Chapter 1543 I hope there won’t be any more trouble
After all, the location where everyone is located is not far from Kangping City, and it is only an hour's journey away.
Kangping City is the capital of Qizhou State, and there are many sergeants patrolling around it.
The fireworks exploding in the sky can be seen not only by the Ouchi guards, but also by the assassins from Anxiang Hall.
So these guys began to retreat, and the Ouchi guards did not dare to pursue them at all, fearing that they would be killed if they turned around, or that it would be a tactic to lure the tiger away from the mountain.
Not long after, a large number of soldiers arrived at the scene, but the Ouchi guards still did not dare to relax, leaving a mess on the ground for the soldiers to clean up, and quickly escorted Princess Mingzhu back to Kangping City.
Soon, the story of the princess's encounter with the assassin at the gate of Kangping City spread throughout the streets.
The emperor was furious and launched a rigorous investigation into who had done it.
The entire city of Kangping was under martial law, and everyone related to it was in action. Even the police were eager to search door to door.
What happened this time was no less than a slap in the face to the Emperor of Qizhou. It would be strange not to be angry.
The princess was rushed back to the palace, and of course Yang Yiyi could not go with her. They followed Li Yingluo and Zheng Yinping home. If the princess wants to hear the story, I'm afraid it will have to be postponed.
Of course, before leaving, Yang Yiyi told the Ouchi guards that she recognized these people as assassins from Anxiangtang, and it was estimated that the entire Qizhou Kingdom would launch a major purge against Anxiangtang.
It is no exaggeration to say that if they had not happened to run into Yang Yiyi, the assassins of Anxiangtang would have succeeded. This group of people is indeed professional enough. They ran away immediately when they found out that nothing could be done, without any delay at all, and they wanted to catch them. The clues may not be easy.
But Yang Yiyi doesn't have to worry about this. Qizhou State also has an organization similar to the Plum Blossom Guard, so it's up to others to do the work.
It is estimated that after the emperor listens to the report of the Ouchi guards, Yang Yiyi will be given a reward or something, so she can just wait patiently now.
Living in Li Yingluo's house is no longer a day or two. Even the room for Yang Yiyi is still there, and all the furnishings have not been changed.
But Yang Yiyi is very calm, which does not mean everyone is calm.
Although Wu Shaoyi is also a young lady from a wealthy family, compared with Li Yingluo, a daughter of Situ, she is really different. When she heard that Yang Yiyi was going to stay, Wu Shaoyi gave people a feeling of panic.
The most frightened ones were of course He Ling and several junior sisters.
They were no longer confused, but scared to death.
What's going on?
Why did you meet the princess?
Why are there a bunch of killers?
ah? Do you still have to live in Situ's house?
Things were moving too fast, and they felt like they didn't have enough brains.
Staying here, surrounded by dignitaries and dignitaries, was too exciting for He Ling and the others.
In fact, this is the reaction of normal people. Don't forget that this is a feudal society. Not everyone is as careless as Yang Yiyi and can chat and laugh with the princess.
He Ling wanted to find an inn outside, but Li Yingluo said, just stay there, I have plenty of rooms.
Moreover, when the princess was assassinated in Kangping City, the streets and alleys will definitely be strictly investigated. The inns where foreign merchants live will also be the focus of the strict investigation. Don't look at He Ling and the others dressed as Jianghu people and think that they will be handed in early. The policeman is looking for trouble.
Li Yingluo was very sure that before the martial law was lifted, even ships in the port could not sail. If He Ling and the others wanted to go to Nanshan City, they would definitely have to wait until the lockdown was lifted, so they might as well stay in Situ Mansion.
In addition, Yang Yiyi also persuaded He Ling to stay, so they entered the guest room with some trepidation. He Ling privately told the junior sisters not to wander around. If they collided with the senior officials, we would be in trouble. . This matter has come to an end for the time being, but what Li Chengqi doesn't understand is why Anxiangtang would target Princess Mingzhu.
When we were at Lingyun Temple before, it was obvious that Anxiangtang was still following Yang Yiyi and had no interest in the princess.
And now more than half a year later, Anxiangtang actually organized a team of hundreds of people to target the princess. What happened during this period?
I remember I mentioned before that Anxiangtang is a killer organization that cares about money, and will not kill court officials no matter how much money is given, just for fear of offending the power of the court.
Oh, instead of killing the imperial official, kill the princess, right?
Are you here to play word games?
Something is obviously wrong.
An organization that never messed with the government suddenly came to kill the princess. Something must have changed.
Besides, what's the use of killing Princess Mingzhu?
She has a high status, but has no power. She cannot hinder the ministers in the court, and she cannot hinder the princes in the palace.
No matter how much he disliked Princess Mingzhu, it was impossible for him to make such a move.
The person who ordered Anxiang Hall should not be in the court.
But besides the court, who else could it be?
Li Chengqi immediately thought of Beidi.
Princess Rousi was once captured by the Northlanders. If the Plum Blossom Guards hadn't been chasing her closely, the Northlanders would have almost transported the princess away.
Assume that the purpose of those assassins from Anxiang Hall is not to kill the princess, but to capture the princess...
The possibility that the Northland is behind Anxiang Hall is particularly high. Using Princess Mingzhu as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Qizhou State, even if it is impossible to get Qizhou State to stop supporting the war in the north, it will also constrain Qizhou State's next actions.
The Sirius Sect has been doing things in the martial arts world of the Central Plains. All sects are collecting intelligence related to the Sirius Sect and regard it as a formidable enemy.
But that ignores Northland.
People from the North have an advantage over people from the Western Regions in activities in the Central Plains. After all, there is no difference in appearance from the people from the Central Plains.
It's hard to say how far these guys stretched their hands while the Central Plains people's attention was focused on the Sirius Cult. But since even Anxiang Hall is listening to Beidi's orders, I'm afraid the situation is not optimistic.
Thinking of this, Li Chengqi scratched his head irritably.
He originally thought that after the Sirius Cult was defeated, Yang Yiyi would just go around doing chivalry and righteousness. How could this happen one after another, endlessly.
In fact, Yang Yiyi had heard about Beidi many times, and she wanted to go there and have a look, but Li Chengqi always said, 'Don't go! ’ attitude.
After all, Shen Qingluo's cousin Shen Qingshuang is in the Northland, and the sense of oppression caused by that legal loli is still vivid in her mind.
To be honest, even with Yang Yiyi's current strength, she still has no chance of winning against Shen Qingshuang, not to mention that behind Shen Qingshuang there is an even worse leader of Fengyun Village.
Even if she is weaker than Jiang Fengyue, it is not something Yang Yiyi can handle.
And Li Chengqi was sure that as long as Yang Yiyi got involved, he would definitely come face to face with these masters.
After all, when this girl was charging hard, she didn't even look at whether there was any danger. Li Chengqi knew it all too well.
So Li Chengqi didn't reveal a word of these speculations to Yang Yiyi. If he really told her, the girl would have to pack her bags and go north on the spot.
Although Yang Yiyi listens to Li Chengqi's words, Yang Yiyi will not stand idly by when it comes to big issues of right and wrong. No matter what Li Chengqi says, it is useless.
So now Li Chengqi just hopes that there will be no more troubles that will cause Yang Yiyi to focus on the north.
