As soon as Ban Zou finished speaking, the sound of fighting could be heard in the yard.
Feng Yuheng walked to the window in confusion, stretched out her hand to push the window open, then leaned on the window sill with her chin in her hands and looked out.
In the middle of the night, there seemed to be a lot of people coming. She counted a circle, and there were eight in total. They were all dressed in black and holding swords in their hands. The black cloth covering their faces only revealed a pair of eyes, as sharp as an eagle.
Ban Zou stood beside her and did not go out to join the battle group. There were already many people outside, including him. His duty was to protect Feng Yuheng personally. Even though there were so many secret guards in the mansion now, he was still there.
He was still the only one who could enter Feng Yuheng's boudoir.
Those eight people were extremely skilled in martial arts and almost fought to a draw with the secret guards in the courtyard. Feng Yuheng watched with great interest and analyzed from time to time: "Actually, if our people had killed each other, we wouldn't have beaten them to a draw.
The other side is fighting with all their might, but our side is bent on catching those alive, and that’s why we’ve fought so far.”
Ban Zao crossed his arms and looked at the girl in front of him, rolled his eyes and said, "Are you watching a show? Do you know how dangerous it is?"
Feng Yuheng nodded, "I know, but they can't hurt me."
Ban left with his nose crooked and out of breath: "Why can't it hurt you?"
"Because of you!" She answered matter-of-factly.
Ban Zou was stunned for a moment, and swallowed back his habitual quarrels. Feng Yuheng's trust in him made him feel a little ashamed. As a secret guard, he failed his master twice, once in
Fengtong County, once on the way to Prince Xiang's Mansion. If Feng Yuheng hadn't come forward to defend him, I'm afraid he would have committed suicide in front of Xuan Tianming. But even so, his master was still willing to believe him and willing to put his wealth
His life was entrusted to him to protect, how could he not be moved by this?
"You still have to be careful." Ban Zao's throat was a little tight and he didn't know what to say, so he simply pulled Feng Yu Heng back from the window, "Don't look at it, such a person can't even be captured alive."
use."
"Why?" Feng Yuheng didn't understand for a moment.
At this time, the outcome outside had been decided. Three of the eight assassins were dead and five were injured, and all were captured alive. But before the people on her side could bring the prisoners in front of them, the five people who were originally alive suddenly had tears flowing from their mouths.
Blood, eyes rolled, and they all died.
Feng Yuheng immediately understood what Ban Zai said, "You came here with medicine in your mouth. Are these dead soldiers?"
Ban Zao nodded, then walked to the yard with Feng Yuheng, and went to check it out in person. At the same time, he also told her the difference between the dead soldiers and the secret guards - "The main skills of the secret guards are to hide, and to fight.
Surprise is the key to unpreparedness. Death soldiers are more aggressive. Once they take action, they don't take it into consideration. All their moves are aimed at the opponent's lifeline, usually killing them with one blow. If they can dispatch death soldiers, even if they don't count,
If you go to the bottom of the cauldron, you will take the other person's life at all costs. So, these people are not here for your steel training, they want your life. - The poison is hidden in the teeth." Ban Zou said all of them.
All the mouths of the corpse were pried open, and finally a conclusion was drawn.
"It is a mixture of at least fifteen kinds of poisons, and there is no solution." This was the conclusion Feng Yuheng came to after checking it. After saying that, she asked Ban Zao: "Do dead soldiers use similar methods to commit suicide?"
Ban said: "Generally speaking, it is like this, because it is easy to force a confession out of being captured alive and tortured. Only by using this method can you die painlessly and keep the secret. Most of these dead soldiers have been trained since childhood.
Yes, this concept has been instilled in them since they were sensible, so for them, it is normal to do this."
Feng Yuheng frowned, remembering that in her previous life, she had heard that the so-called agents trained by a special department were also trained since childhood, and only orphans with no relatives or relatives were selected. For those people, there is no right or wrong in the world, only the instructions of the superior.
Instruction 1: Even if they are about to shoot themselves to death, they will never blink an eye.
Such people are no different from machines.
"Check the corpse and see if you can find any clues." She sat on the corridor chair a little tiredly, watching the people in the yard turning over the corpse one by one. Wangchuan and Huang Quan also came forward to investigate together.
, but in the end they all shook their heads helplessly.
Ban said: "It's useless. Such dead soldiers don't even have their own names. Since they are here, they have made complete preparations. How could they bring identity information with them."
Feng Yuheng nodded. This was the result she had already thought of. She sighed helplessly and ordered: "You should dispose of all these corpses." As soon as she finished speaking, she immediately changed her mind, "Wait a minute." She
After pondering for a while, he suddenly pulled up an evil smile on his lips and ordered Wangchuan and Huangquan: "Go and inform the people over at Feng Mansion that I was ambushed and assassinated by eight dead men."
Huang Quan didn't understand why he did this, but Wangchuan had already reacted: "This time we were assassinated by a dead soldier, the third prince was suspected, and Princess Kang Yi was even more suspicious. No matter who did this, we must let it go
You see, with the defense of the county lord's palace, even if dead soldiers are dispatched, this is the only outcome."
Huang Quan nodded and followed Wangchuan to Feng Mansion.
