Chapter 110: A shot of revenge!
Prince Ji Zhao Yuanfen took a few dandy young men from wealthy and powerful families to the racecourse in the south of the city to play.
He had gauze wrapped around the back of his right hand and was riding on a horse, flirting with a few playboys.
He didn't take the fact that several servants in Luo Mansion were injured yesterday to heart at all.
They were just a few servants. Not to mention crippling them, even if a few of them were killed, what could the Luo family do to the prince?
Pan Lun, the son of Hanguogong Pan Mei, was a pretty boy. Although the Prince of Ji and his brother-in-law, the Prince of Xiang, were at odds, Pan Lun and the Prince of Ji were like-minded and became close friends.
"Your Highness Prince Ji, you were not able to enjoy yourself yesterday, and you were bitten on the back of your hand by that servant from the Luo Mansion. Is it the end of the matter if you just cut his tendons?" Pan Lun said with ill intention.
Even though he and Prince Ji share the same interests and get along well together, in his heart he still prefers his brother-in-law Prince Xiang.
If Prince Ji Zhao Yuanfen could have a fight with Prince Qin Zhao Defang, wouldn't the third prince's brother-in-law be the one who benefits?
Prince Ji smiled sinisterly and cunningly, "I have already vented my anger and cut the tendons of the hands and feet of that ungrateful bastard, making him a cripple.
For the sake of the King of Qin, let’s just let this go.”
I am not a fool who can be used as a gun by others. Even if I continue to cause trouble for Luo Mansion, it is because of the cash cows in those workshops that make people jealous and greedy.
Lu Qi, the son of the political councilor Lu Duosun, flattered His Royal Highness Prince Ji, saying, "Your Highness, you are broad-minded, kind and generous.
He was bitten by a dog slave, but he still survived."
However, Prince Ji curled his lips in disdain!
"This king is not a magnanimous and merciful person. What this king has always advocated is revenge!
Cut the tendons of that slave's hands and feet, and let him be paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life. This will be much more satisfying than taking his life!"
After hearing this, Lu Qi couldn't help but shudder when he imagined how it would feel like for a young and strong man to become a useless person paralyzed in bed for the rest of his life, unable to move his limbs, and having to rely on others to take care of him for eating, drinking, and urinating!
No wonder his father always told him that Prince Ji was the most sinister and vicious prince, with a perverse and tyrannical temperament, and that he should not get too far or too close to Prince Ji.
Zhao Yuanfen, along with a few of his close friends and more than fifty guards, came to the racecourse run by the Shi family in the south of the city.
The Shi family was also a top-level powerful family, but when Emperor Taizu gave up military power with a toast, the head of the family, Shi Shouxin, was a man of great insight and chose to retreat from the turmoil. He took the lead in handing over military power, responded to Emperor Taizu's policy of enriching the country through business, turned to the business community, and became an extremely wealthy and powerful family with residual power.
Although the Shi family shifted their focus to business and wealth, their former power and network of connections made them a distinguished family that no one in the capital dared to mess with.
Under the courteous yet respectful reception of the manager of Shijia Horse Farm, Prince Ji and others arrived at the racecourse.
Several people galloped on horseback and raced several times in the racecourse, and in the end, of course, His Royal Highness Prince Ji came out on top.
Even though the horses were fine and the riding skills were superb, the playboys knew that they were only there to have fun with Prince Ji and the limelight and glory could only be left to His Royal Highness Prince Ji.
Once again, it was the BMW and the riding skills that crushed everyone else. Prince Ji proudly pulled the reins and jumped off the horse.
: "Let's have lunch here before going back to the city!"
The stable manager came up with a smile, took the reins from Prince Ji's hand politely, and ordered his men to take the prince and others to the VIP room.
The table was filled with delicious food and wine. Prince Ji was eating happily and competing in poetry and drinking with a few playboys. His face turned red from drinking.
After eating and drinking, he saw that the boy pouring tea and water in front of him was handsome, and he could not suppress his lust, so he pulled the boy to the inner room and indulged in lust in broad daylight.
Pan Lun, Lu Qi and others were drinking tea and chatting in the hall while waiting patiently. It took more than an hour to return to the city. …
Luo Li took Hong Gu in an ordinary carriage and headed for the Shizipo Restaurant ten miles south of the city.
It was past dinner time, and at the intersection, in a restaurant close to the main road, there were only a few diners left.
Luo Li and Hong Gu got off the carriage from a distance and told the shadow guard Mo Lei, who was disguised as the coachman, "You stay here and wait for us to come."
"Hong Gu, let's go around to the back of the restaurant."
After receiving the order, Morey drove the carriage into the woods behind.
Hong Gu followed the young lady, both of them were wearing neat tight clothes. Under the cover of the trees on the roadside, they concealed their figures and quietly approached the restaurant.
Luo Li lowered her voice and said, "Hong Gu, carry me to the roof of the restaurant."
