Chapter 217: Li Hao's assassination

"Newspapers?" Li Shimin frowned when he heard this, and asked suspiciously, "What is this?" Li Shimin knew the role of Qian Zhuang, after all, the secret agent mentioned in the secret report that Li Hao opened a Qian Zhuang in Tingzhou.

Li Hao immediately told Li Shimin about the role of the newspaper, and Li Shimin didn't have much reaction after listening to it, feeling that the newspaper was just a publication to entertain the people. Li Hao saw that his reaction was cold, and he was secretly happy in his heart, so he hit the railway while it was hot: "Weichen only has this little wish, I hope Your Majesty will approve it." ”

Li Shimin raised his eyebrows and said: "You can do it if you want to, why do you need to be gracious?" ”

Li Hao sighed helplessly, and slowly shook his head: "A business, no matter how profitable it is, it has to be destroyed by no one, Weichen's reputation is not very good, I am afraid that someone will be red when they see Weichen making a fortune." ”

Li Shimin twisted his eyebrows when he heard this, and remembered Li Chengqian, Li Chengqian is his most valued son and prince, and Li Hao is the younger generation he values the most, although Li Hao is not as close as his son, but he still doesn't want the two to conflict again, he pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Then I will give you two sides of the golden plaque, now you should rest assured." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!" Li Hao was excited to thank him, because he knew that the newspaper and the money bank were really too important to him.

Looking at Li Hao's excited appearance, Li Shimin was not happy, he became more and more unable to understand Li Hao, when he was guarding Tingzhou, how heroic Li Hao was, when it came to making money, Li Hao's performance was a philistine, and he didn't know what the festival was.

Li Shimin was worried again, and asked slowly: "Poetry madness, if it is any day, I will control the dragon and bury the sky......

Li Hao was shocked when he heard this, and hurriedly bowed his head: "Your Majesty won't ......"

"Everyone will die, I will naturally not be an exception, if I am dead, you will still ......" Li Shimin suddenly stopped in the middle of speaking, and the last sentence was never asked.

Li Hao naturally guessed what he was going to ask, and said solemnly: "Weichen is still the same sentence, Weichen is born as a Tang Dynasty, and death is the soul of the Tang Dynasty." He said it very religiously, but Li Shimin didn't hear what he really meant, Li Hao meant to be loyal to the Tang Dynasty and his own nation, not to any emperor.

"Good...... Okay......" Li Shimin nodded again and again, turned back to the throne and sat down, and slowly arrived, "I will let you be lazy for a few more years, if you dare to be so lazy at that time, I will have to kill you!" ”

Li Hao's eyebrows twitched, and he reluctantly gave his hand: "Weichen obeys the order." ”

Li Shimin waved his hand: "Okay, you can step aside." ”

"Wechen retired." Li Hao withdrew from the Ganlu Palace, and came to the Chengtian Gate under the leadership of the eunuchs, the guards guarding the city did not open the door, and a Jin Wuwei rushed over with a torch in his hand, shouting under the Chengtian Gate: "Pass the emperor's will, open the Chengtian Gate, and let the Marquis of Lantian County out of the palace!" As he spoke, he raised the communication token in his hand. The general who defended the city personally came to check the token, and after confirming that it was correct, he ordered the city gate to be opened.

That Jin Wuwei saluted Li Hao: "Hou Ye Li, there is already a curfew at this moment, and I am ordered to send Hou Ye out of the city." ”

"There's General Law." Li Hao nodded, his official position is civilian, and he has a knighthood, so in the face of these four or five rank military officials, his identity is higher than that of the other party, and he cannot be saluted, otherwise it will make the other party very embarrassed.

Li Hao went out of Chengtianmen under the leadership of Jin Wuwei, just out of Chengtianmen, vaguely saw a person kneeling in front of him, stepped forward to see, it turned out to be Hou Junji, Hou Junji heard the footsteps and looked up at him, the two looked at each other, and they were quite embarrassed. is also the general manager of the march to conquer Gaochang, but Li Shimin's treatment of them is like a world of difference, not only does he not have any reward, but he even knelt here for nearly two hours, Li Shimin did not even summon him, Hou Junji knew that he might be unlucky.

