Chapter 69: The Assassin
Xiao Yan slept unsteadily in the past two days, he was fair and strict, upright, but it does not mean stupid, on the one hand, he is a genuine prince, on the other hand, he is about to become a relative of the emperor, and Yang Lian, who has made a lot of contributions, the two had a fight and conflict, strictly speaking, it is a family to fight a family, this is a royal family affair, although Dali Temple is powerful, but it can't control the royal affairs. Xiao Yan is a little unstable, this matter is not easy to deal with, it is a matter that offends people.
The excerpt has already been handed over, Xiao Yan hopes that the Son of Heaven can make a decision so that he can get out, otherwise King Yan, Prime Minister Sun's party, or King Qi, Song Ge Lao and others will also impeach him.
At this time, a person came to the prison of Dali Temple, dressed in black, wearing a hat on his head, and his voice was a woman. She was begging the jailer of Dali Temple: "This eldest brother, my lord is locked up here, I will send him some food, and I hope that my eldest brother will allow it." As she spoke, the woman in black quietly took out two ingots of silver from her arms, handed them to the jailer, and said in a low voice: "Big brother, it's okay, buy tea for big brother with this little thing." ”
White flowers and silver are rare things, such a big ingot of silver, at least five taels, this woman is so big! The jailer suddenly smiled and narrowed his eyes, and said, "This girl, who is your master?" "It's really rich that can make the devil grind.
The woman in black smiled slightly and said, "It's Yang Jiedu, who was just locked up two days ago!" So saying, he shoved the silver into the jailer's hand.
"Oh, you're talking about Yang Jiedu, come in, please come in!" The jailer had already been greeted, and when he heard that it was Yang Lian's family, he was naturally very enthusiastic, and there was also white silver.
The jailer said behind him: "Hurry up, I won't be the master to come to check the room." As he spoke, he walked over with the woman in black.
In the prison of Dali Temple, most of them are traitors, and many people have been locked up for a long time, just waiting for the autumn queen to be beheaded. Hearing the sound of footsteps, many people gathered around and shouted in a chaotic voice: "Wronged, wronged!" ”
The woman in black glanced left and right, frowning slightly, and the jailer urged her, "Don't be afraid, go this way." ”
Yang Lian's prison cell is in the innermost, different from other people's houses, it is clean, spacious and bright, and most of the people who were imprisoned here in the past were high-ranking officials and nobles.
The sound of footsteps sounded, but it still didn't affect him, until the woman in black arrived at the door and said, "Master." ”
Yang Lian raised his head, this voice was somewhat familiar, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”
The woman in black bowed slightly and said, "Master, my sisters are worried about your safety, let the slave family come to see you." As he spoke, he said to the jailer: "Big brother, it's okay, I have a few words to say to the master when I open the door." ”
"Try to be as fast as you can!" The jailer said, taking out the key and opening the door.
The woman in black walked in, put down the basket, and said, "The sisters are worried that the master will not eat well, so they made some meals and asked the slave family to bring them to the master." ”
Yang Lian nodded, narrowed his eyes, and looked at the woman in black carefully, the hat on the woman's head was not big, but it was enough to cover her face, looking at the dress, it seemed to be the person next to Zeng Yiling, and this voice, Yang Lian had heard it, but she didn't know that it was the girl from Xiaoxiang Pavilion?
The woman in black uncovered the bamboo basket and slowly took out the food box from the basket.
Yang Lian asked, "They're all okay." ”
"It's all okay, my sisters are actively contacting and preparing to rescue the master. It's just, it's just ......" The woman in black looked like she wanted to say something.
"Just what?" Yang Lian was surprised, so he asked.
"It's just that I heard that Your Majesty is very concerned about this matter, and it seems that he wants to punish the master." The woman in black said as she continued to take out the food box.
Yang Lian nodded, the Son of Heaven wants to punish him, that's for sure, but I don't know how the Son of Heaven will punish him, but Yang Lian has the help of King Qi, so he won't be killed. Yang Lian also felt that this matter was under his control, and now that two days have passed, there has been no reaction from the Son of Heaven, and Xiao Yan has not made any disposition, which is enough to prove that His Majesty still has concerns about this matter.
Yang Lian was thinking about it, and couldn't help but lose her mind, the woman in black glanced at Yang Lian, and suddenly a fine light flashed in her eyes, she secretly took out a dagger from the bottom of the bamboo basket, and stabbed it while Yang Lian was not paying attention.
Yang Lian was caught off guard, and when the wind in his ears suddenly started, he didn't have time to look up, his body was slightly on one side, and the dagger stabbed into Yang Lian's left rib.
"Suffer death!" The woman screamed, a cruel look on her face.
Yang Lian took a knife, desperately in pain, and slapped the woman's shoulder, the woman's body was on the same side, and she took a few steps back, but the dagger was still in her hand.
"Die!" The woman in black shouted again and pounced.
At this time, the jailer reacted, and hurriedly pulled out his waist knife and pounced, Yang Lian is an important person, and he must not have an accident in Dali Temple, otherwise Dali Temple and below will be implicated, and the jailer on duty is afraid that he will be killed.
