Chapter 142: Holding a Chicken Feather as an Arrow
"Little brother, this may be a misunderstanding! Let's keep it private!"
Li Yuanchang relied on the strength of the crowd and did not take Yang Ming seriously. He stepped forward alone, walked to Zhang Dawei's body and looked at it carefully before telling his speculation!
"This mountain road is rugged, and everyone is worried about encountering thieves. Look at the appearance of your entourage. They are all fierce and armed. My guards should have taken action to deal with them out of safety concerns!"
"I would like to ask this noble prince, if you kill someone to pay for your life and pay your debts for money, my demands are not excessive. Is it natural and right?!"
Yang Ming silently counted around. This man who called himself the prince had a total of twenty-eight male guards, four maids, and a carriage with unknown contents!
A quarter of an hour passed. After Yang Ming was sure that Lin Wan'er was not imprisoned in the carriage, he continued to talk nonsense with Li Yuanchang!
"Little brother, I'm deeply sorry for the misfortune of your entourage. My two guards have just entered the world and don't know the laws of the Tang Dynasty. How about I take out three gold cakes and treat them as buying this
Three lives lost!”
Li Yuanchang is a little confused. This young man is not moved when he hears my name? Why is he facing the carriage in the distance with his eyes half-closed in trance? Is it possible that he is really an assassin? Wanting to hide someone on my carriage?!
He was no longer interested in Yang Ming at this moment. He felt that although his martial arts skills were high, he was too dangerous. He had to guard against bad people and had no extra time to tame him!
So he winked, and the four maids near the carriage immediately understood what he was thinking. They immediately used small stools to pull up the curtains and entered the carriage to search carefully!
"My lord, you can rest assured that I am not an unreasonable person, and I would not dare to do the same thing and be disrespectful to the prince. I was just thinking about how to get the prince to hand over these two murderers to me!"
Yang Ming was relieved. None of Li Yuanchang's remaining twenty-odd guards had the martial arts skills of the two in front. Otherwise, with so many peerless masters gathered together, they could defeat Shen Wenliang's army with their eyes closed!
But having said that, the more than twenty guards escorting Li Yuanchang can be considered elites in the army, and their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of the second-rate soldiers led by Yang Ming.
Besides, this old boy Li Yuanchang is extremely rich. Maybe there is some sophisticated combat equipment and a bunch of unnamed supplies hidden behind their carriage at this moment!
"Hahaha! Little brother, I respect you as a man, so I agreed to use three gold cakes to make a friend. If you still want to make trouble unreasonably and want me to make friends with you, then don't blame me for ordering an encirclement and suppression of you.
Caravan!"
Li Yuanchang looked at the ordinary carriage in Yang Ming's team, as well as the remaining dozen followers wearing various shabby clothes. He was a little suspicious that Yang Ming was deliberately trying to cheat him out of gold bars!
Yang Ming's carriage looks ordinary on the outside, but it's actually quite different on the inside.
All the way back from Youzhou, Yang Ming spent a lot of time on the modification of this carriage. The shock absorption and sound insulation effects are excellent, but there is no seat belt, so it cannot handle sudden braking!
"My lord, I'm not bragging! If your lord refuses to hand over these two murderers today, I'll let the next one explain. Then I'll have to do it for once. In order to help my followers get justice, I have to let my lord encircle and suppress them!"
With Yang Ming's protective personality, how could he give in because the other party is a prince, let alone a useless prince who can only live for six more years!
"Is it worth risking the lives of an entire caravan just for a few followers? I still want the king to find out your place of origin and help you take care of your clan members!"
Li Yuanchang didn't want to cause trouble. If there were other guards, let alone two, even twenty, he would abandon them at the critical moment! But these two were different, and he didn't dare to hand them over to Yang Ming...
"My lord, do you also feel that sometimes the life of the emperor's relatives is not easy, they are alone in the darkness, and it feels like their days are like years, just like the Zhao family in Qingzhou City is now in danger..."
Yang Ming deliberately exposed a little of the imperial edict given by Li Shimin, so that Li Yuanchang could see it, and then immediately covered it up. The process was made mysterious and Li Yuanchang was frightened!
Li Yuanchang wanted to use his tribe to intimidate him and use both soft and hard tactics on him. He would use the same method to retaliate!
"Who are you?!"
After Li Yuanchang saw the imperial edict, he shouted loudly and even trembled when he spoke!
The professional level was demonstrated at the critical moment. Li Yuanchang's team suddenly changed into a defensive formation, protecting Li Yuanchang in the center of the formation, with large shields and crossbows set up in four directions...
The guards on Yang Ming's side stood on tiptoes and looked curiously. Three brothers were dead, but their hearts were still so big. They didn't mount their horses or draw their swords, so they just bought a bag of melon seeds and sat next to them.
Watch the excitement!
Deng Sanqi helped Xiong Lei, who had suffered serious internal injuries, from the rubble and stood in the distance watching Yang Ming's every move.
The two of them took the letter from their master in the morning and arrived at the prince's mansion in Qingzhou in a majestic manner. The process of recognizing the master has not been completed for more than a day. Is it possible that they will be abandoned by the prince just because they killed a few passers-by?!
