On March 21 of the first year of Yankang, Li Xin, the Marquis of Jing'an, who secretly left Beijing, finally returned to the capital from Ningling.

Although Li Xin did not tell anyone about his trip out of Beijing, the movement of two or three hundred guards was not small, and hundreds of ironclad armor soldiers escorted an inconspicuous black carriage towards the east gate of the capital.

When the carriage came to a distance of about twenty miles from the capital, a sudden change occurred!

The ground directly below the black carriage suddenly exploded, and the violent shock wave directly overturned the carriage, because of the huge power, the carriage that had followed Li Xin for many years was directly blown away by the huge force, and the two big horses pulling the carriage were frightened and neighed, and the sound was terrible!

The guards who accompanied the black carriage, some of them were also knocked to the ground by the great force, but fortunately, these people were all wearing armor, only the nearest one or two people suffered some internal injuries, and most of the rest fell to the ground and suffered some minor injuries.

What is more troublesome is that the horse was frightened and trampled on all sides, injuring many of Li Xin's guards.

When these guards saw the carriage being lifted away, they immediately shouted: "Watch around, guard the marquis!" ”

"Guarding the Hou Ye!"

Hundreds of guards immediately gathered and stood on guard.

Gunpowder is such a thing, at this time there is far no means of remote control, so the person who detonated it must be nearby, and he can't run far.

Above the official road, thick white gunsmoke filled the air.

Judging from this power, if Li Xin and the others were sitting in the carriage, only Ye Mao, who had a strong body, might be able to leave a life at this time, and most of the two people, Li Xin and Li Ping, father and son, would be dead.

After the smoke cleared, a man in black walked over from not far away with an expressionless face.

Unscathed.

The tall Ye Guogong led Li Ping and walked behind Li Xin, Ye Mao looked left and right at the condition of the carriage, as well as some soldiers who fell to the ground and were injured, and sighed: "It's amazing, it's so powerful, Uncle Shi said that there were assassins, I was still a little unimpressed, I felt that no one could break into the escort of hundreds of guards, and now it seems that Uncle Shi is alert, otherwise I will wait for three people, and it may be the same as this carriage at this time." ”

Soon after coming out of Ningling, Li Xin received a secret report from Zhao Jia and others and the secret department, saying that the clan in the capital was conspiring against something, and Zhao Jia directly said in the letter that it might be an assassination against Li Xin, so on the way back, he was extra careful.

Originally, Ye Mao was a little unimpressed by this news, after all, he was one of the masters of the Great Jin Dynasty, and Li Xin himself was quite good at getting his own internal fist, even if someone broke through the encirclement of hundreds of people, it was unlikely to hurt them, but from a distance of about a hundred miles from the capital, Li Xin no longer took the black carriage of the Marquis of Jing'an, but found another inconspicuous carriage, and the three of them sat in the back carriage.

Governor Li Dadudu's face was expressionless, and he said coldly: "These people, they really dare to do such a deathly thing, they really bullied me and didn't dare to kill people." ”

"Even if Ji Wen wants to kill me in the next life, I will also raise a knife to fight back!"

Governor Li was murderous.

Many of the actions Li Xin has made in the past two years, no matter who it seems, are somewhat benevolent, this is because his concept has not completely changed, and he still feels that human life is as big as the sky, so he did not kill anyone who could not be killed.

But in fact, he had two lives on his hands when he was sixteen years old, and he was by no means a soft-hearted person.

In this era, human life is not as big as the sky, but as cheap as grass.

Ye Mao on the side, seeing Li Xin's appearance, also felt a little sad in his heart, he bowed his head slightly to Li Xin, and said in a low voice: "Uncle Shi should find out this matter clearly......

"I'll find out, of course."

