Vol 2 Chapter 1845: Sober, act!

"...Fly...Flying Eagle, have Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan caught? Hurry! Interrogate them as soon as possible! So as not to have more dreams at night!"
In Taiyuan City, in the post hall, Duguxin who had just regained consciousness only felt that he couldn't lift his strength all over, and he was too thirsty. After drinking three cups of water from Dugu Feiying, Duguxin felt somewhat better. Some, and his physical strength recovered by two points, so he pulled Dugu Flying Eagle by the arm and said intermittently.
At the first time when he woke up, Duguxin thought that it was not his injury, but the man behind the scenes!
Obviously, this assassination gave him a strong sense of urgency. Now that the forces hidden in the dark dared to jump out and directly assassinate him, it shows that the opponent's layout in Taiyuan City has basically been completed. The target is probably Li Tai and the teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy!
Therefore, he must be found out before the opponent's next action, otherwise Li Tai will be in danger!
"Brother, Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan were indeed caught, but Kang Changan was killed on the way back from the escort!"
Dugu Xin was intercepted before arriving at Shuoren Fang, so he didn't know that the king's guard was attacked and killed on the return journey, so Dugu Feiying quickly explained.
"Wh...what? Kang Changan was killed? Ahem..."
When Duguxin heard it, he almost jumped out of the bed (if his physical condition allowed it), perhaps because he was too agitated, which made him feel a little unstable and started to cough.
Dugu Feiying hurried forward, patted Duguxin’s back, and said anxiously: "Brother, don’t get excited. Although Kang Changan has been killed, we still have Zhu Xiesheng in our hands. From his mouth, we can certainly Ask something!"
Wang Yu stood aside and couldn't help but speak: "The leader of Dugu doesn't know anything. On the way back from escorting Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan, my guardian was attacked by three masters in black. And at that time, Wang Chengwu, the head of the Wang family's guard, happened to go to Wenchang Fang in the south of the city, so they let them kill Kang Changan!
After all, this matter was the fault of my Wang family. Next, the Wang family will take good care of Zhu Xiesheng and will never let this person have another accident. General Feiying just said that it was right. At the moment, the leader of Dugu is still at ease to heal his wounds. Then Zhu Xiecheng has the Wang family to take care of him. "
Duguxin lying on the couch, his heart moved slightly when he heard the words, and he waved his hand to Wang Yu laboriously, "The king's master is serious! The fault is not in the Wang's family. Besides, I was attacked in Nanxiang before, so I assisted him at the critical moment. It should be the leader of the royal guard, right? How can Duguxin dare to blame it lightly without thanking him for his life-saving grace?"
Wang Yu’s words revealed a very important message, that is, when the Wang family was escorting Zhu Xiesheng and Kang Changan back, and they were attacked, Wang Chengwu was not on the scene, but went to Wenchangfang in the south of the city. By coincidence, The location where Duguxin was attacked is just outside Wenchangfang!
Under the combination of the two, it is not difficult to speculate that the peerless swordsman who suddenly descended from the sky was Wang Chengwu, the guard leader of the royal family, at the critical moment of Duguxin's life and death!
Although Kang Changan was assassinated under the heavy guard of the Wang family, Duguxin was a little dissatisfied, but the life-saving grace was before him. If Wang Chengwu had not rescued him, how could the three black-clothed masters who intercepted Kang Changan succeed? ?
The cause and effect inside, Duguxin can still be clear!
"The leader of Dugu guessed right. It was Wang Chengwu, the guard leader of the Wang family who went to Wenchangfang to rescue you! The Wang family has lived in Taiyuan for generations. Although it is not the same as the official government, it is not allowed to be wild at the door of the house! It is the royal family's righteousness to rescue the leader of Dugu, and the leader of Dugu is welcome~!"
Facing Duguxin’s thanks, Wang Yu said righteously.
As soon as this statement came out, Wang Liaoyuan, who was standing by, suddenly felt a little bit of self-confidence, saying that maintaining the public order of Taiyuan City should have been what the prefectural government office or county government should do. Duguxin was assassinated in the city, and it was not a member of the government to rescue him. , But the chief guard of the royal family, which made the government very shameless!
But fortunately, Feng Catou from the Yamen of the prefectural government led people to the scene at the last juncture. It was more or less a force. Otherwise, Wang Liaoyuan's face must be even more ugly at this moment!
"Whether it is the righteousness to the Wang family or the order to act, but to my Lonely Belief, it is a life-saving grace! How can this life-saving grace be counted? When I get better, I will come personally. Thank you brother Chengwu!"
