Shu'er immediately understood what Lin Ying said.

If these dozen masked killers were ordered by the current King of Chu to assassinate Lin Ying, the crown prince of the Lin family appointed by King Chu Mu, there would be no need to be so public, and why would they choose a place like Linjiang Restaurant where there are so many people coming and going?

Where is the place? Why do you need to publicly announce who you stabbed? Doing this is just to hide it.

Shu'er said to Lin Ying, "I'll fight out and go to the Linjiang City Government Office to move the officers and soldiers."

Lin Ying pulled Shu'er to sit down, and while smiling and watching Dongfang Sui compete vigorously with the dozen or so masters, she said: "The people who ran away must have gone to report to the government long ago. If the officers and soldiers of the government office want to come, they will naturally

You will come, but you don’t want to come. Even if your father moves there, it won’t help. They dared to assassinate the Young Master of Chu in broad daylight, and openly framed the blame on your father. They must have settled the Linjiang government office. Maybe at this time

The government office is completely deserted."

Shu'er asked in confusion: "Who dares to be so bold?"

Lin Yingdao: "Looking at the Chu Kingdom today, the seven kings are gone. Your father alone has the power. If you want to reshape the country, you can only use a pair of iron-blooded methods. Since your father ascended the throne, he has offended the court.

There are quite a few people.

The three princes and nine ministers are all from Chuyue aristocratic families, but your Dongfang family has never been an official in the past dynasties. Your father and my father met when they were young, and it was through Master Zhuge's relationship. After that, my father used your father as an official, and made Yi Jie

The commoner strategist rose through the ranks and reached the position of military advisor to King Sheng, but now it is rumored that it was through the relationship between your mother and queen.

Sister Shu'er, you have never been to the court meeting in Qianqiu Palace, so you don't know the atmosphere of the recent court meeting. To put it bluntly, no matter how wise and brave your father is, in front of those Chuyue aristocratic families, he will always be a man of the world. Not only is his background inferior to others

, and also sat on the dragon throne through various side connections.

The century-old foundation of the Lin family of the Chu Kingdom is not only supported by the power of the seven princes, but also the noble families and famous families. The Chu Kingdom suddenly changed its surname. If your father wants to clean up the entangled corruption, it will definitely not happen overnight.

It can be accomplished. The current internal fighting in Chu State is whether you are faster than your father, or whether the powerful families are more ruthless."

Shu'er frowned: "Why are you talking so much? Do we want to sit back and watch while chatting about military and domestic affairs?"

Lin Ying whispered in Shu'er's ear: "Don't worry. Didn't Little Dongfang practice hundreds of swordsmanship with Xiao Mo on Xuanji Island? These people obviously underestimated your little brother's kung fu. They all

He didn’t call for help, so let’s stay calm for a while.”

Shu'er glared at Lin Ying: "Don't take personal revenge! No matter how little he treats you, he is still my biological brother! If he is injured, I..." He raised his fist.

Lin Ying smiled and removed Shu'er's fist, and whispered: "Sister Shu'er, I can't go and bring reinforcements, I can't let them see that I, the prince of the Lin family, am protecting the son of the King of Chu."

"Why?"

Lin Ying replied: "For the safety of you and your brother, I must pretend that today's matter has nothing to do with me, and even pretend to take pleasure in others' misfortune. Only in this way will those noble families think that I, Lin Ying, can do something for them."

They are puppets. I may be able to know in advance what they plan to do in the future. I feel that today they are not only here to hurt Little Dongfang, but also to test my position."

Shu'er thought about it carefully and felt that what Lin Ying said was reasonable, but she still said: "Although you don't want to help me, as a sister, I can't just sit here and watch indifferently." So he got up again.

Lin Ying pulled her back vigorously and continued: "Sister Shu'er, they have now found out that Xiao Dongfang is highly skilled in martial arts. If you take action again, they will also find out about your martial arts background. The art of war emphasizes knowing yourself and the enemy, so that you can fight without danger.

, they don’t know your martial arts background, nor my position, and they will be exposed later. Don’t take action, and pretend to be timid and don’t know martial arts, let them think that the lord of Xiling and the female general of Qi are both powerful.

It was a wild boast."

