The Imperial City of the Eastern Capital, Ziwei Palace, at the end of noon

Ziwei Palace and the East Palace are not far away, because the current queen, that is, the prince's biological mother lives here, at this time, the prince and King Huai knelt under the hall, Queen Jiang wore a gorgeous gold embroidered red robe, wearing a golden hairpin hosta, leaning on the main seat, she is about forty years old, but she still has the demeanor of youth, but she is much more mature than before, and has the demeanor of the mother's world.

At this time, the queen's face was gloomy, her willow eyebrows were upside down, and her phoenix eyes said with disgust: "You two really don't let the queen mother worry!" One went hunting in the suburbs and shot the woodcutter who went into the mountains to cut wood as a wild boar, and the other gathered the minister in Dongshi, I don't know what to do, if you let your father know, you must be punished severely! ”

"Qi'er is guilty, but Erchen has already compensated the family with silver taels." Huaiwang Song Qi lowered his head, and his tone was a little aggrieved.

The queen said angrily: "You are embarrassed to say, if it weren't for the internal guards of the palace to watch you all the way, would you still want to kill people and kill you." ”

"Qi'er doesn't dare." Song Qi shook his head like a rattle.

"The retainer is guilty, and the retainer should not go out of the palace to meet with the minister without authorization." Prince Song Yu also crossed his hands to admit his mistake.

Empress Jiang said: "Yu'er, this palace knows that you are fighting with Liang Xiang, you grow up, and this palace can't control you a lot, but this palace still wants to say something, after all, Liang is still a master and apprentice relationship with you at the beginning, why can't you get along with Liang Xiang?" If you take the initiative to show favor, maybe Liang Xiang will be moved by you and change his mind, and he will naturally come to assist you and help you ascend the throne. Liang Xiang is talented and still young, your father has praised him more than once, and he will be the pillar of the country in the future. ”

"Don't say anything about the queen mother," Song Yu said in a deep voice, "Don't say that Erchen and Liang Xiang have reached the point of incompatibility, even if there is room for maneuver, Erchen doesn't despise associating with people like Liang Xiang, ten years ago, Erchen can't forget it for the rest of his life, and he can't let it go, and in the future, Erchen and Liang Xiang can only save one of them." ”

"You······ Alas, forget it," Empress Jiang sighed faintly, "You still have to make your own decisions about these things." ”

"However, Erchen still wants to ask, who informed the queen mother of this?" Song Yu suddenly raised his head and looked at Empress Jiang.

"What? Do you suspect that the queen mother is colluding with Liang? Empress Jiang said angrily.

Song Yu hurriedly bowed his head and said, "Erchen doesn't dare, Erchen is just curious." ”

Jiang Hou said: "What kind of government can directly inform the royal family, you think about it yourself." ”

"Ming, Jing, Si." Song Yu squinted slightly, and said word by word.

East Capital West City Tai'an Fang Qingle Zhai is not at the beginning

As Xiao Chongguang expected, Wu Sheng, the lord of Qingle Zhai, was killed by a group of masked men three quarters of an hour before they arrived.

At that time, Wu Sheng was counting last night's income in the account room, and there was a sudden commotion outside, mixed with various objects broken and screaming sounds, he went out to see, only to see five masked men with knives broke in, and killed three guards, two art girls, the masked man saw Wu Sheng, and rushed up, poor Boss Wu was hacked to death by the assassins outside the account room before he could tell what was going on. When the group of Assassins saw that they had succeeded in assassinating their target, they immediately left.

"Hateful!" Xiao Chongguang slammed his fist on the ground, he only blamed himself for waking up too late, if he had noticed it earlier, it would not be the current situation.

Wu Sheng was about fifty years old, his body was slightly fat, he had a big belly, and he was covered with knife wounds all over his body at the moment, and the blue robe on his body was soaked in blood, and he fell on his back outside the door of the account room.

Lu Yunsheng asked the surviving steward of Qingle Zhai: "In the past few days, what abnormal behavior has your fasting master had?" Or is there some mysterious person approaching him? ”

The steward was in his early sixties, thin and with a long white beard.

He thought for a while, and finally said: "I only remember that a few days ago, Lord Wu Zhai always said that someone was looking for him to go out, and entrusted me with all the big and small things in the fast to take care of, and every time he came back, he had a sad face, and it was not until after the fifth day of the new year that he began to stop going out frequently, and became the same as usual, happy all day long." The lord of the fast also planned to take the old lady from the countryside to the imperial capital for the New Year, but he didn't expect to suffer such a catastrophe, alas······"

"Do you know who Boss Wu is going to see?"

"I asked about it at the beginning, but the fasting master kept silent, and I didn't dare to continue asking."

At this time, a group of white-clothed armor soldiers rushed in and surrounded Qingle Zhai, led by a man in his thirties, wearing blue and black iron armor and a black silk crown hat.

Li Jin is a powerful character in the Spiegel Division, he is vigorous and resolute, ruthless and decisive, and strong in martial arts. Some time ago, I was sent to Yuzhou to perform official duties, but I didn't expect to rush back so soon.

"Bring all the people of Qingle Zhai back to the Spiegel Division and strictly review them!" Li Jin ordered loudly.

"Whoa!"

The white-clothed soldiers shouted and began to arrest people, so that some of the artists, servants, and thugs of the courtyard scattered and fled, and some collapsed to the ground.

