Chapter 102: An Accidental Assassination
For two days, quietly passed, inside and outside Jicheng, it was still calm and peaceful. The market is open, business travels come and go, the people in the market, and the parents are short, and they have never been cut off. On the side of the government, except for the guards of the city, the inventory of entering and leaving the city is a little strict, there is nothing else unusual.
It's just that with the passage of time, the undercurrent inside and outside Jixian County is surging bigger and bigger, and it is about to erupt. The Governor's Mansion was a little too calm, and in the eyes of the rebel party who was watching in the dark, Di Renjie was still at a loss and didn't know that the crisis was near.
With a fire of personal soldiers, he went to the four cities of Youzhou to inspect the city defense. When Hu Jinghui's identity was revealed, Di Fatpang was missing a usable person by his side, and the burden on Yuan Hui's body naturally increased.
"Senior brother, this waiting day is not easy......" Following Yuan Hui's side, Yun Gu muttered in a low voice.
"What, you're in a hurry?" Turning his head to look at the little beauty, Yuan Hui asked with a smile.
With a pout, Yun Gu sighed and said, "Until now, I still don't know when those rebels will start and what their plans are, so you are not in a hurry at all?" ”
Descending along the city wall, looking up at the west, it is already evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun is sprinkled in the city of Jixian County. The view of the city gives people a comfortable and pleasant feeling.
Yuan Hui smiled, and said very pretending to be X: "Don't worry, they can't make any big waves!" ”
To put it mildly, it sets off Yuan Hui's strong self-confidence. Yun Gu bent her eyes slightly, looking at Yuan Langjun's handsome face, some stubble has grown around her lips in the past few days, and she looks even more handsome......
"Senior brother, I'm confused!" Looking back at the soldiers hanging behind, the little beauty asked softly: "If you let Long Feng and Xiangjun rob those official money, aren't you afraid of annoying that Jin Mulan?" After all, this will put the government on guard, and maybe it will affect her plans......"
"Also, aren't you afraid that Di Renjie will find out about our Iron Hand Regiment?"
"It's not a big problem,......" Yuan Hui calmly replied four words.
"Di Renjie may be confused about our identity now, and even afraid of our mysterious force, but he doesn't have the time and energy to investigate deeply. As for the Golden Mulan...... Hehe, she made a stupid move and trapped herself in a cage, where can she take care of us? Yuan Hui sneered: "As for those people under him, they can't get into my eyes." ”
A confident man is always full of charm, the chivalrous beauties around him, her eyes are shining, the autumn waves are flowing, she stared at Yuan Hui for a while, and she was a little shy......
"Counting this robbery, the one million yuan promised to my father, but there is still half ...... missing," Yuan Hui sighed faintly.
Hearing this, Yun Gu whispered: "Senior brother, what's wrong with Yangzhou, can't you go back?" ”
Jian Mei squeezed, and Yuan Hui turned his head to look at her.
Seeing this, Yun Gu raised her head and looked at her. Yuan Hui said softly: "You want me to go back?" ”
Slowly lowering her head, Yun Gu whispered: "After the matter in Youzhou is over, I will go back to Yangzhou......"
In the little beauty's tone, with some reluctance, Yuan Hui turned around and said lightly: "Then don't go back!" ”
Yun Gu was a little dumbfounded, opened her mouth, and finally didn't say anything more to persuade her. Thinking about the task that Yuan Qi gave her before leaving, it is estimated that it will not be completed...... Yuan Hui, where is it so easy to persuade.
Following the usual route, turning out of an alleyway, Yuan Hui suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Yun Gu asked.
Yuan Hui looked at a low mansion on the left, and then at a small forest on the right, it was too quiet...... His expression became serious, and his hand touched the horizontal knife at his waist.
Seeing this, Yun Gu also sensed that something was wrong, and put her right hand on the hilt of the sword.
