Chapter 179 Assassination
Chapter 179 Assassination
"On a dark and windy night, it's the time for murder and arson!"
"The moon tonight is indeed not very bright!" Shen Chenli echoed.
Late at night, in the backyard of a villa in the suburbs of Beijing.
Yu Tingwan and Shen Chenli sat together under the eaves, drinking tea and appreciating the beautiful night sky.
Actually, there was nothing to appreciate. It was pitch black and windy. If it weren't for the gauze curtain in front of Yu Tingwan, she wouldn't want to drink the tea!
And they were not sitting here drinking tea in the middle of the night for no reason. They just received news that someone wanted to kill them, so they were sitting here waiting!
However, they have been sitting here for half a day and haven't seen a single person. Could it be that the secret guard's information was wrong?
"Princess, the secret guards' information will never be wrong!"
An Yi expressed dissatisfaction with the princess's questioning. They are professional secret guards, how could they make mistakes!
"Well, let me see how powerful this killer is!"
However, I don't know what kind of killer Yu Huaiyi will hire. Is he from Mingge? That would be too boring!
"That can't be said. There must be someone else involved, so there may be more than just killers from Mingge."
After taking a look at Shen Chenli who was speaking, Yu Tingwan realized that he had unknowingly spoken out what was in his heart.
Then he turned to look at the people around him and asked, "Besides him, I can only think of Prince Dongping."
There are only these two people who know that my mother is still alive and want her to die. Is there anyone else?
Shen Chenli looked at her helplessly and reminded her:
"Besides mother, what about you? And what about grandpa? And... what about me?"
Uh, it turns out that some people dislike her?
Yu Tingwan frowned: "Why haven't I heard of anyone assassinating me before?"
"Princess, those minions can't even enter the outer perimeter of the palace. Besides, how dare we disturb your rest because of these little shrimps?"
An Si was hanging upside down on the beam, answering Yu Tingwan's questions quietly.
Looking at his appearance that looks like a big bat, people with poor psychological endurance would probably faint from fright!
Yu Tingwan was quite dissatisfied with his answer.
"Then I also need to know who wants to kill me? You won't even tell me that?"
This will make those people even more unscrupulous!
Hearing this, An Si fled decisively. Let’s leave the princess’s anger to the prince!
Glancing at the place where An Si was hiding, Shen Chenli felt that since this guy followed the princess, he had become more and more outrageous in front of him!
Seeing that this man did not answer her question but just looked around, Yu Tingwan felt even more dissatisfied. She reached out to push his shoulder, but before she could touch him, he grabbed her hand accurately.
Holding the softness in his hand, Shen Chenli explained to her slowly and calmly.
"Wanwan, this is my order. There are only a few people in the capital who dislike you, and they can only send out small soldiers and generals. You were worrying about the poison in my body at that time, so I naturally couldn't disturb you with these trivial matters."
Her thoughts were instantly distracted by Shen Chenli. Yu Tingwan frowned and thought deeply. When had she ever worried about the poison in his body?
Didn't she use the wrong dosage and use the spiritual spring water to eliminate the problem immediately?
She didn't bother...
Looking at Shen Chenli's expression, Yu Tingwan fell silent. Forget it. He felt that he was wasting his time and energy, so let him just feel that way. Anyway, he was not suffering any loss!
Yu Tingwan's small hand, which was being kneaded by him, turned around, broke free from his grasp, and pushed him away.
"Why are you so slow? I don't want to hear this. Who sent these people? Let's take note of it and settle the score with them tonight!"
"Settling accounts?"
Shen Chenli was puzzled. Could this kind of assassination be settled openly?
Seeing the doubt in his eyes, Yu Tingwan raised her eyebrows and said, "Of course, this kind of thing is only fun in secret!"
As if thinking of something interesting, Yu Tingwan deliberately lowered his voice and said faintly:
“You said, if they don’t receive the news of the assassination success tonight, and their minds have been tortured tonight, they will wake up tomorrow morning and suddenly see a row of human heads hanging above their heads, still dripping with blood.
Blood slid down his forehead, and a few drops dripped onto their lips and eyelids... When they saw clearly, they were staring at him with eyes wide open, unwilling to close! Wouldn't that be an interesting scene?"
Seeing the evil look in Yu Tingwan's eyes, Shen Chenli nodded slowly, approving her approach and asked a question.
"This method sounds interesting, but the blood will coagulate very quickly after a person dies, so it's probably difficult to achieve the dripping blood effect you mentioned."
Hearing this, Yu Tingwan waved his hands, indicating that it was no big deal.
"Don't worry, for the sake of the excitement of this scene, I will never let my blood freeze!"
The group of people surrounding the two people felt their scalps tingling.
They are truly a couple, they can discuss such things seriously!
Shen Chenli nodded, turned around and told Wei Ming, "Go get a booklet and record for the princess who will be here tonight. Don't miss any. If the princess can't find the owners of the heads, then hang the heads of those whose owners can't be found on your heads."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Wei Ming shuddered, not daring to even think of that scene.
Then he quickly turned around and went into the house to get paper and pen, fearing that he would miss someone!
An Yi came out from the darkness and replied respectfully:
"Your Highness, Princess, Madam Jiang and Old Master Jiang have already arranged for people to come and will definitely not let these scoundrels disturb them."
Yu Tingwan nodded, feeling very satisfied.
"Okay, let's wait here and see how lively this evening will be."
After a while, everyone heard a sound of breaking air, and then everyone guarding outside started to move.
Yu Tingwan and Shen Chenli looked at each other and saw a hint of coldness in each other's eyes.
There are quite a lot of people coming!
Soon, the sounds of fighting died down and An Si came forward to reply.
"Master, the ones coming are a group of minions. We can't tell who they belong to for now."
Wei Ming, who was about to take his notes, paused and looked over with a sullen look.
An Si shrugged. He really didn’t realize that those people were just here to explore the way!
Yu Tingwan waved his hand to signal Wei Ming to remember it.
"Go back and count the number of people whose origins are unknown, and send them all to the Shangshu Mansion!"
Wei Ming's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly to write it down.
At this time, Minister Yu is still useful!
An Si lit a candle in his heart for Yu Huaiyi, causing him to treat the princess badly, and now he is hated!
They didn't chat for long before another group of killers pounced on them.
This group was obviously much more skilled than the previous ones, and everyone rushed forward to fight.
Yu Tingwan stood up and looked at the lights and shadows flashing outside, narrowing his eyes slightly.
"What's wrong? Don't worry about mother and grandparents."
Thinking that she was worried about Shen Chenli over there, he came to Yu Tingwan and stood side by side.
"No, I was thinking, I haven't moved my hands and feet for a long time, do you want to have some?"
"Ok?"
