Chapter 70 Assassination
The afterglow of the setting sun spreads on the earth, and the houses, trees, streets, and pedestrians seem to be dyed with a layer of warm orange gauze. The guests staying on the third floor of Liansheng Inn, Looking at all this, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but raise slightly.
The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it’s almost dusk!
Li Shangyin's poem "Deng Le You Yuan" is really well written!
The once majestic Ningguo Mansion is just like the sunset, which is about to set.
Hahaha~
Hahaha~~~
It turns out that the noble families in the capital are just like this.
If I had known this, they would be afraid of a ball.
The man was about to pour himself a glass of wine and celebrate secretly when he heard many urgent and neat footsteps, and soon the door rang.
Putting down the wine bottle, he was about to go over and open the door, but unexpectedly the door was kicked open, "The Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Department is handling the case, and the rest are waiting to retreat." The leader of the team came out, he looked at the man and smiled, "Li "Haizhong, you have committed a crime."
Li Haizhong was shocked, "Sir, did you make a mistake? I went to Beijing to find friends in just a few days, what could I have committed? What happened? "
This time when he went to Beijing, he didn't even go to a brothel. He just paid money and waited for news. Why did he commit a crime?
Even if something happens, it has nothing to do with him!
He only had some contact with Chen Chong and gave him some money.
Chen Chong is the head of the Ministry of Industry. Even if the government wants to arrest him, there must be sufficient evidence.
But the people he sent to keep an eye on Chen Chong reported back at noon that everything was normal.
The same goes for Ningguo Mansion.
How come they are all normal, but the problem is just him?
“Haha~”
The squad leader smiled but said, "You know whether it's a crime, and I know it." He waved his hand fiercely, "Take it down!"
"Slowly!"
Li Hai Zhong hurriedly took out many banknotes from his arms, "Sir, I am really wronged. Please show me a clear way."
"Suggest a clear way?"
The team leader looked at the banknotes stuffed into his hands, turned around and said to Lin Zhixiao, who was slowly coming up: "Manager Lin, how about..., let's talk about it?" "
Lin Zhixiao cupped his hands and looked at the audience, "I'm just here to see who dares to plot against my Jia family. Now that I see it, I understand. "
Really the Jia family?
Li Haizhong's legs went weak and he almost fell to his knees on the spot.
“Did you hear that?”
The squad leader smiled, "Li Haizhong, you have caused a big trouble for the Li family."
He put the banknote in his arms, waved his hand, and said sternly: "Search, from now on, No. A All the evidence in the house must be checked.”
The wolf-like government officials rushed up and quickly pushed Li Haizhong to the ground. Lin Zhixiao stepped forward and said, “Jiangnan is so big. Isn’t it enough for you?”
“…”
Li Haizhong looked at the boots that could step on him at any time, his mouth trembling, his eyes filled with fear.
To deal with the Jia family, of course he inquired about everyone in the Jia family.
This Lin Zhixiao is the general manager of Rongguo Mansion.
Ah ah ah, he was wrong. Ning and Rong's two houses are one. He should keep an eye on the people in both houses.
"Dare to go to Beijing?" Lin Zhixiao leaned down and whispered: "The Li family...just wait to confiscate the family and exterminate the clan!"
These days, he has also been feeling aggrieved. Deadly.
It's fine now, and finally I don't have to be scolded by the big boss anymore.
Lin Zhixiao brushed his sleeves, turned and went downstairs.
From a distance, An Wu, who was also staring here, was very satisfied.
The emperor happened to be short of money, and the Li family happened to hit it.
I really didn’t expect that this matter is related to Jiangnan.
Fortunately, they followed the Jia family all the time. Otherwise, they would really suspect that the Jia family was too arrogant and lawless to kill people in the street.
It’s fine now.
An Wu secretly looked at Lin Zhixiao.
I thought it would be Jia Zhen’s people who discovered this place first, but I didn’t expect it would be Jia She’s people.
Is there another side to that confused Jia She who just squats at home, plays with his wife, and plays with antiques?
He touched his chin, but before he could figure out the reason, he heard a horse's cry in the distance, followed by a 'bang'. If nothing unexpected happened, the carriage should have crashed.
Hmph~
Deserve it!
Where in the capital?
How can you run rampant?
As long as you slow down, nothing will happen.
An Wu didn't care about that. He had to guard Li Haizhong for the emperor. If he guarded Li Haizhong, he would guard the emperor's money.
Lin Zhixiao didn't care. After getting on his horse, he took the two boys and walked steadily to Ning and Rong Street.