However, the jailer was no match for the woman in black, and when the woman in black saw the menacing appearance of the fish roe, she turned her body like a fluttering butterfly, and slashed at the jailer's side with great dexterity, and the dagger in her hand had pierced the jailer's throat with a slight stroke.
Blood spurted out like a spring, and the jailer tried to say something, but the blood gushing out made him speechless, his eyes widened, and he died. Yang Lian was not idle at this time, this was the battle of life and death, his little injury was nothing, and he immediately had an iron fist like the wind, wanting the woman in black to sweep away.
Just after the woman in black stabbed the jailer, Yang Lian's fist also hit the shoulder of the woman in black, only to hear a crisp sound, and the woman's shoulder was cracked. The woman in black let out a cry, and then she realized that Yang Lian was so difficult, and after being hit by this punch, the woman in black felt that she had no strength to fight, so she turned around and left.
The sound of fighting in the cell alarmed others, many people hurried over, and some even witnessed the scene of the woman in black killing her colleagues, and immediately shouted: "Someone, there are assassins!" ”
"What, there are assassins?" The jailers arrived inquiringly and surrounded the woman in black.
The woman in black saw that the situation was not good, and wanted to break out of the encirclement, but the prison of Dali Temple was not said to be impregnable, at least when it was built, taking into account the situation of someone robbing the prison, the woman in black wanted to break out, there was only one way, and on this road, there were already more than a dozen jailers surrounding her.
Yang Lian covered his wounds, his head turned quickly, who is this woman in black? Why is her voice so familiar? In retrospect, I only felt some pain in my armpit, and when I tore open my clothes, I saw that the wound was black, and the dagger was poisonous! Yang Lian walked out quickly, he didn't want to die, so he naturally needed to call for help.
At this time, the fight between the woman in black and the jailer reached a white-hot stage, the woman was good, it seemed that she should be a killer, but she was a person after all, and her two fists were invincible to four hands.
In the chaos, two jailers were stabbed, and immediately blood was dripping, but more jailers surrounded them, and a woman made trouble in Dali Temple, as if the prison was her home, and let her come and go. Where does this put everyone's face?
Looking at more and more jailers, the woman in black suddenly took out something from her arms, and with a wave of her hand, the white powder suddenly flew in the air, and many people were caught off guard. ”
"Attention, it's lime!" Someone smelled the pungent smell and immediately shouted.
Taking advantage of the jailer's panic, the woman in black pulled her legs and left, and the lime also had an effect on her, she ran two steps and crashed into a person, who screamed and fell to the ground. The woman in black continued to run out, and was about to reach the door, when suddenly two knives slashed over, and the woman in black was caught off guard, one in the shoulder and one in the waist, and immediately fell to the ground with a scream, and then several knives were put on her neck.
Lord Bo Han Chongde stood not far away, with a gloomy face, someone committed a crime in Dali Temple, it was really bold to the extreme. I came to him a few days ago and asked him to take care of Yang Lian, because he felt that this time Yang Lian had a conflict with King Yan, and with King Yan's character, I was afraid that Yang Lian would be suppressed.
At that time, Han Chongde still felt that Lin Renzhao was a little worried, after all, this was in Jinling, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even if King Yan was a prince, he didn't dare to do anything too out of the ordinary. Although I don't believe it in my heart, Han Chongde and Lin Renzhao have known each other for many years, and this face still has to be sold. It's just that he didn't expect that two days later, someone would really assassinate Yang Lian. He saw the scene just now in his eyes, which made him believe in Lin Renzhao's words.
Han Chongde stepped forward, stared at the woman in black, and shouted, "Who sent you?" ”
"Hey!" A string of blood bubbles appeared at the corner of the woman's mouth, and after laughing twice, she suddenly raised her hand, grabbed the waist knife in the hand of a jailer, and slashed it on her neck, and immediately the blood gushed like a spring, staining the ground red.
"Master Han, the assassin is dead." A jailer said.
Han Chongde frowned, forcibly endured his disgust, stepped forward, lifted the veil on the face of the woman in black, looked at it carefully, and said, "Please Yang Jiedu to take a look and see if you know this person." ”
A jailer hurried over at this time, covered with lime, and said, "Master Han, Yang Jiedu was stabbed by an assassin. ”
"Damn it!" Master Han's face changed, and he hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?" ”
"It was stabbed in the armpit, and it didn't hurt the lungs, but the dagger was poisonous, and many jailers have been injured!" The jailer replied.
Han Chongde's face really changed at this time, he hurriedly took three steps and did two steps, walked into the cell, just walked a few steps, and then turned back and ordered a jailer, "Quick, go and ask for a doctor!" In addition, tell Xiao Siqing about this again! ”
Yang Lian leaned on the desk at this time, his face was a little pale, as the jailer said, the knife did not hit the vital point, but the dagger was quenched with poison, so it was still very deadly. If he hadn't been healed in time, he probably wouldn't have been able to save his life.
"Yang Jiedu, how do you feel?" After Han Chongde finished asking, he found that Yang Lian's face was no longer right, and this question was obviously superfluous. Hurriedly instructed the jailer on the side, and said, "Quick, help Yang Jiedu to the backyard!" (To be continued.) )
