On the street of Fu'an, hundreds of black panther soldiers dressed in armor and draped shoulders lined up intensively under the wind and snow, one by one with solemn expressions, bows and arrows, ready to attack. The thirty cavalry warriors in the front row lined up, with crossbows and bows in their hands, and aimed at the entrance of the small street.

The atmosphere was tense to the extreme, and it was on the verge of eruption.

The tiger shooter held a horned bow in his hand, and the arrow was pointed at Cao Cao, who was in the lead, and Leng Sensen shouted loudly: "Take down the assassin!" ”

Cao Cao was shocked, and while pulling the reins hard to stop the galloping war horse, he shouted in a panic: "Slow, slow, slow, we are not assassins, we are not assassins......"

Sun Jian's war horse was in pain, and suddenly stopped in place and raised its hooves and neighed, its huge body almost stood upright, and Sun Jian on the horse raised his hand and shouted: "Don't shoot arrows, don't shoot arrows, the assassin is on the run......"

Shooting the tiger was unmoved, his sword eyebrows were raised, and he shouted again in a deep voice: "Put down your weapon, kneel on the ground and bind, otherwise you will be killed!" ”

Xu Gen was so anxious that he almost jumped up, he rushed to the corner of the street out of breath, pointed at the majestic black panther righteous servant, and shouted angrily: "Get out of the way for me, otherwise the Nine Clans will be killed!" ”

Several Ti cavalry warriors standing in the front row were furious when they heard this, and they all raised their crossbows and aimed them at Xu Gen, and at the same time shouted: "My lord, kill them......

"Kill ......"

Shooting the tiger spoke out three times without thinking: "Let it go...... Under...... Military...... ......"

The strong murderous aura suddenly reached the extreme, and the cold wind that was raging at the corner of the street seemed to be unable to endure this suffocating murderous aura, and fled in a hurry. In the face of a full strong bow, a cold sharp arrow, and a pair of angry eyes, no one did not feel fear. As long as the young officer gave an order, he would immediately shoot like locusts, and ten thousand arrows would fly together, and he would die in Huangquan.

Xu Gen's heart was cold, and he suddenly shuddered, his arrogant arrogance suddenly disappeared, and a cold sweat broke out all over his body, he involuntarily shrank his neck, and quietly hid behind Sun Jian's horse.

Yuan Shu led the iron horses of the Changshui Battalion to rampage through the streets, showing off their might, and the panicked crowd fled in all directions, trampling on each other and trampling on countless injuries. They quickly dispersed the crowd and rode their horses into the side streets, "catching the assassins...... Capture the Assassin ......"

Sun Jian was in a hurry, and pulled off the copper seal and black ribbon on his body and held it high, "I am Sun Jian, the speaker of this dynasty, not an assassin......

Shooting Tiger tilted his head and looked at it, pursed his lips, ignored Sun Jian's shout, and slowly aimed the long arrow in his hand at him.

At this time, Li Hong suddenly appeared in people's field of vision with more than a dozen horses.

"Lord Li, Lord Li." Cao Cao was overjoyed, raised his hand and shouted: "Hurry up and order your subordinates to retreat, we are going to chase the assassins, the bride has been robbed." ”

Li Hong rode his horse unhurriedly, he looked at the crowd crowded at the corner of the street, and said with a smile: "The assassins in Luoyang are really rampant, in broad daylight, they first assassinated me, and this time they robbed the bride of Lord Sikong's family, and they are lawless." ”

He turned around and waved his hand at the black panther Yicong, and ordered loudly: "It's all your own people, don't be nervous." Remove your bows and arrows and go separately to help in the search. Fast...... Go ......."

The black panther retracted his bow when he heard the sound, and his movements were neat and uniform, and he appeared to be well-trained and amazingly imposing. As soon as the danger was gone, the murderous aura that shrouded the street suddenly disappeared, and everyone invariably took a long breath of cool air, and the fear of the black panther became more and more fearful in their hearts.

Xu Gen and the Xiahou brothers rushed out of the street with a group of family members at the fastest speed, and the shooting tiger and several teams led the team to follow closely behind, and hurriedly rushed into the snowstorm.

Cao Cao sat on his horse and did not move, his eyes fixed on Li Hong, as if he wanted to see something in his face.

Li Hong didn't care, drove his horse to Cao Cao, and said with a smile: "Brother Mengde, the wind and snow are too big today, and the assassin is premeditated, I don't think I can catch it." Then he glanced at Cao Cao strangely, touched his face with his hand, and asked, "Do I have anything on my face?" ”

Cao Cao nodded, smiled, and said, "What a coincidence." ”

"Brother Meng De has something to say." Li Hong smiled, "You are staring at me so fiercely, you won't think I'm an assassin, right?" ”

"My lord laughed." Cao Cao denied it, but his eyes did not shy away from revealing deep suspicion.

