Eastern Capital, East City, Jingkangfang, Tiwei Mansion, not early

"I see."

After listening to the statements of Sogo and others, Zhao Wenxin stroked his beard softly, his face was a little unsightly, he knew why some of the soldiers who came back were suddenly very dissatisfied with the Tiwei Mansion, and their feelings were used as bait for catching big fish.

Jiang Shuo, who was beside him, also completed the record, and he needed to take this case record back, re-transcribe it on the fold, and report it to the Ministry of Officials.

Xiao Chongguang and Lu Yunsheng were also very embarrassed after speaking, and the two of them coughed lightly twice in basically the same way, and then picked up the teacup and took a few sips.

Zhao Wenxin has served in Jingzhao Mansion for many years, and his observation of words and expressions is already perfect, as soon as he saw the subtle expressions of the two guard commanders, he knew what they were thinking, and he also felt that the task was completed at the moment, and there was no need to stay, so he got up and crossed his hands to everyone: "Lord Xiao, Lord Lu, as well as Ji Daxia and Guo Daxia, since the matter is clear, it is time to go back to the errand, and no longer bother." ”

Zhao Wenxin did not dare to slack off after hearing about the deeds of Ji Yun and Guo Ting fighting the assassins, so he would mention them when he said goodbye.

Everyone stood up when they heard this, and Xiao Chongguang said: "Okay, Director Zhao has official business, and it is not convenient for me to keep it, so if I have the opportunity in the future, I will invite the director to drink together." ”

Zhao Wenxin bowed slightly in thanks, then led Jiang Shuo to take a few steps back, and then turned around and walked towards the gate.

Sogo watched Wen Xin step out of the mansion, and couldn't help but secretly regret it in his heart, sighing that it was a pity that he had this great opportunity, and he didn't have the cheekiness to ask the other party about the news that Jingzhao Mansion had gotten.

Ji Yun leaned over to Yunsheng and asked, "Are you really not afraid of offending Jingzhao Mansion by doing this?" When it comes to the defense and people's livelihood management of the Beijing Division, they are the number one. ”

Yunsheng said: "Brother Ji, you don't have to worry, now that there is such a terrible assassination incident in this capital, although we are ordered to handle the case, but their Jingzhao Mansion is also inevitably responsible, we are desperately working here, why not borrow some people from them?" They deserve something to give, and even so, it is we who sacrifice the most. ”

Sogo sighed, "Yes, we are understaffed, they know, and I believe that the people of Jingzhao Mansion will understand my distress." ”

"I'm afraid that the imperial court won't understand," Guo Ting said with his hands on his chest, "The Holy Lord wants us to close the case a year ago, and today is already the thirteenth day of the lunar month, isn't this forcing people to a dead end?" ”

"Actually, Your Majesty just wants to live this year peacefully, with us here, those sinister thieves don't dare to be too presumptuous, I'm afraid I'm only afraid of ······" Sogo paused, his eyes full of concern, "They won't let us have a good year." ”

Yun Sheng was shocked when he heard this: "You mean, that group of assassins will launch a large-scale operation against the Eastern Capital a year ago. ”

"That's just my guess, but if there really is such a day, it won't be something that we guards can stop, so we must unite all the forces we can fight for, just in case."

Just when everyone was talking hotly in the hall, the guard guarding the door hurriedly came and knelt down and said: "The two leaders, the prime minister's guard Cao Zixiao came and said that he had received the holy edict. ”

"Holy Commandment?"

Everyone present was stunned when they heard this, and finally Lu Yunsheng couldn't help but sneer: "This is unusually tight, just carried the corpse back from us in the morning, and sent the holy decree to the Tiwei Mansion in the afternoon, it is really a courtesy." ”

"Don't talk nonsense," Xiao Chongguang reprimanded, then looked at Natiwei and said, "Please let him in." ”

"Whoa."

After a short time, the guard led Cao Zixiao to the hall.

Xiao Chongguang stepped forward and said, "Escort Cao, I didn't expect us to meet so soon." ”

Cao Zixiao also saluted: "If it weren't for the order, I don't know when I would be able to come to this Tiwei Mansion, but now when I see it, although it is not magnificent, it is also the most atmospheric." ”

"Escort Cao is polite." Sogo smiled.

At this time, Cao Zixiao took out Liang Ziqing's golden seal from his arms, held it in his hand, and said loudly: "Holy Command, Xiao Chongguang listens to the order!" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone, including Xiao Chongguang, knelt down towards the golden seal, everyone knew that the golden seal represented Emperor Chu, not a person in the palace, only with the golden seal in his hand, he could only make a count.

Sogo said with his crossed hands in a low voice: "Chen Xiao Chongguang bowed and asked the Holy Bow." ”

Zi Xiao raised his head and said, "I am an." His Majesty's dictation, it is rumored that Xiao Chongguang is entering the palace tomorrow, to the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, I will meet with the Qing, there must be no mistake, and I will do this. ”

Sogo said in a loud voice: "Minister Xiao Chongguang is grateful!" Long live my emperor, long live, long live! ”

"Captain Xiao, the oracle has been completed, please get up." Cao Zixiao put away the Golden Seal Dao.

Xiao Chongguang and the others got up when they heard this, and Sogo was full of doubts: "Cao Guard, I still don't understand, what happened when the saint sent me into the palace?" ”

Cao Zixiao said with a smile: "Xiao Weichang said that I laughed, I am just the prime minister's guard, not the internal guard of the saint, and the sound of heaven is unpredictable, how can I know the meaning of the saint?" ”

Only then did Sogo realize that he was doing too much, and he laughed at himself: "It's me who is too impatient." ”

"In short, since the Holy One wants to see you, and you haven't made a mistake, it must not be a bad thing." Zi Xiao said to him forgivingly.

