In Love With My Fierce Farming Wife!

Chapter 639: Chapter 621: Plan_1

The raging fire outside continued unrelentingly, and the assassination attempt, despite repeated failures, showed signs of resurgence instead of diminishing!

His Majesty was pacing back and forth in the house, looking deeply worried.

"Because of my arrival, this Buddhist pure land has been stained with countless lives and shed innocent blood! All these are my faults!" His Majesty exclaimed with deep regret.

More than ten people gathered inside the house, surrounding His Majesty protectively in the center.

One of them, with an unusually hoarse voice, tried to comfort him.

"Your Majesty, do not blame yourself. These people are all traitors and deserve to die! Hopefully, this sacred Buddhist land can purify their sinful souls, releasing them from suffering and rebirth!"

"But this massacre ultimately began because of me..."

His Majesty was deeply agonized!

But before he could finish his sigh, a sudden explosion came from above!

Then, the roof was blown open, and the next moment, several black shadows descended from the sky! Several guards rushed forward to block them!

But that was not the end!

From beneath their feet came more strange noises!

As everyone was shocked, the ground suddenly opened up a hole! By the time everyone understood that someone had tunneled in, they rushed forward to stab, with little effect, as the hole quickly grew large enough for a person to crawl out. This put the surrounding guards in a highly precarious position, forcing them to fight desperately!

Qin Yi, who was blocking the entrance, was well aware of the commotion behind him, but he was too preoccupied to respond. Moreover, he had already arranged for people to guard His Majesty, so he didn’t turn around.

However, when the commotion inside seemed to worsen, he finally found a moment to glance back, causing his movement to falter slightly. He narrowly avoided a stab, but a bloody gash was left on his shoulder!

He immediately thrust his sword forward, finally killing his opponent. However, more assassins were already lunging at him.

Suddenly, the window on the side collapsed with a loud crash!

Several black shadows rushed in quickly.

With the initial onslaught of assassins who had dropped in from above and the ground, many guards had already been dispatched. Now with Eunuch Wu, who didn’t know martial arts, present, and more attackers coming from the window, the few remaining guards were overwhelmed!

An assassin who had been hiding in the crowd suddenly saw an opportunity!

Seizing the moment, he leaped forward, aiming a knife at His Majesty’s heart...

Unexpectedly, a long spear appeared from the side, perfectly blocking his attack! The recoiling force from his arm numbed his arm, almost causing him to lose grip on his knife.

He quickly looked up, only to see a face that made him turn pale!

"You, how are you still alive?"

No wonder he turned pale. This man was none other than the General Zhen Guo, Ye Han, who everyone had seen being put into a coffin and buried in a grave chosen personally by His Majesty. His fame was at its peak!

"Why can’t I be alive?"

With his words, he swung his long spear, creating a whirlwind!

The assassin showed a sudden realization, "Ah! I understand, all these were your plots, you planned to draw the snake out of the hole from the start, didn’t you?"

Ye Han laughed coldly, his long spear dancing, creating beautiful patterns, "You’re indeed smart, but unfortunately, you realized too late!"

With a quick thrust, he impaled the assassin through the chest.

Perhaps Ye Han’s unexpected appearance had disrupted the assassins, causing them to lose control of their momentum. Their footwork and gestures became disorderly, and they were quickly dispatched by the guards!

The house fell silent all at once.

Even those who had been obstructing Qin Yi miraculously retreated, giving everyone a moment of respite.

Qin Yi leaned heavily against the door, wiping his face with his hand. Upon seeing his blood-covered hand, he immediately killed the idea.

"Ye Aiqing’s skills are indeed remarkable! Beloved Official Qin is also extremely brave, truly embodying the spirit of ’one man holding the pass against ten thousand enemies!"

His Majesty couldn’t help giving them a thumbs-up, revealing a rare smile for the night.

Back then, Ye Han, due to obstructing the pursuers and escorting Qin Yi and Su Pan’er away, was critically wounded!

If it weren’t for Su Pan’er using the pretense of severe illness to hide in the house and expend all her energy to save him over three days and nights, Ye Han would have been claimed by Yama.

Remember, when Ye Han was retrieved from the hands of the enemy, he was riddled with arrows, like a hedgehog, barely holding on for dear life, barely breathing.

Any doctor would have deemed him beyond saving!

But luckily, he ran into Su Pan’er!

And that rascal pig!

Which managed to keep Ye Han alive long enough for Su Pan’er to buy precious time to treat him! Even so, Ye Han had to spend several months recovering.

As soon as he got better, His Majesty couldn’t wait to strike!

Both Ye Han and Qin Yi had been holding their breath, swearing to avenge the one who sent Ye Han to the brink of death in the Underworld.

However, they couldn’t just go out and kill someone without reason, which led to the plan of this day!

"Your Majesty flatters us, this is but Ye Han’s duty!"

Ye Han said, bowing towards His Majesty, his face showing no trace of emotion.

Qin Yi also hurriedly expressed his gratitude, "It’s my honor to be able to contribute to His Majesty’s cause, and it’s beyond flattering!"

"Ah! Ye Aiqing, Qin Aiqing, your contributions are well noted. Once this matter is resolved, I will heavily reward you and use it to honor The Three Armies!" His Majesty generously declared.

At this, everyone relaxed.

However, Ye Han remained as serious as ever, and he suddenly knelt on one knee before His Majesty, raising his head to gaze into His Majesty’s eyes.

"Your Majesty! I have one thing to ask of you!"

"Oh? You really have something to request? This is surprising!" His Majesty looked surprised. Ye Han had never asked for anything in all these years, and now he was using the word ’request’, wouldn’t it surprise the Emperor?

His Majesty looked Ye Han up and down and broke into hearty laughter. "Good! Just say it; even if I have to sell my pots and pans, I will definitely satisfy your request."

"This request does not require Your Majesty to use any resources from the national treasury."

Ye Han knelt on the ground, his voice firm, "Your Majesty, I’ve heard that the Jun Family has an unmarried, legitimate daughter named Ruoxue who is beautiful, gentle, virtuous, and gracious. The moment I saw her, I fell in love, and I couldn’t forget her from that moment. I want to ask Your Majesty for permission to marry this girl from the Jun family, I look forward to Your Majesty’s approval!"

After saying his piece, Ye Han kneeled down repeatedly, not looking up.
