Chapter 99: Assassination Again (Ask for Recommendation Votes)
"Your Highness! Everything is ready, are we leaving for Chang'an? Cheng Wuting asked.
"Don't worry, I've already ordered someone to inform Di Renjie and Li Yifu of them, and when they arrive, it's not too late for us to return to Chang'an." Li Chengqian said.
"No!" Cheng Wu responded.
"Your Highness! Dali Temple Shaoqing Di Renjie, living room Li Yifu and others have arrived. As soon as Cheng Wuting's words fell, the sound of the guards came from the report.
It's really Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and just said that they were coming, so soon.
"Let them in." Li Chengqian shouted outside.
"No!" The guards were ordered to retreat, followed by footsteps outside, and then the door was opened.
Di Renjie, Li Yifu and others rushed in and saluted Li Chengqian: "Your Highness! ”
"The widow plans to return to Beijing! Do you need to rest here for a day before you go? Li Chengqian asked.
"His Royal Highness Lao is worried! We don't need to rest, we can leave for Beijing!" Li Yifu said.
"Okay, what about you?" Li Chengqian asked the others.
Li Yifu is unwilling to rest, it doesn't mean that others are not tired, as a prince, he can't favor one over the other, and others also need to be taken care of.
"We are not tired, and the rest of the people have not arrived, so the minister thinks it is better to wait for them, and it is not too late to set off." Di Renjie said.
"It's good!" Li Chengqian nodded and agreed with Di Renjie.
Everyone waited at the inn for others to meet, and soon Xu Jingzong and others came one after another, and after resting for a while, they set off back to Chang'an.
In the central county town, in a teahouse, by the window on the second floor, there are four people wearing hats sitting at a table.
The white veil on the hat blocked their faces, and they couldn't see their appearance clearly, only knowing that they were three men and one woman.
These four people were the assassins sent by Wu Weiliang and others to assassinate Li Chengqian.
"Chief, the target is out of the city!" A man walked up from downstairs, looked around the entire second floor, and after spotting the four of them, came to them and reported.
"In what direction!" The female leader asked.
"Chang'an!" Come humanely.
"Let's go, we'll intercept them halfway." One of the male leaders said.
There were city guards in the city, and there were many people here, which was not conducive to their assassination, so they changed their original plan and intercepted Li Chengqian and others outside the city.
After following Li Chengqian and others for a distance, far away from the central county town, these people began to attack Li Chengqian and others.
"Whoosh"
Suddenly, arrows shot from both sides of the road, and Cheng Wuting and the others hurriedly waved the weapons in their hands to block.
"Not good! There is an enemy attack! Hurry up!" Cheng Wuting and others were shocked!
Hundreds of figures on the left and right sides slaughtered them, and everyone hurriedly gathered around the carriage.
Wang Fangyi stretched out his hand to pick up his bow and arrows, stretched out his bow and arrows, and shot them at the enemy who had killed.
Wang Fangyi shot six arrows in an instant, and the arrows hit the attacking assassin, but even so, they couldn't stop the assassin's action.
"Bocheng, the two of you will lead a team of people to stay on defense to protect the prince and you, and I will kill the enemy with Cheng Wuting and Xingjian." Wang Fangyi instantly assigned everyone's responsibilities.
"Good!" Long Zhi, Cheng Wuting and others responded.
They immediately split up in a group and followed the king's wings to kill the Assassins who rushed towards them.
The two sides exchanged hands in an instant, with Wang Fangyi's side having an overall advantage in force and the assassins having an advantage in numbers.
For a while, the two sides could not help the other, and maintained a balance.
After a long time, there will inevitably be a weak side, and when the time comes, the strong side will be able to win an overwhelming victory.
The four Assassin leaders stood side by side in the woods, hiding in the shadows and watching their fight.
"Who the hell are these people? The strength is not bad, if we don't have the advantage in numbers, I'm afraid we won't be able to take them. A leader on the left said.
"I don't know, the lord only asked us to assassinate the people in the carriage, and he didn't explain the identity of the other party, and I didn't know that the other party's guards actually had such good skills." The companion beside him shook his head.
"I'm afraid that even the lord doesn't know who this person is! I heard that it was the people in the palace who asked the lord to do this. The companion on the right said.
"Don't talk about these useless things, let's not watch here, get rid of them as soon as possible, and go back to the lord to give an account, so as not to have too many dreams at night." The female leader said this, and rushed out.
Although this is far away from the central county, this is still the boundary of Fangzhou after all, and if it is discovered, their plan to assassinate will be in vain.
When the time comes, how to explain to their lord when they go back, this time they come out, the lord will explain thousands of things, and only succeed!
The three of them followed closely and killed Pei Xingjian, and they found that Pei Xingjian was the weakest of the three Wang Fangyi and Cheng Wuting.
Persimmon should be pinched softly, and in the eyes of the four of them, this Pei Xingjian is undoubtedly the best soft persimmon.
The cold light flashed, and the knife slashed through the throat of an assassin, and hot blood gushed out from the wound, splashing Pei Xingjian's face.
Looking at the four people who killed him, Pei Xingjian understood that the other party was treating him as a soft persimmon.
Pei Xingjian is not afraid! Instead, he was a little overjoyed, and slashed at the four Assassin leaders with his sword, slashing several times in succession.
Pei Xingjian forced back the leader of the assassins, and one of them almost died under Pei Xingjian's knife, but fortunately, his companion reacted in time and pulled him, and now he has become a corpse.
The four of them were shocked! I secretly said in my heart: Why is the other party so strong.
In fact, it is not that Pei Xingjian is too strong, but that the strength of the four of them is too weak, so naturally they will not be Pei Xingjian's opponents.
The four of them joined forces, if they didn't die, they would lose both, and maybe they might even kill Pei Xingjian.
At this time, the four of them have already retreated, it doesn't matter if they can kill the person in front of them, the important thing is that they are still alive.
The four of them stared at Pei Xingjian and slowly retreated, and the surrounding assassins immediately rushed up and killed Pei Xingjian.
Pei Xingjian waved the Mo knife in his hand, killed the two assassins on the spot, and stepped back, avoiding the knife on the right.
A backhand slash to the left, slashing at the knife slashed by the Assassin on the left.
A sharp arrow shot from behind Pei Xingjian, clinging to his ear, into the hands of the four Assassins, killing one of the Assassin leaders.
In front of the carriage, Ryuji held a bow in his hand, and the trembling bowstring proved that he had just shot the arrow of the Assassin leader.
"What should we do now?" Seeing her companion being shot, the female leader was a little frightened!
"The three of us will retreat into the forest first, we will bring a lot of people, and if we grind them slowly, we can also grind them to death." One of them.
The female leader and the other leader agreed to his proposal, and hurried to turn and run into the woods.
Seeing this, Ryuji immediately drew his bow again and fired three arrows at the leader of the assassins, due to the distance and the fact that they had already taken precautions.
The three arrows shot by Ryuji failed to make a difference.
