Chapter 452 The sudden change in the situation
After Dugu Sanzang and others figured out the current situation in the capital, they felt that an assassination was still feasible, but Lin Yunfei and the others would definitely not dare to touch him. Not to mention that there were so many heroes around him, Lin Yunfei himself would be difficult to deal with, so everyone The target turned to the prince.
It stands to reason that the prince's residence is also heavily guarded, and assassination would not be an easy task originally. However, upon investigation, Dugu Sanzang and others discovered that there was actually an opportunity to take advantage of the matter. It turned out that many people did not bother to take Ning Sixiao away in the rush to evacuate. , among them was a group of palace servants. These people had a special status and had nowhere to go after leaving the palace. So later, after the capital was settled, they all came back one after another. At that time, the capital was under the control of Niu Gan. He thought about it and let these people They helped repair the palace and cleaned it. Later, when the prince moved in, these people served the prince as a matter of course, and some of them were acquaintances of Dugu Sanzang and the others.
The rebels then used various methods to recruit a few of them to work for them. Because these people served as internal agents, the rebels might sneak into the palace and assassinate the prince. Now that the plan has been made, they are just waiting for the opportunity in a day or two. And move.
Xiang Buqun participated in the whole plan and couldn't help but murmur in his heart. After what happened last time, he had changed his views on Luo Tianbao and Ye Di. He was also a little shaken about whether An Qibao was right to serve the rebels. He always Thinking that if the assassination was really successful, not only the army would be in chaos, but Luo Tianbao and Ye Di would also be implicated. Xiang Buqun was a very loyal person, and he thought that the other party had the benefit of saving his life. , although he could not betray An Qibao and stand openly on the side of the army, but he had to repay this favor, so he came here tonight to inform Luo Tianbao and others. Even though there were so many people at the station, he was not alone. With his martial arts skills, it was really easy to sneak in. Even Ye Di didn't notice it at first.
Luo and Ye both couldn't help being shocked after hearing this. If the prince made a mistake, none of the civil and military officials in the capital would be involved, let alone the impact on the war situation. Xiang Buqun really helped his side this time. It was a big help. Luo Tianbao stepped forward and saluted: "Third Senior Brother, you have done us a great favor this time. I would like to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the rebel army."
Xiang Buqun glanced at Luo Tianbao with an embarrassed look on his face: "Don't call me so affectionate yet. I'm just here to repay you for saving your life last time. I have no intention of reconciling with you. I don't even recognize Ye Di, my junior sister." , it’s even more out of the question for you to have a third senior brother."
Although Luo Tianbao was hit with a problem, he was not very angry because he could feel that Xiang Buqun was just shy and embarrassed to admit it. At that moment, he did not continue to talk in depth, but asked: "Which brother Xiang can lead?" Shall we arrest those spies?"
"Yes, that's what I'm here for, but there's one thing. I can't appear in public. I don't care, but I don't want to implicate my master and the Xiaoyao Sect."
Luo Tianbao nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "That's natural. Brother Xiang has helped us so much, so of course we don't want to embarrass you."
Immediately, Xiang Buqun introduced the hiding place of the spies and the relevant situation to Luo Tianbao and others. After Luo Tianbao found out, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly went to his father to report it. Lin Yunfei was also shocked when he heard this. He said that Dugu Sanzang and his gang were too arrogant and came to assassinate the prince right under his nose. If they succeeded, his reputation as the best in the world would be discredited. Lin Yunfei immediately mobilized his troops to arrest him separately.
According to Xiang Buqun's introduction, the spies who came to assassinate this time mainly settled in three places. The raids in the first two places went very smoothly. When they got there, they blocked the house and the other party didn't even have time to resist. They were arrested at the last breath.
There were more than thirty people, but they were basically minor characters. None of the leaders, including Dugu Sanzang, were seen. Luo Tianbao and others who were responsible for the arrest at the time were a little suspicious. Was it a pure coincidence or had the news leaked?
When everyone was checking the third place introduced by Xiang Buqun, which was also the largest place for the rebels to stay in the capital, an accident happened. Everyone rushed into the house and saw that the building was empty, without even leaving any useful pieces of paper.
In the next picture, although Luo Tianbao is young, he has experienced great things in the past few years, and he realized at that time that something was wrong.
"It's bad, the news must have leaked."
"Can it?" Liu Bai, who followed, couldn't help but ask.
"Inform the garrison of each gate that they are not allowed to open the city without an order, and then tell Li Bu that Gao Yulan has asked them to lead a search throughout the city, and no suspicious persons will be easily let go!"
"Understood." Liu Bai heard this and hurried down to deliver the order. At this moment, Luo Tianbao's mind suddenly came up with a bold idea.
"This group of people won't go directly to the palace, right?"
Although Luo Tianbao also felt that doing such a thing in this situation was tantamount to pulling chestnuts from the fire, but the consequences would be disastrous. He immediately arranged for people to stay and continue the search to see if they could find any clues. At the same time, he
He rushed back to the palace with a large number of people.
In fact, in order to catch the spies in the palace, Lin Yunfei had asked the Great Protector Pan Hong and some of the heroes who came to help to go to the palace. However, Luo Tianbao was still worried. If Dugu Sanzang was really there, these people would not be able to cope with it.
As soon as Luo Tianbao arrived at the gate of the palace, he saw the scene was in chaos. When he asked someone, he found out that it was an assassin. Luo Tianbao felt his heart sinking at that time. He was afraid that something might happen. At that time, he didn't care about etiquette and took Ye Di and others.
People rushed in, but when they arrived at the prince's palace, they were already in a mess. Although there were many people on the government and army side, they were obviously at a disadvantage. Luo Tianbao took a closer look and saw Pan Hong and two guards protecting the prince.
Hiding in the corner, they wanted to fight out, but the assassins were too skilled in martial arts. At this time, a great monk was resisting the thieves in front of the prince and others. This man was really capable. He could fight against several people by himself. Luo Tianbao took a closer look.
It was none other than Yifeng monk Weng Tailai. Luo Tianbao had not seen him since the last time he challenged Lin Yunfei to a martial arts competition and lost. Luo Tianbao originally thought that he would be too embarrassed to see anyone back to the mountain, but he did not expect to meet him here now.
But looking at the situation, it was thanks to his presence, otherwise the prince and others would have been finished long ago. Even so, the situation was still precarious. Seeing several assassins rushing in front of the prince, Pan Hong waved his thirteen-link chain whip to resist. It was said that he was next to Lin Yunfei.
The leader of the four guardians is not bad at martial arts, but these assassins who came helplessly are not ordinary people. Pan Hong obviously couldn't resist it with his own strength. As a result, a big man rushed directly in front of the prince. The two guards thought
He wanted to stop him, but he was forced away by the big man in three or two blows. Then he stretched out his big hands like cattail leaf fans and ran towards the prince to grab him.
"Bold maniac, how dare you commit such a crime!?" Despite the young age of the prince, he has experienced the world. Although he was panicking at this time, he still put on the appearance of a prince of the country, holding a sword across his chest to protect his chest.
While yelling at the other party loudly.
