Chapter 196: Schadenfreude

"Why not?"

Sima Liancheng's expression was solemn: "In the Yongning Temple alone, nine secret sentinels have been arranged to keep an eye on the Yongning Tower. But until the assassin kills and leaves, we sentries are completely unaware!"

When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but secretly break out in a cold sweat, thinking to himself that there were actually nine secret sentinels? He had only discovered five of them. Even Zhang Yurou relied on the 'Divine Observation Mirror', and only found seven places.

He himself was remotely manipulating the Dharma Body of the 'Western Taiji Emperor and the Great Emperor', and his five senses and spiritual consciousness were all inevitably declining, far inferior to the main body.

But Zhang Yurou has a top-level magic weapon in her hand, and she actually missed two places, which shows the hidden ability of these embroidered guards.

And the reason why he was not noticed when he did it this time was mostly due to the divine power of that 'Houyi Heavenly God'.

This rune made by a great grandmaster of the divine product is worthy of its word 'god', although its divine power is not the kind that is good at concealment, but it can still make the divine blood eyes exert the strength that is not inferior to the level of the grandmaster of the dynasty in a short period of time, and perfectly display the various hidden combat skills of this ink armor body.

He secretly felt lucky in his heart, but his face was silent: "Then there is no way, this person's hidden ability is beyond this, what can I do?"

"So this time, Xia Guan wants to ask Erlang for help!"

Sima Liancheng bowed and saluted: "I want to use Erlang's command, I think you can teach me something?"

He knew that not long ago, they were able to stabilize the situation in the Eastern Capital because of Li Shimin's reminder.

When Li Shimin heard this, he smiled and flashed to the side: "I don't dare to accept Lord Sima's gift, if it is anything else, I will help it." But this time, this assassin is going for the King of Qi, right?"

Sima Liancheng's expression was slightly plenish, and then he smiled bitterly.

"You should know that I have a lot of resentment towards this highness. At this time, it is too late to gloat, where will there be suggestions for the capture of this assassin?"

Li Shimin snorted coldly, and his voice seemed to be so cold that it was cold to the bone marrow: "I think Master Sima, I guess I won't blame me for being righteous?"

Sima Liancheng sighed secretly, thinking to himself, how could he blame?

When he saw Li Shimin in this jade pavilion, he was actually relieved. This serial assassination incident may really have nothing to do with Li Shimin.

Of course, it's just today's alibi, and it can't be completely ruled out. suspicion in other ways. But at least it was certain that this was not the mysterious assassin who had mastered the 'consistency', and it could never be the main culprit.

No matter how you think about it, with Li Shimin's current financial and material resources and connections and power, it is impossible to manipulate a sharpshooter of at least one rank and take a great risk to assassinate a court official in a row.

So even if this person was involved in this incident, he was only an accomplice at best.

This made his mind relax greatly, and after tonight, Li Shimin's name would be retraced dozens of places on the list of suspects drawn up by their embroidered guards, or even removed.

This means that Sima Liancheng does not have to feel embarrassed in the short term because he may have to attack his friends.

"But if I were you, then find a way to transfer away as soon as possible and stay away from the Eastern Capital for the time being. ”

Li Shimin seemed to be smiling at this time, and looked at Sima Liancheng: "Sima Lang thinks that if you eliminate this assassin, this eastern capital will be safe and sound." It seems to me that today's chaos is just the beginning. Dare to ask the mastermind behind the assassination of His Royal Highness, have you already arrested him? Who are those who killed my third brother? What are the plots? Why did His Royal Highness the King of Qin intervene in it?"

Seeing Sima Liancheng's brows furrowed and falling into contemplation, Li Shimin sighed lightly: "That's all I say, you can do it yourself." For you, this Luoyang City is by no means a good place. ”

He could never stop acting out of sympathy for his friend's plight. And once the turmoil of this continuous assassination intensifies, Sima Liancheng, who is an embroidered general, will most likely be convicted for this.

Now he can only advise this person to leave the Eastern Capital as soon as possible.

When he boarded the carriage waiting outside the door, Li Shimin saw Zhang Yurou inside, holding the law in his hand, looking nervous, looking at the god sitting in the center of the carriage.

After seeing him coming, Zhang Yurou immediately looked slightly relaxed: "If you don't come again, I don't care." ”

Then she complained again: "How good is it to bury this thing in the soil first? Once this demon furnace gets out of control, you Li Shimin will certainly become a repeat offender in the imperial court, and I will also die!"

"Buried in the soil? The people you work as embroiderers and guards are all waste, and you can't sense such a big energy source?"

