Quick Travel: Saving the Cannon Fodder Male Supporting Role
Chapter 201 Cannon Fodder in the Empress’s Story (35)
Shen Huan appeared next to him in time, protecting him while watching the chaos off the field.
From visual inspection, there were at least three groups of people. The second and third princes were all surrounded and beaten. The others were also not relaxed, either pretending or really. In short, judging from the scene, it seemed that someone was going to kill them all.
Just when the fight spread to the officials' families, a large number of royal guards suddenly rushed out from the front and back of the imperial garden. They quickly captured all the troublemakers and escorted them to the center.
"Your Highness, all the assassins have been captured. Please show mercy to your Highness."
Xiao Yansui glanced at his royal brothers. Two of them were slightly injured, but the others were intact.
There were three waves of assassins caught. One team was dancing girls, and their target was the second prince.
One team is a gangster, taking money from people, and the target of the assassination is the Sixth Prince, and at the same time, they want to kill His Highness the Prince of Tang.
There was also a team of dead waiters, whose targets were the Three Emperors and His Highness Prince Tang. Those dead waiters committed suicide by swallowing medicine as soon as they were caught, and no one was caught alive.
Xiao Yansui looked at Xiao Yu, who looked as usual, with very complicated emotions in his heart.
He remembered that among all the princes, only the second brother had a dead assistant, who was given to him by his father. Now that he is using those people to fight for the throne, is he worthy of his father?
Xiao Yan then said loudly: "Where is Jing Zhaoyin?"
Mr. Jingzhao Yinyang, who had been replaced, stood up and said, "Wei Chen is here."
"Follow Jing Zhaoyin and Dali Temple to investigate the Mid-Autumn Festival assassination. Within seven days, I must catch the real culprit."
"Yes."
With things like this, the palace banquet could no longer continue. Xiao Yansui found an excuse to leave early. The civil and military officials were frightened, and some were injured or even died on the spot. In the next period of time, things will only get worse. Unrest.
Xiao Yansui lived in the palace for a while, but this is the emperor's territory after all. Xiao Yue used to have some concubines in his house, but now they are all nobles in the harem. Living in the palace can easily cause unnecessary conflicts. .
In addition, he was really in a bad mood today, so he wanted to go back to the palace.
The two of them sat in a carriage, and the guards drove the carriage and ran towards the palace slowly.
The moon is particularly round tonight. It is indeed the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival. The dark earth is covered with a layer of silver frost under the moonlight, which looks a bit beautiful.
But if you look at it from another angle, it would be a murderous night with a dark moon and high wind.
The sound of breaking through the air sounded from all directions, and the horse stopped suddenly, pacing restlessly on the spot, dodging the arrows in panic.
"My lord, there is an assassin!"
Xiao Yan said casually that he heard it.
He held Shen Huan down and was about to say something when Shen Huan said first, "Hide in the car and don't come out."
After she finished speaking, she got off the carriage directly.
After those people released a batch of arrows, they rushed over with long swords and broadswords. They were dressed in black clothes and covered with black veils. Neither men nor women could see clearly, let alone who they were from.
Shen Huan didn't have the heart to know. She grabbed a handful of arrows that had been shot on the car curtain and shot them towards the side of the road. The arrows were like being fired from a big bow, with overwhelming force and unstoppable force.
There were several muffled sounds over there, and four or five killers fell to the ground in a row.
Others continued to follow suit. Shen Huan took the guard's sword, flew up to meet them, and got entangled with those people.
Compared with the guards in the Tang Dynasty, these killers use swordsmanship and swordsmanship more for killing people. They don't have many tricks to speak of, and they only take lives if they have the chance.
Shen Huan's fighting style was the same, even more brutal than theirs. She usually didn't use a lot of force, and one sword was not enough to kill people, but it would make them suffer more.
A killer rushed toward the carriage with a sword. Shen Huan's long sword stabbed his wrist and raised it sharply. If he hadn't let go quickly, both of the killer's hands would have been chopped off.
She chased his face with her long sword, and the killer kept backing up. After hearing the noise behind him, he turned and ran away. Shen Huan tapped the ground twice, and rose into the air, arriving faster than him. In that position, the sword blade was prepared for him at the same time.
"Pfft", the sound of the sword sinking into the flesh was inexplicably pleasant. Shen Huan pulled the sword back with force and turned to deal with the others.
The guards were also helping. A quarter of an hour later, not many of the killers were left. Seeing all their companions fall, they were even more shocked and turned and ran away.
One person wanted to climb over the wall of the courtyard next to him. Shen Huan threw the hilt of his sword at him and hit him on the back. The man couldn't control himself and fell down. He fell to the ground with stars in his eyes. The others rushed up and stopped him in time. He wanted to commit suicide and arrested people at the same time.
Xiao Yan will be assassinated every now and then.
If Shen Huan hadn't been here, he would have died countless times.
He couldn't fight openly, but he secretly wanted to find someone to kill him but couldn't. Instead, their blocking of letters between the northwest and the capital was quickly discovered. Although someone was acting as a scapegoat, it was not an option to keep pestering him like this.
The third prince was the first to make a move.
He got a bloody corpse from nowhere, with Xiao Yue's jade finger on the corpse's finger, brought it to the court, and told the civil and military officials that Xiao Yue was dead and they wanted to choose a new emperor.
No one else believed it, so the third prince asked someone to call one of Xiao Yue's concubines and ask her to identify her.
Xiao Yue did not have a crown prince or a crown prince Liangdi. The only person who could prove his identity at this moment was the Empress Dowager Li in the harem except for these concubines.
Empress Dowager Li was still praying for the late emperor in Huguo Temple. No one else wanted her to come back, so after careful identification, the concubine cried and said that the person in the coffin was the emperor.
This is obviously a trap.
Xiao Yansui didn't know how to refute for a while. According to the third prince, since the emperor was dead, a new emperor should be elected now.
Xiao Yan was thinking about stalling for time, and then said: "The emperor is not a person who leaves no escape route. If he is really in danger, he will definitely leave a message. Where did the third emperor brother find this... body? Why don't we find the emperor again? No imperial edict left?"
The third prince was very good at acting, but the concubine found another imperial edict on his body and blatantly faked it, just because Xiao Yue did not dare to confront him, and the second prince would be suppressed by him without military power.
Xiao Yan then couldn't bear it any longer: "Brother Three Emperors, I just received the Emperor's secret letter yesterday. I will not pursue such ridiculous actions. Everything will come to an end when the Emperor comes back."
The third prince walked to the middle with a arrogant look on his face: "Eighth brother, are you saying that I have deceived you and ignored your superiors? Then who knows whether your secret letter is true or false? Everyone around the emperor has said that this body is the emperor's. , the emperor passed away, the top priority is to bury him properly and establish a new emperor. I know that the eighth brother wants to delay time and ascend to the throne himself, but the late emperor’s decree is for me to..."
"shut up!"
