Chapter 143: Under the Shadows
After Duanmu Qinghua entered the room, Ji Yueming walked towards the front hall. As soon as they entered the front hall of Qing'an City, the civil and military officials were already waiting there.
"Madame!"
Seeing Ji Yueming, everyone saluted and asked.
And Ji Yueming glanced at everyone, his eyes were full of coldness and coldness, "Ming'er was actually assassinated in broad daylight, is this how you do things!" Can anyone tell me how many assassins are still hidden in this Qing'an City! ”
"We are waiting for ten thousand deaths, or Mrs. forgives the sins!"
At this time, Ji Yueming completely lost the love and gentleness of Fang Cai, and all that was left was the anger of his beloved son after being hurt.
Although Ji Yueming usually has an elegant personality and is reluctant to go through the trivial affairs of the Greeting Mansion, when she lifts the shelf of the housewife, her power is still very terrifying.
After taking two deep breaths, Ji Yueming forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart, and then continued: "Hou Ye is not out of town, and then such an incident happened, if there is anything unexpected in Ming'er, I will see how you explain to Hou Ye!" ”
At this time, Ji Yueming was in a rage, and everyone present was trembling, and no one dared to defend at this time.
After scolding these civil and military officials, Ji Yueming strictly ordered everyone, "You all listen to me, search the whole city immediately, don't let go of any corner, you must search for that assassin, if you can't find an assassin, don't come to see me!" ”
"No!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately responded, and immediately went down to set up.
Out of the gate, Zhou Yi, the commander of the city guards, immediately stepped up and asked Wang Qi, the general of the Houfu, "Lord Wang, who do you say will assassinate the eldest prince?" Dare to assassinate the prince of the mayor of Houfu in Qing'an City, does he not want to live! ”
And Wang Qi glanced at Zhou Yi, looking angry, "If you ask me, then who will I ask!" You have time to wander around here, why don't you go and search for the Assassins in the blockade of the city! ”
Zhou Yi replied in a low voice: "Do you still need to order this matter?" As soon as I knew that the eldest prince had been assassinated, I immediately blocked the city gate and sent someone to strictly investigate it! But I heard that the assassin was a swordsman of the Martial Arts Realm, so how could we stop him if he wanted to leave! ”
"If you can't stop it, won't you check it? Why do you want Madame to know that you are indifferent to the assassination of the eldest prince? Do you want those outsiders to know that we have done nothing about this matter? Hearing Zhou Yi's words, Wang Qi couldn't help but be a little speechless, if it weren't for the remnants of the clan, how could this fool be in the position of the commander of the Qing'an City Guard.
"Oh! I understand, thank you for your advice. Although Zhou Yi has few brains, he is not an idiot, and he understands it all after a little thought.
In other state capitals of the Qianyuan Empire, the highest prefect was the prefect. But Qing'an City is the fief of Qing'an Hou Changfeng Po Army, so Chang Feng Po Jun is the supreme ruler here, and Hou Fu Tong is the chief civil servant who assists Chang Feng Po Jun.
However, because Changfeng Pojun is leading troops outside, the specific government affairs of Qing'an City have always been in charge of Wang Qi, so Wang Qi is the highest political official in Qing'an City.
So under Wang Qi's arrangement, the whole city of Qing'an City became nervous.
At the same time, the Changfeng Army also sent troops to assist in the search, and this search also found a lot of black corners.
The Changfeng Army is the private army of Qing'an Houfu, which is well-equipped and well-trained, and its combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of the Imperial Standing Army, and it is the main force to defend Qing'an City.
However, the Changfeng Army is only loyal to Qing'anhou in the past dynasties, and no one else can be transferred. Therefore, the security and pursuit of bandits in Qing'an City, the Changfeng Army ignored them, and all of them were handed over to the city guards.
But this time it was the assassination of the prince of the Governor-Hou, so the Changfeng Army could not stay out of the matter.
It's just that the Changfeng Army is a private army of the Changfeng family, and its status is special, so the Changfeng Breaking Army has extremely strict control over it. In addition, Changfeng Pojun, as the commander of the Huwei Army, leads the troops abroad all the year round, and the affairs of the whole army are entrusted to the two deputy marshals.
Therefore, he only gave the two lieutenants the ability to command the troops, but did not give them the right to transfer troops, so they could only send their own guards to assist.
In this way, he expressed his loyalty to his wife, and did not arouse the suspicion of Changfeng Pojun.
At this time, in the barracks of Du Ziqian, the deputy marshal of the Changfeng Army barracks, Du Ziqian looked at the letter in his hand with a gloomy face, and after reading it, he immediately stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it.
After sending the guards out to assist in the search for the assassins, Du Ziqian stayed in the barracks, and at the same time his mood couldn't be worse. Because he knew who sent the Assassins, and it was because of this that he felt a little scared.
"Damn it!"
After a long time, Du Ziqian couldn't help but curse with a gloomy face, and at the same time showed a remorseful expression. But soon he was back to normal, and then he quietly left the barracks through the secret door.
At the same time, the long wind and waves also avoided the ears and eyes, and the snow shadow was replaced by him, and he himself quietly left the Houfu.
In a hidden tavern in the east of the city, Du Ziqian came here alone after leaving the barracks. As if he were familiar with the place, he went straight to the backyard of the tavern, and then entered a small and inconspicuous room.
After a while, an ordinary-looking young man followed. I saw that when the young man came in, he uncovered his face, and then he tore off a human skin mask, revealing a very white face, and this person was a long wind and waves!
After seeing the long wind and waves, Du Ziqian forcibly endured the dissatisfaction in his heart and said: "Why don't you discuss such a big matter as the assassination of the eldest prince!" ”
After hearing this, Chang Fenglang chuckled, "General Du doesn't need to be angry, I arranged this matter seamlessly, and even if it fails, it won't be able to find me, so you can rest assured." ”
Although Chang Fenglang looked full of confidence, Du Ziqian was still a little worried in his heart, because this time the trouble was too big, and he also knew Chang Feng's scheming and ruthlessness very well.
Changfeng Pojun was not the eldest son of Changfeng Pojun back then, but he finally inherited the title of Qing'an Hou. Although there is the support of King Jing, it is also inseparable from the ruthlessness of Changfeng Pojun himself.
"This assassination failed, what is the decision of the third son." After a while, Du Ziqian asked.
And Changfeng Lang smiled cruelly and said, "Hmph! Since we can't kill him, let's cut off his wings first! Although this assassination was unsuccessful, it was an unbearable humiliation for Houfu, and his father would definitely punish the murderer severely to deter Xiaoxiao! ”
"Then if the assassin is caught by Hou Ye, wouldn't it be very dangerous for us!" Du Ziqian couldn't help but be a little worried.
"Don't worry, that's a martial arts realm powerhouse, even my father can't catch it if he wants to." For being able to buy a martial arts realm powerhouse to work for him, Changfeng Lang is still very proud.