Shu'er could only sigh and sit quietly behind Lin Ying, concentrating on watching Dongfang Sui compete with the masked men.

When everyone in the Chen Kingdom saw that Shu'er and Lin Ying were confidently sitting in their original positions, they had no choice but to follow suit.

Lin Ying suddenly raised her voice and said: "Little brother! Serve the food! Serve the wine!"

Linjiang Restaurant is very spacious. Dongfang Sui and a dozen or so masked men were fighting each other in a corner of the restaurant, but they did not block the way. Lu had been in a military camp and on the battlefield, so he was already used to this kind of fighting.

Shi limped and served dishes one after another, and everyone ate and watched the martial arts.

Lin Ying waved to Lu and said with a smile: "Sit down, eat and watch together with us."

Lu sat in Dongfang Sui's seat, not picking up food, but watching the young man in white fight with a dozen masters in black from a distance, feeling envious in his heart.

Dongfang Sui not only has profound family knowledge, but also received the words and deeds of Qingyu, Yifeng, Zhuge Rongrong, and Shu Wang Wuxie. He also practiced with Mo Huantan on Xuanji Island and practiced hundreds of martial arts included in the "Kyushu Martial Arts Grand Canon".

His swordsmanship and natural martial arts have greatly improved, and are beyond the reach of ordinary masters. Moreover, he is still young and has soft muscles and bones. Whether he is using the erratic Yueren swordsmanship or the treacherous and changeable Wuyi swordsmanship, he is more capable

, nimble and dexterous.

After trying every move of the masked man, Dongfang felt playful, laughed three times, and said loudly: "With your poor skills, no wonder you have to cover your face, so as not to give us the land of Chu Yue."

The martial arts sect is disgraceful!"

A big sword was swung down, but it was snatched away by Dongfang Sui with a move called "stealing the sheep" in the Wuyi Sword Technique. Dongfang Sui smiled and said: "The Phoenix Sword of Fengshan Sect was turned into a 'sparrow's leg' by you.

!Brother, look at how I use the Phoenix Sword Technique!" Then the sword edge changed, like a sword swing, slashing horizontally at the other two masked men.

Before the two masked men had time to dodge, Dongfang Sui's sword like a big knife had already cut their clothes. Dongfang Sui swung his sword again and said while dancing.

"The first form, the phoenix tree lifts the purple mud in the wind!"

"Second style, the phoenix spreads its wings and cuts off the cold branches!"

"Third style, colorful clothes cover up the sun and clouds!"

"The fourth form, wave the wind and rain from all directions!"

Before they finished speaking, the black shirts of the two men were already knotted in hundreds of knots.

Dongfang Sui attacked the other two people again, murmuring: "Two brothers from Qiandang Mountain, your 'Impermanent Sword Technique' is really too unfamiliar! I will teach you what it is."

"Purple clouds rise to the alchemy spring, and the soul of the moon does not stain the sky!" His sword edge was ethereal and weak, but it had already dodged a group of weapons and hit one person's acupuncture point, making that person unable to move.

"Things in the world are unpredictable, and I am dying every step of the way!" He took another big step and snatched the dagger from the other person's hand.

"The worldly realm is on the other side, and the mind can understand itself!" He stabbed directly at the heart of one person's left chest, but the sword edge only penetrated the skin less than an inch before he pulled it out and stabbed the other person.

"The transcendent and ruthless guest is the worst of all, the white-headed man!" Dongfang Cui slashed with his sword, slicing off the leader's hair bun, and then stretched out his hand to pull off the man's black mask.

The man suddenly took a step back and said loudly: "Young Master, what a handsome skill! You can't show it here, let's go downstairs and compete!"

Everyone suddenly stopped fighting and all pulled off the black cloth covering their faces, leaving only the man whose acupuncture points were tapped, standing there blankly. The killers surrounded Dongfang Sui and pulled him to an open area on the street.

A group of people surrounded him and gave him a martial arts showdown.

Dongfang Sui clasped his fists in return and tilted his head to look proudly at the large window on the second floor of Linjiang Restaurant. He saw Princess Li Zheng of the Chen Kingdom stretching her head to look at him, with a pair of smiling eyes that were bright and dust-free.
