Minglong

Chapter 94 Never die in peace
The two men stood side by side on the roof, and after only a few words, the entire Jinlou army came charging over.

Linghu Qingmo rushed to the front, his face pale, and quickly took care of Xie Jinhuan:

"Why are you outside? Are you okay?"

Xie Jinhuan had just gone to assassinate Han Jingchuan, but it was obviously difficult to say this openly:
"I was just wandering in the corridor when I heard some noise outside, so I came out to check it out. Unexpectedly, I saw someone sneaking up to my window and then a fight broke out. It looked like two groups of people, both wanting to kill me."

"These scum!"

Linghu Qingmo was so furious that he wanted to pick up his sword and whip the corpse:

"If I had known, I would have stayed by your side. Your injuries haven't healed yet, and if you noticed any movement, you should have called for help. Why did another one rush over?"

"Alas, I didn't know it was a killer. I just ran into him and couldn't help it..."

Linghu Qingmo was really afraid that Xie Jinhuan would be harmed by the evil spirit, and he had already made up his mind that from now on, he would sleep in Xie Jinhuan's room!
Zhang Huaiyu stood in the crowd and wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, he heard angry curses coming from the Jinlou behind him:

"This damned Red Scale Guard is completely lawless. Lai Fu! Go to the Imperial City Division and mobilize eight hundred Imperial Guards to surround the Wangjing Thousand Households Unit. King Ji... report your father's name!"

"Prince, calm down. This matter has not yet been investigated..."

"What's the point of investigating this? Han Jingchuan, a captain, is wearing night clothes and carrying a knife and sneaking into the Golden Tower. If he's not here to assassinate someone, how could he be here to pay New Year's greetings?"

"Uh……"

"I knew that a tall tree attracts the wind! This prince has always been hiding his incompetence and sullying himself, but I didn't expect that he would still be targeted..."

"what?"

……

The Golden Building was quite quiet, probably because the Prince of Dan was intimidated by his rage!
Xie Jinhuan knew very well who he was going to kill, and he risked his life to kill quickly because he was afraid that if he was slow, his identity as the Chilin Guard would be discovered, and he would not be able to use his knife again.

But at this moment, Xie Jinhuan naturally couldn't be too straightforward. He frowned and walked towards the Jinlou:
"Red Scale Guards? How is that possible?! That guy just now was clearly a demon bandit from the Nether God Cult, and the rest of them rushed out of my room..."

Wei Lu and the others rushed out of the Golden Building and saw many ghostly figures and several men in night clothes holding swords. They all said in unison:
"Yes, how could the Red Scale Guards be colluding with the Dark God Cult?"

"Don't worry, Master Xie. We saw the demon bandits surround and kill you with our own eyes, and we can testify for you, Brother Xie."

"Yes, we also took action! The Red Scale Guards did not wear official robes, but came in night clothes with masks on, and they also went in and out with the demon bandits. Even if it was an accidental killing, they were seeking death."

"This can't be an accidental killing. Could it be that the Red Scale Guards assassinated us and we should just sit back and let them be killed?"

……

After a few words, everyone returned to the hall.

All the guests in the building hid around the hall, and the singers and musicians were so scared that their faces turned pale.

There was a big hole in the wall of the Golden Building. Han Jingchuan, who was wearing a nightgown, crashed into several tables and chairs and fell to the ground. His chest was almost shattered into a pulp, his spine pierced his skin and flesh, and blood dyed his body three feet red.

Because of his strong foundation, Han Jingchuan had not yet completely died, but the veil had been pulled down, and blood was gushing out of his mouth and nose, and his eyes were gradually becoming unfocused.

Zhao De had just been jumping around with the plaque "Upright Gentleman" and was nearly killed by Han Jingchuan who flew in. Now he was furious and asked:

"Han Jingchuan, tell me the truth, who sent you to kill this prince?!"

Han Jingchuan was obviously unable to respond anymore.

Yang Dabiao and others formed a human wall to guard Zhao De. Although they were on guard against the surroundings as if they were facing a great enemy, they knew in their hearts that no matter who ordered the Chilin Guards, they would not come to kill His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.

After all, the Dan King's son is a typical "low value, high risk" person. Killing him would shock the court and the public, but his only effect would be to help the Dan King skip the patriarchal law of "establishing the eldest son as the legitimate heir" and replace him with a more reliable son.

I guess Dan Wang himself feels "happy and sad", what is the purpose of the mastermind behind the scenes?
However, no matter how small the possibility was, the guards still had to protect him. Several soldiers surrounded the Prince of Dan and did not allow anyone to approach.

