Chapter 373: Assassination
Shengjing Jinluan Palace
The emperor sat there very lazily, and a few little palace maids were fanning him, looking in a good mood.
"Your Majesty, will Master Zhang let him come in at this time?"
A little eunuch cautiously walked in from outside and asked.
The emperor opened his eyes slowly, these days without An Shuangchi dangling around him, he felt that the whole person was much better than before.
"Since he's here, why don't you invite him in."
"Yes."
At this time, Zhang Liangyu also felt very puzzled.
I don't know what kind of thing it will be for the emperor to let himself come over at this tense point in time?
"Weichen see the emperor."
"Well, sit down."
As soon as the emperor finished speaking, the little eunuch in the back moved up to the alliance.
Zhang Liangyu looked at this driving and only felt a little flattered.
He didn't think he should have sat down, but under the emperor's eyes, he could only sit across from him reluctantly.
"Zhang Aiqing, as far as I know, will you always be by General An's side on this expedition?"
Zhang Liangyu was not a person with many words, and he only nodded when he heard the inquiry.
"Yes, the general still attaches great importance to me, so I will always follow him to learn."
Originally, the emperor just wanted to chat casually and see if there was any chance to get An Shuangchi's handle.
However, looking at Zhang Liangyu's appearance, he didn't seem to be able to tell himself anything.
"Zhang Aiqing, I've heard that your performance in this battle is very good, and you deserve to be commended."
Zhang Liangyu was originally a straight gut, but he didn't expect the emperor to say these twists and turns in front of him.
"Your Majesty, I am what you have to say, just say it directly."
Zhang Liangyu still directly said his innermost thoughts.
In the face of such an impolite Zhang Liangyu, instead of getting angry, the emperor smiled.
In his eyes, Zhang Liangyu has no family power, and he is very simple, but at the same time, his martial arts are very strong, and he is not stupid, so he is the best candidate for general in his heart.
"Okay, I want you to help me get rid of An Shuangchi and replace him."
The emperor no longer hid it at this time, and directly said what he thought in his heart.
Zhang Liangyu was stunned, as if he couldn't believe what his ears had heard.
An Shuangchi had just returned from a victory outside, how could the emperor treat him like this?
"Your Majesty, what do you mean by this?"
Zhang Liangyu also confirmed it again in disbelief.
"I mean, I want you to kill An Shuangchi and replace him, don't you understand?"
The Emperor said again with some impatience.
"You don't have to be curious, I heard that your skills are not below him, presumably you have been subservient to him so much, I'm afraid you are also unwilling, now I can give you such a chance, if you can do it well, then it is not impossible to become an official."
Zhang Liangyu is not a fool, so he naturally understands what he means by this, but he still didn't speak after thinking about it, after all, he really didn't know what he should be talking about now.
"Okay, you don't have to put on such an expression, I can naturally give you two or three days to think about it, you leave first, I have some things to deal with."
Zhang Liangyu nodded, stood up a little numbly, and left here.
He knew that now that the emperor was doing it to herself, she had no right to refuse, but he was not a person who valued these things outside of his body so much.
Moreover, even if he didn't care about An Shuangchi, he still cared about Mo Qing's feelings.
After thinking about it, he felt that he could only promise the emperor these things to him first, and then the power would be in his own hands, and he could do whatever he did at that time.
It also avoids putting the two of them in danger.
Thinking like this, I also feel a lot more relieved.
Here, Master Li returned to the town with the somewhat ugly girl.
The mood still has to learn to be uneasy, after all, he had already greeted An Shuangchi yesterday, and he felt that he was not such a person to provoke.
I still feel a little nervous.
"Okay, you can stay here first, and when I go to see him later, you can follow me and remember what he looks like."
Xiao Su nodded and didn't say anything more.
There seems to be a sense of imperativeness about this.
Lord Li looked at her weak look, and he really didn't think that there was much chance of winning in this matter.
After a while, he took his own people to An Shuangchi to discuss the extermination of the bandits.
Xiao Su silently followed behind these maids, but there was nothing, no one would notice her.
