Chapter 97 Moon Night Assassin
###097 Moonlight Assassin
The summer breeze carries the fragrance of flowers, and the light rain in the south washes the scenery.

The begonias support the willows and the blue waves turn, and the orioles sway to lead the sheng reeds.

This song sings about Hezhou, a prosperous place in the southeast.After Hezhou and further south is Tongling. Most of the people in Hezhou are Qi people from their ancestors. The population is pure, so the folk customs are the best in the southeast.

Although the prosperity of Hezhou is not as good as that of Jinling, it is still beautiful and beautiful, and the roads are full of sunshine.If the warm breeze makes tourists drunk, Hezhou is better than Jinling. Compared with Jinling, Hezhou has a warmer climate and shorter winter.

After rushing to Hezhou with all their strength, the third prince and his party of more than [-] people were exhausted. They wanted to have a good rest here for a day and then go all out to conquer Tongling.At this speed, the time to reach Yan State can be one day earlier than the emperor's scheduled time.Xiao Jin did not dare to neglect in the slightest, so he asked his envoy Liu Wuleng to carry the Tianqiong Liuhua Tube with him at all times, and he could not leave it even if he fell asleep in the car.

Although Liu Wuleng's name doesn't sound like a smart person, and his speech is a bit stammering, he is still reliable.For Xiao Jin, except for Wei Bing and Ye Xiaolou, all of them may have been deliberately arranged by the eldest prince or Princess Qi to be around him for various purposes. However, he had been in the palace before, and Emperor Qi The most the concubine can do is to make him unappreciated in front of the emperor, weaken his ability, and make the current emperor's heart tend to the eldest prince Xiao Yu.

Such tactics are common among the royal family, and Xiao Jin has long been accustomed to them over the years. As long as he is careful and does not compete for fame and fortune, he can still live a stable life.

That's all Xiao Jin wanted in his heart.Sima Taishi's prediction based on the Nine Stars of the Big Dipper that the two sons would win the rightful son was just a joke.

However, some people made a fuss about this joke, and some people did not like this joke, and Sima Taishi died because of it.

The struggle for power is more fierce than the poison of demons and evil spirits. Since the beginning of the struggle for city territory, there has never been a time when it has not turned the world upside down, with armies facing each other, and the people living in dire straits.

He just wants to live a stable life, and he also just wants the people to live a stable life. He hopes that everyone in the world can understand that Xiao Jin is not interested in the throne. He will never compete with the eldest prince for the identity of the prince, and he will never compete for power. Collude with party members, recruit clients, and engage in intrigues.

He read because he liked to know the stories of people in the past, the teachings of Confucius and Mencius, and the style of other scholars.

He plays the piano because his lonely heart only listens to himself.

He never complains because he never does anything useless.

He has only one friend, and that person is as disinterested as he is.Sometimes Xiao Jin would wonder if that person became emperor one day, would he be a good emperor and make everyone's life interesting.

Thinking of this, he smiled, which was reflected on the tent.

The moonlight is slanting and the curtains are moving, which is a good time to kill.

Assassins kill people, thieves steal treasures, each performs his or her duties.

When the wind rises, the knife falls.

No blood was spilled.

There were two more people in the tent, one wearing a mask and the other covering his face with a cloth. Both of them used knives.

It's the same sword, one is fast and strange, the moves are spicy, one move is just passed, and then another, one move is invincible, and then three moves are deadly, and the moves are compelling.

The other, flat out, flat block, flat moves, neither rush nor slow.

The ground covered with gravel and rough stones shone brightly under the moonlight. During the flow of the sword light, the cold sword aura met the flying rainbow sword shadow.

Wei Bing raised his sword to protect Xiao Jin and watched the battle from a distance. Xiao Jin was calm, as if the person the assassin wanted to kill was not him, or as if the assassin just went to the wrong place and broke into his camp by mistake.

"Nightingale's attack was too slow, why didn't you kill him with one strike?" Wei Bing said anxiously.

Xiao Jin responded softly: "Nightingale's Qingjiao sword technique emphasizes both offense and defense. If the opponent cannot hurt Nightingale within three rounds, this person will not be able to gain any advantage even if he fights Nightingale until dawn. The same two knives, He struck out viciously and rushed towards the vital point. Although his face was covered, you could tell at a glance that he was a young man who didn't understand how to use retreat to attack."

"You mean Nightingale is delaying on purpose?" Wei Bing asked confused.

Xiao Jin nodded approvingly. "Why?"

"The dead are speechless." There was still approval in his eyes.

Now that Nightingale has arrived, Ye Xiaolou may not come.Thinking of this, Xiao Jin's eyes flashed with a hint of sadness.

The knife is sheathed.A sword that cannot be sheathed can only have one end.

Lost master forever.

Xiao Jin looked serious. Just when he was about to talk to Nightingale, a small group of soldiers hurried over, holding torches and lowering their heads and saying, "His Royal Highness, Third Prince, are you okay?"

Seeing the lazy and sleepy looks of the soldiers, Xiao Jin said angrily: "It's okay, tell General Lin not to come. There's nothing going on here. He's just a passing gangster. He's dead. Go and see what's going on with Special Envoy Liu." What's the difference."

After hearing what the third prince had said, and seeing that he was safe and sound, the small group of soldiers turned around and left.Wei Bing was so angry that he scolded: "You still want to defeat the Southern Wu Navy? The Southern Wu has been training troops every day for more than ten years, and those soldiers are all masters of water fishing. They have strong muscles and bones, but with their lazy looks, if there is a war, I am afraid they will never return."

Xiao Jin didn't stop him, he just allowed Wei Bing to complain. When Nightingale appeared in the camp again like a ghost, Xiao Jin first asked Nightingale if she was injured, and then asked Ye Xiaolou if something had happened to him.

Nightingale shook her head for both questions.

"Your Highness, I did not kill him." Nightingale said sincerely.

"I know."

"He died by himself, in a very strange way."

There was a hint of coldness in Nightingale's eyes.Pulling out the cast iron knife, the tip of the knife was pointed directly at the assassin's chest. With a slight lift, the tight black top spread out in all directions, revealing a bright red patch on the chest.

"what happened?"

Xiao Jin frowned, not understanding the connection between the color of this chest and what Nightingale said.

"Let me explain to you that the wound under the red patch is not from the fight with me today, but from a day or two ago."

"It's not difficult to understand. Maybe he was performing other assassination missions yesterday. It's normal for people who kill for a living to have injuries on their bodies."

Wei Bing's words are not unreasonable.Then Nightingale added: "If it is an ordinary injury, it can naturally be explained this way, but the bruise under the skin was not injured by external force, nor was it caused by the energy of the sword. Instead, it slowly grew out of his body."

Xiao Jin seemed to understand what Nightingale meant. He glanced outside the tent to make sure there was no one around, then lowered his voice and said, "Do you mean it's poison?"

Nightingale nodded slightly, "I suspect the same thing. There is a [-]% chance that it is a six-point Gu."
