“…… Fly...... Flying Eagle, did Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan catch it? Fast! Arraign them as soon as possible! So as not to have too many dreams at night! ”

Taiyuan City, in the post house, Dugu Xin, who had just woken up, only felt that he couldn't lift his strength, and he was also thirsty, after drinking three glasses of water handed over by Dugu Feiying in succession, Dugu Xin felt a little better, and his physical strength also recovered two points, so he dragged Dugu Feiying's arm and said intermittently.

The first time he came to his senses, Dugu Xin thought that it was not his own injury, but the person behind the scenes!

Obviously, this assassination gave him a strong sense of urgency, and since the forces hidden in the shadows now dare to jump out and assassinate him directly, it means that the other party's layout in Taiyuan City has been basically completed, and their next target is likely to be Li Tai and these teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy!

Therefore, before the other party's next action, it must be found out, otherwise Li Tai will definitely be in danger later!

"Big brother, Zhu Xisheng and Kang Changan were indeed caught, but on the way back from escorting, Kang Changan was killed!"

Dugu Xin was intercepted and killed before he arrived at Shuorenfang, so he didn't know that the secret guards of the Wang family were also attacked and killed on the way back, so Dugu Feiying hurriedly explained.

"What...... What the? Kang Changan was killed? Ahem......"

When Dugu Xin heard this, he almost jumped up from the bed (if his physical condition allowed), perhaps because he was too excited, causing him to be a little unsteady in his breath and began to cough.

Dugu Feiying hurriedly stepped forward, patted Dugu Xin's back, and said urgently: "Big brother, don't be excited, although Kang Changan was killed, we still have Zhu Xiesheng in our hands, and from his mouth, we will definitely be able to ask something!" ”

Wang Yu stood aside and couldn't help but speak: "Commander Dugu doesn't know, my Wang family guards were attacked by three black-clothed masters on the way back to escort Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Chang'an, and those three people had extremely high martial arts, and at that time, Wang Chengwu, the leader of the Wang family's guards, happened to go to Wenchangfang in the south of the city, so they let them kill Kang Chang'an!"

After all, this matter is the fault of my Wang family, and the Wang family will definitely take good care of Zhu Xiesheng in the future, and will never let this person have another accident. General Feiying is right, at the moment, Commander Dugu is still recuperating from his injuries with peace of mind, then Zhu Xiesheng is under the care of the Wang family, you just have to wait for the injury to heal before arraignment! ”

Dugu Xin, who was lying on the couch, felt a slight move in his heart when he heard this, and he waved his hand at Wang Yu with great effort and said, "The Wang family is serious!" The fault of this matter is not the Wang family, besides, I was attacked in Nanxiang before, and the one who helped at the critical moment should be the leader of the Wang family's guards, right? The grace of saving his life has not yet been thanked, how dare Dugu Xin blame it? ”

Wang Yu's words revealed a very important information, that is, when the Wang family was attacking when they escorted Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan back, Wang Chengwu was not at the scene, but went to Wenchangfang in the south of the city.

Under the combination of the two, it is not difficult to speculate that when Dugu Xin was at the moment of life and death, the peerless swordsman who suddenly fell from the sky was Wang Chengwu, the commander of the Wang family's guards!

Although the fact that Kang Changan was assassinated under the heavy protection of the Wang family made Dugu Xin a little dissatisfied, but the grace of saving his life was in front of him, if Wang Chengwu hadn't rescued him, how could the three black-clothed masters who intercepted and killed Kang Changan succeed?

The cause and effect in this, Dugu Xin can still figure it out!

"Commander Dugu's guess is right, it is Wang Chengwu, the leader of the Wang family's guards, who went to Wenchangfang to rescue you! The Wang family has lived in Taiyuan for generations, and although it is not as responsible for guarding the city as the government, no one is allowed to spread wild at the door of the house! Therefore, it is the duty of the Wang family to rescue the Dugu commander, and the Dugu commander does not have to be polite~! ”

In the face of Dugu Xin's thanks, Wang Yu said with a righteous face.

As soon as these words came out, Wang Liaoyuan, who was standing aside, suddenly felt a little embarrassed, saying that maintaining the security of Taiyuan City should have been what the state government yamen or county government should do, Dugu Xin was assassinated in the city, and it was not the people in the government who rescued him, but the head of the Wang family's guards, which made the government very faceless!

But fortunately, Feng Zhutou from the yamen of the state capital arrived at the scene at the last moment, and he could be regarded as making some efforts, otherwise, Wang Liaoyuan's face would definitely be even more ugly at this moment!

