Tiantang Splendid

Chapter 2298 The Emperor Was Assassinated
The scorching sun is blocked by the grass hut, the wind blows through the continuous corn field, carrying the breath of vegetation and soil, and the canal next to the grass hut is gurgling, moistening the dry land.

The afternoon was short and leisurely.

An old man and a young man sat in the hut, eating snacks, drinking tea, and talking happily.

Although Fang Jun is hard at work on Confucian classics, but after all, time is short, how can he be compared with Kong Yingda and other great Confucians who compiled "Five Classics of Justice"?However, the knowledge he has learned is quite complicated, and any subject is enough to be unrivaled in the world. The knowledge accumulated in the age of information explosion is not comparable to that of the ancients who have not even read a few books, so I will discuss it with Kong Yingda Astronomy and geography, but not at all timid.

Although Kong Yingda is a great Confucianist in the world, he is definitely not a pedantic person who only knows "dropping book bags". He has dabbled in military strategists, doctors, and even yin and yang families. It is extremely speculative to agree or refute.

The sun is fading and the sun is shining brightly.

A rush of horseshoes broke the tranquility in the thatched cottage. Fang Jun and Kong Yingda shook their heads and looked along the road. They saw a few horses galloping forward, and their bowl-sized iron hooves stepped on the concrete road, making a crisp sound. .

Fang Jun frowned slightly, and recognized Wei Ying and the two parts. What happened?

Several fine horses came to the outside of the thatched cottage like lightning, and the knight immediately reined in the reins, jumped off the horse, trotted to Fang Jun, knelt down on one knee, and said in a loud voice: "Erlang returned to Beijing quickly, the palace just now There is news that His Majesty has been assassinated!"

"what?"

Fang Jun was taken aback, got up suddenly, and asked, "How's the situation?"

Kong Yingda next to him was also taken aback. If something unexpected happened to His Majesty, although it would not be as violent as in the last years of the Sui Dynasty, it would still be enough to cause unpredictable shocks in the officialdom. The current prosperous and prosperous world may collapse in an instant. .

Wei Ying said: "The specific situation is not yet known."

Fang Jun's heart tightened, he looked back at Kong Yingda, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Chong Yuan, let's go back to Beijing together?"

Kong Yingda had already stood up, nodded and said, "Let's go back together."

The assassination of the emperor is a big deal. At this moment, the city of Chang'an must be on the verge of swords and swords, and it is unknown what changes will be caused by it.

There are also many ambitious people in the current court. These people are usually restless. Who knows what they will do now?

For example, Changsun Wuji, who has been premeditating Yi Chu, or Li Yuanjing, King of Jing, who has always been restless...

*****
Kong Yingda's ox cart was too slow, and Fang Jun couldn't wait, so he left two parts to escort Kong Yingda's ox cart, while he himself apologized and led Wei Ying to gallop back to Chang'an.

Seeing from afar the banners of Chunming Gate fluttering, the gates of the city open, merchants and people coming and going in and out, Fang Jun's heart was finally relieved.

Since the four gates have not been blocked, it proves that His Majesty Li Er is not in serious trouble, otherwise the whole pass will be under martial law now...

After entering the city, they rushed all the way to Chengtian Gate, and happened to meet Changsun Wuji who came in a hurry. The two stood together outside Chengtian Gate, looked at each other, and turned their faces away at the same time.

The guards outside Chengtian Gate were sweating a little, and they shook the handle of the horizontal knife in their hands, watching their noses, noses, noses and hearts, not daring to breathe.

Now everyone knows that these two are at odds. Changsun Wuji used to have power over the world. Even though he is now alienated by the emperor, he is still an important minister in the court. His status is only lower than that of Li Ji. It was worse.And Fang Jun became even more famous. The First Battle of Mobei made him an outstanding feat, and established his position in the court. He is a well-deserved leader in the army except Li Ji, and he is admired and admired by countless soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. .

If these two people start a quarrel outside the Chengtian Gate, once these little guards hurt Chi Yu, they won't be able to eat and walk around...

Fortunately, both of them were not focused on fighting qi, they were worried about His Majesty Li Er's situation, and ignored each other.

After the servant went to report and returned, the two of them were invited to enter the palace, and the imperial guard let out a long sigh...

Dragon Palace.

Changsun Wuji and Fang Jun entered the main hall one by one, and saw His Majesty Li Er sitting behind the desk, his face was gloomy, but his complexion was good, and his bright yellow robes were neat and clean, and he didn't look like he had been seriously injured... …

Fang Jun's heart relaxed, and the eldest grandson Wuji beside him rushed forward a few steps, then his voice was choked up, and he asked quickly, "Is your majesty's dragon body healthy?"