Master Li felt that cold sweat was flowing from his body, and every look An Shuangchi looked at him like a knife.
"My lord, that's all for the specific situation, this is the map on the mountain over there, please arrange it."
As he spoke, he lowered the map in his hand.
An Shuangchi took it into her hand with a cold face.
"In that case, you will take it with me tomorrow, right?"
Master Li didn't expect his movements to be so fast, and his face became a little pale in an instant.
Maybe he doesn't have much choice now, if he can use An Shuangchi's hands to eradicate these bandits, maybe he can still have a glimmer of life.
However, the helpless thing is that yesterday I had agreed to the intention of the big boss, and for a moment I also had a feeling of being in a dilemma and riding a tiger.
"Since the adults have said so, then I can only obey."
Mo looked at this person with a cold face, only feeling that he was very disliked in his heart.
Xiao Su was hiding in the crowd at this time, and he had already memorized the appearance of the two of them, just waiting for a suitable opportunity.
Mo gently watched him deal with all this, and only felt that he could easily exterminate these bandits tomorrow as long as he got up, so he was not very worried in his heart.
In the afternoon, he took some people to make porridge, hoping to do something for these poor people here.
At this time, he saw a young girl in shabby clothes standing not far away, and this girl had a terrifying birthmark on her face.
The whole face looks very hideous.
She just stood outside the crowd, didn't come forward, and cowered.
Mo looked at her softly, and didn't think much about it in his heart, just thinking that she was the name of the village here.
Maybe it's because of such a birthmark on his face that he stands outside so timidly and doesn't come forward.
"You guys look at this and I'll take a look."
Mo Qingrou just gave an order and left.
The girl with the birthmark on her face said that the killer that Master Li brought back from the mountain before.
At this time, there was fear in his eyes, and he looked like an ordinary girl.
But there is still no way to hide the year under my eyes.
Mo Qingrou didn't notice so much, but slowly walked in front of him.
"Are you also a villager who lives here? Why don't you go forward? ”
Xiao Su didn't speak, just lowered his head, looking very scared.
Mo Qingrou only felt that the girl in front of her looked really pitiful, so she took her hand defenselessly and walked into the courtyard where she lived temporarily.
"Your hands are so cold, come in with me and change into a few clothes."
Mo Qingsoft's voice is very gentle, but Xiao Su has lived in the cottage since he was a child, and his heart has already become very cold.
At this time, she was just approaching Mo Gentle and An Shuangchi according to her own task, and as for those so-called other emotions, they were just illusions.
"These are some of my old clothes, maybe not very good, you can put them on first."
Mo Qingrou saw that she was still indifferent, so she asked Xiao Yue beside her to take her to change clothes.
When it came out, it was much better than what it looked like just now.
"That's not bad."
Who knows, at this time, this girl knelt down.
"Girl, I know that you are a kind person, and I am really embarrassed to make such a request to you, but I really have no other way, can you please take me in?"
The girl looked so pitiful that Mo Qingrou felt a little pitiful.
"Our girl saved you, it's already a great gift, why do you still want to stay here and not leave?"
Satsuki is very wary of all strangers.
And the task that An Shuangchi gave him was not to let the girl of his family pick up any suspicious characters.
"Okay, Xiaoyue, don't say that, this girl looks pitiful, if we don't let him stay, I'm afraid she won't be able to live."
Mo said softly, and also turned out the veil he had used, and gently brought it to the girl.
"These things on your face are not what you think, it can't be anything that affects you, I have some other things, and when this time is over, I will definitely find a way to get these scars off for you."
Mo gently touched his face, and Xiao Su habitually took half a step back.
But Mo Qingrou didn't mind, but kept him by his side.
An Shuangchi naturally knew about the existence of such a person, but looking at her, she was harmless to humans and animals, and she didn't take it to heart.
In the early morning of the second day, An Shuangchi took half of his men and horses and went up the mountain first.
But the result was a big disappointment, and the people here seemed to have left long ago.
In desperation, he could only search for the time being.
