With excitement in his heart, Yao Qian went to wash up carefully, put on a gorgeous robe, put on a gold crown, put on the sachet, and took care of everything meticulously, looking like a human being.
Yao Qian looked at himself in the bronze mirror and couldn't help but admire him, what a handsome young man!
What a handsome gentleman!
This kind of self will definitely attract the attention of Daqian singers.
After Yao Gan packed up, he happily left the post house and prepared to board the carriage and leave. The moment he walked to the carriage, a shout suddenly came from the street: "His Royal Highness!"
The moment Yao Qian heard it, he followed the sound and looked over.
I saw a middle-aged man wearing black clothes, with a rugged appearance and a strong build striding over. In the blink of an eye, he was less than ten steps away from Yao Gan.
Yao Qian didn't have any alertness at all. Instead, he raised his head slightly, looked arrogant, and said with an air of dignity: "Who are you? What do you want to see me for?"
"Send you to hell."
The middle-aged burly man's eyes widened and he roared. The hand in his sleeve suddenly stretched out and stabbed in Yao Gan's direction with a dagger.
boom!
Yao Gan's mind seemed to explode.
The whole person panicked.
"Help!"
Yao Gan roared loudly, looked at the middle-aged man who was rushing toward him quickly, and shouted with great strength: "Don't come over!"
The middle-aged man's momentum of rushing forward continued unabated. In a few blinks, he was less than three steps away from Yao Qian.
Yao Gan saw the middle-aged man's arm raised, the dagger flashing with a cold light. He panicked and pushed his followers out to resist, then turned around and tried to run away. But he was next to the carriage, tripped on the wheel, and stumbled to the ground.
The middle-aged man stabbed Yao Qian's entourage to death, grinning: "Yao Qian, you can't run away, go to hell!"
Along with the sound, the dagger stabbed hard.
"call out!"
A harsh sound broke through the air.
As soon as the middle-aged man heard the sound, he suddenly felt something bad, and became even more nervous and nervous. He wanted to kill Yao Qian regardless of the cold arrows fired at him.
boom! !
The crossbow arrow pierced the middle-aged man's arm holding the dagger impartially, and blood overflowed. A look of pain appeared on the middle-aged man's face, and the arm that was thrust downwards also paused, losing the momentum it had just now.
boom! boom! !
Two more sounds broke through the air.
Two crossbow arrows shot out like lightning. One hit the middle-aged man's right shoulder, and the other hit the middle-aged man's right wrist.
A heart-pounding pain came, and the middle-aged man's hand loosened his grip, and the dagger fell to the ground with a clang. Half of his arm had fallen and he could no longer lift it.
The middle-aged man knew that the assassination failed and did not dare to delay. He quickly turned around and ran away.
"If you want to run away, take it!"
The chief official of a hundred households in Dongchang rushed up, punched the middle-aged man on the body, knocked the middle-aged man on his hands, controlled him again, removed his chin, and finally tied him up with his backhand.
Yao Gan came to his senses, stood up quickly, looked at the middle-aged man who was about to assassinate him, kicked him several times to vent his anger, and asked: "Who instigated you, who asked you to kill me?"
The middle-aged man frowned and said nothing, ignoring Yao Qian.
Yao Qian was angry and gave up the idea of looking for flowers and willows. He looked at the Dongchang soldiers who took action and asked, "Thank you for your rescue. Who are you?"
The hundred households in Dongchang said directly: "We will wait for His Majesty's order to secretly protect the prince."
call! !
Yao Gan breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the emperor arranged for someone to protect him, otherwise he would have died today.
Thinking that someone was going to assassinate him, Yao Qian became more nervous than ever before. He no longer went to the brothel or trained his second brother, so he went to the imperial city to meet Zhao Shan.
Entering the palace, Yao Qian saw Zhao Shanhou and said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I have been assassinated. You have to make the decision for me."
Zhao Shan knew this a long time ago and said with a smile: "Dongchang has arrested someone and is currently interrogating him. Everything will be completely sorted out soon."
