Chapter Eighty-Four: Fishing in Troubled Waters, Poisonous Needle Hiding IV

readx;?“ Leaving Chang'an and going to Anxi, he marched west from Qiuzi City to Hezhong, thinking that he could get rid of the fate of the caretaker forever. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info [Latest Chapter Reading] Who knows that after going around in a big circle, it is back to the old road, which is really disappointing! ”

Seeing that he was about to arrive in Pingkangfang, Wei Boyu's mood relaxed slightly.

Last winter, Wei Boyu, who had been promoted to brigade commander, was selected to escort Feng Changqing, the deputy envoy of Anxi Jiedu, to Beijing to participate in the Yuan-Ri Dynasty Meeting because of his outstanding skills.

Returning to the familiar Chang'an City, the prosperity as always made him happy, but only a day or two later, Wei Boyu found that deep down in his heart he began to miss Qiuzi far away in the west of the moraine.

After thinking about it for a long time, Wei Boyu suddenly realized that what he was nostalgic for was not the city of Qiuzi, but the robe in the city that shared weal and woe and the kind of pleasure that was wanton on the battlefield.

=== Detective Conan /===.

When accompanying Deputy Envoy Feng to visit Li Xiang, Wei Boyu took the opportunity to chat with his former colleagues in the Xiangfu Guard.

These guards, who were pampered under Li Xiangmen, did not agree with Wei Boyu's choice to go to Anxi and be born and die.

In their eyes, what can be more majestic in the world than Chang'an?

Where can Chang'an be more romantic than Pingkangfang?

Don't put it in the rich and gentle township, and run to the west of the moraine for no reason to ask for hardship, isn't it stupid?

"The Bird's Ambition!"

Wei Boyu looked down on his former colleagues more and more, and the palatial Prime Minister's Mansion suddenly became as cramped as a birdcage in his eyes.

On the way back from the western expedition to Shiguo, Wei Boyu and Cen Shen became more and more familiar, and they also learned a few words of literary crepe.

But Wei Boyu didn't expect that after Deputy Envoy Feng had a secret conversation with Li Xiang, he asked him to stay in Chang'an and be responsible for protecting Li Xiang's safety.

"Deputy Envoy Feng, I went to Anxi to join the army, but I don't want to do such a boring thing again!"

The anxious Wei Boyu roared out the dissatisfaction in his heart.

"I know that you don't want to enter the Prime Minister's Mansion Guard again, so I arranged for you to stay in the Anxi Academy as a school captain. But you don't have to worry about anything about the concert house, there is only one task, and that is to go all out to defend Li Xiang! ”

Feng Changqing's arrangement was very thoughtful.

"Aren't they all the same?"

"Captain"

The two words made Wei Boyu's anger disappear a little.

"How can it be the same?"

Feng Changqing shook his finger with a serious face: "Before, you were guarding Li Xiang to support your family, but now you are protecting Li Xiang for the entire Anxi!" ”

"Anthy?"

Wei Boyu was puzzled.

With his position as a brigade commander, it is not possible to get in touch with Anxi's core military strategy.

"Gao Jieshuai wanted to conquer Tibet, but he was helplessly obstructed, and only Li Xiang could fight for the opportunity for me to go to Anxi. And if Li Xiang is plotted by others, our army's plan will be ruined. In this way, of course, you are guarding Li Xiang for the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate. ”

Feng Changqing was concise and selectively explained the ins and outs.

"Conquer Tibet? That's great! ”

Wei Boyu was happy when he heard the battle.

"You have tens of thousands of expectations on your shoulders, but you must not be sloppy in the slightest!"

Feng Changqing saw that Wei Boyu was moved, and commanded directly.

"Deputy Envoy Feng, when will this drudgery end? Can I still catch up with the Battle of Tibet? ”

Wei Boyu never forgot to gallop on the battlefield and swing his sword to kill the enemy.

"Expedition to Tibet, you can't go to war anyway. But I'm afraid this errand won't last long......"

Feng Changqing thought of Li Linfu's sick body and sighed.

"It's boring!"

