Chapter 176: Commander Xiao Ying
Seeing that the woman had a reaction, Di Renjie hurriedly opened the medicine box, took out the needle bag, and performed the needle for the woman again, the woman's face was much more ruddy, her eyelids moved slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes!
The woman looked at everything unfamiliar in front of her and was a little frightened, but when he saw the old man in front of him clearly, his expression seemed to relax a little!
"You, are you Di Ge Lao?" The woman asked!
Di Renjie was slightly stunned and asked, "It's this pavilion!" Why, girl, do you know me? ”
The woman nodded slowly, and said in a weak voice: "Please forgive me, I am injured and can't salute!" ”
Di Renjie smiled, "It's okay, it's okay, can you tell me who you are?" Di Renjie asked!
The woman turned her head and looked around, her expression seemed to be a little hesitant, Di Renjie saw what she meant, and said to Su Jin: "Su Jin, you take them out first, and then boil a bowl of medicine for her according to my house!" ”
Su Jin understood what Di Renjie meant, called several maids over, and went out with them, leaving only Di Renjie and the injured woman in the gatehouse!
"Alright, you can talk now!" Di Renjie said softly!
The woman spoke: "Returning to the pavilion elder, below is Xiao Ying, the commander of the internal guard!" ”
Di Renjie was shocked when he heard this, he was naturally not unfamiliar with Xiao Ying's name, the highest status in the internal guard organization was the pavilion leader Qi Huang, followed by Pei Jingyan and Xiao Ying, when he heard this woman say that she was Xiao Ying, Di Renjie's heart was filled with deep unease!
"You are Xiao Ying? The Grand Commander of the Internal Guard? Di Renjie asked suspiciously!
"Don't dare to deceive the elder of the pavilion, it's under it!" Xiao Ying still said weakly!
Di Renjie looked at the woman in front of him who called herself Xiao Ying, stroked his long hair, and asked, "Commander Xiao, can you tell this pavilion what happened?" ”
Xiao Ying nodded, struggled to sit up with the pain all over her body, and said: "Elder Huige, I am no longer the commander of the internal guards now, and even now the entire internal guard regards me as an enemy, and they all want to get rid of me quickly, and the person who is chasing and killing here is no one else, it is the internal guard!" It's also sad to think about it, the people I have cultivated by me, in the end, I almost died at their hands! ”
Di Renjie was slightly stunned, and then asked, "It should be the soul punisher who is chasing you, right?" ”
Xiao Ying's eyes couldn't help but show a trace of nervousness and horror, she looked at Di Renjie in confusion and asked, "Elder Ge, how do you know?" ”
Di Renjie smiled slightly and said: "As the highest-ranking general of the internal guard except for the Great Pavilion Leader, if you assign the internal guard to hunt you down, it will inevitably cause a huge commotion, but as an extremely secretive existence in the internal guard organization, it is only suitable to use them to hunt down and kill the internal guard's own people!" ”
Xiao Ying's face was full of disbelief, and she sighed with emotion: "I didn't expect Ge Lao to even know so much about the soul, no wonder so many people are not Ge Lao's opponents!" ”
Di Renjie smiled, "It's nothing, after all, this pavilion has already dealt with the internal guard's soul punishment, but this pavilion originally thought that the soul was only responsible for performing some tasks that were inconvenient for the internal guard, but I didn't expect that this soul still has this role, it can really be described as 'internal guard in the internal guard'?" So according to what you just said, you should be responsible for this soul, right? ”
Xiao Ying nodded, and said ashamedly: "Go back to the elder, what the elder said is good, this soul was created by me!" It's just that I never thought that they would be the ones who chased me so far! ”
Di Renjie sighed with emotion: "It's not surprising, Neiwei is not a humane place, let alone the most bloodthirsty killer organization in Neiwei?" Your so-called loyalty is nothing more than the fear of harsh punishment and even bloody killings, and once this situation is reversed, then they will naturally have no mercy for you, the former superior! ”
Xiao Ying's eyes unconsciously slipped two lines of tears, and said with a sad expression: "What Elder Ge said is extremely true, I have a question I want to ask Elder Ge, are our internal guards all heinous traitors and evil people in the eyes of you and some other former ministers?" ”
Di Renjie was stunned, he didn't know how to answer Xiao Ying's question, so he could only be silent!
Xiao Ying smiled bitterly, "Ge Lao has already given me the answer, but Ge Lao, I don't mind your opinion of the internal guard, but what I want to tell you is that not all of the internal guards are traitorous and evil people, I am also out of loyalty to His Majesty, so I have no hesitation in the internal guard, although I am only a woman, but I am also a woman with the ambition of serving the country loyally!" ”
After hearing this, Di Renjie couldn't help but re-examine the woman named Xiao Ying in front of him in his heart, poured a bowl of water for her, handed it to her, and asked, "Hmm! We believe what you say! So can you tell Motoku why they are chasing you? ”
Xiao Ying's eyes slipped a trace of gratitude, took the water bowl, took two sips, and said: "This has to start with an assassination mission, but Elder Ge should be no stranger to this assassination mission, that is, the murder case of Guandi Temple you encountered in Qingshan County and the murder case in Shiyi County!" ”
Di Renjie was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "Well, this pavilion knows that those murders were all committed by your soul!" ”
Xiao Ying nodded and said: "Since I know that Ge Lao bumped into these murders, I know that this will definitely not escape Ge Lao's eyes, and I also know that the revelation of the matter is just a snap of my fingers, I can't hide it, I also regarded Ge Lao as an enemy, and I was also a little disrespectful to Ge Lao in private, and I asked Ge Lao to be forgiving!" ”
Di Renjie waved his hand, laughed and said, "Hahaha! It's nothing! After all, you and this pavilion were once rivals, and it is impossible to overstate what words you use to describe your opponent, so go on! ”
Xiao Ying smiled guiltily and said: "Actually, those two people in Qingshan County and Shiyi County were ordered to be killed by Qi Huang, the leader of the Internal Guard Pavilion, at first I thought it was His Majesty's will, but later I found out that His Majesty didn't seem to know about this matter, but Qi Huang privately instructed it!" ”
Di Renjie was shocked, "Oh? Could it be that these two people have any grudges with Qi Huang, the leader of the Inner Guard Pavilion? ”
"I don't know about this, but through my investigation, I found that it seems that these two people are related to the East Palace, so I asked the Pavilion Leader Qi Huang for verification, but I didn't expect that not only did I not know the reason, but I was reprimanded by the Pavilion Leader Qi Huang!"
Di Renjie was even more surprised in his heart, he never expected that the two deceased would involve the prince, although he didn't know how those two people were involved with the prince, but once His Majesty learned about it, the prince was afraid that he would also be in danger!
Di Renjie asked: "This is just an ordinary task in the internal security organization, even if you ask the reason, it will not lead to death?" ”
Xiao Ying nodded, was silent for a while, and continued: "This is just the beginning, when I found out that the identities of these two people were suspicious, I investigated privately and found that someone in the East Palace was in contact with some hidden forces, but I don't know what the purpose of their contact is!" But I knew that this matter was very important, and I must let His Majesty know, so I played Your Majesty's secret performance, but I never expected that this secret performance did not reach Your Majesty's hands, but fell into Qi Huang's hands! ”
Di Renjie was shocked again, and said with a twisted hair: "Isn't the secret music of the internal guard directly presented to His Majesty without going through the Zhongshu Province?" How did it come into Qi Huang's hands? ”
