This assassination came swiftly and unexpectedly.

Whoosh!
Another arrow shot out of the darkness, heading straight for Jiang Shaohua. Jiang Shaohua moved his right hand, and a cold light flew out from his sleeve. With a ding, the cold light and the arrow collided head-on, and both fell to the ground.

There were no telling how many assassins were hiding in the dark, and they took advantage of the chaos to continue shooting arrows.

Qin Hu, Meng Sanbao and other personal guards quickly gathered around, each drawing their swords, using their weapons to block hidden arrows while using their bodies to build a line of defense for their princess.

Chen Jinyu was so frightened that her pretty face turned pale and she huddled on the ground, not daring to move.

Wang Jin was kicked to the ground before, and was in even more of a state of embarrassment. However, lying on the ground was the safest thing at this moment. He didn't care whether it was decent or not.

Jiang Shaohua straightened his back, his eyes as cold as ice, and looked in the direction where the arrow came from. He saw several dark shadows flashing under the eaves a hundred meters away.

When these assassins failed to hit their target, they tried to escape.

When Jiang Shaohua came to Beijing, she brought two hundred guards with her. However, the palace rules were strict, and only five people were allowed to enter and leave the palace with her every day. For several days in a row, she went out of the palace every day, first to the Ministry of Rites, and then to the Ministry of Works. The guards waited outside the palace gate every day to protect her.

There were fifty guards accompanying her to the Ministry of War today. Half of them gathered around her, while the other half followed Song Yuan into the darkness to hunt down the assassin.

The Wucheng Bingmasi detectives who were patrolling nearby were also alarmed and started chasing the assassin with lanterns and weapons in hand.

It’s a long story, but in fact it only took a few blinks of an eye and the assassination ended in failure.

Everyone in the Ministry of Works was alarmed and rushed to the door, but they did not dare to get too close for fear that there might be assassins hiding in the dark who might suddenly shoot them with arrows and they might be injured by mistake.

"Is the princess okay?"

"It's broad daylight! Who is so bold as to assassinate the princess?"

It's already midnight, it's not broad daylight at all. It's clearly a dark and windy night for murder!

Jiang Shaohua's eyes flashed with a cold light, but he did not turn around, still maintaining a vigilant posture. Sure enough, a dark shadow quietly sneaked in from another direction.

The assassin was incredibly strong, and threw a spear with all his might from dozens of meters away. The spear was about three feet long, dark in color, and came swiftly in the dark night. It was indeed a deadly weapon.

Qin Hu rushed forward two steps, and with a thrust of his long sword, he knocked the spear away. The spear was still moving, and it flew diagonally for more than ten meters, hitting the plaque of the Ministry of Works. The plaque shook.

The officials from the Ministry of Industry inside the door cried out in unison, retreated, and found a safe place to hide.

The elderly Minister Zhou squatted down trembling, his voice trembling: "Where on earth did this assassin come from!"

The officials were all so frightened that they had no time to answer. There were some brave craftsmen, but they didn't know how to answer this question.

The capital city was full of nobles and high-ranking officials, and the security was extremely strict. It was shocking that a group of assassins with unknown origins suddenly appeared outside the six ministries.

From Minister Zhou's perspective, he could only barely see a group of guards by stretching his neck. Jiang Shaohua was surrounded by guards, and he couldn't see her current appearance at all.

The strange thing is that Minister Zhou knew that Jiang Shaohua was not frightened by the assassin, and the anger was diffused like a substance. Even Minister Zhou, who was hiding in the corner, smelled the smell of iron and blood.

Soon, three more assassins emerged from the darkness, still with flying spears. In this situation, the defending side was really a bit passive.

I don't know which guard used his body as a shield to block the assassin's attack. Blood splattered from his abdomen, but the guard remained firm and fell down slowly without a sound. Jiang Shaohua's eyes flashed with a strong murderous intent. She quickly leaned over, took the long knife from the seriously injured guard, and took his place.

Qin Hu and Meng Sanbao caught a glimpse of it from the corner of their eyes and were both shocked: "Princess, don't be impulsive!"

Jiang Shaohua said coldly: "This is the Six Ministries, there won't be too many assassins here. If they dare to come and assassinate me, I will make sure they never come back tonight! Kill them all, no need to leave any alive!"

The last sentence flashed with a cold and bloody smell.

Qin Hu, Meng Sanbao and other personal guards were all cheered up and responded loudly.

These assassins were all deadly warriors, extremely skilled and fearless. If they wanted to capture the assassins alive, they would have to pay the price of blood. The princess told them to kill without mercy, which would make the matter much easier.

The guards rushed forward with murderous intent and fought with the four assassins. Several other guards still stayed beside Jiang Shaohua, staring at the dark night vigilantly.

Fortunately, everything went as Jiang Shaohua expected. This is the territory of the six ministries on both sides of the imperial road. No matter how powerful the mastermind who planned this assassination is, it is impossible to send too many people. There were several assassins who escaped, plus the four in front of him, a total of less than ten people.

Wang Jin, who was lying on the ground, raised his head with all his strength: "Is the princess okay?"

Jiang Shaohua didn't look down at Wang Jin, and uttered a few words: "It's okay, the one in trouble is the assassin."

puff!
An assassin was stabbed in the chest by two knives one after another. The blades went through his body, blood gushed out, and he died with a scream.

The other assassin was stabbed in the back and finally rushed to Jiang Shaohua. The assassin's face was covered with a black scarf, so his facial expression could not be seen clearly, but the ferocious and crazy look in his eyes was clearly visible.

As long as he could hurt Jiang Shaohua, it would be worth it even if he died immediately.

He screamed silently in his heart and chopped down with the knife with all his strength.

The next moment, the long sword flew up, taking his right arm with it into the air. Before he even remembered to feel the severe pain, his head flew up.

It turned out that Princess Nanyang was so powerful that he was beheaded in the first encounter.

This was the assassin's last thought before he died, and then he closed his eyes and returned to darkness forever.

Wang Jin saw this scene clearly. Jiang Shaohua wielded a long knife to kill people, which was cruel and beautiful. It was not until the assassin's head fell to the ground that the headless corpse collapsed to the ground.

"Protect the princess!"

The Ministry of Justice, which was several hundred meters away, was completely alarmed. Lanterns and candles were lit, and dozens of constables rushed over. Leading the way was Yang Shilang, who stayed behind in the Ministry of Justice.

Minister Yang glanced and saw the bodies of the four assassins lying on the ground in different tragic ways. The long knife in Jiang Shaohua's hand was still in a killing posture, and blood was dripping from the tip of the knife.

"Princess, I am a step late!" Minister Yang was so frightened that his voice trembled a little.

Jiang Shaohua turned his head, his black eyes as cold as ice and snow: "Minister Yang is not too late. These assassins are all dead. Several other assassins have fled, and Commander Song has led people to chase them."

"Please ask Minister Yang to immediately send someone to carry the assassin's body back to the Ministry of Justice and investigate the assassin's identity and whereabouts." (End of this chapter)
