"This...why did it fall down all of a sudden?" Zhao Junsheng was dumbfounded, looked at the soldier lying in the flower garden, shook his head, and helplessly stepped forward to pull him up, intending to send him to the guards The soldiers and generals of the emperor stretched out their hands to copy the back but touched the wet spot. The soldier groaned in a coma.

Zhao Junsheng noticed something strange, turned the man over to have a look, and saw that there was blood continuously flowing out between the nail leaves on the man's back.

His complexion changed, and he thought to himself: "Could it be... this person is an infiltrated assassin? Wasn't the assassin hacked to death by Tuoba Tao? Who is this person?"

Zhao Junsheng saw the sword lying next to him. This is not the sword of a general in the army. The blade is thin and sharp. Neither the generals of the Northern Wei Dynasty nor the soldiers in the army are equipped with swords, but only the generals of the Liu Song Dynasty in the Southern Dynasty wore swords. Thin and sharp long swords are only available to warriors who have wandered around the rivers and lakes, and the identity of this person is ready to be revealed - an assassin!

Zhao Junsheng peeled off the man's armor and looked at his chest. The clothes inside the armor were the right lapel. This is the most obvious feature of Hanfu. This is a Han assassin.

"What the hell, why am I so unlucky!" Zhao Junsheng cursed secretly, picked up the long sword, carried the man on his back again, and quickly left the flower garden.

In the small room next to the back kitchen, Zhao Junsheng closed the door and bolted the door. He put the man on the bed and let him lie on his stomach. He took off his armor and clothes to expose his back. A wound appeared on his right rib.

It was a knife wound with the point of the knife pierced in, and the edge of the knife was as long as a finger. Zhao Junsheng checked it. After the knife penetrated, it seemed that it was stuck on three ribs. The middle rib was cut off, and the ribs on both sides were cut in half.

"It looks like the right lung was stabbed, so it must still be bleeding. I'm not a surgeon, so I can only give you a few stitches. Whether you can survive depends on your own destiny!"

As Zhao Junsheng said, he found a clean cloth and brought a jug of wine. He poured some wine on the wound for disinfection. As soon as the wine was poured, the man was stimulated soberly: "Hiss——"

Zhao Junsheng held him down: "Don't move, I'm treating your wound!"

The man hesitated and stopped struggling.

Zhao Junsheng cleaned the wound and the surrounding blood with a soft cloth dipped in wine, and the pain caused cold sweat to break out on the assassin's forehead.

"This knife stabbed your right lung. I guess the lung lobe is still bleeding. It is a miracle that you can persist. I can't guarantee that you can be cured. Whether you can survive depends on your luck!"

While talking, Zhao Junsheng took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, poured out a few pills, crushed them into powder in the palm of his hand and sprinkled them on the wound. The assassin's whole body trembled again. Obviously, the medicine was more irritating.

"This pill has never been used since it was made. I kept it for myself. I didn't expect it to be used on you, an assassin!"

The bleeding seemed to have stopped.

Next, Zhao Junsheng took out an embroidery needle and thread to sew up the wound one by one. The pain made the assassin's forehead drip with sweat, but he gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Sprinkle some powder on the wound again and wrap it with a clean cloth.

Zhao Junsheng poured out a few more pills and handed them to the assassin; "Here, just drink it with wine, for internal injuries, if you can stop your right lung bleeding, you have hope of living!"

The assassin took the pill and threw it into his mouth, took a sip of the wine and swallowed it, looked at Zhao Junsheng and asked, "Why didn't you kill me? Didn't you hand me over to the barbarian? Why did you save me?"

Zhao Junsheng sighed: "I didn't want to be nosy at first, I wanted to leave when I saw you fell to the ground, but your sword and your clothes told me that you were a Han, and my grandfather was always in my ears when he was alive. While nagging, saying that Han people don’t kill Han people, if I ignore you, you will definitely die, doesn’t this mean killing you indirectly? So I can only admit that I am unlucky!”

The assassin was silent for a long time before he opened his mouth and said: "My father must be a righteous man! Your Excellency's kindness in saving your life, Lu Xuanbo will never forget it!"

Zhao Junsheng waved his hand: "It's useless to say these things now. By the way, I heard that the assassin was killed by the emperor. Aren't you living well? What's going on?"

"What? My apprentice is dead?"

Zhao Junsheng suddenly realized: "So there are two of you, and the one who died is your apprentice!"

Lu Xuanbo lost too much blood and his spirit was very poor. He also heard that his apprentice had died, so he was very depressed, and his voice was very low, and he seemed a little out of breath.

"You're right! The assassination on the street was just a test of the guards around the barbarian chieftain, and provided conditions for us to join him. On the way to reinforce the soldiers and horses, my apprentice and I killed two escorts." Pawns, put on

They took off their armor and mixed with the escorting soldiers and horses, and then followed them into the palace.But the guards around the barbarian chief are all familiar faces. The appearance of our two unfamiliar faces will definitely arouse suspicion. I was on the same level, and I was too eager. During the assassination, I was injured by a sneak attack from behind and had to give up halfway. After I escaped, I went to find the disciple who supported me. Unexpectedly, he knocked me out, and I went to assassinate myself secretly Barbarian..."

"The man is dead, sorry!" Zhao Junsheng comforted him, got up and said, "Now the emperor and everyone must think that the assassin is dead, and you are safe for the time being. Take a good rest, stay here and don't run around. Otherwise, I will be implicated by you, and I will personally bring you food and drink every day, and after a few days the wind has passed, and if your injury does not worsen, I will find a way to send you out!"

