140 Great Liao Mission Assassination Attacks(1/2)
Ming Jixue went to the appointment alone, and Bai Xin was a little worried after all. After she left, she followed her quietly.
She entered Changchun Pavilion and soon after, she walked out alone, with a relaxed face.
It seemed like some burden was removed all of a sudden.
Later, Bai Xin asked her and found out that the Fengyun Escort Agency did not ask her to meet her this time, but clarified the misunderstanding, turned war with her into jade and reconciled.
The person who specially asked her to meet this time was the big shot of Fengyun Escort Agency, Zhou Baiyu, the city lord of Wuyang City in "North City", and his wife "Fairy Hero" Bai Xinru.
Zhou Baiyu's "Lightning Sword Technique" is famous in the world. He is handsome and is the lord of a city. He is a famous young hero in the world. His wife, "Fairy Heroes", Bai Xinru, is young and beautiful and has good martial arts skills. In the eyes of the people in the world, these two are actually a pair of golden boys and jade girls.
What is even more commendable is that this couple is not a person who is stubborn, stubborn and unreasonable.
This time they had received a "chasing order" and came to the capital to deal with Ming Jixue. Because they had a good relationship with Zhuge Shenhou of the Six Gate and the Four Famous Captains, they went to visit him before they started. They revealed the matter during a chat. After Wuqing learned about it, he hurriedly received the case and told them about the misunderstanding.
The evidence Wuqing presented was detailed and reliable, and his character has always been trusted and respected by the senior executives of Fengyu Escort Agency. Zhou Baiyu and Bai Xinru were no exception. They were finally convinced and decided to cancel the action.
Therefore, under ruthless persuasion, Zhou Baiyu and his wife invited Ming Jixue to a banquet and resolve the misunderstanding. From then on, the hatred and grudges between the two sides were settled. As for the "chasing order" issued by the Fengyun Escort Agency, Zhou Baiyu and his wife would immediately contact the big leader and cancel it.
After this incident, Ming Jixue no longer has to worry about being entangled by the masters of Fengyun Escort Agency. Of course, she is careless.
Bai Xin was also happy for her.
A few days passed by, and it was soon October 25th.
Before this, Li Dao's new position had been confirmed, and he had met the emperor and received a seal of official position.
——The Privy Council envoy, in charge of the Hexi House.
The Privy Council is known as the "Two Prefectures" together with the Secretary of the Central Committee. The Privy Council is the Government and the Privy Council is the Privy Council. It is an important authority responsible for the country's military confidential affairs, border defense, promotion and demotion of military generals, logistics supply, miscellaneous matters, and other affairs.
The institution has twelve bedrooms: the north house, the Hexi house, the branch house, the Beijing house, the school reading house, the Guangxi house, the military registration house, the militia house, the official house, the miscellaneous house, the horse house, and the minor official house.
Among them, the Hexi Fang's responsibilities are to take charge of Shaanxi Road, Lin, Fu, Feng, Lan, Shi, Xizhou, Baode military officials, western border defense, foreign officials, and national trust affairs.
The highest commander of the Privy Council is the Privy Council, followed by the Privy Council envoy, and all deputy positions are military generals. However, the basic national policy of the State of Great Zhao is to "control the military with literature". Therefore, in terms of power, the Privy Council envoy is the second only to the Privy Council envoy.
In other words, Li Dao, who served as Privy Councilor and in charge of the Hexifang, was like Bai Xin's deputy minister of the Ministry of National Defense and commander-in-chief of the Western Theater Command, who was a real official of the court.
The twenty-fiveth day was the first day Li Daoxin took office.
Before the morning sun rose, Li Dao's mansion was already busy, boiling water and cooking, preparing carriages and horses. It took nearly an hour of busy work before the preparations were ready.
When Li Dao walked out of the mansion, the chariots and horses that symbolized his status as a senior official in the court were ready. The cold storm blew the flags on the back. The followers stood silently on both sides, and the sound of collision of armor and weapons was heard by chance.