At this time, no one knew that Jia Zhen, who was only a few blocks away, was experiencing life and death.
His horses and carts are now inspected several times a day. Who would have thought that something would happen if they were so careful?
"Quick! Take down that man."
The guards following Jia Zhen were filled with hatred.
The child suddenly came over. They had obviously already made a move to avoid it, and when some brothers were ready to reach out and lift the child up immediately, a man who seemed to want to save him rushed over.
You just save people, hold the child and jump to the left, or roll, but this man actually wielded a big stick and hit the horse on the head.
Xing'er tried his best to control the horse, but the horse was originally trotting. Although it was pulled while avoiding the child, it was so painful that it ran for several steps and hit the main gate of Mipu. Then the carriage crashed down.
The incident happened so suddenly. The first reaction of the guards was to avoid the children and save them. No one expected that such a series of changes would happen. Unexpectedly, the child actually took out the dagger from his arms and rushed towards the carriage at an unimaginable speed.
Hiss~
In an instant, everyone guessed who he might be.
Grandpa Jiao has been talking about the famous killers on the road every day recently, talking about the characteristics of each of them. This person... is clearly the dwarf killer Xie Zhenghu!
Bang~
The two guards didn't care and fell to the side. Xing'er, who had already fainted, kicked the carriage together without thinking. As long as Xie Zhenghu was not allowed to rush in, the uncle would be safe.
At the same time, the other two guards also flew forward and cut off the way forward to Xie Zhenghu.
This man had committed many murders in Ping'an Prefecture. Not only did the government offer a reward of 500 taels of silver, some of the victims' families also pooled together 3,000 taels of silver to jointly offer a reward for him.
It's just the fugitive skills of the guards, but they are nothing in front of the extremely powerful Xie Zhenghu.
Before the two of them got close, Xie Zhenghu had already moved flexibly, slipped through the crotch of one of them, and rushed into the carriage.
Jia Zhen knew it was not good. Although she was beaten to pieces, she kicked him with her feet and used a thick pillow to protect herself as soon as he rushed in.
"Ah~, save me."
A scream came out. He didn't know whether his kick hit Xie Zhenghu, but he felt the dagger piercing it.
Jia Zhen was so scared that she shed tears.
But at this moment, he didn't have time to waste time. When the person jumped up with a dagger and was about to stab him again, he used the pillow to protect him desperately.
After a muffled 'chi', Jia Zhen screamed in pain again.
Fortunately, the guards who were guarding him also rushed in.
But the small space was too advantageous for Xie Zhenghu, but within a few breaths, they all failed.
Hearing the screams of the uncle and the brothers made people anxious. The guard who had just kicked the carriage did not care about anything else. The two of them worked together to pull the broken mortise and tenon joint with all their strength. , quickly opened one side of the carriage.
Xie Zhenghu knew that nothing could be done. After a feint, he whistled and rushed out first.
"Uncle~"
"Uncle~~"
The situation on the other side of the carriage also distracted the guards who intercepted the big man. Compared to catching the murderer, Of course, their uncle's life is more important. Jiao Da had long said that in such a situation, the first step was to save their master's life.
The two men, who wanted to escape regardless of the situation, rushed towards the carriage.
At this time, Jia Zhen was as pitiable as she could be. Her legs were bleeding in several places, and the pillow protecting her upper body had been punctured with countless holes. Fortunately, Xie Zhenghu's dagger was shorter than a normal dagger, otherwise he might have been injured long ago. No more.
But it was scary enough. There were many blood marks on his chest and belly.
The blood had gradually dyed the clothes in front of him red.
"Quickly, send him to the hospital."
Jia Zhen had too many injuries. After the guards quickly tied up the biggest bleeding point on his leg, they pulled the door panel of the rice shop and pulled him As soon as he put it up, one person grabbed a corner and ran towards Huichun Hall.
The owner of the rice shop was frightened. He looked at Xing'er who was unconscious in front of his door, and then at the two guards who were also injured. He said tremblingly: "You three gentlemen, do you want to go to the hospital? ?”
……
In Rongguo Mansion, Mother Jia couldn’t help but sigh when she heard that Shen Ning was about to give birth.
This child may be destined for disaster. Otherwise, the Jia family has been peaceful for so many years, why did she cause so much trouble when she came?
“Just wait!”
The older niece-in-law is going to give birth. Logically, she, the aunt, should go there and take charge. However, Jia Mu feels uncomfortable and doesn't want to go for the time being. "From the start to the birth, it takes a few hours no matter what."
She is too old to bear it.
