At first, people didn't know what happened, but as two figures flew up, they attacked and defended each other. After fighting all the way to the Drum Tower, the people and guards on Chang'an Zhuque Street also secretly ambush The Earthly Branches secret guards also saw the scene over there.

Ordinary people can only see two people fighting, but these Earthly Branch secret guards and the Earthly Branch leaders can see it clearly.

One of them is Tianyi.

The man opposite him was tall and thin, but his moves were extremely powerful.

"Someone attacked Tianyi?"

Jiang Youan and others were shocked. He quickly ruled out the possibility of Tianyi directing and acting in this play, because Tianyi had never told him about it before.

The person fighting with Tianyi was Diqi.

Among all the people, only the leaders of the Earthly Branches could recognize Di Qi. Others may have heard of this name, but have never seen it.

But no one, including Jiang Youan, knew that Di Qi was so powerful.

Tianyi is already one of the best in the world, and the district can actually compare with Tianyi.

"Di Qi appears, this person is the one we must catch! He not only knows the affairs of Tianyi Palace, but also knows the affairs of the Imperial City Department. If Di Qi can be caught, it will be of great benefit to us."

"But I still have to protect the prince."

"In this case, Dog Shou, you stay here and make sure to protect the prince's safety. We will go over to help." Ma Shou said.

Then he and Chicken Head quickly headed to where the two were fighting, but something strange happened in the distance, and the prince also became alert.

No one knew if there was anyone else ambushing around.

Jiang You'an was now among the secret guards. Now he was a subordinate of the dog leader, and this identity was arranged for him by Lao Huang.

Among the twelve animal heads, dog heads, fox heads and ox heads are relatively close. Although each other's subordinates are still in charge of each other but do not know each other's identities, Lao Huang is good at spying on intelligence.

He had bribed one of the other party's subordinates with kindness and power earlier. If the other party cooperates, then after today, he can become the new dog leader. But if he does not cooperate, not only his deeds of killing good people and taking credit will be exposed. , even his family will be wiped out.

Lao Huang doesn't care about the Earthly Branches. The worse the Earthly Branches are, the better it is for him. It's not his own thing anyway, so there is no psychological burden in destroying it.

At this moment Jiang Youan suddenly shouted.

"There are assassins!"

Then he flew out and rushed towards the prince.

All the guards around the prince suddenly became nervous and alert, because they had not found any assassins at all, and now the most suspicious person was the person from the Earthly Branch.

But Jiang Youan naturally couldn't be unprepared, and then shouted: "The second person in the first column from west to east is an assassin. He wears a human skin mask, catch him quickly!"

Jiang Youan shouted as he ran towards the guard's team, but the guard was confused.

"I'm not, I'm not an assassin!"

He defended loudly, but at this time, the secret guard spoke. In comparison, they still believed the secret guard more.
Because the guards in their palace are rotated every one or two months. On the one hand, it is to prevent these guards from getting together for a long time, becoming a rope and waging war in the palace. On the other hand, they do not want them to be too slack. After all, what could happen to the prince?So they rotated around like this, and they were not very familiar with each other.

So they immediately pointed their weapons at the assassin.

After seeing this point, Dog Head, who was hiding in the dark, realized that something was not quite right.

Because the person Jiang Youan pointed out just now was his person, and that person was also arranged by him to join the ranks of ordinary guards.

In an instant, he seemed to understand a lot of things.

No wonder he felt like Niu Shou was a different person before. No wonder Niu Shou suddenly said that he had found several people from Tianyi Palace and found masks on them. Niu Shou also told him about this strategy.

But just when he was about to move, a dagger pierced his back, directly breaking his spine. In an instant, the toxins on it quickly began to invade every part of his body, and his body was now stiff. Unable to move.

Back to the scene, after Jiang Youan pointed out the other person, the guards killed that person instantly.

"He has a mask on his face!"

The others quickly turned his face away and found that there was indeed a strange face underneath.

At this moment, they also had no doubts about what Jiang Youan, the secret guard, said.

At this moment, Jiang Youan had arrived near them, and suddenly he pointed at another guard in the team and said.

"Kill him, he is also an assassin!"

Others followed suit and found that it was indeed the case.

