Volume 1 Chapter 241 The Secret of the Short Sword
() The prince of Liguo stood up angrily, turned the sword upside down, shook it a few times, and there was nothing, his facial features gradually became hideous, and his gloomy eyes stared at the man in black, "Where's the map?" ”
The man in black was so frightened that his face changed, and he fell to his knees with a thud, "What map, my subordinates don't know." ”
The prince of the country left the country gasped, the expression in his eyes changed, and the killing intent appeared countless times, and it took a long time before he sat down, "You don't know, of course you don't know, this secret has always been the right of only the monarch who left the country." ”
It's not that he doesn't want to kill the subordinates in front of him to vent his anger, but when he kidnapped Nie Linyu, he had already lost some people, and Nie Wang Ye searched everywhere, and inevitably lost some more in the process of evading and escaping, and there were not many of his subordinates who could use it.
I had to endure this.
"Send a message to her, let her continue to verify the news, where is the map in the dagger, there must be no more mistakes!"
The man in black thought that he would definitely die, but he didn't expect the prince to spare himself, and hurriedly said: "Yes, my subordinates will try to pass on the message." ”
The prince of Liguo continued to instruct, "Haven't you also found out the whereabouts of the other sword, inform her that you can withdraw it." ”
The two of them did not specify their names and identities, and the man in black obviously knew who the incomparable prince was talking about, so he kowtowed and got up to do things, leaving only the prince of the country sitting under the lamp, his face full of anger and frustration.
Isn't it providence that only the king of the country can know the secret, but in the end it is known by a concubine like him? He was destined to be regained and departed, and he was destined to ascend to the throne and become a king.
On the day of the departure of the country, he was still young, in fact, he did not remember, this huge secret was almost sealed with the death of the king of the country, it was the will of heaven, the king's close attendants actually learned this secret, and he knew it.
There is a treasure map in the sword, for more than 20 years, he kept this sentence in mind, searched everywhere for the whereabouts of the sword, he didn't know what kind of sword it was, and he didn't know where the treasure map was hidden in the sword.
The sword style is a short sword, there are two of them, and the ruby on the hilt is a mechanism, and when opened, each contains half a map
, put together is a treasure map.
The third generation of monarchs was far-sighted and knew that there was no immortal dynasty in the world, so he secretly buried a batch of gold, silver and jewelry, which was to give his children and grandchildren a way out when they left the country one day and unfortunately perished.
There are two short swords, the monarch and the prince each hold one, but the secret inside can only be known by the monarch, and then tell the prince before he died, but he did not expect that the fifth generation of the monarch who left the country was martyred and died, and the prince had already died in battle, and there was no trustworthy person around him, so he had to tell the secret to the inner servant around him.
However, when the chamberlain finally found the prince who escaped with his life, he was already angry, and he died of anger after struggling to leave this sentence.
"There is a treasure map in the sword," the prince muttered in his voice, picked up the short sword and looked at it again, then threw it on the ground, and said coldly: "Since you have found the sword, where is the map?" ”
Over the years, he has painstakingly searched for all kinds of news, and finally learned that the short sword was sent to the Northern Imperial Palace as a trophy, and the palace was heavily guarded and he could not sneak in, and there was no manpower in the palace.
Fortunately, there is also a pair of stupid sisters, who are probably living too miserably in the Qinglou, and actually believe their own words, believing that they are the last princesses who have left the country, and believing that they will restore their identities after they return to the country.
The prince of Liguo had a cruel smile on his face, fortunately, she was not stupid enough to find out the whereabouts of the two short swords, and after receiving the news, he led people to lurk in the Mu family's garden on the outskirts of Beijing that had been abandoned for many years, pretending to be a ghost while waiting for the opportunity.
The pair of brothers and sisters of the Nie family who didn't know how to die actually came here to explore, but fortunately, they hid deep and met that person again.
The Emperor of the North is also a fool, thinking how powerful he is, but he doesn't know that he has long been surrounded by wolves, and everyone wants to take the opportunity to bite off a piece of meat from him.
After smiling gloomily for a long time, the prince of Liguo changed his face again, where did the map in the short sword go, could it be that this secret was actually known by the Nie family?
But he couldn't do anything, and he could only judge when he got another dagger.
Nie Linyu didn't know anything about these natures, and after dawn, the news of the thieves entering the Nie Palace's mansion gradually spread, and the queen summoned Princess Nie to ask for condolences
For a while, Nie Linyu was at home, receiving relatives and friends who came to comfort him.
Naturally, in addition to relatives and friends, this kind of scene is indispensable to come to curry favor, without exception, put on a sympathetic face, and insincerely say a few words of comfort, Nie Lin Yu coped with a few words at first, and then he didn't want to speak.
Anyway, it doesn't matter if she puts on a stinky face now, her family has just been robbed, and she has met assassins in the temple, if she is happy, it will be a strange thing.
While listening to the daughters of those noblewomen without a match, she thought in her mind, what is so strange about that short sword, is it worth risking to get it back from the prince? Although he may not have come in person, it doesn't matter who he sends, once he is caught and tortured to extract a confession, his hiding place is at risk of being exposed.
The short sword came from the country, and the precision carving was inlaid with gold and jade, and it was a royal article at a glance, and it was still used by the royal family, but with Nie Lin's understanding of the prince leaving the country, he really wouldn't take this risk just for this point.
That's a person who can't afford to be unprofitable, taking risks, and having to be profitable, so what's the benefit?
It's a headache to think about.
Mrs. Fu and Fu Wenshan are here, this is her aunt and cousin, Nie Linyu had to cheer up and chatted with her, these two people naturally did not come to comfort her, but came to see the excitement in the name of condolences, Nie Linyu knew it, but it was just pretending not to know.
Fu Wenshan smirked, "Oh, Sister Yu, I heard that the Qingshui Temple has entered the assassins, and Sister Yu is thinly dressed on this summer night, don't let the assassins look at it." ”
The sound is not small.
Sometimes Nie Linyu simply suspects that this Fu Wenshan is not his grandfather's blood at all, how can he speak so vulgarly?
She sneered, "The third sister's thoughts are really dirty, if the assassin can touch the county lord's room, the guards in the palace will not have to live." ”
Fu Wenshan pursed her lips, looking unconvinced, Nie Linyu didn't bother to pay attention, and only hoped that she would leave quickly.
When Fu Wenshan left, Bi Xi whispered to Nie Linyu: "County Lord, why do I look at the third lady of the Fu family a little strangely, it seems that it is not finished for a long time." ”
"What did you say?" Nie Linyu was shocked.
