Chapter 785: The Same Person
Zhou Xin returned to the mansion, shocked, his clothes were messy, and he didn't know where his hat had fallen. didn't care about changing clothes, he crawled to the ground to see the sect's order.
"Uncle, uncle, something is wrong!"
Since Xiao Ren and Princess An left one after another, Zongren Ling's heart has been pinching.
Seeing that Zhou Xin was back at this time, he hurriedly withdrew from the servants beside him, closed the doors and windows again, and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong?" Don't worry, drink your saliva and speak slowly. ”
"That teacher, I mean the teacher of the Temple of Mercy and Grace, was killed! As soon as we left the imperial city, we walked only three miles away, and the people from the Jingwei camp came, not to say that the master was a Tartar spy, clamoring to carry people with a sedan chair to the Jingwei camp. Of course the nephew refused, and when he was reasoning with them, five assassins rushed out of nowhere, yes, it was five assassins, these five assassins rushed straight to the sedan chair, and Shitai was killed on the spot! ”
Zhou Xin finished speaking in one breath and poured a few sips of tea, and then he was relieved.
"Do you see that Shi Tai is dead? See it with your own eyes? "Zongren's face sank like water.
"No, no, I ...... How dare I look at it, I let the people below look at it, and they said that they had pierced five blood holes, not to mention how scary. Zhou Xin was scared when he thought about it, it was the first time in his life that he had seen murder.
Zongren Ling shook his head helplessly, he used to think that this nephew was very capable, but now he ......
People can't be compared.
Look at Xiao Ren, alas, how can this be compared!
Today, Xiao Ren not only asked him to pick up Princess An, but also asked him to cooperate in a play, when Xiao Ren said this, he intentionally or unintentionally mentioned the son of Zongren Ling, that is, the one who followed Xiao Yi and Zhang Ge to Baoding Mansion.
Does the sect dare not cooperate?
He didn't dare.
His son's life is still in the palm of someone's hand, and he must perform this play well.
Therefore, he asked his nephew Zhou Xin to do this, although Zhou Xin was kept in the dark, Zhou Xin has always acted safely.
Hehe, lo and behold, this is the nephew he thinks has always been safe.
"You go home and rest, you don't have to come here for the past two days, don't mention today's events to others, even your daughter-in-law." Zongren Ling waved his hand.
Zhou Xin nodded like pounding garlic, he was crazy and stupid to say this, this is a disaster of raiding the house and destroying the door, and the boys under him, they also have to let them shut up, it's too scary, it's really scary.
sent Zhou Xin away, and the sect ordered his grandson Zhou Wu to come in.
"You go and check it out, who knows about Zhou Xin's visit to the Temple of Mercy and Grace today, and bring all the people related to this matter to the West Cross Courtyard." Zongren Ling said.
Zongren Ling originally thought that these people would be tried well, but he didn't expect it to take less than half an hour to be tried.
Xi San, who was in charge of the sedan car, sent his son to send a letter to his aunt.
The aunt wife of Zongren Ling's mansion is Zongren Ling's cousin, Zhou, the wife of Changxing Hou.
Zhou's husband is Wang Qin, Marquis of Changxing, that is, the uncle of Ling Concubine.
Zongrenling's hands were trembling, but fortunately he found out, otherwise Xiao Ren would have found out about this matter first, and he would not have been able to get out of it.
It's still too late, it's still too late.
Zongren Ling called the two grandchildren, Zhou Wu and Zhou Ming, and he said: "You can be regarded as Xiao Qishao's acquaintance, and you will be closer in the future, at this time, you will tie up Xi San and his son, go to the Qin Prince's hidden residence in the capital, and hand over these two dog slaves who eat inside and outside to Xiao Qishao, and bring them over together with their deed of sale." By the way, I will give Xiao Qishao another sentence, just say the water spilled by the married woman. ”
Zhou Dong is still ignorant, but Zhou Wu has already understood that his grandfather is going to draw a line with the Marquis of Changxing.
If it is from the perspective of relatives, Zhou Wu doesn't know whether this is good or not;
But standing in his own interests, Zhou Wu knew that his grandfather was doing the right thing.
Hearing that Zhou Wu and Zhou Dong were coming, Xiao Ren said to Yue Yang: "Look, Tongtong's vision is so good, Zongren Ling is really a smart person. ”
After Zhou Tong returned to Baoding Mansion, he talked to Xiao Ren in detail about the incident in the Qianqing Palace that day, and specially told him that Zongren Ling was an old slippery head.
In the middle of the night, Xiao Ren walked into the secret room where Princess An was being held, and Zhang Wanqi, with a big scar, followed behind him, carrying a leather bag in his hand.
Princess An was originally a smoker, but she had already come to her senses at this time, and she sat cross-legged and closed her eyes to recuperate.
The sound of military boots stepping on the floor, from far to near, Princess An's eyelashes trembled, and she didn't move.
Xiao Ren walked up to her side and nodded at Big Scar, who opened the leather bag and took out a human head from it.
The unpleasant smell of blood came to her nose, and Princess An opened her eyes, and the first thing that caught her eye was a hideous-looking human head.
She raised her head in amazement and looked at the condescending Xiao Ren.
"Who is this?" Princess An asked.
"Your stand-in, a person in the prison of the Criminal Department who poisoned her husband's whole family of sixteen, was originally going to be beheaded after the autumn, but now it is likely that the new emperor will be amnesty after he ascends the throne, unfortunately, she did not wait for the amnesty and died for you." Xiao Ren said calmly.
"Amitabha, sins and sins." Princess An clasped her hands together and said something in her mouth.
"It seems that Princess An has already calculated that there will be such a catastrophe? I wonder if Princess An calculated that Xiao would find a stand-in for you? There was a hint of mockery in Xiao Ren's tone.
The fat on Princess An's cheeks trembled, she pursed her lips tightly, and did not speak.
Xiao Ren looked at the big scar and said, "You were present at the time, you came to describe the scene in detail to this master." ”
Big Scar stepped forward and said, "Today, the Seventh Young sent us to protect Princess An, no, it's your stand-in." The five assassins were all dressed in black, coming and going without a trace, almost in the blink of an eye, five swords pierced into the sedan chair from different directions, Shitai, you touched it, the Baihui acupoint of this human head was also stabbed from the top of the head, if it weren't for the hard human braincase, maybe it would have been pierced. Alas, don't hide it from my master, my big scar can be regarded as a murderous person, but I have only seen one person in my life with such a murderous method, and that is ......"
Before Big Scar could tell the person's name, Xiao Ren coughed dryly, interrupted him, and said, "Okay." ”
Big Scar had no choice but to swallow the word "Tong girl" into his stomach.
These Tartar soldiers have discussed more than once in private, not because of how high Miss Tong's martial arts are, not because Miss Tong is more ruthless than them, but because Miss Tong's methods of killing people are different from them. is not only different from them, but also different from Mrs. Yun, even Second Sister Jiang, who is like a wolf cub, is also different from Miss Tong.
But with the five assassins he met today, Big Scar saw the shadow of Miss Tong from them.
