Chapter thirty-seven embrace beauty
The Taoist priest's move was both urgent and ruthless!
Pei Min's thoughts were all about Li Chiying, but he didn't expect the other party to attack him.
When he noticed it, it was too late to dodge.
Just as the dagger came, Pei Min gently tiptoed and moved his body slightly back!
The Taoist priest was determined to get a stab, but he couldn't even stab it.
When he looked down, he found that his dagger actually stabbed Pei Min on the long sword hanging around his waist. This reflected this calm judgment...
The Taoist priest couldn't help but tremble.
Although Pei Min avoided this attack with extraordinary reactions, the power from the Taoist dagger still shifted his body to the left by two steps. If an ordinary person was attacked like this, it would be difficult to barely stabilize his body. However, Pei Min had been practicing dancing since childhood, and his body flexibility was better than the woman. Before he could stand still, his sword was unsheathed, twisted his body and swung his sword and stabbed him at the Taoist priest.
The Taoist priest was shocked when he saw Pei Min's sword slashing across the lightning, but the sword he stabbed gave him an unstoppable feeling. This martial arts practitioner emphasizes the unity of body and mind. Pei Min's lower plate is unstable, and it is incredible that he still stabbed such a sharp sword move.
The Taoist priest remembered his success in defeating various masters in Guanzhong, and knew that Pei Min was indeed worthy of his reputation. In this case, the sword he stabbed out by the opponent was difficult to resist, and the head-on confrontation was definitely not his enemy of three or two moves. He was an assassin, and he failed to hit one blow, and he was unwilling to entangle and retreated and fled.
"Where to go!"
Pei Min stabilized her body and was about to pursue her.
The Taoist priest turned and flew at Li Chiying with his hand.
Pei Min saw that the dagger was quick and fast, and it was not difficult to shoot down the flying dagger with his sword technique, but his pursuit was blocked, and the Taoist priest would definitely run out of Yuzhen Temple and disappear without a trace. But if he did not save him, wouldn't Li Chiying's life be hung on a thread?
In the flash of lightning, Pei Min made a decision and threw the Qin Emperor sword in his hand towards the Taoist priest. He retreated quickly, pulled Li Chiying in his arms, avoiding the shooting of the dagger.
When the Taoist priest heard the strong wind coming from behind, he hurriedly hurriedly avoided sideways.
The Qin Emperor's sword brought a piece of blood and rubbed it over the Taoist priest's right arm.
The Taoist priest's sudden assassination and Pei Min's reaction fought back, but in just a few moments.
Ordinary people didn't even react.
The Taoist priest rushed into the crowd and pushed the Taoist priests who were putting out the fire to chaos and escaped from Yuzhen Temple.
Pei Min let go of Li Chiying, and Qinhuang Sword didn't care about picking up the sword, and wanted to chase. Taoist priests and the people were in chaos, blocking his way and delaying a little time. When he arrived at the door of Yuzhen Temple, the assassin was gone. At night, he didn't know where to chase him. Thinking that the fire was important, he was worried that he would lure the tiger away from the mountain, so he turned around and returned to the temple.
Li Chiying was still in amazement, and this series of shocking changes were just around her. This was the first time she had encountered such a thrilling thing when she grew up. She was a little excited in panic. She patted her unformed chest and said to herself: "Fortunately, she would have to accompany the Taoist ancestors." Thinking that she was so old, it was the first time she had such a close contact with a man of the opposite sex, and her pretty face couldn't help but feel a little red.
Pei Min picked up the Qin Emperor Sword on the ground, returned to Li Chiying, and bowed, "The situation is critical, princess, don't blame me!"
"It's okay, it's okay, the Chief Secretary is also trying to save me..." Speaking of this, Li Chiying raised his eyebrows and said angrily: "Who is so bold and dares to attack me, the Chief Secretary!"
Pei Min shook his head inexplicably and glanced at the turbulent fire. The assassination at night further confirmed his thoughts.
This fire was definitely intentionally indulged by someone, with the purpose of creating chaos. What is the purpose?
Is it him?
Or is it Princess Yuzhen Li Chiying?
The Taoist priest first attacked him, and it is possible that he knew his identity. In that case, only by killing him can he attack Li Chiying... Otherwise, with his martial arts, no one could do it.
However, Li Chiying is still a little girl now, and people and animals are harmless.
If you don’t have a strong purpose to kill a person with such a noble status, who would have taken action?
Thinking of this, Pei Min was 80% sure that the other party's target was him: the killer deliberately burned Yu Zhenguan and forced him to appear in the evening.
Pei's mansion is next to Yuzhen Temple. Yuzhen Temple caught fire. As a minister in the court, he sat down and watched the emperor's sister in danger. If he did not show up, he would not be criticized. As long as he appeared, facing the chaotic firefighting scene, the killer lurked in the firefighting crowd and secretly looked for an opportunity to assassinate.
This assassination plan is truly a masterpiece.
Pei Min never expected that the other party burned Yuzhen Temple for him. The layout was really big and very exquisite. If he hadn't noticed a little strange in advance, and hadn't directly thrown into the firefighting and mingled with the firefighting team members, but was worried about Li Chiying's safety, he might have suffered a lot at this moment. Even if he was prepared, it would be a big deal!
Pei Min walked towards the dagger shot on the wall and pulled it down gently. Under the reflection of the fire, a layer of shining solid was obviously touched on the shining dagger, with gray-black, and smelled it on his nose, with a faint fishy smell.
