Chapter 219, the assassin kills the king

In the middle of the night of May 17 in the summer of the fourth year of Dashang Jingyuan, Tang Jiusheng, who was in Princess Qingchuan's mansion, gave his good brother Xin Zhiping a matchmaker, and facilitated the marriage of Princess Yin Mei and Xin Zhiping of Qingchuan. Tang Jiusheng, who returned to the guest room that night, slept soundly, and then he didn't expect that something related to him had happened in Yong'an City at this time, and it was very important.

On May 18, in the early hours of the morning, the sky was just dawning, and the vast majority of people in Yong'an, the capital of big commerce, were still asleep. In the Forbidden City, the emperor's dormitory Yang Shen Pavilion, Emperor Yin Guang has already gotten up and freshened up under the service of the little eunuch, and for several days, Yin Guang and Yu Fu, Wei Dehai, the deputy head of the Great Interior, and others have been secretly planning how to take away the military power of Yin Zhongxin, the commander of the Beijing camp who is in charge of the forbidden army.

The commander of the Beijing camp is in charge of more than 30,000 Beijing camp forbidden troops, and Yin Zhongxin is Yang Jingzhong's henchman, if he wants to move Yang Jingzhong's power, he must start with the forbidden army, the forbidden army controls the lifeblood of the entire Beijing division, especially most of the palace guards are responsible for the forbidden army. The best candidate to replace Yin Zhongxin is the confidant of the deputy commander Wei Dehai, the commander of the Shenfeng Battalion in the five battalions of the Beijing camp, Gu Tianyi.

Just if you want to take down Yin Zhongxin, you need a sufficient excuse, how to find this excuse is a headache for Yin Guang and others. Yin Guang cleaned his face under the service of the eunuchs Fushou and Fu'an on duty, changed into civilian clothes and prepared to train female sumo wrestlers first, and then go fishing in Houdehai, Yin Guang muttered to himself: "What should I do?" Last night, the eunuchs Fushou, Fu'an and others were on duty, and Yu Fu rested.

Yin Guang, who was at a loss, was groaning, and suddenly heard the little eunuch Fu Kang who came out of the side room scolding: "Who are you? Is this also the place where you should come?" Then I heard a young voice at the door of the Yang Shen Pavilion and said: "I'm sorry, this father-in-law, I am a new guard with a knife, and I am not familiar with the road, so I took the wrong way!"

Yin Guang was a little puzzled, the guards in the Yang Shen Pavilion were all carefully selected, and they were even more heavily guarded at night, it was impossible for the new guards with knives to go to the Yang Shen Pavilion Su Wei, and it was impossible for the guards with knives to go the wrong way. Moreover, most of the eunuchs of all sizes that Yin Guang carries with him are good at martial arts, and those who can be on duty in Da Nei at night are the main force. Otherwise, why did the Great Shang Kingdom raise tens of thousands of eunuchs?

The eunuch on duty, Fu'an, bowed down and said, "Your Majesty, the slave will go out to see which foolish guard has gone the wrong way!" Yin Guang nodded, signaling him to do it as appropriate, Fu'an turned around and just walked out a few steps away, when he heard the little eunuch Fukang outside the door of the Yangshen Pavilion screaming "Ah!", followed by a pop, someone fell.

The eunuch on duty, Fu An, rushed to the door of the Yang Shen Pavilion, but heard another eunuch Fu Tai shouting hoarsely: "Murder!

Fu'an, who was standing at the door of the Yangshen Pavilion, saw a guard with a fierce eye outside the door carrying a knife, the tip of the knife was still dripping blood, and the little eunuch Fukang was lying on the ground, Fukang was stabbed three times, and the wound was still gurgling outward. Another eunuch, Fu Tai, was also cut down to the ground, and his body was already in a different place. There are also two lanterns next to it that have fallen to the ground.

The assassin turned out to be a guard, and Fu'an was so frightened that he immediately shouted, "There is an assassin, hurry up and escort!" and rushed up to fight the assassin, trying to drag the assassin first.