"Whether it is the righteousness of the Wang family, or acting on orders, but for me Duguxin, it is a life-saving grace! How can this life-saving grace be counted? When I feel better, I will come to the door in person to thank Brother Chengwu! ”

Dugu Xin shook his head and insisted.

didn't wait for Wang Yu to say anything, but he changed his words and said in a deep voice: "But the top priority at the moment is to interrogate Zhu Xiesheng as soon as possible!" These assassins who appeared in the city today, the strongest people are grandmaster-level masters, their origins are probably not simple, we must find out their identities and hiding places as soon as possible, otherwise they will always be passive! ”

Standing aside, Li Tai, who had not spoken for a long time, spoke at this time: "General Dugu, you can recuperate from your injuries with peace of mind, and leave the matter of tracking down the assassin to us!" ”

"But ......"

Dugu Xin wanted to say something more, but was directly interrupted by Li Tai very strongly: "No, this is the king's order!" Doctor Gongsun also said earlier that in recent days, General Dugu still has to recuperate more, and he can't use force! This king is still waiting for General Dugu to recover as soon as possible, and then lead the forbidden army to protect this king! Please also ask General Dugu not to disappoint this king! During this time, the forbidden army will be under the command of General Flying Eagle! ”

Li Tai was rarely strong, his categorical words made Dugu Xin have no room to refute at all, after that, Li Tai turned to look at Wang Yu, Wang Liaoyuan and others, and said with a serious face: "General Dugu still has to recuperate, so don't bother him later!" In addition, the father and the emperor just sent a holy decree through the telegraph, please go out with the king to receive the decree~! ”

As soon as he heard that Li Er had sent a holy decree, everyone in the house couldn't help but look solemn, Wang Yu's heart was like a mirror, after all, Li Tai suddenly went out, because the telegraph machine rang, presumably it should be a telegram from the palace, and when Li Tai replied to the telegram, he must have reported to Li Er what happened in Taiyuan City today, so Li Er's holy decree must be related to Dugu Xin's assassination!

"No~!"

Everyone in the house, except for Dugu Xin, who was lying on the couch, all gave up their promises, and then followed Li Tai out of the door.

After a while, everyone came to a side hall, Li Tai stood in front of everyone, took out a note from his arms, he faced everyone, and read aloud:

"My father has an order, and he ordered the assassination of Shi Wang Liaoyuan in the state, and make every effort to investigate the assassination case of Dugu Xin, and the murderer must be caught within seven days, otherwise he will be severely punished; Ordered the state to fold the Chong Mansion Fang Gongteng, temporarily received the title of captain, and temporarily had the right to directly dispatch military horses to assist Wang Liaoyuan in maintaining law and order in Taiyuan, and to protect the safety of the king and the teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy! ”

The content of the holy decree is very short, so short that it doesn't look like a holy decree at all, there is no greeting and politeness, and there is no obscure person, it is more like Li Er is giving orders in front of everyone!

Although this is only a holy decree in the form of a telegram, no one can distinguish the truth from the false, it is completely what Li Tai says, but no one present questioned the authenticity of the holy decree, because the person who announced the decree is Li Tai, Li Er's favorite son, Li Tai is impossible to lie about this matter, because lying on this kind of thing is easy to be exposed, and once it is exposed, then the political career is basically over!

What's more, there is no need for Li Tai to lie about this matter at all, for him, there is no benefit in lying!

"Minister, Wang Liaoyuan obeys the order!"

Listening to the meaning of Li Ersheng's decree, he did not directly remove him from his post and investigate, but asked him to make up for his merits, Wang Liaoyuan couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, but the seven-day deadline made his heart tight, and secretly said that in the next seven days, he was afraid that he would have no sleep!

Li Tai nodded and said: "Although this holy decree is from the telegraph, you don't have to doubt its authenticity, the holy decree stamped with the seal has been sent here with the help of the Wang family's carrier pigeons in the capital at this moment, it is estimated that it will arrive at noon, and please pay more attention to my uncle and grandfather when the time comes~!" ”

The cultivation of carrier pigeons can not be completed overnight, and it is impossible for the imperial court to cultivate a batch of carrier pigeons covering various states and counties in the Tang Dynasty, not only the imperial court cannot, but even the Wang family can not do it for a thousand years, and the Wang family has only cultivated some carrier pigeons, which are used in various places to send a message to the ancestral house in Taiyuan!

Wang Yu nodded and said, "Your Highness, rest assured, as soon as the Wang family receives the holy decree, they will send it over immediately!" In addition, Wang Tingshi needs any help when tracking down the assassins, but even if he opens his mouth to the old man, my Wang family will definitely help in this matter! ”

"Thank you~!"

