Ren Yingying was naturally extremely concerned about her father's life and death. If she hadn't been afraid that her hasty arrival in Jiangnan would arouse the suspicion of Dongfang Bubai, the unconcerned leader, she would have rushed there as soon as she got the news.
Jiangnan is coming.
Even so, Ren Yingying was still lingering in the Jiangnan area and maintained close contact with Xiang Wentian. However, not long ago, she received news that Xiang Wentian had fallen into the hands of Jin Yiwei.
It can be said that Ren Yingying was stunned when she learned the news. She never thought that the powerful Xiang Wentian would fall into the hands of Jin Yiwei.
If it was the past, then it would be fine. Although she was surprised, she wasn't that worried. The most important thing was to find a way to save people.
But things are different now. Xiang Wentian has already found out the whereabouts of his father, but only Xiang Wentian knows his father's exact whereabouts.
If something happened to Xiang Wentian, then she would no longer be able to learn about her father's whereabouts from Xiang Wentian.
Whether it was out of concern for Xiang Wentian's safety or concern for her father's whereabouts, it can be said that Ren Yingying led people to Yangzhou City as soon as she received the news.
The power of the Sun Moon God Sect is definitely the top in the world, and even in this land south of the Yangtze River, it still has its own tentacles.
On the day she arrived in Yangzhou City, Ren Yingying contacted the spies of the Sun Moon Sect in Yangzhou City and sent Lu Zhuweng and others to find out about Xiang Wentian.
Ren Yingying and others chose this courtyard next to the Zhuyuan to stay temporarily.
It was precisely because they knew that Li Huan, the imperial envoy, was in the bamboo garden nearby that Ren Yingying and others chose a place like Tianxiang Garden.
The close distance allowed them to secretly monitor every move of Li Huan and his group. After all, if they wanted to rescue Xiang Wentian, the first thing they thought of was to start with Li Huan and his group who were imperial envoys.
At this time, looking at the old man, Zu Qianqiu, Green Bamboo Man, and Lan Fenghuang, Ren Yingying frowned and said, "Are you sure that Uncle Xiang is being detained in this bamboo garden?"
After looking at each other, Zu Qianqiu took a deep breath and said to Ren Yingying: "Miss, although I can't be 100% sure, I am at least 70-80% sure that the possibility of Xiang Zuo being detained in Zhuyuan is indeed
It’s the biggest.”
As he spoke, Zu Qianqiu bowed and said, "Let my subordinates sneak into the bamboo garden quietly to find out the news."
Ren Yingying pondered for a moment, nodded slightly and said, "In that case, I'd like to thank you for your time."
Ren Yingying is quite confident in Zu Qianqiu's abilities.
Zu Qianqiu is also an old man who has been involved in the world for many years. He is quite strong and there will definitely be no problem in sneaking into the Bamboo Garden.
Ren Yingying and others here had no idea that because Ren Yingying played the Pure Heart Universal Good Mantra in a moment of depression, it actually attracted Li Huan's attention and sent someone to investigate.
I can only blame Ren Yingying, a saint of the Sun and Moon God Sect, who has always been free and unrestrained. She subconsciously regarded Tianxiang Garden as her daily residence and ignored the sudden sudden change in such a sealed garden.
What does the sound of the piano mean to the guards living next door?
Ma Ming quickly arrived at the gate of Tianxiang Garden with a dozen or so elite guards.
There was obviously a seal attached to the gate of Tianxiang Garden, and the seal remained intact. It was obvious that no one had broken it from the outside.
However, Ma Ming didn't pay attention to this. The previous sound of the piano was definitely coming from Tianxiang Garden, which meant that there must be someone in Tianxiang Garden.
Since the other party is not walking through the main entrance, there is only one possibility, which is to climb over the wall. After all, in such a courtyard sealed by Jin Yiwei, if the seal on the gate is broken, it will definitely attract attention, even if someone wants to
If you are lurking in Tianxiang Garden, you will definitely choose to enter Tianxiang Garden quietly.
The first thing Ma Ming thought about was whether someone wanted to lurk in Tianxiang Garden and assassinate Li Huan.
After all, Jinyiwei has dealt with more than a dozen waves of assassinations in the past few days, with several assassinations happening almost every day.
It is not unusual for assassins to hide in Tianxiang Garden with evil intentions.
So standing in front of the gate of Tianxiang Garden, Ma Ming waved his hands to the group of royal guards behind him.
The next moment, the Jin Yiwei who were following Ma Ming were seen cocking the crossbows in their hands one by one, and then Ma Ming was seen climbing over the wall and landing silently in Tianxiang Garden.
