Chapter 494 Assassination Incident

Astronomical 13 years in late July, night.In the yard of Yoshinaga Ouchi in the castle town of Yamaguchikan.A maid quietly walked to a side door of the yard with an oil lamp in her hand, and then looked around in a daze.

"Du, Du, Du" At this moment, there were three slight trick sounds from outside the side door.

After hearing this voice, the maid almost dropped the oil lamp in her hand to the ground due to excessive panic.After holding on tightly to the oil lamp, the maid opened the wooden bolt of the side door with great vigor.

The moment the side door was opened with a small crack, several black figures flashed in through the crack. The leader looked at the maid, nodded to the maid, and followed the maid to the depths of the courtyard.

In the reception room of the courtyard, Yoshinaga Ouchi and Takamoto Mori were enjoying a Noh play together.Perhaps because of the same reason that he was sent to the Ouchi family Yamaguchikan due to political needs, Ouchi Yoshinaga soon became good friends with Mori Takamoto who stayed at the Yamaguchikan as a hostage.

Tonight, Ouchi Yoshinaga and Mori Takamoto enjoyed the Noh play together under the arrangement of Ouchi Yoshinaga, the emissary sent by the Ouchi family to Zhoufang to improve the relationship between the Ouchi family and the Ouchi family.

"Where are the guards? Why didn't you see a guard?" Kammoto Ohara, who was in his forties, asked suspiciously in a corridor not far from the reception room where Noh was being performed.Just now, Quan Liu, his confidant, came to report that Naito Xingsheng, an important minister of the Ouchi family, had secretly visited and was waiting in a wooden house at this time.So Jianyuan Ohara immediately bid farewell to Ouchi Yoshinaga and hurried over.

During this period of time, Ohara Jianyuan, as the envoy of Otomo's family, can be said to be proud of himself.Suddenly became a very popular person in Ouchi's family.certainly.This is inseparable from his giving gifts everywhere like he is having fun and getting the secret help of Naito Xingsheng, the important minister of the Ouchi family.So he hurried to meet after learning that Naito Xingsheng had come secretly.Just walking along the road, only to find that there is not even a single guard along the way.So the question was raised immediately.

"My lord, Mr. Naito Xingsheng doesn't seem to intend to let the extra people know his secret, so he specially ordered the villain to send the rest away." Quan Liu, the confidant behind him, immediately replied.

"Yeah!" Jianyuan Xiaoyuan didn't doubt that he was there, so he continued on his way.

There are still some lights shining through the wooden windows of the reception room in the distance, catching people's eyes.After walking for a short time, an earthen wall stood quietly in the darkness. On the opposite side, the warehouse was hidden among the trees.Like jagged rocks.Ohara Jianyuan simply took out the turban from his arms.The weather is no longer so hot, and the sweat on my body has dried up.He put on a turban, quickened his pace, and hurried to the door of a wooden house along the shade of willows beside the earthen wall.At this time, oil lamps were burning in the cabin.

"My lord, this is the place." Quan Liu said behind him.

"Squeak!" Ohara Jianyuan nodded, indicating that he knew it, and then pushed the door directly and walked in.

"Master Xiaoyuan Jianyuan, are you finally here? I have been waiting for a long time." Just as Xiaoyuan Jianyuan entered the wooden house, he suddenly felt a cool breeze.Then he was pushed violently from behind, and his mouth was covered at the same time.People were also pushed into the cabin.Finally, he heard an unfamiliar voice.

"Uuuuuuuuuuu..." Ohara Jianyuan writhed in panic when he was suddenly attacked, and kept making noises at the same time.What surprised him the most was that he found that it was his beloved confidant Quan Liu who attacked him from behind.

"Surprised?" Quan Liu's deep voice came from next to his ear, "You shouldn't, you shouldn't treat Lily like that."

"Lily?" Ohara Jianyuan was surprised again.Lily was originally his maid, and once when he was taking a bath, on a whim, he directly occupied Lily who was waiting for him to take a bath.Afterwards, he originally planned to take Lily as a concubine, but he was strongly opposed by the main room. The reason for the opposition was that Lily was the daughter of a farmer.With such an identity, she doesn't even have the qualifications to become Xiao Yuan Jianyuan's concubine.That period of time happened to be when Ouchi Yoshinaga was about to go to the Shufang Yamaguchi Pavilion, so Ohara Kammoto simply sent Lily to Ouchi Yoshinaga to come to Shufang as a personal maid.It's just that he is a little confused now, why did the confidant behind him suddenly mention Lily?

"Lily is my cousin, we got engaged a long time ago. But since you did that to her, I have broken off the engagement with her, and I hope you can treat her well. However, you despise her identity , and sent her here... I am already yours, Lily is yours too, you...you shouldn't be like that..." At this point, Quan Liu was already a little excited, and his speech was a little sluggish. Jianyuan Xiaoyuan's hands became tighter and tighter, and Jianyuan Xiaoyuan even felt that his breathing was not smooth.But compared to the difficulty of breathing, what makes Jianyuan Ohara feel more suffocated is the fact that he just learned.He didn't expect that he accidentally snatched away his beloved and confidant woman.

