Dressed As the Deadly Opponent of the Male Protagonist of the Imperial Examination
Chapter 99: Snowy night assassination
"What do you mean by Zhao Xiwen?"
Tang Hang asked Pei Yunxiao incomprehensibly as soon as the two were taken down.
Pei Yunxiao pondered for a while, but couldn't think of a clue: "When things are up to now, is it possible that they have any other plans?"
"The King Rong is indeed dead, and none of your Majesty's other brotherhoods and strengths can be compared with King Rong. Who else can they recommend to the upper position? Can't they try to usurp the throne by themselves?"
Tang Hang echoed: "It's absolutely impossible. They can find a high-sounding reason to follow King Rong, claiming to be orthodox. If they blatantly rebelled, wouldn't they become the chariots and thieves?"
Pei Yunxiao's heart moved.
Didn’t Tang Heng in the book eventually go the path of a chaotic minister and thieves?
Oh, that's not right! He also found a high-sounding reason for himself, so that the little emperor gave an edict on the position of Zen, and accepted it after a fake refusal. Isn't this also orthodox!
After the count of the Rongwang rebellious party, the emperor's imperial decree finally arrived.
According to the imperial edict, after the army has settled everything in Rongjun, the offender should be escorted back to Beijing. However, because of the special identities of Zhao Xiwen and He Can, they had to be escorted secretly, and the He and Zhao families in the capital were not allowed to have the chance to get in.
Tang Heng immediately followed the order.
He first allowed the soldiers in the army who belonged to the Jiangnan government to return to the station to ensure that there would be no chaos in the station and that life would return to normal as soon as possible.
After that, they selected generals who had worked hard to counter the rebellion, such as Du Shao of the Xizhou Battalion, and returned to Beijing with Chi Yuan and the Gyeonggi Guards to ask the Lord for credit.
And he himself took Pei Yunxiao and Zhou Bi, as well as Jinnian and Jinying, hiding all the way, secretly escorting Zhao Xiwen and He Can back to Beijing.
They were a group of seven, dressed as a caravan, Jinnian dressed as a wealthy businessman, He Zhou Bi guarded Zhao Xiwen and He Can in a carriage, while Tang Hang, Jinying and Pei Yunxiao dressed as collateralized entourages, riding behind them, and at the same time It can also be vigilant.
Tang Heng originally planned to let Pei Yunxiao stay in the carriage, but Pei Yunxiao couldn't let Zhao Xiwen and He Can discover their deeds, so they stayed outside.
All the way lightly, they walked quickly, and quickly went north across the river to the jurisdiction of Gyeonggi Province.
As soon as we arrived in Jiangbei, the temperature dropped sharply, and big snowflakes floated in the sky.
Tang Heng chose an ordinary inn for the night.
Tonight, it is his turn to guard Zhao Xiwen and He Can.
In the middle of the night, the snow that had fallen for the day stopped slowly, leaving behind a vast expanse of whiteness.
Pei Yunxiao didn't have much sleep, put on his clothes, put on brocade fur, and stood in a daze by the railing of the inn.
She had been thinking about the emperor's true intentions for them to secretly **** Zhao Xiwen and He Can to Beijing.
These two people, no matter how you say them, are the protagonists of the He family and the Zhao family, and their identities are unusual. Perhaps the emperor wanted to take this opportunity to use him as an excuse to question Zhao and He.
And if the Zhao family and the He family don't want to be implicated, the best way is to solve the lives of these two people during the escort. When the time came, there was no proof, and the emperor couldn't help it.
Could it be that there are other possibilities?
This idea suddenly popped into Pei Yunxiao's mind, but unfortunately there was no evidence or conclusion. This thought was like a solitary question, but it gradually occupied the most thoughts of Pei Yunxiao.
Suddenly, Pei Yunxiao's ear moved.
She seemed to hear something?
The thoughts in her mind were instantly covered, her heart tightened, and she looked around vigilantly.
After stopping for a while, just when she thought she was just hearing a hallucination, a cluster of fire suddenly shot up from the backyard of the inn, and Pei Yunxiao was startled--that was...their carriage?
Before she could react, the lights in the room that were imprisoned by Zhao Xiwen and He Can were suddenly turned off, and then there was the sound of fighting and swords.
Oops! Pei Yunxiao turned around and was about to enter the house, intending to call Jinying who lives with her.
As soon as she turned around, a sword suddenly pierced out of the oblique thorn, and the blade was just in front of her nose, and the reflected cold light almost blinded her eyes.
Pei Yunxiao subconsciously pulled out the self-defense saber around his waist and raised his hand to block. The sword was provoked, and Pei Yunxiao stepped back to the left, facing the black-clothed assassin.
Pei Yunxiao did not know how to martial arts. When he was a child, he only learned a few tricks from the master of the four Jinnian brothers and sisters. But her archery skills are good, her head is good, and her strength is stronger than that of ordinary women.
She confronted the black-clothed assassin, thinking about what she could do with him to delay time.
There was a fight in the room, and Jinying should have been attacked in the room. Zhou Bi and Jinnian next door can't be spared even if they want to come.
Jinying Wuyi can take care of herself, but if she takes her, it will be a bit difficult. After thinking about it, Pei Yunxiao's best choice is to retreat back and join Tang Hang.
After thinking about this, Pei Yunxiao raised his hand and held a sword flower in a posture of resistance.
The black-clothed assassin really bullied him forward, Pei Yunxiao raised his sword in front of his chest, turning the only tricks that he knew, and acting extremely realistically, but his footsteps kept retreating backwards.
The killer was not a fool. At first, he was bluffed by Pei Yunxiao and didn't dare to get too close, but after three moves, he found that the person in front of him was just a fake handle. He laughed, raised his sword and stabbed him.
