343. One Hundred and Forty-Two, Assassination Part II
readx;
"The emperor is worried about your safety, Brother Wolf, and he has repeatedly tightened his guards before, and he can't go out at all, which really suffocates me......"
Ji Fei said to the wolf army star while looking around, looking very curious and excited. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Your Majesty doesn't let us move at will, and he has a reason. โ
Wolf Junxing laughed and said: "In the distant frontier, my general seems to be in a high position, but in fact, when he arrives in the imperial city, he is just a little bit of a crowd. In the post house, there is naturally a forbidden army stationed to guard, if you go to play, you don't have that kind of status at all, you can let a large number of soldiers accompany you. โ
"Oh...... The emperor is really good to Brother Wolf. โ
Wolf Junxing shook his head and smiled: "Brother Ji, you don't need to know the reason for this. However, it is obvious that Your Majesty is worried, we have been here for a long time, and it is not calm. Daring to assassinate an official in Beijing is by no means an ordinary act of audacity. โ
"Hehe......" Ji Fei looked at him and said softly, "Brother Wolf has me and Xiao Ming to protect him, even if the boss is not there, he is not afraid of anyone-ah, what a lively long street!"
When a few people heard the reputation, the front was bustling and crowded, and it was really lively.
"Let's go!" Wolf Junxing also became interested, and said with a laugh, "Let's go and see!"
The long street here is called Tai'an, with many buildings, many merchants, crowded people, and busy traffic.
When they got closer, they dismounted and walked down the street.
"It's been a long time since I've seen such a prosperous realm......"
Wolf Junxing sighed and said: "The frontier city is like a military camp and more like a town, and the people are poor, where is the weather here." โ
"Is it lively here, or is it ...... A little dirty...... Let's take a look at the novelty. Ji Fei raised his posture and looked around, "However, people, they all like to be popular, and it is reluctant to be able to adjust it here...... Uh......"
A few people were still talking and laughing, and Xiao Ming, who was dull on the side, suddenly stopped in front.
"Hmphโ"
A nasal sound, like the beating of a big drum, shook the people on all sides.
"There are assassins?!"
The wolf army star had a long knife in his arms, and suddenly flew up, facing the silent black arrow in the opposite air.
Silence Arrow!
"Bang-"
The force exploded, and the huge momentum pushed the crowd away, forming a circular clearing.
The streets and alleys were suddenly in chaos......
Inside the Royal Palace.
"Zhong Aiqing, what do you mean is also to intercede for Meng Rishi?"
The emperor groaned and asked Zhong Ruzhen, who was standing in front of him.
This You Qulang seems to be in his fifties, with gray hair, rich and calm, and a big belly, because he has been pampered and well-maintained all year round. His mouth was shrunken, his lips were very thin, and he seemed to be well-behaved and eloquent.
In the eyes of the emperor, this Zhong Ruzhen is really a courtier who makes him love and hate.
He is a disciple of Xianmen, but he loves the power and wealth of the world, and forms a party for personal gain-if the entire empty string party, if you really want to pick out a leader, it must be Zhong Ruzhen. Just like the unfinished corruption before, countless clues finally point to this fat old man who seems to be harmless to humans and animals.
However, although the emperor, who had obtained a lot of evidence of his crimes, was furious and reprimanded and punished him, he finally suppressed it and did not do it.
This is not only because of Zhong Ruzhen's Xianmen background, but also because the emperor has been under Zhong Ruzhen's care since he was a child......
"Yes, Your Majesty. Zhong Ruzhen leaned over and said, "The Red Rebels are still revived. Since there are lessons from the past, it is better to make plans as early as possible, send people who can recruit and fight well, and recruit and kill, so as not to become a climate for the rebels. Meng Rishi has been killing enemies in the southwest for many years, and his brave strategy has long been confirmed, so it is better to let him redeem his merits and kill the traitor. โ
The emperor was still muttering: "Wolf Aiqing has been staying in the Central Plains, originally I wanted General Meng to replace him and go to the northern Xinjiang to garrison ......"
When Zhong Ruzhen heard this, he hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, the Han people are fighting endlessly, although they have violated the border before, after all, they have also been severely damaged by the wolf army. Moreover, these northern tribes do not like the Zhongxuan climate, at most they are just plundering, and they will not pose a real threat to our dragon source. But the Red Stripe Rebellion is the real harm, and it must be prevented!"
Seeing that the emperor was a little moved, he stepped forward and continued: "Your Majesty, General Wolf's team actually has too many foreign generals, and it is not suitable for permanent ...... in the Central Plains."
"Hehe......" When the emperor heard this, he suddenly laughed softly.
He looked at Zhong Ruzhen, and naturally knew that the two of them actually had a grudge because of the anti-corruption incident.
"Okay. The emperor finally said, "Since you Aiqing have written one after another, complaining about Meng Riqing's grievances - even after I asked Wolf Aiqing, you have to give a positive evaluation, then it is as Aiqing said...... However, there is the opinion of Lord Taiwei and many ministers, and it is not easy to reward the southwest expedition, so let him go straight to suppress the bandits, and then see the merits......"
"Your Majesty is just. Zhong Ruzhen smiled and said, "General Wolf also has clear grievances, and the eldest husband is also ......."
At this moment, someone from the palace suddenly came to report.
"Your Majesty, General Wolf was assassinated on Tai'an Street. โ
"What?!"
The emperor was furious, and suddenly looked at Zhong Ruzhen coldly: "Zhong Aiqing, you are really becoming more and more lawless, do you still take me in your eyes?"
