Chapter 159: A Night of Chaos
Chen Ziang took the things in his hand, tied the long sword tightly behind his back, and ran towards the outside of the Heavenly Pavilion of Wuyue at great speed.
Beyond a courtyard, a towering attic comes into view.
Stepping on the ridge of the roof, he crossed again and again, and in a short time he was already near the attic.
"Stop, who are you?"
A platoon of ten armored soldiers blocked Chen Ziang's way from a distance.
The person at the head raised his eyebrows and big eyes, raised the spear in his hand and pointed it at Chen Ziang and shouted.
"I'm one of the 100 households in Dongchang, Sun En! I have something important to leave. ”
Chen Ziang took out his waist card, and the person opposite looked at the costume, which should be a member of the capital city defense army.
"Huh?"
The man took a closer look at the waist card and said, "Lord Baihu, wait a minute, I want to report to the official." ”
All forces in the capital participated in this operation, and it was not strange that someone from Dongchang appeared from inside, and the other party was not too suspicious, and Chen Ziang was approved with a few words.
It's just that before leaving, two more people came over, seeing that the clothes and armor should be palace guards, and they wanted to search their bodies.
However, Chen Ziang only had a book and a cloth in his hand, which was obviously not within the scope of their search, and the search was quickly passed.
Arching his hand at a figure in the attic, Chen Ziang disappeared into the residence of the Wuyue Chaotian Pavilion after a while.
Not long after he left, Lin Muhua, who was iron-faced, appeared here with someone, and when he knew that Chen Ziang had left, he fanned the two guards who searched for Chen Ziang to the ground with one palm.
"Bastard thing!"
His face was hideous, and he was about to step forward to give the two of them another palm, but his face was blue and white, white and blue by the undulating qi and blood in his body, like a clown who changed his face.
And Chen Ziang's face was not good-looking at this time, because when he rushed to the position he had agreed with Boss Xiu, he didn't see Boss Xiu!
The dark restaurant stood quietly and peacefully in the night among a group of low-rise shops, and the upstairs room was empty.
"The incident happened suddenly, the transaction was rescheduled, and we will meet again in seven days!"
The handwriting was sloppy, and it was clear that the person who wrote it was in a hurry.
Chen Ziang put away the letterhead with a gloomy face, turned around and jumped out of the restaurant.
With Lin Muhua's temperament, it is impossible to let himself go, and with his identity and power, he can press himself as a big rebel and colluding with rebels with just one sentence.
Not to mention the seventh, it is possible that tomorrow your wanted portrait will be hung all over the bulletin board of the entire capital!
Time is not on your side at all!
Chen Ziang's figure shuttled rapidly in the night, and the turmoil in the direction of Wuyue towards the Heavenly Pavilion gradually subsided, and only the faint sound of insects could be heard in his ears.
Avoiding the patrols on the streets, he first returned to his home.
Rummaging through the cabinets, taking out his antidote, and taking his gold and silver with him, he disappeared into the night again.
On the second day, one news after another shocked the real capital.
And the Wuyue Chaotian Pavilion was destroyed overnight, and it wasn't even the most exciting of them!
"Did you hear? Last night, someone broke into the Forbidden Palace at night and assassinated His Majesty, although the assassin was finally taken down, but His Majesty was also seriously injured and is still unconscious!"
In a restaurant, diners were bustling with current affairs, and Chen Ziang turned into a burly man, eating and drinking alone by the window.
The chatter of a nearby table attracted his attention.
'The Emperor was assassinated?'
"Wouldn't it? The Imperial Palace is heavily guarded, and it can be regarded as the safest place in the whole world, and who can sneak in and assassinate His Majesty? impossible!"
The other person at the table shook his head again and again, looking at his face clearly not believing the other party's news.
"Don't believe it! I got this news from my brother-in-law, who is a neighbor of the distant nephew of the uncle of the three-room concubine under the command of the forbidden army!"
