Chapter 333: Suspicion

An assassination attempt ended in defeat. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

The Imperial Forest Army suffered heavy losses, more than 2,000 Royal Forest Army, with more than 800 casualties, and almost collapsed. The casualties of the sword-wielding guards in the palace were also unknown, and of the two hundred guards, seventy-eight were killed and sixty-three were wounded. Of the three old eunuchs who accompanied the little emperor Shi Chonggui to protect him, two were seriously injured and one was slightly injured.

It can be seen how dangerous the situation was at that time.

As for the palace maids and eunuchs who accompanied the car, there were many dead and wounded, and more than a dozen civil and military officials who accompanied the car were also killed or injured. Fortunately, the attackers did not target the important ministers of the DPRK and China, and the injuries of the civil and military ministers were not serious.

Because the attackers took as much of the body of their slashed companion as possible before leaving, very few of the Assassin's corpses were left at the scene, but the body of the Assassin who was shot by Li Fengyun with an arrow was found.

Some people recognized this person as a very famous Khitan condor archer.

The so-called Condor Shooter is an honorific title for the Marksman on the grassland, but anyone who can be called a Condor Shooter can wear Yang in a hundred steps. Although the Khitan is large, there are very few people who can be called condor shooters. At least, Li Fengyun has been fighting with the Khitan Iron Cavalry for so long, and this is the first time he has encountered it.

Knowing that this person turned out to be an eagle archer, everyone couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. If Li Fengyun had shot that arrow in a few breaths late, if Li Fengyun's luck was not surprisingly good, and Li Fengyun, who had mediocre archery skills, would have shot this condor archer twenty or thirty feet away like a ghost, then the result would have been unimaginable.

The dignified Emperor of the Jin Dynasty was attacked in the hunting ground, and there was a Khitan condor shooter among the participants, which was by no means a trivial matter. This hunt ended hastily, and under the protection of the Eight Thousand Wind and Cloud Guards, the little emperor Shi Chonggui returned to the palace in Kaifeng City.

Liu Chuanxun, the commander of Qianniuwei, who had already received the news, as well as Zhao Xun, the secretary of Dali Temple, and Yin Xu Changhao, the governor of Kaifeng Prefecture, knelt outside the Jinluan Palace.

"Hmph, they still have the face to see me!" Shi Chonggui, who had just returned to the court, had a blue face, "The edict ......"

"Your Majesty!" Zhang Qianzhong, who was waiting on the side, knew that the little emperor was impulsive, coughed lightly, and said, "It's time to use ginseng soup, ginseng soup won't taste good when it's cold!"

Shi Chonggui was stunned, waved away the other eunuchs, and asked with a calm face, "Big Companion, what do you want to say?"

Zhang Qianzhong hurriedly knelt down, his head on the ground: "The slave is just a eunuch, the court is a big event, the old slave doesn't dare to talk about it, please forgive the emperor!"

"I don't blame you, and there is no one else here, I told you to say it!" Shi Chonggui's face was gloomy and a little impatient.

"Emperor Xie, like this, the old slave has the courage to speak out!" Zhang Quanzhong leaned down and said, "The slave doesn't know what kind of big crime the three adults have committed, but there are not many people around the emperor who can be trusted!"

Shi Chonggui was silent for a long time before he said, "You mean that Li Fengyun is not credible?

Zhang Qianzhong's body trembled, and his body fell lower, almost touching the ground: "Slave, slave dare not say so, the life of the slave belongs to His Majesty, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, as long as it is related to the safety of the emperor, the slave will not hesitate." ”

In this hunt, Zhang Qianzhong also accompanied the driver, and when he was attacked, he repeatedly escorted him, although it did not play a role, but Shi Chonggui saw it in his eyes.

Shi Chonggui sighed and said slowly: "Get up, great companion, how can I not know the reason for your loyalty to me? If you don't tell me the truth, how can I trust anyone else? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Zhang Quanzhong got up from the ground tremblingly, hung his head and said, "The slave has heard two sentences: 'The wind knows the grass, and the board knows the honest minister.'" The minion felt reasonable. ”

Shi Chonggui nodded and said: "These are the two sentences of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty to evaluate Xiao Yu, yes, after this incident, I feel that Li Fengyun is still loyal to me, Fengyunwei is still credible, and Mo Qingyan is a rare good minister."

