Chapter 1380

The city of Kabul is bustling with people.

Because of the prosperity, there are many places to enjoy drinking, which is very suitable for people like Guo Jia. Especially after entering the western regions, there were a lot of wine, such as wine, fruit wine and so on, which were good for Guo Jiaxi.

Now in Kabul, he has little to do.

Therefore, Guo Jia's daily life is to travel through the wine shops in the streets of Kabul city to taste the fine wines of various families. Even if it's the same wine, it tastes different in different wineries.

Therefore, Guo Jia enjoyed wine every day.

It's very comfortable.

On this day, Guo Jia went out of the military camp alone and sat down to drink in a wine shop in the city.

He's not a heavy drinker.

It's a sip.

While tasting wine, we listen to the comments around us, because through these comments of ordinary people, we can hear a lot of real local conditions and understand the promotion of policies.

Today, Guo Jia has long been proficient in Kushan dialect.

So I can understand.

When he listened to the people's comments, most of the people's comments today were about the reform of abolishing caste system and the abolition of aristocracy and slaves. Such a thing is a hot spot in the city of Kabul.

For the people at the bottom, they are free, so they are welcome.

They all praised Zhang Xiu.

However, there are also some people who think that Zhang Xiu is inviting people to do so.

Guo Jia laughed it off.

He would not argue with others because of these things. Because the policies formulated by the imperial court will not stop advancing because of someone's comments, but will continue to advance.

When Guo Jia was drinking in a wine shop, he was not far away, in the corner of the street.

But there was a skinny man who was paying attention to Guo Jia's back from a distance. The man was dressed in coarse linen, carrying a basket and a plate with green peas in it.

This is a cooked pea, soft and glutinous.

Best for drinking.

When he saw Guo Jia, he took the basket on his back and the plate to the wine shop. As he walked, he yelled: "green peas, crisp and waxy green peas. If there are green beans in the wine, the gods will not change them. "

He approached Guo Jia step by step.

Seeing the distance from Guo Jia is getting closer and closer, there is a touch of brilliance in his eyes.

Here comes the opportunity.

This is his chance.

The distance between them is still getting closer.

Ten steps!

Five steps!

In the twinkling of an eye, when the distance between the two sides was shortened to less than three steps, the Hawker's heart was beating. Because he is not a hawker, but an assassin, who is responsible for assassinating Guo Jia.

Guo Jia also noticed the assassin when he was drinking. He noticed that when he entered the wine shop, he was originally a peddler of green peas. He should ask them one by one, and then come to his direction. However, this man did not pay any attention to the rest of the drinkers. He came directly to his direction.

Such a situation aroused Guo Jia's vigilance.

Guo Jiaben is a man who has been on the battlefield for a long time.

A pair of eyes are very powerful.

As soon as I saw the assassin coming, I immediately stood up, grabbed the wine bowl in my hand and threw it at the assassin. This action made the originally nervous assassin immediately think that he was exposed.

Sonorous!

The peddler's hand suddenly threw away the plate, pulled out a dagger from his sleeve and rushed to Guo Jia.

Guo Jia had a decision in advance, so he stepped back decisively. When Guo Jia retreated five steps in succession, he stopped and did not retreat. This curtain fell in the eyes of the assassin, but he thought that Guo Jia had no way to escape and was not ready to escape.

There was a smile on the assassin's face.

It's done!

He wants it done.

But the assassin approached. When he was less than three steps away from Guo Jia, he began to hand out his dagger. Suddenly, on the right side of his side, an iron sword stabbed like lightning.

This sword, quick and quick, goes straight to the assassin's heart.

Seeing this, the assassin quickly dodged.

If he wanted to assassinate Guo Jia, he would have to be killed, so the assassin chose to avoid. Guo Jia's face appeared in front of him.

This is the Royal Guard to protect Guo Jia's safety.

Guo Jia is Zhang Xiu's adviser.

Identity matters.

People like Guo Jia can't come out without protection. Because Guo Jia made a judgment in advance and gave the royal guards time to react. If Guo Jia didn't predict in advance, it would be hard to say the result this time.

The royal guards looked back at Guo Jia and said, "commander Guo, step back."

Guo Jia nodded and turned back.

He retreated to the corner and sat down, looking at the royal guards and assassins in the battlefield. For Guo Jia, the assassination of such a small battle is really not worth mentioning.It's not a big deal.

On the battlefield, the two men have been fighting.

The swordsman of the royal guards is skillful and fierce. In a short time, he has driven the assassin to the end. In fact, for the royal guards, his swordsmanship is easy enough to kill each other. However, in order to capture each other alive, it took more effort.

In the 15th move, the Royal Guard's sword sweeps, the blade is cut out, and a sword is put on the assassin's wrist. In an instant, blood gushed from the assassin's wrist, and the dagger fell to the ground with a crash.

The royal guards come forward quickly, intending to capture each other alive.

But as soon as he got close, the assassin was poisoned and fell to the ground.

