In the middle of the day, Yu Nianniang and the others left the Tianhe Tea House, the carriage stopped outside the Lantern Festival, Yu Nianniang didn't want to walk, but fortunately, Chi Langyi had already prepared two sedan chairs. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The two got into the sedan chair one after the other and headed out.

The hour is not early, and there are fewer and fewer people at the lantern festival, and some stall owners on the street have already closed their stalls, and the more they go out, there are very few people coming and going on the street.

Yu Nianniang sat in the sedan chair and tiptoed, making her feel drowsy, and after a while, she began to knock her eyelids up. The noisy street gradually calmed down, and the sound of walking on the street could be heard, Yu Nianniang gradually closed her eyes, and suddenly someone shouted: "Stop!" Then there was a thud, with the aftermath of something trembling.

Yu Nianniang was startled, opened her eyes, and then saw that the curtain of the Tongling sedan chair was half lifted, and an arrow feather was just inserted into the window of the sedan chair, and the tail was trembling slightly.

Yu Nianniang's eyes froze.

Wucai and Sun's mother had different reactions.

Mother Sun was so frightened that her face turned white, and Wucai was obviously taken aback, and soon she drew out her sword and stood next to the sedan chair, Eleven and Xiao Jiu in front, as well as a few guards, vigilantly protected Yu Nianniang and Chi Langyi behind. And the hell was fighting with a masked man.

Yu Nianniang lifted the curtain, and Chi Langyi was standing in front of her, coldly looking at the masked man who was fighting with the earth.

If there is really an attack, it will be difficult for her to escape by sitting in a sedan chair. So, Yu Nianniang got out of the sedan chair, and before she could ask what was going on, she didn't know where seven or eight masked people rushed out to surround a few people.

Eleven, Xiao Jiu, Wucai and the others all looked solemn, their eyes were cold and opposite to the masked man, and the streets were suddenly filled with a tense and dangerous atmosphere.

Eleven stared at the masked leader tightly, trying to find familiarity in his eyes, but there was nothing, and he shouted with a serious face, "Who are you?" The Son of Heaven dares to be so arrogant, do you know whose path is in the way? ”

No one answered, and a masked man looked at one of them.

This is the leader of the masked man, the leader of the masked man has a cold look in his eyes, sweeping over Yu Nianniang and Chi Langyi, his dark eyes gradually turned bloody, his eyes were full of killing intent, and he coldly ordered: "Kill!" ”

Yu Nianniang stood behind Chi Langyi and carefully observed the masked people in front of her, and it could be seen from the hesitation of the masked people just now that these people probably knew them and knew their identities. dared to assassinate like this, proving that the person behind it was either not simple, or was dying.

Chi Langyi's face was indifferent, and his eyes, which were as calm as a lake just now, were cold, bursting out with a terrifying murderous aura. The hand touched his waist, flicked it slightly, and the belt loosened, and then he pulled it along his waist, and a soft sword appeared in his hand, and at the same time, the black-clothed people who surrounded everyone also began to move, and they all raised their swords and stabbed at them.

The long sword, glowing with cold light, approached Yu Nianniang with a murderous aura.

The colorful eyes quickly pulled Yu Nianniang back, raised the sword to block it, but the soft sword wrapped around the long sword first, Chi Langyi reversed it in his hand, and with a slight pull, the long sword broke away from the masked man and flew to the side of the ground.

Eleven next to him stabbed at the masked man's chest with a very coordinated sword, the sharp sword pierced through the skin and pierced into the flesh and bones, rubbing against the flesh and bones with a snorting sound, the masked man suddenly felt a pain like grinding flesh, his heart churned, a mouthful of old blood sprayed far away, and the blood in his chest flowed, wetting the robe at his feet.

Yu Nianniang looked at the soft sword in Chi Langyi's hand in surprise, but she didn't expect this person to even have a soft sword!

