ming by their side." Zhao Ji ordered.
As soon as Yang Ming arrived at Ganquan Palace, he was intercepted by the chamberlain from Xianyang Palace, and the person who came was the person Yang Ming met yesterday: Zhao Gao.
"The Queen Mother ordered me to take Captain Yang to Xianyang Palace." Zhao Gao explained his purpose to Yang Ming.
"The Queen Mother?" Yang Ming hesitated, and then said: "Excuse me, Brother Zhao."
"I can't do it, I can't do it, but you, Commander Yang, look like you are going to have a great career." Zhao Gao asked Yang Ming to board the carriageway coming from Xianyang Palace.
"How do you say this?" Yang Ming asked.
"Does Lieutenant Yang know what the Queen Mother said when she found out that you were assassinated last night?" Zhao Gao looked at Yang Ming and said with envy.
"Brother Zhao, please make it clear."
"The Queen Mother ordered the lieutenant's office to arrest the murderer, and also said that no matter who dares to touch anyone from the Ai family, the Ai family will definitely let him die without a burial place." Zhao Gao imitated the second half of the sentence vividly. Zhao Ji's voice said.
"Really?" Yang Ming responded, seeming to have seen that beautiful and arrogant figure in his eyes.
Am I going to be protected by a woman? Yang Ming thought about it and felt that it was a bit ridiculous, but he also felt that there was something strange amidst the absurdity.
A friend’s book. The author is a girl. It’s worth reading.
