The hero bends down

Chu Xiyou finally waited until Beifeng's Southwest Army entered the southern Shanxi border.

There are two people in Beifeng who are thorns in his eyes and thorns in his flesh.

One of them was the Marshal of Protecting the Country of Beifeng.This man broke through his Southern Chu's tens of thousands of troops, and caused Chu Xiyou to be defeated overnight, losing almost all of his troops, and he still stayed on the border of the Northern Seal until now, returning to Southern Chu with no face.

And the other person is Ji Munian.

If it wasn't for Ji Munian, Chu Xiyou wouldn't have lost so badly.

Ji Munian fled when Beifeng attacked the camp, and led him to chase after thousands of miles, but he didn't expect that the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole were behind, and the Southern Chu army had no leader, and was defeated by Beifeng's surprise attack.

If he had been in the army at that time, he might have saved his defeat.

Therefore, Chu Xiyou hates Ji Munian even more than the general who protects the country in Beifeng. If it weren't for this person, he would still be the most powerful prince in Southern Chu. Candidates.And it was this person who single-handedly broke all his plans and made his years of careful planning come to naught.

He mobilized his guards and chased and killed Ji Munian all the way, but this man was like a mouse, hiding all the way, Chu Xiyou didn't say he didn't catch him, and instead lost three guards.

The man was obviously lame, and he wasted a lot of martial arts, but he didn't expect to attack more ruthlessly and more poisonously. The three guards who died were all hit on the head by Ji Munian with a big stone, and their blood and brains collapsed on the ground.

But now, the matter of arresting Ji Munian has to be let go.Someone more important appeared.

Although General Protector did not attract more hatred than Ji Munian, killing him was more effective than killing Ji Munian.

According to his observations and folk rumors in the past few days, it is not difficult to see that Emperor Beifeng attaches great importance to this general who protects the country.Zhong is a taboo surname in Beifeng. Since the emperor gave him the name, and it is exactly the same name as the concubine he killed three years ago, there must be some mystery in it.

Moreover, judging from Ji Munian's previous appearance, he was extremely protective of the general protecting the country.Killing this general will not only affect the Southwest Army and the Dragon Emperor in the court, but also stimulate Ji Munian.

After thinking about it, Chu Xiyou called Xiaowei, his bodyguard, and said, "Xiaowei, tonight you are on standby at the high hill one mile north of He Liangpo."

Xiaowei was puzzled, looked at the prince and said, "Your Highness, you are..."

Chu Xiyou said with a smile: "This hall is going to the Beifeng barracks tonight."

Xiao Wei showed a clear expression and said, "Your Highness, did that Ji Munian run back to the Southwest Army?"

Ever since Ji Munian fled, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been chasing this man.Ji Munian ran east, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince chased east, and Ji Munian ran west, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince would never go in other directions.

"..." Seeing Xiaowei's expression of conviction, Chu Xiyou calmed down his temper.

Then he opened his mouth and said: "This time, this hall is going to assassinate General Beifeng Protecting the Nation."

Xiao Wei let out an "ah", suddenly realized, but then said in surprise: "His Royal Highness is going to assassinate the General Protecting the Country?"

Didn't he go to kill Ji Munian?

Chu Xiyou nodded and said, "That's right, I will go alone in this hall."

Xiaowei turned around in his head before turning to Chu Xiyou's words, and said, "Your Highness, is this too dangerous?"

"Dangerous?" Chu Xiyou listened, and said with a sneer: "The Southwest Army has won a great victory, and just entered Beijing to receive a reward, so it's too late to be happy. There is no foreign trouble, so the army's defenses must be lax."

Hearing that Chu Xiyou's argument was reasonable, Xiao Wei nodded.

"What's more, his No. [-] master in Beifeng has already lost his martial arts by wearing a lute bone. No one in the Southwest Army is my opponent." After saying that, a smile appeared on Chu Xiyou's face, which made people unpredictable.

※※※

At night, a few lights flashed on He Liangpo, flickering on and off.

The army rested, except for the soldiers on duty who patrolled regularly, the entire barracks was quiet, except for the occasional sound of walking from the barracks, and then fell into silence again.

After a patrol passed by, a black figure sprang out from the woods beside He Liangpo, and flew into the air into the fence set up by the barracks.

There was no sound when the shadow landed. He observed the layout of the barracks in the dark, and finally followed the original route and sneaked into one of the tents in the army.

According to previous observations from the outside world at He Liangpo, that tent should be the sleeping place of the general protecting the country.

Chu Xiyou watched for a while in the shadow of two feet away from the tent, and saw that the patrols of soldiers here were stronger than in other places.

He smiled secretly, and slowly pulled out the dagger hidden by the side of his boot.

After the patrolling soldiers circled away, Chu Xiyou quickly entered the tent.

The tent was completely dark, and the air was filled with the smell of ambergris, which was a fine spice tribute, which clearly showed the emperor's love for this general.

Inside the camp, there was still the sound of people breathing.

Chu Xiyou walked softly to the side of the bed, and a sleeping figure could be vaguely seen inside.

A cold glow suddenly appeared in his hand, without hesitation, Chu Xiyou raised the dagger in his hand, and stabbed fiercely in the chest of the sleeping man!

"clang!"

The sound of metal colliding could be heard in the tent, especially abrupt in the silent night.

Chu Xiyou only felt that when he stabbed with the dagger, he bumped into something, which forcibly blocked his castration!

Then, he saw the eyes of people lying on the bed.

A pair of clear eyes are extremely bright in the dark.

Chu Xiyou was startled, he thought about it for a moment, and the true energy burst out from his whole body, gathering towards the dagger in his hand.

The sneak attack failed, this time he will forcibly assassinate him.

That general's martial arts is not as good as his own, so he will not be able to withstand his own blow.

But something unexpected happened.

Chu Xiyou just condensed his true energy, but after a while, the true energy disappeared instantly, and there was a stabbing pain in his dantian.

His face turned pale, and the dagger in his hand shook slightly.

In this short time, the person on the bed exerted strength in his hands, lifted the entire quilt, and a sharp blade flashed in the darkness. It was the precious black iron sword bestowed by the emperor.

Before Chu Xiyou could react, the Yuci Baodao picked up the dagger in his hand and slashed towards his chest.

The movement of swinging the knife was astonishingly fast, Chu Xiyou hastily dodged sideways.The person who wielded the sword seemed to have expected it beforehand, so he changed his posture and went to greet Chu Xiyou one step ahead of Chu Xiyou's movement.

The speed of this fight was really fast. Chu Xiyou heard the sound of the knife being sliced ​​into the flesh with a "poof", and suddenly felt a pain in his chest, followed by a bone-chilling chill in his heart and lungs. Then, he heard his own dagger slashed open. Finally, there was a sound of "clang" falling to the ground.

The situation was settled in an instant.

Someone said to him in the dark: "Prince Chu, Zhong Su has been waiting for you for a long time."