Wei Boyu was unhappy when he learned that he could not fight with the Tibetans.

"If you win the battle against Tibet, you will be asked to remember your first merit and be promoted to another general."

Feng Changqing generously promised.

"Alas, for the sake of a single general, I sold myself. At that time, I felt that I had made money, but recently, I felt that I was still deceived by the deputy envoy. ”

Wei Boyu remembered Feng Changqing's promise and laughed at himself.

The boring and boring life day after day made him regret it a little, and the Xiangfu guards were really not the same compared to the athletes of the Anxi Metropolitan Protectorate, which also made Wei Boyu more and more bored.

The sound of hooves and the crisp sound of bells.

Li Linfu's carriage was surrounded by guards and drove quickly towards Pingkangfang.

The curfew was not at all a constraint on the powerful Li Xiang, and the street envoys patrolling the streets avoided it after seeing Li Xiang's huge honor guard.

"A bunch of flashy guys, hanging so many bells at once, aren't they recruiting assassins?"

After experiencing the battlefield training, Wei Boyu looked down on the bells and whistles of the Xiangfu Guards.

Fortunately, Feng Changqing left ten Anxi soldiers under the command of Wei Boyu, which made him feel at ease.

"Hurry up and finish, I'm in a hurry to go back to Anxi! It seems that the expedition to Tibet has basically been decided, and I should be able to liberate myself soon. ”

Wei Boyu felt more and more bored about protecting Li Linfu, and Li Xiang came back so late tonight, it is said that he and Chen Xiang convened the military department, household department, etc. (this chapter is not finished, please turn the page) official office to discuss the amount of money and food for the Anxi army to go to the army.

Although Li Xiang likes to review official documents and summon his cronies to discuss secretly, it is inconvenient for him to recruit all the officials to his private house for discussion on such a serious military matter.

The carriage soon arrived at the wall of Pingkang Fang.

Since Li Linfu's mansion has a door on the wall, he can go back to the house directly without entering the door.

The noise of the carriages and horses had already alarmed the people guarding the front of the mansion, and the servants of the Li Mansion had already prepared their chariots and waited at the door.

Li Linfu has often had back pain recently, and he will feel uncomfortable after sitting in the carriage for a long time.

When the saint found out, he authorized him to use the chariot in the palace, which was not overstepping.

After the carriage was parked, before the door was opened, the Xiangfu guards turned over and dismounted, with a relaxed expression, standing around the carriage casually.

Only Wei Boyu and the ten Anxi soldiers still rode on their horses with their backs straight, tightly guarding between the carriage and the chariot, vigilant against the surrounding wind and grass.

The car door opened, and several maids stepped forward and helped the exhausted Li Xiang.

"Be careful!"

Wei Boyu suddenly noticed a sharp sound of breaking the air, and immediately drew his sword, exerted his legs, and flew towards the direction where Li Linfu was.

"There are assassins!"

Flying in mid-air, Wei Boyu roared loudly, his eyes wide open in the light of the torches, searching for the arrows sent by the assassin.

"Bastard, the arrows are painted black!"

Wei Boyu couldn't find the enemy's feather arrows everywhere, and after landing, he had no time to think, so he jumped again and blocked in front of Li Linfu.

"Ahh

Wei Boyu snorted, and a piercing pain came from his left shoulder.

"Kill!"

Wei Boyu endured the pain, roared loudly, and threw the horizontal knife in his left hand against the trajectory of the crossbow arrow.

However, the pain in his left arm still affected his strength, and the horizontal knife flew into the air and fell, posing no threat to the assassins hidden in the night.

"Li Xiang, hurry into the carriage! Anxi tooth soldiers, copy the shield to block the doors and windows of the carriage! ”

Wei Boyu ignored the paralyzing sensation coming from his left shoulder and ordered loudly.

Li Linfu climbed into the carriage like a panicked rabbit with agility that was not commensurate with his age.

Ansiya soldiers held mounted shields in front of the doors and windows.

At this time, the Xiangfu guards reacted, turned over their horses, drew their horizontal knives, and put on a posture of searching for the assassin.

