Chapter 351: The Female Assassin Returns
The appearance of the nine princesses of the royal family instantly frightened the state soldiers and government soldiers outside the city, and they all knelt down and bowed.
Although Jiaozhou is highly autonomous, it is nominally under the jurisdiction of Daliang, and there are at least three levels of official appointments in the territory: the state pastor, the county warden, and the county commander, and there are six counties of territory.
Although it is remote, it does not mean that it can be lawless, if it is said that the fierce battle with the Dongshan army, they still have a rhetoric, in order to protect the safety of the county.
But the nine princesses of the royal family appeared, and the state soldiers did not resist at all, just kidding, dare to offend His Royal Highness the Nine? It's not pure death.
Like the people who agitated and shouted in the government soldiers just now, they have already set an example for them.
The state soldiers are okay, it seems that the ninth princess did not blame them for their neglect.
On the contrary, the soldiers who kept kowtowing and begging for mercy on the side were as earth-colored as they were shaking like chaff.
Everyone is scared, before among them, there was such a scum, and they dared to question offending the nine princesses, as companions, can they still have good?
If the nine princesses are dissatisfied and kill them all, I am afraid that the state pastor will not dare to say a word.
The state soldiers who led the way swept their eyes to the government soldiers who kept kowtowing and begging for mercy, and sighed a little in their hearts.
Fortunately, they are not as stupid as these people, and now that they have offended His Royal Highness the Nine, they can only ask for more blessings.
The state soldiers will definitely not intercede for these people at this time, this is His Royal Highness the Nine, they are not stupid enough to think that they have such great ability, let His Highness the Nine give them a face.
The carriage slowly drove into the county town, and at the gate of the county town that was about to disappear, a black-robed man behind him shouted loudly.
"His Royal Highness Chuanjiu ordered that all the soldiers of the county city be taken down, and they will be detained for the time being, and the decision will be made when the matter of the county town is settled."
This was not said to the Long Wei around him, but to the state soldiers who escorted him into the city.
The state soldiers did not hesitate, and immediately took action to take down all the soldiers of the county and the city.
It was relatively smooth to take down this group of government soldiers, mainly because the government soldiers did not resist, and if they resisted, it would be a little troublesome to clean them up.
There are some delicate people among the state soldiers, and they can probably guess the reason why His Royal Highness the Ninth has not killed all the government soldiers.
Now there are more than 1,000 soldiers gathered in the county town, which is not a small number.
If you really kill them all, it will have some bad effects on the royal family, saying that His Royal Highness the Ninth is cruel and murderous.
Second, these government soldiers are soldiers who maintain law and order in the county town, and they are the regular army of Daliang, and they eat the imperial grain.
It is difficult not to disturb the soldiers of the other six counties by killing them.
The chaos in Qingcheng County has not yet been calmed down, and in order to stabilize the situation, it is not intended to be killed.
If they are put into custody, they will still be given a chance to save their lives, and since they have this opportunity, these government soldiers will definitely not risk resisting, adding to the crime.
Their thoughts are probably fifty or sixty percent, but the real idea of the ninth princess is that when the chaos in Qingcheng County is calmed down, not only the county government soldiers, but the entire county government soldiers, will have to come to a big purge.
After so many years of rule in Qingcheng County, the mentality of these government soldiers is afraid that it will be rotten long ago.
When the time comes, we will turn around and directly divide and disintegrate, interrogate, and strengthen ideological education for those who have committed serious crimes, those who should be killed, and those who have committed minor crimes.
The original generals and officers at all levels have all been replaced.
These are the rules and regulations formulated by Su Qi'an that she saw before she traveled around Tucheng County, which gave her some inspiration.
These are all later words, and the most urgent thing in the ninth princess's heart now is Su Qi'an's safety.
This Su Qi'an was too bold, didn't greet her, and rushed to the county seat with people openly.
Now it's okay, it's self-defeating, let yourself go into danger, and in the end she has to take action.
"Su Qi'an waited for this princess to rescue you, and she is settling this account with you without saying hello." The ninth princess sat in the carriage and muttered.
After confirming the identity of the ninth princess, the state soldiers who took the lead had already sent people to the city to report as soon as possible.
Everywhere along the way, all the state soldiers, all
Standing on both sides, half-kneeling on the ground, the sight was spectacular from afar.
The news of His Royal Highness Ninth entering the city came, and the battle at the gate of the county guard in the city was quickly controlled by the state soldiers.
There were still casualties between the guard company and the government soldiers, but they were not large, and there were only twenty or thirty casualties.
The men and horses on both sides were blocked by the state soldiers on both sides of the gate of the county government, and with the arrival of His Royal Highness the Nine, the dragon guard led by the dragon guard gave an order and signaled for release.
Without the state soldiers to stop him, the commander of the guard company immediately rushed over, half-knelt on the ground in front of the carriage, and hurriedly said.
"Please also ask Your Highness to save my Hou Ye, the so-called coordination of the county government is a bureau, in order to lure the Hou Ye to come and shoot him, there was an explosion in the county just now, we were blocked, I don't know what the situation is, please call the shots."
The ninth princess sitting in the carriage hummed softly and motioned to lead the way into the mansion.
And the controlled government soldiers, suddenly***, directly broke through the state soldiers' blockade, and went straight to the ninth princess in the carriage.
The boldness of the government soldiers surprised the state soldiers, they ate the bear's heart and leopard guts, and dared to attack His Royal Highness.
Even if these people are the personal guards of Qingcheng County, they are also Daliang soldiers in the first place.
