Chapter 52: The Assassin Kills
Under the tower of the imperial city, there is a vacant land, at this time, many people in the capital are gathered in this square, want to see the dragon's face, Chengde Tianzi changed into civilian clothes, walked in the crowd, smiled at these bustling people, and felt a little proud.
These are his people.
More than 30 years ago, the Great Jin Dynasty was in the hands of Emperor Wu, that is, the father of the Son of Chengde ruled the world, but the life of the common people was not good.
Today, eighteen years later, the Great Jin Dynasty has entered a prosperous era, although it is inevitable that some people will still be hungry, but at least in the capital, it is a singing and dancing appearance.
In the past, ordinary people, or a few members of a family huddled together, or some lovers who were in love, secretly ran to the side, but this time was not as open as in later generations, in front of many people, these young men and women were at most holding hands, and they didn't dare to do anything else.
There are also some hawkers selling fireworks and food, walking through the sea of people.
From time to time, a few young men of four or five years old chased each other, and then fell to the ground, crying and crying.
This is the prosperity of this era, the prosperity of Chengde.
After Chengde Tianzi put his hands on his back, he was very satisfied with the scene in front of him.
His Majesty the Emperor may know that the people of Jingzhao Mansion are driving away the poor and forbidding the poor from entering Yongle Fang, or he may not know, but on such a happy day, those details are not important, as long as he is happy, it is enough.
In the crowd, more than a dozen Shu people dressed in civilian clothes were mixed in the crowd, and they were all looking in the direction of the Son of Heaven in Chengde, intentionally or unintentionally.
Among these dozen people, there are special people who are watching, since the Chengde Emperor walked down the tower, they have been staring at this Great Jin Emperor, they are silently waiting, waiting for the Chengde Emperor to approach himself.
Finally, they waited for their chance.
Emperor Chengde walked to a place that was only twenty or thirty steps away from them, and at this time, those Yu Linwei in civilian clothes in the crowd had already begun to drive people away intentionally or unintentionally, this distance was the closest they could get close, because no matter how close they were, they would be surrounded by Yu Linwei.
A middle-aged man with a short stature, his right hand gently waved downward.
It's what it means to be hands-on.
More than a dozen people in the crowd moved instantly, these dozen people were not tall, they were deliberately selected some people with flexible skills, these people were moving in the crowd, and their target was only one, that is, Chengde Tianzi in purple clothes.
Yu Linwei's people quickly discovered the abnormal movement of these people, these Yu Lin Wei were all elites, and immediately shouted to stop.
"What do you do?"
Where are these remnants of Nanshu willing to pay attention to them, and they can't help but rush towards the direction of the Son of Heaven in Chengde,
The Feather Forest Guards began to draw their swords.
At this time, Li Chun, who was dressed in a strong suit, rushed in on horseback, and he rushed directly in the direction of Chengde Tianzi despite all obstacles, and he didn't know how many civilians he knocked down along the way.
The little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion had a sad voice.
"Your Majesty, there are assassins!!"
Although he wants to use this matter to calculate Li Xin, he still has to have the proportion, and the premise is that the Chengde Son of Heaven must not be in danger, so as soon as there was chaos here, Li Chun rushed in in a hurry.
"Your Majesty, there is an urgent report in Southern Xinjiang, there are Nanshu assassins, there are Nanshu assassins!!"
Li Chun has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his voice is naturally not small, and under this shout, it immediately resounded throughout the audience.
When those assassins heard this, their faces changed greatly, and they didn't know what to do, some assassins were in a hurry, and rushed directly in the direction of Chengde Tianzi, and before he could rush to the front, he was stabbed by a Yulin Wei with a knife!
Bloodstained on the spot!
This shocking change naturally caused chaos among the people present, and these ordinary people immediately scattered and fled, because there were too many people, and countless people trampled on each other.
This shout also alarmed the Chengde Son of Heaven and his party, and the great eunuch Chen Ju's face changed slightly, and he began to order the Yulin guards around him to protect His Majesty to retreat.
The third prince Ji Zhong reacted the fastest, and was the first to protect his father, and said loudly: "Father, I'm afraid there will be chaos here, my son is protecting you, go quickly!" ”
Among the many princes, this third prince is obsessed with martial arts, likes military books and war strategies, and has practiced kung fu himself, but he is short-tempered and will beat people to death at every turn.
Those who died in the hands of the third prince have at least dozens of people so far!
However, at this time, he gave full play to his strengths, and protected the Chengde Son of Heaven behind him to cover the retreat of the Chengde Son.
Li Chun, the little marquis of the Pingnan Hou Mansion, stumbled in front of the Chengde Emperor, knelt on the ground, and panted one after another: "Your Majesty...... Your Majesty, Li Chun received a secret report from his father from Southern Xinjiang that there were assassins from Nanshu who wanted to assassinate His Majesty! ”
Despite some changes, the face of the Son of Chengde did not change, he looked at Li Chun who was kneeling on the ground lightly, and said in a deep voice: "Li Shenmi, I should go to the official post and send it directly to me, how did I go to the Pingnan Hou Mansion?" ”
Li Chun knelt down and kowtowed, and hissed: "The situation is urgent, the official post is too slow, my father is afraid that it will be too late, so he asked the family to drive one person and three horses back to the capital, even so, it can be sent to the hands of the ministers!" ”
Chengde Tianzi nodded and accepted the statement.
At this time, those assassins in Nanshu had been discovered by Yu Linwei and were fighting with Yu Linwei, these people were all extraordinary people, knowing that the matter was exposed, after stabbing and stabbing a few Yu Linwei, a middle-aged man shouted and said sharply in a Bashu accent: "Go!" ”
The retreat plan, these assassins had obviously planned it in advance, and as soon as the leader spoke, a dozen or so people walked through the crowd and dispersed in all directions.
Li Chun knelt on the ground, his eyes glinting.
"Your Majesty, the generals of my Pingnan Hou Mansion are all good in the army, please allow Your Majesty to take the generals to assist the Yulin Army and arrest these bold bandits!"
At this moment, Emperor Chengde no longer had any smile, and the emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty looked indifferent, and said: "Go, don't let them run away, and there is no need to interrogate after being caught, and they will be directly pulled to Xishi tomorrow." ”
The Ji family's attitude towards assassins has always been like this, you come and I will kill one until you dare not come.
Li Chun kowtowed respectfully, then bent down and retreated, turned over his horse, and said coldly to the generals around him: "Follow this son, arrest the bandits!" ”
This group of generals from the Pingnan Hou Mansion were all veterans on the battlefield who had retreated, and they were all shocked when they heard the words, and shouted in unison: "Yes!" ”
These Nanshu assassins fled in four directions, and Li Chun rode on a horse, taking the lead with a group of generals, and chased towards the south.
Two of the Assassins fleeing in this direction were wounded.
A wicked smile appeared at the corner of Li Chun's mouth.
By now, his plan was ninety percent complete, and in an hour at most, he would be able to send that wild seed to the guillotine!
