~10 min read 1,806 words

Moreover, he was followed by a squad of Imperial Guard personal soldiers.

They killed several assassins on the spot!

This group of assassins was larger in number than the one that had dealt with Tong Lu.

There were fully thirty of them.

Because they knew that the strength and status of Mei Changsu and his companions were not simple.

Twenty were killed very quickly.

The remaining ten, seeing that failure was imminent.

Did not flee.

They continued to fight with all their might.

Fighting to the death without retreating!

Before they were completely wiped out, they desperately inflicted heavy injuries on Li Gang!

Fei Liu also suffered minor injuries.

Meng Zhi’s expression changed; he wanted to capture at least one alive.

The opponent, however, bit into a pouch of poison in their mouth!

They died on the spot!

Not a single one was left alive!

Meng Zhi was incomparably grave.

"Li Gang!!"

Mei Changsu sorrowfully held the heavily injured and unconscious Li Gang, and then he immediately said.

"Hurry back and find Physician Yan for treatment!"

Meng Zhi agreed.

Then he had one of his personal guards.

Go to the Prince Jing’s Mansion to notify Prince Jing.

Then he personally drove the carriage.

Leading the team to escort Mei Changsu and the others, they whipped the horses and rushed back to Su Zhai at lightning speed.

"Auntie Ji."

"Auntie Ji?"

"Physician Yan."

After arriving at the gate of Su Zhai, Fei Liu immediately shouted to open the door.

There was no response.

He mistakenly thought that because the snow was too heavy and the weather too cold, everyone had already fallen into a deep sleep.

He simply leaped up.

Climbed over the wall.

And opened the door from the inside.

The door had just opened.

Meng Zhi had already carried the heavily injured Li Gang, who had been unconscious for several minutes, and strode into the gate.

Mei Changsu followed behind, coughing painfully from time to time.

Then they walked inside.

Calling out for people along the way.

They went to the rooms of Auntie Ji, Physician Yan, and the others, but saw no one.

Su Zhai was deathly silent!

This left Meng Zhi and the others stunned.

Mei Changsu had a bad premonition.

Having emerged from battlefields of mountains of corpses and seas of blood, he quickly smelled the lingering scent of blood in the air.

And the water stains on the ground.

This made Mei Changsu’s already pale face turn even paler.

He sorrowfully stopped Fei Liu, who was constantly shouting to find people, and said: "It’s useless, they must have already been murdered."

Thinking of Auntie Ji’s meticulous care and concern for him in daily life.

And Physician Yan; after all, Mei Changsu had a stubborn nature, and even when bedridden, he could not bear to put down the things in his hands.

And Physician Yan was the one who watched Mei Changsu to ensure he took his medicine and rested on time.

As soon as Physician Yan appeared, Mei Changsu would instantly take his medicine obediently.

Yet, even such a lovely Physician Yan had been murdered!

Mei Changsu thought, how were they innocent?

He was incomparably sorrowful!

"Damn it, ah ah ah, who is it? I want to kill them!"

Fei Liu was filled with grief and indignation, looking up to the sky and roaring wildly!

"......"

No one responded.

Meng Zhi said gravely: "The most urgent task now is to find someone to treat Li Gang."

Because searching for people had delayed them for a while.

Plus the freezing weather.

Li Gang was losing more and more body heat.

It was getting more and more serious.

Hearing Meng Zhi’s words, Mei Changsu woke up.

He had to temporarily suppress his sorrowful mood.

"Find another physician!"

"Let’s go to the Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang’s Mansion."

"Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang’s Mansion?"

"Yes, Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang’s Mansion has a divine physician named Hua Tuo, who is a guest of the Marquis. It is said he is very capable and has treated many people recently, including Jia Jia Jia Baoyu’s butt injury. Many high-ranking officials and nobles have also flocked to the Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang’s Mansion to seek medical treatment, but Hua Tuo only treats those who have a good relationship with the Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang’s Mansion; otherwise, he won't treat them no matter how much money is offered."

After hearing this, Mei Changsu believed that his relationship with Jia Hui was decent, and the other party would surely give him this face.

"Good, let’s rush to the Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang’s Mansion immediately!"

He quickly made the decision.

So they got back into the carriage.

Without stopping, they prepared to rush to the Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang’s Mansion.

But just as they got into the carriage.

Li Gang’s hand dropped powerlessly!

Mei Changsu and Fei Liu’s expressions changed instantly.

Mei Changsu grabbed Li Gang’s hand to take his pulse.

Then he shook his head at Fei Liu.

"Uncle Li Gang!!"

Fei Liu cried out in pain!

"Changsu, Commander Meng, how is the situation? Are you all right?"

Just at this moment.

Prince Jing, having heard the report from Meng Zhi’s personal guards, also rushed over with dozens of personal guards from the Prince’s Mansion.

The carriage stopped.

Mei Changsu emerged from the carriage with a blank expression.

