Chapter 56: The Assassinated Shen Cong
If Yue Fei just felt bad, Shen Cong's current situation was very bad.
He was hit by an arrow in his left shoulder, a bow and arrow from the Yellow Birch Bow, the standard equipment of the Great Song Forbidden Army, an arrow shaft about a foot long, with tail feathers, and the arrow was deeply inserted into his shoulder.
He was in the palace, wearing regular clothes, he thought he was safe, but he didn't expect that there was a traitor among the officials, and he was now hiding under the window of a small wing, where the eunuch lived.
It was still completely dark, and the moonlight was not bright, so he was given some cover.
The two personal servants outside the door are constantly approaching, and the heavy footsteps are from far and near outside the door.
He knew he was going to die this time.
He couldn't escape, although when the arrows flew, he was already alarmed, and heard the sound of the arrows breaking through the air, but he only avoided the vital point, and if he reacted a little slowly, it would have pierced his heart.
In the Great Song Palace, assassination was done!
Moreover, the assassin was still the commander of the palace guard of the Great Song Palace, and the person who attacked was the personal servant.
Speaking of which, it is also ironic.
I asked myself that I was not thin on my relatives and officials, and I never deducted it.
Whenever anyone has something, he is always helpful, asking himself and treating each other with sincerity, but in exchange for betrayal.
However, it is too late to say anything.
"Commander Shen, don't blame your brother for being ruthless, it's really that the bounty promised by Master Liang is too generous!" A personal officer shouted and walked in with a crossbow.
One person walked into the wing, and the other person was outside the door, lifting the window, and patrolling back and forth in the wing, which was not very spacious.
This action of opening the window directly killed him.
A flash of silver light flashed, and the sharp blade slashed across his neck, directly cutting off his breath.
Shen Cong jumped up, endured severe pain, and ran out of the side room.
A sucker! I taught you all your battle formations! Can I know if someone will be guarding the window?
Shen Cong ran very fast, and when the relatives in the house chased him out, Shen Cong had already run far away.
What made him even more desperate was that he saw Shen Cong light a ringing arrow. There is a whistle hanging on the cloud-piercing arrow itself, and when it is fired, it will make a piercing and sharp sound, which has the effect of early warning.
Later, after there were more fireworks in Bianjing City, fireworks were also tied to the arrows, and the effect of the early warning became stronger, and the location could be better identified than the previous whistle.
Shen Cong was dressed in regular clothes, and there was undoubtedly no warning!
Apparently it was from the official just now!
To be bad!
The assassin threw the arm crossbow in his hand to the ground, quickly took off the armor on his body, revealing his regular clothes, thought about it, picked up the hemp knife on the ground, and pretended to have just seen Shen Cong!
Blended in with the ranks of the pro-servant officers who responded.
It's just that his speed is getting slower and slower, and he falls to the end, turns around, turns to Xihua Gate, takes out the palace token and says: "In the name of Your Majesty, go out of the palace to do business." ”
He must be fast, whether it is an arm crossbow or the armor of his personal servants, there is a name engraved on his body, and the slower his speed is, the more likely he is to die in the imperial city.
His expression was a little flustered, and he looked left and right.
Recently, there have been a lot of military dispatches, and the secretary of Zhongshu Province occasionally goes out of the palace in the middle of the night, and the guard of Xihuamen does not feel that it is so abnormal.
Just as the Xihua Gate was slowly opening, an arrow struck with a breaking sound and pierced the leg of the officer.
"Close the gates." Shen Cong had already expected the assassin to flee when he had finished issuing the warning arrow.
And he was sure that the Assassins would come out of the Xihua Gate.
Because the palace gate is always closed, you can only go out of the palace in the middle of the night through the Xihua gate.
He had been waiting here for a long time, and when he saw the pro-servant officer with a hurried expression, he shot an arrow.
He didn't look at it by the hurried expression, but he recognized the man. He could already hear the assassin's shouts just now.
Although there are nearly 3,000 personal officials, and he can't name every one, most of them are very familiar.
This person didn't speak official language, he locked his place of origin from the accent, filtered it in a small area, and then thought about it according to the friend he hacked to death, and he could get the appearance of an assassin.
"Tell me why." Shen limped to the Assassin, an arrow in his shoulder, and when he was fleeing, he was also hit by an arrow in the leg, bleeding profusely.
"Die!" The Assassin suddenly drew his thorn knife and slashed at him head-on.
The sound of the bell sounded in front of the Xihua Gate, and the archers on the city tower had already seen that something was wrong, and the long arrow hit the knife very accurately, knocking the long knife to the ground.
