Chapter 54 Play a bitter meat trick

"Thank you, Prince!"

Liu Yanzhao breathed a sigh of relief and saluted Zhao Defang. The latter did not correct the 'Prince' in his mouth at this time. He continued to stare and wanted to see every move of Liu Yanzhao clearly.

"Liu Yanzhao, my father is Liu Jiye. I think the prince has also heard that now guards Daizhou City. It is really important to come to the county palace because of what I said. Please forgive me."

Liu Jiye, when the Zhao Defang brothers heard the name, looked at each other. At first, he heard that Liu Yanzhao came from Jinyang City. He didn't think about it. He thought he was a member of Liu Han's royal family. Now he was a little surprised to know that he was the son of Liu Jiye.

Liu Jiye is the mainstay of Liu Han. It was precisely because Liu Jiye's defense of Taiyuan City that he was not broken.

In the ninth year of Kaibao, it was only last autumn. Although it was because of the death of his father, Zhao Dezhao, as the prince at that time, still knew that the army had been frustrated in Daizhou.

"What the hell is going on? Hurry up!" Feeling that the matter was serious, Zhao Dezhao no longer pursued Liu Yanzhao's identity. He asked with a cold face and hurriedly.

"There was civil strife in Jinyang City, and Ma Feng, the left-handed servant, rose up to seize the throne. At this moment, I'm afraid Liu Jiyuan has been killed by his knife."

In a word, Zhao Dezhao's eyes suddenly widened a lot, and Zhao Defang was also full of incredible appearance, "Is this true?"

"The sentence is true, and there is absolutely nothing false."

The heart was hit violently. If it is really like this in Jinyang City, it is really the best time to go north to conquer dozens of cities.

My father's last wish is to capture Jinyang and unify the Central Plains. Therefore, even if Zhao Dezhao's character has been gradually cooled down, he can't help it. Fortunately, he still has the last trace of defense. Because he also knows a little bit about Liu Jiye's character, it is impossible to do the seller's pursuit of glory.

"Your father is the general of the town and the minister of the hook. Why did you come to tell me these things?"

"Because..."

Liu Yanzhao smiled bitterly, "Because Ma Feng's son died in Daizhou City, there is a complete egg under the nest? Moreover, after many years of war, the people of Li need a peaceful and prosperous life, and Ma Feng absolutely can't give this.

The reason is understandable. In the second half of the sentence, the people of Li people were directly ignored by Zhao Dezhao. The saint gave up their lives for righteousness, but when the real disaster is coming, who should not struggle?

The sword eyebrows were twisted into a ball. Zhao Dezhao suddenly turned around and wanted to go out, but Zhao Defang behind him pulled him, "Brother Wang, where are you going?"

"Defang, it is my father's last wish to take down the Liu Han court. At this moment, there is such a good opportunity in front of me. Of course, it is necessary to invite the officials to send troops north. If it is late, the Khitan people will definitely lose a good opportunity."

"Brother Wang, wait a minute. The matter of sending troops is heavy. If Brother Wang is met like this, even if the officials send troops and take down the city, you and my brothers will have a big disaster!"

Hearing this, Zhao Dezhao, who was about to leave, was excited and his face was pale. He cared too much about Liu Han, too much about fulfilling his father's failed wishes, but forgot his own situation.

Even if the officials send troops to seize the city, after they take over the court of Liu Han, they will definitely have a grudge. The last son of the former emperor and Liu Han surrendered to the minister. When the two come together, it is the disaster of killing.

Looking at the silent Zhao Dezhao, Liu Yanzhao also secretly cried in his heart. If he had a choice, he was unwilling to deal with Zhao Kuangyin's second son, but when he had arrived in this field, he could only sit in a boat for the time being.

"Your Majesty, I have a plan. Maybe I can take advantage of this problem."

"If you have any ideas, just let me know!" Zhao Defang's face turned a little red, and she could see the nervousness in her heart.

"It's not appropriate for the prince to come forward in this matter. If it can give me a chance to get close to the official family, or be introduced by the prince, it's necessary to think it's better."

Hearing this, Zhao Dezhao couldn't help laughing. Until now, he found that he had been used as a gun, but to be honest, as long as he could take down several cities in the north, he would rather be used as a gun, but he still asked, "Take you to the official family?" In case you plot to assassinate the official family, won't I jump into the Yellow River and wash it out?

"This prince is too worried. Even if Yan Zhao has the ability to be invincible, he can't hurt the emperor in front of many masters. He also asks the prince to help him."

His face was full of sincerity. Zhao Dezhao couldn't help sighing deeply. The people of the Liu Han court wanted to see the officials of the Song Dynasty. It was unrealistic for him to plot a stab. It is still unknown whether he can save his life in front of the emperor.

"Brother Wang, you see that my brother will leave Bianjing in a few days. How about inviting De Chong to the house tonight?"

"There is nothing he can do to call De Chong. He is only ten and two years old. He is just a child. Even if De Chong leads to the palace, you and I will be suspected."

"But what if De Chong was assassinated on the way back to the palace and Liu Yanzhao happened to save him?"

"Defang, are you crazy?"

