White Tiger pulled the reins and said in a deep voice: "Why are you blocking the road?"
At this late night, there were not many places in the imperial capital that were still brightly lit, and the gambling house was one of them.
“Place your bet quickly!”
The gambling den was still bustling with people shouting and drinking loudly.
This is a serious nuisance late at night.
However, he is able to live peacefully in the imperial capital, and his background is so profound that it makes people think of him.
The burly man said drunkenly: "Who blocked your way?"
"Does this street belong to your home?"
The burly man not only refused to give way, but grabbed the horse's reins and said with a arrogant expression: "I won't give way, what can you do?"
The corners of Bai Hu's lips evoked an evil smile: "I have seen too many people like you. Leave quickly and spare your life. If you don't let me, I will die!"
"Hahaha"
The burly man sneered and suddenly punched the horse's head.
In the middle of his fist, there was a cold light shining, which was a short sword.
"Huh" read a book
Bai Hu snorted coldly, flicked his finger, and a silver light flashed across time and space. In an instant, it poured directly into the middle of the burly man's eyebrows, directly breaking through the obstruction of his skull, and a stream of blood burst out from the back of his head.
The big man's eyes widened, his fist loosened, and the short knife in his hand fell on the bluestone with a loud sound.
Then, the man also lay down in front of the carriage.
Blood dyed the streets red.
"Killed!"
The thug at the door of the gambling house screamed: "Here comes someone! Killing someone!"
Whoops.
A group of gambling thugs rushed out of the gambling house, holding clubs and swords in their hands, and surrounded the carriage with murderous intent.
at the same time.
On the roof ridges on both sides of the street, masked men in black, carrying strong bows, quietly appeared, picking up their bows and arrows, aiming at the carriage Xia Tian was riding in, preparing to launch an attack.
Suddenly, a change occurred.
One after another, the cold sword light broke through the void behind them, and each strong figure was like a ghost in the night, cutting their throats.
When the boys with hidden swords take action, it's the end!
They eliminated the threat silently and disappeared into the darkness, as if they had never appeared before.
Blood flowed down the tiles and quietly dripped along the eaves.
But the people in the gambling house didn't know that.
"Whoosh"
I saw a warrior fly out of the gambling house, holding a big sword, and said arrogantly: "You dare to kill people on the street, follow us to the Yamen immediately, otherwise, don't blame the brothers for being rude!"
Bai Hu said coldly: "Who are you?"
The swordsman's energy exploded, and the strength of a first-class warrior was fully revealed: "I am a hero!"
"Now, I want to capture you and take you to the Yamen to receive your merits!"
Bai Hu picked up his sword and jumped out of the carriage: "Why do you have to seek death?"
The swordsman looked disdainful: "Old guy, you are the one seeking death. Come on, brothers!"
"yes!"
All the thugs were filled with real energy, and they no longer hid their identities as warriors and started to take action.
suddenly.
A sudden roar broke through the darkness.
It was an incredibly fast sword light.
It was like lightning reflected in the eyes of every thug, lighting up the street.
"No"
The swordsman let out a horrified howl: "It's Zong"
Before he finished speaking, he found that he could no longer make a sound and all his strength was drained away.
Then he saw his headless body.
He opened his eyes in mid-air and watched as blood surged from the throats of his own people, and they fell to the ground one by one, twitching and losing their vitality.
Then, he fell into endless darkness.
His head fell to the ground.
at the same time.
In the gambling house, two people dressed as gamblers were horrified to death.
They looked up at the roof and made strange noises.
However, there was no response from the roof!
They looked at each other, picked up their swords, and slashed backwards.
The sword is as bright as black, and the skill is not shallow.
"Dangdang"
The two long swords of the young man with hidden swords broke through the darkness and blocked the two swords.
The two gamblers' hearts sank. With lightning speed, they took out two pills and stuffed them into their mouths.
Immediately afterwards.
"Dangdang"
The knives in their hands fell to the ground, they covered their throats with their hands, foamed at the mouth, and fell to the ground dead.
Zang Yi showed up and said coldly: "You will die soon!"
"Otherwise, I will let you try the methods of the Huangzhou Palace!"
"Search!"
"Don't let anyone go!"
"yes!"
The voice of the boy hiding the sword came from the darkness.
He hid and searched the bodies of two gamblers, but found nothing. The two gamblers did not have any tokens or items.
Zang Yi was very dissatisfied: "When the bandits robbed the Tao, they still had some gold and silver on them, so they were still on the Tao."
"It's better for you to pretend to be a gambler and you don't even have a gambling book on you!"
“It’s so unprofessional!”
Soon after, a room full of bodies was found in a room in the gambling house.
They were from gambling houses, they were naked, and their faces were very frightened before they died.
Needless to say, their clothes were worn by the group of gamblers and thugs outside.
After the investigation, Zang Yi and others disappeared.
At this time.
on the street.
White Tiger drove the carriage around the bloodstains and continued to move forward.
In the carriage, Zang Yi reported on the situation in the gambling house.
After Xia Tian listened, he pondered for a moment and asked: "Uncle Bai, which family does that swordsman belong to?"
Bai Hu shook his head: "I can't tell!"
"I'll kill slower next time!"
Xia Tian smiled faintly: "That's not necessary!"
"This assassination is half true and half false. If you can really kill me, then kill me!"
"If I can't kill him, my reputation will be ruined."
"After all, a man who went back to his wife's house to drink home wine went out privately in the middle of the night, and even went to a place like Tianji Tower where you can drink flower wine, which is enough to arouse people's unlimited imagination!"
"If you add to this the fact that I had a fight with people in the gambling house when I returned home, and even killed someone, if this matter is confirmed, I won't be able to get rid of it even if I jump into the Huangzhou River!"
Zang's eyes were filled with murderous intent: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, everything has been cleaned up inside and outside. No one can prove that Your Majesty has passed through the gambling house!"
Xia Tian smiled gently: "You can do things, I can rest assured!"
Zang Yi was a little confused: "Your Majesty, who is it that assassinated you this time?"
Xia Tian's eyes flashed with wisdom: "I'm not too sure yet!"
“Want to see again!”
Having said this, Xia Tian closed his eyes and said: "However, our whereabouts tonight have all fallen into the eyes of those who are interested!"
"This caring person is very interesting!"
At this time.
Emperor Xia has just returned to the palace.
Eunuch Wei received the report from the Imperial City Department and said solemnly: "The Ninth Prince was assassinated after leaving the Tianji Tower."
"The specific situation is not clear!"
"When the people from the Imperial City Division arrived, the gambling shop was already a river of blood and everyone was dead!"
"There were many archers dead on the roofs on both sides of the gambling house."
Emperor Xia's eyes narrowed: "Is there any mark on the bow?"
Eunuch Wei shook his head: "The killer left no clues, and there were no marks on the bow and arrows!"
Emperor Xia closed his eyes, pondered for a moment and said, "Who was responsible for such an assassination that was full of loopholes?"
"What is the purpose?"
Eunuch Wei said respectfully: "I will go check it out right away!"
Emperor Xia opened his eyes and said: "Find someone to send a message to the prince and several princes, saying that Xiaojiu was attacked tonight. I suspect they did it. Let's see their reaction!"
"yes!"
Eunuch Wei will arrange it immediately!
He knew very well that if the emperor tempted him like this, the entire imperial capital would be in chaos!
The imperial capital tomorrow will be very lively!
The situation in the imperial capital is getting weirder and weirder!
