Chapter 1606 The Hair Is Gone

The name Assassin evokes the long and terrifying memories of the nobles of Essirbania. During the Crusades, Assassin was like a dark cloud that shrouded the heads of European monarchs for a long time. They used this method to assassinate nobles from various European countries. Raymond II of Tripoli and Conrad, King of Jerusalem, were assassinated by them successively.

Until Hulagu led the Mongolian cavalry across the Amu Darya River, marched into Persia, established the Ilkhanate in Persia and Iraq, and completely razed Alamut, the stronghold of the Assassins. All his congregants were also executed, and the sect that had been in Megatron Asia for more than two hundred years disappeared, and the cloud hanging over the heads of European monarchs had just dissipated.

But now, similar things happened in the palace of Esibenia, so how could Philip IV not be afraid? Look at these people who were killed, his personal attendant, the queen's personal maid, and the prince's nurse, all of them were people around them, even if they rested at night, they were all next door to them.

Since these assassins could kill them without alarming anyone, they would certainly be able to kill himself. Philip IV was terrified now, lest an assassin suddenly appear and stab his long sword into his throat.

"It must have been done by those Ming people! This wound is exactly the same as that of Diego Alasteas!" A palace guard pointed to the throat of the king's personal servant and said that the wound was similar in size and depth. Go-Alasteas's is exactly the same, and it looks like it was made by the same person.

"Are they trying to threaten me?" Philip IV trembled when he spoke, and he didn't know whether he was angry or frightened. "Send someone to kill them immediately! Immediately!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down!" A wise man immediately advised, "They are in the church now, we cannot use force against the church."

Of course, this is not the most important point, they still have other worries, "And, Your Majesty, even if we break into the church, can we kill all the assassins? No one can guarantee that the assassins are in the church now." These ministers I'm also worried about my own safety. If someone can kill the king, he can also kill himself. Even if it's for his own safety, he can't take the risk of offending those Ming people.

Judging from the targets they chose, they didn't intend to kill the king, queen and prince directly, it seemed more like a means of intimidation, after all, killing the king didn't do them much good, they had other Isn't it the purpose?

"Then what should I do? Do you want me to endure this humiliation?" Philip IV was furious, but the other party's words reminded him that this possibility does exist. If it was him, he would definitely hide the assassin elsewhere Bar?

"We can try to continue negotiating with them." The minister thought for a long time but couldn't come up with a good solution, he could only think of a bad idea, "Maybe we can pretend to agree to their conditions first, and then wait until they board the ship." Launch an attack and take them out at sea!"

That assassin will not stay in Essibania forever, will he? He would definitely leave with the Ming mission and sink the ship completely after reaching the sea, so that the assassin would not be able to escape.

"No, their conditions are a great humiliation to Essibania! Absolutely cannot agree, even if it is pretend." Philip IV still cared about his face.

Then he followed the plan of another minister, sent heavy troops to surround the chapel, then strengthened the defense of the palace, arranged three times as many guards outside the palace, and called the queen and prince together, and the three of them stayed together. In a house, candles are lit all night in the room, and the most elite guards are guarding the room.

When Philip IV fell into a drowsy sleep, he vaguely smelled a bloody smell in his nose, and immediately opened his eyes,

Immediately, he was stunned by the scene in front of him. The guards outside didn't notice anything unusual at night, but the guards and maids in the room all died, and the same wound appeared on their throats.

"Honey, you have hair and a beard!" Queen Elizabeth, who was woken up by him, glanced at Philip IV, and immediately covered her mouth in horror, only to see that Philip IV's hair and beard had all been shaved Now, the head is almost a marinated egg, and the round and slippery look is really ridiculous.

"God, dear, your hair is gone!" Philip IV also exclaimed, only to see that Elizabeth's golden hair was also shaved, and she also became bald.

"Father, mother." Baltasar Carlos, the prince of Asturias who was just over two years old, was also woken up by them, and he opened his eyes and shouted in a daze.

"Oh, my God, my little baby!" Philip IV and Elizabeth both shed tears when they saw their children, because the thinning hair on Baltasar Carlos' head was also shaved .

"Your Majesty! What's going on inside! We're coming in!" Their voices startled the guards outside. After a burst of armor clashing, the guards outside broke in, and looked at the corpses all over the floor and the three naked The head was stunned.

The captain of the guard felt a burning pain on his face. They were like fools who had been guarding outside all night, but they were treated as sculptures. They easily avoided their guards, entered the room, and killed so many people. The person who changed the hairstyle of the king, queen and prince, this is a slap in the face.

"You bastards! Idiots! Idiots!" Philip IV's roar resounded through the palace again, and he stopped panting for a quarter of an hour before he stopped, "Send someone to call Gonzales back immediately, he is How do you guard those people!"

After a while, the general in charge of guarding the church, Gonzales, came back. He was also confused about this, and quickly explained, "Your Majesty, I didn't find anyone coming out of the church!"

Can that be seen? They just stared at the door of the church. The evil eunuch under Wang Chengen flew out from the roof with light work. The Sibanians didn't have the slightest idea of ​​light work.

"Your Majesty, it seems that their assassins are not with them." This phenomenon continued to mislead the ministers of Essibania.

"Then what should we do now?" Philip IV was even more troubled.

"No matter how we deal with it, we can't take the risk of losing little Baltasar." Elizabeth hugged her child distressedly. She and Philip IV gave birth to four princesses before, all of which died young, leaving only this single seedling .
