Chapter 101: The Spy
Su Xiaran nodded lightly and said, "Go ahead, don't think about playing tricks, if you dare to have strange thoughts, I will definitely let you die an ugly death." ”
The guard, who was kneeling on the ground, agreed, and then walked away. I was afraid that Su Xiaran would suddenly change her mind.
After this person left, Su Xiaran opened his mouth and said to Fang Lan: "Sister Lan'er, do you want to ask why I spared his life?" “
Seeing that Su Xiaran guessed his thoughts, Fang Lan said directly: "I really don't understand what the general does?"
Su Xiaran patiently explained: "I think what the guard said makes sense, it was Yu Sheng who instructed him, he is just a subordinate, and he has no right to choose to do it or not, so if you really want to avenge the people of our General's Mansion, this revenge still lies on Sheng's head, of course that person is also at fault, so let him be used as a chess piece." ”
Only then did Fang Lan understand what Su Xiaran meant, and said, "It's still the general, you have a foresight. This is indeed the most appropriate way to do so. Su Xiaran didn't know why his heart had become so deep now.
Originally, Su Xiaran did want the life of this guard before, but then he thought about it, he was also a poor person. It's better to give him a chance to live. After all, the biggest murderer is Prime Minister Yu.
But fortunately, Su Xiaran had already transferred Xiaolan to Merlin before, otherwise, I don't know what would have happened. If Prime Minister Yu had just found out Xiaolan.
Su Xiaran was also speechless.
Prime Minister Yu, who returned to his prime minister's mansion, was also angry, but he didn't expect Su Xiaran to transfer the boy with the mask away so quickly. However, according to people familiar with the matter, the characteristics of this boy's murder are extremely similar to the blood slave that the elders of the Xuanyun Sect came to arrest before.
Prime Minister Yu is not a fool, and soon linked the two together. If Su Xiaran's secret blood slave hiding can really be exposed, how can Prime Minister Yu still care about his daughter's hatred.
He only wants Su Xiaran to fall now, and he doesn't have any other ideas. Because now Prime Minister Yu obviously feels the emperor's inclination towards Su Xiaran.
In the past, the emperor was very important to the prime minister. But since Su Xiaran appeared, the emperor has not looked for a prime minister for a long time. This makes Prime Minister Yu, who is extremely jealous, how can he bear it.
Now that he knew about the matter between the blood slave and Su Xiaran, he naturally wouldn't miss it. It was when the prime minister was still thinking about how to deal with Su Xiaran. The guards he had abandoned earlier had returned.
The guard was so clever that he stabbed himself with his sword before returning, and then collapsed in front of the Prime Minister's Mansion. said that there was something important to tell the prime minister. When Prime Minister Yu walked out, he saw the seriously injured guard.
Directly let people carry in. Prime Minister Yu said indifferently: "Why did you come back, didn't Qiu Yi want your life?" ”
The wounded guard said intermittently: "She, she didn't want to kill me, but asked me to betray you and deliver the news to her, I didn't agree, I fought with them, it was not easy to escape, bring this news out, they have to find a way to deal with you." ”
Prime Minister Yu looked at him suspiciously and said, "I abandoned you, and you are still loyal to me, aren't you afraid that I will kill you too?" ”
The guard continued: "The Prime Minister's Mansion raised me, I was born as a member of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I died as a ghost of the Prime Minister's Mansion, and I will never betray you. Even if I sacrifice for the Prime Minister's Mansion one day, I don't care. ”
Although Prime Minister Yu didn't fully believe the guard's words, he didn't look deliberately embarrassed. Yu Sheng asked, "What's your name?" ”
The guard lying on the stretcher replied: "My name is Xiaohuzi, and I have been a guard in the Prime Minister's Mansion since I was a child. ”
Yu Sheng nodded, and explained to his subordinates: "Go, first heal Xiaohuzi's injury, arrange for a doctor to treat him, and we will talk about other things in detail after your body recovers." ”
The guard finally stayed in the Prime Minister's Mansion. In fact, he did it very smartly. directly told Prime Minister Yu the task that Su Xiaran had given him. In this way, Yu Zai can become suspicious of him. And so it can also win sympathy.
If he hadn't been clever, he wouldn't have been able to catch the life-saving straw that Su Xiaran gave him.
Prime Minister Yu did not completely eliminate his suspicion of Xiaohuzi, he still sent someone to follow Xiaohuzi's side. After all, it is not unreasonable for Prime Minister Yu to be able to climb and roll above the court for so many years.
Naturally, he is a cunning person like a fox, and he naturally has doubts about the truth of Xiaohuzi's words. But now I don't take such a little person to heart.
If it is really as he said, he is born as a person in the Prime Minister's Mansion, and died as a ghost in the Prime Minister's Mansion. Then he can really be the prime minister's henchman. But this has to go through the test of the prime minister.
Su Xiaran is now figuring out the thoughts of the prime minister in the General's Mansion. If he hadn't been caught this time, he would have found a way to deal with them.
Su Xiaran said to Fang Lan: "Sister Lan'er, remember to be more careful during this time, if he doesn't succeed this time, he will definitely not give up, maybe there will be a big move in a few days." ”
Fang Lan replied: "Don't worry, no matter what tricks he uses, we are all soldiers to cover the water." ”
In fact, the thing that has always worried Su Xiaran is the matter of Xiaolan's identity. After he kills in the market, there will be warriors who are very interested in his killing methods. When the time comes, if the Xuanyun Sect gets the news.
