Chapter 247: Shocking Assassination (I)
On the first day of the first month of May, on the first day of the fifth month, the capital will meet, and hundreds of civil and military officials, clan relatives and noble relatives will all enter the Daming Hall to worship the Son of Heaven and discuss state affairs.
At this time, outside the Lingxing Gate in the south of the palace, on both sides of the thousand-step royal road in front of the Imperial Court Cardinal's Zhongshu Provincial Office, there were countless cowardly Xue Wei wearing iron armor and steel skulls and holding big bows and axes. These cowardly guards are both guards and guards of honor. Coupled with the strict guards on both sides of the gate, the royal road at this moment has become the most heavily guarded area in the entire capital.
You must know that on the first and fifteenth days of each month, there are two great court meetings, and this royal road brings together more than eighty percent of the imperial relatives and high-ranking officials and ministers of the Mengyuan Empire. To put it mildly, as long as a sky-shattering thunder is thrown into the crowd, the entire Great Yuan Dynasty will be paralyzed immediately.
Because of this, although nothing happened to the founding of the Great Yuan for decades, the security guard never dared to be careless, and even the Great Khan's pro-army cowardly Xue Wei became a sentry.
When the time is right, the drum is tee, and the door is wide open. The Mongolian and Han ministers who were crowded in front of the door got off their horses and got off the carriage one after another, straightened their crowns, pinned their waists, greeted each other, laughed and laughed, and then resigned to each other and walked into the gate. Cars and horses continued to appear, and the ministers who arrived one by one hurriedly joined them.
The clansmen and ministers all went to court, and the chariots they rode in were pulled by the drivers and guards, and with the guidance of the palace guards, the chariots and horses were parked in the designated place in the square far away from the gate.
At this moment, there was a lot of traffic in front of the gate, and the flow of people was like a tide, but under the skillful drainage of the guide palace guards, and the coachmen and drivers of the ministers were all good at controlling the horses, the scene seemed to be chaotic, but in fact everything was in order.
As the leader of the palace guards, Lu Jiucheng, the left prison guard, was trembling at this time, walking on thin ice, lest he make the slightest mistake. This errand is not easy to do, it should be done well, and if it is not done well, it will lose its head at any time. Of course, there are also benefits, at least up to the king of the super grade sect, down to the guard driver of the fourth rank minister, everyone can be familiar with the face - why the fourth rank minister? Because those who can be qualified to participate in the court meeting must be at least high-ranking officials of the fourth rank or above, and they are not qualified if they are young.
Don't look at these guards and pilots are all subordinates, but they can go with them, all of them are people who can speak in front of their own adults, and they make good friends, and they often have unexpected benefits.
No, what Lu Jiucheng personally guided at the moment was the car of Sang Ge, the governor of the political affairs. Sang Ge is very hot at the moment, he is very favored, and he is exquisite, and he is good friends with the kings and magnates, and it has long been rumored in the court that he will sooner or later be able to replace Pingzhang political affairs Ahma as the prime minister. It is precisely because of this that Lu Jiucheng hurried over to hug his thighs and pull the relationship.
It's a pity that his hot face is plastered with a cold ass, and this time Sango has a new guard. This color-eyed man looked indifferent, looking at Lu Jiucheng's expression like a strict boss staring at a subordinate who made a mistake, making him smile like a man's back.
Suddenly, the guard stopped his mount: "Wait. ”
Lu Jiucheng looked up and said, "What's ......?"
The guard smiled at the guard rider driving a car coming from the side, "Uncle Cheng, it's been a long time." ”
The car stopped, and the knight of the guard replied, "It turned out to be Brother Said, who disappeared for a while." ”
"By the way, the thing that Brother Shu Cheng said last time has eyebrows......"
As soon as the two guards talked, the two cars naturally stopped.
Lu Jiucheng glanced at it and recognized that this was the chariot and horse of Zhang Hongzhong, the seventh son of Cai Guogong and Zhang Rou. I am puzzled, this Yizhou Zhang family has gradually declined since the death of Cai Guogong, coupled with the defeat and death of Zhang Hongfan, the political affairs of Pingzhang last year, Zhang's momentum in the court is not as good as before, from the fragrant gluttony in the eyes of the courtiers to tasteless chicken ribs. With the lustful nature of Sang Ge, how could his guards greet Zhang Hongzhong's guards with such a smile and enthusiasm?
When Lu Jiucheng was surprised, he didn't notice that the board under the vehicle he was guiding was quietly being removed, and two slender masked women in gray power suits and black boxes slid out of the car like snakes. Then, under the cover of two vans at an angle, he quickly rolled under Zhang Hongzhong's carriage, pushed open the bottom of the car that had already passed his hands and feet, and quietly sneaked into the car.
