Chapter 36 Assassination (1)
"ah?"
I exclaimed, and my whole body immediately shrank back. The pain on my lips made me look at Hu Meixin in surprise. I really didn't know why she bit me under such circumstances.
Hu Meixin looked at me with some resentment and said softly: "I...we haven't gotten married yet, so this won't work..."
"So that's how it is!" It seemed that her love aroused was not completely stirred by me. At this time, she could still resist it and forced me away. I touched the pain point on my mouth that she had bitten. I knew I couldn't do too much tonight, so I smiled and said, "Then... Then I'd better go back first, you go to bed earlier!" After that, I turned around and opened the door and left.
Just as I turned around, Hu Meixin's eyes were mixed with An Luo and disappointed expressions. When she saw me turning around and leaving, she suddenly said, "You... don't force me, I... I'll be yours sooner or later."
I felt aroused in my heart when I heard this. I didn't expect that she would finally say such words to me. But just a moment of saliva, I continued to push the door out and then brought it with me for her.
When I walked out of Hu Meixin's room, I was still recalling the moving scene before. I was about to walk back to the upper floor when I suddenly saw a door on the other side suddenly open, and a person came out of it.
I was shocked and looked at the man quickly, but I saw the man whispered in a light gauze shirt, with a very beautiful facial features on his face. Just looking at his appearance, who would be Li Jiru? When I saw Li Jiru, Li Jiru also saw me.
Li Jiru saw who I was, her eyes lit up at first, and then she seemed to be afraid of something, and then she quickly pulled the door up. Then she looked at me at a loss and called out: "Brother Zhu!"
I noticed Li Jiru's subtle movement, and my heart moved slightly, thinking about whether she was so anxious to close the door. Is it because I was afraid that Li Yueru inside saw me outside the door, so I took a step forward, grabbed her little hand, and said in a deep voice: "You follow me."
Li Jiru was half-pulled out of the cabin and came to the lanai. Then I did not let go of the hand holding her, looked at her, and said, "Ji Ru, there are some things I have to explain to you clearly no matter what."
Li Jiru seemed a little panicked at first, but at this time she had slowly settled down. After listening to my words, she seemed to have guessed what I was going to say, and her face turned red immediately.
"Ji Ru, when I was in trouble that day, it was you who told your father that he had sponsored me and recommended me to pass the imperial examination. It can be said that if I had not been for you, I would not have been able to recognize my grandfather in the palace examination. If I had not for you, I would not have been able to be the king of the emperor... Ji Ru, I, Zhu Changluo, will you always remember your kindness in my heart." I paused slightly and said, "Ji Ru, is it that at this time, you still don't know what I feel for you?"
Li Jiru listened quietly to my words, and her eyes showed a look of pleasure at first, but then a hint of gloom appeared on her face. After looking into the cabin very quickly, she said, "Brother Zhu...Brother Zhu, Yueru cousin is your good match, Ji Ru's heart will appreciate your affection." After that, Li Jiru turned around and was about to run into the cabin. Looking at that look, she didn't want to get along with me for a moment.
"Li Jiru, wait!" For some reason, I felt a little angry when I was in charge and couldn't help but shout at her.
Li Jiru paused, and stopped with his back to me. I walked slowly over, then turned to her, staring at her beautiful and charming face with my eyes tightly, and then said word by word: "You don't need to pay attention to Yueru and me. I just want you to know my feelings. If you really don't like me at all, then pretend I didn't say anything tonight." After that, I turned around and walked towards my room.
I don't know what I looked like when I said this, but when I turned around and left, I noticed a hint of mist appeared on Li Jiru's face, as if my words and my expression were deeply imprinted on her heart, making her feel so at a loss.
...
A few more days passed, because the ship was very slow and the fleet consumed a lot of food and water in daily life. When we arrived near Jiujiang, our entire fleet stopped, and the navy and ship workers went to the city to purchase goods one after another. The prefect of Jiujiang seemed to be a good person who was knowledgeable and tactful. When he heard that I, the favored King Rui, came to his territory, immediately came to my ship with great surprise, saying that the banquet had been set up in the famous Xunyang Tower, and asked "His Royal Highness" to enjoy the glory no matter what.
