Wang Wu hurried back to the upper study with a solemn face. Immediately after the pen "Fun" pavilion www.biquge.info Xiao Luo hurried to the back door, and then he went to the barracks alone and took out the key to open the palace gate, and went to Donghua Gate.

At this time, Wang Lu and Uncle Luo had also come to the palace.

In a dark corner, a nervous-looking young man waited.

"How's it going?"

Uncle Luo smiled: "It's okay, the two little rabbit cubs didn't believe it at first, hmph, and in the end they weren't obedient!"

Wang Lu also smiled lightly, but his face was a little pale, obviously because the onset of the illness just now made him very uncomfortable.

When the young man heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then the whole person fell to the ground on one knee: "I thank you two for my benefactor! After this incident, no matter how Emperor Tang punishes, I will bear it with all my might......

Wang Lu hurriedly supported the young man: "Don't be like this, the benefactor is also our benefactor! Although I, Wang Lu, have never done anything big in my life, the only thing I know is gratitude." The benefactor saved the life of my little cub, then the life of our family is the benefactor!

"Yes!"

The young man looked at the two middle-aged men in front of him and nodded excitedly.

Now it's time to wait for the old man.

……

The fifth road of Chang'an.

The executive looked at the brighter and brighter night, and said in a deep voice: "Action!"

"Yes!"

It is not difficult to find that those people next to the executive's family have appeared in all corners of Chang'an in the past ten days, visited many people in Chang'an, and done many things that are beneficial to Chen Ce's reputation!

And everything, right today!

……

The sky is gradually brightening, as if the black curtain in the sky has been revealed, and Chang'an, which was originally pitch black and does not see the five fingers, can now faintly see the dark shadows of those houses and pavilions, standing vaguely on both sides of the street.

The wind was blowing, and an unknown voice sounded on a certain platform. In the silence of the night, it was unusually clear. The sound was clear, like a rat running, and like someone was hiding there.

The time is approaching.

On the official platform of the fourth road of Chang'an, the tall guard looked at the sky and said in a deep voice: "Come, mention, criminal official Chen Ce!"

His name is Zhou Yong, and he is the commander of the palace guards, and he is a four-rank military general. Today's task is to protect the official platform, and everything on the platform. Don't let Chen Ce's execution be blocked in any way, and those who violate it will be killed!

On his armor, there was also a sword tied to it, which was given to him by Emperor Tang himself last night.

Those who hold the sword of Shang Fang, below the third grade, have the right to cut first and then play!

He looked at the gradually brightening sky, and his face became heavier and heavier. The identity of the person to be executed today is too big, and the crime is too ruthless, even he, the four-rank commander, is a little trembling. At the same time, his face gradually became gloomy, as he remembered some words from the previous day and some things to do next.

He's nervous!

Zhou Yong looked at the darkness in the distance and frowned: "Why haven't you arrived yet?" Luoguantai and the prison are actually not far apart, it stands to reason that the guards should have come back with the prisoners a long time ago, why haven't they arrived, is it possible......

Indeed, something happened!

When the guards brought Chen Ce up from the bottom of the prison, the people who came out of nowhere surrounded them, blocking their way forward.

Originally, it was normal to be blocked, and according to past experience, as long as you took out your weapons and cleared the way. They are royal guards, so why can't they help a few civilians?

Only this time, it's different. Because Chen Ce, who was brought up by them, was no longer the dashing middle-aged Confucian he used to be, but a crippled man with wounds all over his body.

Chen Ce's fingers had been cut off one by one, and there were still coagulated blood stains on them. His feet twisted strangely, apparently broken, and he was now able to stand thanks to the guards next to him. The clothes on the body are dark red as a whole, with all kinds of stench, which makes people shudder!

The only intact part of his body can only be regarded as his face, there are no obvious wounds, only a few bruises, he barely opened his eyes, saw the people around him, the corners of his lips moved, as if he wanted to say a few words.

The moment they came out of the prison, the people were shocked and angry, and they all surrounded them, and all kinds of angry scolding came out, and even some kept doing things to the guards.

But the guards couldn't help it, and they didn't dare to fight back. In fact, when they saw Chen Ce at the bottom of the prison, they knew that something was wrong. Even if he is a prisoner, he was also a dignified prime minister before, and the characters who talk to His Majesty have to be given at least dignity, not to mention that His Majesty did not say that he would be tortured to extract confessions, how could he be tortured like this!

But they also know that the chief prisoner of the prison is the Lin family, and what grievances the Lin family has with Chen Ce, I believe that everyone in Chang'an knows it, so it is not surprising. They are just small guards, and the only thing they can do is to carefully bring Chen Ce up, which can be regarded as the last respect for the former prime minister.

And as a result, as expected, the people were outraged. In the midst of the pushing, pushing and shouting, it was difficult to move an inch, and the people cursed the officials and even His Majesty in the most vicious language, but they were helpless.

"Be careful!"

Someone shouted, and in the dark shadows not far away, several cold arrows suddenly shot out. The arrows were swift, and in the blink of an eye, one of them plunged into the chest of one of the guards, who bled to death on the spot.

The captain of the guard's face changed: "The arrow is poisonous!" and immediately drew his blade and looked around vigilantly.

The guards were all like this, and the people immediately stopped talking, and when they saw that one of the guards was dead, they all nervously retreated.

The captain of the guard shouted in a low voice: "Hurry up, go to the official platform! Be careful!"

"Yes!"

A large group of people walked forward with their blades, turning back three times at a time, warning everything around them.

Suddenly, a cold wind arose.

