Datang Nongwang

Chapter 869: Night Chaos
Assassin, this is the first time Li Chongyuan met.

Moreover, Li Chongyuan had already expected that someone would attack him.

Li Chongyuan really did not expect that he had already been thrown into the prison of Dali Temple, and that someone would dare to assassinate him in such a place, which is really audacious.

Li Chongyuan, who was hiding behind the wooden board of the table, was nervous, but not too scared.

Why?

Because the short gun around his waist is still there, and it has not been confiscated.

People who have never seen a short gun would not care that Li Chongyuan brought a strangely shaped short stick in, and no one doubted that this strange short stick would be a murderous weapon.

Moreover.

This is the prison of Dali Temple, not an ordinary prison.

Officials above the fifth grade who were thrown into the prison of Dali Temple all enjoyed one day off per month.

Therefore, the officials who were thrown into the prison of Dali Temple were basically extraordinary figures, such as Li Chongyuan.

but.

At this time, Li Chongyuan felt the insecurity of Dali Temple.

Even in Dali Temple, someone pretended to be a jailer and assassinated him, which made Li Chongyuan's back even colder.

'Who will it be?Fang Xuanling's people?From the Cui family?Or from the Lu family?Or maybe someone from the Zheng family?It can't be Xu Jingzong's person, right? '

Li Chongyuan, who was hiding under the wooden board, drew out the short gun hanging from his waist while thinking.

Li Chongyuan doubted everyone.

And the most suspicious ones are none other than the people above.

Among the four great families, Li Chongyuan has offended him over and over again.

At the beginning, Li Chongyuan and Wang Ting almost got involved because of the purchase of soap.

In the end, it was Wang Ting who was defeated and asked himself to avoid enmity with the Wang family. In the end, he reached a cooperative relationship with Wang Ting, and even pulled Wang Ting into his sect.

And now.

It can be said that the Cui family, Lu family, and Zheng family have all been offended over and over again. Li Chongyuan is most suspicious at the moment, than the Fang family, the Cui family, and the Xu family.

after all.

Cui Tong of the Cui family was mutilated by Li Chongyuan, and even his family was arrested, including Cui Tong's wife Lu Yue.

And a few days ago in the court, Li Chongyuan even disabled Xu Jingzong. Li Chongyuan had reason to suspect that the Xu family sent people to Dali Temple to assassinate him because of Xu Jingzong.

As for the Fang family.

Li Chongyuan was also suspicious.

Fang Xuanling's son, Fang Yiyi, had his leg broken by himself. This is definitely not a petty enmity, it must be a mortal enmity.

and.

Li Chongyuan also knew that Fang Xuanling's wife was from the Lu family, and she shared the same room with Cui Tong's wife, Lu Yue, and they were cousins.

After thinking about it carefully, Li Chongyuan finally set his sights on these three companies.

And this moment.

The jailer outside the cell was surprised to see that he failed to kill Li Chongyuan with his crossbow.

The jailer saw Li Chongyuan hiding behind the wooden board of the wooden table, and it was absolutely impossible to shoot Li Chongyuan again, unless he opened the cell door and entered the cell to kill Li Chongyuan.

but.

The jailer didn't seem to have a key, and wanted to open the cell door, even the guards on duty and the jailer couldn't help it, because the key to the cell door where Li Chongyuan was imprisoned was in Li Zhao's hands.

Things can be delivered, but the door cannot be opened.

The jailer was a little impatient, but there was nothing else he could do at the moment.

On the other hand, Li Chongyuan at this moment, the more he thinks carefully, the more he feels that some things today are too strange.

'It seems that these people have long been prepared.During dinner, after Zheng Wu and the others ate, instead of scolding themselves a few words like before, they fell asleep strangely.And the guards and prison magistrates on duty were even more bizarre and silent. It seemed that they, like Zheng Wu and others, were drugged and fainted. '

'But what about the guards outside?Could it be that they were also drugged and fainted? '

While Li Chongyuan charged his gunpowder with gunpowder and added some iron beads into the barrel, he recalled all kinds of strange events this evening.

The meals that Zheng Wu and the others ate were basically provided by Dali Temple.

But Li Chongyuan's food was brought from home by Li Zhao.

Li Chongyuan is a life-saving person. He was afraid that someone would put medicine in the meal and be thrown into the prison of Dali Temple. Li Chongyuan sent a message to Li Zhao, asking him to bring food to him, or someone from his family to bring it to him. Come in and he eats.

Although it has been two days since I was thrown in.

