Chapter 157 I know it
At this time, the wing room was already crowded with people, in addition to Peng Qian, Chu Lianyu, Ding Feng and others, Tai Shuhong also came to the room, and some of the rest of the ministers in the court were all blocked outside the house by the guards in front of the door.
At this time, the entire post house had exploded, the voices of people were boiling, the noise was everywhere, the guards and generals were shuttling, and the shouts of arresting the assassins were endless.
He Yuan also rushed over as soon as the incident happened, because he came in a hurry, he was still wearing a middle coat, and he was just wearing a big coat outside, seeing that the guards below were gathered in the courtyard, He Yuan shouted and asked, "What's going on?"
A guard squeezed out of the crowd, and when he came to He Yuan, he said in a trembling voice: "My lord, something is wrong, General Lin just ...... I was stabbed by an assassin in my room just now......"
Hearing this, He Yuan's head buzzed, and he almost fainted on the spot.
He secretly screamed that it was over! Lin Haotian was assassinated in the room he had arranged, so he would definitely be implicated. It's just that He Yuan is puzzled, the entire post house is so tightly guarded, how could there be assassins, how did the assassins get in, and who are they?
There were too many questions in his heart, and his head was a mess, and he stood in place for a long time
"My lord, my lordβ"
The guards called out urgently.
He Yuan recovered from the shock, his body shook violently, grabbed the guard's arm, and asked urgently, "Where is General Lin now?" Yes...... Is it dead or wounded?"
The guard shook his head and said, "The subordinates don't know, General Lin is still in the wing......"
Before he could finish speaking, He Yuan had already rushed over quickly, and he walked through the crowd to the door of the wing. I saw more than a dozen soldiers in front of me blocking the door tightly.
He stepped forward and said urgently: "The lower official is He Yuan, now I want to see General Lin......
The assassin entered through a secret passage in the chamber, and a fool could see that the assassin must not be able to escape from He Yuan, and now where did the soldiers dare to let him approach Lin Haotian.
The guards stood still, not moving. They were expressionless, staring at He Yuan coldly.
"Hurry up, I want to see General Lin!"
Now He Yuan is most anxious to figure out Lin Haotian's life and death, if Lin Haotian is not dead, he may still have a chance to plead, if Lin Haotian is dead, then he will be completely hopeless.
No matter how anxious he was, the guards guarding the door didn't seem to hear him, that is, no one answered. There was no one to make way for her.
At this time, He Yuan was really anxious, he didn't bother to say more, and directly squeezed sideways inside.
These soldiers in front of the door are all selected from the army, they don't care who you are, how big your official position is, seeing that He Yuan wants to break in, a soldier stretched out his hand and pressed on his chest. Pushing outward with an inch of strength, he shouted at the same time: "Bold!"
He Yuan is just a civil official. Unable to tie the chicken, he felt as if he had been hit head-on by a galloping horse, and his body flew out involuntarily, falling heavily for a long distance.
Seeing this, the guards who came with He Yuan rushed up. Some people helped him up, others glared angrily at the soldiers in front of the door, and many showed their weapons.
The soldiers in front of the door ignored the waiters in the courtyard, and stood straight one by one, with one hand behind their backs. Holding the handle of the knife under his ribs with one hand, the lifeless expression on his face did not change at all.
"No one is allowed to do anything!" He Yuan, who was helped up, could no longer feel the pain in his body, he took two quick steps forward, turned around, and waved his hand at the many guards.
After stabilizing his subordinates first, he turned around and bowed his hand to the soldier in front of the door and said, "This official has no malicious intentions, he just wants to see General Lin...... How's his injury?"
Still no one answered him, and at this time, a person came out of the room, it was the prime minister Tai Shuhong.
Seeing Tai Shuhong come out, He Yuan seemed to have seen a savior, hurriedly stepped forward, and asked with concern: "Prime Minister, General Lin, ...... he?"
Tai Shuhong frowned, looked left and right, then grabbed He Yuan's arm, pulled him aside, and asked in a cold voice, "You sent the assassin?"
