Chapter 441: 9 Junior Brother Has Been Kidnapped Again (4)
After Yun Shen returned to the inn, Yan Zeheng finally woke up from his dream.
After all, he had been standing for a long time, and a layer of frost had covered Yan Zeheng's body. The night was as cold as water, and standing motionless in the yard, it was inevitable that he would be invaded by the cold.
But after Yan Zeheng woke up, the first thing he did was to put his sword back into the scabbard and hold it tightly in his hand. He never thought about putting on an outer robe.
Yan Zeheng waved to the side and Mu Feng, who was hiding in the dark, appeared.
Mu Feng clasped his hands together and asked, "My Lord, what do you want me to do?"
Yan Zeheng ordered: "Withdraw some of the guards in the palace tomorrow. There is no need to send anyone to guard my courtyard."
Mu Feng really wanted to ask his prince, you knew that someone was coming to assassinate him, why didn't you just not strengthen the guards, but you also reduced the guards?
Mu Feng had never seen his master so irrational before, so he had to persuade him, "Your Majesty, the assassin might come again tomorrow. I am worried..."
Yan Zeheng raised his hand to interrupt Mu Feng's words, "This king knows what is going on."
Mu Feng didn't say anything more after hearing this. He believed in the prince. The prince must have his plans. Their prince has always been wise and brave, and has never made any mistakes.
Poor Mu Feng had no idea that his prince had already been bewitched by beauty, and was so bewitched that he didn't even know what was going on.

next day
Jiang Zhixun stretched himself, feeling very grateful that he had finally had a good night's sleep. He felt refreshed.
However, next time, I'd better not take my junior brother to take on such a long mission. It's too tiring to sleep in the open air along the way.
Junior brother, you just need to take on some easy tasks in the future. The senior brothers will take care of the money making.
Jiang Zhixun stood up and looked at the time. It turned out that it was only the morning hour. So he decided not to wake up his junior brother and let him sleep a little longer. He could go to Prince Ze's mansion to check the situation by himself.
Jiang Zhixun had breakfast in the lobby on the first floor and then headed towards Prince Ze’s Mansion.
Who would have thought that as soon as he walked out of the inn, someone blocked his way with a folding fan.
The man had an androgynous face and wore a flamboyant red brocade robe embroidered with gold thread. Even the painting on his folding fan was of peonies. He looked quite a romantic man.
Jing Ye lifted Jiang Zhixun's chin with his folding fan and asked in a joking tone, "He is wearing black clothes in broad daylight and covering his face. I'm afraid he is not an outlaw, right?"
Although Jiang Zhixun could hardly restrain himself from beating up the man in front of him, he finally held back. He was here to carry out a mission and couldn't attract too much attention.
If things get out of hand, not to mention assassinating King Ze, even escaping will be a problem.
Jiang Zhixun could only explain in a gentle voice: "Sir, I wear black clothes just for convenience, and I cover my eyes with black cloth because I am blind and cannot see the light. I am not a suspicious person."
Jing Ye smiled and replied: "Oh? Really? Then I want to see if you are really blind."
Jing Ye pulled off the black cloth covering Jiang Zhixun's eyes as he spoke, "This face is quite good, but I wonder if he is really blind?"
Jiang Zhixun didn't expect that Jing Ye could actually tear off the black veil on his face.
You have to know that the masks that their fellow disciples use to conceal their faces have magic cast by their master, and not just anyone can touch them.
For example, his black veil may seem ordinary, but it is actually invulnerable to swords and guns and cannot be destroyed. Besides, no one has ever been able to take it off except himself.
But Jiang Zhixun didn't have time to think about why this happened. He had to get through this hurdle first.
Jiang Zhixun first pretended to raise his hand to block the light, and then he looked blankly, with eyes that looked lifeless.
But Jing Ye is not someone who can be easily fooled.
With a wave of the folding fan, the hidden weapon inside was revealed, and it flew straight towards Jiang Zhixun's eyes.
Jiang Zhixun didn't even blink, as if he was really blind.
Jing Ye had no intention of hurting anyone, and the hidden weapon did not hurt Jiang Zhixun, it just brushed past Jiang Zhixun's cheek.
Jing Ye retracted his hand and stuffed the black veil back into Jiang Zhixun's hand, "You are really a blind man. It's a pity for this face."
Jing Ye walked away, fanning himself. Jiang Zhixun looked at Jing Ye's back and cursed inwardly, "You have a woman's face."
Jiang Zhixun blindfolded himself again and headed towards Prince Ze's Mansion. This time he encountered no obstacles and successfully arrived at Prince Ze's Mansion.
Jiang Zhixun took a walk around the outskirts of Prince Ze’s Mansion, but it was enough for him to see the situation inside Prince Ze’s Mansion clearly.
After Jiang Zhixun finished reading it, a big question mark rose in his heart. Isn't the guard of the Zewang Mansion too lax? The guards of ordinary wealthy families are much stricter than those of the Zewang Mansion.
Could it be that Prince Ze had already heard the news and knew that their people from Tianshan Sect were coming to assassinate him, so he deliberately staged this drama to lure him into a trap?
Jiang Zhixun returned to the inn full of doubts.
Yun Shen has also woken up and knows where Jiang Zhixun has gone. He is now sitting in Jiang Zhixun's room waiting for him to come back.
Jiang Zhixun was still thinking about what was going on in Prince Ze's Mansion, and didn't notice for a moment that there was a living person sitting in the room.
If it were someone else, Jiang Zhixun would definitely be alert, but Jiang Zhixun was already so familiar with the aura of his junior brother that he subconsciously ignored it.
Finally, Yun Shen looked at Jiang Zhixun's distressed look and asked, "Third Senior Brother, what happened?"
Jiang Zhixun finally came to his senses, "Ah, Junior Brother, it's nothing, I just went to Prince Ze's Mansion and looked around, and I found something strange."
Yun Shen asked knowingly, "What's so strange about that?"
Jiang Zhixun did not hide it, "The guards of Prince Ze's mansion are a little too lax. I wonder if Prince Ze has set a trap."
Yun Shen responded calmly: "That's probably because of me."
Jiang Zhixun was surprised: "You? Junior brother, what did you do?"
Yun Shen took a sip of tea and said, "I didn't do anything. I just went to Prince Ze's mansion to check out the location last night and said hello to Prince Ze. I told him that I was going to assassinate him tonight."
Jiang Zhixun was more than just surprised. "What? Junior brother, did you tell Prince Ze that we were going to assassinate him?"
Yun Shen used the method of lying with open eyes to appease Jiang Zhixun, "Third Brother, this is my plan."
"Prince Ze's mansion is heavily guarded, and Prince Ze is also a skilled martial artist. If we force our way in, we may not be able to assassinate him successfully."
"But it would be different if we had given advance notice. People like King Ze must have some ego."
"I told him in advance that I was going to assassinate him. If he increases his guard, it would appear that he is at a disadvantage and is afraid."
"Ordinary men like to save face, let alone someone like Prince Ze."
"After I put it this way, even if King Ze doesn't reduce the guards, he will definitely not increase them."
Jiang Zhixun was completely convinced and praised: "Little Junior Brother, you are really smart!"
333: This is the first time the host has said so many words, and he is actually talking nonsense in a serious manner.
