Chapter 16041606【Assassination】


    After Xiang Nan and Junbao came down from the mountain, they rode towards Luoyang City.


    Along the way, we saw that every village was empty, with signs of burning, killing and looting everywhere.


    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Robbery, burning, killing, even those heroes and martyrs can''t do anything without committing a crime and maintaining strict discipline.


    After all, everyone is greedy and has selfish thoughts. Only a very small number of people can freeze to death without demolishing their houses or starve to death without looting. Besides, even rebelling against others, even risking one’s life, and murdering people with red eyes, who would care about benevolence, righteousness and morality?


    ?Just like the Liuliu and Liuqi Uprising, although it was highly praised in history books, the people at that time actually suffered greatly from it.


    Because among their ranks are only ruffians and scoundrels, who burn, kill, loot, and cause endless harm to the people. Therefore, the people hated him to the core. The idiom "Liu Li Liu Qi" comes from this.


    This is also the reason why Xiang Nan is unwilling to join these rebels.


    …


    At night, the two of them had arrived in Luoyang, and then climbed up the city wall under the cover of darkness.


    ??Luoyang City Wall is 13 meters high and has a **** of about 80 degrees. It is naturally out of reach for ordinary people. But for Xiang Nan and Junbao, it''s not too difficult.


    They all had practiced Qinggong, their bodies were as light as swallows, and their fingers were like hooks. They could climb up with just a little force, so they quickly climbed up the city wall.


    ?Standing on the city wall and looking into the city, I saw that there were few lights in the city, just like a dead city. Only the Liu Mansion in the east of the city was still brightly lit.


    After Xiang Nan and Junbao entered the city, they first found Taoist Ling.


    Taoist Ling explained the situation in the city again.


    Liu Jin is now almost crazy. Not only does he play songs and enjoy wine and meat every night, but he is also suspicious. He is afraid that the people in the city will resist him, so he sends troops to search for rebels throughout the city.


    Beheaded if you admit it, or beheaded if you don''t admit it. In the past two days alone, more than a dozen families have been executed. The people in the city were so frightened that they kept silent and did not even dare to say anything, for fear of being reported and sent to prison. guillotine.


    ?However, he still contacted a group of people, and after Xiang Nan and Junbao assassinated Liu Jin, they took the opportunity to rise up and drive Liu Jin''s army out of Luoyang City.


    Xiang Nan nodded, took a short rest, and then rushed to Liu Mansion with Junbao.


    …


    Along the way, we saw many of the once bustling and bustling streets now in dilapidated condition. The ground was full of garbage, and most of the shops along the street were empty of goods, and even the doors and windows had been removed.


    In short, it doesn’t look like Luoyang City, more like a demolition site.


    When Xiang Nan and Junbao arrived at the Liu Mansion, they saw that the Liu Mansion was heavily guarded, with one post every five steps and one sentry every ten steps. It seems that Liu Jin still cherishes his life.


    ?However, such a tight guard still couldn''t do anything to Xiang Nan and Junbao.


    The two of them sneaked into Liu''s mansion through the water channel in the southeast corner of the house. This path was also pointed out to them by Taoist Ling.


    After entering the Liu Mansion, they followed the map and found the back garden.


    ??I saw that the back garden of the Liu Mansion occupies a very large area, and I am afraid it may not have more than dozens of acres of land. Half of it was dug into a pond, and half was piled into a rockery, with pavilions and pavilions nestled among it. It can be said to be quite beautiful.


    At this moment, although it is already late at night, there is still a lot of feasting in the backyard.


    Liu Jin was sitting on the pavilion in the middle of the lake drinking wine, surrounded by beautiful women. On the waterside pavilion on the other side, there is also a group of dancers performing dances.


    Si and bamboo orchestras, exquisite delicacies, jade liquid and fine wine, beauties as beautiful as jade... Judging from these aspects, Liu Jin is still a person who knows how to enjoy.


    ??It''s just that the soldiers standing around the banquet were full of evil spirits, which made the atmosphere of the banquet not lively no matter what.


    "I''ll kill Liu Jin and leave the rest of the soldiers to you. Remember not to be soft-hearted and kill when you need to. Otherwise, you and I will both end up here, and he will harm more people." Xiang Nan reminded Jun Baodao.