Li Shimin was obviously unimpressed by Zhang Yurou's words: "As for getting out of control, it's impossible." When this armor came back before, I had already tried to find a way to vent the energy stored in the Divine Blood Demon Vein, and the possibility of it exploding out of control was less than one in a million. Coupled with the method I taught you to channel the flow of energy, it is even more minimal,"

"You said it earlier, so I'm so worried. ”

Zhang Yurou's body collapsed with weakness, and then she felt wrong, and glared at Li Shimin: "You lied to me!"

Before, this guy also told her that the probability of this divine blood demon vein getting out of control was less than five percent.

"I'm not lying to you, I'm talking about less than five percent, and it's the state before the blood of the gods. ”

Although Li Shimin said this, a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

But of course, he also saw a trace of murderous aura gathered in Zhang Yurou's eyes. But he was calm and solemn.

"Did you hear what Sima Liancheng said just now?"

Zhang Yurou knew that Li Shimin was diverting the problem, but she couldn't think of a way to retaliate for the time being. And she also attaches great importance to what Li Shimin said, and at this time she can only purse her lips dissatisfied: "These embroidered guards are quite powerful." I'll find a way to improve and never make a mistake like this again. ”

At that time, she heard the words of these two people clearly through the magic weapon hanging under Li Shimin's mouth. So at that time, I was also shocked.

Li Shimin looked at this one with some suspicion, guessing her 'improvement' method. Zhang Yurou only temporarily possessed second-grade spiritual power with the help of Waidan, so there was no room for improvement in this regard.

Could it be that he took out some magic weapon or high-level rune?

But this has nothing to do with him, it depends on what Zhang Yurou thinks.

"Has it been confirmed over there, how is Qin Kerou's life and death?"

At this time, the carriage under their feet was already moving slowly, and after Li Shimin sat down, he opened the curtain and looked outside, as if he was looking for something.

He was on the tower of Yongning Temple just now, and he didn't confirm the results of the battle at all, and after the arrow was fired, he directly shifted the target, striving to leave the tower of Yongning Temple in the shortest possible time

Li Shimin firmly believes in his own judgment, and he only has a chance to shoot an arrow. Especially Qin Kerou, if the first arrow under the full burst cannot be successful, then he can only be forced to use the chain shooting method with great power, which makes it even more impossible to snipe Qin Kerou.

So when the arrow in his hand was shot, Li Shimin had already abandoned it and never planned to have a second arrow.

So now, he can't confirm whether those people are dead or not.

"Including Qin Kerou, all seven people were wiped out,"

Zhang Yurou was amazed, and glanced at it in disbelief: "Luo Li is right, Erlang, you are really born to be a killer, and you actually predicted their actions before taking another breathβ€”β€”"

At that time, the power of Li Shimin's arrows was certainly due to the blessing of the 'Houyi Heavenly God'. But this ability to predict is Li Shimin himself.

Those heavy arrows flew from the tower of Yongning Temple to the target place, and it took at least one breath - which meant that Li Shimin had already judged the opponent's next move and reaction when facing the enemy before taking a breath.

"What can this be? When people are in danger, they often instinctively adopt the way they are most familiar and good at responding, I have the information you provided, if you can't predict it in advance, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the prestige of your ancestors?"

Li Shimin shook his head slightly: "Besides, if I really want to be a killer, isn't it overkill?"

Zhang Yurou thought to herself that her father had said that the benevolent prince in front of her may be the most outstanding military genius in the past ten years in the Great Sui, and he will definitely be a master of the art of war in the future.

Among the characters my father has seen, there is only one Li Jing, who can be compared with Li Shimin.

But when it comes to combat results, the former is still not as good as Li Shimin.

"What are you looking at?"

At this time, Zhang Yurou also noticed Li Shimin's abnormality, who was obviously looking for someone, and was looking at the queue outside the left and right windows.

"I'm looking for Yang Yun, my bodyguard. ”

Li Shimin was talking about this, and he saw a lane not far away. Yang Yun was hurrying over with a jujube red horse and joining their queue.

Seeing this, Li Shimin's eyes couldn't help but condense slightly. He remembered the scene he saw not long ago, when he manipulated the 'Divine Blood Eye' to return from Yongning Temple.

At that time, Yang Yun was walking quickly through an alley in Yanfufang, black clothes stained with blood, and his body was sneaky, and he didn't know what he was doing.

Because he was familiar with Yang Yun's qi, he noticed it at the first time. Even this one was masked at the time.

However, due to the inconvenience of the situation at that time, although he was curious, he could only abandon it.

However, Li Shimin can be 100% sure that what Yang Yun was doing at that time must have nothing to do with the task of embroidering clothes.

When this woman was in Yanfufang, she was wearing a black robe with a certain stealth effect, but when she came back, she changed into the usual strong clothes. In addition, Yang Yun was carrying a long sword in her hand at the time, not the knife she was good at, which was obviously concealing her identity-

Thinking of this, Li Shimin couldn't help but squint his eyes, thinking that he really should use dim sum for this subordinate.