"Idiot! Isn't it a target to get on the horse? ”

Before Wei Boyu's rebuke landed, he heard the sound of breaking through the air continuously, and immediately several knights of the Prime Minister's Mansion Guards fell off their horses.

Two crossbow bolts also shot into the shields of the Anciyan soldiers, making a dull sound.

"Poisonous!"

Several knights who had fallen off their horses suddenly convulsed and were in pain.

Wei Boyu also noticed that his left shoulder began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Escort Li Xiang into the hospital, hurry up and find a doctor!"

After Wei Boyu struggled to shout the last sentence, his eyes turned black and he fell to the ground...... At the same time as Li Linfu's assassination, outside Jincheng Fang, dozens of masked black-clothed people suddenly climbed over the wall and entered the workshop.

They familiarly found a carriage parked not far from Wang Fei's mansion, and took out a horizontal sword, a crossbow, and dozens of cowhide bags from the hidden compartment.

When the heavily armed man in black went around the side of Wang Fei's house and climbed over the wall, he was discovered by a team of dart masters patrolling the courtyard.

After the dart master rang the gong for the alarm, he drew his horizontal sword, formed a military formation, and fought with the man in black.

The swordsmanship of the men in black was not outstanding, but the dart master did not know that they had strong bows and crossbows, and the blades were also coated with poison, and as soon as they engaged, they were poisoned or shot to death.

After dealing with the team, the man in black continued to rush in.

Their goal is very clear, that is, Wang Fei's bedroom.

As soon as he rushed into the courtyard where Wang Fei lived, the man in black encountered a dense array of crossbow arrows.

Ten dart masters were armed with repeating crossbows, and dozens of crossbow arrows were fired in an instant.

Although the power of the crossbow bolt is not strong, it is enough to shoot the seven men in black who rushed to the front into hedgehogs.

"Throw!"

Suddenly, someone among the men in black shouted a loud order.

Dozens of black dots flew into the air.

"Shoot!"

The repeater sounded again, and the locust-like bolts shot at the black dots, making a poof, poof, puff piercing sound, and liquid fell on the dart masters.

"Fierce oil fire! Disperse! Disperse! ”

Most of the dart masters of the Suye Dart Bureau are retired veterans of Beiting, and they are too familiar with this taste.

"Fire!"

Someone in black blew a fire breaker, and the fire rose into the air, and immediately two dart masters were licked by the tongue of fire, rolling on the ground in pain.

"Sand! Jansha! ”

Wang Fei, who was armed with a horizontal knife, rushed out of the room and shouted loudly.

In the courtyard of Jinchengfang's house, there is not only a copper tank every dozens of steps to store water, but also a large box of sand and several shovels for lifting sand are placed next to each copper tank.

A spade of sand (this chapter is not finished, please turn the page) was sprinkled, gradually stopping the flames that spread wildly.

The black-clothed people who were laughing wildly through the fire curtain didn't expect the fierce oil fire to be extinguished so quickly, and they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Shoot!"

More and more crossbow-wielding dart masters arrived and threw angry crossbow bolts at the enemy, killing more than a dozen men in black on the spot.

"Surrender! Tell me who instigated it, and I'll consider sparing your life. ”

Wang Fei held a horizontal knife and shouted to the man in black.

Hearing the movement, Bakut, at the urging of Aitengana, also rode over with his guards and surrounded the man in black.

"Don't kill me! I give up! ”

Some of the men in black were cowardly and dropped their swords or crossbows.

"Surrender! I make you surrender! ”

Suddenly, five strong men in black swung their knives and slashed, killing or slashing all the remaining companions.

"Shoot those five!"

Wang Fei hurriedly ordered, and the five strong men fell to the ground in response.

At this time, there were only four or five of the dozens of men in black left.

"Tell me, who commanded you?"

Wang Fei shouted angrily.

"It was the five of them who recruited us ......"

Before the surviving men in black could finish their words, they foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground and died.

