Episode 10 Chapter 676

It turned out to be poison. Jiaxi closed the brocade box and put it in his arms without saying anything.

Tang Yin had already explained when he came here. This assassination operation was a life-or-death situation. Jiaxi was also mentally prepared and did not plan to return to Feng Country alive. It was good that Shao Fang prepared poison to save himself or his brothers from suffering after being captured.

"If you have no other instructions, I will take my leave first." Jiaxi bowed and said.

"Yes!" Shao Fang nodded, and reminded him again with concern: "Be careful, don't expose your identity, and don't come to me casually if there is nothing important."

"I understand."

Jiaxi put the map away, and then followed Yuanyin to exit the secret room.

Shao Ting's hunting location is located in the southern suburbs of Zhenjiang, which is a vast mountain forest.

Shao Fang drew a very detailed map for Jiaxi, marking the peaks and mountain roads in the forest, and even drew several streams and puddles.

With this map, you can walk through the forest with ease even if you come here for the first time.

Since this is one of the hunting sites of the royal family, it is usually strictly prohibited to enter, and there are Moshi guarding outside the forest. However, this is not difficult for Jia Xi and other dark spiritual practitioners. It is easy for them to pass the sentry without being noticed.

After entering the forest, Jia Xi and others first found the main mountain road into the mountain according to the map, which is also the only way for Shao Ting to hunt.

The mountain road is rugged and uneven, with dense forests on both sides, which is very easy to set up an ambush.

It took them a whole day to carefully observe the mountain road and finally confirmed that the ambush site was set here.

In the middle of the mountain road, the forests on both sides are the most lush, and there are also half-human-high weeds. Let alone ambushing these twenty people, even if they ambush hundreds or thousands of people, it is difficult to be discovered.

Looking up, the trees on the roadside were lush and leafy, and many branches had extended to the top of the mountain road, forming a natural barrier, blocking the light and making the mountain road very dark.

This is the best ambush site. Jia Xi quickly decided on the place for the assassination, and then gathered twenty secret agents to start detailed deployment and division of labor. After everything was done, he led the secret agents out of the forest along the same route.

The sun and the moon shuttled, time flew, and more than ten days passed in the blink of an eye.

This day, it was finally the day for Mo Wang Shao Ting to go out of the city to hunt.

Shao Ting was not a bold person, but he was very enthusiastic about hunting. He would take time out almost every month to go hunting in the suburbs once or twice. He also liked the feeling of commanding thousands of troops. Of course, he regarded the hunting ground as a battlefield and the prey as the enemy's army. If he was asked to go to the real battlefield, he would not have the courage.

Since Shao Ting became the monarch of Mo, Mo has never launched a national war against other countries.

The monarch went out hunting with great pomp and unprecedented splendor.

Shao Ting sat in the carriage, surrounded by the royal guards. These Mo soldiers were strong and powerful, and each one was an elite. Outside, there was the most fierce First Corps of the Mo Kingdom. They were not only well-equipped, but also brave and good at fighting. Whether ordinary soldiers or senior officers, they were all strictly selected from the Mo Army.

Accompanying Shao Ting were several princes such as Shao Fang and Shao Bo, as well as civil and military ministers in the court.

Among them, the most eye-catching were two generals, one gold and one silver.

The general walking on the left side of Shao Ting's carriage was wearing silver armor and a silver helmet on his head, with a white cloak on his back and a snow-white colt under his crotch. Looking up, both the man and the horse were dressed in white, heroic and vigorous. Looking at his face, he looked to be in his forties, with a white face and black beard, handsome features, and a dignified appearance.

This was Lian Ge, who was known as the long-victorious general in the Mo Kingdom.

The general walking on the right side of the carriage was also in his early forties, wearing golden armor, riding a red horse, tall and strong, with broad shoulders and a round waist, rough features, and a fierce look. This was Xiang Hui, a famous general of the Mo Kingdom who was as famous as Lian Ge.

These two people can be said to be the symbol of the military power of the Mo Kingdom, and they are also recognized as the two strongest masters in the Mo Kingdom.

With so many guards protecting him, and Lian Ge and Xiang Hui by his side, Shao Ting was worry-free every time he went out hunting, and never thought that someone would dare to assassinate him. However, he did not expect that this hunting trip would be the last one in his life.

Behind Shao Ting's carriage were the carriages of Shao Fang, Shao Bo and other princes, and behind them were the civil and military ministers on horseback.

With a large number of Mo troops leading the way, the team marched out of Zhenjiang City and headed straight for the hunting ground in the southern suburbs.

Shao Fang sat in the carriage, and his heart gradually rose to his throat. In order to avoid being seen, he and Jiaxi met twice in total. The first time was when Jiaxi just arrived in Zhenjiang, and the second time was last night. Jiaxi told him the specific location of the assassination.

With only 20 people, Shao Fang had no idea whether he could succeed in assassinating his heavily protected father. If he failed, if Jiaxi and others were captured and confessed, the consequences would be disastrous. At this time, Shao Fang's nerves were stretched to the extreme, but he had no way out and could only continue according to the plan.

