The day after Gu Panxi obtained the letter of repentance from the empress, Shi Youxing was escorted to exile by a small team of twenty officers and soldiers.

The person in charge of leading the team to supervise this exile is the former head catcher of the Yamen of Le'an Mansion, and the current third-class imperial guard, Wang Xi.

Because of his great contribution to the crimes committed during the investigation, he was rewarded by Shi Qianzheng for being "shrewd, sensitive, and upright". For this reason, Shi Wenzheng specially transferred him to the palace and received a third-class imperial guard envoy of the fifth grade, which was equivalent to a ten-level promotion from the head catcher who did not enter the stream. At the same time, Shi Wenzheng assigned the first-class errand of escorting Shi Youxing to Wang Xi. Clear-eyed people secretly sighed that Wang Xi is so progressive, and the future is absolutely limitless.

But Wang Xi knows that he is suffering. He knew very well that the reason why he was able to get such a heavy responsibility was because he was shouldering a difficult errand that defied the world's condemnation - suppressing the "rebellion" that was carried out from time to time.

Although Wang Xi didn't know the inside story, he understood better than anyone what this suppression meant, and even more so than anyone else, what kind of rebellion the so-called "rebellion" was carried out from time to time.

Shi Wenzheng wanted to borrow Wang Xi as a knife in his hand, and in the name of the righteousness of the Qing monarch, the blade was always in his hand. But righteousness is righteousness, and sometimes there is a line that is deeply supported by the clan, even if you are now exiled and lose the favor of Shi Zheng, Liu Boyong is also inexplicably placed under house arrest in Le'an Mansion, and the attitude of the clan still does not change. Once Wang Xi kills Shi Youxing, he will definitely be retaliated by the clan's madness.

When the time comes, will Shi Qianzheng really protect him as a small third-class guard?

From time to time, Wang Xi will die, and Wang Xi will not live.

Originally, Wang Xi really thought that he had embarked on a dead end, and several times, he had the idea of escaping, but the appearance of an unexpected person made his attitude change 180 degrees, and he resolutely agreed to Shi Wenzheng's assignment, and as a third-class guard, he escorted the exiled Shi Youlai majestically.

This person is none other than Gu Panxi.

On the way to exile, in the mountains and forests.

Wang Xi glanced at the other 19 officers and soldiers around him, and they all knew it, and as soon as they gave up their hands, they quickly retreated into the distance, not only to avoid what was going to happen next, but also to help Wang Xi let off steam, to ensure that his "suppression and rebellion" would not be seen by irrelevant people, and go back to Le'an Mansion to "reverse black and white".

Wang Xi calmly pulled out the sword in his hand, looked coldly at Shi Youxing, who was in the cloak and his hands were chained, and said calmly: "Four princes, there are some things that are really not done willingly by the lower officials, and I ask the four princes to forgive me." ”

When Shi Youxing saw Wang Xi and the other officers and soldiers' actions, of course he understood what would happen next, he was both shocked and angry, but he still managed to maintain his composure.

"Wang Xi, do you know what you will face if you kill this king? Once the wolf-like clan gets angry, the father will definitely shift the blame on you and use you as a scapegoat for the clan to vent! ”

"The lower official knows."

Every time Wang Xi said a word, he took a step closer. Shi Youxing could already see his own reflection from Wang Xi's sword.

"Wang Xi!"

Shi Youxing was a little out of control, he took two steps back tremblingly, and his body slammed against it - his shackles had already been chained to a big tree by Wang Xi's order.

Seeing that he had no way to retreat, Wang Xi was still advancing, and from time to time he couldn't help but get up hysterical, and shouted loudly: "Wang Xi! You're guilty of the following! You're killing yourself! The clan will not let you go, and then you will be like this king, and be a ghost on the road to the underworld! ”

Wang Xi didn't say anything more, shook his head, and leaned his right hand from the bottom to the top, only to see a flash of silver light in mid-air, and then blood splashed. Shi Youxing's eyes widened, and he didn't even have a chance to shout, he swallowed his breath on the spot, and his body fell to the ground softly.

After Wang Xi confirmed that he had lost his breath, he wiped the blood stains on the sword body, and then shouted loudly: "Something happened!" ”

The next morning, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty all learned such a news:

On the night of his exile, he tried to incite and bribe the officers and soldiers who were responsible for escorting him in order to escape punishment.

From time to time, he instigated and bribed a large number of officers and soldiers, including a promise that he would promise to these officers and soldiers after he ascended the throne and became emperor, and he had already committed the crime of treason, which was really a great rebellion.

Wang Xi, the leader of the team, was worried that there would be an accident, so he made a quick decision and executed Shi Youxing in the name of rebellion.

Shock in the middle of the court. The clan was furious.

Seeing that the clan blocked the imperial study, and asked Shi Qianzheng to give an explanation with tears in his eyes, everyone in the court and everyone thought that Wang Xi would be executed as a scapegoat, Shi Qianzheng took out something that made people stunned.

It was the Queen's letter of repentance. In black and white, there is also the blood guidance of the queen.

In the confession, the queen confessed to the fact that because Gu Xiang was unwilling to support Shi Youxing and unwilling to join Shi Youxing's camp, in order to crack down on dissidents and eradicate political enemies, she sent Ma Chang to set fire to the Prime Minister's Mansion and kill dozens of lives in Gu Mansion.

Of course, this is true, but Shi Qianzheng also made a small move, and in the confession book, he also cleverly added the name of Shi Youxing.

Because the gang can't form a faction, he will kill a member of the imperial court, which is a heinous crime. The clans who interceded for the queen and Shi Youxing had nothing to say, and on the same day, they immediately drew a line with the queen and Shi Youxing, and then left Le'an Mansion in a huff.

In an instant, the palace went from being full of people to its previous state of dead silence and solemnity.

Of course, Shi Wenzheng is very satisfied with this. When he received the letter of repentance, he was ecstatic.

As far as the matter is concerned, Shi Wenzheng was originally very worried, just relying on the crime of murdering Gu Panxi, he sent the queen into the cold palace and secretly killed Shi Youxing, I am afraid it will be difficult to stop the mouths of civil and military officials and clans. But as soon as this confession came out, the situation suddenly reversed, and all his actions became logical.

can so easily get rid of the slut of the queen and the evil seed of Shi Youxing, and let his shame and shame be buried in the haze of history forever, how can Shi Wenzheng not be happy?

It's a pity that Shi Wenzheng never thought that the person who secretly contributed to this matter turned out to be Gu Panxi.

When Gu Panxi secretly appeared in the imperial study, Shi Wenzheng was really stunned for a full minute, surprised, angry, resentful, admired, all kinds of complex emotions, like a wild horse on the loose, rampaging through his brain, stirring his brain into a mess.

"You're not dead."
