The Tang Dynasty: The Concubine of the Holy Soldier

Chapter 483 All officials demoted to three levels
Chapter 483 All officials demoted to three levels
The outermost assassins turned their heads and cast doubtful glances after hearing the sound of horseshoes. They thought they were patrolling soldiers from Chang'an City, but they found out that they were a young man riding a horse and a group of female soldiers.

These assassins didn't take them seriously at all, they took out fist-sized stones from their waist pockets and threw them in Bai Jingyi's direction.

However, just as they reached out to grab the stone, Bai Jingyi's war horse rushed over first.

A ray of light flashed in front of them with the Dark Gold Flowing Cloud Spear, instantly harvesting their lives, and their stones were still tightly held in their hands.

Bai Jingyi's team pierced the assassin's team like a long sword. Bai Jingyi was like the tip of a sword, and he kept waving the Dark Gold Flowing Cloud Spear in his hand, and clusters of blood shot up into the sky.

Those female guards in the rear were like sword blades, waving their long swords, reaping the lives of these assassins...

Then the female guards quickly changed their formation, and the 36 female guards were divided into [-] teams, charging back and forth from all the alleys, beheading all the assassins who were about to escape on the spot.

The biggest difference between these assassins and the common people is that the assassins are not afraid of death, while those common people hide in the corner and tremble.

Therefore, there is a high probability that they will not be killed by mistake, and these female guards can also hack and kill more recklessly.

With Bai Jingyi leading the team to join, in less than a stick of incense, they directly killed all these assassins on the spot.

Bai Jingyi didn't intend to keep alive, after all these assassins were brave enough to die, even if they were captured alive, they wouldn't confess anything at all.

This street exudes a soaring bloody smell, and many people are leaning on the wall and vomiting, as if they want to spit out the overnight meal...

At this time, there was a messy and loud sound of horseshoes from the streets on both sides.

The leaders were Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong. They led an army to block the entire street, but when they arrived here, they found that all the assassins had turned into corpses.

Cheng Yaojin shouted loudly with his broken voice: "The Holy Spirit has a decree! Don't let any one go!"

After these soldiers heard the order, they arrested all the civilians present. After all, the matter involved too much, and they would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go.

What's more, the purpose of arresting these people is not to kill them, but to torture and torture confessions, and to check their household registrations to prove their identities.

But anyone whose identity is unknown will be executed directly...

But Yu Chigong ordered: "Clean up all these corpses!"

The [-] troops seemed to be here to watch the excitement, [-] were responsible for arresting the civilians, and the other [-] were responsible for cleaning up the corpses.

This made Bai Jingyi feel very speechless, and at the same time complained in his heart: "This Li Er is really good! His own daughter was assassinated, he couldn't possibly fail to receive the news! As a result, he didn't even have the intention of showing up!"

"The army sent out is more like a joke. If we rely entirely on these people, I'm afraid Li Lizhi would have died thousands of times already!"

Bai Jingyi ignored the two of them and went straight to the carriage to visit Li Lizhi!

After hearing that there was no sound outside, Li Lizhi quickly opened the door of the carriage, and when he saw Bai Jingyi, he rushed over.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Li Lizhi didn't dislike the blood stains on Bai Jingyi's body at all, but hugged Bai Jingyi tightly and said, "Woooooo~ Lizhi thought she would never see her son-in-law again!"

Bai Jingyi patted Li Lizhi's back lightly and said, "Hey, don't be afraid!"

As he spoke, Bai Jingyi carried Li Lizhi directly onto the horse, and led the female guards towards the direction of the White Mansion. As for the mess here, I left it to the two of them to clean up.

When walking on the road, Bai Jingyi kept a warm smile all the time, just to make Li Lizhi more comfortable.

And his tone was always cold in his mind, and he said through the system command: "Investigate the clues of these people thoroughly! Find out why these people want to attack Lizhi!"

"Your subordinates obey!" King Lanling immediately led the Shadow Guards to search the entire Chang'an City for any clues related to these people after taking the order.

After returning to the White Mansion, Li Lizhi was still unwilling to leave Bai Jingyi, for fear that once she let go, she would never be able to see her again.

Bai Jingyi smiled lightly and said, "Lizhi is almost a bloody person! Go take a bath now!"

"No! Lizhi won't go! Lizhi wants her son-in-law to accompany Lizhi!" At the same time as the agreement was agreed, Li Lizhi hugged Bai Jingyi even tighter.

In desperation, Bai Jingyi could only hold Li Lizhi with one hand, and at the same time remove the armor under Li Anran's service...

At the same time, the news that all the assassins had been killed spread back to the palace!

"Report to Your Majesty! In Chang'an City, all the assassins were killed! A total of 350 people!"

"Oh!"

Li Er suddenly slapped the table.He stood up and shouted, "What did you say?"

"There are more than 6000 assassins sneaking into Chang'an City without knowing it. Are you people sleeping all day? You didn't notice it at all!"

"What a bunch of trash!"

In front of Li Er, there was a row of guarding generals of Chang'an City kneeling. After all, Chang'an City had many gates, so it was impossible for one person to be responsible for mixing in so many assassins.

"Report to Your Majesty! Now that the New Year's Eve is approaching, people from all over the Tang Dynasty are pouring into Chang'an City one after another, we..."

"Snapped!"

Li Er smashed a teacup in front of the general and shouted angrily: "Excuses! It's nothing more than dereliction of duty now! How dare you make excuses in front of me!"

"Punish you to be demoted three ranks!"

The rest of the guarding generals clasped their fists at Li Er and said, "It's my negligence! I hope the Holy Master will punish me!"

Li Er waved his hand and said: "Hmph! If you are dereliction of duty, all officials will be demoted to three ranks!"

After hearing this sentence, although the generals defending the city felt helpless, they could only cup their fists at Li Er and say, "I obey the order!"

Now that the Tang Dynasty is in a peaceful and prosperous age, the city defenders like them didn't have many chances to be promoted, and now they are demoted by three ranks, which is no different from an ordinary soldier.

Although there is still an official position, it is insignificant at all.

Li Er turned around and shouted angrily: "Martial law throughout the entire process, thoroughly investigate the traces of these assassins! You must find out for me, where did these assassins come from?"

"Yes!"

Then the group of people in front of them withdrew one after another, leaving only Li Er with his face darkened.

Li Er turned his head to look at Eunuch Chen and asked, "How is Lizhi now?"

Eunuch Chen replied cautiously: "Return to the words of the Holy Majesty! Her Royal Highness is safe! And she has been rescued by the King of Beiliang, and brought back to the White Mansion to rest!"

Hearing this, Li Er finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time said: "..."
