Chapter 413 It's really hard to be an assassin(1/2)
A soldier can be killed, but not humiliated.
Xiang Yu felt that he had suffered a great humiliation, so he wanted to draw his sword and commit suicide. However, the Xiang family's children around him stopped him and said sincerely: "General Yu, the great cause has not been achieved, so you must endure it."
Xiang Yu's hand tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, and he was extremely entangled for a moment.
The Xiang family members were all very loyal to protecting their masters, and they formed a circle to surround Xiang Yu.
However, the circle of three people always had some loopholes. The old ladies looked through the gap with interest and looked up and down at the fairest Xiang Yu.
Xiang Xian was eager to solve this matter as soon as possible, and he said to the people around him: "Everyone, we are not assassins. We are the guards of Shangjun Villa. You have also seen it at the selection meeting a few days ago."
An old lady asked, "Since you are not assassins, what are you doing late at night?"
Xiang Xian was speechless for a while and didn't know how to explain it.
Fortunately, the guard who had seen them stood up before and said, "These are always suffering from diarrhea. When the thieves came tonight, they were in the toilet. I saw it with my own eyes, so it would be fine."
After hearing this, everyone believed it a little.
However, some aunts like to pick bones in eggs and said, "Dirty and diarrhea, why not wear clothes?"
The guard explained on his behalf: "Did you have not suffered from diarrhea? When the feeling came, it was like a mountain torrent, unstoppable. How could you have time to wear clothes?"
The aunt hesitated and said, "It seems to be right."
But another aunt said, "However, why do they hold swords in their hands? Do you have time to hold clothes, so do you have time to hold swords?"
The guard smiled and said, "This is their preciousness. These people, whether they eat or sleep, have not forgotten their responsibilities. Even if they have diarrhea, they have to carry swords. Once there is a situation, they have to fight to fight the enemy."
Everyone showed admiration.
Another aunt said, "However, why did they run away in a panic just now? Isn't that guilty?"
As soon as this was said, there was no need for a guard to explain, and the people around him said in a verbal way: "Aunt Wang, you asked knowingly. If you dress like this, wouldn't you run home quickly?"
The guard waved his hand and said, "Let's all go away. The thief hasn't caught it yet. It's important to catch the thief."
When they heard that they were going to catch the assassin, the people finally remembered that the business was coming and left one after another.
Xiang Yu and his friends finally had time to sneak back to their room.
The culprits who were selected with Xiang Yu and others were always ashamed. They did not cooperate with the exiled immortal and pretended to be rebels, feeling embarrassed.
However, after seeing Xiang Yu and others tonight, they immediately looked glad: "Fortunately we didn't stand up, otherwise we would be the one who is embarrassed today."
"This Liu Ji is really interesting. He just pretends to be a rebel. Why did he take off his clothes?"
After Xiang Yu and his friends returned to the room, the first thing they did was to wear clothes, and they wore a lot of them, so that they could not be airtight. Even after wrapping them, they had to cover them with a quilt, covering them from head to toe.
It seems that only in this way can we feel safe.
Half an hour later, Xiang Yu suddenly jumped off the bed and walked out with big strides.
Xiang Xian asked with some concern: "General, where do you want to go?"
Xiang Yu said lightly: "I went to the toilet. I was blown by the cold wind for a while and felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach."
As soon as this said, several other people also felt it, so they brought toilet paper and went into the toilet with Xiang Yu.
Not far away, there were several aunts talking while pinching their waists.
One of them said: "I didn't believe they had diarrhea at first. Now it seems to be true. Look, aren't they going again?"
Another said: "It seems that this time is not urgent enough, they still have time to wear clothes."
The other two looked at her with disgust: "You shameless."
The old lady was open and honest: "Ha, what's the scary thing at our age? Besides, we are not noble ladies in the city, just poor women in the countryside. How can we pay so much attention? I am following the call of the exiled immortal. Women should also show up in public and not be too reserved."
The other two people were a little puzzled: It is naturally good for the banished immortal to show up. Why did he become so shameless when he came to you?
…………
The next day, the sun was shining and the wind was bright. Everyone in Shangjun Villa, along with the craftsmen, scholars, and employers, were called to the martial arts performance venue.
They were arranged neatly in the martial arts field. Li Shui, Li Xin, Li Ji, Xianglizhu and others stood on the steps of the stands and looked down at them.
In order to show respect to His Majesty, the highest level of the stands was left. No one was allowed to go up unless the emperor.
Li Ji stood on the second floor, holding an iron trumpet in his hand, and shouted: "Do you know, why are you asking you to come today?"
Everyone in Shangjun's villa shook their heads repeatedly.
Li Ji said loudly: "I asked you to come today because the assassin entered Shangjun Villa last night. The guards in the mansion were arrested all night and found nothing. They were stupid, incompetent, and were very humiliated!"