Li Chiying also walked up curiously and stared at him with big eyes.
Pei Min said: "The dagger is poisoned, and the opponent wants to kill someone."
Li Chiying said angrily: "Bastard, I want to tell the emperor brother that he would dismantle the assassin from eight pieces and divide the five horses into pieces."
Pei Min smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, princess, I'm here, no one will hurt you at all!"
Li Chiying's previous calm sword appeared in Pei Min's mind and smiled and said, "I believe in you." She glanced at the more vigorous the fire, and she was less afraid of it.
Fuxingfang is located in Anfu Gate, only separated by Yeting Palace, very close to Tai Chi Palace.
The incident of a fire in Yuzhen Temple soon reached Li Longji's ears.
Li Longji sent troops to put out the fire, and specially asked Gao Lishi to take Li Chiying back to the palace.
Compared with Wuhou, Fangding and Jiaguan, the army is obviously more efficient. Although the fire cannot be extinguished, it limits the spread of the fire.
The fire burns too strongly, and it is difficult to extinguish the fire-fighting water dragons of this era alone. They can only limit their spread. They can no longer burn and die on their own.
When Pei Min saw the army coming, he didn't join in the fun. He injured the assassin just now and planned to see what traces were around. However, the sky was too dark and there were many people coming and going, so he had no way to find it. After walking around, he had to give up.
"Pei Zhongcheng!"
Pei Min returned to Yuzhen Temple, and the sharp-eyed Gao Lishi saw his figure first and shouted loudly.
"Eunuch Gao!" Pei Min went up to say hello.
Gao Lishi said: "Where is Zhongcheng going? Your Majesty asked Zhongcheng to enter the palace to ask!"
Pei Min said: "I want to find the thief, but I just found nothing. When I change my clothes, my face will be indecent."
Galis pulled him and said, "It's okay, Your Majesty is in a hurry to summon him, and he will not blame him."
Pei Min knew that no one in the world knew Li Longji better than Gao Lishi, so he followed him.
After arriving at the side hall of Tai Chi Palace, Pei Min heard Li Longji scolding someone from a distance.
Under Gao Lishi's pass, Pei Min walked into the hall and saw a man kneeling on the ground with fear at a glance. He turned out to be an old acquaintance, which was Fan Yu, the chief of Yongzhou who sold his face not long ago.
It seems that the chief of Yongzhou was responsible for the public security of Chang'an, which was "the principle of discipline and public affairs, and the magistrate of the magistrate". The Yuzhen Temple caught fire and the assassination of the princess in the court was not a small matter, it was enough for Fan Yu to eat a pot.
Li Longji was sitting on the desk, and Princess Yuzhen stood beside her, looking at Pei Min who was walking in, her face was a bit lustful, and she thought she would complain to Li Longji a lot.
"My minister Pei Min pays homage to Your Majesty!"
Pei Min bowed and bowed.
Li Longji said, "Jingyuan doesn't have to be too polite. I want to thank you. If you hadn't saved Yuzhen, I... don't know how to face the emperor!" Li Longji attached great importance to the friendship between brothers and sisters, and said here, and said to Fan Yu angrily: "It's a fire and an assassination again. I really don't know that the public security at the foot of this emperor is so unbearable."
Pei Min thought of Fan Yu's help and said, "Your Majesty, I feel that this matter cannot be completely blamed by Mr. Fan. The fire and the assassination are too coincidental. I suspect that this is a carefully planned man-made incident, not an accident."
"How to say it?" Li Longji's face became colder. It was a natural disaster that could be accidentally denied by accidents and carefully planned, and it was even more intolerable.
Pei Min replied: "I asked the Taoist priest who first caught fire. The fire did not spread after it was completely ignited, but it spreads before it was completely ignited. This situation will only occur if there are igniting materials. If I expected it, the fire was just a cover. The purpose was to create chaos! It would be easier for them to act..."
Li Longji said in a cold voice: "Who is it? What kind of hatred does this plan have with Yu Zhen?" He looked at Li Chiying beside him and said: "Who did the Ten Sisters offend?"
"Where is it!" Li Chiying said aggrievedly: "The tenth sister listens to the old Taoist priests chanting all day long, so how can she have the time to offend others."
"This..." Pei Min said with a little embarrassedly: "Yichen's estimate that the princess was innocent and the assassin's target should be the weak minister. No matter how cunning the assassin is, it is impossible for me to count Princess Yuzhen to appear in the fire. But my mansion is next to Yuzhen Temple. There is something wrong with Yuzhen Temple, and it involves the princess. I cannot sit idly by and I will definitely appear. With my martial arts, it is not easy for the assassin to assassin to assassin to assassin. However, at the firefighting scene, when people come and go, I will attract my mind for the fire and reveal flaws. In fact, the assassin almost succeeded a little..."
Li Longji looked at Pei Min deeply, with a small amount of self-blame in his eyes, and sighed: "It's so painful that I'm quiet and far away!"
Pei Min smiled and said, "Why did Your Majesty say this? It's a stingy way, but it just affected the princess. I feel ashamed."
Li Chiying smiled and said, "It's okay to burn it, so you don't have to listen to the bearded old Taoist chanting."
"Yuzhen!" Li Longji shouted softly.
Li Chiying narrowed her eyes and stopped talking.
