MTL - The Words of the Number One-Chapter 12 ambush

Soon Ji Yu bid farewell to Xiang Shaoya, and took us and a group of servants to the land of Wu Zhao. In addition to gold and silver, Fan Jun also gave him three well-equipped carriages, which made the journey much more brisk.

Ji Yu often asks me to play chess recently, asking me to solve the chess game half of the time, and playing chess with me half the time. I have never played chess against others, and I don't know how good my chess skills are, but I feel that he is still holding back his strength when playing chess with me.

When I solve the chess game, he is mostly reading a book or letter. He reads the book very fast, flipping through each chapter dazzlingly. Not to mention those letters, they were put on the fire after a glance.

Zi Kou said that Ji Yu has an excellent memory, and she does a lot of work by herself. This is not bad, after all, he boiled my antidote himself.

At this moment, I was solving the chess game again in his carriage. His carriage was very spacious. He was sitting behind the desk looking at the letterhead, and I was sitting behind the small wooden table next to him, looking at the chess pieces on the table. The chess pieces are made of special shells, which have great friction on the table and are not easily affected by the bumps of the carriage.

When I was concentrating on thinking, there was a low laugh next to me. I turned my eyes and saw Ji Yu's smiling eyes.

"There is good news."

"what?"

"Mrs. Song Guozhen is pregnant."

Period pregnant.

I froze for a moment, then laughed, and said, "Thank you for telling me the news."

Qiqi is going to be a mother, and I am so happy for her.

She originally valued family affection, and after the death of the Qi Kingdom, I was the only family member by her side, and now I am not by her side, thinking she is extremely lonely, I don't know if she is hiding in the quilt and crying again.

Now the pain of losing loved ones for the past five years is finally coming to an end, and there will be a new blood-related relative.

very nice.

Ji Yu propped her chin and said, "It's been a long time since I've seen you sincerely happy. Why are you so nice to Jiang Qiqi?"

His eyes seemed to say, you are not a person who values ​​family affection.

"Because Qiqi is good to me."

Ji Yu was silent for a moment, and said with a smile: "There are three beauties in Kyushu, Mrs. Wei Guoxin, Princess Yuzhuang of Fan State, and the Seventh Princess of Qi State. They were originally all beauties with the same reputation, but Jiang Qiqi has the most famous reputation in recent years. But on the other hand, everyone who has seen her is fascinated by her, saying that she is not only beautiful, but also smart and dexterous, and her words are extraordinary. Even Su Cheng and Fan Wang asked me about her. Jiang Qiqi is beautiful It’s true, but her wit and dexterity are extraordinary, you taught her, right? How much of her kindness to you is sincerity and how much is she taking advantage of?”

I frowned.

His conversations with me always had an air of subtle provocation and confrontation that was uncomfortable.

"Shortly after my mother passed away, I was brought up by the queen. Since then, I have become acquainted with Qiqi, and she has been protecting me. My son, I can still tell who treats me sincerely and who uses me."

Ji Yu didn't continue to refute, but just said: "You really like her."

Who wouldn't like Qiqi, she is so beautiful, gentle and kind.

I thought so and said it. Ji Yu on the opposite side put down the letter in her hand and spoke leisurely.

"I like you even more."

His phoenix eyes were full of smiles, and his tone was relaxed but serious, as if he was talking about something that should be taken for granted.

"If Jiang Qiqi is said to be a pearl, then you are a precious sword, and you will see blood when you kill someone.

sword?

A sword does not become a sword by itself, it is polished by a craftsman and killed by a swordsman. As for whether Jian wants to kill people, no one has ever asked and no one cares.

But there is nothing to complain about. I knew early on that I was just a tool for him. I have nothing in particular that I want to do, nothing in particular that I hate. Although making a sword was involuntary, it didn't bother me too much.

I won't blame him for this, so he doesn't have to say what he likes.

He seemed to want to continue to say something, but suddenly his eyes narrowed, and he shouted to me: "Don't move!"

As soon as the words were spoken, an arrow broke through the window and flew straight towards me. The hair that brushed my sideburns pierced into the wall behind me. My forehead felt a sharp pain and then a hot stream gushed out. In the blink of an eye, Ji Yu had come to me, took my hand, hugged me and lay down on the ground. There was a loud commotion outside the carriage, and Nan Su's voice sounded.

"Young master, there are assassins!"

Accompanied by Nan Su's voice, several arrows broke through the wall again and flew randomly in the carriage. Ji Yu pulled over the chess table to block it, and listened attentively to the movement outside the car.

When he grabbed me, I subconsciously looked at his hand, with white and slender fingers. His hands were a little cold, and because of the well-defined knuckles, the grip was not as soft as the period.

It was like I was holding a grown man's hand for the first time.

I was between the chess table and him, the tremor of his fast beating heart could be clearly discerned, he was still smiling even though his body was tense, and he said to me without looking at me: "I told you not to move, you are really good!" motionless."

There was a neighing sound from the horse outside the door, and the whole car suddenly bumped and rushed forward quickly. The servants and maids exclaimed for a while, and then their voices became smaller with the distance. It seemed that someone had controlled our carriage. Ji Yu hugged me and moved to the door, stuffed a pill into my mouth and said softly: "I'll jump out of the car after a while, jump to the back of the car and roll a few times. Understand?"

"I try my best."

He seemed to think of my clumsiness, frowned slightly but didn't say anything. At this time, a sword opened the curtain of the car and poked in. Ji Yu quickly sprinkled a handful of powder along the gap, and heard a wailing outside the car. At this moment he jumped out of the car, and I jumped out of the car after him.

