Chapter 42

A silver-white arrow rushed into the air, and disappeared in a blink of an eye in the snowstorm.

Lan Ling saw that there were seven people coming, including the lame man who chased her before, the white-faced scholar Bai Qi and the black-faced man Luo Qiang. The other four, Lan Ling did not know, but at first glance they were people from the rivers and lakes, and their tricks were ruthless and deadly!

Ling Chen and the others were also first-class masters, Tian Ming showed his ruthlessness, his sword was like a rainbow, he couldn't tell whether it was a snowflake or a sword flower.

However, the assassin immediately recognized King An and aimed his moves at Ling Chen.

"Who are you, who sent you to assassinate this king?" Ling Chen asked in a deep voice.

Gu Fan took the opportunity to shoot another arrow into the air. A plume of grey smoke rose into the air.

"He's lame Zhang!" Lan Ling pointed at the lame.

The three assassins surrounded Ling Chen.

"People from the rivers and lakes, dare to assassinate this king!"

Ling Chen responded calmly and calmly, he couldn't hurt them, and they couldn't hurt him either.

Time is infinitely slow and infinitely fast, as if the world is only the sound of fighting and the wind, and the snow is falling among them.

Lan Ling saw that Ling Chen was using a soft black sword, she quietly took off the Mid-Autumn Water Sword from her waist.

She is not proficient in swordsmanship, but the Qiushui sword seems to have eyes in her hands.

Ling Chen had been protecting Lan Ling, and was wrapped around the soft sword by the cripple Zhang's crutch. Seeing that the black-faced man's long sword stabbed towards him, his Canglong Sword also seemed to have eyes, and was stabbed at the enemy's throat.

Ling Chen was secretly surprised, that white-faced scholar had already been slashed in the arm by the Canglong Sword!

Lan Ling was overjoyed, at this time, Ling Chen was in the same mind with her. Because the Canglong Sword and the Qiushui Sword can only increase their power greatly when they have a heart-to-heart connection.

Two more assassins came around, Ling Chen stabbed a sword in the chest.

"Master, come into the city!" Tian Ming jumped over and stood back to back with Ling Chen.

Between life and death, the crimson blood did not blind their eyes, and in the dark and harsh environment, they still fought side by side in tacit understanding!

Ling Chen was fighting and retreating, his sword qi was cold, and his aura was fierce!

Tian Ming and others intercepted the assassin, Ling Chen took Lan Ling into the carriage and ran all the way into the city.

Lan Ling bandaged Ling Chen's wound.

The assassins behind had already caught up, Lan Ling turned around and turned the phantom, hitting a few silver needles.

The Assassin dodged and charged forward even more fiercely.

There was not a single pedestrian on the street. On the snowy night of the first day of the new year, An Wang was besieged by assassins on the quiet street of Yuncheng.

The black-faced assassin kicked Lan Ling, Lan Ling stumbled to the ground, and the man kicked a few more times. Lan Ling saw that Ling Chen had been stepped on the ground by the lame man, and the black-faced assassin also quickly walked over.

Lan Ling got up with both hands on the ground, pulled out the silver hairpin on his head and rushed towards the lame man's neck artery and stabbed it down, spinning, pulling, and blood suddenly splashed silently. Lan Ling knows medicine and can very accurately find what is on a person's body. Acupuncture points and various organs.

The lame Zhang has been in the rivers and lakes for decades. Because he underestimated the enemy, he died in the hands of an unknown little woman.

Ling Chen jumped up and ran towards the black-faced assassin. He was already covered in blood.

The black-faced assassin alone is not Ling Chen's opponent, he made a false move, ready to escape, Ling Chen chased after him.

Lan Ling pulled him, "Stop chasing, shouldn't we hide first at this time?"

"No, he hit you just now and must die!" Ling Chen gritted his teeth and quickly chased after him.

"Crack" a crisp sound suddenly sounded, and I don't know whose weapon made the sound.

The black-faced assassin stumbled to the ground, Ling Chen stepped forward with a ruthless strike, cut off his head, and kicked him twice.

He staggered back and Lan Ling supported him

Ling Chen was bleeding everywhere, and the weight on her body was getting heavier and heavier.

Lan Ling was terrified.

She only had a bottle of Heart Protecting Pill on her body, she took it out and put two pills in her mouth.

Footsteps came from behind, Tian Ming and the others had already arrived, and they were followed by dozens of guards.

