Chapter 417: Xu Dezu is really dead

Zhao Yan remembered that when he and Likong were imprisoned in the underground palace before, Likong had told him one thing, that is, in order to make up for the identity gap between him and Princess Bao'an, Likong once formulated a plan, that is, after capturing Xu Dezu, he would receive the power of the Yin Ming Division, and then focus on the development of the overseas power of the Yin Ming Division, and then form a certain strength, and even directly establish a country overseas, and then ask the Great Song Dynasty as a fanguo, plus the help of Zhao Yan and Princess Bao'an, it is not impossible to promote this marriage.

However, there is a premise for this plan of the void, that is, it must take over the power of the Yin and Underworld, but the Yin and Underworld Division has always been firmly in the hands of Xu Dezu, and this time his identity was exposed, and he calmly escaped by a substitute, Huang Wude's Imperial City Division had no way to take him, but now that he said that he was going to travel far away, and he wanted to come back openly to marry Princess Bao'an, which made Zhao Yan really a little unbelievable.

Seeing Zhao Yan's shocked look, he showed an indifferent smile and said: "The Yin and Netherworld Division is tightly organized, the subordinates will only obey the orders of the superiors, and in the end, everyone must obey the orders of the leader, and the position of the leader has always been held by the descendants of the Xu family. ”

"Xu Dezu had an accident?" Zhao Yan was taken aback again when he heard this, but then he asked, "But I have already discovered that the corpse in the palace is not the real Xu Dezu, am I wrong?" ”

"Hehe, the king of the county is really smart, and he can even find that the corpse is a stand-in!" Hearing Zhao Yan's words, Likong smiled and praised him, he only knew about the stand-in after the fact, but the stand-in was prepared by Xu Dezu a long time ago, and the other party not only looked very similar to him. And he also learned Xu Dezu's speech and demeanor, sometimes he couldn't even tell the people around him, let alone after someone died. It's even harder to identify.

"It's empty, don't talk about these useless things. What happened to Xu Dezu? Zhao Yan said anxiously at this time, for the character of Xu Dezu, he always had twelve points of vigilance, as long as the other party did not die, then he would not rest assured.

"Don't worry, that person won't appear again in the future!" At this time, Kong suddenly sighed, and then told Xu Dezu what happened to him, to be precise, it should actually be regarded as the plan made by Sora in order to kill Xu Dezu. The reason why he has not appeared during this period of time is mainly to implement this plan.

It turned out that since he escaped from the dungeon, he had been thinking about his future way out, but he soon found that unless he could kill Xu Dezu, he would never want to get rid of the shadow of the Yin Hades for the rest of his life, and even being forced to marry his own sister in the dungeon was very likely to happen again in the future.

In this case, Likong finally let go of the last bit of family affection for Xu Dezu, and completely regarded him as the biggest enemy in this life. It was unprecedented, but it has accumulated some strength in the past few years. For example, those monks in Xiangji Temple, but unfortunately they were discovered and slaughtered by Xu Dezu, and now there is only one empty left. It was undoubtedly more difficult to kill Xu Dezu, but fortunately, Sora still had a helper in the Netherworld, that is, the mysterious spy who helped them escape from the dungeon before.

The identity of this spy placed in the Netherworld Division is very high, and it can even be said that only under Xu Dezu, he is the number two person in the Netherworld Division, and he is very trusted by Xu Dezu, after Xu Dezu found out that they had escaped, he already knew that there were spies in the Netherworld, but he never suspected this person. even handed over the arrest of the spy to him, which shows Xu Dezu's trust in this person.

Xu Dezu knew that Zhao Yan would return to Tokyo sooner or later. At that time, his identity will definitely be revealed, so he will cheat to death first. And Xu Dezu was very cautious, after leaving the palace by fraud, he planned to go to Liao for a period of time, and by the way, he reported the news that the Great Song might do something to Western Xia to Liao, in exchange for greater benefits.

However, Xu Dezu was a little careless this time, when he left Tokyo City, it was when Huang Wude wantonly searched for the Yin Hell Division, and the entire Tokyo City was tightly sealed, in order not to reveal his identity, Xu Dezu could not go out of the city with a large number of people, so he disguised himself as an ordinary small businessman and left the capital with some goods, and only brought four subordinates disguised as men with him, among which the spy who was planted in the air happened to be among them.

After knowing the news, Sakara, who had been secretly in contact with the spy, immediately thought that this was an excellent opportunity, so after secretly discussing with the spy, he decisively formulated a risky plan, that is, after Xu Dezu and the others mixed out of the city, he took advantage of their mental relaxation to let the traitor mix the drug in their food, that is, the kind of drug used by the Yin Ming Division in the Xiangji Temple, and as a result, Xu Dezu and the others were fascinated and caught at once.

