The world of bad people is invincible

Chapter 344 Your Majesty, stay here in peace, I will come back as soon as I go!
On the second day, Xu Dexun, who woke up early, finished dressing quickly.

He straightened his clothes, sat in front of the desk, and wrote something on the paper with a pen.

The names of Ma Xiyue, Ma Xisheng, and Ma Xifan Xu Dexun written on the paper are the sons of the king of Chu, Ma Yin.

He looked at these names and pondered for a long time, and finally crossed out some of them, leaving only two names: Ma Xiyue and Ma Xisheng.

Among them, Ma Xiyue is the well-known eldest son of the Chu Kingdom, but he is relatively mediocre and has the intention of defecting to the enemy; and Ma Xisheng is the favorite son of Chu King Ma Yin, who is kind but too shallow...

Xu Dexun thought for a long time, raised and lowered the pen in his hand, but finally failed to make a decision.

At this moment, a man in black suddenly appeared in the room and presented him with a letter.

After Xu Dexun took the letter and read it, he was suddenly startled.

At this time, his expression was mixed with grief and shock at first, but in the end it was extremely dignified.

He thought for a moment, then turned around immediately, and picked up the sword that Ma Yin bestowed on him.

"Come on! Gather the army and visit the Second Young Master with me!"

Tanzhou City, also known as Changsha, is a city with a long history.

Moreover, as the capital of Chu State, Tanzhou is only slightly inferior to Bianzhou in terms of prosperity.

The bustling flow of people and businessmen coming and going will stop in Tanzhou.And because of the vigorous development of commerce and trade by King Ma Yin of Chu, the prosperity of Tanzhou's commerce even surpassed that of Bianzhou.

Li Cunxu found a good place near the window on the second floor of Yanbo Building.

He curiously looked at the female workers working non-stop through the viewing window on the wall.

Chu State is good at producing silkworms, and Ma Yin ordered the people to pay taxes with silk instead of money in order to develop the textile industry.

I have to say that the silks and satins of Chu State are really dazzling.

The sound of silk and bamboo orchestras floats in the street, as well as delicious food and the smell of flowers.

There were even beautiful petals flying in the air from time to time. Li Cunxu sat by the window and caught a petal as soon as he stretched out his hand, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

He is in a good mood now.

The empress looked at the petals in Li Cunxu's hands, smiled and said, "The flowers here are also very beautiful."

Li Cunxu was not overly optimistic, he just said: "Beauty is beauty, but it is a pity that it will wither soon."

"However, it is not terrible for flowers to wither, after all, flowers have a day to bloom again." The empress said meaningfully: "But if something happens to the flower grower, these flowers may never have a day to bloom again."

"These are not things we can worry about for the time being." Li Cunxu glanced at her, shook his head and said, "What we have to do now is to wait."

When the empress heard this, she just smiled and sighed silently, and took a sip of her tea.

After a long while, Zhang Zifan walked in.

"Your Highness, Ruona has no intention of leaving the mansion today, and"

"And what?"

"The Right Prime Minister Xu Dexun sent troops to surround Ruona's mansion." Zhang Zifan's eyes were full of worry when he said this.He looked at Li Cunxu and said, "Shall we save him?"

Li Cunxu shook his head.

"Wait and watch the changes, and move with the camera!"

"Yes!"

In Ma Xisheng's mansion.

Ma Xisheng was still lying on the bed hesitating, but suddenly heard a bang and bang.

He sat up suddenly, turned over and jumped out of bed, opened the door and looked outside.

There were soldiers of Chu State outside the door. They were holding steel knives and long spears, and the blades shone brightly in the sun.

Xu Dexun, dressed in soft armor, stood in the courtyard, pressed the sword under his side, and shouted loudly: "Second Young Master, please go with the old minister!"

Ma Xisheng was shocked when he heard the words.

Xu Dexun was originally Ma Xiyue's right-hand man. Could it be that his actions were instigated by Ma Xiyue?
Ma Xisheng kept thinking in his heart.

After a while, he suppressed the thoughts in his heart, stood at the door and shouted towards the courtyard: "Xu Dexun, you lead troops to surround this place, do you want to plot rebellion?!"

Xu Dexun shook his head, with a look of utter loyalty, and said: "Second Young Master, you are joking, this old minister is here to better protect you!"

Ma Xi looked at the soldiers with cold eyes, and said sarcastically, "Then that's how you protect them?"

Xu Dexun stopped talking, just looked at him calmly.

