The Reborn Noble Daughter

Chapter 123 123. Assassination

The family had a happy lunch, and Bai Xiang and others were invited to the study to play chess.

They had nothing to do when they went back. It just so happened that today everyone was in good order, so they could play six-player military chess.

Six-man army chess is a way of playing chess spread among the armies of the Jin Dynasty. Each party fights separately, but three parties form a group. They divide and combine until the other five parties are completely wiped out. The winner is naturally the winner.

　　Everyone present was wily and scheming, but Feng Jinlin was as powerful as breaking a bamboo. He went up and killed every opponent by surprise.

Uncle Bai snorted and smiled. Children are easily impatient. He jumped out so quickly. He really couldn't hold himself back.

With a backhand, he gave him a "big gift", and several pawns in front of him were instantly destroyed.

Feng Jinlin's eyebrows were raised high. He looked at Uncle Bai and blurted out, "Uncle is unreasonable. How can you copy my nephew's tricks?"

　　　“Hey, a war never tires of deceit.”

Muttered twice, Feng Jinlin's arrogance was knocked down a little, but Feng Jinxu immediately made up for it and circled Uncle Bai's chess piece, unable to move for a short time.

If the other two parties come to rescue, they will definitely be caught in the loop. If they don't rescue, then Uncle Bai's side will be in a dead end.

 Bai Shiro smiled bitterly, he was not good at this in the first place, and he was unable to fight back after being tricked by his nephew. It had to be said that this eldest nephew was as thoughtful as their father in terms of thoughtfulness.

 Seeing that Prime Minister Bai did not take into account the battle situation on Bai Silang's side, he instead launched a fierce attack on Feng Hai and went straight to the camp. Feng Jinxu and Feng Jinlin had to protect Bai Silang, which relieved Bai Silang's crisis.

With a good move to surround Wei and rescue Zhao, Feng Jinlin's admiration for his grandfather grew to a higher level.

Feng Hai twisted the chess piece in his hand and thought for a long time before making a slight decision. Bai Silang took a look and saw what kind of move this was.

 “Brother-in-law, you’re going the wrong way. Wouldn’t you be asking for your own death?”

Even though he was not very good at playing military chess, he knew that he would definitely die if he walked here, but he never thought that Feng Jinxu would turn over the dead chess piece in that piece. Feng Jinlin was not polite and pulled Bai Dalang's chess piece to die together.

 The battlefield is constantly changing, and so is the chess game.

Bai Silang, Bai Dalang, and Feng Jinlin were eliminated, leaving only Bai Xiang alone to fight fiercely against the Feng family father and son, but he did not show any signs of decline.

Feng Hai and his son Feng Jinxu, one attacking and the other defending, cooperated very well. Unfortunately, the opponent was the old and strong Bai Xiang, and the father and son did not gain much from the battle.

 After a few cups of tea, the two sides were still fighting fiercely.

Bai Dalang took a sip of tea. Although he said nothing, his eyes looked at Feng Jinxu with more surprise and envy.

If such a good child can be under his knees, the Bai family will have hope.

It's a pity, but even though his surname is Feng, he still needs to support himself in the future.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but think about it. If I can't go to Qingzhou, what position should I arrange in the capital?

Although he is only a bachelor of the Imperial Academy, his father has great authority, and a few words in the Ministry of Officials still carry weight.

 After half a stick of incense, the chess game was finally over.

Feng Hai was eliminated first, and Feng Jinxu held on for a long time. In the end, he was defeated by Bai Xiang by one move. However, he did not leave many pieces on the chessboard, so it was a narrow victory.

“My grandfather is good at what he does, but my grandson is willing to be inferior.”

Bai Xiang stroked his gray beard and looked at Feng Hai and his son, his eyes full of fondness.

They have both the decision-makers sitting in the middle army, the front troops charging into the battle, and not forgetting the back-up troops. These three people of the Feng family are really powerful. This son-in-law did not make any mistakes. He was very kind to his daughter and even raised the children very well.

Looking back at the three sons under his knees, Bai Xiang was a little disappointed.

So what if he has so much power now? In the future, I am afraid that the Feng family will rise and the Bai family will fall.

Feng Hai is such a good person, he can naturally see what his father-in-law is thinking, so he said sincerely, "Don't worry, father-in-law, we will always be a family."

Bai Xiang smiled, his eyes filled with relief and emotion.

He patted Feng Hai on the shoulder and said, "You are better than me."

 After saying that, he looked at the two grandsons standing in front of him, liking them even more.

The chess game in the study came to an end for the time being. Mrs. Feng in the front hall sent someone to send a message to discuss the matter, so Feng Hai withdrew first.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the corridor, he encountered a masked man in black. Without saying a word, he came up and stabbed him very cruelly.

If Feng Hai hadn't had a little bit of skill, he would have become a dead soul by the sword at this moment.

Feng Jinlin had the most sensitive ears. As soon as he heard the sound of fighting, his smiling face immediately darkened and he rushed outside.

Everyone present was confused. Uncle Bai even asked, "What's wrong?"

Then Feng Jinlin shouted, "What kind of villain dares to come to my Feng family to assassinate me!"

 After saying that, he flew towards the man. Feng Hai's kung fu was only at the level of a three-legged cat, but Feng Jinlin was different. Both his moves and strength were amazing.

Seeing his son fighting with that man, Feng Hai was stunned. Why didn't he know that his son's kung fu was so good?

The man was holding a sharp blade, and Feng Jinlin fought with his bare hands. The more he fought, the more he felt something was wrong. Why did this man's skills seem familiar? Could it be someone he knew?

Feng Er’s exclamation just now attracted several people in the room. Feng Jinxu did not know martial arts, but at this moment, he stood in front of the three elders and blocked them with his flesh and blood.

Hearing the footsteps of many people coming from a distance, the man in black could only fight with two fists and was too lazy to fight with Feng Jinlin. When he found an opportunity, he stabbed Feng Hai in the heart.

Feng Er couldn't protect him in time, and saw the sharp blade piercing Feng Hai's body, and blood spurted out with a slurp.

Feng Jinlin’s eyes were filled with tears, “Father!”

The servants who rushed around were about to surround the place. Seeing that the situation was not good, the man jumped up and fled the scene.

Feng Jinlin wanted to chase him, but Feng Jinxu scolded him, "Save father first."

Hunting him to leave, Feng Jinxu hurriedly lowered his body, hugged Feng Hai, and ran to the main courtyard. Upon seeing this, Feng Jinlin said, "I'll find Dr. Zhang to climb over the wall" and left.

Prime Minister Bai was calm and immediately issued an order, "Boss, go to Yingtian Mansion and report to the official that someone has assassinated an important official of the imperial court. Ask Yingtian Mansion to issue a wanted order and make sure to chase the culprit back. Fourth Brother, you go home and bring him back." Bring over the wild ginseng and the hemostatic powder given by His Majesty, just in case you need it."

Although the two sons had never experienced such a scene, they only panicked for a moment, then calmed down under their father's command and did what they were told.

 The female family members who were still chatting lively in the front hall suddenly heard the news that Feng Hai had been stabbed, and they all screamed in surprise.

Mrs. Feng was so angry that she fainted. Fortunately, Princess Wen Yi behind her had quick eyesight and quick hands to support her falling body.
