Chapter 336: Immediate Wind
Nanjing Wei State Mansion, Wei State Duke Xu Wenjue is sleeping with his noble lady in his arms, both of them are in their dreams after the Emperor of the Apocalypse returns to Beijing, they are high and powerful.
On this day, the weather was freezing and the temperature plummeted.
Two servants with lanterns lit one by one on the porch, and one of them curled his neck and cursed what the hell it was.
Yesterday the sun was shining, and today it is so cold.
The two lit the lamp and walked away, not noticing the brocade guard hiding in the shadows, shivering from the cold.
These brocade guards obviously didn't expect that the weather would cool down so quickly, and they could actually see each other's breath in the whispers.
"The brothers are nervous, today's affairs can't be half a mistake!"
One of them commanded.
Hearing this, Yu's brocade guards all had a killing intent in their eyes that was even more chilling than the cold wind around them.
Speaking of which, today's weather suddenly turned cooler, as if it was not the sunny April day in the Jiangnan area of the Ming Dynasty.
Mo said that many of the homeless and beggars begging along the streets, and even the people living at home, were infected with the wind and cold, huddled in the quilts and shivering.
The people are okay, there is still shelter from the wind and rain, but the people along the street are miserable, most of these people will be frozen to death.
Not only do they have no money to take medicine, but they also don't have the conditions to recuperate.
However, regardless of the weather, the government, or the dry season when there is no harvest, these are not difficult for the wealthy families in Nanjing and the wealthy gentry in the vicinity.
Before the sky was completely dark, the Wei Mansion lit lanterns, and the stoves were set up in each room early.
The room was lit with yellow oil lamps, and it was warm and peaceful, as if the cold and damp weather had no effect on them.
At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the inner room.
This scream did not cause half a wave, and on this day, the guards of the Wei Mansion seemed to be very sluggish.
A group of people dressed in black appeared silently in Xu Wenjue's bedroom, the first one, holding a silver shining short blade, and his footsteps kept approaching.
Xu Wenjue sat on the couch, his expression full of panic.
"Who are you——?
"Butler, butler!"
Qian was wearing purple silk underwear, huddled in the corner of the bed with the quilt, and when he saw the group of black-clothed people approaching, he was so frightened that he screamed, and then shouted like crazy.
Unfortunately, the sound came out of the house and completely dissipated in the wind and rain outside.
At this moment, there was thunder in the dark night sky, and a sudden explosion sounded, and in an instant, the entire courtyard was illuminated as if it were day.
As the face towel slowly pulled off, a familiar face appeared in front of me.
"Tian Ergeng, why are you?"
Xu Wenjue was shocked, he went from fear to anger.
"Are you going to commit rebellion and murder the prince of the dynasty?"
"Guogong...?"
Tian Ergeng was amused, he held a short blade in his hand, and approached step by step:
"Do you know why I let you see that it's me?"
"For the dead do not speak..."
He stared at Xu Wenjue tightly, as long as the other party dared to make the slightest move, he would immediately make a move, so that Xu Wenjue's blood would be splashed on the spot, and there would be no hesitation!
"Thanks to the good deeds done by Wei Guogong, I, the head of the Nanjing Jinyi Guard, who was originally not favored by the emperor, can be transferred back to Beijing."
"You..."
Hearing this, a trace of bad omens appeared in Xu Wenjue's mind, his eyes darkened, and he asked knowingly, but also delayed time:
"What's good?"
"You've got it!"
Tian Ergeng could see at a glance that Xu Wenjue was delaying time.
But he wasn't worried about this, even God seemed to be helping him, and today there was a sudden strong wind and rain, and the temperature plummeted.
At this time, not to mention on the street, there will be no one in the courtyard of the Wei State Mansion, the so-called moon and dark wind and high murder night, Tian Ergeng has always been the best at these black things.
Besides, he also knew that this was his last chance to win back the trust of His Majesty the Emperor, and this matter could not be left behind, and it must be done beautifully. Online eBooks
He didn't plan to say more to Xu Wenjue, holding the knife, slowly approaching, his eyes were cold.
"The emperor's secret decree has been issued, asking me to take you to the underworld to reunite with the old prince and his wife, and the ancestors of your Xu family must be happy to see you, a disloyal and unfilial descendant."
"Little grandpa, are you on the road?"
