Chapter 583 Looking for the Peacock in the Sky(1/2)
"Catch the assassin!"
"Something happened to Mr. Ji Dan!"
"Someone come quickly!"
Late at night, there was a little more noise in a corner of the Shang Palace. Groups of soldiers holding torches rushed into the vicinity of the prince's bedroom.
Prince Zishou, who had gone to bed early, ran here wearing his underwear.
Donghuang Taiyi is the reincarnation of a remnant soul. The original remnant soul is already very weak and needs to be nurtured for a long time before he can reincarnate smoothly. He has no immortal consciousness at the moment, but his six senses are different from ordinary people, his ears and eyes are sharp, and he has a weak spiritual consciousness.
Therefore, as soon as Donghuang Tai heard that Ji Dan had been assassinated, he could not use his spiritual consciousness to detect the specific situation, so he rushed here in a hurry.
At this moment, Donghuang Taiyi didn’t think too much about his ‘father’s mission’;
Ji Dan just arrived today and just stayed next to the palace where he lived. This was still in the heavily guarded Shang Palace. To assassinate him like this, he simply didn't take him seriously as a prince!
Someone from the palace came running to greet you: "Your Highness!"
"What's wrong?"
"Master Ji Dan was seriously injured, but his life is not in danger for the time being. A dagger pierced his chest, and the dagger missed the vital point by just a hair!"
"Who did it!"
Donghuang Taiyi scolded: "You actually attack a five-year-old child, and you are so shameless!"
The palace man hurriedly said: "The assassin was a dead man. When we caught him, he had already cut his throat and committed suicide! He is a palace man outside the palace and has been in the palace for three years."
Dong Huangtai paused and frowned: "You mean, if this dead man assassinated me tonight instead of Xiao Ji Dan, I would be the one who lost his life by just a hair's breadth?"
The palace man quickly knelt down and said, "I know you are guilty!"
Donghuang Taiyi flicked his sleeves and passed by the palace people, and quickly entered the attic. He saw little Ji Dan lying on the bed, and the witch doctor who was busy beside him.
Thanks to the fact that businessmen like to expand their territory and fight in the east and west, the witch doctors are also very good at treating such injuries.
They may not be able to solve a pandemic;
But they are very good at stopping bleeding and recovering from injuries.
Xiao Ji Dan is naturally in a coma now, and Li Ping'an's mind has returned to his original body, watching this place with a sky survey mirror, and will wake up when he needs to.
Since he acquired the Phoenix Clan's battle body, he has rarely felt such pain.
Although Li Ping'an was often beaten when he was practicing with the transcendent, the pain of the Tao body collapsing was different from the pain of a sharp blade piercing the mortal body. Moreover, every time the Tao body collapsed, the soul fainted first, but this time
Li Ping'an clearly felt the sting.
The other party really wants to kill him.
Li Ping'an used his immortal knowledge to slightly interfere with the other party's judgment, then quietly moved his body, and finally achieved the current 'slight difference'.
Who wants to kill him?
There was no evidence of the dead man's death, but Emperor Li Tiandi found the real culprit with just a little investigation using a sky survey mirror.
No matter what, if someone else has done it to him, should he still lie down and wait for the other person to kill him a second time?
Even if there is no way to operate it in the ordinary world, he can still give the opponent some sudden illness and death.
Li Ping'an flicked his sword finger and drew a spell. He was about to find out who was behind the real murder, but was stopped by Donghuang Taiyi's voice coming from the survey mirror.
There is no rush for this moment.
I heard that Donghuang Taiyi was furious there, but the young man already had a majesty that made the palace guards fearful.
"Are all the guards guarding this place asleep? Capture all the servants and maids sent by Xibohou Mansion! All the guards on duty tonight are tied up and kneeling outside!"
There was chaos inside and outside the attic.
Soon there were cries, and Xiao Jidan's servants and more than 20 guards were tied up and knelt in front of the attic.
Dong Huangtai waved his hand, and the group of people began to be tortured.
Li Ping'an thought these guys would just lose their heads.
After the witch doctor had treated little Ji Dan's wound, Donghuang Taiyi asked: "How is the injury of the fourth son of Xibohou?"
