The noise in the hall of Cao Mansion suddenly disappeared.
The entire hall became quiet and silent. The atmosphere changed from joyful to solemn and tense in the blink of an eye. Dian Wei and Xu Chu stood in front of Cao Cao, looking at Cao Peng and the beautiful maid in his hands warily, their big hands seemed to be
Inadvertently, he placed it on the sword on his waist.
There are a total of three people wearing weapons in this hall.
Apart from Xu, Chu, Dian and Wei, there was only one person named Cao Peng.
Gao Shun was startled at first, then glanced at the Tong Jue on the table, and his expression suddenly changed.
He clearly remembered that the glass of wine in front of him was filled by the beautiful maid in Cao Peng's hand. Could it be that... Gao Shun's eyes narrowed into a line. The big hands placed on the table had blue veins exposed.
He was eager to attack at any time. But Cao Cao's face was as sinking as water. However, he did not say anything and only looked at Cao Peng quietly. He knew very well that Cao Peng would never commit suicide at this time.
In the capital city of Xu, the person who most wanted Lu to surrender to the Han Kingdom was not Cao Cao or Gao Shun.
The person who really hopes to succeed in joining is undoubtedly Cao Peng.
The beautiful maid showed fear and looked pitiful, "Master, how can a slave be able to taste this kind of jade paste?"
"I'll let you taste it."
Cao Peng looked directly at the beautiful maid.
Cao Cao suddenly said: "Eat."
The beautiful maid was startled and her face changed.
Suddenly, she slammed the wine bottle in her hand at Cao Peng.
Cao Peng turned his head to dodge, but he didn't expect the beautiful maid's long skirt to flutter, and one of her feet darted out from the shadow of the skirt. The exquisite bow shoes flashed a cold light and kicked Cao Peng's chin fiercely.
Damn, shadowless feet... Cao Peng was also startled and stepped back. Unexpectedly, the maidservant took the opportunity to wave her hand and shook Cao Peng's palm away. At the same time, Cao Peng's arm used force and suddenly flew into the air.
He stood up, like Ling Yan returning to his nest, and rushed towards Gao Shun behind the desk. From his sleeve, a short sword slipped out, with a blue light on the blade.
Cao Cao was protected by Xu Chu and Dian Wei, so it was quite difficult to kill Cao Cao.
But Gao Shun...
Seeing the beautiful maid rushing towards him, Gao Shun roared, took back the table, and suddenly exerted force on his hands.
The heavy food table suddenly flew up and hit the beautiful maid. However, he saw the beautiful maid calmly in the air, stepping on the table with her slender feet, and her figure grew taller again. Only this time, the one she assassinated
The target is no longer Gao Shun, but Cao Cao on the other side.
Dian Wei and Xu Chu were shocked.
Because the figure of this beautiful maid actually passed over their heads.
"Uncle, be careful!"
Cao Peng was also caught off guard.
He never expected that the beautiful maid was actually a master. Looking at her skills, she was probably not inferior to Leng Fei back then.
In other words, her tactics were similar to Leng Fei's.
Seeing that the beautiful maid was about to arrive in front of Cao Cao, Cao Peng suddenly thought and threw the sword in his hand with a cry.
He threw it with enough strength. The sword flashed with a cold light in the air, and with a clang sound, the maid knocked it to the ground with a short sword. However, in the blink of an eye, Xu Chu had already crossed the line.
Dian Wei stood in front of Cao Cao. Dian Wei roared angrily, drew his sword and stabbed the maidservant.
Cao Cao's face turned pale.
If Cao Peng hadn't thrown his sword to save him just now, he might have been injured in the hands of the beautiful maid.
Suddenly, Cao Cao was furious. Behind Xu Chu, he shouted sternly: "Zhongkang, Jun Ming, please don't let this cheap maid go."
Xu Chu responded immediately, drew his sword and rushed over.
The skill of the beautiful maid was indeed not bad, and her figure and steps were extremely flexible. Even a person like Dian Wei could not end the battle immediately when facing the beautiful maid. He was so angry that he roared like thunder and held a sword in his hand.
Dancing and whirring, the sword flashed and the sound was terrifying.
But Xu Chu joined the battle group from the side, and the maidservant suddenly lost her sense of proportion.
The two masters were attacking each other, and the maidservant was definitely no match.
She took a sneak peek and found that the civil and military officials in the lobby had already retreated.