Soon, the team arrived at the forest.

Because the mountain road in the forest was narrow and rugged, it was not suitable for carriages to travel, so Shao Ting and his princes got off their carriages and rode into the mountains.

Now Shao Ting rarely wore armor, rode a tall horse, slung a sword around his waist, and held a longbow in his hand. He looked like he was doing it.

He was in high spirits and urged everyone around him, saying, "Go into the mountains, go into the mountains, today I want to show my skills."

Lian Ge and Xiang Hui did not dare to leave his side. Seeing that the old king urged his horse forward from time to time, the two followed closely and repeatedly reminded him: "The mountain road is difficult to walk, the king should go slowly!"

"Haha——" Shao Ting looked up at the king and said: "I have been hunting here for decades. When have you two ever seen me have an accident?"

"Yes!" Lian Ge and Xiang Hui were not good at flattery. After hearing what Shao Ting said, they just responded helplessly.

At this time, Shao Fang, Shao Bo and other princes had urged their horses to catch up, and laughed: "Father is good at riding and shooting, even the sons and ministers are not as good as him!"

Hearing this, Shao Ting felt even better. He waved the longbow in his hand and laughed: "It is now late winter, and there are many deer in the mountains. You all show your true skills. See who harvests the most prey. Father will definitely reward you!"

The princes were all excited and responded one after another.

The group urged the horses and went deep into the mountains.

Shao Fang was nervous, but on the surface he looked like nothing had happened. He walked and chatted with his brothers. While talking, his eyes were not idle, and he kept looking around.

After walking for a while, the forest became denser and the light became dimmer. At this time, a rock on the side of the road attracted Shao Fang's attention. He was moved, it should be here.

He said to Shao Bo calmly: "Third brother, I found a group of dancers two days ago. They are not only young and beautiful, but also good at singing and dancing. When are you free to come to my house?"

Shao Bo knew that his second brother liked women the most. He was not interested, but it was difficult to refuse. He responded: "Okay! If I have time, I will definitely go to my brother's house."

"Okay, okay, it's a deal. You and I brothers haven't sat down and talked for a long time."

What is there to talk about? Shao Bo muttered in his heart. For the position of the crown prince, he and Shao Fang had already begun to fight openly and secretly, but on the surface they had to show brotherly affection and closeness.

"Yes! Brother Wang is getting busier and busier. As his younger brother, I am embarrassed to bother him."

"Hey? What are you talking about, Third Brother? We are brothers..."

Snap!

Before he finished speaking, the stirrup under his right leg suddenly broke. Shao Fang lost his balance. He screamed instinctively and rolled off the horse.

"Ah! Brother Wang..."

Shao Fang suddenly fell off the horse while they were chatting. Shao Bo was also startled. He hurriedly pulled the reins, turned over and got off the horse. He walked forward quickly. He looked down and almost laughed out loud. He saw Shao Fang lying on his back with his face flushed. His facial features were almost twisted into a ball. He was lying there groaning.

"Brother Wang, where are you injured?"

No matter how he was gloating in his heart, he had to show concern on the surface. As he spoke, he squatted down to help Shao Fang, who said weakly, "I seem to be hurt by the stones on the ground..."

Shao Ting, who was walking in front, also heard a strange sound behind him. He looked back and saw that his favorite second son Shao Fang was lying on the ground for some reason. He took a deep breath, turned his horse's head, and quickly retreated, asking, "Fang'er, what's wrong?"

"Father, I'm fine. The stirrup just broke, and I didn't pay attention and fell down."

"Oh!" Shao Ting breathed a sigh of relief and Asked: "Are you hurt?"

With the help of Shao Bo, Shao Fang sat up with difficulty. He shook his head and said: "I was hit by a stone on the ground. I will sit here and rest for a while."

"Don't force yourself. If you feel uncomfortable, go back to the city first..."

"No, it's rare for father to go out of the city to hunt today. How can I spoil your interest?"

Shao Ting nodded secretly, thinking that it was right. His second son was becoming more and more sensible. It should be right to make him the crown prince and pass the throne to Shao Fang. He smiled and said: "Bo'er, you stay and take good care of your second brother."

"Yes! Father!"

When Shao Fang heard that Shao Bo wanted to stay and take care of him, how could he agree? He waved his hands and said: "No, no, third brother, follow father quickly and help me win the first place."

Shao Bo was unwilling to stay and take care of Shao Fang, but he dared not disobey his father's words. He said: "It doesn't matter whether you get the first place or not. I am also worried about leaving my brother here alone!"

Humph! What a monster! You can't wait for me to die! Shao Fang sneered in his heart, but seeing Shao Bo insisted, he didn't force him, and said with a smile: "That's really unfair to Brother Bo."

"Brother Wang, what are you talking about? You and I are brothers!"

Looking at the "deep brotherly love" of Shao Fang and Shao Bo, Shao Ting was naturally very happy, and laughed twice, then turned his horse and continued to move forward.

Shao Ting left first, but he didn't go far. Suddenly, he heard a scream with a changed tone from behind...Talent Pavilion
