Chapter 242: Forcing the Palace (1)
All the personnel of Amber Villa were sent to thoroughly investigate the relevant matters of Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, and it was in full swing. At the same time, in a secret room, there were more than a dozen people dressed in black robes, each with an arrow embroidered on it, each wearing a mask, and it was impossible to see the real face.
There was silence all around, and the silence was terrible, and the sound of each other's breathing was real, and the sound of torches burning. Everyone looked at the masked man in the center with anticipation, and no one dared to speak, let alone move, so they could only wait quietly.
After a while, the man said flatly, "Ye Mengde is still alive?" ”
"Yes...... He's alive! One of them replied in a trembling and startled voice.
"Oh!" The man smiled slightly, and said softly: "I sent you more than ten people to assassinate people who were powerless, and in the end, they were safe and sound, and they also lost more than a dozen cadres." Say, "What is right for you?" ”
Although he spoke with a smile and no anger in his voice, those who knew him well knew that it was a prelude to a storm, and there was a knife in the smile. His anger never shows, maybe one moment smiling, the next second you are in a different place, elusive.
The assassination of Ye Mengde was an instruction conveyed by him and handed over to the Punishment Hall for handling, but he didn't want the matter to be done, and he also lost his soldiers. When the master of the punishment hall heard the news and received the summoning order from the door master, his heart was full of ups and downs, after all, he could not escape the responsibility, he had never failed to act before, but he didn't want to be planted in Ye Mengde's hands this time, at this moment, he wanted to kill Ye Mengde, and this time he was also involved.
Ye Mengde was originally also a hall master, as for the reason for quitting, only he knew in his heart, and the door master knew, and no one else knew what the reason was for quitting the organization. Moreover, Ye Mengde also took away a very important thing, and they received an order from the door master to kill him and snatch the things in his hands.
"The subordinates are willing to be punished!" The Master of the Punishment Hall knelt on the ground trembling and frightened, looking at the man in horror, convinced that he would surely die. The rules in the organization are strict, and failure to do so must be punished and rewarded for meritorious service.
He glanced at the Punishment Hall Master who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Get up!" Forget it this time, it's not your fault! This seat still underestimated him, and actually tracked down Ye Mengde, and also found the previous stronghold, and arrested Zhao Cheng, presumably he leaked the details. ”
"Door master, Zhao Cheng was arrested, Ye Mengde, a traitor, withdrew from the organization again, I am afraid that the situation is not good for us!"
The man nodded approvingly, and said, "I have also thought about what the Zuo Dharma Protector said, but I can't figure it out a little. If it is tortured, I am afraid that Zhao Cheng will not reveal anything at all. I believe in your loyalty, and I definitely won't betray the organization, but I don't understand how he forced him to comply. ”
The master of the Punishment Hall answered: "Door master, my subordinates sent people to the heavenly prison, but the situation is a little strange, Zhao Cheng seems to have been stimulated by something, he is confused and can't recognize the person who came, as if he has fallen into an evil spirit, the only possibility is that he has fallen into an evil spell, and he revealed it without knowing it." ”
"Sorcery? Isn't it Miao Jiang's witchcraft? The man frowned, bowed his head and pondered, "It shouldn't be possible! The people in the court are never allowed to contact them, let alone enter the capital, even the people in the rivers and lakes are afraid of them, and their whereabouts are a mystery, and it is impossible to have a chance to get acquainted! ”
"Since it fell into his hands, have you dealt with the matter that you have been handed over?"
The Punishment Hall Master hurriedly nodded and said, "It's been dealt with!" He then asked, "Door Master, how should we deal with Ye Mengde's traitor?" ”
The implication is that he will continue to send people to hunt him down, or ignore it, and he doesn't know what to do. If Zhao Gou was alarmed by his unauthorized actions, he was afraid that the consequences would be more serious. From the beginning, they existed in the dark, and Zhao Gou was in the light, still arresting the Wind Hall Master and imprisoning Ye Mengde, which shows that Zhao Gou's skills are not in vain.