"Haha! I am just an errand boy, a servant responsible for getting rid of the Zhao family and all its industries. My identity and status cannot be compared with the prince, but at least I can be regarded as the knife in his hand!"
Yang Ming looked at his scattered team and shook his head and sighed.
It's like a mountain across the road. When returning to Yangjiapu, Xiaocui has to ask Zhong Kai to select some capable guards. Otherwise, it's one thing whether it's embarrassing or not. If you go out with this group of energetic young people, you don't know how you'll die!
"It turns out that a flood washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family didn't recognize each other! The little brother was reused at such a young age, which is really enviable! This has been going on for a long time, and I still don't know what to call the little brother!
"
Li Yuanchang's brain was running rapidly. He was making the best plans and the worst plans at the same time! Could it be that his second brother really wanted to send a group of people secretly to swallow up the Zhao family in one breath?!
The atmosphere has improved a bit, but judging from the security situation of Li Yuanchang's guards, Yang Ming is still in danger, and a dose of relaxing medicine is needed to comfort the frightened Li Yuanchang!
"I'm going down to the rank of Captain Yang Ming to pay my respects to the King of Han!"
Yang Ming strolled towards Li Yuanchang, and when he was ten steps away from the guard, he stopped and saluted.
"But the founder of Dai County, Yang Ming of Hongnong Yang family?!"
Li Yuanchang waved his hand, and the defensive formation immediately withdrew skillfully. All the guards seemed to be fine, and their expressions immediately relaxed. They did whatever they had to do, and they were vigilant around the carriage as before.
"Returning to your Majesty, Your Majesty will mobilize some palace guards to assist the minister to go to Qingzhou. I just want to ask the head of the Zhao family to cooperate in the investigation of the Yang family's assassination and the disappearance of his wife. If I have offended you in any way, I hope your Majesty will forgive you!"
What is the power of a fox and a tiger?!
What is using chicken feathers as an arrow?!
No matter whether the head of the Zhao family is following Feng Deyi or following the royal relative above the court. As long as the mother-in-law wants someone, Yang Ming will have to dig deep to get this Zhao.
The head of the clan should be dug out!
If he is not capable enough and his influence is not strong, then he will bring out Li Shimin to scare people.
Is it possible that someone who is familiar with history like him would be worried about Li Yuanchang and go to inform Li Shimin privately! When Li Yuanchang meets Li Shimin, he is like a mouse meeting a cat. When they meet, he will probably be so scared that he won't even dare to fart.
!
"Well! Since the head of the Zhao family is suspected of hiring a murderer, it's okay for Captain Yang to be taken away in accordance with the laws of the Tang Dynasty! It's just a matter of two guards. Can Captain Yang look out for the king's favor and make the big thing a trivial matter?
, it’s become a trivial matter!”
Sure enough, the palace guards suddenly appeared in Qingzhou. Sure enough, it was because Zhao Danda kicked Yang Ming's iron plate!
Just the fact that the private feud between the aristocratic families attracted Li Shimin's attention and lent the palace guards showed that the Yang family paid a lot of price for it. It also showed that this second-rate Zhao Dan was so big that he successfully drove other aristocratic families into the arms of Li Shimin!
Yang Ming looked around at Li Yuanchang, and after he moved the guard screen back, he stepped forward and whispered:
"King Han, this subordinate can't make the decision! Look at my team, what do they look like? These people have mediocre martial arts skills, low positions, but very special status. Even if nothing happens, the subordinates don't want to talk to them.
!”
Li Yuanchang had an ominous premonition in his heart, but he couldn't help but asked curiously:
"Is it possible that these people are not the guards of your Yang Mansion?!"
"My prince! If these dead people were my people, I would have been hiding aside with three pieces of gold cakes waiting for the prince's carriage to pass by. How could I have the guts to fight with your guards?"
Yang Ming pretended to be helpless, as if he was embarrassed not to dig a hole and bury Li Yuanchang!
"Could it be that these three dead people are all..."
"Your Majesty! There is only one person, the one with a hateful face and a scar on his face. That person is usually more unruly and does not look down upon his subordinates on the road, but he is a bad person no matter what.
ah!"
"Then what should we do? I don't even know that they are bad people!"
"Hey! I guess this group of people are usually arrogant, and your two guards are impatient, so that led to the tragedy!"
"Why don't I choose two bodyguards to go back with Captain Yang to return to duty?!"
The two of them walked farther and farther away, and the others also avoided knowingly. Anyone who accidentally heard the content of their chat may not see the sun tomorrow!
"Your Majesty, think again! If you are not afraid of being noticed by bad people, and if the guards you choose can withstand the interrogation of bad people, then no matter what your choice, Your Highness will not dare to object!"
"So there is no other way? Those two people must be handed over to Captain Yang?"
"Your Majesty, please don't say that. You didn't hand the person over to me. I also tried to snatch it from the prince, but the official was not strong enough and I tried my best. The bad guy will not blame the official on him.
..”
"Oh! Why did we meet these two ignorant young people! Captain Yang, please let me think about it, let me think about it!"
Li Yuanchang was also depressed. These two treasures were the two masters sent by the military to support him in the morning! If these people were sent to Yuan Tiangang, would there be some more unfounded charges?
Chapter completed!