But Meng Zhi, Fei Liu, and the others could all feel his violent grief and indignation!

He wanted to kill to vent his anger!

"Dead."

"They are all dead."

"Except for me and Fei Liu, everyone is dead."

Looking at Prince Jing.

Mei Changsu said with a hoarse voice.

It was the first time Prince Jing had seen Mei Changsu Love Love Like this, and he sighed: "My condolences."

"I swear to avenge this!"

Mei Changsu said with grief and indignation.

For the sake of revenge, he was willing to treat everyone as chess pieces.

Even his childhood sweetheart Ni Huang had been treated this way before.

But he was unwilling, unwilling to let them die without any value!

Prince Jing frowned and said: "Crossbow bolts were found at the scene, and they were all dead soldiers; the opponent’s power is not simple. Do you have any clues?"

Fei Liu, Meng Zhi, and the others all looked at Mei Changsu.

Mei Changsu was now incomparably angry, but this also made him incomparably calm!

His brain was working at high speed!

"Today is unusual."

"Why was the curfew time moved up?"

"The Five Cities Military Commission... there is a problem!"

He said.

Fei Liu, whose mind was clouded by grief and indignation, shouted sternly: "I will go and kill them!"

Mei Changsu stopped him immediately.

"The Five Cities Military Commission is under the command of Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang; that’s impossible, right?"

Hearing Mei Changsu’s words, Prince Jing subconsciously frowned and denied it.

Meng Zhi also didn't believe it.

After all, Jia Hui was loyal and righteous, with a reputation that reached the heavens!

It was known to the whole world.

He did not believe that Jia Hui would plot against Mei Changsu.

"Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang couldn't possibly plot against you, and besides, he shouldn't even know your identity."

Meng Zhi spoke his mind.

Mei Changsu saw that both of them trusted Jia Hui so much.

He frowned slightly.

He actually wasn't too sure either.

"It might not necessarily be Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang; after all, Marquis Marquis Marquis Wushuang has only been in charge of the Military Commission for a short time."

"And he is mainly in charge of the Ministry of War now."

"The Military Commission is not necessarily under his control; the people below might be acting in defiance of orders and doing whatever they want."

Hearing this.

Prince Jing and Meng Zhi nodded in agreement this time.

"That is possible, but it would be better to ask clearly."

Prince Jing immediately had someone call over a nearby patrol squad of Military Commission soldiers.

"Why did you move up the curfew?"

Mei Changsu and the others stared fixedly at the other party’s eyes.

Trying to see something.

[478] Mei Changsu wants to tear Jia Hui into pieces! Did Gong Yu see that I am a transmigrator?

"The higher-ups said that recently there have been more rebels and the capital is unstable, so the curfew was moved up."

The questioned soldier said without hesitation.

Hearing this.

Prince Jing and Meng Zhi looked at each other.

There was no problem with these words.

After all, there had been multiple examples of rebellion last month.

Therefore, being careful was not a mistake.

And they all knew clearly.

"During this period, court officials have indeed submitted many memorials asking the Military Commission, the Jingzhao Prefecture, and the Imperial Guard to conduct strict inspections and be careful and vigilant."

"Therefore, this move by the Military Commission is not inappropriate."

Meng Zhi said.

Even their Imperial Guard had been very strict recently, keeping their spirits at a twelve-point high.

Strengthening the intensity of patrols.

Prince Jing nodded along, "And come to think of it, moving up the curfew itself is not a problem; it seems to have no connection with the assassins' attack. After all, even if the curfew wasn't moved up, it wouldn't affect the assassins' assassination!"

Mei Changsu was cold and thoughtful on the surface.

In his heart, he agreed with their arguments.

Therefore, his suspicion of the Five Cities Military Commission dissipated.

There were too few clues now.

After thinking about it, he couldn't find where the problem lay.

Who could have attacked him?

He first ruled out the aforementioned Jia Hui.

Because he couldn't find a reasonable motive.

Jia Hui had no grudge against him.

The previous generation shouldn't have one either.

After all, Jia Hui was already a peripheral member of the Jia family, outside the five degrees of mourning.

Moreover, it was a recognized fact that Jia Hui did not have a good relationship with the Ning and Rong Prefectures.

It was a public matter.

Therefore, thinking it over, Jia Hui had no reason to want to move against him.

There was no way.

Mei Changsu couldn't possibly imagine that Jia Hui was a transmigrator.

Familiar with the plot.

And he didn't even know that he was a super ambitious person.

The main reason was also that Jia Hui was too young.

Which had a strong sense of deception.

His foundation was not deep enough, making it hard to believe that he wanted to rebel at such an age.

The key was also this ability and power.

Therefore.

After ruling out Jia Hui.

Mei Changsu first locked his target onto several Imperial Princes.

Because he thought.

Recently, Jia Hui had been keeping a distance from the Crown Prince, Prince Yu, Prince Cao, and others, not agreeing to follow any of them.
