Chapter 277 Assassination (1) Standing outside the city, looking at the fallen leaves all over the ground, and then looking up at the bare treetops, Wei Qiao felt for the first time that autumn was so bleak and lonely.

In the distance, a convoy slowly drove away, dozens of guards outside, and two women in the carriage.

Wu Qingning went to the forbidden army outside the city to point out the generals, and then went directly south.

Wei Qiao looked at the convoy that gradually disappeared in front of him, and sighed melancholy.

"Forget the old guard, everyone is gone." The fat man, who has always been heartless, rarely sighed in front of Wei Qiao, and said with a sad face.

This separation, even if there is a reunion again, I am afraid that things are not in the right and wrong.

Wei Qiao smiled stiffly and said, "It's okay, let's go, let's go and send Gao Ge Lao again." ”

Gao Qi also left Jinling today, he took the lead in going south, and then joined Wu Qingning in Jiangnan to sweep and pacify Jiangnan together.

There are not many honor guards in Takasaki, an ordinary carriage, a hundred and ten guards, and then some family members, simple and convenient.

Gao Qi knows that he can come back alive or not, not to say how dangerous Jiangnan is, but that he is also in his sixties this year, and his life is rare for seventy years, where can he Gao Qi live long?

Gao Qi's light car is simple, which makes Chang Zhi behind him blush for a while, their fleet is luxurious, there are many servants, and the old man of Gao Ge is like a hillbilly, and there is no comparable surname at all.

The fat man on the side laughed, and even Wei Qiao couldn't help laughing.

And Gao Qi's face is dark, he is confident that the Gao family also has some property, not to mention that he is a pavilion elder, his younger brother is also a Confucian in the dynasty, and his income is second to none in Daqi, but compared with these few in front of him, it is really small and incomparable!

Chang Zhi and the others walked to Gao Qi's side with their heads down, cold sweat on their faces. Things have come to this point, and it's useless to explain again, so I can only wait for the storm of Gao Ge Lao.

Gao Qi's face was dark, but in the face of the black-pressed send-off procession, he could only suppress his anger in his heart, glared at a few people fiercely, and stepped forward to say goodbye to Fu Li Changsong and a few others.

Wei Qiao looked at a few people from a distance, and saw that the three of them didn't seem to have much hypocrisy, their expressions were indifferent, they smiled calmly, and they seemed to be discussing something, frowning and thinking from time to time, and debating and discussing.

The huge convoy waited for the holy decree in the autumn wind, which was another comfort, and even left one of Takasaki's sons in Jinling with a knighthood in advance.

After the holy decree was read, Concubine Zhen suddenly appeared again, on behalf of the emperor and chatted with Gao Ge Lao a few words, Wei Qiao was far away, but he also found that many people in front of him were saying things like 'the emperor's grace' and 'extremely honorable'.

In the middle of the day, in the midst of almost the send-off of the civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty, Gao Qi's convoy slowly left Jinling.

"One less." When Takasaki's convoy left the east gate of Jinling, Niu Ichiro on the side of Weiqiao sighed with a complicated expression.

Wei Qiao also nodded silently, as Niu Yilang, he can naturally know some things that others can't know.

Now it's the last minute. There is only one Fu Ge elder left in the cabinet, and it is rumored that the Privy Council has set up a platform, and the emperor is determined to set up a Privy Council to coordinate the army.

It's really a wave of unsettled, endless. Wei Qiao couldn't help but say secretly in his heart.

In the afternoon, he returned to the Yushitai, and Wei Qiao dealt with his share of affairs as always.

"My lord, this is the excerpt you wanted." Shen Yutong bowed down and placed a bunch of folds on Wei Qiao's table.

Wei Qiao was stunned, raised his head from the fold, and looked at him with a confused look, but then he immediately took a copy and asked while flipping through it, "All here?" ”

Shen Yutong said, "Yes." ”

Wei Qiao nodded, and looked at the excerpts, which were about the Jinling disaster relief, and also related to the movements of the Northwest Disaster Relief Camp.

These excerpts are full of flowers, all of them are fake and empty, there is no truth, Wei Qiao looked at them one after another, and finally threw the folds on the table, frowned and said: "Is there any news about Li Ge Lao?" ”

The Imperial History Observatory is now inspecting Jinling, and there is almost nothing to hide from the supervision of the Imperial History. When Shen Yutong heard this, he thought about it slightly, and hurriedly said: "My lord, Elder Li Ge is selling his wealth for disaster relief. ”

"Oh?" Wei Qiao's expression showed a hint of surprise, and then said, "Is there any news in the northwest?" ”

Shen Yutong shook his head, and then said in a low voice: "I heard that the eldest prince Li fled to Jiangnan. ”

Wei Qiao's expression showed a hint of strangeness, if it was Li Yuanfang who let his son go to Jiangnan, Wei Qiao didn't believe it; But if not, doesn't that mean that Mr. Li is afraid of crime and absconding?

In this way, if you want to investigate it, Li Yuanfang is afraid that she will not be able to argue, right?

Wei Qiao glanced at Shen Yutong, who also looked puzzled, and his eyes showed a hint of understanding, in this matter, someone must have reached out and muddied the water inside.

Shen Yutong looked hesitant, frowned and whispered, "My lord, I just heard a piece of news, I don't know if it's true or not. ”

Wei Qiao glanced at him suspiciously, and said, "If there is anything you can't say, say it." ”

Shen Yutong's expression was with a hint of solemnity, and he looked at Wei Qiao and said in a low voice, "My lord, I just heard the report of the people below, saying that I saw the Ouchi guards at the gate of Xicheng. ”

Ouchi guards?

