Chapter 186: Deadend

"Bang!"

There was an abrupt muffled thud that roared through the dimly lit alley.

A strong palm wind suddenly smashed the carriage where Shen Guogong was.

The planks scattered in all directions, and after the smoke and dust gradually fell, Shen Guogong's figure slowly appeared.

He put his hands on his knees and squinted slightly, looking in the direction where the palm wind was coming from.

"Since you're here, why don't you show up?"

Shen Guogong said calmly, but several Praetorian Guards did not dare to be calm.

They didn't see the assassin's shadow, their first reaction was a play written and directed by Shen Guogong, everyone immediately set off, surrounded the carriage, and pointed the tip of the sword directly at Shen Guogong.

"Grandpa Guo, it is not advisable to stay here for a long time, since there are assassins, Grandpa Guo should enter the palace as soon as possible, right?"

The corners of Shen Guogong's lips lifted lightly, and he said sarcastically: "Stupid child, I can't even recognize the direction of the assassin, how can I protect His Majesty's safety in the palace?" ”

"Not wiser than Grandpa Guo." The person at the head has already received a secret order, and now Shen Guogong enters the palace, it will be a dead end.

He couldn't help but mock in his words, "After entering the palace, Grandpa Guo will know the skills of the Praetorian Guard." ”

As soon as the words fell, another sound of breaking wind came from behind him.

Several Praetorian Guards turned back at the same time, but they didn't want to make a move.

At the moment when several people turned around, several black shadows came from the front, and one of them was murderous, and the spear in his hand went straight to Shen Guogong's door.

"Shen Zhengtian, today is your death day, I want to avenge General Murong who died unjustly!"

Shen Guogong quickly grabbed the wooden plank at his feet, resisted it in front of him, and sneered: "Lin Xian! In whose hands did General Murong die, you and I know very well, why bother looking for such a high-sounding reason? ”

"Bang!"

Planks collided with spears, sparks stirring up in the twilight.

The rest of the men in black also entered the ranks of the Praetorian Guard in an instant.

Although Lin Xian was dressed in black and masked, he and Shen Guogong had not seen each other for more than ten years.

But no matter the shape or figure, and the hostility towards him on his body, Shen Guogong immediately recognized Lin Xian's identity.

He glanced at the battle circle around him, the Praetorian Guard was obviously no match for the man in black.

Frowning, Lin Xian on the other side suddenly attacked, Shen Guogong's eyes froze, and he immediately made a decision.

Lin Xian's ambush was also an excellent opportunity for him.

If he enters the palace tonight, he will surely die.

But escaping Lin Xian's assassination, there may be a glimmer of life!

Picking up the plank at hand, Shen Guogong smashed it at Lin Xian regardless of it, and when he was defending, he jumped out of the carriage and fled into the dark alley.

Lin Xian immediately chased after him, but when he came to the fork, he didn't see Shen Guogong at all.

Lin Xian angrily poked the ground with the spear in his hand, and reluctantly chose the alley on the left and walked in.

The section of the road in the east of the city is very familiar to Shen Guogong.

He hid in a blind corner of the wall, quietly watching Lin Xian leave in a hurry before slowly reappearing.

The footsteps did not stop, and quickly rushed in the direction of the Guogong Mansion.

Seeing that if you go around an alley again, you will reach the side gate of the Guogong Mansion.

Shen Guogong breathed a sigh of relief and sped up his speed even more.

But he hadn't taken a few steps when a white figure suddenly appeared in his sight.

The white clothes are better than the snow, and the end is the scenery and the moon.

He stood carelessly in the middle of the alley, twisted his fingers and chuckled: "Shen Guogong, where are you going in a hurry?" ”

"Jiang Huaiyin!" Shen Guogong's pupils shrank sharply, and he suddenly figured it out, "It's you?" Is it Lin Xian you found? Did you spread the truth of the year to the streets and alleys of the capital? ”

Jiang Huaiyin smiled and slowly raised his eyes, under the moonlight, his fair face was still so handsome.

