When Yan Hui's tent was set up in the Mulan enclosure, an uninvited guest was also welcomed in the palace. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Under the moonlit night, a black shadow swept over the eaves of the house under his feet like a dragonfly, and soon arrived at the Taihe Hall in the palace.

Once upon a time, this was the dormitory of the First Yuan Emperor, and under the bright candle fire at night, it was the figure of the First Yuan Emperor who reviewed the recital.

But now, this Taihe Hall is no better than the dilapidated and cold cold palace.

As the so-called trees fall and scatter, now there is no one in this Taihe Hall except for a few small eunuchs who are not in the stream and occasionally come and go here.

"Ninth Master. Childlike put the basket in his hand on the table, and in addition to a worn oil lamp, there was also an old man sitting at the table.

He had gray hair, a wrinkled face, and was dressed in a washed, white, inferior garment.

Although it looks very inconspicuous, the childlike heart is deeply in awe of this person in the bottom of his heart, this person's name is Gong Jiu, and he doesn't know the origin or rank.

Tong Xin only knew that since he was accepted by Qinghua, he was often taken by Qinghua to deliver food to Gong Jiu.

At that time, Qinghua was still the chief of internal affairs in charge of the palace, but when he saw the person in front of him, he had to respectfully call him "Nine Masters", which can be imagined how powerful this palace nine is.

Seeing that this ninth master still didn't plan to take care of himself, Tong Xin took out the food in the basket and wanted to retreat.

"It's too dark tonight, so I'll go back to a brightly lit place. ”

At first glance, when he heard Gong Jiu speak, Tong Xin was still a little surprised, he had sent him food for many years, and this was the first time he heard Gong Jiu speak.

Gong Jiu will not be untargeted, he must have his reasons for saying this.

"Yes, Childlike wrote it down. ”

Seeing that the childlike heart was gone, Gong Jiu, who was sitting at the table, opened his cold eyes.

"Your Excellency is hiding to the side, are you going to watch like this all night? ”

"It's okay to watch it all night like this, after all, the famous shadow guards in the past, it is rare to see scenes that are so desolate in their later years. ”

Yu Yuandao fell from the eaves, "It's been a long time, old friend." ”

"I don't have any friends. ”

"Don't say that. Yu Yuandao Shi Ran sat at the table, looking at the few meals on the table.

"Looks like I'm here at the right time, why, don't you invite your old friend for a drink. ”

"I don't have any friends. Gong Jiu repeated again and again, "There is no wine, if you are hungry, you can give you half of the food on the table." ”

Gong Jiu said as he used the silver needle to measure the food on the table one by one, and after the silver needle was as clear as ever, he took out some of each and put it in the corner of the wall, where there lived two fat mice with fat brains.

Yu Yuandao grabbed a handful of crispy peanuts and sat there eating them for a while.

"It is said that you shadow guards can only live in the shadows, and always be the shadow behind the emperor, why, I look at your life but live a comfortable life, look at the two mice you fed, they are almost too fat to walk. ”

"These are rats that have grown up feeding dead human flesh, and they are naturally stronger than other rats, but there are only these two left. ”

Seeing that the two mice were still alive after eating, not following in the footsteps of the previous mice, Gong Jiu sat at the table at this time, he ate quickly, but he only ate half of the food on the plate, and the rest was obviously what he promised Yu Yuandao.

Yu Yuandao looked at the two rats that had burrowed back into the hole, "That's why you can still sit here and talk to me?"

"Empress Shen is very powerful, and the Holy Lord is also very powerful, although we are shadow guards, not all emperors like shadow guards, especially, we still know too much. ”

"That's why there were only three of you left in the original Thirty-Six Shadow Guards. Yu Yuandao seemed to think of the days when the first emperor was on the throne, "We are all old, and now that the general of the auxiliary country is dead, I have broken free from the whirlpool of this imperial city, where are you?

