Chapter 527
"Bang, Bang"
There was a sound of clamoring on the dim and unclear Chang'an Street.
"The weather is dry, be careful of the candle..."
When an old and vigorous shout came out, a row of birds flew over the roof next to him.
"Huwu"
Birds flap their wings and merge into the night wind without attracting attention.
The birds crossed Chang'an Street, flew over the palace walls, and under the close surveillance of the Imperial Guards and patrol the Great Wall, they blatantly flew against the roof of the study.
Its characteristic is that Xiaohua personally knows only a flock of birds and scatters to inquire about the garrison of the Imperial Guards.
When the Imperial Guards outside the Imperial Study room changed the guard, Xiaohua stood on the roof and folded her wings and pointed down, then took it back and made a move to wipe her neck, and whispered: "Come on as planned, kill!"
"Swish swish swish swish"
The owls surrounding it quickly attacked down.
As the remaining little flowers watched them flap their wings and fly away, cold lights reflected from their sharp claws.
It was a dagger tied to its sharp claws in advance, shining through the palace light below, reflecting a cold light.
This doesn't feel anything to it, but it reveals a sense of disgust.
But it had no time to think about this, so it lowered its head and pecked the small black bag tied to its ankle, carefully placed it on the roof, and then left one meter and untied the tiles one foot below the roof.
The movements are light and quite like a veteran.
At this time, an abnormal noise came from below.
"Puuu, ah, there is an assassin..."
Without looking, it also knew that the birds attacked the guards successfully, but failed.
This scared it. Seeing the little brothers flying back one after another, four of them flew with a crossbow bow in their hands. The two little brothers behind them brought a crossbow arrow and scolded them angrily: "Bare..."
"Boss, it's not our fault for the attack and killing. The main reason is that the Imperial Guards are all masters..."
"That's right, boss, you don't know, the Imperial Guards are very vigilant..."
"Stop talking, act quickly, otherwise you will be in a serious way if you fail to complete the task..."
"Nonsense, we failed to attack and kill, and we were alerting the snake. Those two goals were not gone..."
"Shut up, Erqiu was assassinated and would only huddle in the imperial study and wait for the imperial guards to gather to rescue him, and would not escape.
Why don’t you pierce the arrow of the crossbow and then install it on the crossbow to prepare for shooting, what are you waiting for?"
Seeing the little brothers yelling, Xiaohua pointed at each of them with her wings and scolded her, thinking to herself that she would deal with you guys who were not good enough to do anything when she went back.
At this moment, there was a mess below.
"There are assassins, rescue the car, rescue the car..."
"Where is the Imperial Guard? I haven't come to rescue you yet. You are waiting to die..."
The eunuch surrounded the emperor behind the table in the imperial study, and looked outside in horror and shouted.
This was the warning issued by the imperial guards on duty outside when they were dying, which alarmed them and staged a rescue scene.
Strangely, the guards outside died, but the assassin also disappeared.
Until a team of imperial guards arrived in the imperial study, they did not see the assassin, but were ignored by everyone.
"The emperor forgives his crime, and it is too late to save the emperor..."
Commander Li was so scared that he was both shattered and knelt on the ground and sweated coldly to apologize.
For the sake of the Emperor's safety, he ran over immediately.
On the way, he ignored the panicked imperial guards and did not check on his subordinates who died outside the imperial study room. He was so worried that he was almost scared to death.
Li Shimin was trembling in a chair, and his face turned pale. Seeing that he was coming, his face turned pale and angry. He was about to stand up and get angry, and suddenly he felt death was approaching...
"call out"
A crossbow arrow shot down from the roof.
It was like lightning, flashing.
It was because he had experienced the tempering of the battlefield of life and death, and had a warning about the crisis of death, but he had no time to avoid it.
However, the eunuchs who served him had some skills.
With the round-faced eunuch Xiao Yuanzi, he happened to breathe a sigh of relief and raised his head to find the trajectory of the crossbow arrows.
