King of Song

Chapter 242 Who is the lady?

This night, Dong Zhan, who was not in the mood, was doomed to sleepless.

Ali Gu has already left, the mess in Qingtang City needs him to deal with the aftermath, and he is also indispensable to appease the envoys of the Song Dynasty!
Dong Zhan leaned weakly on the couch, closed his eyes involuntarily, a little tired, a little dizzy.

The envoys of the Song Dynasty were assassinated in the Tubo capital of Hehuang. After dawn, everyone would know about it, and the city would be full of disturbances.Tubo is ashamed this time, his face is dull!
Lin Zhao is fine, otherwise Dong Zhan really doesn't know how to explain to the emperor of Song Dynasty!
"Did he do this intentionally to drive me to a dead end?" Dong felt seemed to be talking to himself, but it seemed to be asking Duoji.

Dorji hesitated and said: "Zanpu, they are indeed the most suspected right now, but so far there is no conclusive evidence for this matter, it is just suspicion."

"But who else is there besides him? His suspicion is always the biggest!" Dong felt a little helpless, this matter really made people a little irritated.

Duoji reminded: "Zanpu, just now Ali Gu said that the envoy sent to the Song Dynasty was assassinated twice, first in the south of the city, and then in the center of the city. This seems to be a bit intriguing!"

"It's really interesting!" Dong felt was also thinking about this unusual phenomenon.

"Zanpu, this matter should be investigated carefully..." Duoji suggested in a low voice.

"That's natural, Ali Gu is already searching!"

Duoji hesitated and said: "The assassin came prepared, he must have chosen a retreat route, and the search may be of no avail. It will also cause disturbances in the city, and everyone knows..."

Dong felt helpless and forced a smile and said: "The matter has come to this point, it is useless to conceal it, and the fire cannot be covered with paper. That's good, at least it can scare the snake and make some people calm down. At the same time, it can be regarded as an explanation to the Song envoy. He was assassinated However, we are indifferent, and we can’t justify it both emotionally and rationally.”

"In this case, let's investigate with great fanfare!" Duoji put forward his own suggestion.

"Alright, then let Ali Gu go!"

But Duoji shook his head and said, "Zanpu, I suggest sending someone else. The one who was assassinated was the envoy Song, who is the most suspected one. In this matter, Ali Gu may not be able to settle down with a bowl of water, and he will leave people behind. of……"

Dong felt thought for a while, and found some reason, and immediately said: "That's right, then leave this matter to Qing Yi to make a ghost seal!"

"What about the polo team?"

"Is our Tubo Erlang's polo bad? It doesn't matter who hosts it?" Dong Zhan said in a deep voice: "Besides, the protagonists of this polo match are Song Dynasty and Xixia, so we don't care. What matters right now, I believe Qing Yijie Gui Zhang will not disappoint."

"You pay close attention to this matter, and go to condolences to the envoys of the Song Dynasty in my name tomorrow!" Dong Zhan felt a little tired, even though he knew that there was a young concubine waiting for him, he still couldn't arouse the slightest interest.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
At the Li Hotel, Liang Yibu sneezed several times.

At this moment, he was pacing back and forth in the room, like ants on a hot pot.

"Master Xiang, Lin Zhao is not dead, he escaped safely..."

"Waste, what a waste, such a good opportunity, so many people escaped for him!" Liang Yibu was very angry, and at the same time it was equivalent to admitting that today's assassination of Lin Zhao was arranged by him.

After being humiliated at the banquet that day, he has been aggrieved, unable to swallow his breath, thinking about how to take revenge.

Although as a majestic prime minister, one should have a corresponding mind and tolerance.But don't forget that Liang Yibu is only 30 years old, and he is still young and energetic.What's more, his background is not high, but because his sister was lucky enough to be favored by Li Liangzuo, he was able to become the uncle of the country and then the prime minister of the country.

This process is too fast, not enough for Liang Yibu to accumulate enough experience and cultivate a corresponding good attitude.On the contrary, because of his rapid promotion, he was envied by many people when he ascended to a high position.And Liang Yibu also wanted to prove himself, so he paid special attention to some things, and his mentality changed a little, so he couldn't bear the slightest grievance.

To put it bluntly, Liang Yibu is actually a political upstart in Xixia, and his background is too shallow.

Of course, the assassination of Lin Zhao was not just out of pure anger.At the same time, it is also a way to prevent problems before they happen. Lin Zhao's "Manjianghong" is majestic and ambitious, reaching Xixia.For some reason, he couldn't help being a little secretly startled, maybe one day, this young man will really become the enemy of Xi Xia.

That being the case, it is better to solve it early and nip the danger in the bud.

As for the risk of assassinating the Song envoy, he has considered it, as long as the arrangements are proper, proceed with caution.Even if everyone doubts themselves, what if there is no evidence?

At the same time, Liang Yibu also thought in reverse.He had just had a conflict with the Song envoy, and due to the hostile relationship between Song and Xia, once the Song envoy was assassinated, he would first suspect Xixia, so would the Xixia people take the risk of assassinating?It is entirely possible to use this inherent thinking to win with one shot.

