After the plan to capture the thief was completed, the moon slowly climbed up the treetops, and the bright moonlight sprinkled onto the earth, Liu Yu, who had already passed the excitement, showed sleepiness, yawned and asked: "Zhang Jiayang, are you accurate in observing the sky, the assassin will not come tonight." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"Lord Wang, otherwise you go to the guest room to rest first, and I will guard outside the door. Zhang Jiayang said.

Yuan Ang then said: "Yes, Lord Wang, you better rest first, I'm afraid that no assassin dares to come, let you protect the lower officials, if there is any mistake, it is not easy to explain to the emperor." ”

"Well, you two keep watch at the door of this room, if an assassin comes, he must be caught, this king wants to see what the assassin looks like, and find out who sent it. After Liu Yu finished speaking, he walked into the guest room and fell asleep.

Zhang Jiayang squatted at the door of the guest room and carefully observed the surrounding movements, not daring to be careless, Yuan Ang was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes after a while, and fell asleep on the table with his head down, suddenly there was a black shadow on the ridge of the house, and jumped directly to the roof of the guest room from behind, light as a leaf falling without a sound, Zhang Jiayang squatted at the gate without realizing it, and later this person hung a gold hook upside down on the eaves, his head hung down to the window, pierced the window paper and looked into the room, saw Yuan Ang lying on the table sleeping Zhengxiang, only to see this person pout and change to the front door, from the eaves to observe the gate, saw Zhang Jiayang standing up from the door, holding a weapon back and forth twice, Suddenly stood and stared at the eaves where the black shadow was, the black shadow involuntarily shrank his head, Zhang Jiayang immediately realized the abnormality on the eaves, and shouted: "What kind of person, don't you show up soon?"

When the black shadow heard that Zhang Jiayang found himself, he suddenly pulled out a bright flying knife, swished towards the door where Zhang Jiayang was standing, and pierced it to the door frame accurately, Zhang Jiayang shouted: "Come on, protect the prince and Master Yuan." ”

Hearing the shout, several guards jumped into the guest room, Zhang Jiayang jumped to the door frame, only to see a note forked on the flying knife, quickly took off the flying knife, opened the note, and saw six lines of small characters on it: "Your king pretends to seek six directions, Yuan Ye has an obstacle on the road, and the villain seeks his life for money, all because of the virtuous ability can not bear to be injured, the villain reminds the master here, always guard against hidden arrow wounds." ”

Several guards gathered around the room and said, "Captain Zhang, there is no abnormality in the room, do we want to chase the assassin?"

"No need. ”

At this time, Yuan Ang had already woken up and walked over and asked, "Captain Zhang, is there really an assassin coming?"

Zhang Jiayang randomly handed the note to Yuan Ang and said, "Master Yuan, take a look for yourself." ”

Yuan Ang took the note and looked at it, and said to himself: "It turned out to be him." ”

"Does Master Yuan know who instructed the assassins to come?"

"It's just speculation, you can't say, you can't say. ”

"The assassin is there, Yuan An, if you have any clues, just tell this king, and this king will call the shots for you. I don't know when, Liu Yu was already standing behind everyone and said loudly.

"Oh, the prince has also woken up, and he doesn't dare to talk nonsense without real evidence. Yuan Ang hurriedly replied respectfully.

"Oh, it seems that the assassin is hiding very deeply, but it's a pity that this king hasn't even seen a figure, I don't know what kind of opinion Zhang Duwei has?"

Zhang Jiayang hurriedly replied: "Lord Wang, the assassin's command behind the scenes is not small. ”

Go on. ”

"Forgive me for talking too much, the behind-the-scenes command can basically be concluded to be the prince, and the power is not comparable to ordinary people. ”

"Oh, this king has already guessed one or two, if this is really the case, this king is really hard to manage, it seems that this matter should be known to my father as soon as possible. Liu Yu is really smart, Zhang Jiayang has already understood the mastermind behind this matter with a little reminder, but because he is in front of everyone, it is inconvenient to say more, so he turned to Zhang Jiayang and said, "Zhang Duwei will work hard, stay here to protect Yuan An's safety, this king will go to tell his father about this, and he can't let the loyal ministers of the country be in danger." ”

"Then what about your safety, my lord?"