But at this time, Ma Xisheng also resigned to his fate.

Xu Dexun is so inspiring, he will never give up easily.

Ma Xisheng secretly sighed "Brother" in his heart, and walked out towards the courtyard.

"Second Young Master, offended!"

Xu Dexun quickly walked up to Ma Xisheng.As soon as he waved his hand, a soldier came up and took Ma Xisheng out.

At this time, Ma Xiyue was hosting a banquet for Li Xingyun and others.

He glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw an eunuch bent over and walked under the throne with an anxious look on his face.

Ma Xiyue waved to him.The eunuch stepped forward and whispered in his ear: "Xu Xiang has already led the troops to arrest the second young master!"

Hearing this, Ma Xiyue laughed out loud.

"Although Xu Xiang obeys me on the surface, I know that he has always been impartial. This time he caught Ma Xisheng, it means that he chose to stand by my side."

Shi Yao's martial arts are outstanding, and her hearing is also excellent, so she naturally heard the eunuch's whispers.

She didn't care about anything, and blessed Ma Xiyue generously, congratulating and said: "That's really congratulations, young master!"

Ma Xiyue waved his hand casually, but seeing that the eunuch seemed to have something to say, he looked at him again and motioned for him to speak.

The eunuch lowered his head and said: "Just now, Prime Minister Xu sent someone to invite you to the mansion to discuss important affairs of the country."

After hearing this, Ma Xiyue was overjoyed.

"Great! Someone! Prepare the horse! I'm going to the Prime Minister's Mansion right now!"

Shi Yao carefully reminded him from the side: "Ma Xisheng has been detained, so there is nothing wrong with it. It's just that the eldest son's mansion is some distance away from the prime minister's mansion, why don't the eldest son bring more guards?"

"Miss Shiyao is worrying too much!" Ma Xiyue waved his hand and said, "This is the capital of Chu State, who dared to assassinate me here?"

Shi Yao nodded after hearing this, and seeing that Ma Xiyue didn't take it seriously, she didn't insist anymore.

At this time, Ma Xiyue took a look at Li Xingyun and the others, cupped his hands, and said, "Your Majesty, stay here in peace, I'll go back as soon as I go!"

……

There was a steady stream of people coming and going on the street, and Ma Xiyue rushed to the Prime Minister's Mansion with a dozen entourages and guards.

They soon came to Xiangfu.

But at this time, the gate of Xiangfu was tightly closed.

Seeing this, Ma Xiyue thought it was because Xu Dexun invited him to have a secret talk, and felt that Xu Dexun was more cautious in his actions.

However, just as he opened the door and walked into the courtyard, he saw a rain of arrows shooting towards them at high speed.

Ma Xiyue was startled immediately.Fortunately, a guard stood in front of him desperately, so he escaped unharmed.

But others were not so lucky.Except for Ma Xiyue and a few guards who were still alive, all the others were shot into hedgehogs, and they seemed to be dying.

Seeing that something was wrong, Ma Xiyue quickly yelled, "Come here! There are assassins!"

I don't know if Ma Xiyue's cry for help played a role, but the arrow rain actually stopped.

Ma Xiyue, who survived the catastrophe, was overjoyed, and then saw Xu Dexun walking out of the courtyard and walking towards him.

"Xu Xiang, quickly dispatch troops to escort! There are assassins!"

Xu Dexun didn't speak, he still walked towards Ma Xiyue quickly.When he was only a few steps away from Ma Xiyue, he suddenly pulled out a sharp sword from his waist and ran towards Ma Xiyue!
Ma Xiyue was greatly surprised and stared at Xu Dexun.

Before Ma Xiyue could react, Xu Dexun had rushed to his side, picked up his sword and stabbed him three times in the chest!

"Ah! Ah! Ah!"

Ma Xiyue suddenly let out three screams, and immediately pressed his chest.

However, the blood on his chest could no longer be stopped, and bright red blood kept flowing from his clothes and fingers.

Ma Xiyue stared at Xu Dexun with his hands covered in blood, "Xu...you...I..." But finally he didn't say a word.

"puff!"

Ma Xiyue suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood, then fell down with his head on the ground, unable to get up again.

Xu Dexun watched all this calmly, and even calmly took out a white cloth from his arms to wipe the blood on the sword.

Afterwards, he threw away the blood-stained white cloth, and immediately shouted: "Traitors seek glory, traitors and treacherous traitors, everyone must be punished!"
