Transmigrated into the book to become the villain prince, the son of the plane to destroy
Chapter 432 Changes in Liangzhou
"What? You said that Xiao Huang was assassinated and died on the way to the Guo Mansion for a banquet?"
When he heard the news that Xiao Huang was assassinated halfway, Wang Cheng couldn't believe his ears.
He planned to kill Xiao Huang in the Guo residence, but he was assassinated and died before he arrived.
The person who came to report the news nodded heavily, and said decisively: "The villain was ordered by the governor to follow his car all the way from Qin Wang's mansion, and saw with his own eyes that his car was ambushed by a group of assassins in the middle of the melee. Killed the King of Qin... Now his soldiers are still howling in the street, and the villain also rushed to inform the governor immediately."
Although the news of Xiao Huang's death was reconfirmed, Wang Cheng still felt unbelievable for a moment that Xiao Huang died like this.
But then, he felt uneasy and fearful for no reason. Ever since he killed Li Jin and Xu Guang, he and Xiao Huang hunted and killed suspicious people in Guzang City like this, and strictly interrogated outsiders. However, there are still so many unknown assassins sneaking into Guzang City, and they easily ambushed and killed Xiao Huang in the street...
Then the next target of these assassins would be himself as the governor of Liangzhou.
Wang Cheng seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and immediately asked: "Did those assassins report their family background and their background?"
The messenger lowered his head and thought for a while, then nodded: "As soon as they appeared, they said that they were ordered by His Royal Highness to kill King Qin..."
"What? The assassin belongs to Xiao Jie?"
Wang Cheng's complexion changed drastically immediately, he was startled and frightened in his heart, and a chill ran down his back involuntarily.
Although he learned that Xiao Huang was assassinated and died, the first thought that popped up in his mind was that it was Xiao Jie's doing. After all, the only person in the world who wants Xiao Huang's life the most is Xiao Jie except himself.
But when he really knew that the assassin was sent by Xiao Jie, he still couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine, and fell into deep fear and anxiety in his heart for a while.
Xiao Jie's people were able to easily take Xiao Huang's life on his territory, and it is very likely that he will be the next person to assassinate.
No, even if I dig three feet into the ground in Guzang City, I must find out these assassins as soon as possible, and I must not let them threaten my life and safety.
But before that, Wang Cheng knew that he had one more thing to do right away.
"Wang Jing, immediately take someone with me to the Anxi Metropolitan Guard's Mansion."
Wang Jing couldn't help being startled when he heard the words, and then hurriedly dissuaded him: "Governor, think twice, the plot to assassinate the King of Qin is still at large, if they assassinate the Great Governor halfway..."
"What do you know?" Wang Cheng's complexion darkened, and he snapped, "I went to Xiao Huang's residence for my own purpose, you just need to do it, no need to talk too much!"
"The governor calm down, this subordinate knows that he has made a mistake, so he will make arrangements now."
Seeing that Wang Cheng was angry, Wang Jing didn't dare to persuade him anymore, he could only nod his head and admit his mistake.
What he didn't know was that Wang Cheng had to immediately go to Xiao Huang's mansion to snatch Xiao Huang's soldier amulets and seals, and he must not let these things fall into the hands of others, so as to rob him of the control of Liangzhou soldiers.
Moreover, he has been the governor of Liangzhou for so many years, and he has been assassinated several times. He knows that all assassins will make careful plans and arrangements in advance before the assassination, so that they can kill with one blow when they really do it. Therefore, Their assassination tonight was only aimed at Xiao Huang alone, but there was no danger of his life for the time being.
At this time, Wang Jing had already called out all the knife and axemen who had been hiding in various parts of the back house, and Wang Cheng was about to take these people away.
But Chief Shi Guo Xing seemed to have thought of something, hurriedly stopped in front of Wang Cheng, winked in the direction of the front yard, and said with some embarrassment: "General Governor, if there is such a big battle, I'm afraid it will attract criticism. "
Wang Cheng was taken aback for a moment, and then he realized that tonight was the full moon wine in the Guo Mansion. All the officials of Guzang City gathered in the front courtyard. Appearing, I'm afraid that these officials will not say anything at that time, but they don't know how they will slander themselves in private.
He thought for a while, and then said to Wang Jing, the captain of the personal army: "Wang Jing, you take thirty people and leave with me through the back door, and the others stay in Guo's mansion for now."
Subconsciously, Wang Jing wanted to persuade him again, but seeing the displeasure on Wang Cheng's face, he could only forcefully swallow the words that had come to his lips, nodding repeatedly in response.
……
Xiao Huang's Dadu Protector's Mansion was not too far away from Guo's Mansion, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Wang Cheng appeared outside the Dadu Protector's Mansion with a group of personal soldiers.
I don't know if Xiao Huang's personal soldiers have already brought Xiao Huang's body back. Before Wang Cheng entered the mansion, he felt the atmosphere inside was a bit sad. Even the soldiers guarding the mansion gate showed their faces. The color of panic and confusion.
"I heard that your highness was assassinated?"
Wang Cheng stood on the steps in front of the gate of Dadu Hufu, and asked in a cold voice.
All the soldiers looked up at Wang Cheng, and no one answered his words, but the sadness and anxiety on their faces already explained everything.
Wang Cheng didn't bother to talk nonsense with them anymore, and said directly: "Forget it, the old man went in to see his situation."
While speaking, Wang Cheng directly led a group of personal soldiers into the Dadu Protectorate, and none of the soldiers at the gate dared to stop them.
Naturally, Wang Cheng was no stranger to the Protectorate of the Capital, and he walked quickly towards the study with his soldiers who were familiar with the road. Along the way, he encountered many panic-stricken servants and maidservants, but no one dared to interrogate or stop them a group of people.
Soon, Wang Cheng and his group came to the inner house, as long as they walked through a one-acre yard, they could walk to Xiao Huang's study.
Different from other places in the mansion, this courtyard was unusually quiet, and there was no one in sight.
But at this moment, Wang Cheng's mind was full of rushing to the study to snatch the soldier talisman and the seal, he didn't notice the strangeness of the courtyard at all, and without stopping for a moment, he quickly walked into the dark and deserted courtyard with his personal soldiers.
But no sooner had the group of them entered the courtyard than the courtyard door behind them closed abruptly, and immediately after, another courtyard door in front of them also closed...
There was a sudden change, and before Wang Cheng and others could react, a burst of flames burst into the sky from the surrounding walls, and a large number of black soldiers appeared on the top of the wall. Each soldier was holding a torch in one hand and a bow and crossbow in the other. They in the middle of the yard...
"Great governor, it's not good, there is an ambush among us!"
It was Wang Jing who was the first to react, and hurriedly joined other soldiers to protect Wang Cheng in the middle.
"It's only now that I know I've been tricked, isn't it too late?"
At this moment, a joking voice came from a wall, which sounded very familiar.
Wang Cheng saw the other person's face clearly with the help of the firelight on the wall, his pupils shrank violently in an instant, and he blurted out in disbelief: "Xiao Huang!"
When he heard the news that Xiao Huang was assassinated halfway, Wang Cheng couldn't believe his ears.
He planned to kill Xiao Huang in the Guo residence, but he was assassinated and died before he arrived.
The person who came to report the news nodded heavily, and said decisively: "The villain was ordered by the governor to follow his car all the way from Qin Wang's mansion, and saw with his own eyes that his car was ambushed by a group of assassins in the middle of the melee.
