In this novel, the Xie family has been loyal through generations, with many sons sacrificing themselves for the country. Despite this, they are still viewed with suspicion by the emperor, who decre...
"Young master, madam, are you alright?!"
"It's alright. Go and settle your parents down. My wife and I can handle things here."
Fortunately, it's our wedding day, and the whole family is in the kitchen cleaning up the dishes.
The kitchen was far from the main house, so the assassins didn't notice it.
Yang Jiayi avoided the assassin's gaze and quickly rushed to the kitchen.
"Xiao Yang, what's wrong? Why are you so out of breath?"
"Assassins are coming! You all need to hide in the cellar right now!"
When Lin Yan built this house, she made sure the kitchen was very large, with four stoves, and the cellar was also very large and well hidden.
Upon hearing the word "assassin," Lin Zhenghong and his wife, as well as Wang Yueshan, all changed their expressions drastically.
They quickly led the children and jumped down into the cellar.
Once they were all inside the cellar, Yang Jiayi hurriedly covered the cellar door and went to the Xie family to protect Madam Xie.
At this moment, masked assassins dressed in black were continuously pouring into the courtyard.
Unlike last time in the prefectural city.
This time, with their own weapons, dealing with dozens of assassins wasn't too difficult.
Seeing that these assassins used the same moves as last time, Xie Muqing narrowed his eyes and raised his voice to remind Lin Yan beside him:
"My lady, this time the assassins are from the same group as last time. Be careful not to get touched by their swords!"
Thinking of the poison from last time, Lin Yan couldn't help but curse under her breath:
"These people are truly despicable!"
Suddenly, her hand inadvertently touched her bulging waist.
That was the poison powder she took from her medicine box just before she left the house.
After killing the assassins in front of him.
Before the assassins in the back could rush forward, Lin Yan quickly handed the handkerchief to Xie Muqing and whispered a reminder in his ear:
"Tie this handkerchief to the tip of your nose. There are so many of them, we'll be exhausted by the time we kill them. I'll sprinkle poison powder on them later, so remember to stay far away."
"My lady, please be careful."
Xie Muqing obediently covered her nose and then took a few steps back.
Seeing their strange movements, the assassins exchanged glances, all seeing confusion in their companion's eyes, completely unable to guess what the two were planning to do.
Enraged, they all raised their longswords and slashed at Lin Yan.
"Trying to pull tricks even before you die! You're asking for it!"
Lin Yan was worried about how to get them all together!
Unexpectedly, they came to us.
As they rushed over together, Lin Yan suddenly smiled!
Her smile stunned the assassins!
I have absolutely no idea what's going on.
At that very moment.
Suddenly, a large amount of powder was thrown at them!
"What is this thing? Ah!"
Seeing their miserable cries of pain, Lin Yan was extremely satisfied!
He raised his voice and sneered:
"You're still too green to play with poison in front of your poison grandma! Since you like poison so much, I'll give you a lot more!"
This medicinal powder is Lin Yan's most prized creation.
No matter how strong a person is, they will become completely weak and powerless within a few dozen seconds after being poisoned.
Of course, all the poison powder she produced was of low toxicity.
It is not a big problem if you accidentally ingest it.
It will be fine after taking the medicine for a few days.
After all, if it were highly poisonous, and someone accidentally came into contact with it, she wouldn't be able to save them...
Just then, a northwest wind blew by.
Many assassins were poisoned by the powder.
In less than half a minute, one assassin after another fell to the ground with a thud.
The swords and knives in their hands fell to the ground one by one.
Taking this opportunity, Xie Muqing went to fight the remaining assassins.
Lin Yan then covered the rear and killed the assassins who were poisoned with the powder with a single blow!
The two worked together.
In less than half an hour, all thirty assassins were annihilated.
Looking at the blood-soaked corpses on the ground, Lin Yan curled her lip in disgust.
He quickly glanced at Xie Mu a few more times and washed his eyes.
Do you know who sent these assassins?
Xie Muqing's eyes darkened, and he slowly lowered his eyelids, his tone filled with indescribable guilt.
"It must be the Fourth Prince. I'm sorry, my wife, they came for me. I've dragged you into this..."
At first, Lin Yan was genuinely a little angry.
Such a big discovery in the prefectural city.
He actually chose to keep it from her and not tell her.
But after killing so many assassins, it seemed that all the resentment in her heart had been vented.
“We’re family, so why talk about being implicated? But we’ll need to find a few more guards. Our family and your mother’s side both need protection. It’s just that these corpses are a problem to deal with…”
Lin Yan had a bit of a headache.
Even if you dragged thirty corpses to the back mountain, it would take more than a dozen trips.
She was a little tired after the fight.
Suddenly, two streaks of silver light rushed over.
"Awoo~ Awoo~"
The two wolf cubs were only three or four months old.
But it's just my nature.
He couldn't suppress his craving for bloodshed.
Before they even touched the corpse, Lin Yan picked them up, one in each hand.
"Big White, Little White, get out of here! You can't eat this meat!"
Because of their mischief, she actually came up with a solution.
She picked up the whistle she had used before and blew it a few times towards the back of the mountain, followed by a wolf howl.
Not long after, the mother wolf led her large pack down the mountain.
"These corpses are all yours. Eat them as cleanly as you can. Thank you."
Regardless of whether the wolf pack could understand her or not, Lin Yan left the courtyard space to the wolf pack.
Holding two wolf cubs in one hand and pulling Xie Muqing along with the other, she walked towards the kitchen.
"Let's leave here first and go see our parents. We'll come back after they've finished dealing with this."
