In the Yamen of the Admiral of the Nine Gates, Li Baihua was looking at the person sitting under him with displeasure on his face.

"I said what bad ideas you all gave me, I lost face twice, and this time I lost my face. Can you do things more reliably in the future? ”

The person sitting at the head of him smiled bitterly and said: "My lord, this kid's life is too good, he caught it last time, but the holy decree suddenly appeared, saving his ass, this time it is also strange, who would have expected Liu Shouyou to wear a pair of pants with him?" ”

"They are all Jinyiwei, of course they wear a pair of pants, don't look at their internal friction, they can still unite against the outside, otherwise Lord Zuodu Yushi will not be forced to die."

Li Baihua said, looking at his guest with disgust.

His guest was none other than Xing Wanjun, the head arrester of the Criminal Department.

For Li Baihua, Xing Wanjun is nothing, but the ancestors of the Xing family's generation can turn their hands into clouds and turn their hands into rain, and they have great energy in the capital, and Li Baihua is also in awe of this ancestor of the Xing family.

Xing Wanjun came on behalf of his ancestors, and first sent a silver ticket of 10,000 taels of silver, not asking Li Baihua to do anything, only asking Li Baihua to catch the situation, and then locked up in the prison of the Criminal Department for two or three days, Xing Wanjun did not believe that he could not kill this kid.

"I said Xiao Xing, what is the big deal with your Xing family, do you have to try to kill him?" Li Baihua asked.

"My lord, now the people in the capital who want to kill him can line up in a long line, enough to fill the royal street, there are too many reasons." Xing Wanjun said this, trying to hide his true intentions.

Li Baihua sighed, he had nothing to do with the situation, and he didn't want to wade into this troubled water, this time one was for a bribe of 10,000 taels of silver, and the other was to give the ancestors of the Xing family a face, which can be regarded as a favor, and it may be useful to others in the future.

In officialdom, favors are always more effective than silver.

"Xiao Xing, you go back and tell the old gentleman, it's not that I don't do my best, but there is really no good way. You take this silver ticket back. Li Baihua returned the silver ticket with some pain.

"My lord, the things sent by the Xing family have never been brought back. Although the adult said that he didn't catch it, it was his fate, but the adult did his best, and our Xing family thanked the adult, and we owe the adult a favor. Xing Wanjun said boldly.

"Okay then, let's see if there's a chance in the future." Li Baihua sighed and took the silver ticket back.

What he cares about most is that Xing Wanjun said that the Xing family owes him a favor, which is worth more than 10,000 taels of silver tickets.

Xing Wanjun came out of the Yamen of the Admiral of the Nine Gates and joined his family who were waiting for him outside.

"How's it going, how is going on in Shuntianfu?" He asked.

"Second master, there's no drama there, they see that Master Li is frustrated here, and they don't dare to take care of this matter at all. Our people hit a soft nail. A family member said.

"A group of bears pack goods, how can these guts become high-ranking officials, it's better to have no eggs." Xing Wanjun scolded angrily.

"Second master, they have eggs, which are used to play with women and give birth, not for doing things." A family member laughed.

Several family members made vulgar jokes, but Xing Wanjun was amused.

"By the way, didn't I hear that a few people were secretly contacting each other, saying that if they had enough money, they would be able to cut off the kid's head? Have you inquired about this? Xing Wanjun asked.

"Second master, according to the small one, let's not have anything to do with those people, we inquired, those mysterious people are very likely to be the Qin criminals that Master Shangshu asked you to arrest."

"What, they still dare to stay in the capital? And dare to operate in the shadows? Xing Wanjun was shocked.

"Why don't you dare, people call art masters bold, and they are operating under the nose of the government, and no one can catch them. However, we just don't arrest them, and we don't want to get involved with them. A family member said.

It was late at night, and there was only the light of some lanterns in the streets, which were night watchmen and guards.

When these people saw someone walking on the street, they came to check, and when they saw that it was a lantern from the Criminal Department, they quickly slipped away.

"I'll go back and report to my ancestors to see if I want to contact these people. Now that kid's enemy is my friend, and if I don't get rid of that kid for a day, I'll be in a panic every day. Xing Wanjun said viciously.

"Grandma's, who's cursing me again?" He was drinking, and he sneezed and scolded.

"Of course it's the people you bombed away, it's strange that they don't scold you behind their backs."

Xiao Nier was drinking and eating with her, and Zhou Dingcheng was also having fun.

"It's not necessarily them, now there are not a thousand but eight hundred people in the city who curse you every day, you are now hated by ten thousand people, be careful." Zhou Dingcheng gloated.

"Whatever, with their little skill, don't think about what to do to me with a curse." Besides, he disdainfully said.

He wasn't talking nonsense, he did feel as if someone was shouting his name somewhere in the air, and with a bitter resentment, and it was indeed the power of the curse.

