Chapter 960 Assassinated(1/2)

"Your Highness, there has been heavy rain ahead for days, and a section of the official road has been washed away, making it impossible for carriages to pass."

South of Luoshui, in the pattering rain, a Forbidden Army soldier ran towards the heavy rain and reported.

Inside the carriage.

After hearing this, Mu Yuan immediately opened the car curtain, looked at the scene in front of him, and said in a solemn voice, "How long will it take to repair it?"

"I'm afraid it will take more than two days!"

The Forbidden Army soldiers reported back, "It's still raining now, so it's very difficult to repair it."

Mu Yuan hesitated for a moment and then ordered, "Let everyone get off the bus, walk, and then transfer to the next station."

"yes!"

The officers and soldiers of the Forbidden Army accepted the order and immediately went to convey the order.

"The road is broken?"

On the carriage, when Li Ziye heard what was going on outside, his expression changed and he stepped down.

Oil-paper umbrellas were held up to block the heavy rain falling from the sky.

"A broken road is definitely a good sign!"

All around, the officials of Honglu Temple looked ahead and pointed, with anxious and uneasy expressions on their faces.

"Let's go!"

In front of the officials, Mu Yuan said something and continued walking towards them.

The officials of Honglu Temple looked at each other, then immediately looked away and followed one after another.

It rained heavily and the roads were muddy, making it difficult for carriages to move forward. The Imperial Army and officials moved forward in the rain, and their speed obviously slowed down a lot.

Not everyone is like the eldest prince. Li Ziye and others are well-educated. The officials of Honglu Temple are all civil servants. It can be said that they are powerless. They lost their carriage and walked on this muddy road at a very fast speed.

It's really not going anywhere fast.

"Ouch."

In a potholed area, several officials of Honglu Temple could not stand steadily and fell down one after another, looking extremely embarrassed.

"Go and help all the adults!"

Upon seeing this, Mu Yuan looked at the surrounding Imperial Guards and ordered.

"yes!"

Several Imperial Guardsmen took the order and quickly stepped forward to help several officials from Honglu Temple.

Behind him, Li Ziye was walking in the muddy water. At this moment, he did not use any cultivation skills. He was just like ordinary people, struggling to walk forward with one foot deep and one foot shallow.

"Professor Li, don't you have some cultivation skills?"

When an old minister of Honglu Temple turned around, he saw that the boy from the Li family behind him was just like them, half covered in mud and in a miserable state. He couldn't help but asked with some doubts.

Looking at His Highness, the Buyi Hou, and several Forbidden Army masters in front of them, they walked on this muddy road as if they were walking on flat ground. Unlike them, every step was so strenuous.

"Yes, there is."

In the heavy rain, Li Ziye responded with a smile, "However, this is not an enemy. What kind of cultivation is it? Mr. Yan, you are old, so you have to slow down."

"Haha, it's okay. My body is still strong and I can bear it."

Yan Danqing responded with a smile, said nothing more, and immediately continued to move forward with the help of the Forbidden Army.

"God is not kind to me, I hope nothing will go wrong."

Li Ziye looked at the heavy rain in the sky, murmured softly, quickly looked away, and prepared to continue on his way.

Sudden.

Li Ziye's eyes narrowed, he stepped forward, jumped up, and rushed forward.

Mud water splashed for several feet.

In everyone's confused and shocked eyes.

At the end of the rain curtain, a sharp arrow shot through the air, and its target was Yan Danqing, the most respected veteran in Honglu Temple.

There was no sign of the fatal arrow. When everyone came to their senses, the sharp arrow had already arrived in front of the old man.

"Master Yan, be careful!"

Ahead, Mu Yuan looked shocked and shouted.

The sharp arrow came close, Yan Danqing's old eyes shrank, and he wanted to avoid it, but his body refused to obey.

Not to mention the old man, even the masters of the Forbidden Army beside the old man were unable to react. In this heavy rain, the warrior's senses will be affected, and the sharp arrows are hidden and difficult to guard against.

but.

There is one exception.

That is Li Ziye, who has always been on the edge of danger.

With everyone watching, just as the sharp arrow was about to penetrate Yan Danqing's chest, a long sword still in its sheath shot through the air and blocked the life-threatening arrow.

"Be careful, there are masters in the dark!"

Li Ziye's figure swept over, stood in front of Yan Danqing, and shouted loudly.

The surrounding imperial troops also came to their senses at this moment and quickly formed formations to take precautions.

Several masters in the army rushed into the rain to find the man who fired the arrow.

However, as time passed by, there was silence all around the official road, except for the sound of rain falling, there was no other sound.

Not long after, several masters of the Forbidden Army rushed back one after another. They shook their heads and reported, "Your Highness, no suspicious person was found."

Mu Yuan's expression darkened when he saw several people returning without success. This peace talk was an opportunity for him to atone for his sins, and he would never allow anyone to destroy it.

"The person must have left."

In the middle of the official road, Li Ziye turned around, looked at the old man behind him, and asked with concern, "Master Yan, are you okay?"

"It's okay. Thank you Professor Li for saving my life."

Yan Danqing looked grateful and bowed his hands in thanks.

"Your Excellency, you are too polite, as you should be."

Li Ziye avoided it a little and did not accept the old man's courtesy.

He is young and cannot bear it.

It will shorten your life.

Li Ziye sometimes has his own little superstitions.

For example, I cannot stand the worship of my elders.

Even if you accidentally received it, you should return it immediately.

After a brief interlude, the peace talks team continued to move forward, but this time, everyone began to be a little wary.

Obviously, someone wants to sabotage the peace talks between Dashang and the Eight Tribes of Mobei.

"Brother, do you know who did it?"

In front of the ministers, Huanzhu opened his mouth and transmitted the message.

"I can't guess yet."

Li Ziye responded through a message, "There are too many people who want to sabotage the peace talks. It doesn't matter who can do it. The key is the result of this trip. You don't have to worry about this matter. If anything happens, don't take action."

"yes."

Huanzhu nodded and responded obediently.

at the same time.

When the team of the eight tribes in Mobei passed through a rugged mountain road, a sword pierced the air, and their target was the emperor who advocated peace talks.

"careful!"

Lord Helan, who was closest to Lord Chili, came to his senses and threw the Changge in the hands of the soldiers behind him directly.

"Keng!"

In the air, swords and guns collided, and sparks flew out. The assassin who made a sneak attack missed a hit, and immediately took advantage of the situation and jumped away. The speed was shocking.

Lord Chili recovered from the shock and looked at Lord Helan aside, with a grateful expression on his face, cupping his fists and saying, "Thank you!"

"You're welcome.

Lord Helan responded, looking at the direction in which the assassin was going, and said in a deep voice, "He is a master at the top of the Four Realms. Everyone, be careful. Some people want to sabotage this peace negotiation."

"Maybe Dashang doesn't want peace talks at all."

Ahead, Tantai Jingyue turned around and said calmly, "Their goal is just to use the excuse of peace talks to catch us all."

Upon hearing this, the Emperor Chili's expression changed slightly.