Chapter 93 You Are Unjust!

Tuoba Tao was furious when the assassin pretended to be the bodyguard of the escort, and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of the bodyguard and all the personnel in the palace.

The interrogation was carried out overnight in the palace. Everyone in the palace was woken up and assembled in the courtyard for the Shangguan to identify their identities. At the same time, a large number of soldiers began to search all the houses in the palace. Zhao Junsheng escaped the search by placing Lu Xuanbo on the beam. , regained a life.

"Your Majesty, I have sent someone to thoroughly check inside and outside the palace, and no suspicious person was found!" Zong Tai reported to Tuoba Tao.

Tuoba Tao heaved a sigh of relief, the assassin actually sneaked into his side to assassinate, it makes people feel shuddering to think about it, now that there is no problem found inside and outside the palace, it means that the assassin killed by him is the last assassin, and with the palace The lack of one person identified by the owner of the shop on the opposite side is consistent.

Tuoba Tao nodded, and asked: "Okay, after making a fuss in the middle of the night, the accompanying ministers and soldiers are all tired, let them all go down to rest. By the way, let the kitchen have dinner early tomorrow morning!"

"Observe the order! Your Majesty should also rest earlier, this old servant will leave!"

Zong Tai withdrew from the emperor's bedroom, and when he came outside, his relaxed expression just now disappeared, his white eyebrows were furrowed, his face showed doubts, and he came to the room where the assassin's body was placed.

Two soldiers standing guard in front of the door opened the door for him, and one soldier led him into the room with a lantern. There was a door panel on two benches, and the assassin's body was placed on the door panel. It was covered with a white cloth.

Zong Tai lifted the white cloth, the face of the corpse was not unfamiliar to him, this assassin was very young, but it was rare for such a young man to have such superb swordsmanship, this was the first time he had encountered it.

After taking off the armor from the body, Zong Tai saw the clothes on the assassin, it was a Han!Judging from the clothes and hair style, the Han people wear clothes on the right side, but today's barbarians mostly wear the left side. This is a matter of living habits.When sewing a garment, the position of the tie on the garment will be shown.

The so-called right lapel is to cover the skirt to the right. This right refers to the wearer himself, not the right viewed by other people's eyes.

Then there is the hair style. The assassin has a bun on his head, which is a typical hair style characteristic of Han people.Although the Northern Wei Dynasty had been established for many years, most of the barbarians in the country kept their own hairstyles. Even the hairstyles of men from other countries also have their own national characteristics, which are different from the Han people.

Although it can be judged that the assassin is a Han Chinese, it is still impossible to know the opponent's camp just from these.

Zong Tai turned the corpse over to check, "I remember clearly stabbing him with a knife in the back, why is there no wound on his back, could it be that the knife was blocked by the armor?"

Zong Tai walked out of the morgue with doubts. He was not sure if there were other assassins. In his opinion, there was a difference between the two assassinations, but he only had doubts, but he could not find other flaws. Whether there are other assassins before, he didn't want to make too much noise. If there is another large-scale search, he may cause panic and complaints from all over the world. When the time comes, the ministers will be impeached, and he can't help it.

"It seems that we can only step up our guard secretly!" Zong Tai made a decision in his heart.

After several days of peace, Zhao Junsheng left Lu Xuanbo in the small room next to the back kitchen to recover from his injuries, and even if he went out, he would lock the door.

In the past few days, Tuoba Tao did not affect his itinerary because of the assassination incident. He first inspected the town garrison barracks outside Suiyang City, inspected the town garrison, and then inspected the pass near Suiyang City, sometimes with Wan Yutong went hunting, and everything seemed calm.

After five days, Zhao Junsheng saw that Lu Xuanbo's injury showed no signs of inflammation, he became much more energetic, and his face turned red. It seemed that the healing medicine was very effective in external application and internal administration, so he said to Lu Xuanbo: " Brother, judging from the situation in the past few days, your injury should be slowly recovering, but it is impossible to recover in a short period of time. Although it is safe for you to hide here, this is also a real dragon's pool and tiger's den! So , I think it is better to send you out, you are ready, maybe this afternoon or tomorrow, I will find a way to get you away!"

Lu Xuanbo clasped his fists and said, "I know that I will stay here

It brought a huge crisis to Brother Zhao. Once I was discovered, Brother Zhao's family would be wiped out.Since I have received brother Zhao's life-saving grace, how can I get brother Zhao involved in crisis again?Brother Zhao, just rest assured, I won't mess around! "

"You are considerate, haha, I like it, take your time and rest!" Zhao Junsheng smiled and patted Lu Xuanbo on the shoulder and walked out, leaving Lu Xuanbo grinning with pain from his wound.

Zhao Junsheng came out of the room, thinking about how to get Lu Xuanbo out. It is not easy to get such a big living person out of the palace. cooking.

He walked to a gazebo and was about to sit down, but saw a carriage stopped not far away, "Hey, isn't that Wan Yutong's carriage?"

Wan Yutong stepped down from the carriage wearing a smart suit. This set of chivalrous women's costume was bought from his shop. He was wearing a pair of riding pants underneath, which highlighted his exquisite figure, which easily made people feel wronged. thought.

Zhao Junsheng turned his head, walked over and raised his hand to say hello: "Miss Wan!"

Wan Yutong turned his head and smiled when he heard the voice, "Zhao Junsheng, what a coincidence!"

"It's quite a coincidence!" Zhao Junsheng smiled and asked, "Could it be that you are doing some outdoor activities today?"

"Outdoor activities? Oh, yes, Brother Foli asked me to go hunting outside the city!"