"What do you do? Stop me! ”

Xiao Chongguang shouted angrily, and then ran forward, kicking a white-clothed armor soldier to the ground, and the rest of the armor soldiers pulled out their sharp knives to guard when they saw this.

Li Jin didn't say a word, flew forward, and struck at Xiao Chongguang with a wave of his palm!

Sogo snorted coldly, stretched out his right arm to block, and at the same time slammed his fist into the opponent's stomach, Li Jin raised his knee to block it, and raised his other hand to push his elbow against Sogo's chin! Sogo also slapped his elbow away with his left hand.

The two fought, dozens of moves back and forth, and finally Li Jin, a few steps back, kicked up the wooden table in front of him and hit Xiao Chongguang, Sogo immediately swung his knife, directly split the long table into two sections, Li Jin took the opportunity to stab the sword forward, Sogo quickly retreated, Li Jin forced forward without giving an inch, seeing that the tip of the sword almost hit his chest, Xiao Chongguang gritted his teeth and danced the knife to block Li Jin's offensive.

"A Thousand Illusions of Sword Shadows!"

Li Jin shouted, opened and closed the long sword in his hand, and in an instant, he turned into countless afterimages of his debut, Xiao Chongguang only felt that hundreds of swords suddenly appeared in front of him, and they were coming towards him, he didn't dare to fight, and if he was slightly wrong, he would be cut by his real body, and he could only keep retreating.

At this time, with a "click" of his heels, Xiao Chongguang knew that he had been forced into a corner, and the sword shadows in the sky also hit like a storm at the same time!

"Drink!"

Li Jin saw the opportunity, his right hand trembled slightly, and the true body of the long sword in his hand was actually the afterimage that slashed at Sogo's neck!

Sogo had already heard the sound of the wind breaking when the sword was swinging, and immediately stood up with the sword from the bottom up, but when he heard a crisp sound of "bang", the attack of the longsword was just blocked by Sogo's sabre.

Although this attack was wrapped in an overwhelming impact, Xiao Chongguang stood as if it had taken root under his feet.

Li Jin had no choice but to withdraw from the battle circle, and then said: "Lord Xiao's martial arts are really extraordinary, you can predict my thousands of illusory sword shadows in advance, my move, except for He Sicheng, you are the second one who can block it." Admire, admire, admire. ”

Xiao Chongguang shouted with his sword: "Li Jin! You and I are officials in the same dynasty, and you are really moving! You also used your own fame skills, it seems that you really plan to kill me! ”

Li Jin smiled: "Don't dare, don't dare, in the future, I just want to try Lord Xiao's martial arts, if Lord Xiao can't stop it, I will stop immediately." ”

How could such an offensive be so easy to stop?

Xiao Chongguang secretly said in his heart, but he didn't say it, because Spiegel has always been arrogant and obedient in doing things, if you break it, Li Jin will instead say that he is making a big fuss and making something out of nothing. After all, only the parties concerned know about this kind of thing.

"However, Lord Xiao, if you attack my Spiegel Guard, how can this account be calculated?" Li Jin's tone hardened, and he stared at Sogo Dao.

Sogo snorted and said, "Obviously, it was your Spiegel Division who arrested people without any evidence, but they asked me about it." ”

Li Jin said: "The secret agent buried here by the Spiegel Division witnessed the case and came back to report that I came to extract the prisoner on the order of He Sicheng, may I ask Lord Xiao, why is this not possible?" ”

Xiao Chongguang sneered: "What a prisoner, the prisoner you want to arrest, I'm afraid he would have run away ten kilometers away by now, what does it have to do with the people of Qingle Zhai?" ”

Li Jin said: "I know that the murderer has long since escaped, but who can guarantee that no one in Qingle Zhai colluded with the prisoner?" I only took them back for interrogation, and if there was no problem, I would naturally release them, and we in Spiegel would not wronged a good person, nor would we let go of any bad person. ”

Xiao Chongguang really wanted to say, "You should say these high-sounding words to the saint", but he still held back, after all, this passage is taboo.

He took a deep breath, and then said, "Even if you want to arrest someone, this matter should be handled by our Tiwei Mansion, did you Mingjing Division cross the line?" ”

Li Jin said: "I don't know if I don't cross the line, I'm just acting on orders." ”

"What if I don't let it?" Xiao Chongguang said in a deep voice.

Li Jin slowly raised his long sword: "Then I have to offend." ”

After saying this, the white-clothed armor soldiers around him also clenched the sharp knives in their hands, and Lu Yunsheng also pulled out his saber with a "swish", and the atmosphere immediately became tense.

"Lord Guo is here!"

Just when the two sides were preparing to fight, Jingzhao Yin Guo Siyuan came in person with a group of Jingzhao Mansion troops, he quickly stepped forward and waved his hand again and again: "Don't do it, you two, so as not to hurt the harmony." ”

He faced Xiao Chongguang and said, "Lord Xiao, it's all for the sake of handling cases, and you can't make conflicts because of this." ”

Xiao Chongguang said angrily: "This matter should have been handled by the Tiwei Mansion, and it was their Spiegel Division who was unreasonable first!" ”

Li Jin immediately retorted: "Li is just on order, if you have anything to say, you can go to my Spiegel Division and talk to He Sicheng!" ”

Guo Siyuan intervened between the two and said: "Okay, okay, you don't have to worry about Qingle Zhai, my Jingzhao Mansion will take care of it." ”
