Xia Shouzhong raised the sword in his hand and rushed forward, thinking of giving Liu Heng time to escape with a desperate fight. It's a pity that this group of men in black came well prepared, and just now they used a tiger to seduce Liu Heng to break away from the large army and come to this desperate place.
Xia Shouzhong was not good with swords. Seeing that the opponent's sword was only a palm away from his face, with a snap, the opponent's hand loosened, the sword fell to the ground, and his own sword pierced the opponent's chest.
No matter how bad the two houses of Rong and Ning are, they are still his family in this life. In recent years, Jia Cong has worked hard to change the family's decline. But in the face of the panic, the only person he could change as a child was his father, Jia She.
If you want to change the outcome of the Ning and Rong mansions, you must either succeed in the rebellion or rely on the emperor to make contributions, which makes the royal family inseparable from the support of the Jia family.
The first method was silently erased from Jia Cong's mind after he found out the history of Daxia and the current strength of the dynasty.
It was less than a hundred years after the founding of the country. Although Daxia had various problems, at this time of rebellion, not to mention that the soldiers and horses of the imperial court could defeat all threats, even the people who had gone through wars would not agree.
Then the only thing we can do is find a way to get his father Jia She into the emperor's favor, so that Rongguo Mansion can once again become the leader of Great Xia's martial arts just like his grandfather Jia Daishan did when he was there.
However, after the case of the first prince, Jia She gave up on himself and the new emperor did not trust him. Jia Cong still has no good solution for this road.
The group of black-clad assassins here and now gave Jia Cong a chance. There is nothing better than rescuing him. As long as Jia Cong finds a way to save Liu Heng, Liu Heng's character will definitely feel close to Rongguo Mansion.
Bang bang bang...
The stone bullets were fired without miss, and the bullets could not leave the hands of the men in black holding the swords. Due to the sudden pain, six or seven people's swords fell to the ground.
The only two remaining dragon guards took the opportunity to kill three people. Jia Cong reloaded and fired again, this time aiming at the eyes of the leader who seemed to be among them, because this person had already looked towards where he was hiding.
With a snap, the other party covered his eyes and roared: "There!"
"terrible!"
When Jia Cong saw two men in black rushing over, he quickly fired a stone bullet, turned around and ran away, regardless of whether it hit or not.
As he ran, he shouted: "Help! Someone is trying to kill me!"
The royal ban on logging bought Jia Cong time to escape. In the thick forest, the short Jia Cong was like a fish in water, keeping a long distance from the man in black.
As soon as he returned to War Donkey, he saw four extremely familiar figures flying past him. When he got on the donkey and came to the place where he was hiding, the two men in black who were chasing him had just fallen.
"Third uncle, fourth uncle, seventh uncle, ninth uncle, someone assassinates the king and kills him, let's go and save him!"
The Jia family's personal guards were all masters trained by Jia Daishan when he was still alive, and the art of combined attack had been baptized by the flames of war.
At Jia Cong's request, Jia San and others rushed out with knives and killed the men in black who were besieging Liu Heng.
Together with two dragon guards, six to thirteen, they managed to clear a safe zone. However, a black-clothed assassin hiding in the dark saw the right opportunity, kicked Xia Shouzhong away, and rushed to Liu Heng with a knife.
"Go to hell, Emperor Dog! The revenge of the holy brothers will be avenged today..."
puff!
Before he finished speaking, the man in black vomited blood and flew away, slamming him down the cliff.
"Yeah, eh!"
Liu Heng only heard a shrill bray of a donkey, and suddenly a donkey's face appeared in front of his eyes, spitting and screaming excitedly, and the hind hoof that had just kicked the black-clothed assassin away had not yet been retracted.
"Well done Dabao, I'll give you extra food tonight!"
Jia Cong slapped the war donkey's head, flew down and the donkey half-knelt down and saluted: "Jia Cong of the Rongguo Mansion came late to escort you, and your majesty was frightened. He deserves death!"
Liu Heng was as surprised as he wanted. The assassination was a surprise, being saved by a donkey was a surprise, and the child in front of him was a surprise again.
Before Liu Heng could react, Jia Cong had already stood up and stood in front of him, raising his slingshot to fire a stone bullet.
"Hey! Hit again!"
Jia San killed the assassin who was hit in the eye by a stone bullet with one blow, and immediately faced another person.
