Chapter 6: The Assassins
"It seems that I'm very problematic in Youfanglang......" Li Yang couldn't help but groan.
Why did the Assassin have the same hidden weapon as the darts he carried with him?
The secret weapon is the same, what about people?
In fact, the answer is already obvious.
He was one of the Assassins, but because of the mistake of the system, his soul was possessed, so he did not assassinate the Prince of Goryeo with the other Assassins.
This also explains why there is such a high level of force in a You Fang Lang.
I'm an Assassin!
Li Yang was a little speechless in his heart, and at the same time, combined with the plot, he thought of another question.
According to the plot, the assassin who assassinated the crown prince of Goryeo was the person of the Seventh Prince Li Xi, that is to say, I am also the person of the Seventh Prince Li Xi......
It's no wonder that during the daytime confrontation today, the Seven Princes will stand up and speak for me.
System white, system white, you really found me a good body.
Li Yang sighed and blew out the light.
Just as I was about to go to bed, there was a "poof" sound in the dark room, and something broke through the window paper and threw it into the house.
"Who?" Li Yang hurriedly turned over and got out of bed and rushed to the door.
But the door was not opened.
Instead, he stood vigilantly inside the door and listened attentively to the movement outside the door.
This is not a world of high martial arts, martial arts cannot decide everything, even if he has completely mastered the force of this body, it is very likely that he will die under the dark arrow.
There was not a single movement outside the door.
Let's go?
After a while, Li Yang cautiously opened the door.
There was no one outside the door.
Closing the door and lighting the lamp, Li Yang picked up the thing that had been thrown into the house from the ground.
Another familiar prismatic dart!
Don't think about it, the person who threw the dart outside the door just now must be someone from the Seven Princes.
There is also a note attached to the tail of the dart.
Remove the note from the dart and open it, with a short line written on it:
"The temple is broken three miles away on the outskirts of the city, come and see it quickly, there must be no mistake."
Li Yang twisted the note in his hand and muttered for a moment.
Although the words on the note were short, there was a tone of command between the lines, and it was obvious that the person who wrote the note was his boss.
To see, or not to see?
Li Yang stretched the note to the candle flame, and after a few "hoohoo" sounds burned to ashes, he clapped his hands, locked the door, walked out of the inn, and went outside the city.
Trouble is already on the body, and you can't hide from it.
Three miles away on the outskirts of the city.
Sure enough, there was a ruined temple here, and there was a man in black standing in the temple.
"Why are you here so late?" When the man in black saw Li Yang, he opened his mouth to reproach.
It is not difficult to see from the tone that this person is indeed Li Yang's boss, and the voice is still very familiar.
The Seven Princes!
Li Yang suddenly said in his heart, but he said respectfully: "My subordinates were worried that someone was following them, so they deliberately took a detour, which delayed some time." ”
"Can you see someone stalking?" The Seventh Prince asked a little nervously.
"Nope." Li Yang said truthfully.
If he had been followed, he wouldn't have come.
"Very good, since you have taken refuge in me, you have made a lot of contributions to me, and I will remember you." The Seventh Prince nodded with satisfaction and walked towards Li Yang.
Li Yang's heart sank.
This guy ...... Kill me!
Li Yang didn't move, he still maintained a respectful appearance of half-bowing, and his eyes were aimed at the waist of the Seventh Prince.
He didn't carry the portable sword with him, but with a sword, and at this moment, the palm of the Seventh Prince was already on the hilt.
When he walked less than one step in front of Li Yang, he suddenly drew his sword.
Li Yang was more abrupt than him.
Half a step forward, his right hand pressed the hand of the Seventh Prince to draw his sword, and his left hand clasped his throat.
"You dare to betray me!?" The Seventh Prince exclaimed in disbelief.
"Because I don't want to die yet." Li Yang finally stopped the respectful appearance just now, raised his head, straightened his waist, and was a head taller than the Seventh Prince.
The Seventh Prince still couldn't believe it, "Dog minion, who gave you the courage to dare"
"Smack!" A resounding slap was slapped in the face of the Seventh Prince, and even the black cloth that covered his face was knocked off.
The Seven Princes were completely stunned.
Li Yang proved that he not only dared, but also dared to do more.
The hand that was clasped in the throat of the Seventh Prince knocked on the Seventh Prince's Adam's apple threateningly, as if to remind him: Your little life is now in my hands.
"Okay, don't say stupid things like betrayal, dare or not, waste time, or answer my questions obediently."
The Seventh Prince's throat shook and said in a trembling voice: "You...... Ask. ”
"You killed the prince?" Li Yang asked knowingly.
He wanted to be sure if the Seventh Prince was really scared and whether he would tell the truth.
"It's not."
It's true.
Li Yang nodded with satisfaction, and then got to the point: "Did you kill General Park?" ”
“…… Be. The Seventh Prince hesitated.