Duguxin shook his head and insisted.
Without waiting for Wang Yu to say anything, he turned his head and said in a deep voice, "But the immediate task is urgent, and Zhu Xiesheng needs to be tried as soon as possible! The assassins appearing in the city today are the most powerful master-level masters. I am afraid their origins It's not easy. We have to find out their identities and hiding places as soon as possible, otherwise they will always be passive!"
Standing on the side, Li Tai, who hadn't spoken for a long time, said at this time: "General Dugu, please feel at ease and heal your wounds. Just leave it to us to track down the assassin!"
"but……"
Dugu Xin wanted to say something, but Li Tai directly interrupted him very strongly: "No, but this is the king's order! Dr. Gongsun also said earlier that in recent days, General Dugu still has to take more rest, and cannot Use force! This king is still waiting for General Dugu to recover as soon as possible, so that he can lead the Forbidden Army and protect this King! Please do not let the King down! The Forbidden Army will be led by General Flying Eagle during this time!"
It is rare for Li Tai to be strong. His decisive remarks gave Dugu Xin no room for refutation. After all, Li Tai turned to look at Wang Yu, Wang Liaoyuan and others, and said with a serious face: "General Dugu If you want to heal your wounds, I won’t bother him! In addition, the emperor father just passed a decree via the telegraph machine. Please go out with this king to receive the edict~!"
When I heard that Li Er had sent the imperial decree, everyone in the room couldn't help but look at him. Wang Yu felt like Mingjing. After all, Li Tai suddenly went out because the telegraph machine rang. It must be a telegram from the palace, and When Li Tai responded to the telegram, he must have reported to Li Er what happened today in Taiyuan City by the way, so this imperial edict of Li Er must be related to the assassination of Duguxin!
"No~!"
Everyone in the room, except for Duguxin who was lying on the couch, agreed, and then followed Li Tai out.
After a while, everyone came to a side hall. Li Tai stood in front of the crowd and took out a note from his arms. He faced the crowd and said aloud:
"The emperor has ordered the provincial governor Wang Liaoyuan to pursue the assassination of Duguxin. The murderer must be caught within seven days, otherwise he will be punished severely; For the time being, he has the right to directly dispatch troops and horses to assist Wang Liaoyuan to maintain public order in Taiyuan, and to protect the safety of the king and the teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy!"
The content of the imperial edict is very short, so short that it doesn't look like a imperial edict at all, there is no greetings, and there is no obscure or incomprehensible thing. This is more like Li Er giving orders in front of everyone!
Although this is just a telegram form of the imperial decree, no one can tell the truth from the false. It is exactly what Li Tai said, but none of the people present questioned the authenticity of the imperial edict because the person who declared the decree was Li Tai. He is Li Er's favorite son. It is impossible for Li Tai to lie about this matter, because lying about this kind of matter is easy to expose, and once it is exposed, the political career is basically over!
What's more, there is no need for Li Tai to lie about this matter. For him, lying is no good!
"Chen, Wang Liaoyuan follows the edict!"
Listening to the meaning of the second imperial edict of Li, he did not directly remove him from his post, but asked him to make up for it. Wang Liaoyuan couldn't help but give a sigh of relief, but the seven-day period made him feel tight, and secretly said that for the next seven days, he I'm afraid I can't sleep without rest!
Li Tai nodded and said, "Although this imperial decree came from a telegraph machine, you don’t have to doubt its authenticity. The imperial decree stamped with the seal has already been sent here with the help of Wang’s carrier pigeons in Beijing. I’m here, and it’s estimated that I can arrive at noon. Then, please pay attention to my uncle and grandpa~!"
The cultivation of carrier pigeons cannot be completed overnight, and it is impossible for the imperial court to train a batch of carrier pigeons to cover all states and counties of Datang. Not only the imperial court cannot, even the thousand-year-old family like the Wang family cannot do it. At present, the Wang family has only cultivated some. Carrier pigeons, used by the children of the race in various places, send letters to the ancestral house in Taiyuan!
Wang Yu nodded and said, "Your Highness, don’t worry, as soon as the Wang family receives the imperial decree, it will be delivered right away! In addition, Wang Cishi needs any help when tracking down the assassin, but even if you speak to the old man, my Wang family is involved in this matter. Come on, we must do our best to help!"
"Thank you~!"
Wang Liaoyuan arched his hand to Wang Yu, thanking him.
