Li Lin reacted quickly and reached out to press down Li Che's head, who was still in a daze.

Whoosh whoosh—

Several sharp arrows almost grazed his scalp.

Li Che was scared to death. If Li Lin hadn't held him down, these arrows would have hit his head!

"Damn it! How could there be an assassin?" Li Che cursed angrily.

This is the imperial capital, under the feet of the emperor!

Jinyiwei, imperial guards, night watchmen, which one is a good person to deal with? How dare someone assassinate the prince here?

"We can't stay in the car. The space is too small and we'll be a sitting duck for assassins. We have to get out!"

Li Lin opened the car curtain, dodged two arrows skillfully, and jumped out of the car with Li Che.

Seeing Li Lin's skilled appearance, Li Che was speechless.

How many assassination attempts must one have encountered to develop such skills?

Thinking of the fortress-like Prince Yan's Mansion, Li Che seemed to know why he was assassinated.

After traveling through time, he encountered three assassination attempts, two of which were with Prince Yan.

Although he was not assassinated together with the King of Yan, those refugees also passed through Yan when they came to Fengguo, and it is very likely that it was the work of the Yan family.

What does this mean?

This means that my fourth brother is the fucking congenitally assassinated holy body!

The two men jumped out of the carriage one after the other. The street was dark and silent.

The driver outside the carriage was shot by several arrows and lay motionless in a pool of blood on the ground.

Right in front of them, there were two men wrapped in black robes, holding light crossbows and firing arrows.

After seeing Li Che and the other two, the man in black was slightly stunned. Obviously, he didn't expect that the two would dare to come out on their own initiative.

At this moment, the crossbow arrows had not been loaded yet, so the two men had to throw away the light crossbows, draw short knives from their waists and rush towards Li Che and Li Lin.

Li Che was just about to step forward to fight when suddenly two silver lights flashed by his ears.

But Li Lin took out two flying knives from his waist, flew through the air, and accurately stabbed into the necks of the two assassins.

Li Che: ???

You don’t even want to act anymore?

Where the hell did this flying knife come from?

"What are you standing there for? Go!" Li Lin picked up a short blade and threw it to Li Che.

Li Che just took the short blade and glanced at the street, feeling a chill down his spine.

Under the moonlight, dozens of pairs of sinister eyes flashed on both sides of the street.

The entire street was filled with assassins dressed in black.

"You and I have violated the laws of heaven!" Li Che cursed angrily and dodged a sharp sword.

He thrust the short blade into the attacker's neck with his backhand, and then kicked the other assassin's calf in half.

Just when he had a chance to catch his breath, the assassins around him rushed forward, the cold light of the sharp blades in their hands flashed like water, all the way to the end of the street!

"Damn it!" Li Che cursed angrily and rushed forward.

A pistol came stabbing at him, Li Che rushed in and quickly reached out to grab the gun handle.

Without waiting for the assassins on the opposite side to react, Li Che swung the pistol in his hand and instantly cut the throats of the three assassins.

Li Che threw away the short blade, held the gun in both hands, leaned behind Li Lin, and the two brothers stood back to back.

He was not used to using a short blade, so a gun was more convenient for him.

Although Li Lin's skills were not as good as Li Che's, perhaps because he was used to this kind of assassination scene, he handled it with ease.

The short blade snatched from his hand flew up and down, and the assassins who approached him kept falling in front of him.

Although the two were brave, there were too many enemies and they kept rushing towards them.

Li Che stabbed one man and took a breath: "What should I do? There are too many assassins!"

Li Lin replied: "Retreat to the corner!"

Li Che nodded fiercely and was about to take action.

Suddenly, an angry roar came from the end of the street: "Jinyiwei is here, who dares to assassinate the prince!"

Jinyiwei!

Li Che and Li Lin were immediately delighted.

They arrived so quickly, there is only one possibility, that is, Emperor Qing sent someone to protect (supervise) the two of them.

When the Jinyiwei arrived, the assassin's movements obviously slowed down.

There were fewer assassins around Li Che and the other man, and it was obvious that they had assigned more men to deal with the Jinyiwei.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Che and Li Lin suddenly turned around, knocked down several people, and ran towards the corner.

This place is narrow, so the two do not need to guard against enemies in all directions, they only need to guard one direction.

At the same time, there was a sound of fighting coming from the end of the street. It was obviously the Jinyiwei and the assassins fighting each other.

Li Che felt relieved. With the Jinyiwei keeping him in check, he felt much more relaxed.

He killed with more and more vigor, and more assassins fell under the pistol and became the dead souls under the gun.

Just when the two thought they had escaped, several screams suddenly came from the other end of the street.

Then, the assassins swarmed in again.

The Jinyiwei...seems like they were all killed.

Li Che was dumbfounded. If you guys weren't so useless, why did you call yourself the Imperial Guard?!

"Damn it! The Jinyiwei are unreliable. Lao Liu, give it a try!"

Li Lin slashed fiercely with his sword, cutting off half of the assassin's neck, which drooped down strangely.

Li Che also knew that it was a matter of life and death, so he stopped holding back and stabbed out with his pistol continuously.

For a moment, this unknown street was flooded with blood.

Suddenly, Li Che saw a flash of cold light on the second-story building opposite, and immediately retreated to Li Lin beside him: "There are crossbowmen!"

Whoosh whoosh—

Dozens of crossbow arrows poured out, instantly covering the location where Li Che and Li Lin were.

Even though Li Che pushed Li Lin, he couldn't let him escape.

The crossbow arrows arrived in an instant, and two or three arrows hit each of their chests!

"Fourth brother!" Li Che's eyes were bloodshot.

"Sixth brother!" Li Lin shouted at the top of his lungs.

Both of them tried their best to kill the surrounding assassins and ran towards each other.

Li Che held Li Lin and anxiously looked at the chest of his clothes: "Fourth brother, where did the shot hit? Did it hit a vital point?"

Li Lin shook his head and said hurriedly: "Don't worry about me, how are you?"

Li Che touched it and felt something hard under Li Lin's clothes. His expression suddenly became strange: "I am wearing a close-fitting mail armor. Only a strong bow and crossbow can penetrate."

Hearing this, Li Lin's expression also became strange: "My father knows that I am often assassinated, so he gave me a golden silk soft armor that is invulnerable to swords and spears."

The two looked at each other and felt a little awkward.

Li Che: Damn! The Holy Body was assassinated!

Li Lin: As expected of the sixth one!

Assassins around: No, buddy?

Knowing that the other party was protected by soft armor, Li Che and Li Lin let go and killed the assassins until they screamed.

Or if they knew they were protected by armor, today's assassination would definitely not succeed.

It may also be that time wasted too long, and they were afraid that the people patrolling nearby would hear the noise, or that the people would report it to the authorities.

After fighting for a while, the assassins suddenly withdrew in tacit understanding.

Li Che and Li Lin did not chase after him. They just sat down on the ground, gasping for breath.

"Damn it! Who would assassinate us at this time?" Li Lin cursed.

Li Che shook his head. "The King of Qin and the King of Jin have just suffered losses, so they have motives. The political enemies of the King's faction in the court are also possible. And the Crown Prince..."

Suddenly, Li Che felt Li Lin's body beside him stiffen.

He quickly explained: "I just said it's possible, I didn't say it must be the prince."

"It's not that." Li Lin's voice trembled as he picked up something. "I found it on the body next to me."

Li Che lowered his head and his pupils suddenly trembled.

That's a...gilded lighter!
