Chapter 569 Emperor Yu is almost mad

"You are about to die, why are you still asking so many questions?"

"Shoot!"

The plainclothes leader gave an order, and countless strong bows and crossbows shot down from the second-floor post station. Jing Li's face suddenly changed, and he shouted: "Line up, protect the emperor!"

A group of plainclothes imperial guards rushed forward and surrounded Emperor Yu in the middle. Jing Li held a broadsword and waved it around to resist the arrows flying around.

"Your Majesty, please get on the carriage quickly!"

"Let's rush out first."

Emperor Yu nodded slightly, his figure swept, and he ran into the carriage nimbly. Seeing that Emperor Yu was about to leave, the assassins on the post station also jumped down from the building and took the initiative to kill.

"General, don't worry!"

"Your Highness is well prepared!"

The plainclothes Jinyiwei took out a flute from his arms and blew it violently. Suddenly, a team of soldiers in armor rushed into the post station. The leader was wearing heavy black armor and had a solemn look on his face.

"Entrapment camp, line up!"

A thousand troops in the trap camp lined up in front of Emperor Yu's carriage. Jing Li's face immediately condensed: "Entrapment camp!"

"Kill!"

The assassins also showed a condensed look when they saw the figures of the armored soldiers. However, the arrows were on the string and had to be shot. They had been dormant in Huainan for so long just for this time.

Now that they have been exposed, no matter what the result is, they can't escape the word death.

"Kill!"

Figures flew out one after another. Their target was very clear, which was the heavily guarded carriage of the trap camp.

"Don't know whether to live or die!"

"Kill!"

Gao Shun raised the broadsword in his hand, and the trap camp behind him also began to attack. However, this was not a battlefield charge after all. This group of assassins were all highly skilled in martial arts, but they did not understand the method of battle formation. Relying on their superb fighting skills, they moved freely among the formations of the trap camp.

"Keng!"

"Dangdangdang..."

The sound of swords and knives rang out. Emperor Yu looked through the window with a frown. He had just left Lingzhou, so why were there so many assassins lying in ambush here, and even seized an official post station.

So, his whereabouts were leaked?

"Target, Emperor Yu, don't fight, kill Emperor Yu!"

"Kill!"

The leading assassin had a fierce look in his eyes. He took out a jade bottle from his arms, opened the cork, and threw it directly at the carriage.

"Swoosh!"

Poisonous bees flew out of the jade bottle. Gao Shun's face changed slightly, and he quickly looked at Jing Li on the side: "Commander-in-chief, be careful of the poisonous bees."

Jing Li had noticed it long ago without Gao Shun's reminder. He flipped and stood directly on the shaft of the carriage. The long sword in his hand burst into a sharp sword light, and cut down the flying poisonous bees.

"Buzz!"

There were at least dozens of poisonous bees in the jade bottle. They not only flew towards the carriage, but also rushed into the formation of the soldiers of the Xianzhen Camp. Fortunately, the Xianzhen Camp was all wearing heavy armor, with only their pupils exposed.

"Ah!"

A soldier of the Xianzhen Camp was accidentally stung by a poisonous bee on his right hand. In an instant, it began to swell and turn black, and then he collapsed to the ground, paralyzed all over. Within ten breaths, he was no longer able to make any sound.

"Be careful of this poisonous bee!"

"Damn it!"

Gao Shun was furious, looking at the assassins in front of him with a cold face, and said coldly: "Strangle them, and be sure to leave a few alive."

"Yes!"

The soldiers of the Xianzhen Camp seemed to be aroused by anger. The flying poisonous bees in the air were quickly cut down to the ground. Although the plainclothes assassins in front of them were highly skilled in martial arts, they were not protected by armor after all. In front of the fully armed Xianzhen Camp, two fists could not beat four hands.

"Retreat!"

The plainclothes officer in the lead showed a strong unwillingness. After giving the order, more than ten plainclothes officers flew away. Jing Li rushed into the carriage to check on Emperor Yu's condition.

"Your Majesty?"

"I'm fine."

Emperor Yu looked calm, looking at the corpses outside, with a hint of coldness in his eyes: "Check their identities!"

"Yes!"

"Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Yong has a letter for me to pass on to you."

"Hmm?"

Emperor Yu frowned slightly, took the letter and began to read it. After just a few glances, his chest heaved and he cursed: "Rebellious son, this rebellious son!"

"Why did I give birth to such an unfaithful and unfilial dog?"

"Using me as bait?"

"He is so brave, Jingli, go back to Lingzhou City and kill that rebellious son!"

Seeing the furious look on Emperor Yu's face, Jingli also shrank his head, not understanding what happened. Instead, Concubine Xian beside him said calmly: "Fan'er did go too far this time, but if we can print out all the spies in the dark, we can wipe them out in one fell swoop."

"Your Majesty, it's not a loss to take a few risks."

"Humph!"

Emperor Yu was snorting with anger, and only when he saw Ning Fan repeatedly assured his safety in the letter did he calm down a little.

"That means I will encounter countless attacks along the way?"

"That's right!"

"What son of this beast can do such a thing?"

"No, I have to vent my anger!"

"Jing Li, go back to Lingzhou!"

Jing Li showed a helpless look on his face, and Concubine Xian spoke again, calmly: "Your Majesty, what can you do even if you go back?"

"It's nothing more than a good beating."

"Besides, Fan'er's starting point is good."

Emperor Yu suddenly lost his words. You used my life to lure the spy into the trap, and you actually made sense. I am convinced.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

The plainclothes guard spoke at the right time, bowed slightly and said: "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness Prince Yong has something else for me to tell you."

"His Royal Highness Prince Yong said that he has sent countless experts to accompany you secretly along the way, so you don't have to worry about your safety."

"In order to compensate you, His Royal Highness Prince Yong also specially transferred 300,000 stones of grain and grass to express his apology."

"His Royal Highness also said that if Your Majesty is unwilling to return to Lingzhou, he will arrange a safe route for you."

Hearing the words of the guard, Emperor Yu's anger subsided, but his face was still not good, and he waved his hand gently: "Go back and tell him that this account is mine. I'll make a note of it for him."

"When we get back to the capital, I won't let him off."

"Yes!"

The Jinyiwei bowed respectfully and rode back directly. The Xianzhen Camp also searched out the bodies of all the officials from the official post station. There was a glimmer of anger in Emperor Yu's eyes: "Find out the identities of these people, and I will settle accounts with them."

"Yes!"

"Your Majesty, shall we continue our journey?"

"Keep on the road."

"Yes!"

Emperor Yu and his entourage moved forward slowly again. Although they didn't know what the future held, how could he, the emperor, stop because of some villains?

A group of imperial guards were watching.

"Rebellious son!"

"This unfilial son makes me angry."

"No, prepare the pen and ink, I want to write a letter!"

"I'm so angry!"
