Chapter 235: The Wind Spreads
Since he and Xing Tianze officially became brothers, the two have been fighting hard for room to move in the cracks, and they have been playing this game of chess with the emperor for many years.
Some of the previous friction was just a prefix for a small fight, but now if there is no blood in the middle of the game, won't the prince and the emperor become a joke?
They are all high-ranking people who can even influence the direction of Xing Zhaoguo, and Wuxian knows that Xing Tianze has always had a very strong eloquence and strategy, and it is not impossible to completely replace the emperor.
It's just that the idea of the difference between monarchs and ministers is deeply ingrained in his mind, and the prince and the emperor are the thousands of people who suffer in the end, Xing Tianze has the world and can't bear the people in the dire straits.
But now that the emperor is pressing step by step, Xing Tianze finally has to raise the chips in his hand and start to fall on the chessboard.
"The official is not an ordinary person, and his death needs an account that can be seen in the past." Without a trace took out a booklet from his arms, which was exactly the same as the one Xing Tianze handed to Du Gan before, this was a copy that he had rewritten in private according to his ability to never forget.
Xing Tianze didn't ask too much about this, he knew that such a trivial matter based on the ability of no trace was not enough to worry about, as long as he wanted to, even if it was the jade seal in the Jinluan Palace, he could get it.
"You don't need to do these tricks of self-deception, such as high-sounding." Xing Tianze didn't have any expression on his face: "Since he did it to Du Lao first, it means that he didn't think about explaining it to everyone." ”
"Who to send?" After being stunned for a moment, he slowly put down the booklet in his hand and asked in a low voice.
"You personally take people on a trip, the official book is an important official position, and there must be something worth exploring in his hands." After Xing Tianze raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, he slammed the teacup on the table and smashed it into pieces......
Tao Mingxi, who woke up from his sleep, sat in the courtyard, holding his chin with both hands and looking at the snow on the ground.
Time passed little by little, and at the gate of the mansion of the official department at night, a luxurious carriage listened steadily, and then a man in his fifties slowly walked down from the carriage with the support of his subordinates.
It's just that his walking posture is crooked, if it weren't for the support of his subordinates, the man would probably have fallen to the ground a long time ago, and the strong smell of wine emanated from his body, so that people could decisively judge that he had drunk too much.
"What about people? Where did all the people at the door die? Believe it or not, sir, I'll get rid of you all tomorrow? The man yelled loudly at the official department Shangshufu, who was locked in the gate and there was no one to handle it.
He is none other than Chen Lin, the official secretary of today's Criminal Zhao Kingdom.
Many years ago, he was also a well-known talent in the capital, and he was also a champion in high school that year, thanks to the Taiwei Dai Muzhi, his career can also be said to be smooth and prosperous over the years, and he has worked in the position of the secretary for many years, so that he has accumulated a lot of wealth by nature.
Suddenly, a flying knife shot out from diagonally behind, directly hitting the subordinate next to Chen Lin, who immediately fell to the ground, blood gushing out from his wounds, staining the ground around him red.
"You dog slave drank too much? Do you know that I almost fell my master? The official Shangshu kicked the person gently, probably because he had drunk too much, and this time he staggered back several steps and almost didn't fall to the ground.
"Lord Chen is really Yaxing, he actually stayed in the Peach Blossom Building for two hours?" A dark shadow slowly walked out from the side: "Master Du was just assassinated, are you celebrating something by drinking too much?" ”
"Presumptuous, what kind of person are you, you dare to be so rude to Lord Ben." Chen Lin's body kept shaking when she said this.
The person who came slowly took off the black robe he was wearing, revealing an extremely delicate face, who else could this person be without a trace?
After Chen Lin saw the traceless appearance clearly, his whole body trembled violently, and the rich drunkenness instantly sobered up several points.
Almost the entire officials in the capital knew Wuxian because he had done something shocking back then.
Ten years ago, without a trace, he was recommended by Xing Tianze to enter the examination room, and in one fell swoop, he was the top student of the Golden Branch, and refused the emperor's reward for all official positions and money in the Jinluan Palace, and volunteered to serve as a staff member in the palace of the five princes.
If Xing Tianze has been able to fight with the emperor over the years, Wuxian will account for more than half of the credit.
"Who was I at the time, it turned out to be a traceless son, I didn't know if I had a visit late at night, why don't you go into the official's humble house and talk about it in detail?" Chen Lin politely stretched out his right hand and made a gesture of please.
"There's no need to talk in detail, I'm ordered to borrow something from Master Chen." Behind his hands, he looked at Chen Lin's face with a deep smile.
"I don't know what the fifth prince has taken a fancy to in this official mansion? I only need to send someone to give me an order, and I will send it to the palace, why bother with the Traceless Prince, you have to run in person so late. Chen Lin shook his head vigorously and shook away the drunkenness that sprouted again.
Chen Lin knew very well that the traceless was Xing Tianze's shadow, and the people who could order him in the whole world, except for the five princes, I am afraid that there would be no second person.
"Lord Chen is polite, I will borrow your net worth and life next night, and I hesitate to know when I will return it." The smile on Traceless's face suddenly stiffened, and a murderous aura flashed in his eyes.
Before the drunken Chen Lin could react, his eyes widened, and a black feather passed through his chest from behind his back and sank deep into the ground.
Then several black-clothed people climbed out of the wall of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials, and came to the deep and respectful kneeling on the ground without a trace.
One of them presented a booklet with respectful hands.
Traceless smiled, took the booklet, turned and left the place.
In the end, Chen Lin's body was found by a man who was on guard, and it only took half an hour for the assassination of the official Shangshu to spread throughout the capital.
After receiving the news, the emperor who was lying on the bed quickly turned over and stood up from in front of the dragon bed, his face full of disbelief.
"Send someone to find out who it is at once, and I will see the results before dawn." The Emperor angrily kicked the half-human-high vase beside him.
