Xu Congyang sternly said: "The state has the state law, not to mention whether the Tao of Longevity is a heinous crime, even if it is really guilty, how can it be your turn to judge? This state law exists, no matter what the crime is, it has its own state law to punish. You hold knives and guns, Attacking the Taoist temple, is this rebellion?" Pointing to the inside of the Taoist temple, he asked sharply: "I ask you, is the fire in the Taoist temple related to you?"

Although he is old, his words are sonorous, loud, and angry, and the rioters are a little bit jealous. The leader has already said: "Whether there is any relationship, you, Mr. Xu, go and investigate. It's just that these longevity Taoist priests have been doing evil for many years. Your court Has it ever been controlled? It has been indulged and indulged, which has led to today's disaster. We ordinary people really can't stand it, so we have to stand up...!"

"Common people?" Xu Congyang laughed and said, "I don't see how you look like ordinary people. What the common people want is peace and nothing happens, but you lead people to do evil in the city. Are you ordinary people?" His eyes moved to the other party's On the weapons, "I ask you, where do you get your weapons? The imperial court has always enforced the sword hunting order, and the circulation of weapons is strictly prohibited in the capital, but you all have weapons in your hands...!" Without fear, he took two steps forward , sternly said: "Tell me, where did these weapons come from?"

He took two steps forward, and the rioters couldn't help but take two steps back, but they quickly settled down, took two steps forward again, raised their swords and said, "Since you want to do justice for the sky, you don't have to worry about weapons." He shouted loudly: " Listen everyone, the imperial court blindly shields these Taoist priests. It is their protection and connivance that makes the Taoist priests in the world so rampant. When the Tianmen Dao comes to attack, they will only end up being killed."

Xu Congyang said in a deep voice: "There are tens of thousands of officers and soldiers on the banks of the Qin River, and it is absolutely impossible for the Tianmen Dao to come over. At this moment, everyone must work together to tide over the difficulties... These rioters are making trouble in the capital, intending to take advantage of the fire to loot and cause riots in the capital. Everyone, don't be fooled by them." Looking at the rioters, he said sharply: "Listen up, put down your weapons now, and explain the source of the weapons, the imperial court may be able to spare you a way out, otherwise...!"

Before he finished speaking, he heard an exclamation from behind: "My lord, be careful...!" Xu Congyang was stunned, and when the strong wind suddenly picked up, he turned his head and saw an arrow coming. There was no time to dodge, the arrow had already shot under his right rib, and there was a sharp pain, all the guards had already flew forward, some were protecting Xu Congyang, and some rushed towards the crowd not far away.

Xu Congyang didn't notice it, but his guards had already seen it. This cold arrow was shot out from the crowd. The murderer was among the crowd. Several guards rushed forward to capture the murderer. A crowd of surrounding people watched Seeing the guard rushing towards him, he was shocked and turned pale. Amid the exclamation, they scattered and fled in all directions. Hundreds of people scattered, and the scene became extremely chaotic in an instant. The guard had already seen one of the crowd mingling with the crowd with a bow and arrow in his hand. Zhong left quickly, but the crowd was crowded, blocking the way, and it was impossible to catch up for a while.

When the group of rioters saw Xu Congyang hit by an arrow, they didn't hesitate. The man said, "Go up, everyone, these soldiers want to kill us, let's fight him...!" When Xu Congyang came here to kill, it was those rioters who smashed the door. When they heard the movement, they also yelled and drank. To stop him, someone even lifted Xu Congyang and shouted, "Help your lord into the car and get out of here...!"

The guards carried Xu Congyang into the carriage, turned the carriage around, and left in a hurry amidst the chaotic flow of people. The guards behind fought and retreated, and were entangled by those rioters for a while. Although these people were dressed in ordinary clothes, they looked like ordinary people. But when he moved the knife, there were quite a few swordsmen with excellent martial arts skills inside, and in a short while, several Wu Jingwei died tragically under the knife.

The carriage was in a hurry, and just passing through a street, a group of officers and soldiers of the Wujing Guards approached. Seeing that the carriage had already greeted them, they asked loudly, "Where are the bandits?"

The guard pointed back and said, "In front of the gate of Songyang Taoist Temple, hurry up and support them, there are hundreds of them...!"

Without saying a word, all the Wujing guards shouted: "Brothers, kill them." Rushing past the carriage, Xu Congyang only felt a sharp pain in his ribs in the carriage. After all, he was old, and the pain started Fortunately, the archer didn't know whether it was bad archery skills or he didn't want to take Xu Congyang's life. Although the arrow entered his ribs, he didn't hurt his vitals.

Enduring the pain, he opened the curtain and asked, "Where is this going?"

"My lord, let's go to the Tai Hospital." The guard said outside: "My lord was injured by an arrow, so I have to send it to the Tai Hospital for treatment...!"

"Nonsense." Xu Congyang said in a deep voice, "Go to the Prince's Mansion, hurry to the Prince's Mansion, I...I have important matters...!" Straight up, the guard said anxiously: "My lord, you...!"