At this time, the fish belly just appeared in the east.
Looking around, the whole street was cold and bleak, and the empty light gray sky was exuding a unique beauty of tranquility.
Li Dao thanked everyone and sat in the sedan chair. Yang Bangyi and Zhe Keji took the elite soldiers sent by the Yang family and the Zhong family, and the guards sent by the Zhe family to protect Zhe Keji and the masters of the Li family. These people protected the three layers of the sedan chair inside and three layers of the outside, and even the ones who supported the support were theirs.
With Yang Bangyi's order, a team of more than 30 people rose up and began to move forward slowly.
When Bai Xin and Monk Yuan Kong saw the team set off, they also turned over and rode a tall and strong horse, holding a long sword or Buddhist bead in one hand, holding a rein in the other, pressing behind the team, and walking slowly.
At the same time, they were alert and kept an eye on the movements around the team at any time.
This time, the guards who were separated to protect Li Dao's safety were all wearing close-fitting leather armor and complete weapons.
They are all veterans of war, and everyone is an elite who survived various battles on the cruel battlefield. After cruel training, their martial arts may not be very good, but their fighting skills are definitely top-notch.
Moreover, they have all passed by death once or several times, and are extremely sensitive to crisis and death. Many people are proficient in reconnaissance and it is very difficult to attack them without being discovered by them.
Yang Bangyi asked Zhe Keji to walk in front of the formation, and he and the masters of the Li family protected Li Dao's left and right sides.
His spirits were very tense.
Yang's family has a lot of knowledge. He has been with the army since he was a child and has also learned it. He has seen soldiers in the army escort food and grass, and learned from it. He is also very skillful in protecting his uncle Li Dao.
He thought very clearly that today is the day when my uncle's new official takes office. If he is assassinated or killed, he will immediately shock the good officials in the world. The killer monk's reputation is even better. Even if it is okay, the prestige of my uncle, the new official, will be greatly reduced. He cannot suppress the people in the Privy Council, fulfilling the wishes of some people.
Therefore, assassin with normal brains will never miss this opportunity today.
After realizing that there might be a tough battle to fight today, he could also propose to mobilize most of the elite guards in the mansion, inform the Six Gates to protect them along the way, use substitutes and other strategies, but they were all rejected by Li Dao for various reasons.
In desperation, he had to make the worst plan.
He arranged the elite veterans in key positions in all directions, which looked not very neat, but in fact it was a simple variant of the Yang family's military formation. He and the masters of the Li family were in charge of the central army. In this way, no matter which angle the enemy attacked, he could react immediately and command the veterans to unite to fight the enemy.
But if the enemy's strength is beyond imagination...
Thinking of this, he turned his head and secretly glanced at Bai Xin and Yuankong on the horse's back, and then looked away again.
He didn't know how strong these two people were, but based on his cousin Zhe Keji's performance when he fought with Monk Yuankong, as well as the rumors about Bai Xin's big and small, he concluded that the strength of the two people was extraordinary, and that even if he was probably not an opponent, he was not an opponent.
But he was a young man from a general, with a noble background and a weak skill. He was arrogant and believed that even if his strength was not as strong as them, he could obviously do better in protecting the characters' work.
So although he never showed the repulsion and discomfort of the two monks Yuankong, he was also extremely cold and he never took the initiative to negotiate with them when arranging all personnel arrangements.
Of course, Bai Xin and Monk Yuan Kong noticed this, but they didn't care.
They are here to deal with the killer monks. As for specific guards, they are really inferior to those of Yang Bangyi and other generals. After all, they have specialized in their skills.
Moreover, after all, they are not the same as Yang Bangyi and others. They will not have much interaction in the future, and there is no need to be vain and imprisoned.
As the team moved forward, the sun rose and the sky was bright. The breakfast shops on the street were officially opened for business. Furious food fragrance wafted over, and more and more people walked out on both sides of the road.
