Chapter 515 Yun Yong (15)

After a assassination that was striking east and west, although all three assassins were killed and failed to touch the imperial envoy, everyone was a little scared. There were only three assassins, but they almost almost killed the life of a general under the escort of the army. Such courage and such mysterious and meticulous behavior are really chilling.

Of course, those who know the origin of these people are only talking about a few people. Most of the bandits know that only those demon sects can use such methods. The demon sects have been hiding in the world for many years, and it seems that these are the dead soldiers who were famous in the world back then. I just don’t know how many such demon sects are. If there are too many, everyone should be careful of their heads.

When encountering such an accident, although the Han River was right in front of me, the team stopped and simply set up the camp, the warning was even more strict. The left guard of Yulin even protected the central army's tents tightly, and the commander was assassinated among the sanitation army, and almost suffered a murderous attack. This was undoubtedly a shameless face for all the left guards.

"Sir, Xiao Qing's knife is painted with poison, but fortunately it didn't hurt him, otherwise... the guards are not strong and willing to be under the military law of the Lord... There is nothing important about them, but these signs are a bit special." Wang Lan said as he handed over the wooden signs found on the assassins. His expression on his face was also ugly. The commander was assassinated in the army. As the commander, he was unprepared for no reason. How could he feel at ease?

Zhao Shi was sitting in the tent with expressionless expression on his face, with the generals standing around him, and the atmosphere was a little stagnant. Even Zhang Sizhong, who was careless on weekdays and seemed to have nothing to worry about, frowned at this time...

When the Jianmen was lost, Zhao Shi's unexpected decision immediately turned back to Jinzhou.

Although Zhao Shi did not explain the reason to them, they were all generals in the army. How could they not know where the joints were located? The imperial envoy was attacked halfway, and it was not done by ordinary bandits at all. Then there was news of the loss of the Jianmen. How could there be no connection between them?

However, not everyone praised the decision to turn back Jinzhou immediately. Lizhou Prefecture is close to you, so I can avoid it for a while. I think that although Jianmen is lost and the situation is quite strange, it is just a dying struggle of the Later Shu. As long as the army arrives, it will not be the end of collapse?

But Zhao Shi was the imperial envoy who upheld the Emperor Ming Dynasty. He had fought with bandits before and captured more than ten thousand alive. Even if someone didn't like him, he had to praise him in his heart. This person really had a good soldier, let alone others waiting.

With such prestige and Qu Shizhao's courage, how could anyone stand up and push forward? So the group followed along, intending to go back to Jinzhou directly.

However, the Han River was right in front of me, and there was an assassin ambushing halfway. That was not counting. There was a secret boy hidden in the Qin imperial envoy team, and he almost failed to take the life of the imperial envoy. When Wang Lan reported that there was a poison that was blood-conferred on the short blade, everyone was frightened, but they all felt that the situation in Sichuan seemed to be very bad.

"Zensui." Zhao Shi took the short blade and took a look. The short blade's blade was faintly glowing blue light, and there was a sweet smell. You don't need to think about it and know that this is a neurotoxin extracted from the teeth of the venomous snake. I don't know how toxicity is. However, even if the toxicity is slightly reduced on the blade, it should be enough to take human life in this era.

But now his anger has passed, and his mind is not just above this.

"The last one will be there."

"I will give you ten people, take the lead. After passing the Han River, you must not stop at any time. Go to Xingyuan Mansion. If what I expected... After you arrive at Xingyuan Mansion, don't alarm others. Tell Lord Zong and Chen Envoy the news of the fall of Jianmen, so that they can take strict precautions, especially in various places with heavy food and grass...

Do you understand what I mean?"

These words were a bit messy and had a deep meaning. Zhong Sui frowned, but was shocked in his heart. The fall of the Sword Sect was a huge matter. According to the emperor's wishes... Could it be that it has not been spread to Jinzhou yet? How could this be possible?

But then he understood a little. Naturally, such news would not have been reached at Jinzhou at this time. If Jinzhou had no idea, at least half of the officials on the West Lizhou Road would not be able to escape his crime. The storm in Sichuan would be much more serious than what he thought before... This was clearly a test by the imperial envoy.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel shocked again. Maybe there was something he didn't expect... At this moment, he couldn't let him think about it anymore. After going back, he had to make a good decision with his father. When he thought about it, he was shocked. After spending more than ten days on the way, the adult had never sent anyone to return to Jinzhou to report the news first. But now... he sent himself, this... If he had just said that before, he had a little simple appreciation and a little admiration for the young General Yulin and the imperial envoy in military strategy, and now he also had a vague understanding of his cunning, and he could even say he was a little afraid.

Ambitious, this word flashed through his mind, and even he himself didn't understand why he thought of this...

"Yes, let's set off now and I will definitely bring the words of the adults back..." His mind was confused, but he was still confident that the children of aristocratic families were really something that ordinary people could compare with.

Zhao Shi looked at him deeply, but the context of the things he had been thinking about along the way became clearer and clearer. It was something ordinary people dare not do, so they should have extraordinary means... I hope that the Zoroastrian Church will not disappoint people.

The people in the tent were swept through Liu Zhongguo and Li Chengyi, but then they passed by and looked at Yang Duan, "Yang Duan, you go with the commander of the Zong, but you must not stay in Jinzhou. Holding my imperial envoy's order flag, go back to the capital day and night to report the message. I will send Li Quande to lead twenty soldiers with you...

Military information should have been passed on to the Ministry of War, but I am the imperial envoy who upholds the emperor's order, so I want you to go directly to the palace to meet Your Majesty, and then say... I will tell you what happened to you. If Your Majesty asks you, just say... Well, I will submit you a memorial to Your Majesty."

