On Chang'an Avenue, Da Tieniu looked at Luo Zhang and then at Cheng Chumo with a confused expression. He still seemed a little unbelievable. The reversal was really too big and he couldn't turn the corner.
"Don't look, this is indeed Mr. Luo Zhangluo." Cheng Chumo patted Da Tieniu on the shoulder, then walked to Luo Zhang and looked up and down. Seeing that Luo Zhang did not have any damage, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Lord Luo, what kind of trouble are you making?"
"Even with what you saw, I didn't expect someone to actually assassinate me. It's a blessing in misfortune, but my bodyguard died a bit miserably!" As he spoke, a hint of coldness flashed in Luo Zhang's eyes. The assassins who came to his house last time to assassinate were sent by Chang Sun Chong and Dou Huai'an. After all, he was in the secret room down there at that time, and it was these two people who had the hatred value in his mind. This time, this person assassinated Chang Sun Chong and Dou Huai'an again. It is absolutely inseparable.
Hearing Luo Zhang admitted his suspicion, Cheng Chumo breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time his face changed again and said: "Oh no, the news of your death has been sent to the palace, and we only received orders from His Majesty." The city is under martial law and searches have begun, this..."
Luo Zhang understood what Cheng Chumo said as soon as he said it. I'm afraid the palace was already in chaos at this moment.
Luo Zhang could imagine how angry Li Shimin would be because of his death. He was shouldering the important task of finding the elixir of life, building sea ships, and expedition to the northern Turks to make artificial igloos.
Luo Zhang didn't expect that he had become so important. Without him, many things would be difficult to do. He felt a little complacent, but now was not the time to be complacent.
"Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you report it to His Majesty? Why don't you stay here and brag to me? Are you afraid that His Majesty will find out and blame you?" Luo Zhang said angrily to Cheng Chumo.
"Yes, yes, I want to report it quickly. I won't tell you anymore." Cheng Chumo hurriedly mounted his horse and galloped away again.
"What the hell is Yu Wenxin doing? Why didn't he tell his subordinates the news that Lao Li was still alive? He made such a big joke and even spread it to the palace. If His Majesty knew, he would have suffered a lot!" Cheng Chumoluo looked at him walking away. Zhang murmured to himself.
In fact, Luo Zhang mistakenly blamed Yu Wenxin. In order to chase the murderer, he had no time to explain. What's more, when he saw Luo Zhang, he didn't know that news of Luo Zhang's death would come out. This mistake caused There was a misunderstanding, and the guard who reported the news was not from his city guard department. How could he have known that something like this would happen.
Cheng Chumo left, leaving Da Tieniu sitting there. He had mistakenly thought Luo Zhang was a thief and almost had Luo Zhang arrested. Now he felt a little embarrassed facing Luo Zhang and didn't know what to do. If Luo Zhang is blamed and says a few words to their boss, will he still have a good life?
"Um, Mr. Luo, this...this is your belt!" Da Tieniu stuttered.
Luo Zhang glanced at the strong Tieniu and felt a little funny in his heart. He did not embarrass the big Tieniu. He took the waistband and hung it on his waist. He said to the big Tieniu: "Okay, you have nothing to do here. , just go ahead and do what you have to do, I won’t tell Yu Wenxin about you, so don’t worry!”
After hearing Luo Zhang's words, Da Tieniu was overjoyed. Isn't that what he was worried about? Now that Luo Zhang gave him reassurance, he no longer worried. After thanking Luo Zhang profusely, he took the people with him. Go and do what he has to do.
With Da Tieniu gone, Luo Zhang and Wu Shaobin were left here again.
"We'd better go first. Someone will clean up here later. I'm afraid His Majesty will be anxious now in the palace, so it's better to go see His Majesty first! Lest he be angry with us." He said to Wu Shaobin, Luo Zhang also found his royally given horse, got on it, and ran towards the imperial city with Wu Shaobin.
In the palace, Li Shimin was calm now, not as angry as before. The reason for this was naturally due to Cheng Chumo's report that Luo Zhang was not dead.
After repeated questioning, he learned that the person wearing Luo Zhang's wedding robe was not him. It was Luo Zhang who changed his clothes for safety reasons after seeing the fire. Who knew he was actually being assassinated? , just like this, Luo Zhang escaped the disaster.
But not many people knew about this. This also caused the reporting guards to come to the imperial city to report the news because they thought Luo Zhang was dead, which made Li Shimin Long Yan furious.
