Chapter 137: Incense is long

Yes, who doesn't know Lord Xue Pingxue?

Since the opening of the Holy Dynasty, Jinyiwei and Dongchang have been behemoths accompanied by imperial power, controlling the entire government and society from top to bottom.

But for a long time, because the leader of Dongchang was the eunuch of Dongchang's palm seal, he was the domestic slave of His Majesty the Emperor.

Of course, the trust in domestic slaves is far greater than the trust in outsiders.

This is also the root of the reason why long-term eunuchs have gained power.

For the emperor, the eunuchs who grew up with them day and night, and were unable to have children, and had no offspring, were born tool people, and all their power came from the emperor himself, so of course without the emperor, they were nothing.

Since ancient times and today, it has been said that eunuchs get power, but in fact, all the power of eunuchs comes from the emperor, if the emperor doesn't want eunuchs to get power, then eunuchs can't get any power.

Even if he is as strong as nine thousand years old, the power is tilted towards the government and the opposition, and the hundred officials are flattering, like the sky, when it really needs to be solved, the emperor only needs to write a small note and hand it out, then this 9,000-year-old will also be awarded to the prime minister to welcome him and sit back and wait to be killed.

After all, in the whole world, from ancient times to the present, anyone can be an emperor, a man can, a woman can, but a eunuch can't be an emperor.

What is the emperor worried about?

This is why since the opening of the Holy Dynasty, Dongchang has always been above the Jinyi Guard.

Without him, it's just because the emperor trusts the eunuchs of Dongchang more than the commander of Jinyiwei.

But there is only one exception.

The exception to this is Xue Ping.

He is the strongest Jinyi Wei commander in the history of the Holy Dynasty, since today's Emperor Lu ascended the throne, he is the Jinyi Wei commander, such as today's Emperor Lu thirty-two years, he has been the Jinyi Wei commander for 30 years, Dongchang's palm print eunuchs have changed a few stubble, but his position has been immovable, although his official position has been rising, from the right governor of Yanjing to the governor of Dadu, and then to add a false title as the crown prince and prince, it can really be described as a very human minister, even if it is the first assistant of the cabinet, the eunuch in the palace, he also needs to bow respectfully when he sees him.

However, such a very human minister is destined to go down in the annals of history, but suddenly died violently for no reason, although Emperor Tianlu showed great grief, and gave him the most solemn Wu Mu name, but for some reason, since then, people have gone to tea and cool, and gradually no one has mentioned this Jinyi Guard commander, so that whoever he succeeded to the commander of the envoy gradually stopped attracting attention.

It seems that above the court, this name has gradually become taboo.

At this time, Xue Ling heard this name in Xue Chong's mouth.

Xue Chong listened to Sheng Junqian's words, and couldn't help but lie on the bed and smile bitterly: "I didn't expect that there are still people who remember Lord Xue now." ”

Xue Ling looked at Xue Chong, who was suppressed on the bed by the Hundred Broken Knife, and she bit her lip quietly.

I don't know him.

It's a no-no-know thing.

It doesn't make sense.

Xue Ling is twelve years old and is a hundred households in Jinyiwei, and can freely enter and leave Beizhen Fusi, because she is Xue Ping's only daughter, she has always been loved like a treasure, her father's subordinates, cronies, friends, old friends, there is no one she doesn't know.

Of course, since Xue Ping's death, those uncles and uncles who had come to visit his home in the city had never interacted with him since the first grand funeral.

seems to have forgotten that there is still Xue Ping and the existence of this daughter.

The uncles and uncles who were originally friendly in the brocade guards looked at her with more and more displeasure, as if they had seen disasters and calamities.

But she hadn't seen Xue Chong.

I had never seen Xue Chong before.

But that's not something to say right now.

"That's not the reason why you want to kill Qingyun Dao and wine monks." Xue Ling said quietly.

"Eat the king's luck, bear the king's worries." Xue Chongjing smiled quietly and looked at the sky: "The soldier dies for the confidant, and the woman is the one who pleases himself." ”

"If a man treats me as a soldier, I should repay him as a soldier."

He uttered these three sentences one after another, but the meaning was the same meaning.

"I was sent into Penglai Pavilion by Lord Xue at the age of ten, carefully cultivated, and then left the Pavilion at the age of twenty-one, and now it has been fourteen years, since the day I left the Pavilion, I have secretly joined the Jinyi Guard, and become Lord Xue's most trusted secret envoy."

