Chapter 880: A Great Tribulation Strikes

The assassin pursued by Liu Xiu committed suicide by poisoning, and the assassin that Long Yuan pursued also committed suicide by poisoning, and the two assassins pursued by the two failed to leave a mouth.

When Liu Xiu and Long Yuan returned to the box, the battle here had ended, Long Zhun, Long Xiao, Xuying, Xuting, and Xufei were all in the box, and there were more than a dozen corpses on the ground, including the corpses of assassins and Li Zichun's entourage, all of which were mixed together.

Liu Xiu glanced around, walked quickly to Yin Lihua, and asked, "Lihua, are you okay?" ”

Yin Lihua's face turned pale, and she shook her head at Liu Xiu, indicating that she was fine, she looked at Luo You, who was in a coma on the side, and choked up and said, "Luo You was seriously injured in order to save me!" ”

Liu Xiu frowned secretly, walked up to Luo You, and looked at the injury on her head.

On the top of her head, there was a wound, bleeding profusely, and it looked like it had either been hit by a heavy object or had been bruised.

At this moment, there was a rumbling of footsteps on the street outside, Long Yuan walked to the window, looked out, and saw that the officials of the brigade were running over.

He turned around and said, "Childe, the people from the county government have arrived." ”

Liu Xiu didn't want to participate in the rest of the troubles, but before he could speak, Li Zichun and Li Ziyu both stood up from the corner of the wall, shook off their legs, and ran out like crazy, shouting as they ran: "Help!" Come and help! ”

Before the two of them ran to the door of the box, Xuting and Xufei stepped forward and threw a kick each, kicking them in the stomach.

These two brothers and sisters, like leather balls, rolled backwards, and the people turned back to the corner.

"Guys are terrible! Guys are terrible! ”

Li Ziyu knelt on the ground, snot and tears flowed down together, and kowtowed again and again.

He originally thought that Liu Xiu was a foreigner, very easy to bully, and coveted Yin Lihua's beauty, and wanted to take advantage of the opportunity, but he didn't expect that this time he provoked the steel plate, these people are all outlaws who kill people without blinking! Of course, Long Yuan, Xu Ying and the others would not let the two of them leave, the two of them came to find fault, and then the assassins arrived, would the two of them have nothing to do with these assassins?

Long Xiao stepped forward, stomped Li Ziyu's head on the ground with one kick, and said in a condensed voice: "Now I know that I'm afraid, it's too late!" ”

Liu Xiu didn't even look at Li Zichun and Li Ziyu, in his eyes, there was no difference between the two of them and ants.

He said to Xuying and the others: "Xuying, Xuting, Xufei, the three of you stay and let the county government assist in the investigation." ”

As he spoke, he squatted down, picked up Luo You, and then took Yin Lihua and walked out.

Long Yuan, Long Zhun, and Long Xiao glanced at Li Zichun and Li Ziyu coldly, and didn't say anything more, and followed Liu Xiu.

As soon as Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua got into the carriage, the officials of the county government came close and surrounded the two carriages.

There was such a big incident in Nanshi, how could the county government not pay attention to it, not to mention that the county lieutenant Zhang Ben came in person, and even the county commander Dong Xuan also arrived.

Dong Xuan and Zhang Ben came to the front, separated the officials who surrounded the carriage, and looked up, and saw Long Yuan sitting in the carriage.

The two were stunned for a moment, then bowed their hands and said in unison: "General Long Yuan!" ”

After a pause, Zhang Ben asked puzzledly, "Is this ...... What's going on? ”

"Dong County Commander, Zhang County Lieutenant, go to the carriage and talk."

In the carriage, Liu Xiu's voice came out.

Hearing Liu Xiu's voice, Dong Xuan and Zhang Ben both wondered if they had heard it wrong.

The two of them were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward.

Liu Xiu lifted the curtain a little and said, "There is an assassin in the Drunken Fragrance Pavilion who wants to assassinate me." ”

Dong Xuan and Zhang Ben looked through the gap in the curtain tent and looked up, it was not Liu Xiu or who was sitting in the carriage?

Dong Xuan and Zhang Ben heard that an assassin had assassinated the Son of Heaven, and the two of them were trembling together, and they were about to kneel, Liu Xiu said: "What I am doing here, don't make a noise."

