It is a good thing to pray for peace and prosperity between the two countries, and the emperor naturally has no reason to disallow it.

He looked at Xuan Yuan on the side and asked, "What does the Dao Chief think?" ”

Xuanyuan leaned over and replied: "Back to the saint, I have calculated before the poor road, and after ten days, it will be a good day." ”

The emperor laughed: "In that case, it will be set in ten days." Everything needed for the Dharma was arranged by the Taoist leader. At that time, I will be in the audience and pray for the Great Zhou and Xibo together with the two of them. ”

"Yes." Xuanyuan lowered his eyes and replied.

Tuo Zhi also clasped his palms together and thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty Da Zhou." ”

Today's three competitions were all won, and the emperor was in a good mood, smiled and said a few words to everyone, and then drove back to the palace first.

Taiqingguan is located on the Huaishan Mountain Range outside the city of Yingdu, and there are three main peaks of Yujing, Yuxu and Yuhua. In previous years, when catching up with the big ceremony, the emperor would also make one or two trips to Taiqingguan.

Therefore, he has walked many times on the way back to the city.

From Taiqingguan to Yingdu Palace, you have to go down the mountain first, and then you have to go through a long path, and then you can turn to the wide official road.

The original team also had to change its formation and become more slender.

It's late spring and early summer, and the jungles on both sides of the road are just right and lush.

The mountain road was silent, except for the sound of cars and horses and the occasional birdsong or two from time to time in the mountains.

The forbidden guards guarding the surroundings of the Holy Driver looked at the surrounding scenery boredly. On this road, they have also walked a lot, at the foot of Yuhua Peak, near the official road, and there is no cowardice to make trouble.

At that moment, there was a sudden explosion, and then the horse was seen to raise its head to the sky and neigh, and it was about to run forward.

The squire who was driving changed his expression greatly, and hurriedly pulled the reins tightly, so that the runaway horse was temporarily restrained and did not cause a catastrophe.

Gunpowder was buried somewhere under his feet, and explosions began one after another, and the crowd suddenly panicked and shouted.

"There are assassins! Protect the saints! Zhong Chi, the leader of the forbidden army, let out a loud shout, pulled out the long sword at his waist, and looked around vigilantly.

"Whoosh", there was a sound of breaking the air from the forest, and the forbidden army hurriedly raised their swords to block it, but many of the forbidden army's followers who could not react fell to the ground.

Zhong Chi, the leader of the forbidden army, hurriedly escorted people to the emperor's car: "Don't worry, saints. ”

His eyes narrowed slightly, and he saw a group of masked killers popping out of the forest, heading straight for the emperor's car.

The mountain road was long and narrow, and the front and back were disturbed by the sudden explosion of gunpowder, and they could not get close to escort for a while, and there were so many assassins on both sides, even if the emperor traveled with a lot of people, he was quite a little weak at the moment.

Seeing that the assassin was about to break through the defenses and touch the emperor's car, Zhong Chi's eyes shrank suddenly, and before he could pay attention to the sword that was being swung at him, he used all his strength to leap forward and behead the man under the sword.

He exhaled, only to find that he had a sharp pain in his back, it turned out that he had just been inadvertently injured by the assassin behind him, and it was thanks to the forbidden army beside him to help him stop him, so that he could save his life.

Zhong Chi turned around, lifted the bloody sword, and shouted loudly: "Protect the holy car!" ”

This place is getting farther and farther away from Taiqingguan, and there is still some distance from the official road, so this group of people must have deliberately chosen this place to ambush.

However, he just released the arrow, and the assassination of the saint was such a big move, and Taiqingguan could have arrived quickly.

For now, just protect the car.

There were many of them, and even if the other party had the advantage of the terrain, it was difficult for them to get close to the emperor's car for a while.

Seeing that the assassins were falling one by one, and everyone who had rushed from Xuanqingguan was about to arrive in front of him, the person who took the lead snorted coldly and said loudly: "Dusk Jun, don't think that no one knows the truth about the palace more than ten years ago!" If you don't get the right position, you won't be able to do it for a long time! ”

When he spoke, he deliberately used internal breath, and this word resounded in the forest and mountain roads, and the loud and unusually loud was that everyone who came to the rescue couldn't help but be stunned when they heard it.

While driving, the emperor's face trembled suddenly, and a shocking cold light burst out in his eyes.

"Withdraw!" With a wave of his hand, the masked assassins retreated to the dense forest on both sides.

Seeing this, Zhong Chi immediately ordered some of the forbidden troops to catch up with him, and the other part to accompany him around the car to escort him.

The assassins dispersed, but the mountain path did not return to its previous calm, Zhong Chi stood beside the holy car, but his hand holding the sword couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Fang Cai, is the assassin talking about the truth of the palace change more than ten years ago?

Misplaced......

He couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and quietly lifted his eyelids to look at the car, but there was no movement inside.

This assassination seems to be related to the old events of more than ten years ago, but if you don't get it right, it's another bloody storm......

Yuan Buxi and Xuanyuan, who came to the rescue, took a look at the tragic situation around them, the two glanced at each other, and then walked to the car and bowed down to ask for guilt: "The saint forgives the sins, the ministers are too late to save the driver." ”

"No problem." The attendant lifted the curtain of the car, revealing the unfazed face of the emperor inside.

He swept the surrounding scene, glanced at Xiao Lingjiang who was behind Yuan Buxi without a trace, and said lightly: "Go back to the palace." ”

On the way back to the palace, they actually encountered an assassin, and Yuan Buxi and the others naturally did not dare to be careless, and they all followed the forbidden army to escort the emperor back to the palace, and then left separately.

When the emperor entered the palace, he waved away the people around him, and after a long time, he ordered in a deep voice: "Come here, go and call Chen Nie and Zhong Chi." ”

Today's assassination is not necessarily accidental.

The words of the leading assassin pierced him in the heart.

It stands to reason that he has already handled the matter of the year, and no one else in the world should know about it, but he is not afraid of 10,000 in case.

And what is the origin of this group of people today? Is it the descendant of the rebel king of the year, or...... Or even the retinue of the deceased Prince Yiwen?

The origin of this group of assassins must be clearly investigated, and none of them must be left behind!

His eyes narrowed slightly, and the words of the assassin must have reached the ears of those present today. They don't say it, but they don't doubt it in their hearts.

The emperor snorted coldly, he really didn't interfere in the affairs of the year, and he was even more confident that he had not left any evidence. The Assassin was nothing more than a traitor who wanted to make trouble.

How did he order Chen Nie and Zhong Chi to act without mentioning it, Xiao Lingjiang returned to Yingdu but did not return to the house immediately, but turned around and went to He's house.

He Xiangshan was not on a bad day today, and he couldn't help but be happy when he heard that she came, and hurriedly asked someone to invite her in.

"How? Today's competition, but Da Zhou won? ”

Xiao Lingjiang nodded, but there was no joy on his face, and when he saw that He Xiangshan was puzzled, he said the matter in a deep voice.

What the assassin said today, she could hear it clearly, was there something else hidden in the palace change more than ten years ago?

If there were, what the assassin said, it really put her and the He family on the cusp of the storm again.
