Chapter 125 Long live my emperor (12)
Because they were delayed for too long by the bandits, they could have left Yizhou today, but now they have to rest for another night at the post station.
"Sister, sister, who did you learn your martial arts from?"
It was already very late, and after a busy day, Chu Yu was still full of energy and pulled Nan Yue to ask questions.
Anyway, they are not in the Marquis' Mansion, and they are siblings, so no one will say anything to them.
The two of them sat in Chu Yu's room, drinking tea and chatting.
Nan Yue made up a random excuse to fool him, "When I was in the manor, an old man taught me."
“Oh!” Chu Yu blinked his eyes, remembering something, and said excitedly, “Is that the kind of expert who travels everywhere? I didn’t expect that he really exists!”
"Hahaha, I'm lucky I have my sister here today, otherwise it would be terrible. That bandit has such a murderous aura, I still feel like something is wrong..."
The dim candlelight flickered slightly, Nan Yue's eyes flickered, and her hand holding the teacup paused, her attention not focused on Chu Yu at all...
There was a subtle noise coming from outside the house and on the roof...
at some point.
Nan Yue's eyes became fierce, and she threw the teacup in her hand to the side accurately...
The man in black, who had just broken the window and was about to enter the room, felt his hair stand on end. He sensed the danger, but had no time to dodge. A flying teacup hit his forehead, and there was a sound of bones breaking. He lost consciousness before he could figure out what was going on.
Chu Yu's room was on the second floor. The man in black fell to the ground, making a loud noise. Several patrolling officers and soldiers who were chatting lazily in the corner came over to check...
Having been discovered, the intruder no longer tried to hide and simply broke open the door.
In an instant, more than ten masked men in black entered Chu Yu's room.
Fortunately, Chu Yu reacted quickly, drew out the sword at hand and started to fight with someone.
Nan Yue had no weapons to use, so she pulled out a pair of chopsticks from the bamboo tube on the table and held one between each of her fair fingers...
The light blue skirt draws a beautiful and neat curve.
"Shhhhh!"
Amid the sound of the wind, only a few shadows were seen passing by.
The chopsticks were inserted into the masked man's throat accurately with great force...
In the blink of an eye, out of the more than ten men in black, only the one who was entangled with Chu Yu was left, and Nan Yue did not go to help him.
The man in black widened his eyes. Who is this person? Can chopsticks be used as a hidden weapon?
Nan Yue sat down calmly, slowly picked up the teapot and poured water, as if nothing had happened.
But even though she had her back to him, the remaining man in black did not dare to attack her.
If he attacked her by surprise, he would probably be killed before he could even make a move.
At the same time, he was a little confused. Since she was so powerful, why didn't she just get rid of him, but let him fight with Chu Liulang.
Never mind, there was murderous intent in the black-clothed man’s eyes. In that case, let’s complete the mission first!
All of his moves were deadly, and Chu Yu had to use almost all of his skills to barely block them...
"Liu Lang! Yue Niang! Are you okay?"
Even Tian Xiu, who had just fallen asleep, heard the noise, put on his coat, and hurriedly followed the officers and soldiers.
The room was in chaos. Shelves had fallen, curtains had torn, and on the floor lay a mess of black-clad men. Their necks were pierced by a chopstick without exception, and a small pool of blood had formed beneath their bodies...
Nan Yue took a sip of the slightly cold tea and said, "Okay, I don't want to play anymore."
Without even looking at it, she raised her hand and threw the cup over again...
Not knowing where the weapon hit, the man in black felt his entire body go numb and he fell to the ground, unable to get up for a while.
Damn it, he got it!
This girl used him as a tool to train her younger brother!
Chu Yu put the tip of the sword in his hand against his neck, breathing heavily, "Tell me, who sent you here? What's your purpose?"
The man in black was tough. He panted heavily and said, "You will never know..."
Since he had failed, he never thought about surviving.
However, this mission was too frustrating...
A hint of cruelty flashed in his eyes. Chu Yu realized something was wrong and used the tip of the sword to remove the black cloth on his face, but he only saw dark red blood flowing from the corner of his mouth...
The man in black lowered his head and died almost at the moment he committed suicide by taking poison.
"It's a dead soldier." Chu Yu frowned, "Damn it!"
Who trained these assassins?
Who is targeting him again?
Or is it aimed at the Marquis' Mansion?
Chu Yu’s mind turned and he felt a headache. He was really confused about what happened tonight.
A sense of crisis arose in my heart. This was the first assassination. Will there be a next one?
I thought I just needed to be careful of bandits along the way, but I didn't expect...
"Sir, are you okay? It's all because I'm late."
The deputy envoy had obviously just gotten out of bed. He hadn't even put on his shoes and his belt was just tied casually.
Chu Yu was about to say something when she heard her sister say, "You are indeed late."
Nan Yue was playing with the last bamboo chopstick in her hand. The candlelight reflected on her face. She said in a faint voice, "I don't know who you were before, or how you were trained. But now that you have followed Chu Liulang, you must obey my rules and orders."
“If you are still so lazy next time and come after everything has been resolved, then the fate of these assassins will be yours!”
The last sentence suddenly became cold, and the chopsticks pierced through the bun on the deputy envoy's head, cutting off several strands of hair.
The deputy envoy's heartbeat seemed to stop for a moment. He knelt on the ground with weak legs, shaking like a sieve, with beads of sweat dripping from his forehead.
She is just a little girl, but her aura is unmatched, making it impossible for people to resist.
Chu Yu stood silently behind his sister, not thinking at all that she was stealing his power.
Nan Yue raised her eyes and looked at the pale-faced officers and soldiers who had arrived late, and she could see through the emotions in their eyes one by one.
"Once we get to Qi County, I don't care whether you stay or go, but if you don't escort me attentively along the way..."
She sneered and didn't finish her words, but the pause was enough for the officers and soldiers to think of several ways to die.
"Okay, it's getting late." Nan Yue stood up and walked out of the room without even looking at the corpses lying on the ground.
When the girl's light skirt brushed past him, the deputy envoy felt like his heart was about to jump out.
The officers and soldiers did not dare to block the door. They all moved away and dared not breathe too loudly.
Tian Xiu looked a little surprised, but more distressed. Her daughter was not like an ordinary girl. She had gone through so much hardship and suffering to become what she is now...
"Let's go, mother." Nan Yue's voice was much softer when speaking to Tian Xiu.
The deputy envoy stood up only after they left, with the chopsticks still stuck in his hair swaying with his movements, but no one laughed.
"What are you still standing there for? Come and clean up!"
The other officers and soldiers then came over and cleaned up the messy room. Their movements were never so efficient.
