Chapter 436: Cutting the Grass and Eradicating the Roots
Before the spy could do it again, Gongsun Yi's sword had already slashed through his neck, and the dagger in the secret guard's hand fell to the ground with a clanging sound, and Gongsun Yi couldn't see any expression on his face.
The night had covered the alley, and the spy covered his neck with his hands, staring at Gongsun Yi with his eyes, and then his body slowly fell to the ground, his mouth was still slightly open, as if he was saying something, but he couldn't make any sound.
After the spy fell to the ground, the hand covering his neck fell weakly to his side, the spy was dyed red around him, and a smell of blood filled the air, and the secret guard behind Gongsun Yi didn't have any feeling about the scene happening in front of him.
Gongsun Yi lowered his body, half-squatted beside the secret agent, and gently reached out to touch something in the secret agent's pocket, and then he took out a silver ticket from the secret agent's pocket.
"You have to pay for food!" Gongsun Yi said this to the secret agent who was already out of breath, and then got up and walked in the direction of the restaurant where the secret agent was eating just now, and his voice sounded low in the alley. "Clean and leave no traces."
The moment the secret guard fell, Lin Shengyue's safety would not be threatened in any way, and Gongsun Yi's nervous heart became extremely calm.
At this time, the night was darker, Gongsun Yi came to the door of the restaurant, and as soon as he stepped into the restaurant, Xiao Er greeted him with a smile. "Childe, it's closed today, you can come back tomorrow!"
Xiao Er looked at the man in front of him, his eyes were firm, his appearance was handsome, and his body revealed a noble and cold domineering spirit, Xiao Er had seen all kinds of people, and the heavy nobility on Gongsun Yi made him know that the person in front of him was not an ordinary person.
Gongsun Yi saw the hesitation in Xiao Er's eyes, he didn't put Xiao Er's emotions in his eyes at all, but took out a silver ticket and put the silver ticket in Xiao Er's second hand coldly and indifferently.
"Since you've drunk, you should give money!" Gongsun Yi said as if no one was next to him and walked out of the restaurant.
Xiao Er of the restaurant took the heavy silver ticket, and a man appeared inexplicably, stuffed money into his hand, and then left indifferently, he looked at the distant figure in confusion.
Xiao Er was stunned for a long time, and when he came back to his senses, the man who suddenly appeared had disappeared from his sight, and he suddenly realized that there was a man who ate overlord wine just now, and now a mysterious man appeared, Xiao Er thought that he must be helping the man who ate overlord wine to pay, but he didn't need so much.
At this moment, he wants to return the extra silver ticket, the person has already gone away, Xiao Er thought that it must be some kind of wealthy person, he didn't care about this little money, so thinking about it, he felt a lot calmer, so he happily packed up the store and prepared to close.
Ten in the middle of the night, Gongsun Yi returned to the palace, there was a man standing in front of the door of his study, the outline of the face could be seen from a distance, Zhao Yi dealt with the residue inside the palace, and waited for Gongsun Yi to return to life, today's palace is not as lively as before, and a person is trembling in his heart.
After Zhao Yi stood outside the door for a long time, there was finally a glimmer of light in the study, and the dim lights flickered in the study, Zhao Yi immediately got up and waited for the call in the room at any time.
Gongsun Yi, who returned to the study, took off his bloodstained coat and threw it aside, and said coldly: "Come in!" ”
Zhao Yi heard a very faint voice from the study, with an icy aura, Zhao Yi was used to Gongsun Yi's voice. Without a trace of hesitation, he pushed open the door and entered the study, at this time Gongsun Yi was tracing the words, and no emotion could be seen from his face.
"You don't need to say much about the affairs in the house, you should be clear!" Gongsun Yi said very calmly, and Zhao Yi understood what he meant.
"Master, this time it is the negligence of his subordinates, there will be no next time, please punish the master!" Zhao Yi hurriedly confessed, Zhao Yi was in charge of the entry and exit of the people in the palace, and now that something went wrong, he naturally took the responsibility. Gongsun Yi didn't intend to punish him, Zhao Yi knew his ability to do things very well, and he could make mistakes no matter how big or small, which also reminded Gongsun Yi not to be careless.
"Today's things this king doesn't want to see a second time, you know how to do it, this king reminds you once." Zhao Yi realized the severity of the problem, and now it has not caused serious consequences, he is no longer able to withstand the pressure from Gongsun Yi, if Lin Shengyue is really in danger, presumably ten Zhao Yi's lives are not as good as Lin Shengyue alone.
Today's situation is getting more and more intense, how can Gongsun Yi let that group of unscrupulous people discover Lin Shengyue's existence, it is not easy for him to strategize to get to today, walking on thin ice every day, he can't tolerate a trace of mistakes.
Zhao Yi lowered his body and clenched his fists, and said calmly: "Lord Wang, the prince's side has not been ** recently." ”
"Oh?" Gongsun Yi's eyes lit up something at once.
"His men are recruiting!" After Zhao Yi got the news, he waited for Gongsun Yi to come back and see what Gongsun Yi would tell after he came back.
"It seems that he can't sit still, as long as he gets the evidence of his recruitment, it can be confirmed that he has the intention of rebellion, and the emperor may not give him face for such a bad plot." This is good news for Gongsun Yi.
"Zhao Yi, you go and order the secret guards now, let them pay attention to the prince's movements at any time, and remember not to startle the snake!" Gongsun Yi is very familiar with the crown prince, the prince is ambitious, and he has long coveted the position of the Ninth Five-Year Supreme, if the emperor lives a few more years, I am afraid that he will not be able to bear it.
"Lord Wang, my subordinates are going here!" Zhao Yi turned around and left the palace, and the emperor recently sent someone to monitor the Heshuo Palace, so Zhao Yi could only get out of the palace through the hidden secret passage.
In the room, the candlelight dimly hit Gongsun Yi's face with an indistinct expression, he knew that he was getting closer and closer to his goal, there were countless hands pushing him forward invisibly, he couldn't turn back, as soon as he turned back, it was an abyss.
In the prince's mansion, a group of people were chatting in whispers, and a man sat lazily on a chair, watching a few people chatter.
"Prince, Prince Heshuo has to be guarded against!" Someone suggested that the prince must attack Gongsun Yi, and when this thought appeared, he also remembered another voice. "By all means, the identity of Prince Heshuo is indeed dangerous to the crown prince, but he has no talent and no virtue, he is drunk all day long, and occasionally some smart deeds are just luck, so why kill them all."
The prince's advisors, everyone has their own different opinions. Someone said: "No poison is not a husband, if you want to stabilize the crown prince's throne, you must cut the grass and eradicate the roots." ”
The old ministers who have gone through two dynasties know how the current emperor sat on the throne, and if Gongsun Yi knows the cause of his father's death one day, he is afraid that the sky will change.