And the dozen or so Jin Yiwei were all experts among the Jin Yiwei. It was not difficult for them to climb over the wall and enter the house. They also entered Tianxiang Garden without any movement.
Tianxiang Garden is not big, but it is not small either. It covers an area of more than ten acres, and a large number of pavilions and pavilions have been built. It is obviously not easy to find people in such a yard.
However, Ren Yingying and others obviously had no intention of hiding their identities. After all, as people in the world, and with their unusual identities, they naturally had a deep-seated resistance to hiding one's head and tail.
It was also in broad daylight, in such a sealed courtyard, that Ren Yingying played the piano so unscrupulously, while no one else even had anyone to dissuade her.
One is because of Ren Yingying's identity, and the other is because these people have no awareness of this at all.
So when Ma Ming and his party were searching for the whereabouts of Ren Yingying and her party in Tianxiang Garden, they quickly found the small garden where Ren Yingying and her friends were.
The garden is not big, but it is extremely exquisitely built. The pavilion in particular is quite impressive, and it is precisely because of this that Ren Yingying likes it.
When Ma Ming and others turned around a screen, they first saw several figures in the pavilion in the distance.
When Ma Ming saw Ren Yingying and others, Ren Yingying and others also immediately noticed Ma Ming and his party.
Both sides were stunned when they saw each other for the first time, but Ma Ming was obviously mentally prepared. The key reason why he was stunned for a moment was that he did not expect that the other party would stay in the pavilion without any cover.
.
He originally thought that even if someone was hiding in Tianxiang Garden, he must be hiding very secretly. Who would have thought that the other person could be seen at a glance by staying in the courtyard so openly.
As for Ren Yingying and others, they obviously did not expect that Jin Yiwei would suddenly appear.
They had stayed in this garden for a day and a night, and they knew something about the Jin Yiwei next door.
The Jin Yiwei people focused almost all their attention on the bamboo garden, guarding the safety of Li Huan, who was the imperial envoy.
There were even several waves of assassinations targeting Li Huan. Ren Yingying and others hid in the dark and watched. The people of Jinyiwei almost never left the bamboo garden, but only focused on protecting Li Huan's safety. This was why they stayed in Tianxiang Garden so unscrupulously.
The reasons why.
Now suddenly seeing a team of uniformed guards appear, how could this not surprise Ren Yingying and others.
Ma Ming drew out his sword almost instinctively and snorted coldly: "Who are you? Are they the thieves who intend to assassinate my Marquis?"
It's no wonder that Ma Ming would regard Ren Yingying and others as the assassins of Li Huan. In fact, the waves of assassinations in the past few days have made Ma Ming form a conditioned reflex.
Being said to be Ma Ming, it can be said that the first thought of any member of Jinyiwei who saw Ren Yingying and others would be the same.
Ren Yingying couldn't help but frown. Although they said they were thinking of rescuing Xiang Wentian, they would most likely face off against the Jin Yiwei, but at this moment, someone came to their door and was regarded as an assassin. Naturally, the proud Ren Yingying
Quite unexpected.
Before Ren Yingying could speak, the Green Bamboo Man stepped in front of Ren Yingying, holding a bamboo stick in his hand and staring warily at Ma Ming and his group who were targeting them with crossbow arrows.
An old voice came out of Green Bamboo Man's mouth: "Auntie, let's go first."
As soon as Green Bamboo Man opened his mouth, Ma Ming's expression changed slightly. He just assumed that the other party had acquiesced. Since he was an assassin who intended to kill Li Huan, Ma Ming naturally ordered without hesitation: "Shoot, give me the shot."
Shoot these thieves to death
!」
The dozen or so Jin Yiwei who had already been prepared to take action at any time pulled the trigger almost as a conditioned reflex, and the next moment they heard the sound of whizzing through the air.
More than a dozen crossbow arrows were fired directly at Luzhuweng and the others.
Seeing this situation, the faces of Green Bamboo Weng, Zu Qianqiu, the old man, and Lan Fenghuang all changed slightly, with anger on their faces.
Even though they all behaved honestly in front of Ren Yingying, who among them would not be the master of walking sideways in the arena?
To be honest, they really don't take the government to heart on weekdays. As for the Jin Yiwei, they don't take it to heart either.
At this moment, the Jin Yiwei dared to shoot them with crossbows, and these evil people with extreme temperament were immediately furious.
"How brave!"