"It's dangerous here. There are thieves in disguise and sneaking into the crowd. I'll take the prince and leave first!"

After passing the first two people, no one doubted Jiang Youan's identity anymore.

Everyone, including the prince, began to sit uneasily. Jiang Youan suddenly changed direction and flew to the prince's sedan chair.

The prince also stood up at this moment.

At this moment, Jiang Youan suddenly burst into flames.

At some point, he had the knife in his hand, raised his hand and slashed directly between the prince's neck.

Things happened so fast that they didn't react. When they did, the prince's head was already flying high.

Then he was caught by Jiang Youan.

At the same time, Jiang Youan directly pulled off the human skin mask of the secret guard on his face, revealing Zhang Tian's appearance.

"The prince is dead! The murderer, the Martial Arts Alliance leader, is Zhang Tian! This is the fate of opposing my Tianyigong!"

"It turns out to be Tianyigong!"

"What he did just now was actually to assassinate the prince. He is the assassin!"

"But how did the assassin infiltrate the secret guards?"

No one had time to think about these issues, because once the prince died, those who protected the prince had only one way to survive, and that was to catch the murderer and atone for their sins.

Otherwise, if the emperor blames them, none of them will survive.

But Jiang Youan had waited so long just to wait until his injuries were completely healed. At this moment, he had returned to his peak, and was even more diligent than before.

Naturally, it is impossible to let these people block the way.

Eighty percent of the most powerful guards on the field are now dead.

Because he saw the secret guards dispatched at the same time.

He quickly found the secret guard whom Lao Huang bribed, and when the other party approached him, Jiang Youan directly killed him with one blow.

Then he picked up the prince's head and started to fight outside. It didn't take long for him to break out of the tight encirclement. Then he saw an ox cart driving in front of him and got in. This was what he had arranged in advance.

Before they could react, they had to leave the city quickly.

It wasn't until after leaving the city that Jiang Youan came out of the haystack, then took out a wooden box and put his head in it.

Finally, he threw a certain amount of silver to the cowherd.

"This is the money we agreed on before. It's up to you if you want to live a good life with the money or if you want to report it to the official."

Jiang Youan didn't care at all what the other party would do next.

It wasn't until the cowherd carefully put away the silver and left in a hurry as if to guard against thieves that Jiang You'an smiled, pulled off the human skin mask on his face again, and then walked away with the box in a swagger.

At this time, Lao Huang, who had become Song Yi in the city, quickly arranged for people to search for the murderer. In addition, he himself went to the dog head to check that the dog head was dead, and then he got up and informed people to close all the city gates. , don’t let out a single fly.

He delayed for a while just to allow Jiang Youan to escape in time, so that he himself would not be suspected.Now, except for himself and Jiang Youan, all the insiders are dead.

In the following time, he can lurk in the capital and become the deepest nail in the Imperial City Division.

On the other side, the battle between Di Qi and Tian Yi will eventually determine the winner.

Both of them were trading injuries for injuries, and both wanted to kill each other as quickly as possible, but the people from Di Zhi were already rushing over, and Di Qi couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

In the end, he could only commit suicide on the spot.

Nothing was left but a body.

"What are you doing here? Do you know that this is a thief's plan to lure the tiger away from the mountain?" Tianyi said with great anger.

The horse head and chicken head were startled. They turned around and looked at Zhuque Street, where they saw that there was already chaos.

"The prince is probably dead at this moment."

Tianyi said calmly.

As for the horse head and chicken head, they didn't care about anything else after hearing this, and turned around and left. When they returned here, they saw the prince's headless body.

Looking at the dog's head again, it was already dead.

"Oops!"

……

They didn't expect things to develop to this point.

So he directly and roughly pulled in a surviving soldier to ask.

And this time.

Jiang Youan has arrived in a county town in Chang'an City.

I found an inn and walked in. I raised my hand to reject the waiter who came to serve me. I went straight to the second floor and entered one of the rooms.

"Master, you are finally here."

Yuruo, who had been waiting here for a long time, hurriedly came up to greet him.

During the whole incident, Yu Ruo survived. She was picked up by people from the Imperial City Division. Jiang Youan knew Yu Ruo's identity from the beginning, but he didn't clarify it, but later he also discovered that Yu Ruo was indeed more biased. On my own side.