"Your Majesty has been wronged!"
Zhong Ruzhen was not afraid, but his face was still ugly, and he hurriedly saluted, constantly shouting injustice: "My generation cultivates, and my words are the same." This is not our doing......"
"Hmph......" The emperor glanced at him fiercely, suppressed his anger, and strode forward, "Let's go, go with me and have a look, I hope you can do it yourself......"
"What a guts!"
Ji Fei was like an arrow from a string, striding forward, and went to attack the assassin in the distance.
"At the feet of the Son of Heaven, he dares to be murderous!"
The assassin was undaunted and calm, standing outside the crowd, staring coldly at Ji Fei, who was screaming.
"Huh?"
Ji Fei suddenly stopped his body, leaned around, and dodged the short halberd that stabbed silently in the crowd.
"Give it to me!"
With Ji Fei's roar, his right fist smashed directly into the halberd blade, making a loud "bang", like a golden stone exchange.
I saw the sneak attack on the assassin, let out a low cry, and took three steps back.
This one holding a halberd is a short-bearded man, with an ordinary appearance, but his brave spirit is no longer hidden.
He looked at Ji Fei's figure, both shocked and murderous. As soon as he made a move, he was unexpectedly broken with his bare hands, and the blade was broken, and it came vigorously, and the tiger's mouth shook violently, and his heart was angry, and he got erect.
"Sneak attack villain. โ
Ji Fei squinted at him and laughed mockingly.
"Killโ"
The big man's face turned red, and the tiger roared, and pounced again.
At this moment, among the crowds on both sides of the street, more than a dozen gray-clothed men suddenly rushed out, all in coarse linen clothes, holding weapons, and pounced on the surrounding guards of the wolf army star with a muffled voice.
Several wolf generals, without command, immediately assembled as quickly as possible, centered on the wolf army's star, and formed a dense defensive formation.
The crowd on the street was chaotic, the wolves rushed to the pigs, and the panicked shouts filled the previously bustling streets and alleys.
"With Xiao Ming here, don't take care of me. โ
Wolf Junxing calmly shouted to his subordinates: "Give it to me, kill these wanton thieves!"
"Yesโ"
The surrounding subordinates, who were also warriors who were mixed in the battlefield, heard the commander's order, and immediately stopped caring about it, and with the anger in their chests, they shouted to meet them: "Death-"
Like a tiger out of its cage, they roared and shouted, fighting those assassins in a frenzied fight.
Wolf Junxing's fierce face was gloomy, covered with a layer of frost, he reached out and patted Xiao Ming, who was as calm as a mountain: "What's the matter?
"Good. โ
Xiao Ming smiled innocently and nodded slightly.
"You-" The wolf army star pointed at the assassin who shot the silence arrow, his voice was not loud, but in the shouting and killing, it clearly transmitted to the other side, "dare to fight me face to face!"
The assassin's gaze crossed Ji Fei and looked at the wolf army star from afar, and suddenly let out a low roar, changed his crossbow into a sword, and started to speed up, rushing over like a fly.
Wolf Junxing sneered, waved his hand to recall the long knife, jumped out, and stood quietly in the center of the empty field.
Xiao Ming also stood up and strode lazily, but he instantly came to the side of an assassin, and in the roar, the giant fist fell, smashing it to the ground, killing him instantly.
The wolf army guards who are fighting endlessly next to him are brave men of different races, and they are the elite of the bloody battles one in a hundred, although they are not as extraordinary as a few people, but their talent and skills are not much inferior to those assassins.
Xiao Ming's huge body and murderous like pinching grass immediately attracted the attention of the assassins. Two big knives shot at each other.
Xiao Ming didn't dodge or dodge, and suddenly flew his legs to catch up, and with a "bang", he kicked one of them into the air, and blood sprayed like rain. The other person did not retreat but advanced, swung a knife and slammed it, and Xiao Ming's cross arm sealed the frame.
"Whenโ"
The knife slashed at his arm, and he could not see any wounds.
Immediately afterwards, the giant fist in Xiao Ming's left hand suddenly burst out, hitting the man's chest, only to hear the sound of "rattling", the man flew upside down in the air, his chest was shriveled, with a puddle of blood, he fell to the snow on the side of the road, and he couldn't live.
At this time, at the place where Ji Fei was in front, the big man with the halberd attacked the fourteen halberds in one breath, and Ji Fei did not change his face, dodged to a certain extent, and dealt with it calmly.
When the two sides were at a stalemate, Ji Fei kept sneering and sneering, so angry that he yelled at the other side.
After dozens of moves, Ji Fei seemed to be bored, and began to change his strategy, and made a counterattack, making the big man scramble, and before he could resist a few moves, Ji Fei flashed behind him, smashed a punch in the back of the heart, and fell to the ground, and there was no movement.
"It's a cold day, and the warm-up is good. โ
Ji Fei wiped the sweat that didn't exist, looked at the people in all directions, and saw a few young women with discoloration, and didn't forget to shake their hair.
"Killโ"
The sudden earth-shattering shouts from behind made Ji Fei's jokes that he wanted to say were all covered.
"Alas, Brother Wolf is angry. Ji Fei shook his head helplessly and looked back.
Facing the assassin who was about to step into the empty field, the wolf army star suddenly roared, and the long knife in his hand plunged into the muddy snow on the ground, he strode forward, leaned over and dragged the knife forward, the momentum, like a huge wave in the sky, surging wildly.