The streets gradually became noisy.
People in the capital have long been used to seeing the honor guard teams where high officials go to and from get off work, so no one cared about this team when they saw it. They just looked at it casually and went to their own way.
After almost half an hour of walking in the team, the government affairs district was already not far ahead. When I turned another street, I completely passed through the commercial area and residential area. Then I walked along the street for a while and I could reach the yamen of the Privy Council.
As the way, the team did not encounter any abnormal situation. Even Bai Xin, who had a keen mental perception, only felt that there were a few malicious eyes secretly looking at the team, but there were not one with murderous intent or malicious intentions.
Yang Bangyi is already wondering whether the killer will take action when they arrive at the yamen!
This is very likely.
When people are about to complete something, they are often the most careless. Veterans will be nervous and exhausted all the way, and when they arrive at the yamen, they will relax and slack. This is a good opportunity for killers to attack.
Just as he couldn't help but make a sound to adjust the formation of the team, a shout suddenly came from somewhere on the street ahead.
"There are people from Liao in front!"
"What? The Liao people are fighting!!!"
"No, no, no, it's a group of envoys from the Liao people!"
"Go and have a look."
Amid the shouts, a large number of people rushed towards the streets, almost completely blocking the road ahead of the team.
The Liao people's mission?
Hearing the shouts, the people on the team were surprised. How could the Liao people send a delegation to come here at this time?
Could it be that they are here to find fault again?
Is it going to fight against the Liao Kingdom again?!!
Thinking of this, the people in the team became turbulent and unconsciously followed the crowd forward, looking at the crowd on tiptoe.
Bai Xin and Monk Yuankong looked at each other, slowly drove the horses to follow, looking far away from a high place.
I saw crowds of people on the street, crowded with crowds of people, which made the streets till the waters were blocked, but there was no one in the central street, leaving a spacious road.
At this moment, a sudden commotion in the crowd.
A large convoy slowly came from a distance.
The carriages in this convoy are extremely luxurious. Each carriage is made of extremely high specifications, the wood used is extremely expensive, and every part is made by a craftsman. Even the horses pulling the cart are rare in the Great Zhao State. They are all snow-white and flawless white horses!
The convoy was surrounded by Liao warriors riding horses to guard them.
These Liao guards rode high-headed horses, wore iron armor, scimitars hanging around their waists, and long boots. They were dressed neatly and neatly. Coupled with their unique hair, they further showed the roughness and toughness of the grassland herders.
In front of the convoy, officials from the Great Zhao State led the way and slowly moved forward under the watch of passers-by.
At this moment—
Bai Xin felt sensitively that many passers-by around him looked at him with bad intentions and murderous eyes. While everyone else was staring at the Liao people's convoy, the eyes were particularly prominent, making it difficult for him not to notice.
However, in order to avoid making moves that stimulate them to act in advance, Bai Xin did not search for the masters of these eyes, but instead gave a look invisible Monk Chao Yuankong.
Monk Yuankong understood and was careful.
On the other side, Yang Bangyi looked around vigilantly, and her eyes swept through the crowd next to the team from time to time, trying to find out the killer who might be hiding inside.
This is much better than Zhe Keji who follows the crowd to watch the fun.
"Kill all the Liao dogs! Avenge the victims!"
Suddenly a loud shout came out.
As the words came out, more than twenty people suddenly emerged from the roofs on both sides of the street. They all pulled the bows and arrows in their hands and shot at the Liao people on the street below.
"Someone attacks, be careful!"
The Liao guards found that the sneak attack was very timely and responded almost at the same time.
They skillfully pulled out their long swords and cut down the bows and arrows shot from the air. Some people, relying on their companions' cover, pulled out arrows from the horses, bent their bows and took them back, and fought back.
Compared with the assassin's archery technique, the Liao guards' archery technique is more than a little more powerful, and they are almost certain to hit the arrows. In just a few blinks, they shot the archers on the roof to death one by one.
