Chapter 1063: Cold Arrow

The moonlight is hazy, and the night is as cool as water.

This decadent thought was only a fleeting thought, after all, he knew better than anyone else that it was impossible to enjoy a comfortable life in Guangdong all the time.

The power of the Ming Dynasty is in the capital, in the six ministries, and in the cabinet, and it has always been the Beijing officials who hold the lifeblood of the local officials.

If he hadn't returned to the capital in time at the end of last year to see the situation clearly, he would have made a fuss against Guo Pu at the right time. In this external inspection, Guangdong was either gnawed into slag by the Yan Party, or was beaten to the knees and begged for mercy by the Xu Party, and it was categorically not as safe as it is now.

If he wants to maintain the current good situation in Guangdong, ensure the tranquility of Guangdong, protect the hard-won achievements of opening up the sea, and promote the Guangdong region to become more prosperous, then he must continue to "work hard" in the capital.

After three years, he needs to sit in a higher position. Only by fighting like this will he be able to maintain enough influence in the Guangdong foreign inspection to make others respect his opinion all the time.

Today, his career is not just his own. He has been closely linked with the careers of many Guangdong officials, is the protector of these exiled officials, and is the leader of the Guangdong Kaihai faction.

Lin Haoran felt a lot of emotion, stood at the door for a while, and was about to turn around and go back to the house.

Lin Fu is the captain of the guard team, and he walked out with Lin Haoran just now, and has been guarding the surroundings.

As if he had discovered something, he suddenly led the two clansmen to protect the front nervously, and used his body to block Lin Haoran's body, while looking at the roof in front of him vigilantly.

"There's someone on this roof!"

One of the clansmen had just noticed the movement of the roof, so he climbed on the roof to check it, and then shouted loudly.

But at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared on the roof, which had been quiet.

In the faint moonlight, the man held a short bow and quickly bent his bow and arrow. Although it has been exposed, he did not choose to give up, and still obsessively released an arrow.

Cough!

The short arrow was fast and urgent, and although it had a faint moonlight, it was not really visible.

After hearing the movement, guards ran out from all sides, but when they saw this scene of archery, the hearts of the nurses even raised their voices. Once something happens to Lin Haoran, then it will not only be difficult for them to explain to Lin Haoran, but they will also be unable to explain to their own people.

Burst!

The arrow went into the flesh, and blood splattered.

Lin Haoran was really stunned, just at the door of his house, but he was facing the threat of death. An Assassin was lurking on the rooftop, and in a position less than a few feet away from him, he suddenly fired a cold arrow at him, the official of the court.

"Quick! Protect Uncle Nineteen back to the house! ”

Lin Fu blocked this arrow for Lin Haoran, covered his bleeding chest, and gave an order nervously. He did not forget the mission on his shoulders, and vowed to protect this clansman who led the revitalization of the Changlin clan and not let him have any accidents.

The clansmen who climbed onto the roof to inspect watched the assassin release the arrows, and their hearts hung in shock.

Yes......

Knowing where he got the courage, he suddenly shouted, three times and five steps, without giving the assassin another chance to fire the arrow, he threw himself and hugged the assassin tightly, and then the two rolled off the roof.

There are a total of five houses in this alley, Lin Mansion lives in the innermost house in the alley, and the other four houses have long been listed in the name of the United Business Group, and they are all living by themselves.

After hearing the sound, the doors of the four houses had already been opened, and the guards rushed out of the houses.

Lin Haoran is related to the rise and fall of the Changlin clan, and the Changlin clan is not short of silver taels at the moment, so the strength of the guards has always been not weak. It was only the Assassin who was too shrewd to sneak here and lurk on the roof of the party that he seized the opportunity.

The guards led by the Changlin clan looked very angry, and before the assassin could get up from the ground, they immediately surrounded the assassin and someone kicked him fiercely.

The Assassin was in his early thirties, with a mediocre appearance and a thin build, but piercing eyes. was caught at the moment, even if he was kicked hard by the guards who surrounded him, he didn't say a word.

Lin Haoran saw that the crisis had been lifted, and when he saw the injured Lin Fu, he immediately ordered: "Go and invite Langzhong!" ”

"Yes!" One of the clansmen immediately took the order and left.

Lin Fu was a bloody man, but he said strongly: "Uncle Nineteen, I'm fine." This time I was derelict in my duty, and I was actually sneaked here by this assassin without knowing it, which frightened you, Uncle Nineteen! ”

"Ah Fu, don't say that! You've done a great job, thank you for stopping the arrow! Lin Haoran reached out and patted him on the shoulder, expressing his heartfelt gratitude.

Although Ah Fu is his bodyguard and his junior, being able to take the initiative to block arrows for him is not only brave, but really pretending to be his safety in his heart.

But what he never expected was that someone would assassinate him. Judging from the opponent's shortbow, the assassin probably didn't want his life, but the situation was undoubtedly just as bad.

"Uncle Nineteen, how did this assassin deal with it?" One of the clansmen tied up the assassin and escorted him over, and asked Lin Haoran seriously.

Lin Haoran glanced at the assassin and said with a calm face, "Send him to the Shuntian Mansion Prison!" ”

He knew it would be difficult to get the Assassin out of the Assassin's mouth, but he couldn't hold back his anger at this point. This cutting off people's money is like killing their parents, but now they want his life, and he naturally can't give up.

Murdering an official of the imperial court is a capital crime, and it is still in the capital, which is categorically impossible for ordinary people to do, and there must be a powerful person or a group behind it.

There was little commotion, and it was quickly quelled.

It's just that this matter is not small, once Lin Haoran really has an accident tonight, not only will the Changlin clan decline, but the United Business Group will also fall into the predicament of a group of dragons without a leader.

After learning the news, Huang Dafu and others also hurried over.

"I'm fine!" Lin Haoran was staying in the living room drinking tea, and his heart had calmed down.

If he is injured, he will have to recuperate at home for a period of time, so as to give Xu Jie enough time to fight back. From this point of view alone, Xu Fu is undoubtedly the biggest suspect.

It's just that he vetoed the suspicion of Xu Fu, after all, Xu Jie, a person in a high position, would definitely not do such a high-risk and low-return thing. Faintly, he felt that the group of people who assassinated him should be the same group as the people who killed Chen Yinshan.

Huang Dafu and the others saw that Lin Haoran was safe and sound, and their hanging hearts were gently relaxed, and they sat down with them in the living room.