Although Yang Duan was a little confused, he didn't want to stay in the dangerous land in the river for a moment. When he heard that the imperial envoy who almost gave him his life finally expressed his compassion and sent him back to the capital, he was surprised inexplicably. As for the others, he never thought about it. Perhaps this time, his biggest surprise was that he made a small military achievement, and could return to the capital alive, and meet the emperor Longyan after returning to the capital. What was this a surprise? As for him, he was conscious of his knowledge.

He also made a lot of progress and fully understood that the matter in the foreign army was not as simple as before. He himself did not fight to earn fame and fortune, and he would rather stay in the Yulin Army and be happy after returning. As for other things, such as why the imperial envoy only sent him back to the capital instead of others, and wanted Li Quande to follow him, was he monitored or was afraid that he would talk nonsense, and why he didn't report it to the Ministry of War and the Privy Council, but directly met His Majesty. He didn't think about it, nor did he want to think too much.

"Yes, please rest assured. I will definitely do what I have given to you... I won't be talking nonsense..."

Zhao Shi nodded slightly, but said in his heart, even if you want to mess up the matter, or intentionally frame the emperor, you have to have the ability, right?

After arranging these two important things, he turned to look at Qu Shizhao on the other side. The deputy envoy of the imperial envoy looked completely gone. His face was swollen, his clothes were messy, and his eyes were extremely complicated, with anger, humiliation, and even a sense of at a loss. Even the deep hatred hidden in his eyes could be seen clearly by Zhao Shi.

With a cold smile, Zhao Shi said, "Mr. Qu, I almost got into a villain's plot before. I was angry and lost my composure, which made Master Qu frightened. However, Xiao Qing was brought out by Master Qu, but he wanted to assassinate me. I don't know how Lord Qu explained this matter. Although Zhao was not talented, he was an official in the court. Now he is an imperial envoy and is plotting to assassinate me. It is a serious crime. Some of our lawsuits are beaten, but I want to listen to Lord Qu's own explanation first, otherwise there is no need to be beaten in this lawsuit. I believe Lord Qu understands the truth that I, the imperial envoy, can't deal with you as a deputy envoy..."

The murderous intent revealed in these words made Qu Shizhao tremble. He was very unfair to say that he was wronged. Xiao Qing was just a guard in the mansion who was begging him. Before leaving the capital, he didn't even know that there was such a person in the mansion, which was arranged by the people below. Who knew that this man had committed some crazy things. He actually wanted to assassinate the important officials of the court in chaos, but he was hit by the fish. At this time, he was caught and the handle was really hard to deal with.

Thinking of the previous imperial envoy who had caught him indiscriminately, he was beaten up with a bitter blow. Don’t mention the aggrievance and resentment in his heart. He has been an official for so many years and never dreamed that he would suffer such humiliation, but he was taken over by someone. Although his face hurts so much, his heart is bleeding.

However, when he thought of the fact that even Yang Gan's legitimate grandson dared to die, killing him as an imperial envoy, it was nothing. In addition, when he was in the capital, he heard the rumors about this adult were full of evil spirits, so he really didn't dare to bet. If he had to say one or two sentences, would this person cut off his head immediately?

His face was lost, so how could he care about the other side? His legs became weak and he knelt down on the ground and said with a whisper: "Sir, this matter has nothing to do with the officials. Xiao Qing just threw himself into the mansion a few days ago... His family background is innocent, so he kept it. Who knew... He actually kept the evil intentions..."

What he said was miserable here, and most of the people in the tent lowered their eyes. Although most of them were from the army and leading troops to fight, they were the most benevolent and despised the deputy envoy, but no matter what, everyone was a man in the officialdom. Seeing his appearance as he was neither human nor ghost, even Du Shanhu was somewhat sad and felt that he could not bear to be lingering in his heart, let alone others.

Zhao Shi snorted coldly here. In fact, after calming down a little, he already understood that this assassination might have nothing to do with Qu Shizhao. After taking the two tokens handed over by Wang Lan, he had already confirmed in his heart that there were flame-shaped objects on the two wooden tokens. Thinking of the name of the sect, the identities of several assassins were about to emerge.

He was also a little surprised that these guys could actually ambush the high-ranking officials in the Qin Dynasty. This is really hard to guard against.

However, although he had already confirmed the commander in his heart, he could not let go if he had this opportunity to question the person who was surnamed Qu. A few days ago, he learned a lot of officialdom from Nan Shiba and understood a lot of truths. In the officialdom, physical destruction is a way to stop it. Just like when Zeng Du was intercepted and killed, things were a little confused, with no benefits, but there were many sequelae.

This is a bit far-reaching, but if it were him who had been the first to behead Qu Shizhao first and then talk about other things, who would have made this Qu person embarrassed him all the time?

But in the end he still tried to kill and said coldly: "Mr. Qu, it's not that I'm not merciless and plotting to assassinate the imperial envoy of the court. It's a big deal. At this extraordinary time, I think Master Qu knows that even if I believe you here, the court will have to investigate thoroughly. Besides, several assassins are dead. The so-called death has no evidence, which may be detrimental to Lord Qu? So, I'll be wronged afterwards. Wang Lan, take a few people to send Lord Qu to rest. In the future, you must not neglect your personal guard until you turn back to the capital..."

Qu Shizhao relaxed in one breath and almost fainted on the ground. This is what house arrest means. Although it seems that he will suffer a little, he will save his life. It will be a bit easier to talk about it until the day he returns to Beijing. Besides, there is a sister in the palace who protects him. It is better to say that there is nothing wrong with him. But... this tone... Humph, the future is long, Zhao Shi, don't fall into our hands, otherwise... Humph... Today's humiliation will definitely be returned thousands of times, let's take a look...
