The reborn king is ferocious

Chapter 43 The King's Assassination
Seeing Luo Qingchen's gaze turned to him in doubt, the man made a please gesture and helped her into the car.

After Luo Qingchen got into the car, she kept looking at the people walking hurriedly on both sides of the street, to see if it was possible to see Mrs. Zhang.

But the man sat across from her and kept looking at her. After waiting for a long time, Luo Qingchen didn't ask any questions. He said a little bored: "Don't you have anything to ask?"

Luo Qingchen glanced at him, and there was a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

He coughed dryly: "Hey, how old are you? Why do you look like an old lady with asceticism. Don't you wonder where this driver came from, and who am I?"

Luo Qingchen also wanted to know, but she would not reveal her emotions to a man she hadn't even seen, even though this man had just depended on her life and death.

She has seen men's sweet talk, vows of eternal love, and vows that last forever, but the man she once trusted so much has ruthlessly plotted how to make her die.

Her husband's betrayal and hypocrisy are her unforgettable pain.

Men can't be trusted, and love is just a cloud.

Even if he is fighting for you at this moment, who knows if the knife in his hand will be aimed at your vitals the next moment?For the desire for power, men are more eager and desperate than women!

Seeing that Luo Qingchen ignored him at all, the man laughed at himself, and stopped talking.

Pedestrians on the street have cleared a lot. Although Luo Qingchen and the others' carriage were not moving fast, they finally came to the altar, but there was no one there.

The coachman Xiao Cui is a capable young man, with bright peach blossom eyes, quick-witted and vigilant, without Luo Qingchen and the others telling him, he will find someone to inquire about the situation, and when he comes back, he will report to them one by one.

The man Xiao Cui called Xiaotian resumed his old man's attire, he didn't speak after hearing Xiao Cui's return, but just watched Luo Qingchen's reaction.

Luo Qingchen looked out through the curtain of the car, there were quite a few shoes on the ground, all of which were lost by the crowd in a panic, and there were hardly any people in this place except for some imperial troops who were still cleaning up the streets.

"Let's go to another place." Luo Qingchen ordered.

Xiao Cui didn't move, just looked at Xiao Tian.

"Just do as she says." Xiaotian spoke, and Xiaocui raised his whip.

Coincidentally, a group of imperial guards was walking this way, and seeing Xiao Cui raising his whip, he felt that the coachman was about to leave in a hurry because he saw them, and at this time, the common people were afraid to avoid them, so it was really suspicious why there were still people running here .

So the captain shouted to this side: "The carriage over there stops."

"Xiao Tian." Xiao Cui whispered outside.

Xiao Tian looked outside, the imperial guards seemed to be newly dispatched, they were all unfamiliar faces, so he said, "Let them check."

"Yes." Xiao Cui obediently stopped the carriage.

Xiaotian suddenly rushed to Luo Qingchen's side, pressed her head on his thigh, and took off his coat to cover her head.

Luo Qingchen struggled for a while, only to hear him say: "If you want to get rid of them quickly, you can listen to me."

It seemed that he had a way to deal with it, and Luo Qingchen became quiet.

At this time, the imperial guards came to the car and asked where the car came from, what they were doing here, and who was in the car. Xiao Cui got out of the car and walked aside to answer.

And the captain of the forbidden army unceremoniously raised the curtain of the car with a spear in his hand, and saw an old man with white beard and hair holding a young girl on his lap and looked at them with some horror.

"Master Jun, what are you—" Xiaotian's voice seemed old and trembling.

It's not that he can't disguise his voice, why didn't he hide it from Luo Qingchen before, but he didn't say a word in front of Zhen Guogong and his son?
Luo Qingchen felt strange.Did he feel no need to hide something from her?But they are afraid of the voice that is being concealed, Lord Zhen Guo and the others will still recognize him by grasping the flaws?

So did she know this person?Are they more familiar with Zhen Guogong?A thought flashed in Luo Qingchen's mind, but she felt that it was impossible.

She was surrounded by Xiaotian, and those imperial guards couldn't see her appearance, so the captain looked at Xiaotian, and then carefully looked in the carriage. There was nothing suspicious, so he pointed at Luo Qingchen and asked: "Old man, who is this?"

"My daughter." Xiaotian sighed sadly: "I don't know what happened last night, she suddenly had a fever and talked nonsense, and a rash appeared on her body. Others said she had chickenpox. Bah! How could she have that thing at such a big age?"

Xiaotian said angrily, and the captain of the forbidden army widened his eyes: "What did you say? She, did she have chickenpox?"

Xiaotian nodded seriously, and said with a serious look: "It dragged on all night, I think she is getting worse, and the neighbors want me to take it to the most famous Huichun Medical Center in the north of the city to have a look, so I ..."