In the past two days, I can't see anyone, this is Li Shimin's confession.

Apart from Li Zhao, Li Chongyuan didn't have any trustworthy people in the prison of Dali Temple.

Be more careful, this is Li Chongyuan's current situation.

Now, someone wants to assassinate him, which has to make Li Chongyuan think carefully. In the past two days, who has abnormal behavior, who is someone else, and who has a purpose.

"Who sent you here? Before I die, Li Chongyuan, please give me a good word!" Seeing that the short guns were equipped, Li Chongyuan hid behind the table and shouted to the jailer.

Li Chongyuan's shout did not get a response from the other party, so Li Chongyuan shot an arrow back.

However, the arrow hit the table and did not cause any harm to Li Chongyuan.

Seeing that the other party did not respond, Li Chongyuan said again: "You are a dead man, otherwise you would not break into the prison of Dali Temple to assassinate me. In the eyes of Li Chongyuan, a dead man is different from other ordinary people. It's the same. If you can't kill me today, you should be able to imagine your ending."

When Li Chongyuan was speaking, he sneaked a glance at the jailer outside the cell.

He was thin, with a full beard and a hard face, and he seemed to be forty years old.

In the past two days, among the jailers that Li Chongyuan saw, there was no impression of this person.

"I know that you came to kill me on the order of your master, but you can't get in if you want to. I'm hiding behind this table now. Even if you have ten thousand crossbow arrows, don't try to kill me. I believe , someone must know you in Chang'an City. Once I, Li Chongyuan, go out, I will be able to find out who you are and your family. Think about it, it doesn't matter if you die, but if your family Being implicated because of you is not worth the loss." Li Chongyuan had no choice but to use words to influence the other party.

As for whether the opponent is a dead man, Li Chongyuan doesn't know.

But as far as the current situation is concerned, Li Chongyuan can only use the offensive of language to break through the opponent.

Hit him with a short gun?
Pull it down.

His hand is always raised, as long as he shows his head, there will definitely be an extra crossbow arrow between his eyebrows.

Use it up, the other party can't get in anyway.

that's it.

The assassin who looked like a jailer outside kept raising his hand towards Li Chongyuan.

And Li Chongyuan hid under the table and kept using his three-inch tongue.

This consumption, is a quarter of an hour passed.

When Li Chongyuan was about to speak out, the assassins outside still responded silently, which made Li Chongyuan have to find a way to break the deadlock.

'Fire a gun?Attract people? '

Li Chongyuan really wanted to release a blunderbuss, and use the loud sound of the short bludgeon to attract people in.

but.

Li Chongyuan was also worried about those who were attracted by the voice, or the assassin among the soldiers and others.

At that time, the assassin might be killed, and even if he was not careful, he would have to get involved.

but.

Don't let it go, it really makes Li Chongyuan a little helpless to waste like this.

and.

Li Chongyuan believed that the assassin would definitely not take long, no more than two quarters of an hour at most.

Once he can't kill himself, he will choose to retreat. At that time, if he wants to find him among thousands of people, it will be as difficult as reaching the sky.

Li Chongyuan seemed to have lost his mind.

'It can't go on like this, this person must be left behind, even if there is a corpse, this person must be left behind. '

Li Chongyuan made a decision.

After making a decision, Li Chongyuan glanced at the assassin outside the cell through the gap of the table by the light of the oil lamp and said, "Now I'll give you a chance to tell your master. If the big news comes out, it will attract others, and you will die if you don't die. If you tell your master, I, Li Chongyuan, will save your life and protect your whole family."

silent.

Still silent.

Seeing that the assassin was indifferent, Li Chongyuan felt even more ruthless.

Immediately, Li Chongyuan bent his arms and sent the short gun towards the door of the cell.

'boom'.

With the burning of the gunpowder, the iron beads excited the iron beads in the gun barrel and sprayed directly towards the door of the cell.

When the short gun is fired at such a short distance, the movement can be described as surprisingly loud.

After the bang of the short gun, Li Chongyuan suddenly heard a 'pop' in his ears, followed by a muffled groan.

After hearing the sound, Li Chongyuan immediately looked at the door of the cell through the gap between the table boards.

"Haha, what did I say, you asked for it yourself." Through the cracks in the table, under the smoke, Li Chongyuan vaguely saw that the assassin had fallen to the ground, with a puddle of blood on his chest.

For the blunderbuss that Li Chongyuan fired just now, several iron balls hit the assassin.

What is a gun?