Seeing that the other party did not believe it, the man hurriedly pulled the relationship to prove the reliability of his source.
"Really?"
Several people around couldn't help but straighten their faces when they heard this, and they surrounded themselves and muttered quietly.
Chen Ziang also silently used his true qi and ears to listen carefully.
"Do you know the Wuyue Chaotian Pavilion?
"We've heard about it, but it has nothing to do with His Majesty's assassination, right?"
One questioned.
"Why is it okay?"
The man raised his voice sharply.
"How powerful is the Wuyue Chaotian Pavilion? What force can destroy it overnight?
The man patted his thigh vigorously, and his tone was excited, as if he had discovered some big secret.
"Yesterday, all the masters in the palace went to the Wuyue Chaotian Pavilion, and there will definitely be a lot fewer guards in the palace! ”
Several other people also understood, and nodded yes.
"Do you know who assassinated Your Majesty?"
The man asked in a low voice, with a mysterious smile on his face, which meant that you should ask quickly, you should ask quickly.
"Who assassinated Your Majesty?"
Naturally, the others would not disturb each other's temperament, and hurriedly asked.
"It's someone from Da Wei!"
"What?"
Several people were taken aback, and one of them was even more anxious: "Didn't you say that you had agreed to talk about peace?
The emperor was assassinated and fell into a coma, or even the assassination and death of the crown prince ascended the throne, they would not be too nervous, after all, these things were too far away from themselves.
However, once Southern Chu fought in the Great Wei, it would naturally levy food and wages for the people below, and taxes would also be increased, which was a major matter related to their own livelihood.
"Hmph! It's fake, but it's true!"
"How do you know that it was someone from Great Wei who carried out the assassination, maybe it was someone from Wuyue Chaotian Pavilion who did it?"
When faced with something they don't want to believe, the first thing people think of is denying it!
The man at the beginning snorted coldly, and then continued: "I didn't say this, but Xiao Shengjun who entered Beijing from the north said it. ”
"Yesterday evening, the men of the Xiaosheng Army forcibly broke into the peace envoy and killed all the people who were close to him, but when they were leaving, they ran into an assassin who had escaped from the palace to assassinate His Majesty! Otherwise, it is really a mystery who assassinated His Majesty. ”
"Why did the Xiao Shengjun kill the people of the peace mission for no reason? I think they just want to block our peace talks with the Great Wei! These soldiers are not enough to be chaotic!"
One of them suddenly said angrily.
"Who knows if what they say is true or not? I think they just want to erase the charge of killing the Heqin Mission!"
"No, the person who committed the assassination was a congenital real person with obvious characteristics, and he was caught on the spot, and he had nothing to do with the pro-mission. ”
The sound of the argument was unconscious, Chen Ziang retracted his mind and silently dried the bowl of wine in front of him.
"Little Er, check out!"
Walking out of the restaurant, Chen Zi walked towards the secluded place with his brows raised.
Yesterday's incident seems to be very reasonable and should be true, but such a thing has spread throughout the capital in one day, which has to make people suspicious?
Yesterday the incident happened suddenly, the emperor fell into a coma, and whether he could wake up or not is two theories.
Several princes who are expected to ascend to the throne will definitely make moves, and spreading the news of the fraud of the Great Wei peace talks is most beneficial to the three princes who have always opposed the peace talks.
Chen Ziang silently sorted out his thoughts.
Wuyue Chaotian Pavilion, Lu Nanren, Great Wei, Southern Chu, Xiao Shengjun, and several princes.
Yesterday was a lot of fun!
However, none of this is important to Chen Ziang, the important thing is that Lin Muhua, as the commander of the imperial guard, will definitely not have a good time these days!
He will definitely find a way to get rid of his responsibilities, and his own affairs will be temporarily suppressed by him, maybe he will be safe these days, but he can go directly to see Boss Xiu!
Besides, the way he is now, as long as it is not the mental induction of a congenital real person, ordinary people will not be able to recognize it!