    He knew that Jun Bao was soft-hearted and would not kill him if he had to. But now they are here to assassinate, and the number of soldiers guarding the Liu Mansion may not be more than 2,000. If Liu Jin cannot be killed in a hurry, they will be surrounded by soldiers. By that time, even if they have unparalleled martial arts skills, it will be difficult for them to escape with their lives.


    So, now is not the time to be soft-hearted.


    Junbao nodded.


    …


    The two of them immediately held their breath, dived into the water, and slowly swam to the pavilion in the middle of the lake in the garden.


    Immediately, Xiang Nan drew out his big sword, climbed up on the pavilion in the center of the lake, jumped up, and struck Liu Jin with a knife, "Gun, your death has come~"


    ?His sword was extremely fast, like lightning in mid-air, and it struck towards Liu Jin.


    Unexpectedly, Liu Jin looked drunk, but was extremely agile. He immediately rolled to the side and pushed the beautiful woman next to him out.


    ?Fortunately, Xiang Nan stopped the knife in time, otherwise, the innocent woman would have been splattered with blood.


    "Bold rebel, you dared to assassinate me, you dared to assassinate me, you dared to come and kill me!" Liu Jin then pulled out a soft sword from under the table and stabbed Xiang Nan.


    At the same time, the surrounding guards also ran to the Huxin Pavilion, and some people sounded the gong to warn, "Come quickly, there are rebels who will assassinate the emperor~"


    Upon seeing this, Jun Bao immediately guarded the pavilion in the middle of the lake. All guards who wanted to pass had to knock him down first.


    When Xiang Nan saw Liu Jin stabbing him, he did not dodge or dodge, but struck him with the sword as usual.


    ?Time was tight and he didn''t have time to deal with Liu Jin, so he completely traded injuries for injuries.


    Liu Jin did not dare to fight with Xiang Nan. After all, he had just become emperor and had not enjoyed enough yet.


    ?So he immediately changed his sword moves, thrust the sword horizontally, and held Xiang Nan''s sword.


    ?His soft sword seemed to be extremely thin and boneless. Unexpectedly, Xiang Nan''s sword struck it and did not break his sword. It can be seen that his sword also has a history.


    ?However, even though he held Xiang Nan''s sword in place, the huge force coming from the sword still caused his jaw to tremble and his right arm to feel sore and numb.


    Xiang Nan refused to give up and continued to attack blindly.


    Liu Jin''s skill was far inferior to Xiang Nan''s, so he could only try his best to parry, and was beaten and dodged in all directions. From time to time, he would use the beauties in the pavilion in the middle of the lake to avoid Xiang Nan''s attacks.


    Xiang Nan was not interested in those beauties, but he couldn''t bear to let them die unjustly, so he had some scruples about taking action.


    Unexpectedly, Liu Jin was so cunning and cunning that he noticed this and simply used these girls as shields.


    ?Seeing this, Xiang Nan had no choice but to destroy the flowers with his own hands, "I''m offended~"


    After saying that, he kicked all the girls into the water one by one.


    Anyway, the water in the pond is not deep enough for anyone. If those girls fall in, they will catch a little cold at most, but they will not drown if they are drowned.


    "Let me go. Whatever you want, glory, wealth, gold and silver, I will give it to you~" Liu Jin saw that all the shields were gone, and he was really no match for Xiang Nan, and his guards were all tightly held by Junbao. He was blocked outside the pavilion in the middle of the lake, and he had no choice but to beg for mercy.


    "Hmph, you, a castrated dog, have only been the emperor for a few days, and you are talking so much about me. Do you really think you are a great person?" After hearing this, Xiang Nan couldn''t help but laugh, "I don''t want what I want. If there are too many, I want you to have a head on your neck, give it to me~"


    ??As he spoke, he slashed at him with a knife. Liu Jin wanted to dodge, but Xiang Nan slashed with his right hand, punched with his left hand, and kicked his lower body.


    Liu Jin blocked Xiang Nan''s sword with her sword and blocked Xiang Nan''s fist with her hand. However, she couldn''t dodge the kick. She was kicked on the knee and fell to her knees with a thud.


    Xiang Nan raised the knife and dropped it. With a pop, the big head was held in his hand.