Li Hao only glanced at Hou Junji, raised his head and continued to move forward, it was still the same principle, and he did not have any intersection with him.

More than 100 meters behind Hou Junji, a few people stood there with their horses, and when they got closer, they saw that it was Chen Bin and his three most proud lieutenants.

Seeing Li Hao coming, Chen Bin stepped forward and saluted: "Humble to meet Master Li." ”

Li Hao nodded and asked, "What about the others?" ”

Chen Bin said: "General Peng has returned to Youxiaowei, Li Yuanzhong has received the transfer and has also returned to the Jinwuwei camp, and the others have been sent back to Lord Li's house by His Majesty. ”

"Give me a ride?" Hearing this, Li Hao took a step back, glared and exclaimed, "Who instructed you?" ”

Chen Bin looked confused, shook his head and said: "No one instructs, after the first battle of Gaochang, I humbly admire the demeanor of adults, so I want to send adults away, if you want to meet in the future, it will be difficult." ”

"You were going to take me home." Li Hao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, rolled his eyes, and said angrily, "You really can't speak, it's shocking." ”

Chen Bin: ......

Coming to the Mingde Gate, the accompanying Jin Wuwei took out the pass token, asked the general of the city gate guard to open the city gate, and then arched his hand and said: "Hou Ye Li, I can only send you here, take care all the way." ”

Li Hao waved his hand: "Don't worry, General Chen's martial arts are extraordinary, and his three subordinates are not idle people, and they are very safe to escort them." ”

Hearing this, Jin Wuwei saluted again: "In this way, retire from your humble position, Master Li, goodbye!" General Chen, goodbye! ”

"Goodbye." Chen Bin and the others returned the salute, and Jin Wuwei turned to leave.

Li Hao's lion skull has been sent back to Lantian home, and now he is riding the horse that Chen Bin gave him, out of Mingde Gate, there is the sound of insects chirping everywhere, Chen Bin and the four of them also turned over on their horses and escorted Li Hao home.

Walking along the official road for more than 20 miles, Li Hao sighed with emotion, this way, stumbling, the official road is still like this, the trail must be even more unbearable, there is a good saying, if you want to get rich, build the road first, it seems that if you want to make the people of the Tang Dynasty rich, building the road is a must, but he can't rush to repair the road for the time being. After all, building roads is a national policy, and he has not yet officially entered the political circle of the court, so he can't act arrogantly, otherwise it is easy to fall into the hands of others, besides, he recently opened a newspaper and a money bank, and his actions are a bit big, so he should be restrained and can't be in the limelight anymore.

Li Hao moved forward with his heart all the way, and gradually, farmland appeared on both sides of the road, and it was the height of summer, and the sound of frogs in the field "croaking" came and went, which shook people's ear drums.

At this moment, five swarthy iron soars suddenly shot out, all of them hitting Li Hao, three hitting Li Hao's heart, lower abdomen and shoulders, and the other two hitting his eyebrows and throat.

It was already difficult to prevent a sneak attack with a hidden weapon, not to mention that it was night, and the sound of frogs around was still so loud, even if Chen Bin and Chen Chao were next to Li Hao, they didn't react.

Fortunately, Li Hao's reaction speed is far beyond ordinary people, when the dart is only more than a meter away from his face, he found it, and decisively leaned back, dodging the four higher iron darts, the lowest iron dart hit him in the abdomen, fortunately, he was wearing the silver armor rewarded by Li Shimin, and his protective ability was amazing, but even so, he still felt a pain in his abdomen, and he had been injured by the iron dart, and let out a soft cry of "ah".

"What people!" Chen Bin and the others reacted immediately, quickly protected Li Hao in the middle, and raised their spears to look around, extremely vigilant.

Li Hao took the opportunity to pull out the iron dart in his abdomen, looked at it in front of him, and immediately frowned, this was actually the dart used by the silver fox, and it was her again!

