Attack after the end of the Sui Dynasty

No matter how this rumor started, the current Li Feirong was put on fire.As soon as the incident happened, a message was sent out. Even anyone with eyes could see that this was an extremely low-handed frame-up, but the crown prince ignored it and clung to it.Li Shimin and Li Feirong also sent people to find out where the rumors came from.

The people who spread these rumors seemed to have disappeared suddenly, and there was no trace of them.The same is true for those few assassins, they are all outsiders, and it is unknown when and where they got into Chang'an.Lin Tong and the others searched all over the large and small guest houses in Chang'an City, but no one said they had seen these people, as if those people appeared out of thin air.

"These assassins have lived in the mansion of the chief messenger since the day they entered Chang'an." Lin Tong asserted that he hadn't closed his eyes for several days in order to find clues, and now he has turned around the city of Chang'an several times.I searched all the places that could be searched, but I didn't dare to do anything in some places, like the mansions of the princes and nobles, as well as the heroes and families who followed Li Yuan, these are not easy to offend.But according to Lin Tong's speculation, only they have the ability to be the main messenger.

------------

"Have you caught that traitor Zhou Cheng?" Li Yuanji's emotions at this moment were like boiling oil poured with water.For three days, nearly three days, whenever he thought that the main messenger who assassinated Prince Li Jiancheng was someone from his family, his back would feel a chill.Every night after falling asleep, he would wake up with a start, thinking that the incident had already been revealed, and his father sent someone to arrest him.

Li Yuanji is a faction loyal to the prince. Even if Li Yuanji did not join the prince Li Jiancheng, this guy would not dare to assassinate the prince with 1 courage, but who would have thought that the people in his house would have the courage to go assassinate.

The only thing that can make Li Yuanji feel at ease is that no one knows about it now, and the people Zhou Cheng assassinated the prince are not locals, they are all familiar faces.From the day they entered Chang'an, these people have been hiding and never showed their faces again.

Speaking of which, it was purely a coincidence that Li Yuanji knew about this matter. Zhou Cheng brought the man into the palace at that time because he bribed the concierge and said it was a few friends who came to look for him.The generals under Li Yuanji said that they lived in the palace, but in fact they were separated from Li Yuanji and his family, almost two mansions.The places where these generals live are all rough old men. It won’t be a big problem to let a few people in. There are not only one or two generals who bring their friends to live in. Those with high martial arts skills will be recommended to Li Yuanji by these generals. , the concierge didn't think too much.Unexpectedly, the porter offended someone, so someone reported to the steward that the porter secretly let people accept money.

It's not a big deal to let one or two people in, it's just that the assassination of the crown prince happened recently, and the manager attached great importance to the safety of the mansion, so he went to Zhou Cheng himself to inquire about it.In the end, he saw a murderous man in Zhou Cheng's house, and the steward immediately became vigilant.This person has a murderous look, and the pace of his actions can faintly tell that he has been trained. Such a person will hide in the palace secretly?It's so wrong.

He pulled the concierge over and questioned secretly, only to find out that Zhou Cheng brought five or six people in that day, and in the past few days, those people had disappeared, leaving only this one man.The steward was shocked, and ordered people to search Zhou Cheng's house secretly, and found several pairs of crossbow arrows with worn marks, which scared the steward out of his soul.

Although the military commander said that he would have self-defense weapons by his side, he was not allowed to bring out the military supply store without permission.Even if it is taken out, it must be registered in the register. The crossbow bolts in Zhou Cheng's hands are all worn out.This guy obviously didn't intend to do anything good with these things.The steward hurriedly reported the matter, Li Yuanji was quite clear about the process of Li Jiancheng's assassination.That day when the prince was traveling in low clothes, a few assassins were lying on the restaurant. When the prince passed by, they took a dozen crossbow bolts and shot them randomly, and the marks on those crossbow bolts were all worn off.

When Li Yuanji sent people to bring Zhou Cheng for questioning, he found that Zhou Cheng's place was empty.It turned out that when Zhou Cheng returned to the house, he found that there seemed to be a lot of people around the house, and some people seemed to be watching him faintly. As soon as the circle circles around, people disappear.Later, the servant found a few black footprints on the fence, and only then did he know that this person probably realized that something was wrong, and had slipped away in advance.Zhou Cheng's running was an indirect proof that he had a ghost in his heart.Li Yuanji ordered people to inquire about Zhou Cheng's daily life carefully, and finally confirmed that the one who assassinated the prince was his close subordinate Zhou Cheng, and he was afraid that he had also found out about the prince's whereabouts from himself.

This frightened Li Yuanji out of his wits. The first thought that flashed in his mind was that someone must have set me up for this matter, Zhou Cheng might be a spy sent by his brothers.Prince, no, he and the prince are already one body, Li Shimin and Li Feirong can only be the two of them.Li Yuanji's teeth itch with hatred when he thought of this.But the top priority now is to keep everyone in the know shut.

