The target of the assassination is the fox

Chapter 2 First Arrival in Suncheon City

Once the order is accepted, there is no going back.

After everything was ready, at noon this day, I burned incense and solemnly wiped the dark wind that had not drank blood for a long time, until the dagger that had been with me for ten years regained the cold light that a murderous blade should have.Putting the sharp knife into its sheath, packed up the accompanying things, bought a fast horse at the foot of the mountain, and set off towards Shuntian City.

The mountain where I live in seclusion does not belong to Jin'an County, and it is far away from there. If I go to Suncheon City, even if I don't stop fast day and night, it will take five or six days.And along the way, I heard many rumors about the princess intentionally or unintentionally.

After all, it is the object of countless people's longing, and it is normal to be talked about after dinner.I didn't pay much attention to it before, but now that I have paid a little attention, I realize that she is everywhere.

Of course, most of them are good stories about her.For example, in a certain poetry competition, he won the first prize with a group of heroes. At the end of the year, he played chess with foreign envoys to convince the other party. Another example is that he went boating with princes and ladies on Yuming Lake on the night of the mulberry picking festival. At the party, a piece of pipa amazes countless tourists... There is almost no negative criticism, no bad habits, no sex scandal with any son.Zhishu Dalihui Zhilan is a perfect example of the noble children of the dynasty.

I think these beautiful stories have probably been exaggerated several times.Of course, there is no such perfect person in this world. Often, the more perfect a person's appearance is, the more likely it is to be crippled and horrific on the inside.I can't help but maliciously speculate about the unknown side of a princess.

As for these things I heard in the market teahouse, I secretly screened out the available information and kept them in my heart.

There are even many portraits of her for sale along the road, which seems to be quite popular, and this phenomenon is even more common in Shuntian City.Occasionally, when I stopped, I bought a few pictures from several stalls, but the damn thing is that they all look different!

But generally speaking, they are all soft and beautiful types, with moth heads, moth eyebrows, and skin as smooth as snow, and Jianshui's eyes are full of seductive obsequiousness, disastrous to the country and the people, like a vixen.

"Guest officer, I have brought the food you ordered." The knock on the door interrupted my thoughts, and the waiter was waiting outside the door respectfully.At this time, I have already stayed in an ordinary inn in Shuntian City.Of course, I can't live there for a long time, and I have to find another place after two days.

"Come in." I deliberately lowered my voice so as to appear rough.

Xiaoer opened the door and came in, put the food on the table with a smile, looked up and saw the things in my hand, his expression suddenly became more ambiguous, and he smiled while holding the old wooden tray: "Hey, the guest officer also admires Jin'an County. Lord." The words actually revealed the pride of the fellows.

I rolled up the picture scroll calmly: "It was just a moment of curiosity, so I bought some at random."

"Hey." He scratched his head, showing a bit of shyness and annoyance: "Actually, I'm also curious. Although I haven't seen it before, I heard that the princess showed her true face in front of people during the mulberry picking festival not long ago. It's really true." It’s a country and a city. It’s a pity that I’m not there.”

This person is quite familiar, or am I being too kind after pretending to be a frail scholar?I sat down, pretending to be casual and said: "In the future, when the princess goes out again, you can just go and have a look. It's not that there is no chance."

"Hey, guest officer, you may not know." He opened his round eyes wide, "The princess rarely goes out, and even when she travels, she is very secretive, and there are guards around to protect her. How rare is it to see her walk into us Come among these vulgar people. It's like when she goes to the Maple Leaf Temple to offer incense on the eighth day of every month, I don't know how many people are guarding the roadside, but they can only watch the shadow of the carriage from a distance and don't get close."

So you still like her? !I raised my forehead: "Princess Jin'an goes to Maple Leaf Temple on the eighth day of every month?"

"Yeah, I heard it's to ask for marriage haha." The second brother laughed foolishly, then sighed intoxicatedly: "Oh, the princess is so beautiful, even the peonies are not as gorgeous as her, so how can you worry about yourself?" What about her marriage. Eh, but yes, I can't find any man who is worthy of her."

Are peonies the same?I lowered my head and took a sip of tea, slightly pursing my lips.

The face is burning, bright and colorful.It turns out that in the eyes of everyone, Princess Jin'an looks like this.I originally thought that she would be a cold beauty, because I heard that she had rejected the pursuit of many foreign princes, and countless domestic suitors failed to impress her heart, and she has never been in close contact with any man.

Now it's time to talk about marriage, but the princess doesn't nod, even the current emperor doesn't dare to say she's not.

Seeing that I had started to eat, the waiter in the shop tactfully withdrew and did not forget to help bring me to the door.I casually threw those portraits on the bed behind me.After running around day and night for five or six days, I was exhausted and needed a good rest.

I am not in a hurry to act, but to recharge my batteries. First, I will carefully investigate Princess Jin'an, including her interests, likes and dislikes, what she is good at, some places she often goes to, and more unknown things. Part of the amount hehehe... Hey, why am I laughing.

Although the preparations are tedious and laborious, once I fully grasp her information, I will be able to formulate a perfect assassination plan.I will cast an exquisite hunting net when she is unsuspecting, lead her into a desperate situation, and then gracefully take her life, adding another bright stroke to my killer career.

The pursuit of gorgeousness and perfection is my consistent way of assassination.

So after resting for half a day, I started to investigate.

In the days that followed, I hibernated in the dark, or wandered in the market, disguised as a vendor, waiting for the people in the palace to come out to buy things, waiting for the opportunity to say something, and even repeating it on various roads where the princess might travel. Investigate, draw the terrain and routes in that area, and memorize them by heart.As a killer, the last thing I lack is perseverance and patience.

However, the more you investigate, the more frightened you become. This princess is not simple.No, it can be said that the entire Jin Palace is not simple.

Inside the palace, it can be said that there are hidden dragons and crouching tigers. The guards are all excellent in martial arts, and the guards are extremely strict. At night, there are hidden guards guarding every hidden corner, like an iron wall, and it is difficult to find a gap to sneak in.Moreover, the princess's whereabouts have always been secretive, and she is very homely, rarely going out, so far I haven't even seen her face.

The princess is so cautious, and the servants in the mansion have a strict manner of speaking. Even the well-informed hermit who sells news on the rivers and lakes does not know too many details about her.I don't know if she knows martial arts, what is her skill... It seems that she must not act rashly, otherwise she will startle the snake if she is not careful, and the gain outweighs the loss.

The task this time is really tricky.After half a month, there is almost no major progress, and no breakthrough can be found.

But the hard work paid off. Tonight, I finally waited for the opportunity to take some action.