The day Fu Qian died was also Jiang Youan's final test for Yu Ruo. If Yu Ruo passed, she could leave with him. If she didn't pass, Fu Qian's body would not only be carried out of Fu's mansion. .

In the end, Yuruo did pass the test, and Lao Huang secretly took her out of the Fu Mansion and out of Chang'an City. Yuruo had been living here for several days.

"How have you been staying here these past few days?"

But Yuruo did not answer this question, but looked at Jiang Youan with red eyes: "Master, I'm sorry for you. In fact, I have always been from Tianyi Palace. I introduced those people into the house that night, but I I really regretted it later, Youlan told me that there is a tunnel in the Fu Mansion that leads directly from the woodshed to your bedroom, but I didn't tell them."

Jiang Youan smiled.

"It doesn't matter, I already knew this, but do you know who I am now?"

"Jiang Youan."

"Then you still dare to follow me?"

"Dare, I like the master, not your identity. Yuruo said before that she was willing to block the knife for the master, but she did something like that. Now Yuruo owes you two lives."

Jiang Youan smiled: "Okay, then I will record your two lives in the account first."

Yuruo wiped her tears: "Master, are you still willing to take me with you?"

"Why don't you want to? You owe me two lives. If I don't take you with me, what will you give me back?"

"Thank you, sir. Then, sir, where should we go now?"

"Of course I have returned to the First Palace of Heaven, but since Fu Qian is dead, you don't need to call me master anymore. From now on, I will be Zhang Tian."

"Then I'll call you Master."

"Ah."

In this way, the two stayed in the inn for one night and left the county in disguise the next day.

……

"Tian'er, you are too reckless."

"Father, I just..."

"Okay, needless to say, although your move directly offended the imperial court, the struggle between Tianyi Palace and the imperial court is inevitable. You have no prestige in the martial arts world and you hastily became the leader of the alliance. But now you are in full view of the public. He killed the prince, which is a unique reputation, even my father had never achieved this level back then."

"Father, if the imperial court goes to war with us..."

"Then the imperial court provoked Wulin again and again. It's time for us to do our damn thing."

"Go ahead and prepare. In seven days, we will hold a martial arts meeting to unite the world!"

……

at the same time.

Chang'an Palace.

The emperor was furious when the prince died. This was the prince he had trained for more than 20 years.

"My minister is guilty!"

"I shouldn't have left my post without permission and went to support Tianyi."

"I hope your majesty will punish you, and I will never give up even if I die!"

The emperor was like an angry old dragon at this moment, looking with burning eyes at the horse and chicken heads kneeling in front of him.

"Do you know that this is my favorite son?"

"Do you know that the prince is a wise prince that I have spent more than 20 years cultivating?"

"Now that he is dead, how can you just punish him and end it?"

The horse's head and the chicken's head were prostrate on the ground, trembling, not daring to look up, let alone answer.

"I ask you one last time, who is the person who killed my prince?"

"It's Zhang Tian, ​​the current leader of the martial arts alliance. Everyone saw his face at that time, and later, the rat head autopsy confirmed that the weapon was Zhang Tian's usual knife, and the fighting method was also the Tianyigong's fighting method."

The emperor nodded.

"In that case, you two can go die."

Hearing this, the horse head and chicken head showed gratitude on their faces: "Thank you for your kindness, your majesty. In the future, I will follow you to the death, riding in front and behind the horse, in order to repay your majesty for your tolerance."

After listening to these words, the emperor pulled out an extremely sharp sword from the wall behind him, came to the two of them, raised the sword and started to slash at the two of them. At this time, he finally vented his inner resentment. The sword was struck again and again until the two men were beyond recognition, then they threw the sword aside and ordered the eunuch to come and clean it up.

After all the blood stains in the imperial study room were cleaned up, he waved the eunuch out.

Then he sat alone for a while before getting up and going to the bookshelf at the back. He turned the mechanism and bookshelf, and a secret passage appeared in the back. When he walked through the passage, a secret room appeared inside.

There is a torture rack in the secret room, and it is Tianyi Guan who is tied to it. (End of chapter)
