Chapter 59: Ambush Assassin (5)
In a short while, with the joint efforts of Wang Ye and Wu Yao, the three soldiers were quickly subdued. Immediately after subduing them, Wang Ye rushed to the tent where Zhao Ziheng was. When he just lifted the tent curtain, with the help of the light coming from afar and the reflection of the weapon's blade, Wang Ye saw that Zhao Ziheng's sword pierced the chest of the last soldier, and the soldier's sword also pierced Zhao Ziheng. Does this mean that Zhao Ziheng and the enemy had inflicted a heavy blow to each other?
"emperor!!"
Wang Ye hurried into the tent, and then heard the sound of something falling to the ground, but Zhao Ziheng was still standing.
"emperor--"
Wu Yao and other soldiers came to the tent with torches and opened the tent curtain. Four assassins dressed as soldiers fell in a pool of blood. Zhao Ziheng was lying on his side, so he couldn't see the specific situation...
The shocking scene made everyone speechless. Wang Ye seemed to hear the sound of water dripping on the ground. This sound made Wang Ye feel that the situation was not good. He quickly walked to the front of Zhao Ziheng and found that Zhao Ziheng's right hand was intact, but his left arm was bleeding, which was completely inconsistent with Zhao Ziheng's nonchalant look.
"I didn't expect that what I thought was Feiyan's ambush was actually an assassin, and an extraordinary one. "
Wang Ye lifted Zhao Ziheng's injured left arm and guided him to sit on a chair that had not been knocked over. Wu Yao and the others were shocked to find Zhao Ziheng's injury and were speechless again...
"General Wu, please go get the medicine box."
“Oh…Okay!!”
Seeing Zhao Ziheng injured, Wu Yao couldn't believe what he saw. He felt confused for a moment and only responded to Wang Ye's words. He left the tent to get the medicine box. The other soldiers also looked as if they had not yet recovered.
"You guys go down first, I'm enough here."
“Yes, yes!!”
The soldiers, who were as confused as Wu Yao, instinctively followed Wang Ye's words and left one after another. When they left, the soldiers holding torches did not forget to light the lights in the tents before leaving...
"It seems that this assassin is very different from the previous ones."
After everyone left, Wang Yecai rolled up the sleeve of Zhao Ziheng's left arm which had already been soaked with blood, and spoke as he did so. His expression was very serious and calm. It seemed that he already knew the other party's origins?
"There must be an unexpected ambush."
"Um."
"Although I will work for that organization as long as the price is paid, I didn't expect that Feiyan could afford the price of my life."
What Zhao Ziheng meant was that the life of a ruler was equivalent to the value of a country. Feiyan was just a small country, and it could afford a price that far exceeded the gap. There must be a reason for it. He had encountered this once before, and it was completely incomparable to this time. It seemed that the other party had really started to show his strength.
"They always do things without reason. If they take action, it proves that they have the ability to do so. This is probably just a preliminary battle, so will the days ahead be even more difficult?"
Zhao Ziheng was injured in the outpost battle, and the consequences were even more predictable. Wang Ye tore open his coat to stop the bleeding for Zhao Ziheng...
"How's the situation over there?"
"I said I found nothing. I also sensed that they would have an ambush. However, this 'ambush' seemed a little unexpected."
"In other words, the murders of many important officials from different countries were also ordered by Feiyan?"
"I don't think so. It's too early to draw a conclusion. After all, we haven't found any evidence to prove that there is a connection. As for those murdered senior officials, we can't find much in common, just like this plague incident."
Whether it was the murder of many important officials or the current plague incident, there was no commonality between them. It was really hard to find any clues. Or was it just an accident? Or a coincidence? If so, the time of occurrence was too close, which had never happened before, so there must be some connection between them.
"If their claws have already reached out to me, it means that they have officially started to act, right?"
"Very likely."
If it was just aimed at an important official of the country, it might just be a foreshadowing, but if it was aimed at the ruler of a country, it would be a very serious matter.
"Sure enough, if you want to find out if all this is related, Feiyan is worth a thorough investigation."
"Yes."
The conversation between Wang Ye and Zhao Ziheng was ordinary yet profound. The important thing was that no matter how Wang Ye cleaned the wound, Zhao Ziheng didn't even frown, even though the wound on his left arm was obvious and bleeding.
"I've got the medicine box—"
As Wu Yao's voice arrived, others had already entered the tent and quickly brought the medicine box to Wang Ye.
"Thank you for your hard work. If possible, I hope you can go get me a basin of clean water. The wound needs to be cleaned. Also, prepare a set of replacement clothes for the emperor."
"I'll go right away."
Wu Yao put the medicine box on the coffee table next to him and left quickly. It was completely used by Wang Ye. Wang Ye opened the medicine box, took out cotton balls and alcohol and began to clean the wound...
"Is Wu Yao's situation also under your control?"
"That requires your cooperation, Your Majesty."
Even while wiping the wound with alcohol, Zhao Ziheng remained frowning and continued talking with Wang Ye. It was not Wang Ye who asked Zhao Ziheng for help . Zhao Ziheng just felt it was necessary to do so to make Wu Yao aware of his mistake. Fortunately, the result was not in a bad direction.