But now it's fine, all the misunderstandings have been resolved. Luo Zhang is not dead, so he is naturally relieved. As long as he is not dead, everything else is just a cloud. Of course, the murderer must be traced, and he actually dares to assassinate his daughter on the day he marries his daughter. His son-in-law, this is a slap in the face. If he doesn't investigate, wouldn't it make people think that he is an easy-to-talk emperor?
At this time, Eunuch Huang walked in from outside the door and reported: "Your Majesty, Luo Zhang is here!"
Hearing Luo Zhang's arrival, Li Shimin straightened up, waved his hand and said, "Let him come in quickly!"
Eunuch Huang smiled slightly and hurriedly retreated. He was relieved that Luo Zhang was not dead. After all, he had a very good impression of Luo Zhang, and he had watched Princess Gaoyang grow up. Naturally, he hoped that Princess Gaoyang would If his life can be harmonious and beautiful, he naturally doesn't want anything unexpected to happen to Luo Zhang.
And His Majesty will not be angry anymore, this is the best.
After a while, Luo Zhang followed Eunuch Huang into the imperial study.
"Your Majesty, Luo Zhang is here. It is my fault to frighten Your Majesty!" Luo Zhang recognized his mistake as soon as he came in. This made Li Shimin, who wanted to reprimand Luo Zhang, swallow his words again.
He glanced at Luo Zhang in annoyance and said, "You're a smart kid, and you actually came up with a trick. I'm afraid that the person who assassinated you would be so angry that he would vomit blood if he knew that he was not killing you!"
Listening to Li Shimin's teasing, Luo Zhang knew that he had admitted that he was right when he admitted his mistake, and His Majesty did not blame him.
"Your Majesty, isn't this just in case? I didn't expect anyone to really want to assassinate me. Maybe His Majesty is blessing me and turning danger into good luck!" Luo Zhang said flatteringly.
"Okay, don't be poor. Since it's okay, the wedding will still go on as usual, but your outfit..." Li Shimin nodded and said that Luo Zhang's bodyguards were a little annoyed.
Wearing guard clothes to marry a princess is probably the first time in the Tang Dynasty.
In Ziyang Palace, Gao Yang has never had such a high and low mood in one day. After hearing the news that Luo Zhang was assassinated, she cried until she fainted. Now that she got the news that Luo Zhang was fine and alive, she cried again. That's what Daxi and Dabei said. If Luo Zhang were here at this time, he was afraid that Gao Yang would jump into Luo Zhang's arms and beat him to death.
If you don't bring something so scary, it will scare people to death.
Just as Luo Zhang was going to the palace, Dou Huaian was walking around the room with a pale face. It was not because he wanted to do this, but because he was frightened by a piece of news.
That was when Luo Zhang was assassinated on Chang'an Avenue, and the person who assassinated him was the killer he had bribed before, the boss of the Qilian Three Heroes, Wang Hu!
Originally, he thought that Wang Hu would take the money and leave, saying that he would continue to seek revenge from Luo Zhang. In his opinion, it was just a matter of words. What kind of friendship and revenge could a group of bad friends have? How could it be possible to take revenge for those people.
But I didn't expect that this guy really wanted to avenge those men, and he assassinated Luo Zhang openly and openly on Chang'an Avenue with a siege crossbow on the day of his wedding. Is this guy crazy?
Luo Zhang's wedding is to marry a princess. If you dare to assassinate her, wouldn't that offend His Majesty?
Do you still dare to use a siege crossbow? That is a forbidden item, whoever uses it will die!
Each of these is a capital crime. The key is that this person has been hired by him before. Currently, there are a group of people in the Secret Service. These people are not that big. They know him at all, but the leader Wang Hu knows him. According to inquiries The news showed that this man was not dead, but was injured and was being treated. If he was exposed, wouldn't he be dead? This was why he was so anxious.
No, as soon as he got the news, he sent someone to ask Changsun Chong. After all, the two of them did this together. Since something happened, he couldn't be worried alone. He had to find someone to discuss how to solve it. This thing.
Compared to Dou Huaian, Changsun Chong was even more miserable. He had just entered the official position and had a bright future. But now that this happened, he panicked. Instead of going to Dou Huaian, he went to his father, Changsun Wu. Don't worry, after all, only his father can help him with this matter.
