Chapter 148: A Sweeper
Miss Shen, this time is too dangerous. If it had been a year ago, Xu An would not have believed that the petite girl in front of him had just prevented an assassination.
For a person who has been a flying fish guard for more than ten years, Xu An can imagine what level this assassination is.
The other party is menacing, replacing a county lord, lurking in the palace, just for one blow, this assassination must be successful, otherwise only death.
"This kind of assassination can only be done by the dead." Wang Shuangxi said in a deep voice.
Shen Tong nodded: "It's the dead soldiers, seven dead soldiers were dispatched, maybe there were other assistants on the road, but in the palace it was seven." One detective, three assistants, two interceptors, and one is a fake county lord, she is an assassin. ”
Xu An said: "The fake county lord is dead, what about the others, do you have a living mouth?" ”
Shen Tong said: "I overestimated the speed of my shot, and I only had time to take off one person's chin, and the rest all committed suicide." ”
Azhi smiled: "Miss Shen is humble, you can leave a living mouth with one pair of seven, which is already very powerful." ”
Shen Tong shook his head: "It can't be said that it is one against seven, when dealing with the fake county lord, there are Xiao Ren and the inner servants to help me, and I know in advance that the garden is armed, and there are palace guards, this time I could have done better, but unfortunately ......"
It's a pity she's still too young.
She was a child, and her strength and speed were too far behind.
"If it weren't for Xiao Ren, I wouldn't be the opponent of the fake county lord." Not only was she a fake county lord, but she ran all the way, and the fight with the other six dead soldiers was not smooth, so it consumed a lot of her strength, and if she hadn't been in a hurry, using that chamberlain as a shield, the assassin's blow was likely to be successful.
Moreover, there is also Xiao Ren, Xiao Ren's skills are more sophisticated than a year ago.
A year ago, Xiao Ren's martial arts opened and closed, and at a glance, he knew that he had practiced kung fu on horseback since he was a child, and it was not suitable for short-handed combat.
And the sword he stabbed at the fake county lord yesterday was fast, accurate, and ruthless, and Xiao Ren had worked hard in the past year.
"There's still a living mouth, so I should be able to ask questions." Lu Youdao.
Xu An shook his head: "Since you are a dead soldier, then don't try to pry words out of their mouths." ”
Killers kill for profit, and as long as they see the greater good, they will never sacrifice their lives.
As long as a person still has a thirst for life or money, then he is not afraid that he will not confess.
But the dead are different, the lives of the dead are not their own, every assassination of them is at the cost of their lives, a person is not even afraid of death, can you still expect to get news from their mouths?
"Wouldn't that be for nothing?" Lu You said angrily.
Shen Tong smiled: "No, as long as it is known that he is still alive, some people will be worried and afraid, and maybe they will do something like a dog jumping off the wall." ”
Everyone laughed, and Shen Tong said again: "However, the fake county lord meant the empress dowager before he died, don't you think this is a snake to add to?" It seems that he is worried that King Qin will not suspect the Empress Dowager. ”
......
In the Qin Palace, the same words came out of Xiao Ren's mouth.
Shen Tong also said these words yesterday, and King Qin was silent for a moment, and said: "With the power of the Empress Dowager and the Yang family, it is possible to raise the dead, are these dead soldiers really not their people?" ”
Xiao Ren said: "I think that the last words of the fake county lord seem to be deliberately said, so that we can believe that this is the handiwork of the empress dowager." ”
At this point, he agreed with Shen Tong's statement.
Zhou Zheng on the side said: "This was originally the handiwork of the Empress Dowager, she was sent by the Empress Dowager, and it is not okay to rely on others for this matter." When she was dying, there was no need for her to carry the Empress Dowager out of such an important few words, she could not say anything. ”
King Qin looked at a Qingdao man and asked, "Sir, what do you think?" ”
Yesterday, a Qingdao man was not in the palace, he had not seen Shen Tong, but from everyone's accounts, he already knew something about this matter, his eyes swept to Xiao Ren, and asked, "Seven young people, can you invite that little friend of yours to come to the palace again?" ”
Xiao Ren frowned, what does this fake old way mean? What little friend, doesn't Shen Tong have a name?
"Her name is Shen Tong." Xiao Ren said coldly.
A Qingdao man smiled: "It's a mistake in the poor road, the poor road wants to see this Shen girl, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
Now everyone is discussing the matter of the assassins, but the Qingdao people want to see Shen Tong, Xiao Ren feels that this fake old way is getting more and more annoying, he pretends not to hear, and is noncommittal.
A Qingdao man had no choice but to look at King Qin again, there would always be someone who could be reasonable.
King Qin smiled and said to the attendant beside him, "You go and invite Miss Shen to come to the palace to talk about it." ”
The waiter answered.
An hour later, Shen Tong came.
It's the same outer study, but there are far more people in the study today than yesterday.
In addition to Xiao Ren, Zhou Zheng and Jiang Shuangliu, there are several staff members, including a Qingdao person.
Shen Tong wore a goose yellow shirt, a pink skirt, and two pink ribbons tied to her ear-length hair.
Seeing a little girl doll walking in, several staff members were all taken aback.
They already knew that this Miss Shen was a little girl, but they didn't expect it to be so small.
Yiqingdao frowned, looked Shen Tong up and down, the corners of his mouth moved, and he didn't say anything after all.
He said to his apprentice Lang Yue, who was standing beside him, "You go out." ”
Obviously, what we are going to talk about now is not to be heard by others.
Seeing Lang Yue go out, the two chamberlains who were originally standing on the side also consciously retreated.
Lang Yue was only ten years old, he looked at Shen Tong curiously, this Shen girl was about the same age as him.
Shen Tong gave King Qin a salute and sat down on the side.
King Qin said: "Mr. Yiqing, this is Miss Shen, this king was attacked yesterday, thanks to Miss Shen's rescue." ”
A Qingdao man bowed slightly, his eyes wandered on Shen Tong's face, and several other staff members had also seen Shen Tong one by one.
After everyone sat down, King Qin said, "Miss Shen, yesterday you mentioned to this king that these assassins should have other plans, how did Miss Shen deduce it?" ”
Several staff members looked at each other, what's the matter? King Qin is too polite to this Shen girl, even if she has a life-saving grace for the prince, she is just a little girl who has not left her head yet.
A staff member quietly looked at the face of a Qingdao man, but when he saw a Qingdao man staring at Shen Tong, the staff member was taken aback, isn't it, a fake Taoist priest who appreciates himself feels pressure?
Shen Tong was talking: "If these people are the Empress Dowager's people, then shouldn't they defend the Empress Dowager even more?" They are dead soldiers, and they are not cats and dogs sent casually, mentioning that the Empress Dowager committed suicide again, this is to push everything on the Empress Dowager, Lord Wang, they want to exacerbate the contradiction between you and the Empress Dowager. ”
The staff sighed, where did this little girl come from, I don't know the severity, and just casually said the contradiction between the prince and the queen mother?
Isn't that something that can only be understood but not spoken?
