While the capital was still immersed in the silence of the curfew, the manpower arranged by Ling Yi had already begun to act quietly.

The first thing to do was the arsonist team, they were divided into three routes, all the way to the vicinity of Buguangli and Yong'anli, where dignitaries and nobles lived, and lit the first fire; the second way is to pounce on Deguangli and Jingliangli, where the poor people live, and set fires; The last way is to the vicinity of the Tingwei Mansion.

The main thing is to be fair and impartial, not only to mobilize the defenders in the city, but also to confuse the sight, disrupt the situation, and create opportunities for the assassins who attack.

And in fact, just as Ling Yi had expected, as the fires in these three places ignited, the entire capital was shaken.

Among them, of course, it also includes the Tingwei Mansion, when the fire next to it just started, the people of the Tingwei Mansion planned to go out to put out the fire.

After all, although the fire has not yet burned in, it is not far away after all, and if it is not extinguished as soon as possible, it will always be more dangerous.

After Ling Budo came out, he immediately stopped them with a speech, and ordered, "Everyone is not allowed to go out in their own duties, and there are naturally people to deal with things outside, so you don't need to worry about it."

Hearing Ling Budo's scolding, the originally flustered people of the Tingwei Mansion gradually settled down, and then Ling Budo called Yuan Shen and asked him to preside over the affairs of the Tingwei Mansion.

And he took people directly to the place where Peng Kun was, after all, today's fire was too strange, and Ling Budo felt that nine times out of ten it was aimed at Peng Kun.

Without knowing how much the other party knows, it is also a helpless move to go over and stare at it in person.

As for the fire outside, Ling Budo just asked Liang Qiu to go and notify the forbidden army in the city and let them come to put out the fire.

When Ling Budo arrived, Peng Kun was still quiet here, so far Ling Budo was a lot more relieved after all, but in order to ensure that nothing went wrong.

So Ling Budo found the masters arranged by Li Hao, and since those people came in, except for some of them who personally protected Yuan Shen, the rest were placed by Ling Budo to Peng Kun.

Ling Bu asked, "During the time when there was a fire outside just now, was there anything unusual here?"

The person replied, "There was nothing abnormal just now, but General Ling is here, and the follow-up troubles are only indispensable, in fact, General Ling should not come."

Ling Budo can naturally figure this out, but now that things have reached a critical moment, Ling Budo really can't feel at ease if he doesn't come.

It was useless to talk about it now, so Ling Budo didn't explain, but just replied, "Then prepare, there will be an assassin who may come later."

Just when Ling Budo was perfecting the arrangement here, the assassins sent by Ling Yi had also begun to act, because they had already monitored Ling Budo's movements from a high place outside the mansion.

Originally, the Assassins hoped that they could use this fire to transfer some of the black-armored guards guarding outside the Imperial Palace, so that they could infiltrate.

Unexpectedly, Ling Budo's sense was extremely keen, and he didn't mobilize the black-armored guards to fight the fire, so he could only let a small number of people deliberately expose their flaws, causing the nearby black-armored guards to besiege him.

As a result, some loopholes were artificially created, so that others could sneak in smoothly and sneak all the way to the courtyard where Peng Kun was.

As a result, as soon as they were halfway there, they happened to meet Yuan Shen who was coming in this direction, and at that moment these assassins hid in the shadows, wanting to let Yuan Shen and them go first.

However, when Yuan Shen approached, a person suddenly jumped out of the group of assassins, and attacked Yuan Shen with a dart.

This time completely confused both sides, fortunately, the person sent by Li Hao was alert, and when this person came out, he noticed that something was wrong, and directly pulled Yuan Shen to the side to avoid it, and shouted to remind the others.

Therefore, this dart was shot in the air, not causing harm to Yuan Shen, but completely exposing the group of assassins.

At that moment, the Yuan family behind Yuan Shen and the officials of the Tingwei Mansion all drew their swords and directly surrounded the assassins.

As for Yuan Shen himself, he also pulled out his portable sword and greeted him under Yuan Wo's guidance.

Speaking of Yuan Shen's martial arts, he is actually quite good, although he is relatively inferior to Li Haolai, but he is not one to be idle

Ordinary people can get close.

After all, in order to avoid being beaten by Li Hao under the pretext of learning, he also took a lot of effort to practice martial arts.

Naturally, the assassin would not sit idly by, and since he was exposed, he also drew his weapon and killed him.

However, their ultimate goal was Peng Kun, so they didn't entangle with Yuan Shen and them too much, and after a fight, they cut down a few officials from the Tingwei Mansion, opened the passage, and killed them directly.

