The Wanli Emperor of the Ming Dynasty was extremely rebellious

Chapter 92: Dark Night Assassination
As night falls, there are not many lights in the small riverside town of Zhongzhou.

The weather is a bit cold now, and few people go out late at night.

The night in the mountain city was silent, but Wanli lay in bed tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

He really didn't expect that several famous generals of the Qin family in Zhongzhou were still young.

Take him to the capital right now, okay?

The problem is, if we don’t bring him to the capital this time, he might have to come again next time.

He is not idle. It is not easy to make a trip to Zhongzhou, and the time wasted is not a small amount.

The key is that he also has to review memorials and handle state affairs.

By now, the memorials received by Duke Chengguo Zhu Yingzhen must have piled up like a mountain.

He didn't know how much trouble it would take for him to come all the way here.

If he doesn't take the loyal ministers and generals of the Qin family with him this time, he doesn't know when they will be free to come next time.

The problem is that the loyal ministers and generals of the Qin family have not grown up yet.

How to do it?

How am I going to tell them tomorrow?

He was just thinking about it when suddenly several loud shouts were heard outside.

"who?"

"There are assassins!"

"Quick, stop him!"

Li Xuancheng and Shan Sinan suddenly opened the door and window and came to his bed.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of weapons clashing and faint groans were heard outside.

Wanli got up and looked out the window, his face full of solemnity.

Several of the guards he brought with him were knocked down from the wall like dumplings!

These assassins are so powerful!
"Quick, light the torches, everyone come over and protect the main house."

Zhang Zhen also got up. He was tying his belt and shouting nervously outside the window.

With a "whoosh" sound, the tinderboxes lit up one after another, and the torches they brought were quickly ignited, and the whole yard suddenly became bright.

At this moment, a black figure leaped down from the wall like a ghost and landed silently on the open space in the courtyard.

This guy is so tall, probably over 1.8 meters, and he is holding two shining long swords in his hands, which are probably more than four feet long.

However, this guy seemed to have come here alone.

In the middle of the yard stood a night walker dressed in black, with a black cloth wrapped around his head and a black scarf covering his face. No more figures jumped down from the wall, and there was no more movement.

Can one person knock down several expert guards from the wall?

This man's skills are extremely high, and the guards selected from the Jinyiwei and the Imperial Guards are definitely no match for him.

"Brother Shan, protect Young Master Huang!"

Li Xuancheng gave a hurried instruction, then drew his sword, jumped out of the window, and rushed forward to meet him.

Seeing this, Wanli quickly got up, put on his coat, and went to the window.

The two of them started fighting without saying a word, and they were evenly matched.

Master.

He is indeed a master!

In the darkness of the night, all I could see were the flashes of swords and the sparks of clashing swords; I couldn't even make out the figures!
He had seen Li Xuancheng and Shan Sinan fighting against each other. The two were indeed top masters in the world. At least he had never seen anyone with better skills than them. None of the famous generals who participated in the martial arts examinations were better than them.

This assassin can actually fight on equal terms with his uncle!
When Wanli saw this, he couldn't help but sweat.

He is the only uncle that he is closest to, nothing must happen to him!
Seeing this, Shan Sinan couldn't help but grasp the hilt of the sword.

"what!"

With a cry of surprise, the two figures suddenly separated.

It seemed that the one who exclaimed was not Li Xuancheng, but the voice was much sharper than Li Xuancheng's.

However, the injured one seemed to be Li Xuancheng, as his clothes on his chest were obviously torn.

He touched the two cracks on his chest and said solemnly, "Girl, I see that you don't seem to want to hurt anyone. What do you want to do?"

girl?

When Wanli looked at the man in black again, his eyes almost popped out.

The assassin's turban had been swept away by his uncle, and his beautiful black hair fell down, making him look like a real woman.

The question is, isn’t this woman too tall?
His uncle is not as tall as this woman, and there are not many guards who are taller than this woman.

This woman is really more than 1.8 meters tall!

When Wanli looked down again, he couldn't help but marvel inwardly, what long legs!
And the chest must have been wrapped with cloth several times, like a board stuffed in it.

The woman didn't answer but asked instead: "Who are you?" What a clear voice. She looked young, and her voice had an obvious Sichuan accent. It sounded soft and sticky, and quite pleasant.