There was an assassin, Yin Guang in the Yang Shen Pavilion, a spirit, who was in a hurry, shouted at the little eunuch Fu Shou beside him: "Go and call Yu Fu and Wei De."

Come all!" The little eunuch Fu Shou agreed, ignoring the etiquette, ran out of the Cultivation God Pavilion, and ran to the side room on the other side, shouting loudly as he ran, "There is an assassin!

Hearing the shouts of assassins outside, more than a dozen little eunuchs on duty ran out of the side room of the Yangshen Pavilion, holding swords and Fu'an to join forces to surround the assassin with the knife, the assassin's martial arts were so high, in a blink of an eye, several little eunuchs who knew some martial arts were cut to the ground, and Fu'an of the four-grade martial arts realm was also stabbed three times, fortunately, the injury was not fatal, Fu'an shouted while fighting and retreating, and was hit by four more knives.

At the critical moment, Yu Fu and Wei Dequan both rushed from the side room of the side hall, followed by dozens of eunuchs with weapons and lanterns. The eunuchs, under the command of Wei Dequan and Yu Fu, the deputy governors, surrounded the assassin who was pretending to be a guard. Unexpectedly, this assassin was not afraid at all, picked up the steel knife in his hand and fought with these eunuchs, pointing east and west, like a tiger entering a wolf pack, and after a while, more than ten eunuchs fell to the ground with knives.

Wei Dequan and Yu Fu glanced at each other, and saw the horror in each other's eyes, this assassin's combat power was really amazing!

Hearing the shouts outside, Yin Guang reached out and picked up the sword from the imperial case, and strode out of the Yangshen Pavilion. Yin Guang pushed open the side door of the Yang Shen Pavilion, the sky was already light, and he saw that more than 20 eunuchs had fallen in a pool of blood, and the rest of the eunuchs were still fighting to the death, shouting and surrounding the assassin, one after the other. Yin Guang held the Qiankun Sword in his hand and shouted angrily, "Stop!" and then asked, "Who are you, dare to assassinate in the palace?"

Hearing Yin Guang's voice, Wei Dequan and Yu Fu hurriedly retreated to the emperor's side, one left and one right, and protected Yin Guang. Yu Fu complained in a low voice: "Your Majesty, it's dangerous here, you shouldn't come out!" All the eunuchs also retreated to the Danqi and faced the assassin with their swords. The assassin slowly tore off the skin of his face, only to see that it was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, with an angular face and piercing eyes.

The assassin scolded: "Yin Guang, you faint king! This son is the son of the national teacher Tang Fulong, Tang Jiusheng of Tianchang Mansion in Jiangnan Province, and he came to the palace today to kill you! You faint monarch is loyal and treacherous, and demoted my father to a protector of the country, and also degraded many officials who are loyal to the Great Shang, our Great Shang Country, now the whole dynasty is full of traitors, and the vassal kings have their own different intentions, an emperor like you is really disappointing, and it is difficult for the people to be angry if they don't kill you!"

Yin Guang was furious and shouted: "Tang Jiusheng, your Tang family has been favored by the country, and you are a hereditary national teacher! Where can I not stand you? You dare to come to the palace to assassinate the king! Left and right, take down this traitor who dares to assassinate in the palace!" The eunuchs shouted, and they were about to step forward, and at this moment, the shouting of killing sounded not far away, "There are assassins, quickly, protect the emperor!"

Under the leadership of He Rongting, the commander of the guards on duty, hundreds of Ouchi guards ran into the small square outside the Yangshen Pavilion with knives and crossbows, and quickly surrounded Tang Jiusheng. He Rongting, the commander of the guards on duty, was sweating profusely, his face was full of panic, no matter whether he could capture this assassin alive today, his He Rongting's official hat would have to be taken off, and it would be the emperor's grace not to be beheaded by the whole house.

Tang Jiusheng, who was surrounded by his heart, did not panic at all, holding a bright steel knife in his hand, and sneered at Yin Guang, "Yin Guang, the reason why this son showed mercy to his subordinates just now was to wait for you to come out and throw yourself into the net! Lao Tzu had already entered the first product at the age of fifteen, and he wanted to stop me with these wine bags and rice bags under your hand? It's just a dream!"