Governor Li's face was full of frost: "When I entered Beijing, I spared these people from dying, for the sake of my wife, I have even tried my best to think about how to let them survive in the past few months, but these people are thinking about my life!" ”

As he spoke, he glanced at his only son beside him, and his voice was indifferent: "I still want my son's life!" ”

Seeing Li Xin like this, Ye Mao was a little afraid to speak, he bowed his head and said, "Uncle Shi, do you want me to go back to the capital first and bring an army over to protect Uncle Shi......"

"I don't need to."

Li Xin waved his hand, his face expressionless: "Let's go to the capital, it won't be long before someone comes to greet us." ”

With that, he turned his head to a big horse, and then reached out and hugged his son in front of him, and said in a low voice: "Go!" ”

Ye Mao was helpless, he also got on the horse, and shouted to a guard beside him: "Assign a hundred people to patrol in front, if there is a suspicious person to be killed on the spot, if this kind of thing happens, none of you can get rid of responsibility!" ”

These people were Li Xin's personal guards, and after hearing Ye Mao's words, they didn't dare to make a move, just looked up at Li Xin.

Governor Li sat on his horse, his face expressionless.

"Yes."

"Yes!"

A hundred guards groped their way forward along the official road back to the capital, little by little.

Because they were afraid that there was still a gunpowder ambush in front of them, Li Xin and others were not fast, and when they were still ten miles away from the capital, five or six hundred horsemen rushed over from the capital in a panic, and after the first two dismounted, they hurriedly knelt in front of Li Xin, kowtowed: "The last general is incompetent, and the governor of the capital is shocked!" ”

After a while, Zhao Jia, who was dressed in white, also rode back, also knelt in front of Li Xin, kowtowed, and said, "The subordinates are incompetent!" ”

Li Xin jumped off the horse, glanced at the three people coldly, and was expressionless: "Where are you incompetent, you are too capable, you know about the conspiracy of the clan in the capital, but you are indifferent, only a fluttering letter was sent to me, do you want to report to me?" ”

"You're going to get away with it!"

Li Xin looked at the three companions who had been with him for more than ten years, and said coldly: "Is it that as long as I can push those Ji family members onto the chopping board, it doesn't matter if I am blown up by them?" ”

"Or I'm blown up, more than you want!"

This was the first time Li Xin had lashed out with them.

Mu Ying and Li Shuo both knelt on the ground, kowtowed to Li Xin, and their voices trembled: "The Grand Dudu, the last general, etc...... Never that way, never like that......"

Comparatively speaking, Zhao Jia was much calmer, and he kowtowed to Li Xin and said, "Governor Dadu, we did receive the news of these clans gathering privately in the capital, but we never knew what they were discussing, and we didn't know what means they were going to use......

"These Ji family members, since they have made up their minds, it is impossible for anyone to leak the news, they may want to assassinate the Grand Duke, which is also speculated by us, if the three of us know that they have this conspiracy, no matter what, today's incident will not happen......"

Speaking of this, he glanced up at Li Xin, and his voice was a little helpless: "As for why we didn't arrest them in advance, after the Metropolitan Governor entered Beijing, he set the rules that he couldn't easily harass these clans, and now we haven't arrested them, in the eyes of the Metropolitan Governor, it is ulterior motives in the eyes of the Metropolitan Governor, if we take advantage of the Metropolitan Governor's absence in the capital to arrest these clans, the Metropolitan Governor will still think that we have ulterior motives after returning to Beijing......"

"I will even think that it is me who fabricated charges and wronged these Ji family members......"

Faced with Zhao Jia's words, Li Xin was speechless.

What the scholar said was reasonable, and he couldn't find a place to refute it.

Li Xin held back the anger in his belly, and he could only snort at the moment: "To be reasonable, I naturally can't talk about Brother You'an." ”

Li Xin, who was dressed in black, faced the Southwest Triumvirate kneeling on the ground, snorted muffled, and brushed his sleeves away.

The three of them glanced at each other, and after Li Xin walked away, they got up from the ground and followed Li Xin towards the capital.

The three of them knew in their hearts that they were finally going to ...... in the capital

The head is rolling.