Furthermore, Xixia's victory in the military operation on Huanqing Road gave him enough confidence, so what if he offends you Song Dynasty people?

As for the Tubo people, they are more comfortable and fearless.Once the envoys of the Song Dynasty were assassinated in Qingtang City, could Tubo easily separate the relationship?It was inevitable for the Song Dynasty to blame, and it happened to take this opportunity to draw the relationship between Tubo and Xixia closer.

Liang Yi buried his wishful thinking before he acted, and he had already imagined the cause and effect, so he took the risk.

After receiving the news today, Lin Zhao actually took only a few people out.Liang Yibu didn't know what Lin Zhao was going to do, but how could he miss such a god-given opportunity?
As a result, killers were immediately dispatched to ambush halfway to intercept and kill.

But he never expected that Lin Zhao had already suffered an assassination first, and his vigilance was high, and they had lost their surprise before they attacked.Unexpectedly, Lin Zhao brought back more than a dozen first-class masters to guard him desperately, making his assassination fall short.

It's a bit self-defeating now!
Now Qingtang City must list himself as the number one suspect. If it was just a one-time assassination, Liang Yi would not be afraid.However, there were two unintentional births, and the possibility of being a part of the Xixia people was greatly increased unintentionally.

Who is it that made the move in the south of the city?He ruined his own good deeds, so that he fell into such an embarrassing situation.

The young Song envoy will definitely not let it go, and the Tubo people will definitely have ideas, and there must be many things that will be pointed at him.

Thinking about it, Liang Yibu suddenly felt a little dizzy!
"There's nothing left at the scene, right?" This is what Liang Yibu cares most about right now, as long as there is no evidence, he will be ashamed to the end, and no one can do anything to himself!

"No, although some people died in battle, there is no flaw in the whole body, and they are all dressed up by people from the Northwest Song Dynasty!"

"That's good!" Liang Yibu felt relieved, and then asked again: "What about the rest of the people? Is the travel and Tibet reliable? I heard that Ali Gu and Sunan Dangzheng are searching with great fanfare!"

"Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, everything has already been arranged, don't worry!"

Liang Yi buried his head and said: "Be careful, it seems that the past few days have been busy!"

"Yes!"

Liang Yibu pondered for a moment, and then ordered: "Try to find a way to start an investigation, and try to find out who is behind the attack in the south of the city? I really want to know whether it is Lin Zhao who directed and acted himself and wanted to blame me, or someone else. Is there someone else plotting to do something wrong?"

To be honest, after the accident, Liang Yibu first thought so.What happened tonight was really a coincidence, and the matter has come to this point, so I can only try to make up for it.It seems that in the next few days, I have to find a time to see Dong Zhi, and it is time to tell him some important news.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the Li Hotel of the Song Dynasty, the doctors were bandaging the wounds of the injured Forbidden Army soldiers and followers.One of the best medical skills is being invited to treat Xin Wenzhe.

Taking advantage of this time, Su An came to find Lin Zhao.

"Son!"

"How is it? What's the problem?" Lin Zhao knew that Su An must have discovered something about today's situation.

Su An said: "There are two groups of people assassinating tonight, and the second time was determined to put people to death. But the first time..."

"how?"

"I feel..." Su An said: "I always feel that they are assassinating for the sake of assassination, even if we have casualties, it doesn't mean anything.

At that time, I felt that the other party didn't have a very strong idea at all, and wanted to take our lives!And after a little resistance, he immediately retreated, retreating despite the difficulties, which is completely different from the second time when he was chasing after him, it feels a little weird..."

"So there are two groups of people, right?" Lin Zhao asked in a deep voice.

"That's the theory!" Su An nodded and said, "But it's hard to say what the intentions of those people in front are..."

"The people behind are probably buried by Liang Yi!" Lin Zhao snorted coldly and said, "I'm curious now, who is the person in the south of the city?"

Although I already have some thoughts in my heart, this matter is of great importance and cannot be hasty.

Su An said: "I believe that the Tibetans have already started to investigate, and they will give an explanation."

"There will definitely be an explanation. Whether you are satisfied or not is hard to say!" Lin Zhao said with a cold expression, obviously very dissatisfied with this matter.

"Well, tomorrow you will go to the palace on my behalf and protest to Dong Feeling. It would be best if we could get someone to participate in the arrest of the murderer!" Lin Zhao felt that more pressure must be put on Dong Feeling, and being assassinated unintentionally is also a good opportunity , must make good use of it!
"Yes!"

At the end, Lin Zhao asked again: "By the way, do you have any other discoveries?"

Su An hesitated for a moment, and said: "The subordinates of Xin Qilang are very skilled, even above the Forbidden Army. I accidentally observed that they have many military tactics when they fight, which may come from the Western Army!"

"Western Army?" Lin Zhao was a little surprised!
"Yes, it feels like it!"

At this moment, the doctor opened the door and came out of Xin Wenzhe's room. Lin Zhao raised his eyebrows slightly. This time, it was time to have a good talk with her.

He was very curious, and wanted to see who this handsome girl was.
