The appearance of the Dragon Guard directly reversed the situation on the battlefield. With Su Qi'an's cooperation, the battle to siege Yangliu County City was finally over.
The appearance of Long Wei was nothing until the Ninth Princess behind the scenes appeared, which shocked Su Qi'an.
He knew that this was not the time to talk, so he quickly led the carriage and eight guards into the city.
The order in the city is relatively stable. Even if a fierce battle breaks out, the people in the city are hiding in their homes in fear. Even if the war is over, they have no intention of going out.
This is Huo Cheng's order. There are many people in the city, and there are always some lawless people who take the opportunity to cause trouble.
There had been a fierce battle with the bandits before, but the security in the city had been neglected.
Some brave ones really dared to take the opportunity to cause trouble. Now that they look back, they can be dealt with easily.
So along the way, I found that the government officials and the hundreds of soldiers mobilized quickly captured the lawless people in the city.
In order to ensure the safety of the people and for fear of accidents, they were ordered to stay behind closed doors.
Huo Cheng led them all the way, just as everyone was about to approach the county governor's house.
A girl's figure rushed out from the side. This time, Huo Cheng had quick eyesight and quick hands. His soldiers stepped forward and controlled the woman.
This girl has long hair, wearing clean clothes, with a fair face, and a pair of innocent eyes, revealing a little perseverance.
Judging from his youth, he must be around twenty-four or five years old, but he is tall and slim.
Although he was controlled, he remained silent, gritted his teeth, and stared at Su Qi'an.
Su Qi'an was a little surprised by this girl who appeared suddenly. He always felt like he had seen these determined eyes somewhere.
At this time, a group of government officials ran quickly from a distance and hurriedly followed Su Qi'an and Huo Cheng to explain.
This girl was none other than the beggar Su Qian accidentally gave alms to when she last entered the city.
Unexpectedly, she was a slim girl, and looking at her, there was no hostility in her appearance, but only gratitude.
According to the introduction of the yamen servant, this girl was very stubborn after washing herself. She did not go to the arranged refugee residence, but stayed near the governor's house.
No matter who came, it was not easy. They were probably waiting for Su Qi'an, and seemed to want to sell themselves to Su Qi'an to express their gratitude.
When these words were spoken, everyone had strange looks on their faces, and even Guard Lin behind him made inexplicable teasing when he heard it.
"Haha, Mr. Su is so charming. Even in Jiaozhou, he has good luck."
Amidst the teasing, there seemed to be some weird atmosphere in the carriage behind. It felt like a needle pricking Su Qi'an's back, making him very uncomfortable.
At this time, the voice of the ninth princess in the carriage sounded, "Since Lord Su is so lucky, let this girl come over. I think Lord Su does lack a maid to take care of him."
Although Ninth Princess spoke calmly, there was a strong sense of jealousy in her words.
The Ninth Princess had already spoken, and Su Qi'an couldn't stop her. He waved his hand and motioned for the girl to come forward.
Su Qian had already planned to make it clear to this person and find her a good place to live a good life.
It's impossible to keep him with you, and he doesn't come to Jiaozhou to enjoy the blessings. Who can tell what dangers he will encounter next.
It's quite inconvenient to have a maid with you.
The girl stepped forward and still looked at Su Qi'an with innocent eyes, as if she really recognized him.
This gave Su Qian a headache, but he calmed down first and asked.
"Girl, what's your name, and where is your family."
The girl just shook her head and said nothing, like a mute.
Through the government officials, they found out that this girl was not mute, but she just didn't like to talk. They had heard this person chanting Su Qian's name before.
Su Qian asked another question in a different way, "Girl, I'm used to being alone. I really don't need a maid to take care of you. Let's do it this way. If you have any requests, as long as I can fulfill them, just ask."
After she finished speaking, the girl's mouth obviously moved, but her voice was too soft for Su Qi'an to hear clearly. He took a few steps forward and asked, "Girl, what did you say?" and asked again.
The girl moved her mouth again, and this time Su Qi'an heard clearly. She said two words, "Kill you!"
As soon as the words fell, Su Qi'an's body became cold and the hair stood on end. He immediately reacted and backed away sharply.
Although Su Qi'an reacted quickly, the girl in front of him was even faster. Almost at the moment she said kill Su Qi'an, her palm directly moved towards Su Qi'an's neck.
The innocent look in his eyes just now suddenly turned into a bone-chilling coldness.
Su Qi'an's neck, the dagger emitting cold light, lightly scratched, the dagger still touched Su Qi'an, but Su Qi'an's reaction was faster, and the dagger left a slight blood mark on his neck.
The blow failed, as if she had expected that the blow would fail. The cold woman with cold eyes quickly stepped forward.
Turning his hands, two daggers appeared, one up and one down, stabbing Su Qi'an's shoulders and chest at the same time.
