Chapter 158: Never Let the Assassin Escape
"Queen Mother, why are you here? What's wrong with this lotus pot?"
Hong Su glanced at it suspiciously, and there was only a few lotus leaves floating in the water tank.
"Ah! Such a beautiful day, the bright moon in the sky, reminds me of the beautiful scenery of the moonlight on the lotus pond! I can't help but want to take a look at the lotus flowers in this jar!"
Lin Xiaojin turned her face and grinned, and she was shocked into a cold sweat behind her back.
It's so dangerous, I almost found my bow and arrows.
"But where are the flowers in this jar? ”
Hong Su leaned over in confusion, wanting to look into the water tank, but was grabbed by Lin Xiaojin very quickly.
Lin Xiaojin smiled and said: "Hong Su, you don't understand this, there are flowers in your heart, there are flowers everywhere! Let's go, come back to the room with me, it's cold outside!"
"Queen Mother, where are your bows and arrows?"
Hong Su saw Lin Xiaojin empty-handed. I couldn't help but ask in surprise.
"Snatched by a man in black in the Imperial Garden!
Lin Xiaojin began to talk nonsense seriously.
"Then the Queen Mother, are you okay? Where have you been? There are assassins in the palace? Have you met an assassin? Are you injured?"
Hong Su asked questions again and again worriedly, and kept looking at Lin Xiaojin's body left and right.
Lin Xiaojin was asked continuously by this call, and his head was dizzy.
Sure enough, a lie needs countless lies to come true.
She simply turned on the nonsense mode: "I didn't go anywhere! I was knocked unconscious by the man in black, and I just woke up and came back! Oops, I'm so tired, go to sleep first!"
"What! Queen Mother, you were beaten by an assassin! Assassin of heaven is really not a good death!"
Hong Su helped Lin Xiaojin distressedly, with a look of resentment.
“.....”
Lin Xiaojin closed her mouth and couldn't make a sound, she was the assassin!
In Fushou Palace, the atmosphere is dull and depressing.
Su Qingqing sat in the main hall with an angry face, and a tall man in a brocade uniform stood aside with his head bowed.
The man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he was in his early twenties, tall and big, with a heroic sword beside the leather belt around his waist.
Qin Zhengwei, the commander of the forbidden army in the palace, manages all the nine guards in the imperial city, in other words, this person is the one who holds the power of the soldiers in the palace.
Qin Zhengwei is Su Qingqing's brother-in-law.
He married the third daughter of the Su family and became an inverted son-in-law.
In order to consolidate their own power, after the death of the first emperor, the Su family arranged Qin Zhengwei to be the commander of the original forbidden army.
In order to grasp the real-time trends in the palace and contribute to the Su family's control of the harem and the government.
"Don't be angry, Lady Toi. ”
Qin Zhengwei lowered his head and frowned and soothed.
"Are you a rice bucket? It's useless at all! My father arranged for you to come in, and that's how you did things for me? You were so embarrassed to tell me that the assassin had escaped! Do you want to say that the 30,000 forbidden troops in this palace city are all idle meals? How could you let this thief slip away? Are you kidding the life of this palace?"
Su Qingqing was so angry that she picked up the cup and slammed it to the ground.
The cup smashed in front of Qin Zhengwei's feet and was rotten.
Qin Zhengwei continued with a calm face: "It's all because of the ineffective handling of subordinates, and the subordinates will step up the search overnight." No one will be released at the palace gate, and the Assassins will definitely not escape! Tomorrow morning, at the latest, the subordinates will definitely be able to search for the Assassins. ”
"What? Do you want this palace to wait until tomorrow morning? Why did you say my sister married you useless thing? You can't catch an assassin! By the time you hunt for the assassin overnight, you'll have already run away!"
Su Qingqing was so angry that she slapped the table and scolded.