Liu Heng just watched Jia Cong's stone bullets flying out one after another. The bullets were all in vain. Either the assassin's hand holding the knife or his eyes were hit. They even hit the opponent's lower body twice, making him unable to help but feel his crotch. Next cool.
"Ha, I hit it again! It's a pity that there is no tiger for me to shoot."
The battle situation quickly reversed, and at the same time most of the Dragon Guards had arrived. Seeing that they were outmatched, the remaining assassins in black immediately prepared to flee.
"Chase!"
Liu Heng glanced indifferently at Cai Hui, the commander of the Dragon Guards who was kneeling and shivering, and wanted to kick him to death but endured it.
After all, he is from the imperial concubine's family. If he is not very capable, he is a bit lacking, but at least he is not loyal enough.
After he ordered the Dragon Guards to pursue the remaining four assassins, he set his sights on Jia Cong, who pretended to be ready and walked away.
"Jia Cong!"
"Ah, Your Majesty, did you call me?"
Jia Cong put the slingshot on his belt, came to Liu Heng obediently, raised his head and smiled.
Liu Heng instantly felt that this smiling face melted the ice in his heart. Such a cute doll would definitely be a loyal minister in the future. Don't ask what the relationship between loyalty and cuteness is. I am just a good-looking person. Who makes the Jia family look good!
"What is your relationship with Jia Enhou?"
"Your Majesty, you are talking about my father."
Liu Heng nodded, then looked at the four Rongguo Mansion guards who were guarding Jia Cong, waved his hand and said: "You guys go back and tell Marquis Jia En that Jia Cong did a great job in rescuing him. I will return to the camp to reward you later." I will send him back before dinner."
Jia San and others did not dare to disobey the holy order, so they bowed and made their promise and then retreated.
Liu Heng, who had experienced an assassination, seemed not to care at all about the danger of the talent, chatting with Jia Cong who was riding a donkey next to him.
"You are so young, how dare you risk your life alone to come to the rescue?"
"I'm not young anymore. I'm eight years old this year. I'm an adult at the age of eight!"
Jia Cong seems to be very resentful about his age. Even if he is said to be the emperor because of his younger age, he keeps arguing: "Besides, as a subject of His Majesty and a loyal minister, how can I retreat because of danger? I want to be a loyal minister and a good general. Man, even if you die in battle today, you must keep your majesty safe, otherwise in the future, if others say that Jia Cong of Rongguo Mansion is a deserter, wouldn't it be a disgrace to Rongguo Mansion?"
Liu Heng looked at Jia Cong on the donkey's back, straightening his back and patting his chest, talking about what he understood to be loyal to the emperor. Suddenly he felt that it was not funny at all. Instead, his heart was filled with contempt for some people in the court.
"Who taught you these words?"
Jia Cong touched the back of his head and smiled shyly: "My father taught me. He said that the men of Rongguo Mansion should learn from their ancestors and be loyal to His Majesty and die for His Majesty!"
Liu Heng felt disgusted when he thought of Jia She's disgusting face, and refuted with a cold snort: "Hmph! Do you think I will believe this? Jia Enhou didn't even come to the imperial meeting, so he told me Will he be loyal to me?"
"Isn't it your Majesty that you won't let my father go to court?" Jia Cong pretended to be surprised, pretending to be impeccable.
"When did I say this? After I succeeded to the throne, one of your Jia family went to practice Taoism outside the city, while the other stayed at home and did not go out. Did I have the opportunity to say this?"
Speaking of this matter, Liu Heng was also full of resentment. The Jia family belongs to the most powerful family among the martial arts in the capital, and it was also the one he originally wanted to win over.
Unfortunately, after he succeeded to the throne, he sent messages several times, but there was no response from the Jia family. Instead, they sent the eldest daughter of Jia Zheng of Rongguo Palace to Concubine Zhen of Longshou Palace.
This is not a slap in the face. What is this doing?
"But my father said that you were the one who sent the message, saying that my father was not worthy of being reused and that he should be left to die on the merits of his ancestors! Otherwise, you would not have let my second uncle take charge of the family and put me in charge. Dad rushed to live next to the stable. Who in the capital doesn’t know that Mr. Pardon of the Rongguo Mansion is next to the smelly stable, and he is known as the stable general."
Dad, don't blame me for saying bad things about you. Whether you can make His Majesty the Emperor feel sympathy and compassion depends on this move today.