"Didn't you go to Jizhou on order? How did you come back again? Sun Jian asked puzzled. Li Hong's elite troops appeared on another street so coincidentally, one could not help but suspect that he and Yuan Shu were colluding.

"Before the troops were drawn up at noon today, Lord Yuan and Lord He suddenly asked for leave to return to the city, I thought they had something urgent, so I casually agreed." Li Hong explained, "Later, I heard that they had come to the city to seek revenge. I was taken aback and hurried into the city to call them back. By coincidence, we met here. ”

Yuan Shu and He Feng came galloping at this time.

"Your Excellency, you've worked hard." Yuan Shu arched his hand and smiled, "Lord Lao is concerned, so I came to answer in person." ”

Li Hong smiled: "Lord Yuan, Lord He, is the revenge over?" ”

"Happy, I'm finally completely relieved today." He Feng laughed and said, "Xu Hezi dog has been unable to get along with us, this time the bride was robbed, he cried, haha......"

Suddenly, he pointed his finger at Li Hong and shouted, "Your Excellency is an assassin!" ”

Cao Cao and Sun Jian were shocked when they heard this, and looked at Li Hong at the same time. Li Hong's face was as usual, and he shook his head again and again with a smile, "What a madman, what kind of bastard are you talking about." ”

"Just now the family of the Cao Mansion said that an assassin called me a leopard, haha......" He Feng laughed wildly, "This assassin is a big idiot, who believes it?" ”

＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝＝

Cao Cao was heartbroken that his men had been killed, and in a fit of rage, he led people to hunt down the assassins.

He originally thought that with more than 200 Ding in the Xu Mansion and the Cao Mansion, it would definitely not be a problem to ensure that the bride arrived safely in the Xu Mansion, but he never expected that in just a few breaths, he would not only lose the bride, but also lose dozens of brothers, which was too much of a bag. If it weren't for the fact that Yuan Shu had a lot of people, he really wanted to stab him with a knife.

Sun Jian estimated that the time was so delayed, the assassin would have fled a long time ago, Luoyang is so big, where to find it? He was in a bad mood and walked listlessly on Fu'an Street with a few of his subordinates, at a loss. The teacher must have been heartbroken when he learned the bad news. When he went out, he swore to the teacher, patted his chest and said that he would ensure Xiao Lan's safety, but now it's good, Xiao Lan doesn't know whether she is alive or dead, where do you have the face to see the teacher.

"Brother Wentai ......"

Sun Jian looked back and saw that it was Li Hong calling him. Li Hong came with dozens of horsemen like a whirlwind. Sun Jian patted his horse and greeted him.

"Your Excellency is leaving the city?" Sun Jian asked.

"Yes, the large army has already set off at noon, and I will catch up immediately." Li Hong said with a smile, "As soon as it gets dark, all my troops will leave the city." Now Lord Yuan and the Black Panther Yicong are still helping to search for the assassins, and Lord Zhao, the captain of the city gate, is also leading the soldiers to patrol the city to conduct door-to-door inspections in the area of Yongping Street and Fu'an Street. ”

Sun Jian sighed sadly and did not make a sound.

"Brother Wentai, farewell here, we don't know if there is a later meeting, you take care." Li Hong stretched out his hand, held Sun Jian's big hand tightly, and said generously.

Sun Jian smiled indifferently and said, "My lord, you should be the one who takes care of yourself." As long as you and I don't die, there will always be a day when we will meet. ”

Li Hong patted his arm gratefully and said with a smile: "Thank you, Brother Wentai." When Brother Wentai saw Lord Zhu, he asked him to tell him, and said that Xiaolan was safe and everything was fine. ”

Sun Jian was suddenly frightened and looked at Li Hong with wide eyes.

Li Hong smiled slightly, leaned over to Sun Jian's ear, and whispered, "Brother Wentai, please look behind me." ”

Sun Jian's heart beat violently twice, and he slowly looked up.

Several knights behind Li Hong turned their horses out of the way in turn, revealing Li Wei in armor. Li Weixi smiled and raised his hand. Then Sun Jian saw Xiao Lan in uniform. Xiao Lan was wearing a battle helmet and heavy armor, and her posture was heroic, if it wasn't for Li Wei's side, Sun Jian wouldn't have recognized it at all, it was Xiao Lan, who was born beautiful.

Xiao Lan bowed slightly, lightly opened her lips, and shouted in a low voice: "Brother Wentai......"

Sun Jian was ecstatic, and in an instant he understood everything.