"Where's Lei Ze?" Ling Chen asked Tian Ming.

"Sent a signal to him, didn't come, I suspect something happened."

"It's better for An Wang to avoid it first." A person jumped off the roof.

"Brother!"

"Senior Huo!" Ling Chen nodded.

"As far as I know, the palace is already under the control of Prince Ning. It is not safe for Prince An to enter the palace or return to Prince An's mansion at this time." Huo Jingyun whispered to Ling Chen.

"If you don't dislike it, go to Ziyi Pavilion to rest first."

Lan Ling looked at Ling Chen and said, "Go to Ziyi Pavilion to heal the injury." Ling Chen nodded, and a dark guard came to help him.

Huo Jingyun led them in through the back door and into a very secret room.

Lan Ling applied medicine to Ling Chen's wound.

"What else does Hall Master Huo know?" Ling Chen asked him in a low voice.

"No more. The elder brother of a disciple of Ziyitang is on duty in the palace, and he sent a letter asking us not to go out today, for fear of unrest. I have kept people at the city gate for the past few days because I want to wait for Linger. Wait for my people to tell me. I and you are back, I have come here already."

Lan Ling glanced at Huo Jingyun, he must know more than that.

After a while, Tian Ming came in and brought an unknown person with him.

"Master! Fang Qiang is here." Tian Ming said.

The man fell to his knees and cried.

"Speak!" Ling Chen's voice became cold and severe.

"After the lord left, King Ning asked Lancheng to destroy our three stationed teams, arrested people, and said in front of the emperor that he had built the army privately, and he had the opposite intention. Some of the arrested soldiers have been recruited under torture. The emperor was furious, just waiting for the Lord to come back to judge and convict, and Lei Ze was also arrested."

Ling Chen looked at Fan Xing, Fan Xing had already been brought to the battlefield by me, and he didn't let him know about the cavalry camp in the later stage. How could he still be exposed?

"What's the matter with the emperor's illness?"

"After King Ning and the emperor participated in the Wang Ye book, the emperor was furious. Later, they didn't know. King Ning's people said that the emperor vomited blood and fainted, and he was seriously ill. The ministers have not seen the emperor for three days."

"How is my mother-in-law now?"

"Concubine Lin and the emperor are together, and we can't see each other now."

Ling Chen frowned slightly, and sent the dark guard over, but he couldn't get in touch.

Ling Chen understood that between him and King Ning, the moment of your death had come.

"What's the situation in the palace now?" Ling Chen's eyes were unfathomable.

"The princess and Mrs. Hui are still safe. It's just that there are people watching around the palace. A spy was caught a few days ago."

"Tian Ming, go back to the palace and send someone to convene everyone to meet."

Lan Ling had already finished bandaging the injured person.

"Let's go, go back to the palace!" Ling Chen turned around and held Lan Ling's hand.

"Master, let me say goodbye to senior brother." Lan Ling let go of Tawny's hand.

Ling Chen nodded.

Lan Ling leaned over to Huo Jingyun and said in a low voice, "Senior brother, I'm back, I'll come back to you when I have a chance." Lan Ling chirped.

"Okay." Huo Jingyun looked at her with a smile.

"Senior brother, you clearly know a lot of things, why didn't you tell me?" Lan Ling couldn't help but asked in a low voice.

"For the safety of Tsing Yi Tang. He is the prince, and even later... Will he like Tsing Yi Tang and know too much?"

"Yeah." Lan Ling stuck out his tongue.

"Then it won't be dangerous for us to go back, right?"

"Not at the moment, An Wang. If I guessed correctly, I have put in a lot of effort. The words of Fang Qiang just now are half-truths. You have to protect yourself. Love is valuable, but you should love yourself even more. !" Huo Jingyun said lightly to Lan Ling.

After returning to the palace safely, Ling Chen did not disturb others.

Lan Ling knew that everyone avoided her, and asked to go back to Chenxiangyuan to rest.

Seeing Lan Ling leave, Fang Qiang stepped forward and knelt down and said to Ling Chen, "Master, a few days ago, we caught a spy near the palace. It's the leader of Lan Jingtian's army."

"The Marshal's Mansion?"

"Yes! To torture him, he only said to come to Mrs. Ling, and no matter how tortured he was, he would not spit."

"Where is the man?"

"In the water prison."
