As for the more than 30 killers who were killed later, they were not arranged by Su Shi. But their identities are actually not difficult to guess. They should be people who were bewitched by Jiang Tai's reward order and wanted to take advantage of the chaos.
.
Su Shi was thinking before that if all the killers left no one behind, someone would be suspicious. Now, with the appearance of these people, this loophole has been filled.
Even if other people have suspicions, they can't find any evidence.
On the street, the fighting continued, with no fewer than fifty bodies falling before and after them, and this number continued to expand.
As the number of casualties increased, the pungent smell of blood began to permeate the surrounding air. When it entered the carriage, Su Shi wrinkled his nose and showed a rather unhappy expression on his face.
Speaking of which, although Su Shi has seen dead people since he came here, this is the first time he has seen so many dead and injured people like today. When within sight, each and every lively person, within a short time,
Even with the scars all over his body and the blood on his face, when he fell to the ground and closed his eyes, it was still very irritating to him.
Humans seem to be very strong, but in fact they are very fragile.
Looking at the killers or guards who fell to the ground, Su Shi became more determined, that is, he wanted to become stronger, and he did not want to be one of those who fell to the ground.
Finally, after about forty minutes passed, the sound of messy footsteps of horse hooves came from the direction of the palace, and the palace guards finally heard the news and came.
"withdraw."
When they saw the Song Army finally appearing, the men in black immediately decided to retreat and began to cover each other and left the scene. The masked men also wanted to leave, but they
No chance.
Ning Dong and Chu Duo had already led people to block their escape route. Not only that, but a group of people rushed out from beside the carriage. The leader was Bai Feng, who was nicknamed the Green Blood Sword.
When the three men immediately came forward and surrounded the killers, it was destined that they would never have the possibility of escaping.
A large number of imperial guards finally arrived, and it was Li Zhang who rode at the front. There were commanders in front of the palace.
Wearing a phoenix-winged helmet, mountain armor, waistband and belly, horse belt armor, and holding a three-pointed two-edged sword in his hand, as soon as Li Zhang appeared, he was still far away and shouted loudly, "Tongzhi Lang, don't panic, Li Zhang
Zhang is here."
A full five hundred guards came from afar and quickly surrounded the entire battlefield. At this time, with the cooperation of Ning Dong, Chu Duo and others, the masked killers were either dead or captured, except for a limited number of people.
Except for a few people who escaped, nearly thirty people were left behind.
"General Li came just in time. The murderers are all here, so we will leave it to the general to deal with." Su Shi said with a grateful look on his face. From the beginning to the end, he never asked why the guards came so late.
"Tongzhilang is frightened. Leave this place to me. His Highness King Jing is still waiting for you to enter the palace." Li Zhang immediately clasped his fists at Su Shi and said with a big wave of his hand: "Go.
, and caught all the thieves."
The imperial guards came and Su Shi left. All his guards were also taken away, including thirty-six corpses.
"Lou Yang, please bring back all the injured brothers who died in the battle. Remember, everyone will be rewarded generously, as well as all the guards who are alive today." In the carriage, Su Shi threw down
After saying these words, the horse curtain was closed, and the little white pigeon immediately drove towards the palace under the protection of Ning Dong, Chu Duo, Bai Feng and others.
...
Imperial City, Zhaoren Palace.
When Su Shi, who was in a wheelchair, was pushed into the hospital by Zhang Xi, Thorny Zhao Xi and Princess Fukang Zhao Huirou hurriedly came forward to greet her.
"Brother Su, are you okay?" Zhao Huirou was the first to speak. At this time, her face was full of concern.
"Thank you Rou'er for your concern. I'm fine." Su Shi chuckled, then raised his hands and saluted, "Su Shi has met His Royal Highness King Jing and His Highness the Princess."
"Brother Su has just been frightened. Don't salute. By the way, I heard that there are many killers, right?" Zhao Huirou said while looking at Su Shi. After making sure that nothing happened, he seemed to relax.
One breath.
"Yes, there are dozens of killers in front and behind, and their martial arts skills are extremely high. If I hadn't gotten the news one step ahead and strengthened the strength of the guards, I'm afraid this time would have been a disaster. But even so, I still died.
Thirty-six guards were killed, and there were countless injured." Su Shi said with a sighing expression on his face, looking frightened.
King Zhao Xi of Jing was also shocked when he heard that thirty-six people had been killed in battle and countless wounded.
After all, he is just a child less than four years old. Although he is instilled with a lot of knowledge in school every day, all he has learned is the articles of saints. It seems that he has never been exposed to fighting on the battlefield, and now he hears such things
When there are many casualties, the little face becomes ugly.
"Your Highness King Jing, are you okay?" Su Shi asked with concern when he saw Zhao Xi's ugly face.
"It's okay, I was just...scared." Zhao Xi was honest and said without hiding anything.
