Chapter 59: Rescue
The tip of the knife filled with murderous intent slipped from the tip of Zhang Zhijie's nose, and bright red blood splashed on Zhang Zhijie's flying fish suit. The corpse of the master assassin fell in front of Zhang Zhijie, a mocking smile on his face. Mock yourself for falling short, or mock the foolishness of God?
Song Cun Gao Yong Zhao Yang knelt on one knee and said in a low voice: "The subordinates are incompetent, let the traitors disturb the adults!" ”
Zhang Zhijie looked at the already one-sided battlefield, flicked the bloody flying fish suit, and said lightly: "It's okay, let them keep a few alive!" ”
Song Cun obeyed the order, and Gao Yong and Zhao Yang took the knife and stood back beside Zhang Zhijie.
Song Cun walked back to the battlefield and shouted a few times, and the Jinyi guard stopped and surrounded the three assassins who were wounded at the end!
Zhang Zhijie stepped forward and said sternly: "You are plotting rebellion, you are going to punish the nine clans, as long as you surrender and point out the mastermind behind the scenes, this official promises to pardon you!" ”
The three assassins who were surrounded inside glanced at each other, did not speak, and just looked at Zhang Zhijie quietly.
Zhang Zhijie felt that there were signs of success in persuasion, and stepped forward and smiled: "You have to believe in this official ......"
Before Zhang Zhijie finished speaking, the three of them suddenly showed pain on their faces, black blood kept flowing from the corners of their mouths, and then they fell to the ground!
Zhang Zhijie was very speechless, damn, it was hard to pretend to be forced, this is too faceless!
Song Cun explained very doggy: "My lord, they are all dead soldiers in captivity, and they committed suicide by taking poison!" It must have been poisoned in the teeth beforehand! ”
Zhang Zhijie glanced at Song Cun, flicked his sleeves and said, "Will I not know?" ”
Zhang Zhijie came to the carriage and said loudly: "Your Highness, I am Zhang Zhijie, I am here to rescue the driver, is Your Highness okay?" ”
Zhu Houzhao's face was pale, and he kept listening to the shouts and killings outside, and his legs were shaking in fright, as for Liu Jin, he was already so frightened that he hid aside and trembled! Zhang Yong was better, and kept saying words to comfort Zhu Houzhao!
At this time, listening to the sound of shouting and killing outside, and hearing Zhang Zhijie's voice outside, Zhu Houzhao said calmly: "Zhang Yong opened the carriage!" ”
Liu Jin listened and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness is inappropriate, no one can believe it at this time!" In case ......"
Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "If Zhijie can't believe it, then who else can believe it!" Zhang Yong, open the carriage! ”
When Zhang Yong heard this, he struggled to open the seriously deformed carriage from the inside! Zhang Yong poked his head out first and saw Zhang Zhijie standing outside with a large number of brocade guards, and the ground was densely packed with corpses!
Zhang Zhijie saw the carriage squeak open and asked, "Grandpa Zhang, how is Your Highness?" ”
Zhang Yong heard this and hurriedly said: "Thanks to the timely arrival of the little marquis, His Royal Highness is safe!" ”
Zhu Houzhao squeezed out his head, looked at Zhang Zhijie and said in surprise: "Zhijie, you're here, I'm fine!" ”
Zhang Zhijie looked at Zhu Houzhao carefully and saw that he was indeed not injured at all, so he said with confidence: "Your Highness is fine, it's really scared to death!" ”
Only then did Zhu Houzhao notice the stinging blood on Zhang Zhijie's flying fish suit, and exclaimed, "Are you injured?" ”
Zhang Zhijie flicked the flying fish suit and said with a faint smile: "It's the blood of the leader of the traitors!" ”
Zhu Houzhao heard Zhang Zhijie talk about the traitors, so he looked around hatefully and said: "These traitors, who are so bold that they dare to assassinate me, will definitely behead them all over the house!" ”
Zhu Houzhao wanted to get off the carriage, but he felt that his body was a little soft, so Zhang Zhijie went up and helped him get off the carriage!
