Chapter 155: Assassins

The appearance of the small paper scroll made Gu Luochen's Gu Bo's eyes flash slightly, and then, without hesitation, he stretched out his hand and pulled the small paper scroll out of the center of the red agate. [Ran^Text^Library] []. [774] [buy]. [com]

The things that have been kept secret by the successive generations of the Celestial Gate, no matter what it is related to, are all priceless, or...... More expensive than priceless!

Yu Li, this small paper scroll is a thing of the Heavenly Gate, and it should not be shown to people outside the Heavenly Gate, but Gu Luochen did not carry Liu Qingxin on his back, and came to see the content of this small paper scroll by himself, in his mind, Liu Qingxin is a person who he trusts as the master of the Heavenly Gate, and the person who wants to protect him, naturally, it should be regarded as a person from the Heavenly Gate, and she followed him to see the treasure of the Heavenly Gate, which is very ordinary.

The small paper scroll was carefully stretched out by Gu Luochen, opening layer after layer, and when it was completely presented in front of the two of them, it was already a beautiful picture scroll as thin as a cicada, half the size of a table.

No, it's not so much a picture scroll as a map.

Mountains, lakes, paths, and finally, in front of a cave in the middle of a green forest, marked with a red dot.

This is supposed to give people the way, so that people can go to this cave to find things according to the indication on the map, but there is no mark on the starting point, and there is no place name written on the way...... To put it mildly, looking for something on such a map is tantamount to looking for a needle in a haystack! Gu Luochen stared at the map for a long time before slowly raising his head and looking at Liu Qingxin, "Now, you're not in the mood, and I don't have the leisure to find the treasure marked on it." Just put this picture away for now, and I'll talk about it later, you woman. You must be more careful than me, so you will take it. ”

A tone of complete confession. Without the slightest intention of discussing, Gu Luochen said as he folded the map as thin as a cicada again, rolled it into the way it was when it was first taken out of the red agate, stuffed it back into the red agate, pressed it into the small token with his thumb, and stuffed it into Liu Qingxin's hand.

"This ...... Isn't this your token for the Gate of Heaven, put. Isn't it appropriate to keep it here with me? ”

Liu Qingxin is also accustomed to Gu Luochen's domineering, and when she hears him make such a self-assertion, she doesn't get angry with him, but this is said to be a very incredible token, which should be the treasure of the Heavenly Gate, and it should be handed over to an outsider like her for safekeeping...... Not to mention, whether she has the ability to protect it, it is reasonable for her to do this alone. It's a little bit of what makes her less ......

"Yes."

Gu Luochen didn't give Liu Qingxin a chance to convince him, he just looked at her superficially, and stood up from the stool. "You keep it well, I'll arrange someone to help you find out the news from Yanjing, you can sleep when you're sleepy, you don't have to stay up late and wait, it's not so fast." Born in the future, Liu Qingxin does not know this era. How terrible the dumping of the palace court would be, but she was not stupid. If you think about the stories written in the official history, you can roughly guess that at that time, there was a life-and-death competition where either you died or I lived, and the winner was the king, and the loser was the villain.

According to historical records, Ling Jun was the one who ascended the throne and succeeded to the throne, but there is no record of how Ling Jun lost, and in the end, what the result was.

The history she knows has obviously been tampered with by the "victor", just as written in the edict issued by Emperor Longqing, Zhu Lingjun, the eldest son of the emperor, died at the age of five, and there is no place in the main palace, and the concubine Zhu Lingjun inherited the unification as a ten-year-old child, with the year name Wanli.

Ling Jun said that he is fifteen this year, but he has been concealed for five years, isn't that ...... Ten years old?

10 years old......

In other words, if there is nothing wrong or missing in the history books, Emperor Longqing will die this year, and Lingjun's "two brothers above" will also become the souls of early death this year, so that he will become the most suitable person to inherit the throne!

However, sister-in-law Jiang said that after the New Year, it is only the sixth year of Longqing, and by next year, Lingjun will be sixteen, that is, the eleventh recorded in the classics, which is not the same as recorded in the history books, Emperor Longqing died when he became emperor, and Lingjun succeeded to the throne at the age of ten...... Ordinarily......

Could it be that it is a false age?

Could it be that Ling Jun told her before that he was fifteen, and he was talking about a virtual age, and what was recorded in the history books was a real age? !

Right!

It must be like this!

That way, everything is on the right track!

Emperor Longqing died in the sixth year of Longqing, and Ling Jun inherited the throne as a ten-year-old child!

One year to go!

Lingjun still has a year, no, less than a year, to get along with Emperor Longqing, to completely squeeze his "two brothers" out of Emperor Longqing's heart, let the two of them become "early deaths", clear the way for himself, and make himself the most suitable successor!