Anxiety and worry are beyond words.

The corner of Fang Jun's mouth twitched, and he cursed inwardly: Lick the dog...

In fact, this wronged Changsun Wuji, he and His Majesty Li Er fell in love with each other, and at the moment he was really worried about His Majesty Li Er's safety.

In any case, the friendship that has been side by side for decades may have differences in the face of family interests, but in the face of life and death, all grievances are insignificant.

Although the nobles of Guanlong dreamed of wresting some power from His Majesty Li Er, they absolutely did not want any accidents to happen to His Majesty Li Er. Saying is the cruelest blow...

Seeing the worried look on Changsun Wuji's face, His Majesty Li Er warmed his heart, and said softly, "Don't worry about the auxiliary machine, I am the Son of Dragon, how can I be hurt by Xiaoxiao? It's just a few bodyguards trying to kill me." , have already won and awaited the death penalty, there is no need to worry.”

Fang Jun took two steps forward, and said sincerely: "Your Majesty's auspicious person and celestial appearance will surely turn disaster into good fortune. It is really the blessing of my great Tang's hundreds of millions of people. I hope my emperor will have his best wishes and live forever!"

The corner of Changsun Wuji's mouth twitched: A courtier...

His Majesty Li Er showed his face and said: "Don't say such flattering words, if you really flatter me a few words, I will really live forever?"

While speaking, the ministers of the DPRK and China arrived one after another, and Kong Yingda also rushed here out of breath, and rushed straight to the main hall one by one. Seeing that His Majesty Li Er was safe and sound, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Then naturally they are concerned about what is going on with this so-called "assassination"?

His Majesty Li Er obviously didn't want to say more, so he waved his hand, and Wang De, the chief servant, stood in front of the case and explained to the ministers in detail...

The matter is very simple, it's just that the two guards committed suicide by themselves.

His Majesty Li Er has always liked private visits in micro-clothes, walking around in ordinary clothes with a few guards. This behavior of "white dragon fish uniform" certainly allows His Majesty Li Er to get closer to the people's livelihood and find some relaxing fun, but for For the guards around him, it was extremely stressful.

As a guard, the duty is to protect the safety of the emperor, but the white dragon fish suit means that there are countless unpredictable factors that will hurt the emperor, whether it is an assassination by someone with ulterior motives, or a collision with the emperor by someone who does not know the truth, The guards are all guilty.

If the emperor made a slight mistake, they would have to be exiled into the army. If it was more serious, their lives would be in danger. If the emperor had a bad thing, maybe the whole family would suffer...

Therefore, His Majesty Li Er was very interested in the private visit of Weifu, but the guards around him were miserable, but they didn't dare to speak out, so they were naturally worried and angry.

The day before yesterday I observed the "escapement machine" made by Li Chunfeng from the Academy, and did not return to Chang'an after the incident, but led the guards to Jiucheng Palace, intending to stay for a few days.

As a result, when he arrived in Linyou, His Majesty Li Er became interested when he saw the beautiful mountains and rivers. He ordered his followers to go to Jiucheng Palace, and he brought a few guards to play in the county.

He was in a cheerful mood, but the guards were tense and did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

Guards are human too, who can bear this kind of dreadful life?Ever since, a guard named Diao Wenyi came up with a moth...

His Majesty Li Er went to play for a day, he was in a good mood, but he was also a little tired, so he stayed in an inn in Linyou that night.Lying on the bed and just closing his eyes, he suddenly heard a swishing sound, an arrow with carved feathers was shot right outside the clinical window, nailed to the edge of the window, and the tail of the arrow was trembling unceasingly.

His Majesty Li Er was taken aback, and sat up. At this time, several arrows pierced the window edge in succession. Fortunately, the angle was very biased, and they all shot to the wall on one side, but did not hurt. He doesn't.

Although His Majesty Li Er is an emperor and pampered, he was also a brave warrior who was able to lead [-] to [-] mysterious armored cavalry back then. He didn't panic at all. He raised his sword, opened the door and rushed to the back of the house, only to see the moonlight It was hazy, and there was no trace of the assailant.

The imperial guards begged His Majesty Li Er to return to Chang'an immediately, or rush to Jiucheng Palace, otherwise it would be too dangerous.

His Majesty Li Er was puzzled, but he was always brave and not afraid at all, so he didn't say anything.