Zhu Houzhao saw the dead corpses all over the ground, his frightened little face was snow-white, and Zhang Zhijie smiled: "The minister will escort His Highness back to the palace!" ”
At this time, there was a sound of horses' hooves at the end of the long street, and Zhu Houzhao became a frightened bird, and glanced at Zhang Zhijie in fright!
Zhang Zhijie nodded calmly at Zhu Houzhao, waved his hand and said, "Protect Your Highness!" When Song Cun heard this, he led the Jinyi guards into a protective formation and protected Zhu Houzhao and Zhang Zhijie inside!
Song Cun led a few brocade guards to take a few steps forward and shouted, "Who is here?" Stop and dismount! ”
Zhang Dingyuan came all the way nervously and uneasily, and when he saw the corpses all over the ground in front of him, there must have been a vicious battle, and when he saw that there were dense brocade guards, he was about to faint in surprise!
It seems that Jinyiwei arrived in time, could it be that Jinyiwei got the news in advance to protect His Highness? It seems that His Royal Highness is likely to be safe, and the head on his head, full of old and young, has been saved! Zhang Dingyuan has never treated Jinyiwei like he did today!
Zhang Dingyuan hurriedly dismounted and said loudly: "I am Zhang Dingyuan, the commander of the guards of the East Palace!" How is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? ”
Song Cun looked back at the back, Zhang Zhijie saw this, and said loudly: "Let Commander Zhang come over!" I have to be careful in extraordinary times, Zhang Zhijie whispered to Gao Yong and Zhao Yang: "Be careful!" ”
Gao Yong and Zhao Yang's faces were awe-inspiring, and they held down the handle of the knife with their right hands, and immediately pulled out the knife as soon as there was something wrong!
Zhang Dingyuan saw that the other party was so careful, and he didn't want to cause misunderstanding, so he whispered a few words to his subordinates, and then walked over alone!
The brocade guards in a circle let Zhang Dingyuan squeeze in, Zhang Dingyuan saw Zhu Houzhao, who was protected in the middle, unscathed, and quickly knelt down and said: "Minister Zhang Dingyuan is late to escort him, please forgive your Highness!" ”
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said, "Get up!" Thanks to Zhijie for coming in time with Jinyiwei! Zhang Dingyuan stood up and saluted Zhang Zhijie and said, "Thank you, little marquis!" ”
Zhang Zhijie smiled and said: "Commander Zhang is polite, this is also my duty!" ”
As soon as Zhang Zhijie's words fell, there was a large sound of horses' hooves behind him, and Zhu Houzhao's face turned pale again.
Zhang Zhijie frowned and said, "Where did this come from?" Zhang Dingyuan said: "It should be my own person, but in extraordinary times, I will take someone over to take a look!" ”
Zhang Zhi nodded and said, "Then it's troublesome for Commander Zhang!" Zhang Dingyuan came out, beckoned the East Palace guards he brought, bypassed the Jinyi guard, and came to the back!
Zhang Dingyuan shouted: "Who is coming?" Dismount quickly! ”
Liu Chengde led the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division to stop, looked at it, and saw a corpse on the ground, although he recognized that the scene was all Jinyi Guards and East Palace guards, he still said vigilantly: "It turned out to be Commander Zhang, what happened?" I saw the fireworks for help! ”
Zhang Dingyuan also knew Liu Chengde, and when he saw that it was Liu Chengde who came with the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses, he relaxed a little and said: "It turned out to be Lord Liu, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was attacked here, and the traitors have been wiped out!" ”
Liu Chengde is not at ease, he doesn't know anything after all! just saw the fireworks coming for help, and at this time, he was also suspicious in his heart, and said loudly: "Is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince okay?" I want to meet Your Highness! ”
Zhang Dingyuan thought for a while and said, "Yes, you come with me!" Hearing this, Liu Chengde whispered to his subordinates: "I'm in, if something is wrong, don't worry about me, do it immediately, and send someone back to report the news!" ”
Zhang Zhijie heard the voice from the periphery, and knew that the person who came was someone from the Five Cities Terracotta Division, a little relieved, and at the same time a little puzzled, why hadn't Mu Bin come with someone from Jinyiwei?
