A harsh sound rang in his ears, but he did not feel any pain. Liu Yutong looked closely.
A man in a gray robe cut the sword in half.
Then a sword stabbed him, and the little monk widened his eyes, covered the wound, and slowly fell to the ground.
"Ma'am, don't be afraid. My master has asked me to protect you."
The man in the grey robe is called Guiyi, he is not very old, with a plain shirt, his hair tied up in a high bun, and a cold face.
He was a death warrior trained by Qiao Shaochu's family. He was adopted by the Qiao family since he was a child and was loyal to the Qiao family. He lived in Shuangjie City, the capital of Beixiang State. After the Qiao family was destroyed, he hid in a village. Later, Tu Yufan sent people to bring them out, and Qiao Shaochu gave this group of death warriors to Tu Yufan.
Tu Yufan let them blend in with the servants and protect Liu Yutong.
"Are you my husband's woman?" Liu Yutong asked excitedly, "How is he now?"
The ghost nodded: "The subordinates will follow the madam for the time being, and the master has not contacted the subordinates for the time being."
Liu Yutong's excitement subsided.
"I forgot that this place is so far away from Beixiang State, and my husband is busy with his affairs, so it is difficult to deliver the letter."
"The master ordered me to protect Madam secretly. Now someone wants to deal with Madam openly. I hope Madam will allow us to follow him."
Liu Yutong did not refuse. Although she seldom went out, now that she knew someone was trying to assassinate her secretly, she had to make sure everything was in place when necessary.
Afterwards, a few gray-robed men came, with a murderous aura on them. It was likely that there was more than one little monk behind them. However, in order to avoid scaring Liu Yutong, he was secretly dealt with by the assassins.
After dealing with the bodies, Liu Yutong returned home safely.
......
When the third prince received the news, a trace of doubt flashed across his mind.
"The people who sent out the attack did not return, and they were all women and children."
The Third Prince's staff said, "Although the Duke of Yan is in a weak position, he still has a certain background. The Shangshu Mansion and Marquis An also protect them. The current situation is serious. Your Highness should not cause more trouble. In addition, the wife of the Censor has a grudge against the Shangshu Mansion, so it is inevitable that her words will be biased."
The Third Prince was displeased: "Xin'er never lies to me. She has been tortured in the Shangshu Mansion since she was a child, but she still has a pure heart. It is very rare. The Second Prince will not let her suffer any grievances again."
The staff sighed secretly when they saw that the Third Prince was so partial to Liu Xin that he even didn't know right from wrong.
.....
Kitamori County
Tu Yufan frowned.
This heroine deserves to die! Liu Yutong has been hiding in the Duke of Yan's mansion and not caring about the world, but the heroine still won't let her go.
Fortunately, he placed the suicide warriors in the entourage, otherwise his wife would have been almost dead.
It seems that I have to take them all over after the situation stabilizes. Tu Yufan looked at the table full of books with a headache.
Now the forces of all parties have been reshuffled. King Gong broke through Yulian Pass and entered Shuangjie City. He killed all the royal family of Beixiang Kingdom on charges of being incompetent, trusting villains, and treason. The emperor of Beixiang Kingdom fled in panic, but was killed by refugees who robbed his property. King Gong now declared himself king and established a country with the title of Yu.
The three largest forces now are the Yu Kingdom headed by King Gong in the north, the force headed by King Wu in the west, and the force headed by Mo Fan in the east.
King Wu lost the initiative, and King Gong obtained Shuangjie City, and obtained a large amount of money, food, and personnel in the city, and his power increased several times.
Now, the King of Wu did not dare to attack the pass, and his army stayed outside Yulian Pass.
At this time, Xiao Que came over with a serious expression: "The King of Wu has sent someone to seek cooperation."