That was sprayed over a large area.

Fortunately, it is a short gun. If it is a long gun, it will be more powerful, and it can even break the wooden bars of the cell.

And this time.

Outside the prison, there were waves of footsteps.

In a short while, countless soldiers broke into the prison.

Li Chongyuan, who was hiding behind the table, looked through the gap again, and saw dozens of soldiers rushing into the prison.

"Where did the movement come from!" A school captain looked around with a weak oil lamp.

The soldiers responded, "Reporting to the captain, it's here, a jailer here is injured."

"Captain, they seem to have fallen asleep."

"Captain, the people here seem to be dead."

"Captain,"

It's getting messy.

more and more people.

Half an hour later, Wang Li led the forbidden army to the prison of Dali Temple. With the light of the torches, he looked at Li Chongyuan's cell and shouted, "Jun Wang Li, it's all right, you can come out."

Li Chongyuan had already seen Wang Li through the gap between the table boards.

For half an hour, Li Chongyuan didn't get up from behind the table no matter who called him or who called him.

And in this half hour.

Even the Shaoqing from Dali Temple came, and even more than a thousand soldiers from Marquis Wu came.

That Shaoqing called Li Chongyuan for a long time, but Li Chongyuan only replied, but never got up from behind the table, just in case there were assassins among these people, or people who wanted to assassinate him.

In short.

Li Chongyuan cherishes his life and is afraid of death.

Anyway, no one can open the cell door, only Li Zhao is here, maybe Li Chongyuan will show up and show his face.

but.

With Wang Li's arrival, Li Chongyuan got up slowly, "Director Wang, you are here. If you come again, my little life will really be gone."

Wang Li looked at everyone inside and outside the cell, "You all step back."

All the imperial guards withdrew, even the Shaoqing from Dali Temple also retreated.

Wang Li approached and asked: "Jun Wang Li, what exactly happened? I heard that Zeng Shaoqing reported that someone had fainted the jailer and others and wanted to assassinate you?"

"That's right. If I wasn't quick-witted, I'm afraid I would never be able to contribute to my Tang Dynasty again. Manager Wang, you have to talk to the Holy One. Although I, Li Chongyuan, committed a crime, it is not my turn." Let someone else kill me. Manager Wang, the Holy One sent you here, didn't he tell you to let me go? I don't want to die in the hands of these people, otherwise, my father who has been dead for many years will not be able to rest in peace Ah." Seeing that there was no one else but Wang Li behind, Li Chongyuan hurried to the edge of the wooden fence, pretending to be scared.

Li Chongyuan brought out his cheap father again.

However, Wang Li shook his head, "The Holy Majesty heard that someone was assassinating you, so he immediately sent me over to check on the situation, but he didn't tell me to let you go. But don't worry, King Li, everyone here People, I have already let the imperial guards supervise, and please don’t be afraid of Li Junwang.”

"What's wrong? Your Majesty is going to imprison me until I'm 80 years old? Forget it, forget it. Anyway, I, Li Chongyuan, will die. I'll love you to death." After Li Chongyuan heard that, he couldn't be more angry.

He was assassinated, but after Li Shimin heard about it, he still wanted to lock himself up in Dali Temple.

You can't do this for so long, right? My own life is at stake.

Wang Li was a little confused: "Prince Li, why don't I go back and ask for instructions?"

"Then the relationship is good, then there will be the boss of Lao Wang." Li Chongyuan can't wait.

Wang Li cupped his hands, "Don't worry, King Li, I'll let the imperial guards stay outside all the time, and there will be no more assassins."

After finishing speaking, Wang Li exited the prison, and a few moments later, dozens of imperial guards came in and stood guard outside Li Chongyuan's cell.

After Wang Li left, there was no news for an hour.

And in this hour, even Dali Siqing came once.

At the same time, even Li Zhao also came.

"Shande, all the ministers have entered the palace. It seems that because of your assassination, the Holy One hastily summoned the ministers to enter the palace to discuss matters. Don't worry, you can go out tomorrow if you want to." Li Zhao sat in Li Chongyuan's seat. On the opposite side, knowing that Li Chongyuan was in a hurry to go out, he comforted him aloud.

Li Chongyuan twisted his neck, and said with an indifferent look: "This situation still needs to be discussed. It seems that His Majesty is planning to imprison me for a few years. Anyway, it's all about this, so I don't care." Yes. But, cousin, I will leave my little life to you from now on, you have to check out the people in Dali Temple, I don’t want to come here again.”