Originally, according to Kong's idea, he was going to transport Xu Dezu overseas, and then detain him on a small island, waiting for him to die slowly, but the spy thought that leaving Xu Dezu would be too troublesome, and he couldn't let the people of the Yin Hell Division follow him with all his heart, so the spy took advantage of the lack of attention and killed Xu Dezu with one sword.

"That's it...... It's as simple as that? Zhao Yan still couldn't believe it after hearing this, he really couldn't imagine that a *oss like Xu Dezu would be killed so easily, he originally thought that he would have to be entangled with the other party for several years.

"The process sounds simple, but the risks involved are unknown to me." When he heard Zhao Yan's words, he said with a wry smile, in fact, before plotting against Xu Dezu, he was ready to commit suicide if he failed, because he really didn't want to be caught by Xu Dezu again, and then forced to marry his own sister.

"That's just as well." Zhao Yan couldn't help but nod when he heard this, but then he asked with interest, "Okay, who is the person you arranged in the Netherworld Division, who can make Xu Dezu trust you so much, and can help you so much, such a helper is very rare!" ”

However, to Zhao Yan's surprise, when he heard him mention the spy, he said with a wry smile: "Speaking of the person who was placed in the Netherworld Division by me, I'm afraid she won't work for me in the future." ”

"Oh? Why is that? It won't be ......" Zhao Yan couldn't help but be very surprised when he heard this, and then he thought of another possibility, and he was also startled at the moment.

"The king of the county misunderstood, she is very good now, but the reason why she wants to help me is actually to help her, it is more like a cooperation between us, and now this cooperation has been completed, so she is also free, and now it is estimated that she has left." Sora said with a wry smile again.

"Hey, there is such a thing, it seems that this spy is also a person with a story, if there is a chance in the future, can you help me introduce it?" Zhao Yan was even more curious when he heard this.

"Haha, in fact, you don't need to be introduced, the king of the county, you should remember that when you were escorted to the underground palace, among those who went to pick you up, there was a female leader, right?" At this time, Sora laughed and asked rhetorically.

"The female leader? It seems that there is such a person. Zhao Yan also thought about it when he heard this, and sure enough, when he was escorted down from the boat by Yinniang, there were indeed several women who came to take over, and he couldn't remember the appearance of the woman in the lead, but he remembered that the other party had been holding a lantern in his hand, looking gloomy, and he couldn't even tell his age.

Seeing Zhao Yan think about it, he smiled again and said: "The woman who is the leader is actually the spy I planted in the Netherworld, and she is also my cousin, but she is different from me, she has always been working with that person, she is shrewd and capable, and many things in the Netherworld Division are managed by her, and she has won the trust of that person." ”

"It turned out to be her, but according to what you said, why did she betray Xu Dezu?" When Zhao Yan said the end, he couldn't help but raise his own questions again.

Li Kong couldn't help but sigh when he heard Zhao Yan's words, and only after a while did he speak: "Cousin, although she is capable, but after all, she is a woman, she has followed that person since she was twelve years old, and she has been working until she is almost thirty years old, but she has not yet married, which makes her cousin envious whenever she sees other women marrying, she also met her sweetheart a few years ago, and the other party does not dislike her for being old and is willing to marry her, and cousin She also feels a little tired, and wants to live the life of an ordinary woman's husband and children, but unfortunately my cousin knows, She holds the secrets of the Netherworld, and with that person's character, she would never agree to her leaving the Netherworld, so she took the initiative to find me on the condition of helping me win the leader of the Netherworld, in exchange for her freedom, which I naturally have no reason to refuse. ”

After listening to the empty story, Zhao Yan was also silent for a long time, but he didn't expect that the woman who had always kept a straight face was still a lover, but this is understandable, but it is a pity that Xu Dezu, who is a eunuch, could not understand this feeling at all, and finally died in the hands of his most trusted niece.

"So now that you've mastered the power of the Netherworld?" Zhao Yan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly asked again.

"Yes, after that person died, I was the only heir of the Netherworld, and with the help of my cousin, most of the strength of the Netherworld Division was also mastered by me, but after doing this, my cousin left." Sora finally mentioned his cousin again, and it can be seen that he still regrets his cousin's departure.

However, Zhao Yan showed a puzzled expression when he heard this, and immediately asked: "In that case, then why did you give Huang Wude the confidential text of the Yin Ming Division, isn't this self-harming limbs?" (To be continued)