"They're not just cursing you, they're also debating how to get rid of you."

At this time, Murong Yanran and Xiaojun suddenly walked in.

Several people in the room were stunned, and they couldn't imagine that Murong Yanran and Xiaojun would appear together.

Usually there is nothing important and it won't disturb Murong Yanran's cultivation, so I don't know when she went out.

"Did you hear anything?" Besides, I know they must have something to say.

"Someone is secretly selling your head." Jun smiled proudly, then sat down at the table without seeing anything, and poured himself a glass of wine and drank it.

"Sell my head? How to sell it, my head is still here. "Besides, it's a little strange to touch your head.

"That's what these lambs do, they sell your head as a target, and if someone gives them enough money, they will give your head to the man who bought it." Murong Yanran said.

"What? These people are really lacking in morality, smoking, giving birth to a child, and not being cut by a thousand cuts. Xiao Nier was annoyed and anxious, and squirted out in one breath.

"We quietly checked, and it seems to be those assassins." Murong Yanran said.

"What? Those bastards again. ”

Besides, his stomach is about to explode, these bastards actually sold his head as futures, who said that high-end economics can't be self-taught? These people can get PhDs in economics.

"Who are these people? Why do they hate my family so much? Xiao Nier looked back and was a little scared.

"They took over the assassination of Childe, but they failed to kill them several times, but instead lost three good hands, that is, the three heads that were placed in front of the door a few days ago. Perhaps the group of Assassins had received a death order and could not return until they completed this mission, so they remained in the capital, waiting for an opportunity to continue their attack. Murong Yanran said.

"What should I do? How is this good, I said that you should not go to the yamen in the future, and it is better to hide at home for a while. Xiao Nier was so frightened that she clenched her hands, she was really scared.

"It's okay, it's not like they've killed me once or twice, it's useless, otherwise they wouldn't have contacted other people to give out the money, they wouldn't want to get enough money and hire other higher-level killers, right?" Besides, it suddenly occurred to me as he spoke.

"Yes, it's not impossible, although they can be regarded as top-level assassins, but there are people in the world, maybe there are more powerful than them, but the price is too high, and ordinary people don't move." Murong Yanran glanced at him with great admiration.

"Not necessarily, as far as I know, the people of this Assassin Order are all money-hungry, and their only pursuit in the world is silver, the more the better. They may have done so in an attempt to recoup all the money they had lost due to failed missions. Jun offered a different opinion.

"Well, that's possible, too." Besides, he nodded.

"Can you think of catching them and killing them?" Xiao Nier clenched her fists, it was the first time she said such murderous words, usually she was the master who hid when she saw people killing chickens.

"Don't worry, as long as you follow the vine and find them, their time of death will come." Murong Yanran said.

It turned out that Murong Yanran and Xiao Jun had been looking for the whereabouts of those assassins in the city for the past few days, and they already knew Xiao Jun, so Xiao Jun couldn't get close to them, so Murong Yanran could only go out.

When they heard that the Assassins were secretly contacting the buyer, they pretended to be the buyer and asked for a bid, thinking that they would meet the seller, but unfortunately they had not heard back so far.

"They may not be fooled, they will definitely find out the real identity and background of the buyer before meeting with the buyer, and they will not fall for this kind of direct hook." Besides, shake your head.

Although this may be the only way to get close to a few Assassins, it is too difficult to achieve, and it is no problem for Assassins to be bold and careful, regardless of their martial arts, they are patient enough, and they will not make a move without absolute certainty, and they will not show their faces.

Xiao Jun said: "Although I didn't get the exact information of these assassins, I got another news, there are now five major families in the city who are in contact with the assassins, and they want to pay money to buy your head." Your head is worth a lot now. ”

"Okay, remember these families, and I will visit them one by one in the future." Moreover, a surge of murderous aura suddenly rose in his chest, which felt very similar to the desperate rush to Fengyang to rescue Zuo Ling.

"These five major families are the Zheng family, the Wang family, the Hai family, the Nan family and the Qin family, I heard that the Xing family is also preparing to contact the assassins now, and I don't know if they can reach contact in the end." Xiao Jun said one by one with his fingers.

"The Zheng family? Is it the same as the Zheng family in Fuzhou? Besides.

"It's them, it is said that they don't know what foreign aid they have received, and now they are making a comeback." Xiaojun said.

"If you don't cut the grass and don't remove the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows again. At the beginning, they should have ploughed the court and swept the caves, and chased them all the way to Fuzhou to destroy them all. Zhou Dingcheng sighed.

Hearing him say this, besides, he and Murong Yanran stopped talking, the matter here is a bit complicated, and it is also very tortuous, Xiaojun is one of the parties involved, but at this time he didn't say a word, not even an expression.