"Haha, just protect Yuan An, no one can do anything to this king at the moment. Liu Yu said that he was about to go out.

"No, but the prince still rests here for the night, and will leave tomorrow morning. Zhang Jiayang hurriedly responded.

"This won't work, this king has to rest in front of the main hall of Weiyang Palace, and tell him when his father wakes up. Although Liu Yu is old-fashioned, his style of doing things is still a child after all, so he led some of the guards to leave the Yuan Mansion.

Zhang Jiayang said: "Master Yuan, go back to the room to rest, I'm afraid the assassins won't come again tonight." ”

"Zhang Duwei has worked hard, now Yuan An's official position is humble, everyone is busy for me, how can I sleep peacefully. ”

"Master Yuan is polite, it is Jiayang's heavy responsibility to protect every minister, not to mention that the prince personally led the team to come, which shows that Lord Yuan's achievements to the Han are obvious to all. ”

"Zhang Duwei has won the award, since Zhang Duwei said so, then Yuan Ang will go to the study to take a rest, and there is Lao Zhang Duwei to protect the hospital. ”

Zhang Jiayang hurriedly saluted when he heard this, and then waved his hand to let Yuan Ang leave, Yuan Ang turned around and walked to the study, walked to the study, kept pacing square steps, thinking about his own safety and survival in an instant, if it really doesn't work, even have no time to explain the future, or write a suicide note, at least let people know the reason for their murder, so Yuan Ang took out a board and a knife and pen, knelt down against the desk, brushed and wrote, the beautiful words showed the helplessness in his heart, and he also made up his mind to quietly go out to inform the ministers who went to the emperor's side with him to make speeches, so that they could be prepared。

After everything was prepared, he thought that if he went out of the house at night, Zhang Jiayang would definitely not agree, so he looked at the door where Zhang Jiayang was standing through the window of the study, and found that Zhang Jiayang was very energetic now, looking in the direction of the study from time to time, paying close attention to the movement of the study, Yuan Ang stood up straight and paced back and forth for a few steps, and suddenly had an idea, so he blew out the oil lamp, and immediately heard Zhang Jiayang walk outside his window and asked softly: "Master Yuan, are you sleeping?"

Yuan Ang immediately understood that Zhang Jiayang wanted to confirm whether he was safe, so he replied, "Captain Zhang, I'm starting to rest." ”

"Good night, Master Yuan. Immediately after that, Zhang Jiayang's footsteps moved towards the door, and there was no sound after a while.

After about an hour, there was no abnormal sound in the entire Yuan Mansion except for the insect scream, so Yuan Ang quietly put on his night clothes and went through a secret passage in the study to leave the Yuan Mansion.

I don't know how long it took, a guard came from the gate of the Yuan Mansion and ran to Zhang Jiayang's side and said: "Report to the captain, there is a fire in the northwest of the Yuan Mansion, according to the Chang'an soldiers who ran over from then on, it was reported that several important members of the imperial court were killed, and the residence was set on fire by the assassins, and now the whole city is under martial law." ”

"Oh, it's almost dawn, let's settle down Master Yuan and go over to check it out. Zhang Jiayang said and came to the outside of the study, opened the door of the study lightly, lit the oil lamp, and saw that someone seemed to be sleeping under the bedding on the bed, Zhang Jiayang looked carefully and found that there was no movement, so he was puzzled, so he quietly removed the quilt from his head, and saw that it was covered with a pillow below, and immediately shouted: "Not good." ”

Looking around again, he saw the tunnel entrance in the study, Zhang Jiayang immediately shouted: "Quick, greet the brothers, come with me, Master Yuan is in danger." ”

"No. A guard team under the leadership of Zhang Jiayang drilled into the tunnel and walked out of Yuan's mansion.

