Chapter 495: There are also not-so-icy royals
The tigers themselves were dressed in dark jeans and dark tight-fitting sweaters (the coats were kept in the lodging area), but they were not much worse than those who wore night clothes.
But they said that the people in the trees and the wall over there had been shot with an arrow, and whether they were killed or injured, those who were still alive knew that things would not go as smoothly as they thought. Even if they were still alive and wounded by arrows, they all resolutely jumped down and tried their best to join the battle in the courtyard. They will either die in this mission, or they will not be able to complete the mission and go back and be destroyed, anyway, they are all going to die, it is better to fight before they die. It's a pity that they didn't even have a chance to rush to the mission target and raise their weapons desperately, so they were stopped by some equally black figures and slashed wildly.
This time, you can't blame Xiaohu for their ruthlessness, if they don't kill these people, these people won't leave others alive. Xiaohu and some of the people who followed him knew this, so he was just like the people from the Western Xinjiang who committed the robbery in the first place, and he was not soft-hearted at all.
These people could not have imagined how the person who had just shot an arrow at them could stop in front of them so quickly. You can't fly so fast, right? Of course, these people are not cowards, and after a flash of confusion in their minds, they raise their swords and quickly meet them.
Originally, these people were injured, and the number of them was not as large as Xiaohu, which made Xiaohu and them not have a hard time fighting. After dealing with these people, they immediately plunged into the melee in the courtyard. The guards who were originally protecting the crown prince saw that these were a group of people in black clothes and black shirts, and thought they were the accomplices of those assassins. In despair, he was about to spurt blood, and even the prince thought that he could only be buried here today. Unexpectedly, some people later attacked those who wore night clothes and covered their faces without saying a word. And it's not soft at all. When those guards saw this scene, they all came to their senses, and their bodies were as excited as if they had been beaten with chicken blood, and they burst out with inexhaustible energy in an instant.
Liu Wenzhu outside was not idle, and they divided into several teams to guard the Quartet, so as not to have assassins take advantage of the chaos to escape. The people inside didn't let them stay for long, but after about half an hour, the clanging of weapons gradually stopped.
Meanwhile. The second girl at home suddenly woke up in her sleep. When I woke up, I couldn't remember what kind of nightmare I had.
However, she found out early the next morning. The harrier sent back a simple sentence: Xiaohu is injured, not light, in the capital.
Erya was in a cold sweat in an instant! How did he get to the capital? How can a good person get hurt?
couldn't take care of too much, Erya called Wen Chao, Wen Yue, and Qingzhu, and asked Sister-in-law Ding to pack up their clothes, quilts, and all the items they needed to use outside, and set off for the capital immediately.
On the road. Qingzhu, Wen Chao, and Wen Yue are not worried about their father (uncle). Anxiously asked Erya: "Mother!" Didn't Dad go to Uncle Daddy? Why is it in the capital, and you are still injured? ”
"Yes! Aunt! ”
The carriage that Er Ya rode in this time was an improved and lengthened carriage. The mother and son sat in the back with a nephew, and a coffee table was placed in the middle, which was still very spacious. Erya hugged Xiao Wenfan, leaned back on the back of the chair weakly, and shook his head: "I don't know either!" They didn't give me any more information, so that's why I'm going to take you there. See for yourself how it goes! It just so happens that you are also going to take next year's exam, so it is appropriate to go over now. ”
They also know that their mothers (aunts) are in a bad mood. I don't want to ask anymore. Erya was not worried about Xiaohu's situation, and every night when he stayed at the hotel, he had to release the letter harrier he was carrying out to pass the message. It wasn't until the eighth day that the harrier wrote back and said: Xiaohu has no physical problems, and it is completely fine to take care of it! The mother and son and Qingzhu showed their first smile when they left home.
After that, they were not so anxious and rushed wildly, and as soon as people were leisurely, they found more things.
"Auntie! You can see, how can there be several stagnant candidates in the inn? ”
Erya has been busy with her little people, and she really didn't pay attention to what Qingzhu said.
"Then you go and ask them what's going on? As a person who enters Beijing to take the exam, it is said that there should be no shortage of entanglements. ”
Although Qingzhu and Wenchao are also candidates who enter Beijing to take the exam, because they don't know the character of strangers, they usually don't take the initiative to talk to those people. It's just that in the past two days, I have always been able to see candidates begging to ask the passing caravan if they can take people to the capital, and I feel very surprised. He followed his aunt's meaning and asked a man who was still waiting for the caravan to go north: "This brother! Why don't you bring your own carriage from home? If you can't wait for a caravan that is willing to bring people, and isn't it going to miss next year's spring? ”
This lifter has been looking at Qingzhu and their group, but he saw that their two cars were full of ceremonies, and a big car also sat a family, and the most important thing was a woman. Therefore, he did not ask if he could take him, but now that he saw that the other party took the initiative to ask, he couldn't tell what he meant, so he truthfully told the reason: "Those of us who stayed in the middle of the road came from the carriage hired by the family. As a result, halfway to the road, there was a carriage that turned back in front, saying that the road was being repaired in front, and there were too many ditches and ditches, and people always had to push the cart, and when they encountered a big hurdle, they had to be carried by a few strong men. It was impossible for a single chariot to pass, and when our coachman heard this, he did not want to go any further, so he left us here to find a caravan to follow.
Alas! There are indeed a lot of caravans passing by, but the goods in people's cars are full, where is there a place for us to sit? ”
Several other candidates who were about to rush the exam also shook their heads anxiously and helplessly, and the desire for help in their eyes made Qingzhu feel uncomfortable.
