"Bring these people back to the barracks for me!"
The battle didn't last for long. Although the overall strength of the 50 plus people that Su Wo Yi sent was slightly higher than the people sent by Big Brother King on the mountain back, the other side had the Dragon-Bearded Guest, a great expert with abnormal strength. Not to mention the 50 experts that Su Wo Yi sent, even if he sent 100 experts, it would still be useless ~!
As for Li Xiaogong's side, he had already cut the tendons of the black-robed assassin and ordered Yoko Ono. He didn't even bring his guards to the palace, so he could only order Yoko Ono. He couldn't order the Bearded Guest, right?
"Ah? Your Highness, please hand these assassins over to His Majesty. His Majesty will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation! "
Yoko Ono bowed and said pitifully.
Li Xiaogong wiped the blood-stained sword, then lightly glanced at Yoko Ono and said: "This matter might even be related to your queen. How can this king hand them over to the palace? If you don't want to die, then do as this king says ~!"
"Your Highness!"
At this moment, a shout came from the corner of the street. Immediately after, the mountain back's eldest brother rode a horse and rushed over with a group of guards!
"Your Highness, His Majesty knew that you were attacked in the city and was deeply shocked. His Majesty sent me to express his apologies and condolences. He also asked me to investigate the culprit at all costs! Your Highness, please hand these assassins over to me. I guarantee with my head that I will definitely find the culprit! "
The Mountain Back Big Brother King jumped off his warhorse and then cupped his fists towards Li Xiaogong with a sincere expression.
Li Xiaogong said expressionlessly, "Impossible! These people's identities are unknown. Furthermore, you and the Wo Nation's Queen might be related to them. Before I figure it out, I will definitely not hand these people over! The more than ten thousand soldiers outside the city will also not agree to hand these people over to you! "
The mountain back's eldest brother's expression froze. He understood the meaning behind Li Xiaogong's words. It was impossible for him to take these people away today. Otherwise, what awaited the Wo Nation would be an all-out war with the Tang Empire. He couldn't bear the responsibility!
"Your Highness, these assassins definitely have nothing to do with me or His Majesty. You shouldn't suspect us!"
However, seeing that Li Xiaogong was not moved at all, he said, "How about this, Your Highness, you leave a few alive, and I will interrogate them overnight. As for the rest of the assassins, you can take them away and deal with them as you wish. If we investigate together, it will be faster than if you investigate alone, don't you think so?"
Li Xiaogong thought about it. It was indeed inappropriate for the imperial court's fleet to stay in Japan for long, so he nodded and said, "Okay! Then Benwang will believe you once more ~! A total of 51 assassins came tonight. 28 of them were hacked to death and 15 committed suicide by poison. There are only 8 left. Other than the one under my feet, you can choose any two of them ~! Hurry up! "
The Big Brother King glanced at the black-robed assassin at Li Xiaogong's feet. He helplessly cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Your Highness!"
A moment later, Li Xiaogong and the bearded man led six assassins out of the city, while the mountain back elder brother led the remaining two assassins back to the palace. It looked like the lights of the palace tonight would be lit until tomorrow.
…
The next day, at Yanhuang College.
It was just dawn, and the wake-up bell had already rung. The students who were immersed in their dreams had no choice but to get up even if they didn't want to!
"Oh! Do I have to get up so early? I'm so sleepy ~! "
Li Tai rolled over and stuck out his fat butt as he grumbled unwillingly.
Although the bed in the student dormitory was a hard bed, Li Tai now felt that this hard bed was much more comfortable than the high bed and soft pillows in his prince's residence. If possible, he wanted to lie on it and sleep like this forever.
"Mm! I also feel so f * cking sleepy today! "
Cheng Chumo sat up, rubbed his face twice, and then muttered.
"F * ck! It's all your fault. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been punished to stand so late last night ~! "
Li Tai lifted the quilt angrily and sat up to complain.
"Gugu ~!"
Who knew that as soon as he sat down, his stomach would immediately protest. "F * ck, I'm so hungry ~! I still have to run later. Oh my god, what should I do? Why can't I have breakfast before running? The academy's system is too unreasonable ~! "
For the past two days, the little fatty hadn't eaten any meat. Those vegetables and whatnot weren't enough to satisfy his hunger at all. In addition, he had been punished to stand for so long last night and used up so much of his physical strength. It would be strange if he wasn't hungry in the morning!
"Qingque, it's not good to exercise after eating. Let's get up quickly and wash up! Otherwise, we'll be punished again if we're late ~! "
Li Chengqian, who was sleeping on the upper bunk, leaned on the bed railing and said.
"Mm, I'll get up now!"
…
"One two one, one two one, one two three four, one, two, three, four ~!"
Yanhuang College was located at the peak of the Cloud Mountain. There were no peddlers or pawns who woke up early, nor were there noisy pedestrians or merchants. In the early morning, there were only the neat and loud slogans of the students running here.
"Mm, compared to the messy team at the beginning, they're starting to look more like it now ~!"
Li Zexuan had been waking up early recently. Firstly, he often came to the academy to check on the situation. Secondly, he had been waking up early to practice martial arts recently. He had been practicing the Lonely Wind Swordsmanship that Dugu Xin had taught him last time. Because he didn't deliberately pursue progress, he had only practiced to the third level until now. There were a total of nine levels, and Dugu Xin had already reached the seventh level.
Moreover, he found that this swordsmanship was similar to many other swordsmanship. The further one progressed, the harder it was to practice. Not only did it require a deep understanding of martial arts, but it also required some personal understanding. The two complemented each other, and only then could success come naturally. This was also the reason why Li Zexuan wasn't in a hurry to improve. More haste, less speed. As a Taoist disciple, of course he understood the principle of letting nature take its course.
"Hehe ~! I heard that Zhijie will be here in the afternoon, and tomorrow is the day off. It seems that these students have been having a hard time recently ~! "
Qin Qiong stood beside Li Zexuan and said with a smile.
Li Zexuan was stunned. Cheng Yaojin had said that she would come to the academy to be a temporary instructor when she had time. It had been so long, and if Qin Qiong hadn't suddenly mentioned it today, he would have forgotten. Thinking about Cheng Yaojin's usual attitude, Li Zexuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha ~! Last night, these little rascals were full of energy and didn't sleep in the middle of the night. This means that the amount of training is still too little. Uncle Cheng is here to give them a little challenge ~! "
Qin Qiong twirled his beard and smiled. "Xiao Xuan, you have to watch from the side. Don't let Zhijie cause any trouble ~!"
Li Zexuan quickly waved his hand and said, "Uncle Qin, it's better for you to watch over them! I still have some other things to do these two days, so I'll leave them to you guys ~! "
Qin Qiong was speechless in the face of this lazy guy.
