New 8#1 Chinese Network {γ Plain text Internet Novel Network
Sima Lan is old and thinks a lot of things, so she sleeps late every day in Beijing, and now in Pinglin, she naturally sleeps even later.
In the second half of the night, sitting in the tent, he was drowsy and asleep, and the soldiers guarding outside the door did not dare to wake up, until he heard an urgent cry, Sima Lan woke up, and when he opened his eyes, there were several more people in the tent.
Sima Lan was immediately a little displeased.
When he was alone, he never liked to be brought in without being told, and although he had seen that these people were his cronies, his face was still not good-looking.
Seeing Sima Lan wake up, someone on the side had already handed over a hot towel, Sima Lan took the towel and wiped his face, only to find that the few people who came in were all dignified, faintly feeling that something was wrong, and frowned: "What's wrong?" β
"Yes..... Emperor! Huangfu Zheng took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Guogong, the emperor has been assassinated!" β
"Assassinated?" Sima Lan was stunned for a moment, then his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly got up and said, "Where was the assassination?" How is the emperor now? β
Huang Fuzheng said softly: "Just now Gonggong Liu sent someone over to communicate, but when he saw that Guogong was sleeping, he didn't dare to wake up, and the camp of the lower official was on the side, so he went over to report to the lower official." After a pause, he continued: "Half an hour ago, the emperor returned to the big tent, and Gonggong Liu sent someone to say that the emperor seemed to be injured. β
"What time is it?" Sima Lan asked in a deep voice.
Chen Lanting said on the side: "It's already ugly." β
"It's ..... when it's ugly!" Sima Lan frowned and said, "Didn't the emperor go hunting at night?" Why was he injured? β
"It is said that in the middle of the mountains and forests, I encountered an ambush by assassins." Huangfu Zheng lowered his voice and said: "The emperor was shot with an arrow, but the injury was not serious, only some flesh and skin. β
"Assassins?" Sima Lan realized that something was wrong: "Pinglin has already been cleaned, where did the assassins come from to ambush?" Can you catch an assassin? β
Huangfu Zheng said: "I heard that almost all of the assassins have been killed, and one assassin was injured and brought back, and now it is in the hands of the guards, and the guards are interrogating. β
Sima Lan narrowed his eyes, the lights flickered, he pondered for a moment before he said, "The old man is going to see the emperor." Going straight out of the tent, Huangfu Zheng had already stopped and said: "Guogong is slow!" β
Sima Lan stopped, turned around, and Huangfu Zheng stepped forward and said: "Guogong, the emperor has mobilized soldiers and horses, and this side of the camp has been blocked, and all officials are not allowed to enter and exit without authorization, and those who violate the order will be punished for the crime of rebellion." β
Sima Lan's eyes showed surprise, and he immediately walked out of the big tent, looked around, and saw that around the camp, there were many officials who had come out of the tent, and whispered in their ears.
Sima Lan looked solemn and walked in the direction of the emperor's tent, and the emperor Fuzheng and other cadres followed behind, and sure enough, after walking out of the road, he saw officers and soldiers holding spears and knives, surrounding the outer circle of the camp.
Sima Lan stepped forward, the soldier immediately saluted, Sima Lan glanced at it, and said in a deep voice: "What are you doing here?" β
Seeing a subordinate general running to the side, he saluted Sima Lan and said: "Guogong, the emperor was assassinated, in order to prevent the assassins from sneaking into the camp and injuring the ministers, the emperor has an order to protect this place strictly." β
Sima Lan nodded slightly, and then walked forward, and the general raised his hand

Said: "Guogong, you .....!" β
"What a bold man, he dares to stop the Guogong!" An official behind Sima Lan shouted, "How many heads do you have?" β
The general said: "Guogong, the emperor has a will, in order to ensure everyone's safety, no one is allowed to leave this place without authorization, Guogong, you ......!" β
Sima Lan sneered, staring at the general, the general lowered his head, obviously afraid, Sima Lan didn't talk nonsense, and went straight over, and the officials behind him were about to follow, and there were already soldiers on the side who "choked" and pulled out their knives, blocking the way, and Huangfu Zheng said angrily: "Get out of the way!" β
The general said in a deep voice: "Do you want to resist the decree? The emperor's order is in his body, and those who disobey the holy order will be killed! Although he didn't dare to stop Sima Lan, he was unceremonious to his ministers.
Sima Lan turned around and said, "You wait here." β
Sima Lan walked all the way to the emperor's camp, and before he got close to the emperor's tent, he felt that the atmosphere was solemn, and a large number of soldiers were guarding around the camp, looking at the armor and clothing, all of them were officers and soldiers of the royal guard.
He hesitated for a moment, and faintly felt that something was wrong, but he still walked into the camp, and the Zhenguo Gong entered the camp, but no one dared to stop him, until he got to the emperor's big tent, and saw Chi Fengdian standing in front of the big tent, his hand pressing the handle of the saber on his waist.
