Chapter 254: Whistleblowing
The last point is that Xianghua only knew, King Zhongshun also had a private army, which was trained by a person named Sha Peng on weekdays, and the scale had reached 30,000 people, and all of them were elite, and the shape had even surpassed the emperor's imperial army.
No wonder the King of Zhongshun is rampant like that, whoever has such an armed force in private will want to walk sideways.
Xianghua asked the girl to copy all these notes, and then sealed them back as they were, and sent the pigeons to deliver a letter to the king of Zhongshun as soon as possible, and then returned to the palace all the way back to the palace with trepidation.
That day, Zhao Tao said that according to the clues she gave, he had found some evidence, but he still lacked the most favorable evidence, so it was not appropriate to make a statement. Judging from the current situation, even if Zhao Tao has found ironclad evidence, he can't take it out at this time. If Wei Qi is forced to rush and he really raises troops to rebel, the emperor and Lord Zhu may not be able to support it for long.
Xianghua thought about this matter sooner rather than later, and she had to let Zhao Tao know as soon as possible, so that the two could discuss the rest of the matter together.
After she entered the house and closed the door, a figure appeared from the corner, it was Wang Chaoyi, who was biting her handkerchief and sneering.
At dinner in the morning, Xianghua gave Zhao Tao a note under the table and asked him to meet in Xiangmanlou in the afternoon.
Zhao Tao took it without changing his face, and the others didn't notice it, only Wang Chaoyi bit the chopsticks and seemed to smile. Xianghua Suri was used to seeing her yin and yang weirdness, and she didn't pay too much attention to it.
After noon, Zhao Tao rushed over and asked Xianghua when it was so important.
Xianghua showed him a few notes copied last night, and Zhao Tao's face changed drastically when he saw it.
He carefully read it several times before he said, "It turns out that this dragon has grown horns." ”
Xianghua said: "This matter must be known to the emperor and General Zhao as soon as possible, so that we can make a response as soon as possible." ”
Zhao Tao nodded: "This matter is not trivial, I will arrange the delivery of the letter." Xianghua, it's really a great achievement for you to find out such an opportunity, but don't get too involved in the rest of the matter, you must pay attention to your own safety. ”
Xianghua also responded seriously and said, "I also want to write a letter to Taro and tell him about it, what do you think?" ”
Zhao Tao smiled: "It's okay, it's just that it's important to send the letter, don't be robbed halfway like these pigeons." ”
Xianghua smiled: "I have my own plans for this, Lord Zhao can rest assured." ”
The two discussed, Zhao Tao left first, Xianghua was still in the Xiangmanlou, and Wang Chaoyi sat in the carriage and could see it clearly.
After a while, Xiao Er, who was bribed by her heavy money, came over and told Wang Chaoyi about the conversation between Xianghua and Zhao Tao that she heard at the door.
Wang Chaoyi smiled proudly when she heard this: Cheng Xianghua, you can't turn over this time!
Xianghua agreed with one of the pigeons of the king of Zhongshun that day, and she asked it to send a letter, and the specific address was explained by Yuanbao to it.
No sooner had she finished writing the letter than the pigeon fluttered and cooed, cooing for the grain.
Xianghua packed the letter paper in a small bamboo tube, and gave the pigeon a handful of good rice soaked in the aura of the phoenix gem, and told it to deliver the letter, and the pigeon cooed, and set off after eating the last grain of rice.
She was packing up the things to feed the pigeons, hiding the pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., when she heard a commotion downstairs, and Yuanbao's half-squinted eyes also opened.
"Meow!" It's not good, the people who defend it are coming!
How could the people of Wei Qi suddenly come to the incense building, could it be-
Xianghua was shocked, and the ten shadow guards sent to her by the emperor also appeared, they were all carefully selected by the emperor and could be trusted.
One of them was the first to say: "Girl Xianghua, the king of loyalty is menacing, and I am afraid it is not a good thing." You and the others get out of the window first, and I'll stand back here for a while. ”
The situation was critical, and Xianghua only had time to tell "be careful", so she was picked up by a person and jumped out of the window. At the same time, the door of the room had been opened, and a large group of soldiers with strong and stubborn clothes broke in, led by Wang Rong!
"Give it to me!"
At his command, the soldiers and the shadow guards met each other!
Xianghua was carried by the fastest shadow guard, only to feel the wind whirring in her ears, and there was a shout of killing in the building behind her.
What went wrong?
How could King Zhongshun suddenly know?
How is Zhao Tao now?
Even she was hunted down, would Zhao Tao already-
The more Xianghua thought about it, the more she felt that her hands and feet were cold, but then she calmed down and comforted herself. No matter how Zhao Tao says, he is also the eldest son of Zhao Wu, the general of Zhenguo, and King Zhongshun has always had the intention to win over Zhao Wu, but Zhao Wu never agreed, and King Zhongshun will save Zhao Tao's life even if he sees Zhao Wu's face.
Thinking of this, Xianghua felt a little comforted in her heart, and asked Yingwei, "Where are we going now?" ”
A shadow guard said: "The king of Zhongshun has become suspicious, and Penn is no longer safe." According to the emperor's orders, I will escort the girl to the place where the princess is. ”
Xianghua nodded, "I know a shortcut, I can get to the dock quickly." Turn right next to the pawnshop in front! ”
The shadow guard listened to her command, and walked like a fly. The only thing Xianghua can be thankful about now is that her letter to Taro has been delivered.
However, before they could turn into the alley, one of the shadow guards suddenly stopped, turned around and split a sharp arrow that was shooting at them.
Xianghua also took a look. Standing at the top of the roof was a handsome man dressed in a dark robe, with a big bow on his back, and his eyebrows and eyes were as sharp as an eagle's falcon.
The rest of the shadow guards also drew their swords and placed martial law around, and there were already three assassins standing on the rooftops on each side of the alley, and two people standing in front of them.
They were like dumplings.
Night Stalker.
Xianghua's heart sank, she remembered seeing the name of the Assassin leader in those secret letters.
The night owl said coldly: "I will be ordered by the king to bring the fragrant flower girl back." ”
Xianghua asked Yuanbao to hide to the side, while secretly summoning the birds around here, and said with a smile: "I have lived in Pennsylvania for many days, it's time to go and see the princess, this is the emperor's order, is there any objection to the loyal king?" ”
The night owl is not good at lawsuits, so he frowned and said, "I don't know the emperor's order, and I ask the girl not to be embarrassed." For the rest of the words, please tell the prince after the girl goes back. ”
Xianghua suddenly asked, "What about His Royal Highness?" ”
She didn't see Long Wu, and she didn't know if Wei Qi was deliberately hiding it from Wei Ping, or if Long Wu was sent to do something else.
"I don't know."
Xianghua saw that he was stunned, so she could only delay the time without words: "The prince can tell me why he asked me to go back." ”
"The prince said that the girl Bingxue is smart, so she naturally knows it."
"Where's Lord Zhao?"
A faint smile appeared on the night owl's face, and he said neatly, "Please go back and rest." ”
Xianghua realized that King Zhongshun was not only ruthless, but also so resolute, so she asked: "Thank you for the prince's kindness, but I miss the princess, so I won't go back." ”