"By the way, have you found out about the death of the Chen and Wang families outside?"
She actually believed it when she said it was Jia Zhen who did it.
The child was strictly controlled when he was a child, otherwise, he would really be able to get into the house.
Now that I am older, I have attacked Jue again. If I get angry, can I overturn it?
"What did She'er say?"
Jia Mu looked at Mr. Xing.
Since that day, her eldest son came to greet her every time before she got up. He wanted to see Yingchun, so he took her home without even meeting her.
The death of the Chen and Wang families was due to Wang’s words.
The second son found out how much trouble Jia Zhen had caused outside.
Jing'er is not at home, and Mr. Shen is not strict in raising his son.
"The master has already sent people to investigate."
Ms. Xing looked helpless, "But since the other party is targeting our Jia family, it is not that easy to investigate."
Jia She didn't tell her about the outside affairs in detail at all. In order to deal with her mother-in-law, Xing could only push her away day by day.
“Go back now and just say what I said.” Jia Muhu said with a face, “This matter must be done quickly. If it is not done well, our family will be implicated.”
< br>“Yes!”
Ms. Go and have a look.”
It’s not easy for him to go, but his wife can. “Call Lian’s wife too.”
The more times like this, the more the two families need to work together. .
"If you have anything to do, please take the initiative."
"Yes!"
There is nothing Xing cannot agree to, "The old lady just asked..."
Just as she was about to say what Jia Mu said, a young boy came running quickly from a distance. Seeing his happy face, Jia She felt relieved.
"Master, General Manager Lin is back. He said the person behind it has been found."
"Good job."
Jia She was overjoyed and said, "Tell Lin Zhixiao , let’s go to Dongfu to announce the good news.”
Jia Zhen must have been anxious these past two days.
He looked at Mrs.
After hearing the urgent report from his servants, Jia Zhen was attacked. Fortunately, no vital parts were hurt. The breath that Jiao Da had been holding finally relaxed.
No one in this world is a fool.
If you want others to believe that you are really miserable, then you have to be true in some places.
So they themselves cannot do anything that hurts the uncle.
Fortunately, the Jia family has been in charge of the capital camp for many years, and everyone they offended has gone away.
Jiao Da used the name of a young boy to answer the question.
He was also worried about doing this.
What if the palace guards fail to treat him and the uncle is really harmed?
Because of this, in the past few days, he has been desperately training everyone's resilience.
Today...
Jiao Da sat down on the ground, pressed his chest, took a breath, and said urgently: "Quick! Please come back, brother Rong."
The wife said that the uncle had fallen, and the inner courtyard was left to him. Grandma, leave the outer courtyard to Brother Rong, and they will do whatever he asks them to do.
In short, from now on, they are under the control of Brother Rong. If he is still in the shape of a child and insists on waiting for her to give birth in the inner courtyard, then the attack on the uncle will be handed over to the government for investigation. They Just guard the gate of Ningguo Mansion.
Just now that the old man’s life was gone, Jiao Da became worried about the young man’s choice again.
At this time, it was also the time for Brother Rong to finish school. He was thinking about his grandmother and came back without any delay as soon as he finished school.
"Brother Rong, you came back just in time. My wife started the attack. The uncle was attacked on his way to invite shopkeeper Chen, and he is now being treated at Huichun Hall."
What?
Jia Rong's expression changed drastically, "Are Zhong Wenpo and Liu Wenpo with my grandmother? How is my father now? Is there anyone who reports to the official?"
"Madam, where are Liu Wenpo and Zhong Wenpo? Po Wen is ready, and Grandma is also there."
Jiao Da said anxiously, "We have just received the news from the uncle. We only know that there are no injuries, and there is no fear of life. "
That's good.
Jia Rong glanced at the direction of the inner courtyard, "Don't tell grandma and mother about my father for the time being. Grandpa Jiao, take someone with me to Huichun Hall."
"Yes!"
This "Yes" Jiao Da answered extremely resoundingly.
I can’t do that, but their brother Rong has a lot of legacy from his grandfather.
The old man waved his hand, and all the guards and servants who had been panicking just now began to move.
At the same time, the news that Jia Zhen was attacked and covered in blood spread as quickly as possible.
Everyone who heard this couldn't help but strengthen their protection.
But what happened to the Jia family...
Who did it?
Wang Ziteng's frightened horse was not found out. Although everyone guessed some people, there was no evidence and they were probably wrong.
Now there is another Jia Zhen who was assassinated in the street...
Who is so free?
Or... you want to disrupt the capital?