"Okay, the time is almost up, it's time to send him on the road." Just when Jianyuan Xiaoyuan was still surprised, the person who started talking in the wooden house walked up to Jianyuan Xiaoyuan and said.

"Ummmm..." Jianyuan Xiaohara, who was still in astonishment, immediately had a bad feeling when he heard the words.

With the sound of a sharp object piercing into the flesh, Jianyuan Xiaoyuan suddenly felt a pain in his throat, and then a large amount of liquid flowed out from his neck.The voice he originally made out of nervousness suddenly became indistinct.

"Go with peace of mind, Otomo's family will not be the opponent of our family after all, your lord will come to meet you soon." The person who attacked Jianyuan Xiaoyuan slowly killed the bloody Kunai While wiping on Ohara Jianyuan's clothes, he said in a low voice.

"Ah..." Ohara Jianyuan obviously realized who the person who planned to assassinate him was, he was startled immediately, and after making a sound similar to an exclamation, he died completely.

"Put him down, he has died." The person who made the shot glanced at Quan Liu who was still tightly covering Jianyuan Xiaoyuan's mouth and said.At this time, Quan Liu's left hand covering Xiao Yuan Jianyuan's mouth was already covered with blood.

"Plop!" After quickly throwing Ohara Jianyuan's body on the ground, Quan Liu gathered himself, and then looked at the only other person left in the wooden house.

"Is it the little maid who is looking for your friend?" The other party said with a smile.Quan Liu didn't reply, but still looked at the other side fixedly.

"Don't worry, after bringing us here, she went to the side door where we were waiting."

"Ah?" Quan Liu's expression changed, and he immediately let out an exclamation.

"Hehe, we have dealt with the two guards outside the side door, so it's very safe there." The other party obviously knew what Quan Liu was worried about, so he continued to say with a smile.

Quan Liu let out a long sigh of relief after hearing the words, and then looked at the other party firmly, obviously expecting what the other party would say next.

"Please don't worry, my family will definitely not violate what I promised you. My family has arranged a good residence and enough land for you in Feiqian. You and your close family members have been received at this time. They have settled down there, and tonight you can go there overnight to meet them." The other party finally said.

After getting the most caring promise, Quan Liu nodded, and then looked again at the body of Ohara Jianyuan lying face up on the floor of the wooden house, then turned around and came to the wooden door, opened the wooden door and walked out.

The people behind him also followed Quan Liu out.At this time, outside the wooden house, there were already two people waiting outside.

"The matter has been settled, immediately send someone to rush to report to the lord. In addition, you can also tell Mr. Duanmu that you can start the next plan." The person who walked out of the room said.This person is Hidan of Luo's family, and the other two who are already waiting outside the wooden house are Taketori Sheranmaru and Tao Mitsu Ryutoshi.

On the second day, when the news of the assassination of the envoy who came to make friends with Ouchi reached the ears of Ouchi Yoshitaka, Ouchi Yoshitaka was holding an assessment.

"The Luo family must have sent someone to do this matter." Shan Xingyun said immediately.As soon as Shan Xingyun said this, everyone in the meeting hall immediately fell silent.Even now everyone knows that the relationship between the family and the Luo family is delicate, and the attitude towards the Dayou family is still indifferent. Although the assassination of the envoy of the Dayou family, everyone thinks that the Luo family sent someone to do it, but no one dares to speak out.Now that someone is the first to speak up, they are naturally happy to watch the show.

"Report, my lord, Duanmu Qingzheng, the guest of the Luo family, is seeking to see you." At this moment, the warrior came in to report.

"Let him in." said Ouchi Yoshitaka who was above the main seat.After this period of recuperation, his complexion is much better now than when he just came back from Izumo escape.

"Foreign minister Duanmu Qingzheng pays homage to Dazai Daieru." After receiving permission, Duanmu Qingzheng walked in quickly, and then saluted Ouchi Yoshitaka.

"Kyomasa, why are you here?" After Duanmu Kiyomasa finished his salute, Ouchi Yoshitaka asked directly.

"Master Dazai, the foreign minister heard that the envoy of Ouchi's family was attacked in the mansion last night, so the foreign minister came here specially today to prevent some villains from taking the opportunity to alienate the alliance between the Ouchi family and the Luo family." Duanmu Qingzheng said said pointingly.

"Hmph, stop acting. Are you still planning to continue to deceive our lord?" Just as Duanmu Qingzheng finished speaking, Shan Xingyun interjected without pretending to be self-confident.

"Hahaha." Duanmu Qingzheng smiled heartily when he heard the words.

"Bold, to be rude here, do you regard my family as nothing?" Shan Xingyun said angrily.

"Hehe, if the foreign minister is rude to Dazai Daieru at this time, then you have ignored Dazai Daieru and said something directly, which is the next crime." Duanmu Qingzheng looked directly at Shan Xingyun and said.

"You?" (To be continued...)
