Seeing that the horse was about to hit him one meter away, Xiao Rui could even feel the murderous intent of the horse. Yes, this must be a military horse that had been on the battlefield. Using military horse-drawn carriages? It seems that the identity of the person in the car is not simple.
Xiao Rui's mouth curved slightly, and he sneered: "Ringing on horseback to kill people in the street late at night? I don't know whose dude he is."
"Be careful, get out of the way!" The watchman in the distance saw this scene. Unfortunately, the distance was so far that by the time his voice reached him, he would have been knocked away.
The watchman was so frightened that he couldn't bear to look and closed his eyes. When he opened his eyes again, he stood there blankly with his mouth open.
The imaginary pedestrian was knocked away and did not appear. Instead, the carriage, including people and horses, was scattered all over the place.
On Xiao Rui's side, when the horse collided head-on, he took a half step forward with his left foot, made a fist with his right hand, drew an arc from back to front, and punched down hard, hitting the head of the horse that was charging at full speed.
In the flash of lightning, in the astonished eyes of the coachman, the horse was knocked to the ground. The carriage that rushed up at high speed hit the fallen horse due to inertia. With a crackling exclamation, Xiao Rui patted He clapped his hands and looked at the dead horse, broken car, and two disabled people on the ground.
Li Yian, who was drunk in the carriage, was knocked unconscious. The driver hit the horse's belly and bounced to the ground. Therefore, he did not die. He only broke an arm and suffered serious internal injuries, but he was still conscious.
Seeing Xiao Rui coming with a smile, the coachman was frightened. That was not a smile, that was the smile of death.
"You, don't come here. Do you know who we are? In the car is my young master. We belong to the Prince of Ngee Ann County. He is our prince's second prince. If you dare to hurt my young master, the prince will not let you go. …”
Xiao Rui sneered and said: "What a dog relying on human power. You are a little coachman, but you are so ruthless. Since you want to kill me, then be prepared to be killed. Killers will always be killed! Don't worry, on the road to Huangquan, Your young master will accompany you."
You, you...save...
Before the driver could call for help, Xiao Rui kicked him and broke his neck.
He opened the fragments of the carriage and found Li Yi'an inside. Looking at the drunken young man with pieces of wood stuck in his body, Xiao Rui shook his head and sighed: "It's really a narrow road for enemies. I didn't want to argue with you. You bumped into it yourself. It's hard for the King of Hell to save you. You're looking for death." Ghost, tsk tsk..."
After saying that, he kicked and broke Li Yi'an's neck using the same technique.
Ga... The watchman in the distance was so frightened that his throat twitched and he actually made a sound.
Xiao Rui turned around and saw, hey, there is another witness.
"Who? Dare to make trouble in Chang'an City?" Wu Hou, who was patrolling the streets, heard the noise and hurried over.
Xiao Rui glanced disdainfully and quickly disappeared into the dark alley next to him. When Marquis Wu arrived, there was no trace of anyone left. Therefore, the watchman was taken to Wuhou Yamen for questioning.
But when someone recognized that the murdered man was the prince of Ngee Ann County, the only witness was unlucky. He was interrogated all night, and was finally thrown into prison directly. It is unknown why.
General Wuhou, who was on duty, personally inspected the scene. Looking at the horse that had been killed, the general who had been on the battlefield was frightened. There are no generals who can kill a war horse with one punch, but how many can there be in the Tang Dynasty? There are only a handful of them, and all of them are fierce generals who can defeat ten thousand enemies.
But among those fierce generals, who would have trouble with a child from the Wang family in Ngee Ann County?
According to what the watchman said, it was the son of the Wang family of Nghe An County who had people drive a carriage into passers-by, and was then killed by passers-by? In this way, this guy's death was not unjust, but the Prince of Ngee An County doesn't agree with this statement, right?
The more he thought about it, the more upset he became. General Wuhou was in trouble, so he finally had to report it to his superior, the Guards General on duty - Youwuwei General Liu Deyu.
Liu Deyu was shocked and thought, no, he just sent his son to meet this Li Yian today. That night, Li Yian was beaten to death in the street. Could it be that he was murdered to silence him? Then what we are planning...hiss!
