Chapter 11: There are really assassins (2)

"Pu...pu...gu...gu..."

"Sister Ying, it's a carrier pigeon!" Li Qing looked over in the voice and saw a snow-white pigeon falling on the windowsill with a bamboo tube tied to his legs. He said in surprise.

"My sister, hurry up and take the bamboo tube." Xu Ruying's face suddenly became serious. Although the White Lotus Sect in Shandong had disappeared and her saint aunt had become the yellow flower yesterday, it turned out that there were still many old people from the White Lotus Sect in the Shadow, although they were obeying Zhu Yinglong, they were secretly loyal to her, the saint aunt, and obeyed her. Moreover, if she wanted to hide her, she had to rely on these people to inform her. Otherwise, Zhu Yinglong would have found her long ago, and they naturally would not have interrupted their contact.

Li Qing took the bamboo tube and handed it to Xu Ruying. Xu Ruying took out a small roll of paper from the slender bamboo tube, took it under the lamp and opened it, and her face suddenly changed.

"Sister Ying, what happened?"

"Someone plotted to assassinate him!" Xu Ruying said nervously.

"What?" Li Qing was so frightened by the news that she almost shouted out.

"Sister Ying, what's going on?"

"I don't know either, and the news is not very detailed. It means that someone plots to assassinate him on his way back to Beijing." Xu Ruying handed the note in her hand to Li Qing and said.

Li Qing glanced at the content on the note and said strangely: "Since he knows everything himself, he must have taken complete precautions. Sister Ying, why are you so worried?"

"When did I worry?" Xu Ruying asked back with a "ah".

"Sister Ying, don't lie to your sister anymore. In fact, you want to go back to him more than me. Your eyes have betrayed you." Li Qing Fuzhan said with a smile.

"It's almost dawn, damn girl, go to sleep!" Xu Ruying suddenly raised her face and picked up her sister's airs and said.

"Oh." Li Qing turned back to her house with her mouth puffed. What she left was a sleepless night.

In June, the sun was scorching. Even after drinking three large bowls of iced mung bean soup, Zhu Yinglong felt that he couldn't quench his thirst, and his throat was like smoke. He wanted to drink it again, so he asked Xu Yingyuan to serve another bowl, but when he picked up the bowl, he found that his stomach could not be served, so he had to put it down.

At this time, Xu Yingyuan hurriedly reported that Zhou Huaian, the commander of the Great Guard, asked for a visit.

"Aiqing Zhou, how is the arrangement?" Zhu Yinglong put down the memorial in his hand and asked Zhou Huaian who was walking in for a long time.

"Please rest assured, keep the assassin from coming and going!" Zhou Huaian stretched out his hand and wiped the sweat from his forehead and said confidently.

"Did I ask you to arrest all the assassins?"

Zhou Huaian was stunned and immediately understood, and smiled and said, "The emperor is right. I understand!"

"It's better to beat all these rebel traitors in one go!" Zhu Yinglong said heavily.

"I will definitely not let down the emperor's entrustedness and capture these rebel thieves in one net!" Zhou Huaian said with a choke.

"Come on, you're thirsty, you'll drink this bowl of iced mung bean soup!" Zhu Yinglong saw the sweat on his forehead and couldn't even wipe it. He couldn't even move his eyes when he stared at his bowl of iced mung bean soup.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhou Huaian's throat was so thirsty that he walked up and picked up the bowl of iced mung bean soup. "Guru, Guru" it got into his stomach in two strokes.

"Weichen has a request?" Zhou Huaian put down the bowl after drinking the iced mung bean soup.

"Tell me, I will consider any request as long as it is not too much." Zhu Yinglong stared at him.

"I would like to ask the emperor not to sit on the dragon chassis, and find someone who reminds you of similar people instead." Zhou Huaian said.

"This request is not too much. Anyway, I don't look like I'm going back to the capital during the day. After all, it's too hot and disturbing the people. I agree to this request." Zhu Yinglong thought about it, but he didn't think carefully when he came out, which made the capital a mess and disturbing the people. So he decided to go back at night so that he would not disturb the people much.

"Then I thank you, the emperor!" Zhou Huaian said happily. Everything else is easy to say, but he was afraid that the emperor would not agree to this matter. Now he has obtained the accurate letter. A stone in his heart has finally landed on the ground.

"Don't be busy thanking me. You haven't said how to arrange for me yet?" Zhu Yinglong hurriedly stopped.

"The emperor can ride a horse and hide among the great guards. Weichen has selected fifteen martial arts guards to protect you personally."

"Okay, just do what you said, it's great." Zhu Yinglong nodded with satisfaction.

"The emperor takes off and returns to Beijing!"

