Chapter 324: Xu Jingzong is back

Long Chen hunched his waist without hesitation and ran towards the cart with his memory. The sound of swishing in his ears continued, and he only felt that his heart had never beaten so fast in his life.

Suddenly, his center of gravity was unstable and he threw himself straight towards the ground, Long Chen was so annoyed that he wanted to slap his mouth, but he actually forgot the distance. Planted headlong on the cart, the loud sound immediately attracted a large number of bows and arrows.

He hurriedly turned over and blocked himself with a cart, dragging the cart towards the end of the street, the sound of the wheels rattling was particularly loud in the night, and he was not stupid to walk in a straight line, but it was all safe.

At this moment, I heard Shijie's domineering voice from the street: "Brothers, come and hack these bastards with your swords, they have no bows and arrows." ”

Long Chen was overjoyed, pulled out the sword on his waist and rushed forward, and the others also screamed and killed, this year's scholar is not a scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, and there are not a few people with excellent martial arts.

Chu Moxuan stood on the left and right of several seriously injured classmates with a sword in his right hand to guard them, but he looked relaxed at the moment, and he was very confident in his classmates.

The battle didn't last long, and the other side left two corpses and withdrew, not in love with war at all. Long Chen had clothes tied to his hands and looked relaxed.

Shijie shook the long sword in his hand and couldn't get enough of it, if it wasn't for someone who was seriously injured and rushed to treat it, he would definitely catch up and kill the remaining few people.

"What the hell? Go and pull the cart over, light some torches, and we'll go back at once, and I don't know what happened to the Master. ”

Everyone is worried, no one has been patrolling the night for so long, and no one has come to them to fight, which shows that things are not ordinary!

The mansion where Cai Cong was living was very peaceful, Cai Cong was even asleep, several assassins touched into the compound, and before they could rejoice, they were surrounded by a swarm of guards, how could a few people be able to block a hundred and ten people? Being chopped into meat sauce alive by the angry guards, Fang Yuan couldn't stop him if he wanted to keep a living mouth.

I had to order someone to drag the meat sauce down to feed the dogs, wash and mop the floor, and sprinkle spices to cover the smell of blood, so as not to affect the Hou Ye's sleep. By the time Shijie strode to the mansion, the smell of blood had already dissipated, and Fang Yuan met him.

Knowing that the student was attacked and killed, and the city defense patrolling the night did not appear, he squinted his eyes and smiled coldly. There was not even a trace of commotion in the attack on Cai Cong, to say that the city defense did not patrol at night to protect Cai Cong, unless they had the ability to predict the future.

"Command me to take down the city patrol officer, send 3,000 troops and horses into the city, and the first thing to do is to search for the traces of the assassins from house to house, but anyone who collects strangers and hides them and does not report them will be imprisoned and punished! Whistleblowers are rewarded. Send someone to the city gate to ask, there are people who want to leave the city tonight under the pressure of official positions. ”

Fang Yuan said fiercely, Cai Cong only brought a thousand people to live in the city, and he had to divide his manpower to take over the city gate, he transferred three thousand people into the city this time, and the shock was great.

"Shijie, you go back and tell Chu Moxuan that they take care of their injuries, and the next thing will be handled by us, you take care of your injuries, and when we have put the cow ghost and snake god in order, it will be the time for you to show your strength." After Fang Yuan finished speaking, he asked Shijie to go back, and he began to dispatch people from all walks of life.

After more than an hour, the city patrol officer was pressed in front of Fang Yuan, he was about to fall to the ground in two trembling strands, and he was speechless to Shang Yuan's red eyes.

"Why did the city defense leave their posts without permission tonight?"

"Return, back guards, we are all on patrol at night, and we have never left our posts without permission!" The city patrol said tremblingly, his tone was firm, but his flickering eyes had betrayed him.

"Drag it down and pull out all the fat out of him." Fang Yuan said without a trace of emotion, the city patrol officer's legs were weak when he landed, and he was also fortunate to see the fat pig being pulled into skin. The city patrol officer couldn't walk at all, and was dragged down by the guards.

"Don't smoke my flesh, let me go, let me go, I say, I'll say everything, I'll say everything, adult."

The city patrol struggled violently, and even kicked the guard in the stomach with his foot in a frenzy, but was smashed on the head by the angry guard, and kicked him several times.

"That's enough, drag him in."

Fang Yuan said lightly, personally stepped forward to wipe the blood off his head, and said gently: "That's right, tell me obediently that you don't have to be pumped." ”

"My lord, my lord, I said, it was the Zhou family who gave me five hundred taels of gold, and asked me not to arrange for someone to go to Dongdajie to patrol the night tonight, you Mingjian, I really didn't know that they wanted to harm you!"

The city patrol officer shouted in a panic, and Fang Yuan patted his cheek lightly: "Drag it down, pump the meat, pump it until he says it." ”

"Send someone to his house to check and see if there really are five hundred taels of gold." Looking at the city patrol officer who was dragged down in the wailing, Fang Yuan said coldly, if he still said that the Zhou family gave him money until he died, then he could be trusted.

When Cai Cong got up in the morning, he found that something was wrong, the world was in chaos, soldiers came and went on the street, and there was not a single pedestrian in sight, but some people were dragged on the road with chains.

"What's going on? In one night, you turned Taiyuan City over? Cai Cong looked at Fang Yuan and them angrily, it was strange that the people did not panic in this way.

"Master, in addition to the assassins attacking our side last night, Chu Moxuan and them were also attacked, and they were used by archers. The younger one was afraid that they had eight oxen crossbows, so they ordered the whole city to be searched. As a result, two bodies were found in a ruined temple.

In addition, we also caught a few assassins outside the Zhou family and tortured them all night before they spit out the truth, they were ordered to kill Zhou Tao's eldest son and several old men of the Zhou family. Recently, it has been rumored that the Zhou family wants to take revenge on Hou Ye, if they didn't just save them last night, they would definitely say that Hou Ye killed them. ”

Fang Yuan's words made Cai Cong's heart chill, what is the Eight Bull Crossbow? It was used to siege the city, and the crossbow arrows more than three meters long were nailed to the city wall and could only be seen for more than two meters.

"It's clear, you can just watch what to do, remember not to disturb the people, fight away, if you lose the hearts of the people, it will be a big trouble."

"Don't worry, we have explained the situation to the people before every search, and no one in the whole army dares to take the opportunity to disturb the people, and the people are all on our side."

Fang Yuan said immediately, Cai Cong nodded, and asked with a gloomy face, "Where is Xu Jingzong?" ”

Cai Cong never thought that Li Shimin actually sent Xu Jingzong to seize his military power, and he didn't expect Xu Jingzong to understand Li Shimin's mind so much, and when he arrived in Chang'an, he never mentioned that Cai Cong would rebel, only saying that Cai Cong seemed to be in trouble again, as if he wanted to kill all the officials in Hedong Province, so frightened that Li Shimin immediately sent him to take over the military power.

When Meng Baolai got the news, he immediately sent people to inform Cai Cong non-stop, otherwise Cai Cong would still be in the dark!