"Was it poisoned a long time ago, or was the knife of those five people poisonous? The people behind the scenes are really ruthless. ”

Wang Fei sighed, "I hope the corpse can tell me more information." ”

The dart masters carefully ripped off the face towel of the man in black, and one of them was a cross-eyed person who brought hundreds of sacks of bad money to the hot pot restaurant to make trouble...... That night, Wang Jie, who had just fallen asleep, was very angry when he was woken up by Yahuan.

But after hearing that Li Linfu was assassinated, he put on a piece of clothing indiscriminately, jumped into the carriage, and rushed to Pingkangfang as fast as he could.

After seeing with his own eyes that Li Linfu was only a little frightened, the anxious Wang Ji was about to breathe a sigh of relief, but he received a report from his subordinates that the residence of Wang Fei, a scholar from Hanlin, was also attacked.

The next day, two assassinations occurred overnight, shocking the Chang'an government and the public.

The furious Li Longji ordered Jin Wuwei and Jingzhao Mansion to arrest the murderer as soon as possible.

After all, since the founding of the People's Republic of China, there have been vicious public security incidents in Chang'an City.

The crown prince Li Heng was entrusted by the sage to bring the imperial doctor to the Li Mansion early in the morning to offer condolences.

Li Heng's sincere and caring attitude greatly moved Li Xiu, who was guarding the sidelines, and his perception of the East Palace was also much better.

Li Renzhi, who was furious, called on Wang Zhun to mobilize all his men, and he did not hesitate to dig three feet into the ground to find the assassin who assassinated his grandfather.

Wei Boyu, who was a meritorious guard, was rescued by the doctors of the Li Mansion because he was wearing double armor and the poisonous arrow did not penetrate too deep into the shoulder.

When Wei Boyu woke up, he found a bunch of maids carrying soup and medicine, gathered in front of the bed.

And his bedroom was also full of gold and silver coins and silk silk.

After questioning Li Linfu, Li Heng followed the sage's edict and went to Wang Fei's house to visit again.

Seeing that Wang Fei only lost a few dart masters and eliminated dozens of assassins, Li Heng paid more and more attention to Su Yeju's strength.

After tossing for several days, the assassin who assassinated Li Linfu was not found, and the mastermind behind the attack on Wang Fei was nowhere to be found.

However, Jin Wuwei and Jingzhao Mansion were not without gains.

It was discovered that although the poisoned arrows used by the two groups of assassins were not the same poison, they both came from Jiannan; And the officials of Jingzhao Mansion also heard from the three sects and nine streams in the West City, and Hongnong Pavilion secretly sold fierce oil fire.

All the clues invariably pointed to Yang Guozhong, and there were rumors in the market, saying that Yang Guozhong was disgusted with Li Xiang and Wang Fei for ruining his financial path, so he bought the murderer to take revenge.

When Li Linfu saw that Yang Guozhong was deeply involved in the murder case, he immediately instructed Wang Gong to play and implore the sage to allow him to search Yang's mansion and Hongnong Pavilion.

The frightened Yang Guozhong took the Yang family brothers and sisters into the palace to find the concubine, crying that he was framed, and begged Yang Yuhuan to intercede for him.

I don't know if it was the concubine who persuaded the saint, or the saint had doubts.

Although Li Longji continued to strictly investigate the case, he always kept Wang Jie's recital on his desk and did not comment on it...... The uproar caused by the assassination has not yet subsided, and An Lushan, far away in Youzhou, has another twist and turn that shocked the court.

“…… The minister asked to send 200,000 soldiers to the three towns and subordinate countries, and then conquer the Khitan...... With the strong soldiers of the Luo tribe, please ask Your Majesty to transfer the letter to Li Xianzhong, the king of letters, to serve as the deputy envoy of Youzhou Jiedu, and move to Youzhou with his troops to help the ministers conquer the Khitan...... The North Court is fierce and the oil fire is just fierce, please give an order to your Majesty, so that the North Court will protect the king and send the fierce oil fire to help Weichen......"

In the internal and external turmoil, Wang Fei and Wang Yong, Su Sanniang, Ayi Tenggena, Lu Qi and others carefully deliberated before and after the assassination case, and at the same time, they set their eyes on the distant Shuo Fang...... (End of chapter)......