Xu Congyang raised his hand and said with difficulty: "Go to the Prince's Mansion...!"

The carriage turned to the direction of the Prince's Mansion. Along the way, he heard commotion from time to time. Xu Congyang knew that his opponent's move this time was planned for a long time, and it caused commotion everywhere in the capital. There was a sharp pain in the ribs, but he held it back, his forehead was sweating like rain, and he was holding on in a daze. After an unknown amount of time, the carriage finally stopped, and the guard shouted: "It's Mr. Xu Congyang, I want to meet you!" See Your Highness Jian Guo, hurry up and find a doctor, Lord Xu is injured...!"

Hearing the commotion outside, Xu Congyang straightened up and opened the curtain of the car door. Someone had already come to help Xu Congyang get out of the carriage. Some of the guards of the Prince's Mansion had already gone to report to the Prince, and some dared to go in and call the imperial doctor. , although Liuli has been taking care of the diagnosis and treatment, but there have been two imperial physicians living in the Prince's Mansion.

The guards helped Xu Congyang into the Huating Hall where the prince was. The prince had already received the report and was waiting in front of the door. Seeing that Xu Congyang still had a feathered arrow stuck in his ribs, he said anxiously: "Master Xu, this is...the imperial doctor is here No?"

At this time, the two imperial physicians had already trotted all the way over anxiously, and when they heard the prince's question, they ran over and knelt down on the ground, "Your official is here."

"Hurry up and help Mr. Xu into the hall." Sitting on the wheelchair, the prince ordered: "You two, hurry up and heal many people...!"

Several people supported Xu Congyang to go in and sit down. The two imperial doctors immediately started to treat Xu Congyang's arrow wound. Foot restraint?"

The prince nodded and said: "The rebellious party is making trouble, mixing among the people, using the people in the city as a cover, killing people and setting fire everywhere, Wu Jingwei arrests the rebellious party everywhere, but they are the rebellious party with the knife, put down the knife, and hide among the people, it is difficult Xun Mi, now a foot-restriction order has been issued, and the people in the whole city are not allowed to walk on the streets, so that the chaotic party will show up as long as it makes a slight move." After a pause, he asked: "Master Xu, is it possible that this palace is doing this? What's wrong?"

"The old minister heard about this before, and he was really worried." Xu Congyang sighed, "I have four cities and one hundred squares in the capital of Luo'an. There are only a few places where the fire was set on fire. Most of the people in the city don't know what happened. Even if they know that there is a fire, I just thought it was an ordinary fire disaster. Once the foot ban is issued, the people in the entire capital will know that there has been an accident, and there will inevitably be a panic situation. When the Tianmen Dao hits Qinshui, the people in the capital are panicked and tense. Strings are like a pile of dry firewood, as long as there is a little spark, it is very likely to cause a catastrophe, causing the entire capital to completely lose control...!"

The prince was startled, thoughtful, and then said: "My lord Xu is right, but... if the foot restraint is not enforced, the rebellious party will appear in Beijing unscrupulously, and it will also cause great disaster."

"Now it seems that even if the foot ban is not issued, the matter is already very serious." Xu Congyang frowned and said: "The old minister came from Songyang Taoist Temple, and there is already a small group of rebellious parties there who are brazenly resisting the officers and soldiers, and they are all armed. There are weapons...!"

"My lord Xu, I am also going to discuss with you at this time." The prince looked solemn: "According to my report, so far, including the Songyang Taoist temple you just passed, there have been fires in seven Taoist temples, and There are rebellious parties, and they all have weapons... I am very surprised, where did the weapons in their hands come from?"

Two imperial physicians were carefully treating Xu Congyang's wounds. Xu Congyang endured the pain while receiving the treatment and said, "The old minister is also wondering. It is absolutely impossible to transport weapons into the city from outside the city. The weapons in their hands can only come from within the capital." I got it, and the capital has been enforcing the knife hunting order since the establishment of the country. Not to mention the people in the capital, even the dignitaries, the emperor's relatives, and the weapons collected in the mansion must be reported to the Ministry of War for registration. A serious crime. In order to implement the sword hunting order, the Holy Majesty even issued a reward order, as long as someone reports the possession of weapons and does not report them, he will be rewarded heavily. Therefore, in the eyes of the veteran, it is impossible for so many weapons to appear suddenly. It is a certain mansion Can be kept private."

The prince nodded and said: "Master Xu is absolutely right. There is no doubt that this incident cannot be planned by one or two people. There must be a force that I have ignored behind the palace. It is against the palace and wants to disturb the capital. We need to find out the source of the weapons first, then it is possible to follow the vines and defeat this force in one fell swoop... Mr. Xu, the weapons department came from outside the capital, and it is impossible for them to come from a certain mansion. In your opinion, these weapons Where is the most likely source?"

"Does Your Highness have a judgment?"

The prince nodded slightly, "If my guess is correct, I'm afraid there is a problem with the armory of the Ministry of War!"
