Chapter 1824 Assassination
Just as Lin Tian was pondering, there was a sudden sound of an arrow breaking through the air in his ears, he immediately raised his eyebrows, and looked in the direction where the arrow was flying, only to see a group of people blocking in front, all dressed in black and wearing black masks, and they were all holding bows and arrows in their hands, shooting at Li Shimin, obviously the legendary assassin.
"This script is a bit old. Lin Tian rolled his eyes, he didn't expect that someone like Li Shimin would want to assassinate him, just think about it, it should be the so-called remnants of the royal family of the previous dynasty, or the heir of the brother killed by Li Shimin's Xuanwu Gate at that time? Of course, Li Shimin told him about this matter, and Lin Tian didn't think there was anything.
After all, the throne naturally needs capable people to take on it, Li Shimin has this ability, so it is normal for him to be in charge, but he has no intention of making a move, but stands aside, such a group of assassins, if Li Shimin himself does not have the ability to solve it, then the battlefield for many years can be regarded as fighting to the dog.
"Who are you waiting for, you actually dare to assassinate Your Majesty!" The two guards beside Li Shimin quickly stood up and scattered this majestic arrow with internal force, and at the same time looked at this group of assassins with surprise in their eyes, and they found that this group of assassins were actually all martial artists of the ninth stage of the martial arts!
This made them feel very troublesome and tricky all of a sudden, although they were also martial artists of the same level, but compared to the other party's full ten, there were only two of them, even if they had followed His Majesty's side over the years and received the guidance of those monks in the palace, but it was not possible for them to be able to defeat five with one.
All of a sudden, they were in a predicament, looking at Lin Tian with a distressed gaze, but found that he didn't have the slightest intention of making a move, obviously to test his strength, he gritted his teeth and pulled out his weapon at the moment, these assassins obviously wanted to hurt His Majesty, they definitely couldn't let them succeed!
"Kill your people!" The leader of the assassins said in a cold voice, and at the same time glanced at Lin Tian and the other four, and found that Lin Tian did not have the slightest breath in his body, thinking that he should be an ordinary person, and then he looked at Li Shimin, and sneered: "Li Shimin, you are so bold, you dare to run out!"
As one of the confidants of the crown prince Li Jiancheng, he has been waiting for this opportunity for too long, and now that he has finally waited for Li Shimin to leave the palace, of course he will not give up, so after learning where Li Shimin went, he decisively rushed with his subordinates, wanting to kill Li Shimin on the way!
In this case, then the orphan of the prince has a chance to become the emperor, after all, now Li Shimin has just ascended the throne, the queen has not had time to stand, and he has been fighting in the north and south all the year round, and he has no children under his knees, so naturally there can be no descendants, kill Li Shimin now, then the person who inherits the unification is the heir of the prince, which is one of the reasons why he wants to assassinate Li Shimin.
The first is to avenge the deceased prince, because in his opinion, Li Shimin killed his brother and father just for the throne, and the second is for the sake of the prince's orphans.
As the prince's henchman, no matter what, he couldn't watch the prince's only descendant be killed, so he planned for a long time, just waiting for an opportunity to kill Li Shimin, as long as Li Shimin died, then no one would deal with the prince's orphans, and he could also smoothly ascend to the throne and become the emperor of the Tang Dynasty!
"Hmph!" Li Shimin snorted heavily, he didn't have any panic at the moment of the enemy, and it could even be said that he was extremely calm, just like the group of people in front of him was not an enemy, but a group of sheep, it didn't matter if Lin Tian couldn't make a move, and at the same time, he also wanted Lin Tian to see that he was not a soft persimmon and had enough courage.
Li Shimin knows very well how to behave as an emperor in times of crisis, so as to be able to get maximum security, he knows very well who these people are, they are nothing more than his dead eldest brother's henchmen, he has been looking for it, but unfortunately although he has found a batch, there are still some fish that have slipped through the net.
Now these people jump out by themselves, it is also a good thing for him, after all, the knife is easy to dodge and the arrow is difficult to prevent, he went out of the palace this time, and there is also such a thought, he wants to find out all these bad worms, and when the time comes, they will all be killed, so as to prevent future troubles, and there is no one who can become an emperor.
Li Shimin was able to become the emperor, which shows how his mental skills are, after a few years of imperial career, his imperial mental skills are even more freewheeling, so taking this opportunity to go out of the palace to find Lin Tian, he also let people spread the news, so that these people who have been looking for an opportunity to assassinate him take the initiative to jump out and seek destruction.