Ning Anhou led his troops into battle to kill the enemy, resist the Turks, and defend the country, which was supported by many people. It is also opposed by many people because of their ambitions and different beliefs. However, Ning'an Houfu has always done its own thing, because he is a loyal minister and a good general, and he is valued by the emperor, which has fueled the arrogance of Ning'an Houfu and made some people dissatisfied.

Therefore, Ning'an Houfu, including Chi Langyi, has many enemies.

Therefore, Yu Nianniang thought that this assassination should be fought against Chi Langyi, but Tong Shiming was still in prison, and Concubine Tong was also in the cold palace, so it seemed unlikely that someone would be sent to assassinate Chi Langyi. The eldest prince has been officially canonized as the crown prince, and there is no point in assassinating Chi Langyi.

Soon, Yu Nianniang knew that she had guessed wrong, because these masked people began to look at what seemed to be going towards Chi Langyi, and after being repelled by Chi Langyi and Eleven and others, the masked leader made a gesture, and the masked man no longer used roundabout tactics and pounced directly on Yu Nianniang, if it weren't for Chi Langyi standing in front of her all the time, and Eleven, Xiao Jiu and Disha, I'm afraid she would be more than lucky.

Afterwards, thinking of this, not to mention Mother Sun and others, even Yu Nianniang was a little afraid. Fortunately, she didn't go to the lantern festival alone.

The next day, the emperor was furious at the court meeting, and someone at the feet of the Son of Heaven dared to assassinate the Heavenly Master and a prince of Houfu, which was so bold that the emperor immediately handed over the case to the Criminal Department for handling, demanding: "...... I must find out who these people really are, catch the assassin, and ask for clarification. ”

Except for the masked leader, everyone else has been ambushed!

"Yes." The waiter of the criminal department said.

Then the emperor looked at Chi Langyi, his face was like frost: "As the commander of Captain Jin Wu and the supervisor of the Northern Army, you can't even protect the safety of the Lantern Festival, and you are trapped in yourself, and the Heavenly Master is in danger, can you be guilty?" ”

The safety and security of the Shangyuan Festival are not under the control of Captain Jin Wu at all, and it is not the turn of the Northern Army.

Someone looked surprised.

Chi Langyi knelt down and said expressionlessly: "The minister is guilty, please punish the emperor." Not a word of justification.

Only then did the emperor show a slightly satisfied expression, and he said coldly: "Although the security and safety of the Shangyuan Festival are not under the control of Jin Weiwu, Ning An Hou Shizi, as a courtier, as the commander of Jin Wuwei, and the supervision of the Northern Army, still has the responsibility to contribute to the safety of the court and the capital. The carelessness caused a very bad impact, and Ning An is now fined for half a year, and his post as the supervisor of the Northern Army is revoked. It was changed to Wei Qiyu, the captain of the Yue Cavalry. ”

A low voice suddenly sounded in the hall, and Chi Langyi knelt on the ground without changing his face, kowtowing and thanking.

This matter soon spread throughout the capital, and everyone knew that it was anger.

Then, within two days, news came from the northwest that the winter was about to pass, and the tribes in the northwest grassland were not aware of the situation, and they had not stopped fighting with each other. Because of the whole winter, the stored food is almost running out. The tribes began to fight for territory and rob the caravans. At the same time, in the face of the weakened Turks, other tribes began to fight their ideas. However, the Turks have always been ruthless and unwilling to be annexed, and began to look for other tribes to cooperate, aiming at the Celestial Empire.

It's easy to fight a serious battle, but it's the most annoying, petty fights, and all kinds of sneak attacks.

Therefore, the emperor immediately ordered Ning Anhou, who was on vacation in the capital, to immediately set off to return to the northwest camp, and at the same time sent Zhao Yun, a squire of the original military department, to the northwest camp as a supervisor, and worked together with An Ninghou to fight the Turks.

The Zhao clan has two branches, Zhao Yun and Zhao Yi, both of whom are of the same clan but have different branches. Zhao Yun is the chief, who was originally a squire in the military department, and has just been promoted to the Northwest Supervisor. And Zhao Yiyuan was a Hanlin attendant and was promoted to a cabinet attendant.
