Chapter 21: Assassination in the Wilderness
Finally, Liu Ao is very happy, all the workshops, one day off, wages are still paid, is the owner happy! The school also has a day off, even Da Hei and Da Bai also have a holiday, no, not a day, Liu Ao only brought them a cowhide collar and played with them.
Big Black, now that blonde hair is beginning to appear on his body, it's the season of moulting. The four legs of this thing began to become thicker than the big white ones.
Da Bai's ears were finally supported, they were no longer soft, they were much more powerful, their teeth were much sharper, Liu Ao was playing with the two of them, and his clothes had been torn several sets. Now it's all a foreshadowing in their nest.
Liu Ao was generous, gave the two new gentlemen, each of whom advanced five hanging money, let them go out and take a look at Luoyang City, this is enough for them to go to the Qinglou, Liu Ao instructed them, if you go to the Qinglou, don't go to the Nuanchun Pavilion, the consumption is too expensive, I don't know if Zuo Shi will find trouble with himself.
Even Zimu let Liu Ao take a vacation, he is in the study and the school, what danger is there, even if he is a personal guard, he can't live without his own life! This is the concept that Liu Ao slowly instilled with Zimu. So, what to do, what to do. If you need money, ask the housekeeper to get it.
"You see, Yang Wuniang is alone, just two girls to accompany her, and she doesn't go out, it's been a long time, it's not good, it's better for you to take them to Luoyang City, well, buy something she likes or something, it's better than being bored in the school!" This is what Liu Ao said to Zimu. Honest people, they can't even pick up girls, and they are stupid to practice martial arts.
I don't know if Cheng succeeded, anyway, the carriage at home is gone. The two gentlemen also happily took the money in advance, and walked away with strange expressions, still the carriage, or the coachman.
Liu Ao lazily looked here in his back garden, and looked there, well, why are there a few corn seedlings missing? I really can't see it if I don't pay attention. It looks like a freshly planed trace.
called Liu Hong, who was giving Tian Songtu, and looked at his confused appearance, forget it, he must not know. "Be careful, don't break the seedlings. You don't have to do it every day, the four of you take turns watching it. ”
In the vat at the root of the wall at the back, the bark of the soaked tree is almost rotten, well, you have to change the water, otherwise it will stink. Soon it will be the season of mosquito infestation, this is really worth paying attention to, otherwise, this is a hotbed for mosquitoes!
The seedlings of sweet potatoes grow fast, they are more than a foot long, and when the weather is hot, it is normal to grow a few inches overnight. I miss the taste of roasted sweet potatoes!
Chu Chu also finally knew that he had become Princess Xiangping of the Tang Dynasty, although he didn't like it, but he still accepted it, and Liu Ao took a lot of words. It's good now, Chu Chu is a princess, and she is still white. If you don't want Liu Ao to be killed, the guard was slapped by Zhang Lao, because he wanted Liu Ao to give Princess Xiangping a gift, what is it?
The guards were driven away directly by the elders, where did they come from and where they went back, the guards of the princess's mansion should not talk too much. Just leave two guards, you can't have too many guards!
Ouyang Hai and them were arranged to live temporarily in the courtyard that Yang Wuniang bought, and arranged for the housekeeper Zhou Yan to give them a farewell, they were very happy, they knew that with the identity of the government, they could live in hotels and restaurants in the future openly, and they didn't have to spend money on the second and man.
After all, they are often busy outside, often not going back and forth for months. Only those who are often away know how important it is for people to say goodbye.
It's a rare day to spare! The person who was shining in the warm sun was sleepy, pulled the recliner over, and lay on it, comfortable, Da Hei also climbed up, crawling on Liu Ao's body, Da Bai may be a little hot, opening his mouth and lowering his body, drilling in the shadows. Holding Da Hei, the fur on Da Hei's body was like a gentle quilt, Liu Ao gradually fell asleep......
Ouchi Wuying was driving the carriage in the direction of Baiyun Mountain, and as the population became scarce, a man followed the roadside from time to time, and quickly followed the carriage.
Shadowless seems to be oblivious to this. In the carriage, it was Li Shimin and Li Shiji.
"It's the first time I've taken a salary, five hanging money, hehe, send a princess who still refuses to call her father to that kid, how do you look at this deal, it's me who suffers, I hope this weapon is as magical as Lao Niu said."
"Lao Niu does things, although he is stubborn, but he never talks full, he says that he is so powerful, it is estimated that he is still conservative, as he said, it is really a weapon against the sky, in the world, there is no city that I can't attack in the Tang Dynasty, even if I give him an idle king, it is not too much."
"Idle prince? No, Shengmien, Doumiqiu, this ancient saying is still needed, this kid is so young, and he is so demonic, besides, do you think he wants to be an official? Young, arrogant, and the stinky problems of the world's high-ranking disciples are undoubtedly revealed, and the sense of belonging to me, the dynasty of the Tang Dynasty, is not very strong.
It can be seen from his teaching attitude that he is like a passerby. Fortunately, his woman was implicated this time, and he was forced to get this thing out, cunning boy!
