Chapter 297: Assassination

The carriage went to the Hou Mansion, Gu Hanzhang still drank a lot, and he was a little drowsy at this time, so he simply closed his eyes and rested for a while.

At this time, it was already dark, and the road was quiet, and there was no movement.

Suddenly, Gu Hanzhang, who had his eyes closed, opened his eyes, and the haze in his eyes disappeared completely, leaving only sharpness.

"Qin Feng, stop."

Qin Feng immediately stopped the carriage, "Shizi, is there something wrong?" ”

Gu Hanzhang lifted the curtain of the carriage and slowly walked out of the carriage, holding a sword in his hand at some point, he jumped down lightly and turned to look behind the empty body.

"I followed all the way, and I didn't do it."

Hearing this, Qin Feng immediately became fully guarded, and the long sword in his hand was already unsheathed.

The sparse sound sounded not far behind the carriage, and then more than twenty people appeared in front of Gu Hanzhang and Qin Feng.

The footsteps of these people are not loud, and each of them has a black face towel on their faces, and their breath is relatively restrained, so it is obvious that they are all practitioners.

Seeing this, Qin Feng suddenly felt a little guilty in his heart, he didn't expect that he didn't find that someone was following, and now the prince who has drunk a lot of wine finds out, which is really a dereliction of duty.

However, now is obviously not a good time to say this, so it is more important to solve the immediate trouble, and he will ask the prince for his guilt later.

"The prince will go back first, and these people will be handed over to his subordinates." Qin Feng spoke.

Gu Hanzhang didn't think that Qin Feng alone could solve these people, they didn't seem to be so easy to deal with.

"Not necessarily." Gu Hanzhang replied.

The man in black immediately rushed to Gu Hanzhang and Qin Feng as soon as the leader raised his hand, and the big knife in his hand shone with silver light.

The sword in Gu Hanzhang's hand was also quickly unsheathed, and he swung the sword in his hand and wandered among the men in black.

Although he drank a lot of wine, Gu Hanzhang felt that there was a murderous aura in these black-clothed people, and his martial arts were not too low, so he seemed to be moving fast, but he was actually very careful.

The cold light staggered the streets at night, accompanied by a lot of muffled humming.

Qin Feng also sprinkled his anger on the man in black, and his actions were also very sharp.

In the past, when Gu Hanzhang was in the capital, there was no one around him to protect him, only Qin Feng followed, and it was also for convenience, for so many years, there has never been a situation where someone has done something in the capital.

Looking at the other party's appearance, it seems that he was planning to kill him, and he was very well prepared.

It didn't take long for Qin Feng to suffer some injuries, and there were blood stains on his abdomen and back.

Gu Hanzhang's arm was scratched by the knife that avoided his heart, the wound was very deep, and the blood fell on the ground of the bluestone slab one by one.

However, most of the men in black have been reduced, and their pressure is much less.

"Who's over there?"

There was a rough roar from the left rear, and the sound of neat armor, Qin Feng's face was happy.

"Shizi, it's from the military camp!"

At this time, Qin Feng was injured and had no strength, he was very worried that he would not be able to continue to protect Gu Hanzhang, but fortunately, someone from the military camp came over, and he didn't think much about whether he was friend or foe.

The man in black saw a small group of people, plus more than half of his own people had been lost, and there were less than ten people at this time, so he immediately made a decision.

"Withdraw!"

At the sound of an order, the remaining few men in black left immediately.

Gu Hanzhang raised his eyes and saw that it was Shi Jingtian, the general of Zhenguo.

He returned from the barracks!

"General Shi." Gu Hanzhang shouted.

Shi Jingtian saw Gu Hanzhang clearly, raised his hand and ordered his subordinates to chase the man in black, he didn't expect that when he returned to Beijing overnight, he would encounter Gu Hanzhang being chased and killed.

"How can Hanzhang be here at night? It smells so strong, you kid doesn't like to drink, why did you change after getting married? ”

Shi Jingtian opened his mouth as he walked, and when he arrived in front of Gu Hanzhang, he patted him on the shoulder fiercely.

Gu Hanzhang was slapped and took a step back, looking at Shi Jingtian helplessly.

This Zhenguo general can be regarded as Gu Hanzhang's elder, he is more than ten years younger than Gu Yuan, and he is a very righteous person, when he was young, he went to the battlefield with Gu Yuan, and was rescued by Gu Yuan, so he is also very close to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion.

In his early years, Gu Hanzhang was thrown into the barracks by Gu Yuan, and he was under the command of Shi Jingtian.

Fang Yaohui and Fang Zhengye were also under Shi Jingtian's command, but they didn't expect that not long after Fang Zhengye went back, Shi Jingtian would actually enter Beijing.

There is no news from the emperor's side, which means that Shi Jingtian was not ordered to enter Beijing, and it is likely that he entered Beijing without permission.

Of course, there is also a possibility that Emperor Renxiao summoned him to Beijing.

"The general is still as burly as ever, and this time he almost smashed Hanzhang's shoulder." Gu Hanzhang said.

Shi Jingtian glared at the junior in front of him who pretended to be weak, "Okay, okay, I still don't know what kind of ability you have." It's so late now, I think I'll enter the palace to see the emperor first, and I'll talk to you in detail another day. ”

"Okay." Gu Hanzhang should be ordered.

The two parted ways, and Gu Hanzhang returned home as quickly as possible.

After returning home, Gu Hanzhang went to Fan Tong and bandaged his wounds before returning to Yuge.

Fortunately, there was no poison on the knife, and it was not troublesome to deal with, Qin Feng's injuries were a little more serious, so he simply stayed with Fan Tong to sleep for the night.

Gu Hanzhang walked into the house in a whisper, and there was still a lamp left in the room, which Chao Li had left for him.

But she should have fallen asleep, breathing steadily, and it was time for her to be a child.

Originally, Gu Hanzhang wanted to go to bed to sleep, but when he saw Chaoli falling asleep, he was worried about waking people up, and he didn't go to bathe, just wiped his body and changed his clothes, feeling that it was not too clean, so he rested on the soft couch.

In addition to the wedding night, this is the second time Gu Hanzhang has slept on the soft couch.

Early the next morning, when Gu Hanzhang woke up, Chao Li had just sat up.

"The prince came back quite late last night." Chao Li spoke lightly.

Looking at her appearance, she seems to be a little angry.

Gu Hanzhang's heart moved slightly, and he immediately explained.

"Don't get me wrong, madam, I just drank some wine yesterday, and walked out of the restaurant with Lin Shoufu and Cheng Feng. It's just that when I came back last night, I encountered an assassination and was slightly injured, and Qin Feng's injuries were slightly more serious, so I delayed. ”

Hearing Gu Hanzhang's careful explanation, the little displeasure in Chao Li's heart had long since dissipated, and it was replaced by a sense of distress.

"Where is the son of the world? How could someone assassinate the prince in the capital, and the other party was so bold? At the feet of the Son of Heaven, he did something to the prince of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, but he found someone? Chao Li asked a few questions in a row.

Gu Hanzhang breathed a sigh of relief and showed Chao Li the wound on his left arm.

"It's not very serious, it's just that the wound is deeper, and I can't get wet for a few days, and I'm afraid it will leave a scar in the future." As for who it is, I don't know yet, but I happened to meet General Shi returning to Beijing yesterday, and his people went to investigate. Gu Hanzhang said.

Chao Li paused, his eyes were full of surprise, there was only one general surnamed Shi in the entire Great Qi, and that was the general of Zhenguo.

Similarly, her maternal grandfather and uncle were under him.

"General Shi has returned to Beijing?"
