The Rebirth of the Prince: Starting from Not Being a Doglicker

At dusk, the sun sets in the west.

At the Marquis Shenwei's Mansion, Wang Shishi, who had been in the study for a day, packed up her things and prepared to return home.

"Why didn't Miss Zhou come today?" Su An asked.

"Her." Wang Shishi pointed at her chin and thought for a moment. "She went to Xiangji Temple."

Xiangji Temple is located on Xiangshan Mountain in the suburbs of Beijing. It has beautiful scenery and many ancient sages wrote poems on the stone walls and stone tablets of Xiangji Temple. Therefore, it is highly praised by literati and poets.

Zhou Qingyu did not come to the Marquis' Mansion today, but went to Xiangji Temple with Guo Pu to read poetry.

Su An pondered for a moment.

In his previous life, Zhou Qingyu was assassinated during this period.

He had hinted to Zhou Qingyu in the past few days that although Grand Secretary Zhou and Lord Zhou had political enemies, they had not reached the point where they would fight to the death in such a cruel way.

Therefore, Zhou Qingyu’s assassination should have little to do with the Zhou family’s political enemies.

Su An did not tell Zhou Qingyu to be careful about assassinations. The reason was very simple. He could not explain the source of the information clearly. If the Zhou Mansion could not find the murderer later, people might suspect that all this was a conspiracy of the Shenwei Marquis Mansion.

"She went to Xiangji Temple. Were there many guards outside the capital?" Su An asked.

"It's okay. General Zhang of the Wuwei Camp has a good relationship with Uncle Zhou. He will send some personal soldiers to escort Qingyu and send her back to the capital, just like last time." Wang Shishi said.

General Zhang is a miscellaneous general of the Wuwei Camp, but since they are his personal soldiers, Zhou Qingyu's safety is guaranteed.

With the army and Zhou Mansion experts escorting him, it was unlikely that Zhou Qingyu would be assassinated outside the city.

The inner city of the capital is patrolled by masters from the Ministry of Suppressing Evil. If an assassin attempts to assassinate someone in the inner city, it is very likely that the masters of the Ministry of Suppressing Evil will be summoned before he succeeds, and it will be difficult to evacuate afterwards.

In other words, if Zhou Qingyu was assassinated today in her previous life, then the place where she was assassinated was most likely in the outer city.

"What's wrong? Brother Su An." Wang Shishi was a little confused.

"She might be in danger." Su An didn't explain too much to her.

"Danqing, give me a map."

Su An looked at the map. To get from Zhou Mansion, out of the capital city and to Xiangshan, one had to go through the west gate.

From the west gate to the middle of the inner city, this road in the outer city passes through a slum area where all kinds of people live and the public security is extremely poor.

If you want to kill Zhou Qingyu, arranging an assassin here is the best option.

"Let's go." Su An stood up and left the study.

"Brother Su An, what happened?" Wang Shishi was a little confused.

"No time to explain, follow me."

The capital of the Great Jin Dynasty, except for places like the Shenwei Marquis Mansion, is affected by the powerful's formation.

Under this influence, the actions of cultivators in the middle three realms will be greatly restricted, and they will have to pay a high price, and they will also be easily detected.

However, the cultivators in the lower three realms do not have this concern, so both the assassins and the helpers that Su An plans to bring are limited to the lower three realms, and there will be no cultivators in the middle three realms.

Of course, cultivators in the upper three realms are also not affected by the formation, but cultivators in the upper three realms are rare and they dare not take action openly in the capital.

Su An brought along the masters from the Marquis' Mansion, and a group of dozens of people rode on horses and headed towards the outer city in a mighty procession.

Meanwhile, outside the city.

The Zhou Mansion's team was walking on the main road of the outer city. Compared with the wide and clean roads in the inner city, the streets of the outer city were not only narrower and more cramped, but sewage and feces could be seen everywhere on the streets.

Especially in the slums, you can see many ragged, dirty and smelly beggars sitting under the eaves on both sides of the street.

Guo Pu sat in the carriage and pulled open the curtain. A smell of excrement mixed with decay hit his nose. He frowned, pinched his nose, and looked disgusted.

He looked at the sky outside. The sun had completely set and it was already dark.

Guo Pu was a little excited.

Yesterday he found the second prince and told him his plan.

He planned to invite his junior sister to Xiangji Temple today, and on the way back, he would find someone to arrange an ambush in the outer city. Then he would step forward and stand in front of his junior sister. At this critical moment of life and death, he would gain her love and be touched.

The Second Prince agreed with his plan and introduced him to a group of people, saying that they were capable and reliable.

Guo Pu found the group of people and told them the escort specifications for the convoy.

Two third-level monks, and some second-level monks.

The other side will send out a slightly stronger lineup than this one, and then kill a few of Zhou Mansion’s guards and draw blood, which will scare Junior Sister.

Another person came and pretended to assassinate the junior sister, while he stood in front of her.

In order to show authenticity, Guo Pu decided to take a sword strike head-on, and then pretended to lose blood and faint in the arms of his junior sister.

By then, he won’t be afraid that his junior sister won’t be attracted to him.

Thinking of this, Guo Pu was secretly excited.

The sky was dark, and the Zhou Mansion's motorcade was moving slowly. There were few people on the streets, and the already deep alleys on both sides seemed even darker because of the light.

The sturdy captain of the guard rode on a tall horse, looking into the alley, secretly keeping alert.

Suddenly, a "whoosh" sound was heard, and a scarlet sword energy attacked the team.

The two Zhou Mansion guards on horseback in front of the team had no time to react and were strangled to death by the sword energy along with their horses. Their bodies were torn into pieces and blood splattered everywhere.

Guo Pu felt sick to his stomach when he saw this scene. The assassination he had arranged had come, but he had instructed that the assassination should be made to appear more realistic, but there was no need to be so cruel.

"There is an assassin, protect the lady."

The captain of the guards shouted and leaped off his horse.

He clenched his right fist, and the energy surged from his fist. With one punch, he shattered a sword energy that was attacking Zhou Qingyu's carriage.

The streets were filled with murderous rage.

Sword energy, fist force, and spear edge.

Flame, lightning arc, wind blade.

They attacked the team one after another.

On the houses and in the alleys on both sides of the street, men in black appeared and rushed towards Zhou’s team.

Faced with this premeditated ambush, Zhou Mansion's team was a little confused, but they quickly stopped and started fighting with these men in black.

"Aunt Liao, what's going on?" Zhou Qingyu lifted the car curtain slightly, with a look of surprise on her gentle and pretty face.

The woman in green riding a horse nearby said, "There are assassins, and there are quite a few of them. But don't worry, Miss. We are here..."

The next moment, the voice of the woman in green stopped abruptly, and she looked shocked.

There are many guards in the Zhou Mansion, and they are well-equipped. They all have a certain level of cultivation and cooperate with each other. No matter what, they can fight with these men in black for a while.

However, in the crowd.

A tall fat man in black roared, and his body suddenly swelled up, becoming a full ten feet tall, like a little giant made of fat.

He rushed towards the carriage where Zhou Qingyu was. Although the guards of the Marquis' Mansion along the way were able to stop him a little, they all had broken bones and were bleeding profusely.

A masked woman in black waved her hand and summoned a group of strange babies covered in green.

The babies opened their mouths wide with excitement, revealing their fangs, and pounced on the guards of Zhou Mansion all around them, hugged them and bit them. The guards could not break free and could only scream.

A swordsman in black holding a blood-red sword was fighting with the captain of the guards. The two sides fought back and forth and it was difficult to tell who would win.

Three monks in the third realm.
