Rebirth as Princess Jin again

Chapter 139 Division of Troops

Su Ying glanced at the mottled blood on the ground, and the expression on her face gradually softened: "What does the prince plan to do with those corpses?"

Situ Jin wiped the blood on his hands with a handkerchief: "Of course I will send it to my father so that he can take a good look at it."

Jiaoyang showed doubts on his face: "Since the emperor wants his father to know about this, why not keep him alive?"

Su Ying reached out and picked up a pill on the ground, put it to the tip of her nose and smelled it. A flash of light flashed in her eyes: "It's poison. Even if you catch them, they will bite the poison pill in their mouths and commit suicide."

Jiaoyang looked at the big white tiger beside him and said, "What should I do with this big white tiger?"

Xiao Feng took off the rope from his waist and tied the white tiger to the horse.

A few people walked out of the dense forest, the hunting had just ended, and the sky was gradually getting dark.

People from all walks of life returned home with full loads.

The grassland opened up and bonfires were lit.

Everyone presented the prey, and Situ Lin saw the tiger on Xiao Feng's horse at a glance.

"This... Who shot this tiger? It was able to hit the tiger's heart. Such archery skills and skills are extraordinary."

Xiao Feng stepped forward and reported: "Your Majesty, this is what His Highness Prince Jin hunted."

Situ Lin's face was filled with joy and he praised: "Lao Qi is so brave and invincible on the battlefield. I didn't expect that his archery skills are so superb."

The Queen on the side smiled majestically: "Your Majesty, with a resourceful and brave prince like Lao Qi, he will be able to sleep peacefully in the future."

The queen's words seemed to praise Situ Jin, but in fact they directly planted the seeds of doubt in the emperor's heart. Although Situ Jin pacified southern Xinjiang, he never had real power in his hands. The queen's words were undoubtedly telling Situ Lin that if Situ Jin was given real power, Sooner or later, this tiger will become the biggest threat next to his bed.

Situ Jin looked at the queen coldly, with a cold smile on his lips: "My son is just relying on my father's blessing. The stability of Xia Zhaoguo completely depends on my father's wise decision-making. In the hearts of the people, a wise king like my father is Xia Zhaoguo's best." cornerstone."

"Father, you don't know how dangerous it was when we fought this tiger just now. There was actually an assassin in the forest. If Xiao Feng and the emperor's brother hadn't protected me and the emperor's wife, I almost wouldn't have been able to see my father. Alright." A clear voice spread from the crowd.

Jiao Yang stepped forward to Situ Lin, stretched out his hand and took his arm to act coquettishly.

Situ Lin saw traces of blood stained on the white down of her clothes, and his expression changed slightly: "Is this happening? The entrance to this hunting ground is heavily guarded, and the other three sides are surrounded by cliffs. Where did the assassin come from?"

Jiaoyang showed an aggrieved look on his face and unfolded the wounds on his hands in front of Situ Lin: "Look, my hands were injured just now because I was trying to protect myself."

Situ Lin's face was ashen and he shouted to the people around him to call the leader of the guards here. At the same time, Situ Jin also ordered people to carry out the bodies of the assassins.

After a while, a general wearing armor came over.

"My guards are here to see the Emperor!"

The guard is a domestic servant in the guard camp. He has been with the guard since he was a child. Now he is the deputy commander of the Kyoto Guard and the right-hand man of the guard camp.

"Guard, today King Jin and Princess Jiaoyang were assassinated in the hunting ground. I have entrusted the safety of the entire hunting ground to you. You have issued a military order in front of me. Now that King Jin and Princess Jiaoyang are assassinated, what do you do? What are you talking about?"

The guard knelt on the ground and was shocked when he saw a row of corpses on the ground. These people were indeed secret guards of the Wei family.

He glanced at Situ Jin and Jiao Yang, and saw the two of them standing in front of him, and he was sure that they were not injured.

He felt ashamed and said: "Your Majesty, it is my lax supervision. Please punish me."

Situ Jin's eyes moved slightly: "Deputy Commander Wei, look at these assassins, all of them are highly skilled in martial arts. If the target they assassinate today is not the king and the princess, but the father, do you think that just by your lax supervision? Exonerated?"

The guard did not expect that Situ Jin would refer this matter to Situ Lin. Situ Lin was suspicious by nature. As an emperor, what he fears most is that people around him have inappropriate thoughts. He immediately retorted: "His Royal Highness King Jin's words are too much." It's too alarmist, how can you say something that is unfounded?"

Jiaoyang grabbed Situ Lin's sleeve, pointed at the guard and said, "Father, look at this slave. The emperor is right. He can't even protect a small hunting ground. How dare you put the guard down to such a person?" The important task of the capital is entrusted to him, how can such a person deserve the trust of the emperor?"

Situ Lin's provocation made Situ Lin think differently. His face turned livid: "Guard, King Jin is right. You have been checking this hunting ground for half a month, and yet you still let him in at this moment. I don't want to hear about it." You explain, come here, pull him down and beat him with a hundred military sticks. I think you are enough as a commander, so I will step down from your position today and go and receive your punishment."

The guard clenched his fists tightly, unwilling but helpless.

The queen was so anxious that sweat broke out on her face. Yesterday, the Wei family had only lost one-third of its property. The Wei family had been severely damaged. If they lost their guards again today, the position of deputy commander would be given to someone else. If you sit down, the control of the Kyoto guards is equivalent to handing over one-third.

She was about to speak when Su Quan stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, the position of deputy commander of the Kyoto Guard is very important. The Wei family has controlled the position of Kyoto Guard for many years. Now that both the prince and the princess can be attacked by assassins, it is enough to see that the Wei family The battalion commander has neglected his duties, and if the Wei family is allowed to hold the position of deputy commander again, the safety of the emperor and the people of the entire capital will be in great danger!"

Situ Lin thought for a while and asked: "According to Su Aiqing's wishes, is there a suitable candidate to recommend?"

When the Queen saw this, she immediately said: "Your Majesty, this is just an accident. General Wei Ying has commanded the Kyoto Guard Camp for many years and has never made any mistakes. This matter..."

Before the Queen finished speaking, Su Quan said calmly: "The Queen, the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics."

The queen choked for a moment and looked at Su Quan angrily.

Su Quan stepped forward and cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty, do you still remember Wang Hu, this year's number one martial arts champion? This man is highly skilled in martial arts. Because there was no vacancy before, he was on duty in the Imperial Guard. Now if he can be given the post of deputy commander of the Kyoto Guard, If this person is in charge, he will be able to do it!"

Xiao Feng then remembered his colleague Wang Hu when he first entered the palace, and couldn't help but think of the many times he took care of him in the palace. It turned out that this person was actually the number one scholar in the martial arts examination.

At this moment, the assistant on the side presented the examination results of the dead bodies: "Your Majesty, these people are all trained dead soldiers. They have venom sacs in their mouths. It should be snake venom, which is composed of various snake venoms. Once poisoned, they will immediately Killed."

Situ Lin had a stunned expression on his face and asked, "Are you sure it's snake venom?"

Wuzuo cupped his hands and replied: "I've had it checked by the imperial doctor, and it's indeed snake venom!"

Situ Lin couldn't help but think of a case that happened in the palace back then, in which he also died of snake poison.

His breathing became a little rapid, and he felt as if his breath was being strangled by something. He panted slightly and said, "The position of deputy commander will be held by Wang Hu."
