Who is spreading rumors that my filial piety towards them has changed?

"Why didn't you absorb his extreme yin energy just now? You should have been able to save him, right?"

"There's no saving him. This extremely Yin energy erupted from his heart and brain simultaneously. The moment it erupted, he was beyond saving. Even if I absorbed it, I would only leave behind a mutilated corpse."

If we had noticed this earlier and successfully brought him back to the Chu Prince's residence for questioning, we might have avoided a lot of trouble and directly found out who he was.

Chu Mingkong wanted to harm him.

Pitiful,

helpless,

They only want to mate.

A cute little kitten!

"I was careless." Chu Mingkong finally spoke after a long pause, looking up at the night sky: "I'm so annoyed."

"It's alright, there are other opportunities to capture these assassins," Zuo Qiuchi comforted him.

"Yes, now that this person is dead, the forces in the capital who wanted to harm me will only become more cautious, and there will be little chance of catching them."

First, they used Choi Yong to provoke me into fighting Choi Gap-jin, and then overnight I became a murderer condemned by the entire capital.

His reappearance at the Cui residence now is most likely a conspiracy he's plotting with Cui Rong.

I'm fed up with this passive situation, having to wait for the other side to make a move. I can't calm my anger; it's so frustrating!

Zuo Qiuchi also looked up, gazing at the same sky as him, and said in a deep voice:

"I understand. I also dislike the frustration and annoyance of being controlled by others, so how about we go to the brothel for some fun?"

"Come on, it's my treat, apprentice."

Chu Mingkong immediately agreed, and his pig trotters naturally reached down to support his master's slender waist... and then down to his ample breasts.

His fingers couldn't help but want to squeeze hard; the feeling of his fingers sinking deep into the soft flesh of her buttocks must be wonderful!

But he held back.

Because Zuo Qiuchi's Greatsword of Annihilation was pressed against his "lifeline".

"Don't say that, Master. Am I that kind of person?"

"You are!" Zuo Qiuchi knew this bastard disciple all too well.

"I really didn't." Chu Mingkong looked heartbroken. "When you weren't here last time, I secretly went to Yunhai Taoist Temple and pinched Master Nongyu's butt. Now I only want to acknowledge her as my master. I don't care to pinch yours anymore. The feel of it... tsk tsk tsk!"

"How dare you cheat on me!" Zuo Qiuchi roared in fury. "Tonight I'll sleep with both of your sisters-in-law."

"Wishful thinking! I'll sleep with you tonight, and I'll keep an eye on you. I'll make sure my sisters-in-law don't fall victim to your evil deeds!" Chu Mingkong glared at her righteously: "I'm determined to be your protector!"

—Yay! I'll be sleeping with Zuo Qiuchi and my two sisters-in-law tonight!

Zuo Qiuchi was ready to go to his mansion immediately and humiliate his sisters-in-law in front of them, but he sensed a presence approaching.

"Something's up."

"I sensed it too. Something's definitely up, and the killing intent is very strong!"

The master and apprentice stopped joking and their playful expressions vanished. They exchanged a glance, nodded, and both understood each other perfectly from their eyes.

They found a good spot to sit down and took out a wine jug, a wine vessel, and two melons.

Then, the two raised their wine glasses and clinked them together!

when--

"Quiet down, let's eat!"

----------

"Li Ming is in trouble! Our contact with him suddenly stopped, his whereabouts must have been discovered long ago!"

"But the curse left on him will activate the Yin Core planted in his body, so the matter will not be exposed."

No, you're wrong!

The frequent firework alarms at the Cui residence tonight indicate that Li Ming's whereabouts have already been discovered, and it is possible that...

—His conspiracy with Choi Yong had long been known to Choi Gap-jin.

“But we instructed Li Ming not to mention anything about the master. He’s dead now, so it’s not a big problem. Let Cui Jiazhen make wild guesses. We’ll just watch him make a fool of himself.”

No, you're wrong again!

Li Ming's stupidity in triggering two traps in a row suggests he might even be foolish enough to reveal his master's information!

Silence fell in the cramped, dark room.

“In an even worse scenario, Cui Rong might have been influenced by his father’s cuckoldry to the point of obedience, and would voluntarily report all the information Li Ming had given him to Cui Jiazhen!”

"You mean, Cui Jiazhen most likely already knows about the master's conspiracy, and might even be using this information to threaten the master?!"

“That’s right! Don’t we often see this when interrogating hostages? As we scold them, they stop resisting and become obedient ‘dogs’ instead. That Choi Yong is probably like that. He’s completely obedient to his father, Choi Gap-jin. I don’t believe anyone would allow their father to covet their wife. That doesn’t make sense!”