Only the person who jumped out at the beginning still insisted on attacking Yuan Shen, but this person's martial arts skills were extremely high, and his ability to break swords and open steles and crack stones in one hand stopped the person by force.

Of course, the main reason for this is because the Yuan family recognized who this person was, so they did not directly kill him.

And the errand officer of the Tingwei Mansion is not very good at his own military value, and there is nothing he can do about this person.

At this time, Yuan Wo had already walked to Yuan Shen's side and said, "What should we do now, the master won't let us attack the fifth cheng, after the second son was seriously injured, he wanted to trouble him, and he was stopped by the master at that time.

But in this situation, if he is not taken down earlier, I am afraid that it will be difficult to explain to General Ling at that time."

Yuan Shen also knew the rights and wrongs of Wucheng and his own family, although it was a fact that his grandfather had killed his sister, but at that time he also paid it back with his own life.

Then Wucheng almost lost his life for Li Hao, who had been killed several times by his family, and even harmed him twice, so Yuan Shen had long lost patience with him.

Especially in the current situation, if he is not killed directly, with his understanding of Yuan Pei, I am afraid that Yuan Pei will continue to clean up his hands and tails in the future, and then the entire Yuan family will be dragged down by it.

Therefore, he commanded, "Kill, he didn't reveal his identity today anyway, so you and I should not know who he is beforehand."

As for the future if Father is to blame, I will naturally bear it, and you will not be implicated."

Yuan Wo has murderous intentions for the fifth cost, after all, Li Hao, who he has been following, regards Li Hao's benefactor, and he is also a person who has experienced the danger in Hanzhong at the beginning, and knows how dangerous Li Hao was at that time.

It's just that in front of Yuan Shen, there are some things he can't make up his own mind, and now with Yuan Shen's acquiescence, he immediately ordered: "Open the passage as soon as possible, life or death doesn't matter."

Hearing this, those Yuan family tribes who were still entangled with the fifth Cheng just now immediately attacked a little more fiercely.

Caught off guard, Wucheng immediately had a lot of wounds on his body, and it became more and more difficult to resist.

Seeing this situation, Wucheng also had the intention of retreating, after all, he couldn't do anything, he still wanted to save his life and continue to kill the Yuan family.

It's just that Yuan Shen would easily let go of this scourge, and immediately stepped up the offensive to prevent the fifth Cheng from escaping.

Seeing that he would soon be able to confer the fifth Cheng as the head, a group of people suddenly rushed out, disrupting the formation of the Yuan family's troops, and saving the fifth Cheng's life.

Seeing this, Yuan Shen frowned, not understanding why these people had already rushed over just now, and why they retreated so quickly.

Just when Yuan Shen was puzzled by this, Ling Budo had already led someone to chase after him from behind, and when he saw this equipment, Yuan Shen understood.

Not to mention the fully armed armor, with only a few dozen bows and arrows in their hands, it is not something that ordinary people can carry.

Originally, if these assassins could get close to each other secretly, when it came time to fight in close quarters, their martial arts would be effective.

But who let them expose their tracks before, and then as soon as they appeared, they were stared at by dozens of bows and arrows, in this case, the assassins without armor couldn't even get close, and they were directly driven away by several rounds of bows and arrows, after all, they were just assassins, and they were not dead soldiers who had been raised.

Now that the archers have arrived, Yuan Shen let his own troops retreat to give the archers a space to play.

But the Assassins weren't stupid, so they wouldn't let them quit like that, so they started fighting.

But obviously, Ling Budo didn't plan to rely only on archers to get things done, and when it came to hand-to-hand combat, he was also confident that he would not lose to others.

Let the archers be there right now

After pressing the formation, he led people to pounce on him, wanting to work together to destroy this group of assassins.

With the joint efforts of the two sides, the group of assassins immediately began to suffer casualties, but because the cooperation between the two sides was not so tacit after all, several loopholes were created.

was seized by several assassins with strong martial arts and took the opportunity to escape, including Yuan Shenxin's fifth percent.

At that moment, Yuan Shen wanted to send someone to pursue along the road, but was stopped by Ling Budo, and said, "Now Peng Kun is the most important, these people are just little minions, even if they escape, they won't be able to make any waves.

When we let the forbidden army chase after us, we will continue to take care of the safety of the Tingwei Mansion, anyway, when Peng Kun tells what he is behind the scenes, we can wipe them out."

When Yuan Shen heard this, he couldn't say anything, after all, he couldn't tell Ling Budo about his grievances.