Some of the assassins who assassinated me died, but some of them ran away, and I had to track them down, not only to track down these assassins, but also to track down the assassins' accomplices and hiding places. ”

"Yes...... Be! Your Majesty! ”

"Before the assassination of the assassins, two brothers, Li Zichun and Li Ziyu, came to me for trouble, and these two people are likely to be related to the assassins, and they are temporarily detained in the county government for strict interrogation.

If no important confession can be found in the trial, it can be handed over to the Tingwei's Mansion for investigation. ”

"Yes! Your Majesty! ”

Dong Xuan bowed and saluted.

Zhang Ben was secretly grinning, the two brothers Li Zichun and Li Ziyu were crazy, and they dared to go to the Son of Heaven for trouble.

This time it's good, and it's related to the Assassins.

Zhang Ben is no stranger to Li Zichun and Li Ziyu, and has drunk wine together several times.

In his opinion, Li Ziyu is just a gentleman, a wine bag and a rice bag, not worth mentioning, Li Zichun is a character, old-fashioned, sleek, all-round, exquisite, a typical businessman.

If it was said that the two brothers were related to the assassins and wanted to assassinate the Son of Heaven, Zhang Ben would definitely not believe it, and the two brothers did not have the courage to do so.

But this time, it happened that at the same time as they provoked the Son of Heaven, there was an assassin, which was indisputable, and it could only be said that the two brothers were unlucky, and they provoked the Son of Heaven without beads.

Liu Xiu had nothing more to explain, put down the curtain, and knocked on the wall of the car at the same time.

Long Yuan shook the reins, drove the carriage, and drove forward.

Zhang Ben waved his hand again and again to his subordinates, and shouted: "Retreat, retreat!" Give way quickly! ”

Seeing Liu Xiu's carriage go away, Dong Xuan and Zhang Ben glanced at each other, and then took the servants and entered the wine house.

There was such a big thing as the assassination of the Son of Heaven, not to mention that Li Zichun and Li Ziyu who were present were unlucky, the entire wine house, whether it was the shopkeeper, the guys, the back kitchen, or the diners among them, one was counted as one, and no one could escape, and they were all taken down by the officials and escorted back to the county government for interrogation.

Li Zichun and Zhang Ben are still quite familiar, he was escorted downstairs by two officials, and when he saw Zhang Ben in the lobby on the first floor, his eyes lit up, and he threw off the two officials beside him and ran straight to Zhang Ben.

The two officials roared angrily, and were about to step forward to knock Li Zichun to the ground, when Zhang Ben waved his hand to the two of them, signaling that everything was fine.

Li Zichun came to Zhang Ben's approach, and said urgently: "County Lieutenant Zhang, the people upstairs were not killed by me and Ziyu, but by those people, this incident has nothing to do with our brothers, and my entourage was also killed by them......" Zhang Ben took a deep breath and listened to the tone, Li Zichun didn't seem to know who he was messing with until now! He walked towards Li Zichun and whispered in his ear: "Mr. Li, the people you are talking about are named Long Yuan, Long Zhun, Long Xiao, Xuying, Xuting, and Xufei, don't you think their names are very familiar?" ”

Li Zichun was stunned, blinked his eyes, and looked at Zhang Ben blankly.

Zhang Ben smiled, smiled bitterly, and said meaningfully: "In this Luoyang City, there are still a few Long Yuan, Long Zhun, Long Xiao, Xuying, Xuting, and Xufei? ”

After thinking about it carefully, Li Zichun's face suddenly changed drastically, and he asked in disbelief: "...... them They are the ...... of the palace" Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Ben nodded.

"That'...... That couple is ......" and the Yin nobles. ”

Zhang Ben whispered in his ear.

After Li Zichun heard this, his head suddenly buzzed, his legs weakened, and he involuntarily sat down on the ground.

No wonder he thinks that young man has a good temperament, and at first glance he knows that he is not an ordinary person, no wonder that woman is so beautiful, as if she is a fairy who does not eat fireworks in the world.

Now, he finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

When he and Ziyu were looking for fault with each other, an assassin suddenly appeared, and whoever it was replaced would assume that his two brothers were related to the assassins, and even people would believe that the assassins were brought in by their brothers.