Hong Gu bent down and carried the young lady on her back. She used her lightness skills to jump up, tapped the high wall with her toes twice, and then flew to the roof of the three-story building.
After being put down, Luo Li looked around and found a shooting point with a good view and where she could hide her body.
Hong Gu was surprised to see the young lady take off the long bag on her back and pull out a long weapon of peculiar style that glowed with a dark glow.
Luo Li lay on the shooting position and adjusted the shooting angle in the scope.
He turned his head and looked at the surprised and dazed Hong Gu beside him, and smiled proudly, "Hong Gu, today I will show you what the magical skill of shooting through the air from a thousand steps is!"
Hong Gu suppressed her shock and just nodded silently. …
Hiding in the woods by the roadside with six shadow guards and three captives, Mo Yan felt a little anxious and nervous.
The princess was determined to take revenge herself, so he had no choice but to cooperate.
But, please don't make any mistakes!
Luo Li was getting a little impatient waiting, so she took out the oil-paper bag from her arms, took out some meat jerky and handed it to Hong Gu, then she started eating happily. …
Prince Ji rode a fine BMW horse, brought along a few of his friends, and, surrounded by more than fifty guards, arrived at a long slope.
After crossing this long slope, you will reach the Shizipo Restaurant, ten miles away from the capital.
Just as the large group of people climbed over the dirt slope, seven or eight men in black, wearing black scarves and masks, suddenly rushed out from the woods on the side of the road.
A round of crossbow arrows came flying overhead, and a dozen guards who were leading the way in front fell off their horses with screams.
"There is an assassin! Protect His Royal Highness Prince Ji!..."
Prince Ji Zhao Yuanfen was so frightened that he sobered up instantly.
"Quick! Protect this king and rush over!"
Zhao Yuanfen's mind was very clear.
There is a high slope behind us. If we encounter an assassin here, we cannot turn around and retreat, nor can we rush into the woods on the side of the road. Who knows how many ambushes and traps are waiting there.
I could only rush forward desperately and escape along this road.
The guards and several skilled assassins fought desperately, trying to carve a bloody path to protect the prince's escape.
Luo Li held the rifle and took a deep breath.
There are only six bullets left in the rifle's magazine. Each one is extremely precious. Don't waste any.
When the face of King Ji, who was more than 500 steps away, was located at the cross in the sight, Luo Li pulled the trigger steadily!
Mo Yan, who was charging towards King Ji, was surprised to see a bloody hole on King Ji's forehead on horseback, with blood flowing down from the hole!
Prince Ji's eyes were filled with unbelievable shock and fear! ... He staggered and fell off his horse.
"Your Majesty!..."
"Your Highness Prince Ji!..."
Pan Lun, Lu Qi and the guards of Prince Ji's Mansion were so frightened that they were scared out of their wits!
"Retreat!" Luo Li put away his rifle and said decisively.
Hong Gu bent down, picked up the young lady on her back, jumped off the roof quickly, and under the cover of the trees on the side of the road, ran quickly towards the carriage in the distance.
Mo Yan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "It's done! Retreat!"
As the guards of Prince Ji were fighting desperately and fearfully, the seven assassins abandoned the bodies of their three companions and quickly retreated into the woods beside the road.
Mo Yan ordered his men, "After you retreat, escort the princess back to the city!"
There were still more than twenty guards left in Prince Ji's mansion. When they saw the prince being killed by an assassin, they were terrified and cried out in grief!
His Royal Highness Prince Ji died in front of their eyes, and those who failed to protect him effectively would all be beheaded.
Pan Lun, Lu Qi and a few other young dandies were so frightened that they stood there on their horses, dumbfounded!
Finally, it was the braver Lu Qi who came to his senses first. With a trembling voice and shaking legs, he said, "Quickly send His Royal Highness Prince Ji back to the city and let the imperial physician see if there is any hope of saving him."
A guard picked up Prince Ji's body, jumped on his horse, and galloped away with all his might!
The crowd didn't care about their companions' bodies, but they didn't forget to take the bodies of the three assassins with them. They followed closely and rushed towards the city gate!
The restaurant owner, his waiters and more than a dozen diners all looked out the window after hearing the noise and saw clearly the scene of the assassination of the prince in the distance.
At this moment, everyone was trembling with fear.
The diners quickly slipped out of the restaurant and trotted away in the direction away from the battlefield. Passersby who happened to come here also turned around and ran back.
Mo Yan, who was hiding in the dark, saw that there was no one around the battlefield. He took off his mask, took off his clothes and put them on inside out. His black tights instantly turned yellow.
Mo Yan dressed up as a passerby who was in a hurry and didn't know what happened ahead, and walked quickly towards the battlefield.
When he arrived at the place where more than thirty corpses were lying, Mo Yan pretended to be a frightened passerby, jumping past the corpses.
His eyes searched the ground where Prince Ji fell off his horse, and a golden, shiny object came into his sight.
Mo Yan jumped over, raised his toes, grasped the strange thing in his hand, and immediately jumped away. This thing must be delivered to the prince immediately!