He is a distant child of the Wang family, so he didn't get much help from the Wang family in his official career, especially after becoming the governor of a state, in order to avoid suspicion, he took the initiative to reduce contact with the Wang family. But in this matter, Wang Yu was willing to spare no effort to help him, which made him very moved!
Li Tai said loudly at this time: "Okay! In that case, this king hopes that you can work together to catch the assassins lurking in the city as soon as possible! The first thing is to interrogate Zhu Xiesheng to see if you can get from him. Ask something."
Wang Liaoyuan arched his hands and said: "The officer will follow the order! The officer will send someone to the Wang's house and take Zhu Xiesheng into the palace prison. He will be arraigned immediately and be guarded by heavy soldiers. He will never have any more accidents~!"
Li Tai shook his head, and said, "Heavy guards are not necessary. This king thinks that we still don't have too much hope for Zhu Xiesheng! The reason why those assassins only killed Kang Changan, but let Zhu Xiesheng let go. They are not afraid that Zhu Xiesheng will fall into our hands. In other words, Zhu Xiesheng may not have the news we want at all!
Therefore, for this person, a simple interrogation is enough, at least he should know the identity of Kang Changan! Let's not waste too much time and energy on this person~! "
Calm and wise!
When everyone clamored to interrogate Zhu Xiesheng and wanted to get relevant information about the assassin from the latter, Li Tai remained absolutely calm. It has to be said that Li Tai is much more calm than before. Up!
Everyone present was not stupid. Hearing what Li Tai said, they all responded.
Indeed, according to the description of the king’s secret guards, after killing Kang Chang’an, the three black-clothed masters had all their energy to kill Zhu Xiesheng next to them, but why didn’t they do that? The only possibility is that Zhu Xiesheng is just an abandoned son they introduced, an abandoned son with no effect, an abandoned son who knows nothing about their identity information!
"His Royal Highness is talking about it! The next official is ashamed and almost caught the opponent's trap!"
Wang Liaoyuan arched his hands with shame.
After a pause, he said again: "After the officer transfers Zhu Xiesheng to the palace prison, he will personally go to the Bingzhou camp to convey the saint’s will to Fang Cengjun, and then let Fang Cengjun immediately mobilize soldiers and horses to protect His Royal Highness. Wait for someone to be safe and track down the assassin in the city!"
Although Li Tai has not yet affixed the seal of appointment and military transfer imperial decree, Li Tai also said just now that the imperial decree will soon be "airlifted" to the city of Taiyuan. This is because Wang Liaoyuan, Wang Yu and others do not believe it, Fang Gongteng I must not dare to believe it, because this kind of thing has been learned! When Li Zexuan transferred troops from Taiyuan to block Wu Jie~EbookFREE.me~ also used this method to transfer troops!
Therefore, in Wang Liaoyuan's view, with this sacred decree in the form of a telegram, Fang Gongteng can fully assemble his troops in advance!
"Okay! Act immediately over there!"
This time, Li Tai did not say anything to refuse Wang Liaoyuan's request for the state's soldiers and horses to protect the safety of the people in the college, because he has already felt the seriousness of the situation.
"The next official retire~!"
Wang Liaoyuan and Wang Yu quit one after another.
In the film room, there were only Li Tai, Tiedan and Dugu Feiying left!
Li Tai turned to look at the iron egg at this time and said, "Iron egg, you are good at doing it. Take a trip to Longshan for me. These people in black are so arrogant and fierce. I am worried that they will be disadvantaged by Mr. Mo Chui. You immediately lead A group of forbidden troops, head to Longshan Tongzi Temple!"
Tie Dan hesitated for a moment, and actually shook his head, and said, "No! I have to protect your safety personally. This is the task the Master has entrusted to me!"
The reason why Li Zexuan allowed Tie Dan to follow the academy’s team northward was not to allow Tie Dan to exert much effort in building a telegraph relay station, but because among the students in the academy, Tie Dan’s martial arts was considered top-notch, and he He has a good relationship with Li Tai, and it is most suitable for him to protect Li Tai's safety every step of the way!
Li Tai couldn't help being speechless when he heard this.
Dugu Feiying now clasped his fists and said: "It's better for the end general to take someone to Longshan! Brother Iron Egg should stay with His Royal Highness!"
Although Dugu Feiying wanted to stay and look after Duguxin at this moment, he did not forget the mission on his shoulders!
"Good! Then there will be General Lao Feiying!"