The concierge who let people in without permission, the servant who served Zhou Cheng, and the servant who reported were all silenced by Li Yuanji.Li Yuanji waited anxiously at home for his two brothers' successors, but after waiting for a long time, nothing happened.However, there are rumors in the market that the one who assassinated the prince was Zhao Wang Li Feirong's men.

Li Yuanji was puzzled, if it was Li Shimin and the others who framed him, then he should be the person in the comments in the market now, why did he become the fifth child, could it be that Li Feirong was being tricked by others?

Li Yuanji was clever once in a while. He thought, since Li Feirong was also planned, why not just pour all the dirty water on this younger brother.It was also because of his disturbance that the rumors in the market became more and more intense later, until the last rumor that Li Feirong ordered someone to assassinate seemed to be true.

"Boss, bring me eleven steamed cakes and pack ten of them." A man dressed as a porter fumbled for a long time out of the bag and took out a small handful of copper coins.The peddler took the money with a smile, took a bag of lotus leaves, and handed over the cake.The man was not in a hurry to leave, he asked the peddler for a bowl of water, squatted on the ground and started eating, and asked while eating, "The city seems to be in a mess recently."

The peddler saw that there were no customers at this meeting, so he turned around and chatted, "Search every day, ask every day, what kind of assassin are you looking for, I heard from the messenger that as long as you provide information, there will be a reward of 100 taels. However, I must have said it a long time ago, such a large sum of money, I will never worry about it for the rest of my life."

"With so much reward, no one will get it?" The man said with a hint of disbelief.

"There were a few bastards who went to pretend to claim it, and they were kicked out after checking it out."

The two talked one word at a time, and the man stuffed the last mouthful of steamed cakes into his mouth, patted the crumbs on his hands and body, turned and left.

Not long after, the man left the city, took the bag of steamed cakes, walked for a long time, stopped in front of a mountain forest, looked left and right for no one, and walked into the woods.

"Why didn't you come here until now? I'm starving to death." A bearded man snatched the steamed cake wrapped in lotus leaves from the porter's hand. "Why is there only this thing? Meat? Wine?"

"There's no meat, and the money is running out. The city is busy with investigations, so I don't dare to stay longer." The person who said this was none other than Wang Wen, who had escaped from Li Yuanji's residence.

The bearded man took a big bite of the steamed cake and said vaguely, "Then what shall we do next, just wait here?"

Wang Wen broke off a dry branch, "Of course not, I must personally kill that thief Li Jiancheng."

"The prince was shot by you with an arrow, and he will definitely be more careful when he travels in the future. Our brothers are all folded there, and now it is only you and me. If you want to assassinate the prince, you can only use the mantis and your arms as a chariot." The bearded man pulled out a sentence in a rare way.

"Fuck your fucking mantis arm, that prince killed our elder brother, and there are so many brothers. If I don't kill him, I will have no face to see elder brother and them. If you have no eggs, you should stay away, anyway Once your beard is cut, no one knows what you look like." Wang Wen said angrily.

The muscles on the face of the bearded man twitched, and the pancake in his hand had been squeezed into a thin ball, "Who are you saying has no eggs!"

Wang Wen snorted coldly and said, "Anyone who dares not to avenge Big Brother is an eggless birdman."

The face of the bearded man was already flushed, "You!"

Afterwards, without saying a word, the two silently ate four pancakes, and each went to sleep. When Wang Wen woke up the next day, he found that the bearded man had long since disappeared, and the other party's weaponry had also disappeared. Looking at the vacant land, he wanted to curse but didn't know what to say, so he could only angrily beat the land around him to vent his anger, "You eggless guy, the big brother took you for nothing."

Wang Wen cursed for a while, and finally looked in the direction of Chang'an City in a daze. Several of his enemies were there, but he had nothing to do, not even revenge.His elder brother surrendered to Tang, but because of a few insignificant incidents, the prince sent people to kill him.Li Jiancheng ordered the head to be hung for ten months, and it was windy and rainy, making it extremely dirty.

That is his sworn elder brother, who is better than his own brother. When he was young, he sneaked into the den of thieves. If his elder brother hadn't given him some food from his own teeth, how could he have survived to this day? A piece of land was handed over to the bastards of the Li family in exchange for safety, but they were killed by the other party.

After Wang Wen received the news that Li Shicai had been beheaded, he was stunned. His elder brother was gone just like that. Not even the body was left, and his head was hung for more than a month.Wang Wen spat out a mouthful of blood.After inquiring about the ins and outs of Li Shicai's beheading, Wang Wen hated the Li family to the core, and even ignored the original plan of how to frame Lin Tong and his son. He only wanted to avenge his elder brother and killed Li Jiancheng first.

Wang Wen can be regarded as Li Yuanji's close general, and Li Yuanji is very close to the prince. Through Li Yuanji, Wang Wen also guessed some of the prince's whereabouts. After several ambushes, he was finally caught by Wang Wen Chance.

He shot Li Jiancheng with an arrow, but also damaged several brothers on his side.When Wang Wen ran away, his heart moved, he took out Lin Nan's jade pendant from his bosom, and put it on a dead accomplice.At this time, he was still thinking about the Yinlin family father and son.
