Luoyang, the capital of the gods, the imperial palace.

"Your Majesty, this is definitely the work of a top killer."

"Top killer?"

"Exactly, Your Majesty, please see, the wounds on the bodies of these twenty-five internal guards are all in the throat, and the depth of the flesh is average, if it is not for the top killers, it is impossible to do this."

"Well, yes, it does." Wu Zetian nodded after observing carefully.

Twenty-five bodies of internal guards were found on the official road, and because the internal guards were involved, the local government did not dare to deal with them, so they secretly reported to Luoyang, and at the same time transported these bodies to Luoyang.

What is an internal guard?

It was Wu Zetian's cronies, and twenty-five internal guards were killed on the official road for no reason, which was equivalent to slapping Wu Zetian in the face, Wu Zetian said that he was very angry and wanted to ask in person.

The person who talked to Wu Zetian was called Zhou Jianbai, and he was Wu Zetian's personal guard, although the name "Zhou Jianbai" sounded like a man's name, but it was actually an old woman.

may be because Wu Zetian herself is a woman, so she often reuses women, such as the "female prime minister" Shangguan Wan'er, the cabinet leader of the Internal Guard Mansion Xiao Qingfang and this Zhou Jianbai.

Zhou Jianbai, like Tang Yi, is an elder of the Tang Sect, but she took refuge in Wu Zetian and helped Wu Zetian set up an internal guard, and now she is responsible for secretly protecting Wu Zetian's safety, and she is a master in the world.

"You think it's the remnants of the Tang Sect who did it?" Wu Zetian asked.

Zhou Jianbai checked the wound again, shook his head at Wu Zetian and explained: "No, to be able to do this level, at least he is also a second-rate master in the rivers and lakes, and he is good at speed, except for Tang Yi who is on the run, there is no such good player, but Tang Yi is not good at swordsmanship and swordsmanship, so it is definitely not him." ”

"If you have any other guesses, you can tell them all." Wu Zetian said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

"Among the twenty-five corpses, only the internal guard pavilion leader Peng Li's injuries are different from those of other internal guards, and the wounds are as deep as the shoulder blades, so the subordinates guess that Peng Li should have been forced to confess by the murderer, and it is very likely that he confided the information that the murderer wanted."

"Why?"

"Wound, since the murderer has been tortured to extract a confession, but Peng Li only has a major injury on his shoulder, which means that the murderer got what he wanted, otherwise there is definitely more than this wound, so his subordinates guessed that Peng Li may have leaked information."

Wu Zetian's face was ugly, all the internal guards had was confidential information of the imperial court, and once it was used by people with bad intentions, it would not be a good thing for her or the imperial court.

"Hmph, this soft bone, it's not possible, but definite." Wu Zetian said with great certainty.

"Well, why is Your Majesty so sure?" This time, Zhou Jianbai was stunned.

"The situation of the official road is described in detail in the song, twenty-four horses are concentrated in one place, and they are thirty meters away from the corpse of the guard, and all the horses have unsaddled and cut off the bridles, who do you think this is doing?" Wu Zetian asked.

"Isn't it the murderer?"

"Of course not, these twenty-four horses were obviously not frightened in any way, so the battlefield must have been far away from them in the first place."

"Is it possible that the murderer gathered the horses after killing the internal guards?"

"No, because these horses are very clean, without any scars, and there are no scattered hoof prints around them, so the internal guard must have dismounted early."

"This?" Zhou Jianbai was a little confused.

"Under what circumstances can these guards be dismounted early?" Wu Zetian looked at Zhou Jianbai and asked, she now likes this kind of appetizing feeling, which reminds her of a person.

Zhou Jianbai still didn't understand and shook his head.

"Then I'll ask another question, under what circumstances can I make you voluntarily put down the weapon in your hand?"

"Voluntary? This...... Of course...... Your Majesty, the minister understood, Your Majesty meant that the murderer had kidnapped Peng Li first, and Peng Li ordered his men to dismount, remove the saddle and cut off the bridle for his own life. ”

"So it's not possible for the murderer to get the news from him, but for sure, this soft bone, it's really damn that I trust him so much." Saying that, Wu Zetian waved his hand in disgust, and Qianniuwei next to him carried all the corpses down.

"Your Majesty is really smart." Zhou Jianbai said.

"I just learned it from a guy, it's nothing, huh...... You're good now, old fellow. ”

Wu Zetian looked up at the cloudless sky, and said to himself: "I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen, I'm afraid that the clouds in the sky will appear." ”

"Your Majesty, what did you say?"

"It's nothing, someone is coming, and Xiao Qingfang, the leader of the Inner Guard Mansion."

……

Luoyang, Zhangfu.

"Hey, this matter is because I didn't think about it, and I missed the lives of a lot of righteous people, and the Tang Sect, hey, ......"

"Elder Zhang Ge, what should we do next?"

"Jinghui, please appease those righteous people, but this time it will also affect you."

"Where is Zhang Ge Lao, I also happen to stay away from this whirlpool, learn from Di Guo Lao, and do something practical for the people of the world, how can I say that it is even more involved, but this time the internal guard was killed on the official road, I am afraid that Wu Sansi and others will take the opportunity to make trouble, and Zhang Ge Lao is afraid that he will have to put more effort into it."

"Hmm."

……

"Great, it's really good, God help me, this time the internal guard was killed, it is definitely a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

"Yes, tomorrow morning, I will play Your Majesty, please abolish Li Dan and make you your heir, so that the world will completely fall into the hands of my Wu clan."

"Good!"

"What about Peng Li?"

"This matter must have been done by the remnants of the Tang Sect."

"Yes, yes, it's what the remnants of the Tang Sect did."

……

Too womb.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, have you really decided?"

"Only in this way can you save your life, the throne, hehe, third brother, you have suffered enough outside, it's time to come back."

……

Because of Liu Sili's rebellion, 36 ministers were killed, many implicated people were exiled, and the strength of the various forces in the DPRK and China changed dramatically, and the Tang Gate was destroyed, which made this change more complete and made all the undercurrents turbulent.

And this time, the killing of 25 internal guards became the last straw that broke the camel's back, and the hidden undercurrent was about to gush out, and no one knew where it would go.

But all this has nothing to do with Huang Chong, Huang Chong went all the way north and returned to Hongzhou, where he left ten years ago.

The reason why Huang Chong returned to Hongzhou is because Pengze County is located under the rule of Hongzhou, and the Pengze County Order at this moment is Di Renjie.

If you have the opportunity, you can meet this man of God in advance.
