In the vertical arch hall, Emperor Zhao Zhen's expression was still grim, and his face was pale, which made people a little scared. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

After returning to the palace, Empress Cao first appeased the concubines and then came to greet her, but was rejected by Emperor Zhao Zhen.

The prime ministers have asked for the will several times and asked for the face of the saint, but Emperor Zhao Zhen also ignored it and just stayed alone.

Assassination frightened?

But at this moment, in the vertical arch hall, although Zhao Zhen's face was not good, it seemed to be more solemn and angry, and there was no panicked look.

Since sitting on the dragon chair in his teens, Zhao Zhen has long developed the habit of not being surprised everywhere, and although Zhao Zhen gives people the impression of being quiet and calm on weekdays, he is definitely not weak.

Today's accident is really sudden, and it is shocking enough.

At the feet of the dignified Son of Heaven, in the place where the emperor was in person, there were people who killed people and set fires, which is a major event that must not be tolerated.

Especially these actions themselves may be aimed at the emperor, yes, it can only be said that it is possible, Zhao Zhen is very rational and rigorous in this matter.

The guards had clearly told him that the two feathered arrows that flew over were a bit hasty, and that if they were well prepared and well hidden, the Assassin might be able to hit them in one fell swoop.

So, it's hard to say.

It is unclear whether the Assassin missed, or if it was influenced by some factor, or whether it was not the target from the beginning.

Zhao Zhen's anger is real, angry that someone dares to challenge his authority like this, and even more angry that there is no clue in the investigation so far.

Where Gao Jixuan has made no progress, Kaifeng Mansion is still a headless fly, these Zhao Zhen are not surprised.

But the Imperial City Division is also confused, which makes people angry, as the Great Song Dynasty Imperial City Guard and Secret Spy Agency, it can be called the Sixth Military / Intelligence Department of the Great Song Dynasty.

It's been so long since the accident and I don't have a clue, and I really shouldn't have it.

"Wang Shouzhong, look at these people you trained, it's too disappointing for me."

"Your Majesty forgives you." The dearest chamberlain stood with his head bowed, his face full of shame.

"What is the use of forgiveness? Give me an explanation as soon as possible. Zhao Zhen said angrily: "Also, what is the situation on the imperial sister's side?" ”

"The old slave has already arranged for someone to go to the spiritual temple, and there will be news from the eldest princess soon." Although he got some unfavorable news first, Wang Shouzhong is a very smart person and resolutely does not report his worries until he confirms it.

"Hmm!" Zhao Zhen replied lightly, obviously a little worried.

At this moment, Xiao Huangmen walked to the door and whispered a few words in Wang Shouzhong's ear.

"Your Majesty, Li Di has arrived, and he said that he will report to His Majesty about the incident in Jin Mingchi."

"Xuan!" Zhao Zhen didn't think much about it, and immediately agreed.

First, Li Di was a close confidant when he was in the palace, and secondly, Li Di was a person who had been the prime minister, he was old and old, even if he crossed the prime ministers, it was reasonable.

"See Your Majesty!"

"Why is Mr. Li in a hurry to see me?" Even after many years, Zhao Zhen still calls Li Di as a student in private.

"Your Majesty, the minister has received some news about the assassins of Jin Mingchi, and the matter is very important, so I immediately came to meet the saint, and I ask Your Majesty to forgive me for the abruptness."

"Mr. Li is serious, just say what you have to say." Zhao Zhen was quite polite.

Over there, Wang Shouzhong's face couldn't stand a little embarrassment, the huge network of the Imperial City Division didn't find out anything important, how did Li Di, a dying old minister, know?

If I'm not mistaken, he had been accompanying him in the Linshui Temple at that time, where could he know any news?

Regardless of whether Wang Shouzhong has any dissatisfaction with Li Di, first, his identity is there, it is ineffective, unnecessary, and he doesn't dare!

What's more, he is now eager to get more information and track down the assassin as soon as possible, if the Imperial City Division is still clueless, then it will be truly terrifying.

"Back to Your Majesty, Shen Yan, the granddaughter of the minister, was walking in the woods by the lake at that time, and happened to witness the collusion between the gangsters and the soldiers of the forbidden army."

"Forbidden soldiers?"

"Yes, that person is dressed as a forbidden army, sneaking around with gangsters, and after being discovered, he wants to kill the granddaughter of the minister." Li Di said: "Fortunately, I was lucky and escaped." ”

Wang Shouzhong's face turned pale, it was obvious that this situation was very bad and very serious, and there were assassins among the soldiers who guarded the safety of the imperial city and the emperor.

This situation is terrifying to think about, and it seems that it is necessary to conduct an investigation among the forbidden army in the future.

Li Di said cautiously: "After being broken, these gangsters seem to have taken action in person, according to the minister's granddaughter, she fled back to Jinming Pond just to see the fire, maybe there is something between the two." ”

"Really?" Zhao Zhen nodded and asked, "This matter is true, it won't be a little girl who is dazzled, right?" ”

"No!" Li Di swore and said: "At that time, in addition to the minister's granddaughter, there was another person present to witness it with his own eyes. ”

"Who?"

"Xue Zong!"

"Xue Zong, who is at the top of the Four Gate Pavilions?" Zhao Zhen was surprised: "This Xue Zong is related to your family?"

"There was a one-sided relationship." Li Di said: "When I returned to Tokyo a few days ago, the minister's granddaughter fell into the water in the Wuzhang River, and it was Xue Zong who bravely rescued her. ”

I didn't expect to meet on the bank of Jinming Pond today, and the minister's granddaughter also chatted with Xue Zong, who knew that such a flying disaster would come? But fortunately, Xue Zong was brave, and the granddaughter of the covering minister returned to safety first.

"I see!" Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, seemingly interested in the chance encounter between Xue Zong and Shen Yan.

"In other words, Xue Zong also witnessed everything?" Obviously, after hearing Xue Zong's name, Zhao Zhen suddenly became interested.

"Yes."

Li Di nodded, and then muttered: "But after he covered the minister's granddaughter, he may not be able to get out, judging from the situation at the scene, Xue Zong may have been injured, and now he is gone."

Now whether it is life or death, and where it has gone, I don't know at all, but the stakes are very high, and the minister has come to report to His Majesty. ”

Having said that, Li Di secretly sighed in his heart, why wasn't this move to find out Xue Zong's whereabouts?

The granddaughter scrambled to find herself, and after describing the thrilling experience, her face was not full of horror, but full of worry.

His grandfather saw it in his eyes, and he had to be a little worried, his strength was limited after all, so he deliberately entered the palace to find the emperor.

If you want to find someone in the Great Song Dynasty, no one can do it more easily than the emperor, especially in the city of Tokyo.

After Zhao Zhen heard this, his brows furrowed.

Li Di's words seemed to answer some questions, maybe it was because of the collision between Xue Zong and Shen Yan that those assassins would act in advance, which seemed to be hasty and shoddy!

It could be heard that Xue Zong should have fought more with those assassins, and if he was there, he would definitely be able to find out a lot of news.

But now he is nowhere to be found, where has he gone?

At this moment, Wang Shouzhong stepped forward and whispered a few words in his ear, and Zhao Zhen immediately said, "It's really a coincidence...... Mr. Li is relieved that Xue Zong is fine for the time being. ”