The elders will definitely go out of the mountain to capture Xiaolan again. Moreover, Yu Zai only didn't know about Xiaolan's identity, and Su Xiaran was also uncertain. After all, when Su Xiaran stayed in Xuanyun Sect before, he hadn't heard of the blood slave.
Su Xiaran is also unclear about his popularity in Fenglin City, but Su Xiaran can't directly let people investigate such a thing, so he can only be in a passive situation, waiting for the troublemaker to come to the door by himself.
And Prime Minister Yu in the Prime Minister's Mansion has not been out for a few days, and he was thinking about whether to go directly to the emperor to report Su Xiaran's secret blood slaves.
But when he thought that Su Xiaran was now a big celebrity in front of the emperor, the emperor would definitely not listen to his own words. So this method was denied by Prime Minister Yu.
However, he thought of another method that could also defeat Su Xiaran, that is, the Xuanyun Sect. At that time, the blood slaves were imprisoned in the Xuanyun Sect. When it was lost, several elders of the Xuanyun Sect had dispatched together to capture the blood slaves, but then they couldn't do it.
If the elders of the Xuanyun Sect knew that the Xuanyun Sect's felony blood slave was in Su Xiaran's General's Mansion. The people of the Xuanyun Sect would also punish Su Xiaran, after all, Su Xiaran was a member of the Xuanyun Sect before.
When the matter was revealed, even the emperor couldn't protect Su Xiaran. So in the past few days, Prime Minister Yu has not gone anywhere, and he has been waiting for news from Xuanyun Sect in the Prime Minister's Mansion. A few days ago he had already flown a pigeon to pass the book. The news of the discovery of the blood slave in Fenglin City was spread to the Xuanyun Sect.
and also intentionally or unintentionally pointed the hiding place of the blood slave to the General's Mansion. So now he just had to wait for news from the Xuanyun Sect. I believe that after they know that the blood slave is now showing up to kill people, they will definitely not sit idly by.
The result was the same as what Prime Minister Yu expected in advance, and the Flying Pigeon Biography did indeed reach the Xuanyun Sect. But it was intercepted by the head. Seeing the above content, the head of the house smiled inexplicably and said, "It seems that our General Qiu is in trouble." ”
A seemingly ordinary scholar standing beside the head of the house followed and asked: "I don't know what the head of the house means, could it be that something happened to Qiu Yi, if she really can't be used by us, it is better to directly eradicate her early, so as not to become strong in the future and be difficult to deal with." ”
The head shook his head as he walked and said: "Don't worry, she still has a lot of places that can be used, although she is not too obedient, but who is born to obey others, as long as you make good use of it, it will definitely help us." ”
The scholar on the side said with some confusion: "But she is suspicious of you now, isn't she, if he really finds out that you are not the original head of the Xuanyun Sect at all, how can our plan continue." ”
In fact, the real head of the Xuanyun Sect had died quietly four years ago, but was taken over by the current fake head, but no one knew about this matter.
The head of the sect curled the corners of his lips and said disdainfully: "This little girl does have some cleverness, but she is not mature, even if she really knows that I am not the real head of the sect, what can I do, I have never done anything to hurt the Xuanyun Sect, but the Xuanyun Sect has developed so well in my hands, is it possible that the disciples of the Xuanyun Sect will believe her and not believe me?!" ”
The scholar continued: "But if she finds evidence, what can you do, you have arranged a lot of eyeliner in the Xuanyun Sect in the past few years, and the more eyeliner you have, the easier it is for others to catch the handle." :
In fact, this head has already thought about this problem, and said: "You just don't be impatient, even if everyone really knows that my identity is fake, there is no suitable head of the Xuanyun Sect, isn't it still up to me to be in charge?" ”
The scholar smiled and said, "It seems that you have thought about all the things that should be considered, as long as our plan can be successful, you will return one day, and the Lord will definitely reuse you." ”
As if remembering something again, the scholar continued: "By the way, what happened to Qiu Yi that you said just now, what happened? ”
The head of the sect looked at the note from the flying pigeon, and said with a smile: "The blood slave she took from my forbidden land last time is now killing people in Fenglin City, and her methods are extremely cruel, and I want our elders of Xuanyun Sect to come forward to solve it." ”
Speaking of the blood slave, the scholar said with some displeasure: "Is it the blood slave that the lord likes?" Damn it, you actually let him be rescued by others from the Xuanyun Sect, as long as it takes less than three months, the Lord will be able to completely control him, and this matter will be explained to the Lord yourself after you go back. He was a good seed for murder in the eyes of the Lord. ”
Seeing that the scholar was blaming himself, the head of the house said with a slight anger: "Fan Jian, you'd better put your position clearly, even talking to me like this, I am the main messenger of the whole plan, although you are sent by the Lord, you don't have to point fingers at my affairs." ”
Fan Jian is not a person to bully, and retorted: "Although you are the key point of the whole plan, but the Lord sent me over, naturally I don't worry about you, let me supervise, there are some things you still have a good snack, otherwise if the Lord asks about the blood slave one day, I will see how you explain." ”
