Chapter 49 VI Assassins and New Assassins
Two months after a brief reunion with his wife, Li Tianhao rushed back to the front line.
Originally, the apologists formed by the nobles were supposed to accompany him, but these rabble were completely unorganized and disciplined, and the symbolic training was as ugly as a joke, and neither the trainer nor the instructor had actual combat experience. Li Tianhao didn't have time to wait for this group of clowns to finish preparing, arranging the route of this group of people and reliable manpower, and setting up military camps and supply stations along the way to ensure that this group of people could rush to the front line smoothly, Li Tianhao immediately said goodbye to the king and his wife and headed for the front line.
As soon as he returned to Epsommiton, Li Tianhao received bad news: more than 40 murders occurred during the time he was away, and the victims were mostly middle and lower-ranking officers in the army.
"What's going on? Who is the murderer? ”
In the face of Li Tianhao's questioning, Yamo lowered his head and replied: "According to the investigation of his subordinates, the homicides are mainly concentrated in the Epsmilton area, and some of them appear in the Napatis area, which is obviously aimed at the officers of our army's garrison, so it is impossible to commit the crime independently, it should be the assassination organization sent by Yaji." These people are secretive and well-organized, and their subordinates have ensnared three of them, but these three men immediately committed suicide, leaving no clues on them. The only thing that can be traced is that none of these people are civilians, and there is no sign of regular labor. According to the statistics of the location of the crime, the subordinates believe that the clergy are the most likely to commit the crime. However, there is still a lack of strong evidence to support this speculation. ”
Li Tianhao nodded after hearing this and said, "Two things, one, find out the murderer as soon as possible." Be sure to catch them all, two. Find evidence as soon as possible, if it is really the clergy. Evidence is important, understand? ”
"Understood! Subordinates go and do it immediately! Jamo saluted and immediately turned away. After finishing the accumulated affairs at hand one by one, it was already nightfall, Li Tianhao yawned and stood up to go back to the room for dinner, but Lysius followed and said, "My lord, there is another small matter that needs to be revealed." ”
"Oh? Something, if not important."
"Your second clerk, Habs, has applied for retirement due to age and physical condition, and Lord Weizon has granted his request." Ignoring Li Tianhao's desire to leave, Lysius continued to finish his words.
"Habs? He's a capable old man. Who took his place? Bidnus or Cook? Li Tianhao asked absentmindedly. Although the Second Registrar was an indispensable position due to his heavy workload, he did not care who would replace him. Now that Wei Song has come forward, he will naturally choose a suitable candidate.
"The replacement is waiting in your mansion, and the subordinate is retiring." Lysius saluted and retreated.
"What are you doing, still playing this set. Alam, let's go. Li Tianhao muttered. At the moment, all he wanted most was a hearty dinner to fill his empty stomach, and he didn't care about it anymore.
As soon as he stepped into the mansion, a graceful figure walked in front of him: "Lord Lord." Subordinate Tia. is your newly appointed Second Registrar. ”
Li Tianhao's whole person suddenly froze in place. This woman, Tia, was the daughter of the late Noyuda, the lord of the city of Argihoru. Because Noyuda died at the hands of Li Tianhao's arrows, Tia once vowed to pay for her blood debt, and she became Li Tianhao's prisoner after a failed assassination attempt. However, Li Tianhao did not punish her. On the contrary, he showed some longing between men and women to her, which was obvious to everyone in the Dils army. It's a pity that Li Tianhao married Princess Alfrette of Palchi soon after, and this relationship that had not yet begun died. Tia was then placed to work as a clerk under Lysius. Because her ability in writing is far more reassuring than her martial arts, she has been promoted since then. Especially in last year's war, she cooperated with Lysius for her excellent completion of the task of rear dispatch and was commended. But now that Wei Song has arranged her to be Li Tianhao's second secretary, Li Tianhao feels that Wei Song is completely ill-intentioned. Then the entire Dils army will be able to watch the white play.
In fact, another reason why Li Tianhao thinks this way is that Tia has completely changed compared with two years ago. Two years ago, Tia looked a little thin due to her hard work in martial arts, and her skin was slightly rough. Today, Tia is a nineteen-year-old slim lady, with short blonde hair turned into long hair, a pair of chestnut eyes flashing with crystalline light, a beautiful face and fair skin matched with a light blue female robe, which sets off her mature female curves just right. When she walked towards her, Li Tianhao really felt a little dizzy in front of her.
Alam, who was standing behind him, noticed that Li Tianhao had not responded, and pulled Li Tianhao's shirt with his hand, and Li Tianhao woke up like a dream.
"It's you. Really, it's been a long time. Let's cheer for it from now on. ”
"It seems that your language skills are still the same, and if you don't have anything to order, your subordinates will retire for the time being." Tia was still as harsh as she had been two years ago.
"Ah, this, there's nothing to do for the time being, please take a good rest."
Tia bowed and withdrew.
Alam was dissatisfied: "Boss, look what you said." I can at least ask her to stay for dinner just now. ”
Li Tianhao punched him and scolded: "You group of people are all with bad stomachs, what kind of food do you have nothing to eat?" Sling the bull! ”
Alam shrugged and said, "What do you care about me, it was arranged by Lord Wei Song." But that's fine, if we eat together, I'm afraid I'll have indigestion if you stammer, boss. ”
Li Tianhao ignored Alam's words and went straight to dinner. He ate an unusually large amount of food at this meal, which surprised Alam a lot. In fact, Li suddenly discovered one thing, he was different from two years ago, when he suddenly saw Tia after marriage, his eyes could not be taken off her chest and between her legs, if Tia also noticed his gaze, it would be a shame to go home. In order to hide the change in his heart, he unknowingly ate twice as much food as usual.
Since this day, Li Tianhao has always avoided the opportunity to face to face with Tia as much as possible, which was quickly noticed by Alam, so the generals of the Dils army soon had a conversation between them.
Li Tianhao was completely unaware of this, and while he was busy with his daily affairs, Yamo came to report that three more officers had been assassinated, but Yamo had already grasped the murderer's movements. (To be continued......)