"Later, when I was on a mission here, I heard the news of Lord Xue's death from afar."

"I once wanted to go back to mourn, but because of the special mission, I couldn't leave even half a step."

"And the changes that have taken place since then have made me suspicious of Lord Xue Ping's death."

"So finally one day, I found a jar of drunken red face, and went to invite the wine monk to drink, I waited for him to drink until he was half drunk, and then asked, do you know anything about Lord Xue Ping."

Xue Ling suddenly clenched his fists: "What did he say!" ”

The girl couldn't control her emotions at that moment.

Xue Chong smiled and smiled bitterly: "He said, you'd better not ask about this matter." ”

"Whoever knows who is going to die."

"I was like, what if I wanted to know?"

"He told me seriously, then I just want to die."

Xue Ling listened to Xue Chong's words, biting her lip tightly, she didn't continue to ask, because she had probably guessed something.

"It was the saint who killed him." Xue Ling said quietly, she couldn't feel the slightest cold air in her words.

"Saints don't need to kill." Xue Chong said quietly.

"What the wine monk told me at that time was that the adult knew some things that he shouldn't know and did something he shouldn't have done, so he violated the taboo of a saint."

"As for what you shouldn't know and what you shouldn't do."

"Even Lord Xue Ping, who knows this, is going to die, and we people shouldn't know about it."

Xue Chong looked at Xue Ling's eyes: "That's why I'm going to kill them." ”

"Did you do it?" Xue Ling asked.

"Of course I did it, but I didn't expect that they had already guarded me in advance, even if I did it, but I was not their opponent, and finally used means to escape desperately, and lost a trick."

"It's the Hidden Dragon Pill, right?" Huo Ying, who had been silent beside her and did not speak, said quietly at this time.

Xue Chong looked at the woman in white, and then nodded: "Yes, Qianlong Pill, the girl also knows?" ”

"It's a blessing that you're not dead." Huo Ying said quietly, and then stopped talking.

"That's why you continue to live in seclusion in Song County?" Xue Ling asked again.

"Yes." Xue Chong nodded again: "I was knocked down to the realm and seriously injured, originally such a crippled body, it is naturally good to fly away and stay incognito." ”

"But I was not willing to leave like this, so I lived in Song County, and privately spread the news about Baiyun Mountain's immortality, although the news of Tianimmortal has been circulating for decades, but only in recent years, I have more noses and eyes, and I can begin to boast of the value of Tianimmortal for people who practice martial arts, and I will secretly select those who have the best martial arts, tell them the exact location of Tianimmortal, and carry out the plan to drive the tiger and devour the wolf."

"They are entangled by the immortal sky, although they know that there are ghosts behind them, but I live in seclusion behind the scenes, no one thought that the former Jinyi Wei Qianhu, the disciples of Penglai Pavilion would be willing to fall into the broken temple in Song County and be his beggar leader with peace of mind."

"It's hidden in the city, so I'm still safe."

Xue Ling sighed: "So we are also one of the tigers you drove away?" ”

"Yes and no." Xue Chong said lightly: "You are special. ”

"Why do you say we're special?" Xue Ling asked again.

"The girl also has the jade pendant I gave you, right?" Xue Chong asked.

Xue Ling suddenly remembered, reached out and took off the jade pendant from his waist, only to see that there were two huge cracks on the warm and simple green jade.

"This green jade pendant was given to me by Lord Xue Ping when I entered Penglai Pavilion, and at that time he told me that this jade pendant was given to him by a master outside the world, which can make the wearer turn evil into good fortune, otherwise it will be extremely Tailai."

"At that time, I didn't think so, the young heart, but this jade pendant was really delicate and lovely at that time, and I wore it at any time, and when I was fourteen years old, I was playing in the mountains once, and accidentally fell off the cliff for a while, when I felt that I was going to die, but I was saved by a pine tree, and when I came back to my senses, and then took out the jade pendant, I found that there was the first crack on it."

"And the second crack was when I had a showdown with the Qingyun Dao wine monk that year, it was really a life of nine deaths, even if I took the Hidden Dragon Pill in the end, I may not be able to escape, but in the end, it was a coincidence, I coincidentally killed a bloody path, and after escaping the pursuit, the second crack appeared in this jade pendant."