Wang Liaoyuan arched his hand to Wang Yu and said gratefully.

He is a distant descendant of the Wang family, so he did not get much help from the Wang family in his official career, especially after becoming a state assassin, in order to avoid suspicion, he took the initiative to reduce his contacts with the Wang family. But in this matter, Wang Yu was willing to spare no effort to help him, which made him very moved!

Li Tai said loudly at this time: "Okay! That being said, I hope that you will work together to catch the Assassins lurking in the city as soon as possible! The first thing to do was to interrogate Zhu Xiesheng to see what could be said from his mouth. ”

Wang Liaoyuan arched his hand and said: "The lower officials obey the order!" The lower official sent someone to Wang's house, put Zhu Xiesheng in the government prison, immediately arraigned, and set up heavy guards, and would never let him have any more accidents~! ”

Li Tai shook his head and said, "It's not necessary to guard it with heavy troops, this king thinks we still shouldn't have too much hope for Zhu Xiesheng!" The reason why those assassins only killed Kang Chang'an, but spared Zhu Xiesheng, shows that they are not afraid that Zhu Xiesheng will fall into our hands at all, in other words, Zhu Xiesheng here, it is very likely that there is no news we want at all!

Therefore, for this person, a simple interrogation is good, at least he should know Kang Changan's identity! Let's not waste too much time and energy on this person~! ”

Calm and wise!

When everyone was clamoring to interrogate Zhu Xiesheng and delusionally wanted to get information about the assassin from the latter, Li Tai maintained absolute calm, I have to say that Li Tai is much calmer now than before!

Everyone present was not stupid, and when they heard Li Tai say this, they all reacted.

Indeed, according to the descriptions of the Wang family's secret guards, after killing Kang Changan, the three black-clothed masters had the strength to kill Zhu Xiesheng next to them together, but why didn't they do that? The only possibility is that Zhu Xiesheng is just an outcast they introduced, an outcast who has no effect, an outcast who doesn't know anything about their identity information!

"Your Highness said yes! The lower official was ashamed and almost fell into the trap of the other party! ”

Wang Liaoyuan said with a look of shame.

After a pause, he said again: "After the lower official transfers Zhu Xiesheng to the government prison, he will personally go to the Bingzhou camp to convey the will of the Holy Lord to Fang Senjun, and then ask Fang Senjun to immediately mobilize troops and horses to protect the safety of His Highness and others, and track down the assassins in the city!" ”

Although Li Tai has not yet sealed the appointment and transfer of troops, Li Tai also said just now that the holy decree will soon be "airlifted" to Taiyuan City, which Wang Liaoyuan and Wang Yu do not believe, and Fang Gongteng must not dare not believe it, because this kind of thing has already learned from the past! When Li Zexuan transferred troops from Taiyuan to stop the witch robbery, he also transferred troops through this method!

Therefore, in Wang Liaoyuan's opinion, with this holy decree in the form of a telegram, it is completely possible for Fang Gongteng to gather troops and horses in advance!

"Good! Let's do it now! ”

This time, Li Tai did not refuse Wang Liaoyuan's request to let the soldiers and horses of the state capital protect the safety of the academy and his party, because by now, he had already felt the seriousness of the situation.

"The next official retires~!"

Wang Liaoyuan and Wang Yu surrendered one after another.

In the film hall, there were only three people left: Li Tai, Tie Dan and Dugu Feiying!

Li Tai turned to look at Tie Dan at this time, and said: "Tie Dan, you have good kung fu, go to Longshan on my behalf, these black-clothed people are so arrogant and fierce, I am worried that the other party will be unfavorable to Mr. Mo Chui and them, you immediately lead a team of forbidden troops to Longshan Tongzi Temple!" ”

Tie Dan hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No! I have to keep you safe, this is the task that Master has given me! ”

The reason why Li Zexuan let Tie Dan follow the academy's team to the north was not because he wanted Tie Dan to make much effort when building a telegraph relay station, but because among the students of the academy, Tie Dan's martial arts were considered to be top-notch, and he had a good relationship with Li Tai, so it was most suitable for him to protect Li Tai's safety every step of the way!

When Li Tai heard this, he couldn't help but be a little speechless.

Dugu Feiying hugged his fists at this time and said: "It's better for the last general to take people to Longshan!" Brother Tie Egg should stay by His Highness's side as well! ”

Although Dugu Feiying wanted to stay and take care of Dugu Xin at this moment, he did not forget the mission on his shoulders!

"Good! Then there is General Lao Feiying! ”
