The female Assassin was ultimately unsuccessful.

The emperor's personal guards and forbidden troops are not vegetarians after all. Especially now that it is outside the palace, there are so many guests, there are many people, and anything can happen, and the vigilance of the forbidden army is extremely high. The sudden explosion of a series of cannons only distracted the forbidden troops around Qian Yuanji for a moment.

Then, the four guards noticed the maid who was quietly approaching.

The moment they saw her suddenly open the tray and burst into trouble, the four guards realized the danger. The nearest guard immediately drew his sword and pounced on reads();. The rest reacted quickly, knocked Qian Yuanji down, and dodged the poison dart by a fraction of a second. The female Assassin only had such a chance to deal a blow, and when she saw that she missed a blow, it was impossible to try to remedy it.

The sword light of the forbidden guard's Xue Liang fell, seriously injuring the female assassin.

If it weren't for the fact that he wanted to catch the live mouth, the knife light was a little bit off at the last moment, and the force was a little smaller, and the knife just now was enough to kill the female assassin on the spot!

From the outbreak to the reaction of the forbidden army, it was only a second or two, which can be described as lightning and fire. Many of the guests who were a little further away didn't even realize what was happening. It wasn't until the fireworks outside the mansion stopped, a large number of forbidden troops swarmed in, and the seriously injured female assassin was taken into custody, that the people of the mansion and the guests who came to the banquet realized what had happened.

Assassinate the saint, intending to rebel!

For many years, the Qianyuan royal family has not encountered such a major event. In an instant, the entire feudal mansion was in an uproar.

Qian Yuanji didn't expect that it was rare to go out once, and he would be assassinated, and he couldn't help but turn pale. Guarded by the forbidden army, he walked a few steps tremblingly, looked at the poison dart carefully put away by the forbidden army, his expression quickly became gloomy, and the killing intent on his body almost condensed into substance.

"Who wants to assassinate me? Aren't you afraid of being wiped out by the Nine Clans? ”

As soon as he remembered that he was only a glimmer away from death just now, Qian Yuanji couldn't help but be angry and afraid.

The commander of the forbidden army around him had already reached a series of orders without his orders, the banquet was stopped, and everyone was gathered in a corner of the backyard. At the same time, the forbidden army blocked the entire feudal mansion, the four gates of the imperial capital were closed, and the whole city searched for possible accomplices of the female assassin!

By this time, the people of the Feng family had a complete understanding of what was going on.

Old lady Feng, who was still full of red light before, was already stunned by the shocks in the house, and he was quite good if he didn't faint on the spot. Feng Wu Fengxun was even more shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that there would be such a big mistake in the safety of the Feng Mansion, so that he disturbed the holy driver. After instructing the housekeeper to deal with it in a low voice, the two hurriedly stepped forward to ask for guilt, for fear that Qianyuanji would be angry with them.

Or, there is no longer a word for anger. Allowing a female assassin to sneak into the mansion to assassinate him, sealing the mansion has an unavoidable responsibility.

The eldest prince and the fifth prince and several princesses also immediately stepped forward to greet Qianyuanji, their faces full of worry.

"It's okay, I'm okay!"

After a moment of buffering, Qianyuanji had initially calmed down. Looking at Feng Wu Fengxun, who was still terrified, a glimmer of light flashed in his cloudy eyes, and he said flatly: "Two Aiqing, this is really a good banquet!" ”

Saying this, he didn't wait for Feng Wu Fengxun to explain, he flicked his sleeves and strode away under the protection of the forbidden army.

As the emperor got off, the huge feudal mansion resounded with a buzzing discussion. At this point, it is impossible to have any birthdays. The two important ministers of the Feng family glanced at each other, smiled bitterly, and could only order the stewards of the Feng Mansion to send the guests away first, and then immediately started the investigation!

They must be the first to find out the true identity of the Assassin and give His Majesty an account before the royal investigation reveals the situation.

………

As the night passed, the explosive news spread throughout Midstate.

When the current saint attended the birthday of the old man of Fengfu, he was assassinated by assassins!

Of course, Qian Yuanji was reluctant to publicize this matter, but there were too many guests present. Even if everyone didn't say anything nonsense, the news still leaked quickly and spread throughout Zhongzhou. Even if there are still suspicions, the Praetorian Guards who have blocked the city gates and searched the whole city are enough to prove this.

For a time, all kinds of analytical speculations and even grotesque and crazy remarks spread all over Zhongzhou.

Some people guess that it was the Omanis or the Lena sent out the dead room; Some people speculate that the Feng family is trying to rebel; Some people even suspected that a certain prince wanted to kill the army and usurp the throne. All kinds of rumors have put a veil of mystery on this assassination case that shocked the imperial court.

What's even worse is that the female assassin who committed the assassination took poison in advance and died of poison on the way back from escorting, adding a bit of confusion to the facts of this case.

Apparently, the female assassin did not intend to escape alive when she attacked.

When Ji Junchen's military intelligence bureau took over this case, it encountered this kind of situation where all the clues were broken. However, this important minister, who has been in charge of the military intelligence agency for more than a decade, has shown extraordinary means. may have been derelict in the Songjiang Army and Wudou Midao one after another, but in Zhongzhou, where the military intelligence bureau has the tightest network, it has energy beyond the imagination of others.

In just half a day, Qian Yuanji received a report from Ji Junchen.