This man gave Su Qi'an a strong sense of crisis. This sense of crisis was something he had never experienced in the past few years since he came to Great Liang. For the first time, he felt that he was so close to death.
This woman changes her attitude at any time, whether it's her body skills, speed, ruthlessness in her attacks, or even her prediction after a miss.
They are not comparable to ordinary killers and assassins. Even the Thousand-Faced King who assassinated him last time, known as the second in the killer list, is nothing compared to the woman in front of him.
Su Qi'an wanted to pull away, but it was too late. The woman's speed was too fast. He could only watch as the two daggers were inserted into his shoulders and chest.
After the blow was successful, the woman had no intention of pulling away. She made gestures with her hands and used force to make Su Qian's death more complete.
But her reaction was faster. She inserted the dagger into Su Qian's shoulder, and her chest was already at its limit.
The third time he came, the guard company behind him didn't give him a chance to take action.
In the blink of an eye, people from the security company swarmed forward with swords in hand. Not only the security company, but also the eight guards protecting the Ninth Princess jumped up and were ordered to take down the female assassin.
At this time, Su Qi'an fell down in a daze. In the carriage, the figure of the ninth princess jumped down and quickly came to Su Qi'an's side.
Her voice was urgent and she whispered, "Quick, call the doctor! Please excuse me, doctor, go quickly!"
Everyone could feel the anxiety and anger of the Ninth Princess. Huo Cheng beside him did not dare to neglect and ordered people to carry Su Qi'an into the county governor's mansion as quickly as possible.
Everyone hurriedly carried the unconscious Su Qian in.
As for the female assassin who had previously assassinated Su Qi'an, she escaped unscathed after being rounded up by a security company and eight guards.
This made Huo Cheng quite angry. His face was livid, his fists were clenched, and he looked at the confused government officials around him. His eyes were filled with anger, and he wanted to break their hearts.
Su Qi'an was the benefactor of their Yangliu County City. He was not injured at the hands of the bandits, but was actually injured by a female assassin in his city. He fell into a coma and did not know whether he was alive or dead.
For Huo Cheng, this was not only a slap in the face, but also a naked insult.
This female assassin passed through his hands, and he even asked the government officials to investigate it.
But in the end, something like this happened. If he didn't give an explanation for this matter, he wouldn't have to think about it. Most people would think that this female assassin was deliberately arranged by him.
If he jumped into the Yellow River, he wouldn't be able to clean himself up.
Moreover, the mistress of the carriage gave him a direct order when she entered the county mansion.
If the female assassin could not be caught, he would not need to take the position of county guard.
Being able to say this and give orders to him, Huo Cheng clearly felt that he had the aura of a superior person.
Huo Cheng had seen that kind of temperament once and felt it in Su Qi'an. It was a noble temperament unique to the royal family.
Think about it, being able to mobilize an army of men in black that is as terrifying as divine soldiers descending from the earth, this is
The status of a woman is mostly that of the royal family.
Moreover, she is a woman, and she is surrounded by eight powerful guards. Judging from her age, the only one who can match her is probably the Ninth Princess who is loved by His Majesty.
Thinking of this, Huo Cheng's heart was filled with horror. The arrival of Su Qi'an had already turned Jiaozhou upside down, and the addition of the Ninth Princess could not turn Jiaozhou upside down.
At this time, Huo Cheng had no intention of thinking about this. The top priority now was to capture the female assassin immediately, no matter what the cost.
Soon, Huo Cheng gathered his troops. This time, not only his local soldiers were dispatched, but also the men in black with terrifying combat power.
Huo Cheng said bluntly to his subordinates, "If the female assassin cannot be caught, not only will I lose my official position, but all of you, one by one, will suffer the same fate as me."
"Cheer up, I. If anyone is careless, like last time, I will be the first to chop off your head."
Huo Cheng was really angry this time. He had no way out from this arrest, it was just a last-ditch fight.
Following Huo Cheng's order, the mighty army immediately mobilized.
No matter what, Huo Cheng couldn't let this person leave Yangliu County. As long as this female assassin stayed in Yangliu County for a day, she wouldn't be able to escape.
In Yangliu County, the assassination of Su Qian spread at an alarming speed.
After all, it was Su Qi'an who was assassinated. Su Qi'an was in the Jiaozhou area and had a very good reputation recently.
Especially since he is the commander-in-chief of the bandit suppression in Jiaozhou, any county guard in Jiaozhou, even if they have never met Su Qi'an, will already hear his name like thunder.
And this time he was assassinated in the street, and it seemed that the assassination was successful. No matter how much control Huo Cheng had, it was impossible to cover up such a major event.
In less than a day, the news of Su Qian's assassination quickly spread throughout Jiaozhou. All the county guards and priests were stunned when they heard about it.
When they came to their senses, the first thing they did was to ask each other whether the assassination was arranged by the other party.