Zhao Dezhao exclaimed, but then lowered his head and began to meditate. It took a long time before he said, "He is very kind, and he is loyal to the bottom of his heart. He will definitely ask the officials for rewards. At that time, he may be summoned by the emperor."

"Go back and prepare for the assassin. My brother and I can't help you."

"Thank you, my lord. I'll leave first."

Although this idea is very far-fetched, at least there is a chance to see Zhao Guangyi. It's just an assassination, and it's still a good arrangement, otherwise it is very likely to lose his life.

"Defang, do you really want to do this?"

Looking at Liu Yanzhao's departure, Zhao Dezhao understood what Brother Wang was worried about. The news of Liu Yanzhao's appearance in the royal palace will soon be leaked out. If he encounters the assassination of Dechong at night again, if he wants to completely leave the relationship with him and draw a line, no one will believe it.

But there are some things that have to be done, even if it is not for the salvation of the world as taught in the sages' book, but just the selfishness, for the selfishness of the deceased who has not had the past.

The star-twined jade plate, under the dark curtain, it is still prosperous.

At the gate of the prince's mansion, looking at the sedan chair that was slowly moving away, Zhao Dezhao and the two brothers couldn't help clenching their hands into fists. The comfortable evening wind in May also made them depressed.

On the roof of the royal street, Cui Ping was dressed in night clothes and dared not breathe with a short crossbow. On the most prominent street of the State of Song, he ambushed and stabbed. As soon as he heard the order, he almost fell to the ground without fear.

Their identity could not be exposed in the first place, but the instructor gave this assassination order. Didn't they think about the consequences?

There was no joke on Liu Yanzhao's face. It took Cui Ping and Qishan a long time to digest things. Knowing this is like entering a tiger's den, but as poisonous scorpions, the only thing they can do is to obey.

The Royal Street is surrounded by the residences of courtiers, so there are no pedestrians on the street, but there are soldiers patrolling at night from time to time.

He secretly glanced at Liu Yanzhao, who was not far away. On the contrary, Cui Ping, who had been ambushed, lost his previous horror and tension. Somehow, he was slightly excited.

No matter who the instructor wants to assassinate or whether he is really assassinated, he can raise his head high even if he goes back.

There was a cloth on his face, but Cui Ping subconsciously licked his lips with his tongue and continued to stare at the street. The instructor had ordered him to kill all the guards before the night patrol soldiers came, and left after releasing the arrows in the crossbow.

Finally, under the slightly anxious waiting, a gorgeous sedan chair was from far to near, and there were about 20 bodyguards around. Seeing the target appear, Cui Ping immediately held his breath.

On the opposite roof, the arrows broke through the air. Suddenly, several people fell to the ground, and there was a noise, "Protect the eldest prince!"

Just for a moment, the attack on the roof stopped. At this time, Cui Ping also counted silently in his heart. This was what the instructor ordered. After he finished the attack, he would take action after ten.

As soon as a 'ten' finished reading, he made a gesture with him in the fan-shaped horns. Cui Ping hurriedly responded. After that, the two people's bows and arrows shot at the guard below.

"Quick, escort..."

Before he finished speaking, he fell to the ground, and the scene suddenly became chaotic. Although these people have good skills, how can they compete with the crossbow?

Not to mention the ambush shooting at close range, so it wasn't long before there were only three or four people left.

At this moment, a white shadow flashed out and quickly rushed to the gorgeous teenager hiding on the edge of the sedan chair, "Your Majesty, come with me!"

"Who is so bold!"

The guard guard guarding Zhao Dechong's side immediately slashed at Liu Yanzhao with a knife, but after the knife flashed, it fell to the ground with a 'bang'.

Behind him, an arrow with dark light took his life.

"Your Majesty, come on, it's too late if you don't leave!"

Zhao Dechong's little face was pale, and he was obviously a little stunned. He looked around, and the guard he brought was dead. Just as he hesitated, an iron arrow rubbed the edge of his clothes and nailed it into the sedan chair.

"Be careful!"

In front of Liu Yanzhao's body, blood soared out. Zhao Dechong only felt that something was dripping on his face and wiped it with his hand. It turned out to be blood! Turning his head and looking, the stranger's face was full of pain, and there was one on his shoulder.

"Your Majesty, get out of here quickly!"

Gritting his teeth, Liu Yanzhao did not wait for Zhao Dechong to respond. He pulled him and ran to one side. After a few arrows wiped his robes and flew out, he finally arrived safely in a lane.

The whole assassination, just within dozens of breaths, when the guards and night patrol soldiers in the houses on both sides came, Cui Ping and Yanshan had already fled according to the road set by Liu Yanzhao in advance.

After taking off his night clothes and handling them properly with the two crossbows that have been used for the arrows, he sneaked into the lively night market. When he was sure that there was no pursuer behind him, Yushan grabbed Cui Ping and scolded in a low voice, "Cui Ping, why did you hurt the instructor!"

"Brother Cao, didn't you see it clearly just now? It was the instructor who jumped on himself, otherwise the arrow would not hurt him at all..."

In the latter words, Cui Ping did not say any more, but he knew it. He let go of the sleeves he was holding in his hand, and his eyebrows were full of puzzlement and doubt.

Is the instructor deliberately trying to get that arrow?