However, in order to prevent accidents, Yuan Shen still asked Yuan Wo to pass the matter of the fifth percent back to the Yuan Mansion when he was inspecting the safety of the Tingwei Mansion, and asked Li Hao to find a way to dispose of the fifth percent.

When Li Hao learned the news, it was already early the next morning, and he was really speechless, he really didn't expect that Wucheng would also be implicated in this matter.

But accident is accident, on the issue of the disposal of the fifth percent, Li Hao's opinion is the same as Yuan Shanjian's, that is, if you can get rid of this guy, get rid of this guy as soon as possible.

At that moment, Li Hao asked people to attract people who were staring at the Chengyang Hou Mansion and asked Ling Yiming if there was any movement of people in the various mansions in the dark.

Li Hao was disappointed by the answer, because according to their observations, there was no movement of people last night.

It proves that Ling Yi is really hiding this guy, and he still has the mansion that Li Hao didn't find to be their lair.

However, Li Hao was not discouraged, after all, with such a big movement last night, there would definitely be no fewer people staring at the situation outside.

In this case, Li Hao didn't believe that they could hide their tracks so secretly, especially under Li Hao's open-minded and large-scale investigation.

After leaving the house, Li Hao rushed to the East Palace as soon as possible, planning to get the task of finding these fish that slipped through the net, anyway, he was originally one of the interrogators of this eucalyptus.

In the case that Ling Budo has no time to track down, it is also very logical to take over the task and do it.

When Li Hao arrived, the prince was also anxious to deal with official business, after all, the three fires yesterday, Buguangli, Yong'anli and the surrounding areas of Tingwei's Mansion were fine, and at the first time of the fire, the servants of the wealthy family who lived there came forward to control it, and then with the help of the forbidden army who rushed over, they were quickly extinguished.

The only thing is Deguangli and Jingliangli, which are inhabited by poor people, which are places with messy houses and complex crowds, and the forbidden army is not very concerned about them, so they arrived at the scene at the latest.

And in the process, many people with ill intentions took advantage of the chaos to do evil, which further contributed to the chaos there.

By the time the fire was finally extinguished, the sky had turned white, that is, it had burned all night, and almost all the houses there had been burned.

After that, when it came to the matter of Anmin, Luo Yang Ling couldn't make the decision, so he reported to the prince and asked him to preside over the matter.

The prince was already kind in his heart, and it was naturally uncomfortable to see so many people affected by the disaster, and when it came to disaster relief, it would take a lot of money and food.

Although the imperial court has not encountered any major disasters in recent years, in fact, the treasury is not so rich.

After all, the Battle of Pingshu and the Battle of Longxi were two or three years ago, and then in the past two years, there were two battles in Fengyi County and Shouchun, and tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses went out to fight, and the money and food spent were not small.

Therefore, the prince was also having a headache about where to get the money and food, and happened to see Li Hao arrive, so he asked Li Hao to help give an idea.

Li Hao did not refuse, and replied directly: "Although the money and food spent on this disaster relief are a lot, there are more rich people in the capital, why don't Your Highness find a way to let these people spit out, and you will be able to deal with it."

Hearing this, the prince heard this and said, "Disaster relief is the duty of the court, how can they be willing to take money and food out to make up for it

Loopholes in the imperial court.

You can't let me sell the official mantle, that lonely must not be scolded to death by my father, and my father will not agree."

Li Hao explained: "Naturally, you can't do it by selling your official beard, but it's always right to lure you by lure, Your Highness might as well change your thinking.

Fame and fortune, fame and fortune, since the two are inseparable, His Royal Highness can't give others official titles, but isn't it easy to help them become famous?

Your Highness thinks about why this country gentry always likes to donate money and food to build bridges and pave roads, and this is an important reason why it is convenient to become famous.

Then, since they need it, don't the princes and families in this capital need it?"

Hearing this, the prince slapped his face and said, "Yes, this is a good idea, but this matter can't be said by Lone, otherwise it won't be a business."

After speaking, he looked at Li Hao, obviously hitting Li Hao directly.

Li Hao didn't intend to refuse, and said at the moment: "Your Highness, rest assured, this kind of good deeds will naturally take the lead, and then ask Your Highness to give the minister a good plaque, and then the minister will let the general of the chariot and cavalry go through the process, and if you want to come to other families, you will naturally understand the meaning, and you will follow for the sake of your own reputation."

These people know how to make trade-offs when they donate."

The two sides reached a consensus on this, and then Li Hao proposed to arrest the assassins.