Feng Yuheng was sitting on the chair in the corridor, chatting with her attendants without saying a word. When the Feng family members were woken up from their sleep and rushed over to Tongshengxuan, the secret guards flashed and disappeared.
At night, even Ban Zou is no exception.
So, what everyone in the Feng family saw was a clear and beautiful little girl, sitting on the corridor chair, swinging her legs, looking at the sky as if she had nothing to do. The moonlight was very bright tonight, illuminating her thin face
His small body made him look a little lonely and desolate.
The smell of blood was everywhere in the yard. Bodies lay scattered on the ground, and the blood stained the whole yard. The Feng family even felt like they had nowhere to go.
The female family members had never seen so many dead people before, and their faces turned pale with fright. Looking at Feng Yuheng's appearance, they suddenly felt that this girl was a bit like a ghost messenger coming out of hell. No matter what kind of person she was,
Even if it is a tiger, it will never get any benefit from her.
Xiangrong was the first to run forward, stepping on the blood on the ground, and walked over the corpses to Feng Yuheng. He pulled her to look left and right, and said worriedly: "Second sister, are you okay?"
Anshi also followed and asked with a worried look: "Are you injured?"
Feng Yuheng's originally expressionless face suddenly showed a bright smile, which seemed a bit lively under the moonlight. She said: "I'm fine, fine. I'm just a little scared.
I'm scared." She said while pressing her heart, but the smile on her face was completely inconsistent with the scared state she described.
"Master!" Anshi couldn't bear it anymore, turned around and said loudly: "You have to make the decision for the second lady!"
Feng Yuheng nodded, looked at Feng Jinyuan and said, "Father, my daughter is very scared."
Feng Jinyuan looked at Feng Yuheng's face and thought to himself, how could you look scared? But no matter what, it was true that Tongshengxuan was attacked by enemies. As Feng Yuheng's father, he couldn't
No matter what. What's more, Feng Yuheng is now the key protection target of the Dashun Dynasty. The emperor has sent so many soldiers and horses to protect him, but some people still risk their lives to come. If he doesn't show an attitude towards this matter, it will be the emperor's.
There is no way to explain it there either.
So he coughed twice and said to Feng Yuheng: "Don't worry, my father will definitely do his best to track down the original culprit and give you an explanation."
When he said this, he had no confidence in his heart. If the Shen family used to deal with Feng Yuheng, they just hired assassins because they had money. But these are dead soldiers, and dead soldiers cannot be bought with money.
He must be trained from an early age, and he knew that the Shen family had no dead soldiers. So, besides the Shen family, who else wanted Feng Yuheng's life?
When Feng Jinyuan's mind moved, the first thing that came to his mind was the third prince Xuan Tianye. There must be dead men in that man's house, and it was possible to dispatch eight of them at once. But the third prince had previously sent him a letter asking him to find a way.
He stole the steel-making technique from Feng Yuheng. Now that the steel-making technique has not been found, he cannot directly kill him.
So……
He was suddenly startled, and almost subconsciously cast his eyes towards Kang Yi. His thoughts were churning in his heart, and countless thoughts came to his mind, each of which tried to prove to him the possibility of Kang Yi's action.
.
First of all, Kang Yi has this motive!
Feng Yuheng went against her and suppressed her again and again. Not only did she suppress her, but she also defrauded Qian Zhou of so much gold. Not only did she defraud her of so much gold, but she also beat her biological daughter to death;
Secondly, Kang Yi has this ability!
As the eldest princess of a country, she went to Dashun alone with her daughter. It was impossible for her to be accompanied by only a group of attendants. There must be secret guards accompanying her secretly. In addition, if Qian Zhou's dead soldiers followed, it would not be possible.
There is no such possibility.
The more Feng Jinyuan thought about it, the more it made sense, and he couldn't help but feel conflicted in his heart. If Kang Yi was really responsible, which side would he stand on?
He would hesitate every time he encountered the matter of his second daughter, and the most fundamental reason for his hesitation was whether Feng Yuheng's life or death would be more beneficial to him.
What he was thinking at this time was that if Feng Yuheng lived and made steel for Dashun, as a father, his status in the court would naturally rise. And if Feng Yuheng died, no one would oppose him anymore, and he could use all his strength to
Support Chen Yu, help Chen Yu ascend to the post, and walk in the court as a relative from now on, that is the real majesty.
Thinking of this, Feng Jinyuan felt that it would be better for this daughter to die.
So, he withdrew his gaze from Kang Yi and spoke again, saying to Feng Yuheng: "Since you said these are dead soldiers, you must also know that once the dead soldiers act, it is impossible to stay.
No clues will be left, not even a survivor. Therefore, it is very difficult to investigate this matter. As a father, I will try my best, but you should not have too much hope."
Feng Yuheng suddenly laughed, and her smile was brighter and more beautiful than before. The crisp laughter filled the silent night sky, making it look a bit weird.
She said: "It doesn't matter, father will investigate slowly, and A-Heng is not in a hurry. I just want to say that it is not easy to train a dead soldier. In order to assassinate A-Heng, eight of them were used at once, which can be regarded as a big investment. Mother
——" She suddenly turned her gaze to Kang Yi, "Guess, after eight dead soldiers died at once, that person is still reluctant to send more people to die?"
