147. Assassination, the prelude to the seizure of the heir?

A group of teenagers and girls at the headquarters of the Holy Gate were having a picnic around the Son.

Shaded by trees, laughter and laughter.

Not far from here is the official road.

The road is long, and the sky is high.

Under the blue sky, not far away, dust is flying.

The sound of horses' hooves suddenly broke the silence of the afternoon.

A blood-red steed, carrying a young man dressed in rich clothes, was galloping wildly, the young man's skin was dark, and his sweat was even blacker.

Behind him were two knights with swords on their backs, nervously holding the unsheathed swords, guarding the young man's sides.

Sou!

An arrow shot out of the shadows.

The swordsman on the left seemed to have sensed it, and subconsciously swung his sword to pick it.

But the arrow seemed to be alive, and halfway through it, it suddenly accelerated twice.

Burst!!

An arrow pierced the heart, and the swordsman fell off his horse, rolling in the dust a few times.

The swordsman on the right roared angrily: "Second brother!!"

However, he could not dismount to check on it, because he had to protect the boy in front of him.

This young man is his master, Wei Xu, the fifth prince of Great Wei who was banished from the center of power.

The fifth prince has the grace of knowing his two brothers, and he is even more affectionate and righteous, and the chivalrous man deserves to die.

But this time there were many accidents, and they didn't even know who the enemy was, so they were inexplicably assassinated.

If you insist on saying when it started, it should start with a secret edict from the royal capital that the five princes received.

The enemy moves his bow like a god, always in the shadows.

The chivalrous man thought about it, suddenly turned around and said to the young man who was running in front of him: "The prince will go first, and I will cut off the back." ”

The dark-skinned boy sighed heavily, tears welling up in his eyes, and his hands clenched the horse's mane, showing anger and sadness in his heart.

While!!

Suddenly, there was an extremely sharp sound of metal cracking behind him.

Wei Xu looked sideways and couldn't help but be stunned.

I saw a long arrow shoot the sword of the broken knight, and then the remaining strength took the knight up and shot it on an old mulberry tree.

What a poisonous archery!

That's a lot of strength!

The fifth prince is not stupid, at this moment, he has already guessed that someone does not want to return to the royal capital.

This time I went back to take the heir, but my father's edict had to obey, and my father's health was weak, shouldn't the son go back to fulfill his filial piety?

However, someone wanted him to never be able to set foot in the royal capital.

Wei Xu lowered his body and whipped his horsewhip, "Holy Son, where are you? I traveled hundreds of miles to Qishui City just to find you! As long as I meet you, I can be saved!"

After the prince felt the horror of the assassin, he immediately remembered the holy son who happened to be patrolling in Beiliang Prefecture, so he thought of looking for him and returning to the royal capital with him.

It's a pity that on his way to Seven Waters City, he was chased and killed all the way.

When he went to the city, he learned that the Son had just left the city.

So, Wei Xu hurriedly led the rest of his subordinates to find the Holy Son, but he didn't expect to be pursued and killed by the mysterious assassin again.

That assassin was too powerful.

The guards around him, the masters, died one after another.

Now, he is dead, and he is left alone.

Suddenly, he noticed the carriage by the stream in the forest, and a group of young men and girls in gorgeous clothes, the person in the center, even if he looked at it from a distance, he felt extraordinary.

Wei Xu had a judgment in his heart.

"Fight, life and death are fate!"

Thinking of this, he quickly turned the horse's head in the direction of the carriage, flicked the whip fiercely, and then flipped his body, and the whole person hung upside down under the horse's belly.

Sou!!

Almost at the same time, a flickering arrow pierced through the void and landed at his original location.

The arrow pierced through the horse's body, and the blood-red horse was aroused to the wildness, and galloped wildly to the stream.

Xia Ji saw the abnormal situation over there early.

The younger sisters were chattering and discussing where this wild horse came from.

The juniors were careful enough to hold their hands on the hilt of the sword.