"Greatly send me off to the emperor!" All the teachers and students of Tongzhou Military Academy, as well as generals and officers from the Tongzhou New Army Barracks and "Daozhu" who were sent here by Huang Daozhou to visit and study, knelt all over the school ground and came to see him off.

"Your Majesty, please take us back to Beijing together!"

"Yes, the emperor will take us back to Beijing together!"

"Take us back to Beijing, go back to Beijing!"

"You are going back to Beijing?" Zhu Yinglong looked at these "Defense Priests" and sneered.

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty, we know we are wrong, we know we are wrong, we don't oppose the emperor's reform, we don't oppose it!" After more than ten days, they were finally surrendered by the facts. These pampered men lived in the military camps where they were used to life in the military camp. If this continues, this old bone will be ruined here, and they are even more greedy for power. If the emperor does not issue an order for them to leave for a day, most of their hard work will be gone. How can they not give in?

"Okay, I don't force anyone to do anything. I can just go back to Beijing. I don't have any extra carriages. You guys, follow those who are willing to go back. If you don't want to stay, stay. When I return to Beijing, I will send a carriage to pick you up!"

Suddenly, thank you sounds one after another. Zhu Yinglong was not so kind, so the reason why he followed the person back to Beijing and went back to wait for the carriage to pick him up and daydreaming people, let them wait. When will they remember it and send the carriage to come over, it would be good to leave these people here and transform their thoughts.

"Let's go!" Zhu Yinglong first got into the dragon chassis, changed his clothes with the big inner guard who had already hidden inside, and then took the opportunity of rest to ride a horse and hide among the guards.

The team of thousands of people, winding torches, also stretched out for a long distance. Along the way, there were footsteps, horse hooves, and car wheels rolling on the ground. There was basically no sound of people talking.

"Dole...doles...doles..."

The three silent sharp arrows were not heard by a group of big guards until they shot on the dragon chassis.

"Protection!" "There is an assassin!"

Suddenly, the team stopped in an instant. After all, the guards were well-trained and soon formed a round cavalry formation around the dragon chasing, protecting it tightly.

"Your Majesty, the assassin uses a double-hook light feather arrow, which is a killing weapon invented and used by the Dongchang before. When this arrow is shot, there is almost no sound of breaking through the air. It is very penetrating and it is simply unpredictable. There are barbs on the arrow. Even if it is not injured, it is very troublesome to treat it. Especially the pain of pulling the arrow is unbearable for ordinary people. Moreover, the assassin's arm strength is amazing and good at lurking and archery is even more extraordinary. The big inner guard who is in the dragon chassis has been assassinated in the dragon chassis." Zhou Huaian got the assassin's use of a double-hook light feather arrow, and he was so scared that he was sweating all over. Fortunately, he found a substitute to sit in the dragon chassis, otherwise the dead person would be the emperor himself, and it would be really a chaos in the world.

After hearing Zhou Huaian's report, Zhu Yinglong was also scared into a cold sweat. What a powerful assassin, what a powerful archery technique!

"Where is the assassin?" Zhu Yinglong asked hurriedly.

"This is the capital of the capital. There are no too many assassins, otherwise they would have been discovered by the court's eyewitness. The ministers probably have to be at most three or five people. They have ordered people to chase them in the direction of the arrows. I believe there will be news soon!" Zhou Huaian said hurriedly.

"I see that the assassin is not an ordinary assassin. Be careful when you ask your subordinates to chase him!"

"Yes, the emperor!" Zhou Huaian was also worried. He didn't have much fantasy about whether he could catch the assassin, because the assassin escaped with one blow, regardless of the result. Before his people could react, they wanted to disappear out of thin air, and they didn't even see a figure. He, the commander, asked himself that he did not have such a skill, even if he had hidden dragons and clenched tigers, he might not find one or two such people.

"If you pass the order, I will say that I was seriously injured when I was assassinated and was in danger." Zhu Yinglong felt his scalp numb. If the assassin was still alive, would he dare to step out of the Forbidden City if this person was not eliminated for a day? Who else was behind the assassin? He had to know all of these, and he had to know that there were many people who wanted him, the emperor, to die. For a moment, he could not tell which camp the assassin belonged to. The thief of the Lan family was just a bit suspicious. If Zhou Huaian had not asked Zhou Huaian to investigate Xu Wanruo, he would not have thought about asking about the Lan family's rebellion, and he would not have avoided this killing disaster. This was really a number of days in the dark.

"Your Majesty, why are you doing?" Before Zhou Huaian finished speaking, he bumped into Zhu Yinglong's cold eyes, which scared him so much that he quickly put them back.

"After returning to the capital, you must have a grand funeral of the guard brother who sacrificed his life on behalf of me. In addition to the court's pension, you can go to the Xianfei Concubine to personally deliver it to his family. Do you know?"

"I thank the emperor for his dead brother!"