Li Yang suddenly pulled out the sword at his waist and looked at the thin blade, "This is the sword, right?" ”
"Yes."
"Why did you kill him?" This is where Li Yang feels strange.
The Seventh Prince wants to kill the crown prince for the position of the crown prince, but what is the purpose of killing General Park?
"This ......" The Seventh Prince became spitting up, looking at Li Yang's eyes, full of scruples.
As soon as Li Yang saw his eyes, he guessed that it must have something to do with him, and the tip of his sword was pointed at the Seventh Prince, "You don't want to be like General Park, right?" ”
Thinking of General Park's horrific death, the Seventh Prince couldn't help but feel excited.
You must know that General Park's terrifying wound was cut out by him with a sword, and he didn't want to become that miserable state even if he was killed.
hurriedly said: "I said, I said, because I want to kill the prince and replace him, so I have been paying attention to the prince's actions, and I saw that the prince sent General Park to secretly take people out late at night, and I couldn't help but follow the past curiously, just saw the scene of the fight between you and General Park, and I also understood that the prince wanted General Park to kidnap the Song girl named Xiao Ai."
I had an idea right away.
After the assassination, the prince did not trust Gongsun Zhen's official at all, and refused Gongsun Zhen's official guards, and General Park was fully responsible, but now General Park has left, isn't this the best time to assassinate the prince?
So I sent the Assassins to assassinate the Prince, but I did not expect that someone would be the first to do so, and the Prince would have been killed before the Assassins could assassinate him. ”
"I'm asking why you killed General Park? Not the Prince. Li Yang said.
He found that the Seventh Prince had been avoiding the question.
"Because ......"
The Seventh Prince couldn't avoid it, so he could only tell the truth about the reason.
"At that time, I had just sent assassins, and I didn't know that the prince was dead, and I just wanted to expand my interests, so I thought, kill General Park, and then use you, so that the Song people can investigate the ugly story of the prince and General Park robbing the people's daughter, killing General Park, because the person is dead, there is no way to argue, and then kill the prince, I can exaggerate this ugly thing at will, and wait until this ugly matter is transmitted back to Goryeo, let my father know, my father must be angry with the prince, maybe I don't have to wait for the prince's funeral, the crown prince's position will fall on my head.
At that time, I swaggered towards General Park, and he bent down to greet me, and I responded with my mouth in response, and walked up to him, and before he could straighten up, I was taken by surprise and killed with a sword.
At the same time, I killed General Park with a sword, and this sword is very similar to Choi Kwang-ho's sword, and I deliberately scratched a lot of swords on the corpse, so that no matter how the case is investigated, only Choi Kwang-ho will be found in the end, and at that time, Choi Kwang-ho will have an affair with the county lord, and the scandal that the county lord is already pregnant will also be exposed. ”
The Seven Princes seemed to be immersed in the beautiful dream they had weaved, forgetting their dangerous situation, and their tone became more and more proud.
"Think about it, the crown prince, the chief envoy to the Song Kingdom, died, the general who accompanied him also died, and the scandal of robbing the people's daughters was exposed, and Cui Guanghao and the county lord were also exposed.
It's just me!
I'm the only one who is clean and in charge of the whole picture.
When this matter was reported back to Goryeo, my father and all the subjects of Goryeo would know that it was me Li Xi who controlled the situation, or me, who turned the tide and maintained the face of the Goryeo state and the royal family in front of the Song people. ”
Speaking of which, in one sentence: everything is for the position of the crown prince!
Even killing Li Yang is also.
As an assassin, Li Yang had been exposed to Bao Zheng and others, and in order to avoid implicating himself, the Seventh Prince of course wanted to kill him.
But he didn't expect that he would suddenly turn back and let himself fall into a dead end.
"You don't have to kill me."
The Seventh Prince looked at Li Yang and swore an oath: "Everything goes well now, when I return to Goryeo, I will be the crown prince, and I will be the king of Goryeo in the future, and you will be under one person and above ten thousand." ”
"It must have been a wonderful taste." Li Yang seemed to be moved.
The Seventh Prince nodded again and again, and added a little more strength, "Absolutely wonderful, think about it, everyone is at your disposal, money and beauty, enjoy inexhaustible, what kind of feeling is that?" That's what a man dreams of......"
"But I don't believe you." Li Yang said suddenly.
The Seventh Prince was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he saw a cold light slashing through his throat.
"Plop" his body fell to the ground.
"I don't want to kill you, but who told you to kill me." Li Yang casually threw the sword on the ground.
"In ancient times, killing people was convenient, and you didn't have to worry about fingerprints...... No, there is Bao Zheng here. ”
Thinking of this, Li Yang stuffed the pack of prismatic darts that proved himself to be an assassin into the arms of the dead Seven Princes.
After checking it again, and after making sure that there was nothing missing, a series of footprints were forged.
The government followed this series of footprints to pursue, and could only chase farther and farther away from Luzhou City.
And Li Yang is in Luzhou City.