Xiao Yuanzi immediately pushed the emperor away and blocked the arrows: "Your Majesty, it's dangerous...ah..."
This is how he pushed the emperor away, but failed to completely avoid the fatal arrow.
The crossbow arrow shot from top to bottom, shot through the emperor's right shoulder, and then shot into Xiao Yuanzi's heart.
Fortunately, the crossbow arrow shot downwards, otherwise he would be killed immediately.
"He rescues, there are assassins on the roof..."
"Damn it, the Imperial Guards escort and catch the assassin..."
The eunuch exclaimed, Commander Li flew up from the ground, went straight to the beam of the room, stabbed him with a knife, and shouted to catch the assassin.
"Puchi, slam"
It was a mess all of a sudden.
Just as he pierced the leaves and stirred up a burst of broken tiles, the little flower and the flock of birds flew high, and also ushered in the pursuit of the Imperial Guards flying up.
It’s a pity that the Imperial Guards have lost the trace of the assassin when they arrived above the roof.
"Report, the commander, there is no shadow of an assassin on the roof, only a crossbow is left..."
"No, this crossbow is clearly the equipment we configured..."
"Shut up, you can't say such words..."
"Emperor, last general..."
"Bold, the assassin used the crossbows configured by the Imperial Guard to attack me. Do you have the face to explain?"
Seeing Commander Li fly down from Fangliang to defend himself, Li Shimin ignored the eunuch's wounds on his shoulders and pointed at him angrily and scolded him. I almost died?
Could someone bribed the Imperial Guards and waited for an opportunity to attack and kill me?
Is this the imperial guards I have trained?
"Your Majesty, I will be guilty, but please ask the emperor to approve the final investigation of the case thoroughly, otherwise I will die with my eyes open!"
Commander Li knelt on the ground and said in anger and horror.
Xiao Yuanzi, who was cramping beside him, vomited black blood and coughed, said, "Emperor, the arrow is poisonous..."
"What, it's poisonous, spread it to the Imperial Doctor, hurry up..."
Commander Li jumped up in fear, ignored etiquette, and turned to the outside of the imperial study room and shouted.
With his voice, the Imperial Guards were completely in chaos and started running.
In the chaotic and noisy atmosphere, Li Shimin sat on the ground with a dead face, feeling the blazing pain caused by the wound, and gritted his teeth and said, "Check, I will limit you to find out this case within one stick of incense!"
"The last general is to thank you!"
Commander Li not only felt fear, but instead felt a hint of joy, knelt down and thanked him, and then ran out of the imperial study room.
The rest of Li Shimin died in trembling palpitations. When he saw Xiao Yuanzi's painful appearance, he was struggling on the brink of death, he was trembling: "Who, who wants to harm me?"
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for your courage. This matter must be related to the people who plotted to usurp the throne..."
Xiao Yuanzi was unwilling to die and said in enduring the pain.
These words stimulated Li Shimin's mind and said in disbelief: "Is it him that he just wishes me to die..."
"Report, the emperor, General Yuchi sent someone to the palace to rescue the emperor..."
"Xuan, I want to see how Yuchi Gong can save the horse?"
Hearing the report from the Imperial Guards outside the door, Li Shimin regained his dignity, stood up reluctantly, sat on the chair and said.
"rustle"
Wu Pian General quickly entered the imperial study room, lowered his head and knelt on the ground and started to proclaim: "Your Majesty, I will be ordered to save the emperor..."
"Tell me the point, how do you know that I was assassinated?"
"Return to the emperor, we didn't know in advance that the emperor was assassinated. It was just that the civil and military ministers of Changsun Wuji and his party passed the emperor's oral orders to order the three armies to attack Wuliang Palace.
General Yuchi suspiciously rejected them, and was assassinated shortly after they left.
In response to this, General Yuchi felt that this matter was unusual and sent the last general to the palace to rescue the emperor.
On the way, someone attacked Changsun Wuji and his group of people who protected the spirit. It is said that Changsun Wuji was a fake..."
