Chapter 97: A Confusing Mandate

In the first two words, you can still preliminarily guess that it is to destroy the Red Shadow Corps, and the back is just Dongzhu and Beiliang, so I really can't think of any useful information.

However, the purpose of Gu Qinghe's trip to Dongzhu was to find out Xiang Ping's street people, and now the task is completed.

Gu Qinghe took back the stone and put it on his neck, but he caught a glimpse of Bai Yan looking at him with an ambiguous gaze.

"What did you take again?" Gu Qinghe asked.

Bai Yan pointed to the stone that Gu Qinghe was still holding in his hand and didn't have time to bring around his neck: "It turns out that you have been carrying it closely." ”

Bai Yan said, his cheeks were still a little red.

Gu Qinghe was suddenly embarrassed, she quickly withdrew her hand, and no longer put the stone around her neck, but put it in her arms.

"Since you gave it to me, it's mine, I can wear it as much as I want!" With that, she turned and left.

Bai Yan was stupid and happy to catch up, and his heart was as sweet as honey.

There is a tea house.

Xiang You was reporting to Su Changqing what happened to Gu Qinghe here.

Xiang You wasn't there when it happened, but when he listened to the afterimage of the courtyard from the mouth of the dark guard, he couldn't help but feel a little sick to his stomach.

Now that he had simplified what the secret guard said to Su Changqing, he still couldn't help but want to vomit.

After Su Changqing listened, he just sighed: Qinghe, you can be said to be a fan all over your body.

The master of the Qin Sect is dead, the eldest young master of Qin has broken his right hand, and there are skeletons made of iron beads everywhere in his body, I am afraid that if he survives, he is destined to be a cripple.

When Gu Qinghe told Qin Fengmian about this, she saw Qin Fengmian wet the corners of her eyes.

Gu Qinghe didn't understand Qin Fengmian's mood at this time.

She was an orphan when she was a child, and she had never felt such a thing as blood in her life, so the so-called blood is thicker than water by ordinary people, which is an illusory ghost thing for her.

Therefore, if this happened to her, it would be simplified to the fact that the Qin Sect Master's family would bear her, then she would ask for it back, take revenge, and her heart would be comfortable.

But looking at Qin Fengmian, it doesn't seem to be the case.

Gu Qinghe came out with Bai Yan, and she suddenly asked Bai Yan out loud: "Bai Yan, do you know why Fengmian is crying?" ”

Of course, Bai Yan didn't know Gu Qinghe's life experience, and he didn't know the meaning of Gu Qinghe's question, but he still answered her very seriously.

"Fengmian is an emotional and amorous person, no matter what the Qin family does to him, it is all in the past, plus they are Fengmian's only relatives besides his mother, it is inevitable to be sad."

Gu Qinghe said he didn't understand. The kind of person who is the master of the Qin Sect is really not worth remembering Qin Fengmian.

Bai Yan continued: "I think Feng Mian actually hopes that he can live in harmony with his father and brothers." If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have had to go to Kuaidaomen alone, after all, he didn't want to involve the corps, and there was not only such a way, but he insisted on going. ”

"Really?" Gu Qinghe didn't seem to understand, "Bai Yan, blood is thicker than water, what kind of feelings are there?" ”

Bai Yan smiled, but was very sad: "Maybe it's that he loses you all over the world, and you can't kill him...... I think that's how it feels. ”

Gu Qinghe knew that Bai Yan was thinking of his brother.

"Am I doing something wrong?" Gu Qinghe said, "I knew that with the bomb, the Qin Sect Lord would either die or be injured, but I still insisted on using it." Is this too cruel for Fengmian? ”

Bai Yan rubbed Gu Qinghe's hair: "Qinghe, you're not wrong. They deserve it, no wonder you. ”

It was the first time Bai Yan had seen Gu Qinghe doubt himself, he was afraid that his momentary actions would hurt Feng Mian, such Gu Qinghe really made him feel distressed.

Gu Qinghe sent back the news he got from Wang Meng's mouth to Jin Zhao, and they were also preparing to meet Jin Zhao.

After all, this is the territory of the Foot Killing Palace and the Quick Knife Gate, and now that people from both of them have died at the hands of the Red Shadow, it is undoubtedly very dangerous to stay here.

However, before they could get out of the capital of Dongzhu, news came from Feng Million that someone in Dongzhu had entrusted a task.

Dongzhu's entrustment is also accepted, although it is not as good as Jin Zhao, but it is not a lot.

However, if it is an ordinary task, it is just that, but this commission, the client turned out to be King Jing of Dongzhu!

And King Jing's entrusted task was to assassinate Beiliang General Hubble, and as for the commission, it was as high as two million taels of silver!

When receiving this news, Qin Fengmian was the first to vote against.

His reasons are simple and straightforward.

Regardless of whether Hubble is the number one general in Beiliang, not to mention the masters around him, his own skills are also extremely extraordinary. Moreover, Hubble is Xiang Ping's street man and the client of the Step Killing Palace, if he wants to sneak into Beiliang to assassinate him, he must die nine deaths.

Therefore, Qin Fengmian strongly agreed to accept this commission.

Gu Qinghe naturally knew the stakes, but as a mercenary, what he was doing was to hover on the edge of life and death. The danger of this commission is certain, but the reward is also extremely substantial.

Gu Qinghe finally decided that she would first meet with the entrusted King Jing before making a decision.

After all, the Foot Killing Palace is an old organization that has been resounding in the rivers and lakes for decades, and the headquarters is in Dongzhu, so why did they choose the Red Shadow instead of the Foot Killing Palace, this is really hard not to wonder.

However, seeing that King Jing is in a hurry, sometimes, he has to hang the other party's appetite.

Therefore, Gu Qinghe and the others did not rush back to Jinzhao for the time being, and in the next period of time, they followed Su Changqing around Dongzhu with nothing to do, drinking and chatting.

It's just that they are secretly, and it is indispensable to investigate King Jing well.

According to the investigation of his subordinates, this King Jing has one in forty, and he has one-third of Dongzhu's military power in his hands.

Whenever Bei Liang came to attack, he would take the initiative to go to the border to fight the enemy.

In the eyes of the people, King Jing is a good prince who protects the country and the people, and in the eyes of the emperor, he is a reliable younger brother.

So on the whole, this King Jing has no bad records, he is loyal to Dongzhu, and he is loved by the emperor and the people.

Gu Qinghe felt strange when he heard the news, generally people like this would not like the method of assassination, on the contrary, they would feel that the battlefield battle was pleasant.

Bai Yan had something to say at this time, after all, among this group of people, he was the only one who could speak as the leader of the government.

"Not necessarily. What if he gave up his family for everyone's sake? ”

Gu Qinghe nodded yes, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve, if you choose one of them, you will definitely give up one of them.

However, what the facts are, you still have to meet this prince to know.

The people sent by Gu Qinghe to make an appointment with the prince quickly brought back a reply, and they agreed to meet secretly in a teahouse three days later.