A dazzling light flashed, and five or six dark figures jumped from the rooftops beside the avenue.

Between the swords and swords, he killed the group of guards.

The guards were not afraid, and fought with the Assassins with their blades. Among them, the captain of the guard took the lead, and a standard steel knife made him superb, and it seemed that he had entered the second realm of martial arts.

Leaving two guards vigilantly by Chen Ce's side, it was clear that the target of this group of assassins was the former prime minister.

Chen Ce groaned lowly, the pain in his body making it difficult for him to open his eyes. But he also knew that something bad was happening around him, and that an assassin had come to save him, but he was very confused and helpless. Because whether it succeeds or not, if something like this happens, it is really a cut in two with His Majesty.

Suddenly, another cold arrow shot out of the darkness, killing one of the guards again.

The rest of the guards were all cold, and the movements in their hands were not very sensitive. After all, there is such an archer around who is peeping, and no one dares to despise the arrows.

"Up!"

The Assassins had no worries, and the leader shouted, his movements more ferocious than before, and his swords deadly.

For a while, many of the guards were injured and used for two purposes, which was still relatively difficult for these Ouchi guards, who were barely ordinary masters.

"Humph!"

A cold snort like thunder rang out.

"Poof!"

Immediately after, a corpse suddenly threw out of the roof next to the avenue. The corpse was also dressed in black, with an arrow bag hanging from its back, and there were exactly two missing arrows in the quiver, so it seemed that it should be the archer hiding in the shadows.

Sure enough, the moment the body was thrown, the assassins panicked. Their strength is actually only between them and this group of guards, and the reason why they can be suppressed is because of the deterrence of archers, but now......

With a wave of the leader's hand, the assassin began to retreat, and he looked around and said coldly, "Who is it?"

No one answered him, only a tall figure also jumped from the roof, the steel knife in his hand stained with blood, and it was glowing with cold light. He was wearing a blue-gray armor and a magnificent sword hanging from his waist, which was majestic and imposing.

The person who came was Zhou Yong, the leader of Zhou.

He didn't say anything, and at the moment he came down, he had already killed the back of his knife, and at the same time shouted in his mouth: "Everyone, there is no forgiveness for killing!"

"Yes!"

The guards should come down.

In less than half a cup of tea, all the Assassins fell to the ground. Zhou Yong withdrew the steel knife and said coldly: "Xiao Wang, Xiao Tong, stay and dispose of the corpse." Others, with criminals, go to the official platform. ”

"Yes!"

The two guards took Chen Ce's hand and walked forward again.

At this time, the people surrounded them again and surrounded the guards, preventing them from taking Chen Ce away.

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Yong said angrily, he had long thought that this execution would be very troublesome, after all, the criminal was the previous prime minister, and his influence was far greater than that of the previous petty corrupt officials. But he never thought that he hadn't arrived at the official platform yet, and as soon as he came out of the prison, he was stopped like this by the people, so if he really arrived at the execution ground?

"Chen Xiang is wronged!"

"You dog officials, frame Zhongliang!"

"Dog officials, you have been beaten into tricks and abused lynching!"

"Lao Tzu fought with you!"

All kinds of angry scolding came into Zhou Yong's ears, he looked at Chen Ce, the wound on his body was not even shivering, and he secretly scolded: "The Lin family is too bold!"

But no matter what, now that he is the main person in charge, he still has to stand up.

"Presumptuous! This is the death penalty set by His Majesty himself, where did the grievances come from, you people are impatient, dare to stop it, there will be no forgiveness!"

"Rub!"

Zhou Yong pulled out the knife again and said coldly. The blood stains of the assassin on the blade had not yet dried, and they were falling to the ground with a thick smell of blood.

The guards did the same, drawing their swords and carrying them at their sides. For a time, heavy blood paved this small street. The people kept retreating, and some even vomited directly.

"You guards, is this how your murder weapon is aimed at innocent people! No wonder the prime minister will be framed by you like this, you dog officials, there is no distinction between black and white, right and wrong, you are a bunch of beasts!"

Suddenly, a voice came from the crowd, but there were too many people present, but they couldn't tell where the voice came from.

As soon as these words came out, the people who had flinched a little just now suddenly surrounded them again. This time they had the confidence.

"That's right!"

"Let go of the prime minister, he is wronged!"

"Damn,, I hugged you when you were a child, and now you dare to point a knife at me, you have a kind of stabbing me to death, I see how you have the face to see your dead father!"

"Son, come back quickly, we don't deserve this guard! Work for this group of dog officials, even if we starve to death, we don't want their silver!"

The sound is getting louder and louder. The people were furious, but the guards gradually laid down their weapons, because they really couldn't help it.

Although Chang'an City is large, the largest group of people are still poor. And in Chang'an City, all the guards, catchers, miscellaneous servants, soldiers, and other groups are also ordinary people, and those children of the family and the descendants of officials were born to be officials. For example, the Ouchi guards in the palace, among them are three commanders, ten chief guards, and more than hundreds of guards, among which the commander and the chief of the guard are all descendants of family officials, hereditary, and only those ordinary guards who do the hardest and dirtiest work are what the people can fight for.

So now, when a large crowd of people comes around, there are always a few people who are related to the guards, and how dare they do it in such a situation?

Zhou Yong looked at this group of guards coldly, trembling with anger, and said angrily: "Diao Min, waste!

Immediately afterwards, he rushed into the crowd, fanned several people and guards, and flew towards the official platform with Chen Ce in his hand. After a few ups and downs, it disappeared from everyone's sight like a big bird.