At the very moment, a dart flew out from behind Pei Yunxiao, hitting the killer's throat.
The assassin's figure stopped for a moment, and fell straight back.
The next moment, Tang Hang spun out of the house, grabbed Pei Yunxiao's waist, jumped onto the railing, and jumped directly down.
"Zhao Xiwen..." Pei Yunxiao whispered in her ears, and she reminded Tang Hang loudly that he didn't know why he didn't care about the offender, but fleeing with all his heart.
As soon as Tang Hangfu landed, there was a whistle, and the Dawan BMW that Li Yeyou had sent him galloped over. He dragged Pei Yun Xiaofei on his horse, and the horse rushed out like an arrow from the string.
"There is a ghost." Tang Heng had the opportunity to explain it at this time.
"I don't know why, but Zhao Xiwen and He Can were rescued! These people came for us!"
Rescued? Pei Yunxiao was shocked, and his heart was once again wrapped in mist.
Worthy of being a famous Dawan horse, much faster than the Zhongyuan horse. The killers who chased them behind were left far behind. But even so, Tang Heng did not dare to relax.
Pei Yunxiao sat in front of Tang Xuan, not daring to move.
The cold wind roared beside him, as if to set off the chase of the dark night, the snow that had stopped in the middle of the night also floated again, even more and more!
I can't see the way forward clearly, sitting on the fast-moving Pegasus, the snow flakes across my cheeks, painful like a blade.
"Head down!" Tang Heng shouted, leading Pei Yunxiao to pounce on the horse's neck.
A few arrows flicked past their heads and disappeared into the darkness.
This may really be just a round! This is the only thought left in Pei Yunxiao's heart
A game that killed Tang Heng!
Tang Hang held the military power and was reused by the emperor, and he was famous in the court. If he died, too many people would benefit!
Pei's? Zhao's family? What family? Or those family members who hate Tang Heng?
"Call—" Tang Heng suddenly tightened the reins, and stopped suddenly, with the horse's hoof raised, and the horse standing upright.
The two lost their balance and fell to the ground.
Pei Yunxiao got up in a hurry, and looked down—it was the narrow mountain road that they had passed through when they came. Below, there was a bottomless cliff!
The sound of horseshoes behind him is getting closer and closer.
Tang Hang showed a strange smile, lowered his head and asked her, "Are you afraid?"
"What are you afraid of?" Pei Yunxiao didn't understand.
Tang Hang stretched her arms, wrapped her around his waist, hugged Pei Yunxiao's body, and whispered to her ear: "Close your eyes, trust me!"
The chased men and horses shot another wave of arrows. Tang Heng glanced back, his body was unexpected, and he tapped his feet and jumped down.
Pei Yunxiao's body instantly lost weight, biting her lip desperately, not letting herself scream, and then, the fierce fear of falling finally defeated her reason and completely fainted.
When he woke up again, Pei Yunxiao found himself lying on the flat ground, covered with Tang Heng's Diaoqiu.
She sat up full of doubts and saw that it was a cave, with daylight shining from the entrance of the cave, and a fire was lit in the cave. Tang Hang sat next to it holding a branch, roasting a bald hair. A pheasant cleaned of guts.
"Wake up?" Tang Heng raised his head and smiled at her when he heard the movement.
Pei Yunxiao lowered his head, his eyes rolled a few times, as if he was looking for something. Immediately, she grabbed the small stone closest to herself and threw it at him, just hitting Tang Heng's chest.
"Tang Hang! Did you deliberately!" Pei Yunxiao frowned.
Tang Hang received the stone at once, squeezed it in his hand, and threw it aside: "I'm sorry, it's urgent, I haven't had time to tell you."
"Then when did you think of this idea?" Pei Yunxiao folded his arms and stared at him with wide eyes.
Tang Hang looked at Pei Yun's chic and bulging appearance, he was unexpectedly agile, even a bit like the peculiar-tempered parrot raised in Han Shaozhen's Manor, he couldn't help but want to laugh a little.
"As soon as I played against them, I felt that something was wrong. These people didn't come to kill Zhao Xiwen and He Can, but came to save them." Tang Hang explained.
"I can't figure out why, so I just used the plan and asked them to take the people away. Then I thought that we had passed this cliff on the way here, and planned to make a scene of hurting and falling off the cliff."
Only then did Pei Yunxiao understand. She said that how Tang Heng was so good could make people take away Zhao Xiwen and He Can effortlessly, and she did it deliberately.
"What about after that?" she asked.
"Now the situation has turned into the enemy's light and my dark, let's take a detour to see what they want to do!" Tang Hang said.
"But..." Pei Yunxiao was puzzled: "Since they want your life, if you just fall off the cliff, they will not be relieved, they will definitely come to look for it, then..."
"This is easy to handle." Tang Heng had already planned.
"If they insist on finding us before giving up, then kill them, detour out of the mountain, and chase the team of Zhao Xiwen and He Can. If they give up searching, we will just follow."
"Crap!" Pei Yunxiao slapped his head: "Jin Nian and Jin Ying found out that I was missing, they must be anxious to death!"
"Don't worry, I must have brought Zhou out. Since I have led the chasing soldiers away, he will understand what I mean. He will lead Jinnian and Jinying to follow Zhao Xiwen and his party. When we go out, we will contact them."
When co-author Tang Heng played against the killer, everything was settled. But he didn't tell her in advance, and jumped off the cliff with her in his arms!
Pei Yunxiao became more angry as she thought about it, grabbed a handful of gravel, and threw it at Tang Hang.
Tang Heng dodged from side to side and avoided everything, so angry that Pei Yunxiao couldn't help him.
The roast chicken in his hand gradually smelled of fragrance, and Tang Heng stood up, held the branch, and walked over.
"Eat some chicken to calm your breath?"
