As the saying goes, a son of a rich man cannot sit down in court, and there is also a saying that a gentleman cannot stand under a dangerous wall, and...well...that's the truth anyway.
Although Guo Kai was neither a rich man nor a gentleman, he certainly did not want to put himself in danger. After calming down for a moment, he learned from the expert mercenary guarding him, "This killer's strength is extraordinary, but it is enough for us."
After Ying's confident speech, he decisively chose to escape from here under their protection.
These guards were all paid to do things, and they were doing their best. A few of them fled to Guo Kai's Prime Minister's Mansion in light clothing.
The reason why he chose to go home was because Guo Kai felt that facing such a charlatan killer would make him feel more at ease with a bodyguard who was also a charlatan. And the army... even the elite was not enough. There were a large number of people recruited by Guo Kai in the prime minister's palace.
Master, he doesn’t take everything with him when he goes out.
Of course, he did not give up on the royal palace's imperial army or the capital's garrison, and sent people to all of them for help.
While escaping, he was also wondering, which family was trying to deal with Li Mu, using him as a victim, or was it simply targeting him?
The reason for the former conjecture is that this was part of his original plan.
He knew Li Mu very well, and this person was definitely calm enough. Even if he was forced repeatedly, he would not be able to kill him in Handan City. This would only completely anger Zhao Wangqian, so... in order to kill Li Mu, his plan was to,
The first step is to give the outside world a reason why Li Mu might attack him, which is what the court did today. The second step is to find someone to pretend to assassinate him, and then find a way to divert the blame to Li Mu, so as to make Zhao
Wang was angry and determined to punish Li Mu severely.
It's a pity that he was planning to implement the second step himself, but he was preempted by others... Fortunately, as long as he was fine, the plan went smoothly, and even became more realistic.
When the masked killer saw Guo Kai escaping, he immediately got rid of the group of soldiers and chased after him. Chaos immediately began to spread to the entire street.
………………
On the other side, at the medical stall in the east of the city, Gu Xun, who had just finished talking to Yan Lingji, noticed a familiar fluctuation of zhenqi. Then, a vivid blue bird made of zhenqi floated down.
In front of him, it slowly disappeared, leaving only a small note.
Gu Xun picked up the note and saw that it was a message from the Moon God, informing him to find the Six-Fingered Black Man as soon as possible and to block all his subsequent actions.
"This really means c... come as soon as you come... it's time to move away." Gu Xun burned the note casually, stood up, shook his clothes, and greeted Yan Lingji.
The other party's originally bored expression disappeared, he jumped up and asked slightly excitedly, "Where are you going?"
"Looking for someone to see if there are any other good shows that we don't know about."
"I can finally move around." Yan Lingji stretched out her waist, and her close-fitting dark red dress followed her skin, rising... and then falling.
"Oh, let's go."
………………
At the Mo family's stronghold, Jing Ke hurried back from outside and hurried straight to the room of the Six-fingered Black Man.
"Giant!"
"What's wrong?" Six-fingered Black Man saw his hurried expression and asked in confusion.
"I received an urgent message from my disciples. Someone assassinated Guo Kai in the street!"
The six-fingered black man's heart trembled, and he assassinated... As a result, Li Mu might not be able to explain clearly to King Zhao!
"Do you know who did it?"
"The identity is unclear, but the assassin seems to be practicing martial arts. A disciple witnessed him receiving the soldier's sword and halberd head-on without any damage."
"Armored Sect..." The six-fingered black man slowly spit out these three words. Experts who practice external skills were naturally the first to suspect the Armored Sect, "It seems that Sima Shang fell into the trap."
Jing Ke smiled bitterly and nodded, having guessed this, "Isn't this Sima Shang the right-hand man of General Li Mu? How can a master of military skills fall into other people's schemes so easily?"
"Now is not the time to talk about this. The most important thing right now is to capture the assassin so that General Li Mu can have something to say... let alone let him fall into the hands of Guo Kaiyi or others who are hostile to General Li Mu. Jing Ke, you
And Wuyang...forget it, I'll go there myself." The Six-fingered Black Man thought for a while, and decided to do it himself just to be on the safe side.
Unfortunately, Jing Ke said one more thing at this time, "Juzi, there is one more thing. Gongzi Jia seems to have made some changes and secretly went to the palace."
Zhao Wangqian ascended the throne. For Gongzi Jia, the palace was no longer a place where he could come and go at will. Not only was it inconvenient to enter, but he himself had no interest in running inside. Apart from adding danger to himself, there was no way
It has no effect, but at this time, he quietly enters the palace uncharacteristically...
"..." Jing Ke didn't know why. It was the six-fingered black man's strict mission to keep an eye on Gongzi Jia. However, he didn't know more about the inside story and could only report it, but the six-fingered black man was still guessing.
Sure enough, they would not let this opportunity pass...
"Jing Ke, you go to Wuyang immediately and capture the assassin. I have other things to deal with."
"Yes, Juzi." When Jing Ke heard this, he was free and easy by nature and left without asking any questions.
The six-fingered black man picked up the black-handled white scabbard, the square and simple token of the Mohist giants in the past - the Black Eyebrow Sword, and left in a hurry.
………………
"It feels like the city has become a lot more lively all of a sudden." Yan Lingji followed Gu Xun, walking leisurely through the eaves of high-rise buildings in Handan City, heading towards the direction of King Zhao City.
Gu Xun casually glanced at the chaos in the distance from the corner of his eye and replied, "If there is no chaos, how could the Moon God do anything?"
As for the so-called liveliness, it was actually caused by Guo Kai. The gangs in the east of the city, the garrison camp outside the city, and even the imperial army in the palace all moved because of Guo Kai's attack, which naturally caused the city to panic for a while.
Some people feel like they are on their backs.
The reason why the two of them went to the palace was because the Six-Fingered Black Man was speeding towards the palace at this time.
Gu Xun took Yan Lingji to the Mo family's stronghold as early as possible, and happened to quietly follow him who had just left.
However, Gu Xun did not directly stop the other party according to Luna's request. Instead, he allowed him to go where he wanted to go. After Gu Xun took over the business, he would naturally help Luna get what she wanted, but the process was specific.
How, it depends on what he wants to do.
It is Gu Xun’s freedom to cooperate or not to cooperate with his employer.
"Why did the Six-fingered Black Man run to King Zhao City?" Yan Lingji was carried by Gu Xun as a pendant because she could not keep up with the speed of the Six-Fingered Black Man. At this time, she raised her head slightly and asked Gu Xun. "Involving Canglong Qisu, it is normal for things to happen at Zhaowang Palace. The Six-fingered Black Man should have discovered the Moon God's little move and planned to stop it."
"The information is really well-informed. No wonder that woman paid such a high price to ask you to help ensure that she is worry-free."
"Haha, people who know the inside story are naturally very concerned and will not miss any risks. Six-Fingered Black Man... let's see if there are any extra gains."