There was another silence, but this time it didn't last long.

As assassins, they always consider the fastest possible outcome for their masters, ensuring that their masters do not bear even the slightest risk.

They didn't have much time to hesitate.

The wavering decision quickly reached a consensus among the group.

"Kill Cui Jiazhen, then leave traces of extreme Yin power at the scene to frame Chu Mingkong! And it has to be quick, before the Cui family patriarch wakes up from his seclusion!"

There is no need to discuss further details of the operation.

They only need to know the target and the mission objective to know what to do; all assassination cooperation and combat division of labor have long been instinctive in their minds.

------------

That night.

The Cui family's eastern residence was attacked by a powerful group of assassins, but the aftershocks of the battle were suppressed by an expensive protective barrier.

Outsiders only know that the Cui family's East Mansion is very lively tonight.

Has the Cui family patriarch set his sights on another girl? Did he just decide on a whim to set off fireworks to win a smile from her?

But only those in the East Mansion knew that

In this context,

The danger is palpable!

Inside Tianxiang Tower, Cui Jiazhen confronted the mysterious assassins.

In the Tianxiang Courtyard, Chu Mingkong and Zuo Qiuchi stared intently at Tianxiang Tower with serious expressions.

"Master, this slice of melon is quite sweet. Would you like to try it? Let's switch."

"Okay, let's take turns eating."

"Cheers!" "Cheers!"

Chu Mingkong suddenly asked, "What's going on? How did the Cui family patriarch suddenly get attacked by several mysterious assassins?"

Zuo Qiuchi was baffled: "Why are you asking me? How would I know? But this is really a big deal. The barrier stone that the assassins smashed at Tianxiang Tower is quite remarkable. The cost is enough for me to seduce the fairies of major sects for several years."

When the word "fairy" was mentioned, Zuo Qiuchi sighed, "It's so great to drink without a woman to hold and cheer me up!"

"You brat, hurry up and bring your second sister-in-law over. The Cui residence is too dangerous tonight. I'll protect her." Zuo Qiuchi gently kicked him under the table.

"What about the You sisters? Should we protect them too?"

"Twin sisters? That's good. I'll protect them then. You go protect your sister-in-law and bring her over quickly."

Chapter Thirty-Four: He committed suicide; it has nothing to do with me.

Zhong Feihuang is in the West Mansion, far away from the East Mansion, so she's very safe. Bringing her here would put her in danger.

Chu Mingkong would never do such a thing.

then,

He returned to his palace and brought back his sister-in-law, Keqing, and also rescued You Erniang, who had fled from the disaster.

But when she returned to the spot where she and Zuo Qiuchi had been eating melons under the moon, she was no longer there.

"Damn it, he sent me away and secretly went to hug the Daoist nun." Chu Mingkong sighed.

He made a mental note of this mistake and vowed never to fall for it again.

Feng Keqing looked bewildered. She was only wearing a bodice and underpants, her fair and delicate skin exposed to the night wind. The areas that could be touched were warm and smooth. If one were to be polite and not touch her skin, one could only touch the area of ​​her bodice or underpants.

She was sleeping in bed when Chu Mingkong suddenly pulled her out of bed, and she instinctively covered her body.

He wanted to shout that there was a flower thief, but when he saw that it was Chu Mingkong, he stopped the urge to cry for help. His mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts, and his eyes darted around.

"What... what's going on...?" she asked.

As You Erniang was running, her vision suddenly spun around, and then Chu Mingkong "kidnapped" her into his arms.

At this moment, with Feng Keqing on either side of her in her arms, You Erniang's mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts.

Could it be that the young prince... intends to take her for himself in this courtyard, and even drag Grandma Keqing along?

"A major incident has occurred in the East Mansion tonight. Someone has attacked Cui Jiazhen, and many assassins have arrived. I will protect you for now," Chu Mingkong briefly explained the situation in Tianxiang Tower.

Feng Keqing was still confused. Her father-in-law's attack was indeed a serious matter, and Chu Mingkong's offer to protect her was very kind, but...

"I was sleeping in Mingkong's mansion... why did you bring me back to the dangerous East Mansion...?"

You Erniang also said, "Young Prince, I was just about to escape through the gate and hide in the West Mansion. Why did you bring me back to this dangerous place?"

"..."

Chu Mingkong remained silent, then took out two cloaks and draped them over their shoulders.

When Chu Mingkong hugged them just now, he used two dust-free talismans on them despite the pain, so there was no need to worry about them being exposed.

Even if Chu Mingkong were to carry his sister-in-law Keqing (in stealth mode) to Cui Rong right now, and fiercely pounce on her, his eyes gleaming with malice...

Spank her bottom.
