Chapter 607: Abandoned Child (11)
"Seventeen, are you ready?"
"Okay, okay, I'll treat you to a delicious meal in a few days when I have time. Thank you for your hard work, Brother Ye Qi."
Gu Yuxi gave Ye Qi a back massage. This kind of labor comes without any delay, and it is easy and safe.
"Okay, okay. When you go to the finish line, try to avoid Ye San's group. They are probably..."
"you are the best!"
Gu Yuxi started walking towards the finish line carrying the ginseng. She still had a lot of experience to go through. She was going to Xin Chao soon because the third princess of Xin Chao, whose finger was broken last time, needed her blood for medicine.
This is a scene, she must act as if there is no Toro medicine man in the world, and also allow herself to find the mission target safely in the future.
Four years later…
"His Royal Highness Prince Jing was framed by a villain on the battlefield, and now he is a useless man sitting in a wheelchair and unable to take care of himself."
"Let's not talk about this anymore. The former queen is under house arrest in the cold palace. Even if our dynasty won a battle, we lost the general who always won."
"We can't win. Prince Xiao is the best among men. If his reinforcements hadn't arrived in time, all of us ordinary people would have been killed by the enemy."
"Prince Jing asked to leave the imperial capital and go to the southern border to guard the barbarian land. Now Concubine Xiao will soon become the empress, and Prince Xiao will soon become the crown prince. They have already moved into the East Palace."
In a courtyard at the southern border, a masked man exclaimed, "Be gentle, I can't bear it anymore."
He Wen then reduced the intensity of the massage, and the man called out softly: "Seventeen!"
Hearing this, the woman in black wearing a black mask took off the man's mask. Wu Dejing, who was in a wheelchair, said to the man next to him, "I don't have time to watch your performance recently. Is there any opportunity to arrange for you to go in at Xin Dynasty Imperial City?"
"It's well-guarded over there, but in recent years the emperor has been obsessed with beauty and alchemy, partying every night, and his health has been damaged."
"Well, continue to pay attention to the situation over there. The people in Yuanhongyuan and other places should be smarter and make sure to find out Chengyin's situation as soon as possible."
"Hey, why bother? There are more than a dozen hostages in Xin Dynasty. You and I don't know the overall situation. There are too many experts over there. You and I can't get in. But those hostages are bullied by the royal family, Cheng Yin..."
"I will take revenge one day!"
"It's also difficult to support Ye Qi who's refining the elixir. Although you've secretly won over small countries like Toro, the higher-ups are already alert. The best strategy is to keep your troops in place."
"Cheng Yin is my brother. I said I would take him home. I also want to avenge the Xin Dynasty for killing my uncle and others. Besides, the world will eventually unite after a long period of division. Why should the Xin family control this?"
"Right now we can only wait and slowly disintegrate the enemy's power. Let's not talk about this anymore. I have a channel to arrange for palace maids to enter the palace. You must be ready to assist."
"Really?" Wu Dejing's eyes lit up.
"Ah."
After that person left, Wu Dejing called Ye Shiqi to the study alone and said, "Shiqi, I signed an agreement with you before. You want to know who killed Grandma Baicao. I will tell you that the person is Concubine Xiao. Do you know what to do?"
"Thank you for the reminder, Master."
"After the matter is done, you will go to Xinchaolinyundu. Be sure to be smart and find out the situation of Prince Yin."
"Yes!"
Ye Shiqi left and began to take real revenge. Concubine Xiao was in charge of all matters in the harem. The position of queen had been vacant for two years. If Concubine Xiao died, the water in the court would become more turbid.
Seeing that Ye Shiqi had left, Wu Dejing said, "Ye Yi."
"My subordinate is here."
"you……"
"Master, are you worried that Seventeen might have made some mistakes?"
"Perhaps I am no match for her. I am afraid that she will be too impulsive and will end up hurting you and me."
"Seventeen is stubborn and does things cleanly and neatly. He will definitely not leave any traces."
"Take a few people with you and follow closely. Being clean and efficient also depends on the situation. She has achieved good results in assassinations of all sizes over the years, but she has also failed."
"Yes."
Seeing Ye Yi leave, Wu Dejing actually felt less nervous. Perhaps he didn't want anything unexpected to happen to a secret guard who was proficient in medicine, assassination, and mechanical skills.
Ye Shiqi soon arrived at the residence of Concubine Xiao in the harem of the Wu Dynasty. They had originally wanted to overthrow Concubine Xiao, but her son finally detoxified her. She regained favor and also caused quite a stir in the court.
Over the years, Ye Shiqi has become the sharpest knife in Wu Dejing's hand. He has only failed in assassination attempts a few times, and that was only to keep the plot reasonable.
However, Concubine Xiao did die at the hands of the original owner. This mission must be successful tonight because she needs to go to Xinchao to determine the real mission target.
"Pay attention, everyone. The candlelight is too bright. What if the queen wakes up?"
"I know I was wrong. Thank you for reminding me, auntie."
"Your Majesty, you cannot tolerate any grain of sand in your eyes. Please be more efficient in your work."
After the candlelight dimmed a little, the eunuch and the maid left. In less than a moment, the palace servants in front of the door began to change shifts.
A figure suddenly appeared on the beam, a knife flashed, and a black shadow came down from the beam with two heavy objects and gently piled them on the side of the wall.
Tick tock!
Unknown liquid was dripping on the floor. The figure walked behind the screen, extinguished the incense in the stove, and opened the curtains. In less than a moment, a drop of red liquid suddenly appeared on the pink lily in front of the bed.
After leaving Concubine Xiao's bedroom, the figure walked towards the prince's bedroom, but was stopped halfway by ten masked martial arts masters.
"You are such a bold thief! The palace is such an important place, how can we allow you to do such a thing?"
The man didn't answer, but swung the whip in his hand, and the other party caught the whip halfway. The next second, his body was extremely itchy. He covered his stomach and wailed in pain: "The weapon is poisonous, you are despicable."
The dart attacked, and the figure dodged nimbly, stepped on the dart with one foot and came forward lightly, the scabbard made a sound, and then the person was gently thrown onto the roof and hung upside down on the beam.
The same went for the others. They were killed by the sword in less than half a move and became dead souls.
Soon, a burst of ghostly howling could be heard from the palace: "Ah, it's gone, all gone!"
"The prince has fainted, imperial physician, please call the imperial physician!"
"Someone, catch the assassin!"
The harem was in chaos, and the people were in panic...
On the second day, the Wu Dynasty's civil and military officials were silent. The man on the dragon throne was so angry that he cursed: "I thought that my Wu Dynasty had been prosperous in recent years, but I didn't expect the thieves to be so rampant that they actually sneaked into the palace to assassinate Concubine Xiao and abused the crown prince. This matter must be investigated thoroughly for me."
"Your Majesty, calm down."
"Today, the Imperial Concubine and the Crown Prince are in trouble. Tomorrow it will be me. I am waiting."
"Your Majesty, this thief is truly despicable. Right now, we need to treat the Crown Prince's injuries... The Crown Prince must be safely out of danger."
The dungeon of Prince Jing’s mansion…
"Do you know you were wrong?"
"I know I was wrong. I was too eager to achieve success and disrupted the master's plan."
Snapped--
The board fell on Ye Shiqi's back without causing any pain. She was stunned for a moment, and after making eye contact with Ye Qi, she understood what was going on. Then she groaned, as if the board had hit her hard.
"Ye Qi, keep fighting!"