Li Ji scolded loudly. The guards of Shangjun's villa all lowered their heads in shame.
Li Ji looked at them with a deep face: "Your skills are related to the safety of the banished immortals and the safety of countless women and children in Shangjun Villa. Do you want them to be killed by the thief? Do you want to lose your loved ones but don't know who the thief is?"
The guards shook their heads.
Li Ji said loudly: "From now on, everyone will be alert. Fortunately, no one was injured last night, otherwise, you will have a lifelong conscience."
The guards nodded with fear.
Many people thought silently in their hearts: From now on, they must patrol carefully. If there is any disturbance, check it immediately and never be lazy anymore.
Li Ji called out several captains and asked them to find a way to immediately plan the scope of the patrol of the guards, and how to deal with it once the situation occurs. Never rush around like last night.
These captains nodded vigorously.
After Li Ji finished scolding him, Li Shui took the trumpet and said with a smile: "Don't be discouraged, either. The guards of Shangjun's villa are all loyal. I see this immortal."
"I know that last night was an accident, not everyone was slacking off. The so-called mistakes of a person, the horse has a leak. It is understandable."
After hearing this, the guards were moved to tears.
It almost caused a disaster last night, but the exiled immortal was so tolerant and even tried hard to help them find excuses for their dereliction of duty.
Many guards raised their hands and shouted in tears: "Defend the banished immortal to the death."
Li Shui waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's not to defend me, it's to defend Shangjun Villa. This yard is our common home."
Not only the guards burst into tears, but the craftsmen present were also moved. They shouted: "Defend our home."
Li Xin and Aorizhu next to him looked at each other, and both showed a helpless smile.
Li Ji was watching this scene happily beside him.
Li Xin whispered to him: "Silly nephew. You are used as a gun by this shameless person. You have become a bad person and scolded these craftsmen so hard that they can't raise their heads. He turns around and sells them well in exchange for the loyalty of these people."
Li Ji smiled and said, "I know. But...what is wrong? Anyway, I'm not from Shangjun Villa."
Li Xin was stunned for a moment, then said, "Your words make some sense."
Li Shui comforted the guards of Shangjun Villa for a while, and then said with a smile: "Last night, there were not no heroes. At least four people performed very well, and they could be called the heroes of our Shangjun Villa."
As soon as this was said, the martial arts arena was silent, and everyone was a little nervous, thinking that the exiled immortal was talking about himself. But if I think about it carefully, it seemed that I didn't do anything to show my face yesterday.
Finally, Li Shui revealed the answer: "Last night, there were four heroes. They were obviously unwell and were in a hurry to go to the toilet. They didn't even have time to wear clothes, but they brought their swords."
"Because they knew that they were the guards of Shangjun Villa, and their duty was to defend the place. Therefore, whether they were eating, sleeping, or going to the toilet, they would never leave their swords."
"Although they did not catch the thief, their spirit was particularly admired by me. If everyone could be like these four heroes, then my Shangjun Villa would be as solid as a god."
As soon as this statement was said, Xiang Yu and others hated him so much that they felt itchy. What happened last night was embarrassing enough. Huai Guzi had to say that this was a public execution?
Those who met Xiang Yu last night nodded, thinking that they deserved the title of hero.
After all, if you change yourself, if you have diarrhea, you may choose clothes instead of swords.
Alas, there is still a big gap in the realm.
As for those who didn't know, they were asking people about what happened last night.
Soon, Xiang Yu and others' heroic figures were quickly discovered by everyone. Many people even ran to Xiang Yu and others and took a closer look.
This difficult conference was finally over until lunch time.
Xiang Yu and his men went back with their faces covered.
After lunch, Xiang Yu said in a deep voice: "Tonight, I will kill Huaiguzi and avenge my previous shame."
The children of Xiang nodded vigorously.
Xiang Yu said, "You go and check Huai Guzi's whereabouts and don't relax for a moment."
After experiencing the shame of the morning, Xiang Yu no longer planned to go out. He wanted to wait until dark before taking action.
In fact, the other people didn't want to show up, but they were not easy to disobey Xiang Yu's orders, so they could only be ashamed of being outside.
After walking out of the room, the Xiang family members met many people, and these people pointed at them and cast admiration.
But the Xiang family's children always feel that there are other things mixed in these admiring gazes.
The Xiang family members felt that when everyone looked at them, there was a faint smile on their lips... This was really tormenting.
After finally getting dark, they saw Huai Guzi enter their bedroom with their own eyes and never come out again.
Afterwards, Xiang Xian stayed nearby, and the other two Xiang families quickly reported to Xiang Yu.
After Xiang Yu received the news, he followed without saying a word with his sword.
He was already impatient to kill Huai Guzi.