The official roads near the north are all vying to be built, and Xiaohu has already sent a message back before this incident, asking their caravan to bring a few more thick and large wooden planks in the past, which is easy to use on the road. Of course, Erya also prepared two pieces to carry, so when he heard that the road ahead was not good, he did not have the trouble of frowning. It's just that these candidates can't bring it themselves, but they can't keep them waiting here. Erya asked Wen Chao to send a message back to the town to go to school, and asked those candidates in the school who wanted to participate in the Spring Festival to come over in advance and bring a few more empty carriages. Bring all these candidates who stay in the middle of the course. After making these arrangements, Qingzhu went to tell a few stranded candidates about their arrangements, telling them not to worry. In a few days, the Wang family convoy will come over and take them along the way.
The further north they went, the more roads were built, but they were well prepared, and they made it all the way. By the time we arrived in the capital, it was almost New Year's time, and Xiaohu's wounds had healed and new flesh had grown.
Finally seeing the little tiger like a dragon, Erya relaxed and tightened the string. Ask the question that I have been unable to figure out: "How did you come to the capital?" Still injured? ”
Xiaohu asked the three little ones and the others to go out, and then whispered to Erya: "I was Xiaolong who arranged to secretly follow the prince to send him to the capital safely, I thought Xiaolong was making a big fuss." Who would have thought that when he was in the courtyard on the outskirts of Beijing, someone really set fire to the prince and wanted to burn the prince to death. We saw that the situation was not right, and rushed over. There are still many people blocking the front yard at the courtyard wall and the gate. Looking at the momentum, I didn't intend to stay alive at all.
Alas! Speaking of which, I also memorized it myself, and I left after the person was saved! I'm it! It's a lot of trouble, so I have to help find out if there are Tibetans in other places in the courtyard. The result? I came across an Assassin lying under the wall dressed as a slave. I was also stupid, I didn't expect the assassin to change his clothes so quickly, and I thought it was really a slave of the other courtyard, so I went to pull him defenselessly. He stabbed me in the armpit with a dagger with his backhand, but fortunately I reacted quickly and was only stabbed by him about an inch deep. If only he had plunged his entire dagger capital into it. The doctor said that my life is difficult to save even if Hua Tuo is alive.
I didn't tell you the ins and outs of this in the message, and it was because the prince told us not to tell it. If this matter is poked out, I am afraid that the capital will be in chaos. ”
Erya frowned so much that she could kill flies, she couldn't have imagined that her family, as a farmer, was still so far away from the capital, and she still provoked this battle for the throne. This is the thing she rejects the most! Blood relatives who should love and support each other, but for the sake of power, they kill their relatives more viciously than their enemies, and the depravity of human nature is to the extreme. She couldn't see such a thing, she didn't want to see it with her own eyes, and she didn't want to participate in it, but today she still let her family run into it.
"Have you ever identified yourself with the prince?"
Xiaohu thought about it carefully and shook his head: "I didn't have time to talk before I was injured, and after I was injured, they were busy treating me, and they didn't seem to say anything about my identity." However, everyone knows what they know, even if they don't say it explicitly. Otherwise, when the prince personally visited me in the hospital, he would not have asked or asked. ”
Erya thinks about it now, there is no point in investigating whether or not to reveal his identity, the key is that this matter depends on how the emperor handles it.
"Is this something to be dealt with?"
"There is no movement on the surface, but I heard that there are many people who are secretly disposed of. All the princes who have been in the Waikai Mansion have been locked up by the emperor, when the result of the matter is found out, and when they will be freed. ”
This emperor's handling is really simple and rude, no matter if you are innocent, I will circle you all first. We really have to find out who did this, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to find the real black hand. The emperor is also very aware of this, so he doesn't plan to really check the truth. Instead of being used as a knife, it is better to beat back all the hands that want to be stretched out. If anyone dares to reach out at this time, then chop it down unceremoniously.
Zhizhou, who wanted to sue Xiaolong and Xiao Zongbing before, and the so-called witnesses also surfaced.
Those witnesses were actually a few soldiers who had made trouble on the construction site before, but hundreds of households did not participate in it. After trial, they all had only one reason, that is, to retaliate against the prefect of Wang and General Xiao, and they never thought of being unfavorable to the prince. Zhizhou also insisted that he was negligent. Pity! If they think they can get away with it, then they are underestimating.
Zhizhou was soon found to have committed many major crimes such as bribery, bribery, embezzlement, and forming a party that were enough to raid his family and be exiled. After that, he was soon raided from his home, and the whole family was exiled to the land of Nanling, where the climate and environment were the worst.
A few small soldiers are simpler, because there is no tangible evidence to falsely accuse the chief and the court officials, and each person is punished with a hundred military sticks, it is their luck to live, and it is their fate not to live. What's even worse is that their grandfathers or fathers, who were originally in high positions, were all demoted without asking for a reason.
Few people may know what happened to the crown prince, but secretly being disposed of by the emperor with so many officials and imprisoning so many princes, it is still faintly guessed.
As long as you want to know, Erya can naturally get these inside information. From these vigorous and resolute wrists, it can be seen that this Feng Batian is both a good emperor and a good father. is not the kind of faint monarch who holds the throne and hangs his sons to fight to the death, which makes Erya, who was originally disgusted with the royal family, feel that there is at least a little bit of warmth in the royal family.