As the saying goes, it is hard to refuse the kindness. After his hard plea, I finally agreed to go to Xunyang Tower to answer the seat. At the same time, I also asked the name of the prefect, and the prefect reported it to me happily: "The surname is Zhang, whose name is Jieyang, whose name is Mingtang, is a Jinshi in the eighth year of Hongwu."
You should know that with my "Holy Respect", as long as I put his name slightly in front of the emperor's grandfather, the days when the prefect of Jieyang will be successful in the future will not be far away. Therefore, his flattery towards me along the way can be said to be like the water of the Yangtze River, which really allowed me to enjoy the wonderfulness of the superior.
From the dock passed the downtown city to Xunyang Tower, I rode horses all the way. Zhang Jieyang was originally a civil servant and didn't know much about horsemanship, but in order to please me, I forced myself to step on the back of the horse, but my face was blue all the way. As I walked to a corner of the downtown city, I suddenly noticed a spiritual sense approaching me, with murderous intent in it. The location where the spiritual sense came from was right behind me.
"Hmm? Not appropriate!" I burst into my heart and turned around and looked. Before my head could be turned completely, I saw a man in strong clothes holding a sharp sword in his hand, flying towards me from the eaves of the tall buildings beside the street. The sharp sword kept flashing with dazzling light, just like poisonous snakes that devoured people.
"He is a master!" Seeing the sword coming, cold sweat broke out on my back. His martial arts may be more skillful than me, his light body skills may be more agile than Lan Wenqi, and his attacks may be faster than Hu Meixin... He is really a master!
At this time, I had no time to amaze how clever the other party was. I was as quick as thunder and kicked Zhang Jieyang, who was so scared that his face looked like earth, to the ground, and then stepped on the stirrups violently. The whole person was spinning up like a kite was being pulled, barely dodging the sword of the visitor.
The man failed to hit the attack, and then pushed his sword up again, stabbing at me who was in the air again, waiting for my strength to fall and immediately put me to death. At this time, I had no room for dodging again, and the opponent's surprise attack made me fall into a passive situation. I was in the air, took a deep breath, and then gathered all my strength to penetrate my arms, thinking about fighting the opponent hard.
Just as my body fell and the man's sword also slashed, he and I were finally able to see each other face to face...
"It's you?" I exclaimed, and at the same time I saw shock in the other person's eyes.
It was impossible to take back a sword, but the other party took it back. At the same time, seeing this, I waved my hands quickly and barely hit the empty space beside the man with all my strength.
"Bang"
The sound of energy came out in a heavy air, and the man and I separated immediately. I looked at him and he looked at me. The two of them looked at each other, and they didn't know what to say at this time.
"Come on, catch assassins, catch assassins..." Zhang Jieyang got up from the ground and shouted in a very embarrassing manner. The yamen runners who were stunned by the side immediately wanted to surround the person opposite me.
"Wait, he is my friend!"
Indeed, he is my friend, a friend who has been together for one time, because he is the Feng Daotong, who is known as the number one killer in the world, and the Feng Daotong, who has been kind to him.
After hearing my loud shout, the yamen runners immediately stopped, flinched and looked at Feng Daotong with some surprise, and didn't know what kind of relationship we had.
I looked at the more and more people around me, thought for a moment, and said to Feng Daotong: "Brother Feng, this is not a place to talk. Let's find a place to sit down and talk about it!"
Feng Daotong is not a talkative person in my impression. His eyes were blinking, and light flashed from time to time, making me have no idea what he was thinking. After I greeted Zhang Jieyang, I continued to get on the horse and headed towards Xunyang Tower. Before leaving, I saw Feng Daotong thinking about it and followed him directly, but I still didn't say a word.
When I came to Xunyang Tower to sit down, I originally had to sit there several important officials on the ground in Jiujiang. However, because I had something to ask Feng Daotong, I had to "rudely" ask them, the old and young men to go to the side to start the meal, and empty the whole room for me and Feng Daotong.
"Why do you want to kill me?" I looked at him for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking this taciturn iron man.
Feng Daotong pondered for a while, and it was the first time he spoke to me: "Someone asked me to kill you!"
