"Bang, Bang"

On the obscure Chang'an Street, there was a sound of watching.

"It's dry, be careful of the candle ......"

When an old and vigorous shout was heard, a finch flew over the ridge beside him.

"Whew"

The birds fluttered their wings and merged into the night breeze without attracting attention.

And the flock of birds crossed Chang'an Street, flew over the palace wall, and under the strict monitoring of the Praetorian Guards on duty and the patrol of the interior, they blatantly flew to resist the roof of the study and landed.

The peculiarity of it is that Xiaohua will only flock birds in person, and scatter to find out the garrison of the Praetorian Guard.

When the guards outside the imperial study changed the guard, Xiaohua stood on the ridge of the roof and folded her wings and pointed downward, then retracted and made a movement to wipe her neck, and whispered: "Go according to plan, kill!" ”

"Woohoo"

The owls surrounding it quickly split down.

The rest of the flowers watched as they flapped their wings and flew away, a cold glow reflected on their claws.

It was a dagger tied to a sharp claw in advance, and it reflected the cold light through the light of the palace lamp below.

It didn't feel anything for it, but it was disgusted.

But it didn't have time to think about it, so it immediately pecked off the small black bag tied to its ankle, carefully rested it on the ridge, and then left a meter away, and uncovered the tile a foot below the ridge.

The movements are light, quite like a veteran.

At this moment, there was a strange noise below.

"Poof, ah, there's an assassin ......"

It didn't need to look, it also knew that the flock of birds had succeeded in killing the guards, but it had also failed.

This startled it, and saw the little brothers fly back one after another, four of them flew with a crossbow in their beaks, and the two little brothers behind them took a crossbow arrow, and reprimanded angrily: "Waste ......"

"Boss, it's not our fault that we missed the attack, the main thing is that the Praetorian Guards are all masters......"

"It's just, boss, you don't know, the Praetorian Guard is very vigilant......"

"Don't talk about it, act quickly, otherwise you won't be able to complete the task, and the sin will be great......"

"Nonsense, we attacked and missed, and the grass startled the snake, and the two balls didn't run away......"

"Shut up, if the second ball is assassinated, you will only shrink in the imperial study and wait for the Praetorian Guards to gather to rescue you, and you will not escape.

Why don't you get the arrows of your crossbow bolts out of the bag and mount them on the crossbow to prepare for shooting, what are you waiting for? ”

Seeing the little brothers yelling blindly, Xiaohua angrily pointed at each of the little brothers with her wings and reprimanded, secretly thinking, when you go back, you are cleaning up these goods that are not enough to succeed and more than to fail.

At this moment, there was a mess below.

"There are assassins, rescue, rescue......"

"Where are the Praetorian Guards, if you don't come to the rescue, you are waiting for death......"

The eunuch surrounded the emperor behind the table in the imperial study, and looked out in horror and shouted.

This is the Praetorian Guard on duty outside, and the warning issued when they are dying alarms them and staged a rescue drama.

Curiously, the Praetorian guards outside died, but the assassins disappeared as well.

Until a team of Praetorian Guards arrived in the Imperial Study, there was no sign of the Assassin, but they were ignored by everyone.

"The emperor forgives the sins, and it will be too late to save ......"

Commander Li was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty in a cold sweat.

For the emperor's safety, he ran over as soon as possible.

On the way, he ignored the panicked Praetorian Guards, and did not check the subordinates who died outside the imperial study, and was concerned about the emperor's safety, so he was almost frightened.

Li Shimin sat on the chair and trembled, his face turned white with fright, and when he saw him coming, his face turned white and angry, and he was about to stand up and get angry, when he suddenly felt that death was approaching......

"Huh"

A bolt of bolt came down from the roof.

Like lightning, it flashed in a flash.

He has experienced the tempering of the battlefield of life and death, and has a sense of early warning of the death crisis, but it is too late to avoid it.

However, the eunuchs who served him had some skill.

Coupled with the round-faced eunuch Xiao Yuanzi, he happened to breathe a sigh of relief, and raised his head to find the trajectory of the crossbow arrow.