Taking advantage of the notice to summon Li Xiaochang, the king of Ngee An County, Liu Deyu communicated with him in private.
Li Xiaochang was originally grieving for his son, but when he heard Liu Deyu's worries, he immediately ignored them and broke into a cold sweat.
"Tell your son to avoid the limelight, don't go out recently, and find a way to inform the eldest grandson's family. If it is to kill people and silence them, it won't be just for Erlang. Wait a few days to see the situation. We are doing things very covertly. If The higher-ups know about it and they only investigate secretly. How can they kill people in the street? We need to stay calm, calm down, and wait and see what happens."
Liu Deyu nodded heavily, "We can't just let this matter go. No matter who it is, killing a prince's son on the street is a felony. We are not good at investigating cases. We can go to Chang'an County to report the case tomorrow. I will definitely urge them and send a few A master of solving crimes."
Li Xiaochang waved his hand to stop the other party, "Well, according to the witness, it was Erlang who committed the crime on horseback and was killed by others. The fault was Quanzi, he...ah! It's better not to make a big fuss, it's all his own fault."
"There is only one witness at the scene, and he has been controlled by my people. I made him disappear directly, and then this case became someone who assassinated the prince of Ngee An County in the street..." Liu Deyu said with an idea.
Li Xiaochang pondered for a long time, but still shook his head, "Forget it, let him go. In special times, we can't create extraneous problems, and don't let His Majesty get the handle."
Liu Deyu didn't try to persuade him any more, thinking to himself, who could bear the pain of losing a child? This Prince of Nghe An is really not an ordinary person. He can endure things that ordinary people cannot. It seems that it is right to cooperate with him.
Xiao Rui climbed over the walls alone, becoming invisible and sneaking around. When he returned to his home, he climbed over the wall and quietly came to his father's study window to take a peek. Not to mention, was he really sleeping in the study? In this winter, can the study room be occupied?
He climbed through the window and entered the study, waking up his sleeping father and startling Xiao Yu.
"Da Lang? What are you doing?"
"Don't make any noise, I climbed over the wall and window and came back quietly."
"What??? Climb over walls and windows? Come back secretly? What happened to you, your boy...?" Xiao Yu was shocked. Could it be that his son had committed the serious crime of beheading and was about to run away and come back secretly late at night? Say goodbye?
Through the light, Xiao Rui saw the look in his father's eyes and knew that he had gone wrong.
"Dad, where do you want to go?"
Xiao Rui quickly told the story, including the killing of Li Yi'an just now.
Xiao Yu's brain was a little unable to react, "Wait a minute, speak slower, what did you just say? Those guys wanted to rebel? And then you killed someone along the way? Dalang, this is not a story you made up, right?"
There are three black lines hanging down Xiao Rui's forehead. It's late at night. I climbed over the wall and came in. Do you want to make up a story with you?
"Who dares to joke about military affairs? In order to keep it secret, I cannot make any announcement when I go home this time."
"You're sending the princess back to the palace. You can't hide it, so you don't have to climb over the wall to go home, right?" Xiao Yu pointed out.
"Didn't I just kill a dandy? Although no one knows that I did it, everyone now says that I am the evil star of Chang'an. If not, someone will rely on me. I secretly came back for one night and saw you and my mother. , I will quietly leave the city early tomorrow morning and return to the construction site." Xiao Rui explained.
"As for the truth or falsehood, you can ask His Majesty tomorrow. By the way, I killed that Li Yi'an. Remember to pay attention to the reaction of Li Xiaochang, the king of Yuan'an County. If he makes a big fuss in Chang'an, it means there is no problem. If he doesn't dare to make a big fuss, he will be false. , proving that he has a guilty conscience."
Xiao Yu shook his head and said: "My son was killed in the street. Isn't Li Xiaochang going crazy? It's impossible to follow the story."
Xiao Rui didn't argue, thinking that was not necessarily the case.
That night, the father and son spent the night together in the study. Xiao Rui finally understood why his father had a soft couch in his study. I didn’t understand it before, but now it seems that it’s so sensible.