He heard Zu Qianqiu yell angrily, and he jumped to avoid a few crossbow arrows. After a few ups and downs, he rushed to Ma Ming, reached out and grabbed Ma Ming fiercely.
Zu Qianqiu's claw is quite a bit of the essence of the Eagle Claw Skill. If it were caught on the body, it could seriously injure someone in an instant.
The bamboo stick in the Green Bamboo Man's hand bloomed in the sky, and bamboo shadows bloomed in the sky. A jingling sound was heard, and the incoming arrows fell to the ground instantly.
As for the other arrows, they were stopped by Lan Fenghuang and the old man. It can be said that none of the dozens of arrows caused any damage.
No matter which one of these people is a top-notch expert, a dozen arrows are really nothing to them.
Just as Zu Qianqiu's claw was about to fall on Ma Ming, Ma Ming shouted angrily and instantly slashed out the Xiuchun knife in his hand.
The sharp sword light mixed with a chilling aura struck directly at Zu Qianqiu.
Zu Qianqiu's complexion couldn't help but change. Although his claw was powerful, it still depended on who he was facing.
Ma Ming's strength is no worse than Zu Qianqiu. If he were an ordinary person, he would be killed by Zu Qianqiu in an instant. However, facing Ma Ming's sword, Zu Qianqiu could only choose to dodge.
Otherwise, if this knife was struck, his hand might be cut off.
Zu Qianqiu, who missed his claws, swayed to avoid Ma Ming's blow. When he landed, he looked at Ma Ming with a somewhat wary look.
At the same time, more than a dozen Jinyi guards fired their powerful crossbows again, but this time the target was directly targeted at Zu Qianqiu.
More than a dozen arrows targeted one person, and even Zu Qianqiu felt a bit threatened, especially since Ma Ming, a master who was not weaker than him, was staring at him, which made Zu Qianqiu's expression change drastically.
If Zu Qianqiu was alone, facing Ma Ming and more than a dozen Jinyi guards armed with powerful crossbows, he would probably be dead.
But Zu Qianqiu is not alone, and there are also several helpers such as Green Bamboo Man, Lan Fenghuang and the old man.
Just when Zu Qianqiu felt the crisis, the old man jumped up and appeared beside Zu Qianqiu. He held a long knife in his hand and said with a bit of ridicule: "Zu Qianqiu, can you do it? It doesn't matter if you lose your life."
, you can’t afford it if you miss the miss’s important event.”
As he said this, the old man swung his sword into the air and directly blocked a wave of arrows for Zu Qianqiu.
Zu Qianqiu had such a helper from the old man, so the crisis was instantly resolved. However, after hearing the old man's words, he couldn't help but snorted: "Old man, just watch me kill these Jin Yiwei."
The next moment, one of the Jin Yiwei's throats was locked by Zu Qianqiu's claws. A click was heard, and Zu Qianqiu tore the Jin Yiwei's throat directly, and blood spurted out.
Seeing this scene, Ma Ming couldn't help but his eyes turned red and he let out a long roar.
This long whistle spread in all directions, obviously Ma Ming's warning and call for help.
There is only a wall between the Bamboo Garden and the Tianxiang Garden. Even though they are now deeper into the garden, they are still only a hundred feet apart. The roar of the horse naturally alerted the royal guards in the Bamboo Garden immediately.
In the bamboo garden, Li Huan was looking through the pile of cases in his study. Li Huan needed to review these cases and then make a decision on how to deal with the people involved in the case.
good,
Li Huan had no intention of escorting these criminals to the capital for imprisonment, but was prepared to exercise the power granted to him by the emperor to behead first and report later, and directly deal with the captured criminals on the spot.
While Li Huan was reviewing the case, he suddenly heard a loud and familiar whistle.
Hearing the long whistle, Li Huan couldn't help but frown, put down the brush in his hand, stood up, and walked towards the outside.
Cao Yu, who was serving on the side, followed quietly. At the same time, the Jin Yiwei in the Bamboo Garden also reacted immediately. A group of Jin Yiwei led by a Jin Yiwei Qianhu Officer went straight to Tianxiang Garden.
And go.
After leaving the study, Li Huan put his hands behind his back and was about to head towards Tianxiang Garden when he saw Lin Pingzhi appearing with a team of people.
When he saw Li Huan, Lin Pingzhi came up to Li Huan and saluted him: "Ma Ming warned, there must be an assassin appearing. Lord Marquis, there is no need to worry, the brothers have already rushed over."
[It’s the end of the month. Guys, let’s see if there are any monthly passes and give me some.]