Xiao Yuanzi immediately pushed the emperor away and blocked the arrow with his body: "Your Majesty, it's dangerous... Ahh

Around this, he only pushed the emperor half a step away, and failed to completely avoid the fatal arrow.

The crossbow arrow shot through the emperor's right shoulder from top to bottom, and then shot into the heart of Xiaoyuanzi.

Fortunately, the crossbow bolt was shot diagonally, otherwise he would have been killed in the first place.

"Help, there's an assassin on the roof......"

"Damn it, Praetorian Guard, catch the assassins......"

The eunuch exclaimed, and Commander Li soared from the ground, went straight to the beams of the room, stabbed with his knife, and shouted to catch the assassin.

"Poof, whoa"

All at once it was a mess.

Just as he pierced the tile leaf and set off a burst of broken tiles, Xiaohua flew high with a flock of birds, and also ushered in the pursuit of the Praetorian Guard.

Unfortunately, the Praetorian Guards rushed to the top of the roof and lost sight of the Assassins.

"Report, Lord Commander, there is no shadow of an assassin on the roof, only a crossbow ......"

"It's not good, this crossbow is clearly the equipment we have configured......"

"Shut up, you can't talk nonsense like this......"

"Your Majesty, the last general ......"

"Bold, the assassin used the crossbow of the Praetorian Guard to attack and kill me, do you still have the face to explain?"

Seeing that Commander Li flew down the beam of the room to defend himself, Li Shimin ignored the eunuch to clean the wound on his shoulder, and angrily pointed at him and scolded him, I almost died?

Could it be that someone bought off the Praetorian Guard and waited for an opportunity to attack and kill me?

This is the Praetorian Guard I have cultivated?

"Your Majesty, the last general is guilty, but please ask the emperor to investigate this case thoroughly, otherwise the last general will die!"

Commander Li knelt on the ground and said angrily and terrified.

And Xiao Yuanzi, who fell beside him with cramps, vomited black blood in his mouth, coughed and said: "Emperor, Emperor, there is poisonous ...... on the arrow"

"What, poisonous, quickly pass on the imperial doctor, quickly and quickly ......"

Commander Li jumped up in fright, ignoring etiquette, and turned to the outside of the imperial study and shouted.

With his voice, the Praetorian Guards were completely confused, shouting and rushing.

In the chaotic and noisy atmosphere, Li Shimin sat on the ground with a dead face, feeling the fiery pain brought by the wound, and gritted his teeth and said: "Check, I limit you to find out this case within a stick of incense!" ”

"The last general will thank you!"

Instead of feeling frightened, Commander Li felt a hint of joy, knelt down in thanksgiving, and rushed out of the imperial study.

The rest of Li Shimin was waiting for death in a trembling state, and when he saw the painful appearance of Xiao Yuanzi, who was spitting black blood from his mouth and struggling on the line of death, the whole person was trembling: "Who, who is going to harm me?" ”

"Your Majesty, please forgive the slaves for their courage, this matter must be related to the usurper of the dynasty......"

Xiao Yuanzi was unwilling to die, and said with pain.

These words stimulated Li Shimin's heart, and he said in disbelief: "Could it be him, he just wants me to die......"

"Report, Your Majesty, General Wei Chi sent someone into the palace to rescue ......"

"Xuan, I want to see how Wei Chigong can save the driver?"

Hearing that the Praetorian Guards were reporting outside the door, Li Shimin regained his dignity, stood up in pain, sat on a chair and said.

"Rustle"

General Wu Bi hurriedly entered the imperial study, bowed his head and knelt on the ground to play: "Your Majesty, the last general was ordered to save the late ......."

"To the point, how did you know I was assassinated?"

"Back to the emperor, we didn't know in advance that the emperor was assassinated, but the civil and military minister of the eldest grandson Wuji and his party passed on the emperor's edict and ordered the three armies to attack the Wuliang Palace.

General Wei Chi suspiciously rejected them, and was assassinated shortly after their departure.

In this regard, General Wei Chi felt that this incident was unusual and sent the last general into the palace to rescue him.

On the way, someone attacked and killed the eldest grandson Wuji and his party who were protecting the spirit, and it was said that the eldest grandson Wuji was a fake......"

"What, impostor, how can this be ......"
