Chapter 129: Killing Move

The people who came were Xuanming and Chiyan.

They looked at the five bodies on the ground, their faces changed slightly, and they quickly went forward to check the situation.

"Your Majesty is right. There are assassins lying in ambush in the hunting grounds!"

Chi Yan searched their bodies for a long time but found no useful clues. "From the wounds, they were all killed by a single blow. It seems that the person who killed them was an extremely powerful person."

Xuan Ming rolled his eyes at him speechlessly, "Isn't this obvious?"

Chi Yan touched his chin, revealing a thoughtful expression, "The key to the problem is, who killed them? We were a step slow, how are we going to report to the emperor now?"

"If you carry a body back, we can complete the mission."

"Oh, okay..."

Chi Yan found a corpse that looked the lightest on the ground, but when he dragged it up, it was still very heavy.

He grunted as he pulled the body onto his back. Just as he was about to ask Xuanming for a hand, he discovered that he was walking up the slope in front of him. "Hey! Don't go. Come over here and help!"

Xuan Ming tapped the long drag mark on the ground with his foot and said, "This mark is a bit strange. I'll go over and take a look. You figure out how to drag the body up there yourself."

"My..."

Chi Yan opened his mouth, but before he could finish his words, Xuan Ming had already climbed up the slope.

Poor Chi Yan could only grit his teeth and continue to drag the corpse with all his strength.

After Murong Nan and Chu Xinyue dragged the body to the place where the horses were tied, Chu Xinyue asked Murong Nan to ride with her, tied up the injured man in black and threw him on his horse, and took them back to the camp together.

"Drive——"

After the rain, the sky cleared up and the couple escaped from danger again. Murong Nan felt indescribably happy.

He looked at Chu Xinyue who was sitting in front of him, riding a horse and whipping it, and reached out to hold her waist tightly.

"Ayue, your waist is so thin and I feel so safe!"

As he said this, he rubbed his face against her back twice.

Chu Xinyue listened to the coquettish tone of the person behind her, raised her chin, and whipped the horse again, "Drive!"

Boy, your fighting ability is just the least noteworthy advantage of my body. Just wait and see how I can charm you to death in the future.

…

When they returned to the camp, Xue Youli ran out first. Seeing that both of them were soaked, she breathed a sigh of relief, "Yuebao! Are you all okay?"

"It's okay!"

Chu Xinyue pointed at Murong Nan's horse behind her and said to her, "We also brought a gift back for the emperor!"

Xue Youli looked at the man in black on horseback, his eyes lit up, "Did you catch him alive?"

Not only are the assassins difficult to deal with, but if their mission fails they will commit suicide on the spot, leaving themselves no chance of becoming prisoners.

When Chu Xinyue found Murong Nan, she not only helped him escape successfully, but also brought back a living captive. This is truly an amazing skill.

Murong Nan didn't wait for Chu Xinyue to reply, and answered, "Yes, it was my Ah Yue who caught the man! Ah Yue is so amazing! With just a bow and arrow, she beat the bad guys one against six!"

When he said this, his eyes were shining and his face was full of admiration for Chu Xinyue.

Xue Youli glanced at him and whispered to Chu Xinyue, "Ah Yue, your trip to the forest was not in vain. You got Murong Nan, a little fanboy."

Murong Nan was forced to marry Chu Xinyue because of the accident in the summer palace and the imperial decree from his brother Murong Che.

However, as a couple, they have experienced life and death together today, and he must have developed a genuine admiration and love for Chu Xinyue in his heart.

At this time, Murong Che also came over. Seeing that the two of them were soaking wet, he immediately said, "I have ordered people to prepare hot water. Go take a bath and change into dry clothes. Don't catch a cold."

"OK."

Murong Nan nodded and pulled Chu Xinyue away. He took a few steps and then stepped back. "Brother, this man is an assassin we caught in the hunting ground. You should interrogate him carefully. Maybe they are lying in ambush in the forest to harm the Nanzhao envoy and disrupt the peace talks. Jiuzhou and Nanzhao will fall into chaos again!"