Cao Cao and Gao Shun were also protected by guards. If they tried to assassinate Cao Peng again, it would be difficult to succeed. However, the maid found that Cao Peng was standing by with his bare hands. A trace of hatred flashed in his beautiful eyes. She
She suddenly turned sideways to dodge, and at this moment, Xu Chu arrived in front of her with a punch. The beautiful maid seemed unable to dodge, and was hit by Xu Chu's punch. Her petite body flew out immediately, and she spurted out a mouthful of blood, but her body was lifted by Xu Chu's punch.
The power of this punch flew out quickly, and the dagger in his hand flashed and rushed towards Cao Peng.
"Afu, be careful..."
Cao Cao was shocked when he saw it.
He quickly wanted to go up and pick up Cao Peng's sword and hand it to Cao Peng.
But it's too late!
It was too late, but soon, the beautiful maid arrived in front of Cao Peng.
But he saw that Cao Peng was not in a hurry or dodging. He raised his arm and suddenly turned his wrist. With a snap, a steel crossbow flew out of his sleeve and hit the beautiful maid on the shoulder.
The huge force actually caused the beautiful maid to retreat several steps and fall on her back.
"Thief Cao, I can't kill you now, even if I'm a ghost, I won't let you go."
While the beautiful maid was speaking, she turned her hand and stabbed the sword into her chest. Her body twitched, and her beautiful face showed a look of pain, and she died immediately. The blood on her chest was black and flowed instantly.
Cao Peng wanted to stop her, but it was too late. He quickly took a few steps forward and came to the side of the maid. He stretched out his hand to sniff under the maid's nose, and frowned.
"Afu, how's it going?"
"died!"
As Cao Peng spoke, he raised his head.
"He's a dead man."
He reached out and pulled out the dagger from the maid's chest.
A guard came forward and wanted to take it, but Cao Peng said in a deep voice: "Be careful, it's poisonous."
"Come here, cut this wretched servant into pieces for me."
Cao Cao was really frightened and couldn't help but become angry.
Several guards immediately stepped forward, but Cao Peng said: "My lord, wait a moment."
"Afu, are you okay?"
Cao Peng handed over his hand and said, "Thank you for your concern, my lord. It's all right."
As he spoke, he glanced at Gao Shun and said sternly: "Gao Sima, please don't blame me. I noticed just now that the clothes on this woman's body didn't fit well. The clothes don't belong to her, so I'm presumptuous... This must be done..."
Someone wanted to destroy the friendship with your country, so this happened. When she was pouring wine for Gao Sima, her hands were shaking slightly, so I felt that something was not normal about her."
Tonight's banquet was arranged by Cao Peng.
All the maids who serve have also gone through some preparation.
The clothes were specially made to order; and before the banquet, it was even arranged who each would serve the wine to.
Cao Peng originally did not expect such a thing to happen. He just thought that the maid was a little abnormal, so he stepped forward to stop her. Unexpectedly, this maid turned out to be a specially trained death warrior. He explained to Gao Shun
, and then said to Cao Cao: "Sikong Mansion is heavily guarded, but this woman managed to sneak in. I'm afraid... because of her humble position, it's best to find someone to identify her first."
Yes, the guards at Sikong Mansion can be said to be extremely strict, even stricter than those inside the Imperial Palace.
It is not easy for outsiders to sneak in.
Being able to blend into the crowd without anyone noticing, and also take on the important task of pouring wine... How could this be done by ordinary people? Most importantly, how did this woman know that she was pouring wine for Gao Shun? Not
Others? There must be something wrong inside.
Cao Cao also calmed down at this time, "Then I'll leave it to you, Ah Fu."
Cao Peng agreed, turned around and scanned the women in charge of pouring wine in the hall.
"Come here, get the list."
Since it can be arranged to serve wine, there must be detailed records. Cao Peng stepped forward, came to a maid, and said in a deep voice: "Do you recognize the assassin?"
"Go back to the young master, I don't recognize you!
Xiaoyu was originally responsible for pouring wine for Gao Sima. Just before the wine was served, she suddenly ran over and said that Xiaoyu was ill, so she asked her to take over temporarily. At that time, the maids were busy preparing wine, so they didn't pay attention... Master, I
It really has nothing to do with this assassin."
"This humble servant is cunning and needs severe punishment."
To be continued...
