Assassin Liu Min (I)
On this day, Jin Xuan brought Madam Zhurong and Sun Shangxiang to the research institute. The war was imminent, and Jin Xuan wanted to see the latest research results of the research institute. After all, in this era of cold weapons, technology often represented the lives of soldiers.
The research institute had recruited some students who had just graduated from Changsha University. These students were the successors of the Golden Whirlpool Theory and were also outstanding talents suitable for research work. What they lacked was the experience and professional skills of skilled craftsmen. In time, the combination of these talents and skilled craftsmen would definitely produce revolutionary discoveries.
During this period of time, the Research Institute had made another breakthrough in the research of armor and steel. In the era of cold weapons, armor and weapons were the key to life and death. There was a limited number of new products, and they could only be distributed to generals above the rank of deputy general.
What made Madam Zhurong and Sun Shangxiang jump with joy was the light armor designed by the research institute for them. The steel plates were reasonably combined together, and the outer cover was red leather armor, which looked beautiful. The two of them could not wait to change into their new armor, causing Jin Xuan's eyes to light up.
The armor that was specially made for Jin Xuan was black because Jin Xuan liked black. The three of them put on their new armor and walked around the research institute with a smile. Jin Xuan encouraged the people working here and expressed his opinions on some research.
Jin Xuan's opinion was a kind of authority here, because since the establishment of the research institute, Jin Xuan's ingenious ideas had been verified before and after. Some professional craftsmen were also sincerely convinced by Jin Xuan. The rookies were even more delighted to see their legendary lord, because in the legends, their lord himself was a legend, a legend.
Two female generals came out of the research institute and surrounded Jin Xuan. They were in a good mood today. The female guards were not allowed to enter the research institute. The research institute was one of the places with the strictest security measures. Anyone who entered and exited the research institute had to hold a number plate issued by Zhuge Liang or a warrant issued by Jin Xuan.
The group of people did not ride horses. Jin Xuan had not walked on this bustling street for a long time, and the beautiful women in the same group had a common hobby-shopping. The pedestrians on the street bowed respectfully to Jin Xuan, who had provided them with a safe and prosperous life. This was what the common people recognized. What they cared about was not who the emperor was or who the prefect was. What they cared about most was whether they could be safe and whether they could have enough food and clothing.
Jin Xuan and the passers-by politely waved their hands, and the people on the street gradually gathered around. Although they lived in the same city as Jin Xuan, there were not many opportunities to come into contact with Jin Xuan at such a close distance.
The crowd was singing praises of Jin Xuan. Suddenly, a delicate shout broke the harmony. A masked woman in black stabbed at Jin Xuan with a sword. The location, timing, and route of the assassin's attack showed that the woman was a highly professional assassin.
Before the guards could react, Jin Xuanwu pulled out his sword and blocked the attack with his scabbard. Madam Zhurong and Sun Shangxiang took this opportunity to draw their swords and rush forward. The female guards also quickly reacted and formed a circle. They could not determine the number of assassins.
The commoners became chaotic and quickly dispersed. Some of the simple commoners were afraid but did not leave. They wanted to see if they could help their lord. They knew that they could only watch from afar. After all, they could not help much, and the female guards did not allow them to get close.
The female guards were well-trained, and several of them immediately seized the high ground nearby. One of the guards had already spurred his horse to the General's Mansion to get help, while the rest of the guards were half armed with knives and half armed with knives.
Obviously, the assassin couldn't resist the combined attacks of Madam Zhurong and Sun Shangxiang. After a few exchanges, he was suppressed by the two female generals and couldn't fight back. Jin Xuan also made a move at this time. He was caught off guard and suffered a sneak attack, which made him very angry.
The assassin's escape route had been blocked by the guards, and Jin Xuan's addition made the assassin even more powerless to fight back. Jin Xuan's sword sent the assassin's sword flying. After all, his arm strength was much stronger than the assassin's. When the assassin lost his sword, Madam Zhurong and Sun Shangxiang's swords moved one after the other, forcing the assassin to be unable to move.
Jin Xuan waved his hand, and the female guards stepped forward to tie the assassin up. At this moment, Dian Wei arrived on a fast horse. He had not even had time to put on his armor. This was a loyal subordinate. His disheveled appearance and relieved expression made Jin Xuan very moved.
