Chapter 514 The Truth
It is a good thing to pray for the peace and prosperity of the two countries, and the emperor naturally has no reason not to allow it.

He looked at Xuan Yuan at the side, and asked, "How does the Taoist priest feel?"

Xuan Yuan leaned over and replied: "Back to the sage, the poor have calculated before, ten days later, it will be a good day."

The emperor laughed: "If that's the case, let's set it in ten days. All the things needed for the ritual will be arranged by the priest. At that time, I will be under the stage, and together with the two of you, we will be together for Dazhou and Xifan. The country prays."

"Yes." Xuan Yuan replied with downcast eyes.

Tuo Chi also clasped his palms together to express his gratitude: "Thank you, His Majesty Da Zhou."

Dazhou won all three competitions today, the emperor was in a good mood, smiled and said a few words to everyone, and then drove back to the palace first.

Taiqingguan is located on the Huaishan Mountains outside Yingdu City, with three main peaks, Yujing, Yuxu and Yuhua.In previous years, when there were big grand ceremonies, the emperor would also come to Taiqing Temple once or twice.

Therefore, he has walked the way down the mountain and back to the city many times.

From Taiqing Temple to the Yingdu Imperial Palace, one has to go down the mountain first, and then go through a long path before turning to the wide and long official road.

The original convoy also had to change its formation and become more slender.

It is now the end of spring and the beginning of summer, and the forests on both sides of the mountain road are growing just right and lush.

The mountain road is silent, except for the sound of cars and horses and the occasional chirping of birds in the mountains, there is no other sound.

The imperial guards guarding around the holy car looked at the surrounding scenery boredly.They have walked this road quite a few times. At the foot of Yuhua Peak, near the official road, there is no one who dares to make trouble.

At this moment, there was a sudden explosion, and then the horse neighed suddenly, and was about to run forward.

The expression of the attendant driving the car changed drastically, and he hastily pulled the reins tightly so that the out-of-control horse was temporarily restrained, and no major disaster was caused.

Gunpowder was buried somewhere under the feet, and there were explosions one after another, and the crowd suddenly panicked and clamored.

"There are assassins! Protect the saint!" Zhong Chi, the leader of the forbidden army, shouted, drew out the long sword at his waist, and looked around vigilantly.

"Swish, whoosh", there was a sound of piercing through the forest, and the forbidden army quickly raised their swords to block it, but many followers of the forbidden army who were unable to react in time fell to the ground.

Zhong Chi, the leader of the Forbidden Army, hurriedly brought escorts to the emperor's car: "Don't worry, saint."

He narrowed his eyes slightly, and saw a group of masked killers jumping out of the forest, heading straight for the emperor's car.

The mountain road was long and narrow, and the front and rear were disturbed by the sudden explosion of gunpowder. They couldn't get close to escort them for a while, and there were so many assassins on both sides.

Seeing that the assassin was about to break through the defense and touch the front of the emperor's car, Zhong Chi's eyes shrank suddenly, and he didn't have time to care about the sword that was swung at him, so he jumped with all his strength and cut the man under the sword .

He breathed a sigh of relief, only to find a sharp pain in his back. It turned out that he was inadvertently injured by the assassin behind him. Thanks to the guards around him who stopped him, he was spared the danger of his life.

Zhong Chi turned around, picked up the bloody sword, and shouted loudly: "Protect the holy car!"

This place is gradually far away from the Taiqing Temple, and there is still a distance from the official road. This group must have chosen this place deliberately to ambush.

However, he just released a loud arrow and assassinated the saint. If there is such a big movement, he can arrive at the Taiqing Temple very quickly.

Just protect the car right now.

After all, there were so many of them, even if the opponent had the advantage of the terrain, it was difficult for them to get close to the emperor's car for a while.

Seeing the assassins fall down one by one, and the people who came from Xuanqing Temple were about to arrive, the leader snorted coldly, and said loudly: "Mr. Hun, don't you think that the palace changed more than ten years ago and no one knows the truth. Know! If you are not in the right position, it will not last long!"

When he spoke, he deliberately used his inner breath, the words resounded on the mountain road in the forest, the sound was unusually loud, even the people who came to rescue him couldn't help but stop when they heard it.

While driving, the emperor's face trembled suddenly, and a cold light burst out of his eyes.

"Retreat!" The leader waved his hand, and the masked assassins retreated to the dense forests on both sides with lightning speed.

Seeing this, Zhong Chi immediately ordered part of the imperial guards to chase after him, while the other part followed him around the car to escort him.

The assassins dispersed, but the mountain road did not return to the previous calm. Zhong Chi stood beside the holy car, but the hand holding the sword couldn't help trembling.

Just now, did the assassin tell the truth about the palace change more than ten years ago?
out of place...

He couldn't help feeling cold, and quietly raised his eyelids to glance at the car, but there was no movement inside.

This assassination seems to be related to the past more than ten years ago. If it is not done well, it will be another bloody storm...

Yuan Bushi and Xuan Yuan, who came to rescue the driver, looked at the horrific situation around them, they looked at each other, and then walked to the driver and bowed to plead guilty: "Saint forgive me, I waited for the rescue to come too late."

"No problem." The valet lifted the curtain of the car, revealing the calm face of the emperor inside.

He scanned the surrounding scene, and glanced at Xiao Lingjiang, who was stalking behind Yuan Bushi, without any trace, and said softly, "Go back to the palace."

This time they met an assassin on the way back to the palace, Yuan Buxie and others naturally did not dare to be careless, they all followed the imperial army to escort the emperor back to the palace, and then left separately.

When the emperor entered the palace, he waved away the people around him. After a long time, he ordered in a deep voice: "Come on, go and call Chen Nie and Zhong Chi."

Today's assassination is not necessarily a coincidence.

The words of the leading assassin pierced his heart deeply.

It stands to reason that he has already dealt with what happened back then, and no one else in the world should know about it.

And what is the origin of this group of people today?Is it a descendant of the rebellious king, or...or even a follower of the late Prince Yiwen?
The origins of this group of assassins must be investigated clearly, and none of them must be left behind!
He narrowed his eyes slightly, the assassin's words must have been heard by those present today.They don't say it, but they may not be suspicious in their hearts.

The emperor snorted coldly, he did not intervene in what happened back then, and he was even more confident that he did not leave any evidence.Empty words are nothing, the assassin is just a traitor who wants to make trouble.

Not to mention how he ordered Chen Nie and Zhong Chi to do things here, Xiao Lingjiang returned to Yingdu but did not return to the residence immediately, but turned around and went to He's house.

He Xiangshan was not on duty today, he couldn't help being overjoyed when he heard that she was here, and quickly asked someone to invite her in.

"How? Today's competition, but Da Zhou won?"

Xiao Lingjiang nodded, but there was no joy on his face. Seeing that He Xiangshan was puzzled, he said in a deep voice what happened just now.

She could clearly hear what the assassin said today. Is there something hidden about the palace change more than ten years ago?

If so, what the assassin said really put her and the He family on the cusp of the storm again.
