Tibet

King Li Shi of Lu was already in his early twenties. He gradually grew up from an ignorant boy to a shrewd and wise young prince. Perhaps because of his youth, Li Shi was quite energetic and courageous, and he dared to speak out. He publicly criticized the eunuchs for causing harm to the country more than once, winning over the courtiers. He was widely loved by people and regarded as the successor of the Tang Dynasty.

But at the same time, I am deeply worried about him. He is so openly hostile to the Eunuch Party. How can the Eunton Group let him go? How could he be allowed to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor?

His mother Shen was also very worried about his safety and advised him more than once to keep a low profile and be patient so as not to offend the eunuchs.

But Li Shi had his own ideas. He believed that the more high-profile he was, the eunuch group would not dare to kill him, and it would allow him to win more support from officials.

Li Shi's logic was not unreasonable. Although the eunuch group hated him deeply, they did not dare to touch him easily, lest they be accused of assassinating the emperor's grandson.

Li Shi's Xinlu Prince's Mansion is located in Guandefang, and Tianjie is just out of Guandefang. He goes into the palace to pay respects to his grandfather every three days. This has been the case for several years, rain or shine.

At the same moment when Li Ye was having dinner with his parents in the military camp, Li Shi also got on the carriage and headed for the palace under the strict protection of two hundred horse guards.

They had just moved to Luoyang not long ago and were not very familiar with the surrounding environment, but the guards were still very careful and paid attention to every move around them.

As soon as the carriage arrived at the gate of the square, suddenly more than a dozen crossbow arrows were fired at the carriage from all directions. They were all heavy crossbows and were extremely powerful. They instantly shot down a dozen cavalrymen and two draft horses around the carriage, followed closely by a dozen black crossbows. People in clothes came from all directions, and the leader of the guards shouted: "Protect Your Highness!"

The guards shrank one after another, protecting themselves around the carriage, and fought fiercely with the men in black who rushed towards them.

At this moment, a man in black suddenly emerged from the soil under the carriage, holding a sword and stabbing at the bottom of the carriage. The sword was extremely sharp and pierced the bottom of the carriage. Li Shi could not dodge and stabbed him with the sword. Li Shi's calf, Li Shi screamed and fell into the carriage.

The man in black clothes jumped out from under the carriage and shouted, "Succeed, pull!"

The man in black instantly ran away in all directions. The guards did not dare to pursue him and still closely protected the carriage. The leader of the guards opened the door and took a closer look. He saw His Highness Li Shi lying in the carriage. His calf was stabbed and he was bleeding profusely. Shockingly, what was shed was black blood.

"The sword is poisonous!"

The leader of the guards shouted, and everyone's hearts sank into the abyss.

Li Shi was sent back to the palace for emergency treatment. News of King Lu's assassination reached the palace. Emperor Li Heng was furious and ordered the Meihua Guard and Jinwu Guard to block the entire city to prevent the assassin from escaping. Dali Temple, the Ministry of Punishment, and the Dongdu Prefecture all sent elite troops Investigate the case.

More than a dozen imperial doctors also rushed to Prince Lu's Mansion to treat Li Shi urgently.

At night, Emperor Li Heng rushed to Prince Lu's Mansion in person to visit the emperor's eldest grandson. Li Shi's mother, Shen, could not bear the blow and fainted and fell. The imperial doctor was also treating her.

Not long after, the chief physician Wang Shuming was brought to the emperor Li Heng. Li Heng asked in a trembling voice: "How is the emperor's eldest grandson doing?"

Although Li Heng didn't like this eldest grandson very much, he just didn't want him to be his heir to the throne. But in terms of blood, this was his grandson after all, his eldest grandson. How could he not care?

Wang Shuming, the imperial doctor, said with a sad face: "There is a strong poison in the sword. Although we have tried our best to suppress the poison, it was not effective. The emperor's grandson completely fainted and his whole body turned black.

"Can it be saved?"

Wang Shuming shook his head, "I'm afraid I won't survive tonight."

Li Heng suddenly became anxious, "Is there no way at all? Is there no cure in the world?"

"Your Majesty, I have tried my best, but I really can't think of any other way."

