Chapter 105: Anti-Water
As soon as the butler's words fell, the tailor's wife spat fiercely, pointed at Li Le's nose and scolded, and the contempt and arrogance in her heart were completely written on her face.
And when he heard this tailor woman dare to say this, the housekeeper also laughed at this person's ignorance in his heart, if the eldest lady of their family is really like the young lady of an ordinary family, then it is really a dream.
"Smack!"
A loud slap sounded in the Qiu Tan Garden, and the tailor's eyes widened in shock.
"You...... How dare you hit me?! Don't you know that I am a man who respects His Highness! Believe it or not, when I return to His Highness, I will immediately put you on death row and divide your body into five horses! ”
The tailor's wife fell to the ground with the slap and said angrily, she didn't expect Li Le's seemingly small body to be so heavy that she couldn't stand steadily.
"Okay, then you go and call King Jing over and see what he has to say."
Li Le looked at the tailor and smiled, which really made the person in front of him feel a chill down his spine.
What kind of idea did Chu Jing have when she brought such a person, could it be that Chu Jing's vision was so bad? Or is it that he is testing her?
"Throw her out, don't let Miss Ben look upset, and by the way, go to King Jing's Mansion to reply to His Royal Highness, just say that this tailor is disrespectful to Miss Ben, let King Jing watch it."
Without waiting for the tailor to get up and howl again, Li Le said to the butler, but his eyes did not take half a minute off the tailor's wife.
And these eyes made the tailor woman look frightened, and she wondered for a while whether she was in front of her if it was a young lady who had just passed the court, if it was, then what was the matter with her eyes and murderous aura like a messenger of the underworld......
Since it was Li Lefa, the housekeeper hurried to carry it out, after all, Li Le was respected in this courtyard, and the tailor's wife counted her unlucky, and she just happened to hit the muzzle.
It's just that the poor tailor didn't even understand the situation, and was thrown out of the door by the housekeeper.
"Miss Hui has already thrown the tailor out according to your instructions, and reported to King Jing, I think King Jing will make decisions for you soon."
After the housekeeper drove the tailor out of the house, he came back to report to Li Le.
"This matter is well done, if there is any news about King Jing in the future, the housekeeper will have to report to Miss Ben in time."
Li Le gave Shuang'er a look as he spoke, and the latter immediately understood, took out a bag of broken silver from his sleeve and handed it to the housekeeper. In this house, interests are always the easiest to buy people's hearts.
"Thank you for the reward, the slave is also doing his duty, the tailor is just a pariah, how can she make a lot of noise in the Hou Mansion, or thanks to the eldest lady's decisiveness, this can save the face of the Hou Mansion of the town."
After receiving the reward of this generation, the housekeeper's face blossomed with joy, and then he saluted Li Le, becoming more and more flattering.
However, Li Le didn't want to talk to him too much, with the power of the people in this Hou Mansion, he could do anything, so Li Le didn't pay attention to what the housekeeper said now, just raised his hand and told him to leave Qiu Tan Yuan.
……
At the same time, Mu Changjin also made some progress.
On the same day, after Mu Changjin retreated from King Jing's mansion, he had some discussions with Liu Chao and others, and took some actions in Beijing.
"Master, what if the assassin refuses to take the bait?"
After the past day, Liu Chao looked at Mu Changjin who was still calm at this time worriedly, not that he, who was a guard, could not trust the master's ability, but that he saw that Chu Jing was so concerned about this matter, and he thought that it must have something to do with it.
If this person does something in secret, they will not suffer in the open.
"It doesn't matter."
Seeing Liu Chao so worried, Mu Changjin looked as usual, did not panic in the slightest, just quietly looked at the book in his hand, and his eyes never shifted a point.
After hearing such a reply, Liu Chao's anxiety in his heart was not only reduced but deepened, if Mu Changjin said more and explained all the details of this matter clearly, then he might be a little relieved.
But obviously, Mu Changjin didn't mean to think so.
"If you have so many thoughts in your heart, you will enter the palace with me later, and there are just some things that you need to do."
seemed to be aware of Liu Chao's uneasiness, and after a while, Mu Changjin said to him.
If it was normal, he didn't want to step into this golden cage, but now because of this matter, he had to enter the palace to investigate, and there was Chu Yuesheng in the palace, and he had to ensure her safety.
Even the emperor can sneak in, if he doesn't find out this assassin, if there is a crisis to Chu Yuesheng one day, he is afraid that he will regret it.
As soon as he heard that Mu Changjin was going to take him into the palace, he suddenly became excited.
Those of them who were guards stayed by Mu Changjin's side just to solve his problems, if they could only be anxious and couldn't do anything like just now, then they would feel that they were useless.
