"How so!"

The strong man was so frightened that he had no chance to block or avoid it, because the strong palm was already attached to his back!

Xiao Chongguang's palm exerted force, and the strong man felt that he had been hit by a falling rock from a high altitude, and he was directly knocked over, and there was a scene where he was vomiting blood and fell to the ground.

The guards rushed forward and captured him alive with the hemp rope they had prepared.

"What kind of kung fu did you learn?" The strong man was extremely unwilling.

Xiao Chongguang said coldly: "You don't need to know, from now on, what you have to do is to cooperate with us and investigate the assassination cases these days." ”

The strong man looked up to the sky and laughed: "Hahaha! Since I have joined the Assassins, I already have the heart of death, and other things," he stared at Xiao Chongguang with a playful look, "You never want to know, just wait, we won't let you go." ”

After that, the strong man made a "grunt" in his throat, as if he had swallowed something.

"Not good!"

Sogo exclaimed, and quickly stepped forward to choke the other party's neck, but it was too late, only to see the strong man roll his eyes, green liquid flowing from the corner of his mouth, and he was already out of breath.

"Captain Wei, he ······" A young Tiwei said suspiciously.

Xiao Chongguang sighed: "At the beginning of his fight, he had poison in his mouth, and now that he is arrested, he immediately committed suicide by taking poison." ”

It turns out that there are many assassins who dare to die today, and when they are unfortunately arrested, they will immediately pry open the wire with their teeth, bite through the wax coat and swallow the poison, so as to protect the identity and secrets of their employers.

Xiao Chongguang looked around, and in addition to the assassins on the ground, there were also five guards who had died.

He said with a sad face: "Xiao Liu'er, Ma Ben, Wang Tao, you stay, find a cart, and bring back the remains of the brothers." By the way, the body of this strong man will also be brought back to the morgue, and I will still be useful. Xiao Chongguang said to three of the people who came around, "The rest of me will go to Yihefang with me and meet the brothers over there!" ”

"Whoa!"

Dongdu Dongshi Qingpingfang Cuiting Zhai Zichu

He Qian sat cross-legged on the mat and fiddled with a red sandalwood box in his hand.

The box is carved with the pattern of the cloud crane pine forest and inlaid with small grains of yellow colored stone, which looks delicate and valuable, not to mention the contents inside, this box alone is not something that ordinary people can afford.

At this time, the wooden door was slowly opened, and it was still the armor soldier who was dressed as a civilian before, and he bowed with his hands and said, "Mr. He, your distinguished guest has arrived." ”

"Invite him in." He Qian smiled happily.

"Whoa."

The armorer turned and withdrew, and in a few moments brought a man in a black cloak into the Peony House.

"You go out, you are guarded, and no one is allowed to walk around the peony house at will." He Qian ordered.

"Yes."

The armor immediately closed the wooden door, and He Qian immediately knelt down to the black cloaked man's fork and said, "Minister He Qian pays a visit to His Royal Highness King Xin." ”

The man took off his cloak to cover his face, revealing his heroic face—this man was Song Lin, the king of letters.

"Hey, you don't have to be polite, we can call each other brothers in private." Song Lin smiled and helped He Qian up and said.

Lian Jing is He Qian's expression, and now only Song Lin dares to call him so.

"Your Highness, the title is the title, and the courtesy of the monarch and the minister cannot be abolished, this is the law of the country." He Qian is colorful.

Song Lin shook his head and smiled: "You, you, even in private, you still can't change the stinky problem of being Si Cheng." ”

The two sat opposite each other, He Qian poured tea for Song Lin, and asked, "I don't know why Your Highness is late this time?" ”

"Alas, everything went according to plan, but I didn't expect that after the birthday banquet, my father suddenly visited, fortunately, this king coped with it wittily, otherwise, my father would not have been released from house arrest so quickly, of course, I think he was happy at the banquet, which is also one thing." Song Lin sighed and said slowly.

In fact, Song Lin didn't want to be released so early, he didn't want to be known about many private matters, and if he was placed under house arrest, except for the guards and Emperor Chu, no one else could enter and leave at will, and he didn't have to attend any banquets, such as this birthday banquet, which was the best protection for him.

The internal guard's martial arts are not as good as Song Lin's, so he is completely able to enter and leave the Hui'an Palace all day without knowing and unknowing, and do whatever he wants.

"From this point of view, Your Majesty still loves His Highness very much." He Qian said with a smile.

Song Lin smiled and waved his hand and said: "The deep courtyard of the palace, the changes are treacherous, the yang strategy is conspiratorial, and it is difficult to distinguish the truth from the false, even if this king is favored for a while now, maybe he will be surpassed by the prince tomorrow." ”

He Qian said: "That's different, His Royal Highness has the escort of the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister is His Majesty's most trusted person, but it can really be said that he is under one person, above ten thousand people, and he is blowing the wind for His Majesty, and the throne will definitely be His Highness in the future." ”

Song Lin pondered for a moment and said: "This king is telling you the truth, in fact, this is what this king is most worried about. Even if the prime minister is the teacher of this king, he is worried, and if I am fortunate enough to succeed to the throne in the future, it is difficult to guarantee that he does not have the ambition to control the government. ”

"Although the prime minister is in a high position, he never flies high, but is polite and virtuous, and treats his people well, and it is difficult to have this heart when he thinks about it." He Qian commented.