Zhang Jiayang thought a little and ran towards the place where the fire started, and when he walked to the scene of the fire, the fire had already been extinguished, and it was a house that was burning, and several soldiers were carrying a few corpses out of the courtyard, Zhang Jiayang lifted the covering on his face one by one, and when he reached the third body, he couldn't help but shout in pain: "Master Yuan, why are you suffering, you don't deserve to die." ”

At this time, a Dali came out of the courtyard, the official in charge of investigating the case, and said softly: "Zhang Duwei, all the ministers were injured in the neck with a sharp weapon and died, and they died of his murder. ”

"Oh, did the murderer get caught?"

"Nobody saw it. Dali spread his hands and walked out of the courtyard quickly.

Zhang Jiayang also wanted to leave to report to Liu Yu, but a soldier appeared to block the way, only to see this person, long beard and thick eyebrows, broad lips, bronze face, this person is the ranger who walked into Chang'an yesterday, I don't know when I changed into a set of soldiers' clothes.

Zhang Jiayang didn't know each other, so he shouted: "Which line of troops are you, is there something wrong with Captain Bendu?"

I saw this person hugging his fists and said: "Presumably this is Zhang Duwei, the little one knows who killed Master Yuan and the others." ”

"Oh, let's take a look. ”

"The assassins are in Suiyang. ”

Zhang Jiayang's heart immediately tightened, thinking that even if this person was not an assassin's internal response, he was also related to the assassin, otherwise how could he know so much detail, exactly the same as what he knew, so he said: "Then you can go to the king of Jiaodong with me to make a proof, and there must be evidence when you speak." ”

"The small one is busy, and it is inconvenient to go, but there is still Captain Lao Zhang to tell the prince that it is okay to leave. The soldier said that he was about to leave.

Zhang Jiayang drew his sword and jumped over to block the way, and said: "You still go with Bendu Lieutenant to the prince to make it clear, otherwise Bendu Lieutenant will not be easy to deal with." ”

I saw that the soldiers bypassed Zhang Jiayang's defense line without hurrying, and said with a smile: "Captain Zhang, this matter is not a small matter, just to provide a message, you better not bother, you can't stop me." In the blink of an eye, the man disappeared from everyone's sight.

Zhang Jiayang stood there stunned and said softly: "There are really many people with strong martial arts in the Han Dynasty." ”

"The one who can have my Zhang Duwei is superior in martial arts. I don't know when Liu Yu was already standing behind Zhang Jiayang.

Zhang Jiayang hurriedly turned around and knelt down and said, "Lord Wang, please punish him, if he didn't do a good job of protecting Master Yuan, he still let the assassin kill him." ”

It's strange to say, Zhang Jiayang really can't get out of this matter, but Liu Yu just likes Zhang Jiayang, so he hurriedly pulled up and said: "What did Zhang Duwei say, this matter is not to blame Duwei, it was all because Yuan Ang sneaked out of the mansion, and his life should be like this." ”

"The prince is magnanimous, and Jia Yang will be a dog and horse in the future. ”

"Hahaha, good, good. Liu Yu then said, "Early in the morning, my father already knew the news of the killing of Yuan Ang and other ministers, and he was very annoyed, so he sent this king and Lieutenant Zhidu to investigate the case thoroughly. ”

"Lord Wang, who does Master Yuan estimate is the murderer?"

Liu Yu motioned for Zhang Jiayang to lower his head, leaned on Zhang Jiayang's ear and whispered, "It may be my imperial uncle, Liu Wu, King of Liang." ”

Zhang Jiayang then replied: "Just now there was a soldier who said that he knew that the assassin was there, and told me that he was in Suiyang, which is too coincidental. ”

"Oh, where is this person?" Liu Yu hurriedly asked.

"This person's martial arts are far higher than below, and he has disappeared without a trace before the arrival of the prince, so he can't stop this person. ”

"Oh, his martial arts are so good, if I see him again in the future, this king must see him. ”

"No. ”