Wei Qiao's expression was startled, and then his eyes flickered, and after a long time, he turned his head to look at Shen Yutong and said, "Do you know what the Royal Forest Army has moved recently?" ”

Shen Yutong was taken aback by Wei Qiao's solemn face, and hurriedly suppressed the panic in his heart, and said, "Not yet." ”

After Wei Qiao heard this, he frowned and lowered his head and groaned, the appearance of the inner guards must be related to the change of the forbidden army outside the city, and I don't know how Wu Qingning is doing now, is it really successful?

Although he knew that the martial apprentice's arrangement must be foolproof, Wei Qiao couldn't help but drill the tip of the bull's horns in his heart, and he couldn't pull it out in that case.

After a long time, Wei Qiao also realized that this would not work, let out a faint breath, and smiled at Shen Yutong, who was still standing behind him, and said, "It's okay, you go, I'll go out for a walk." ”

Shen Yutong agreed, and quietly retreated with a somewhat strange face.

Wei Qiao cleaned up, got up and walked outside.

Yushitai has been quite lively recently, and with the departure of Chang Zhi and others, almost everyone in Yushitai regards Niu Ichiro as a hero, and his enthusiasm for work is unprecedentedly high.

Wei Qiao smiled and greeted people all the way. Wei Qiao can be said to be a special existence in Yushitai, the kind of person who seems to be a good person who is too much and will not stay for a long time, so no matter who greets him with a smile and is extremely polite and respectful.

Come to think of it, with Wei Qiao's background, where can this little Yushitai stay, and leave sooner or later, there is naturally no need for everyone to offend a disinterested and promising person.

Wei Qiao walked in the courtyard and unconsciously walked to the gate. Looking at the autumn wind and falling leaves outside, Wei Qiao's heart moved, and he walked out.

"Uncle."

As soon as Wei Qiao stepped out of the door with one foot, the elusive Wen Pang suddenly appeared in front of Wei Qiao's eyes, close at hand.

Wei Qiao was stunned, looked at Wen Pang who was standing in front of him blocking his way, and said with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong?" ”

Wen Pang frowned slightly, his face, which had always been indifferent, showed a rare trace of solemnity, and said, "Uncle, I feel a murderous aura. ”

The so-called feeling of murderous aura is naturally not a murderous aura, but an extremely acute intuition of people who have been living and dying for a long time.

People like Wen Pang generally don't speak, and when they do, they won't be wrong! Wei Qiao naturally didn't ask anything, his expression became cold, and he said, "Coming at me?" ”

Wen Pang nodded and said, "I didn't know just now, but now it must be." ”

Wei Qiao frowned slightly, his eyes flashed slightly, and he didn't know why Zhou Shangde's smiling face suddenly appeared in front of him.

Wei Qiao looked up and said, "Are you sure?" ”

Wen Pang frowned slightly, and said, "There are at least fifty of them, and their skills are similar to ours." ”

Wei Qiao's eyes finally showed a trace of solemnity, Wen Pang only brought twenty people, but the other party had another fifty people, and I am afraid that few people in the Yushi Observatory would come in handy.

Wei Qiao thought of Yushitai, and suddenly said, "By the way, is Du Zhen available?" "Du Zhen was assigned to the Yushitai and has been standing guard for Niu Yilang.

Wen Pang shook his head and said with a cold expression: "At this time, you can't take any danger. ”

Wei Qiao nodded, didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "I'll listen to your arrangement now." ”

Wen Pang looked stunned, then nodded and said: "They are not in place yet, let's leave quickly, I sent someone to inform the Yulin Army before and I don't know if they have been intercepted and killed." ”

Wei Qiao nodded, and strode west with Wen Pang, there was the imperial palace, if there was any abnormal movement, it would be easy to attract the attention of the Yulin Army and the Imperial Forest Army. Otherwise, even if Wei Qiao hides in the Yushitai, I am afraid it will not be safe, these people are the same as Wen Pang are the elite of a hundred battles, and the small Yushitai can't stop it at all.

Wen Pang walked briskly with Wei Qiao, but he could always feel that the cold killing intent was like a maggot on the tarsal bones, staring at his back.

Wei Qiao finally felt depressed, the usually lively street was empty at this time, deserted, only the fallen leaves rose and fell there.

He walked out dozens of steps, and suddenly, on the left and right of the two, five black-clothed people jumped out, slashing their knives diagonally, and quickly approached the two.

"Stop them." Wen Pang pulled Wei Qiao's footsteps and kept snorting.

The guards behind the two immediately rushed up ten people and intercepted the black-clothed people on both sides.

Wen Pang ran fast, but his face became more and more solemn. There are only twenty people in total, and ten will be removed at once, and I don't know how many people are ambushed in front of me!

Feeling the cold wind whistling in his ears, Wei Qiao's heart jumped out of his intuition, his throat was stuck by something, and his face turned red.

The two of them didn't stop, and they ran dozens of steps quickly, and ten black-clothed people appeared silently on both sides again. They stood there, holding their swords, and they did not move.

Wen Pang's face was as cold as water, and he said coldly: "Block them." ”

The last ten guards behind the two immediately rushed forward and silently confronted the ten men.

Wei Qiao was pulled by Wen Pang and strode forward, the cold wind was whistling in his ears, and his heart was pounding as if it was jumping out