Li Hao gritted his teeth in anger, covered the wound in his abdomen, raised his head and scolded: "Silver fox, are you a nervous disorder!" Lao Tzu is saving you again! Let you go again! You're going to kill me! Come on! Let's kill Lao Tzu! You'd better not fall into the hands of Lao Tzu, otherwise Lao Tzu will strip you naked and explode you a hundred times! ”

As soon as the words fell, a black shadow suddenly appeared in the farmland, and under the moonlight, the silver light flickered, and a sharp sword stabbed towards Li Hao.

"The rats give the head!" Chen Bin shouted, the spear was picked up, and the sword of the silver fox was swept away, and it was a stab, the action was extremely simple, without any fancy moves, but there was one characteristic - fast, Chen Bin's shot was very fast, not only that, but the transformation of each of his movements was like a smooth flow, so it was faster.

The silver fox tilted his body, stretched out his hand and grabbed the barrel of the gun, pulled it violently, and flew towards Chen Bin, stepped on Chen Bin's horse's head with one foot, and stabbed the long sword in his hand into Chen Bin's chest.

Two spears were picked up again, Chen Xiangyu picked up the silver fox's long sword with one shot, Chen Chao stabbed the silver fox at the waist with one shot, and Zhang Qingle protected Li Hao in front of him to prevent the enemy from sneaking attack.

The silver fox was blocked by Chen Xiangyu and Chen Chao, so he naturally lost the opportunity to attack Chen Bin, and wanted to go back to kill Li Hao, but found that Zhang Qingle was guarding in front of Li Hao and had no chance at all.

She also realized that these four people were not simple, not only were they all superb in martial arts, but also extremely tacit understanding, the four of them were like one between attack and defense, with them, she couldn't kill Li Hao at all, so he decisively withdrew and escaped into the farmland.

Chen Bin hurriedly dismounted and came to Li Haoma, and asked nervously, "My lord, how are your injuries?" ”

Li Hao waved his hand: "It's just a skin injury, it's not in the way, it's a loss to be protected by the armor rewarded by His Majesty, otherwise if this dart pierces into my abdomen, I'm afraid it will be difficult to take it out." ”

Chen Bin felt a little relieved when he heard this, and said: "My lord, the future is uncertain, I am afraid that there will be another ambush, so it is better for us to return to Chang'an." ”

"Not necessarily." Li Hao said firmly, "Back to Lantian, this assassin has always acted alone, and this time she missed, she won't make another move for the time being." ”

"Yes." Chen Bin's head ordered, turned over and got on the horse, and the four of them protected Li Hao in the middle and headed towards Lantian.

Just when Li Hao left Chang'an, Xu Lian ran into the Ganlu Hall and knelt on the ground to report: "Your Majesty, Hou Junji is still kneeling outside the Taiji Palace. ”

"If he wants to kneel, let him kneel." Li Shimin's tone turned cold, and he said, "If it weren't for his past military exploits and years of affection, I really wanted to kill him with one sword!" ”

Xu Lian lowered his head, didn't dare to speak, and only listened to Li Shimin say slowly: "Connived at the soldiers under his command to loot Gaochang City, causing more than 10,000 casualties among the people of Gaochang, and now the envoys of various countries have asked for impeachment, which is simply scorching on the stove, not only that......"

Li Shimin suddenly gritted his teeth, and said in a cold tone: "I haven't died yet, he started to help the prince with his errands, deliberately delaying the trip and not rescuing Li Hao, this alone is enough for me to cut off his head ten times!" ”

Xu Lian was shocked when he heard this, and finally learned that Li Shimin was angry about this matter, not that Li Shimin loved Li Hao, but that Li Shimin hated party fighting, and the princes competed for favor, he could accept it, but he did not allow the minister to interfere, if anyone interfered, it was a taboo, Hou Junji helped the prince deal with Li Hao this time, so it is very likely to help the prince deal with King Wei next time.

Parents can tolerate their two children quarreling, which is harmless, but if two children call for helpers to beat each other, parents will definitely not accept it, and this is the truth.