Seeing Sima Lan coming, Chi Fengdian stepped forward to greet him a few steps, and arched his hand: "The humble general will meet the prince!" β
"How is the emperor now?" Sima Lan asked, "I heard that the emperor was assassinated while hunting, what happened?" β
Chi Fengdian hesitated for a moment, stopped talking, Sima Lan's face sank, and Chi Fengdian hurriedly said: "Back to the Duke of the Kingdom, tonight the emperor is suddenly interested, and he wants to go into the forest to hunt, and the humble general and Chu Cangge are accompanied by him." Entering the forest, the emperor went into the depths of the forest in order to chase an elk, and was suddenly injured by the assassin who was ambushed in the forest, fortunately I arrived in time, otherwise I would .....! β
"Why are there assassins in the woods?" Sima Lan frowned and said, "You have the responsibility of protecting the Holy Lord, and you actually let the Holy Lord be assassinated, are you guilty?" β
"Guogong, Chu Cangge was by the emperor's side at that time." Chi Fengdian's eyes became cold: "Chu Cangge claims to be familiar with hunting, and he is good at finding traces of prey, it is he who led the emperor into the depths of the forest .....!" β
Sima Lan's face changed slightly, looked around, and asked, "Where is Chu Cangge?" β
"We're looking for him too." Chi Fengdian's voice was cold: "We arrived in time and immediately chased and killed those assassins, Chu Cangge and a few guards stayed by the emperor's side to protect, I thought it was foolproof, but ..... We didn't expect that Chu Cangge would harbor evil intentions and suddenly attack the emperor. β
Sima Lan's face changed greatly, his body shook violently, and he said sharply: "What did you say?" Chu Cangge..... Assassinating the Emperor? β
Chi Fengdian didn't answer immediately, he groaned slightly, and then said: "The emperor knows that the old country guild is coming, and the emperor is raising him, so he ordered that no one will be seen for the time being, but if the old country prince comes, Ling Bei will take the old country to see something." β
"What's that?"
Chi Fengdian raised his hand and said, "Guogong, please!" "It's no nonsense, just walk up, Sima Lan's expression was solemn, his eyes showed suspicion, hesitated, or followed Chi Fengdian, walked to a small tent on the side, Chi Fengdian lifted the tent door, Sima Lan entered the tent, there were two pillars of fire erected in the house, very bright, Sima Lan only saw a mat on the ground in the center of the tent, and there was obviously a person lying on the mat, but

Cover with a black cloth.
Chi Fengdian followed in, Sima Lan glanced at him and asked, "Who is this?" β
Chi Fengdian arched his hand and said: "Guogong, the humble general has the courage to ask, has Guogong heard of the saying of ten swords and five swords?" β
"Ten swords and five swords?" Sima Lan didn't understand why Chi Fengdian suddenly mentioned this at this time, and said, "The old man has heard a little. It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that there are ten famous swords in the world, Tianzhu is the first, and there are five famous swords, Kunwu is the first, Chi Fengdian, why did you mention this? β
"That Guogong naturally knows that among the five famous swords, the second one is called the Dog God Knife!" Chi Fengdian's eyes were like torches, and he said in a deep voice: "And the current owner of the Dog God Sword is none other than Chu Cangge!" β
Sima Lan's eyebrows tightened, but he still bowed his head and said: "Yes, the Dog God Sword is indeed in Chu Cangge's hands." β
Chi Fengdian walked to the edge of the mat, squatted down, and said: "This person is one of the guards warriors who accompanied him tonight, called Liang Xiong, thirty-one years old, and has been on an errand in the Guards for four years, and his background file can be found in both the Guards and the Military Department. β
Sima Lan frowned and said, "Liang Xiong? He..... He's dead? β
Chi Fengdian lifted the black scarf, Sima Lan suddenly smelled a rather strong smell of blood, couldn't help but raise his hand to cover his nose, and approached, the corpse was wearing a hunting suit, it was indeed a middle-aged man, under the light, there was a knife mark on the neck of the corpse, which was clearly visible and very conspicuous.
"..... this?" Sima Lan vaguely guessed something.
Chi Fengdian covered the corpse with a black cloth and said, "The Dog Divine Sword ranks second among the five famous knives, it is extremely sharp, and it is a first-class divine weapon. This kind of divine weapon is naturally different from ordinary products, and the knife edge drawn is also easy to identify. β
"This person was killed by Chu Cangge?" Sima Lan said coldly.
Chi Fengdian nodded and said, "Exactly." When we were chasing the assassin, Chu Cangge suddenly attacked the emperor, and the guards guarding the emperor's side tried their best to protect the emperor, we heard the movement, and immediately returned to help, at that time Chu Cangge had already killed Liang Xiong, we knew that he was good at martial arts, and dealt with it with arrows, but Chu Cangge was frenzied, and used Liang Xiong's corpse as a shield to resist. β
Sima Lan frowned and said, "Where is Chu Cangge now?" β
"This person is cunning and cunning, he took advantage of the chaos to escape, and the emperor has issued an order to send people to search and arrest." Chi Fengdian raised his hand and invited Sima Lan out of the tent before continuing: "This autumn hunt, but when such a thing happened, the emperor was furious, and ordered to find out the real culprit and punish him severely. β
"The real murderer?" The corners of Sima Lan's eyes twitched.
Chi Fengdian said: "Pinglin is heavily guarded, why can the assassins sneak in? When did they sneak in? Did the emperor just run into them on a night hunt tonight, or did they know in advance, so they were ambushed in the woods? Who sent these assassins, and why did they have to assassinate the emperor? After a pause, he continued: "Chu Cangge is the commander of the Black Knife Battalion and is deeply favored by the emperor, but why he took the opportunity to assassinate the emperor, these are naturally to be investigated one by one. β
Sima Lan's face became ugly, staring at Chi Fengdian, but Chi Fengdian did not look at him, and continued: "The emperor went out to hunt tonight, and did not inform the lords, logically speaking, no one will know in advance and then set up an ambush, but if someone around the emperor leaks the news and is known about the emperor's whereabouts, then it is very possible to set up an ambush in advance." He sneered: "The emperor has ordered a thorough investigation of the eunuchs around him, let's see if these eunuchs have leaked the news, and if so, who has leaked the news to?" β