Speaking of this, Tian Ergeng sneered in his heart, if Xu Da saw Xu Wenjue below, with that person's temper, he was afraid that he would be beaten to death.
It's a pity that I can't see it...
Hearing this, Xu Wenjue understood everything.
He sat down on the couch with his head down, and after a moment he laughed ho-ho-ghost, laughing at his own innocence, thinking that he was hiding from the world, but not paying attention to who the other person was.
The three law divisions are just tools for the emperor to kill people.
If the Emperor of the Apocalypse really knew and wanted to kill himself, he had many means, and he didn't need to resort to the Three Law Divisions at all!
"It's all this woman!"
Xu Wenjue was dazed for a moment, then suddenly knelt on the ground, pointed at Qian, who didn't dare to say a word anymore, and scolded angrily:
"It's all this woman, who likes to be inflammatory, and it's all me who she bewitches! I, I, tomorrow, I will ask Your Majesty to hand over the third battalion of soldiers! ”
As he spoke, he saw that Tian Ergeng was unmoved, and hurriedly said:
"I don't even want the title of Duke of Wei, I will hand it over to Xu Ping'an, this woman is not bad, and she will be filial to the governor to play."
"All the money in the house was given to the governor, calligraphy, painting and antiques, and the governor took it, just to spare my life..."
Tian Ergeng looked at him, and he didn't expect that Xu Wenjue would be such a person.
The superintendent has not only been staring at him for a day or two, a woman like Qian, who is close to him, can turn her head and kick him.
A woman who can kick herself today will be able to kick herself tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow, she will be able to kick the current emperor and the entire Ming Dynasty!
Who else in the world does he dare not kick?
With such a rich promise, it is impossible to say that he is not moved, but Tian Ergeng knows very well in his heart that money is far less than the emperor's trust for a person like him!
Tian Ergeng worked for the emperor in the factory guard system, this did not start with the Apocalypse Dynasty, he had long lost human feelings.
He sneered, turned around and said:
"Kill!"
The group of Jinyi guards who came today are all dead soldiers trained by Tian Ergeng for many years, like emotionless machines, loyal to the royal family and him.
At the sound of an order, everyone stepped forward.
With a sound of breaking the air, Jin Yiwei's quick knife mercilessly passed through Xu Wenjue's wriggling throat, and he fell to the ground holding his neck gushing with blood.
There was still a deep fear and remorse in his eyes.
It didn't take long for the bright red blood to stain a large patch of red, and a fishy smell came, and Qian Shi was dumbfounded, his eyes widened, and he covered his mouth tightly, not daring to make a little more noise.
A tear quietly slipped from the corner of her eye, but it did not arouse the pity of these brocade guards in front of her.
A brocade guard was about to step forward, but as a result, this vicious woman who was not inferior to Xu Wenjue was stopped by Tian Ergeng.
Tian Ergeng stepped forward, pinched her neck, and stared at her struggling in his hands with interest, the more intense she struggled, the more excited he became.
Qian knew that death was coming, and frantically slapped Tian Ergeng's hand, but Tian Ergeng's hand was like an iron tong, and the more he struggled, the tighter he pinched.
Soon, Tian Ergeng lost interest and exerted a little force.
With a "poof", the woman's body fell on the couch.
Before Tian Ergeng left, he also made a little arrangement, so as not to be discovered that Xu Wenjue was killed the next day, arousing unnecessary suspicion.
As for the autopsy, up and down, Zhu Youxiao had already arranged it.
The news circulating in Nanjing the next day would only be what Zhu Youxiao wanted to hear.
Early in the morning, the servants of the Wei Mansion walked into the bedroom, and the scene in front of them made them unforgettable, although they were shocked, they looked at each other, but there was a kind of secret joy.
Ding'anmen Gate in Nanjing, Zhu Youxiao set off to return to Beijing between the flowers and the crowd.
Just then, a piece of news came.
According to the coroner, Xu Wenjue died of a wind on a stormy night, and Qian was missing, and the Jinling government was looking for money.
Zhu Youxiao sighed, his eyes showed unbearableness, and he wiped away his non-existent tears slightly.
He promised in front of everyone that Qian's crime did not involve his family, only Qian was wanted, and if the government traced down Qian's location, he would be punished on the spot, and his head would be hung for three days!
