Volume 2 Chapter 67 Qingcheng Order
Three days is not a long time, but it is always uncomfortable to be in the palace.
Just when Xing Shengbin was quietly waiting for the three days to pass, the next night, outside the side hall, there was a loud and noisy voice.
I originally planned to join in the fun and go out to have a look, but I didn't expect to be blocked by two steel guns from the two Imperial City Forbidden Soldiers as soon as I went out.
Under the reflection of the snow, Xing Shengbin only saw a group of figures, chasing a black shadow in a night suit.
Xing Shengbin couldn't help but be interested, he didn't expect that someone would really dare to break into the palace at night, if it wasn't for the daring of the artist, it would be a fledgling boy in the rivers and lakes.
Although Xing Shengbin wanted to continue watching, the two Imperial City Forbidden Army didn't seem to be willing.
In the middle of the night, it was the little palace maid who brought him supper, and it has been this little palace maid for the past two days, and I don't know why, or if everyone who was quarantined was like this.
Out of curiosity, Xing Shengbin asked about the night, but he didn't expect the little palace maid to really know.
At three o'clock, in a remote hall, when the Imperial City Forbidden Army was carefully inspecting, they found this man in black, and the two adults with the highest cultivation in the Imperial City both made a move, but they were still run away by this person.
Listening to the palace maids chewing the root of their tongues, this man in black is a woman, and it seems to be, what are the Nine Great Demons Left Dao, the Bashan Gu Clan. The two adults were afraid of the danger of Gu worms, so they were run away by this person.
After hearing this, Xing Shengbin couldn't help but feel the pair of black gauze women in the inn.
The cultivation of those two people should not be so high, as far as the little palace maid knows, there are two worshippers in the imperial city, one is the vice president of the martial arts academy, and the other is an uncle of the Lu clan of the royal family, and the two masters of the three realms failed to leave that person, so it can only be said that the strength of that person is too strong.
Judging from this information, that person is obviously not the two black gauze women that Xing Shengbin saw, but how many Gu clan people have been mixed into this imperial city, how could such a master come out!
Not long after the supper, the ministers, who had been quarantined for two days, were sent out of the imperial city by royal carriages.
It seems that the suspicion has been lifted, but why was the suspicion removed, Xing Shengbin already had a rough guess about the disappearing corpse.
Jumping out of the royal carriage, the eunuch who was driving the carriage opened his mouth and shouted:
"Master Xing, in three days, our family will pick you up, this time to go to Jiucheng, where are you going to live for a year, prepare some more daily necessities, the environment there is difficult, it is not like Kyoto, there is nothing missing. ”
Xing Shengbin's psychology is crying bitterly! I didn't expect to leave home again, what is this going on! Although he was bitter in his heart, Xing Shengbin still put on a smiling face and said:
"Thank you to this father-in-law, I am tired of announcing that these rights should be given to my father-in-law for tea. ”
The father-in-law who was driving didn't look at the silver handed over by Xing Shengbin, and said with a smile:
"Your Excellency is polite, this is just a matter within the miscellaneous family, Lord Xing should make arrangements for the affairs of Jiucheng!"
After saying a whistle, he drove the carriage back to the imperial city.
Xing Shengbin gently knocked the door, and the sound of the concierge came out from inside, and before long, the closed door was opened.
As soon as he saw that it was his own master, he shouted inside with a loud voice.
This voice woke up most of the people in the courtyard, and Liu Rushi also ran out in clothes. As her main room, Chen Qingying sat in the main room and arranged for the servants to prepare food, drink and bath water.
The imperial city went for three days, this is not like a New Year's Eve, fortunately Xing Shengbin is back.
Liu Rushi followed behind Xing Shengbin and whispered:
"In the past few days, Qingying's housewife has been in a hurry, and she has sent people to the imperial city several times, but they have been blocked back, is there something wrong with the imperial city. ”
Xing Shengbin said with a smile:
"Something has indeed happened to the palace, but it has nothing to do with us, these days, the East and West Market, is the market open!"
This sudden sentence, Liu Rushi, who asked, was stunned for a while, and thought for a while before saying:
"Shouldn't be, it's only the third day of the Lunar New Year, how can the East and West Market open so early, it should wait until the fifteenth has passed!
Xing Shengbin said helplessly:
"I'll talk about it later! I'll rub my back for a while, I've been suffocated in the palace for the past two days. ”
As soon as she heard this, Liu Rushi's cheeks turned red, but Chen Qingying heard these words, and shouted directly:
"Why do you want her to ......?"
Before Chen Qingying's words were finished, Xing Shengbin had already grabbed Chen Qingying's hand and said:
"It's so late, you, the housewife, better rest early! In three days, I have to be ordered to take office, it seems that it is Jiucheng, I still have to prepare some things in the next few days, and I don't know what kind of place Jiucheng is. ”
Hearing this, Liu Rushi, who originally followed the figure behind Xing Shengbin, was two steps slower.
Xing Shengbin had already taken a look, looking at Liu Rushi's expression, and instantly guessed that Liu Rushi might know this place.
sent Chen Qingying, who was in his main room, to sleep, and Xing Shengbin directly pulled Liu Rushi to her room.
From Liu Rushi's mouth, he finally knew what kind of place Jiucheng was.
Jiucheng is a hell on earth, and for Xing Shengbin, it will be his slaughterhouse.
In Jiucheng Zhao Prison, Daheng Kingdom was imprisoned, and many of the condemned prisoners from all over the country were prisoners and their families.
To be an official in Daheng, the realm of soldiers will inevitably be above the Qi Sea realm, and the higher the position, the higher the cultivation, this is the unchanging truth.
Liu Rushi's father was secretly beheaded a few years ago, his family and female dependents were put into the lowly status, and the men were basically sent to Dali Temple Prison, and later they were transferred to Jiucheng, and the prisoners who entered Jiucheng don't want to come out alive, this is the simplest truth that all insiders know.
Xing Shengbin was promoted to executioner, that is, this is the emperor's preparation to reuse him, but the first thing to do is to try to kill the prisoners in the nine cities, the more you kill, the higher the official position.
But it is because of this that Liu Rushi will change color, and Xing Shengbin will become an executioner, which means that her brother may be buried in the hands of Xing Shengbin.
There is a rule in the Nine Cities that 'clear the city', only by cleaning up all the prisoners in one city will they be allowed to enter the next city and continue the task of killing.
Hearing such a thing, Xing Shengbin sighed and said:
"The emperor's order cannot be violated, now we don't have the capital to fight, I know you hate, but please put away your hatred, there will be a chance, I will try to let them leave without pain, this is the only thing I can do." ”
When Liu Rushi heard this, her face turned even paler, she lowered her head, and was silently sad, her benefactor wanted to kill her brother, what a great hatred this is, but who should such hatred belong to!
Could it be that he really wants to kill Xing Shengbin with his own hands one day, or does he want to find out the person who framed his father and slash the enemy!
This question made Liu Rushi fall into a difficult choice.
