Rebirth: Splendid Wedding

Chapter 460 The End (9)
Her heart skipped a beat, and she was thinking about how to shout, when a faint voice came.

"Grandson-in-law Xuanyuanzhen has met the Empress Dowager."

She was slightly startled, the candle was lit up, and the appearance of the future man was suddenly reflected.

The Empress Dowager frowned, "What's the matter with you? Why did you break into the Temple of Ciyin late at night?" She was not an ordinary woman, and she had never seen any big scenes, but she felt strange and inexplicable when she saw her in nocturnal attire.

Concubine Yan then knelt down and said, "I'm telling the empress dowager, my grandson didn't intend to offend you, old man Qingxiu, but the situation is really critical, and the guards sent by the empress dowager to guard the temple of Ciyin are tightly guarded, so I had to break in this way See you."

"What's so urgent?"

……

The third watch sounded, and there was flying snow, and the snowflakes were like flakes, dancing quietly in the air.

Ge Ping and Cao Huan left the study room. Ge Ping came to North Vietnam secretly. For convenience, he lived in the West Courtyard of the Prince's Mansion. Tuoba Lin asked Yuanhua to send Cao Huan away, and he sent Ge Ping back to the West Courtyard.

When returning, passing through a corridor, several black shadows suddenly jumped down from the roof, trapping him heavily. Before Tuoba Lin could react, several sword lights struck his face. The attack was fierce, and he didn't have a weapon in his hand, so he had no choice but to dodge for the time being.

Fortunately, his skills are good, but after dozens of moves, he has been stabbed several times. The main reason is that these black-clothed killers have good skills, and they kill each other without leaving a trace of life. It may be difficult for him to escape.

He picked the front one, slashed it with his fleshy palm, wounded the opponent, snatched his weapon, blocked the sword behind him sideways, and then swung the sword across. In an instant, snowflakes flew and the weapons collided.

Yuan Hua, who sent Cao Huan away from the backyard, also returned. Hearing the sound of fighting coming from the front, and seeing the guards guarding their posts in the mansion lying on the side, his heart tightened suddenly, it's too bad!
He immediately took out the tinder and signal flares from his arms, released them into the sky, and then rushed forward quickly, then shouted loudly: "Assassins! There are assassins!"

The assassin leader's martial arts are extremely high, never inferior to Tuoba Rin, and his moves are sharp. Tuoba Rin was slashed twice by him. Although he did not die, it was enough to put him in trouble. Fortunately, Yuan Hua came in time. The guards guarding other courtyards and Tuoba Lin's personal bodyguards rushed over immediately when they saw the signal flare and joined the battle formation.

In this assassination battle, the killer in black was finally repelled. The leader was stabbed twice by Yuan Hua, and was hit by Tuoba Lin's flying knife when retreating. A piece fell from his body. Yuan Hua stepped forward to pick it up. A token engraved with the word Yong.

Although Tuoba Lin was seriously injured, they captured the two killers alive. Yuan Hua was afraid that they would commit suicide by taking poison, so he had someone pinch their jaws to dig out the poison hidden in their teeth.

They were imprisoned in the basement and tortured to extract confessions by the cruelest means. One of the killers couldn't stand the death penalty and died.

It was getting brighter, and the snow outside the window had stopped, and there was still a bloody smell in the cold air. The corpses on the ground were also disposed of, and the blood stains were also covered by snowflakes.

The ground is as white as jade, and the trees and flowers covered with silver make-up have completely wiped away the traces of a life-and-death battle.

The doctor bandaged the wound with medicine for Tuoba Lin, and after explaining some precautions, he exited the study, and Yuan Hua and Ge Ping, who had heard the news, were left in the room.

Tuoba Lin's face was pale, and he half leaned on the head of the bed and asked Yuan Hua, "What did the two killers say?"

"One is dead, and the other refuses to speak." After speaking, Yuan Hua took out the token and handed it to him: "However, this subordinate picked up this thing."

Tuoba Lin took it and took a look, "Isn't this the token of Prince Yong's Mansion? What do you think, Mr. Ge?"

Ge Ping thought for a while, and said: "Having this token does not necessarily mean that the assassin was sent by Prince Yong. Someone may deliberately frame him, but whether he sent it or not, but with this token With the killer captured alive, we can make the facts real. As long as Prince Yong is overthrown and His Highness regains power, the remaining Zhao Ang and Prince Rui will be easy to deal with."