"There is no fear of life, but the internal organs are injured."
The witch doctor said seriously:
"Now I just stopped the bleeding. I will give him some herbs to swallow later. When I go back, I will also pray to God for him and ask God not to take him away.
"Your Highness, please rest assured."
"Can't you die?"
Donghuang Taiyi breathed a sigh of relief, then crossed his arms and stood by the bed, frowning and thinking.
He murmured: "Who is behind this, why would they attack a five-year-old child? He just came to Chaoge City, so he must have no enemies. The reason behind this should be to stir up Xibohou's hatred for Chaoge City.
"
The witch doctor did not dare to speak and whispered: "Your Majesty, if there is nothing wrong with you, I will go back to pray."
"Well, thank you for your hard work."
Donghuang Taiyi smiled and said: "Give me greetings to God when I pray."
The witch doctor's expression changed drastically. He glanced around subconsciously and said hurriedly: "Your Highness! Be careful! You can't play with God!"
Donghuang Taiyi curled his lips in disapproval.
Would he tell these guys that he had been the Emperor of Heaven before, and that the current Emperors of Heaven could only be regarded as his juniors?
"I know, let's go down."
"yes."
The old witch doctor wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, lowered his head and left quickly, fearing that God would punish him if he walked too slowly, and that he would be implicated by the prince.
Screams came one after another outside the door.
Many areas in the palace were lit with lights, and a large number of soldiers ran back and forth, searching for assassins everywhere.
Donghuang Taiyi stood aside and frowned for a while and analyzed. Two guards wearing purple armor rushed towards the place and knelt on one knee behind Donghuang Taiyi.
"Your Highness! Your Majesty inquires about Ji Dan's injury!"
"Your Highness, my subordinates have investigated this matter clearly. The dead man seems to be related to Marquis Xi Lin."
Emperor Taiyi of the East raised his eyebrows slightly: "Oh? Marquis Xilin? Is that the Marquis Xilin who used to have a fiefdom in the west, but was defeated by the Zhou Kingdom and fled to the palace with his family?"
"yes!"
"If you don't use your brain, replace it with a dog."
The corners of Donghuang Taiyi's mouth twitched slightly:
"Marquis Xilin is so poor, how can he afford to support dead soldiers?
"What did he want to do by arranging the dead men to lurk in the palace for three years? Did he already know that Ji Dan would be sent here and stationed outside the palace?"
Donghuang Taiyi snorted:
"The protons of various countries have special residences. If he wants to assassinate the protons sent by Xibo, wouldn't it be easier to directly arrange for people to enter those residences?"
The two purple-armored guards quickly lowered their heads, not daring to breathe.
Donghuang Taiyi glanced at Ji Dan for a few times, then raised his eyebrows slightly, already having an idea.
"This matter will be reported to Your Majesty by the envoy of Marquis Xilin. Marquis Xilin will take him into custody first and give him some punishment in the dungeon. Let him deal with it on his own if he cannot bear the punishment.
"In addition, I sent someone to ride a shuttle horse and rushed to Xiqi. I told him that Ji Dan was attacked and was treated by the best doctor in the palace. It was just a skin injury and nothing serious."
The guard breathed a sigh of relief and took the order and left.
"These guys are so low-level in lying."
Donghuang Taiyiqiao glanced at Ji Dan, then shook his head and sighed: "Only five years old."
Then he left with his hands behind his hands, leaving more than a hundred guards to guard the place closely.
In heaven.
Li Ping'an was lying in the mist-filled Huachi, watching the scene with a sky survey mirror and shaking his head with a smile.
Donghuang Taiyi should have guessed who took action.
Li Ping'an pointed his sword at the sky surveying mirror, and the light and shadow on it changed. The screen just moved a small frame to the side and locked on the mastermind of today's assassination.
The old man lying softly, enjoying the service of several enchanting women...
Who is he if he is not a contemporary Shang King?
It's a bit messy, let's sort it out.
According to the law of heaven, the assassins sent to kill Xiao Ji Dan tonight are the contemporary kings of Shang, Emperor Yi and Zixian.
What kind of trick is this old man playing?
A test of loyalty to Xibohou?
To be continued...
