Chapter 751 Replacement
The arrow flew through the air and pierced through the knee of one of the assassins in a flash. The assassin holding the sword fell to the ground in pain and was captured by the secret guards of the Bai Mansion in an instant.
The Bai family guards reacted extremely quickly. Regardless of whether the newcomer was an enemy or a friend, they immediately protected Bai Qingyan and quickly retreated.
Just when the other assassin was distracted, Yue Shi, who came out from nowhere, pierced his abdomen with a sword. When he drew his sword, blood splattered.
Bai Qingyan, standing with his hands behind his back, looked towards the figure standing on the eaves in the distance. After being stunned, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips. When he saw that person jump down, the smile deepened.
Several months have passed, and the war between Dayan and Wei has intensified. She did not expect to meet Xiao Rongyan in this place.
The Bai family’s secret guard looked at Yue Shi, but to his surprise, he did not raise his sword to Yue Shi. Yue Shi thought that he might have to take a few moves to explain first, but the Bai family’s secret guard ignored Yue Shi at all and just kicked the assassin in the face. The assassin’s poisoned teeth were knocked out instantly and fell far away.
The Bai family’s secret guard put away his sword, carried the assassin and quickly walked to Bai Qingyan, clasping his fists: “Miss, only capture one alive!”
Bai Qingyan looked away and saw Yue Shi also put away his sword and walked quickly to Bai Qingyan: “Yue Shi greets the young lady!”
Bai Qingyan nodded to Yue Shi: “Get up!”
After hearing what Bai Qingyan said, the guards of the Bai family let down their guard against Yue Shi, put away their swords, and moved away from Bai Qingyan.
“Why did you and your master suddenly appear here?” There was a faint smile between Bai Qingyan’s eyebrows.
Yue Shi stood up and said with a smile: “The master was going to the capital city, so he went to Shuoyang first, and then he found out that the young lady had already gone to the capital city. It’s a coincidence that we met today…”
Bai Qingyan nodded, and his eyes fell on the captured assassin again: “Is he the Nandu Xianwang’s man?”
The assassin seemed quite surprised, but he did not deny that he was captured alive by Bai Qingyan. After all, his master was dead, and they, the assassins, were just rootless mayflies.
“That’s right!” The assassin looked up and glared at Bai Qingyan with vicious eyes.
The Bai family guard smashed the assassin’s face with the hilt of the sword: “I don’t want your eyes anymore!”
Bai Qingyan raised his hand, signaling the Bai family guards not to do so: “Prince Xian and Liu Ruofu are both dead. Who ordered you to come here?”
The assassin spat out a mouthful of bloody saliva, raised his head and sneered at Bai Qingyan: “I am the assassin of the Liu family. Prince Xian and our princess both died because of you. I am here to take revenge!”
Bai Qingyan nodded: “He is a loyal one.”
“Kill me if you want to! No more nonsense!” said the assassin.
“Okay!” Bai Qingyan nodded. She understood the loyalty of the death warriors. The death warriors should die before their masters. They cannot live alone after their masters die. “You are a loyal servant. I will definitely give you a quick death. Do you have any last words?”
“I want to end my life.” said the assassin.
“Okay.” Bai Qingyan turned around and instructed the guard beside him, “Give him the sword…”
The Bai family guard drew his sword and handed it to the assassin with both hands.
The assassin who was forced to kneel on one knee shook off the Bai family guards who were holding him down, took the sword, and shouted, “Master, young master! I am here!”
After saying that, the assassin raised his sword, jumped up and attacked Bai Qingyan directly, but before he could get close to Bai Qingyan… a cold light flashed, and the assassin’s head rolled to the ground.
The splattering blood mist was so breathtaking under such bright and clear light.
The Bai family guard put away his sword neatly and stood beside Bai Qingyan.
“Bury these three people next to Liu Ruofu!” Bai Qingyan said.
The corpse of Prince Xian naturally did not end up well, but Liu Ruofu… was secretly buried in the suburbs by Lu Baohua, the daughter of Lu Jin. When Bai Jinxiu learned about this, she ordered the secret guards to protect Lu Baohua.
After all, in this world, there are many people who flatter the powerful and look down on the weak, and who try to add icing on the cake. There are few people like Lu Baohua who value friendship and loyalty. Bai Jinxiu was willing to lend a helping hand to Lu Baohua, and later… Bai Jinxiu told Bai Qingyan about this in a letter, and Bai Qingyan was silent for a long time after knowing it.
As the Princess of Nandu, Liu Ruofu was admired and doted on by everyone. Many people claimed to be Liu Ruofu’s close friends, but after her death… only Lu Baohua dared to secretly collect Liu Ruofu’s body. Bai Qingyan admired Lu Baohua.
After the Bai family guards dragged the body away, Xiao Rongyan had already come up from downstairs in a serious manner.
He bowed deeply to Bai Qingyan from a distance, and stood in the distance smiling at Bai Qingyan.
After not seeing him for several months, Xiao Rongyan’s features seemed to have become more resolute and distinct. Although he was still dressed like a gentle gentleman, the ruthlessness in his bones could no longer be concealed, and his innate majesty gradually emerged between his brows.
The Bai family’s secret guards left one after another, and it was obvious that Yue Shi was still standing here without any consideration. The Bai family’s secret guards looked at Yue Shi and said, “What are you still doing here? Go away…”
Yue Shi nodded quickly and left with the Bai family’s secret guards.
There was blood at the door that had not yet been cleaned up. Bai Qingyan took a cloak as invited and walked outside the inn with Xiao Rongyan.
“Now Jin is at war with Daliang, Dayan is attacking Wei, the Southern Rong want to swallow up the Northern Rong, and Xiliang is also restless. I think you should be in Xiliang or try to deal with Wei.”
Bai Qingyan followed Xiao Rongyan and walked slowly and quietly along the path behind the posthouse.
“Originally, we were dealing with the two countries, but King Huai of Wei knew that I was on good terms with the Crown Prince of Jin, so this time I was entrusted by King Huai of Wei to bring the Wei envoy to meet the Crown Prince. I was going to Shuoyang to see you, so the Wei envoy and I split up halfway. Now the Wei envoy… should be almost in Dadu City.” Xiao Rongyan smiled, holding a yellow sheepskin lantern in his hand, “Wei originally wanted to ask Daliang for courage to spy on Dayan, but Daliang and Jin started fighting halfway and they were unable to split up! Wei wanted to ask Xiliang, but… Xiliang decided to send troops to help Beirong after weighing the national strength. Now Wei has been beaten back again and again, so it had no choice but to send envoys to ask Jin for help.”
“Now Jin is caught up in the battle of Daliang. The plague in Huayang and Qinhuai has not been completely eradicated. Jin will start preparing to build a wide canal this month. In addition, the emperor wants to build a nine-story tower. The nine-story tower is a huge project, comparable to building a palace.” Bai Qingyan mentioned this with a cold tone, “Now Jin has been recruiting soldiers. In addition to transferring troops to build the nine-story tower, it is also recruiting civilians. When Huayang and Qinhuai were hit by the epidemic, the emperor was still worried about whether his nine-story tower could continue to be built.”
When Xiao Rongyan heard this, he was silent for a moment and asked, “If the ruler is unkind, someone capable can take his place.”
He suddenly stopped and turned to look at Bai Qingyan, “When does Abao plan to take over?”