"I am Yingwei, I was born in the Imperial City, and naturally I will die in the Imperial City. ”

"Well, I know that it is a waste of words to talk to you about this, and to be honest, I am here for the will left by the first emperor. For the sake of our acquaintance, I hope you will tell me the news of your will. ”

"Shadow Guard is only loyal to the emperor, don't say it's you, even if he comes, I still say this. ”

Gong Jiu didn't say who "he" was, but both of them knew the identity of "him".

Yu Yuandao said and stood up, "Since we can't go on, then we can only solve it." ”

"You're no match for me. Gong Jiu looked at Yu Yuandao and said lightly, "Not twenty years ago, not twenty years later." ”

"How do you know if you don't try. Since each is his master, it is always the one that allows fire and water. Yu Yuandao just wanted to take a horse step, but jumped back again.

"It's not big enough to run into these bottles and cans. Yu Zhuliu said with a provocative expression, "To be honest, I also want to know where I am inferior to you, after all, I almost became a shadow guard back then." ”

"But you're a little bit worse after all. ”

"yes, it's a little bit worse, so I became an auxiliary general in suspended animation......"

Yu Yuandao slapped Gong Jiu with a palm as he spoke, and he himself took advantage of the situation to escape out of the window, Gong Jiu was not suspicious, and got up directly to catch up.

As soon as Gong Jiu left, he saw the oil lamp on the table flickering a few times, and a man in black wearing a mask quietly fell in the Taihe Palace......

The two of them outside the hall were fists and feet, Yu Yuandao attacked violently, and took the fierce road of opening and closing, and although Gong Jiu was old, he was extremely flexible in action, which made it a trick to move a thousand catties.

Yu Yuandao is like a beast trapped in the mire, with a body of fangs and claws, but there is nothing he can do, he is getting more and more difficult, but Gong Jiu has a lot of spare strength, and he has not even flashed his weapon from beginning to end.

"It's a shadow guard, it seems that I don't need to come up with something powerful, I'm going to lose face today. ”

Yu Yuandao took off the saber at his waist, and the scabbard that converged on his edge slowly faded away, and his eagle eyes became more and more serious.

If there is really anything that can be compared with the shadow guard, it must be the self who almost became the shadow guard back then, thirty-six shadow guards is a fixed number, if you want to enter, you have to squeeze out one of them, and Yu Yuandao was selected by lot that year was Gong Jiu.

This "monster" can be ranked in the top three even in the thirty-six shadow guards.

He didn't want to mention all this back then, but for the sake of his master's affairs, he was beaten into a pig's head again today, and he gritted his teeth and admitted it.

Looking at Yu Yuandao, who had a serious face, Gong Jiu secretly sensed that something was wrong.

"It's not good, turn the tiger away from the mountain. ”

Gong Jiu turned around and wanted to rush back to the Taihe Palace, but how could Yu Yuandao let him go. He clenched the knife in his hand and slashed at Gong Jiu.

As soon as Gong Jiu's hands were wrong, he saw a golden wire appear between his palms, and the golden wire looked as slender as hair, but it stopped Yu Yuandao's waist knife steadily.

And Gong Jiu obviously wanted to make a quick decision, he kept gesticulating and threw the golden wire in his hand towards Yu Yuandao.

The sound of the golden wire breaking through the air came, and Yu Yuandao stopped him from lifting the knife, but he was still twisted by the seemingly soft, but actually incomparably tough golden wire halfway through, and the knot was firmly wrapped around his neck.

"Everyone used to be colleagues, and I didn't do anything big to plot the usurpation of the throne, but it's a fight, you are too serious. ”

The golden thread on his neck tightened more and more, and Yu Yuandao's neck was streaked with blood.

"It's better to have nothing to do in the Taihe Hall tonight, otherwise it will ......" Gong Jiu shook his index finger, withdrew the golden wire, and fled towards the Taihe Palace.

Yu Yuandao lay on the ground and looked at the waist knife that was cut out of the golden silk and smiled bitterly, "Master, you must hurry up......"
