Chapter 514: Wan Geng asks for a monthly pass!

The sudden rain of arrows fell from the sky, beyond everyone's expectations.

Even King Yan’s martial arts are superb and quick to deal with, but he was

surrounded by assassins. In the face of this sudden arrow rain, the only thing

he could do was to get a knife and reach out and catch an assassin. Use the

assassin's body as a shield to block this wave of arrows.

However, even if King Yan responded immediately, he still couldn't completely

block the arrow rain from flying.

When the rain of arrows fell, King Yan didn't know how many arrows were hit on

his body. The only lucky thing was that none of the arrows in his body hit the

key.

"Protect the prince!"

The guards of King Yan's Mansion finally arrived, and Liannu aimed at the

roofs on both sides, and immediately suppressed the archers on the roof, so

that these archers lost the opportunity to cover King Yan with a second arrow

rain.

As for the first assassins who besieged King Yan, except for a few who rushed

into the shops on both sides, the rest were lying on the ground, either dead

or seriously injured and dying.

"This king wants to live!"

Although King Yan had a few arrows in his body, he was still full of energy at

the moment because he didn't hurt the vital points. And his vigorous spirit is

supported by his heart.

When the Imperial City Division and Yu Linwei's men arrived and saw the figure

of the town army Hou Yanmei, King Yan let out the breath in his heart.

At the moment when he fainted, King Yan felt the same as Emperor Yongping for

the first time, that no one was available.

All the whirlwind guards around Suihu were wiped out, leaving King Yan with no

confidant to use.

As for the guards of King Yan's Mansion, he, who has not been in the capital

all the year round, could not trust these people.

Therefore, even when the assassin had been defeated, King Yan still did not

dare to relax his mind easily. He did not dare to hand his life and death to

someone who could not be trusted so casually.

The Zhenjun Hou Yanmei is precisely one of the people that King Yan can trust.

Yan Mei rushed to see the scene, wishing he could faint too.

With so many assassins sneaking into the capital, the opponent even used the

eight-niu crossbow used by munitions to defend the city. This thing is a real

contraband, and the folks are not allowed to hold it.

After taking someone to ** the severely injured King Yan into the palace,

Yan Mei immediately led people to investigate the origin of Ba Niu Nu. As a

result, he received the news before starting a thorough investigation.

The captain who was in charge of the city defense and the whole team of guards

were killed in the camp.

The two Ba Niu crossbows came from here.

After receiving the news, Yan Mei still sent the most powerful hand to

investigate the clues, and he himself entered the palace again to plead guilty

to Emperor Yongping.

Letting so many assassins sneak into the capital, and even let the assassins

hijack the Ba Niu crossbow of the city's heavy defense weapon, this is

undoubtedly a major negligence of the Imperial City Division.

When Yan Mei saw Emperor Yongping again, Emperor Yongping was talking to Yan

Shu.

It was a bit funny that the brothers met under such circumstances.

Especially Yan Mei, who is the older brother, came to plead guilty.

"Zhen Junhou does not need to be like this, this matter has nothing to do with

you!"

Emperor Yongping waved his hand casually, "With mental arithmetic and

unintentional, no matter how savvy and capable the Imperial City Division is,

it is impossible to keep everything out of the city gate."

"Chen Xie Sheng is tolerant!"

Yan Mei respectfully saluted Emperor Yongping.

This means that Emperor Yongping didn't care.

If Emperor Yongping wants to be true, then Huangcheng Secretary will

definitely be held accountable, and Yan Mei, who is in charge of Huangcheng

Secretary, will certainly not escape the punishment of Emperor Yongping.

"Zhen Junhou thinks, where did these assassins come from?"

The reason why Yongping Emperor didn't tell Zhenjunhou to be true, in the

final analysis, was because the imperial physician had reported that King

Yan's injury was not serious. Although King Yan hit several arrows, none of

them hurt the vitals.

Although King Yan still needs to rest for a long time, as long as King Yan

recovers, he can still lead the army and rebuild the two battalions and

thirty-six guards for him.

After this assassination, Emperor Yongping can imagine that after King Yan

recovers, he will definitely speed up the rectification of 36 guards in the

north and south camps.

And with the strength of thirty-six guards in the north and south battalions,

the security of the capital, and even the security of Datang, will be

improved.

This assassination was not all bad for Emperor Yongping.

After many considerations, Emperor Yongping would open his mind to the Zhenjun

Hou Yan.

"Returning to the Saint, the minister checked the identities of the assassins

at the scene. Most of them were killers from the underworld, as well as

marksmen from the Northern Barbarian. But the archers that emerged in the end

were obviously third-party forces."

"These archers don't have any marks on their bodies, and the bows and arrows

they use don't have any marks. These people seem to have emerged out of thin

air!"

As the controller of the Imperial City Division, Zhen Junhou has a deep

understanding of the various forces in the capital. But this time, Yan Mei

discovered that there were too many forces outside of his control in this

capital.

The killer of the underworld sneaked in so generously, and the Imperial City

Division did not receive any news. This was a negligence of duty.

When the Ba Niu crossbow was robbed, the Imperial City Secretary realized that

he was still negligent.

The most dereliction of duty is that the origins of those two archers are

unsearchable.

"Then, who do you think these archers might belong to?"

"The minister doesn't know!"

Yan Mei answered honestly.

Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing.

Of course, he had guesses in his heart. However, there is no evidence for this

kind of speculation, so if you say it rashly, it is of no use except for

adding trouble to yourself.

Moreover, if he guessed wrong, he caused a big trouble for himself.

The Imperial City Division is responsible for the safety of the Imperial City.

Yan Mei's control over the Imperial City Department is not weak, but he

actually knows very well that many people in the Imperial City Department have

other masters.

For these people, unless the emperor made an order to clean up, Yan Mei could

only put it there.

In the huge capital, there are too many people he can't afford to provoke.

Of course, on the bright side, everyone is quite afraid of him, the Zhenjunhou

who is in charge of the Imperial City Division. But secretly, he is a joke in

many cases.

"Is there anyone who doubts?"

Emperor Yongping fixed his eyes to Zhenjunhou, he didn't think that Zhenjunhou

knew nothing. At least, in his opinion, Zhen Junhou must have a suspicious

target in his heart.

"Returning to the Holy Spirit, in this situation, many people are suspicious.

The reorganization of 36 guards in the north and south camps involves too many

people's interests."

"Chen, don't dare to guess!"

Zhen Junhou looked heavy.

Emperor Yongping lost his words in an instant.

But there was only a moment of silence, and Emperor Yongping stared at Zhen

Junhou with scorching eyes, and said, "You mean, someone doesn't want me to

rectify the north and south camps!"

"This is just a possibility!"

Zhen Junhou really has a big groove in his heart, does he mean that?

He just didn't want to make a suspicion target come out casually, just say so

casually. If Yongping emperor is allowed to continue, he is afraid that he

will offend the old military nobles at once.