There is no support from the mother, no military power, no fiefdom......

How difficult it is!

"Fifteen years old, in the future, will you still be a child...... Here, it's about ......"

Sighing softly, Liu Qingxin moved her shoulders and stood up, she had sorted out the list of prescriptions for several days, but because she couldn't calm down, she made frequent mistakes, and had to start over and over again, without any efficiency, Yanjing's side, Ling Jun didn't know what was going on, she wrote to him and sent a plan, and I didn't know how much it could help him, "Ling Jun, what should I do to help you?" ”

Knock knock knock one by one

Outside the door, there were suddenly a few rapid knocks, and when it was nearly midnight, Liu Qingxin was slightly stunned.

At such a late hour, if Sister-in-law Jiang knocks on the door in a hurry, she will probably knock on the door and identify herself with her, in case she is frightened, Gu Luochen is the master who never knocks on the door, this is the ...... Who could it be?

"Who?"

Thinking of this, Liu got up cautiously, and while agreeing, he walked to the side of the soft couch, touched the scissors from the sewing basket, hid them in the sleeves, and put the small token that Gu Luochen had just stuffed into her hand into the purse on her waist.

She doesn't know how to do needlework, this sewing basket was used when she asked Sister-in-law Jiang to help her order books, and when she ran out, she left it in the house.

"Madame, open the door quickly, the little one was sent by the master to send a secret letter to Madame."

It was a man who spoke, and his voice was something Liu Qingxin had never heard before, hoarse and low, as if he had just exercised violently, and there was a little wheezing in his tone, "The situation in Yanjing is not good, the master ordered, let the little one take the lady and the little master, leave this place quickly, and take refuge in a safe place." ”

People called Lingjun "master".

This made Liu Qingxin vigilant all of a sudden, and the hand holding the scissors was also a little tighter.

If it is Ling Jun's person, he must be called "Third Master", not "Master", and he is a friend or foe.

Liu Qingxin is a smart woman, of course she will not expose the enemy and provoke the enemy to do it to herself when she is not able to protect herself and cannot call for help, she thought about it for a while, looked around the house again, and then had an idea.

"Something happened over there in Yanjing?! Does it matter, sir! ”

Pretending to have just come back to his senses, Liu Qingxin, who was completely frightened by this sudden "bad news", deliberately let out such an exclamation, and then, while deliberately "colliding" the table and chairs out of the sound, he replied to the person outside the door, "Oh, you, you wait, wait, I'll put on my clothes, I'll open the door for you when I'm dressed!" ”…

Gu Luochen, who had just left the Good Medical Workshop and went back to the room across the wall to explain the matter to his subordinates, how could he not understand Liu Qingxin's plea for help?

At that moment, the sword eyebrows twisted, leaving behind the group of subordinates who were waiting for his orders, and rushed out, straight to the courtyard where Liu was lighthearted.

Unexpectedly, there are still people who are not afraid of death, and dare to attack the people he Gu Luochen wants to protect.

It seems that he should really let the world know what it means to "rather provoke the emperor's anger than commit the gate of heaven"!

The killer who was hired by Ling's henchmen to capture Liu Qingxin and Xiaobao alive, thinking that his plan was successful, he didn't break into the house, and he was also a killer, he knew it very well...... What will be the end of doing it to the person who speaks to the Heavenly Gate, but under the heavy reward, there will be a brave man, and in the face of the five thousand taels of gold that Cheng Qianqian brought out, he still decided to take a risk......

With this gold in his hands, he can wash his hands in a golden basin and live a peaceful life from now on.

In order not to lick the blood from the knife in the future, this adventure is worth it!

Of course, this idea of his, at the moment when Gu Luochen's scimitar with cold light hooked his entire neck on the blade, in an instant, it fell apart, and the fear that seemed to be entangled by the unjust soul and could not break free made his whole body tremble.

He has been a killer for more than twenty years, and the number of people who died by his sword was not a thousand, but eight hundred.

But like now, the person standing behind him, who exudes this breath of death all over his body, he has really never met him, and even passing through the grave in the middle of the night, he will not feel cold on his back and shrink his whole body like now!

"I remember, I issued a notice that no one should covet this woman."

Gu Luochen slightly retracted the scimitar in his hand, and the blade cut through the skin on the killer's neck, causing the blood beads to slowly slide out, "You are doing this knowingly, do you want to ...... Deliberately going against me? ”

To go against the master of the Heavenly Gate is to be the enemy of the Heavenly Gate, such a big hat is buttoned down, is it just a loss of life, can be settled, the killer was slightly stunned, and he shook his head and denied it!

He is not the only one in the sect, if he is destroyed, he will die, but hundreds or thousands...... The brother who walked side by side with him!

He must not allow this to happen!