The man said in a deep voice: "Ye Mengde's matter is put aside for the time being, as for the things in his hands, it shouldn't fall out." Unless he appears, there is no way to convince him. But if you want him to appear, I'm afraid there is no chance! ”
"Door master, my subordinates have received news here that someone is secretly tracking us. In addition, there is one more thing that I don't know whether to talk about or not! ”
"Could it be that Zhao Gou's kid is playing some tricks?" The man snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Hmph! It was this seat that underestimated this guy before, but this seat is not a vegetarian, so let's play a game with him and see who will kill the deer! ”
The words that the man wanted to say were stuck in his throat, and he did not dare to say them. According to the latest information, it was another force that poured in, and this force was bottomless, coming and going without a trace, and penetrating everywhere, which surprised him a little.
According to their painstaking management over the years, not to mention being one of the best, it can also be said that it is difficult to meet opponents, as long as they want to track down the people can find out the details. However, their people are helpless against this force, which is not only powerful in individual martial arts, but also mysterious in its whereabouts.
Moreover, the person who those people are tracking down is Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, that is, the external identity of the door master. Song Huizong's guess was right, according to the situation reported by Zhao Gou, and after contacting him, he guessed that the person's identity was Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu, and his own nephew.
All of the people present here are the backbone personnel of the organization, and the masters of each hall are the four halls of wind, rain, thunder and lightning, and these four halls belong to the intelligence organization, the Punishment Hall, the Merit Hall, the Renshi Hall, the Assassination Hall, and the Left and Right Protectors, among which the Renshitang is in charge of the list and identity of the organization's personnel.
"Shooting the Sun" is the name of the organization, each hall master's robe has an arrow mark, and the door master's robe is a curved bow, representing that he is the person holding the bow, they are the arrows in his hands, invincible, their stronghold is called the "Sun Shooting Altar", the specific location is only known to each hall master, and there is no fixed place, everything is arranged by the door master himself.
Only the left and right Dharma Protectors here know the true identity of the door master, and the person who speaks is the Right Dharma Protector. Since the door master didn't want to know, he didn't want to say anything more. It's not the right time to wait until everyone is gone before you decide to speak out.
After a few words of advice and an explanation of the matter, everyone left. Leaving only the left and right protectors and the man, the door of the secret room closed, and the masks of the three of them were also removed, revealing their true faces. When his mask fell, a handsome face was revealed, the man had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and his appearance was dignified, how could he look seven points similar to Zhao Xiang, the only difference was that Zhao seemed to be much rougher, while he looked polite.
This person is Zhao Bi's only son, the nephew of Song Huizong - Zhao Yougong, the king of Chu!
"Lord Wang, my subordinates have investigated and learned that someone is chasing you!" The Right Dharma Protector said respectfully.
Zhao Yougong frowned and said, "Someone is tracking me?" Could it be that kid who doesn't have any hair? ”
"According to the investigation of their subordinates, they are by no means ordinary people, they are very deeply hidden, like another force, and this force does not belong to the imperial court." The Right Protector solemnly admonished, "Lord Wang, you should be careful, I am afraid that the results will be investigated and dealt with in a few days!" ”
Zhao Yougong pondered for a long time, and also remembered that someone had appeared in the Chu Palace, and he didn't pay attention to it for a while, but now that he thinks about it, he is afraid that the entire Chu Palace's Mansion has been targeted, and these people act quickly and have a lot of training, not like people from the rivers and lakes, nor do they belong to the court, such a force that he doesn't know makes him a little dignified.
"So far, I can only go off the rails with my sword, and I can make a dangerous move!" Zhao Yougong said categorically.
The left and right Dharma protectors looked at each other and asked in unison, "Lord Wang, is it really decided?" ”
"Don't do it, there's only one way! If you wait, you don't know how many years you have to wait! Zhao Yougong said sharply, "At the beginning, Zhao Ji was mediocre, ignoring the government and politics, we waited for the opportunity to achieve great things, but now he has changed his old style, and there is Zhao Gou, I am afraid that there are many dreams at night, and only by taking dangerous moves can we complete the great cause!" ”
The left and right protectors were overjoyed, they had been waiting for this day for a long time, and finally waited for Zhao Yougong to say this, since they should do their best to assist Zhao Yougong to complete the great cause, and they only had a dangerous move, directly forcing the palace to let Zhao Ji abdicate, and Zhao Yougong ascended the throne as the emperor, this is their long-cherished wish, and finally saw a glimmer of hope.
