The urgent sound of the cavalry, like rain, suppressed the noise of the chaotic flow of people on the long street.
The hundreds of cavalry arrived almost in the blink of an eye. Along with the angry roar just now, the first person who appeared in people's sight was a strong middle-aged man with a majestic body and a beard riding a tall horse.
King Jingyang came to the scene on horseback, glanced around first, and then saw three bloody holes on his daughter's body at a glance.
The wound on Zhao Shiwu's body had stopped bleeding, but the horrific wound immediately filled King Jingyang's eyes with blood, and his chest heaved violently. Then he stared at Lu Qingping with fierce eyes like a hungry wolf, breathing heavily.
He shouted: "This is outrageous. Even if you are a descendant of Lu Qi, you dare to hurt my beloved daughter like this on my territory. If you can leave Jingyang County today, I will bear the same surname as your Lu family!"
He roared like thunder, and the fierce light in his eyes did not hide at all.
Lu Qingping's heart sank before he could speak.
At this time, the old master shook off his Taoist robe, stepped forward, and blocked the young man behind him. He did not take King Jingyang's anger seriously at all.
Not only that, Master Sun Ci's voice was even colder, and he almost didn't regard King Jingyang as a prince at all.
"King Jingyang, I want to ask you on behalf of King Wucheng what's going on here today!"
King Jingyang was so frightened and furious that he even dared to hit her with a rake. My daughter was injured like that. How dare you ask me to give you an explanation?
However, the old master looked at King Jingyang coldly and said what happened just now:
"There are two assassins hidden in your palace, and they almost succeeded in assassinating His Highness the Crown Prince. Doesn't it make sense that you, Prince Jingyang, need to give the Crown Prince an explanation for this matter?"
In this world, even though the dynasty is the most orthodox force on earth, and it is bound by the rules of the master, and it has the most powerful soldiers in the world, most people in the world of monasticism have to give away some face to the royal ministers.
But this also depends on the status gap between the two parties.
Just like Master Sun Ci, the great master of Zifu who passed through the Yellow Courtyard, passed through the Golden Gate, and reached the final stage is already the strongest group of people among the immortals on land.
The total number of great masters of this spirit in the world is less than that of princes, princes and ministers. Naturally, they have the qualifications and strength to stand up to King Jingyang, thus doing things such as underestimating princes and disrespecting princes.
King Jingyang came here after hearing the news.
He knew that his daughter was here to block Lu Qi's son, but he didn't take it seriously at first. Moreover, Lu Tingfeng was deposed by Lu Qingping. To be honest, the fat prince was still a little happy.
Unexpectedly, he was sitting in the house today, and someone came to report that the princess was injured.
He only had this one precious daughter, how could he still sit still? He immediately attracted all the guards to come here to support his daughter. Unexpectedly, when he arrived at the scene, he did see his daughter injured, but he did not
Thinking that Sun Ci could counterattack his entire army, what kind of assassin could he say?
Only then did King Jingyang notice one of his daughter's guards who was captured by the Lu family's soldiers and the old man surnamed Tang who was suppressed and lying on the ground.
These are indeed people from my own family...
There really is an assassin in my family. Could it be that my daughter did something stupid?
King Jingyang's heart skipped a beat.
"How is this going?!"
King Jingyang immediately shouted to the people accompanying Zhao Shiwu on the street, his face gloomy.
Although Zhao Shiwu was shocked by the events that happened one after another after being injured, she was even more aware of how serious it was for someone under her command to assassinate Lu Qingping.
Even if she ordered this, she cannot admit it here.
What's more, she never gave such an order.
"Dad, they are not our people, my guards are not that powerful, and that person is definitely not Uncle Tang! They have infiltrated into my imperial guards, and we have nothing to do with them!"
Zhao Shiwu hurriedly explained, but his face turned pale again because of the violent movements and injuries.
But she needs to clear up her relationship with these two assassins as soon as possible:
"They are definitely not Uncle Tang and Xiao Song. The real Uncle Tang and Xiao Song must not know when something goes wrong."