His powder made the assassins outside the car temporarily incapacitated, so no one stopped me. Even so, I crashed into the ground and rolled around a few times in extreme embarrassment, before losing consciousness.

I felt that I was just in a coma for a short period of time. When I woke up again, it was dawn in the east, and I was woken up by cold water. After I struggled to open my eyes, I saw that my hands and feet were tightly tied to the pillars, and I was in a broken house somewhere, surrounded by a group of unfamiliar men in black clothes.

They were not masked, they looked like northerners, and they were tall. The man standing in the middle should be the leader, he was born heroic and strong, with a low voice.

"It can be regarded as awake."

This group of assassins?

We were attacked at the junction of Wu State and Zhao State, but his accent and appearance did not look like a person from Wu and Zhao. Did Wu and Zhao hire murderers, or were other countries involved?

A whip hit me, I flinched, and saw red blood oozing from my waist.

"At this time, you are still distracted. It seems that you don't know how powerful it is." Holding the whip, the man wiped the blood from the whip and said coldly, "If you want to survive, answer my questions obediently."

I looked at him and nodded.

"Where is Ji Yu going, Wu or Zhao?"

What a coincidence, I didn't know the first question.

I only know that he is trying to break the Wu-Zhao alliance. As for whether he intends to start with Wu or Zhao, he hasn't told me yet. These days we have been walking along the border between Wu and Zhao, sometimes in Wu and sometimes in Zhao.

From this point of view, he may have known there was going to be an attack.

"I don't know about that."

I'm telling the truth.

The man's eyes froze, and he whipped up again, which just overlapped the last wound, causing a heart-rending pain. I gritted my teeth and looked up at him.

"I'm telling the truth."

"Ji Yu wants to help Yu Guo?"

"That's natural."

"Fan Jun has agreed to send troops?"

"How could Ji Yu return without success?"

The man narrowed his eyes, and approached me with a whip: "You **** grandma, don't talk to me in this tone."

I looked at him for a while, then chuckled, "Let me guess. You caught Ji Yu, but let him escape, didn't you?"

The man was hit by my words, the veins on his forehead twitched, and he was furious: "Shut up for me!"

Three whips came one after another, my skin was torn apart, I finally bowed my head and spat out a mouthful of blood. The man's subordinates hurriedly stopped him and said to him: "Boss, boss, you see this girl provokes you to want to die, don't fall for her tricks!"

The man stared at me fiercely, wishing he could stare me to death. He breathed calmly, and said with a smile: "You are so smart and loyal, you must know a lot of things, right? Don't worry, I won't let you die, I will ask you slowly."

Won't let me die?

My heart was slightly relieved, and I even wanted to laugh a little.

That's good.

After a whole morning of torture, the man was finally tired. He told his subordinates to keep an eye on me, and then he led a group of people out, angrily as if he wanted to continue looking for Ji Yu.

After they went out, the sun gradually went to the west, and the sunlight shone on me through the window. My body, which was originally cold due to blood loss, also felt a little warmth. I lowered my head to look at the clothes on my body. The sky blue silk was made of fine silk, but now it was so blood-stained that I couldn't see its original color, and it was also broken into pieces.

"It's a pity." I murmured.

The assassin who was watching me said impatiently, "What are you talking about?"

The other person stopped him and persuaded him: "If you can deal with her, don't talk, or be fooled by her all morning like the boss."

It seems that they were deeply impressed by the long and inefficient interrogation in the morning. Their boss didn't even have the time to interrogate me, let alone Ji Yu.

I looked at the five people guarding the room one by one, shook my head and said with a smile: "It's a pity..."

"What a pity?"

"If your boss took you to chase Ji Yu, you wouldn't die here."

"You! What crazy words are you talking about?" The little assassin brother was so angry that he raised his whip and swung it towards me. The whip raised a full arc in the air, and when it was about to hit me, it suddenly loosened. I saw him clutching his heart, his seven orifices bleeding and falling down, his eyes looking at me in disbelief.

The faces of the other people in the dilapidated house were terrified, they drew their swords out of their sheaths and looked around nervously, but before they could figure it out, they lost their strength and fell down. They were all bleeding from the seven orifices and couldn't make a sound, looking at me in panic .

The scent of cypress wood became more and more intense, the door of the dilapidated house was slowly pushed open, a piece of gray-purple clothes brushed across the threshold and walked into the house, a pile of corpses fell in disorder behind the visitor.

"You are really poisonous." I looked at Ji Yu and smiled.

His clothes were neat and his hair was not messed up, and he still looked elegant. He walked into the room leisurely and helped me untie the ropes on my hands and feet: "You don't lose your mouth."

I stood up slowly while supporting the pillar, and asked, "Where are the others?"

"Scattered."

He stuffed a pill into my mouth, took off his coat and put it on me. As soon as my blood got on his body, his silver-gray coat permeated and smudged, as if a patch was gradually blooming on his clothes. red flowers.

Ji Yu looked at the blood oozing from his clothes, frowned and said, "Once others get whipped, they will scream so that the roof of the house will be knocked off, but you have been whipped many times without saying a word. You just want to pretend that you know what's going on. They don't dare to kill you, and they don't have to be so brave."

After a pause, he asked, "Can you still walk?"

I nodded and looked up at him: "It's okay."

He looked at me for a while, smiled and shook his head and walked out. The five people in the room were breathless, and the six people outside were also dead. Ji Yu took a few bags of silver from them calmly, half joking and half serious, said: "Let's get out of here first, if you can't keep up with me, I will get rid of you.
