Chapter 429 Where did the robber come from
The man in brown stretched out his hand and wiped it into his arms, and a sharp look flashed across his face. In the blink of an eye, a five-inch-long dagger was added to his hand, and he rushed towards Ying Zheng.
The madam, who was just smiling, immediately put away her smile and grabbed Ying Zheng's sleeve tightly.
Such a scene instantly evokes the unpleasant memories of Jing Ke's assassination.
Meng Tian quickly reacted and kicked the man in the belly.
"Bang"
With a muffled sound, the man flew backward and slammed heavily on the wall.
Ying Zheng's reaction was not slow either. He swung hard and pushed away the madam who was covering her.
At the same time, a group of people rushed up at Nu Lu’s gate, holding bronze daggers.
Meng Tian protected Ying Zheng and retreated.
The four guards reacted and quickly stepped forward, divided into four directions: east, west, south, north, and surrounded Ying Zheng in the middle.
These assassins obviously received strict training, and did not yell for no reason throughout the whole process, patted the tight formation, and launched an attack on Meng Tian and others.
"The emperor dares to commit crimes and rebellion at his feet. He is such a bold and crazy man!"
Meng Tian pulled out the short sword from his waist to block the sword light that was slashing. Meng Tian's martial arts reached a state of transformation day by day, and in just a few rounds, three people had been stabbed to death.
The assassin's martial arts style is rich in color.
Meng Tian became more and more convinced that these people were the remnants of Chu who shouted "Although Chu has three households, Qin will be destroyed, Chu will be destroyed."
However, in order to avoid Ying Zheng being affected, Meng Tian still protected Ying Zheng and retreated. He stepped forward ten steps away in front of a high wall and stabilized the rear. Meng Tian commanded four guards, lined up the guard formation, and fought fiercely with the assassin.
The assassin has good martial arts skills, and he is not afraid of death, and he exchanges his life for death. A guard is not careful and is killed by the assassin.
The thighs on the guard's hands turned black at a speed visible to the naked eye. The guard's face was twitching in pain and fell to the ground unwillingly.
"The criminal's sword is poisonous, two or three sons are careful!"
Meng Tian's face became very gloomy.
These survivors who attempted to restore the country were difficult to deal with in this era, terrorists of this era spared no effort to deal with.
"Brother Qin, the criminal is in danger, I have to summon a helping hand."
Ying Zheng went out of the palace to visit privately, and not many people knew about it. Reinforcements came, and things might be a big deal, and Meng Tian needed to ask Ying Zheng for his opinion.
"Your brother can do things cheaply."
Ying Zheng's face was very bad. The good mood of leaving the palace today disappeared in an instant.
Thinking deeper, his whereabouts had long been leaked. This is something that Ying Zheng absolutely cannot tolerate.
Meng Tian swung the sword shadow from the stabbing sword, Wuying kicked the opponent's knee with a "click", and the sound of the knee breaking was clearly heard.
"Woo woo woo woo--"
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Meng Tian took out the whistle from her arms, held it in her mouth, and blew it hard.
There were six people left on the assassin opposite.
In the short confrontation, half of the casualties were killed and killed, which was beyond the expectations of the assassin leader.
The information received by Zhongli Dan showed that the target person had four guards with him. Although he was very skilled in martial arts, he was not so stubborn.
He didn't expect that there was a master like Meng Tian next to Ying Zheng.
"What should I do now? Should I continue assassination?"
The five thousand gold given by the employer is not a small amount, but it also requires a life-saving flower.
The assassin did not rush to attack, and Meng Tian did not move forward rashly.
At this time, keeping your position steady and striving to ensure that Ying Zheng is unscathed, and waiting for the arrival of the patient reinforcements is the best decision.
Protecting important people and leading troops to fight, the result of pursuit is different.
"Crazy..."
In the distance, the sound of the market guard leading his troops came vaguely.
"Walk!"
Seeing that things were not done, Zhongli Dan decisively evacuated. The six assassins flashed and divided into six directions, and soon disappeared into the night of Xianyang.
The lanterns in Nanshi are still hanging high, but the ones in Xianyang are getting darker and darker.
"Who are you? How dare you use weapons in the city?"
When the Nanshi Prison arrived, the assassin had already escaped. He saw the corpse lying on the ground, the bronze swords on the waists of several people, and the bloody flowers on his body, and his face suddenly looked ugly.
In Xianyang City, he is still under his jurisdiction. Such a murder case occurs and is likely to be at the bottom of the year-end evaluation and will be punished.
"Open your dog's eyes widen, we are the victim."
Meng Tian took out the bronze and gold seal from his waist, and the four seal characters "Wuwei Houtian" were engraved on the bottom of the seal, facing Nanshijian.
"I am patrolling Nanshi and being assassinated by an assassin. If you don't arrange personnel quickly and investigate the murderer, do you still have to ask me if I can't blame me?"
"I dare not."
Nanshi Jianping took advantage of the fire to catch a glimpse of the golden seal in Meng Tian's hand, and then looked carefully. It was not Wuwei Hou Meng Tian or who was standing in front of him?
"Take out a piece of cake for this marquis to dispatch."
Meng Tian pulled out a team from the guards, carried the body of the guards, protected Ying Zheng, and quickly left Nanshi and headed towards the Wuwei Marquis Mansion.
Ying Zheng stood in the middle of the team, with a gloomy face and no words.
Anyone who encounters such a thing will not be in a good mood.
Ying Zheng knew in his heart that the target of the assassin was not the Marquis of Wuwei of Qin, but his Ying Zheng.
If Meng Tian hadn't responded calmly this time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
Could it be that I am really hated by the people of the six countries?
A sudden resentment arose deep in Ying Zheng's heart.
When he returned to the Marquis' Mansion, Meng Tian sent someone back and ordered a team of personal soldiers to protect Ying Zheng and return to Xianyang Palace quietly.
"Meng Tian, I will order Lu Hui to handle the arrest of assassins. If these people are caught, the three clans will be destroyed."
Only after returning to Xianyang Palace did Ying Zheng truly calm down.
"I hope Your Majesty will not make a big splash about the assassination of Your Majesty." Meng Tian replied.
"What does your dear say?"
"At that time, the assassination of Jing Ke's thief was full of controversy, and everyone in the city knew it. The Qin people were angry, but the six countries sighed. If the assassination of Nancheng, if the Xuanxuan went, Shandong would be inspired to learn that, and the power of the king Yu would be damaged."
Even if the assassin fails to spread, the impact will be bad if the assassin spreads.
"There is no better way to publicize it. Because I led my army to attack and destroy Chu, the people of Chu were resentful and waited for an opportunity to assassinate. Because they could not defeat the battlefield, they assassinated the generals who led the troops. This was a despised act."
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, wars were frequent, and I don’t know how many people led their troops. The generals who led their troops to fight were defeated on the battlefield and assassinated privately, which was difficult for others to accept.
The Shandong people assassinated Ying Zheng because Ying Zheng’s halo was too dazzling, which made Shandong people unable to see hope and could only think of a way to assassinate.
They thought that as long as Qin State lost Ying Zheng, Qin State would be in a slump.
"Your dear, is this group of assassins from Chu?"
Ying Zheng thought about it again and again that what Meng Tian said was indeed very reasonable.
"Whether it comes from Chu or not, I think it should be determined that the assassin comes from Chu."
Meng Tian clearly had an underground organization that resisted Qin. Without the princes in charge of the local area, the local military power was weak, so it was difficult to effectively clear it out.