"That's just as well."

The Imperial City of the Eastern Capital Jingning Palace is not at the beginning

"It's good that you can come back safely, otherwise I really don't know how to explain to Uncle Tang Wang."

King Ning Song Mo personally handed the teacup to Xue Shaochen, the little Tang King who had just come to his bedroom.

Before Shaochen could take a sip of tea, Song Mo couldn't help but ask curiously, "How is it?" Why is that guy looking for you? How did you reconcile him? ”

Xue Shaochen took a sip of tea before he sighed and said, "Alas! It's all my men, it's so hateful! Relying on my entourage, I went to rob the gift that Wei Xiaolin's brother gave to his master, and came back to tell me that it was the robber's dirty silver, which was taken away by their chivalrous deeds, I believed it was true, didn't care about him, and came directly to the Eastern Capital, Wei Xiaolin thought I did it, so he chased it to the Eastern Capital, and asked me for an explanation, and I immediately signed a letter to him, and asked him to take it back to Qingzhou to retrieve his silver. ”

"So that's the case," Song Mo nodded, and then patted Shaochen's thigh and said: "By the way, Shaochen, the kind of evil servants you said must not be kept, and after you go back after the winter festival, you must drive them away, otherwise, you will have to lose your reputation in the future." ”

Xue Shaochen smiled: "Don't worry, the first thing I will do when I go back is to let them go!" ”

"That's right! Let them watch others celebrate the New Year, but they themselves sleep on the streets! Hahahaha! Song Mo clapped his hands and laughed.

At this moment, Xue Shaochen suddenly felt that a cold true qi was released from his dantian, and it spread to his whole body, soaking through the bone marrow, making his body feel as painful as falling into an ice cave, and he couldn't help but tremble all over, his brows were tightly locked, and cold sweat broke out.

Song Mo noticed his ugly face and exclaimed, "Shaochen, what's wrong with you?" Feeling unwell? ”

Xue Shaochen pretended to smile and said, "I······ I'm fine······ Maybe the food at noon is not very appetizing······ A little stomach ache····· I'll go to Gong first. ”

Song Mo breathed a sigh of relief at this time: "You scared me to death, I can hold back the feeling of terminal illness when I hold my stomach, go quickly, just turn right." ”

Xue Shaochen made a play and covered his stomach and said, "Okay, I'm out of company." ”

After speaking, he rushed out of the palace like the wind, and according to what Song Mill said, he came to the clean room full of bedpans, and only here was no one to disturb him.

He clasped the door of the room, then vacated a vacant space, and immediately sat cross-legged, breathing luck, wanting to use the Vajra True Qi that he had practiced since childhood, to force the chaotic cold qi back into the dantian, but this cold Qi was also very strong, but it was slightly blocked by the Vajra True Qi The speed of spreading, and not only was it not suppressed, but it became more and more intense, as if it was about to assimilate the Vajra Qi.

If there were others present at this time, they would definitely be surprised to find that Xue Shaochen's body began to slowly turn purple-black, first blood vessels, and then spread to the surface of other skins.

Xue Shaochen was shocked, his eyes turned back and forth in his eye sockets a few times, and he instantly remembered how to deal with it in his heart, and immediately recovered the true qi of King Kong, and let the cold qi run around in his body, and when the belt flowed to his hands, he immediately operated the internal force, firmly contained the cold qi on his arm, and merged it into one, using his own internal force as a lure to guide the cold qi, and slowly returned to the dantian, and his skin slowly changed from purple and black to normal complexion.

Xue Shaochen exhaled lightly, opened his eyes, and thought to himself: "It seems that my Five Poisons Evil Skill is about to break through the bottleneck of one layer again, but unfortunately this palace is not a place to practice, otherwise, I will be able to reach the sixth layer of this skill now." ”

It turned out that in addition to the "King Kong Demon Suppression Divine Skill" practiced in Xuanyin Temple, Xue Shaochen also practiced a strange martial art called "Five Poisonous Evil Skills".

It turned out that in the winter of the year when Shaochen was twelve years old, he went out to Lianyunfeng to hunt, but found a seriously injured and dying old man in purple in the depths of the woods, he saw that the old man was pitiful, so he rescued him, brought him back to the palace, invited the house physician, and treated him, it took three days to save the old man from the hands of the Lord of Yama.

The Five Poisons and Evil Exercises, as the name suggests, are a kind of evil and evil poison exercises, which require the collection of centipedes, poisonous snakes, scorpions, geckos, and toads, and soak their venom all over the body, so that their true qi is infected with this poisonous gas, and gather in the dantian, so that they can be collected and released freely like other martial arts, but the process is extremely painful.

Therefore, practicing this skill, with its own toxicity, the body moves like a swift wind and thunder, the strength can break the rock and break the gold, surprise, attack it unprepared, in the fastest and most ruthless way, attack the enemy's vital point, can be fist and palm, but it is still based on the claw method, as long as it rubs or scratches a little flesh and skin of the other party, it can make Peter Deng poisoned and killed, very insidious.

Xue Shaochen took a fancy to the fact that the "Five Poisonous Evil Skills" could quickly kill the enemy, so he worshipped the old man as his teacher and practiced this extremely vicious evil skill.