I don't know how long he was stunned, Li Zichun finally came back to his senses, he knelt on the ground, hugged Zhang Ben's legs, and said in a trembling voice with a crying voice: "Captain Zhang, help!" Captain Zhang, help! ”

On weekdays, Li Zichun is the master of Mount Tai who does not change his color, and now he is out of shape to the point of crying and kneeling to beg for mercy, which shows that he has realized how serious things are.

This matter is no longer a matter of his life and death, but a matter of life and death of his entire family and the life and death of the Li family.

Zhang Ben looked at Li Zichun with some pity, shook his head helplessly, and said, "I'm just a small county lieutenant, and I don't have that much ability to save you." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, Dong Xuan walked over and looked at Li Zichun, who was kneeling and crying, and said expressionlessly: "It's okay to talk about the past, if you dare to show favoritism, you can do it yourself." ”

After speaking, Dong Xuan glanced at Zhang Ben, turned around and walked upstairs.

Zhang Ben shrugged, pulled Li Zichun up from the ground, and said, "Mr. Li, you also heard it, even in the county government, I can only listen to people's orders." ”

The implication is that this time, you don't expect me to save you.

After all, Li Zichun is a successful businessman who has experienced strong winds and waves, and he controls his emotions and tries to calm down as much as possible.

Zhang Ben is right, this time the matter is too big, he is just a county lieutenant, even if he wants to help, he can't do anything.

Now there is only one person who can save his brother.

Thinking of this, Li Zichun suddenly stretched out his hand and said to Zhang Ben: "One hundred gold!" ”

Zhang Ben's eyes flashed, and he looked at Li Zichun in surprise, what did he mean by this?

Give a hundred gold and let yourself let him go?

Don't say a hundred gold, it's a thousand gold, ten thousand gold, he doesn't dare! As if seeing what Zhang Ben was thinking, Li Zichun whispered: "I will pay 100 gold, just ask County Lieutenant Zhang to go to King Zhao's mansion, give a message to King Zhao on my behalf, and ask King Zhao to come forward to protect me!" ”

This is a lot of work for Zhang Ben, he pondered for a moment, nodded, and said, "Yes." ”

Li Zichun couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief when he saw that Zhang Ben agreed.

With his friendship with King Zhao, as long as King Zhao knew that he was in trouble, he would definitely do his best to help him.

This time, he provoked the Son of Heaven, dared to intercede for himself in front of the Son of Heaven, and there were people who could ask for mercy, and in the whole world, I am afraid that there is only the Son of Heaven's own uncle, Liu Liang, the king of Zhao.

Now, Li Zichun is pinning all his hopes on Liu Liang.

Let's say that Liu Xiu, after returning to the palace, immediately asked Zhang Kun to take someone to send Luo You to the Tai Hospital and handed him over to the Tai Doctor for treatment.

He himself sent Yin Lihua back to the West Palace.

On the way, Liu Xiu was silent, her brows furrowed.

Yin Lihua has calmed down, after all, this is not the first time she has encountered such a thing.

She looked at Liu Xiu and asked, "What is Your Majesty thinking?" ”

Liu Xiu said quietly, "How did the assassins learn about our whereabouts? ”

His departure from the palace this time was not arranged in advance, but improvised.

He and Lihua secretly went out of the palace in casual clothes, not to mention that the ministers didn't know, even inside the palace, few people knew, but the assassins were able to grasp their whereabouts, blend into the Drunken Xiang Pavilion, disguise themselves as buddies, approach themselves, and wait for the opportunity to assassinate, is Gongsun Shu's eyeliner in Luoyang really so powerful?

Do they know everything they do?

This made Liu Xiu have to wonder if there was a problem around him.

Otherwise, the whole thing doesn't make sense.

Liu Xiu was silent for a while, and continued: "The people who knew that we were out of the palace, except for Zhang Kun, Luo You, Long Yuan, and Xu Ying, were only Xue Ying and Red Notes. ”

Yin Lihua's heart was shocked, she looked at Liu Xiu in shock and horror, and asked, "Your Majesty suspects Xue Ying and the red note?" ”