Xie Jinhuan hurried to the hall. After making sure the child wasn't injured, he half-knelt beside Han Jingchuan and took a quick look at the injury—a blow to the heart had torn the thoracic spine. This injury was beyond the reach of even the gods. He wouldn't survive more than a minute...

Xie Jinhuan was relieved to find that he was doomed. However, since there were so many people around, he couldn't say anything harsh. He just looked at Han Jingchuan and asked:
"Captain Han, my name is Xie Jinhuan. Why were you hiding in my room just now?
“If I accidentally injured you while ambushing the demon bandits, please let me know.

"I, Xie Jinhuan, have the courage to take responsibility for my actions and will never evade the court's investigation..."

"Ho..."

When Han Jingchuan heard these words, his dull eyes suddenly became brighter. He stared at the man in white who was very close to him and tried to say something, but his chest was so shattered that even breathing was a luxury.

Thinking about how he failed to ambush and even blocked a wave of assassinations for Xie Jinhuan, and then was killed by Xie Jinhuan, Han Jingchuan's eyes were bloodshot!
But the last burst of energy only lasted for a moment, and his eyes became completely dull and his breath completely stagnated.

Xie Jinhuan stared into Han Jingchuan's eyes the entire time, speaking righteously, but his gaze was like a god stepping on an ant. It wasn't until Han Jingchuan's eyes completely lost their brilliance in boundless resentment that he retracted his gaze, stood up, and asked:

"Your Highness, what should we do now?"

Everyone present saw the emotion of 'wanting to eat him alive' in Han Jingchuan's eyes. The Dan King's Prince said coldly:

"Is it possible that I sneaked into your room dressed like this to ambush the demon bandits?
"If you dare to kill my friend today, will you dare to kill me tomorrow?
"It's really lawless... Lai Fu, prepare the car, I'm going to the palace to file a complaint!"

"Yes……"

Lai Fu hurried downstairs to make arrangements!
Xie Jinhuan knew that since Han Jingchuan came to deliver the body himself, there was no risk for him, so he didn't say much and stood up to check the other bodies with everyone else.

Lin Wanyi hadn't been able to run away just now, so she quietly came up to him, holding the Zhenglun Sword, and asked in a low voice:
"Xie Jinhuan, are you okay?"

"fine."

Xie Jinhuan wanted to take the sword, but the beautiful Lin hadn't let go yet!

Lin Wanyi had been pondering the meaning for a long time, and she couldn't hold it in any longer. She looked around and found that everyone was paying attention to the corpse. She moved closer with a suspicious look in her eyes:

"You give me the sword, meaning..."

Linghu Qingmo, who was looking at the corpse with a frown on his face, heard the sound and stood up straighter without making a sound, eavesdropping quietly.

Xie Jinhuan was just being mysterious and had no specific meaning. Now he thought:
"Just like last time, since you didn't bring any weapons, I asked you to use them for self-defense.

"I felt something was wrong today. You and I are so close, and I'm worried that some evil spirits might attack you. I'm not very reassured."

This explanation is quite reasonable.

Linghu Qingmo suddenly realized something and thought to himself, "No wonder... But why didn't you say it directly? Are you afraid that I'd get jealous?"

Lin Wanyi blushed, feeling so concerned about Xie Jinhuan. She bit her lower lip and didn't know what to say. She just returned the sword to Xie Jinhuan:
"Don't worry about me. I know some self-defense skills. Just be careful about your own safety..."

Seeing that no one was paying attention and the atmosphere was getting lively again, Xie Jinhuan raised his hand and gently brushed the hair of the girl with glasses by her ear. There was a look of "It feels like a long time since we last met" in his eyes, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.

?

Lin Wanyi suddenly became nervous, and quickly pulled Xie Jinhuan's hand down, glanced at the side, and whispered:
"What are you doing? Miss Linghu is here. It's getting late, I should go back, you..."

Xie Jinhuan understood what he meant and smiled:
"It's too messy here. You go back first. I'll go to the Lin Mansion to pay my respects after I finish my work."

Meet…

Don't go through the main gate. If I see you, I won't be able to wash myself clean even if I jump into the Luo River...

Lin Wanyi pursed her lips and didn't dare to say anything more. She bowed and said goodbye like a lady from a noble family, then turned and left.

Qinwen had been teasing Meiqiu, and only now left with a sense of unfulfilled desire.

"Guji~"

Coal Ball politely shook his head and said goodbye...