"At that time, I finally determined that this jade pendant was a divine object that could make people desperate and survive disasters."

"But at that time, I thought I was dead, so I no longer carried the jade pendant with me, so as not to waste that last chance."

Xue Ling pursed her lips: "Then why give it to me?" ”

"Because you're special." Xue Chong said lightly.

He didn't say why Xue Ling was special.

But after saying so much, Xue Ling actually had some belief in his heart, and he knew.

I don't know who he is.

But he knew who he was, and he knew he didn't know he knew who he was.

Oh, yes.

The little girl may not have met her father's closest and trusted subordinate, but how could that subordinate not meet her boss's only daughter.

His words were certainly not intended to be said to anyone in this world.

But because he killed Qingyun Dao and the wine monk on his behalf, he proved his ability, and proved that the little girl who could only cry her nose at the beginning could finally stand up and take charge of herself, and even could do things that even he couldn't do.

So these words are a recognition of Xue Ling.

"I don't have anything more to say." Xue Chong said with a smile.

"You can kill me."

Xue Ling pursed his mouth and said after a while: "Let go of the knife." ”

Sheng Junqian looked at Xue Ling, and the knife did not move at all.

"Don't make me say it a second time." Xue Ling looked at Sheng Junqian and said coldly.

Sheng Junqian raised his knife and put it down.

Xue Chong regained his freedom.

Xue Ling put the two vials of blood in front of Xue Chong's bed: "I completed the agreement. ”

After saying this, Xue Ling turned around and walked towards the door, and then Sheng Junqian collected his knife and followed behind Xue Ling, and then Huo Ying.

The three of them left the ruined temple, Xue Chong looked at their backs, and looked up at Qinghui outside the door.

Then he laughed to himself.

After he laughed, he got up, grabbed the two bottles of blood with one hand, and then came to the depths of the broken temple.

He poured incense, then poured out two vials of blood and poured them on the ground, then kowtowed to the god tablet.

"Lord Xue."

He knelt on the ground and said quietly.

"Your daughter doesn't need anyone's protection anymore."

The incense stick in front of Xue Pingshen's card, the fireworks rose straight up.

……

……

In the city of Bianliang, bustling, people come and go, the sound of selling is constant, the aroma of wine is coming to the nose, on the upper floor of Qionghua in the distance, a bunch of warblers and warblers are scratching their heads on the second floor there.

Fang Bei calmly walked in the bazaar of these words, and someone quietly bumped into Fang Bei's arms, and then apologized repeatedly.

Fang Bei looked at the other party and smiled: "Just walk carefully in the future." ”

The other party nodded again and again, then hurriedly left Fangbei, walked to a clean place, and then took out a bulging money bag from his arms with a proud face: "Good a fat sheep, let me count today's harvest." ”

As he said this, he pulled his hand inside, his face changed instantly, and when he stretched out his hand, he saw that inside was a small pebble that he had picked up by the river.

The thief instantly exploded: "Poor ghost! If you don't have money, don't pretend to be poor! ”

After saying that, he turned the money bag upside down and turned it upside down, and saw that it was full of all kinds of stones, not a single silver or copper plate, but the money bag looked quite delicate, and with the idea that the thief would not go empty, he angrily stuffed the money bag into his pocket.

But as soon as he touched his pocket, the thief jumped up instantly.

"Where's my money!" He cried out.

He hurriedly rummaged through his whole body from top to bottom, and found that the change on his body, as well as the harvest of the previous half day, did not know when it was stolen cleanly, he had been in the stealing world for more than ten years, and he had never seen such a battle.

He has always stolen from others, and he has never been stolen from himself.

He stood there racking his brains, never remembering when someone had stolen it.

It wasn't until the end that there was a flash of inspiration.

He remembered the quiet and polite little brother.

He said quietly, "Just walk carefully in the future." ”

At that moment, he sat on the ground and could no longer speak.

On the other side, Fang Bei, who was still walking on the street and seemed to be aimless, walked to a stall selling sugar gourds, and looked at the various sugar gourds full of straw: "How do you sell this sugar gourd?" ”

"One for two cents, three for five cents." The old man stretched out his hand to give Fang Bei a gesture.

Fang Bei smiled and pulled out a tattered wallet from his pocket.

"So, if you buy them all, how do you sell them?"