As soon as the two women entered the car, they immediately pulled off their scarves - it was the first sniper combination of Ding Xiaoyi and Li Runan.
Ding Xiaoyi quickly untied the black box, opened the lid of the box, took out a special extended three-shot shotgun, installed the scope, and filled it with three single-headed bullets. Li Runan, who was on the side, took out the butt, chassis, triangular bracket and other equipment from his black box to increase shooting accuracy and fixed equipment, and quickly placed them next to the window.
Ding Xiaoyi fixed the shotgun firmly on the equipment, his hands were resting, his right cheek was lightly attached to the butt of the gun, his breathing was steady, his eyes were focused and bright, the muzzle of the gun slowly poked the curtain of the car, and the doji in the scope slowly scanned the crowd.
Li Runan pulled out two pistols from his waist, loaded the bullets, approached the window, and couldn't help but sigh: "If you carry the dragon roar cannon to shoot at this royal road...... Tsk, the Tartar kingdom is half destroyed. ”
Ding Xiaoyi glanced at her: "You go and carry it, I'll bang it, okay?" ”
Li Ru sneered, and immediately his face turned straight, and his sharp eyes scanned quickly like an eagle, and quickly locked: "Look, Brother Sang is there." ”
"See." Ding Xiaoyi stared at the tall, thin, deep-eyed man in front of the gate, who had a harmless smile on his face, "He's waiting for the target." ”
Li Runan raised his thumb, squinted his eyes and measured it, then licked his wet fingers and leaned out of the window to measure the wind, and said: "Eighty-five paces away, the wind speed is gentle, but there are many unrelated targets, and the shooting range is seriously disturbed, so you must snipe within the number of breaths I gave." ”
"Understood." Ding Xiaoyi locked on Brother Sang, "Did you see Yang Zheng and Han Tiehu?" ”
"Nope. Supposedly, they should have jumped into the carriage of the Mongolian Tatar official named Zhang Hui, just like us. Li Runan's eyes wandered, and he said after a while, "I don't see which one is the car of Zhongshu Youcheng." ”
Ding Xiaoyi snorted lightly: "Then it doesn't matter, as long as I, Ding Xiaoyi, pick up the gun, it doesn't matter if there is their group or not." ”
Li Runan smiled silently and diverted the topic: "Zhang Hongzhong, Zhang Hui." Hmph, it seems that these two guys have offended people hard enough, and they have been blamed like this. ”
Ding Xiaoyi snorted coldly: "Two national thieves, it's not a pity to die, it's better to have a few more." ”
The two chatted about this, and the car was quiet for a while. The second daughter listened to the chat of the two guards outside the car from time to time, and she could hear that Zhang Hongzhong's guard tone was a little impatient, but the head of the family is now out of power, but the other party is a powerful minister's attendant, and she can't afford to offend, so she can only accompany her patiently.
The second daughter was secretly worried, for fear that after a long time, she would not be able to hold back Zhang Hongzhong's guards.
The officials under the gate entered one after another, the number of officials staying became fewer and fewer, the crowd was scarce, and slowly a few stranded cars became more and more eye-catching.
The second daughter was secretly anxious, but there was no way to be in a hurry at the moment, so she could only wait.
In the distance, there was a crisp sound of hooves, and on the corner of the street came a luxury van made of glittering gold from the spokes of the wheels to the wheels, and embellished with red, blue, green and other precious stones.
Sang Ge, who was also waiting anxiously under the gate, finally breathed a sigh of relief, laughed and greeted him, and saluted his chest at the golden carriage from a distance, and at the same time made a gesture that was not incomprehensible to the hands behind his back.
"It's coming!" The two goddesses were in love, and their eyes were shining.
The carriage stopped, the driver jumped out of the carriage vigorously, bent down to lower the pedals, the gold-encrusted and diamond-encrusted door opened from the inside, and a handsome and clever young man stepped out of the carriage with a short and fat official wearing a cymbal crown and a purple court uniform.
The pedals creaked with the heavy feet, and the thick beech wood was a little overwhelmed. As his fat body left the carriage, the whole carriage seemed to flick upwards slightly, and the dust was lightly lifted. The sturdy Arabian horse snorted in relief.
Sango smiled: "Allah is above, and it is a joy to see Lord Ahma. ”
Target - Meng Yuan Minister of Finance, Zhongshu Pingzhang Political Affairs Ahma, appeared.