"This is the most important thing," Song Lin did not approve, "He recruits party henchmen, broadens the hearts of the people, and is an official, and if this king wants to cut his power in the future, I am afraid he will not find an excuse." ”

He Qian smiled: "Your Highness is really worried. ”

Song Lin took a sip of tea, and then said, "Having said so much, did you bring the goods?" ”

"It's nature."

He Qian placed the sandalwood box next to his seat on the table, and then made a "please" gesture.

Song Lin gently opened the sandalwood box, and there was a silk cloth inside, and a thick, crystal clear powder was piled on top of the cloth. As soon as he saw these transparent powders, his eyes instantly became greedy, and he muttered, "Since the last time I used it up to defeat the crown prince and the king of Huai, this king hasn't sucked it for a long time. Those two guys are really wasteful to harm the king directly. ”

He Qian smiled and said, "These ice stone scatters were just obtained by His Majesty yesterday, and they are still fresh. ”

It turned out that Song Lin's sudden increase in his strength before was not because of those black qi-boosting pills, but because of these ice stone powders, this drug, in addition to making people enhance their skills for a while, also has a hallucinogenic effect, once inhaled, it will make people feel fluttering. But the side effects are also enormous.

Song Lin covered the wooden box with a "bang", and thanked He Qian repeatedly: "Lian Jing, you are really the benefactor of this king, not only taught this king to use an uncommon troupe in the palace to win the favor of his father and queen, but also provided this king with ice stone powder every month, this king really doesn't know how to thank you." ”

He Qian crossed his hands and said: "This is what your subordinates should do, this is their duty." ”

"No, no, no, this king must promise you one thing, honest and respectful, just say, no matter what happens, only this king can do it, and it will definitely be done." Song Lin said with a smile on his face.

He Qian rolled his eyes and said, "The minister really has something to ask for." ”

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Song Lin was very happy, and at the same time, his eyes looked at the sandalwood box again, as if only He Qian took the initiative to ask for it, and he was relieved to accept this thing.

He Qian got up and closed the window tightly, then moved to Song Lin's side, and whispered in his ear.

When Song Lin heard this, his face was a little embarrassed: "Although this matter is easy for this king, after all, it involves the palace, and this king does not dare to agree easily, and I bother to ask Lian Jing to tell me, what is the so-called matter?" ”

He Qian replied: "Your Majesty has been in office for many years, and I have not given any help to my hometown fathers, just because a few days ago, a letter came from the township, saying that I wanted to contact this matter, but unfortunately His Majesty is working in the Spiegel Division, and it is not the Ministry of Etiquette, nor the Ministry of Officials, and this matter is too strict, so it is ······."

Song Lin laughed and said, "Hahaha! Okay, I approved this matter, and with the order of this king, why should he be polite and the second ministry agreed. ”

He Qian said happily: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness! ”

The eastern capital of Dongshi Yihefang Zichu

Xiao Chongguang led his men and horses to Yihefang, originally wanting to see if the enemy had been eliminated and whether Guo Ting and the others needed help, but the scene in front of him made him stunned.

I saw several carriages parked at the place where Guo Ting and the others had just fought, and the six officials and their servants surrounded Guo Ting, Ji Yun and the others, as if they were arguing about something.

Xiao Chongguang stepped forward and only heard one of the second-grade officials reprimand: "Why are you on an errand? Brought the battle to the door of the official's house? Why don't you lead these thieves to a place where no one is around? ”

"That's it! How frustrating it is to die at home! Another official chimed in.

"You guards, did you do it on purpose?"

"Do you know, our children are scared and crying!"

"This ground is covered with blood, have you licked it clean?"

"With so many corpses lying here, are you deliberately not letting this official sleep well!"

“······”

It turned out that six of these officials had returned from the palace, and it happened that the place where Guo Ting and the others had fought with the assassins was not far from their mansion, so as soon as they came back, they saw blood and corpses all over the ground, and they were so frightened that they hurried home to see what was going on.

"What's going on? What's going on? Ladies and gentlemen, stop arguing! ”

Xiao Chongguang got into the crowd and stopped their quarrel, and Ji Yun immediately explained the whole story to Sogo.

An official said: "Chief Xiao, you came just in time, just say, how to deal with this matter?" ”

"Yes, give us an explanation!" Another official chimed in.

Xiao Chongguang swept towards them with cold eyes, and said coldly: "Say? Lao Tzu's people use their lives to protect the safety of your family, what more do you want! ”
