Chapter 448 Provocation
"Chen Er, you threatened me with your voice during court today and even kicked me to the ground. Tell me, how should we settle this score?"
Sun Yunhe's sinister eyes swept over Chen Er from head to toe, a faint smile appearing on his lips.
Chen Er was startled. He hadn't expected Sun Yunhe to be so bold as to openly provoke him at this critical juncture. Clearly, Sun Yunhe's purpose was simply to delay him. Chen Er's lips curled into a smile, revealing his gleaming white teeth, which made Sun Yunhe a little scared.
“Lord Sun Yunhe, I advise you that those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. You just gave me this advice. You should know the Emperor’s temper. Although you have Wei Zhongxian backing you up, things are not so simple today.”
After Chen Er finished speaking, he wanted to pounce on the assassins.
However, Sun Yunhe was not about to let Chen Er rush over. Sun Yunhe overturned one of his tables to the ground, and the table seemed to have a life of its own as it flew towards Chen Er's head.
Chen Er didn't even glance at Sun Yunhe. He simply raised his knee and broke the table into several pieces.
At the same time, Sun Yunhe smiled sinisterly. With a stomp of his feet, Sun Yunhe's body seemed to move like a strange gust of wind as he pounced on Chen Er. Chen Er braced himself on the ground with his hands, and his two feet, like two whips, clamped down on Sun Yunhe's head.
At the same time, Sun Yunhe kicked Chen Er in the chest with both legs. Sun Yunhe was extremely angry with Chen Er because he had been stomped on the ground by Chen Er during the morning court session earlier that day, and was unable to move like a dead dog.
If the Emperor hadn't been there, Sun Yunhe would have broken Chen Er's leg long ago. Now, Sun Yunhe is taking advantage of this opportunity to delay Chen Er and also vent his anger. Why not?
What Sun Yunhe didn't know was that this time he had completely angered Chen Er, and the consequences would be very serious.
“Sun Yunhe, I have already made myself clear to you, but you are still stubborn and will not see the light. So if you want to blame me, I will not be polite to you.”
After uttering a sentence through gritted teeth, Chen Er suddenly clenched his fists and, with unparalleled strength, slammed them into Sun Yunhe's chest.
Sun Yunhe did not dare to underestimate Chen Er's explosive power. Sun Yunhe felt as if the air was not circulating, and the long hair on Sun Yunhe's head stood up one by one. This shows just how powerful Chen Er's strength was.
Unfortunately, to Chen Er's surprise, all the assassins suddenly pounced on him. Chen Er was startled. He hadn't expected that these assassins hadn't come for Zhao Tianming.
It seems they're coming for him? Upon realizing this, Chen Er's official robes were instantly soaked with sweat.
Chen Er had not expected that Wei Zhongxian would be so ruthless as to target him directly. Zhang Tianfei was now sneering, with several daggers tucked between his fingers.
It was like a sharp thorn, stabbing into Chen Er's back. No matter how fast Chen Er reacted, he was still a beat too slow.
"Everyone, stop these assassins! These bastards want to kill our magistrate! Don't let them get through!"
An old man's eyes immediately turned red. The old man, who was selling vegetables there, pulled a cleaver from his cutting board and stood in front of Chen Er.
At the same time, these kind-hearted people formed a wall in front of Chen Er, preventing the so-called assassins from rushing over.
However, all of this was happening at this moment. They didn't have any martial arts skills, but the assassins did. At this moment, Zhang Tianfei suddenly smiled coldly.
Zhang Tianfei's dagger sliced through the air, aimed at the necks of the leading group of villagers, and slashed down. The old man who had spoken first felt a chill on his neck and tried to cover the wound with his hands.
But the blood flowed like a tap that had been turned on, completely staining the old man's hands red.
After the old man and several other villagers died, although they were very scared, they still stood firmly in front of Chen Er, which surprised Zhang Tianfei a little.
"You're all courting death. Looks like I'm going to go on a killing spree today."
After Zhang Tianfei finished speaking, he drew a long knife from his waist. This knife was no ordinary weapon; it had a hilt, indicating that it was specifically designed for killing.
Because such a long knife, if it accidentally penetrates a person's skin, will maximize the damage.
This weapon is extremely powerful because it allows human blood to flow out through the opening. Chen Er was completely terrified by this sudden turn of events.
Chen Er had not expected that these so-called assassins would be so ruthless, not even caring about ordinary people.
Chen Er got up from the ground: "You guys should retreat quickly. There's a chance now. Don't stay here, or I'll feel terrible."
After roaring, Chen Er ignored the injury on his arm and charged at Zhang Tianfei once again.
Sun Yunhe was no longer attacking Chen Er; instead, he used his men to block all the Jinyiwei (Imperial Guards).
"Don't you dare lay a hand on me. This has nothing to do with you. Otherwise, none of you will be able to get away with this today. Even your Lord Zhang Xingchen doesn't dare to be presumptuous in front of me, let alone you," Sun Yunhe said viciously.
Although these Imperial Guards wanted to help Chen Er, they were completely surrounded by the so-called Eastern Depot people. Only now did Chen Er realize how meticulous Wei Zhongxian's thoughts were. Originally, Chen Er and the Emperor had agreed to drag Sun Yunhe down with them.
If Sun Yunhe had come, Wei Zhongxian would have definitely stopped Zhao Beixing from sending assassins to rescue Zhao Tianming. But now all the plans have been completely disrupted, and Wei Zhongxian is going to fight to the death.
When Wei Zhongxian saw that Sun Yunhe had been assigned here, he instructed Sun Yunhe to bring many skilled men from the Eastern Depot. This allowed them to surround the Embroidered Uniform Guard, giving the assassins more time and opportunities.
