401 Failed Plan

Long Kingdom Capital

Qin Shie was holding the little boy in her arm with a tender expression. It has been a long time since she last took care of a kid. She genuinely missed the time when Soujin was still a kid and bother her almost every chance he got. Of course, the cute Soujin disappeared completely after the incidents that befall their family.

At least, now she got a grandchild she could play with occasionally.

"Father, have you finished your work?" she asked the old man in front of her. From what Soujin told her, she knew that her father-in-law was someone who has become extremely busy with work. However, today this old man just showed out of nowhere in front of her.

Nanglong Souka laughed, "Of course I have finished it. This old man is the best to deal with those stuffs."

Qin Shie secretly thought to tell the emperor to give him additional work since he seemed to have become so idle. Seeing the old man laughing in front of her, she wondered whether all the men were so shameless. Well, in her opinion, her husband was not shameless, though.

She suddenly tensed up and looked outside with narrowed eyes. In the next second, she heard the sound of metal clashing and the yell of the servants here and there.

"Father, please stay here," Qin Shie put the sleeping Nanglong Shou on his bed and took out her sword. Yamin and Yasha were already fighting outside along with the men Nanglong Soujin\'s placed, so her role shall be eliminating anyone who came to this room.

Nanglong Souka watched his daughter-in-law held the sword and readied her stances with a helpless expression. If only he could fight, he would surely join the fight too.

The sound of battle grew intense. Suddenly, a man charged into the room. Qin Shie moved her body forward and evaded the sword while attacking the man with her own sword. With one strike, the other party already fell down.

Not long after that, several more men came inside and Qin Shie greeted all of them properly. Finally, the fight ended without much struggle on her side.

"Are you alright, Shie\'er?" Nanglong Souka asked worriedly.

Qin Shie nodded her head, "I\'m fine father. It just my movement has become stiff since I rarely fight."

She had noticed that she became slower and her body cannot move as good as she wished. Thankfully, she already has a small warm up with Jun Hua the other day before, so she knew that her body needed more force to move around as she wished.

Nanglong Souka looked towards the fallen assassins on the ground with a wonder. If Qin Shie with slightly rusted skill defeated them this easily, what if Qin Shie has an excellent skill? He quickly erased those thoughts from his mind as he didn\'t want to talk about it.

Come to think about it, why didn\'t he think of asking his daughter-in-law help when Jun Zhenxian came and beat him up? Well, he still has his pride, and he didn\'t want to ask help from a woman….

"Xiao Yun, help clean up the mess here," Qin Shie ordered.

Xiao Yun already received the order from Jun Hua to follow Qin Shie\'s order, so she curtsied, "Yes Madam."

After finishing ordering the servants, Qin Shie checked Nanglong Shou. She smiled at the sight of the boy still sleeping. It seemed he felt safe here, so he didn\'t even wake up at all the ruckus.

"It would be better if those two could just return here already," Nanglong Souka complained.

"They still have some matter they need to finish," Qin Shie stroked the boy hair with tenderness, "Declaring the rise of a new kingdom didn\'t mean they only need to finish the conquest, but also to make sure the citizen could live happily."

"Still, they don\'t need to do it personally," Nanglong Souka sulked. He has already longed for a retirement, so he could rest. Unfortunately, he needed to wait for the other party return before he could leave his position as the prime minister of Long Kingdom.

Qin Shie just smiled at that remark. Regardless of anything, those two were not one to let other people deal with their problem. Besides that…

She closed her eyes. That person who came with Tang Xuan was on par with Jun Hua or even better. Hopefully, the two of them could stay safe in that place.

Gu Yue Kingdom

Xiao Sao could hear the sound of metal clashing from inside the palace very clearly. He didn\'t bother to look at them as he turned around and ordered the servants to prepare carriage. With Steward Du ability, there was no need for him to worry so much.

"Your Majesty, there is a piece of news from the assassins party at Long Kingdom."

The servants hurriedly bowed towards the prince. Going by his expression, even an idiot would know that the news he brought was not a good one. Xiao Sao face already darkened for he could imagine what the content would be.

"Tell me."

"They are obliterated by the prince and princess\'s men," the servant said in quivering voice. He could not believe the news when he first received them. They have been collecting and trained countless talented individual, but this single mission obliterated most of them.

The prince\'s face darkened. Those people he had sent to Long Kingdom were basically finished by now. Just how many resources he had spent all these past few months only to find them wasted?

"Finish the man inside the palace as fast as possible and I want Tang Xuan and Xiao Meng captured!"

"Yes, Your Highness."

Xiao Sao watched as his men scurried away. He won\'t let anyone who hindered him go.

…

Tang Xuan didn\'t have any problem if he were to run away by himself. With his martial arts, getting past these lousy guards would be easy. However, the two people he brought were made it impossible.

"Can you still run?"

Xiao Meng\'s face had paled considerably. Considering her position as the princess, there was hardly any chance for her to practice martial art. Not to mention she was not one to train her body and learning about trade already took most of her time.

On the other side, Lin Hong still looked better. His breath already turned rough since he was also not someone who practiced much. If not because of his past experience, he might have been weaker because he only learned how to become a good official.

"Probably, I still could," Lin Hong said slowly, "Why do we need to run so much?"

"I can\'t fight them all while protecting the two of you," some of Xiao Sao\'s men were too dangerous and Tang Xuan can\'t possibly beat them while protecting these two.

"Didn\'t you say you\'re included in one of their group? It\'s not that prince group?" Lin Hong asked.

"No, I\'m…." Tang Xuan face changed and he took out his sword to block the attack from the side. The sound of metal clashing made the other two hurriedly retreated despite feeling extremely tired. They could see a group of people coming towards them fast.

Tang Xuan gritted his teeth. If it was only one or two people, he might handle them. However, these men were those prized from Xiao Sao group. He knew it would be taxing for him to deal with them by himself.

"Lou, are you near here?" he shouted.

In a split second, Lou already appeared near them and attacked the other men. Two people were better than one and although they were still at disadvantages, it was far better than before.

"Lou is here?" Lin Hong didn\'t see the other party at all during these times, where did he hide? He turned his head towards Xiao Meng, but the latter just shook her head in confusion for she also didn\'t know anything.

He didn\'t ask anything anymore and quietly search for a good place to hide while the two of them still fight against those men.