And Liu Chuanxun was derelict in his duties, he didn't care about my safety at all, and he didn't even find out about such a big thing, which is even more hateful, he actually planned to let go of the fire in Hexutang.

Zhao Xun's corpse was vegetarian and had no achievements, and three or four hundred assassins sneaked into Kaifeng, but he didn't know it. Moreover, he actually suppressed such a loyal and patriotic talent as Mo Qingyan all the way, and he was even more angry that he was in collusion with Liu Chuanxun and wanted to deceive Yu Zhen.

Xu Changhao's flies camp dogs, he only knows how to slap the horse, what is the use of the needle?"

Zhang Qianzhong said softly: "The emperor is right, the three adults are indeed wrong.

'The wind knows the strength of the grass, and the board knows the honest minister. It's okay to understand it from the other side.

The three lords are all loyal to the emperor, and they are the emperor's people! There are not many people in the court who are loyal to your majesty!

Although the three adults are incompetent, the important thing is that they did not betray the emperor's capital.

Although General Li is also loyal to the emperor. However, he shot that arrow at His Majesty, and if he missed the slightest, the consequences would ...... The old slave really didn't dare to think about it! Moreover, when he shot that arrow, no one around him could stop him. This is particularly frightening.

Although Fengyunwei also has a meritorious role in rescuing the driver, he is also too bold and reckless, and he mobilizes troops and horses without asking for orders...... What will happen?

The old slave heard that when General Dian sent troops, there were many opponents, but General Dian didn't say a word and imprisoned all the opponents. None of the soldiers in the battalion had any objections to General Dian, this ...... Is this still my Dajin Fengyunwei?

General Li led such a large army to crouch around the capital, and the old slave dared to think that this was the trouble of the henchmen......"

"That's enough!" Shi Chonggui was upset for a while, and shook his sleeves and said, "Could it be that General Li and Fengyunwei rescued the driver wrongly?"

"Yes!" Zhang Qianzhong didn't dare to continue.

Shi Chonggui felt extremely upset in his heart, and waved his hand: "You can go down too! ”

Zhang Qianzhong agreed, lowered his head and walked out of the hall.

“...... He shot that arrow at His Majesty......"

“...... No one could stop him......"

“...... It is too bold to move troops and horses without asking for orders......"

"What if you come to Japan...... What will happen?"

"This ...... Is this still my Great Jin Fengyunwei?"

......

Although Zhang Qianzhong withdrew from the hall, his words kept lingering in Shi Chonggui's ears, making the little emperor upset for a while.

Zhang Qianzhong is right.

Li Fengyun shot that arrow without hesitation, and although he killed the condor archer, it was also possible to hit him. The little emperor vividly remembered the indescribable horror of the arrow passing over his head.

Yes, Li Fengyun may be loyal to him now, but maybe not, when Li Fengyun shot that arrow, he didn't hesitate at all, did he have the emperor in his heart? Did he think that if this arrow missed the slightest, he might shoot him, the emperor?

Moreover, Li Fengyun has the courage to be unstoppable.

If one day he has a different heart, what should he use to restrain him?

There is also the Fengyun Battalion, this time it is to save Shi Chonggui, but the premise is to completely ignore the law and discipline, in another way, to do whatever he wants. What's even more serious is that the people sent by Shi Chonggui into Fengyunwei did not play a restraining role at all, how can such a force be controlled?

How useful is an uncontrolled force, no matter how powerful it is, to oneself?

Shi Chonggui suddenly remembered what the first emperor had said to him before he died:

"The loyalty of a courtier is needed, but it is unreliable to rely solely on the loyalty of a courtier, because loyalty can change at any time with changes in interests and feelings. The most betrayal is often the most faithful person. ”

"The threat of a courtier is not measured by his loyalty, but by his strength. If his strength is beyond his control, then no matter how loyal this courtier is, he must take measures.

Because, no one is static.

He may be faithful now, but what about the future? It's hard to say where he stands. ”

......

With a wave of his hand, Shi Chonggui swept all the things on the table to the ground.