But the blood-red horse is quite fierce.

There was a roar from under the horse's belly: "Get out of the way!!"

The younger sisters are discolored.

Xia Ji got up calmly and stepped forward from the retreating junior brothers and sisters.

In his eyes, the frantic horse rose from the air because of the pain, and the extremely heavy body carried the powerful inertia of the impact, smashing like a meteor, bringing a vicious wind.

Xia Ji quickly stepped forward in three steps and two steps, and then raised his hand.

The palm of his hand was in the direction of the onrushing horse.

Boom!!

The palm of the hand is attached to the horse's head.

The impact produced a circular sound that quickly moved away in all directions.

The horse screamed and flew to the side, but Xia Ji did not move, only the black hair raised back a few times.

The dark-skinned fifth prince had already taken advantage of the situation to get out from under the horse's belly, and when he saw the young man in front of him, his eyes lit up, he had seen the holy son at the state banquet before, so he recognized it.

At this time, he hurriedly said: "Holy Son, I am the fifth son of King Wei, Wei Xu, we will see you before"

Before he could finish speaking, another fierce and powerful arrow burst through the air and shot straight at the back of his head, so fast that the arrow even rubbed sparks with the air.

Xia Ji casually reached out and grabbed it, and the death-like arrow was held in the palm of his hand.

Throw it away.

can

Then a faster, stronger, murderous arrow came out of the shadows, and this time it was ready to shoot through the five princes and the nosy boy together.

The fifth prince felt threatened, and he even had time to tilt his head slightly, and this time, the arrow had already arrived in front of the front door.

He was scared and closed his eyes.

But all he heard was a cold snort in his ears.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw that the Holy Son in front of him held the arrow again, and this time he did not throw it away, but shot it in the opposite direction.

True Qi poured into the arrows, like a ray of light submerged into the distance.

Almost at the same time

A woman's scream of disbelief rang out in the dense forest, and then it calmed down.

The fifth prince realized that this woman was probably the mysterious killer who chased and killed him all the way.

However, the Holy Son was able to kill the killer so accurately with a throw of his hand?

So fierce?

He suddenly felt an incomparable sense of security, and then moved a little closer to the powerful man.

Xia Ji frowned: "What are you doing?"

Only then did the fifth prince realize that he was a little too close, so he took a step back and said, "Wei Xu begs the Holy Son to escort me to the royal capital. ”

"Be specific. ”

The fifth prince touched his nose and smiled bitterly: "There has been a great change in the royal capital, the eldest brother and the third brother have suddenly died, and my father is seriously ill, so I was specially summoned back to the royal capital, but after I received the secret edict, I began to be assassinated by this terrible killer, and all the guards around me died." ”

"The prince is dead?"

"Eun is said to have died in the study. ”

"Has the murderer been found?" Xia Ji was surprised, he was ready to go to the royal capital to have a fight with the prince, after all, the prince asked the envoy to poison himself, obviously he had learned the news that Liu Pinru was dead, so the conflict between the two was inevitable.

And in terms of strength, the purple-faced Wuzun's Tongxuan seems to be also a member of the prince's camp, which is already very powerful, and he can even go sideways.

However, the crown prince still died.

This reminded him of an American drama he watched in his previous life, called power or something, and the people in it also suddenly said that they would die, and now the thing he encounters is also a little bit of this flavor, it seems to be a little different from the time travel he watched in his previous life, weird.

It stands to reason that the prince shouldn't have called for reinforcements, and then had a showdown with himself in the royal capital and had a big battle?

How do you say that death is death?

"I don't know, but I shouldn't have found the murderer," Wei Xu continued to touch his nose and smiled bitterly.

The two were talking.

The younger sisters were surrounding the red horse that had died tragically.

Sister Jinghua: "It's still hot." ”

Xiang Nuan: "Then eat it, otherwise, what a waste." ”

A group of junior sisters are all in the back and say yes.