"The identity of the female assassin has been confirmed."

Ji Junchen had already memorized all the important information on the report, and said without looking at it: "It's the granddaughter of General Li Guang'an, who was exiled to the northwest eighteen years ago." ”

"Li Guang'an!"

Hearing this name, Qian Yuanji recalled a corner of dusty history, and the muscles on his face couldn't help shaking. This is a name he doesn't want to think of, for no other reason, Qian Yuanji feels ashamed.

As for why Li Guangan's granddaughter assassinated him, Qian Yuanji probably guessed the other party's motives.

The anger that had not slept all night, after learning the answer, suddenly vented a lot, making him feel a little weak and empty.

"Upon examination, the female assassin's body showed signs of special training. The poison on the poison dart, as well as the poison pill taken before the assassination, came from the black guards of Oman. She sold herself and infiltrated the Fengfu a month ago, and remained incognito until yesterday - perhaps she guessed His Majesty's whereabouts in advance, and it was not ruled out that she had other plans, but she temporarily made up her mind when she saw His Majesty coming. ”

"It's worth mentioning ......"

Speaking of this, Ji Junchen glanced up at His Majesty, and stopped talking.

Qian Yuanji was stunned for a moment, realizing that there was probably something else hidden in this case, so he waved his hand and said, "Just say it." ”

"First of all, there is a suspicion about the Assassins."

With the permission of the saint, Ji Junchen said slowly: "According to the records, Li Guangan was exiled to Wuwei County in the northwest, and he died of depression until five years ago. His granddaughter disappeared after three more years. From her disappearance to her appearance in the Zhongzhou Fengfu a month ago, how did she collude with the black-clothed guards of the Kingdom of Oman in the southeast of the empire? ”

It stands to reason that one is northwest and the other is southeast, and there are thousands of miles in between. Moreover, with the Tiannan Army and the Nanfeng Fortress as a line of defense, the Omani black-clothed guards generally rarely operated in the hinterland of the empire, and were mainly confined to Tiannan County itself. Being able to buy and train a woman far away in the Northwest County in this amount of time, and try to operate and arrange for her to assassinate the current saint, is a bit beyond the ability of the Black Guard.

The poison on the poison pills and poison darts from the black guards was more like a deliberate attempt than proof of identity.

"Suspicious indeed reads();."

Qian Yuanji nodded, it seems that someone has taken advantage of this criminal minister's daughter.

So, who is the user behind this scene?

Half a day, of course, is not enough for Ji Junchen to thoroughly investigate the truth. But during his investigation, he found another thing, and this was the main factor that he wanted to stop talking about before.

Seeing Qian Yuanji urging himself with stern eyes, Ji Junchen took a deep breath and finally spoke: "It has also been verified that Li Guang'an, the granddaughter, had briefly appeared in a manor in Ziwu Mountain, three miles away from the imperial capital, before entering the feudal mansion in Zhongzhou. ”

"Well, what's wrong with that?"

Qian Yuanji hadn't reacted for a while, and he didn't understand why Ji Junchen wanted to emphasize this point.

"On Ziwu Mountain, there is only one imperial village, which was given to ...... by you before" In just one sentence, Ji Junchen felt that it weighed a thousand catties when he said it, and he was sweating all over his head.

Qian Yuanji's face changed.

His old fingers clenched the tea bowl in his hand violently, and his breathing was tight. For a moment, Ji Junchen almost felt that the air in the entire study had stagnated. However, just when he thought that the old emperor was going to be angry, Qian Yuanji forcibly controlled his feelings.

"The Five Princes?" He smiled and said, "Do you want to say that my Fifth Prince took in that assassin, or that he simply wanted to kill the king?" ”

"Don't dare!"

Ji Junchen was frightened and hurriedly kowtowed to apologize. The crime of provoking the monarch's father and the prince, even if he punishes the nine clans, Ji Junchen doesn't have the courage to kill him.

"Get up."

Qian Yuanji beckoned, pondered silently for a moment, and suddenly said: "That prince of mine, although he is not as good as the boss in this regard, he can still hide a person, at least not in half a day You will find clues." Tell me, who did you dig this news from? ”

Ji Junchen was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and flipped through the report, and found the answer in an inconspicuous corner, before he replied: "In the Ziwu Mountain Imperial Villa, at least two people have witnessed female assassins, and now they have been mastered by our military intelligence agency. ”

"So, did you ask them how the assassins got into the Imperial Estate?"

Qian Yuanji seemed to have asked a question with other meanings.

"This ......"

Ji Junchen opened his mouth, but he couldn't answer, and was asked by Qian Yuanji.

Since the Assassins appeared in Huangzhuang, who brought them in? Although the defense of the Ziwu Mountain Imperial Palace is not as good as that of the Zhongzhou Imperial Palace, it is also a two-layer sentry inside and outside.

Thinking of this, Ji Junchen couldn't help but have fine beads of sweat on his forehead, realizing that he had neglected an important detail.

In fact, he really isn't to blame for that. In normal times, Ji Junchen's ability would definitely be able to think of this. The point is that the impact of this assassination case is too great, and he is eager to investigate and come up with a result to reply to Qian Yuanji. Only after verifying most of the information, I hurried over.

"Go back and check it out."

Qian Yuanji seemed to have a guess, but his expression looked even more tired, and he said to him, "Maybe there will be some coincidence." ”