"Tell me why." Shen Cong did not try the case in the first place, and the resentment in his heart had exceeded his loyalty to his duties.
He now asked the Assassin why he was doing this, as a brother of life and death.
"For the money. Liang Shicheng gave me a lot of money. Let me kill you. For this reason. The assassin replied, and he saw the confusion on Shen Cong's face.
With a flick of his sleeve, the assassin took out a dagger and stabbed it at Shen Cong's face.
Sou! The arrow plunged into the man's shoulder, piercing the Assassin to the ground.
The official archer, once more, drew an arrow, took a bow to the full moon, and pointed it at the assassin.
"I don't believe it." Shen Cong shook his head and said, "You are from Xiangzhou, your family is relatively well-off, and your family background is also very clean, so you will not do such a thing because of money." ”
In these days, although money is very important, it is not the most important thing, and Shen never believed that he could sell himself for a few thousand taels of silver.
He still has this confidence.
"Tianyue." The Assassin spat out two words.
Shen Cong nodded, this is right, young and vigorous, it is normal to be a little carried away by blood.
Tianyue is the top brand of the brothel in Sweet Water Lane, and it is also the Oiran of the entire Bianjing City.
Famous in Kyoto, proficient in piano, chess, poetry and painting, usually do not see guests, do not dedicate themselves to performances, and the price of redemption has been as high as five hundred taels of gold.
Shen Cong is the intelligence chief, so he naturally knows all kinds of things in Bianjing City very clearly.
Tianyue is not the real name of this Oiran, but a pseudonym, the real name cannot be verified, Sweet Water Lane is one of the sixteenth floors of the official prostitutes of the Great Song Dynasty.
The source of official prostitutes is complex, some of them are naturalized after copying large families, and there are also various teaching workshops, and the sixteenth floor has been cultivated by themselves since childhood.
"Five hundred taels of gold is worth the money." Shen Cong shook his head, since ancient times, the hero mound of the gentle township, the official is not a saint, how can everyone bypass this hurdle.
"Command!" A few of his retinues came down from the city wall, subdued the assassin, and asked, "How do you solve the problem of the assassin?" ”
"Temporary detention."
……
When Zhao Huan heard the sound of the arrow, he heard the sound of armor colliding outside the door, and there were people in armor outside the Wende Palace, which blocked the water around the entire Wende Palace.
The impermeable defense line, the shadow of the huge shield is longing outside the Wende Palace.
"Zhao Ying, ask, what's going on?" Zhao Huan is also a little inexplicably weak-hearted, could it be that as soon as the Western Army left, the forbidden army rebelled?
This guts is too fat.
Zhao Ying hurriedly went out, and after a while, he came back and said, "Official, Commander Shen has been assassinated." He is now being treated at the Royal Hospital. The thieves, one dead and one wounded, have been subdued. ”
Zhao Huan clicked on the picture and said, "Go to the Imperial Hospital." ”
How to say that Shen Cong was also the first minister to defect to him, so he also wanted to go and see.
When Zhao Huan saw Shen Cong, he was lying on the bed shirtless, and the floor of the ward of the imperial hospital was covered with blood, and the pungent smell of blood came to his face.
Zhao Huan saw this imperial doctor for the second time, named Hu Yuan, who is said to have been a doctor for generations and has excellent medical skills.
Zhao Huan watched Hu Yuan sprinkle the burnt ashes on the wound. Then bring a basin of yellow juice and prepare to sprinkle it. I smelled a strong smell from afar.
He was pretty sure that the maker of this basin of liquid was on fire!
"What do you want to do!" Zhao Huan asked very uncertainly.
It seems that Hu Yuan is preparing to sprinkle this pot of reincarnation on the wound?
He thought of this Hu Yuan's family who had practiced medicine for generations, and the arrow on the buttocks of Zhao Guangyi, the emperor of the donkey cart, was treated by his ancestors.
Think about it carefully, this Zhao Guangyi died unjustly!
The Hu family has mastered the true dragon slaying technique!
"If the arrow is embedded in the meat, and the clamp cannot be removed, it is advisable to solve the bone pill, accept the wound, and chew it externally with sheep kidney fat. Feel the itch and endure it, the extremely itchy arrow gradually emerges, shakes and pulls out, that is, it is washed with human urine, pasted with Tuo monk ointment, can be replaced, and the wound heals itself. It's what the "Medical Sect Jinjian" says, Your Majesty, is there a problem? "Hu Yuan opened his mouth and came, a classic.
it! Of course there are opinions! The opinion is big! This is to kill Shen Cong, I'm afraid that Shen Cong will die too quickly!
