Chapter 140 Instigating Behind the Scenes (35)

"Ah!"

Li Jingji's sword is swift and fierce, with one against three, he still does not lose the wind.

"puff!"

One of them had his arm severed by Jian Gang, and then his throat was cut, exposing flesh and fibers, and he collapsed limply on the ground.

"Damn it, how could the Li family have such a master!"

The people from the Seven Stars Altar came to assassinate, but they had already figured out the details.

Apart from Li Changkong, the Li family has no seventh-rank warriors.

Why does this person have hidden strength to reach the sixth rank.

For a while, the remaining two king kong became more and more difficult to support in front of Li Jingji.

Behind him, the corners of the eyes of the Lord of the Seven Stars Altar twitched, and he covered the severe scar on the broken bone with his hand.

Mission failed!
Li Cezhi had already rushed into the city, so he naturally didn't dare to chase after him.

I could only turn around and see the banks of the moat, still fighting.

Immediately, he slashed at him with a knife and forced Li Jingji away.

"Take the corpse and go!"

The assassination has failed, he dare not fight any more.

This is Longchuan Mansion, the capital of Mingzhou, where Shenwuwei sits in town.

If it continues, they will all die when Shenwuwei arrives.

Nothing could be done, everyone took the corpse of their companions and fled quickly.

Li Jingji didn't go after him.

I can't even catch up with them.

"hiss!"

He put the Qingming sword back into its sheath, and shook his numb arm.

The big man headed by him is obviously a sixth-rank martial artist.

If it weren't for the fact that the target was the eldest brother, surrounded by four people, without the help of his father, he would have died.

I originally thought about leaving home today.

But when something like this happened, Li Jingji naturally wouldn't leave, and turned around to enter the city.

The Wu family in Longchuan Prefecture.

The news of the failed assassination soon arrived.

Listening to his son's narration, Wu Dao looked a little ugly.

"All the powerful fighters from the Seven Stars Altar have come out, but they can't kill a frail scholar?"

He suppressed his anger and asked.

Wu Ming knelt in front of his father, a little panicked: "I heard that Li Cezhi's younger brother was also there at that time, and this person is actually a peak seventh-rank martial artist."

Rank seven warrior?
Wu Dao raised his brows slightly, rather annoyed: "Luo Qingshan, the master of the Seven Stars Altar, is a sixth-rank warrior, and there are three seventh-rank warriors encircling him, so he can't kill them all?"

"This group of dog-like things have eaten the food of the old man for so many years!"

It takes a thousand days to keep an army, and a moment to use it.

When something went wrong, Wu Dao was naturally very annoyed.

But after all, he has been in charge of the head of the family for a long time, and he knows that what he should do now is not to get angry, but to deal with the aftermath.

Suppressing his anger, he told his son: "Let the people in the Seven Star Altar not show their heads in the near future."

"By the way, when the news of Li Cezhi's assassination came out, they found some people to fish in troubled waters, and secretly pointed the assassination at Chen An."

This was a plan he had already thought up.

Before thinking about winning, think about losing first.

He also knows that no matter how foolproof a situation is, there is always the possibility of failure.

And as early as the beginning of the assassination, he had already thought about it, and let Chen An take the blame for this matter.

Chen An is a member of the Zhu family, and the Li family would never dare to investigate and offend him.

If he dared to investigate, it would be better for Wu Daole to let the Li family find their own way of death.

A day later, the Li family.

The news of Li Cezhi's assassination has already become known to everyone.

Li Changqing and Li Changkong, two family elders, came one after another.

Seeing that there was no serious problem, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Damn it, who in this Longchuan mansion dares to commit murder against the head of my Li family!"

Li Changqing's temper was stable, and he frowned in thought at the side, while Li Changkong's fiery temper could no longer sit still.

He beat the case: "Patriarch, don't worry, I will definitely report this matter to Shenwuwei, and investigate to find out."

Li Cezhi didn't speak.

These people are all martial arts masters, when they committed the crime, they had already changed their appearances, and they couldn't recognize their faces at all.

Obviously, they came prepared.

"The Li family. Has there been any feud in recent years?"

Li Cezhi asked seriously.

"Enmity. Speaking of which, most of the families in Longchuan Mansion have enmity and hatred."

Li Changqing smiled wryly.

Between families, as long as they live together in the same place, there will inevitably be conflicts and frictions due to things such as resource distribution, uneven benefits, and even the robbing of the family's business.

However, it is extremely rare to dare to commit crimes in the daytime and assassinate the head of a big family.

"I'm afraid, some people see the young talent of the patriarch, and they are afraid that my Li family will rise up, so they can't sit still!"

His analysis is very accurate, but there is no evidence, there are many families in Longchuan Mansion, and there is no clue to which one.

"Recently, there have been rumors that it was Chen An who did it."

Li Changqing hesitated for a while, but still discussed the information he collected.

"At the poetry meeting, the head of the family took away Chen An's opportunity to become famous, and a grudge arose.

He is a member of the family of the Zhu Kingdom, and he acts without scruples. Many people say that it is possible that he bought the murderer. "

Chen An?

Hearing this, everyone was taken aback for a moment, and then they all fell silent, bowing their heads and not daring to say anything else.

If it was really done by someone from the Zhu family, the Li family really has nothing to do.

Even if the investigation is clear, it is helpless.

You can't run in front of Zhu Guo's family and let them kill and pay for their lives.

With the strength of the Li family, going to wrestle with the behemoth Zhu Guo family is really a bit of a suicide attempt.

"Patriarch, Mr. Xu is here."

Some members of the Li family came to report.

Since the news of Li Cezhi's assassination spread, people came to visit him one after another.

After all, he is just getting rid of Yuan, and the song about drinking in the scholarly biography is on the cusp of the storm.

The news soon became known throughout the city, and many people came to visit and express condolences.

But when those people came over, they just asked a few innocuous words.

Mr Xu is different.

He is a great Confucian in the literary world and a mentor to the imperial party students, with great energy.

If he is willing to help, Zhou Mu can file a case for trial in person, and even Zhu Guo's aristocratic family will be hard to stop.

"Please come in, Mr. Xu."

Li Cezhi quickly opened his mouth and said.

After everyone left, Xu Qingshi rushed into the lobby of the Li family.

He was relieved to see that Li Cezhi was not injured.

"I heard that you were assassinated earlier, but this old man was taken aback."

Master Xu Qing said with concern.

He attached great importance to Li Cezhi.

After all, it was the Imperial Party Jieyuan, and based on his talent, it should be a sure thing to be a Jinshi, and when the palace examination, he might be favored by the emperor.

Such a promising student naturally cannot afford to lose.

"Can you find out who the assassin is?"

"Report to Mr. Xu, it has not been found yet."

Li Cezhi shook his head.

"The old man heard that there are rumors in the market that Chen An of the Zhu Kingdom family hired a murderer to kill him?"

Master Xu Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, and said coldly: "If this is the case, you don't have to be afraid, the old man can support you, and investigate to the end!"

"Thank you, Mr. Xu, for taking care of me. It's just that the people behind the scenes have not yet been determined."

Li Cezhi did not easily believe in these rumors, after all, they were just rumors with no evidence.
