After I disguised myself as a man, I became everyone's white moonlight

Even though Tang Yuhuai didn't like participating in the fight for the throne and didn't want to guess at the intrigues, he still noticed something unusual.

With such a loud noise, even if the civilians living in the houses did not dare to come out to see, the patrolling Jinwu Guards should have heard no sound at all.

This street is not some remote alley...

While running away quickly, Zhou Yichen tore off his brocade robe and bandaged his wounds to prevent the blood from flowing on the ground and attracting more assassins.

"This huge capital is like a dead city. The people behind the scenes want to kill the prince and the prince of the marquisate easily. The Jinwu Guards can't hear and don't exist. Where is the dignity of the Great Zhou? Where are the rules?"

Zhou Yichen was a prince of noble status, and he dared to discuss some things, but Tang Yuhuai, as a minister, could not discuss them. Even though he...often felt that the Great Zhou was like an old tree that was being eaten away by termites and was about to collapse.

Tang Yuhuai's duty as a subject cannot be criticized.

"Master Tang, which team is on duty tonight?"

"It's...General Wang." Tang Yuhuai was just too lazy to think about the problem, but it did mean he didn't understand.

It's not that there is no intrigue in the military, it's just slightly better than among the civil servants. Most military men have a more direct way of thinking: if you can beat me, I will submit to you.

But there were also many princes who wanted to put their own people in certain places. For example, General Wang Lang was the fourth person selected from the same group of generals as Tang Yuhuai in the military competition. He qualified with the Hundred Poison Hands and became famous in one fell swoop.

After that, the Jinwu Guard that entered with him, he personally did not like General Wang Lang's temperament, and had few interactions with him, so he did not know which force was behind this man?

"Your Highness, they are catching up soon." Tang Yuhuai frowned, his ears moved slightly and he heard the sound of arrows shooting.

"Watch out for the roof."

On the other side, Chu Xi was still there.

Chu Xi stabbed the assassin again, but instead of cutting his neck, he stabbed him hard in the thigh. "The Western Chu delegation does not have enough people to carry out such an assassination. Who are you?"

In fact, it is not entirely impossible to gather so many people. After all, it is impossible that Western Chu did not send spies to infiltrate the Great Zhou. If all the spies lurking in the capital were mobilized, such a large-scale assassination would not be impossible.

However, this requires a very important condition.

The cooperation of the Jinwu Guards is needed. With such a loud fighting noise, unless the patrolmen of the Jinwu Guards are all deaf, how can they ensure that the assassination will not alert others?

The assassin felt unbearable pain. The prince in front of him now looked no different from a Shura to him. It was too scary.

"It's a collaboration between Da Zhou and...us."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone rushed onto the roof. His goal was not to kill Chu Xi, but to kill the assassin who fell into Chu Xi's hands.

Chu Xi was surrounded by five people from front and back, and the most important thing was... she felt a familiar move, which quickly reminded her of the previous battle with the Nalan family in Yunzhou.

These five people were totally not on the same level as the previous ones. They formed a sword formation that was unpredictable and had made some progress in swordsmanship. Chu Xi only had a bow and arrow that he had temporarily snatched from the assassin.

Without a sword, you can only use what you have.

Chu Xi was too late to rescue the unlucky guy, as two more people flew up from behind and killed the assassin who was lying on the roof, unable to move, with one knife.

The assassin's eyes were wide open, as if he was unwilling to give in, and as if he was unwilling to die with his eyes open.

Chu Xi was facing five people alone. She was barely a second-rate swordsman. She didn't even have a decent weapon in her hand, so she could barely cope with it.

In Room No. 1 of Ningxiang Tower, there were two people of extraordinary identities sitting inside.

"This glass is for the Seventh Prince. I wish us a pleasant cooperation this time." Luo Youjin, the Fifth Prince of Western Chu, who had been furious in front of Chu Xi before, raised his glass and laughed.

"This time, both sides have sent out their best men. I don't believe that Chu Qibai can survive."

Luo Youjin's eyes were vicious, and his words were just as poisonous as his eyes. He was indeed a character that was not easy to mess with.

Too bad, my brain isn't very good.

The seventh prince Zhou Jinye, who was sitting opposite Luo Youjin, chuckled. He naturally would not say this in front of Chu Qibai.

He just raised his glass in cooperation, "Fifth Prince, happy cooperation."

Although he is a fool, if he can really get rid of his biggest threat with his help, it will be considered a complete merit for Luo Youjin.

"This time, we will join forces, and your royal brother and Prince Chu will definitely not be able to escape even if they have wings." Luo Youjin's idea was simple. He felt that by sending so many masters, even if Chu Xi was a killing god, he would definitely not be able to escape.

After he finished speaking, he proudly drank the wine in one gulp.

Zhou Jinye's thoughts were not as relaxed as Luo Youjin's. He did not forget Chu Qibai's performance in Yunzhou. He killed dozens of assassins sent by Nalan family by himself. Nalan family failed in two attempts to kill them.

Chu Qibai once rushed into the bandit's lair. If such a person could be eliminated, it would be a good thing...

It would not be so easy for someone with such great martial arts skills to die.

I'm afraid this time it will be fruitless again.

Zhou Jinye kindly reminded him, "Fifth Prince, don't take it lightly. Chu Qibai comes from a family of military commanders. His grandfather was the old marquis of the Loyal and Brave Marquisate, and he once fought against your Western Chu."

When Luo Youjin heard about the old Marquis Zhongyong, he paused in his drinking, but he was used to being flattered by his subordinates. Besides, there were only three princes in the royal family of Western Chu who could compete with him, and his mother was the most favored one.

Therefore, he had long been flattered by his subordinates and almost forgot his own worth.

"He's just a kid from a noble family who relies on his ancestors. What's there to be afraid of?"

Zhou Jinye, "......"

He wanted to borrow Luo Youjin's knife, which was why he agreed to the other party's request. Unfortunately, he didn't choose this teammate well and seemed to be too stupid.

It would be fine if he was just stupid, but Zhou Jinye saw that Luo Youjin drank a few glasses of wine, and then he became so dazed that he pulled the two women who were drinking with him... and they were being affectionate with each other.

Zhou Jinye really didn't want to stay any longer because of this scene. He stood up and said in a cold tone, "Fifth Prince, I have something else to do in my mansion, so I'll excuse myself first."

Luo Youjin waved his hand, indicating that he could leave. He was too lazy to even say a polite word, which showed how arrogant the Fifth Prince of Western Chu was.

He is standing on someone else's land, yet he dares to be so arrogant. This guy is so stupid that he needs to learn a lesson.

*

Thick darkness enveloped the entire capital city. In what seemed like a prosperous time, some people slept peacefully while others had to face a carefully planned murder.

Chu Xi was surrounded by a small sword formation. At the beginning, he was indeed a little helpless and could only counter the attacks.

After all, she didn't know much about the formation, especially this kind of small sword formation consisting of several people.

Every time they attacked, several swords were used together. Chu Xi dodged one and then that. Several swords attacked at the same time, and Chu Xi saw his own face in the reflective sword.
