Chapter 36 The Uninvited Guest

Xue Xu didn't dare to disobey his mother, so he backed out as promised, and then walked to a deserted place, then took out the note in his hand, opened it, and saw that there were only a few numbers, "Garden at the back of the Princess Mansion".

Xue Xu's heart tightened, and he looked at the location on the note. He entered the flower hall just now, but someone stuffed a note into his hand.

Xue Xu didn't dare to delay, if he messed up his mother's banquet for guests today, he would definitely take off his skin.

He hurried to the back garden of the Princess Mansion, but there was no one there. He stood in the back garden and waited for a while, then his ears moved, and he was keenly aware of the wind, and then he dodged to dodge the darts that pierced the air. The dart missed him, and flew straight into the tree trunk behind him. The strong force shook off the sparse leaves on the tree, and Xue Xu fell all over.

"Who is it!" Xue Xu shouted in a low voice towards an open space, drew out the saber from his waist and slashed at it.

"Hmph! It's really lucky! Otherwise, I'm afraid there will be one more corpse in the Princess's Mansion today!" A hoarse and cold voice sounded out of thin air, and a mysterious man in a black cloak appeared at the place where Xue Xu was originally standing.

As soon as Xue Xu turned his head, he looked at the man, was shocked, and blurted out: "Why are you here!"

This person was the other person who was conspired with Xue Xu last time, but was smashed by Su Yi.

Since offending the county lord Zhenming, Xue Xu and his son have never dared to act rashly because of the eldest princess' warning. The Han family negotiated too much.

However, Xue Xu and his son wanted to give up, but the Han family was not willing to give up easily. Even though the eldest princess warned first, Han Lianchen's eyes and ears still took advantage of today's flower viewing feast, and got mixed up.

"Why can't I come? Mr. Xue, don't forget that we have to make a deal! If you and your father hadn't suddenly quit, our plan to assassinate King Yue wouldn't have failed! I'm here to ask you for an explanation!" Then Only the lower half of the face was exposed, and the upper half of the face was completely shrouded in darkness. His voice was soft and cold, which made people shiver for no reason.

Xue Xu knew that Han Lianchen had come to settle accounts. He had known that the Han family in Longchuan was not a cheap lamp, and joining hands with Han Lianchen was tantamount to seeking skin from a tiger.

Now that Han Lianchen's subordinates came to question him, Xue Xu didn't dare to be careless, but said: "The original plan was that I was selected into the Shenwu Army, but I was cut off by Fu Zhuo. The plan has changed, and the assassination will fail. Inevitably."

"It's inevitable? Humph! How dare you say it!" The man in black snorted coldly, and with a flick of his sleeves, a gust of wind swept towards Xue Xu.

"The Patriarch has planned for many years, but this time the assassination failed, and he frightened the snake. If he wants to deal with the King of Yue in the future, it will be even more difficult! Today I must take the lives of you and your father, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the Patriarch!" Before the words finished, the man He rushed towards Xue Xu quickly, a knife in his hand was blocked by Xue Xu, but he flipped his hand, and a curved knife glowing with blood appeared in his hand, stabbing towards Xue Xu's neck——

Xue Xu was dazzled by the silver scimitar, startled in his heart, quickly let go of the man in black's grip, tapped his toes, and took more than ten steps backward.

The man in black chased after him, took out a few small darts from nowhere and flew them towards him, Xue Xu hurriedly swung his body to dodge again, the darts landed in the flower bed, and some of them directly penetrated the middle of the flower bed The flower buds produced, the remaining flowers and fallen leaves are scattered on the soil.

Xue Xu knew that the other party was superior, and he was not his opponent. Han Lianchen did everything by any means, and he was afraid that he would really fall here today, so he changed his mind and hurriedly raised his voice: "Han Lianchen is so arrogant. I'm afraid my mother won't let the Han family go!"

Han Lianchen acted arrogantly without any scruples. The eldest princess had long wanted to eradicate the Han family in Longchuan, but she had been unable to find a reason. Now if Xue Xu really killed him, it would not only arouse the eldest princess' anger, but the eldest princess would even In order to rectify the Han family from the beginning.

Thinking of this, the man in black stopped attacking, and the mission failed. He must be blamed when he returns to the Han family, so he has been staying in the imperial capital, trying to do something to save the situation.

But if he really killed Xue Xu now and caused trouble for Han Lianchen, then there was really no way out.

After Xue Xu said this, he finally calmed down and figured out the stakes. The man in black stopped attacking Xue Xu, lightly tapped his toes, and disappeared in front of Xue Xu in a few dodges.

Xue Xu breathed a sigh of relief when the danger was over. Holding his beating heart, he sat down panting.

……

Being able to attend the banquet held by the eldest princess is either rich or expensive. The guests were placed in the front yard, gathered together, chatting and laughing, and the most talked about was this extremely rare ice flower.

When the guests had almost arrived, there was another announcement at the door——

"The fifth concubine arrives—"

As soon as this remark came out, the guests immediately became noisy and went out to salute the fifth prince and concubine one after another.

The five princes and concubines are very serious now, and what they have in their stomachs is the real emperor's grandson. This is the first emperor's grandson of the current emperor. Can the emperor not take it seriously?
If a prince pops out, it will be a big deal. At that time, the fifth prince will have one more bargaining chip to succeed to the throne.

The guests had different thoughts, but they all came out to welcome the fifth prince and concubine, and said pleasant words, which made the fifth prince and concubine laugh from ear to ear, and entered the main room like a star.

It’s just that everyone is worried about the fifth prince’s concubine’s pregnancy and don’t dare to get too close. If anything happens to the fifth prince’s concubine, it will be a serious crime against the nine clans!
The fifth prince and concubine only went out of the palace to participate in a flower viewing banquet, but she was accompanied by four nuns, eight maids of honor, and more than a dozen guards standing by, all dressed up and on standby, keeping the five prince and concubine's side tightly guarded. ventilation.

Seeing that today's protagonist finally arrived, Jin Yuanjun did not go to the side of the fifth prince concubine like others, but stood aside, looking at the fifth prince concubine who knew nothing about this Hongmen banquet, the corner of her mouth slowly curled up. With a treacherous smile, it's good to be here, if the protagonist doesn't come, then the scene won't be able to continue.

Although the black snake venom she prepared is weak, it may harm the fetus. However, Mr. Jin Yuan is not worried about what will happen to the fetus in the womb of the fifth princess. If she sincerely wants to keep the child in the womb of the prince, she can do it in advance. She told her, but she didn't. This was the ladder that the eldest princess handed her over. If she didn't seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, she would be a fool.

She just needs to let the fifth prince know that she saved the fifth prince concubine and the child in her belly. As for whether the child in the womb is sick or listless, that is not in her scope of consideration. To put it bluntly, this child is her As for the springboard to climb, I have to say that in terms of being ruthless and merciless, Mr. Jin Yuan knows nothing by himself.
