Chapter 235 Public Trial and Assassination

"Zhao Kuangyin died in the Battle of Liaodong.

When the news came back to the capital, Murong Fu was dumbfounded.

When he learned about the Battle of Liaodong, Lin Chen was also involved in it.

Murong Fu couldn't help but think wildly.

Could it be that Zhao Kuangyin was manipulated by Lin Chen?

While Murong Fu was secretly shocked, he also had a better plan.

On the surface, he was still Lin Chen's chief clerk, and his cousin even married Lin Chen as his concubine.

With such a close relationship, it would not be an exaggeration to say that he is Lin Chen's confidant.

So after weighing the situation, Murong Fu came up with a new plan.

"Brother Wang means, your surname is Murong?"

After Murong Fu finished speaking, he heard Lin Chen's surprised question.

For some reason, Murong Fu always felt that there was a hint of teasing in the eyes of the ghost-faced general in front of him.

"To be honest, General, this matter was forced by my humble duty." Murong Fu pretended to be bitter.

"oh?"

Lin Chen became interested. He wanted to hear what direction Murong Fu would take next.

"Do you know Murong Fu's name?"

Murong Fu originally thought that Lin Chen, as a military commander of the imperial court, did not know the affairs of the world.

Never thought about it.

"Of course, as the saying goes, Qiao Feng in the north, Murong in the south."

Lin Chen pretended to be surprised and said, "Could it be that Brother Murong is that Nan Murong?"

Murong Fu nodded with difficulty.

"I didn't expect Brother Murong to have such strength?!"

Murong Fu felt a little relieved when he saw that Lin Chen had not connected him with the mysterious half-step innate master who had taken action in Xianping that day.

However, I also made up my mind not to expose my true cultivation level.

If Lin Chen notices it, he may be exposed!

"So Brother Murong was forced to hide his identity, but he ran into trouble?" Lin Chen asked.

coming!

Murong Fu perked up when he saw Lin Chen talking about this matter.

"Don't hide it from your lord!"

Murong Fu's face showed bitterness, "The general doesn't know what he is doing. He was originally working in a humble position in the south of the Yangtze River to earn a living. How could he have thought that he would suddenly become the murderer of the leader of the Beggar Clan!"

Murong Fu was also afraid that Lin Chen didn't understand the affairs of the Budai Beggar Clan, so he explained it thoughtfully.

"Really?"

Lin Chen looked at Murong Fu and frowned slightly.

When Murong Fu saw this, his heart trembled, and he quickly raised his hands and swore an oath.

"I dare not deceive you in my humble position. You can send someone to Jiangnan Yanziwu to investigate."

"When the former leader of the Budai Beggar Clan died, he was still in his humble position at home, so there was no chance to commit the crime."

Lin Chen nodded thoughtfully.

In the original book.

Murong Fu indeed took the blame.

Throughout the book, Murong Fu is an unlucky man.

He lost his cousin and devoted himself to restoring his country, but in the end he ended up betraying everyone and becoming crazy himself.

Of course, it was all his own doing!

in short.

Murong Fu started with Tianhu, and finally the big and small kings singled out the "Gamble Monster".

"so…?"

Lin Chen had just returned not long ago and was unaware of the changes in the capital.

"Please sir, come forward to clear up your humble position!"

turn out to be.

After learning that Qiao Feng was in the capital, those famous disciples who died because of his famous stunt came to seek justice for him.

For a time, the noise was huge.

Most of the martial arts community came to the capital and wanted to hold a public trial.

Because there was so much movement, even famous families who were rewarded by the imperial court came.

For example, Shaolin and Wudang sent people to the capital to maintain order in the martial arts forest.

You must know that this is the foot of the emperor.

It would be a big trouble if these people in the martial arts world who fought against each other over disagreements really caused trouble.

No wonder!

Lin Chen thought that there were more rough men with swords in the capital these days.

He was still a little surprised that this was the case.

Lin Chen understood what Murong Fu meant, it was just to give Murong Fu a platform to become a public enemy in the martial arts world.

Otherwise, Murong Fu would be alone and weak at the public trial.

Lin Chen nodded slightly: "When the time comes, I will go and have a look."

Murong Fu breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

He felt that Lin Chen wanted to give him a platform.

Although the imperial court and the martial arts do not interfere with each other, they can be called two different worlds.

But the imperial court also has authority over people in the martial arts world.

After all, even the top martial arts sects, Wudang Shaolin, have to accept rewards from the court and act under official positions.

Even if the imperial court does not interfere with Wulin's affairs, it does not mean that Wulin can underestimate the imperial court's heritage.

Thinking of this, Murong Fu felt a little more at ease about the meeting four days later.

After Murong Fujian said this, he said goodbye and left with great discernment.

It won't hinder what Lin Chen wants to do today.

"Now, the capital is going to be lively."

Lin Chen thought of something and suddenly smiled.

Thinking about it, facing the extra martial arts people in the capital, the most troublesome ones are the Yamen and Liumen in the capital.

Zhuge Shenhou had cheated Lin Chen before, and he was happy to see him worried.

For now, he had better go to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division first.

As the capital of the Li and Tang Dynasties, the capital was naturally the most prosperous place in the world.

In addition, the Spring Festival is approaching, and people in the capital who have changed into new clothes have poured into the streets, which is very lively.

It was difficult for Lin Chen to ride a horse on a busy street, so he dismounted and held the Yezhao Jade Lion, walking slowly through the crowd.

This jade lion shines at night, it is indeed a famous horse.

Even people who don’t understand horses will look at him with side eyes.

A good horse in ancient times was no less valuable than a modern luxury sports car.

Originally, some people with bad intentions gave up their thoughts after seeing the clothes on the man leading the horse.

No one would mess with the purple court robes of the court military officer unless they were fools.

You should know that only important officials of the fourth rank and above can wear purple official robes.

In the capital, where moving bricks can hit several seventh-rank officials, he is also a rare important official.

Look at the ghost face on the man's face.

The people of the capital also roughly understand who this person is.

The ghost-faced general is famous throughout the capital.

Just when Lin Chen was immersed in the street scene of the capital.

His eyes were slightly condensed!

Killing intent!

On the street in front of him.

On the street, on the roofs on both sides, the vendors selling flowers and fruits had strange eyes!

Swish!

At the same time.

The armor-piercing crossbow arrows shot by the crossbow went straight to Lin Chen's eyebrows.

At the same time!

The three people closest to Lin Chen had ordinary faces, just like passers-by on the street.

But in the next second, they suddenly jumped up!

A dark green dagger was stabbed towards his neck, heart, and abdomen!

These three places are vital points of the human body, and there is no chance of survival if they are hit!

"Murder!"

Ordinary people who witnessed this scene and panicked shouted loudly.

At this time, an assassin who stabbed Lin Chen from behind happened to face the night-shining jade lion who turned his head.

The assassin swore that he saw contempt in the eyes of a horse.

"How is it possible? Is it a spirit?!"

The next second.

He was kicked in the chest by the powerful horse.

Crack!

The sound of the sternum fracture was clearly audible!

Before the assassin died, a horrifying thought flashed through his mind.

Just this horse has a terrifying power close to the acquired power? !