People raise dogs, he raises a wolf cub, or a rare white wolf, but there is also an abnormal cat, is it possible that strange people even have strange things around them? You say, where did he get all those seeds of novelty? ”
"I heard that when he disappeared, his master gave it to him in order to help him fulfill his promise as soon as possible, I don't know the specifics, I asked Xiaonan about the girl, she said it." Li Shiji said uncertainly.
While speaking, I only heard a sound of shouting without a shadow outside, and the body rose into the air, the carriage did not move forward, but retreated, and the horse pulling the carriage screamed, only to see a few sharp arrows inserted in the horse, if the carriage did not go backwards, this made several arrows all have to be put into the carriage. The people inside will turn into hedgehogs.
Behind were a few men, who immediately stood on both sides of the carriage, their knives choking out of their sheaths.
The shadowless man had not yet fallen in the air, his hand was already shaking into the distance, and a few screams were heard in the distance. After landing, there was a long howl and spread in the direction of Baiyun Mountain......
Niu Jinda should be able to hear the whistling, which is a signal of attack.
After the body hit the ground, "Follow me to the east for three people, go to the west side, two people, bring the wounded people, and keep them alive." The rest of the escorts! With that, the man swooped down on the bushes to the east like birds.
The two people in the carriage just bumped into each other and were not injured, Li Shimin is so angry! In total, he came out twice, both times he was assassinated, got out of the car, and despite the opposition of the guards, he reached out and snatched the horizontal knife from the hand of one of the guards: "If you want my life, who will I come to, come with me." "How dare the guards?
are desperately trying to block it, joking, they can die, if something happens to Your Majesty, it is small that they die, and it is estimated that the whole family will be implicated. Li Shimin and Li Shiji have both been on the battlefield, so they are not very afraid, seeing that they can't break through the guard's protection, they angrily kicked the guards a few times, and stood in the middle of the demonstration angrily, looking at the bushes in the east, because there are many arrows on the horse, there are many in the east, because there are many bushes in the east, and people can be hidden.
After a while, Shadowless came out of the bushes to the east with a person, and the others obviously had nothing to gain. Yes, the two guards who went to the west also returned with a corpse each. In the direction of Baiyun Mountain, several war horses galloped over.
The person who came was Niu Jinda, and when he came to him, he saw the horse that had fallen to the ground, and he understood everything. Scared out of a cold sweat, it's so dangerous, if something happens to Li Shimin, he can't tell clearly, he wants His Majesty to come, and his suspicion is the greatest.
"The minister is afraid, is Your Majesty okay?" Hurry up and say hello.
"I'm hard, I can't die! See who it is? ”
There were no marks on the bodies of the two corpses, and the calluses on their hands were traces left by long-term weapon training. The person in the shadowless hand seemed to be still breathing.
"He was hit by my shadowless needle, he didn't hit him, and he was blocked. The rest, who missed the blow and immediately fled away, seemed to be very experienced killers.
"Damn, leave it to me, it's an iron man, and the old cow wants him to speak."
"When it comes to asking for confessions, if we can't ask them, whoever asks them will be in vain, and in many cases, it is not enough to use torture alone. Night boy, three boys, this person gives you, I don't care what the method is, I want the result. "Wuying didn't give people to Niu Jinda, but named two people among the guards.
"Yes, head, don't worry." Took the man.
"Then, Your Majesty, why don't you go back to the city, and this one will go back to Chang'an to experiment again?" Niu Jinda asked Li Shimin.
"Hmph, there are more people in the world who want to die, and some people are unwilling! I've fought all my life, I've never been afraid of how to write, keep walking, I want to see if I deserve to die here. ”
So, replace the dead horse. Li Shimin didn't take the carriage this time, pulled a war horse, carried a horizontal knife at his waist, turned over on the horse, shouted angrily, and took the lead in moving forward.
The two bodies were still in the bushes, and one of the captured assassins and one of the guards got into the carriage and continued to run towards Baiyun Mountain......
What no one noticed was that on a tree beside the road, something like a dead branch suddenly moved, and it was a man in black, and the color of the cloak on his body was almost the color of tree bark. Looking at the people and horses in the distance, a few ups and downs, disappeared into the bushes......
Chang'an, in the prince's mansion, the crown prince Li Chengqian did not go to the palace today, he has not seen his father for a few days, the seventeen-year-old Li Chengqian is obviously inconsistent with history, the prince is only nine years old in history, but now Li Chengqian is seventeen years old.
Since he was crowned the crown prince, he began to learn to read excerpts in the palace of political participation, and helped his father deal with the government affairs, and now it has been two years, especially this year, my father almost does not go to the palace of politics.
Although he is the crown prince, few of those old ministers in the court take themselves in their eyes, because his father is still in the prime of life. This made Li Chengqian very uncomfortable.
The strange thing is that the father rarely leaves the palace, and he doesn't know what magic Luoyang has, so he actually attracts the father to pay a private visit......
