Chen Kan has seen dead people.
But most of the people Chen Kan had seen died of old age, illness, or even drowned.
This was the first time Chen Kan had seen a dead person like this with black blood still bleeding from his neck after death.
"Ugh, wow..."
Chen Kan vomited.
He vomited until the sky was dark and the earth was dark.
Even the big fish and meat eaten in Jinyiwei Yamen were spit out.
Fang Xu frowned and asked, "Sir, are you okay?"
People in Jinyiwei are born to deal with dead people or people who are about to die.
Fang Xu had seen much more than this dead man who was a hundred times a thousand times more bloody.
Fang Xu was responsible for many of the deaths.
So in his opinion, this adult's performance seemed a bit too unbearable.
Chen Kan waved his hands and said, "I didn't...vomit!"
Finally, after vomiting nothing more, Chen Kan collapsed on the ground.
His face was sallow, like a playboy who had overindulged in sexual activities.
"Sir, are you okay?"
Fang Xu took off the sheepskin water bottle from his waist and handed it to Chen Kan, with a hint of curiosity on his face.
Chen Kan shook his head and said weakly: "No, I'm not well at all now."
"Sir, have you just arrived at Jinyiwei?"
"Yes, I just came to report today."
"I see."
Fang Xu nodded with sudden realization.
No wonder you react like this when you see a dead person.
To put on the bullfighting uniform at such a young age, I wonder who came to Jinyiwei after some great achievements to gain seniority.
"Bah, you dandy boy!"
Chen Kan didn't know yet that he had been labeled as a playboy.
After regaining some strength, he wandered over to the three corpses.
Chen Kan didn't vomit this time because he had already vomited everything in his stomach.
Fang Xu squatted next to the corpse, opened the mouth of the corpse, looked at Chen Kan and said: "Sir, generally speaking, if the dead soldiers are raised, the master will usually cut out the tongues of the dead soldiers to prevent them from being caught. The news was leaked, but these three assassins still have their tongues.”
Chen Kan suppressed his nausea and looked along Fang Xu's hand. As expected, the assassin's tongue was still there.
"But the three assassins, after falling into a desperate situation, were very determined to commit suicide and looked like dead soldiers, so my subordinates said they were not sure."
Fang Xu stood up and said, in fact, the situation has become obvious by now. These three assassins are here for Chen Kan.
Chen Kan asked: "Didn't they find any useful clues on them?"
Fang Xu shook his head and said, "No, the only things the assassin carried were two knives and a bow. There were no clues on the knives or the bow."
"Fine......"
"By the way, since you are the princess's bodyguards and are not guarding Her Royal Highness on the other side of the river, why are you here?"
As soon as Chen Kan said this, a look of embarrassment flashed across Fang Xu's face.
Then he responded: "My subordinates heard that there was a disciple on the other side of the river who disturbed the noble man, so he brought his people over to take a look. Unexpectedly, he happened to encounter an assassin who was so bold that he dared to assassinate the noble man, so he led his brothers to subdue him. Assassin."
"oh!"
Chen Kan nodded and said, "That's it."
However, there was a gangster on the other side of the river. Why didn’t I see him?
Wait, that deceiver is talking about you, right?
Chen Kan thought for a while and felt that it shouldn't be him. After all, he studied under the Confucian scholar, read the books of sages, and learned the ways of saints.
How could he be a deceiver!
Coincidence, just coincidence.
"What are your plans now? Do you need two people from my subordinates to escort you back to the Yamen first?"
"No, I and Her Highness the Princess are old acquaintances. Since you want to protect Her Highness the Princess, I will go back with you later."
Chen Kan rejected Fang Xu's kindness.
Only sending two people to take him back, what if he encounters another assassin on the way?
It's better to stay safe with the cute girl with big eyes.
Fang Xu was a little hesitant. After all, he had never seen Chen Kan in Jinyiwei.
In case Her Royal Highness is disturbed...
Seeing the hesitation on Fang Xu's face, Chen Kan raised his head and asked, "What, can't you?"
As the saying goes, the first level of officialdom kills people, so Fang Xu had no choice but to refuse Chen Kan's request.
Gritting his teeth, he thought to himself that even if this person was a fake, with him and so many brothers around, he wouldn't be able to make any trouble.
He no longer hesitated and responded: "Yes, Sir, can these three corpses be transported back to the Yamen?"
Chen Kan shook his head: "No need, there are no clues anyway, you just deal with it."
There are no clues on the assassin, but no clues are sometimes the biggest clues.
Now that Chen Kan had calmed down, he had some speculations about the origin of the assassin.
He used to be a nerd. He was always kind to others and had no enemies.
And I have only been in Ming Dynasty for four days, and I haven't had time to make enemies with others.
Since there is no personal hatred, it is easy to guess who wants Chen Kan dead.
It's not a personal grudge, it's just a stance.
The only person who is opposed to Chen Kan is one person, or a group of people.
Lord of the vassal!
Everyone knew that Zhu Di wanted to cut down the vassal vassal, but they just didn't bring it up on the table.
And Zhu Di asked him to go to Jinyiwei to assist Li Jinglong, although he did not explicitly say that he was asked to reduce the vassal.
But who can guarantee that there are no smart people among the vassal kings?
Furthermore, Chen Kan did not believe that the vassal kings would sit still and wait for death.
Placing spies around Zhu Di and bribing the Jin Yiwei were basic operations that even Chen Kan wanted to achieve. There was no reason why the vassal kings would not think of them.
They had no chance to assassinate Zhu Di, or they did not dare to assassinate Zhu Di. And Li Jinglong is recognized by everyone as a fool, so there is no need for them to risk assassinating Li Jinglong.
Then it seems reasonable to send assassins to kill himself, the main player in the vassal reduction.
After thinking about these things, Chen Kan's face darkened.
I just received the imperial edict to go to the Jinyi Guard yesterday. I just reported to the Jinyi Guard at noon today, and was assassinated in the afternoon.
Are all the vassals of the Ming Dynasty fast men?
Chen Kan didn’t believe it!
For the vassal king who has established his vassal in the fiefdom, the spies can't just pass on the news that he is going to the Imperial Guard to them in one day, let alone send an assassin to give him a fatal blow after getting the news. Well, there are no telephones in this era.
Then, the identity of the person behind the scenes will be revealed.
The only vassal kings in Beijing now are Prince Ning, who was deceived by Zhu Di into Duoyan Sanwei, and Prince Jin, who came to Beijing privately without an edict three days ago.
Only they could find out the exact information and dispatch the assassins in such a short period of time.
"Zhu Jixi, I will fucking kill your whole family!"
Chen Kan gritted his teeth and said a name out of his mouth, but the voice was so low that only Chen Kan could hear it.
After a while, Chen Kan's expression returned to normal and he said to Fang Xu, "Let's go. You have been gone for a while. Don't let Her Royal Highness worry."
