Chapter 445 The cry from the defeated dog Hu Shilang!
There was not much resistance or setbacks in the capture of these dead soldiers and assassins. The reason was that the soldiers who took action were extremely ruthless. Those who rushed to the front with daggers were all chopped down on the spot one by one, almost.
Immediately went to Huangquan Road.
As for the remaining two assassins who desperately fired crossbows at Zhu Gaojie, after they missed three crossbows, they were directly pushed to the ground by the Jinyi guards who rushed towards them. They learned the lesson from the last time when all the Yunzhou assassins died.
, the Jin Yiwei were very decisive in their attack. Several people swarmed up and not only suppressed the assassins, but also directly pinched their mouths, tore off their clothes and stuffed them inside.
Then various thick hemp ropes came up and tied the two people tightly, forcing them to the ground unable to move.
The rest of the Jinyi guards and soldiers gathered around Zhu Gaojie, clenched their weapons, and looked around vigilantly. On the nearby streets, many Jinyi guards who were on duty also began to take action, and began to evacuate the surrounding people in an orderly manner.
As the crowds were being evacuated, the civil and military officials gradually came to their senses, with different expressions on their faces.
Those officials who had always stood firmly on the side of the East Palace began to get angry. Is this still the Ming Dynasty?
Someone actually dared to attack Zhu Gaojie, the Prince of the East Palace who was about to become the Lord of the Ming Dynasty, in broad daylight on the main road of the capital!
This is simply insane to the extreme!
Those ministers who held a neutral position and were vaguely estranged from Zhu Gaojie looked at the field expressionlessly. After the initial shock, they couldn't tell whether they were happy or sad, but they were all sure of it.
, that means there will definitely be violent shocks in the Ming Dynasty’s court next!
I don’t know what a terrible bloody storm it will cause...
As for some people who were originally opposed to Zhu Gaojie, at this time they wanted to curse.
If the assassination fails, then people like them will be in misery next...
Although not everyone participated in this assassination, the commotion this time was so huge and so blatant that it would inevitably affect everyone in this camp.
After the Jin Yiwei begins a strict investigation, how can they escape with their usual behavior?
Cui Shangshu, Hu Shilang, and three or four other people who were the culprits were already pale and sweating profusely. Cui Shangshu, especially, saw those few soldiers who had tried every means to intimidate and induce them to die.
Almost everyone was killed in an instant, and even one person was left alive. He almost fainted.
If the dead soldiers cannot survive the torture and reveal themselves, then they, no, the entire Cui family will be gone from now on and completely wiped out!
After Hu Shilang experienced the initial disappointment, he immediately gave up the fear and fear in his heart, changed his mind, and simply broke the jar.
He quietly glanced around and found that his colleagues were all shocked and panicked by the assassination incident just now, and no one noticed him, so he secretly reached into his arms and touched the knife that had been prepared.
A powerful crossbow.
"My surname is Zhu, either you die today or I die!"
When he thought of the younger members of his family being beheaded, exiled, deprived of their honors, private trade with the Mobei grasslands being completely cut off, and all of his trusted disciples being killed, an unknown evil fire suddenly surged in Hu Shilang's heart.
Come.
If it weren't for Zhu Gaojie's desperate efforts, the Hu family could have safely enjoyed this countless precious wealth, and he could have taken a further step forward in the position of minister of the Ministry of Rites, and even hoped to be promoted to the cabinet and become a real county magistrate.
Family!
Where can it be as miserable as it is now?
If Hu Shilang was just a little dissatisfied with Zhu Gaojie's various measures before, then after experiencing the heavy punishment of the Confucian scholars in his family, the cutting off of the smuggling trade, the murder of his trusted disciples, etc., he was already
He regards Zhu Gaojie as his number one enemy and must kill him quickly!
It has to be said that when Hu Shilang was dazzled by the hatred and anger in his heart, he did not completely lose his mind, but became more decisive.
Seeing that the onlookers on both sides were being dispersed, the Jin Yiwei and the army sergeants were guarding Zhu Gaoxu in the middle of the crowd, and when they were about to interrupt today's victory display, Hu Shilang immediately took a step forward, and saw the surprised looks of his colleagues around him.
Zhong shouted loudly:
"Is your Royal Highness okay?"
"Please allow the cabinet and ministers to meet with the prince to determine the safety of the country!"
This was a method he came up with suddenly. When the prince was assassinated, it was normal for his subordinates to want to check the situation. After all, who knows whether there is something wrong with you, Zhu Gaojie...
If something happens, wouldn't it mean that the court would be shaken and the whole country would be uneasy?
Zhu Gaojie was deep in thought among the crowd at this time. He suddenly heard these words not far away. He turned his head and looked at Hu Shilang. Even though he was dozens of meters away from the crowd, he almost couldn't help but burst into laughter.
.
what happened?
Are you sincere in wanting to see me? Your eyes are almost turning red!
And the murderous aura in you, Mr. Hu, is almost reaching the sky in Zhu Gaojie's opinion!
He sneered secretly in his heart, turned around and whispered a few words to Shen Qingyu, and ignored the sudden change of expressions of Yang Rong and Xia Yuanji beside him, and said loudly:
"I have nothing to do. If you are worried about Mr. Hu, you might as well come over and pay homage."
While he was speaking, Shen Qingyu had already made arrangements quickly.
When Minister Hu in the distance heard Zhu Gaojie's words, he was immediately overjoyed!
Sure enough, you do not know how to live or die, do you really think that you can sit back and relax with the guards protecting you?
Without saying a word, he faced the strange and doubtful looks of his colleagues around him, and even pushed away a few officials standing in front of him. Like a fool who had been completely fascinated, he strode towards Zhu Gaojie.
.
And just when he was about to reach the outskirts of the crowd and could almost clearly see the half-smiling look on Zhu Gaojie's face, as well as the extremely gloomy expressions of Yang Rong, Xia Yuanji and others beside him, Zhu Gaojie suddenly said something, and then blocked it.
The guards and soldiers in front of him stepped out of the way, pressed their hands directly on the hilt of the knife, and looked at him coldly with eyes that looked at a dead man.
But Hu Shilang suddenly didn't realize it. He ran forward a few steps very excitedly, then directly put his hand into his arms and started shouting loudly:
"Your Highness, I'm here to see you!"
When he just took out the crossbow arrow in his arms and tried to aim at Zhu Gaojie with trembling hands and fire it, the Jin Yiwei next to him had already rushed over. Two Xiuchun knives chopped down almost at the same time, directly cutting off both of his hands!
Blood suddenly spurted out!
And Hu Shilang also instantly felt the bone-crushing pain of having his hands cut off, and his face almost twisted in pain:
