Hearing that Huyan Qianting led troops to attack the city, the Queen Mother knew that this matter was related to the emperor. Under the efficient dispatch of the Queen Mother, the regent has taken 30,000 horses in Beijing to the gate of the city, preparing to stop Huyan Qianting from leading troops to march.

Under the order of the Queen Mother, the commander of the Praetorian Guard transferred troops to guard the palace, and at the same time ordered his henchmen to bring 500 people to "protect" the emperor, so as to prevent Huyan Qianting from converging with the emperor.

The Queen Mother's henchmen were divided into three routes, and secretly left the palace with the unconscious Wu Yuzhi all the way; All the way to the regent's palace to bring the prince into the palace; The other way is to chase the regent princess and the Meng family.

Although she knew that the last two paths might not work, the Queen Mother was still unwilling to give up, and she always had to try.

The orders of the Queen Mother were conveyed one by one, and the palace people carried them out in an orderly manner, and all things were carried out in an orderly manner according to the pace of the Queen Mother, only ......

"What about people? Why haven't you come yet? "The war outside the city has started, and the Queen Mother heard the sound of fighting in the palace, but several ministers have not arrived.

"If you go and invite you again, you must invite a few adults." The Queen Mother ordered again, and the palace people were unknown, so they had to leave the palace again, but unfortunately they were destined to not be able to invite anyone.

The list given to Qin by the Emperor of Northern Qi includes several families ordered by the Queen Mother, and except for the Emperor of Northern Qi who wants to take it in person, the others Qin Lianyan has already ordered someone to solve it first.

"Tobe Shangshu is dead!" Dark Guard II came back to restore his life, and his task was only to kill the Household Department Shangshu, and none of the others in the Shangshu Mansion would not move.

And the reason why he was able to sneak into Shangshu Mansion and leave safely was thanks to Gu Qiancheng's explosives bag.

Of course, the inner part of the book should be remembered.

"The military department is dead." Dark Guard is here to get his life back.

"Master Zhang is dead."

"Lord Liu is dead."

……

The assassins sent by Qin Lianyan came back one by one to restore their lives, Qin Lianyan drew the names of the dead people on the list in his hand, and soon the number of people on the list was reduced by half, but the names in the first place still fell cleanly on the paper, and the dark one who went out to perform the task did not come back.

Qin silently put away the list and began to arrange a new round of tasks, and soon the people in the hut went out one by one, sneaking into the dark night to carry out the next tasks.

The hut was provided by the princess regent, and before tonight, Qin Shiyan would guard against the princess regent and the Meng family, but now he didn't have to worry about the Meng family rebelling at all, the Meng family had no choice, and now the person who was most afraid of him dying was the Meng family.

The most dangerous place is the safest place, the cottage arranged by the princess regent for Qin Xiaoyan is next to the palace, it is the closest row of houses to the palace, and the commotion in the palace can be heard through the red walls and green tiles.

It was also thanks to Qin Xiaoyan's boldness, when the princess regent said this place, he didn't even ask, that kind of self-confidence in controlling a qiē made the princess regent afraid for a moment, thinking that the Meng family had nothing to say to Qin Xiaoyan, so she calmed down.

The candle flame in the room was faint, revealing a gloom, and the cold wind poured in through the cracks around it, in stark contrast to the warmth of the palace hall; The silence of the house is also completely different from the noise of the palace, as if there are two worlds, but only one wall and one street are separated.

Time passed quietly, and Qin Shiyan was the only one in the room, but he was not in a hurry at all, holding a book in his hand and slowly flipping through it by the light.

"Master," someone came back in a short time, "the mission is done." ”

Again, cross out the person on the list, "Out of town." ”

"Yes," the comer departed quietly, as if he had come.

Under Qin Xiaoyan's hands, many people have completed the second assassination work one after another, but Huyan Qianting's people have not yet attacked the city.

Of course, this can't blame Huyan Qianting, the regent is not good at government affairs, but he is a good hand in combat, not to mention that he has more people than Huyan Qianting.

"Your Highness, the mission is accomplished." The Dark Guards came back one by one, and the tasks of the Dark Guards were more difficult than the others, so they were also slower to complete, and they were more or less wounded.

"Hmm." Qin Xiaoyan took out the list of the Emperor of Northern Qi and drew the dead people one by one, a total of thirty-nine people, except for the one listed first, the rest of the people were all dealt with.

Killing nearly forty Beijing officials in the imperial court of Northern Qi overnight was not an ordinary horror to say, but Qin Xiaoyan did it.

Of course, he was able to do this, of course, because of the ability of his subordinates, but more because of the convenience of the Northern Qi Emperor's trip and the information provided by the Meng family.

Internal betrayal and betrayal by one's own people have always been the most terrible, if it weren't for the Northern Qi Emperor to help him knock on the doors of those ministers, how could his people sneak into the mansion of Gaomen and find the target person.

Although, what the Emperor of Northern Qi wanted was not for him to kill people, but to persuade or accuse, but why should he listen to the Emperor of Northern Qi?

Without these officials, he wanted to see what the Northern Qi would be like and what the Northern Qi Emperor could do.

The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and a chill flashed in Qin Shiyan's eyes.

"Qiancheng is right, the Meng family is really good." It came at the right time and saved him a lot of trouble.

The four secret guards kept their heads down, not seeing the change in Qin Shiyan, only feeling that the temperature in the room suddenly dropped, and their bodies were cold,

cautiously called: "Your Highness? ”

"Well, act after a pillar of incense." If the dark one in the pillar of incense has not returned, it means that the dark one has failed in the mission and has encountered an accident.

"Thank you, Your Highness." After the four secret guards understood the meaning of Qin Xiaoyan, they clasped their fists with both hands.

A pillar of incense, but it was a matter of the blink of an eye, after the pillar of incense was burned, the dark one still did not come back, Qin Xiaoyan didn't say much, got up and walked out, and threw the book in his hand back when he stepped out of the threshold......

"Smack," the book that flew over just brought down the small oil lamp on the table, and the paper instantly ignited when it caught fire, and the fire spread along the fire oil, and the room quickly caught fire, but Qin Shiyan and the secret guard had no intention of turning back.

Walking to the door and looking at the palace standing in the dark, Qin Shiyan smiled silently: The Emperor of Northern Qi should be in Huyan's house at this moment, but I don't know if the Queen Mother will think of it?

It's unthinkable, otherwise it wouldn't be like this outside.

A group of five people, like ghosts, shuttled through the streets and alleys of the imperial court, and soon came to the mansion of the Marshal of the Northern Qi Dynasty.

The Shuai's Mansion is brightly lit, the gate is open, and the soldiers standing in a row on the left and right, and from the direction of the main entrance, you can also see the dark one tied to the torture rack.

That's right, the secret mission failed and fell into the hands of the Marshal of the Northern Qi Dynasty to lure Qin Xiaoyan and others to the door.

"Let's go." Qin Shiyan walked out of the shadows, but was stopped by the secret guards, "Your Highness, no." ”

Qin Shiyan didn't speak, but turned around, and his cold eyes fell on the hand that was pulling the hem of his clothes!