Attacking the royal family, it is looking for death.
The state soldiers reacted quickly, wanting to stop it, if something really happened to His Royal Highness Nine in their hands, they would not be able to cut off a few heads.
The state soldiers reacted quickly, but the dragon guards who protected them were even faster.
There was no need to give an order at all, and under the stunned gaze of the state soldiers, about twenty or thirty government soldiers rushed out to escort them, and it took less than half a stick of incense. ap.
These people were dealt with cleanly by more than a dozen dragon guards.
Everyone's eyes widened, and even the follow-up soldiers who were about to make a move were stunned.
These black-clothed people, with their bare hands just now, directly killed all the twenty or so people who rushed out.
Is this human? It's a ghost.
Shocked, the state soldiers reacted quickly, rushed up, and forcibly controlled the remaining forty or fifty people.
The ninth princess sitting in the carriage didn't say anything, as if what had happened just now, the wheels turned, fortunately, the gate of the county government was big enough to accommodate a carriage.
More than a dozen dragon guards stood on both sides of the carriage, lifted the carriage up, and stepped over the steps little by little.
As the carriage entered the county capital, the state soldiers outside withdrew their eyes, they glanced at each other, and without hesitation, the big knife took up and fell, and killed all these people.
It is not an exaggeration to dare to assassinate His Highness the Nine, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the crime of extermination, although His Highness the Nine has never said a word from beginning to end.
But after glancing at the leader Long Wei, the state soldier commander instantly understood, and without saying a word, killed these people.
The external government soldiers, temporarily let go, mainly because they have no substantive action, they can only say that His Royal Highness the Ninth is generous and has not touched her bottom line.
But these guards, dare to do it directly, as subordinate state soldiers, they must have this consciousness to maintain the dignity of the royal family, if they can't even comprehend this intention, he can't serve as a senior lieutenant in the state city.
Not long after the ninth princess entered the front courtyard of the county mansion, suddenly, several explosions sounded in the mansion again.
These explosions, compared with the previous ones, are obviously much smaller, but they are more than enough to kill people.
His Royal Highness the Ninth is in the county government, this Qingcheng county guard and high priest really don't want to die, it's crazy.
The lieutenant of the state soldiers sighed, and he took the people and immediately rushed in.
After a while, in front of him, there was a large group of people, and the first thing they saw was the striking carriage.
The state soldier captain rushed forward, and several dragon guards stopped him, and he opened his mouth to explain.
The black-clothed dragon guard said in a low voice, "Your Highness is fine, you continue to guard the periphery of the county mansion, and I will inform you of something."
The lieutenant nodded, his eyes scanning, and he could see a woman in a white dress standing faintly in the crowd in front of him.
But the lieutenant didn't dare to take a closer look, withdrew his gaze, and left with the people.
At this time, in the middle of the crowd, that is, where the explosion just happened.
The smoke was rising, and next to the woman in white, were Su Qi'an and a few people.
They were wounded, but the explosion had clearly not affected them.
The ninth princess beside her frowned and didn't speak, she was waiting for Su Qi'an to give her an explanation.
The smoke gradually cleared, and in front of a carved wooden gallery lay two charred corpses.
Looking carefully, these two people are the county guards and high priests of Qingcheng, and the two of them should have lost their breath at this time.
On their chests, two daggers were stuck in them with unmistakable accuracy.
This is not the most surprising, in front of the corpse, a woman dressed in black, standing quietly.
She didn't have a black robe on her head, but looking at this background, the ninth princess felt a kind of déjà vu.
After confirming that the Qingcheng County Guard and the High Priest were really dead, the woman in black stepped forward, took back the two daggers, and then turned around.
The Ninth Princess was stunned and said coldly, "It's you!"
This person is none other than the female assassin who assassinated Su Qi'an, known as the King of Hades, and was named Wang Yan by Su Qi'an.
"Why are you here? Do you want to do an assassination?" The ninth princess looked a little unhappy with this person's appearance.
Come to think of it, no one will be happy in the face of an assassin who is athletic and has come and gone without a trace.
Looking at her appearance, the injuries on her body are almost healed, and she has recovered her strength, if she does it again, she will definitely not be able to bear it.
Wang Yan didn't pay attention to the ninth princess's question at all, her eyes looked straight at Su Qi'an.
Letting the Ninth Princess's face tense, several dragon guards slowly stepped forward, forming a trap situation.
The atmosphere between the two sides completely felt like a great enemy, Su Qi'an hurriedly explained.
With the help of Guard Lin, the twelve of them barely stabilized the situation, and the people guarding Qingcheng County couldn't take him at all for a while.
With the passage of time, news from the outside world came in, and the Qingcheng County Guard and the High Priest naturally learned that His Royal Highness the Ninth Royal Family had come to the county seat.
He knew that with the appearance of His Highness the Nine, the bureau he set up was basically abolished, and he could not escape death.
At this point, he had no choice, he did the last game, even if he died, he had to pull Su Qi'an as a backstop.
Taking advantage of the fierce battle between the two sides, the two took out a few black fire beads made of black powder from their waists and threw them towards Su Qi'an.
At this critical moment, Wang Yan suddenly appeared like a divine soldier descending from the sky.
With two swishing sounds, he threw out two daggers, one step faster than the Qingcheng county guard and the high priest.
Inserted into the chests of the two, followed by a flying kick, kicking the two of them away, and after hitting the woodcarved courtyard corridor behind, the black flame bead fell to the ground and exploded.
In other words, without Wang Yan's help, Su Qi'an and them would definitely be killed and injured.