A group of people escorted the female assassin to the Imperial Residence. The group was silent all the way and seemed very depressed. Jin Xuan was in a bad mood and his face was gloomy. No one would be happy to encounter such a thing. Although Madam Zhurong and Sun Shangxiang were hot and unruly, they didn't dare to speak when they saw Jin Xuan's unhappy expression.
After entering the main hall of the mansion, Madam Zhu Rong took off the assassin's mask. The assassin was very delicate, with a slightly dark face and a petite figure. He glared at Jin Xuan with hatred in his eyes. Jin Xuan could not help being stunned when he saw this. Originally, he was furious and wanted to kill one as an example to others, but now, he could not harden his heart no matter what.
"Who are you? Why did you assassinate His Highness?”Dian Wei asked fiercely. He didn't have the heart to show mercy to a woman.
The assassin didn't say anything.
"Are you going to tell me or not?" Dian Wei was enraged. His palm was about to land on the assassin's face.
A hint of fear appeared on the Assassin's face, but he instantly returned to his cold arrogance and deliberately raised his head.
Dian Wei couldn't take it anymore and wanted to give her a hard time.
"Wait." Jin Xuan walked forward and met the assassin's gaze.
The assassin couldn't bear to look at him. He lowered his head and lowered his eyes.
"What enmity does this king have with you?" Jin Xuan said slowly.
"The revenge of killing my father and brother." the assassin said.
"Oh, this is strange. Other than criminals who commit crimes, criminals executed by the state government according to the law, or soldiers meeting on the battlefield and fighting to the death, this king has never killed a good person. What are your father and brother's names? If there is anything wrong, I will help you.”Jin Xuan found it very strange. He had no impression of it. The first thing he thought of was whether the counties under his jurisdiction had accidentally killed good people.
"There's no need to investigate. My father is the former Lingling Prefecture Governor, Liu Du.”the assassin said.
Jin Xuan finally understood that this woman was Liu Du's daughter and Liu Xian's sister.
"The death of your father and brother is an imperial decree of the Imperial Court. What does it have to do with this king?”Jin Xuan asked.
"In order to seize my father and brother's inheritance, you used the imperial edict to kill my father and brother.”the assassin said.
"If you don't believe me, your father and brother will be sentenced to death. The imperial edict is currently in the Imperial Residence.”After Jin Xuan finished speaking, he asked the left and right to retrieve the imperial edict.
Jin Xuan saw that the assassin was speechless. He said,"Your father and brother were killed by the imperial court for stirring up the border affairs." Before the execution, this king had already told your family and sent troops to escort your family and your father and brother's corpses back to their hometown. Who did you hear about this king borrowing the imperial edict?”
The assassin pondered and did not answer. At this moment, the Deputy Prefect arrived with the imperial edict. Jin Xuan showed the imperial edict to the assassin.
After the assassin finished reading the imperial edict, he no longer had the stubborn and arrogant attitude from before, but he still did not speak.
Jin Xuan ordered Sun Shangxiang to bring the female guards to detain the assassin and interrogate him in detail.
At this time, Zhuge Liang, Guan Yu, Zhou Yu and the others heard that Jin Xuan was assassinated and came to visit. Jin Xuan then told the whole story and asked everyone present for advice.
"This woman dared to assassinate my lord," said Dian Wei."I think she should be put to death.”
Guan Yu and the other generals agreed.
"Liu Du is a relative of the royal family," said Zhou Yu."He and Liu Yan are uncles and brothers. Liu Du and his son were ordered to die, but because of the imperial edict, the King of Xichuan did not send anyone to plead for mercy. Now Liu Qi, Liu Yan and others have just surrendered, if this matter is not handled properly, it is easy to cause trouble. Moreover, there must be a reason for the assassin to come. There must be someone controlling it behind the scenes.”
At this time, Sun Shangxiang had already interrogated the assassin. It turned out that the assassin Liu Min was Liu Du's daughter. She had gone out to study and had not returned. When there was a big change in her family, it was too late to rush back. When he returned to his hometown, he was bewitched by Cao Cao's subordinate Jiang Gan halfway, causing Liu Min to think that his father and brother had been killed by Jin Xuan, resulting in hatred. Therefore, he secretly went to Changsha to seek refuge with his uncle Liu Qi and waited for an opportunity to assassinate him. At the end of the confession, it was stated that Liu Qi did not know about this matter. --