At night, the Xu Mansion was very quiet and silent. The guests came and went in joy and dissipated, and they had long since dispersed.

In the study, Xu Xiang, who looked depressed, sighed and said happily: "After all, I still haven't escaped this catastrophe." ”

"Who are Yuan Shu and He Feng? Yuan Shu led people to pick quarrels and provoke troubles, and he must have made arrangements for a long time. Fan Ling sneered, "The Great General is deliberately trying to destroy our relationship with several marquis in the palace, intending to weaken the power of the lieutenant officials. His trick is inevitably too obvious. ”

"Why aren't there a few marquis?" Sikong Mansion's chief Shi Shan said, "Recently, we have been in contact with the Great General's Mansion, Yuan Valve, and Yang Valve, and with the recent actions of the two gentlemen, the princes in the palace have already suspected that the lord has betrayed him. The lieutenants have always been vicious and vicious, and it is not surprising that they did such a thing at this time, and their purpose is nothing more than to warn the adults not to have different intentions. ”

Fan Ling immediately retorted: "It's impossible, isn't it self-defeating for the marquis to use this kind of subordinate strategy?" Gongsuke, you must not be fooled, the general just wants you to think so, so as to achieve the goal of completely splitting us. In the future, he will be able to break us down without much effort. ”

"Maybe it's Yang Valve." Sima Zhang Xin of Sikong Mansion said, "On that day, Yang Valve and Fu Valve who advocated the study of modern literature and scriptures lost very badly, and they were angry and angry, and they may use this kind of third-rate means to retaliate against us. The bride was robbed, life and death were uncertain, and happy events turned into bad things, which dealt a big blow to the prestige of our Xu Valve. ”

Xu Xiang shook his head and looked at Cao Cao, who was sitting silently on the side.

"Mengde, what do you say?"

"It can't be Yang Valve, Yang Valve doesn't have such strong strength, I think it was His Majesty's doing." Cao Cao's words were astonishing.

Everyone looked at Cao Cao in disbelief.

"I thought about it for a long time, and I felt that today's thing was done by the leopard Li Hong." Cao Cao said hatefully, "The eight assassins in the afternoon are all martial arts masters. If these eight people were all assassins invited by the Great General, why didn't the Great General send these eight people to assassinate Li Hong on the seventh day of the first lunar month? If these eight people assassinate Li Hong, let him Li Hong have the ability to reach the sky, it will be a dead end. ”

"Li Hong and Yuan Shu appeared in Luoyang City at almost the same time, one was causing trouble on Yongping Street for no reason to attract our attention, and the other was covering with the camera on Fu'an Street next door with troops. After their assassins kidnapped the bride, they fled to Fu'an Street, where they fled under the cover of the Black Panther's followers. It's all arranged seamlessly. ”

"Why did Your Majesty use this strategy?" Cao Cao looked at the people in the room and sneered, "Your Majesty uses this trick to make Lord Sikong suspect that this matter is the work of various forces in Luoyang, whether it is a general, a lieutenant or a gate valve, and in the end?" In the end, Lord Sikong and these people all turned against each other, and with the power of their Xu Valve, they quickly cultivated a new force in Luoyang. The more forces in Luoyang, the more dispersed the forces become, who is the most beneficial? Your Majesty, of course. ”

Everyone in the room was silent in thought.

"What reason does Li Hong have to pretend to be an assassin and take the bride? What's in it for him to do this kind of thing? Since Li Hong has no reason to do it, who instructed him to do it? There is no one to command him except the Son of Heaven. Cao Cao paused for a moment and continued, "Your Majesty asked Li Hong to come to Jizhou today, and I always felt that something was wrong. Why do you have to go to Jizhou on the 16th day of the first lunar month? Wouldn't it be okay to postpone it for a few days? It turns out that His Majesty has a plan. ”

"If you don't believe it, tomorrow you can jointly impeach Li Hong and Yuan Shu for violating military discipline and going back to the city to seek revenge and cause trouble, and you will see if Your Majesty will protect you? If His Majesty tries to protect it, it is certain that His Majesty did it. ”

Fan Ling shook his head and said with appreciation: "Meng De has a point. ”

"If Meng De's idea is right, then, Lord Zhu's daughter must be in Li Hong's army now?" Shan Yi thought for a moment and asked.

"Of course." Cao Cao said, "Li Wei, the Zuojun Sima Li Wei in Li Hongjun, is a disciple of Lord Zhu, in addition, the few beings who Li Hong was going to leave from Taixue two days ago are all disciples of Lord Zhu, you can think about it, Lord Zhu's protégé is now so popular in Li Hongjun, how could his daughter have an accident?" ”