Yao Qian said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Zhao Shan shook his head and said: "It is my duty to protect your safety. If you are assassinated by someone with ulterior motives at the foot of the imperial city of Daqian, where will my face be put aside?"
"Yes Yes!"
Yao Gan nodded hurriedly.
Zhao Shan comforted Yao Qian again, saying that he would investigate, further deceiving and bewitching Yao Qian, and strengthening Yao Qian's determination to take power and become emperor.
Not long after, Zhang Xu came in and reported in a low voice.
Zhao Shan nodded, and Zhang Xu followed and left.
Yao Qian quickly said: "Your Majesty, have you found out?"
Zhao Shan nodded and said: "We have found out and arrested the person."
"who is it?"
Yao Qian asked with red eyes.
He was filled with rage and wanted to kill the person behind the scenes immediately.
Zhao Shan said: "The result of the interrogation is that it was arranged by Shusunchang and he wanted to assassinate you."
"This damn old bastard!"
Yao Qian was angry in his heart and gritted his teeth and said: "This old bastard, Shusunchang, wants to kill me just because I punched him. It's really hateful."
Zhao Shan explained: "The reason why Uncle Sun Chang killed you was not because you hit him. This is the most trivial thing. He wanted to kill you because you died in Luoyang and could provoke a fight between Daqian and Xiliang." The conflict between the two countries caused the two countries to go to war. When the time comes, the Northern Wei Dynasty can just sit back and watch, and there is no need to talk about compensation. "
hiss!
Yao Qian took a breath when he heard this.
Angry eyes!
Even more shocked!
I didn't expect that this old guy Shusunchang could be so sinister and vicious.
Yao Qian was extremely angry. After a while, Shusunchang was escorted into the hall.
Yao Qian walked over angrily and started punching and kicking him to vent his anger.
After a long time, Yao Qian let go and looked at Zhao Shan and said: "Your Majesty, this old bastard Shu Sun Chang is hateful and deserves to be killed. He actually murdered me and tried to provoke a conflict. Please kill Uncle Sun Chang and enforce the law." .”
Shusunchang said loudly: "Emperor Qian, I didn't want to kill Yao Qian. I don't understand what happened?"
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "Uncle Sun Chang, your killer has confessed, do you think sophistry is useful?"
Shusunchang's heart sank.
On the way here, he thought about the situation if the assassination failed, otherwise he would not be caught.
Now, it is even more impossible to defend.
Yao Qian urged again: "Your Majesty, unless Shusunchang dies, all those who yearn for Daqian will be disappointed. If Shusunchang doesn't die, how can Daqian's face be saved? Please His Majesty the Emperor, kill Shusunchang." "
Shusunchang was not afraid of death and begged for death: "Zhao Shan, the assassination of Yao Qian was arranged by me and has nothing to do with the Northern Wei Dynasty. If you want to kill, then kill, if you want to behead, then behead. It's a pity that Yao Qian, a waste, is allowed to live. He will die." Okay, everything will be fine."
"You deserve to die!"
Yao Qian became even more angry.
Call him a waste?
Uncle Sun Chang is even more incompetent and useless.
Zhao Shan smiled and said: "Your uncle Sun Chang deserves to die, but if you die, wouldn't it be a dead end? If you say it has nothing to do with the Northern Wei Dynasty, does it mean it has nothing to do with it? You are an envoy of the Northern Wei Dynasty, and your representative is the Northern Wei Dynasty."
"People from the Northern Wei Dynasty's mission assassinated my guests in front of me. The Northern Wei Dynasty must give me an explanation. I will tell Tuoba Hong about this and let him give me an explanation."
Zhao Shan said: "Your uncle Sun Chang must still be alive for the time being."
brush!
Uncle Sun Chang's face changed drastically.
If he succeeds in assassinating Yao Qian, he can provoke a war between Daqian and Xiliang. Now that the intention has been exposed, Zhao Shan will use this matter to ask Tuoba Hong to give an explanation again, which will be very difficult for Tuoba Hong.
He was self-defeating.
