Jiang Donglin led a team to pursue him, but failed to catch up.
This shows that this person has extraordinary skills.
"You didn't even catch up with His Royal Highness?" Di Yunhao was shocked.
Jiang Donglin nodded helplessly.
Di Yunhao's skills are similar to Jiang Donglin's.
If the Turkic dynasty sends assassins again.
Then even if Jiang Qiulu didn't feel murderous, he might be frightened to death.
What's more, the Turkic dynasty may also send more powerful assassins.
At this time, a royal guard walked in.
"Your Majesty, my lord, the commander."
"The boys discovered this object during the hunt."
As he spoke, he took out an envelope and handed it over.
Di Yunhao took it and opened the envelope.
The next moment, Di Yunhao's eyes widened instantly.
"What did you write?"
Di Yunhao handed the letter to Jiang Qiulu.
On the letter paper, there are only three sentences:
King Jiang left the capital and the palace was empty, so he acted quickly.
There are only these twelve words on the entire letter paper, without a name.
Based on these clues, Jiang Qiulu could roughly guess the whole thing.
First, someone in the court released news, informing King Jiang that he had left the capital.
Immediately afterwards, the Turkic Dynasty sent experts to assassinate Jiang Qiulu.
Unexpectedly, Jiang Donglin stayed with Jiang Qiulu and did not return to the northern front line together.
In other words, if Jiang Donglin hadn't appeared in time.
I am afraid that I will be assassinated by an assassin.
Thinking of this, Jiang Qiulu was frightened for a while.
"Your Majesty, starting from today, I plan to stay in Taiji Hall."
"We will protect His Majesty with His Royal Highness," Di Yunhao said.
Jiang Qiulu shook his head.
"That's not the case."
"The assassin failed in his assassination and will probably not appear again for some time."
"Commander Di, release the news to the outside world."
"Just say that I was seriously injured by the assassin and I don't know whether I will live or die."
"Zhenfu Si and Ouchi guards are working hard to pursue clues about the assassin."
"Tell General Di that the entire city of Kyoto is under martial law and the city guards are always on alert."
Jiang Qiulu issued these instructions, and everyone knew the purpose of doing so.
Just to bring out the mastermind behind the scenes.
"No!" Di Yunhao agreed immediately.
"My beloved concubine, please don't come to Tai Chi Hall for the time being." Jiang Qiulu said to Concubine De beside him.
"His Majesty……"
Concubine De's eyes were red, expressing that she wanted to stay with her here.
"My beloved, be obedient."
"Now that assassins have entered the palace, it can no longer be the same as before."
"We have to find the person behind this."
Jiang Qiulu knew after what he learned from the last night banquet.
Just catching people is not enough.
Last time, it was King Yong who bribed the personal bodyguard of the Minister of Rites and killed Wu Xiu in public.
Then he committed suicide, and the clue was completely disconnected.
In order to prevent similar things from happening, Jiang Qiulu chose to investigate secretly.
After thoroughly investigating the matter, arrest the person.
By then, he will have all the information, and he will not be afraid of being silenced again.
Sleepless night.
On the morning of the next day, Jiang Qiulu did not appear.
"My lords, Your Majesty is feeling unwell, so today's morning court meeting has been cancelled."
"My lords, please help yourself."
Li Mingzhi stood in front of the palace and said to the civil and military officials below.
There was a lot of discussion in the court.
Thinking back to the assassins who entered the palace last night, the ministers had a kind of thinking inertia.
The assassin entered the palace and His Majesty felt unwell.
That meant that Jiang Qiulu had been injured by the assassin and was unable to come to the morning court.
Li Mingzhi coughed twice, and the hall suddenly became quiet.
"This matter must not be spread outside the palace."
"Those who disobey orders will be killed!"
The last words shocked all the ministers.
"Eunuch Li, how is your Majesty doing now?"
"Can I go to Taiji Hall to visit?" a minister asked.
"Do your own thing."
"Over there at Taiji Hall, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the imperial physician are there."
"Don't let any other people come near you."
After saying that, Li Mingzhi left the Jinluan Palace.
When King Yong heard the news, he was dubious.
From the very beginning to now, King Yong has been wondering whether something went too smoothly.
Seeing all the ministers walking out of the Jinluan Palace, King Yong followed him.
"Your Majesty, is what Eunuch Li said true?"
Behind King Yong, Prime Minister Guo Xiaosen followed up and asked.
"I don't know, I need to find out." King Yong said.
"My lord, assassins entered the palace last night."
"The entire Tai Chi Palace and even the city of Kyoto are under martial law."
"Who else can get close to Tai Chi Hall?" Guo Xiaosen asked.
"I said so." King Yong smiled slightly, which confused Guo Xiaosen.
Yaohua Palace.
Concubine Rong has received news from King Yong, asking her to go to Tai Chi Hall.
See if Jiang Qiulu is really injured.
There is no problem in visiting as a concubine.
So Concubine Rong took action immediately and went to Tai Chi Hall with her personal maid Xiaorou.
Along the way, Concubine Rong discovered.
Suddenly there were many more royal guards in the palace.
Even Qianhu from the Zhenfu Division had appeared and led the team in person.
Concubine Rong couldn't help but become suspicious.
"Is His Majesty really injured? He actually caused such a big fight." Xiaorou said quietly to Concubine Rong.
Concubine Rong shook her head slightly, indicating that she didn't know.
"Whether you are injured or not, you will know after seeing it."
Continuing to move towards the Tai Chi Hall, the defenses near the Tai Chi Hall are even tighter.
When the master and servant arrived at the Taiji Hall, they found that there were soldiers from the Jingxi Camp guarding the place.
There was even a hundred-strong Jinyiwei team standing in front of the Tai Chi Hall.
Concubine Rong was also a little frightened by this kind of battle.
Taking a deep breath, Concubine Rong slowly walked towards the gate of Tai Chi Hall.
"Liang Yuanhe, a thousand households in Fusi, Beizhen, see Concubine Rong!"
A guard dressed as an official appeared in front of Concubine Rong and blocked Concubine Rong's way.
"I want to meet His Majesty!" Concubine Rong said calmly.
"Concubine Rong, please forgive me. Your Majesty is feeling unwell and it is inconvenient to see people."
"Please come back." Liang Yuanhe bowed to Concubine Rong and said respectfully.
"Master Qianhu's control is too lenient."
"My husband is injured, and he doesn't even have the right to visit?" Concubine Rong's voice rose a lot, attracting the attention of the people around her.
"Your Majesty, Commander Di personally gave the order."
"No idlers are allowed to enter the Tai Chi Hall."
"Your Majesty, please don't make it difficult for me to get caught in the middle." Liang Yuanhe explained patiently.
"Be bold!"
"Are you saying that we, Concubine Rong, are just idle people?"
"Call Di Yunhao!"
The personal maid Xiaorou stood up and started shouting.
Liang Yuanhe's face twitched and he forced himself to hold back his anger.
Your master didn't say anything, but you, a personal maid, dared to stand up and point fingers.
"Commander Di is busy tracking down clues about the assassin and is not here."
The attitude towards Xiaorou's words became obviously colder, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.
