Emperor Jin

Chapter 60 The Phantom
Huang Minggui glared at the assassin who was threatening with a sword, and while secretly blaming himself for being careless, he couldn't help but glance at the queen hiding behind the throne——

It's really strange...why didn't this person attack the queen, but only held a mere court lady hostage?
This thought flashed through his mind, and he didn't have time to think about it. He just watched this scene helplessly, with deep inner strength in his body, but he hesitated.

The emperor watched from the side, and he had regained his composure. He sneered, and said, "You were the first to assassinate, and after you were defeated, you actually kidnapped a little palace maid. You are really shameless!"

The assassin snorted coldly, he didn't care about this aggressive method at all, he tightened the snow blade in his hand, a bright red stream suddenly flowed from Baojin's snowy neck, it was shocking to watch.

"It's useless to talk more... help my companion over here!"

He signaled with his eyes that the previous assassin who pretended to be a eunuch was slumped on the ground, and was being captured by several servants of the military prison.

The emperor's face was as usual, and he was furious in his heart. He spoke slowly, his voice was not high, but it was like an ice blade passing through the hearts of everyone, forming a low sound like gold and stone in the hall——

"Do as he says."

The assassin stood up in embarrassment, moved to the side of the captor, panting heavily, hastily tapped acupuncture points to stop the bleeding, and struggled to stay on the ground with his sword.

The hostage-taker laughed dryly, and praised almost sarcastically: "Your Majesty, the Emperor, really promises everything... Next, please give an order to let these Jinwu guards give us a way out!"

At this time, the chaos among the ranks stopped, and a large number of forbidden troops rushed into the hall. Although the crowd was crowded and noisy, they still wiped out the rebels one by one.

The survivors of the catastrophe did not have time to catch their breath when they heard the emperor shouted in a deep voice on the high tower, "It's really ridiculous! You are assassinating in the palace and plotting rebellion, and you still want a way out?!"

Seeing his sudden thunderous rage, the assassin was unafraid, "We follow Zhuan Zhu Yurang's example, we have always had the ambition to die, but now that we have the bargaining chip, we don't have to die for nothing."

"Chips?!"

The emperor smiled coldly, with a look of serenity and contempt in his handsome eyes, "What kind of bargaining chip is a mere little court lady?!"

"Is she really an ordinary little maid? I'm afraid not!"

The assassin sneered in a low voice, and said meaningfully: "Long live is really powerful, no matter how much your heart flutters, your face is peaceful and calm..."

"It's just that if I really raise the knife, this cowardly beauty like a flower, I'm afraid my head will be decapitated. At that time, Long Live will... regret it!"

After finishing speaking, his eyes suddenly shone with fanaticism, and he yelled, "Get out of the way!"

The blade became heavier, and a long gash was drawn on the snowy neck. Drops of bright red blood fell on the ground and reflected in the emperor's eyes. His heart couldn't help but ache.

The imperial army was heavily armored, their swords, guns, swords and halberds gleamed coldly under the light of the lamps and candles. They surrounded the throne and turned a deaf ear to the clamor of the assassins.

Seeing that the emperor was as immobile as a mountain, the assassin knew that there was no reason for it. He gritted his teeth, glanced at the slender woman in his palm, and was about to chop off with his sword——

At the juncture of life and death, Baojin no longer cared about keeping a low profile, rolled up his sleeves with his fingers, and the silver needle in his palm was about to shoot out in an instant!

The Qi in the hall froze to the extreme at this moment, the entire hall was dead silent, and even the sound of people's breathing could be heard.

"stop."

The emperor's low voice finally broke the silence.

His voice was calm, but with an imperceptible sense of despondency——

After all... I still can't be cruel!

He sighed secretly, and ordered: "Let them out of the palace!"

"The emperor can't...!"

The leader of the Forbidden Army shouted tremblingly, and immediately after being glanced at by the emperor, he dared not say any more.

Filled with unwillingness, the soldiers of the Imperial Army put away their swords and guns to make room for one person.

The two assassins, as well as the kidnapped Baojin, walked slowly out of the hall under the watchful eyes of everyone.

In the open space outside the hall, the lightly lit torches in the hands of the soldiers illuminated the night sky as brightly as day.The tide-like crowd surrounded the three of them.

"You can leave...but keep her!"

The emperor led the crowd out of the palace, his eyes were piercing, and he was not angry. The fire and sky light reflected in his eyes, like a god in the dark night, which made people frightened.

The kidnapper ignored it, the other coughed, wiped the blood from his lips, and said with a sinister smile:
"Long live what a joke—we'll be shot into honeycombs if we let go, why don't we let this girl give us a—"

Before the last word "Cheng" could be uttered, a white shadow flashed in the firelight of the night, shooting into his throat like a shooting star!
The snow-white feathers were pure and elegant, penetrating the throat with incomparable accuracy, and the blood burst out, stained with this cleanliness!

This sudden elbow and armpit, no one expected, everyone exclaimed in unison, and couldn't help but look up at the eaves.

On the eaves and phoenix tower in the distance, glazed tiles are shining brightly under the moon, blurred and in a trance.

In the star-studded night, there is a figure with no smog standing proudly on the top of the eaves.

She drew the longbow in her hand furiously, and her sassy figure seemed to be solidified in the night for eternity.