What do such long legs look like?

Upon hearing this, Wanli's face was filled with curiosity.

Li Xuancheng looked over with a troubled expression.

People asked them who they were.

How do you say this?

Wanli thought for a moment, then whispered, "Uncle, tell her your identity quietly."

This woman doesn't seem to be an assassin. The few guards who just fell from the wall had already climbed up from the ground and were not seriously injured. If she was an assassin, she would not be so polite and would have killed those who could be killed long ago.

Hearing this, Li Xuancheng said helplessly in a low voice: "I am Li Xuancheng, the Secretary of the Imperial Household Department, the Seal of the Imperial Horse Department, and the Governor of the East Factory."

"Ha ha ha ha."

The woman couldn't help but giggle and said, "You are obviously a master from the Quanzhen Sect's Ten Directions Monastery, yet you are trying to scare me with all these scary titles."

It was obvious that she didn't believe it.

Because the Imperial Household Department is in charge of writing, the Imperial Horse Administration is in charge of seals, and the Eastern Depot is in charge, each of them is a big shot, and it is unlikely that the three titles will be combined on one person.

What's more, these are official positions that only eunuchs can hold.

Li Xuancheng was at a loss, as no one believed him when he told the truth.

He could only look at Wanli again.

Wanli simply asked: "Who are you?"

The woman glanced at him through the heavy guards and unexpectedly replied, "Qin Lan, the Green Ox of Fengdu, Emei."

Fengdu Green Ox?

What does this mean?
Wanli was embarrassed. Qin Lan obviously thought they were from the underworld, and he was not familiar with these underworld terms.

He could only look at Shan Sinan with confusion.

Shan Sinan quickly explained, "There are five main schools of brocade, namely Fengdu Qingniu, Tongjiang Tiefo, Kaixian Huangling, Fuling Dianyi, and Guanxian Qingcheng. Fengdu Qingniu Mountain should be less than a hundred miles away from here. She shouldn't be lying."

Oh, it turns out to be a school of eyebrow painting.

Wanli nodded slightly, then asked, "Your surname is Qin, who is Qin Kui to you?"

Qin Lan did not answer again and asked, "Why are you sneaking around to find out about my eldest brother's family affairs?"

Sunflower is a flower, and orchid is also a flower. It turns out that she is Qin Kui’s sister.

Am I being sneaky?
That guy Luo Sigong is the one doing something sneaky, okay?

Wanli couldn't help but look at Luo Sigong who had just arrived.

Seeing this, Luo Sigong wiped his face in embarrassment and didn't know what to say.

This guy likes to be sneaky in everything he does.

Wanli thought about it, then said: "Actually, I want to make friends with your elder brother."

Why do these guys keep telling lies?

Qin Lan asked suspiciously, "Why are you making friends with my elder brother at such a young age? Did you fail the exam to become a scholar, so you came to my elder brother for help?

I'm telling you, forget it. My brother would never help you with something like this."

I want to take the exam to become a scholar?
Just kidding.

It only takes a word for me to let your elder brother enter the Imperial College.

Wanli said helplessly, "Miss, I really want to make friends with your elder brother. I don't want to take the exam for the scholar. Look at all the guards I have. Do I need to take the exam for the scholar?"

This is true.

This kid has so many guards that even a scholar, a juren, or even an ordinary jinshi can't afford to support them.

It seems that this kid is from a prominent family.

Qin Lan thought for a moment and then asked, "Who are you?"

Wanli looked around, then cupped his hands into a trumpet shape and whispered to her, "I am the current emperor. Do you believe it?"

I believe you.

You guys are just talking nonsense and lying.

Qin Lan looked at the densely packed guards around her, then looked at Shan Sinan, who was obviously very skilled beside Wanli, and said angrily, "Are you going to tell the truth or not? If you don't, I'm going to ask my senior brothers and sisters for help.

Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you hired a few experts. The person next to you was right. Qingniu Mountain is only a few dozen miles away from here. It will only take me an hour or so to find someone to help you."

This misunderstanding seems to be a bit too big.

What is Luo Sigong doing in secret?
When Wanli heard this, he was embarrassed.
