Chapter 11: The Coffin Hides the Living
With that, the guards prepared to pull the carriage towards the city gate.
"Stop!" A loud shout rang out.
Zhou Yang strode to the carriage and took out the sword from Zhao Wuyang's waist.
Seeing that Zhou Yang started to use the knife again, the guards who were still arrogant just now suddenly felt their scalps tingle.
This Seventh Highness did not show any mercy when he moved his hands, if there was a slight mistake, it might be possible that he would become the person lying in the coffin next.
But fortunately, the sword in the hand of this Seventh Highness was not pointed at them.
Instead, he stabbed into the coffin.
With a "poof", the knife stabbed the body of the body in the coffin.
Seeing this scene, even Zhao Wuyang couldn't help but feel sorry for the corpse in his heart.
This guy was really unlucky, and he was stabbed twice by the Seventh Prince in one day.
The guards also suddenly became nervous, and fine beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads.
But fortunately, there was no movement after this knife went down.
"I didn't expect such brutality and inhumanity under the air cushion, even for a corpse without the minimum respect."
"Today's matter, after we go back, we must truthfully report to the Fourth Highness, and when the time comes, the Seventh Highness will explain it to Your Majesty!"
There was no discovery, and the guards were more confident.
Although this matter is not big or small, it is enough for the four princes to sue Zhou Yang in front of Emperor Deyuan.
"Really? In that case, then the main palace will simply do it to the end. ”
A sneer appeared at the corner of Zhou Yang's mouth.
The treasure knife in his hand stabbed down hard again.
I saw that the coffin where the sword passed directly through it, and even the carriage below was pierced, and the tip of the knife appeared at the bottom of the carriage.
At this moment, a heart-rending howl suddenly came from inside the coffin.
"Ah......h
This body howls very loudly.
However, these people present were suddenly taken aback, and the cold sweat on their bodies couldn't help but break out.
At midnight, there was still a huge bright moon hanging in the sky, and the corpse in the coffin actually howled.
This scene can make everyone's cold hair stand on end, and cold sweat is dripping.
"Is this a corpse?"
"No, the dead will still be conscious, is it midnight resurrection?"
The officials of Dali Temple were all trembling with fright.
He kept hiding behind the soldiers, guessing wildly.
Some people even had weak legs, couldn't even move their steps, and were lying on the ground trembling all over.
Although Zhao Wuyang was also startled, he didn't have the slightest fear when he saw Zhou Yang, but a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he immediately understood.
There is a living person hidden in this coffin!
"I have to say, the four princes of your family are really lacking in virtue!"
"To put such a big living person in a coffin is disrespectful to the deceased."
As he spoke, Zhou Yang waved his hand at Zhao Wuyang.
"Do it, take out the people in the coffin to this palace!"
As soon as Zhou Yang's words fell, Zhao Wuyang led a group of people to directly overturn the coffin from the carriage.
The body inside the coffin also fell out, along with a large living person.
It turned out that there was a mezzanine inside the coffin, with a corpse on top and a person hidden below.
The man limped to his feet after being pulled out of the coffin.
Zhou Yang's knife just now was so coincidental, but it was unfortunate that it stabbed at the root of his thigh, if it was an inch off, I am afraid that he could directly enter the palace as a eunuch.
Seeing that he had been discovered, the assassin did not dare to be careless, and subconsciously prepared to resist.
However, the people who Zhao Wuyang had arranged around him had already made preparations, and before the assassin could resist, more than a dozen sharp blades were placed around his neck.
Followed by ropes and chains, they went into battle and directly tied up the assassin.
"It's a surprise, I didn't expect us to meet again!"
Zhou Yang said compassionately, his eyes full of hatred.
The person who was tied up in front of him was the assassin who assassinated his mother that day.
Although he covered his face with a face towel at that time, Zhou Yang still recognized it through his eyes at once.
"Serve him well to this palace!"
Hearing Zhou Yang's words, Zhao Wuyang was the first to rush forward, and kicked the assassin's heart with a ruthless kick.
Barely kicked the assassin in his back.
At the same time, the fist rained down on the assassin's body.
"After eating the bear's heart and leopard gall, you dare to assassinate my cousin, see Lao Tzu greet you well today."
Zhou Yang looked at the guards again.
The cold eyes made the guards shudder, and their hearts unconsciously retreated.
"Secretly transporting assassins out of the city, this is not a small crime, it seems that you have a lot to do with the assassination of Concubine Xian, since you are all here, then don't leave today."
The guards glanced at each other, as if they had made up their minds.
"Count a few of our brothers unlucky, originally they just collected money and took some private goods out of the city, wanting to earn some extra money, but they didn't expect it to fall into the hands of the Seventh Highness."
It was unwilling to shout loudly, and suddenly, they pulled out the steel knife at their waists.
However, they did not step forward to deal with Zhou Yang, but put the knife on their necks and wiped their necks directly.
The speed was so fast that even Zhou Yang didn't react, and in the blink of an eye, those guards turned into several corpses.
"Damn, I didn't think they would make such a move!"
Zhou Yang muttered in a low voice.
Seeing that Zhou Yang so easily caught the assassin who assassinated Concubine Xian.
Liu Ke also hurriedly came up with a smile on his face and patted Zhou Yang's ass.
"His Royal Highness the Seventh is really a clever plan, but let the lower officials watch a good show, but how can it be that tonight, the fourth prince will let people send this assassin out of the city?"
When they caught the assassin tonight, their people from Dali Temple were there.
Although they didn't make much effort, after all, they had a share, and they definitely had to get a piece of the credit.
"Thank you so much Lord Liu, if you hadn't gone to the banquet today as promised, I'm afraid I don't know when you will catch this cunning guy."
This sentence was clueless, which made Liu Ke very puzzled.
Zhou Yang glanced at him coldly.
"Someone under you colluded with the Four Princes to report the news, and secretly told the Four Princes about the direction of our investigation of every move, didn't you find out at all?"
Zhou Yang's voice was not loud, but it made Liu Ke cold, and his subordinates turned out to be traitors.