"It doesn't matter, most of the murderers have been caught. I think whoever is behind the scenes will be found out soon. Long live my crime, for disturbing His Highness." Su Shi said as much as possible, showing an indifferent attitude.
"No! No! It's none of Brother Su's business. It's because I have too little experience and am a little brave. But don't worry, Brother Su, I will try my best to adapt." Zhao Xi said with a stubborn look. Obviously these schools
Time has made him realize what he will shoulder in the future.
Children under four years old will act coquettishly in the arms of their parents and elders in later generations, but now, Zhao Xi has to endure so much, which makes Su Shi feel a little pitiful.
But Su Shi would not have any mercy. Even the future prince of a country must have enough endurance. Otherwise, if the Song Dynasty is really handed over to him, the price he will have to pay to adapt will only be
Bigger.
"Brother Su, I'm not afraid. I just want to ask, how scary is the killer? Was the fight fierce? And isn't Brother Su afraid?" Zhao Xi asked curiously.
Every four or five-year-old child has a hundred thousand whys in his heart. At this time, they seem to be very curious about everything and eager to know any knowledge.
Su Shi believed that this was an opportunity for Zhao Xi to increase his knowledge. The king of a country cannot ignore the soldiers, otherwise he may become weak, and this is not a good thing for the Song Dynasty.
In order to influence Zhao Xi, Su Shi vividly talked about the assassination scene in the street. Under his wonderful words, both Zhao Xi and Zhao Huirou listened vividly.
, their expressions changed even more. Just when they were holding their breath unconsciously, they let out a long sigh of relief when they heard Su Shi said that General Li Zhang had arrived with his troops.
"Brother Su, I sent General Li Zhang out."
Su Shi originally wanted to hear what Zhao Xi would think, but suddenly heard this sentence and couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Su Shi's performance fell into Zhao Xi's eyes, making him immediately happy. After all, it was not easy to make Brother Su show such an unexpected expression. "Yes, I sent him out. Return everything."
Let's start from more than half an hour ago. Zhang Xi was waiting for Brother Su outside the palace. Then he saw a guard running into the palace in a hurry. He asked about it and found out about the assassination on the street...
"
Zhao Xi spoke, and Su Shi listened carefully. Only then did he realize that when the assassination incident came out, the imperial guards in the palace were ready to move, but then Zhao Yun, the great Zongzheng, was asked to act as an assassin with an unknown target. The palace also needed to take strict precautions.
You stopped him.
What does it mean to have an unknown target? They have already launched an attack on Su Shi. How can it still be called unknown?
Obviously, Zhao Yunrang found a random reason to prevent the imperial guards from rescuing Su Shi immediately.
After Zhang Xi learned the news, he ran back to Zhaoren Palace. Zhao Xi knew this and followed him to see his father. But at this time, his father was meeting Zhao Yunrang, and the lieutenant Zhang Mao said not to disturb him. Fortunately, his father was meeting Zhao Yunrang.
Fortunately, at this time, Li Zhang got the news and rushed to ask Zhao Zhen for an order. Then he saw Zhao Xi. With the idea of obeying power in a hurry, Zhao Xi issued the order as the prince of King Jing, and Li Zhang was born.
Leading troops out to rescue.
"Brother Su, have you offended Zhao Zongzheng?" Zhao Xi tilted his head and looked at Su Shi with a puzzled look on his face.
"I don't know." Su Shi shook his head, then smiled and said: "Perhaps Zhao Zongzheng was only thinking about the safety of the imperial city. Speaking of which, his consideration was not wrong. If the imperial guards sent assassins to the palace, assassins would be killed.
If you suddenly attack the palace, wouldn't it be a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
"Oh, that's it." Zhao Xi nodded as if he understood.
Su Shi smiled on his face, but in fact he knew very well in his heart that this was Zhao Yunrang reminding himself.
Speaking of which, the person in the world who least wants to see Zhao Xi doing well is Zhao Yunrang.
If there were no Zhao Xi, his son might inherit the throne in the future. And it was Su Shi who cured Zhao Xi's physical illness. It is impossible to say that there is no hatred at all. Think about it.
Such behavior is understandable.
When Su Shi, who was thinking about this, looked at Zhao Xi, he only had one thought in his mind, which was that he hoped that Zhao Xi would grow up quickly. Only when he grows up and has some real power can he have more self-protection.
Only with this strength can we stabilize the future of the Song Dynasty.
"Brother Su, I heard that you beat up a Honglu Shaoqing in Meixiangyuan yesterday. What happened?" Zhao Huirou, who was standing aside, saw that the two of them had finished talking about their business, and asked curiously, why is this?
Today Zhao Xi will announce the reason why Su Shi entered the palace.
"Haha, that man deserves to be beaten." As soon as he mentioned what happened yesterday, a smile appeared on Su Shi's face, and he told him everything that happened yesterday.