"When...... Of course not!" He Yuan replied with a pale face.
"Why is there a secret passage in that room?" Tai Shuhong stared at him with cold eyes, and said: "It was through the secret passage that the assassin sneaked into the chamber, and at the beginning, it was you who took the initiative to let Lin Haotian live in the room where the secret passage was hidden, what was your intention? If the assassins were not sent by you, how would they know about this secret passage, and how would they enter this secret passage? I am afraid that you will not be able to get away with tonight's assassination!"
After listening to Tai Shuhong's words, He Yuan was dumbfounded.
There is a secret passage in the wing, which he knows, but the reason why he built this secret passage in the first place was mainly to take refuge and escape for his life, because he has never used it, he almost forgot this secret passage, who would have thought that it was his negligence that almost caused a catastrophe.
After staying for a while, he shivered and said urgently, "Secret...... What is the secret way...... It was my negligence that I forgot to inform General Lin......"
Before he finished speaking, Tai Shuhong had already interrupted impatiently: "Lord He, you can keep this and explain it to the king!"
"But this ...... This is indeed the truth!" He Yuan was so anxious that he was sweating like rain, and after a pause, he suddenly seemed to think of something, and said hurriedly: "Oh......! The general also knows this secret passage!"
After hearing this, the wrinkles on Tai Shuhong's forehead deepened, he looked directly at He Yuan, and said in a deep voice: "How could Du Qing know that there is a secret passage hidden in your room?"
"At the banquet tonight, the general chatted with the lower officials, during which he asked whether the arrangements around the courtyard of the lower officials were proper and whether there were any mistakes, and the result was ...... As a result, the lower official said that he leaked his mouth for a while......"
Sure enough, it was him again!
Tai Shuhong subconsciously clenched his fists, then waved his hand again, and said to He Yuan: "I understand, you go down first, and when the king asks tomorrow, I will help you explain clearly." β
When He Yuan heard this, he was so moved that he almost didn't shed tears, his legs bent uncontrollably, knelt on the ground, kowtowed like pounding garlic, and said, "Prime Minister Xie, Prime Minister Xie!"
Tai Shuhong didn't look at him again, shook his head, and then strode out of the courtyard. accept
In the wing room, Lin Haotian's injuries were not serious, just two cuts on his shoulders, skin trauma, stop the bleeding, take medicine and there is no big problem, the reason why he is still asleep is because of the relationship between the incense.
Before dawn, Lin Haotian woke up from a coma, at this time, although he had regained his senses, his head was still groggy and aching, and after a while, he remembered what happened at night.
Seeing him wake up, Peng Qian and Chu Lianyu on the side hurriedly approached him and asked with concern, "How do you feel?"
Lin Haotian shook his head slightly and said, "I'm fine!" After a pause, he asked again, "Who were the people who assassinated me last night?"
Chu Lianyu stomped his foot fiercely and said angrily: "There were three assassins who assassinated the Lord last night, one of whom was killed by the Lord, and the other two committed suicide by poisoning themselves before being captured. β
Lin Haotian supported the bed with his arms and sat up slowly, Chu Lianyu hurriedly stepped forward to help, and put the pillow up and cushioned it behind his back.
Lin Haotian rubbed his temples and asked, "Have you found out who it is?"
At this time, Ding Feng strode forward and said indignantly: "Do you still need to check? It must be someone sent by He Yuan!"
Lin Haotian glared at Ding Feng dissatisfied, and scolded: "Don't talk nonsense, everything must be evidence! Lian Yu, does the other party still have the same party?"
"There is no proof of death, and his subordinates have sent General Lu to lead people to investigate carefully!"
Lin Haotian lowered his gaze and did not speak again.
At this time, Chu Lianyu leaned into Lin Haotian's ear and said, "My lord, according to me, this matter must be inseparable from Du Qing!"
Lin Haotian nodded, pondered for a moment, he raised his head, looked at Chu Lianyu, and said: "I also think that this matter has nothing to do with He Yuan, if it were you, would you choose to attack me when I checked into my room......?