King Jingyang's expression changed, and he understood the general idea.
It seems that an assassin has been targeting Lu Qi's son for a long time, and his daughter has been blocking people on this street with great fanfare in the past three days. The assassins saw the opportunity and tried their best to sneak in, and then thought
When Shi Wu was dueling with that kid, he took the opportunity to get closer and assassinate him. Unexpectedly, the old Niubi arrived in time and stopped a conspiracy against Lu Qi's son.
Although this matter had nothing to do with his family, King Jingyang hadn't figured out how to speak for a while.
Because it really makes sense.
Seeing the appearance of the father and daughter of the royal family, Master Sun Ci said lightly: "You want to get rid of the relationship just because you are not yours? Oh, you don't know about the reception state banquet held by Emperor Jingyang and Shendu in Luoyang specially for His Royal Highness, right?
?However, in your fiefdom, the prince was assassinated by a hidden assassin under your daughter's command. This is no longer just an explanation for the Lu family, but how you should give an explanation to the Zhao family!"
King Jingyang changed color and his face became gloomy. Although he was angry with the old man for using the topic, he could not deny that the impact of this incident was indeed bad.
Especially recently, his brother in the capital seemed to be plotting with Lu Qi and the old bastard of the Korean businessman this great event that would last forever.
In the eyes of King Jingyang, the young hostage's state banquet in the capital was the work of his elder brother who was good at playing politics. He wanted to use the fame of the young hero's return to glory to push back their plan.
That door.
At this time, an assassin under his daughter appeared in his fiefdom to assassinate the hero.
What would his emperor brother think?
If you can't come up with an explanation.
Next, I am afraid that I will be put into the same camp as those people and be treated as an enemy by the Emperor.
The majestic middle-aged man took a deep breath and understood the seriousness of the politics behind the assassination. He turned to look at Lu Qingping, pondered for a long time, and then said: "My nephew, I understand the matter now.
Shi Wu is indeed to blame for this incident, and it happened in my fiefdom, so you can rest assured that I will definitely give you an explanation."
He looked at Lu Qingping and said solemnly: "Give me three days to find out the details of these assassins!"
Lu Qingping had a dull look on her face, looking at Xue Shengbai's injuries without saying anything.
Master Sun Ci glanced at Lu Qingping, then turned to look at King Jingyang and said, "Then it's up to the prince."
King Jingyang heard the words and said in a deep voice: "Looking at today's situation, if they can sneak into my palace, King Jingyang, there will definitely be more than just these two assassins. My nephew can wait here for three days. I will ensure your safety. By then, I will personally occupy the
The Assassin Alliance of Jingyang County is left to you."
Master Sun Ci immediately waved his hand and flatly refused: "No need, the Crown Prince has been assassinated. It is not safe whether he stays in this county or continues to be escorted to the capital by hundreds of people. Pindao plans to take His Highness the Crown Prince to the capital today."
When he reached the realm of the Great Master of Yuanshen, he traveled to Beihai and Mu Cangwu. From here he took Lu Qingping to the capital, which only took half a day.
When King Jingyang heard this, his face was filled with anger and he could not say anything more.
He even boldly thought just now that leaving Lu Qingping in his house might attract those unscrupulous people to come to the house again, and it would be easier for him to capture her.
Although he was 10,000% sure that he could protect Lu Qingping's safety, now the other party had no intention of staying here at all.
"We are going to the capital today, what will Grandpa Xue do?"
Lu Qingping herself was surprised by Sun Ci's decision.
Sun Cizhen said: "Fellow Daoist Xue asked several masters to escort him back to the Northern Palace. There are all kinds of capable people and strangers in the family. His injury is not a problem. The main concern is your safety, Your Highness. You must not waste time traveling now. Old Taoist
We must send you to the prince in the capital as soon as possible to ensure your absolute safety."
There is nothing better than staying by Lu Qi's side without worrying about being assassinated.