The captain flicked the curtain of the car hastily, and jumped aside: "Don't hurry up? Isn't this going to kill someone? Let me tell you, don't come out until you are cured."

Chickenpox is an infectious disease in Tianqiong, so it's no wonder that the captain of the imperial army didn't even look at Luo Qingchen, for fear of spreading the disease.

They also checked the carriage and saw that Xiaotian was an old man, and the woman in the carriage was sick, so she could not be an assassin, so they stopped questioning him.

Xiao Cui was also driven back to the carriage by them, and the imperial guards tried their best to urge them to leave as soon as possible.

The carriage passed through the altar and drove north into the street, Luo Qingchen lifted the clothes on her head, sat up, and deliberately made it the farthest from Xiaotian.Xiaotian curled his lips, took the clothes and sat across from him to put them on.

Xiao Cui told Luo Qingchen and Xiaotian about the situation he inquired about just now.

It turned out that assassins had long planned to attack the king during the heaven sacrifice, but they were not on the side behind Luo Qingchen.

The explosives arranged over there are nothing more than a tactic.

When the explosives exploded, the people panicked and poured into the altar in large numbers. The guards naturally chose the relatively calm west to protect the king and evacuate.

And the assassin was hiding among the common people in the west, and when the king's chariot passed by, he violently assassinated.

At that time, although there were many forbidden troops around the king, in the chaos, those generals and ministers were not around. At this time, there was only a third-rank general by his side, and he didn't have much experience, especially in such a complicated situation. , has long messed up his hands and feet.

Naturally, those assassins chose favorable terrain, disguised themselves as civilians, and prepared themselves by the King's side before attacking suddenly, so the situation was extremely critical.

The imperial army was surrounded by unknown assassins or civilians, unable to move, and was assassinated many times. The king shouted in horror, but anyone who approached him suspiciously would be killed without mercy.

In this way, the approach of those assassins can be controlled as much as possible, but the innocent people around will be miserable, blood rains down and they scream.

Even so, the assassins falling from the roofs on both sides from time to time still posed a great threat to the king.

At a corner, half of the imperial guards protecting the king passed the corner, and half were still on the other side. The defense around the king was the weakest at this time.Dozens of black shadows ambushing on the roof jumped down, and the blades gleamed and struck straight at the king's head.

At this extremely critical moment, a group of imperial guards nimbly climbed up to the roof and galloped towards the king.A young general at the head saw the guards around the king fell down one after another, stopped immediately, opened his bow and set arrows, and shot again and again, the assassins around the king fell down one after another.

The forbidden army behind the young general also followed suit, protecting the king with bows and arrows, so that others could not approach.

After the crisis was resolved, the young general led his men to jump off the wall, forming an encirclement circle around the king.

The king was furious, he did not expect such a situation to happen today, ruined the whole ceremony, and put him in such a dangerous place. It's hard to say.

The fierce anger erupted from the king, and he pointed to the panicked people in front who didn't know where to break out: "Kill, kill, kill, they are all assassins, and they all want my king's life!"

The young general froze for a moment, and the king stared fiercely at him with murderous eyes, and he hurriedly replied: "Yes."

In this battle, there was no distinction between the enemy and us. Amidst the cries of the common people, many innocent lives were killed in vain. In the end, the king was slaughtered in peace. glory.

After returning to the palace, the king not only ordered people to quickly investigate the truth of the assassination, but also dismissed a series of ministers who were disloyal in defending the king in times of crisis.

The king was sitting on the high dragon chair, and there seemed to be chills coming from there, and there was no sound in the hall, listening to his furious rebuke of the infidelity of the courtiers, many people trembled and sweated profusely.

After the officials who were punished were removed from their official robes and handed over their official seals on the spot, the king slapped his dragon chair and stood up angrily, saying, "Hmph, don't think that if this king punishes them, all of you will be safe. Don't use the wrong method." I am responsible for everyone to figure out this king’s intentions. This time, this king is only giving you a chance to repent. If the same thing happens again next time, even if no one in this hall can stand and walk out, this king will never be like today. In this way, I am merciful and let you eat the king's salary for nothing, but you can't do anything useful."

Since the king became a believer, he has been suspicious and his temper has become increasingly irritable. He can do what he says for sure. Right now, everyone is saving their lives. Next time...

This time only three were honored by the king.

When Fu Tao and his son had an accident at the altar, they rushed to the king as soon as possible, and obeyed the dispatch to find the celestial master, which made the dragon's heart happy, and rewarded the father and son of the town.

However, that carriage belonged to Wang Hanlin, and if he failed to guard his own carriage and deposed him as a civilian, the king was merciless at all.

Although the celestial master said after waking up that the pair of people pretending to be grandparents rescued him with a carriage, but was it possible for ordinary people to deal with the imperial army for so long and escape from Duke Zhen?The identities of those two people are very suspicious.
