In the sedan chair, King Xin, who was analyzing all kinds of information, finally had to sigh and said:
: "Ping Jiangbo's Mansion and Wu Qinghou's Mansion, right? Since you are looking for death, don't blame me."
Zhu Youjian really doesn't want to move against these powerful people now. After all, he is just a prince and has no power in his hands.
According to what happened this time, the best way is to dispatch 8 centurions to quickly transport money to each bank.
However, the guards from Prince Xin's Mansion and the guards assigned by Emperor Tianqi to the bank totaled only 200 people.
After deducting the more than 20 guards detained by the Wucheng Soldiers and Horses Division and the guards guarding Prince Xin's Mansion, Zhu Youjian could only come up with so many people.
Otherwise, Zhu Youjian wouldn't have to be so passive.
It's past noon.
From the perspective of farmers and bank employees, banks have less and less money, but the crowds are still there. The anxiety began to spread inside and outside the bank again.
Although farmers and bank employees think in different directions, they are both worried about the decrease in money.
The road conditions in the capital were not very good either. The heavy silver car moved very slowly, and the guards accompanying the car could only lend a helping hand from time to time.
Although it was the capital city, the crowds on the streets became much thinner after noon. In this era, most people are accustomed to eating only two meals. After noon, it is the time when ordinary people are most sleepy.
The silver car moved slowly along the long street. Unlike the leader of the guards who escorted him in the morning, they were all sent back from Su Polu.
Most of today's guards are people who have been at ease for a long time.
Although so many things happened in the morning, most of the guards were still not completely nervous.
In their minds, how could a vicious accident happen in the capital city and at the feet of the emperor?
What's more, the silver car is guarded by so many people.
If such a large convoy dares to attack, then the other party is either crazy or wants to rebel, right?
The rebellion didn't start in the capital, right? Do you really think there is no one in Ming Dynasty?
The silver car is still moving slowly.
The money still needed to be sent to 6 branches. Time was tight, so the guard leader Zhang had to arrange for the guards to take turns pushing the cart, hoping to increase the speed of travel.
But as a result, the guards became even more complaining.
An accident happened.
Two streets away from the first target branch, a gunshot rang out nearby.
Subsequently. The silver car convoy came under fierce attack.
Crossbow arrows, the first wave of attacks Yin Che suffered was actually crossbow arrows.
Oh my God, this is the capital, and there are actually crossbows ambushing the convoy.
Although there were warning shots.
But many guards had no time to dodge, and were shot to the ground with huge doubts.
As the leader of the guard, Commander Zhang reacted quickly. As soon as the bowstring sounded, he turned over and hid behind the silver car. A flying crossbow arrow flew past his shoulder but did not hit him.
Commander Zhang, who hid behind the silver car, quickly understood the situation. He secretly complained that there were at least ten archers on the other side. With just this wave of attacks, 3 or 4 of the guards fell.
Fortunately, the prince's sedan chair was not attacked. It's a blessing among misfortunes.
Watching the guards' disorderly reaction, Commander Zhang shouted sternly: "You bastards, hide quickly, don't be a fucking target."
The remaining guards reacted when they heard the cry and hurriedly hid behind the silver car.
Seeing the panicked reactions of the guards, Commander Zhang spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, "Damn, they are all chicks who have never seen blood. Why am I so unlucky this time?"
Sensing the panic of the guards, Commander Zhang shouted loudly: "Hide well and wait for them to come. Let us take our time with them. Time is on our side."
Yes, with such a vicious incident happening in the capital, it is estimated that the Five Cities Soldiers and Horse Guards and the Jin Yiwei will arrive soon.
No matter how powerful the opponent is, they can't fight against the capital's army. After thinking about this, the guards relaxed a little.
"Bang, bang, bang" several fierce gunshots came from behind. It turned out that the guards brought by Li Baihu arrived.
Knowing that His Highness King Xin was hiding in the sedan, Li Baihu took more than 50 guards in civilian clothes and hid behind the convoy. After hearing the gunshot, he suddenly became nervous and hurriedly led people to support.
Soon, under the leadership of Li Baihu, the ambushers suffered heavy losses in an instant. You must know that the fire guns in the hands of Li Baihu and the others were not ordinary. They were once the face of the Beijing camp, and they did not stop training after entering Prince Xin's Mansion.
In addition, as required, everyone stuffed two layers of leather armor inside when going out. The opponent's crossbow arrows hitting them would not cause fatal injuries at all.
Although the people in ambush were armed with sharp weapons, they lacked armor.
According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, those who hide their armor will be punished.
This is the capital, and even if they have 100 courage, they shouldn't be running back and forth in armor.
In an instant, the ambushers naturally suffered heavy losses. He could only hide in the small building next to him and survive.
The two sides were in a stalemate for about a stick of incense.
There was a roar of people in the distance, and people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Jinyi Guards were here.
The ambush men and horses hiding in the small building were all killed in the end.
At the same time, the news that King Xin was assassinated in the street also reached the ears of Emperor Tianqi.
Emperor Tianqi immediately ordered to leave the capital camp and enter the capital.
The city gates were closed and the entire city was under martial law. Jinyiwei and Dongchang investigate the matter strictly.
In Pingjiang Bo's Mansion in the capital, a team of Jin Yiwei and Dongchang guards rushed directly into Pingjiang Bo's Mansion, regardless of the obstruction by the guards of Pingjiang Bo's Mansion. Half a quarter of an hour later, everyone in Pingjiang Bo's Mansion was brought back to the Jin Yiwei prison.
The same scene also happened in the Wuqing Marquis Mansion and the palace of the commander of the Wucheng Army and Horses Division.
Beijing, that secret teahouse
When the news came that Uncle Ping Jiang's mansion was sealed and that Uncle Ping Jiang was imprisoned, everyone in the tea house was extremely shocked. Their eyes when they looked at Zheng Yingtai became evasive.
The once fiery atmosphere in the tea house became completely cold. From time to time, people left silently and never came back.
Zheng Yingtai was extremely angry.
"Didn't they try to delay the silver car? How could this happen?" Zheng Yingtai couldn't figure out how his design could become like this?
"Lost." Zheng Yingtai, who came back to his senses, felt bitter in his heart. "Even if we can successfully create the illusion that Qiming Bank has no money today and successfully provoke a run on the residents of the capital, it will be of no use."
He still didn't know that King Xin was in that team.
With a "Peng" sound, the door of the private room was kicked open.
Before anyone could get angry, the leading Jin Yiwei said directly: "Zheng Yingtai, your murder of King Xin has been leaked. Your Majesty has ordered that not one of the nine Zheng family members be left alive.
You accomplices..."
"It's impossible to murder King Xin and kill the nine tribes, no," Zheng Yingtai shouted in horror. He didn't understand how it could turn into murdering King Xin just by letting the other party delay the silver car?
Everyone else present was frightened, and some were even so frightened that they peed their pants.
Who is King Xin? His Majesty’s most favored person today.
Murdering King Xin is seeking death.
Even if there is a little connection, it is really a matter of death.