Although today besides King Wu Cheng, there is An Rushan and the newly promoted Ye Taibai who are both at the end of martial arts.
But if you ask who is the strongest martial arts master, there is no doubt that it is King Zhenguo Wucheng.
Not counting gods, immortals and other non-human beings.
Lu Qi is recognized as the highest peak in martial arts under the land gods!
On this point, when Sun Ci was saved by Lu Qi from an immortal who was now in the top ten on the mountain list, he no longer had the slightest doubt.
"Oh well."
Lu Qingping did not insist, then turned around and took a deep look at Xue Shengbai.
This old man accompanied him all the way, and he felt very cordial with his words and laughter. He had already regarded him as half of his relatives. But today, he was so seriously injured and fell into a coma because of him...
"General Cheng, you will separate a group of people to escort Daoyou Xue back to the north. The other group will come to the capital as originally planned. The old man will take the prince to go first."
After saying that, the old Taoist nodded to Lu Qingping, then waved his hand, and a burst of mysterious light came out, and he put the suppressed old man in black on the ground into a bag.
Then auspicious clouds rose from the ground, and a cloud light dragged Lu Qingping, and left here without any further delay.
Watching the young man in brocade clothes being led away on clouds by the old Taoist.
The people in Jingyang County and the people in the Jianghu area all widened their eyes. Although there are endless legends about immortals in the Jianghu, but today they actually see the immortals who can fly in the clouds and mist and lead people to heaven and leave. Everyone will feel that it is too worldly, and they will be amazed.
King Jingyang frowned at these people and secretly ordered: "Today's matter, please suppress it and don't spread it too far!"
He must not be in the temple when there is a storm, because a few assassins have brought him closer to this muddy water.
"On his way to Beijing, the young hero was assassinated by a hidden assassin in Prince Jingyang's palace, and his life was hanging by a thread..."
Such rumors must not appear at this time.
Fortunately, this is his fiefdom. It is not difficult to suppress this information. The next step is to give an explanation to Prince Lu's Mansion within three days.
…
Among the clouds, Lu Qingping frowned and said to herself:
"I hope that after three days, King Jingyang can give me an explanation and find out who is coming to assassinate me!"
Sun Cizhen said: "Whoever assassinated the prince can be known through torture. The last blow he used was the soul-stealing hand of the Killer Hall. It is a magical power that can steal people's souls away.
Human lives are still being damaged.”
"Killer Hall? Nie Family!" Lu Qingping read these words solemnly.
During the reincarnation incident, there was someone from this assassin family in his team.
"The Killer Hall is a secret rudder controlled by the Nie family. Few people in the world know where they are, just like no one knows where the Nie family is. In the Killer Hall, in addition to the assassins of the Nie family, there are also
There are many assassins from the Jianghu who accept some assassination missions from the Jianghu. The two assassins this time can be regarded as veteran assassins in the Killer Hall in terms of their cultivation and skills, but it is useless to know that they are assassins from the Nie Family Killer Hall.
The most important thing is to know who is behind them issuing the mission." The old man explained to His Highness.
Lu Qingping pondered intently, almost convinced in her heart that the assassination she suffered was closely related to what Lu Qi was about to do.
I was implicated in what they were going to do.
"The fact that they can afford to hire a veteran assassin with the highest level of magical power is because their intelligence was wrong. I didn't know that you, the real person, are also waiting for me in the city. Otherwise, if I knew you were here in advance, maybe I could also hire a real-level killer of the soul."
Come on, I'm afraid there aren't many companies with this kind of capital power. If we screen Lu Qi's enemies according to this standard, it won't be difficult to find who wants to kill me."
Lu Qingping was thinking about this in her heart. Suddenly, a light flashed in his hand in the clouds, and the piece of jade appeared. He looked at the old man:
"The real person was very shocked by this object just now. He must have recognized it. Can you tell me what this object actually means?"
What he took out was the Jade Gui that Sun Jingzhi asked him to give to Li Chunfeng in the Peach Grove of Lighting Mountain!