"The gift to Shen Guogong, are you still satisfied?"

The black mole on the wing of his nose had disappeared, and Shen Guogong smiled bitterly in hindsight, "It turns out that your poison has already been resolved, it turns out that you have been deceiving me and waiting!" ”

Jiang Huaiyin was noncommittal, "It turned out to be the handiwork of Grandpa Guo, for the health of this king, Grandpa Guo really took great pains!" ”

"Jiang Huaiyin!" Shen Guogong's eyes were red, and he scolded angrily.

Jiang Huaiyin was unmoved, and said contemptuously:

"Tsk, this king thought that Grandpa Guo was a person who dared to act, but he didn't expect that he was so shameless that he still didn't know the crimes he committed."

"Crime?" Shen Guogong laughed, gritted his teeth and said to Jiang Huaiyin: "The old man is dedicated to the country, and from the perspective of the imperial court, General Murong has to die!" A general who can shake the authority of the royal family, let me ask the prince, if you sit on the dragon chair, will you continue to let such a person hold the military power? ”

Jiang Huaiyin: "There is no suspicion in employing people, and there is no need for suspicious people." In terms of power, how much does the military power in the hands of your Shen family lack compared to General Murong back then? Didn't Grandpa Guo think that by dispersing the military power, he would be able to confuse the public, right? ”

"Since you know everything, why don't you kill the old man?"

In the hands of Lin Xian, there was still room to escape, and it was Jiang Huaiyin who stood in front of him, and Shen Guogong had already given up.

"Because the border really needs brave and resourceful people like General Murong. You Shen Guogong is not one of them, but the three Erlang of the Shen family have the style of a general. This king will not kill you, and has been conniving at the Shen family, for the sake of border stability and for the dawn of the people. It's ridiculous that you are so conceited that you still dare to be a relative of the Son of Heaven, and want to be the next regent like this king? ”

"Why not?" Shen Guogong looked angry, opened his hands and looked up at the sky, "The queen belongs to the Shen family, and the sister-in-law belongs to the Shen family." Jiang Huaiyin, if it weren't for you, the eldest prince would have settled in the East Palace a long time ago, and the next queen would definitely be my son and virtue! At that time, the country will be the country of my Shen family! ”

Jiang Huaiyin looked at him indescribably, as if he was looking at a fool.

"But you forget, what the country needs is never relatives, and it is not the officials and ministers who maintain a country's strength, but the people! When the people are rich, the country is strong, your interests are consumed, in essence, you and General Murong are the difference between Yunni! ”

"Enough!"

Shen Guogong and General Murong went out together, and they were often compared by others since they were young.

General Murong has repeatedly made military exploits, but Shen Guogong has to rely on hereditary repudiation to take over the exploits left by his ancestors-

Now he has to be ruthlessly exposed by a junior.

Shen Guogong was angry, "If you want to kill or chop, the old man will follow, why pull out a dead person as an excuse?" ”

"Excuses?" Jiang Huaiyin opened his long legs and walked towards Shen Guogong step by step, "The excuse can't be called, but with your neck, this king can have the face to worship his father-in-law." ”

Shen Guogong raised his eyebrows and laughed: "Jiang Huaiyin, Jiang Huaiyin, knowing the son Mo Ruo's mother, the queen mother's foresight and foresight are now truly admired!" ”

While speaking, Jiang Huaiyin had already walked in front of him, Shen Guogong took the initiative to approach him, and said with a cruel smile: "The old man sold you a favor before he died, in fact, the real mastermind of the fire of the General's Mansion is the Queen Mother, it is the Queen Mother!" If you are really sincere, why don't you even take the life of the Queen Mother with you? ”

"Poof!"

Jiang Huaiyin lowered his eyes and had a cold face, the long sword in his hand had already stabbed into Shen Guogong's chest, and the cold blade passed through his body.

"The rest, don't bother with Grandpa Guo."
