Chapter 272: Men in Black Attack the Cultivation Garden at Night



The captain of the imperial guards just waved at Old Sun with a cold face and continued to patrol with his men.

"Tsk! Rigid! Idiot!" Old Sun muttered in a low voice.

Five days later, in the middle of the night, outside the Huangzhuang Nursery Garden, inside three bungalows.

Old Sun and a few of his old friends were lying on the kang, sleeping soundly.

These three bungalows are next to the nursery garden and are where they usually live.

Old Sun suddenly felt a stomachache, so he forced himself to get up and go to the toilet.

He was squatting in the open-air toilet and yawning when he heard a whooshing sound passing by.

"Ah!" Old Sun cried out in shock, his sleepiness gone from his mind.

He looked over the low wall of the toilet and saw several dark shadows rushing to the outside of the high wall of the nursery. They took out ropes from their arms and swung them hard, throwing the ropes onto the top of the wall.

Immediately afterwards, several people climbed up the rope quickly.

"Ah!" Old Sun screamed in fright, and then he covered his mouth belatedly.

But this time he was really scared. The "Ah" sound was a little loud, which alarmed the dark shadows on the wall.

Several dark shadows looked at him in unison.

In the moonlight, several pairs of cold eyes shot at Old Sun's face, frightening him so much that his legs went limp.

“Whoosh!”

A dart flew towards Old Sun's head. Old Sun's legs went weak and he fell into the pit with a thud.

But fortunately, the fall just happened to avoid the dart and saved his life.

In the blink of an eye, several dark shadows had climbed onto the top of the high wall.

However, just as several dark shadows were about to stand on the wall, they suddenly began to shake.

Their legs and feet were scratched by the barbed iron hooks on the wall.

In a panic, they could only endure the pain and jump down quickly.

However, just as they jumped into the wall, they found that what was in front of them was not farmland at all, but another wall.

To make matters worse, there were sharp wooden wedges installed between the cracks in the wall.

When they jumped, many of them had their feet pierced by wooden wedges.

This time, they couldn't hold it in any longer and let out howls of "ouch, ouch".

The two people who were lucky enough not to be injured tried their best to rescue their companion.

"Where are you running to!" a deep and powerful male voice came.

Immediately afterwards, more than a dozen imperial guards who had been lying in ambush for a long time jumped out.

They were wearing special boots, jumped onto the wall, and ordered the men in black to surrender, but the men in black refused to obey.

The man in black endured the pain, climbed up the wall and fought with the imperial guards.

However, the strength of the two sides was so different that the man in black soon couldn't hold on.

In the end, only two men in black escaped, and the injured men in black were quickly captured.

But they took advantage of the situation and bit the poison pills hidden in their mouths, committing suicide.

When Old Man Sun was fished out of the cesspool by his old companions, Prince Jin was standing in the open space outside the breeding garden, looking at the corpses of the men in black lined up in a row while listening to the report of the captain of the imperial guards.

"Ouch! Ouch! Why is my life so miserable!" Old Sun was crying and wailing, his whole body was dirty and smelly.

Several old guys frowned, pinched their noses tightly, and stood beside Old Sun in a daze.

"Old Sun, you are lucky this time!" one of the old friends said in a muffled voice.

"Stop shouting! Be careful not to disturb His Majesty the Prince!" said another old fellow, pinching his nose.

"What's that smell!?" King Jin covered his mouth and nose, turned his head in disgust, and just saw Old Man Sun with an indescribable smell!

"What's going on!" King Jin asked in surprise.

The appearance of Old Sun had an even greater impact on King Jin than the corpses of the men in black lying on the ground.

"Reporting to the prince!" One of them took the hand that was pinching his nose and replied.

"Old Sun got up at night and ran into a man in black. He was so scared that he fell into a cesspool!"

Old Sun was extremely embarrassed and cried, "Your Majesty! I was wrong!"

Prince Jin and the dozen or so imperial guards beside him couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Early morning, Liang Mansion in the capital.

Two staggering men in black turned over and jumped into the back wall of Liang Mansion.

The two men rushed to the bedroom of Liang Chaozong and Yao Jinse and knocked on the window frame three times rhythmically.

"Come in!" Liang Chaozong said coldly.

"How's it going?"

One of the men in black said with difficulty, "My lord, this has gone wrong."

"What?!" Liang Chaozong frowned.

"You can't even handle such a small thing, you're such a waste!" Yao Jinse scolded harshly.

The two men in black trembled.

"Ma'am, listen to us. We didn't expect this either."

"We entered the Imperial Manor smoothly, but we didn't expect that the cultivation garden would set traps and ambush the imperial guards."

"There were eight brothers, but only two of us came back alive."

After saying that, the two men in black lowered their heads.

"Forget it, you two can go back!" Liang Chaozong sighed and waved at them.

The two men retreated.

Yao Jinse twisted the handkerchief in her hand vigorously: "We really underestimated the dog emperor. I didn't expect that he had been prepared for this."

"It seems that he attaches great importance to these exotic crops."

"The degree of his attention far exceeded our expectations."

"It seems that this plan is scrapped." Yao Jinse put her hand on Liang Chaozong's shoulder with some disappointment.

Liang Chaozong looked out the window and said thoughtfully: "But fortunately, we have another plan."

"This time, it depends on Dai Viet."

Yao Jinse frowned slightly: "But this time, will the Great Viet Kingdom do what we say?"

"That time we tried to spray the flowers with perfume, but it didn't work. I wonder if Dai Viet will stop cooperating with us because of this."

Liang Chaozong grasped Yao Jinse's delicate hand, gently caressing it twice before saying slowly, "Don't worry. As long as our goals are aligned with Dai Viet's, our cooperation will continue."

Yao Jinse smiled flatteringly and said, "My husband is wise, my husband is the true emperor!"

Xia Zhengqi learned about the night attack on the breeding garden after the morning court session the next day.

"Prince Jin sent a letter saying that no damage was caused in the garden, so Your Majesty please rest assured." The young eunuch who delivered the letter stood aside and reported.

"Did you catch him alive?" Xia Zhengqi asked.

The young eunuch whispered, "We originally captured six, but they all bit the poison pills and committed suicide."

Xia Zhengqi sighed deeply: "How cruel!"

"But at least everything is fine in the garden!" he comforted himself.

Seeing that Xia Zhengqi was a little disappointed, Debao praised him at the right time: "The emperor is indeed foresighted."

"During my last inspection of the cultivation garden, Prince Jin had to strengthen precautions. Otherwise, the consequences would be disastrous."

After hearing this, Xia Zhengqi felt a sudden warmth in his heart and murmured, "It's not me, it's Miao'er."