It's just that Mu Changjin's "for a while" made Liu Chao wait from morning to afternoon, during which he didn't do anything, just sat in the study and read and wrote, like a person who has no quarrel with the world.
Just when Liu Chao was about to lose his breath, a secret guard suddenly appeared in front of Mu Changjin, and Liu Chao subconsciously put his hand on the handle of the knife in case something happened.
"Master, this is news from over there."
The dark guard knelt down on one knee and saluted Mu Changjin.
At this time, Liu Chao realized that Mu Changjin had not moved for a day, and it turned out that he was waiting for this news.
"Well, well done, get up."
Mu Changjin looked at the content of the note, the corners of his lips raised slightly, it seemed that things were really as he thought.
It's just that in the next moment, something happened suddenly.
The secret guard did not leave after getting up, but instead pulled out a dagger from his personal place, and his figure flashed and rushed straight towards Mu Changjin.
This happened between lightning and flint, and even Liu Chao didn't have time to draw his knife and step forward.
"Master, be careful!"
Liu Chao saw that he couldn't catch up with the figure of the dark guard, so he had to blurt out.
If Mu Changjin was injured because of this, then he would be to blame for his death.
"Die!"
The dark guard's body was extremely fast, his eyes revealed a strong hatred for Mu Changjin, and the dagger in his hand was also dancing vigorously, stabbing at Mu Changjin's fatal place with every blow.
It seems that Mu Changjin has some deep hatred with him, and he must kill him to vent his anger.
Although this secret guard attacked menacingly, Mu Changjin was not anything to mess with, his expression was suddenly sharp, he dodged a blow, and the next moment the palm in his hand gathered qi, which was not as warm as usual.
But in the end, he didn't make a move on the guard, just blindly dodged.
He found that although the dark guard was agile at this time, his eyes were dull, and his eyes were dull, as if someone had controlled his mind.
After discovering this situation, Mu Changjin was a little annoyed in his heart.
Now some people have reached out to him, and they have borrowed the hands of his brothers to try to harm him, thinking that he has not been active in the court for too many days, so some people can't sit still.
However, at the next moment when the secret guard attacked him, the other secret guards hidden in the shadows came down to block the attack for Mu Changjin, obviously these secret guards did not expect that the brothers they worked together for Mu Changjin in the past would assassinate their master today.
"Catch it alive."
After cutting some distance between himself and the secret guard, Mu Changjin pondered for a while and then ordered, although he had heard that someone could control the minds of others in some ways, he had indeed not seen it with his own eyes.
And now that this secret guard has been controlled by others, and he has raised his sword against himself, he must find out what the reason is, otherwise he will only suffer from the enemy in the future.
After hearing Mu Changjin's order, although the attack in the hands of the secret guards was still extremely fierce, they did not attack the fatal place of the person. In this way, it made it more difficult to arrest, and in the end, it took a lot of effort to completely control that person.
"Lock him up in the dungeon for the time being, watch him out, and don't let him die."
Looking at the secret guard who was still twisting his body and trying to escape even if he was loved, Mu Changjin ordered someone to search for poison from his mouth, and gave the order.
In the end, this matter is just an episode, the most important thing is the content of this paper, as long as the preparation over there is foolproof, then other things can begin.
As for this secret guard, after he understands this matter, he will think in detail about how to make him sober up, after all, he also wants to ask who and what method is used to control his mind.
"Master, since that person dares to go against the water, that is the content of the paper, will there be some errors?"
After taking the secret guard to the dungeon, Liu Chao returned to the study with his brows furrowed, looked at Mu Changjin and said. In his opinion, since the person holding this piece of paper has turned against water, it is naturally possible that the content of the paper has been tampered with.
"It doesn't matter, he can't fake the content on this paper, and the developing ink over there can't be fooled by this kind of little trick."
Mu Changjin put away the note, the Developing Ink was a secret treasure he got from a strange person many years ago, so any news he communicated with that side after that, he used this Developing Ink to communicate, so even if the note was robbed, they couldn't see what the content was.
As soon as he heard this, Liu Chao was also relieved, and he was ready to follow Mu Changjin into the palace.
It's just that although this matter is okay, Mu Changjin's expression did not relax.
He had a bad premonition at this time, since the enemy's hand had reached his side, which meant that the opponent's power had developed to a level that was difficult for ordinary people to reach, then there would inevitably be a series of things to find him next.
If it's just for him, I'm afraid it will target the people around him.
"You send someone to deliver a message to Li Le, so that she can be more careful in her actions recently, and the messenger will stay with her directly and protect her secretly."
After thinking about it for a while, Mu Changjin was still not at ease, so he ordered.
"Yes."
After receiving the order, Liu Chao immediately went to make arrangements, and soon sent people out, and they were also ready to leave for the palace.