Yin Guang shouted: "Who can take down the assassin Tang Jiusheng today, reward a thousand gold, and seal ten thousand households!"

He Rongting, the commander of the guards on duty, hated this assassin in his heart, he made such a fuss, his official hat would never be able to keep it, and the guard commander with a second-grade martial arts realm ordered He Rongting to jump forward, pull out a steel knife, and shouted: "The surname Tang, don't talk nonsense, quickly put down your weapons and kneel down and beg the emperor to be light, otherwise you will be punished by the nine clans of the Tang family!"

Tang Jiusheng smacked fiercely, "Phew, I, a good man who stands up to the sky and the earth, how can I kneel down a senseless faint king?" Tang Jiusheng pointed at He Rongting with a knife, "Hurry up and get out of the way of this son, whoever dares to block me will die!"

He Rongting shouted, "Get out of the way!" The guards surrounding Tang Jiusheng stepped back in unison, making way for the commander He Rongting, He Rongting spit out a breath of turbidity, raised his knife and rushed towards Tang Jiusheng, Tang Jiusheng also waved his knife and rushed forward, the steel knife in the hands of the two people slashed at each other, knocking out countless sparks, and when they passed by, He Rongting's left shoulder was bleeding, obviously injured.

As soon as the injured He Rongting turned around, he felt a cold chill, and Tang Jiusheng, who turned back vertically, had already split He Rongting in half from head to toe, and He Rongting's body fell to the ground. Yin Guang and all the eunuchs and guards present were heartbroken.

He Rongting's martial arts are not low among the guards, and He Rongting, who is a second-grade strength, was killed without holding out for two rounds in front of Tang Jiusheng? Yin Guang heard Dongwei's military say that Tang Jiusheng's martial arts were strong, and when he saw it today, he really lived up to his reputation!

The guards who surrounded Tang Jiusheng fired a salvo of dozens of crossbows in their hands, and the rain of arrows flew towards Tang Jiusheng. The sleeves of Tang Jiusheng's robe were bulging, and when those crossbow arrows were still three feet away from Tang Jiusheng, they had already fallen to the ground, and they couldn't get close to him at all.

Yin Guang sighed softly, such a good martial art has become a rebellion, it's a pity! Yu Fu beside Yin Guang suddenly had a surge of qi, looking at Tang Jiusheng as if he was facing a great enemy. Because Tang Jiusheng had already sneered, he jumped up and pounced towards Yin Guang, and the guards and eunuchs who jumped up halfway to intercept Tang Jiusheng were knocked away by Tang Jiusheng one after another.

Wei Dehai, the deputy chief of the eunuchs, shouted in a panic: "The emperor is careful!" Holding the emperor, he rolled to the side, lying on Yin Guang's body, using his body as a shield, trying to block this fatal blow for the emperor. Yu Fu, who had a solemn face, jumped up and drew an arc in the air and crashed into Tang Jiusheng from the left side, Originally, His Majesty the Emperor instructed Yu Fu not to expose his martial arts easily, but at this time, it was important to save his life, where could he manage so much?

Yu Fu's right palm slashed at Tang Jiusheng's steel knife, and the steel knife in Tang Jiusheng's hand, which was already at the end of the crossbow after knocking away the guards and eunuchs, was slashed hard! At the same time that the steel knife was slashed with his right palm, Yu Fu's left palm also came out, slashing at Tang Jiusheng's neck, and the unsuspecting Tang Jiusheng made a hard touch with Yu Fu with his left palm, and was knocked out two feet away, breaking a thick pillar at the door of the Yangshen Pavilion with a click.

Tang Jiusheng turned over and landed, his face was shocked, he looked at Yu Fu, and asked in a deep voice, "Will you be in the Heavenly Yin Palm?!"

Yu Fu didn't answer, he landed gently, looked at Tang Jiusheng proudly, and said loudly: "With me here today, you don't want to hurt a single hair of Your Majesty!"

Tang Jiusheng nodded, and said with a contemptuous smile: "What a loyal minion! Since you want to die, then this son will fulfill you!"