Li Heng felt his eyes go dark and almost fainted.

A hand behind him quickly held him up, and a deep voice said: "Your Majesty, maybe I know a way!"

When Li Heng turned around, it was his personal guard commander Pei Min. He quickly grabbed Pei Min and said, "What can General Pei do?"

"Your Majesty, Liefeng spent thirty years exhausting all kinds of precious medicinal materials to prepare a very miraculous elixir called Zhuque Dan. It is divided into two types: small elixir and big elixir. The big elixir has the effect of bringing the dead back to life. It can detoxify hundreds of poisons."

Li Heng asked anxiously: "Where is the elixir?"

"Liefeng gave all the elixirs to King Qi!"

Wang Shuming suddenly said: "Yes! General Pei is talking about King Qi's life-saving pill. It is said to be very magical and very rare. I heard that King Qi only has a few pills left."

Li Heng took out a gold medal and handed it to Pei Min, "I also know that General Pei is the uncle of King Qi. I believe that he must have a pill with him. I beg General Pei to go to Shendu Garden and ask for a pill for me no matter what." When the medicine comes back, I owe him a favor."

Pei Min nodded, "Weichen is going now!"

He swept away and disappeared like a shadow.

In the military camp, Li Ye and his parents finished dinner and were ready to send them back to the city.

As soon as Pei Sanniang and Li Dai boarded the carriage, they heard a commotion in front of them and saw a black shadow rushing towards them like wind and lightning. The soldiers blocked it one after another, but they could not stop it. In an instant, they were dozens of steps away from Li Ye.

Li Ye picked up a spear and went forward. He shouted loudly, and the spear instantly turned into a rain of spears, blocking all the way forward for the man in black.

"What an amazing connection, Ah Ye, it's me!"

The man in black stopped, and Li Ye recognized him immediately, "Uncle, why is it you?"

As soon as the spear was withdrawn, Pei Min took a breath from the airtight rain of spears, raised his thumbs and praised: "You have actually mastered the most profound and profound skills of Zhuque Kung Fu. Lie Feng didn't master it back then!"

Li Ye's move just now is inextricably linked. It looks a bit similar to the heavy rain pear blossom in the marksmanship, but the two are completely different. The heavy rain pear blossom in the marksmanship is a false move, just countless gun shadows to disrupt the enemy's line of sight. There's actually only one shot.

But all the clues are real. It evolved from the countless flows of water in the river. Every rain of spears contains a force that can kill the enemy. At that moment, Li Ye actually Hundreds of spears were thrust out.

This spear completely integrates the power of nature and can be called the pinnacle of Suzaku's mental skills.

"Is there something urgent, uncle?"

Li Ye could see that Pei Min was anxious, otherwise he would not have forced his way into the military camp.

Pei Min sighed, "King Lu was assassinated and is in critical danger. The poison has spread. The imperial doctor said he can't survive the night. The emperor asks you for a pill of Zhuque Dan."

At this time, Pei Sanniang and Li Dai also came over. Pei Sanniang said a little reproachfully: "How can the second brother forcefully break into the military camp? If thousands of arrows are fired at once, you will definitely die!"

Pei Min smiled bitterly and said, "Sanniang is right, but the situation is too critical and I really can't take care of it."

Li Dai said to his son: "King Lu is the prince's eldest son Li Shi. He was in danger in Wuting River when he was a child. You saved his life!"

Li Ye nodded, took out a small bottle from his arms and handed it to Pei Min, "I only brought one pill this time!"

Pei Min took the bottle and smelled it, and was very happy. It was Zhuque Dan. Now King Lu was saved.

He cupped his fists and saluted, "The emperor said that he owes you a favor!"

Li Ye smiled lightly and said, "Can uncle use it?"

Pei Min smiled, "It seems I taught you how to use it!"

"I just remind my uncle that using Jiannan to burn spring has the best effect!"

"I see!"

Pei Min saluted Li Dai and his cousin again, turned around and flew away as fast as a shadow.

Li Dai watched Pei Min go away and said worriedly: "King Lu was assassinated, and the eunuchs finally took action!"