Of course, this news is only circulating in the imperial capital, Li Shimin is not stupid, he knows very well that once this news comes out of the high-level of the imperial capital, then I am afraid that there will be a steady stream of people to assassinate him, and then it will be too much to deal with these people, after all, not everyone wants peace in the world, and some people are only to the point of harming the common people.
"I've been waiting for you for a long time. Li Shimin sneered, looking at the leader of this group of black-clothed people, he touched the jade wrench in his hand, this is the only jade wrench in his hand as the monarch of the Tang Dynasty, and he also snatched it from his brother's hand: "It's a pity that I haven't been able to find a chance, it's better for you to jump out by yourself, save me from looking for them one by one." ”
"When you die, you dare to be arrogant!" The leader of the men in black who took the lead watched Li Shimin play with the jade wrench in his hand, and the hatred in his eyes became more and more intense, a few years ago, this jade wrench was worn on the prince's hand, and it was the damn dog emperor in front of him who killed the prince and snatched it!
The leader of the black-clothed men glared at Li Shimin angrily, eager to kill this damn dog emperor with his eyes to avenge the crown prince: "Do you think that just by relying on the three of you and this ordinary person, you can withstand the martial artists of the ninth stage of our ten martial artists? Li Shimin, are you stupid to be the emperor? Forget about fighting!"
"Of course not. Li Shimin smiled slightly, and looked at the leader of the black-clothed men lightly, and the mockery in his eyes became more and more intense: "Since I dare to spread this news, I am naturally prepared, how can I give you a chance to threaten me? You still think too much." ”
"What?!" The leader of the black-clothed man who took the lead was startled, and looked at Li Shimin with a gloomy expression, and then he turned his eyes and sneered: "Sure enough, it is not a loss that he is the second prince who can create a piece of the world for Taizu, and he knows the thirty-six plans by heart, but do you think this is useful? Li Shimin, you will definitely die today, and no one can save you!"
"Huh. Li Shimin smiled indifferently, his expression was indescribably calm, not at all like pretending: "I have long guessed that there will be remnants of the founding of the party left, and this time out of the palace is also my arrangement, where do you think your news came from, naturally I let the eldest grandson Wuji spread it, just to lure you out." ”
"Originally, I was about to be disappointed, I thought you shouldn't dare to appear, but I didn't expect you to come, since you came, then leave your life behind, when I swept the world back then, you were just a country man, how do you know my horror?
"Hmph!" The leader of the men in black snorted coldly, no longer talking nonsense with Li Shimin, he waved his hand at the moment, shouted, and then rushed up in person: "Li Shimin, today is either you die or I die, the prince's enmity will never be forgotten, do you think that if you sit firmly on the throne of the country, we won't move you, go and die!"
The leader of the black-clothed man swung out a long sword in his hand, and quickly slashed at Li Shimin, as a martial artist of the ninth stage of the martial arts, he has absolute self-confidence, even if Li Shimin is already a master of the ninth stage of the martial arts, it is useless, he only needs to drag Li Shimin, and wait for his subordinates to deal with the two guards, then what greets Li Shimin is the final destruction!
Thinking that today he was finally able to slash the enemy and avenge the prince, the leader of the men in black felt relieved, as the prince's henchman, he had been by Li Jiancheng's side since he was a child, and he was completely brainwashed by Li Jiancheng, and he was only for Li Jiancheng's sake.
If it weren't for Li Shimin, then the current Li Jiancheng would already be the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, and he would have been a high-ranking official, no matter what it was for, he would have to kill Li Shimin today, avenge the prince, and also have an explanation for his good future, so he shot ruthlessly, made a move, and wanted to solve Li Shimin quickly!
But Li Shimin has been on the battlefield for a long time, before he became the emperor of the Tang Dynasty, he was also a fierce general in the southern and northern wars, and he paid a lot of sweat for the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, how could he be so easy to deal with, while taking the lead of the leader of the black-clothed man with a sword, Li Shimin dodged his sword move as soon as he retreated slightly, and at the same time took a folding fan in his hand and swept it towards his shoulder.
It is true that the leader of the leader of the black-clothed man is the ninth stage of the martial artist, but he Li Shimin is also the same, and he has the relationship of dragon qi protection, he is much stronger than the leader of the black-clothed man in front of him, plus before ascending to the throne, he had received the guidance of a monk, and he was already a half-step into the path of a monk, if it wasn't for the throne, maybe he was already a monk now.
Therefore, although the strength of the leader of the black-clothed man is very good, it is still not enough in Li Shimin's opinion, but it is impossible to solve him in a short time, after all, he is a person of the same realm, and he is not as demonic as Lin Tian, so naturally he can't solve people of the same level in an instant, let alone be invincible at the same level.