Xue Youli couldn't help but nod when he heard this. "Your Highness Prince Kang is right. If something goes wrong when we entertain the Nanzhao envoys, the King of Nanzhao will definitely not let it go!"

[Murong Nan usually looks like a dandy and romantic guy, but I didn't expect him to have good judgment. What he said really hits the nail on the head.]

[Murong Ye assigned two tasks to the six assassins hiding in the deep forest. One was to find an opportunity to assassinate Murong Che, and the other was to find a way to deal with General Meng Shi of Nanzhao.]

[No matter who died among them, it was great news for Murong Ye. Unfortunately, his wishful thinking failed this time, because all the assassins died at the hands of A Yue! ]

Murong Che was secretly happy as he listened to Xue Youli's inner thoughts.

His second brother had been planning for so long, but in the end, it was all in vain.

Murong Che was just thinking about it when he saw Murong Ye walking towards them with a worried look on his face. "Fifth brother, I'm so glad you're safe and sound! I just heard that you got lost in the woods, and I was just about to go in and look for you!"

Chu Xinyue and Xue Youli looked at each other and were disgusted by Murong Ye's pretentious look.

The assassins are all his men, why is he, a big shot, pretending here?

Thinking of this, Chu Xinyue took a step to the side, deliberately separating him from Murong Nan, "Your Highness, Prince Xian, the prince and I are fine. I don't know which blind person dared to send assassins to harm this princess. This princess has dealt with them all, leaving only one alive for the emperor to interrogate. These assassins have ulterior motives. No matter what means they use, they must pry open his mouth and ask for useful information!"

Murong Ye glanced around, pausing for a moment on the blood amber on her waist, and then looked inconspicuously at the man in black with his chin removed on horseback.

However, as soon as his eyes met those of the man in black, he quickly looked away.

Chu Xinyue raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Huh? Your Highness, the assassin got a little excited when he saw you. Could he know you?"

Xue Youli immediately chimed in, "Yes, the assassin was mumbling something. Could it be that he wanted to say something to His Royal Highness the King?"

[Murong Ye is so arrogant that he dared to arrange assassins for the Autumn Hunt. Now the people who caught him are fighting in front of him. I'm afraid he must be sweating profusely, right? ]

Murong Ye secretly tightened his five fingers, and when he looked at the assassin again, his eyes were full of anger, "This group of assassins dared to target my fifth brother and the princess. How could the assassins want to talk to me? I am afraid that I am also their target! With the emperor's thorough investigation of this matter, I believe he will be able to give an explanation to my fifth brother and the princess!"

Chu Xinyue smiled and nodded, "Your Highness Prince Xian is right. My clothes and yours are soaked. I will leave now. I will leave everything to the Emperor."

After saying that, she dragged the man away without waiting for Murong Nan to talk to his second brother.

Murong Che turned his head and glanced at Murong Ye. "Second brother, I will definitely give an explanation to my fifth brother and the others! Come, take the assassin away and interrogate him strictly. We must find out the mastermind behind this!"

"yes!"

Murong Che gave an order and two guards immediately pulled the assassin down from his horse and took him away.

Murong Ye had never expected that the six assassins he had taken great pains to send to the hunting ground before closing the mountain would be gone just like that. He was so angry that he almost bit his back teeth to pieces.

The assassins were loyal to him and would not betray him even if they were tortured.

He changed his mind and thought that the assassin being caught might not be a bad thing.

After all, Murong Che and his men thought the crisis was resolved and would inevitably relax their vigilance.

Little did they know that this was just the beginning.

The killing plan he arranged is not as simple as just six assassins!

However, tonight he unexpectedly discovered that the wedding gift he gave to Murong Nan was worn by Chu Xinyue.

That thing was originally used to control Murong Nan.

But now, he suddenly felt that it was more interesting to control Chu Xinyue.