The royal guards frowned, turned to Guo Jia and said, "commander Guo, today's Kabul city is not safe. I'll arrange someone to escort you back. I'll take this assassin and go back to work. "

"No problem!"

Guo Jia also knows the weight.

At this time, the city of Kabul is no longer safe.

So go back to the barracks to avoid a crisis. As soon as Guo Jia returned to the barracks, he went straight to see Zhang Xiu. He said once about the assassin he met in the wine shop today, and Zhang Xiu was on the alert.

Zhang Xiu said in a deep voice: "our enemy is Indra. So this time the assassin is most likely an assassin sent by Indra, who is specially prepared to assassinate us. "

"Your Majesty, I have been assassinated."

At this time, Pang Tong also entered.

Pang Tong looked eager and said, "Your Majesty, I was assassinated in the street today. Thanks to the protection of the royal guards, they beat each other back. But no one took it, the other side escaped. "

After a pause, Pang Tong said: "I suspect that the assassin may be sent by Indra. Since we will be assassinated, then liezhanqi of the Lord's mansion may also be assassinated. "

"Wang Yue!"

Zhang Xiu immediately gave an order.

"Yes

Wang Yue immediately entered outside the account.

Zhang Xiu looked solemn and said: "you immediately arrange the royal guards to go to the city master's residence to see lie Zhanqi and explain that our people were assassinated. Then, let the royal guards stay at liezhanqi's side and protect liezhanqi's safety. "

"Here it is

Wang Yue said, "I will arrange for Shi a to go."

He quit immediately and arranged for it.

Zhang Xiu flashed a cold look in her eyes and said in a deep voice: "this is because in order to win, the Buddha really has nothing to do with it. Now he has brought more than 600000 troops to kill, but he has also sent assassins to kill. We can't see him doing this because he's so stressed. "

Guo Jia said: "Your Majesty, at this time, you should be more careful."

Pang Tong said, "I'm attached to your humble position."

Zhang Xiu looked solemn and continued: "we are not afraid of Indra sending assassins. Now, what we need to know is the situation of liezhanqi. Hopefully, liezhanqi is safe now. Once liezhan makes any mistake, it will have a great impact on our control of the city of Kabul. "

Guo Jia said, "what your majesty said is true."

The Lord's mansion.

Liezhanqi is now dealing with government affairs.

He is very busy now. After all, he is responsible for all the reforms involved. So there are so many things to deal with every day.

Cui Wei is also at the side of lie Zhanqi, also busy.

A lot of official business is not dealt with by Cui first, and then handed over to lie Zhanqi for decision.

Finally, the imperial edict was issued.

When liezhanqi was busy, a servant came in and reported: "Lord of the city, a man named Aguda came to the Lord's house. He said, "there's something important. I want to see the Lord of the city."

"Please come to the lobby. I'll come later!"

Liezhanqi said.

In fact, lezhanqi knew Aguda, because Aguda was also an aristocrat in the city of Kabul. He was the same as lechanqi, and he was kind to the people, and he was also good friends with lechanqi.

So liezhanqi directly ordered.

Just after the attendant turned to go down to inform him, another attendant came in and reported: "Lord of the city, Shia, royal guards, I'm on your Majesty's order to see you. Shia said, no matter what you have, please hold down for a while and meet him first. Shia said that what he wants to say is extremely important. "

Liezhanqi said, "please come to the study."

"Here it is

I'll inform you immediately.

After a while, Shi axian stepped into his study. When he saw lie Zhanqi and Cui Wei, he was relieved. He also had a smile on his face and said: "Lord of the city, Mr. Cui!"

Liezhanqi said: "Lord Shi came to the city Lord's house in person. I don't know your majesty. What's the matter to announce?"

Shi a replied: "just before, Guo Jia and Pang Tong were assassinated outside. His majesty suspected that in order to win by all means, Indra arranged assassins to stab and kill. Your majesty thinks that the Lord of the city may also be assassinated, so he sent me to have a look and protect the safety of the Lord of the city at the same time. "When liezhanqi heard this, he raised his eyebrows and showed an unexpected look. He said, "it's so hard that there's such a thing. What's the influence of commander Guo and commander Pang?"

Shi a replied: "both of them are protected by the royal guards. Therefore, the two military divisions were not affected in any way. Instead, it was the assassins. One was killed and the other escaped. Now your majesty has sent me to protect the Lord of the city. On the premise that the assassin's assassination crisis has not been lifted, I am responsible for the safety of the city Lord. "

Liezhanqi frowned.

There's an assassin.

We need to know that when the two armies are at war, they will fight each other, but they will use their own extreme means, which does not include the assassination of each other's officials. Because once you do that, you're setting a precedent.

This is extremely inappropriate.

So liezhanqi despised Indra's sending people to assassinate him.

"At the moment, I am not in danger," he said. So you don't have to worry. "

Shi ah said: "now, I will stay with the Lord and be responsible for protecting the safety of the Lord. After all, the safety of the city master is related to the safety of the whole city of Kabul. "
