Phoenix Hairpin - Chapter 578

[Chapter 578 Shocking Change (3)]

Li Yan was shocked and angry, and suddenly got up: “What did you say?”

The soldier’s voice was hurried, and he reported the words just now.

Li Yan was so angry that he scolded angrily: “Damn bastard! In broad daylight, the sky is bright, and he dares to commit murder. This is a conspiracy~reverse!”

Li Jing’s brows twitched, but his expression was calm, not panicked, and he was still in a mood to tease Li Yan: “It’s night, not broad daylight.”

“Don’t worry. With Commander Zuo and Lu Yi here, there won’t be any big trouble.”

Commander Zuo has been running around with the prince all these years, and he has already tempered it.

Not to mention Lu Yi, who is good at leading troops, and the prince concubine’s personal soldiers under his command are more brave than each other.

Li Yan was young and energetic, and when he heard such news, he couldn’t hold back, and couldn’t wait to say, “I’ll go out and have a look now.”

Without waiting for Li Jing to answer, he quickly rushed out.

In fact, Li Jing didn’t have the calm expression on his face in his heart.

As the saying goes, a dragon without a head can’t do it, and the words are not rough.

His prince was injured and lay on the bed, and everyone seemed to be missing the backbone.

And the other party dared to make a clear shot, and I don’t know how many people gathered in the darkness.

If you can’t resist…

The door was pushed open, and two young men walked in quickly.

Both of them are in their twenties, one with a gentle and elegant face, the other with extraordinary beauty, they are the official sons of the Eastern Palace, Zhan and Zhou Li.

Both of them were civil servants, and their horses and archery were mediocre, and they didn’t add up to a single dish.

This group of murderers dared to attack the Governor’s Mansion at night, and it was useless for them to go out, so they simply came to accompany the prince.

“Don’t be afraid, Your Highness,” Fang Zi Zhan Lichi comforted the prince calmly: “Several fires have been quickly put out.”

Zhou Li immediately picked up the conversation: “Leader Zuo leads the troops to guard the main gate and two side gates, and Commander Lu leads the troops to guard the surrounding walls. It is guaranteed that no gangster can enter the Governor’s Mansion. Moreover, Commander Lu has already sent people out of the house quickly. , go to the Jiangnan garrison barracks to deliver the letter. Soon General Luo will bring reinforcements.”

In the Jiangnan area, of course, there are garrisoned troops.

And there are 30,000 troops stationed there.

Among the garrisoned troops in the Great Wei, there were the most soldiers and the most weapons.

Can be regarded as an elite soldier.

The commander of the Jiangnan Barracks, surnamed Luo.

After the prince came to Jiangnan, the first person to call was General Luo.

Fang Zizhan and Zhou Li had both seen the tall and brave General Luo. When they mentioned him at this time, their voices were full of confidence: “The garrison barracks is a hundred miles away. After two or three hours, the reinforcements should arrive.”

Li Jing glanced at them and said with deep meaning, “General Luo may not be here before dawn.”

What does this mean?

Fang Zizhan and Zhou Li looked at each other, a thought flashed through their minds at the same time, and they each took a breath.

“What do you mean by this, Your Highness?” Fang Zi Zhan Jun’s face turned pale and his voice trembled slightly: “Could it be that there is something wrong with this General Luo?”

Zhou Li was stronger than Fang Zizhan, and barely steadied himself: “There is no one else here, please speak bluntly, Your Highness!”

A cool breeze suddenly blew through the gaps in the window lattice, and the candles on the table were shaken.

Li Jing’s handsome face was shrouded in candlelight, and his eyes were deep: “We have been in Jiangnan for a few months, and we have thoroughly investigated the illicit salt issue. The big fish has been hiding in the bottomless water.”

“The Jiangnan old clan colluded with most of the officials in the Jiangnan officialdom. Do you think that the Jiangnan military camp with 30,000 elite soldiers will be clean?”

“A month ago, Governor Xie’s people found out that General Luo had a secret relationship with the Jiangnan old clan. General Luo had fertile fields and eight large houses in Jiangnan, and raised more than a dozen concubines like flowers and jade. The opera troupe has only two. He is arrogant and extravagant, and he has everything. He is just an ordinary general, and with only the Luo family’s background and court salary, how can he afford his profligacy?”

“I have long suspected that he was linked with the Jiangnan old clan, and has been searching for evidence in private.”

“This assassination may have something to do with him.”

“If General Luo came to rescue when he heard the news, that’s all.

If he has a different intention, he will deliberately delay.

”

Fang Zizhan and Zhou Li looked at each other and saw the panic and anger in each other’s eyes.

If… if the perpetrator also has a share of General Luo, then tonight would be really dangerous.

A governor’s mansion, five thousand elite soldiers, can really protect the prince?

Boom!

Out of nowhere came a loud drumbeat.

Then, the swoosh swishes incessantly.

Anyone who has been on the battlefield knows that this is the sound of arrows emitting in unison.

Immediately, some people were shot and screamed, and some people shouted, “There’s a fire here, come and fight the fire.”

The originally vague movement became more and more clear.

It can also be seen that the offensive from outside is getting more and more violent.

…

Zhou Li thought for a while, and said in a low voice, “Your Highness, Governor Xie and the others are still locked in the courtyard? Would you like to invite them all to His Highness? Your Highness has a lot of soldiers here, so it is the safest.”

This suggestion is appropriate.

The assassination has not yet been thoroughly investigated, and Governor Xie and a few others have been implicated, and they will have to wait for a decision in the future.

Li Jinglue nodded: “Okay, you can invite them over immediately.” After a pause, he added: “The three inspectors Jiang will continue to be locked up, please come to my room, Governor Xie.”

After a stick of incense, Governor Xie, who was full of fear and anger, knelt in front of Li Jing’s bed with tears in his eyes: “I really have no face to see Your Highness.”

For more than half a month, Governor Xie’s life was never easy, his eyes were bloodshot and his face was haggard.

The beautiful beard that used to be proud of, is no longer in the mood to take care of it.

Together, they look rather sloppy.

Governor Xie, who was over forty years old, knelt in front of the bed and cried so hard that it was true, and there was no sign of falsehood.

Li Jing sighed lightly: “Governor Xie, stop kneeling, get up! I believe that the assassination has nothing to do with you. I have locked you for more than half a month to give everyone an explanation.”

Hearing the familiar warm words, Governor Xie was both moved and ashamed, burst into tears, he just knelt down and refused to stand up: “This minister is incompetent. This minister is arrogant as the Governor of Jiangnan, but he can’t really control Jiangnan. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was injured. , and now this group of murderers is coming to besiege the Governor’s Palace with open flames and arrows.”

“I have no face to see Your Highness!”

Li Jing said so many words one after another, his breathing was a little disordered, and he gestured to Fang Zizhan with his eyes.

Fang Zi Zhan calmed his mind, stretched out his hand to support Governor Xie, who was smug and shy: “The situation in Jiangnan is complicated, and the Governor has only been in office for more than a year. If you want to control Jiangnan, it is easier said than done. Your Highness is here to run a business, and Your Highness will do your best to assist His Highness. There is.”

“Your Highness is out of breath and should not be tired. Please come over, Governor Xie, because I am afraid that someone will accidentally hurt the Lord by ramming into the Governor’s Palace. Please sit down with peace of mind.”