I didn't have time to think about it, more than a dozen "whoosh" sounded, and more than a dozen sharp arrows broke through the air from the woods and went straight to Yuanhui.
His face changed slightly, Yuan Hui hurriedly pulled Yun Gu to evade, took out the knife to block, "ding" a few times, and was slammed into the dirt on the side by a few arrows.
"There are assassins!" At this time, the pro-soldiers behind him reacted, and one by one they pulled out their weapons and stepped forward to surround Yuan Hui.
It's a crossbow bolt! Yuan Hui's face was extremely ugly, this sudden assassination was completely unexpected. glanced at Yun Gu, the little beauty was fine.
A rush of footsteps came, and on the left and right, dozens of killers in various costumes suddenly rushed out, murderously rushing towards Yuan Hui.
"Protect the General!" The soldiers around him shouted.
The people under his command, all of whom were fierce soldiers, greeted them one by one without hesitation. In this case, Yuan Hui also personally joined the battle group to deal with the attack.
Yuan Hui's martial arts are not low, and with the presence of Yun Gu, a little master, even if there are many assassins, even if they are fierce, it will be difficult to take them down for a while.
There was another sound of breaking through the air, and a second round of crossbow arrows was fired, indistinguishable from the enemy's blow. Yuan Hui easily avoided it, but two of his own soldiers immediately fell, and those who surrounded and killed three were directly shot by their own people.
Resisting with all his might, Yuan Hui reaped the lives of the killers around him, his expression was extremely cold, and he was very angry.
The movement here quickly attracted the attention of the soldiers patrolling the city, and after a while, the soldiers on the street corner were already following the sound of killing.
Jumping up and cutting off the neck of a killer in front of him, Yuan Hui's hair suddenly stood on end, and the cold light flashed not far away, and there was an extremely slight sound, under the cover of the blazing sound of fighting, he came quickly and attacked Yuan Hui's front door.
His pupils were wide open, Yuan Hui subconsciously turned his head and turned around, screamed, spun around in the air weirdly, and fell to the ground.
"Senior Brother......
"General......
Not far away, the masked leader of the killers, with a hint of smugness flashing in his eyes, whistled and beckoned everyone to retreat. Before the support of the surrounding officers and soldiers arrived, the corpses were left behind and disappeared into the woods......
"Lost it all again?" In the Governor's Mansion, Di Renjie looked at Di Chun, who was dressed in tatters, and asked with his eyebrows.
After taking a sip of tea, Di Chun nodded: "In the past two days, at the back door of Tianbao Qianzhuang, a total of seven groups of people have entered and exited, and they are distributed to various places in the city, which is very cunning. ”
Di Chun's face was not very good-looking, he felt that he had done a bad job, and looked at Di Renjie embarrassedly.
"Didn't find out!" Di Renjie asked.
"It's just that the little ones are too cautious and don't dare to follow too closely, hanging far away, so easily they lose their target......"
Hearing this, Di Renjie breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Di Chun's expression, and said with a smile: "It's okay, at least it proves that there is indeed a problem with this Tianbao Money Village!" ”
Di Renjie stroked his beard wisely again.
"It's been hard for the past two days, you go down and rest!" Waving his hand, Di Renjie commanded: "Hmm...... Withdraw all those who are watching! ”
"Yes!"
"Tianbao Qianzhuang ......" muttered, the corners of Di Fat's mouth were full of meaning, and then a smile bloomed.
"My lord, it's not good!" One of the guards galloped into the hall, chanting.
Seeing this, Di Fatpang's heart tightened, and he quickly stretched out his hand and asked, "Don't worry, say it slowly, what's wrong?" ”
"Captain Xiguan came to report that General Yuan was attacked by assassins on the way to the city, and he was seriously injured and dying!" Panting, the guard reported.
"What!" Di Renjie's face finally changed, and he got up suddenly: "Where are the Yuanhui people now?" ”
"On its way back to the Governor's Mansion!"
